Evening.
I found what this judge concluded in this domestic abuse case to be simply mind boggling. I think it is telling that the decision of the apellate court REPEATEDLY stated that they were "concerned" and "troubled" with the judges decisions.
I am not putting this in as a political debate but more as a personal mention from a person who has sat in on a domestic abuse case as moral support for a family member (sister) who was the plaintiff. :( This judge and his decisions just dumbfound me.
Anyone else been a part of something similar (being moral support)?
Anyone (if anyone actually bothers reading) dumbfounded by the judge?Just throwing it out there...
It wont open for me, but we do so try to keep our little home free from such things..... too many varied opinions and we want to be friends

I'm liking Fact of Faked quite a bit more than Ghosthunters.Its ok. I do not think they have as of yet hit their stride for the show yet.
I got annoyed during the first episode when they used the laser on the double-paned glass to almost perfectly recreate the UFO video, but dismissed that it couldn't be that because he SHONE THE LASER INTO THE CAMERA LENS. That, right there, told me that dude's not being a skeptic, he's looking to prove that the videos are real.
Let's put it this way, if it had been Adam & Jamie recreating the UFO video and they saw that effect with the glass and laser pointer, the Myth would have been Busted in less than five minutes.
~grumbles~ Now I am (almost) feeling old. ~sighs~ You youngsters need to stop bragging about being (only) 27.
Am I the only Grandpa here? Y'all aren't getting any sympathy from me. ;)

Grandpa? Hey now! Unless you are 40 and older, you need to keep your young whipper snapper mouth shut!

I simply ask for clarity...
I see no reason as to why it would not open and when coupled with the remainder of the post it appears to be a smartalec (sp?) answer.
Is that sincere or not?
Although the judgement can be looked at in many ways politically my inquiry was a personal and nonpolitical one. I also find the statement about trying to keep this thread clear of such things disingenuous because no similar (that I saw) posts were made regarding the discussion of wal-mart andit working against unions. But, I have not read everything and may have missed such posts if they were present.

Sorry did not mean it the way it seems written on second read through.
I am sure you meant nothing untoward with the post.
Honestly my main issue is that I could not read it.

My apologies for any misunderstanding on this.
*tips hat*
It is an adobe file, so maybe that and/or the size (38 pages, no pics) has something to do with opening it. I actually used the actual decision link instead of a few opinion links I had found in an attempt to isolate it from all the politics. But, it is no big deal.
Have you received any input on your warring deities thread or did it die after about three posts? I guess I could look myself but that would require at least a minimal expenditure of energy...
Happy to be home. Only one more week of school left, and then I hope to have the time to be back here more often.
I do see that Taig made it back to the boards safe and sound. Glad to read. :)
Uri's being his usual energetic self.
CH, did you ask wth about the note thingy yet? Going to leave a return note?
CrimJ, enjoy your dinner?
Going to fix dinner for my fam now. Fried bologna and egg sands. With tater tots, a fave around here.
Babe, I'd be even more energetic if you gave me a hot heaping of Carolina's finest BttH. ;-)
I have heard rumors of such but that was from FOX NEWS.Do they have a psychological division?I don't care for physical torture.Out to dinner with the Wife and an Ex............. Should be painful.You're either a masochist or a member of opus dei.

Cool. I'm curious when you learn more. I assume you've seen my work pecs.
I must've missed that series. Was Bitter Thornamania running wild? ;-)

The link worked fine for me, but this is entirely consistent with my experience with family and criminal courts as well about a decade as a foster parent. The system is a joke, and I'll leave it at that so I don't go on an endless rant.
hey ya guys sorry I have been sporadic, but I forgot about my buddies bachelor party last weekend until my brother called me up and mentioned it to me. I had a 5 hour car ride to it in souix falls but it was worth it. and what did I miss?
I know what I missed. Your all points bulletin.

Dohp! You made me go back and look!

Yeah, they fight it to the last. But, hey, it's at least a technology that could see some use along the coast, even if they won't allow Cape Wind to go forward.They are offering retraining in wind turbine technology, and supposedly they are going to build a huge windfarm off the shoreline here (if the lawyers for the NIMBY crowd don't squash it).If memory serves, they've been fighting that for years.Yeah, I think wind farms like that can be a decent source of supplemental energy, similar to solar power.
The Danish tried it, and they lose money big time on it.

And that is what tends to be one of the problems with stuff like solar and wind. The cost of construction and maintenance is usually higher than the energy you can get out of it. That, along with the intermittent nature of each source, makes them more likely to be economically unfeasible. But on small scales, and built in the right places, it might be possible to create a supplemental energy source to help ease the burden. I believe California homeowners do stuff like that.

Morning AZ!
Yeah, believe it or not, I am a big fan of alternate energy. Of course, I am more interested in getting Space-based solar going, as we have a 5 billion-year source of fusion energy closeby. However, HD is right, solar and wind will always 'lose' money if put up against oil and coal, but there are the peripheral benefits of not screwing up the environment with the process of extracting the fossil fuels like they do in Alberta. Also, as you mentioned, it is a supplimental souce (at least Earth-based) and until the tech gets to the point where we have solar-powered shingles that hook directly to a house's electrical system, it will be a peripheral technology. And even the greenyest of Greens seem to backtrack when someone wants a wind turbine near THEIR sacred house.
I really wish we had made the target of 2,000 nuclear power plants by 2000 they had before the whole no-nukes crowd luddited their way across America. Coal powerplants could be a mention in the museums by now :(
I would love to have solar panels to suppliment my energy needs, but the cost is too much, especially where I am having difficulties making my current debts. :(
As for my inquiry on training, it seems that when I left the millitary, somehow I got a DD 214 without mention of my discharge >.< So now, I have to write to St. Louis to get a 'full' copy >.< THIS is why I hate bureaucracy. I have plenty of other paperwork attesting to my honorable discharge, but no, the powers that be will only accept a DD214 with the discharge status on it. Which, somehow, mine omits. So the process is now beholden to whatever paperpushers dwell in the National Personnel Records Center in Saint Louie. *shudder* FML.
Common sense would allow another piece of official paperwork to suffice, but no, proceedures are proceedures. McDonalds is beginning to look good again, especially if I don't have to join a friggin' union. >.<
Anyway, how are you zombeh?

*blink* It's too bright in the office.
Or it might be the lack of sleep since a certain pretty-pretty shiny came in from Seattle last night. Even the little sleep I got was filled with selling my soul to sexily crazy witches and tossing alchemical bombs at goblins and orcs.
How's that morning going for everyone else?

Far
We've been travelling far
Without a home
But not without a star
Free
Only want to be free
We huddle close
Hang on to a dream
On the boats and on the planes
They're coming to America
Never looking back again
They're coming to America
Home, don't it seem so far away
Oh, we're travelling light today
In the eye of the storm
In the eye of the storm
Home, to a new and a shiny place
Make our bed, and we'll say our grace
Freedom's light burning warm
Freedom's light burning warm
Everywhere around the world
They're coming to America
Every time that flag's unfurled
They're coming to America
Got a dream to take them there
They're coming to America
Got a dream they've come to share
They're coming to America
They're coming to America
They're coming to America
They're coming to America
They're coming to America
Today, today, today, today, today
My country 'tis of thee
(Today)
Sweet land of liberty
(today)
Of thee I sing
(today)
Of thee I sing
(today)
(today)
(today)
(today)
APG!
