In the “I didn’t know file sharing was a dumb thing to do” category, a defense contractor in Maryland is going to be in hot water after it was reported that blueprints of Marine 1 (the Presidential Helicopter) have surfaced in Iran. An employee apparently installed peer-to-peer file sharing software on a computer which contained […]

There is a new book out written by Sister Jesme. She was previously the principal of a Catholic college in Thrissur before quitting last year. Her book details the allegations of a system of abuse within the convents in India ranging from mental and emotional abuse to physical and sexual abuse. You can read more […]

In the police brutality category, we have a video of Deputy Paul Schene attacking a 15 year old girl because she (quote) “was lippy” with him. Wow. That’s all it takes for a nearly 200 pound man to jump on a defenseless girl, yank her down by her hair, punch her, handcuff her, and then […]

In the “where did this guy come from” category, the new Chairman for the Republican National Committee has made some recent statements which are worth noting. Michael Steele, in a recent interview with radio host Michael Gallagher, stated that he has no intention of affirming support for civil unions or homosexual marriage. Whoa! I thought […]

George Tiller of Wichita, Kansas is one step closer to jail thanks to recent action by the court system in the state. Tiller is accused of performing abortions on unborn infants past the time allowed by state law. He is also accused of using other doctors with whom he had a relationship or financial arrangement […]

Found an article about a man who is deeply offended because his neighbor, who hunts deer, is processing the meat in his back yard. (You can read the article here.) What struck me about this was the quote from the man, Frank Hlatky (or Hladky — it’s spelled both ways in this news article…), in […]

Wow. Some legislators finally have collective conscience enough to do what the rest of the country has been too coward to address for decades. In case anyone out there forgot, you were once a “fetus,” an unborn child, a zygote, a whatever-term-you-want-to-use. People don’t spring out fully born. Even the Son of God was once […]

In the “should have used a Mac or Linux” department, the French Air Force was grounded because of a computer virus which wreaked havoc in their network. You can read the article here. It makes you wonder just how fragile all of these defense systems are around the world: “Mr President, please wait while we […]

Nevermind that the proposed new stimulus package is approximately $1,000,000,000,000 and loaded with government pork spending.  And let’s not stress-out over the fact that we don’t have any sound economic basis nor any historical precedent for expecting such a government program to improve our economy.  We needn’t be overly concerned with how careful and accountable our elected […]

I’m not a GoDaddy (aka PornDaddy) fan. I don’t appreciate the fact that they push porn as part of their “advertising.” That being said, I don’t register domains through them and wouldn’t choose to for these reasons — regardless of their price. I had a friend call me today asking me if it is possible […]

The article at this link details how a Florida abortion clinic worker placed an infant born alive at 23 weeks inside a biohazard bag and disposed of it as trash. The ironic thing in the article is the quote by the NOW local token quotable representative, Joanne Sterner, who stated, “I know that there are […]

In case you haven’t seen the bombardment, Michael Phelps was photographed and has admitted to smoking marijuana at a party in SC in November 2008. Although there is talk of charging him (see link), the general attitude seems to be, “Who cares?” I do. I watched Michael Phelps break world records at the Olympics. Young […]
