School district could backpedal on policy

School district could backpedal on policy

SARATOGA SPRINGS — Seventh-grader Adam Marino is getting a firsthand lesson in civil disobedience.

The 12-year-old and his mother, Janette Kaddo Marino, are defying Saratoga Springs school policy by biking to Maple Avenue Middle School on Route 9. The Jackson Street residents pedal more than four miles together each way to the middle school on nice days despite being told not to by school officials and police.

“I guess you can say that we continue to do what we feel is our right,” Kaddo Marino said recently. “We feel strongly we have a right to get to school by a mode of transportation we deem appropriate.”

Their methods may be unconventional, but the Marinos are part of a growing number of Americans challenging the sedentary habits of today’s youths and what they view as overanxious “helicopter” parenting. As fewer children walk and bike to school nationwide, parents have started groups like the “Walking School Bus,” which promotes physical activity and fitness in youth by having them walk to school with adults.

Why ban bike riding and walking to school? With childhood obesity a problem, bike riding and walking is a good thing. No. How about lifting the policy all together. Helicopter parenting has gone WAY TOO FAR these days. Remember Lori Drew?

Hurricane Ike: One Year Later

I cannot believe it. It has been one year to the day that Ike ravaged our area. We were all battering down the hatches and preparing for Ike’s onslaught. The rain and wind came crashing in. It would get worse through the night. The wind lashing violently and creating storm surge that would flatten Bolivar Peninsula. The rain and wind continue into the morning. Power was out for many. Many suffered property damage. To make matters worse, some lost loved ones. Ike would be the most costliest hurricane besides Katrina and Andrew.

September 11, 2001 Look Back

Eight years ago today, the unthinkable happened right in front of our eyes.
A day that felt like yesterday.
Nineteen terrorists from Al-Qaeda were bent on massive destruction and death on America.
Hijacked airplanes crash into the World Trade Center, Pentagon, and a field near Shanksville.
American Airlines Flight 11 crashed into the North Tower.
All cameras were trained to the burning North Tower.
Than suddenly, the South Tower is attacked by United Airlines Flight 175.
It became apparent a terrorist attack happened.
People trapped above the crash zone in the North Tower jumped out of desperation.
To make matters worse, American Airlines Flight 77 was hijacked and crashed into the Pentagon.
As the Pentagon burns, the South Tower crashes to the ground in a massive cloud of toxic dust and smoke.
Meanwhile on United Airlines Flight 93, passengers fight back.
The terrorists fail and crash it near Shanksville.
The North Tower crashes to the ground and all is caught on live camera.
The whole world saw the terrorist attack unfold in front of our own eyes.
Whether we were waking up, going to school, work, or going to sleep.
The whole world was in shock and in a state of mourning.
3,000 people died on this fateful day.
The World Trade Center wiped out into oblivion.
Never forget September 11, 2001, a day that will live in infamy.

The hospital delivered the baby’s body in a temporary coffin to Alvarenga’s home a few hours later.

Accused cyber bully wants Internet back

Accused cyber bully wants Internet back

UPI

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 6 (UPI) — A woman accused of cyber-bullying linked to a teen suicide and banned from the Internet has asked permission to go back online for a new job, legal papers say.

Lori Drew has been barred from the Internet since June 16, 2008, when she pleaded not guilty to a federal conspiracy charge and three counts of illegally accessing a protected computer.

A jury in Los Angeles deadlocked on the conspiracy charge and found Drew guilty of the three misdemeanor charges, The St. Louis Post-Dispatch said.

The most hated woman in the world wants to be back on the Internet. Well, I have news for you, the Internet and the world STILL HATES YOU. I suggest you Google your name up. It is not that hard. There is a lot of vitriol directed AT YOU. I wrote another article linking to another blog by a wonderful gentleman who used computer algorthims and determined that Lori Drew is the world’s worst person, which included Osama bin Laden, Adolf Hitler, and Bernard Madoff, who have committed atrocious acts from killing 3,000 people, exterminating 30 million people, and scamming billions. Lori Drew is about as hated and right up there with the likes of Charles Manson, Fred Phelps, Seung-Hui Cho, and Joseph Stalin. Granted, she did not engage in mass murder or commit genocide, but is worthy of scorn like Gertrude Baniszewski or Leopold and Loeb. I don’t think her time will be long. She will get fired. Who in their right mind would hire her? That’s asking for trouble right there. Unless, she is hired by the Westboro Baptist Church, another abhorrent freaks that they are like she is.

The World’s Worst Person?

Here is a computer algorithm who are the world’s worst people. The four people compared are Adolf Hitler, Osama bin Laden, Bernard Madoff, and Lori Drew. Guess who turned out to be the world’s worst person? It is not a terrorist or mass murderer. It is Lori Drew, who got the lowest score. I have covered Lori Drew extensively and my opinion about her is low as Joseph Stalin, Osama bin Laden, Fred Phelps, and Eric Harris/Dylan Klebold. Osama bin Laden came in at a distant second, than Bernard Madoff, and Adolf Hitler last. Granted, Drew’s action is not comparable to killing 3,000 people on live television or committing genocide. Of course, her action is evil and Machiavellian. She felt what she did was justified, like what Bin Laden and Hitler thought was justified in the form of 9/11 and Holocaust.

Drew caused 13 year old Megan Meier to commit suicide by bullying her with her daughter, Sarah, and a co-worker, Ashley Grills. Most people can relate to her because everyone was bullied at some point and she faced a “Term of Service” charge that was dropped by the judge. Most people despise bullies and Lori Drew was a mother with issues of maturity. The outcome for her was nasty and vitriolic comments hurled at her, mixed with ugly insults and death threats. She was compared with the likes of Hitler, Bin Laden, and Charles Manson. The type of vitriol that has not been seen since right after 9/11 with Bin Laden and anyone who blamed America.

On the other hand, bin Laden’s sorry ass is being pursued by the US Military and the 9/11 hijackers got their asses incinerated. Hitler offed himself because the Allies were going to get his ass in Berlin. Madoff did not target a child and some of his victims may have been involved and even enabled it.

Other people that should be considered are Fred Phelps, Michael Crook, Casey Anthony, and John Walker Lindh. I can imagine they could be hated as much as Lori Drew, especially Fred Phelps and Casey Anthony. One flaw with the study is that Hitler is dead, while Bin Laden, Madoff, and Drew are alive. No one is going to argue that Hitler is hated and for good reasons. I could imagine if this was right after 9/11 attacks, Osama bin Laden would score MUCH lower than Lori Drew.

The Video That Could Kill ObamaCare

Let’s hope it does.

http://patriotroom.com/article/the-video-that-could-kill-obamacare

We don’t what happens in Canada and Great Britain. It will be abyssmal. Instead we should have a system similar to car insurance, which is required to have by law. Funny thing is there is no government car insurance program that I know of. If there is, let me know. The more healthier and responsible you are, the less you should pay.

Most Hated People For 2009

We are at the halfway mark for 2009. After a tough decision on determining who are currently the most hated people. There is always a need for public enemies and someone to hate. These 20 loathesome are hated for a good reason and rightfully deserve it. I came to the conclusion of the 20 most hated people. We will started with the twentieth and descend to number one.

20 Most Hated People

20.) Kim Kardashian
A Paris Hilton wanna-be socialite. Thankfully, she is not as well known.

19.) Lindsey Lohan
Another no talent actress who has not done anything in years. Only thing she is famous for is being famous and getting into trouble. Even Brittany Spears cleaned up her act and she did have a real problem, unlike Lohan, who is washed up.

18.) Paris Hilton
A skanky no talent attention whore. She tries to be an actress and singer and fails at that. There are many aspiring singers, actors, and directors who are a lot better. Oh, she is a trust fund kid.

17.) Alex Jones
A 9/11 Truther and whacked out conspiracy theorists. Still in denial, huh? Lay off the tinfoil will ya!

16.) Steven Fowler
Elitist and pompous British ex-pat father in San Fransicko. He thinks soldiers are idiots with no education. He is no better than fellow scumbags, Fred Phelps and Michael Crook.

15.) Suzanne Lukas
Standish, Maine superintendent who did not give Justin Denney his diploma when he graduated after he bowed down and blew some kisses at his parents. This is showing respect at its best. Lukas needs to get a life! What a moron!

14.) Nadya Suleman
The Octo-Mom. I mean c’mon, she has six children and that is a lot for anyone. Her excuse is that she was the only child. I have had friends who were the only child and they were happy. If she was adopting fourteen children, people would be singing a different tune to her.

13.) Rod Blagojevich
Disgraced Illinois governor. He acts like if nothing is happening, which only puts him on thin ice. I suggest you keep your mouth shut. Hey Blaggo, how is life being a reality TV star? Oh, he is to go to trial in June of 2010. Let see you weasel that out.

12.) David Letterman
Pervert and unfunny meth head loser. Whether you love or hate Sarah Palin, attacking her children was wrong and uncalled for. He is MUCH worse than Conan O’Brian and I don’t like him that much.

11.) Keith Olbermann
If there is a world’s worst person, than Keith Olbermann is the one. Okay, save a terrorist or dictator. He hosts his pompous show, Countdown with Keith Olbermann. More like “I Am A Dumb Moron With A Show On PMSNBC”.

10.) Perez Hilton
If there is repressed homosexuality in Fred Phelps, than there must be repressed heterosexuality and it comes in the form of Perez Hilton. Well, he is gay and hates himself. Loves to gossip and ruin people’s lives and attacked Carrie Prejean. A failed actor who goes by the name because he is obsessed with Paris Hilton, another vapid and skanky whore, like he is. Karma struck when he called will.I.am, a “faggot” and got punched. Also, he attacked Michael Jackson when he died. I wonder why he does not talk about Fred Phelps? Oh, that is because he is his secret gay lover.

9.) Michael Crook
Proof why inbreeding is dangerous and cultures condemn it. He is infamous for his defunct anti-soldier site, Craig’s List baiting, sending fake DMCA letters, and attacking people who die in tragic circumstances. EFF sued his sorry ass for sending fake DMCA letters. How dumb is that? He tried looking for relationship on a Neo-Nazis forum called Storm Front and was kicked out for that.

8.) Bernard Madoff
Big time con artist of the lowest denominator. How does one maintain a Ponzi scheme for nearly 20 years is beyond me. You make Robert Stanford look like an amateur. You and Stanford deserve each other in a prison cell. Talk about Machiavellian right there! Oh, he got thrown into the slammer for 150 years!

7.) Casey Anthony
Another sorry ass mother who killed her own daughter, Caylee and did not report her missing for a month. Also, why did her parents did not notice Caylee was missing. Something is seriously wrong with the Anthony family. What a self-centered and self-absorbed scumbag she is.

6.) Fred Phelps
Deranged self-hater and sexually repressed psychopath. He pickets funerals of dead soldiers and people who die in tragic circumstances. He also accused Mr. Rogers and Farrah Fawcett of promoting homosexuality. He is proof why eugenics is a good thing for humanity. Phelps needs to come out of the closet and admit he is gay and should find his illegitimate children, which he has in all probabilities.

5.) Lori Drew
Pathetic sorry ass mother from Missouri. She used MySpace with her daughter Sarah and employee Ashley Grills to harass Megan Meier to suicide. The reason, it was over that Megan called her Sarah a “Lesbian”. Really pathetic if you ask me and I think it has to do with her being a latent homosexual. The skank is too stupid to realize how infamous she is, besides Jim Jones and Adolf Hitler. Is your biological father Fred Phelps? You seem to remind me of him in appearance and behavior. She is acquitted, but she is still one of the most hated person and is the lowest ranked women.

4.) Hugo Chavez
A filthy commie that is ruling Venezuela. Venezuela has a long and rich history and sadly it is being ran into the ground by him. Looks like he is forming the Unholy Trinity with Raul Castro, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, and Kim Jong-Il.

3.) Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
This used car salesman that rules Iran. Actually, he is a puppet of the Mullahs and they seem to be irritated by him too. He was involved in the 1979 Iranian Hostage Crisis. He could be overthrown soon among with the Mullahs. The Iranian election has caused turmoil and hopefully the Mullahs will be ousted in the process along with him.

2.) Kim Jong-Il
Leader of Gulag State of North Korea. This guy has nukes to launch and is stirring up trouble. He lives like a king, while the people starve to look for any food. This guy is a caricature of a whacked out lunatic. He is a lunatic.

1.) Osama bin Laden
Need I say more? He attacked the World Trade Center, Pentagon, and failed attack near Shanksville on September 11, 2001. A day no one will forget. He is also behind terrorism in Afghanistan and Iraq and killing our soldiers there. Bin Laden is evil personified and is the worst person right there! Worst person ever. Okay, save Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Pol Pot, and Mao Zedong.
