This is one of many reasons why police should not be doling out their propaganda in schools.

911: Breaking News: BBC [possibly] Reported Building 7 Had Collapsed 20 Minutes Before It Fell?????
Posted by Claire CJS under Media, Politics, September 11th, Video[12] Comments
This is breaking news to me. Apparantly there are allegedly videos of BBC announcing that WTC7 had collapsed — while it was still standing in the live background video. This was over 20 minutes before the actual collapse. The video is circulating all over the internet. I’d include a Google Video link, but Google is removing new instances as they pop up so it would be pointless. (Some links included below:) (more…)

ABUSE OF AUTHORITY/POLICE BRUTALITY: Keith A. Washington, a policeman also in homeland security, shoots 2 Marlow deliverymen who were delivering a bed to him! One dies.
Posted by Claire CJS under Abuse Of Authority, Articles, News, Politics[65] Comments
Keith Washington is a scumbag lowlife alleged murderer as far as I am concerned, and deserves a murder charge in my opinion. He is a Maryland police officer (and high-ranking homeland security official) who ordered a bed from Marlow. When the deliverymen came, one went in and Mr. Washington got angry with him over a scratched headboard.
The deliveryman went back out to the truck and called the supervisor, telling the supervisor how angry Keith Washington was. “He’s looking for a fight,” the deliveryman said. Then, both men went in to deal with the bed situation.
Keith Washington told them to leave, and as they were allegedly walking out the door, he shot one of them. The other tried to help the first, and also got shot. 3 times. 1 died.
Here is the coward cop killer actually having the gall to liken himself to a victim of sexual assault. Yes, those of us who have sympathy against people who are victims of sexual crims are supposed to be feeling for this killer cop. Yea right.
Here’s some background on cop killer Keith Washington: (more…)

So, here is a past story about John The Canadien‘s drunken antics. For the record, and in his defense — John has since learned how to drink properly (in 2006). But this story is from 2004, when he had… shall we say “problems” with his drinking. Read on for adventurse in drunken furniture molesting! (more…)

POLITICS: War On Terror vs. Universal Health Care?
Posted by Claire CJS under Iraq, Medicine, Politics, Science, The War On Terror[2] Comments
If we spend billions to fight a war on terror because terrorists are a threat to our life, and if the flu kills 20,000 Americans every year, then I must ask: Why are we not spending the money we spend on Iraq on universal health care? If the purpose of the war on terror is to protect human lives, aren’t there cheaper ways to do so? Obviously the real reasons for the war on are not what the administration likes to say they are.
Please don’t respond with arguments against universal health care. Americans are less healthy on average
than many countries that provide it. I’m not interested in that argument for the moment. I am interested in the fact that the money we spend to save 1 live from terrorism could save untold numbers of people from things as simple as the flu.

Two items. First, FlickR introduces email notifications, something for the RSS-Luddites out there (mom? dad?). Second, just to put a number on things, checks on phones and emails in the UK hit 439,000. The wiretapping here is likely much higher — we have a larger population. Read on for the links. (more…)

MUSIC/SOCIAL NETWORKING: ILike.com: bad idea for a social-networking site
Posted by Claire CJS under Audio, Clio, Media, Music, People, Reviews[20] Comments
Just another social networking website. This one hooks to itunes, so it is useless to me. But I manually added a bunch of bands based on my Last.FM charts. However, I think what they are doing is wrong. Last.fm provides tools suitable for everyone (even iPod users), but does ILike release something suitable for non-iPod people? No. Do they provide a way to import my last.fm data in? No. I am supposed to kiss 6 years trackloggng data goodbye? No.
I am fond of the blog sidebar that shows what songs I just played. That is possible due to WordPress, an open-source blog, using RSS, an open standard. Does iLike offer an RSS feed of recently played tracks? Would the same be possible? No.
I joined for critical mass (3-5 friends), but this site is a bad idea and everyone using it should be using last.fm. But it’s nothing I haven’t said before.
ILike is functionally inferior, and politically and morally inferior as well. (more…)

CONTRACTOR REVIEW: Ace Flooring — missed apopintment.
Posted by Claire CJS under Companies That Screwed Me Over, Complaints, House, Journal, Reviews[6] Comments
Ace Flooring – Sun Kang. 2925 Stillwood Circle, # 303, Falls Church, VA 22042
work: (571) 214-1100
Appointment for flooring estimate at 2PM today. Did they come? No.
They also aren’t listed on BBB or DPOR. We wont be doing busines with them. I would not advise anyone to make appointments with a company that can’t keep them.
The snow is no excuse. At least call. Now, Chase Flooring did indeed show up today and were very helpful. But Ace Flooring? Never showed up. These Asian flooring companies really need more original names….
