Hogback Mtn is in Upper SC's "Dark Corner" near the western NC state line (Landrum/Tryon area). I've found nearly 30 musket balls in just walking around - either a battle site or firing range? I'm most curious as to the probable timeframe - balls do have white crusting - some are intact, some have flattened side.

The media and the government has labeled the Kurds as rebels, but they are against the better good of the Turkey people, and the Turkey government. So they are in fact terrorist, so regardless of what Iraq thinks they are. The United States should say to Turkey, we know you do not need our help. But we want the world to see that terrorist in any disguise is not tolerated, and we are here already combating terrorist so please allow us to help you. Then squeeze them between our troops and the troops in Turkey and make them stop. If we as a country that is totally against terrorist in any form, and we passively sit back while it is happening right under our troops nose. Then we must impose the very same sanctions on ourselves. We can not worry about the Iraqi governement and whether they back these so called rebels, we must do what we say we will do, not only where we can receive a political gain, but whena country and it citizens can be safe it is a must.

I am a student taking a sport law class. The topic that we have to fight for is that University of Maryland would be out of bounds to eject students who engage in profane language. The issue is that fans used profanity laced chants against a certain player. This game was televised nationally for not only the fans in attendance to hear, but all the viewers as well. University officials were hesistant to to eject the students due to their first amendment rights.

I feel it would be easier to fight for the ejection of the students, but that is not the case. Does anyone have any pointers about where I can look to get some good information regarding profanity and free speech? We are just really stuck on how we can fight this.

On the news at lunchtime the government apologises because they underestimat foreign workers in Britain the figure they gave was 800.000.00 but now find its 1.1million. Doesn't that show that you cant't rely on the figures at all? I would bet that the actual number is even higher! Manipulation and lies!!

"Congress has twice had the chance to ban waterboarding, or simulated drowning, but has twice declined to do so. In both the Detainee Treatment Act of 2005 and the Military Commissions Act of 2006, Congress only barred "cruel, inhuman or degrading" treatment. While some Members have said they believe waterboarding is banned by that language, when given the chance to say so specifically in a statute and be accountable for it, they refused. "

yet they want him to discuss classified policy in public, he can't and to condemn waterboarding which he did, said that toruture was against the contsitution, not good enough, they again speak out of both sides of their mouths for political purposes.

In polls taken in non friendly areas of the world, it is astounding the digree of support for Hillary, Obama, Al Gore, John Kerry among anti American groups.

Shouldn't that wake up the Democratic Party?

I am trying to move my cases from a small claims court proceeding to that of a federal court, and I'm trying to change the venue from one county to another due to blatant and overt racism in the present county where the cases were heard. These are the worst type of slobs I've seen in my life and they are not handling my cases properly.

I wish to appeal the decision made by a very incompetent, racist judge, and also get them removed from the present county they are in.

Please only decent, upright, and non-smart aleck answers. Don't say get an attorney because I've tried. I'm doing this on my own.

Thank you.
