How to Spot Potential Heroes

If only there were more areas that he felt the government shouldn’t “meddle” in.
The year was 2003 and President Barack Obama, then a seasoned state congressman, was running for the U.S. Senate in Illinois. A reporter can be heard asking him about his stance on abortion during a press conference in Springfield, Ill., and the future president of the United States provides an honest answer..
“I am pro-choice,” a younger Barack Obama replies.
“In all situations, including the late-term thing?” a reporter asks.
“I am pro-choice. I believe that women make responsible choices and they know better than anybody the tragedy of a difficult pregnancy and I don’t think that it’s the government’s role to meddle in that choice.”

Delayed Development: 20-Somethings Blame the Brain - WSJ.com
I know some 20 somethings that are in this state of not yet full formation. This is comforting:
Many parents of 20-somethings worry that their offspring haven't yet found a career path, gotten married or become financially independent.
These parents should chill out, experts say.
Recent research into how the brain develops suggests that people are better equipped to make major life decisions in their late 20s than earlier in the decade. The brain, once thought to be fully grown after puberty, is still evolving into its adult shape well into a person's third decade, pruning away unused connections and strengthening those that remain, scientists say.
"Until very recently, we had to make some pretty important life decisions about education and career paths, who to marry and whether to go into the military at a time when parts of our brains weren't optimal yet," says neuroscientist Jay Giedd at the National Institute of Mental Health, whose brain-imaging studies of thousands of young people have yielded many of the new insights. Postponing those decisions makes sense biologically, he says. "It's a good thing that the 20s are becoming a time for self-discovery."

Biologists, psychologists and sociologists are increasingly seeing the years between 18 to 25 as a distinct phase of human development, worthy of much more study. Melinda Beck on Lunch Break has details on Lunch Break. Photo: AP.

In Honor of Kevins's Birthday
Each number on the dial corresponds to a 7-year period of your life. By taking a standard clock mechanism and slowing it to 1/61320th of the speed of a standard timepiece, artist Betrand Planes’ Life Clock is able to tell time over an 84 year period before it makes one full rotation around the dial.
If you manage to live through a full 360-degree sweep of the year hand, you’re doing pretty darned well.

I have been concerned about this...more than you know
Our government has just purchased ten times the bullets used in the Iraq war.
They are giving them to FEMA, Homeland Security, IRS, Social Security and the Weather Bureau.
There have been jokes but I don't think this is funny. Something is seriously wrong. What if:
I'm not predicting this. I am aware of the threat government is.

There have been jokes but I don't think this is funny. Something is seriously wrong. What if:
- Everyone had to take a mark or die
- Every person in the whole of the USA had to give up their guns, all guns and ammo or die
- Every person identified by outspoken opinions as an enemy of the state dies (that would be people critical of government) I'm marked on this
- Every Person who has wealth that needs to be taken will either give it up or die
- Every Person who does not give up and move into close quarters, camps or cities die
I'm not predicting this. I am aware of the threat government is.

7. Eliminate all but Puppet governments
8. Make sure Personal Rights are subject to government
9. Prizing TRUTH?? Who's?
10. creating a world where nature rules... This never existed...
I am sad that there are people that might agree with this.
Here's how those with this Earth First Mentality put it on the monument in Georgia in the link below:

- Let all nations rule internally resolving external disputes in a world court.
- Avoid petty laws and useless officials.
- Balance personal rights with social duties.
- Prize truth — beauty — love — seeking harmony with the infinite.
- Be not a cancer on the earth — Leave room for nature — Leave room for nature.
Let him Rail Mitt
I'm just wondering. IF Romney does or does not choose to share his tax returns, what does that have to do with anything? Unemployment, Iran, Energy Cost, Drought, Racism, Abortion, the Economy, Gangs, Murder, Rape??? Does it have ANYTHING to do with tax returns? OH, wait, there's the liberal bugaboo...ignore all the REAL issues and talk about "Fairness". If I'm Romney I will give them to you the day after I'm elected President. IF I'm not, then it doesn't matter...right? Hold tight Mitt...forget them...you got him where you want him. Let him rail about nothing, you stick to the issues that get you elected.
Pedophiles want same rights as homosexuals :: Northern Colorado Gazette
Using the same tactics used by “gay” rights activists, pedophiles have begun to seek similar status arguing their desire for children is a sexual orientation no different than heterosexual or homosexuals.

There's a new religion circulating around..... It's based on a perfect God named Katar who creates a perfect universe and then creates imperfect people to live there... This God is the single parent of a son named Thyrod who is also himself who he sends down to straightened things out. Everyone gets one short lifetime
to find Thyrod and believe in him or get thrown in a tortue chamber for 100BILLION YEARS! (Wow! What a long time! Talk about cruel and usual punishment) The story ends with a few million ppl who make it and get to live in the sky in big houses with two car garages and diamonds, rubies and gold and have parties where they dance around singing praises to Katar...while trillions of other people get the torture chamber :( What an unhappy, horrible ending to a story. Isn't that a crazy religion??? Where is the love Katar??? Lol. The people of this religion hate me because I question Katar and say they made him up... They can't wait till I wind up in the tortue chamber. We will all wake up soon.
When Poor Journalism and Bad Sceince meet. Methane in Water Means Fracking....NOT
Growing up in North Dakota I saw a lot of cases of Methane in the water. Gas bubbles that would ignite. Flames from the faucets. It was normal. Decomposing something down in the well created natural gas and it burned when exposed to flame. Our cattle drank the water. The methane gassed off. Sadly, the fracking technology is blamed now for what is a natural occurrence. Hundreds of intense studies have determined that fracking is harmless to ground water....if done right.
There may have been incidences where someone did make a mistake. There are courts and lawyers for all that.
Yet, the real problem is, there is a group of people who insist that this is a big deal, they have brainwashed ignorant people by their propaganda to create this kind of drivel.
I wish those who write for a living would dig a bit deeper before they opine. But it happens all the time on TV. A mispoken bad opinon goes into the ether (unless someone gets it on you tube). That in print stays much longer.

The World OBAMA has Brought us - A Police State
The winery ordinance is Obama-esque, passed under the pretext that it protects the health, safety and welfare of the public. It forces wineries to close at 6 p.m. and prohibits sale of food -- something that goes quite safely with a taste of wine -- unless the wineries obtain special permits from the zoning administrator.
The ordinance lists prohibited winery activities such as hot air balloon rides, farmers' markets, and mini-golf, which assuredly threaten the health, safety and welfare of the public, right?
