25 The New York Jets and other NFL teams have reportedly accepted $5.4 million from the Department of Defense to stage game day ceremonies honoring soldiers that are little more than publicity stunts.

Those of us go to sporting events and see them honoring the heroes, U.S. Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) told the paper. You get a good feeling in your heart. Then to find out theyre doing it because they re compensated for it it leaves you underwhelmed. It seems a little unseemly.

To be fair, a hundred years ago, lots of stuff put you in an early grave. In fact, living on a farm might have been healthier since living in a city at that time exposed you to all kinds of nasty diseases.

48 Here we see a clear representation of the patriarchy-enforced rape culture endemic to all male-dominated societies. The representatives of the patriarchy, symbolically portrayed in this painting as farmers, look on approvingly as the male cattle nonchalantly violate the passive and helpless earth, which is a clear metaphor for rape. Note the whip which the representative of the patriarchy holds in his hand, which he will use to ensure there is no hesitancy or pause for reflection by the other males on their violation of wymynkind, thereby reinforcing rape culture and punishing any man who would cease to unquestioningly participate, or even slow down in his participation.

Timber work even worse back then. I think a lumberjack's life expectancy in the California Redwood forest was less than 3 years.

Late term abortions are actually pretty pricey. There was a story a few weeks ago about a woman aborting her 36 week old (!!!!) baby at Hern's clinic in Colorado and she claimed she paid him 25k to murder her baby.

I liked it fine, but then I also liked Thor 2 first time I saw it but then hated it on the repeat. Avenger 2 is not my fave Marvel movie, that would be a tie between Cap 2 and Thor. Considering all the second Avengers movie had to accomplish story/char wise it's a rather nifty summer popcorn flick, but yeah there were probs.

134 "48
Here we see a clear representation of the patriarchy-enforced rape
culture endemic to all male-dominated societies. The representatives of
the patriarchy, symbolically portrayed in this painting as farmers,
look on approvingly as the male cattle nonchalantly violate the passive
and helpless earth, which is a clear metaphor for rape. Note the whip
which the representative of the patriarchy holds in his hand, which he
will use to ensure there is no hesitancy or pause for reflection by the
other males on their violation of wymynkind, thereby reinforcing rape
culture and punishing any man who would cease to unquestioningly
participate, or even slow down in his participation.

Posted by: Feminist art critic at May 11, 2015 10:45 AM (2Ojst)"

Great analysis except that an ox starts life as male but by the time it is plowing a field, it has been castrated much as the white oppressor class, fearing the sexual power of people of color, seeks to emasculate them by imposition of "proper" English grammar, "work ethic", Eurocentric concepts of private property and laws against so called "rape".

180 alexthechick @ 29: "Seriously, I am deeply regretting all those career decisions I made wherein I abided by the rule of law. I'm a fool."

For me, it's health insurance. Should people have health insurance? (By that, I mean pre-ObamaCare, when legally one had a choice.) I don't know. Insurance of any kind is a financial instrument, and financial matters are personal, so I balk before saying that anyone outside of my family "should" be insured.

My wife and I deemed it important, so we drove beater cars, and our vacations were rare and short, all so that we could buy health insurance. Then we'd listen to other people (owners of late-model SUVs, you know) talk about their trips to Ottawa or Italy or Maine or wherever but they couldn't get needed medical or dental procedures done because they don't have insurance because they couldn't afford insurance and how we (government, that is) needed to do something about that - which, of course, "we" did.

So yeah, I know a little about sacrifice and responsibility and following the rules and a small amount of subsequent regret.

It's not innocence. People are very, very uncomfortable with abortion past about 12 weeks. Showing them Obama advocating that a living baby be suffocated over 20 minutes is a major wedge issue.

It's a slam dunk for us, which is why the GOPe will say nothing.

Washington also faced calls to work toward abolishing the death penalty, push ahead with closing the Guantanamo Bay detention center and ensure effective safeguards against abuses of Internet surveillance. Its appearance before the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva is the second review of the US rights record, following the first in 2010.

A string of countries ranging from Malaysia to Mexico pressed the US to redouble efforts to prevent police using excessive force against minorities.

It's almost as though the news outlet set out to reduce a serious contender for the presidency to a cheap ethnic joke. (Curious: Did anyone treat Bill Richardson like that?)

Sounds like a stripper name. Too bad he was born with a dick; he could have had a higher-class occupation than "journalist."

283 My great grandfather emigrated from Galicia in 1896. At the time, Galicia was part of the Austria-Hungarian empire. Of course, my great grandfather was ethnically Polish. They settled in western Massachusetts to farm.

This painting could actually depict my great grandfather. Fascinating.
