Something about this narrative regarding the "Muslim Indoctrination" supposedly going in in Scottsdale Arizona rings fals to me... Google doesn't seem to have much on it either . Anyone have any links or anything to debunk (or "bunk" I suppose) this claim?  Credit : LGF

     Although i can't view any of his video entries here in Iraq (very very low bandwidth you see) Evan Coyne Maloney also has a blog of sorts which I cn view. In his most recent entry Evan publishes an interview that he conducted with Dana Milbank a reporter for the Washington Post. This interview attempts to draw a line between hard-news reporting ad opinion columns and to explore the difference between the blogospher's view of "reporting" and the mainstream medias view. ...

     I can safely say that in all the time I have used the Net that I have clicked on exactly one ad banner ever (intentionally). Yet ad banners are huge on the Net. Am I alone in never clicking on them? Do you? Who the hell is supporting this industry? Just curious.

     NJForever wondered who was whining about the elections still over on thi thread and while answering him I dug up some other quotes I just couldn't pass up : Hillary isn't liberal enough if she thinks we are winning the war apparently ...        IMHO this is another instance of H. Clinton acting as Joe Liberman's proxy by mouthing lies advanced by the administration. The facts on the ground in Iraq are clearly opposite to how she's s...

     Update : Commenters have yet to answer this question : Can you give me a good reason for a 9 year old to be in an Internet chat room? Can you?      While there is still some confusion as to who Jessica's primary caregiver was (father or grandparents) I still find this distubing: The sheriff says a computer in the girl's home is being examined for possible clues. She'd recently taken a computer safety class about the danger of meeting strange...

     For those who don't know there is an Amber alert issued for 9 year old Jessica Lunsford of Florida. All of the relevant information can be found here.  This case appears to be an aquaintance abduction since there are no signs of forced entry or a struggle. Only time will tell but hope for the best.      Fox News just broadcast an update to the case revealing that the police are now scanning through email on Jessica's PC in her room. For the h...

            One man stands ready on the center of the arena, he is alone with his thoughts and his thoughts  rage . His muscles bulge and ripple with barely contained power. Will they carry the day for him? Will he bask in the adulation of the crowd and claim the purse for one more day or will he be carried broken and possibly dead from the field of honor?             H...

     Some time ago (might have been years to be honest) I stumbled across this experiment conducted by George Goble of Purdue University. This is the sort of thing that I would love to try but my sense of self-preservation along with a heavy dose of laziness keeps  me from doing. Maybe my aluminum smelting buddy SPC NBS will try it? Now thats cooking!

     My non-updating buddy Negrodamus' blog here at JU has been blocked by Websense for "Adult" content. So far hi is the only one I can't read here. Personally I would have placed his sit under the "Tasteless" category

            One of the first things I was taught as I prepared to become a Non-Commissioned Officer was that I should strive to avoid creating ethical dilemmas for my soldiers. This means that I shouldn’t issue orders whose fulfillment would require my soldiers to do unethical things such as “Lay out your gear in one hour. If you don’t have X then you will be punished.” When you give orders like this with no legitimate outlet (like g...
