i think, that if they were condemed to die, then they should take them into the room and inject them will that stuff that kills you. why wait 30 years. Charles Manson should be long gone by now. they even let him out to do a movie (the heart is deceitful, above all things). we prolly wouldn't have very many murderers, if they were condemed to die, and actually died because of their crimes, instead of old age.

My fiancee, who lives in Dhaka, mentioned to me about the President of Bangladesh declaring "emergency" a day of so ago.

What happened and what was this state of "Emergency" about...?

For that I was very worried for him because he was traveling south to Chittagong to a town of Jessore to visit some of his fisheries...I pray he and his business associates get back safely..

Now that we know that people like Brook Shields and Rush Limbaugh suffered from depression, do you think someone who recovered from it could be, say, vice president?

Or do you think the stigma from the 70's still exists?

This has happened to my cousin. She is on probation which she has paid each month and is up to date on community service. Her license is suspended but she drives like an idiot and has already been pulled over twice for speeding. Each time they give her a ticket and they just ask the passenger to drive for her (lucky bi***). She doesn't tell her PO that she has tickets. I've told her to be honest with the PO and tell her before she finds out on her own and ends up getting in to trouble. She is convinced that as long as she pays it quickly the PO won't find out. Is that true? I don't care if she goes to jail she probably deserves it for acting so immature, but her daughter is only 20 months old. I'm only worried about the baby who is so attached to her mother. BTW I live in Texas

when confronted, she backed away. In the news clip anyone could see she had the look of someone getting caught with her hand in the cookie jar. I am sure this is just the start of her special interest deals in the works.

I enlisted in the Marine Reserve recently and have a little over a month and a half before I am supposed to ship. I have several things that need to be taken care of before I leave however. A (informal) debt that needs to be paid as well as some issues with my family and things. Is there anyway to further delay my entry a few months or so?

Here is the condensed story:

Hopefully someone in this group can help me with this situation I am having. Here is the story:

In my hometown-neighborhood, there are about 40 homes. We all basically circle this large 2 square mile field that holds several families of deer, rabbits, squirrels, and various other animals. Now the person who owned he land recently died, and we were planning on buying the land from him to keep it preserved as he did. But someone, and we don't know how, got ahold of the land without our knowing and is now planning on torching the land and then putting up low-income housing to replace it. If you know of any organizations, activist groups, etc. that could help out it would be much appreciated.

I need to know also of any state laws they may be breaking. This is going on in Marianna, Florida. Please, any advice will help, and I will highly rate the best answer on this. Thanks.

I think Hillary could take out most of the right wing punditry. She's like Bruce Banner. You don't like her when she's angry -- which is often.

BOXER'S LOW BLOW
http://www.nypost.com/seven/01122007/postopinion/editorials/boxers_low_blow_editorials_.htm

If you havent heard about this, look at the link for the story the nypost has posted. It is pretty pathetic what Boxer said. Do you think she will apologize? Dont you think she should?
What is wrong with some of those Democrats? What the heck is going through their heads sometimes? And why the hell do we elect people like this? I understand many of the lie about things they stand for during the election and then just do the opposite afterwards, but why can't they be held liable for things like that. This whole political game is beyond out of hand. Our elected officials, are not helping matters. They would rather slander others with harsh words and name calling or with statements like Boxer made, then to work together and make our country and world a better place. The more this goes on the more it's obvious many of these clowns are in it purely for power and to slam Bush.

5 LAPD SWAT has grudge against 5 NAVY SEAL soldiers and vice versa because they called each other names. Now they want to kill each other. They are both armed with their own equipments and neither can call for back-up. They can use whatever force necessary to put the other party down. Who will win? How many casualties on each side and how soon will it end?
