Its a copper pressing of a flamming bomb with the number one on it. There are two axes and four arrows with it. It has four tabs on the back that work like the closure on a manilla envelope. I have seen these locally (north western NC) but I have never known what they are for. My only guess is that its WWII related, but Im not sure. Thanks for any help!

Obviously a strong Iowa showing would help propel him forward against his third running position between Hillary and Obama, also because he is fairly young if the Democrats would get in office he wouldn't have another chance to run for 8 years anyway.

I think it's a sad state of affairs when a 6 day stay at a hospital costs more than a the same amount of time at a 5-star hotel with a private maid, chauffer, and butler.

I believe this company is cheating people. The small cup and the medium cup that they have is I believe holds the same volume. The small cup is wide and the medium cup is tall. Howver I tested them and they hold the same volume. They are charging more for the medium even though it holds the same volume as the small. What can be done about this so they will stop cheating people?

I wanna ask your stance on organ donation after a death.


What do you think, should there be a card that you opt out of donor donation? Just now in the UK we have donor cards, meaning if we carry one we agree to our organs being used after our death to help someone who needs a transplant. But there is complications added here, because just carrying a card means nothing, your family can overturn your decision after death, so do you think there should be a new system where you opt out if you do not want your organs used after your death, so you would carry the card saying you do not wish to be a organ donor, so that means 1000's of people a year can have transplants they need unless a person opt's out, so let me know your thoughts

Can you answer yes or no, then if you like give an explination of your answer, but please include your sex and age if you could please. UK users only

Look at how many Rednecks got upset over the question. I find it kinda sad Mexican children don't have a better public school option in America. I mean really, it seems the undocumented workers should get a better education for their children after all they have dne for the America.

Congressman Waxman wants his congressional commitee to listen to and monitor what Rush, Hanniety, and others braodcast and then hold them accountable.

Doesn't this sound like 1950's McCarthism? And should your government be involved in such activities?

After all, far more people have been killed in Iraq than Darfur. And the US invasion of Iraq was a war crime; China has not directly done anything in Sudan.

But most of the time life with rear chance of moral.
Im talking about rape and murder cases.I agree they deserve being punished but my opinion first timeers deserve chances.I prefer them to get 20-30 years rather then life with out parole espicialy people who were peacful loving family guys who did one bad thing that are not dangerous to society.You are a good son,duaugher,husband,or wife you all of a sudenily killed some one in your family because you snaped or revenge and you have no criminal record thats your first offence why give them life without parole?

They are hitting at Obama for not wearing a flag pin. I don't wear a pin either, but I served in the military for 6 years. However, I don't wear my patriotism on my sleeve. I don't think it matters that I served or not, or whether I display a flag or not. I still love my country, even though I disagree strongly with much of what the government does.

The Hamas children's magazine Al-Fateh is published biweekly in London,
and is also posted online at www.al-fateh.net. It began publication in
September 2002, and its 108th issue was released in mid-September
2007.

The magazine, which features stories, poems, riddles, puzzles, etc.,
includes incitement to jihad and martyrdom and glorification of terrorist
operations and of their planners and perpetrators, as well as
characterizations of Jews as "murderers of the prophets" and laudatory
descriptions of parents who encourage their sons to kill Jews. In each issue, a
regular feature titled "The Story of a Martyr" presents the "heroic
deeds" of a mujahid from one of the organizations who died in a suicide
operation (including operations against civilians) or who was killed by
the IDF.

OK you want to make peace with Islam and they want to take your head.

OK. You can currently buy crude oil futures contracts expiring in January 2010 for $71.92. Since, by then, the new Democratic administration will have exposed the Republican-backed scheme allowing oil companies to prop up their own futures prices, oil will be trading at about $20/barrel again. So buy the put options and pocket $50 bucks per contract! I swear, if I had any extra money I'd do it (though I might buy the 2011 or 2012 contracts. Us Dems ain't that smart you know. Might take the new administration a few years to figure out the obvious).

Are we too eager to swallow the information given to us by our government?

Considering the number of scandals and illegal activity in the history of our government, Should the citizens of the United States have more of a say and be able to hold our elected officials accountable for what they say or do?

How about a "Peoples Accountability Court" and have only volunteers from all walks of life to investigate and hold trials to keep our government in line? What do you think of that?
