Why I use Clipmarks
I do a lot of research for my friends and myself. I thought Clipmarks would be ideal for clipping segments and tagging rather than editing info that I've saved to my hard drive in docs. It's been everything and more than I imagined it would be, and is a great time saver. I also enjoy sharing comments on current events or topics of interest. It's nice to be able to re-visit information without worrying whether the original web bookmark is still valid. Thanks Clipmarks!

 for not reading their fine print. Let's see, I give you my email address and you charge my credit card a fee each month? Oh but how did you say you got my credit card info? Just talking this out loud because it's so horrific. And to think we were worried about AIG and ponzy man.

 Read up. Would love to know how many people pull out of the websites their card #'s are stored with. There are also a few other similar articles. Some are follow ups. Orbitz, Continental, Fandango and many more are mentioned.

Taking a Stand

 Article was interesting. However, it switched gears a bit in the last half where the author hits on the other issues like UN Protocol and complaints from leader(s) about the UN Charter vs what is really taking place within.

I Can Think of Better Jobs for MICHigan
bookchick49
by bookchick49  8-3-2009    2
 I'm kind of getting tired of politicians thinking Michigan can be a dumping ground for their prisoners, with the idea of promoting employment opportunities in MI. This is BS in so many ways. I do not want terrorists (known or suspected) on US soil, do you?? If California pursues Michigan prisons to dump their prisoners because they cannot afford to house them, who do you think is going to take the economic hit for this when Cal can't pay the bill? This is no different to me than Detroit politicians dumping toxic waste under the table with our tax dollars. Why not turn the Standish prison into some type of rehabilitation facility for drug and alcohol addicts, or temporary housing or emergency medical? There are other more positive ways to create jobs. I vote: TAKE NO PRISONERS!!

 Many people may believe that Obama 'could do and say more.' Maybe nothing is the thing to do - while we sit and wait it out, seems Iran may be shifting blame to Britain by expelling diplomats.

Is the Adam Walsh Act failing in the States?
bookchick49
by bookchick49  3-11-2009   
 I suppose the $12 to $37 million that it would cost each state to implement isn't worth a child's life. The individual states would rather loose 10% of their funding than put this act in motion by July 27. Sad shame.

China's Space Mission a Success.... at who's expense?

 How much milk did they taint for this? How much did they scrimp on quality for exportation to other countries in order to afford their space rendezvous? I bet.... if we were to ban certain imports from China, it will be a long time before they are seen in space again. grrrrr

WTF ? (Warheads That Fly?)

by bookchick49  9-5-2007   
 You know how much this totally sucks?!! I am appalled and there is this part of me that wants to take this to the streets and say W... T.... F..... ????!!! oK. So I'm not an activist AT ALL. And I wish I could share just how shredded I feel inside. This is so totally wrong. It will also be interesting to see just what is done to correct it or prevent it from happening again. I can't even imagine how the pilots must of felt when they learned of this. *Shuddering in total disbelief*

Call Out to Protect our Water
bookchick49
by bookchick49  8-20-2007   
 “I believe the proposal to allow increased dumping of ammonia and toxic sludge into Lake Michigan from British Petroleum's oil refinery in Whiting, Indiana is unconscionable. Certainly a company that claims to be "Beyond Petroleum" can also be beyond polluting our waters. "Please halt progress on this proposal now and find a way to deal with the waste this plant produces other than dumping more of it into Lake Michigan."

Who Will Save His Sorry Butt or Let Him Hang?
bookchick49
by bookchick49  12-28-2006    7
 I'm having a hard time understanding what all the fuss is about. First, I feel that it will only get worse in Iraq once Sadam is gone, but this isn't saying that I disagree with the penalty. Second, we all know who will be blamed for his death. Third, I feel that after many (if not most) of his attorneys and a few judges were slaughtered by Sadam's followers, this surviving attorney may be calling this plea in an attempt to save his own life, after all is said and done. You know, as in proof of "I did everything I could to save his sorry butt, so don't kill me too." Lastly, if Sadam is saved by the bell, who pays to keep him alive in prison and where does he live out his sentence? If it's coming from my hard earned dollars, then hang him. If it's coming out of the pockets of decent hard working Iraqi's then they have some decisions to make. I only hope they make the right one.

 I have a feeling that Munich is probably not alone in their concern (call it what you will), but do find it interesting that more are speaking out about it. In the long run, I wonder where 'speaking out' will eventually take this issue. Is it actually fear based? Or is it a feeling of being 'pushed out?' Or is it merely prejudice? Probably all of the above.
