Mountain Buggy Urban Double Stroller saves a life WASHINGTON (Reuters) -- Sen. Hillary Clinton pressed Thursday for a government investigation into how simulated sex cropped up in a modified version of the blockbuster criminal adventure video game "Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas."
Clinton asked the Federal Trade Commission to investigate the origins of a downloadable modification that allows simulated sex in the personal computer version of one of the most popular and controversial video games in history.
"We should all be deeply disturbed that a game which now permits the simulation of lewd sexual acts in an interactive format with highly realistic graphics has fallen into the hands of young people across the country," Clinton wrote in a letter to the head of the Federal Trade Commission.I think the trick is KEEPING AN EYE ON YOUR OWN DAMN KIDS. Any stupid kid with a computer can just type "pussy" into any search engine and prolly see more then they can in the game.
I need San Andreas for computer
I had sat in a factory 25 years being told I wasn't smart enough to do anything but work a sewing machine," Comeau said. "Nobody wanted to hear my ideas or thoughts. When I went back to college, I learned you're expected to speak up in class and express an opinion. It absolutely blew me away. All of a sudden I realized I've got more than just a pair of hands.Scarecrow got a brain...(that was mean wasn't it, I'm sorry.)
I DEMAND A ROAD TRIP TO ND Go to the places that the SUICIDE bombers really keep close to their hearts and BOMB THE SHIT OUT OF THEM, cause that will make them feel all warm and fuzzy and not want to use their body’s as shrapnel anymore to kill us...us=the people that just went and bombed their most sacred places. But ideological predictability, whether on the right or left -- as opposed to predictably thoughtful, well-reasoned legal thinking -- should not be the primary goal in choosing a justice. Someone who can think for next justice please. I mean...thinking is important and stuff.
Now...we try to be nice, but you might not be able to get by me with that HUGE SUV, Go ahead and hit me...you only weigh about 10 times what I do.I agree with the writer of the July 13 letter ("Cyclists share the blame") who points out that cyclists should obey all traffic laws, but I think he is missing the point.
It is illegal and unacceptable for cyclists to break traffic laws. However, it does not give motorists the right to perform dangerous and life-threatening tactics such as swerving at and cutting cyclists off to persuade them to obey traffic laws or intimidate them into not riding the roads.
I ride the roads quite often in Bloomington, and find that I'm harassed even while obeying all traffic laws.
Cyclists and motorists both have equal rights to be on the road; let police officers take care of traffic enforcement. That's their job, not the job of disgruntled motorists.

A shared responsibility
Two letters to the Star Tribune last week are excellent examples of why the State Bicycle Advisory Committee (SBAC), with the support of the Minnesota Department of Transportation, launched a bicycle-safety education campaign called Share the Road.
The goal of the campaign is to eliminate deaths and reduce injuries resulting from bicycle-motor vehicle collisions.
The Share the Road campaign is aimed at both bicyclists and motorists, since they are equally responsible for bicycle safety. The No. 1 factor contributing to accidents is failure to yield the right of way.
The campaign highlights these seven rules of the road:
• Bicycles are legal vehicles on all Minnesota roads, except interstate highways.
• Bicyclists should ride on the road and must ride in the same direction as traffic.
• Motorists must at all times maintain a 3-foot clearance when passing a bicycle.
• Bicyclists must obey all traffic-control signs and signals, just as motorists must obey them.
• Bicyclists and motorists must yield the right-of-way to each other equally.
• Bicyclists must signal their turns and should ride in a predictable manner.
• Bicyclists should always wear a helmet.
