Soon the Constitution of the United States was adopted to secure domestic hostility. Under the constitution the people enjoyed the right to keep bare arms.

Call it what it is. The BUSH RECESSION.
by sammielee24 incall to arms.
the creeprepublicans are already in force trying to strategize for the next election with lies - of course what else is new?
the party that just finished bringing down the country haven't even bothered to let people breathe or let them see the results of the lawsuits and justice for all of those people that they allowed to destroy us.

This is not a recession. It is the end of capitalism.
Indeed comrade.

Such a catchy tune. The poster of the kid with the violin makes me sad.

The NOC I work at once had over 120 people now it has 12. Most of that occured during the dot com bubble burst and the WorldCom bankruptcy though. The Dallas Ft. Worth Area as weathered the real estate crash relatively well so far, but it does show signs of weakening as elsewhere pointed out... and checking out Zillow it seems that values in McKinney have fallen off a cliff recently.
Personally I got a raise and bonus this year, but most of that will be banked. Who knows what will come next year, or next quarter for that matter.*shakes fist at ING's rates falling faster than Ft. Myers housing market.*

I Don't Ridicule Whale Evolution Anymore
by metatron ina very old book, after its kind, once ridiculed whale evolution as a sort of creation myth.
creatures struggled out of the water and grew legs and ran across dusty prairies and then (!
) got back into the water and became aquatic again and ended up as whales.

I've got pneumonia
by sacolton inafter a week-long battle of what i thought was a bad case of upper respiratory infection, i decided to get checked out by my doctor.

Not me personally, but pneumonia has put a close relative in the hospital ICU before, although they did have other problems that exacerbated the issue. Take at easy, and be sure and take the full course of antibiotics your doctor perscribes even if you're feeling better and haven't finished it.

by Caedes inon the 6th of march there will be a "faith of britain" day where we can make our dreams come true using the power of faith.
with over 80 million people concentrating their mental energies at the same time on the same day, we will unleash an irresistible psychic force that will, quite literally, make our dreams come true.. .
why will this work?.

Satellite Debris Falling: Have you seen it?
by cameo-d inwe now have so much space debris that earth looks like it's in a snow-globe:.
here's another shot that shows what appears to be debris taking on an orbit pattern.. .
debris from satellite collision falling down on texashouston (dbtechno) - according to reports, debris is apparently falling down on texas from the satellite collision which took place last week.. the federal aviation administration (faa) has received a series of reports from law enforcement agencies in texas in regards to reports of debris falling out of the sky.. the biggest of which was something which looked like a ball of fire going across the texas sky.. the belief is that this debris is from the collision of a u.s. satellite and russian satellite last week.. not only was a ball of fire seen, but a sonic boom was also reported in the state.. according to the faa, there have been no injuries, deaths, or anything of that nature from the debris.. on top of that, there have also been no reports of any damage.. there has been a warning issued though for pilots to keep their eyes open to spot any type of debris of this nature.. .

At what point will all this debris begin to block out the light?
There's a plan to combat global warming where they would launch lenses to a lagarange point between the earth and the sun where their gravitational pulls cancel each other out. They would form cylindrical a cloud about half the diameter and 10x the length of the earth. Each lens would weigh about a gram, and the total mass of the cloud would be about 20 million tons. This would block about 2% of the suns energy reaching earth.
So we'd need a lot of debris up there to make any difference.

That ring pattern is likely stuff in geosynchronous orbit.
I saw the news reports about the fireball, but I didn't see anything myself.
