The erosion of The Posse Comitatus Act began...
HERE>(Little Rock, Arkansas) To comply with the Brown v. Board decision, plans were made to integrate Central High School in September of 1957. When nine black high school students arrived to attend Central High, they were met by an angry crowd. Despite his pledges of cooperation, the governor of Arkansas, Orval Faubus, in fact, ordered the Arkansas National Guard to keep the black students, known as the "Little Rock Nine," out of the school. Faced with this defiance of a federal court order, President Dwight Eisenhower responded by sending troops from the 101st Airborne to Little Rock with orders to protect the nine students. Eisenhower also federalized the Arkansas National Guard. This marked the first time since Reconstruction that federal troops were sent to the South. This incident was the first of several in which the governor of a state refused to ensure a peaceful process of integration and thereby forced the President of the United States to act.

Or when they send you a picture of you speeding/running a red light, simply mail back a picture of the check you wrote out for the ticket. that has happened, they just send back a picture of handcuffs and a jail cell. |

This is why I refer people I meet to GotQuestions.org;
http://www.gotquestions.org Their answers are checked and double-checked, clear, and written plain enough that most people can understand them... I hadn't read their question of the week yet... Thanks for sharing... |

the interesting thing is, our bible tells us basically the same thing. it warns of letting women get to far ahead of themselves. the bible itself says that the man is the master and the woman must obey. tell me you would hate that situation. ha.... Maybe we should put them in a steel-cage, let the two of them duke it out to be the beast of Revelations? I can deal with a woman that wants to be boss... just go get another one... Idiotic politicians and rulers, I cannot... |

..."Iran can present new ideas and views, which the world will need in the future, he added."

Whew... Hypoglycemia is dangerous! Glad he is alright... Our Prayers are going out still for you and your Family... Bro Clark he does not have hypoglycemia.. hes a diabetic As a technicality; For people with diabetes, a blood glucose level below 70 mg/dl is considered hypoglycemia. Once it hits 70 mg/dl, blood sugar levels can drop drastically. Diabetics develop a condition called Hypoglycemia Unawareness. They often don't realize the signs, or even when they develop symptoms that they are in trouble. Less than 50 mg/dl is considered critical. On the Ambulance, our Protocol was to give Glucose if capillary (metered) blood sugar was anything 80 mg/dl or less. Your son's level at 32 mg/dl was way below critical. http://diabetes.niddk.nih.gov/dm/pubs/hypoglycemia/ (I suffer from "Fasting hypoglycemia" and had my level drop to 34 mg/dl... I swore no more, never again! It is a terrible feeling... I now have to check my sugar 2X day, or if I feel faint/weak.) thank you, im also a diabetic and when i dont feel good i check my suger more than once a day, i dont have low level that often. he seem to be good this morn, but i told my sister to check his suger more through, and he has dialysis later today(for his reg run) for they had a issue with his arm on wed so they couldnt do the treatment so he went in yesterday(thrusday) and did it. we were also thinking that sense his schedule was messed up that could had been why his level was way ouf wak I would imagine his schedule being messed up might cause his sugar to be low... We'll keep you all in our Prayers. {{{{Hugs}}}} |

Mo' money fo' da' cities where ya' gets busted drivin' high. Yeah... Yeah.... THEN they could put a limit on posession... say a quarter ounce at a time, seize anything more than that, then sell it on the open market. Not only would they get the tax money at the start, they would get the fines from that, then 100% profit+taxes on the sale of the seized pot... By George, I think they're onto something here... No pot-head with any self-respect would sport only a 1/4oz. Wouldn't keep them high enough, much less, sharing with friends. That's why I said limit to 1/4oz. |

..."State revenues would be derived from a $50 per ounce levy on retail sales of marijuana and sales taxes."
$50 per ounce?... ... ...On second thought, that seems fair... |

Can Marijuana Help Rescue California's Economy?
By:ALISON STATEMAN / LOS ANGELES Alison Stateman / Los Angeles – 53 mins ago Could marijuana be the answer to the economic misery facing California? Democratic State Assembly member Tom Ammiano thinks so. Ammiano introduced legislation last month that would legalize pot and allow the state to regulate and tax its sale - a move that could mean billions for the cash-strapped state. Pot is, after all, California's biggest cash crop, responsible for $14 billion in annual sales, dwarfing the state's second largest agricultural commodity - milk and cream - which brings in $7.3 billion annually, according to the most recent USDA statistics. The state's tax collectors estimate the bill would bring in about $1.3 billion in much-needed revenue a year, offsetting some of the billions in service cuts and spending reductions outlined in the recently approved state budget.

To be honest, although I have seen them in the '50's, I couldn't remember for the life of me... My brother (The NASCAR nut and former mechanic) told me what it is... I did.. He says you're welcome! The Hudson Motor Car Company made Hudson and other brand automobiles in Detroit, Michigan, from 1909 to 1954. In 1954, Hudson merged with Nash-Kelvinator Corporation to form American Motors. The Hudson name was continued through the 1957 model year, after which it was dropped. THAT'S why it looks so much like a Hudson... |
