All I do is stay focused looking straight forward at the world, and beyond. I feel people pulling me down, I feel some pulling me up I can't get stuck. I just keep moving forward, I have places to go.

Crappy Parents Let their Children Die I think an adequate punishment should be life in prison surrounded by pictures and recording of their child. Though this might not be classified as murder it has to be a couple counts of neglect, manslaughter, and shitty parenting.
"Madeline Neumann died Sunday from a treatable form of diabetes. Her mother, Leilani Neumann, told The Associated Press that she never expected her daughter, whom she called Kara, to die. The family believes in the Bible, and it says healing comes from God, but they are not crazy, religious people, she said...Other family members called 911 to seek emergency help, Leilani Neumann said. "We are remaining strong for our children," she said. "Only our faith in God is giving us strength at this time."...She had probably been ill for about 30 days, suffering symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, excessive thirst, loss of appetite and weakness, he said."(Fox News)
I can only assume since their lives are in GODS hand they will not be seeking the services of a lawyer? I don't think the bible says "do no palliative care for it is against the word" If Mr or Mrs Neumann accidentally cut off a finger, would they pray that God stops the bleeding and reattaches it naturally; or would the go to the doctor. Their actions are negligent and can not defend their actions by their made up fanatical religious convections. If they use a lawyer, then it should automatically throw out the argument of religious freedom.
Crappy parents blaming video games MISS BIMBO is a game labeled as the destruction of society do to its inherent messages during game play. Parents are in outrage in arguing for government regulation for the website, and punishment for its creators.
"each registered player is given a "Bimbo" to take care of. According to the rules, the goal of the game is to make your "Bimbo" the most sought after character, which includes dressing, dating, dieting and even plastic surgery to enhance her appearance. Parents are understandably up in arms over the game.(CBS 4)"
Maybe I can sympathize with watchdogs who says it sends the wrong message. So do so many other things that people are exposed to on a daily day. What idiot parent lets their children online to a site named Miss Bimbo? The internet age is no longer in its infancy, if a family can afford the $30 bucks a month on internet. A family can afford the $40 watchdog software, to report where their children have been while they were online. The governments job is not to raise your children, that it is your job parents. Just as it is your job to monitor the TV they watch, the music they listen to, and people they talk to. That is the job of a parent, to annoy the hell out of their kids until the know they care, then annoy them some more. If the software is to expensive, I have an ingenious plan to save money and the innocences of your household. UN PLUG THE COMPUTER, just yank that cord out of the wall. A matter of fact cancel your ISP and you will save over $300 a year on top of the energy savings. Isnt their more pressing matters in America than regulating music and video games, what about the economy?
The country of Malaysia is doing no better than when their protest started. Is that freedom I hear being taken away, does anyone care.
BBC reports: Five ethnic Indian rights activists have been arrested in Malaysia, under a rarely used security law that allows indefinite detention without trial.
The men belong to the Hindu Rights Action Force (Hindraf), which organized a mass rally last month alleging discrimination against ethnic Indians...The five men are being held under the Internal Security Act (ISA), which human rights groups want to abolish...The five detained activists were involved in a peaceful rally last month - the biggest protest involving ethnic Indians in more than a decade...Deputy Internal Security Minister Johari Baharom said the five men had been arrested because their actions threatened national security...Earlier this week Prime Minister Abdullah Badawi said the government would not tolerate street demonstrations, and warned that if necessary he would resort to using the ISA "without feeling guilty, without feeling sad".
Remember kids don't speak out on injustice, or big brother will kick your ass
Equality isn't as important as tourism! Malaysia says street protests have hurt tourism AFP
Malaysian Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said Thursday that a recent spate of street protests has hurt the tourism industry, with hotels and tour agencies reporting cancellations...Faced with growing regional competition, the government spent 200 million ringgit (60.4 million dollars) to promote "Visit Malaysia Year 2007" to boost the sector -- the nation's second-largest foreign exchange earner.Although Malaysia's multiculturalism is a major selling point for tourism authorities, ethnic Chinese and Indians say they face discrimination by Malay Muslims, who make up 60 percent of the population.
New Tourism Motto? Malaysia: You can come to visit, but don't think of staying if your not Muslim. This isn't your home, just a vacation. On your right you can see the poor saps who want a job.
How do you get rid of African Americans in a city that is populated with large amounts of African Americans.
Let a Hurricane hit the city Dont provide any government assistances before, and after the storm Push survivors out to neighboring cities(e.g. Houston) Put the other survivors in formaldehyde lined trailers, provided for by the government. msnbc Demolish the public houses left, for rebuilding purposes. <----Thats a new one Is it necessary to have the military present?
In normal times, redevelopment of public housing to make way for mixed-income neighborhoods might have gone largely unopposed. But passions are high in hurricane-ravaged New Orleans, where residents are desperate for cheap housing.The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development wants to demolish about 4,500 public housing units at four of the city's largest complexes and replace them with mixed-income neighborhoods.Protesters have marched on Mayor Ray Nagin's home and disrupted City Council proceedings with chants. A march on the HUD offices in Washington, D.C., also was planned for Thursday. Protesters were able to temporarily halt crews from demolishing decrepit buildings at the B.W. Cooper housing site on Thursday. They vow to continue disrupting work there and at other sites around the city. The protesters have won the blessing of one presidential contender, John Edwards. "There is a housing crisis in New Orleans today — the result of government policies that have failed the people of the Gulf," Edwards said in a statement this week. "Rents have doubled, families are being evicted from FEMA trailers and now the current administration is trying to make a bad situation worse." Opponents are suspicious of HUD because the redevelopment plans — following a model used around the country to break up concentrations of poverty — call for a reduction in subsidized housing and allow commercial development on the sites.Tessua Faulk, a 31-year-old teacher, said she doesn't trust the plans because demolition at New Orleans' St. Thomas development, where she grew up, left some of her old neighbors homeless....
By mixed-income they must mean, everyone will have means to purchase housing except the low-income.
Roger Clemens, Miguel Tejada and Andy Pettitte were named in the long-awaited Mitchell Report on Thursday, an All-Star roster linked to steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs that put a question mark -- if not an asterisk -- next to some of baseball's biggest moments. SI.com
This report sounds like it comes from a bunch of hearsay, are there any real ramifications for athletes listed in this document? This Mitchell report is publicly flogging athletes and not MLB as a whole, for the role they played in the reemergence of baseball after the strike. At least Bonds isn't alone anymore, more lambs to the slaughter.
There is no fairness, or maybe I am just a hater.
"Alex Rodriguez set another record for baseball's highest contract, finalizing his $275 million, 10-year agreement with the New York Yankees on Thursday." Si.com
Why cant teams afford to build their own stadiums, it is clearly not the lack of money. All the public funds appropriated for stadiums, could be used for good. I dont know, fighting poverty, funding education, subsidizing gas prices. But those aren't any problems in the U.S.A., especially not New York City. That is for another post, look forward.
That's it for today, keep your eyes open. What you see is not always the truth.
