First photo of Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords revealed as she continues to recover from the tragic shooting a year ago..

The world’s shortest man celebrates his 18th birthday .. he’s from the Phillipines and he stopped growing as a child..
The book of records now names Junrey Balawing the shortest *adult* on earth.. he is 23.5 inches tall.
Wide-eyed over new Facebook privacy policy.. be forewarned when you tag
The good old days of privacy.. Ahh, yes. Gone for good.. and ushering it out is the new world of constant surveillance, photos being posted everywhere of you, and your every move being tracked and posted online. And oh, by the way, you are doing it … No need for Big Brother to take something away when you freely give it yourself.
But now new concerns over facial recognition policy on Facebook are becoming real. Facebook is allowing users to identify their friends automatically in photos without their permission. It’s called ‘tag suggestions’ and until now it has just been unavailable. Have fun, kids, yet another tool to rid yourself of privacy.
Once people would have asked, how far is too far? Now the question is gone and replacing it is the race to tag and track it all, chip the arm, log the leg, track the call, and save the searches.
People often say, “If I don’t do anything wrong I have nothing to fear.” Wrong. History tells us that.
Facebook is fun, I have an account, and it’s easy to connect with friends. And it has perfected the 21st century abandonment of those things we once held true to: Privacy. Tag me baby, it’s the new world order.
Why are you basically convicting casey anthony?
I’m not. I put a poll on here a day ago to see people’s thoughts. I post things about the trial and add some commentary on my thoughts on the trial.. I believe all are innocent until guilty, and I believe all are entitled to a decent defense that truly questions the evidence presented by the state.
As a matter of fact, I actually don’t think the state has compelled me yet. I believe without question there are lots of things tying Casey Anthony to the death of her daughter, and the heart stick and “trouble” shirt they find with the skull doesn’t help.
But if I was on the jury, I still would not be decided. I wonder if they will put Casey herself on the stand.. and if so … wow, just imgaine the mad and insane *(and ridiculous) rush to get in the court house that day.
I asked the new world order question but I have a follow up: don't you think religions, organized ones, are worse than government? They have hurt a hell of a lot more people, don't you say?
Not really comparable. Organized religions have been certainly guilty of some pretty harsh things. And so has government. I don’t have a body count, to be honest with you.. but Vietnam, China, the Soviet Union,and Nazi Germany during the 20th century certainly killed millions upon millions of innocent world citizens.
I guess government killed too.. but I’d be more inclined to believe that through history the ‘state’ killed due to religion much more than the religion itself.
i noticed a ton of new world order stuff and bilderberg stuff on this site lately, i guess I just wonder if you buy into that all? do you actually think "they" are out to get us? whoever "They" are?
News flash: There is a Bilderberg meeting happening now. It’s really happening! No .. really.
And sure, why wouldn’t there be powerful people meeting in order to change or make a world agenda? I consider it a natural that people would do just that.
We need to be a little concerned though when anything happens behind closed doors. The light of the truth coming in, doors wide open, that is how we find out the truth.
Where did you move to when you had to leave Centralia? I find the story of that place interesting, also kind of sad.
Left Centralia in the late 1980s.. My grandmother stayed until she died.. and if you follow it at all some are still holding out there despite government attempts to force them out.
The story is a sad one. It was a nice little town.. very nice. I would have had a much different childhood were there to be no mine fire. Instead there was, so there were fewer and fewer kids to play with and just vacant streets with the constant noise of powered equipment tearing down structures that stood in some cases for well over 100 years.

Followers and readers: Got all of your questions asked today
Just didn’t have any spare second to answer them yet, but answers should be forthcoming soon.

If this is the future, find me a time machine to stay in the past.
Even the flannels that women wore in the early 90s making them look uglier than they should have been are better garments than the odd futuristic designs presented at this Moscow show.
This past week's solar storm delivered only a glancing blow to earth-- but delivered a warning of impending doom in the future.
Maybe next year.
Two years..
20 years.
100 years.
No matter what year, it will happen someday, some time, in the future. Near or far. And boy do we hope it is indeed far, far away.
