Most of my regular readers can make a guess as to how I will vote in November. Whether you agree with me or not, if you're qualified to vote in the United States, please register now and do so then. Please.
It's one thing to be cynical and disillusioned. It's quite another to abdicate your responsibilities. Maybe there's no good choice. But there is a choice, and not voting is the worst one.
JESSICA ALBA'S latest Declare Yourself advert, which aims to encourage young people to vote, has been released and it's quite gruesome.

Declare "Laundry Bankruptcy" to Get Clothes Under Control [Getting Real] Having a washer and dryer in your home doesn't always translate to having an organized system for cleaning and storing clothes. When the piles start climbing out of their baskets, the Unclutterer blog recommends making a visit to your local laundromat—the one you probably wrote off as an artifact of the past. By doing all your laundry in one shot, and saving some serious time while you're at it:Go once to the laundromat, get all of your clothes washed, and then get started on your new laundry routine at home with a clean slate. To complete the laundry bankruptcy plan you can do your laundry yourself, or you can use the Fluff-N-Fold service that most laundromats offer.Whether the surcharge for Fluff-n-Fold i

Sin embargo, la defensa del ex presidente reiteró que su patrocinado no declarará porque la sentencia de extradición no se lo permite.

Many of those people who decided to declare bankruptcy felt that they had no way out of their debt. It has become overwhelming and seemed hopeless. While there might have been other options still available these folks went with a familiar solution. In a way, it is understandable. Yet was it necessary? If you are in a bad debt situation where no matter what you try, it seems like the debt load grows heavier. You, too, may be considering bankruptcy. You need to think again because the consequences can be costly.Most financial advisors say that bankruptcy should only be used in extreme cases and only as a last resort when very other method has been exhausted. How do people get into such a mess? A major source of debt is the credit card. It is far too easy to accumulate a tremendous card balan

So why do insurers make such a song and dance about it? Well put simply, insurers argue that the medical cover provided by a travel insurance policy is there for emergency cover and is not a substitute for private medical insurance. There are specialist products on the market for private health care and all that travel insurance is covering for is the unforeseen medical emergency that might occur whilst on holiday and provide for hospital care in country and repatriation if required.Once back in the UK, patients can then use the NHS or individual private health care plan they may have in place. This allows travel insurance policies to have lower premiums than their private medical insurance equivalent though these premiums do vary considerably by area visited and the much higher medical co

“Not all the treasures of the world, so far as I believe, could have induced me to support an offensive war, for I think it murder.” — Thomas Paine
One of the many consequences of our current political climate, in which war seems to be almost endless, is that people are often driven to ask fundamental questions about the powers of war.
We must keep in mind that the Constitution was written under what’s referred to as “positive grant.” In short, this means that the only powers that the federal government can exercise are those specifically listed in the Constitution. Many of the founders were so concerned about this issue that they wrote the Tenth Amendment to put the concept of positive grant into writing.
“The powers not delegated to the United States, by the Constitution, nor prohibited to it by the States, are reserved to the States, respectively, or to the People.”
It is here clearly stated that the United States Constitution rests on a stric
Andrew Strauss has been mulling a declaration
England have declared their first innings after reaching 533-5 in the first Test against West Indies.
Andrew Strauss' side are totally in command of the clash at Lord's having posted a mammoth score after two days, with century contributions from four players.
Most notable was the debut hundred by wicket-keeper Matt Prior after he blasted runs off a lacklustre Caribbean attack in a bountiful session after tea last night.
He was joined at the crease for the final session yesterday by fellow centurion Ian Bell, who was happy to take a back seat as Prior hoisted the runs.
Strauss' declaration gives his bowlers a chance to make inroads into the West Indian batting order, although sunny conditions in north London mean that more runs may be on the cards.
Speaking after his dream ton last night, Prior admitted that what he had achieved had not quite sunk in yet.
"What an unbelievable feeling for me and a great day for England as w

WASHINGTON — Tony Blair will declare himself a Roman Catholic on leaving Downing Street, according to a priest close to him.

You’re not eating that! Put the phone down! Pull those earbuds out! And put down that bat; you’ll hurt someone!Lawmakers around the country are passing or proposing laws to regulate the grease your doughnuts are fried in, the calls you make from the road, what you listen to when you cross the street, even the bat your kid hits a baseball with.
Those of us who do not value freedom use the excuse that government passes these laws for our own good. That makes us no different than pets of the State. You can control where your dog or cat goes, what they eat; even where they crap. We are not dogs, we are not cats.
We are human beings. Humans are distinguished from the rest of the animal world by the ability to reason. It is because of this distinction that we have inalienable rights. When the State takes these rights away we are stripped of our humanity and relegated to the hierarchy of dogs, cats and turtles.
