i know our tax code for income taxes has 6 brackets ranging from 10% - 35%, but how much of our total govt budget comes from income taxes on the middle class, vs. lower class, vs those making over $250,000 per year which seems to be the magic cut off point that obama keeps talking about? is it the 80-20 rule where the top richest 20% of the population pay 80% of the taxes? can't seem to find these statistics anywhere.

1. ryan grant @ dal on THU

2. kolby smith vs sd on SUN

3. willis mcgahee vs NE on mnf

4. earnest graham @ NO on sun

5. mo morris @ PHI on sun

6. kenny watson @ PIT on sun.

rt now i think morris is bench bc of injury and SA coming back. same story with watson, rudi has been back.

graham was my starter bc he has been solid but then i read that luke mcclown is starting in place of an injured garcia and gradkowski. and last week against WAS, once garcia left the game, graham got stuffed in the 2nd half.

i like mcgahee playing at home on mnf but it's NE and i think they will get blown out making the run irrelevant

that leaves smith and grant as starters. very nervous. i hate starting two guys just bc they had a one good performance the week before. i did that once with grant after he blew up agains minny then he turned around and was horrible against CAR. (stats are misleading, he ran 1 big run in garbage time to double his running yards in the 4th qtr against CAR)

who should i drop from my team to pick him up?

warrick dunn? DeAngelo Williams or Deuce McAllister? or nobody?

every individual has various preferences for how private they are about their lives.

the question is, does that preference have any correlation to and individual's past actions and how they perceive those actions? i.e. is one who is embarrassed or troubled about his past more likely to be a staunch advocate of privacy than one who is not? and for that matter, can one generalize and assume if someone is extremely private, then the reason for that privacy is to hide details about his life that he is not proud of.

while that is seemingly a controversial question. how about if it is asked in a different way. are people who are very loose about their privacy that way because they have lived their lives in a manner that they are proud of and can honestly say that they have nothing to hide? if this correlation exists, does it prove that the converse is true? that those who are private are so because they do have something to hide?

i was optimistic and drafted d. branch, but his future is not looking bright. i need all roster spots on my team to be productive. so far, i only have pitt defense, but i also have culpepper as my starting qb. since they are playing against each other on thursday, i don't like playing defenses against QB because any sacks or picks just negate each other.

should i drop branch and which defense should i pick up? in my opinion of the remaining defenses that are available in my league. both miami and seattle are viable, bc they both have easy schedules. which would you pick up and why?

I'm looking to buy a digital camera. It has to be ultra small, 3-inch LCD, picture stabilization feature, good battery life, and very quick response. My old camera sometimes takes forever to actually snap the picture after pushing the button.
