  1. He shouldn't have pumped those other rounds into him unless the teen still was a threat. Once he did this it went beyond self defense to murder. They'll never get 1st Degree Murder. Probably Voluntary Manslaughter arguing "imperfect self-defense".

    A. The robber was off-camera, so there's only the victim's word for what he was doing, and the reports are that he is claiming the robber was still trying to point his gun at him.

    B. This is Oklahoma, one of the most common-sense-conservative states around. There's a basic idea that once you hold a gun up and threaten a person, you've pretty much tossed any right to live out the window. Arguing about how many bullets a store owner used against a robber who pointed a gun at him is something they may worry about in New York, but in Oklahoma, it's only a matter of being wasteful of bullets.
  2. All the online news sources are reporting that (in my words) an unidentified white male exercised his "freedom of choice" to abort mass-murderer George Tiller. What is really offensive is that this monster was executed while serving as an usher at "church", which would obviously be one of those pseudo churches that are really nothing more than satan worshipping heretic posing as Christians.

    Arrest Made in Shooting Death of Abortion Doctor at Church, Source Says

    WICHITA, Kan. ? A Wichita city official says a suspect is in custody in the shooting death of late-term abortion provider George Tiller.

    The city official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly about the case. The official did not provide additional details.

    An attorney for Tiller, Dan Monnat, says the doctor was shot Sunday as he served as an usher during morning services at Reformation Lutheran Church. Monnat said Tiller's wife, Jeanne, was in the choir at the time of the shooting.

  3. I set up a page for her at http://BeginPad.com (http:/BeginPad.com/LindaCarlton) so she has all her favorite links as soon as the browser opens up. She used it for a few hours yesterday, then went back to Windows XP. She says she can't tell that much difference in using it, but more of her stuff is available on XP. There've been plenty of times she's sat frustrated, wanting to quickly check something out, but couldn't because XP took 10 to 15 minutes to boot, or even froze mid boot. This looks like a solution that'll work.

  4. Anyone else tried out Presto? I saw a review of it and my wife's been having problems with the laptop (running Windows XP) loading very slowly (10 minutes or more) so I downloaded the trial version and it seemed to work very well although pretty slimmed down. I went ahead and bought a license (it's only $19.95) so when she's in a hurry she can get to the internet or her email faster.

  5. When an over-zealous social worker threatens to take your child away from you unless you stop homeschooling, how is that less than waterboarding? When the police invade a home, kill the family pets and threaten to place the parents in jail unless they conform to some arbitrary interpritation of the law, how is that less than waterboarding. Each of these are done frequently in the US. But Liberals seem to have no problem with that.

  6. The mechanic says the rear end needs to be rebuilt and it'll cost around $750. He said it'd be ready by tomorrow afternoon, so I had to scramble to find the money. Fortunately I've had several new clients, but they won't be paying until the first, and the bank won't process the checks until Monday or Tuesday. My dad agreed to loan us some money until next week so we can pay for the repairs. The mechanic usually doesn't take checks, but he's made an exception once before for us. Hopefully he will again.

  7. I had the kids at Master Club tonight when Jonathan started to cry - hard - saying his head hurt. This went on for just a little bit, and I decided to just take all the kids home. Half way home, Jonathan threw up all over himself and his car seat. YUCK!

    Pray he gets better quickly. He has been sick a lot lately.

    Thanks
    Has his pediatrician checked his adrenal glands. It really sounds like he's having an adrenal crisis.
  8. I wasn't that impressed. even though the wife did a lot of terrible things, she never apologized or asked for forgiveness. The entire burden was pushed on the husband. They also never really established the cause and effect between the main character and his mother. It seemed she was being a nag, then out of the blue, she's the mistreated hero. I didn't get that either. The actor who played the main character's father was a really poor actor. He sounded like he was delivering a seminar with every line. It seemed low budget in the production and directing.

  9. I got a 250g external drive from newegg for $60 and the complete backup from my remaining 120g hard drive only takes 16g. The nightly backups take an average of 100m, so I do a fresh backup once a week and do the progressive backups nightly.

  10. It may be a bit anecdotal, but when we moved from the Southern Baptist Church we were attending, at least four other families did as well. The church we are now going to is a Bible church, not part of a large denomination, therefore we would be in the numbers of the "dwindling members" because they would count us as having left a SBC, but not as having joined a church that isn't part of one of the big denominations. In that sense I see what the author is saying, although he does it a bit pejoratively.
