<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><a href="http://trjohnson2009.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/whales.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-236" title="WHALES" src="http://trjohnson2009.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/whales.jpg?w=300" alt="" width="210" height="139" /></a>PETA (People for <span style="color:#ff9900;"><em><span style="color:#99cc00;">&#8216;Ethical&#8217; </span></em></span>Treatment of Animals) had put up this billboard in Florida and received some pretty &#8216;real&#8217; feedback on it!</p>
<p>What kind of message is this billboard sending out to people, especially children? <span style="color:#00cccc;">This is absolutely disgusting and offensive to ALL women, regardless of size!</span> Why isn&#8217;t there a <em><span style="color:#339999;"><span style="color:#00cccc;">&#8216;male&#8217;</span> </span></em>in the picture in a swim suit? <span style="color:#ff9900;"><em><span style="color:#99cc00;">What, there are no &#8216;male&#8217; vegetarians in the US?<br />
</span></em></span></p>
<div>
<p>If this is what they think of <span style="color:#ff9900;"><em><span style="color:#99cc00;">&#8216;women&#8217;,</span></em></span> and <em>overweight people in general</em>, I have to question just <span style="color:#00cccc;">how<em> &#8216;ethical&#8217;</em> they really are</span>! Go Vegetarian to lose weight, puh leez&#8230;..</p>
<p>I am <em>not </em>suggesting that everyone should eat meat, but not eating it is not the way to lose weight. Diet and exercise will work if it&#8217;s consistent, so will drinking lemon water! <em><span style="color:#00cccc;">&#8220;Fit for Life&#8221;</span></em> is an excellent &#8216;lifestyle&#8217; that definitely works. It&#8217;s about<em> &#8216;proper food combining.&#8217;</em></p>
<p>I have tried the &#8216;Fit for Life&#8217; lifestyle and felt and looked great, but I did eat meat. I just didn&#8217;t eat a steak with a potato, salad or coleslaw and vege&#8217;s instead &#8211; <em><span style="color:#99cc00;">no protein with a starch</span></em>, period.</p>
<p>Anyway, I have nothing against vegetarians at all, so please do not misunderstand me. I was raised on steak and potatoes, what can I say! LOL! But really, come on, this billboard is an <em><span style="color:#339999;"><strong><span style="color:#00cccc;">insult </span></strong></span><span style="color:#00cccc;">to the intelligence of all people</span> </em>for sure!</p>
<p>I wonder if they also own, or have shares in the US magazine that ET spoke of earlier tonight with a <em><span style="color:#00cccc;">beautiful whale, and very pretty, but &#8216;overweight,&#8217; black woman on the front</span></em>? That was <em>not well received</em> either! Gee, I wonder why?! Again, not a <em>&#8216;male&#8217;</em> in the shot!</p>
<p>We finally have the<span style="color:#99cc00;"> <em>&#8216;full figured&#8217;</em></span> women of fashion on covers, inside a number of women&#8217;s magazines, and modelling, and these two companies pop up with this <span style="color:#ff9900;"><strong><span style="color:#99cc00;">doo doo</span></strong></span>! Give me a break!!</p>
<p><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1KiXcOYQ33o/SxCt14B8pEI/AAAAAAAAAeQ/Lorkz_t0cNY/s1600/PETAgoneBB72sm.jpg"><img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1KiXcOYQ33o/SxCt14B8pEI/AAAAAAAAAeQ/Lorkz_t0cNY/s200/PETAgoneBB72sm.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a> I am very pleased to tell you that since PETA received <em><span style="color:#00cccc;">so many phone calls and email complaints</span></em> regarding their <em><span style="color:#99cc00;">&#8216;tasteless&#8217; </span></em>signage, they had to replace it with this picture &#8211; like every overweight American is going to <em>suddenly turn</em> vegetarian, yeah right!</p>
<p>I had a few vegetarian friends in Alberta, two of which looked far too thin and unhealthy, and another that would be considered, &#8216;obese&#8217;, so there you go&#8230;..</p>
<p>Please take the poll I have placed below this post, and let me know what you think. I&#8217;d be interested to see if you agree with where I am coming from on this topic. <span style="color:#3366ff;"><em><span style="color:#33cccc;"><strong>Cheers!</strong></span></em></span></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><em><strong>Mark 11:28-33</strong><br />
“By what authority are you doing these things?” they asked. “And who gave you authority to do this?” Jesus replied, “I will ask you one question. Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things. John’s baptism—was it from heaven, or from men? Tell me!” They discussed it among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will ask, ‘Then why didn’t you believe him?’ But if we say, ‘From men’…” (They feared the people, for everyone held that John really was a prophet.) So they answered Jesus, “We don’t know.” Jesus said, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”</em></p>
<p>For a man who was going to be betrayed, the kind of things Jesus did at the end seemed insane. Entering on a donkey and getting praise from the lips of common folk certainly did not sit well with those in authority there. Adding insult to injury was when Jesus entered the temple courts and threw all the sellers out and overturned the tables of the money changers. These were people who managed to work their way into the temple courts through befriending the Pharisees and they charged exorbitant rates for sacrifices and money changing because they had exclusive dominion in that place and worshippers had no choice but to buy from them. Worse than all of this was that Jesus sat and taught the people who came into the temple courts about what God wanted for their lives and this shook the very foundation of the faith at that time.</p>
<p>It is clear from the passage above that Jesus was not going to be &#8216;Shooed&#8217; away and if these temple priests wanted him out, they would have to come up with something more than accusations. The only option they had then was to make falsified charges and take his life which was certainly what Jesus came for. He came to die for sinners and to give us hope of eternity with him through his resurrection. Are you willing to put your trust in Jesus who fought the world to clarify the truth to save us? Are you willing to stand up against the powers of this world and evil to proclaim his name above every other name? Lets not be caught sleeping when he come again. Lets rise us and share the gospel with the lost sheep and help them find their shepherd, Jesus Christ.</p>
<p>In His Loving Service,<br />

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>This is from the Glenn Beck Sucks Blog in reference to Glenn Beck&#8217;s effort to disrespect Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.glenn-beck-sucks.com/">Here is an excerpt from the blog</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>And one last thing, Beck thinks he is the white Martin Luther King. At the rally and in a letter on his website, Beck said he plans to organize a series of conventions in seven regions of the country, where his supporters can go to learn about self-reliance, community organizing, the economy and how to be a political force in your own neighborhood and country. The conventions will lead to a new book by Beck called &#8220;The Plan&#8221; and he will have a march on Washington to promote it:</p>
<p><strong>BECK: All of the above will culminate in &#8220;The Plan&#8221; a book that will provide specific policies, principles and, most importantly, action steps that each of us can take to play a role in this Refounding.</p>
<p>On August 28, 2010, I ask you, your family and neighbors to join me at the feet of Abraham Lincoln on the National Mall for the unveiling of &#8220;The Plan&#8221; and the birthday of a new national movement to restore our great country.</strong>Notice the date of Beck&#8217;s rally, it&#8217;s the same day as the anniversary of the I Have a Dream speech by Martin Luther King, Jr.</p>
<p>Let me give you Glenn Beck lovers a reality check. Glenn Beck is doing all this insanity to get rich, it&#8217;s all about money. Everything he does is to make him more money from his book sales, his radio show, and his tv show. He is a fraud and a con man, and a crazy one at that. And anyone who listens to one word he says it a lunatic who needs mental help.</p></blockquote>
<p>Check out the Glenn Beck Sucks Blog to keep up with all of the craziness that Beck displays on a daily basis.</p>
<p>Sadly, this goes beyond humourous stuff. This is a direct insult by Glenn Beck of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.</p>
<p>That is unforgiveable.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Lets see, there is money to travel with a 70 car motorcade to Asia, enough Rupees to hold a lavish formal State Dinner for the Indian Prime Minister, where big time supporters get invited to be thanked, yet, they have to cut the annual Chanuka dinner in half, citing budget problems.</p>
<p>President Obama is fooling no one with this insulting excuse. How expensive is it to make potato latkes? It is not because the Executive Chef at the White House cannot get his talented hands on organic grown potatoes. Could it be because both Senators from Idaho are Republicans? No.  The evident truth is President Obama is no friend of Israel or the Jewish people.  The latest insult came when America told Israel that if they were planning on flying over Iraq to get to Iran , the U.S.A would shoot them down. Very comforting to the Iranians. I am sure there will be no budgetary problem finding a couple of sheep for the next Ramadan feast&#8230;.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><a href="http://dangerouskind.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/ahwwwwww-lauu.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-963" title="ahwwwwww Lauu" src="http://dangerouskind.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/ahwwwwww-lauu.jpg?w=300" alt="" width="300" height="200" /></a>I&#8217;m sick and tired. And not of one thing, but of many of them. I don&#8217;t even know where to start, which annoys me the most. Since recently the only thing getting me angry was because of the stealing-sharing thing let&#8217;s begin with that one. I confess that i know that i won&#8217;t get Oscar or either Nobel prize for translating articles to English from Finnish but i would have expected that at least i would get a Thank you from people, since we are supposed to be friends and not enemies (but recently it turned out that between fans we are more like enemies than united friends <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif' alt=':roll:' class='wp-smiley' />  whatever). I really wouldn&#8217;t mind if people would post my translations on all the sites they have, the only thing i was asking is to give a proper link where from they have it since it was me who have spend time on doing it. It might sound i&#8217;m selfish, but if i would be i wouldn&#8217;t be doing those articles and post them. The second thing that is keeping me pretty annoyed is when people start insulting my friends without to even know more about them than just a forum nickname. Get a life and insult those you know for a longer time and you know more about them than just that. The third thing that i will write about is the fact some idiot some people can act when it comes to make themselves bigger and bigger in the eyes of someone. I hate those people who think that they know The Rasmus just because they have spent a night with them in a bar (where btw the guys were half -if not fully- drunk), and then come on you and tell this and that. And you know that you have been talking with them when sober and they have told you something totally different and you know you&#8217;re right and if you tell them they are wrong they immediately came crashing on you that you just have to shut up because it wasn&#8217;t you who have been with them more hours. Yeah right, let&#8217;s face they will never show their real personalities to none of the fans, they will always be friendly and nice with us, but we will never truly know the real Lauri Ylönen, Aki Hakala, Eero Heinonen and Pauli Rantasalmi&#8230; we&#8217;ll always know only the nice and friendly drummer, the smiling singer, the yoga-freak and silent bass player and the always hiding afro guitar player.<br />
I have just found out i&#8217;ve been banned from a forum. Wow, i have to be proud of myself. I think i had all my right to fight for what i want and that was the reason why. Who cares? I have another nice forum where to stay how much i want <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif' alt=':lol:' class='wp-smiley' />  This is just another proof from the admins of that forum that they are running from the responsibilities and problems as Oana said, they can&#8217;t face the real life and they just want to live peacefully in their own dream world without to be woken up by anyone. Sweet Dreams Girls! <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  Don&#8217;t wait for baby-face Lauri coming to you to ask you in marriage because he won&#8217;t&#8230; he&#8217;s already happy with his family <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> .</p>
<p>Mhmhmhmhm tomorrow 15th anniversary gig of the guys. Maaaan, i can&#8217;t wait for it&#8230;will be also home alone so partywith 100000000000 <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif' alt=':lol:' class='wp-smiley' />  I want to jump again around and just forget about the world for a while. I don&#8217;t care about the next week, i don&#8217;t want to&#8230; i just enjoy today and will skip some lessons, as i don&#8217;t have some of the essays prepared for them.<br />
Peace out and see you on Tuesday&#8230; tomorrow me in on the gig&#8230;wait me? <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' />  Don&#8217;t!</p>

<description><![CDATA[When someone says &#8220;you are such a fag&#8221; we view this as a very offensive type of insult. ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>When someone says &#8220;you are such a fag&#8221; we view this as a very offensive type of insult. What exactly makes it worse than say, &#8220;you are such a loser.&#8221; And is this insult <em>always </em>worse than a more generic insult like &#8220;you are such a loser.&#8221;</p>
<p>An answer will depend on how we insult people. I see three ways.</p>
<p>The first way involves comparing them to something objectively bad or undesirable. Something like &#8220;you are such a nazi&#8221; functions by equating the person to something that really is bad.</p>
<p>Another way to insult someone is to claim that they have betrayed their fundamental principles or have become something that they, by their own lights, would like not to be. We might say to the starving bohemian artist &#8220;you are so bourgeois.&#8221; The sting of this insult comes from claiming that this artist has betrayed his principles and has become something he does not want to be.</p>
<p>A third way of insulting someone is to claim that they are something that society frowns upon, though it may not be bad in itself. I think &#8220;you&#8217;re such a fag&#8221; falls into this category. We think that this insult is wrong because it relies on a misstaken public judgment to the effect that there is something being wrong with being gay. Unlike the nazi case, there seems to be no reason other than prejudice to claim a fault with being gay. So, the insult then is a mischaracterization of an acceptable and in some cases desirable way of life.</p>
<p>There is much more to be said on this topic, but my point is that calling some gay in an accusatory way may sometimes function in mode 3 above. In other words, you could be claiming that the person is something that they do not want to be. We could imagine a gay person saying to another gay person &#8220;you are so straight&#8221; and mean this as an insult in the context, as implying that the person is somehow not being true to who they are. In some cases, I do think that such identity based insults are meant in this way, to attract attention to a betrayal of principles, and this seems much less offensive. The claim is merely that the person is something that they do not wish to be, and even though, as I belive, there is nothing wrong with being gay, one is free not to be gay, and so may feel insulted by being labeled what he does not wish to be.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not certain that this is right, and as I said before, there may be more that needs to be said. For example, the insulted person may have no reason not to want to be gay, and so again, the insult may take its force merely from prejudice.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><strong>Bizman files complaint against the director for &#8216;men are dogs&#8217; comment on TV show</strong></p>
<p><strong><em>Notice: Imagine if someone said on the TV that women are bitches then what would have happened!</em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em><a href="http://www.mid-day.com/news/2009/aug/070809-Dus-Ka-Dum-Chembur-businessman-Abdul-Samad-Khan-Farah-Khan-Deepika-Padukone.htm">http://www.mid-day.com/news/2009/aug/070809-Dus-Ka-Dum-Chembur-businessman-Abdul-Samad-Khan-Farah-Khan-Deepika-Padukone.htm</a> </em></strong></p>
<p>Director Farah Khan has hurt the sentiments of Chembur businessman Abdul Samad Khan with her comments on TV show Dus Ka Dum.</p>
<p>Farah, who appeared with actress Deepika Padukone on the show on August 1, reportedly said, &#8220;Mard kutte hote hain, lekin wafadar nahin hote.&#8221;</p>
<p>Angered by the comment, Abdul filed a complaint against Farah with the Social Service Branch on Tuesday.</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/3J2GTsL6wa8&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/3J2GTsL6wa8&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p>Abdul, who owns a consultancy firm, said, &#8220;Farah should not have forgotten that she was on television. Such offensive language against men is unacceptable.</p>
<p>Our Constitution grants equal rights to both the sexes and she has no right to compare men with animals.&#8221;</p>
<p>When asked whether he wanted an apology, Abdul said, &#8220;We will take the legal route now. Strict action should be taken against her.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Senior Inspector</strong></p>
<p>R R Joshi of the Social Service branch said, &#8220;It is not a cognisable offence, but we will take necessary action only after taking a legal opinion.&#8221;</p>

<description><![CDATA[&nbsp; Louis CK apparently finds distaste in stuffed animals. The Setting: Merriam Theater, Philadel]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>&#160;</p>
<div class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 250px"><img class=" " title="Louis CK" src="http://www.montrealmirror.com/2007/071907/images/comedy1-1.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="302" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Louis CK apparently finds distaste in stuffed animals.</p></div>
<p><strong>The Setting:</strong> Merriam Theater, Philadelphia, PA.</p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p><strong>The Situation:</strong> My friends and I have just finished enjoying a hilarious night of stand-up by Louis CK.  If you don&#8217;t know him, Louis is the kind of comic whose jokes will make your grandmother not only faint, but spontaneously combust, and then after that her ashes will explode.  He has been quoted as saying that the Catholic Church exists &#8220;solely for the purpose of boy rape.&#8221;  He also once said, &#8220;I don&#8217;t have a gun, but if I did, I would shoot a baby deer in the mouth and feel nothing.&#8221;</p>
<p>Awesome, right?</p>
<p>And that&#8217;s just skimming the surface.  I admire Louis quite a bit for having the balls to say crazy shit that could enrage countless people.  I wanted him to know how awesome I think he is, and he was in the lobby signing autographs, so I waited for my turn to meet him.  Finally, it was my turn.</p>
<p><strong>What went down:</strong></p>
<p>Me: Hi!  Great show!  I really love your work.  Could you sign my ticket for me?</p>
<p>Louis: Sure.</p>
<p>Me: (as he is signing my ticket) You know, some people would say you&#8217;re a terrible person, but I think you&#8217;re awesome!</p>
<p>Immediately, I sensed this had come out wrong.  Louis&#8217; face scrunched up a little bit. Did I just&#8230;offend the king of offensiveness?  &#8221;Please don&#8217;t take it the wrong way!  I just mangled my words, I didn&#8217;t mean it like that!&#8221; I thought.</p>
<p>Louis: Well, uh&#8230;they&#8217;re entitled to their own opinion. (He hands my ticket back to me)</p>
<p>Fuck.  He took it the wrong way.</p>
<p>Louis: Next in line, please!</p>
<p>Sweet.  I just unintentionally insulted my comedy hero.  Luckily, I had time to time a quick photo with him, but currently, I am unable to find it.  So sad.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><strong>“I didn’t mean anything by it.”<br />
“I didn’t do it on purpose.”<br />
“I was just playing with ya; you know that, right?”<br />
“I’m sorry, I was wrong when I did that.”</strong></p>
<p><strong><a href="http://nickshell1983.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/bear_fight.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-922" title="Upright dancing fighting bears" src="http://nickshell1983.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/bear_fight.jpg" alt="" width="468" height="310" /></a><br />
</strong></p>
<p>The motive. Somehow it changes everything. From a forgotten detail, to a borderline insult of character, to a practical joke that is taken too far. If the motive wasn’t malicious, it makes a difference.</p>
<p>Or even a simple, sincere apology will quench the fire. Just knowing the crime was an accident or is regrettably acknowledged; it helps. Forgiveness is much easier when it happens sooner rather than later.</p>
<p>But when the damage was indeed intentional, we immediately go into defense mode, or at least struggle to hold back. Our DNA code is imprinted with the phrase “an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth”. Revenge is the natural response. Retaliation is easier than healthy communication.</p>
<p><a href="http://nickshell1983.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/cub-fight.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-923" title="cub fight" src="http://nickshell1983.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/cub-fight.jpg" alt="" width="192" height="164" /></a></p>
<p>There are many times the offender did mean something by it, they did do it on purpose, and they weren’t just playing around. Then it becomes an issue of both parties trying to prove to each other than the other really is the one who is morally wrong and/or more incompetent.</p>
<p>And that sparks the “who’s better?” contest. A competition that leads to grudges, insults, hurt feelings, arguments, fights, and as the course of history has proven, even war.</p>
<p>Being humble sometimes means being humiliated. That’s why it’s so hard to be wronged.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>America is furiously slipping and  sliding down the ladder of history,  losing its leading role as a the dominant voice in world politics.  Americans are so blinded by their childish immaturity they have lost the pulse on what is tearing this country apart. When did it become okay for people who held the highest position in our government to vulgarly denigrate their opponents?</p>
<p>How can Al Gore  refer to a respected candidate as a<strong> twilf ? </strong> I am not a P.C person but to all of you Americans this is what a former Vice President of these United States and past contender for the White House POSITION said about Sarah Palin. Twilf means:<strong> twittering wife I love to fuck</strong>.  Maybe Al should keep his sexual fantasies to himself.</p>
<p>Americans who support Al Gore&#8217;s raving lunacy should be ashamed. What kind of P.C. behavior is that?   You spit on your own and embrace those that espouse a doctrine of destruction and hate. The vulgarity of the Liberal agenda is mind-blowing. So let me get this straight &#8211; we no longer call Terrorists &#8220;terrorists&#8221; &#8211; there is no longer a &#8220;war on terror&#8221; because we do not want to insult the 1.8 Billion Muslims.  But it&#8217;s alright to call Sarah Palin a TWILF?  By all means, Ahmed and his blood thirsty pals are given the highest accord &#8211; even when they shoot 13 of us, but a former Governor, V.P. contender is garbage?</p>
<p>To add insult to the injury by calling a fellow American horrific names, we now have Al&#8217;s pal the President, who is bowing  to our past and present enemies.</p>
<p>This radical  administration is hell-bent on bringing  the United States to its knees whether by bowing  to a foreign leader who mocks us at every turn, or insults OUR  existing allies by snubbing their invitations.   I am sure the Queen of England is happy with the magnanimous gift of several CD&#8217;s of Barak Obama speeches given to her by Obama and which she immediately threw into a royal trash can.  Equally pleased I am sure was French President Sarkozy who invited the First Couple for dinner at his residence, but because Michelle had to see the latest Paris fashions they did not accept.  I understand Michelle is quite intimidated in the company of Carla Bruni, but that is not a reason to have a no-show. Also how dare Obama snub the Chancellor Merkle and the German government who invited him to represent America in celebrating the tearing down of the Berlin Wall, certainly one of the major events of the 20th Century.  Most likely because the festivities would evoke the names of Ronald Reagan and John Kennedy.  Obama&#8217;s childish and unadoring little ego just could not handle that.</p>
<p>If America is so P.C. how can a leader show such disrespect to his own country, the people of the United States ,and brown nose  itself  by bowing to the King of Saudi Arabia, the despot who is the money behind Wahhabism (the most extreme Muslim offshoot) and let&#8217;s not forget the King represents the country where most of the 9/11 terrorists  of 911 originated and Crucifixion is still carried out &#8211; not to mention the repressive society that sees women as chattel.  So why not bow to the emperor of Japan?  After all, Japan massacred 15 Million Chinese during World War II and enslaved millions more.  Is this President suffering from the results of a mental stroke?  Queen Elizabeth is secretly pleased Obama did not bow to her because Obama only bows to haters of America.</p>
<p>Obama represents you and me and every American.  His insecurities may have the need to bow to people with Titles, but mine does not.  Does yours?  He should wait until 2012 when he is victoriously thrown out of office; he can then bow to Oscar Meyer or the Pillsbury Doughboy if he so wants. But not when he is representing me.  We Americans are not subservient to any nation on this earth.  We are subservient only to God.  This is Barak Obama.  Al Gore is his pal.  Who is Al Gore?</p>
<p>Al Gore is a witless and spineless excuse of a person. He is devoid of any sense of  correctness and has no business using his cable channel to lambast political opponents in such a vulgar fashion. He is a wonderful example of why Americans got the label around the world that says THE UGLY AMERICAN. I do have to add  that today in referring to Americans it should be said the SPINELESS American.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>If you have a spare 25 minutes please make time to watch the latest edition of Unreported World on Channel 4, it is available to view at the &#8217;4On Demand&#8217; website for the next 27 days (until 13th December 2009).  I warn you though, it will make you cry.</p>
<p>The presenter Yemi Ipaye visits a number of child widows living in the South-West of the country.  Their situations are desperate.  One girl was married at 11 and widowed at 13.  She was married off at a young age because the dowry paid by the parents is less the younger the bride is.  Now she is viewed as a burden by her parents who beat and verbally abuse her; she will not be married again as she is now perceived as being bad luck and is blamed for the death of her husband.  Like many widows she may need to resort to prostitution to provide for herself.</p>
<p>The Hindu belief in reincarnation makes it clear that bad luck in this life is determined by past sins in a previous life.  Therefore young widows are ostracised by society and insulted, they are treated as if they were evil and are isolated and become the &#8216;living dead&#8217;, the title of the program.  In the past in Nepal sati was practiced.  This is the ritual suicide of a wife when her husband dies.  It was carried out by the widow climbing onto the funeral pyre of her husband and burning alive.  The practice was outlawed across Nepal and India a century ago but the prejudice and stigma that enforced it remains today.  It seems that a widow&#8217;s life is worth nothing.</p>
<p>A widow in Kathmandu described how she had been asked to leave her home when her landlord discovered she was a widow.  Now she no longer tells anyone, simply lying that her husband is working overseas.  She is impoverished and has had to send her two children to an orphanage because she can not look after them. </p>
<p>Women Without Roofs supports women that are on their own either because they are widowed or their husband is missing.  Please help us to help more women like these.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:center;"><strong><img src="/Users/Melvyn/AppData/Local/Temp/moz-screenshot.png" alt="" /><img src="/Users/Melvyn/AppData/Local/Temp/moz-screenshot-1.png" alt="" /><img class="aligncenter" src="http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/8712/20091115hyukjaebattle01.jpg" alt="" width="315" height="369" /></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">After reading about all this, you have to wonder; <strong>Lee Hyuk Jae </strong><em>must</em> know about the fanbases of his country. He <em>must</em> know that he&#8217;s not going to get away with insulting <strong>two</strong> boy bands in one sentence, surely?</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><!--more--></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Yesterday, popular rookie boy band <strong>BEAST</strong> were guests on <strong>Hyuk Jae</strong>&#8217;s KBS 2FM Radio show, &#8220;The Beautiful Life of Lee Hyuk Jae and Jo Hyang Ki.&#8221;  Many <strong>Beauties</strong> were very excited about this, but the feelings soon turned sour.</p>
<p>At one point in their conversation, <strong>Hyuk Jae</strong> stated, &#8220;<strong>BEAST</strong> will be known as a prominent make idol group next year. However, with the experience you have now, it will not happen. If this keeps going on, you guys will soon be the next<strong> Battle.</strong>&#8220;</p>
<p>I know what you&#8217;re thinking. <em>How dare insult Battle like that. How dare he say something so rude to BEAST.</em> Well, many<strong> Battle fans</strong> were of course thinking the same thing. They have stuck up for their group, arguing, &#8220;<strong>Battle</strong> was a group thatp ut in much effort and practice. Their &#8216;failure&#8217; wasn&#8217;t their fault.&#8221; They also questioned, &#8220;Why did he bring up <strong>Battle</strong> out of nowhere?&#8221;</p>
<p>I have to agree. It was completely unnecessary and rude.</p>
<p><strong>BEAST</strong> replied proffesionally, saying that they were fans of their seniors.</p>
<p><strong>Hyuk Jae</strong>’s agency has attempted to clear up the issue, stating, “There were no intentions to bring down the<strong> Battle</strong>. <strong>Hyuk Jae</strong> talked about them that way because he personally knows <strong>Battle’</strong>s agency. We will make an official apology statement on the 16th through our forum and broadcast.”</p>
<p>So what? He probably hurt <strong>Battle</strong> quite a lot too. It doesn&#8217;t matter who he knows; that was just plain disrespectful. As a <strong>Beauty</strong> my self, I demand an apology to BOTH bands.</p>

<p>OK, yesterday Tia Kemp (Rick Ross&#8217; child&#8217;s mother and an author signed to 50) was seen in pictures with her 3 children (1 of which is Rick Ross&#8217; son) hanging out with Rick Ross&#8217; enemies Floyd Mayweather &#38; 50 Cent at Floyd&#8217;s mansion in L.A.  Not that I condone violence or want to see anything from this war of words and video turn physical but 50 is going so hard and personal at Rick Ross that I would not be surprised if somebody got hurt.  Sure 50 is well protected but is Tia?  If she isn&#8217;t I fear for her safety.  I know people who have and would kill for less than this.  It is one thing to hate your child&#8217;s father but to disgrace him by having his children pose in pictures and play with his sworn enemies is another thing all together.  This is getting real ugly, real quick.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><h2><span style="font-size:medium;">It&#8217;s taken for granted that if you&#8217;re in the military you have the courage and constitution to keep your presence of mind and self-control about you in the middle of a fire fight when people are lobbing mortars at you, firing fully automatic rifles at you and killing your best friends. If you&#8217;re in the military it&#8217;s taken for granted you can handle that shit and still function.</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-size:medium;"><br />
</span></p>
<h2><span style="font-size:medium;">The &#8220;Don&#8217;t Ask, Don&#8217;t Tell&#8221; policy takes for granted that for all the bravery and constitution our military heroes possess, they <em>don</em>&#8216;t have what it takes to be near a gay person without freaking out and completely fucking losing it. Does the government really believe soldiers are that weak? Because that&#8217;s what DADT insinuates.</p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p>When you look at it like that, &#8220;Don&#8217;t Ask, Don&#8217;t Tell&#8221; is almost as insulting to heterosexual troops as it is to homosexual troops.</p>

<p>World oil reserves are far lower than officially reported, and the situation far more serious than publicly admitted. </p>
<blockquote><p><em>That&#8217;s the word from two anonymous IEA whistleblowers. To add insult to industry, the figures were deliberately massaged, at least in part, to appease the United States: The real figures for oil reserves would trigger a buying panic</em></p></blockquote>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><span style="color:crimson;">Reportedly written by Sherry Hackett, the widow of Buddy Hackett.</span></p>
<hr />
<p>&#160;</p>
<h1>&#8220;WE NOTICED&#8221;</h1>
<p>President Obama:</p>
<p>Today I read of your administration&#8217;s plan to re-define September 11 as a National Service Day. Sir, it&#8217;s time we had a talk&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;</p>
<p>During your campaign, Americans watched as you made mockery of our tradition of standing and crossing your heart when the Pledge of Allegiance was spoken. You, out of four people on the stage, were the only one not honoring our tradition.</p>
<h3>YES, &#8220;We noticed.&#8221;</h3>
<p>During one of your many speeches, Americans heard you say that you intended to visit all 57 states.  We all know that Islam, not America has 57 states.</p>
<h3>YES, &#8220;We noticed.&#8221;</h3>
<p>When President Bush leaned over at Ground Zero and gently placed a flower on the memorial, while you nonchalantly tossed your flower onto the pile without leaning over.</p>
<h3>YES, &#8220;We noticed.&#8221;</h3>
<p>Every time you apologized to other countries for America&#8217;s position on an issue we have wondered why you don&#8217;t share our pride in this great country. When you have heard foreign leaders berate our country and our beliefs, you have not defended us. In fact, you insulted the British Crown beyond belief.</p>
<h3>YES, &#8220;We noticed.&#8221;</h3>
<p>When your pastor of 20 years, &#8220;God-damned America&#8221; and said that 9/11 was &#8220;America&#8217;s chickens coming home to roost&#8221; and you denied having heard recriminations of that nature, we wondered how that could be. You later disassociated yourself from that church and Pastor Wright because it was politically expedient to do so.</p>
<h3>YES, &#8220;We noticed.&#8221;</h3>
<p>When you announced that you would transform America, we wondered why. With all her faults, America is the greatest country on earth. Sir, KEEP THIS IN MIND, &#8220;if not for America and the people who built her, you wouldn&#8217;t be sitting in the White House now.&#8221; Prior to your election to the highest office in this Country, you were a senator from Illinois and from what we can glean from the records available, not a very remarkable one.</p>
<h3>YES, &#8220;We noticed.&#8221;</h3>
<p>All through your campaign and even now, you have surrounded yourself with individuals who are basically unqualified for the positions for which you appointed them. Worse than that, the majority of them are people who, like you, bear no special allegiance, respect, or affection for this country and her traditions.</p>
<h3>YES, &#8220;We noticed.&#8221;</h3>
<p>You are 9 months into your term and every morning millions of Americans wake up to a new horror heaped on us by you. You seek to saddle working Americans with a health care/insurance reform package that, along with cap and trade , will bankrupt this nation.</p>
<h3>YES, &#8220;We noticed.&#8221;</h3>
<p>We seek, by protesting, to let our representatives know that we are not in favor of these crippling expenditures and we are  labeled &#8220;un-American&#8221;, &#8220;racist&#8221;, &#8220;mob&#8221;. We wonder how we are supposed to let you know how frustrated we are. You have attempted to make our protests seem isolated and insignificant. Until your appointment, Americans had the right to speak out.</p>
<h3>YES, &#8220;We noticed.&#8221;</h3>
<p>On September 11, 2001 there were no Republicans or Democrats, only Americans. And we all grieved together and helped each other in whatever way we could. The attack on 9/11 was carried out because we are Americans.</p>
<h3>YES, &#8220;We noticed.&#8221;</h3>
<p>There were many of us who prayed that as a black president you could help unite this nation. In six months you have done more to destroy this nation than the attack on 9/11. You have failed us.</p>
<h3>YES, &#8220;We noticed.&#8221;</h3>
<p>September 11 is a day of remembrance for all Americans. You propose to make 9/11 a &#8220;National Service Day&#8221;. While we know that you don&#8217;t share our reverence for 9/11, we pray that history will report your proposal as what it is&#8230;a disgrace.</p>
<h3>YES, &#8220;We noticed.&#8221;</h3>
<p>You have made a mockery of our Constitution and the office that you hold. You have embarrassed and slighted us in foreign visits and policy.</p>
<h3>YES, &#8220;We noticed.&#8221;</h3>
<p>We have noticed all these things. <em><strong>We will deal with you.</strong></em> When Americans come together again, it will be to remove you from office.</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><em>Take notice.</em></span></h2>
<p>Psa 118:8-9 NIV  It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man.  (9)  It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in princes.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>You&#8217;re not going to be making many friend&#8217;s with that statement. But then why on earth do people brand their products based on this insult?</p>
<div id="attachment_354" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 460px"><a href="http://chancemuse.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/jap.png"><img class="size-full wp-image-354 " title="jap" src="http://chancemuse.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/jap.png" alt="jap" width="450" height="217" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">For people without any intelligence whatsoever!</p></div>
<p>I&#8217;m kind of interested in learning Japanese; and I&#8217;ll happily admit I&#8217;m a complete beginner, but I don&#8217;t want an idiot&#8217;s guide. I want a guide made by people of normal intelligence for a person with normal  intelligence. &#8220;The Complete Idiot&#8217;s Guide&#8221; just sounds like it will only give me a very rudimentary idea of the language and that it will take an annoyingly long time to do it.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.earwormslearning.com/intro.html">Earworms</a> looks like a good idea, even if the concepts behind it makes it sound like borderline brainwashing.</p>

<p>Hi guys. It&#8217;s been a while. Sorry for the lack of updates I&#8217;ve been busy with work and stuff IRL in the past 2 weeks. I managed to translate some chapters in my free time. Here&#8217;s the first release for today. Don&#8217;t get fooled by the title page, it&#8217;s not loli. hehehe. It&#8217;s about the reunion of childhood friends after being separated for quite some time.</p>
<p>Stay tuned for more releases. I&#8217;ve finished translating Insult&#8217;s last chapter, 2 chapters of Chikage and a short by Tange Suzuki.</p>
<p>Enjoy!</p>
