  1. Try typing in the story on google you will find about twenty sources for the story. If you don't trust ABC, CNN or the Associated Press, who do you trust Fox News and the New York Post. What do you mean "weres the rest of the story" she earned her degree the day before her graduation she was told she could not get her degree because of a photo of her drinking from a mr.goodbar cup wearing a pirate hat, colleges and university's are not the moral police and they are not your mother, you don't need to be lectured by them or have a degree you earned taken away because someone in the administration has too much time and feels that they should impose thier views of right and wong onto everyone else. She wasn't a teacher she was a student, plus the university has no business telling her what she can do on her own time. If a school were she was trying to get hired to be a teacher had a problem thats one thing but the university that she attended has no right to control what you do on your own time and what you post, especially if it is someon over 21 and drinking from a mr. goodbar cup, i hope someone does an investigation of the administrators who made this decision, lets see how moral the moral police are. The relevance is republicans at a supposedly equal and nuetral university imposing their views on to everyone else. Especially in the case were the university refuses to put sexual discrimination in its discrimination policy, can you explain why they would do that unless they did that for their own personally views and not the good of the university. That seems to be a symptom of being part of the far right, imposing you views on everyone else no matter what the damage is and who it affects. The ironic thing is that most of the time they are hypocrites like Rush Limbaugh who said never trust a draft dodger and railing against drug addicts, despite him being a draft dodger and a pill junkie, Newt Gingrich who admitted having a affair during Bill Clinton's impeachment, and Ted Haggard the anti-gay evangelical preacher who had sex with a male prostitute for three years and was buying meth.
  2. I personally would like to see a Roman themed metal concert. Unforunately alot of metal bands see themselves as the new german barbarians or the new Viking raiders.
  3. MILLERSVILLE, Pa. - A woman denied a teaching degree on the eve of graduation because of a MySpace photo has sued the university. Millersville University instead granted Stacy Snyder a degree in English last year after learning of her Web-published picture, which bore the caption "Drunken Pirate." "I dreamed about being a teacher for a long time," said Snyder, 27, who now works as a nanny. The photo, taken at a 2005 Halloween party, shows Snyder wearing a pirate hat while drinking from a plastic "Mr. Goodbar" cup. It was posted on her own MySpace site. Although Snyder apologized, she learned the day before graduation that she would not be awarded an education degree or teaching certificate. Jane S. Bray, dean of the School of Education, accused Snyder of promoting underage drinking, the suit states. The federal lawsuit seeks at least $75,000 in damages. Millersville spokeswoman Janet Kacskos referred questions to a state System of Higher Education spokesman, who declined comment. (YAHOO NEWS) Apparently being over 21 and drinking from a mr.goodbar cup on myspace is room for a university to deny you a degree you earned, despite having excellent grades!!! By the way Millersville University is the same university that its own students protested because it refuses to put sexual orientation discrimination in its discrimination policy.
  4. Its going to be a tough year for you New York City fans. First the Sabres eliminate the Islanders next we will eliminate the Rangers. GO BUFFALO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  5. Personally i worship The Flying Spaghetti Monster and the Invisible Pink Unicorn.
  6. What is it with all the Buffalo bashing here. As far as you canadian fans are concerned no canadian team has won the stanley cup since '93 and the last time the Leafs were in the eastern conference finals they were routed by Buffalo in 5 games, and does anyone remeber last years playoffs when ottawa was also beaten in 5 games by Buffalo. As far as the San Jose Sharks are concerned even if they somehow get past Nashville they WILL NOT get past the second round no matter who they face. As for the Penquins well they didn't look too great against ottawa in game one so unless they get their act together i'm not to worried about them either.
  7. Why would the Sabres winning it all be a laugh, their the best team in the league. If any team deserves to win it all its the Sabres, and they are long over due at that. Its finally Buffalo's year, and those of us that live in Buffalo can't wait to celebrate.
  8. Napoleon's greatest flaws were his arrogance and his disconnect from those around him unless he himself would be directly affected. After the disaster in Russia he would hold eleborate balls, one quote from a French colonel,"People were shocked to see the Emperor enteraining at Tuileries. It was an insult to public grief and revealed cruel sensitivity to the victims." Napolean was also know to abandon his army in the field, as he did in Russia during the French retreat. You cannot be a good leader by repeatedly glossing or ignoring your mistakes and not expressing at least a small amount of understanding of the misery of the people you lead in which your decisions have caused. As great of a general as Napoleon was, he was a failure as a diplomat and did not rule the lands he conquered wisely, as in the repeated uprisings of the Prussians and Austrians against Napolean despite being beaten badly by him numerous times. He simply believed that if he defeated an enemy army than that nation would just lay down to him and that they would have to accept whatever he wanted. He really didn't even try to pass himself off as a benevolent ruler. Scipio Africanus after defeating Hannibal at Zama did not raze carthage, as was expected of him, and was generaly moderate to the defeated Carthagians. Scipio refused to made Dictator for life, he didn't hunger for power like Napolean and fought more for the protection of Rome against her enemies, and not their annihilation, which was what Napolean wanted for his enemies but never got. I think history looks more favorable on the humble and generous Scipio, than the arrogant and power hungry Napolean.
  9. Here is a article on the subject. http://ancienthistory.suite101.com/article...antis_and_thera
  10. Well the thing is Pullo went from the everyday underdog you could cheer for in the first season to a almost complete sociopath in the second season. The fact is he didn't just lie to Octavian he murdered his fellow Roman soldiers while protecting a enemy of Rome, and this is from the same guy who is always yelling "13th", now if that is not treason i don't know what is. As for a third season they did leave the door open for it, but i doubt it will ever come unless there is a huge fan push for it.
  11. Wasn't the mythology of jesus based partly on the mythology of Bacchus?
  12. Atlantis may actually be based on the Minoan civilization.
  13. "The day will come when the mystical generation of Jesus by the Supreme Being in the womb of a virgin, will be classed with the fable of the generation of Minerva in the brain of Jupiter."-Thomas Jefferson
  14. Did you really read the ariticle because those guys who went on the bus actually were looking for the union leaders. The ariticle doesn't say that 4,000 union murders were the US fault. You know maybe the US shouldn't be supporting countries like Saudia Arabia and China two of the BIGGEST human right violators and non-democratic countries in the world, but hey just because the government says we should export democracy and American values doesn't mean we will. Money over values any day.
  15. Well here is the thing if China is not the main country in Asian who is? Thailand, Burma, laos, North Korea, Malasysia who.
