it was basically spinning on it's nose all over the tank almost in a spiral motion and it was thrashing about and then it would just chill out and act normal though it still seemed to be pointing with it's nose towards the bottom of the tank. I also noticed that it was breathing heavy...and ideas?

I know that there is plenty of organizations willing to send me a bible for free. Does anyone know of any?

I can't seem to find a web site that has a world map with all the longitude and latitude lines on it.

LOOSE means having extra room or not tight, example:

Be sure to thighten up that screw it it is loose it could cause the whole thing to come apart.

majority control over 6 of our biggest ports? Sorry, i'm just very concerned about this and i think that it's something EVERY American should know. So i'm wondering why nobody cares, this is the 3rd time i've asked this question and i got 2 responses before, and worse off the media isn't mentioning it at all. So for all of you who think Bush is so big on homeland security.The Bush administration has reached a new low in outsourcing

WASHINGTON Feb 11, 2006 (AP)— A company in the United Arab Emirates is poised to take over significant operations at six American ports as part of a corporate sale, leaving a country with ties to the Sept. 11 hijackers with influence over a maritime industry considered vulnerable to terrorism.

When there is no doubt that they are guilty, i.e. confession or DNA evidence.

I'm disgusted by people who claim that a woman who kills her children shoud have her life spared because she was obviously mentally distressed.

how evil it is, yet many of the same people think it's ok to kill tens of thousands of people over oil?

when they have in fact been in control of the country for the last 6 years, it is their economic policy that is building up a record debt, it is their war that is costng us billions of dollars a month and killing thousands of innocent people,and it is their president that currently has no less than 3 investigations by either the senate or congress ongoing? Why don't they realize that perhaps the problem isn't coming from the other side of the isle but is in fact coming from their own?

malfunction ($550,000 i beleive), then The government fined the Alabama mining company whose collapse in 2001 cost 13 people their lives. ($350,000 i think)?

Political scientist Dr. Lawrence Britt recently wrote an article about fascism ("Fascism Anyone?," Free Inquiry, Spring 2003, page 20). Studying the fascist regimes of Hitler (Germany), Mussolini (Italy), Franco (Spain), Suharto (Indonesia), and Pinochet (Chile), Dr. Britt found they all had 14 elements in common. He calls these the identifying characteristics of fascism. The excerpt is in accordance with the magazine's policy.

The 14 characteristics are:

Powerful and Continuing Nationalism

Fascist regimes tend to make constant use of patriotic mottos, slogans, symbols, songs, and other paraphernalia. Flags are seen everywhere, as are flag symbols on clothing and in public displays.

Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights

Because of fear of enemies and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases because of "need." The people tend to look the other way or even approve of torture, summary executions, assassinations, long incarcerations of prisoners, etc.

Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause

The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial , ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc.

Supremacy of the Military

Even when there are widespread domestic problems, the military is given a disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized.

Rampant Sexism

The governments of fascist nations tend to be almost exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes, traditional gender roles are made more rigid. Opposition to abortion is high, as is homophobia and anti-gay legislation and national policy.

Controlled Mass Media

Sometimes to media is directly controlled by the government, but in other cases, the media is indirectly controlled by government regulation, or sympathetic media spokespeople and executives. Censorship, especially in war time, is very common.

Obsession with National Security

Fear is used as a motivational tool by the government over the masses.

Religion and Government are Intertwined

Governments in fascist nations tend to use the most common religion in the nation as a tool to manipulate public opinion. Religious rhetoric and terminology is common from government leaders, even when the major tenets of the religion are diametrically opposed to the government's policies or actions.

Corporate Power is Protected

The industrial and business aristocracy of a fascist nation often are the ones who put the government leaders into power, creating a mutually beneficial business/government relationship and power elite.

Labor Power is Suppressed

Because the organizing power of labor is the only real threat to a fascist government, labor unions are either eliminated entirely, or are severely suppressed .

Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts

Fascist nations tend to promote and tolerate open hostility to higher education, and academia. It is not uncommon for professors and other academics to be censored or even arrested. Free expression in the arts is openly attacked, and governments often refuse to fund the arts.

Obsession with Crime and Punishment

Under fascist regimes, the police are given almost limitless power to enforce laws. The people are often willing to overlook police abuses and even forego civil liberties in the name of patriotism. There is often a national police force with virtually unlimited power in fascist nations.

Rampant Cronyism and Corruption

Fascist regimes almost always are governed by groups of friends and associates who appoint each other to government positions and use governmental power and authority to protect their friends from accountability. It is not uncommon in fascist regimes for national resources and even treasures to be appropriated or even outright stolen by government leaders.

Fraudulent Elections

Sometimes elections in fascist nations are a complete sham. Other times elections are manipulated by smear campaigns against or even assassination of opposition candidates, use of legislation to control voting numbers or political district boundaries, and manipulation of the media. Fascist nations also typically use their judiciaries to manipulate or control elections.

It just seems wrong to me that instead of people using thei brain they rather ask someone else for help. Just one of the many reasons why our next generation is gonna be ignorant and unable to fend for themselves.
