Diogenes "Some have little power to do good, and have likewise little strength to resist evil" (Samuel Johnson).

Smilin' Irish Eyes User ID: 656642 United States 08/11/2010 09:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Imagine dark ones have a "laser" that they use from space to create Hell in Earth. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1063668But at least their president got up in an airplane and helped to put out two of the fires. But yikes, I didn't know it was that bad either.

Mark 13:20 And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect's sake, whom he hath chosen, he hath shortened the days. “Things fall apart; the center cannot hold.” Yeats |
Fry User ID: 1064262 United States 08/11/2010 10:44 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Imagine this, guys, with all that wood burnt up, what alternative fuels will they use to keep warm this winter? Yeah, that's right, natural gas and electricity created using natural gas/oil/coal. There was never going to be a peak oil because the earth makes oil every day. But with all these resources dwindling quickly, and damn, I mean quickly, with oil rigs falling, tankers getting dunked under water, wells bursting, it all makes sense now. They are creating a peak oil situation. |

The Lemon User ID: 832032 Canada 08/11/2010 10:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Local Russian commercial and governmental mass media are not providing actual real-time information for the general public. In the case of a fast-moving wildfire there would be no chance to inform people via mass media about emergency evacuation. Furthermore, there is no official of Medvedev's administration personally responsible for providing emergency information of this kind.[55] In some cases there is no information about burnt villages for two weeks. [56] Volunteer's site "Виртуальная Выкса" (Virtual Vyksa)[57] was fully blocked by authorities for some time. [58]. According to a poll found in the Vedomosti newspaper, 68% of people trust online media such as blogs, 28% trust independent media and 4% trust government media. [59] [link to en.wikipedia.org] |

BRIEF AND TO THE POINT User ID: 381742 United States 08/12/2010 08:42 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Holy shit! God hates Russians!! Poor people do poor people things, and rich people do rich people things. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it! when you rob Paul to give to Peter ... ... ... you will always get Peters support! :Brieffromnativea: |
