The Mississippi Press reports there is much "community anger" as a result of Governor Haley Barbour's commutation of the life sentence of Michael David Graham, who was convicted of murder. Graham has served 19 years of his original sentence. But a spokesman for Barbour is declining comment saying, "We've released all of the information we are going to." A policeman who was once of the first to arr

I’ve been writing about my great anticipation for the Oregon Country Fair for some time on the rose city journal and this weekend, it finally arrived. In days of yore, the fair was a much-anticipated event. And it was exciting to go back again, for the first time in years. As always, the fair is like two separate events: a daytime fair for the public, and a midnight show for friends of the fair

Sunday night and time to clean my brushes and turn this machine off! I've been working on a few commissions these past few days. One is a gift so of course I can't share it until after the surprise is delivered.

Online Casino Reports has recently placed a prediction on futuristic odds betting site, Long Bets, namely that casino gambling will be available on the moon by 2040. We've reported that much right here on our blog, only about a week or so ago. Well, we're still kind of excited over this. It is more the fun of placing such a (quirky? outrageous? ridiculous?) prediction; we do our best to keep le

In the last post I explained to you what an Arpeggio was and how to use it, but I didn't go into exactly how a guitarist may want to use it. If you remember, I had explained that an arpeggio is the same as picking out the individual notes of a chord. The example that we worked with was out of the B minor chord, but I didn't take it any further than that, because I didn't want to cram too much

Health is truly treasured and the importance of good health is truly valued by people who have experienced illnesses or diseases in their family. There is more to it.

However there are certain sickness

Continuing the West coast ride storyIt was few minutes over 2.30PM when we reached Sringeri, my second visit in a month's span. Late enough to miss the darshana at the temple.

From the Associated Press: "A St. Clair County judge has ordered a former death-row inmate to spend life in prison without parole for the 1994 killing of a Belleville convenience store clerk.

Williams was convicted of first-degree murder in 1996 and was given the death sentence. That

Lance Griffin of the Dothan Eagle has written a great little article on former Alabama Attorney General Richmond Flowers (D) who also ran for governor in 1966. Flowers was convicted on federal charges of extorting payments from life insurance companies in return for being allowed to do business in the state in 1969. He was sentenced to 8 years in prison and fined $10,000. But Flowers claimed the c

In 1967, Eugene Blake was convicted for the murder of then 18-year-old Donna Jean Ball. Blake was sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole. But in 1976 Gov. Arch Moore (R) commuted Blake’s sentence to "life with mercy" and opened the door for the possibility of parole. Five rounds in front of the State Board of Probation and Parole were unsuccessful, and a sixth application (in 1979)

From: Tony the Pious? Well, unlike Tony, I am not one of those Christians who have had ever an audience with His Holiness the Pope and it is a while since I attended Church. But let me see, if I cast my mind back to my humble Christian upbringing, the Bible said, "Thou shalt not bear false witness." Hmm so, if you want to be a genuine Christian, lying is out then. But hey, perhaps that's wh

Alexander Revisited: The Final Cut (2007) DVDRip Review: Oliver Stone is not a man to let things go. He struggled for years to make a film version of the story of Alexander the Great, which probably made it all the more crushing when Alexander was released in 2004 and became the season's pop cultural whipping boy. The film landed in theatres with a thud, having already been judged in the press

Debra Jenner has been denied parole seven times, but, will seek her freedom once again next week. In 1987, she stabbed her three-year-old daughter, Abby, 70 times with a Chicago Cutlery knife because the child was "fussy" (read more about the details of the murder here). In 2003, Jenner admitted her guilt in taped interviews and former Governor Bill Janklow (R) commuted her sentence to 100 years in prison. Chief Deputy Attorney General Mark Barnett opposes her release, however, because he says Jenner privately tells fellow inmates that she is innocent. As such, the 50-year old's sentence will end in 2039, with good behavior. Jenner's original sentence was life without the possibility of parole.

Hope for the Blue Planet: A Conversation with Edgar Mitchell, Ph.D.VM: How can Social Healing contribute to environmental awareness? EM: One of the fundamental principles in my understanding confirms the mystical notion that we're all one; we're all interconnected and the universe is all connected in some way. The study of quantum physics brings this notion into play; when we start realizing that we're all part of the same pattern. The physical reality of our world and universe is that we are all interphysically connected, which is a part of the epiphany I had in space. Using this notion to help us understand our environment, we can answer the questions of who are we? Where are we going? How did we get here? What is this really all about? And it's about our relationship to the c

Bowling instances of intervention from the dark force. Bowling is one of the most loved participant sports ever. However, unknown to many people, bowling also has a dark side that silently lurks within the confines of every alley; waiting... Bowling a Bomb The dark force works in mysterious ways. While this tale could not be confirmed - probably due to the embarrassment of all involved - causing panic in the mist of crowded public transportation is not beyond it's capabilities. The year was 1958 in Syracuse, NY. An unnamed bowler boards a public bus with her bowling ball in tow, headed for the local bowling center. The vehicle was almost full and our kegler was forced to make her way to the last seat in the rear, whereupon she placed her bowling bag, broken zipper and all, on the floor nex

Waterfall Revisited..., originally uploaded by RMStringer. I went back and wanted to do the "waterfall" thing again after knowing a little bit more about my camera. I used the same waterfall that i located in the fron of my neighborhood. I shot the photo in Shutter Priority this time. The results were amazing. I achieved the desired effect that is wanted when shooting waterfalls. The water is slowed down and it gives a milky look with the surrounding area in sharp focus.

Now with the Ravens, he’s been ok, but not special. Kelsay is a good starter on the defense. The same goes for Crowell and McGee, who's made a Pro Bowl as a return man. Lee Tunnel, 5 years late

On Wednesday our Cake-loving member received Cloverfield from Netflix, which we came home and watched after a League business meeting/pizza outing. It was a lot better than I'd thought it would be going in, as I hadn't heard anyone say a nice thing about it besides fellow Leaguer Onyx. In the end, there were too many points where the characters grated on me or their actions didn't follow any sort of logic to keep me from really loving it, but I can't say I wasn't entertained for 80 minutes.The movie really made me think of a Blair Witch Project with a much bigger budget. I'll come clean: I'm a big Blair Witch Project fan, and still feel the movie doesn't receive the credit it deserves. Even taking the low-budget blockbuster and insane grassroots marketing phenomena away, it succeeds as a c

Three weeks ago I spent too many hours on a post that took a look at what it took to get onto Entrecard's Popular page, which at the time consisted of the 30 Entrecarders with the highest ad prices. Shortly thereafter, Entrecard changed the ad pricing system and the Popular page ceased to exist, replaced by a Popularity ranking number for each blog. There is still value to being in the top 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, or 120 (depending on the Browser tab default) in Popularity, as your Entrecard will be seen by more folks. The Popularity ranking is currently determined as it was before, by the number of drops your widget has received in the past 5 days. I thought it would be interesting to see how the ad pricing system changes impacted the 30 Entrecarders whom I had previously highlighted. I'm usin

Update to a January 2007 articleI receive many emails from people who are considering moving to/retiring in/investing in/looking for work in Honduras. I'm always a little surprised, thinking to myself, "Well, if you read my blog, do you really think I'm going to recommend it?" Life is hard in Honduras for so many reasons, even when you have the money to live a comfortable lifestyle. On the other hand, I appreciate your confidence in me to give you the 'straight scoop.'While I enjoy hearing from people and I've made some good friends through these correspondences, I'm just going to have to say that I can no longer give that kind of advice.First, I'm not qualified to answer many of the questions.

Each time I return to San Diego, I try to visit some of my favorite spots. One of my favorites is the Hotel Del Coronado located across the bay from downtown San Diego. This structure and its surrounding grounds are absolutely beautiful especially when the sun is gleaming down. You will be spoiled once you have stayed in this popular vacation resort. The entire experience along with enjoying the nearby white, sandy beaches and spectacular view of the Pacific Ocean will linger in your memory for a long time. In my painting, I show two hotel guests relaxing under the trees in the shade with part of the hotel rising in the background. 11" x 14" ink and watercolor.

In August 2005, the Georgia State Board of Pardons and Paroles granted a pardon to Lena Baker. The Board believed Baker should have been charged with voluntary manslaughter instead of first-degree murder. The twist was that Baker had been denied clemency once before, back in 1945, and went on to became the only woman ever executed in Georgia's electric chair. Her final words were, " "What I done, I did in self-defense. I have nothing against anyone ... I am ready to meet my God." Actress Tichina Arnold is now playing Baker in "The Lena Baker Story," a featured film at the Atlanta Film Festival. See story here and here.

The rampant sexual abuse and emotional traumatization of children by the U.S. government, or at its direction, is one of the country’s best kept secrets.

From Bloomberg:Securities sales by UBS AG, the world's largest money manager, and Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. underpinned a rally in financial stocks that may signal an end to eight months of market turmoil.UBS, battered by the biggest writedowns from the collapse of the U.S. subprime mortgage market, announced plans to seek 15 billion Swiss francs ($14.8 billion) in a rights offer to replenish capital, while New York-based Lehman, the fourth-largest U.S. securities firm, raised $4 billion in a stock sale.The fund-raising plans quelled speculation the companies might follow New York-based Bear Stearns Cos., which agreed to sell itself last month to JPMorgan Chase & Co. for a fraction of its market value after a run on the company. Investors looked past Zurich-based UBS's 12 billion-S

In this editorial, looking back on the governorship of Reuben Askew (1971-1978), Martin Dykman notes:In another defining moment, Askew in 1975 approved a full pardon for Freddie Pitts and Wilbert Lee, blacks who had spent 12 years in prison, eight of them on death row, for another man's crime at Port St. Joe. News that he was considering the pardon was poorly received in the Panhandle and cost him votes in his 1974 re-election.A later study by the Florida Commission on Capital Cases concluded 23 inmates on death row in the state were wrongfully convicted. See the Commission's study here.

Dick Morris has written an editorial which argues Bill Clinton made "a significant admission" in Texas earlier this month when he said that he had decided to pardon Puerto Rican terrorists (FALN) in 1999 "based on the stuff" he was given to him "by the staff." Morris suggests the "clear conclusion" is that "it was Clinton's political staff who pushed for clemency - with the obvious goal of helping Hillary Clinton's bid to become a New York senator." Morris also reminds us the New Republic learned that, two days before the president announced the clemency deal, New York City Councilman Jose Rivera "personally presented" Mrs. Clinton with "a packet on clemency, including a letter asking her to 'speak to the president and ask him to consider granting executive clemency' to the prisoners."

You can never be certain about the twists and turns of judicial systems, particularly as they operate in other national jurisdictions.Here in the UK, the new Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007 is about to come into force. For convenience, I have referred to it elsewhere in this newsletter simply as the "Corporate Manslaughter Act"Since it is untested in the courts, there remains a degree of uncertainty in regard to its application, though we are able to make a fair assessment of its likely impact on UK businesses and other organisations.From directors down, if you have any responsibility for health and safety in your organisation, then it behoves you to learn as much as you can about this new legislation and ensure you are well prepared for it.more...

The Board of Regents will soon vote on the appointment of Ross Margraves Jr. to the Texas A&M at Galveston's Board of Visitors. Margraves is a Houston lawyer, Galveston property owner and avid Aggie fundraiser. What makes it all interesting is that, in 1996, he was also convicted of using a state-owned plane for a personal trip while serving as a member of the board. In 2003, Margraves' felony was pardoned in a 9-to-8 vote taken by the Board of Pardons and Paroles. Gov. Rick Perry then endorsed the pardon. Margraves says the previous conviction "doesn't have anything to do with this." See story here.

Mostly everybody that's hardcore in the gym has heard about and maybe even tried the 300 workout. You know...the workout "King Leonidas" went through to look all chiseled out. Warning to those that don't know...this is not a workout for people who are just starting out! This workout will break you down physically and mentally and most will definately feel it the next day. Of course, if you're a glutton for punishment...be my guest, lol. It's even claimed that the 300 workout is so brutal, that the breakdowns it causes muscle fibers could be enough to be toxic to the kidneys...damn. Don't feel rejected if you're a beginner...you can still do this workout, but not at the intensity of someone who is great shape. It's recommended that you start slowly with this workout, build your way up. The

OK, so overnight I sent a couple of guys to take the ugly boxes out of the scene and this morning I redid the painting. Seriously, I did not like the boxes there at all. They started off being the steam clock, then they became a newspaper dispenser, and then just boxes. Non of these worked, so they had to go. I like this version much better.Funny, but with Watercolour you don't have the luxury of editing as you do with other media. I love the freedom!

In a recent post (here: Arkansas: Pardon Revisited), PardonPower discussed the case of the former Attorney General of Arkansas, Steve Clark, who now desires to be mayor of Fayetteville. Problem is Clark is a convicted felon. Good news is that he was pardoned by former Gov. Mike Huckabee, in 2004. It is now contended that Arkansas Supreme Court rulings suggest that a pardon alone does not make Clark eligible. The attorney for the secretary of state says an expungement of the conviction is required before Clark can run again. See story here.

So my very favorite #1 fan wrote me an email earlier and asked me to send him pictures of myself in my camo bikini (they are on the way, *wink wink*) and also if I could please point him to my very first post.I was so flattered but then I remembered why I took my whole "Offensive Archive" down!!You see, The Offended Blogger started out not as a humor blog, but as a political and social commentary blog.That's right!!Believe it or not, I wasn't always this funny. ;)Actually, my original goal with this blog was simply to point out just how offended and offensive our little planet was. I would scour the online newspapers daily looking for 'offenses' from all over the world, and sometimes I would find so many it made my eyes bleed!On a good (or rather, bad) day, I would blog upwards of 20 or mo

Just lately it seems to be the fashion amongst writers on the internet to compare and criticise operating systems. While one user talks up the merits of Ubuntu Linux versus Windows Vista on her blog, another is quick to criticise Ubuntu’s lack of user friendly features and available software. In this article I am here to sing the praises of the old dog Windows XP. Once the all singing all dancing multimedia darling, XP is now the older brother of the much younger and trendier Windows Vista. While Vista can be the life and soul of the party, it is still very much a problem child for many users who are frustrated with incompatibilities, poor driver support and degraded performance in multimedia applications and games. If, like me, your Vista experience wasn't all you hoped it would be, rea

Steve Clark served as attorney general for the State of Arkansas from 1979-90 and was widely considered to be a potential Democratic nominee for governor in 1990. Then an investigation found that he had spent $ 115, 000 in such a way that he was eventually convicted of felony theft. Clark resigned from office and was fined $10,000. He was also ordered to pay restitution and court costs. In 2004, then-Gov. Mike Huckabee pardoned Clark, who is now an instructor for the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners. Clark also collects fees to give speeches on addiction, ethics and the law. Now, he is considering running for Fayetteville mayor. The Arkansas State Constitution prohibits those who are convicted of embezzling public money or “other infamous crimes” from holding any office of trus
