Ken Strutin writes in his latest article as follows -"science has much to say about how individual behavior and group wide phenomena influence the core issues of criminal justice.

Indeed, there is one long continuum of cognitive realities that pervade every precinct of criminal justice. And now, scientific study and legal scholarship has uncovered hidden biases in the deliberations of justice as well as overt barriers to cognitive functioning associated with confinement. This article is a collection of research into the cognitive nature of criminal justice participants, the constraints of confinement, and the administration of justice." — Published February 29, 2016

I thought the team had to clean sheet and then to get the extra points your player had to play 75 mins minimum? West Ham lost so surely JC can't claim a c/s? In fact was he subbed?

Oh I see what you mean now Paul. No, a side must keep a clean sheet in the whole game to qualify for the extra points, and they must play 75 mins.

"REI sells tens of thousands of Novara bikes each year. We have a strong public record of proactively acting on safety issues with the products we sell and have worked closely with the Consumer Product Safety Commission to recall products that are determined to present a safety hazard to our customers. These actions include public and customer notification and any appropriate follow up. The record of these actions is publicly available.
"Jim's terrible accident more than five years ago was caused when a stick lodged in the front wheel of his bike during a high-speed ride with a pack of cyclists. The bike he rode was not recalled because independent expert analysis confirmed there was no safety issue with the bike and that the damage to the bike was the result of the crash, not its cause. Prior to any dispute with Jim and his family, we shared the results of this analysis in good faith and transparency. Nonetheless, Jim and his family chose to sue REI. The suit was resolved to the satisfaction of both parties.
"REI has served the bicycling community for 30 years with passion and integrity, and our products have a reputation for quality and reliability. All Novara bikes meet or exceed all industry safety and quality standards, and we fully stand behind the quality and performance of every Novara bike we sell."

Diabetes Health Center
Acidic Water Linked to Type 1 Diabetes
Sept. 11, 2002 -- Can something as simple as tap water have something to do with diabetes? A new study from Norway suggests that water acidity is linked to the risk of developing type 1 diabetes.
Type 1 diabetes generally affects children and young adults and accounts for 5% to 10% of all diabetes cases.
Researchers tested tap water from the homes of 64 children with type 1 diabetes and 250 of those without it. They found a link between cases of diabetes and water with high acidity levels. Acidic water was associated with a four times greater risk of type 1 diabetes. The study, by Lars C. Stene, PhD, and colleagues, is reported in the September issue of Diabetes Care.
No study has found a specific environmental factor for the cause of type 1 diabetes. And the report says there's no known reason why acidity level might be involved. Previous studies tested municipal water sources but not individual household tap water. The researchers say they believe this method is better because it takes into account different water pipes in different homes and other factors like use of filters or purification devices.
The researchers say acidity alone probably isn't to blame in this link with type 1 diabetes. They suspect it may be a marker of another factor, such as harmful microorganisms, which survive better in more acidic water. And they recommend further study, especially in other locations, because their results don't necessarily apply to other areas or countries.
Acidity is measured by pH. A pH of 7 is neutral, and below 7 is acidic. In this study, water pH levels of 6.2 to 6.9 were associated with type 1 diabetes.
This study only shows an association; no proven cause and effect exists. More research is needed to determine if water acidity is truly a factor in type 1 diabetes.

It was located in an easy area to get to versus being in the center of the strip. I liked this room set up better than our last stay. The has the spa tub when you walk in instead of behind the wall behind the bed that was in the center of the room. The bed was so amazingly comfortable I never had a backache once!! I need this mattress at home, STAT!! The hotel is a bit smokier than I like or compared to Bellagio for the Venetian but all in all not the worst I have been in.
The Broadway Burger was really good! We had a turkey burger and mnie was in the pita which was sloppy and very delicious. Garlic fries were great, other meals we ate at other places.

If you put down 3.5% for an FHA loan, that is right at around $4,000 on a $115,000 home. Like one other person mentioned you will need to find another way to cover your closing costs, which are often negotiated on the contract with sellers. But depending on the type of financing you choose and other factors, those can be around $4,000 as well.
If you have a bank you are comfortable with I would start there first. That will give you an idea of if you are financially ready to purchase a home. Then pick an agent that you want to work with to find a home.
If you have any additional questions I'd be happy to help, just let me know. Good luck!

Michigan (No. 12 ESPN/USA Today, No. 13 AP) or face a long offseason of taunts from critics who say they don't belong there. After breaking for Christmas, the
Longhorns are scheduled to meet the Wolverines in Pasadena, Calif.,
on Saturday night.
"There was a lot of debate whether we deserved to be in there
or not," said senior All-American linebacker Derrick Johnson. "We
have a little bit to prove. With all the hype around the game and
us barely getting in, we need to win this game."
"We welcome the naysayers, like we have all year," said
offensive guard Justin Blalock. "It's kind of fun to put it back
in their face."
Texas' Rose Bowl berth was one of the two flashpoints of
controversy in the Bowl Championship Series.
Undefeated Auburn getting snubbed from the BCS title game and
Texas' leap over Cal on the final weekend of the season -- even
though the No. 4 Golden Bears are ranked ahead of Texas in the
polls -- sparked a flurry of criticism.
But, after a third straight 10-win season, Texas players say
they deserved their first Rose Bowl berth.
They point to a tough schedule that saw them finish second in
the rugged Big 12 South behind No. 2 Oklahoma. Their only loss was
a 12-0 setback to the Sooners on Oct. 9.
After stumbling in some of their biggest games the last three
seasons, beating a program of Michigan's stature would help the
Longhorns gain credibility nationally.
"It's bigger than OU," said defensive tackle Rod Wright.
Several players said they want to win for coach Mack Brown, who
has been mocked in the media as a whiner for his late-season pleas
to poll voters to boost his team. Brown says he was merely backing
up a promise to his players that he would state their case for the
The Longhorns had come agonizingly close to the BCS in previous
years, only to get shut out at the end.
"Coach Brown stuck his neck out for us this year. Now I'm going
to put my neck out for him," said senior tailback Cedric Benson.
"This would be a big win for the program nationwide."
Brown said he appreciates the comments, but wants the Longhorns
to win the game for themselves.
"They got in because they deserved it," Brown said. "All I
did was ask people to look. Really and truly I feel like we should
have been in probably three of the last four years. I wish I had
made people more aware then, too."

Really enjoyed the tour. Very interesting different things and I had ever learned before. She spoke excellent English. Perfect length of time. Excellent way to preview the market and go back and see the things you and #39;re truly interested in at a later time. Do it early in your trip.

Surfer over Surfing. ESM is pretty cool and I agree Surfer's Journal is excellent. Or books, The Wave was cool by Susan Casey.

Slide , Surfers Journal, Surfer ESM , and TWS only cause I get it free cause i won some contest online for it
Slide is a really good longboarding mag come out only 4 times a year
Surfer Journal the articles are really good and they dont just cover the latest fad in surfing
Surfer I always liked it keeps me up to date in whats going on in the rankings not that I really care and it also it fun to read the letter people send in
TWS , like I said I wouldnt pay for it . It really kinda a ****ty mag and honestly it get old seeing guys bustin Airs on every page
'; pd[98999] = '
Surfing and Trans World - aimed at the under 25 crowd (not just my opinion - get their press package and that's what they claim). That's how these mags pitch themselves to advertisers. Pro surfer driven, aimed at the young guys who want the newest pro style boards, boardshorts, watches etc.
\nSurfer - Tries to have something for everybody. Pro coverage, some "soul" pieces, commentary on the sport. And overall they do a nice job. It's not easy pleasing everybody.
\nSurfer's Journal - Aimed at the "mature" surfer. Beautiful mag, often with some really cool pieces. Last year they did a wonderful story on East Coast and VB legend Bob Holland. It's a piece no other magazine would touch. But sometimes it just seems like a rehash of photos and events that Surfer ran 30+ years ago when SJ editor Steve Pezman was the Surfer editor. I wish they would look outside of their box a little more often.
\nThe Surfer's Path - My favorite at the moment. A little expensive, but that's because it's out of the UK. But don't let that fool you. It has a very "worldy" outlook that is FAR from the pro driven stuff in the other surf mags (SJ is excused here). Definitely more soul than the others. The last issue had TWO pieces about Fukishima. One about all the good breaks that used be near the nuclear plant, and a second one that was sort of "live" account from a surfer in Japan about the tsunami, and the aftermath. No other surf mag is going to do those pieces. Very well done too.
\nEastern Surf - It is what is. I love it because it gave me my first big writing break (I was a "Contributing Writer" for them another lifetime ago), and I have so much respect for how Mez and Dugan started cautiously and nurtured their project. That it's still going is really, really a tribute to them. They cover us like no other mag would dare to. And most time they get it right. I just wish it was a little less "grungy" sometimes (love ya Mez! ).
\nIn deciding on a mag - read the "Intro" pieces that the editors write in the front of each issue of the magazine. If you like the "vibe" that editor gives off, chances are you will like the mag. It's his/her editorial decisions that give the mag its personality.
\nKeep reading on!

ESM is great for east coast coverage nothing else compares, its free (in shops) but i think you can get a subscription for $20/year or something.
TWS is funny, cote makes me laugh while im on the ****ter. Surfers journal articles are for the long slow dumps.

I get both Surfing and Surfer. I think that they were cheaper than Transworld when I signed up but I like Surfing more because it is more about the lifestyle of surfing instead of the competion where the Surfer focuses on. I'm pretty sure I dont really differentiate I just look at them

looks like I am the only one who likes transworld...I like reading the surfer's journal while I wait on my fish tacos at rojo's in OC NJ too.

I get all three of the big U.S. mags. It cost me about $36 a year for all three, if not cheaper, get em all man, its like getting three presents once a month!
If I had to get one I would do Surfer, thicker mag, way better in the article department and plenty of east coast coverage when there is something to cover. Also they have a great board buyers guide, wetsuit guides, stuff like that wihich is nice to see whats new in the market. Surfer is the king, then Surfing, tTansworld a distant third.
But Transworld gives the best free crap. I got a pair of Sanuk flip flops with a $13 dollar sub to transworld. Just wait for the best free deal things. My Transworld had a subscription card in it last time you get a free T-shirt with a year script.
In fact i got two years of surfing and surfer for $24, thats the both of them for two years. Thas $6 a year for each.

Definitely Surfer's Journal or Surf's Path. Fewer ads, actual articles instead of weird MTV-like "be cool like us" vibes.
\nAnother one that's cool (albeit hard to find in the states) is Australia's Surfing Life. It's sort of an in-between...legit articles, but they have a lot of BS funny stuff as well. It strikes a good balance (like most things down under) between the Surfer/Surfing and Surfer's Journal worlds.
\nAll that being said...I don't buy any of that crap. Plenty of photo's online, and I'll drop by the Barnes and Noble and read the articles every now and then. I figure why spend the money at all if I can read them for free?

Sums it up very well!
\nI let my TSJ subscription lapse several years ago but renewed it about 6 months ago as increasingly there were articles of special interest to me. The bonus for subscribers: access to PDF files of all past articles, from Vol 1 to present. That makes the price worth it.
\nThe Surfers Path today is what Surfer/Surfing was in the 1960s/early 1970s. Interesting travel articles for the average joe, not the sponsored Roxy/Quicksilver team trip.
\nSurfer/Surfing/Transworld are full of advertising hype but obviously have a market.
\nSpend some time in a good bookstore browsing through your various options and find out what is right for you.

Recently various gedankenexperiments have been formulated which argue that the assumption that "elements of reality" are Lorentz invariant cannot be reconciled with standard quantum mechanics. Two of these gedankenexperiments were subsequently analyzed using the notion of pre- and postselected quantum systems, and it was claimed that elements of reality can be made Lorentz invariant if the "product rule" of standard quantum mechanics is abandoned. In this paper we show that the apparent violations of the product rule in these gedankenexperiments are not as significant as they appeared to be in the previous analysis. We conclude that the problems with Lorentz invariance which arise in these gedankenexperiments are essentially unrelated to the product rule violations.

Skip to comments.Megyn Kelly makes the Cheneys answer for being wrong on Iraq
Posted on 06/19/2014 7:10:57 AM PDT by SeekAndFind
It isnt just the left that is cheering Fox News Channels Megyn Kelly this morning, a day after she gave former Vice President Dick Cheney and his daughter Liz Cheney a sound grilling over Iraq, many on the right suspicious of an interventionist foreign policy are cheering her as well.
On Wednesday night, Kelly hosted the Cheneys for what was billed as a discussion about their new political initiative aimed at crafting criticisms of President Barack Obamas present approach to foreign policy. While there is much that is worthy of criticism in Obamas handling of foreign affairs, some, including AllahPundit, wondered if the Cheneys could serve as helpful messengers.
Kelly brought those concerns directly to the Cheneys. After reading a portion of a brutal op-ed which essentially accused Cheney of setting in motion the events which have led to the present chaos in Iraq, Kelly voiced her own criticism of the former vice president.
Time and time again, history has proven that you got it wrong as well in Iraq, sir, she said
Thats a little harsh, and its certainly a debatable point, but the substance of this interview is not what struck me. What was important, and is frankly undervalued by the rest of the political press, is how frequently the supposedly conservative news network veers off what many believe is their script. Whats more, when this sort of contentious interview with a prominent Republican occurs, Fox is rewarded for it by their core audience.
The opposite is not the case, according to a recent Pew Research Center survey on cable news viewers satisfaction with the product they are consuming:
One thing that differs when it comes to MSNBC is that it does not draw the same uniformly positive reviews from consistent liberals that FNC does from consistent conservatives. While nearly half (45%) of consistent liberals view MSNBC favorably, thats not much better than how MSNBC rates among those with mixed ideological views (38%). Nearly half of consistent liberals offer no opinion of MSNBC. By contrast, the vast majority of consistent conservatives offer an opinion of Fox News, with 74% favorable and just 5% unfavorable.
When MSNBC President Phil Griffin decided to turn his network into a liberal answer to Fox News, he was betting that there was a progressive audience out there to match the conservative faithful on the other side, Politicos Dylan Byers reacted. But people don't simply watch opinion channels because the programming matches their partisan views. The programming has to be compelling.
Yes, but its more than that. Having watched MSNBC evolve as a network over the last two years, it seems to me that their every answer to ratings challenges is strive to be even more predictable. It has become increasingly rare for an MSNBC host to go off the reservation of progressive thought.
Kellys interview of the Cheneys was compelling, but it was also contentious and tension makes for good television. It is possible that MSNBCs core audience simply does not appreciate having the members of their team challenged by those who are supposedly on their side. When was the last time you saw Chris Hayes or Rachel Maddow interrogate a Democratic officeholder from the right?
I'm through with Kelly and several other of the Fox newsbabes. I can't listen to their strident (word for the Day) voices and the way they talk over their guests. Who do they think they are?
Because they have plenty of other venues (ABCNNBCBS) for their particular slant. Who does the conservative have?
Nothing surprising about this, Kelly is a lefty Obama loving twit.
Kelly's attitude aside, was Cheney and Bush wrong to invade Iraq?
In other words, would the world be relatively safer with Saddam Hussein still at the helm?
That is still the question.
Megyn Kelly is using Roger Ailes , (FOXs CEO), Be the Devils advocate definition of Fair and Balanced questioning.
Top practitioners of this dont-forget-the-obsolete-Liberals-point-of-view Fair and Balanced method are as follows:
# 1. Neil Cavoto
# 2. Bill OReilley
# 3. Megyn Kelley.
Rarely do any of these three pseudo journalists have guests with none-of-the-above Conservative opinions allowed to appear on their shows.
These three Shows are a notch above MSNBC Shows.
Note to Roger Ailes:
Megan Kelly plays devil's advocate
Fox is getting the ratings, the credibility and, frankly, the Chemeys can take it, and they did - just fine. Bush and cheneys names are all over Iraq. So he had a chance to explain himself
These guys are journalists.
As the writer here says, fox does not fawn , as does msnbc
The thing that bothers me about fox is watching Bret baier and Greta giving Hillary a pass. They should have asked her the obvious , so what about a stupid video , since when do we apologize to our attacker?
What bothers me about Megan is her weird fashion
LOL. Last night she looked like she was going to the beach
Give Kelly points for being equal handed with Cheney. That is what I expect from a fair and balanced media. This examination of both sides of an issue is a refreshing change from what we hear from the Ministry of Propaganda media.
I like the fact that she comes at these interviews from all sides. That is good journalism. Conservatives should never be afraid of hearing varying opinions. We want the truth after hearing what everyone involved has to say.
How does Megan know we got it wrong? what if Saddam stayed in power, took over Suadi Arabia and Kuwait, killed millions and allowed terrorists to have a safe haven?
Almost all of our government and a substantial portion of the free world did not think so.
Iraq's current situation is the natural result of a subsequent administration leaving the job half completed. Is it logical to blame Cheney and Bush for that failure when they had absolutely no say in the matter?
Aside from the fact that each missile fired at our pilots constituted an act of war, I guess if you weren't one of those pilots, it was probably no big deal to you.
Obama Loves this Iraq Bull , the longer he drags it out the longer it will DISTRACT from his Scandals and when he finally does do something it will be just a stupid as the rest of his decisions
RE: killed millions and allowed terrorists to have a safe haven
Saddam did all that.
Not sure what his relationship with Al Qaeda is though.
I think invading Iraq was a mistake and done for the wrong reasons.
Fifteen of the nineteen 9/11 hijackers were Saudi Arabian so Bush Jr. decides to invade Iraq where, it just so happened, the man who plotted to assasinate Bush Sr. lived.
But if Kelly believes that Sadaam Hussein did not have chemical based WMD's she hasn't learned Iraq history very well.
It is a matter of documented fact that Hussein (Sadaam, not Barack) used chemical WMD's on his own fellow citizens.
Like you I wonder if the Bush administration went after the wrong target, although Saddam Hussein was very bad. Our country had been attacked and our response was very mild. A stronger president would have hit terrorist-supporting governments heavily immediately. We should have unleashed trained killers to wreak havoc among the terrorist cells themselves. Personal killing, body-parts on door-steps, children, wives....show them the meaning of anger. They said Bush had no b*lls and they were right. All that has followed shows we chose the wrong response to the attacks.
She was wearing a bathing suit.
It's a little irritating to hear Kelly repeat the claims of critics. But it is also good to allow the Cheney's ample time to refute those claims. That is the proper way to do it.
Why didn't we just nuke Mecca on 09/12/2001????
The other big question is what is we had not fought the First Gulf War???????????/
The questions bothered me at first but she gave them the opportunity to answer their critics and Cheney is a big enough guy to do it.
As I recall her last question was is Obama dangerous and Cheney said yes and it was left at that.
She is a lawyer and I recall deposition prep - you are asked the questions the other side will ask and you get your answers ready. I honestly don't see a problem with this.
RE: A stronger president would have hit terrorist-supporting governments heavily immediately.
Well, Saddam was not hit immediately, but yes, he was terrorist supporting.
In 1993, the Iraqi Intelligence Service (IIS) directed and pursued an attempt to assassinate, through the use of a powerful car bomb, former U.S. President George Bush and the Emir of Kuwait. Kuwaiti authorities thwarted the terrorist plot and arrested 16 suspects, led by two Iraqi nationals.
Iraq shelters terrorist groups including the Mujahedin-e-Khalq Organization (MKO), which has used terrorist violence against Iran and in the 1970s was responsible for killing several U.S. military personnel and U.S. civilians.
Iraq shelters several prominent Palestinian terrorist organizations in Baghdad, including the Palestine Liberation Front (PLF), which is known for aerial attacks against Israel and is headed by Abu Abbas, who carried out the 1985 hijacking of the cruise ship Achille Lauro and murdered U.S. citizen Leon Klinghoffer.
Iraq shelters the Abu Nidal Organization, an international terrorist organization that has carried out terrorist attacks in twenty countries, killing or injuring almost 900 people. Targets have included the United States and several other Western nations. Each of these groups have offices in Baghdad and receive training, logistical assistance, and financial aid from the government of Iraq.
In April 2002, Saddam Hussein increased from $10,000 to $25,000 the money offered to families of Palestinian suicide/homicide bombers. The rules for rewarding suicide/homicide bombers are strict and insist that only someone who blows himself up with a belt of explosives gets the full payment. Payments are made on a strict scale, with different amounts for wounds, disablement, death as a martyr and $25,000 for a suicide bomber.
Mahmoud Besharat, a representative on the West Bank who is handing out to families the money from Saddam, said, You would have to ask President Saddam why he is being so generous. But he is a revolutionary and he wants this distinguished struggle, the intifada, to continue."
Former Iraqi military officers have described a highly secret terrorist training facility in Iraq known as Salman Pak, where both Iraqis and non-Iraqi Arabs receive training on hijacking planes and trains, planting explosives in cities, sabotage, and assassinations."
There were efforts to make the connection to justify the invasion of Iraq as 9/11 related but, as I recall, none was ever documented as fact.
IMHO, the 9/11 attacks on the US were used as a pretense to take out Sadaam Hussein for other, more personal reasons.
Yes, he was a brutal man and heartily disliked. But there are a lot of brutal men in power, like in Saudi Arabia, that we live with. And there is at least as much brutality in Iraq now as when Sadaam was in power.
Good. We should never have gone in. Should never have stayed. And should never go back.
I loathe all "news entertainment" but Kelly was spot on here.
Go away "deficits don't matter and there are WMDs" Dick. People like Cheney got what they wanted out of the Iraq War. The myopic Dims think it was oil. Not even close. It was the Patriot Act ... America's vote for fascism and the Police State.
The Cheney's have done as much to damage this Republic as anyone. I wold send them and ODimwit to the Moon if I could.
Some people here cannot stand had questions He answered it We want Obama and Hillary asked these kinds of questions She has been all over the VA, Iraq,the IRS .she doing a good job if you ask me Better than BOR..
Megyn Kelly's "gotcha" brand of "fair and Balanced" is weak and offensive. She's rather self-righteous. I don't want "fair and balanced" if it's ambush, so-called journalism. I guess someone told her she was cute. Just give me the facts without all the garnish. I never liked "fair and balanced" or O'Reilly anyway.
This is a case of the lefty media desperately looking to run with something, anything for there main man Obama.
Megan gave a fair interview with the Cheney's. They can take care of themselves.
The shills are trying desperately to change the current meme on the Iraq debacle.
Was just listening to Van Holland pimp the idea that it's Bush's fault for going in there in the first place.
This is the current talking point they are trying to sell.
Maybe if the GOP opened their frigging mouths once in a while to combat this, we would get somewhere.
It's about time for McCain to come out and blame Bush too.
Well said. Some of Kelly's questions to Cheney were tough, but they were all fair. And the tough questions were asked respectfully. I see no reason to fault her performance. After all, it was supposed to be a real interview, not mushy, softball theater like what's on MSNBC.
I watched it, and I didn't think she was that harsh. She let Cheney defend his position pretty thoroughly without interruption, and the discussion then moved to Zero's dithering and destruction.
She also had a really good segment about the Bowe Bergdahl hearings. This congresscritter was asking a series of questions about the conditions that Bergdahl was living in at the time, what the situation on the ground was—basically trying to soft pedal the whole desertion thing. He was asking this of some military guy that wasn't even there. Then one of Bergdahl's platoon mates (Cody Fuller) finally could not take it anymore and asks the questioner if he could address the panel. The congresscritter has this somewhat annoyed smirk, sighs, and then agrees to let Fuller speak. Fuller then goes on to say, in summary, that if they want to know what the conditions were, he could tell them because HE WAS THERE. "I was right there with him. I was under the same conditions" It was great to see the look on that critter's face. I admire Fuller's restraint because I would have wanted to throttle them. He was sitting right there as the others were discussing the conditions as if they knew better than someone who was ACTUALLY THERE. Talk about arrogance.
Then she talked to Glenn Beck about his predicting the "coming" Muslim Caliphate a few years back, and how just about every media head pounced on him calling that prediction absolutely ridiculous, calling him a whackjob, etc., and how now they are all choking on their bile. Heh.
Personally, I thought it was a good show last night.
If people want Fox to be the Main stream media, they'll have to take all that goes with it.
Hannity was in that spot, he used to be on with Colmes for balance.
Hannity is fine at what he does, but it is not both sides. He's good in a later spot.
She's going to grill.
If anyone expects the cure for all of this leftism is a complete mirror image, they're wrong.
Conservatives can take the grilling, and the balanced view.
Doesn't everyone want to know what to say when people blame Bush?
Anyway, the public who relies on headlines, know that the Bushes have been out for SIX years, a\that it was never as bad as this when they were in, and have a feeling that this is not what Bush intended, are going to blame BO for squandering.
They just don't know it.
RE: There were efforts to make the connection to justify the invasion of Iraq as 9/11 related but, as I recall, none was ever documented as fact.
Well we have one fact — the uncontrollable Abu Al Zarqawi (Who even Osama Bin Ladin personally had to rebuke for beheading Nick Berg on video) was in Iraq and was killed in Iraq.
The question is — was Saddam harboring him in Iraq or did he go to Iraq AFTER Saddam's fall?
I say let them fight it out for the next 100 years get our people out now .Announce before hand if any group attacks us we will bomb the country to dirt women ,children everybody Like Japan 1945
"Kellys attitude aside, was Cheney and Bush wrong to invade Iraq?"
They were absolutely right to invade Iraq. With the intel that was coming in, it would have been negligent for any President not to invade Iraq, at that time.
The error was in sticking around to nation build. 250 killed in military phase. 4,200 killed in nation building phase.
The biggest lesson learned is that 1. Some cultures simply aren't ready to live in constitutional republics, and 2. Nation building is long, ugly and protracted and Democrats will come in and screw it up even worse.
Megan "Kelly" is a LEFTIST &%&( that ONLY has an "audience" because HORNY OLD MEN want to HOP IN THE RACK w/ her.
I saw that interview last night. Last time I watch that liberal obama-loving blonde twit!
When my 3 boys were growing up they liked to watch Fox News, but they preferred to watch it with the mute button pressed.
If Cheney must apologize, so should ALL the members of Congress who voted for it! Hindsight is 20/20, and the Cheney is being targeted for this crap.
Cheney had every right to criticize Obama's many & obvious failures.
I am disappointed in Kelly.
Was the gassing of the Kurds fake too?
Cavuto is always fair and balanced. That's how he gets so many to come on his show.
Ping me the next time that Cavuto DOES NOT trash a guest with the Liberal's point of view.
BTW, are Neil Cavoto and Mr. Ed from the MSNBC Hit Show "Mr. Ed Show" brothers or just cousins?

All of the above?
Kompakt is such a great label, I really like the pop ambient series. Of course, I also enjoy the dance oriented material from the label.
Absolutely!! Listening to, dancing to, mixing, reading about, talking about.... I love underground dance music. Being able to to check out some of my favorite DJs and discover local talent has been the best part of moving to LA.
I love underground dance music of all varieties. Discovering new music has been a a favorite pass time of mine for many years and I still find it to be incredibly fulfilling. Other than that I'm a pretty much a normal guy.

The BDSM is rather light, both the sex and the general behavior of the (supposedly) D/s MCs.
This story is also weak regarding the suspense. Suspenseful plot points were set up only to kind of fizzle in the end.
The final encounter with Ben would have induced much more nail biting if he'd told Drew's brother more about his and Beth's relationship. Simple fix - Drew's brother could have admitted--after the fact--that he was in the lifestyle, too (hell, he'd make a perfect Dom), but at the time, the heroine would have been internally freaking out. So would have the reader. And Drew's text should have come before we knew if he was injured by the explosion. Telling his side beforehand totally ruined that suspense.
*end of spoiler*
Bottom line, this is a good romance with great character development and a satisfying HEA, but it reads at a meandering pace and doesn't offer up much in the way of suspense.
This is my first Sherri Hayes book and I completely relate to her writing style.
I was drawn in and compelled to keep reading. The sex scenes were very well written and oh so hot. All of us ladies need a Drew. A manly hot fireman but yet sometimes submissive in the bedroom. Well I want one anyway.
I loved Beth because she is a Domme but she is a realistic character as well. She is a hard working independent female, but insecure in ways and protective of herself.
The dynamic of the two of them together was wonderful and I enjoyed the normal interactions between them and the normal progression of their relationship. Then you throw in the spicy BDSM and you have an amazing story.
Burning for Her Kiss is a well written enjoyable read.

S J Pinkney, the tax man, may have been relieved that Ms St Clair was safe and well in Papua New Guinea after disappearing on the eve of exposing the depraved lives of hundreds of MPs.
He may simply be looking forward to her return to ask how she enjoyed her first-class round-the-world trip on the cruise liner Canberra. But it is more likely that he is relishing the prospect of resuming his discussions over the prostitute's pounds 112,779.92 tax arrears.
Ms St Clair announced by fax that she would stand as a candidate for the Corrective Party, which she founded to campaign for prostitutes' rights, in the Newbury by-election.
The by-election was forced by the death last week of Judith Chaplin, the Conservative MP, but no date has yet been set for it.
The fax, from the Travelodge in Rabaul, Papua New Guinea, came a month after Ms St Clair's Jaguar was mysteriously abandoned at Beachy Head in East Sussex on the day that she told a reporter she was planning to publish a 'dirt file' on 252 MPs.
The subsequent stories about her apparently-faked disappearance had 'damaged' her integrity, she wrote in her fax, adding that she was 'gobsmacked' that 'certain parliamentary windbags got their Y-fronts in a twist (over) such ridiculous falsehoods'.
Sussex police, rumoured to have spent up to pounds 100,000 searching for Ms St Clair, were also looking forward to her return so they could discuss a possible charge of wasting police time.
'Arrangements are in hand to interview her on her return to this country,' Detective Chief Inspector Peter Kennett said. The presence of officers at the quayside was, he said, only a possibility.
Back at the Inland Revenue, no one would say how her arrival in Britain would be handled, or whether a Mr S J Pinkney would be there to welcome her home.
