If any of you nincompoops would look at the evidence...it's a common tactic for a country to injure itself and blame it on the enemy. Then we can go get em. Common tactic, there is even a name for it. Why don't all you wonderful wise little kids tell me why NORAD didn't scramble ANY fighters to escort the hijacked planes down?? They didn't miss 1, but 3!! Anytime a commercial airline goes off course without explanation, within 10 minutes, fighter jets are supposed to escort them down. Hmmm. How convenient. Did you also know that the WTC changed owners about two months prior to the attacks? Did you also know that the buildings were worth more if destroyed than standing? Did you know that there was a flurry of activity on Wall Street prior to the attacks, and the majority of the trading was on the doomed Airlines stock? Did you know that there were multiple explosions heard inside the buildings from all kinds of witnesses? Did you know that WTC Building 7

We've found bacteria that don't require water to live. And water being the necessity for "all" life is only true on our planet, just like it's only true on our planet that gravity is 9.8 m/s^2. It's perfectly plausible that life could evolve on another planet without water. Sentient life, even. Why do I never hear scientists discuss this?

The very idea revolts me!

As people seek to sue over "copyrighted" images & the like, it is akin to releasing beasts out of Pandora's Box, & then policing the thoughts of every individual to put it back again.

How long is it, before they try to determine that you have "illegal" mental copies of movies, games, pictures, or music?

Are we really selling out to the thought police like this?
You really can't "own" a thought, can you?

For example, I saw an ad for a teacher at a baptist school where they said all applicants must be christian. I'm pretty sure that if that was a public school, or other type job, that it would be illegal. Just wanted to know if the same rule applied to a private school.

I honestly don't see the big deal about America accepting Same sex couples.
I am proud to say that (Though I am straight) I support the Same sex marriages. If it has nothing to do with you, or you yourself are not homosexual, why impose on someone else's happiness?
A lot of the arguments against this form of marriage are often based from a Biblical standing. People need to realise not only do some Americans base their faith from thr Bible, but America is a land of freedom and oportunity.
'Life. Liberty. and the pursuit of happiness.'
Are we not imposing on those three unalienable rights by forbidding people to love?

I used to joke around a lot on the web.
One time, I was talking to this "dominatrix" lady, & told her I wanted this or that, so she said she required tribute etc.

I decided, well, just this once. So, I sent "tribute" that 1 time, to be funny, actually.

Trouble is, later, she ends up telling me that she has 1 of the most powerful attorneys in her state working for her, related to her brother or something, a canine unit, + a police officer working under her.

She actually calls my house, & at first I am laughing, but she says, oh, do you think this is funny? Do you? Because I have been doing this professionally for X number of years etc.

My question is, can she really get you in trouble from paying her that 1 time? It was all a joke to me!

Her id is http://profiles.yahoo.com/mizz_alexxandra
if you want to look.

It has been several months back, but was wondering, can she do this for real?

Would really value your advice on this pls! Thanks!

Is it fair to give people random drugs tests? The chance of a false positive are very small, but is it an acceptable risk? What if it happened to you, do you think anyone would believe you?

I just got off the phone with a friend of mine. She was all excited cause she got a notification letter saying she won some random drawing and a check.

The letter said to call the agent to provide additional details on how to collect the rest of the prize.

Now the question:

She's not here legally but she has the ITIN number that the IRS provided her to report her taxes. If they ask for her social, should she use that number or is she screwed?!

Also the letter says that the prize is non-transferable. I would help her but can't do. Sucks!

Thanks! She would really appreciate this and me too!

Just moved into our first home 6 months ago. Ive befriended several neighbors and all 5 have told me to "be careful" with one particular neighbor next door to me. The man is about 50-ish, lives alone, has some mental problems (vietnam or whatever), has two cats of his own. 3 neighbors have told me he was "very strange". One neighbor warned me that the guy in question threatened to kill his teenage daughter. And another neighbor told me she has found her cat in this mans house on more than one occasion. I find that strange and so did our neighbor. This man in question has been reported to the police several times with nothing to come of it (before we moved in). Today, my wife and I were looking for our cat and I saw him run out of this mans house (actually he's a renter).

So what can I do? Would calling the cops help out? Do I put a restraining order on this man? Arent there some sort of disclosure laws when buying a house? Especially since theres a track record of this guy? Now what?

Brutal tactics by some police officers to suppress civil rights protests during the 1960s led to calls for improved standards of police conduct and training. Have new standards of conduct and training ended brutal police tactics?
