Referee Penalizes High School Wrestler for Praying Before Match

February 15, 2013 at 10:52pm

In reply to rwinestock.

Matthew chapter 6:

5 When you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, who love to stand and pray in the synagogues and on street corners so that others may see them. Amen, I say to you, they have received their reward.
6 But when you pray, go to your inner room, close the door, and pray to your Father in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will repay you.

Wow, Did That Dodge Ad With Paul Harvey Talking About Farmers Rock the Super Bowl

February 3, 2013 at 11:34pm

My initial reaction to this on FB follows. Note that this just popped in my head and I do not mean to imply that Fiat or Chrysler is involved in the destruction of family farms. However, I think it’s a good thing to ask when a huge multi-national corporation tries to play on a tradition that is dying out in order to sell vehicles that will most likely be bought by people with no attachment to farming whatsoever.

“While this is admittedly a great commercial, I have to wonder how many partnerships Chrysler is involved in with companies that have lobbied for and used government subsidies to destroy the family farms that are portrayed herein.”
A Portrait of Epidemic Cocaine Addiction in Brazil’s ‘Crack Lands’

I don’t understand. Brazil has very effective, common sense gun control measures. How did that child drug dealer get such a menacing street howitzer?
Bullied Teen ‘Honored’ at Support She Received After Cruel Homecoming Prank: ‘Happy As Can Be’

I think the pranksters will get theirs – probably when they see her at reunions in 10 to 20 years.
‘National Scandal’: Is Britain’s Binge Drinking Epidemic Indicative of a Deeper Social Problem?

I’d just like to debate your mischaracterization of libertarians. Libertarian != libertine, nor are we all humanists, relativists, and secularists. Nor do we want people to go and be self-destructive. We only want to pursue methods of reducing the impact of bad behavior in ways that don’t lead to the destruction of civil rights by the state.

@Choctaw – if you really believe that we weren’t interventionist in the Middle East prior to 9/11, then you are the stupid one.
Does ‘World War II Evacuee’ Costume for Young Girls Cross the Line?

October 28, 2011 at 8:19am

I don’t who is dumber – the people making the wild assumptions about British children “empathizing” with Jewish evacuees for PC purposes or The Blaze editors for not spelling out what should be a fairly simple explanation of the history behind this.

Let’s see – perhaps there’s a reason these are often mistaken for a Lucy costume. Maybe, just maybe that’s because Brits in the cities (who had the means to do so) sent their children to the countryside during the Battle of Britain where they were less likely to be blown into little bits by a gift that goes boom from the Luftwaffe. Lucy and her brothers and sisters represent these “evacuee” children. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH JEWS OR YELLOW STARS OF DAVID!!!!
F-16s Intercept 75-Year-Old Woman’s Plane During Obama’s Chicago Bash: ‘I Was Just Flying Around’

“Either way, she should lose her license over this but she needs to be admonished officially for failing to take care of the basics of General Aviation.”

Methinks you have no idea what the basics are yourself. As already mentioned, VFR requires no plan of any kind to be filed. Even if she was going on a long cross country, that would be a good idea, but not required. The only thing I might criticize her for is not checking the NOTAMs, but if she’s used to flying in that area and it’s normally completely unrestricted, I can understand how she got a little sloppy and went even though she couldn’t look up anything on the computer.
