Glaice's rants, raves and praises

http://www.nytimes.com/2009/06/29/world/americas/29honduras.html

Soldiers entered the presidential palace in the capital, Tegucigalpa, and disarmed the presidential guard early Sunday, military officials said. Mr. Zelaya’s private secretary, Eduardo Enrique Reina, confirmed the arrest.

Mr. Zelaya flew into exile in Costa Rica, telling a local television station, “They are creating a monster they will not be able to contain.”

Political tensions have increased in recent weeks, as Mr. Zelaya pressed ahead with plans for a nonbinding referendum that opponents said would open the way for him to rewrite the constitution to run for re-election despite a one-term limit.

Last week, the Supreme Court and Congress both declared the referendum unconstitutional. But on Thursday, the president led a group of protesters to an air force installation and seized the ballots, which the prosecutor’s office and the electoral tribunal had ordered confiscated.

After the armed forces commander, Romeo Vazquez, said that the military would not participate in the referendum, Mr. Zelaya fired him. But the Supreme Court declared the firing illegal.

President Obama said Sunday that he was deeply concerned by the reports from Honduras about the detention and expulsion of the president.

“I call on all political and social actors in Honduras to respect democratic norms, the rule of law and the tenets of the Inter-American Democratic charter,” Mr. Obama said in a statement. “Any existing tensions and disputes must be resolved peacefully through dialogue free from any outside interference.”

Note the bolded section....now why would he want to support this wacko who is trying to pull a Chavez? We don't need more people trying to be like Chavez and their president-for-life mentality. You should know better, Barry.. (see Black Panthers intimidating voters in Philly last November)

Communicating with prisoners and resisting the urge to put a bullet in their skull.

I went to Pathmark to buy stuff, costing around $11 than went to McDonalds so I can buy something that mom and co could have later. I paid with a $20 since everything costed $16 BUT I got $14 back! When I saw that $10 in the change the girl gave me, I quietly pocketed it...but that's not it..I purchased 3 McChickens, 3 medium fries, 2 small vanilla shakes and a sweet tea but she gave me THREE vanilla shakes.

A double bonus, albeight being a little immoral and not tell her of the errors *innocent whistle* O:-3 and getting about 90% of the money I spent at Pathmark.

When Pigs Fly: The Death of Oink, the Birth of Dissent, and a Brief History of Record Industry Suicide.

For quite a long time I've been intending to post some sort of commentary on the music industry - piracy, distribution, morality, those types of things. I've thought about it many times, but never gone through with it, because the issue is such a broad, messy one - such a difficult thing to address fairly and compactly. I knew it would result in a rambly, unfocused commentary, and my exact opinion has teetered back and forth quite a bit over the years anyway. But on Monday, when I woke up to the news that Oink, the world famous torrent site and mecca for music-lovers everywhere, had been shut down by international police and various anti-piracy groups, I knew it was finally time to try and organize my thoughts on this huge, sticky, important issue.

Added security for wireless connections after so much time having it open..it all works since it is some phrase that I can easily remember.

Yes, I found my ID and my gym card....they were in the same sweatpants' lower pocket that has velcro strips. I guess I forgot about it and left them in there on Sunday...

This means I don't need to pay $10 for a replacement gym card.

Stability results were moderately high which suggests you are relaxed, calm, secure, and optimistic.

Orderliness results were very high which suggests you are overly organized, reliable, neat, and hard working at the expense too often of flexibility, efficiency, spontaneity, and fun.

Extraversion results were moderately low which suggests you are reclusive, quiet, unassertive, and secretive.

I write this because the house my family is in could be lost in May if things cannot be worked out..so that means I may have extended periods of non-internet usage if that ever happens.

Best case scenario would keeping the house, middle case would be moving in with someone and worst case would be living in an apartment.

Tried again but no go..

Yes, it's basically a lost cause. Starts up normally but once into Windows, not long after all the desktop shows up, it locks up and responds to no keyboard input. I was trying to get an 'alternative' Windows (XP Corp..hahah) to load via bootup but noo...the input acts all fucking weird and with it plugged in and at the "windows has not been shut down" screen prior to loading, hitting the keys just makes the F-lock and Numlock buttons blink simultaneously. I have suspected it could be the aging motherboard (almost 6 years old now) and with the X1600 video problems I've had, it pretty much is worthless now.

There ARE functional (PSU, hard drives, sound card) and semi/quasifunctional parts (RAM, motherboard) that I can can salvage the hard drives for use in the new computer...whenever the fuck my dad's buddy from east NJ will come here since he has possession of this desktop which is intended for a gift for getting my GED now.

I highly doubt Fallout 3 will run at all on it but it might be very sluggish on the laptop I am using now. The investment of the laptop I bought in April 2006 for by h-day was a wise idea after all..

Not surprised one bit.

I don't know where to start, you tell me. I don't want my ears to bleed from the utter garbage they call 'music'.

-Scientology will be banned, dissolved and its cult members 'reeducated'.

-Churches, mosques and other organized places of worship and gathering will have property tax.

-Non-citizens attempting to cross from Mexico into here will be shot on sight and the shooter or shooters will not be prosecuted, no questions asked. Any illegal immigrants will be sent back deep into Mexico..and not just 50 miles into it.

-Most drugs will be legalized (meth being an exception) but with a tax on them the way alcohol and cigarettes are.

-Corporate and special interest group lobbying will be illegal and punishible up to a year in prison and repeat offenders get additional time.

-There will be at least two other major political parties so there isn't this duopoly bullshit between GOP and Dems every election.

-Civil unions and gay marriage will be legal and enforced countrywide.

-Major corruption probe will be done in all levels of government and those with extensive corruption (IE Illinois governer) will be barred from any government level job or major corporation.

-Flat tax of 12.5 to 13%

-Death row inmates that have been conviced with solid evidence against will be put to death immediatly by a single shot to the back of the head.

-Gun laws loosened but will allow people to defend their property with deadly force in the case of home invasion.

-No more favoring the woman over the man in child support cases, both must take parental tests atop other nonsense.

-Less intervention in world affairs, no more will we bother needing so many bases in Europe and Middle East.

-Cut most (75%-80%) aid to Israel and the Middle East. If people want to help, have them pay it out of their own pockets from charity and other orginizations.

-Enforce strict MPG minimum for minivans, trucks and cars. Must be at least 30 MPG highway and city. SUVs and Hummers will cease production immediatly. If the consumer wants one, have them buy that shit from overseas.

-Strict oversight on imports, meaning check everything coming here. Bring overseas factories back into the states so we can become a producing nation again.

-Cease borrowing from China and greatly reduce imports from them, putting a strict product quality standard for the junk we get from them.

-Open further trading with Europe and other parts of Asia.

-Corporations bribing or sending expensive gifts to politicians will not be tolerated and will be punished with a fine double to the amount given or value of the gift.

-Affirmitive Action will be reduced.

-DHS will be dissolved and staff will be transferred to their choice in organization within the government. Information between CIA, NSA, etc must be shared for maximum efficiency.

-Aggressive R&D for alternative sources of fuel, including the decommissioning of some coal/oil power plants and replaced with CANDU nuclear reactors.

-Improve relations with Russia and former Soviet bloc countries.

-Major oil companies will have a stiff 20% tax on them, not including the 12.5% flat tax atop them.

-Frivilous and other bullshit lawsuits will be dismissed off the bat and copyright/IP laws will be revamped extensively to the point they are no longer 70+ years plus author's life and closer to the original copyright length (14 years).

-Murder, treason, selling hostile countries propitary military hardware are punishible by death. Third parties to such crimes will have less severe punishments.

-Calorie loaded soda, 'bad' fast food (IE Mcdonalds, Wendys, etc...this excludes places like Subway), candy and junk food will have an additional tax atop the flat tax, making these products have a 20% tax. If you want to load your body with shitty stuff, be prepared to pay more. Products with asparteme and other similar chemical additives will have a tax on it too, having a total tax of 15% on them.

-Slash spending in ALL areas of government and work on paying off the deficit.

-Cronyism and nepotism will not be tolerated in government unless under very extreme circumstances.

Seriously, just fucking die already. Since you jackoffs who run the site with their ego tripping staff, no wonder the fandom hates you for pushing off all gay furry related art not once but again. I hope your site fades into obscurity the way FAP has.

My personal experience with them:
I used to have a Y!Gallery account before the first round of barring furry art. I mostly posted my commission art and a few photos there. When I got word of this and my commission pics were gone, I uploaded a photo of myself giving the bird to the camera. I got a week or two ban for that, after that I said "fuck it" and left that place forever, leaving my account to rot.

PS to readers: Boycott Y!Gallery and spread the word.
