| Hip-Hop Rumors: Is Kimora Preggers? Bottle Hits Pitbull! Timbaland ...
Damn! What is the hell is going on? I heard about 2,500 people packed club PLANETA in San Antonio, TX to see the one and only Pitbull. After the rapper gets about two songs into his concert, a bottle zips out from the crowd and busts Pitbull on the side of the head! The bottle didn't crack, but it did break the skin and Pitbull bled. A nurse taped him up and he kept performing for one song. There would be no full concert due to the bleeding. He was eventually taken away by the paramedics to get eight staples in his head. Pitbull told the crowd that said his fans pay his bills and he wasn't going let one hater spoil it for them. I heard roughly 80% of those I attendance were females. Foul! See the ignorant video below. REMY MA CLASHES WITH DIRECTOR? Remy Ma has been relatively low-key.
CNN Invites Charles Barkley to Trash Conservative 'Fake Christians'
Then the conversation turned to John McCain, and that's where Barkley unloaded his attack on conservatives: BARKLEY: Hey, I live in Arizona. I have got great respect for Senator McCain. Great respect. But I don't like the way the Republicans are taking this country. Every time I hear the word "conservative," it makes me sick to my stomach, because they're really just fake Christians, as I call them. That's all they are. But I just — I'm going to vote Democratic no matter what. Barkley discussed how he plans to run for Governor of Alabama in 2014. He's been talking about running for that office for years. Does Barkley have any idea that it might be a little tougher to win in Alabama now that he's trashed all the "fake Christians" in that state who disagree with him on the social issues? (Is this the kind of help Obama needs in allegedly bringing people together?) Blitzer gently brought Barkley back around to the "fake Christians" issue, and basically waited until Barkley had tried to explain himself before noting at the very end that perhaps some (or, perhaps, most) Christians are sincere: BLITZER: All right.
Fall back, men, Afghanistan is a nasty war we can never win
An equally desperate Britain is proposing to send half-trained territorials to the front, after its commanders ignored every warning that the Taliban were the toughest fighters on earth. Meanwhile Nato is doing what it does best, squabbling. Gates has criticised Britain for not taking the war against the insurgents with sufficient vigour. Britain is furious at America’s obsession with spraying the Helmand poppy crop and thus destroying all hope of winning hearts and minds. Most of the 37,000 soldiers wandering round Kabul were sent on the understanding that they would do no fighting. No army was ever assembled on so daft a premise. Nato’s much-vaunted 2006 strategy has not worked. It boasted that its forces would only be guarding reconstruction and training the Afghan police.
Aid campaign to Haiti is area artist's personal mission
In 2002, college professor and artist Anne Jordan-Reynolds of Montgomery established a school in Coco, Haiti, for children from remote northern villages, a place where for decades the concept of education simply didn't exist. She's also helped struggling artists on the port of Cap-Haitien and taught about the risk of HIV to a population with the highest AIDS incidence outside sub-Saharan Africa. Having built the school and made personal bonds with so many people, she continues to travel regularly to Haiti, a country on the island of Hispaniola that is roughly the size of Maryland and only 600 miles southeast of the tip of Florida. "It has reached a serious crisis," Jordan-Reynolds said after her most recent trip, in January. "I just returned, and things are the worst I've ever seen them." While some people grouse that mere handouts only create more dependency among Haitians, Reynolds contends that her work is aimed at creating self-supporting communities.
Mother seeks retrial in death
Remember, Andrew was NOT the Overton's child he was a foster child. As foster parents, there are minimum standards that must be adhered to. Seeking medical attention for the eating disorder and for emergency care is one of the basic requirements of the standards that govern foster care. (Suggest removal) .
Rise of the Ron Paul Republicans
Along comes government, which prints another $10 bill. It looks just like yours and spends just like yours. The only difference is that government did nothing to create its $10. Remember, you had to work for yours. At first, both $10 bills buy the same amount of goods. But after awhile, merchants notice there is more money "out there" and with it, more demand for their products. So they raise their prices. Suddenly, your $10 is worth $5 less than it was before. It is not the products and services which have become worth more; the currency is worth less than it was before. Some economists say that inflation is a normal part of a healthy economy. This is false. It only exists when a monetary system has no sound base. We are also told that the boom and bust cycle is a normal part of all economic activity.
July 2006
With a dozen operational windfarms built over the last 12 years in waters up to 60 feet deep and with 20 or more in the construction and permitting stage their economic, environmental and safety issues have been largely addressed. These shallow water windfarms make use of well developed simple monopole foundations driven deep into the seabed or, so called "gravity bases", concrete structures much like a flat bottom Christmas tree stand that are floated in place, submersed and filled with rock. Certainly far offshore winds in deep water are more plentiful and stronger than those nearer the coast. And the lure of such development is understandable from the potential of enormous wind energy production. However technical viability and economic practicality lay somewhere in the future.
