were, but if they were not, it would go along with my theory, because
Quebec has 29 fracked shale gas well leaking methane. Large volumes that

of slow immunological progressions you get death in the area where a

come down (formaldehyde)- mj/Assad laid out terms for a peace plan that

of the biggest and most elaborate falsehoods ever sold to the American
people. We were told that the taxpayer was stepping in – only
temporarily, mind you – to prop up the economy and save the world from
financial catastrophe. What we actually ended up doing was the exact
opposite: committing American taxpayers to permanent, blind support of an
ungovernable, unregulatable, hyperconcentrated new financial system that
exacerbates the greed and inequality that caused the crash, and forces
Wall Street banks like Goldman Sachs and Citigroup to increase risk
rather than reduce it. The result is one of those deals where one wrong
decision early on blossoms into a lush nightmare of unintended
consequences. We thought we were just letting a friend crash at the house
for a few days; we ended up with a family of hillbillies who moved in
forever, sleeping nine to a bed and building a meth lab on the front lawn
Money wasn't the only thing the government gave Wall Street – it also
conferred the right to hide the truth from the rest of us. And it was all
done in the name of helping regular people and creating jobs. "It is,"
says former bailout Inspector General Neil Barofsky, "the ultimate
bait-and-switch." "We need $700 billion," they told Brown, "and we need
it in three days." What's more, the plan stipulated, Paulson could spend
the money however he pleased, without review "by any court of law or any
administrative agency." The White House and leaders of both parties
actually agreed to this preposterous document, but it died in the House
when 95 Democrats lined up against it. For an all-too-rare moment during
the Bush administration, something resembling sanity prevailed in
Washington, Wells Fargo reported a third-quarter profit of nearly $5
billion last year, while JP Morgan Chase pocketed $5.3 billion – roughly
double what both banks earned in the third quarter of 2006, at the height
of the mortgage bubble. As the driver of their success, both banks cite
strong performance in, you guessed it, the mortgage market-Let the
Secretary of the Treasury become the nation's banker. With the Internet
replacing Congress. Both parties do the bidding of the industrialists and
bankers as it is. The Senate and the House have become their instrument
enriching themselves at the expense of the public while the president and
the two parties wring their hands. All the people have to do is get rid
fo these middle men and govern the country directly. At least that way,
we can blame ourselves, rather than these stooges in Congress and the
bankers they serve-$7.7 TRILLION dollars of secret money funneled from
the Fed to the banks (insider trading that is supposed to be illegal),
and you are worried about 0.12% spent on the poor? Get a life, or maybe I
should say, get a heart-in this very article, the launch of the Tea Party
as a political movement came when that buffoon Rick Santelli jabbered and
screeched on CNBC about the bailouts going to aid the poor and minorities
who entered into bad loans. He said nothing at all about the bailouts
going to help entrench the oligarchy and kill community banks and
businesses. That Tea Party is full of racist idiots who hate President
Obama, who hate non-white people and poor people, who live in their
closed-world echo chamber of Fox and Limbaugh, believe that guns are the
only thing they need, and still (after all this time) believe that rich
people have a god-given right to get richer, even when their riches come
directly at the expense of these racist idiots-Big banks, oil, ag, pharma

Steubenville is in Ohio. All 12 minutes center around the group’s drunken

dry as the sun right now.” Jezebel’s Katie J. M. Baker took the time to
transcribe some of this bile: At around 4:15, one of his friends says,
“That’s not cool bro” and “That’s like rape. It is rape. They raped her.”
He starts cracking up and riffs on that too: “They raped her quicker than
Mike Tyson!” and “they raped her more than the Duke lacrosse team!” “What
if that was your daughter?” one guy says. “But it isn’t,” he says. Other
choice quotes include: “It isn’t really rape because you don’t know if
she wanted to or not” and “what if she was pregnant and gave birth to a
dead baby?-I am very uncomfortable with Anonymous as a group that is
perhaps a little drunk with power in it's vigilante roll. In this case,
these guys deserve to have their lives ruined, identities stolen, college
careers crippled, future employment stunted, etc. All the things
Anonymous is good at doing. Women (and men) who are raped can be some of
the most victimized victims in society. Personally, I find rapists more
disturbing than most murderers. In the United States we execute murderers
with as an "eye for an eye" concept. We "steal" years from thieves by
sticking them in prison. Maybe that "revenge attitude" isn't right, but
what do we do to a rapist to make them feel the pain that a rape victim
and her family is going to feel for the rest of her life? We stick them
on a registry. Just a tad lame. So, Anonymous, this time I won't give a
damn if you ruin the lives of a bunch of teenage boys. They gave up their
rights to privacy and dreams when they decided to forcibly take those
things from another-debate about ethics, Anonymous taking the
law into its own hands and potentially incriminating and violating the
privacy of those individuals for simply expressing a point of view no
matter how palatable that point of view has once again risen to the fore.
Nevertheless it is becoming increasingly apparent the degree of power
(rightly or wrongly) social media is having on bringing justice to the
fore outside of traditional forums, despite enticement from authorities
and general increasing media interest in the story. The assertion of rape
has also led to the school being divided with many refusing to believe
the girl involved because of possible hidden agenda to wreak havoc on the
football team and the view that she had simply made up details or
embellished the incident (at jakes house)scallywagandvagabond.co-This is

is a suspect in the mysterious death of Rasputin, the 'notoriously evil'
Russian monk who greatly influenced the Tsarina-continued on as
supervillain in the comic book series Hellboy. After being assassinated
by Prince Felix Yusopov on December 16, 1916, Rasputin was revived and
contacted by the Ogdru Jahad. They enlisted him as their mortal agent in
the world. Soon after, Rasputin was contacted by the Nazis to begin
development on an occult method for ending the war. From this, Project
Ragna Rok was born. The Nazis sought to use Rasputin to defeat the
Allies, but Rasputin knew this would never happen. He merely intended to
use the Nazi’s resources as long as he could to achieve his own goals: to
trigger the apocalypse which would jumpstart a new Eden.
In Hellboy: Seed of Destruction Rasputin first appeared in a cradle the
Beast of the Apocalypse for the Nazis during World War II. When the
summoning accidentally placed the creature (Hellboy) in the hands of the
Allies, Rasputin retreated to the Arctic Circle. He returned in 1994 with
Sadu-Hem, a monstrous spawn of the Ogdru Jahad, in tow. Rasputin's goal
was to use Hellboy's stone right hand to free the Ogdru Jahad from their
crystal prisons and permit them to raze the earth- -He wasn't a monk. And
