That's a pretty strong argument. I'll give you that yes there are more HIV cases among sexually active gay men than hetero. It's also the nature of the bug that makes it easier for a gay man to get it than and hetero one. But overall STDs, facts would be nice. On average one in four americans has herpes, many dont know since the are not showing any symptoms. Here's another fact I learned in my human sexuality class at the Uni this was from the Kaiser foundation: close to 70% of 17-25 year olds dont use condoms when alcohol or drugs are involved. Dont be too quick to point reckless sexual behavior and the repercussion it has on one group in society. You want facts on HIV infections in the USA. Go to the CDC and look up the most recent report on HIV/AIDS from 1999-2003. I'm sure this 'Gay Lobby' doctored these documents. One thing you'll hopefully will learn is that HIV/AIDS and other STDS are not mutually exclusive to one group. You cant use one group in society as a scape goat for a bug that doesnt care if your black, white, rich, poor gay or straight.

It would also be interesting to see how much money was saved after this went into effect. CP cases are notoriously more expensive to pursue than LWOP.

Ever been out to a bar, gotten loaded and come across what you think is a cute girl. One thing leads to another and your at her place. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to see what's going to happen next. Shit happens, people act like idiots once in a while and especially when alcohol is involved. How many parteners have you had within the last year? How many partners does the average single sexaully active male or female between the ages of 18-35 have in a given year? Out of those encounters how many involved alcohol or some other drug. Another simple question too. How many sexually active single men and women out there have gotten tested for stds within the last 6-12 months. Don't be too quick to judge people when we too can make the same mistakes they have made.

I'll be there. You think Snore will be dried out by then?

It sounds like your nutrion is pretty good from what you said. If you dont mind me asking how many meals are you eating a day? You might also want to look into other cardio exercises. Get a speed rope and do a few mins of that 3 times a week as a warm up before starting your routine. I'll jump 3-4 times a week for 15 min, not all at once: 2 min rope, 30 sec rest, then start over again. Like Aggie said rest is extremely important too; 7-8 hours of sleep at night would be ideal. Good luck too.

It's a lot cheaper to put someone in prison for life than it is to go for a DP conviciton. Several studies in many different states from Ohio to Ca have shown this. In Fla it cost aprox $3.18M to execute someone, while to incarcerate them costs aprox $17K a year. Assuming the average life span of a human is 75 years, that would cost $1.275M for 75 years. Even if that person lives to 150yo its still cheaper to keep him in jail. Some may argue that all these cost are incurred in the appeals process, but the truth is most around 75% of these are on the trial level.

billvon, The 101 by Encino flooded over last night . It was on the news this morning, a few CHP veterans said they have never seen anything like this. I just want the rain to stop, so sick of it.

Loneliest I ever felt was the jump after I grad AFF. Grad AFF in the morning then went on my first solo student jump. Being the last jumper out of the otter was a pretty damn lonely and scary feeling. It was a hellof a lot of fun though, just being able to jump out and relax and take in the view.

I dont think cops should be judge, jury and executioner. That's insane. They shouldnt use deadly force as a preventative measure, I agree with you. But once that kid tried to run over a cop well what was the officer supposed to do.

Here's a pretty good article on little suckers like this one: http://www.space-art.co.uk/markgarlick/articles/an_magnetars.htm Read the last two paragraphs. The whole black background and blue font is a bit hard to read, so I just right click over a few paragraphs.

Take an astronomy class at your local JC. It'll literally blow your mind away. The star they are talking about is a Magnetar. Just as an example if we could put this little sucker halfway between the Earth and the moon it would suck your pen out of your pocket and erase the info on your credit card. That's how powerful this little guy, the size of a small city, is. F-ing amazing if you ask me. Just this quote blew my mind away "We have observed an object only 20 kilometers across [12 miles], on the other side of our galaxy, releasing more energy in a tenth of a second than the sun emits in 100,000 years." WOW

I'm sick of this crap too. Always blame the cops. It's their fault they guy stole a car, evaded police and then tried to run them over. What's a cop supposed to do; let this guy drive around till he kills someone with a stolen car. Then after he runs out of gas pull him out of the car. IMHO the new guideline are a bunch of BS. Pretty soon all cops will be able to do is hold up their badge and shout "Stop".

Not this weekend. F-ing rain.

That's f-ing hilarious. I read your post while I was drinking water and almost splattered it all over my monitor.

I would never try to manualy fix a PC in tow I would go straight to my EPs. But thinking about this reaching around, I would never do it, couldn't it lead to a myriad of problems besides the obvious one of eating up altitude at terminal. Could you possibly get entangled with any parts of the deploying main, if you extracted the pin, also how about poor body position while it deploys.

All good points, but can you really compare the USSR to Iran. Both sides knew that a nuclear war would be the end of the human race. Thus MAD worked in a sick kindof way. Could you say that same thing about a fundamentalist terrorist. Could MAD work with a real nutcase like OBL or one of his followers? SH was a tyrant but smart enough to know he didn't want to die or lose his power. Could you say the same thing about Iran.

I have no problems with Israel having a nuclear bomb. They're not the types to sell it off to the highest bidder. Iran, well would you trust them with a nuke. IMHO what kept Saddam at bay in GW1 was that he knew if he attacked Israel with Bio or Chem weapons they most likely they would've retaliated with nukes. Now imagine if Israel didn't knock out Saddam's nuclear plant in the 80s and he acquired the ability to build such weapons.

My dog likes celery. I know not strange BUT she only eats it after its been in a bloody mary. Go figure I have an alcoholic dog.

So cal is nice, but like all places it has its pros and cons. Weather is awesome, but cost of living is expensive. Also the traffic here SUCKS, you have to plan around it. It can take you 45min plus to travel 15 miles during rush hour. Back on topic if I could live anywhere I would chose Italy. Spent 4 months there and loved the people, weather, and food. How are the DZs there though.

I know an honest debate w/o people trying to kill each other. To me the 2nd is one of the most powerful amendments out there, on par with the first. It carriesa huge amount of responsibility. Think about it for a second; you have the right to own firearms. I'm all for the second, but I do not consider it an absolute. Certain individuals should not own guns. Before anyone jumps on me. I'm referring to convicted criminals. If anyone is convicted of a violent crime, then they should lose this right. I remember reading a case in my law class at the Uni about a Judge restoring a convicted domestic abusers fireams. To me this was wrong.

Why is it mad? How would your legal system have handled such a case.

What's a speed round? Also what speed are these pilots hitting? Just curious.

I'm thinking of buying a fullface for RW and was wonder if its really necessary. I have a BH pimp daddy for my attempts at FF.

Aint Karma a bitch. I doubt even a hollywood writer could make this up, this is too damn funny.
