But Bosh has proven that he can lead a team. Bynum is locked in where as Bosh can leave the team by opting out of the contract.

I found some great Edwards guitars I’d like to purchase from http://www.japan-discoveries.com/ , but because there is next to no information about them on the web I am paranoid. I am resorting to using them because they have tons of models that every other outlet refuses to ship overseas… so I am very desperate!!!!
The good things:
1) They accept PAYPAL
2) They have replied to all of my inquiries quickly
3) basic clean webpage design which can be good or bad really….
4)Have a youtube channel with physical proof of their stock/twitter
5)Prices are very reasonable, yet NOT “too good to be true”
The bad:
1)Hardly any information of the site whatsoever online
should i give them a shot? what the heck should i do guys!!!!!!
Paranoid about validity of website?
I hung out with my best friend last weekend, and there was nothing wrong with her. I didn’t go to school yesterday because I have to attend my grandfather’s funeral. Today, she completely shut herself off. She didn’t hang out with our friends (Who she hangs out with, all the time), instead she hung out with this girl that she hated. We sat next to each other in class, but she didn’t say a word. I tried to ask her what’s wrong, but she totally ignored me. Then I remember her Twitter and Facebook posts about a friend that betrayed her and that she’s mad at her boyfriend. She even wrote “Oh, so you LIKE my own best friend?! oh well, you two are a PERFECT match!!!” on her Twitter. I asked her boyfriend, and he said she was jealous of me since the last time I chatted with him online. I was confused, because the last time I chatted with him I said “Rachel (my best friend) missed you. Don’t you miss her?” and he said “Of course I do! Very.” then I suggested him to give her a call then I went offline. That’s it.
What should I do? I am DEVASTATED.and I wasn’t trying to steal her boyfriend. I already has one!
Why the hell’s my best friend acting like this?

Thanks.

Is AVATAR's money making success considered controversial considering that 95% was digitally made?
A long list of professions that are used to make movies were not used for this movie.
Make-up artists, plastic modelers, tailors, hairdressers, robot mechanics, stand in for actors…
that's just a few professions in film making…there are many, many more professions that employs thousand and thousands of people for just one movie. And, even the professions that were still used for this movie only employed 25% from what a normal movie uses like the Camera People and Crane operators.
Is now the king of the "Box Office" and Hollywood is not going to ignore how a movie that only cost half of what a normal movie cost to make can make so much money and not care that millions and millions of people will be left unemployed.————————
@ Kayla– I'm not saying I personally have anything against it.
Many Hollywood stars are known for being picky and spoiled and soon directors will kick them out over a CGI actor.—————————-
@ Pete S–> This will be the only movie of it's kind that cost that much to make because it is the movie that invented the technology (inhenced it)…all that money was used to build the technology that then will be used by the tsunamy of films afterwards.

i took computing as a career and doing bca….
but yet no source for money(except education) because all the fund is given by my elder bro and father.
i have interest in computing as well as game. i am not a addicted but like to play some hardcore graphic intense games. . and i call it as my virtual world 2.
my problem is that i have a limited amount of fund for my fun. i need a good graphic card to experience some high graphic intense games and some latest 3d and high graphic intense video editing software.
if i spend all the fund on this parts than i cannot choose but to disconnect internet within a few couple of months.but if not than next 12 moths are mine.
but i cant make myself wait furthermore to play some high fps games.
its my childhood dream to play some high adrenaline making games in home.
but as you know internet is heaven of information. and it definitely helps me lot in my study and improve my knowledge and skills.
i know both are useful for myself but but what to choose ……………..please help me.
sry for my english.
.
what would you choose among these two?
I hav ea little 9 week old kitten named Bitterman who I loooove to death. When i got him at 6 weeks old his owners were feeding him meow mix for kittens( eww!) cuz they had 16 cat sand couldnt feed them all high quality stuff. I immediatley switched him over to Nutro natural choice kitten food which comes in pouches. Then i wanted to switch him to Wellness, which i did, but i have to drive sooo far out of th eway to get it when theres a petsmart 2 miles from my house. so I switched him back to Nutro natural choice for kittens and have now started adding blue buffalo dry food (spa select kitten food w/ the little life source bits in it which my kitten loves! and i use as treats)…anyways the question is is this a decent quality diet for my kitten or is it waaaaay worse than the wellness diet? I know it sounds like i switched his food alot but he has done fine no pooping problems or anything…hes a really hearty lil fellow. I just want him to be healthy without breaking the bank on gas…what do u think?
Nutro natural choice (wet) and blue bufaalo(dry), good mix?
In a video interview posted to You Tube yesterday, Southers states the the government and the TSA has to “pay attention” not to Muslim terrorists but to “anti-government, anti-abortion, survivalist types” who are “christian identity oriented,”
it is bad to be a survivor? or have a survivor mentality? and Southers is up to be the head of the TSA. Now I don’t think you should be anti-government but you do have a right to be anti-policy or disagree with some actions of govt. or some people in govt. and you have a vote that counts so vote em out!
and who the heck cares if you are anti-abortion.? Does that make you a bad person in and of itself?
now granted you will have your select few loons of all sorts christian, atheists, anyone, but that shouldn’t give you a right generalise all. there are bad apples on every tree.
And he said not to have tsa(people responsible for your transportation security)”pay attention” to “Muslim terrorists” WHAT?????? UMMM I think we should be paying attention to known terroists. Not paying attention is what allowed that last guy be able to board that plane at Amsterdam.
Sounds like a great plan Southers! What a MORON!!!!! is there anyone “paying attention” those within our govt that are ANTI-AMERICAN?????
Also has there been a “high ranking” Islamic leader that has stepped up and openly condemned terrorist actions against the world? One that would oversee a “mega mosque” or like the equivelant to a Catholic Pope or Cardinal or Arch Bishop? source?www.thereligionofpeace.com
ok several q’s in one but can anyone clear these up because I don’t see the logic…?
I’m doing a project for school, and need a person-to-person/first-hand source for it. Answer the question above if it applies. OR, I’m probably going to combine what I get here into sort of a survey. Do you worry a lot about the environment? Do you think that it’s something that is important? How far would you be willing to change your lifestyle to do something better for the environment? Thanks!
Anyone have a personal story/opinion with the WWF (Worldwide Fund for Nature)?
Her main education is in psychology and counselling as far as I can tell. So other than self-proclaimation, she doesn’t appear to have any other related training or education as far as I can see.
what are your thoughts??

I bought a used Kasparov Blade Chess Computer and the playfield (where the pieces are) must have a stuck switch or something. When the computer turns on, it says “White to play…Illegal move”. I opened it up and disconnected the playfield connector and it starts up with no problem. Once I connect the playfield again, it says the error again.
My question is: Does anyone know of a website where I can get more information on how to diagnose the playfield. Perhaps there is a diagnostic procedure to test the playfield. Any help on this will be greatly appreciated. I am well versed in Electronic repair and I am sure I can repair it. I just need to be steered to a source of information. Thanks in advance.
p.s. – I didn’t know exactly what category to put this question into. Sorry if it is not in the correct one.

What for me a difference that I have wondered about for some time now is when Im sitting in meditation and I often find myself wondering if and how long I should sit in silence focusing on my breath and when or if I should try to summon strength, power and guidance from the spirit realm…..angels, spirits, Holy Spirit, Etc)
I have had some unique manifestations on rare occasions where you know there’s a presence there in the room with you, but you can’t actually see it. So, if angels for example really exist and they are there to help, that seems a direct and powerful way to get help and guidance for your life. I also know that the mere faith in such helpful beings brings joy and hope with struggles in life although my faith in their power to help shifts from day to day and moment to moment.
So, to sit in silence or focus on help and guidance from external sources? Keep in mind that extra-dimensional beings (angels etc) can be said to be in and out of you at the same time.
What do you think about all this? Also, aren’t ether angelic beings in Buddhism? Bodhisattvas?
Buddhism & Christianity…Meditation v. Prayer?
Something I’ve found interesting lately is that from news sources and internet stories cigarette laws seem to be tightening and marijuana laws seem to be loosening. For instance, around my area, it has been announced that you now cannot smoke outside of a hospital. There is no tobacco allowed at all. Same for all restaurants, some clubs, etc, etc. Now, I keep reading about marijuana dispensaries now becoming popular in many towns and such. Although most of them do seem to be strictly “medical”, I find it hard to believe only people who are prescribed this are using it. I feel that people are taking advantage of it. Not to mention that once it is accepted as legal one way (medically) it only paves the way for it to become mainstream legal for everyone. Personally I don’t enjoy being around someone stoned. I could only imagine going out and seeing more people that way. I know it sounds dramatic but it hurts me to think people must use it to be happy/feel well. Not to mention the effects these dispensaries may have on the towns/neighborhoods – crime, more drug use, etc. I thought the reason behind cigarette laws was for health reasons. Interesting enough, marijuana smoke is still carcinogenic. It does have detrimental effects to ones health. So why a doctor in their right mind would ever prescribe this to someone already ill makes no sense to me. You don’t see a doctor telling people to go smoke cigarettes to ease there tension at work. Opinions?
Cigarette laws tightening but marijuana laws loosening? Make sense?

my plan consists of eating healthier and exercising. Nothing drastic just become healthier. I am drinking a lot more water, a lot less cheese and fats, and more protein and fiber. I do not have a professional helping me. Does anyone know really good sources maybe books that can really help a beginner understand what is best to eat and excersise for weight loss. thanks.

Now there is a docket number 159329-MT-0142 , I live in montana and I can not find record of any such docket number
Question 1. Is it illegal to send out a notice like this to someone with a fake docket number?
Question 2. MY S.S. Number was visibal IN FULL through the envelope, anyone who touched this could have seen my name, address, home address AND MY SOCIAL!
Is that legal?
Question 3. I have looked to see if such a person is licenced in the state of Illinios (where they are supposed to be located) and there is no such person licensed in the state of Illinois. Is it illegal to represent yourself as an Attorney?
A while back another company had contacted me and was VERY rude and threatened me with court and jail. I spoke to a lawyer here locally and did everthing he said to do, they would NOT mail me anything only called, once I told them I did not want to recieve any more phone calls everything HAD to sent in the mail and that I needed them to show me proof of the so called debt they stopped bothering me..
so now this crooked company is at it.. P.N. Financials is the name,
Some answers to my legal questions and good advise would be great.
thanks in advanceMy apologies.. I did in fact take out the said loan, I sent a Money Order to the orginal creditor. And at that time it was late already by about 45 days. I have contacted the orginal creditor and they couldnt tell me who the people were trying to get more money out of me and they couldnt tell me if they recieved payment or not (to old had been 5 years)
I told the first idiot that tried to get money from me on this and they flat out called me a liar, they REFUSED to take a certified bank check as payment they would only take a credit card or my bank account number, that was my first red flag and thats when I called a lawyer and asked for advise.
these jokers are saying the same thing! I can wire them money, give them a credit card or give them access to my bank account.. none of which is going to happen!
Legal questions.. what is legal and whats not when collecting a debt… LONG?

WHO WON THIS EPISODE?
First Lady Michelle Obama’s White House Kitchen Garden was featured in a new special episode on January 3, 2010. The episode, called “The Super Chef Battle”, featured Iron Chef Mario Batali and Super Chef Emeril Lagasse against Iron Chef Bobby Flay and White House Executive Chef Cristeta Comerford in a battle that required the chefs to create an American meal, with the produce from the White House garden as the secret ingredient. First Lady Michelle Obama made a special appearance, welcoming the chefs to the White House, and announcing the secret ingredient. This battle was also notable as the first for which the Chairman was not present in Kitchen Stadium. Although the Chairman appeared on video, and presented a supplemental range of sustainable foods to be used in the battle, it fell to announcer Alton Brown to start the battle with the traditional “Allez Cuisine.” This battle was also the first that carried a prize: $25,000 was donated to City Meals, a New York charity similar to Meals on Wheels. In the names of the winning team.

Alright, so here is my story. Almost everyday now I talk to this girl from Germany online. We have been doing this for a while. At first it was just normal, but now we both really like each other. I am trying to get into the foreign exchange program for my senior year (I’m a junior now). I planned to get in the foreign exchange program before I even met her online. This is actually quite ironic since she just graduated from the high school I’m going to go to when I enter the foreign exchange program, and she lives in the same city I’m going to.
I’m 17 and she is 19. She has on numerous occasions called me cute, sweet, attractive, nice, etc. I have also complimented her several times. We both have so much in common too. We love to talk to each other and I am the one who convinced her to break up with her boyfriend who kept hurting her and didn’t even care about her. Please note that I am pretty sure I’m not the rebound guy. I didn’t want to do anything because I thought that online dating was a bad idea, but then my best friend started doing it.
In fact, my best friend has shown me that people can indeed fall in love if they never met in person. Also, don’t say something like “she is probably a 40 year old man”, because she isn’t (I have a friend in real life who is in the foreign exchange program and she met her when she was in Germany). She is a beautiful, intelligent young woman, and a wonderful person. Of course, when I meet her in real life once I go through the foreign exchange program, I will meet her in a public place, just to be safe. I am technically an adult under Missouri law, so it’s not illegal. We won’t be having any sex or anything (atleast not until we both decide that we are old enough). If I wait until I get to Germany my senior year, it might be too late, since she might think I have lost interest in her and find someone else. I’m horribly scared she will reject me, but I hope she won’t. I am truly in love with her and want to be with this girl.
So I plan on asking her out, but I don’t know how to go about doing so. I can’t do it in person, since there is kind of an ocean and lots of land in the way, so should I just send her a message on Facebook? Or should I send her a Facebook Chat IM? What should I say to her when I ask her? I am fully committed to this girl and know the risks and disadvantages of online dating (primarily the fact that you can’t physically be with the person most of the time). I will be going to Germany though in less than a year (probably around like August 2010, but possibly on January 3, 2011), and I will stay there for an entire semester. Please don’t say anything like “you only have two years to get with her because of 2012″, because 2012 is just a hoax and I don’t believe in stupid mass hysteria hoaxes. So what should I do and how should I go about it?I’m willing to risk the world for her. I love her.
Please, please help. I need advice on a relationship, I asked this earlier but no one replied, plz help!?

So what should I do and how should I go about it?

Some Experiments that Shook the World
Sankar Hajra
Calcutta Philosophical Forum, Salt Lake, AC -54, Sector-1, Calcutta – 700 064, INDIA
e-mail sankarhajra@yahoo.com
It is generally believed by the physicists that various experiments/demonstrations/applications – experiments
of Hahn-Strassmann, Walton-Cockroft, Fermi’s Chicago Experiment, the explosion of the Little Boy
and the Fat Man, the commercial reaction of nuclear fuel – prove i) conversion of gravitational mass into energy,
and ii) usability of Uranium and other radioactive elements as proper fuels. We argue that these assertions
have not been proved in any of those experiments/demonstarations/applications.
Introduction
To know whether a fuel is proper fuel or not is to determine
whether the fuel gives off greater amount of energy when it is
used than the energy involved in making the fuel from raw natural
materials. A huge amount of energy is obtained when Hydrogen
or thermite (a mixture of powdered Aluminium and oxide
of iron) is burned. But energy obtained from combustion of
those fuels is not greater than the energy spent to make them
from natural resources. Therefore, Hydrogen and thermite cannot
be treated as proper fuels. Electricity could be readily generated
from combustion of those fuels, but, electricity made from
those fuels must be more expensive than electricity made from
coal or petroleum. According to Einstein’s E = mc2 formula, 1
Kg of any material (preferably Uranium) will give

Can you find a review for Revolution #9 by Peter Abrahams (1993)?

2. How do we balance freedom and equality?
3How might the immigrant experience have influenced our changing ideas of freedom and equality?
4. How and why did America’s role on the international stage change from the Revolutionary war to World War I?
5. Ddi American expansion during the 19th century contradict. the core values of the U.S? Why?
Thanks for your time.
FREEDOM AND FOREIGN POLICY..?
I got this thing in the mail, basically a “blah blah blah, make thousands while sitting on your ass” kind of thing. Its inviting me and one guest to go to a free lunch at the Marriott while we listen to some pitch about “amazing money making opportunities”, as the letter puts it. Naturally, I’m skeptical. But the letter says it not a sales seminar, that you shouldn’t even bring your check book because there’s nothing to buy. They say you’ll come away with valuable information. So I went online and read some articles about it, with mixed reviews, the majority leaning towards negative. But there was one comment from a man who said he’d done vending machine sales for decades, and he said “It was NOT too good to be true. It was the laziness, ignorance, and OUTRIGHT stupidity of prospects that caused this business not to work.” And he wasn’t the only one that said it. So it sounds like this doesn’t work for most people, but it can if you’re not lazy and work hard at it. So, I’m thinking about going to the seminar (with extremely skeptical expectations) but I’m still concerned its just a scam. Is there anyone that’s done this, or at least gone to a seminar, that can tell me about it from experience?Also, the main complaint I’m hearing is that the potential profits are misrepresented.

Anyways I’m doing a practice review section of the book so it’s real easy but the math problems are things like
-56 + 60 and -4 x 12
How would I simplify those? All I can think to do with it is solve it.
ThanksSo basically if it says “simplify” but is solvable then it would be correct to solve the question?btw yes I did right 4because every single question in this “simplify” section are DEFINITLEY solvable…ok, thanks guys 
Why are they asking me to simplify this expression? Help Please?

Question about the Pro Bowl 2010?
I come equipped with facts. The Super-Bowl averages about 1 billion viewers world-wide, that is greater than the World Cup final (750,000). The Superbowl half-time shows have included: Michael Jackson, Rolling Stones, U2, the Who etc. Two of televisions top 5 highest ever rated Programs in history have been Super-bowls. I know Soccer is played in more countries than anything else but in terms of size and popularity the Super-bowl is the biggest sporting event in the world (next to the opening ceremony of the Olympics).

I am a little confused on how to pronounce the Croatian tennis player’s surname, Marin Cilic.I have heard several different pronunciations from the Australian Open commentary team.
Here are a few:
- Chilich
- Sillick
- Sillich
Does anyone know the exact pronunciation?
BTW, he is now playing Andy Murray. Do you think he’ll win?http://www.australianopen.com/en_AU/tracker/ttFrame.html?ts=1264668173523&lang=en_AU&syn=none&wh=666&mode=score&ref=www.australianopen.com/en_AU/index.html&db=false&crt=noneFirst set to Cilic.
6-3Second set to Murray.
6-4And Murray wins the next two sets.
6-4 6-2
Can anyone give me 100% proof that it is pronounced like you say it is? Atm, Totem seems to be the most convincing. But all the commentators and even the umpire says “chillitch”.
Can anyone show me some references to websites to confirm its pronunciation?
How do you pronounce Cilic?
I know that they moved in the late 80’s because they said that the other place was too small. But why didn’t they just make it bigger? And why did they turn it into a hard court? I think grass would be so much cooler.
Why are the Australian Open not played on grass anymore?
Whenever he comments on Serena Williams tennis shots ,Cliff refers as Serena ,however,Cliff comments on Li Na as these chinese women rather then using Li Na’s name at the Australian tennis open.
Obviously he still carries his South African believes that That white rules.Remember He was a member of the apartheid nation since he was borne in south Africa.Cliff Drysdale (born May 26, 1941 in Nelspruit, in the former Transvaal (now in the Mpumalanga province), South Africa) was a top-ranked professional tennis player in the 1960s and early 1970s who became a well-known tennis announcer. Espn could do better without a racist commentator.How racist can you get.?
how racist can you get,Cliff Drysdales who works for espn calling chinese women Serena’s tennis contender…?

Your opinions
who do you think is going to win tonights semi final in the australian open?? Andy Murray or Marin Cilic?
Serena is still hanging on there. Jo Wilfred Tsonga was magnificent. Murray vs Cilic? Nadal’s outSundi you are not bitter are you?
Any predictions for the Australian Open?
After I read off the stats, you can probably guess who it is, but i’ve always felt he’s a Hall Of Famer, but he is still active.
1 Grand Slam title(2003 U.S. Open)
4 other Grand Slam finals(2004, 2005, 2009 Wimbledon, 2006 U.S. Open)
5 other Grand Slam semifinals(2003, 2005, 2007, 2009 Australian Open, 2003 Wimbledon)
8 other Grand Slam quarterfinals(2004, 2010 Australian Open, 2007 Wimbledon, 2001, 2002, 2004, 2007, 2008 U.S. Open)
28 career singles titles.
1 Davis Cup title(2007).
He holds the following records in the Open Era:
Most games won in a Grand Slam Final(39 in the 2009 Wimbledon final).
Consecutive tiebreaks won(18 in 2007).
Fastest serve in tennis history(155 mph. 2004 Davis Cup vs Austria).
Fastest serve in Grand Slam hisotry(152 mph. 2004 U.S. Open)
He has won at least 1 title in 10 straight years. The longest active streak on tour(which can be tied by Federer this year).
He was #1 at the end of 2003.
4 Masters Series titles(2003 Montreal, 2003 & 2006 Cincinnati, 2004 Miami).
He still has work to do, but if he were to win another 7 titles(bringing his total to 35), and another Slam, does that give him entrance to Newport? I think it does.
Is this player a Hall Of Famer?
“Andy Murray has admitted he feels at home under the spotlight of important grand slam matches following his quarter-final victory over Rafael Nadal at the Australian Open on Tuesday.”
http://www.morningstaronline.co.uk/index.php/news/content/view/full/86088
“The 22-year-old dominated the world number two and defending champion in arguably the best performance of his career before Nadal was forced to retire with a knee injury trailing 6-3 7-6 (7/2) 3-0.”

“The tense standoff in America between extreme anti-abortion protesters and doctors who provide abortions has been ruptured by a judge’s ruling in Kansas that the killer of a doctor will be allowed to argue in court that he believed he was justified in trying to save unborn children.”
http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/jan/13/abortion-doctor-killer-court-defence
“Under the ruling, Scott Roeder, 51, would become the first killer of an abortion doctor in US history to be allowed to present his belief in the justification of violence to the courts. He has been charged with murder after shooting George Tiller in Wichita, Kansas in May last year.”
Is the murder of a doctor who carries about late abortions justified if you are trying to save unborn kids?

If Scott Roeder’s feeble defense works, a domestic terrorist could be out on the streets in less than five years, plus it would send the message that terrorism is okay. I’m guessing this judge is allowing it because he’s anti choice, which is scary because if the jurors are also anti choice, a terrorist will walk and more doctors will be in danger.I see some posts to report to the FBI tip line.
Why is this Kansas judge cutting a domestic terrorist some slack?
They are on every question but google shows me web sites for Rudolph Smith at Roeder trucking?Did an abortion clinic blow up? I dont remember one recently?
Who are Eric Rudolph and Scott Roeder?
As the George Tiller murder case gets under way, are you willing to unequivocally denounce the murder of Dr. Tiller? What should happen to his killer, Scott Roeder? And what is your religious affiliation?
Thanks in advance.
A question for pro-lifers….?
Scott Roeder believed Dr. Tiller, the abortionist was an imminent threat, and that Tiller’s death was justified to prevent further murders of unborn babies. Kansas law allows the use of deadly force to prevent an imminent threat to loss of life.
Did Scott Roeder commit voluntary manslaughter?
I’m thinking if we call him a Muslim we can blame Obama for him killing George Tiller.
Is there any way we can work that in? I think we can.
Can we call Scott Roeder a Muslim?

Jerry, are you sure you’re not just doing a parody? Show me the studies on atheists disliking love – don’t just claim they exist (kinda like god) No, no no LOVE is not god. god is not love. Only in your minds are they the same thing. No atheist actually hates god, although lots of us hate the idea of a celestial dictator & the genocidal character of the bible.
Um, since Christians in this country persecute atheists all the TIME & marginalize us consistently, I don’t think we’re really waiting around for xtians to be nice to us. After all, xtians include people like Fred Phelps & Jerry Falwell & Bill O’Reilly & Becky Fisher (Jesus Camp) Oh & Scott Roeder (And George Tilwell, but you’d never guess it the way most xtians characterized him)
Dude, you might wanna take a chill pill. Or drink some milk to come down a bit from the acid trip.
——————–
Top notch Christians how would you respond to this ( she’s a world know atheist’s )?
alongside other conservative folk-heroes such as Timothy McVeigh, Eric Robert Rudolph, Scott Roeder and Matthew Hale?
Holocaust Museum shooter dies. Does he deserve a place on the Mount Rushmore of the right-wing?
Scott Roeder, Paul Hill, Eric Rudolph, Clayton Waagner, James Kopp, Michael Griffin, Tim McVeigh, all christians.Except for McVeigh all the other terrorists mentioned did what they did in the name of their sky daddy.
Why don’t cons like it when I mention the fact that there are christian terrorists as well as muslim?
A terrorist wishes to strike fear into those he/she opposes. Scott Roeder wished to strike fear into physicians who perform the abortion procedure, therefore he is a terrorist. Anyone who disagrees should be monitored by the FBI and I will do my duty to report them as a patriotic citizen.

James O’Keefe for the illegal actions he was likely performing recently if supposedly the “Right wing media” is doing all it can to protect him? I keep getting told by liberals that conservatives are avoiding even reporting on this so why do I hear Glenn Beck criticizing him?
Am I hearing things or are liberals lying?
Why is Glenn Beck criticizing…?
Do Conservatives think that James O’Keefe’s methods are OK with Americans. I am not sure, but most Americans I know think that breaking the laws and committing a felony is a bad thing! Should the 31 Conservatives in the House take back their vote of approval for James O’Keefe or do they stand by this alleged felon?
Conservatives hailed the alleged FELON James O’Keefe saying this is the way journalism should be done, why?
Right wing racist James O’Keefe has been arrested for fraud wire taping a democrat senators office this is the same fraud he did to Acorn.
Fixed Fox news and 31 republican senators praised James O’Keefe as a right wing HERO for the lies that he made up about Acorn.
The only reason republicans hate Acorn is because its a black company that gets millions of black people to vote democrat.
Do white conservatives hate Acorn because its a black company?
Felony convictions only increase your stock with conservatives. The 31 Republican Senators that lauded this thug as the ‘future’ (Felonies?) of journalism with a congressional resolution will wrap themselves around this sort of criminal activity and hold it up as ‘role model’ behavior for their children along with prison tats & tramp stamps. These conservatives have a lot of walking to walk before they can credibly be talking the talk about ‘values’. Senator Vitter is the obvious target for any ‘investigation’, especially involving phones. Wonder what ‘new fraud’ this ‘toon was up to?
Afghans have the Taliban, Arabs have their Jihadists, & America has their Conservatives – the politics of felony & terrorism.
Worship or outrage from the right? My bet is their morals will shine through on this one – there will be statues erected at taxpayer expense for Mr. O’Keefe. Felons policing our national morals – the conservative way.
Will criminal record for James O’Keefe give usual boost in ‘street creeds’ among Conservatives?
Right wing racist James O’Keefe has been arrested and charged for fraud wire taping a democrat senators office.This is the same fraud he did to Acorn.
Fixed Fox news and 31 republican senators have praised James O’Keefe as a right wing HERO after the lies he made up about Acorn.But now that he going to prison for 10 years for his lies and fraud fox news won’t report now.
Conservatives need to stop believing the lies on fixed fox news and learn how to think for themselves the only reason they hate acorn is because its a black company the gets black people to vote democrat.
Should Fox News apologize to Acorn for James O’Keefe lies and fraud?
the guy was CAUGHT committing a federal crime against your very own government! how can you possibly defend him, yet you’re in favor of water-boarding certain people, without evidence of any misdoings?ooopsie…this was supposed to be in politics…
why are people on Y/A defending James O’Keefe?
They are typically radical.
O’Keefe describes himself as a “progressive radical” who follows Saul Alinsky
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_O’Keefe
“Liberals in their meetings utter bold works; they strut, grimace belligerently, and then issue a weasel-worded statement ‘which has tremendous implications, if read between the lines.’ They sit calmly, dispassionately, studying the issue; judging both sides; they sit and still sit.”
“The Radical does not sit frozen by cold objectivity. He sees injustice and strikes at it with hot passion. He is a man of decision and action. There is a saying that the Liberal is one who walks out of the room when the argument turns into a fight.”
~ Saul Alinsky, “Rules for Radicals”

There are so many “definitions” of passive aggression floating around.. share with me your definition and possible an example. One that comes to mind (that some of my peers could relate to) is if you’re in a relationship with a guy and you change your relationship status on Facebook to “in a relationship” and he keeps “forgetting” to change his… that in my opinion very passive aggressive. What do you think?
How would you define Passive Aggression?
The CEO of my company seems to think that if you link out to other sites like twitter, facebook, or some other site it will decrease your conversions because you are taking people from your site.
