As a survivor of sexual abuse it irritates me when i see things like this. It's like the salem witch trials all over again, except this time its sex offenders. People who did not commit a sex crime should not be on the list. The only thing that will do is ruin the rest of their lives, cuz now people will wonder even if they are removed from the list. My heart goes out to you... You are correct... The sex-offender registry should be just for Pedophiles and Child-molesters ONLY! ![]() Most of their attention should be keeping up with them! ![]() the do include offenders of raping adults as well ![]() I apologize for this oversight... It was an unintentional error on my part! no need to hun. my son is a product of a date rape....that's why i mentioned it As an EMT, I have witness some gruesome crimes against Childrem and those who couldn't possibly even start to defend themselves... ALL resulting in the Death of the Victim(s)... (Ranging from 6 months-85 years old...) There are some SICKO'S out there!!!! ![]() ![]() ![]() |

#6. Mauve Dye (1856)Mistake Leading to Discovery: Delusions of grandeur
Lesson Learned: Real men wear mauve In 1856, an 18-year-old British chemistry student named William Perkin attempted to develop a synthetic version of quinine, the drug commonly used to treat malaria. It was a noble cause, but the problem was, he had no idea what he was doing. Perkin started by mixing aniline (a colorless, oily liquid derived from coal-tar, a waste product of the steel industry) with propylene gas and potassium dichromate. It’s a wonder he didn’t blow himself to bits, but the result was just a disappointing black mass stuck to the bottom of his flask. As Perkin started to wash out the container, he noticed that the black substance turned the water purple, and after playing with it some more, he discovered that the purple liquid could be used to dye cloth. With financial backing from his wealthy father, Perkin began a dye-making business, and his synthetic mauve colorant soon became popular. Up until the time of Perkin’s discovery, natural purple dye had to be extracted from Mediterranean mollusks, making it extremely expensive. Perkin’s cheap coloring not only jumpstarted the synthetic dye industry (and gave birth to the colors used in J.Crew catalogs), it also sparked the growth of the entire field of organic chemistry.

Sitting in a saloon one Saturday night, an up and coming gunfighter recognized an elderly man standing at the bar who, in his day had the reputation of being the fastest gun in the West. The young cowboy took a place next to the old-timer, bought him a drink and told him the story of his great ambition. 'Do you think you could give me some tips?' he asked.. The old man looked him up and down and said, 'Well, for one thing, you're wearing your gun too high. Tie the holster a little lower down on your leg.' 'Will that make me a better gunfighter?' asked the young man. 'Sure will,' replied the old-timer. The young man did as he was told, stood up, whipped out his 44 and shot the bow tie off the piano player. 'That's terrific!' said the hot shot. 'Got any more tips for me?' 'Yep,' said the old man. 'Cut a notch out of your holster where the hammer hits it. That'll give you a smoother draw.' 'Will that make me a better gunfighter?' asked the younger man. 'You bet it will,' said the old-timer. The young man took out his knife, cut the notch, stood up, drew his gun in a blur, and then shot a cufflink off the piano player. 'Wow!' exclaimed the cowboy, 'I'm learnin' somethin' here. Got any more tips?' The old man pointed to a large can in a corner of the saloon. 'See that axle grease in the can over there? Coat your gun with it.' The young man went over to the can and smeared some of the grease on the barrel of his gun. 'No,' said the old-timer, 'I mean smear it all over the gun, handle and all.' 'Will that make me a better gunfighter?' asked the young man. 'No,' said the old-timer, 'but when Wyatt Earp gets done playing the piano, he's gonna shove that gun up your ass, and it won't hurt as much. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Just sayin'... Lilith, if she did exist, was too busy out whoring around with satan, spreasding disease, and was NO help to Adam... Besides, IF there is NO GOD, then there was NO Adam, Eve or Lilith... CR..... think about Hera, or Zeus, or Orcs, Jaws, anything really. We talk about these characters interchangeably and at times as though they are real. (Us non-religious people do) But, continuiing the devil's advocacy (as is my duty) ![]() ![]() ![]() SUMBODY gotta tell us when to; Turn right! Turn left! Slow down! Watch that car! Pick up your clothes! Put them in the hamper! Get your feet off that table! Don't get your socks so dirty! Don't wipe your hands on your jeans! Quit snoring! Comb your hair! Wipe your mouth! That grill's too/not hot enough! Get on your own side of the bed! You're late getting home! Why must you burp like that!? Not tonight I've got a headache! You need to cut them Toe-Nails! On your way out, take out the trash/Garbage! Take my car to the car-wash! Get your own da** beer, you've got two good legs! On your way home pick me up some Tampons! Et cetera, Ad nauseam./u] Disclaimer #1 The preceding are honest-to-GOD statements I have personally heard, not just one time, but over and over!

it is bothering you at least a little bit because you keep bringing it up but lets not delve to deep as to get more people stuck on it, but really do you not agree that the subject of inbreeding stems to family trees and that comes down to the fact of how mankind came about. ![]() At least inbreeding would explain the mess we're in right now with the economy... ![]() Since it can't be blamed on GOD... ![]() Hmmmmmm... Or can it?... ![]() ![]() |

see even the mention of Lilith get at some people I can only Imagine what would happen if we start the debate of are we all inbreeders because we come from the same two humans or not because we are the product of millions of years of natural selections Not got at me... ![]() Just sayin'... Lilith, if she did exist, was too busy out whoring around with satan, spreading disease, and was NO help to Adam... Genises 2: v20 ... but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him. ** **Still going on... ![]() Besides, IF there is NO GOD, then there was NO Adam, Eve or Lilith... |

Well I guess when you get right down to the history of it if you believe in evolutionism and that species evolved from different single celled organisms that asexually reproduced then yeah you have a very strong opinion on why inbreeding is wrong, If your a creationism believer and go by the book of Genesis then your going to have a hard time convincing me that inbreeding is bad, I guess one of the points you could have would be is that Adam and Eve were Gods ultimate perfect man and woman and as we keep inbreeding we become more imperfect. I am the least religious person I know.... ![]() Wasn't Eve "allegedly" part of Adam's rib 'cus he got peeved at Lilith and cast her out? ![]() NOPE!... ![]() 18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. 19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof. 20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.** **Still going on... ![]() |

When I lived in Florida, there was a Man and Wife, with their three Children, attending a Church near me... Both Parents had been adopted.
One Christmas, one of the Ladies of the congregation, who was big on doing "Family Trees", who thought it would be wonderful to find these folks' "Birth "Families"... Their Natural Parents. Turns out, they were Brother and Sister! For real! NOW Whaddya' do? What about the Children? They had no way of knowing they were siblings, since they were raised in different towns. The Church insisted they get a divorce (An Annulment would have the more proper term.) They just quietly moved away, somewhere else... Never knew what became of them. In another case, there, a man had Fathered a Daughter, at about 15 years old... but never knew it. (The Mother had blamed it on someone else whom she married.) Anyway, the Father and Daughter met, married and had Children. One of the children needed a blood-transfusion... That's how it was found that they were related... NOW Whaddya' do? What about the Children? They put both Father and Daughter in jail... Don't know what the outcome with that one was... I moved before the case was settled. ![]() My main point is: Both of these cases were HONEST MISTAKES... Neither Couple were "Druggies or Drunks"... What are the odds that they would meet, fall in love, marry and have Children? |

"...Today, there are more than 500,000 sex offenders who are supposed to be registered in the U.S.; however, it's believed that 100,000 of these offenders are 'lost' in the system..." ![]() http://www.amw.com/features/feature_story_detail.cfm?id=464 Seems to me they ought to be out looking for the ones who have actually commited Sexual Crimes against children , and are, REAL predators , before they go adding more of these to their lists.

hey, i think we need to be considerate of those people who live in the central midwest part of our country. it's not their fault that their options are limited. . . . Inter-city and ghettos are full of it... Half-siblings all over.. ![]() Most people can't travel out-of-state to find someone who's NOT related to them. ![]() |

I don't know how to spell the noise I just made when reading this thread. It was kinda between a spit out something nasty and you just smelled bad milk noise. ![]() Me too, except I had a mouth full of coffee... Most of which is in my sinuses now... ![]() NOT ON HERE, but in real life: Having helped do several people "Family Trees", "First-cousins" were the most prevelant as far as being married... Having done Counseling and hearing people confess their sins to me when their consciences got overloaded... you don't want to know. ![]() |

Insurance giant AIG to pay $165 million in bonuses
By MARTIN CRUTSINGER, AP Economics Writer WASHINGTON – American International Group is giving its executives tens of millions of dollars in new bonuses even though it received a taxpayer bailout of more than $170 billion dollars. AIG is paying out the executive bonuses to meet a Sunday deadline, but the troubled insurance giant has agreed to administration requests to restrain future payments. The Treasury Department determined that the government did not have the legal authority to block the current payments by the company. AIG declared earlier this month that it had suffered a loss of $61.7 billion for the fourth quarter of last year, the largest corporate loss in history. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner has asked that the company scale back future bonus payments where legally possible, an administration official said Saturday. Read the rest: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090315/ap_on_bi_ge/aig_bonuses "...The Treasury Department determined that the government did not have the legal authority to block the current payments by the company." "... Where legally possible???" Don't we have a Supreme Court anymore???? They tell US PLAIN FOLKS what to do! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

If someone has the IM turned off, it doesn't show in their profile. Neither does it show when someone is in stealth mode or not online. A problem for IMs not going through could be that the other person has a pop up blocker enabled. It has to be disabled when you want to use the IM here. And... They are probably ignoring you. They have to "Accept" your invitation to "Chat". ![]() |
