The tragedy at the Grand Mosque of Québec has nothing to do with terrorist "à la Molenbeek" Belgian! It’s rather a hate crime tragedy of mass "à l’Américaine" as the shooting of the Church in Charleston is a mass murder (9) which occurred in June 2015 by Dylann Roof (21 years), a white supremacist extremist. (see on YouTube) The firing of the Grand Mosque of Québec is a hate crime killer of mass murder (6) which occurred in January 2017 by Alexandre Bissonnette (27 years) a white supremacist extremist & islamophobia (see on YouTube)

I'll admit the majority of outlets have a liberal bias if you admit Fox, Rush, etc are flat out propaganda. Last week Fox tried to claim Comey leaked classified info and never retracted what they spent 36 hours yelling about. Trump isn't a conservative. He is transparently self interested and we're in unchartered territory with this Russia scandal. The media hasn't changed, the GOP base has, due to watching propaganda.

What I might say to "nuclear man" is when you go see a doctor for a health concern, you see a specialist who also gives you options, and giving Canadians options is what has been missing from the Canadian National Energy Alliance, an American led corporation that is charged with this important task of managing wastes on the Chalk River site. CNL management has not only ignored contrarian views on the Near Surface Disposal Facility, they have demoted or removed CNL employees from their positions if they advance proposals and plans contrary to their own. I should know as I am an employee at Chalk River who has been marginalized and silenced. As for the cynical view that we stay for "pensions" or other financial reasons, I would point out that many employees are in the process of leaving CNL, and many bright lights have left already. There is not only a loss of faith the the President and CEO Mark Lesinski , but massive instability in the executive ranks with 4 executives now gone.

Palace intrigue. Chad Kelly could be worth millions in a few short years if he matures and displays the great arm and assassin's mentality he has shown at the college level. Kelly also has a lot to answer for after being the ultimate pick in the 2017 draft. You're right, Zorro Smith, the Denver Broncos need Kelly to step in quickly. Once he's acclimated, it would be great to see Denver's moribund offense pick up. Right now, the Broncos are definitely a three-downs-and-a-punt team. By the way, hold your breath when DeMarcus Walker takes the field. He should do what Adam Gotsis has never done: stop the run, push the offensive linemen back and hunt down the quarterback. After all, Walker is "the quarterback menace." Walker, though, has a sizable boulder on his shoulder since so many other defensive linemen were picked before him. He wants to rise to the top and what better place for earned glory than The House of the Horse? Long live Kelly. Long live Walker. Long live the Broncos. Yeeha!

" Firstly, I am not fixated on, nor am I carrying on a dispute with, Epeefleche, and I certainly have no desire to get into any conflict with them. If you are not prepared to accept that then my posting any further unblock request would be pointless.For what it's worth, my attention was drawn to the article in question by additions made by Epeefleche to several golfer biographies which are on my watchlist. I first posted a message on Epeefleche's talk page explaining the minor changes I had made to those additions to those articles to try and negate any potential for conflict. I also explained the obvious issue I had noticed with the inclusion criteria for that list, before posting on the article talk page. I do not think either of those edits were disruptive or confrontational in any way, and thought I had responded in a reasonable manner to all Epeefleche's comments, while trying to return the focus onto the article. I repeat, I do not wish to engage in any dispute or conflict with Epeefleche or any other contributor and that remains the case. I cannot be any clearer on that.I have acknowledged that I should not have engaged in repeated reverting, and I see how that could potentially inflame things even more than usual in this instance.Yes, my response to Greg L was over the top and I should have done as I usually do – don't click the save page button and just ignore it, but it's too late now. bigissue "

The irony, of course, is that a lot of Mexicans consider Pancho Villa a national hero, that the USA made an illegal land grab ("Remember the Alamo)" & a good thing there wasn't a wall across the Bering Straits, way back when. The problem isn't Mexicans coming into the USA, it's Mexicans leaving the USA. http://www.pewhispanic.org/2015/11/19/more-mexicans-leaving-than-coming-to-the-u-s/ According to some economists, to achieve a 4% growth rate, the USA will need an immigrant work force! In my opinion, the problem isn't a physical wall intended to keep people out of the USA , it's the perpetuation of mental walls keeping fear and ignorance thriving in the USA. Wait till Mexico starts charging fees for Alaskans going to visit Baja.

Personally I feel sad that Lutherans and Anglicans/Episcopalians are excluded from our communion table because their Eucharistic theology is not as elaborate as ours. Even the Wesleyan (Methodist) tradition affirms the reality of Christ's presence in the elements of bread and wine, although it doesn’t claim to be able to explain it fully. The deeper issue, or so it seems to me, is that even if Lutherans were welcomed to our tables, Catholics would still be forbidden by the bishops to receive communion at their services due to the Church’s rejection of the validity of their ordinations. Of course, there’s more that divides us. . . but not enough room to expound.

We're getting more used to not watching football anymore, but I still check on the Internet to see if this sad fiasco is coming to an end or not. So far, this whole mess is heading nowhere and for us the season is over. How is it even possible that some players would even follow the hateful and yes, racist garbage spouted by Kaeppernick? Is it really coming down to the NFL being crippled or destroyed by these "oppressed" millionaires? Can't they find a better way to help those they feel are being discriminated against than ticking off whole stadiums full of fans? Ratings are way down and advertisers pulling their commercials. Eventually the owners will have to make the choice to either fire those agitators or cut their paychecks way down.

I'm liking Brown and think he is very electable. He is a fiscal Conservative and proving himself to be in the middle of the road on social values. This is what we used to call a small "c" Conservative. They have been missing from Ontario Provincial politics and Federal politics for 15 years or longer. I'll be happy to vote for a politician who wants to balance the budget and does not have any investment in pushing the values agenda of social conservatives. To be clear, if social Conservatives hijack the Ontario PC party then Brown will not get my vote.

Left some things out. You said, " 'Normal' people don't spit their beverage on other people." Actually, if they have a mouthful of beverage when someone calls their sister-in-law a c-word, I can see that they might. I might, in those circumstances, and not intentionally. "Discerning teenage girls with wisdom and commonsense don't approach 51-year-old men on a street corner and initiate conversations that culminate in physical assault." Blaming the victim, eh? If Naval didn't want to talk about his sign, why was he standing on a street corner with it? In this town, on a weekday morning in the middle of downtown, it is not normally an invitation to assault to ask someone what their sign means. If indeed it is suicidal stupidity to ask a question of a stranger on the main drag in Houston, that's one more reason to thank God I've never been there.

Οι έλεγχοι που ξεκίνησαν από νωρίς το πρωί επικεντρώθηκαν στα τμήματα του digital banking και στις διευθύνσεις λιανικής τραπεζικής. Έλεγχος έγινε επίσης και στα γραφεία εταιρείας που παρέχει τερματικά POS σε τράπεζες μετά από καταγγελία για αυξημένες χρεώσεις μέσω POS. Στη διάρκεια των ελέγχων, σύμφωνα με πληροφορίες, έγινε αντιγραφή δεδομένων από σκληρούς δίσκους, ενώ ζητήθηκαν έγγραφα και ηλεκτρονική αλληλογραφία. Σημειώνεται ότι οι ελεγκτές της Επιτροπής Ανταγωνισμού, αφού αξιολογήσουν τα στοιχεία της έρευνας, είτε θα παραπέμψουν τον φάκελο στη Γενική Διεύθυνση της Επιτροπής Ανταγωνισμού αν στοιχειοθετείται παράβαση του νόμου, είτε θα βάλουν τη υπόθεση στο αρχείο αν δεν βρεθούν ενοχοποιητικά στοιχεία. Στη πρώτη περίπτωση η Γενική Διεύθυνση της Επιτροπής θα εξετάσει το θέμα και θα υποβάλει την εισήγηση της στην Ολομέλεια της Επιτροπής, η οποία και θα κληθεί στη συνέχεια να λάβει τις οριστικές αποφάσεις σχετικά με την επιβολή προστίμων. Πηγές του υπουργείου Ανάπτυξης τονίζουν ότι η επιχείρηση από την πλευρά της Επιτροπής Ανταγωνισμού, η οποία είναι Ανεξάρτητη Αρχή, κινήθηκε αυτεπαγγέλτως και χωρίς να έχει αποσταλεί κανένα σχετικό αίτημα από τον υπουργό Ανάπτυξης και Επενδύσεων Άδωνι Γεωργιάδη. Σε σχέση με τον αιφνιδιαστικό της χαρακτήρα, οι ίδιοι κύκλοι αναφέρουν πως αποτελεί πάγια τακτική της Επιτροπής. «Πάντα έτσι συμβαίνει σε όλες τις υποθέσεις που διερευνούμε. Έτσι έγινε στο παρελθόν σε όλες τις μεγάλες έρευνες για καρτέλ, όπως στα σουπερμάρκετ, στον κατασκευαστικό κλάδο, σε επιχειρήσεις ζυθοποιίας και σε γαλακτοβιομηχανίες. Οι έλεγχοι δεν προαναγγέλλονται» σημειώνουν χαρακτηριστικά. Σημειώνεται πάντως πως προς ημερών ο Γεωργιάδης από το βήμα της Βουλής είχε αναφερθεί στο θέμα, με αφορμή επερώτηση από το ΚΙΝΑΛ. Όπως είχε πει, «εξετάζουμε πάρα πολύ προσεκτικά τυχόν εναρμονισμένες πρακτικές. Γιατί, όπως ξέρετε πολύ καλά, εάν αποδειχθεί ότι υπάρχουν και οι τέσσερις τράπεζες από κοινού αποφασίζουν παρόμοιες χρεώσεις, η Επιτροπή Ανταγωνισμού είναι εδώ και είμαι έτοιμος να στείλω προσωπικά καταγγελία για κάτι τέτοιο. Το θεσμικό πλαίσιο είναι εκεί και τα πρόστιμα πάρα πολύ μεγάλα. Άρα, εναρμονισμένες πρακτικές δεν θα επιτρέψουμε». Για το θέμα εξέδωσε ανακοίνωση σήμερα η Επιτροπή Ανταγωνισμού, όπου αναφέρει τα εξής: «Στις 7 και 8 Νοεμβρίου του 2019 στελέχη της Επιτροπής Ανταγωνισμού διενήργησαν προσχεδιασμένους, εδώ και πολλές εβδομάδες, διαδοχικούς αιφνιδιαστικούς ελέγχους, στο πλαίσιο αυτεπάγγελτης έρευνας καθώς και σε συνέχεια σχετικών καταγγελιών, στις εγκαταστάσεις επιχειρήσεων και ενώσεων επιχειρήσεων που δραστηριοποιούνται στον τραπεζικό κλάδο. Οι έλεγχοι αφορούσαν ανησυχίες της Επιτροπής Ανταγωνισμού ότι οι ερευνώμενες επιχειρήσεις μπορεί να έχουν εμπλακεί σε αντί-ανταγωνιστικές πρακτικές οριζόντιας σύμπραξης ή πρακτικές αποκλεισμού στην παροχή τραπεζικών υπηρεσιών και υπηρεσιών πληρωμών κατά παράβαση των διατάξεων του Ν. 3959/2011 για την προστασία του ελεύθερου ανταγωνισμού, καθώς και των άρθρων 101 και 102 της Συνθήκης για τη Λειτουργία της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης (ΣΛΕΕ). Οι αιφνιδιαστικοί έλεγχοι είναι ένα προκαταρκτικό βήμα σε περίπτωση που υπάρχουν ενδείξεις αντί-ανταγωνιστικών πρακτικών. Η διεξαγωγή τέτοιων ελέγχων δεν προδικάζει ότι οι επιχειρήσεις έχουν εμπλακεί σε αντί-ανταγωνιστική συμπεριφορά ούτε προδικάζει το αποτέλεσμα της έρευνας. Η Επιτροπή Ανταγωνισμού σέβεται πλήρως τα δικαιώματα άμυνας, ιδίως το δικαίωμα ακρόασης των ελεγχόμενων επιχειρήσεων».

Well, no issue, arm yourself to the hilt if you like. Buy American! Canada's bigger issue will be the rise of terrorism, and their own policies of who can come in and who can't. And, they still have that "thing" with regard to being British and French, which isn't a "Merkel" at all. Why Canada would side with Germans is interesting, but then this is just grandstanding by Freeland anyway. One fun thought for them to consider, since the earth is getting warmer their northern territories will increasingly come into play as something that may need to be defended. Russia can just send a ship now as it is, but there are still too many mosquitos to contend with. And they can't complain about our CO2 because their economy is so dependent on sale of their CO2 generating resources, oil and coal to anybody and everybody at a price, eh? They'll have a lot of farmland within a century, and, at their own hand! Best get ready, if the Pacific Islanders can't sue us, they'll go to the next stinkpot.

You have to remember that for Trid, the definition of "being Catholic" is "he or she agrees with ME". Trid has said (1) that his opinions are congruent with the magisterium and (2) anyone who disagrees with the magisterium in any way whatsoever is not a true Catholic. He also says that the magisterium has never, ever changed a teaching, which simply demonstrates his willingness to lie about Church history.

The Fool article really only has suggestion for small private investors. Corporate real-estate investments have a department of tax experts and tax lawyers so that they can make 'smart' decisions. I'd agree with the Presidents statements that the tax code is overly complicated. The tax brackets aren't complex at all. It's the exceptions to paying the tax's of your bracket that adds to the complexity. Every interest group in the country has what they feel are good reasons why they should be the exception. Those with the best lawyers get the best advice and/or connection to powerful political allies. It's not a guess, it's just a function of how much discretionary money you have to spend. There's people corrupted by money in almost any large group. Take the blinders off.

Memoirs of a Butch Lesbian Tag Archives: Teena Brandon Let’s talk about public bathrooms. And airport security. And dressing rooms. And all of the other places that lesbians who don’t conform to the patriarchy’s ideal of what a woman should look like go where we are incorrectly identified as not being women. Places where we are accosted, detained, assaulted, barred from entering, humiliated, mocked, abused, beaten, and even raped; all because we dare to thumb our noses at the binary and proudly remain the women that we are, the women we choose to be, regardless of what the patriarchy demands. You can even include all of those places where we go for doctor’s appointments, job interviews, etc. Places where our name is called and when we respond, the person calling our name is confused and unable to reconcile the woman’s name on their form with the person in front of them because of how the patriarchy conditions all of us to view women. A lot of lesbians, dykes, and especially butches don’t fit that perception. We never have. We have always done woman in our own way without a care in the world about how society sees us, while refusing to change who we are when society tries to change us through shame and violence. We all have the stories, you know the ones. I am walking towards the woman’s bathroom when an older woman walks out the door and then stands there, trying to keep me from entering while telling me this is the ladies restroom, as if I cannot read or see the small female figure in a skirt on the door. Or the times, so many times, I lost count of when I am finishing up in the woman’s restroom, washing my hands when a woman opens the door, looks at me, pauses, looks at the sign on the door, looks at me again, and then just stands there frozen. Or even those times when they don’t stand frozen, but feign confusion asking if this is the ladies room. We butches, as well as non-conforming dykes and lesbians, we all have stories like these, with varying degrees of danger and humiliation. I have butch friends who flat out refuse to use the woman’s restroom unless a femme friend or lover accompanies them to keep the stares, and the violence, to a minimum. Other butch friends won’t go to the woman’s restroom, no matter what, because they have dealt with such humiliation and violence before that to even consider using a woman’s public bathroom gives them an anxiety attack. There are other stories, of course: being denied entry into the woman’s dressing room at a clothing store, the stares and murmurs, and even some women moving to another area, while we are changing in a woman’s dressing room at the YMCA, having to go through airport security more than once or, worse, being detained because the people at security look at us and see: men. These stories go on and on and on for all of us, so it really wasn’t a shock to see news reports online of a woman, Susan Ho, who was using the woman’s restroom at a casino where she was entered in a bowling tournament, only to be unlawfully detained and assaulted when she tried to exit the bathroom and was accused of being a man in the woman’s restroom. At one point, the people detaining her even went so far as to discuss the possibility of removing Susan’s shirt to see if she was actually a woman, as she said. Read the full article here: http://www.courthousenews.com/2013/10/08/61853.htm I say I am not shocked when I see this sort of thing in the news, but it doesn’t make reading about it any less disheartening. As I said before, some lesbians and dykes and especially we butches don’t fit the patriarchal view of what women “should” look like. When people see me in my jeans, t-shirt, and hat, they make a snap judgment and see what their conditioning tells them to see: a man. See, we are the real gender non-conformists. I know that transgenders and their apologists and allies love to make the false claim that trans men and trans woman are gender non-conformists, but that is all smoke and mirrors to hide what is actually happening. Trans people are the very opposite of gender non-conformists. They do everything they possibly can to completely and utterly conform to the binary. Look at trans men. When on T, what is the first thing trans men do? Go out of their way to grow facial hair because, to them, facial hair is one of the biggest defining factors of maleness, of being men. Forget the fact that there are women out there who have no choice but to shave their faces because for one medical reason or another (this differs woman to woman), they have facial hair. Then look at trans women. They are one hundred percent about presentation; and that presentation is driven by male desire, by the patriarchy, by what they, as men, find attractive in women. They must dress and act in extremes with the long hair, tons of make up, and dresses all the time because when men think about women, this is how they see women in their minds’ eyes: as a completely vamped up, stylized version of woman. Both trans men and trans women go out of their way to be as “manly” or as “womanly” (respectively) as they can be because that is what the patriarchy, what the binary demands. Pick one or the other, the patriarchy says. If you wear men’s clothing, you must be a man; and if you wear women’s clothing, you must be a woman. If you are going to be a man or a woman, make sure to be the most über man or woman you can be so that we are positive that that is what you are. It is this same line of thinking that has parents turning tomboys into little trans men and feminine boys into little trans women. In the parents’ eyes, they are doing their child a favor but what they are really doing is forcing their child into the binary box. Butches, as well as non-conforming lesbians and dykes on the other hand, are who they are while still being women, the patriarchy be damned. Instead of conforming, we, literally, stand out and are the most visible women in the lesbian community. We take a lot of heat for that, yes, but we love our bodies, we love being women, and we are not going to “transition” into some variation of men simply to please the patriarchal binary system. Transgenderism is, at its very core, conformity. That is the number one goal of transgenderism: conforming to the binary. Butches and non-conforming dykes and lesbians want the very opposite. Transgenders try to co-opt our words by claiming to be women and even lesbians. They try to co-opt our spaces by forcing their way into women’s restrooms, dressing rooms, and other woman-only spaces. They try to control our bodies by shaming us into having sex with them or else be labeled bigots and transphobes. They even try to steal our histories by turning women like Teena Brandon into a trans man, by claiming the butch and drag queen who started the Stonewall riots were actually a trans man and trans woman, etc. They do all of this under the guise that they are gender non-conformists, when the truth of the matter is simply this: if trans people were truly non-conformists, there would be no transgenderism. Women would be women and men would be men, regardless of how they dressed or acted; and there would be no back lash, no mocking or shaming, no violence toward them, towards all of us, for being who we are. No, the true non-conformists are butches, lesbians, and dykes. A professor once told me in college, “You are a genderfuck.” He was right; and I am damn proud of it. It’s a question I see all the time on-line these days. This is the age of queer and gender theory, when being a masculine woman simply isn’t good enough any longer and one must transition in order to be seen and heard. So tons of butches and young teenage lesbians transition into men, thinking the hate they have for their bodies, the invisibility they feel, and the anger they have towards a society that mocks them daily will disappear. So, where have we gone? Most of us are kept silent, forced into the closet we already clawed our way out of because we are not allowed to talk about our lives. We are not allowed to openly discuss our love of our female bodies mixed with our masculine traits. We are not allowed to mention our mourning the loss of our butch sisters as they escape into the patriarchy we have spent our lives fighting against as it drags us, kicking and screaming into its binary system of thinking and being. To do so means we are traitors to our own community, a community we helped to build and in 1969, a community for which we put ourselves out there and helped to start the Stonewall Riots. That’s another thing we are not allowed to talk about, by the way: Stonewall. The trans community has rewritten history so many times by taking away butches and replacing them with transmen that it is a wonder we even exist anymore. The Stonewall riots were started by a butch and a drag queen, not a transman and a transwoman. Teena Brandon was a butch, not a transman. These are things we are not allowed to talk about without being called transphobes, without being threatened, without being bullied into silence by men (and the apologists who defend them) who cannot stand outspoken women. It is not transphobic to celebrate the woman I am. It is not transphobic to not transition into a man in order to appease the patriarchy who demands that women are feminine and men are masculine. it is not transphobic to keep history true instead of allowing it to be changed by those who wish to use it to further their own agendas. It is not transphobic to speak my truths. So instead of continuing to stay silent, I decided to create my own space where I can speak my truths and talk about my life as a butch woman, as a lesbian. I do not lead a glamorous life, I just lead my life and I wish to remain visible in this world of increasing butch invisibility so that other young women who are perhaps butch don’t get trapped in the false belief that if they are masculine, then they MUST be a man.

Wow. You have no idea what you are talking about. There is no investigation about Russian bribery of government officials but rather Russian bribery as a routine business practice. If you got outside of your own damn backyard, you'd know that business bribery is common throughout the world and the US is one of the few countries that prohibits it -- or did, before Tiller's oil company persuaded the current "swamp" Congress from removing those restrictions. THERE IS NO NATIONAL SECURITY REASON to deny a Russian company from buying a mining company in the US -- FULL STOP.

Okay, but sooner or later we've got to quit rehashing the 2016 election. Clinton lost. She's yesterday's news. Whether or not he should have, Trump won. That makes his conduct more pertinent and more newsworthy. The problem with the "Clinton did it too" argument is that it deflects scrutiny from Trump. It makes it sound as if you're arguing that Trump should get a pass because he's not the only one who's (allegedly) guilty. There's a hierarchy of urgency here. Clinton may or may not be guilty, but Trump is the president and that makes him the subject of greater concern.

I don't remember 5 guys in a clown car. I remember a racist driving his Dodge Challenger into a crowd of people and killing Heather Heyer. I remember when a Trump supporter conspired to and shot a peaceful protester at a Milo event at the University of WA. I remember when Adam Purinton shot 2 Indian men in a bar after telling them to "get out of my country." I remember mosques and synagogues set on fire and/or vandalized. I remember James Jackson traveled to NYC and used a sword to kill the first black man he saw. I remember 2 white men attacking a group of Muslims, and kidnapping and killing one. I remember vandals spraying hate graffiti on a black family's house and then attempting to burn them alive inside. I remember Steve Urbanski stabbing Richard Collins III to death. I remember 3 men being stabbed on a MAX train trying to defend 2 Muslim women from a racist, 2 of them died. I remember a lot that happened this year, and these examples only represent a small fraction of the hate.

thoughts worth considering: Trump's family is moving in on this office. Ivanka and the boys attended all interviews for potential candidates to serve T's office. She and her husband are now asking for choice positions in the cabinet. They will work in the west wing to avoid the law prohibiting this. Draining the swamp looks like it got lost somewhere: The people sitting in ready to take their positions are 14 billionaires. They surely have a sound grip on what the people need/want. If the Russians truly hacked the DNC/HRC/Podesta........then why haven't the CIA showed that? They did in another case a couple of years ago. Assange has stated over and over that it was a whistleblower who was fed up w/the corruption of HRC (me too!) What amazes me today the most is how I keep hearing how T is violating this and that and NO ONE DOES ANYTHING. The repuglicans are worse than the slugs democraps and all of us? why like idiots we fight among ourselves arguing on who's stupider

Viable pregnancies can occur after 24-hour incubation of ejaculated sperm before intracytoplasmic sperm injection. This is the first report of viable pregnancies established with ICSI after 24-hour incubation of washed ejaculated sperm from men with poor sperm parameters. Because both pregnancy rates and viable pregnancy rates were significantly increased compared with 2- to 4-hour-incubated historical controls, 24-hour incubation before ICSI may be beneficial in selecting the most favorable ejaculated sperm.

I have a story about Nick Golodoff (Attu Boy) and the war that I need to write down some day. It occurred one sunny day in Atka, we were waiting alone together at the airstrip, waiting for Mark Air to arrive.

Is the site making up stuff, or it factually accurate? This site foments anti-trad animus, according to many trads anyway. But I don't call NCR a "hate site." This is what I mean about polemics. What if the essay had been written by a Trad, about abortion being against American and Christian values? Wouldn't you at least agree there is room for argument on both sides of that issue? I would, even though I largely fit into the pro choice category, I understand there is a valid argument from other other side. I wouldn't label those who disagree with me as Un christian, or un American. The author of this essay was so bold as to do just that on the imm. issue, which is why I say the essay is a polemic. I think the author went too far. It's not a big deal.
