11452. arkymalarky - 10/22/2014 3:01:54 AM RIP Ben Bradlee 11454. judithathome - 10/22/2014 4:34:36 AM And Oscar de la Renta. 11455. robertjayb - 10/22/2014 6:25:01 PM Trying to follow shootings in Ottawa. A BFD? 11456. robertjayb - 10/22/2014 6:36:29 PM The BBC yesterday:
"Canada has raised its terror threat level from low to medium but has stressed there is no specific threat.
A government official said the move was in response to an increase in online "general chatter" from radical groups including Islamic State and al-Qaeda.
On Tuesday a Muslim convert was killed by Quebec police after deliberately hitting two soldiers in his car, killing one and injuring another.
A minister said it was a "terrible act of violence against our country"."
11457. judithathome - 10/22/2014 8:43:59 PM Evidently, the bar is rather low in Canada...kill one, national emergency.
I don't think NYC or Boston would be impressed. 11458. judithathome - 10/22/2014 11:43:04 PM Well, it has driven the hysteria over Ebola off the news screens...when did television become incapable of following more than one "breaking story"? 11459. iiibbb - 10/23/2014 3:59:54 AM Can they even follow one? 11460. judithathome - 10/24/2014 9:30:27 PM High school shooting in Seattle WA...lots of reporting that starts with "We know nothing of what is actually going on but we are reporting, regardless..."
From what I have gleaned...high school Freshman who was a shy, nice kid... 11461. judithathome - 10/29/2014 7:07:01 PM Unmanned rocket explodes on lift-off in Florida: Really? We Need To Study Pea Shoots In Outer Space? I Have News: No One LIKES Peas!
The "lifters" were re-conditioned Soviet products...it's come to this: America is SO anti-science and NASA programs have been cut so drastically that we are reduced to using discarded Soviet products. 11462. judithathome - 10/30/2014 12:07:57 AM I certainly hope that headstrong young healthcare worker doesn't get Ebola...she has stated today that she will defy the quarantine orders of the state of Maine and leave her house if she "wants" to by tomorrow.
She's citing the Constitution...well, sweetie...this is EBOLA, not a meeting of the local DAR. Get effin' REAL, okay? 11463. arkymalarky - 10/30/2014 12:35:12 AM it was a commercial launch by a company called orbital science. 11465. arkymalarky - 10/30/2014 12:36:29 AM haha! don't know about the nurse. 11466. iiibbb - 10/30/2014 3:57:33 AM She's been tested for Ebola and is asymptomatic.
The Maine Governor said they'll arrest her if she defies the order. Who's going to touch her unless they think she's safe enough to touch... and if she's safe enough to touch... why is she being quarantined... and if they do arrest her... where are they going to put her?
And what if she never has it.
Fucking stupid. 11467. arkymalarky - 10/30/2014 4:32:26 AM The Maine governor is known for being a little bit out there. 11468. iiibbb - 10/30/2014 5:43:15 PM She's made two forays without being arrested. Governor posturing busted.
Now she just has to make it the 3 weeks without actually getting Ebola. 11470. arkymalarky - 10/30/2014 5:57:04 PM of course, before the man from Liberia, doctors and nurses had been going back and forth treating Ebola patients for literally years. 11471. iiibbb - 10/30/2014 6:58:46 PM But if she did happen to get it... people will freak out and the Teabola idiots will feel vindicated. 11472. judithathome - 10/30/2014 11:01:37 PM Face it, she is getting what she desires out of this: attention. And a possible gig with FOX News.
Whatever, I hope someone gets hold of her and gets control of those ridiculous eyebrows. 11473. judithathome - 10/30/2014 11:05:23 PM Face it...Duncan's family was put in a 21 day quarantine because if they hadn't been, Texans would have lynched them, more than likely.
And they never developed the virus...neither did they carp and moan and defy the requirement that they be monitored.
This woman is an idiot. Pure and simple. The very definition of Andy Warhol's axiom about 15 minutes. 11474. judithathome - 10/30/2014 11:06:50 PM Apologies for the over-use of "face it"...it's late in the afternoon. Sundowners. ;-)
