What would drive a man to end his family's life. This is sad news, brace yourselves. You've heard that Ervin Lupoes has decided to end his life and his family's. Authorities investigating this has mentioned the motive was because "he has no job and has five children". Taking matter into his own hands he has ended what else he has for permanent worry-free blackness.
America is so deep into recession today that citizens are looking at quickly getting out of the challenge. Huge companies have announced that they will make ...
Yes, most likely Iceland will appoint the world's first ever gay Prime Minister. An unprecedented appointment and will most probably send ripples of reactions world wide. But if you are to take a step back, gay people really should have equal rights, don't you think?
Negotiations are underway between Sigurardottir's Social Democratic Alliance Party and potential coalition partners. If they succeed, she will become interim prime minister until Iceland next goes to the polls, which must happen by May.
"We really warmly welcome that," said Gary Nunn, a spokesperson for Stonewall UK, a British ...
With a newborn son whose life I'm projecting way into the future, I've been thinking a lot about college lately. In the United States, going to college is the social norm. Everyone goes to college (pretty much). But should they? Let me point to three reasons why college is no longer necessary for success.
Actress Sienna Miller has won a case against a paparazzi photo published in the Daily Star. This photo was taken when she was waiting for an elevator in an LA building. The court ruled that Ms. Miller was clearly harassed and so therefore has decided in favor of Ms. Miller, this decision after viewing a video tape showing the actress as nearly in tears because of this incident. The photo was published early September.
In addition to the out-of -court settlement, the Daily Star printed an apology, saying it accepted that she was "extremely harassed and ...
She is Dara Grace Torres, an Olympic record holder winning 12 medals where 5 of which was won at the 2002 Sydney Olympiad alone. The only Olympic swimmer who represented her country (the USA) 5 times: 1984, 1988, 1992, 2000 & 2008. Oh yes, she is currently is 41.
She is just one of the many senior lady Olympians who are making great strides in the the 2008 Beijing games. Now who says age is a major factor in winning? I firmly believe that the will to win is the best motivation ...
While summer can be the fun-filled time of the year IT CAN also be a huge debt trap. Every year, Americans splurge on summer expenses like trips, hotels, summer clothing, gears, and gadgets. Oh and all those have-nots that people just "need" to make summer extra perfect.
Every mall will hand out "special deals" to hook you in and splurge all the more. The wise person will and must take one step back (even more) to weigh and assess their needs and wants for a fun-filled summer.
Let me list down usual debt triggers ...
Why you'd need to access a PC while floating at sea or in a pool is just FURTHER OUT THERE for me, but hey I'm not complaining. A lot of gadgets floating around today aren't really "that" useful either. I remember the Robots movie tag "see a need, fill a need"... some gadgets today go by this tagline "build a need, fill a need". So I guess this will work too. Build something and who knows, this might come out as standard in tomorrow's airline or ship's safety first-response devices. Don't worry about ...
I'm not really sure why Michael has been under the knife so many times. From his original frame (the Billy Jean Michael, that is) I feel there is nothing to work on. He's as celebrity as he gets. But ok, let me venture a guess that he may be have been given bad advise over and over. Yes, I'm a fan! I wouldn't just think he's as crazy as some people think. So yes, Jacko... you were given and you listened to bad advice.
While some would also say that doing it multiple times ...
We've temporarily moved to the mountains! Now I don't know what smiley to put behind that so let me list 4 in the order of how we felt about it.... :D :) :( :| :)
We ended up smiling of cours, taking life's "blows" one after the other. I keep picturing the great bamboo, how it is blown and bent by the wind only to return to its original tall state. Well, anyway, enough with the yada yada and let me move on.
I brought my trusty work Dell notebook with me and a Nokia E61i. I've ...
