I'm very sad to say that The Shrew passed away yesterday. I know there are some oldtimers here that would want to know and possibly share condolences and stories. He was one of the best.

So watching Obama's ineptitude in dealing with Russia's aggression to the Ukraine and Crimea, I keep asking myself - is this the flexibility Obama promised Putin once he got re-elected?

When Mitt Romney faced questions on the campaign trail four years ago about investments in firms engaged in embryonic stem cell research, the presidential candidate had a ready explanation -- he was unaware because his vast financial portfolio was under the control of an independent trustee. Last week, Romney's campaign pulled out the same explanation when ABC News sought details about the candidate's holdings in the Cayman Islands, a notorious offshore tax haven. "We remind you that Gov. Romney does not choose anything; these are BLIND TRUSTS," a campaign official wrote in an email. But government ethics experts and election...

Lloyd Christmas says there are literally hundreds of ambulances, police cars, helicopters, etc. stationed on every overpass and blocking traffic at every entrance to the airport. Nothing on the news. Anyone else see this?

RIO BRAVO, Mexico (AP) - Mexico's transfer of water from the Rio Grande to the United States has enraged farmers south of the border, escalating a long-simmering war over flows of the river in the arid region. U.S. farmers have long complained that Mexico wasn't fulfilling its promise under international agreements to release an annual average of 350,000 acre-feet of water a year to southern Texas. Mexico is supposed to send the flows north in exchange for 1.5 million acre feet of water from the Colorado River in the American Southwest. An acre foot equals nearly 386,000 gallons. Before President...

Gephardt Issues Order Making Himself President (2003-06-23) -- Just a day after announcing that he would use executive orders to overturn Supreme Court decisions, Rep. Dick Gephardt, D-MO, announced today that he has appointed himself President of the United States, effective immediately. "I have duly sworn myself in as president," he said. "Instead of having the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court administer the oath of office, I just issued an executive order effective retroactively in advance." President Gephardt has already issued an executive order making it illegal to "challenge the constitutionality of my reign as president."

When you're from Texas, people that you meet ask you questions like, "Do you have any cows?" "Do you have horses?" "Bet you got a bunch of guns, eh?" They all want to know if you've been to Southfork. They watched Dallas. Have you ever looked at a map of the world? Look at Texas with me just for a second. That picture, with the Panhandle and the Gulf Coast, and the Red River and the Rio Grande is as much a part of you as anything ever will be. As soon as anyone anywhere in the world looks at...

Doctors may have failed to cure multiple sclerosis because they have been treating the wrong disease, a group of scientists has warned. A trio of neurologists claims in the latest edition of New Scientist the conventional wisdom about MS is based on a different condition altogether, explaining why no cure has been found for the disease. The group argues that instead of the century-old belief that immune cells attack a protein that insulates nerves, MS is caused by support cells called astrocytes malfunctioning, possibly due to a combination of environmental and genetic factors. They claim the original animal experiments conducted...

— CHANDLER, Arizona (Reuters) - A small private plane was escorted to a local airport by two F-16 military fighter jets on Thursday after the pilot making his first solo flight mistakenly signaled that he was being hijacked, police said. The student pilot landed the single-engine Cessna 172 without incident at Steller Airpark in Chandler, Arizona, and a police spokeswoman, Emma Bribiescas, said, "It appears that this was simply a human error." The student, whose name was not immediately released, punched in the wrong code into a transponder when he left the small suburban airport, said Terry Van Dien, chief...

Climate Justice Summit Crater Wow! Where do I begin? This has been a memorable couple of days. First and foremost, I must thank everyone who participated in this counter-protest. Thank you for asking Freepers to participate.

Scientists in the US claim they've found an adult stem cell which can turn into every other tissue in the body. Until now, only stem cells from early embryos were thought capable of doing this. If the claim is proved, it will mean cells from your own body could potentially be turned into replacement tissues and organs. A team led by Catherine Verfaillie at the University of Minnesota made the discovery, according to New Scientist. Few of their results have been published but the magazine claims it has seen a patent showing their experiments have proved the adult cells have ...
