We went to a number of eating establishments and each one did not give change. (e.g. One meal total $28.70 monies were rounded up to $29.00). Same thing happened other locations. When the waitress was asked whether or not this is company policy- we were told that she does keep change in case the customer wants it. The restaurants gain each time that they do this. I will admit that I want all of my change back including nickles, dimes,etc. If this is a policy of these restaurants I will in the future deduct that amount from my tip.The bottom line is that it is not fair to just keep a person's money, it is paramount to stealing as there is no mention that you will not receive your change.

My friend was a victim of credit card fraud. The thief stole about $500 worth of merchandise online. The IP was traced and the purchases were made at a university library in the same state that we live in. The address that the merchandise was shipped to is an abandoned house about 40 minutes away from where the thief ordered the merchandise - the house has been empty for about 5 years. Do you think there is any chance the thief can be caught?

...oil and to enrich the military industrial complex...

...Many of you would support that, wouldn't you? In spite of all the lives lost, many Republicans would still support the war, even for those reasons, wouldn't they?

Summary: observational data do not support the greenhouse models of "global warming" as something caused by humans burning fossil fuels. Rather, the data strongly suggest these models are useless.

It is much more likely that the current experience of climate change is caused by subtle variations in solar magnetic fields which impact cloud formation and thus the amount of heat the Earth gains from the sun.

Read Yahoo's summary here [from the original British Journal in which it was published.

Can you say that the US Senate was right to refuse the Kyoto treaty? And that President Bush is right to refuse to negotiate rigid standards for something that doesn't need doing? [or worse -- would simply made us all poorer while accomplishing nothing?]

Let's hear a round of applause for America -- where [this time] the politicians refused to be stampeded into ill-conceived legislation. 8-)

When voting, well more accurately deciding whom you are voting for, do you think it's best to vote for the Candidate whose values and ideas are most in line with your own, or the Candidate who is more likely to get elected?

Here’s the barebones story of how 18-year-old Mike Huckabee’s son, David, and a 17-year-old friend killed a dog when they were Boy Scouts, and got fired for it. From the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette in 1998 (as quoted in DogBlog):

[David Huckabee,] the younger son of Gov. Mike Huckabee and another teen were fired last month from jobs at a Boy Scout camp after the killing of a stray dog.[..]
So, how and why did David Huckabee (and Clayton Frady) kill the dog?
(Miller County, Arkansas) Two boy scout counselors, a 17 year old and 18 year old David litickabee [sic], the son of Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, have admitted to catching a stray dog during their summer session at Camp Pioneer in Hatfield, AR, and hanging the dog by his neck, slitting his throat and stoning him to death.
The Huckster’s son seems to be a real winner and his father tried to cover up his sick, twisted behavior — the same kind of behavior that landed former NFL star Michael Vick in prison.

Health care is a burden on business and on workers as well as those who are self employed. Why not put it in the hands of a government agency and administer it through health care agency's?
Business would no longer need to factor that into wages. Therefore they could pay higher wages. If not they would be taxed on the profits from not having to pay for health care. The Alcohol,tobacco, and firearms could pay a health care tax because they are the prime reason for emergency care and cancer. Alcohol in excess can cause liver damage.
now if people have more income and business has more cash flow this can only help us become more competitive in the world market.
France,China,England.Finland.Denmark,Germany,and Canada all have socialized medicine.
This allows their business the freedom of not dealing with it. It also gives everyone health care. In this country 50 million people have no health care because they simply can't afford it. Many are young men under 28 years of age.
