Are Lottery Syndicates legal in Pa.?

Curious if a group of organized lottery players try their luck at beating the odds and playing a smarter game with mathematical formula or system in place, the best way to win any lottery is to simply play more tickets and increase your odds of winning, Is such an organized group or syndicate legal in Pa ? You here from time to time about a group of people who have hit the lottery, can organizing such a group be legal to operate in Pa. ?Are Lottery Syndicates legal in Pa.?
the more tickets you buy the more chance there is of winning. yah i guess that makes sense. but isnt there as much a chance of losing than winning.

How much does it typically cost for the right to broadcast a nationally syndicated radio program?

I want to get a sports radio station off the ground and I assume that I won't have the resources to air original programming 24/7. I would like to include national programs from ESPN Radio, Fox Sports Radio, Sporting News Radio, and independant programs like Jim Rome. What is the typical financial arrangement for such contracts?How much does it typically cost for the right to broadcast a nationally syndicated radio program?
It depends on whether your station is network affiliated or not (ABC,CNN, CBS, etc.) Often times, these programs are available for no cost. You provide the air time so the shows get larger reach and clearance for their existing advertisers. You must agree to air a certain amount of "network" commercials per hour, per the terms of the contract. You will need the appropriate satellite receiver equipment/transponders to pick up these feeds, and depending on whether you will air them live, or record them for broadcast during another hour during the day, may even need background recording equipment to do so.

How do I start a career as a cartoonist for newspapers, without a syndicate?

I have a year's worth of comic strips, but I don't know if I have to start my strip at the same place with each newspaper. Or should I show only original strips to each paper? And I don't know anything about contracts.How do I start a career as a cartoonist for newspapers, without a syndicate?
How old are you? If you attend college, start out by getting your comic in the student newspaper - it's usually a trivial task, you just have to ask them and send a few samples along to the appropriate editor.



As for big name papers, I wouldn't know, but again I would start out small. Find some local papers with a comics section, and write to the A%26amp;E editor, or Opinions editor (those would be my best suggestions as to who to contact, unless you see a title that makes more sense.) Tell them that you are interested in trying to get published, tell them how long you've been working, and what sort of appeal you think your comic has. Talk about why you think your comic would be a good addition to the paper. Send some of your best samples, and refer them to a link to a website displaying your full/partial collection. Put yourself out there as much as possible, and a few are bound to write you back. Just pester them every week or two, if they don't respond the first time around.

How are syndicated television programs formatted to allocate commercial blocks, etc.?

Specifically, I had an idea for an hour long TV show. I would like to know what is expected for the formatting, especially the advertisement blocks, of such a show.

    Is it ok if i befriend and adopt the beggars on the streets?

    will the syndicates harm me? i really pity the beggars...especially the elderly and children. do u have any knowledge about them...their background..etc..?? what is the best way to help these beggars?Is it ok if i befriend and adopt the beggars on the streets?
    What Anthony D said is true, at Indonesia mostly they are just being used by their lazy worthless parents also. Giving them money not just going to make the parent using of them but also making the children lazy too. Imagine some beggars making profitable income rather than working people! Mine for example, my last salary no more than 1 million rupiahs per month, their income (I read the news on the newspaper recently) is 1.5 millions rupiahs per month! It make sense when at the traffic light the beggars get 1000 rupiahs or so, in 1 day they get 50,000 rupiahs for 50 people. In 30 days they get 1.5 millions rupiahs!



    If you pity them then provide them with mini library (because they don't school), make arts and music community or giving working skill for them, give them work, and other positive thing, not just give them the money that make them lazy and stiil being used by their parents too! Its ok to be friend with them, even great thing if you can protect them from rough action from their parents.



    You can't adopt the children that easily. There is law about adoption, one of them is act number 23 year 2001 about Children Protection (Undang-Undang nomor 23 tahun 2001 tentang Perlindungan Anak ---%26gt; read it). You must have permit from the local/district court to adopt children. You can't adopt just any children that still has parent. Also there is maximal age for adoption!



    Good luck for your good deeds!
    Not much you can do for the elderly, but the children, ask them to bring you to their parents. When they do, punch the parents in the mouth, and tell them to take care of their children.



    I know its sad, but I see this all the time in the Philippines, where I live, and 9 out of 10 times, the parent(s) get the money from their kids so they can sit on their asses, and get drunk all day. I pity the kids, but I know that they are just being used by their lazy worthless parents, and I am not going to feed their drinking habits.Is it ok if i befriend and adopt the beggars on the streets?
    i bet the beggars wont be adopt by you or anyone.
    just give them a couple thousand rupiah. they will be very happy.Is it ok if i befriend and adopt the beggars on the streets?
    no just give them a dollar....

    Do the activites on the side.



    It doesn't matter if they are already completed.



    Best suggestion is choose snatch on hard.



    After attacking the Morning Star gang, and getting more of their people to show up, exit the activity.



    Those Morning Star people should still be there, and then you can attack them and get your notoriety up.

    What's the difference between an Underwriting Syndicate and a Warehouse Lender?

    Definition of Underwriting Syndicate: Temporary group of underwriters and investment banks formed for marketing of a new bond or share (stock) issue that is too large for any single entity to handle. It is dissolved after completion of the sale of the securities. Also called underwriting group.





    Definition of Warehouse Lender: A business that loans to temporary lenders against some form of security or collateral of closed mortgage loans before selling the loans in the secondary market. This state of flux is known as being "in the warehouse," and warehouse lenders can call these loans if they lose value while in such a state.

    Tell me your not out there trying to figure out how to make you hard earned money last and go further? Just like anyone. You have probably hedged your income the best you can. It may be for you, like me, finding a way to live within what little I have and making it last longer. So I hedge my money a little by austerity in expenses where someone else may sacrifice their immediate needs and be able to save more. Then you have the guy who has more to lose if he doesn't show some austerity too like putting his income where he thinks it will help him best and be there when he needs it. Simple survival techniques to help one save and put their money where they want it.Do you think hedge funds are stupid enough to label hedge funds excessive monopolism as anti capitalism?
    I don't think that excessive monopolism is anti-capitalistic. In fact, quite the opposite is true, that capitalism actually allows for excessive monopolism and in fact encourages all forms of monopoly and oligarchy for the sake of profits.

    Why are our troops/military fighting in wastelands, why don't we send them to Mexico to actually protect us?

    US Law Enforcement says the Drug Cartels are the most sophisticated organized crime syndicates in US History, they're also supporting gangs in major US Cities. Why are we wasting taxpayer dollars in Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan when we face the greatest threat on our southern border and not thousands of miles away? If Obama decided to send troops to Mexico, I would actually sign up for combat.Why are our troops/military fighting in wastelands, why don't we send them to Mexico to actually protect us?
    Our government is on the side of the drug dealers, who sent assault rifles so they can kill US agents and anyone else they want.



    With Obama's new amnesty rule, the illegals are jumping across the border with glee.
    I dont think we could fight the crime cartels with conventional warfare, if we did fight the cartels actively, it would have to be covert ops, assasinations, sabotage, that kind of thingWhy are our troops/military fighting in wastelands, why don't we send them to Mexico to actually protect us?
    A splendid idea lad, you should be president.

    Seriously they really need to protect the borders not fight foreign war for the sake of economy and good of the citizens.

    I thought protecting Mexico was a Mexican problem.
    So that Al-Qaeda doesn't reestablish itself in Afghanistan and Pakistan.

    Is it time to reinvigorate cooperatives in our local communities?

    Given that the current financial and corporate structure has prov en to be dysfunctional, should we not start looking at alternatives such as cooperatives, syndicates and similar local organizations that we, the people, can control?



    Would you be willing to participate if there where a local food coop or even bank with a local savings and loan instead of a large, multinational bank?



    http://www.ica.coop/ica/index.htmlIs it time to reinvigorate cooperatives in our local communities?
    Try a Credit Union in place of your bank. Credit Unions are NOT FOR PROFIT organizations, while banks are only in business to make a profit.



    And if you like the idea of a "food coop", try shopping a your local farmers market. They grow the crops and sell them too.

    If there is no such thing as a conspiracy and Conspiracy Theorists are "crazy", why do we have RICO Laws?

    Doesn't the fact that crime syndicates have been convicted under RICO Laws PROVE there are Conspiracies?

    Isn't it just a matter of the Size of the Conspiracy, and No one wants to consider such a huge conspiracy may be the likely reason that No solutions to real problems can be found?If there is no such thing as a conspiracy and Conspiracy Theorists are "crazy", why do we have RICO Laws?
    Most people think that it takes hundreds or thousands of people to pull off the really big conspiracies and figure there would have to be "at least one person" that would come forward to tell all. They don't understand that compartmentalization of our government means that it actually takes a very few people to see the big picture and not hundreds.



    Just because something is a theory doesn't mean its not true.



    Fight the NWO!
    No one has ever said there is no such thing as conspiracy. It's a term used in law; "An agreement between two or more persons to engage jointly in an unlawful or criminal act, or an act that is innocent in itself but becomes unlawful when done by the combination of actors."



    Charlie Manson is in jail on a conspiracy conviction, not murder.



    There's a difference between a legal conspiracy and a conspiracy theory. And some conspiracy theories have a modicum of truth, but aren't completely real. Some conspiracy theories are just based on paranoia (i.e. FEMA camps).If there is no such thing as a conspiracy and Conspiracy Theorists are "crazy", why do we have RICO Laws?
    Genius! With this Y/A post you have single handily proved the earth is run by shape changing aliens and the Illuminati, 9/11 was an "inside job", and the government really does have mind control satellites. All this was made possible because the US recognizes that conspiracies in crime should be illegal.
    Whoever said that there was no such thing as a conspiracy? Conspiracy is a legal concept, and it does exist.



    Just because somebody thinks that many conspiracy theories are crazy and not true doesn't mean they believe that there is no such thing as a conspiracy.If there is no such thing as a conspiracy and Conspiracy Theorists are "crazy", why do we have RICO Laws?
    Conspiracies are real, and one of the ways people defend against accusations about their own conspiracies is to make their opponent appear paranoid.
    if there is a real global conspiracy, it is hidden by all the nut-job conspiracies!
    no one has ever said there are NO conspiracies. Just the 9/11 nuts and a few others are fringe level tinfoil hat wearing jerks.
    Only liberal conspiracy theories are legitimate to these people.
    There are all sorts of conspiracies--Some good some bad

    How does a syndicate made up of charities and goodwill organisations afford to buy a billion dollar company?

    I work for a huge childcare company worth billions and it has recently been taken over by a syndicate made up of non-for-profit charities and goodwill organisations. My question is, how the hell are they paying for this company? Charities dont usually sit around on millions of dollars...How does a syndicate made up of charities and goodwill organisations afford to buy a billion dollar company?
    Whoever gave you the idea that nonprofits don't have financial resources? They operate mostly the same as most regular companies, except the profits or revenue generated are not distributed to any individual or shareholders, but must be retained and used for the advancement of the mission of the nonprofits. Some nonprofits can receive grants in the millions of dollars. Hospitals and universities can be nonprofit organizations, and they may very well be sitting on substantial financial resources. And your question states the company was taken over by a syndicate of multiple nonprofit organizations, which indicates that none individually had sufficient resources to do so, only by pooling the funds they had were they able to afford the takeover.

    It is a numerical daily lottery played for very low stakes.

    At one time the daily number was the last 3 numbers in the day's close of the Dow Jones.

    In this way the betters could always see if they hit.

    Now the government also offers 'daily numbers' games and more advanced forms like Powerball.

    What is the difference between a syndicated and non-syndicated column?

    I know the word “Syndicated” means a group of business or people but I don't know what a syndicated column is.What is the difference between a syndicated and non-syndicated column?
    A non-syndicated column is one that appears in just one publication, so it's exclusive. An example would be Stephen King's column in Entertainment Weekly - you won't find it anywhere else.

    http://www.ew.com/ew/package/0,12938,472…



    A syndicated column appears in multiple publications, whether newspapers or magazines. Usually it's done through a major syndicate or news corporation - the New York Times Syndicate, Gannett, Newhouse News Service, etc. - though sometimes syndicated columns get sold through smaller services. There are tons of columnists to choose from - Michelle Malkin, Mickey Kaus, Dave Barry and Roger Ebert, just to name a few.What is the difference between a syndicated and non-syndicated column?
    Having failed to get my column syndicated, you have presented me with an opportunity to rant against the decision makers of syndicates.



    However, to be kind, I shall avoid the harsh comments.





    A syndicate is a group of people (in the instant case) who have contracts with newspapers (or electronic media).



    Those contracts allow the purchaser of one or more columns to have exclusive rights to each purchased column in a particular area and/or for a time certain.



    The purchased column(s) cannot be sold by the syndicate to a competing entity unless the contract permits such an action. Nor can the author sell his column to such a competing entity.



    When a person writes columns, those columns can be sold, granted, or otherwise provided to a syndicate. That syndicate places each column in a package with columns written by others.



    The entire package (or each column - depending upon the contract) is then available for purchase by all subscribers to the syndicate.





    In short, if I have a few great columns, I can send them to one or more newspapers by myself. The overworked editor can read over my columns (or not!) and make a decision as to whether or not the columns are worth the space. [Note Bene: The only thing editors have to work with of great tangible value is space in the paper.]



    I am able to elect to send my column to one or more papers with my own stamps. If this option is chosen, then my column is not syndicated.



    If I am good enough, a syndicate can place my column in their package and send it to many newspapers using their stamps, If this option is chosen, then my column is syndicated.

    Yep!! Printer manufacturers have had a ball with the ink issue.What model is your printer.??I have had success with JetTec inks and chip resetters on supposedly unrefillable carts!!.Have you tried the Inksaver software.?

I tried to source the real costs of inks but drew a blank and thats why I took the plunge and managed to refill the unfillable carts .Gave me some satisfaction not to be lining the pockets of the big boys !!
    I doubt that it's impossible to refill Canon cartridges.

    New Canon cartridges CLI-8, PGI-5, PG-40,50, CL-41,51,52 are all refillable. You can get instructions at http://fillserv.com/support/refillinstru鈥?/a>Where can I get information about the material cost of ink?

    Will we settle for 40% reported unemployment, like Kenya?



    Will all syndicates come under the grip of one strong man, like they are in Kenya under control of Obama's cousin, Raila "The Butcher of Mombassa" Odinga?Will African style socialism work in America?
    No way, no how!
    You're bound to get the standard leftist objection "You don't understand what socialism is."



    See the answers to my question:



    What IS socialism? An escape from poverty, or a luxury for prosperous exporter nations?



    I have asked this question several times. Each time, I get answers from around a dozen persons. And no two of them give the same answer.



    But each person is supremely confident that his or her definition is the right one, and that this is the authoritative definition that we should all view as the true meaning of socialism. Even more amusing is, even though the other answers are plainly visible to them, each person seems blissfully aware that nobody else agrees with their chosen definition. Less amusingly, even though they consistently demonstrate a total lack of consensus about what socialism is, they frequently mock and berate opponents of socialism for "not understanding" what socialism is, then they invariably fail to demonstrate that they understand, either.



    Their answers tend to fall into four general categories:



    The purist view: Socialism has never existed anywhere. No nation has ever established a pure socialist state according to the original definition of socialism. Subgroups of this view include those who declare that socialism is a stepping stone to communism, which is correct according to the original definition; others dutifully recite the definition from the dictionary.



    The indiscriminate vew: Socialism already exists almost everywhere. All forms of public works and charity are socialist, because they are done to benefit all of society. Roads, bridges, schools, police/fire departments, national defense, and charities to help the poor are all forms of socialism. And almost all nations have at least some of these, therefore all nations are socialist.



    The progressive view: Socialism exists in certain "progressive" nations, such as Canada and many countries in Europe. Some individuals count Japan as a "progressive" socialist nation. The individuals who hold to this view seem unaware that most of these so called "progressive" nations are highly capitalistic exporter nations, which seems to contradict the idea of having some form of Marxism. And the "progressive" nations that are not strong exporters are debtor nations. See this website to get the economic statstics for these nations:



    http://www.tradingeconomics.com/Economic鈥?/a>



    The remnant of communism view: Socialism exists in formerly communist nations that have not yet fully abandoned Marxism, and they are making a gradual transition to capitalism. This view is rarely cited, but I include it here for completeness.



    Of course, there are also various answers from those who strenuously oppose socialism. I am focused here on the answers from those who advocte socialism, or who give a neutral but objective answer.



    The only thing that seems to be the common thread of socialist advocacy is: taking money from those who have it, and giving money to those who don't. And we're all supposed to believe that the advocates have no motive other than pure unaduterated altruism in their hearts.



    So the fundamental question is: how can we regard socialism as a viable political cause when even its most ardent advocates can't agree on what it is? And when there is scant actual evidence that it exists or ever has existed, other than as a remnant of a failed communist state?Will African style socialism work in America?
    Kenya is a democratic republic, just like us. Do you like find articles out of the garbage from 20 years ago, where the hell are you getting all your information?

    Just keep the phone on you or don't bring it to school
    Keep it in your pocket at ALL times. If you have a Gym class, use your locker, and make sure no body knows your locker combination, or has a copy of your key (or gets your key).

    Keep the phone locked at ALL times too, so if it gets stolen the person cannot access your iphone without the password.How can I prevent my iPhone 4 being stolen at school?
    Put a lock code on your phone; also, if there's someone in particular that has the box, make sure they know it's yours. Put a label on, or a case with your name.
    you could put a passcode on it and ask the person in charge of the phone box to ask anybody who takes an iphone to see if they can unlock itHow can I prevent my iPhone 4 being stolen at school?
    Simply put a tracking chip in your phone, and im sure there are a few anti-theft tracking apps. Or....keep it on your person at all times.
    lock it

    The use of suggestion and covert hypnosis by con artists?

    con artist have to be good amateur psychologists, they use covert persuasion i.e. covert hypnosis and covert suggestion and then look for body language reactions. they also operate in large syndicates that can encompass a town or be global. can anyone elaborate on this statement?The use of suggestion and covert hypnosis by con artists?
    Con artists don't learn from books as they are naturals. They learn at a very young age how to benefit from their ability and often end up on the wrong side of the law.

    Why has there been an increase in Human Trafficking in the last 3 decades?

    I need as much detail as possible, explanations on the schengen treaty, transnational organised syndicates, the collapse of the soviet union and anything else that may have contributed to it would be great, thanks in advance!Why has there been an increase in Human Trafficking in the last 3 decades?
    According to the UN database,human trafficking has been increasing worldwide.The target countries are the US,Canada,Europe,Japan,South Korea,Taiwan and Singapore. In the US black list,only the Philippines was taken out of the list due to effective performance of the local government by raising the years in prison from 6 to 25.That means,the issue has not lost any interest on the US soil.Human trafficking is not only for sexual purpose,but also a lure of easy money by taking jobs in developed countries.They might come legally,but become an illegal immigrant later.And they might even have a chance to apply for citizenship.You can find them in reality at the sweatshops through out the country.Why has there been an increase in Human Trafficking in the last 3 decades?
    It's not exactly an increase in trafficking. Trafficking has always been there and always been a huge market. What has changed is our awareness especially among the average citizens of the world. With current media and fighters for social justice, we are able to see what is going on better than ever before. Globalization has also change the slave trade market from regional to global which causes more publicity as well. Any time there is impoverished nation they are at risk for things like that. Former Soviet Union is one of many. Asia also has these problems as well as Africa, South America, and Latin America. Even within the United States we have women, men, and children being trafficked on a daily basis... these are American citizens even!Why has there been an increase in Human Trafficking in the last 3 decades?
    All the evidence I have seen suggests that human trafficking is declining. You are under the illusion that it is increasing because of increased media attention. That very attention is what contributes to the decline.

    What does the pro amnesty intend to do about this Mexican border region is experiencing raising crime rate?

    The federal government acknowledges that the United States-Mexican border region has been experiencing an alarming rise in the level of criminal cartel activity, including drug and human smuggling, which has placed significant additional burdens on Federal, State, and local law enforcement agencies The U.S. border with Mexico extends nearly 2,000 miles along the southern borders of California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. In most areas, the border is located in remote and sparsely populated areas of vast desert and rugged mountain terrain with vast open water of the Gulf of Mexico and the Pacific oceans.



    The U.S. government admits that the border麓s vast length and varied terrain poses significant challenges to U.S. law enforcement efforts to control the entry of individuals and goods into the United States.



    The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is the federal agency with primary responsibility to detect and prevent illegal entry into the United States. The latest available data indicates that approximately 11,000 CBP agents patrol the nearly 6,000 miles of international border the United States shares with its neighbors Mexico and Canada.While the Southwest border hosts robust legal commercial activity, the border also is the site of violent criminal enterprises. These enterprises are carried out by organized criminal syndicates of Mexican/American cartels, gangs and international terrorist which include the smuggling of WMD's, drugs, humans, weapons, and cash across the U.S.Mexico border.



    With the latest available government static's reporting that during 2005, Border Patrol apprehended approximately 1.2 million illegal aliens; of those 165,000 were from countries other than Mexico. Of the non-Mexican aliens, approximately 650 were from so called special interest countries. Special interest countries are those "designated by the intelligence community as countries that could export individuals that could bring harm to our country in the way of terrorism." Global Terrorist And Drug Trafficking Cartels are



    a significant portion of illegal activity at the border that relates to illegal drug smuggling. The triple plus threat of drug smuggling, illegal and unknown crossers and rising violence are the reality facing communities.



    http://www.americanchronicle.com/article鈥?/a>What does the pro amnesty intend to do about this Mexican border region is experiencing raising crime rate?
    the same thing we always do: either catch and release (not talking about fishing) or arrest them, try and convict them in our court system, jail them for 5-25 years, deport them so they can come back new and improved criminals thanks to our outstanding penal system.
    We will be told that these are just hard working people coming for a better life and after all we are all immigrant, so who are we to prevent them from what we all want. Then they will do something to say they are doing something like vote to have a fence build which doesn't keep anyone out anyway. So, basically, they will keep doing and saying what they are already saying. One other thing to consider. When the Mexican population gets big enough and they start to vote things will change. We may finally just throw the border wide open and become another Mexico.What does the pro amnesty intend to do about this Mexican border region is experiencing raising crime rate?
    The pro-illegal groups, like NCLR, do not talk about the crimes committed by illegals; rather they will call you a racist for pointing it out. They are attacking Lou Dobbs and trying to get him fired at CNN. The lying scoundrels!



    The border is a war zone, but the neo-con Bush administration doesn't want our police to be to tough on the illegals. BP agents Ramos and Compean our still in prison for doing their jobs. How can they protect our border when they are afraid of being sent to prison for harming the illegal invaders? They should be allowed to use lethal force to stop the illegals from entering our country.
    The pro amnesty group will simply ignore this fact, just like they ignore all facts.What does the pro amnesty intend to do about this Mexican border region is experiencing raising crime rate?
    I think the issue will continue to be 'white washed' like it has been since the Eisenhower era.
    Sing Kumbaya while Americans are killed indiscriminately in this hispanic invasion.
    They will say that we have to understand these people don't know or respect our laws.



    Then they will say we have to legalize drugs so that the crime stats aren't so high.

    Do you agree that the present laws for crimes committed by minors be amended?

    Cong. Escudero is putting it into effect. Many criminal syndicates use minors to commit crimes to get away from it. Kiko Pangilinan was said to authored this before but now is denying it.Do you agree that the present laws for crimes committed by minors be amended?
    I do not think the problem is with the laws. I think the problem is that the law requires the juveniles not to be put in adult prisons and in the Philippines there are not enough facilities to take them in so they are generally released after convicted.Do you agree that the present laws for crimes committed by minors be amended?
    In Iloilo today, the TBS 13 gang is very hot, they had been killing taxi drivers with many blows, often the victim have more than 20 stabbed wounds. A few days ago, one of their leaders was found dead. He was shot more than 20 times. Most members of the TBS 13 gang is mostly minors, HS students. The leaders of the gang entered the group when they were minors also. The initiation of the gang is to hold-up a taxi driver then kill him by stabbing several times.

    With the crimes committed by these minors, I have to say that law should be amended, but the amendments should allow these minors to be rehabilitated, and that they should not be mixed to the adult offenders. There should be a program to rehabilitate these minors.Do you agree that the present laws for crimes committed by minors be amended?
    teenage boy's are brain damaged,its usually a temporary condition and most recover eventually,hard prison time is just a training school for a life of crime,first time offenders should be given a second chance,perhaps a facility that has a trade teaching Program would be better
    It should be abrogated.

    Should coverage of the Tour de France focus entirely on Lance Armstrong?

    I have been watching the OLN coverage and I almost never see Lance. The only reason I watch the tour is to see Lance race and I think that is the only reason most Americans give a fik about this race. What is the matter with the TV syndicates? Don't they understand that no one gives a fik about a Contador or and Evans? All we want is the drama of Lance Armstrong. Am I right or am I right?Should coverage of the Tour de France focus entirely on Lance Armstrong?
    When asked to name a professional racer, most Americans can only name Lance. That's OK, because it's a place to start. Lance has become to cycling like Emeril is to cooking: no longer the greatest but he did get lots of people interested. My GF started watching the Tour to follow Lance but now she's a real Andy Schleck fan.



    HTH
    LMAO! Is this a joke?



    This year and last Lance hasnt seemed as on-form as his previous years in the Tour. Contador has certainly been much more exciting, as was Cancellara with that descent last year.



    It does kind of annoy me how so many people say Armstrong is doped. He is the most tested cyclist in professional cycling - they'd find something eventually, and given how so many riders have been caught out without testing he'd have to be a genius at covering his tracks, LOL!Should coverage of the Tour de France focus entirely on Lance Armstrong?
    Armstrong is a doped! and I only care about Contador. I'm not American of course but you should know the images filmed by the french are transmited for all the countries in the globe. And they feel exactly like you. For example, I'm portuguese and I don't want them only to show S茅rgio Paulinho and Rui Costa. i understand that cyclism is about all riders. the riders who I like (Contador, A.Schlek, Ivan Basso, Farrar, Hushovd, Rui Costa and Kl枚den) and the ones I don't (like doped Armstrong, Cavendish and Evans).
    The Tour has many stories. To people living outside the United States, Lance may be popular, but the race is bigger than one man. Even though he is a 7 time winner, this year he is one of many contenders, and not even the favourite to win this year. From my point of view he probably gets more coverage than he deserves, and will get even more if he does better than expected.Should coverage of the Tour de France focus entirely on Lance Armstrong?
    the reason you dont see lance that much is because the french are the ones who are filming the whole tour. they do show him a fair amount and he gets more attention than almost everyone, if not everyone. I mean what would they be recording about him? the last two stages are flat and all he is doing is sitting in the main field not attacking. no one needs to have a camera on him riding comfortably.



    BUtt if the americans were filming it, he would have a bit more face time.
    man please,if the only reason you are watching the tour de france is to see lance armstrong you need to get a life.don't get me wrong i like lance and would really like to see him win another tdf,BUT there are plenty of other riders that are damm good,and can give lance a run for his money,as for contador i could care less about him,BUT there a bunch of other guys that i would like to see win the tour,
    Randy



    OLN, buddy.... you are dating yourself! Versus has been telecasting the tour exclusively for five years!



    No, I do not think that I want to see a 'Lance Special'. I like the race for what it is .... the best riders in the world racing across France to ultimate victory. I enjoy many riders, from many countries. Because the broadcasts are taken from French TV coverage, Versus has only limited camera shots to take advantage of.



    Besides, who wants an exclusive camera only on Lance.... I really don't want to see him taking a 'rest break' for something to fill dead air time with! "Oh look, that is Lance yawning"! and my favorite, "and there is Lance doing a Farmer Blow into the wind.... now that's biking"! :-)



    Soccerref
    Yes and No. Be a little more open minded and learn a little.



    On the other hand, Lance is the Michael Jordan of cycling. You can't be faulted for wanting to see the greatest cyclist who ever lived.



    BTW, to the idiot who said Lance is a doper...Go f#ck yourself. Lance is probably the greatest endurance athlete who ever lived and if you chauvinist pigs can't tolerate the idea of an American being that good: live with it. Your sour grapes are embarrassing.
    No you are not right, those who want 24/7 Lance will probably on July 26 go back into hiding or doing what ever and not keep up with the cycling world. If you want Lance, Lance, Lance go to the Vs., team Radioshack or Livestrong web sites and get your fill.



    It's not about the Lance.

  • How did Singapore(a tiny country with no natural resource) become so rich with foreign reserves?

    1. Pure hardwork of the people and ingenuity of the Govenment.



    2. Singapore is/was a money-laundering place for crime syndicates.



    3. Unethical Govenment Investment Companies that keep buying into companies that "make money".



    4. Labour Exploitation of third world immigrants in the region and National Servicemen ( paying them peanuts for their work).



    5. Most big companies in the state are owned by the Government.



    6. Neverending taxes on the citizens.



    7. Others?How did Singapore(a tiny country with no natural resource) become so rich with foreign reserves?
    I have no guts to type anything bad about our Government. Maybe I can list down a few things that $ goes in fast, Which everyone is can see.



    1. Compare the amount you buy a 4 room flat and the cost to build it.



    2. ERP, count how many vehicle passes through per hour.

    Example: CTE. It cost me about $3.75 on bike from AMK to town, but still jammed.

    The biggest joke is my bread first is only about $2 only($0.80 coffee + $1.00 for 2 char siew pao).



    3. Go TP at Ubi. sit there for 30min.

    Count the ppl paying fine, assume $30 each. Jaw dropped?



    4. GST. put 7% aside. Take 5%.

    Assume everyone here earn $1000 per month. Saving $500 in bank. Balance $500 for spending and all bills. 5% of $500 per head, that's $25.

    Multiply with half of our population. Cool, right.



    That is just my assumption, change the income if you think is too low.



    Above are fully my own view, and does not represent anyone else.



    Also, may not be accurate and may not be the fact.



    Once again, I have no intention to stir up any trouble or emotional reaction. Just read and forget. After all, I am just answering to above question.How did Singapore(a tiny country with no natural resource) become so rich with foreign reserves?
    Singapore is a rich nation with poor citizen. The Government is one of the highest paid Government in the world, yet Singapore is one of the lower population in the world. How they become rich? I do the calculation:



    1. COE, ARF %26amp; duty on Motor Car. There are about 5000 new car registered every month. COE cost about S$10,000, ARF %26amp; duty is 130% on vehicle OMV (Open Market Value). Which meant a normal 1.8 l car with OMV of S20,000, ARF is S$26,000. So, total revenue the Governement can earn on that alone per month is about S36,000 * 5000 = S$180,000,000! What about a year????



    2. Tobacco. One packet of toabcco cost about S$11, out of it, about S$8 is duty paid to the Government. Assume 1 day 200,000 packets sold, Duty is S$1,600,000, one month is S$49,600,000!! What about a year???



    I just have to list out these two, you can see how much revenue can be generated from the citizen per year?



    It's 180,000,000 * 12 + 49,600,000 * 12

    = 2,160,000,000 + 595,200,000

    = S$2,755,200,000 (about S$2.75 billion)



    These exclude income tax, GST, fine, ERP, Duty on other goods, and many............How did Singapore(a tiny country with no natural resource) become so rich with foreign reserves?
    it has to do with economic policy, which is inextricably linked with social/political policy. first you have to understand the nature of our government, it's officially a democracy but operates more like a 'benevolent dictatorship'. you're right in saying that many big companies in the state are linked to (not directly owned by) the government, and that there is a rich elite owning much of the country's wealth. but taxes are low, and i can't agree with you about the crime syndicates and unethical GICs.



    i would say the main reasons are: opening up to foreign investment, corporate governance, and the principle of self-reliance when it comes to state budgeting. investment in education and thus producing an intelligent workforce is also important to the country's economic development.



    it would seem that Singapore is an economic miracle, but alot of it has to do with governance and history. if you really want to find out more, you gotta hit the library.
    If you would to notice, CPF was set up during 1955 and the government was able to use the money collected to invest in profitable causes without the high interests rates of banks or such.

    This is just my assumption.

    National Lottery Syndicates....are they tax free?

    If I register my family in a Lottery syndicate and share any winnings are they exempt from tax. Is this a way of legally beating the taxman?National Lottery Syndicates....are they tax free?
    all UK lottery winnings are tax free
    sounds like it could work but make sure you have a decent Syndicate agreement drawn up and signed by family members.



    You will more than likely need to do an equal split between members.



    When are you planning to win?



    good luckNational Lottery Syndicates....are they tax free?
    They are not allowed to tax any winnings. So all is tax free!
    no tax is paid on lottery ticket winning because the tax is paid at source, the syndicate has to be properly set up or when the syndicate claims the money and distributes it there will be tax problems.



    Using this to pass money without tax is tricky, if you buy thousands of lottery tickets each week for the syndicate then there will be the suspicion of money laundering, also you would lose more money to the lottery than you would in tax, the odds on winning are stacked against you.National Lottery Syndicates....are they tax free?
    winnings are tax free, but i think if u deposit winnings into your account and then share out that's seen as a gift and that may be taxable. Register as a syndicate manager with Camelot (they will send you the paper work) and have a dedicated syndicate account, that should fix it fine.
    No , surely not because it is earning and all earnings are taxable.
    Winnings are exempt from tax! You can win it all yourself and not have to give any to the taxman!
    all long as u have draw up a correct syndicate statement which is signed by all parties it is tax free
    Syndicate winnings are exempt of capital gains tax, but only if you have an agreement drawn up with everyone's name on it.



    Basics are how money is collected, what happens if you don't pay for a certain time, how winnings will be split (if someone pays more in, etc)



    Then all sign it (maybe next to your own name).



    GOOD LUCK

    I constantly read complaints about immigrants coming in through Mexico (Hispanic immigrants) I don't see complaints about illegals coming in from other countries like Russia for instance.

Don't you find this as being racist?|||I think what most people don't like about the immigrants coming from Mexico is that they are trying to change things to suit them. The rest of the immigrants are smart enough not to protest. They learn English. They blend in so there is no face to put with them.

The cry that the Mexicans are taking jobs away is far from the truth because if the Americans would get out and fill these jobs there wouldn't be any work for the Mexican people.There are so many wrongs taking place now with immigration, that we can only put these problems on the shoulders of our government officials to get resolved fast..

    MEXICO CITY, Mexico - For the past month, America's attention has been focused on the Middle East war. During that time, another 300,000 illegal aliens have crossed America's border with Mexico. But you won't believe how Mexico treats its illegal aliens.





    Illegal aliens from Mexico were allowed to march through America's cities, demanding citizenship – some even waved the Mexican flag. But illegal aliens inside Mexico, mostly from Guatemala and Honduras, are literally on the run.





    Some travel by train and some hide, trying to stay one step ahead of the Mexican Federal Police.





    The Mexican government was outraged by the movement to build a new wall on America's southern border. Mexico's Foreign Secretary Luis Ernesto Derbez went before the cameras to protest.





    Derbez said, "Mexican immigrants are not felons or terrorists. They are human beings who deserve respect and the opportunity to live with dignity."





    But in Mexico, when it comes to the treatment of its illegal aliens it's, ‘Do as I say, not as I do.’





    Mexico has called U.S. immigration policy "harsh," and has called the proposed wall on the U.S. Mexico border "shameful." But some have called the Mexican immigration policy "hypocritical."





    Enter Mexico illegally and you're treated as a felon. If you're caught by the Federal Police, you'll be fortunate if you're only deported immediately. The unfortunate are robbed, abused, raped, or even murdered by corrupt police officers.





    Fernando Aguilar Neri coordinates Red Cross efforts to help illegal aliens in Mexico.





    “When people approach us, they are usually fearful that we work with the government and are afraid of being reported,” said Neri. “…One of the seven principles of the Red Cross is complete neutrality and independence, so we can't cooperate with the Mexican government on the illegal alien issue.”





    Neri says that most illegals moving through Mexico try to avoid the cities.





    The Catholic Church also shields illegal aliens from the Mexican government. CBN found two shelters for illegals in Mexico City, but weren't allowed inside.





    Most of the Central Americans inside are on their way to the United States. They'll be fortunate if they arrive unharmed.





    One immigrant from El Salvador said, "If you are carrying any money, the police take the money and then say, get out of here."





    "We still have 20 days of travel (to reach the United States)," another one said.





    But if you're a Mexican wanting to enter the U.S. illegally, then you can count on the Mexican government's help and support. It even has a special department called Grupos Beta that helps Mexicans cross the U.S. border illegally.





    But in an interview with CBN News, the head of Mexico's Immigration Service, Hipolito Treviño, denied it.





    “Grupos Beta is the Mexican government initiative which does not help people cross the border, but they do assist them when they have problems in the border area,” Trevino said.





    But Grupos Beta gives them a booklet, which includes tips on how to safely cross the U.S border. Trevino denied the allegation that immigrants are also given maps by the government.





    “No maps,” he said. “We give them recommendations about the dangerous animals they'll encounter, how much water they need every day, what to do in case they get lost, what to do in case they get detained by the border patrol, which paths are dangerous because of crime.”





    The reason for the government's help? The cash sent home by Mexicans in the U.S. constitutes the second biggest source of foreign currency in Mexico after the oil industry. Last year that was $20 billion, or 2 percent of Mexico's GDP.





    About 10 percent of Mexico's population is now living in the United States, that’s over 10 million people. And how many illegal aliens in its own country has Mexico legalized in the past five years? Just 15,000.





    The Mexican government may think a new wall on the U.S. border is offensive, but critics are saying far worse things about Mexico's immigration policy.|||Millions and millions and millions of Mexicans have entered America illegally cutting in front of those who were waiting in line legally. They come here and wave their flag while disrespecting our flag. They disrespect our language by demanding we learn theirs. They are a large percentage of our prison population. There is nothing about them to like. As soon as we are rid of each and every one of them then I agree let's go look for illegal Canadians. They might be hard to find because they don't cause any trouble though.





    No it is not racist. Illegal alien is not a race. Mexican is not a race. Hispanic is not a race. There is no basis for saying that ANY action against them is racist because they are not a race.|||How many million 'Illegal immigrants' are coming into America from the north. 2 million, 5 million. I'm sure the number is tiny when compared with the southern border.


    Let me say something about being racist. If I want to be a racist on a certain matter, that does not mean that I am a racist on all issues or any other unrelated matters. The term racist is being used here because people of a different race coming into America are creating a problem. It seems strange to consider it that way when there are already many millions of Hispanic race folks who are American citizens. All race aside, here's what i list as my main opposition to the immigration situation. I do not believe America should serve as the saving grace for citizens of other countries who are experiencing social and economic problems in their country. In the case of Mexico, whenever their weak political system cannot support its people efficiently, the natural reaction is for those disadvantaged to head for America and make a mockery of our current immigration laws. Much the same has happened in other scenarios such as Cuba, Haiti and their droves of immigrants to the U.S. The only thing that keeps the poor folks from the rest of the world from being here in huge numbers is they are to far away. This is called 'Protectionism' by some and I don;t mind the term at all. Don't you want to protect our American sovereignty. Isn't that what the President pledges to do when inaugurated. It's what I pledged when I joined the Air Force many years ago. We have reasonable immigration laws that have worked for many years. I'm asking immigrants and their governments to respect them.


    Finally, you have made some mention of ignoring European crime syndicates and focusing on Mexican cartels. When was the last time you were affected by a European Cartel. What do you suppose we should do about this dreaded problem. I'll tell you what we should do, "Focus on Mexican Cartels".


    I can't resist this- "You are an idiot".|||Which do you get treated first?


    A. A hang nail


    B. A 10 inch wound bleeding profusely|||WE are complaining about ILLEGAL ALIENS...not immigrants...and WE are complaining about ALL of them. YOU (and those like you) are the ones projecting and applying labels. Don't YOU find that as being "racist"?|||Because most of them are pale skinned. I love hispanics, and do not understand the bad wrap.

    Why is everyone getting so frustrated about all the attention being on Brett Favre?

    Who cares? It's a big news story. I know you'd much rather it be about your team, but it can't always be like that. These are the same fans that hate the Patriots because they are good and all the sports syndicates are always talking about them. Who cares if your team is being talked about... it's not as much fun as you'd think... the only opinion that should matter about your team and who you route for is your own.Why is everyone getting so frustrated about all the attention being on Brett Favre?
    people don't hate the patriots because they are good,, they hate them because the film other teams practices illegally,, if it wasn't for the farve situation,, they'd still be focused on bill, lies, and videotape,, haha,, an old rob lowe reference evenWhy is everyone getting so frustrated about all the attention being on Brett Favre?
    I am just annoyed because they have been talking about this on ESPN since the Packers lost in the NFC Championship game. Quite frankly no one cares anymore, new story please.

    What does Obama plan to do to repeal the Patriot Acts? What does Obama have to say about Habeas Corpus?

    why is Obama continuing to slaughter innocent women and children in the middle east? Why is the "news" continuing not covering ANYTHING good or bad in the middle east?



    Why is Obama allowing the corporate crime syndicates to financially rape the american tax slaves?What does Obama plan to do to repeal the Patriot Acts? What does Obama have to say about Habeas Corpus?
    Barry Obama VOTED FOR the Patriot Act.
    Nothing....he voted for the Patriot act while a Senator and did not move to remove it when he had the chance as president.

    He also kept the rendition option while condemning torture.

    He said; 'WE don't torture' but, he didn't say anything about partners or foreign contractors doing it for us.



    Corporate crime syndicates? Like what/who?



    He is using coporations to collect taxes from the middle class with pass throughs so he can say he gave middle America a tax cut but, we will pay through the nose.



    I don't think he's trying to slaughter children but, there is no such thing as innocent women.What does Obama plan to do to repeal the Patriot Acts? What does Obama have to say about Habeas Corpus?
    Well the "news" doesn't cover anything stupid that obama does.



    For example.



    June 6th, 2009. A D-day memorial is held in France. The queen doesn't show up and her son takes her place. The reason she wasn't there, was because the obama administration forgot to INVITE THE QUEEN OF ENGLAND to a memorial ceremony. She SERVED in WWII, and she wasn't invited.



    FOX News, CNN news, all news stations said nothing about the fact that the obama administration didn't invite her.



    If this happened when Bush was in office, the entire country would be riled up demanding he be impeached. Every news station would be talking about this for weeks on end. Not for obama however.



    It's pathetic.
    President Obama is pulling us out of Iraq as fast as safety will allow.

    He might not try to repeal the patriot act for the time being, but rest assured, he is not wiretapping WITHOUT A WARRANT

    [and only congress can repeal it, he can just sign the bill or veto it]What does Obama plan to do to repeal the Patriot Acts? What does Obama have to say about Habeas Corpus?
    Contrary to what leftist torch bearer Seldon Surak says, Comrade Obama has fallen in love with the warrantless wiretap after railing against them on the campaign trail. So don't hold your breath.
    Wow. This is even news to me. I can assure you that I have not killed anyone and I am trying to fix the corporate crime problem
    Power corrupts?
    Great question... I thought he campaigned on doing away with the Patriot Act.

    Was JFK's assassination planned and carried out by the CIA with an assist from crime syndicates?

    You are close.



    Go here:

    http://www.prisonplanet.com/articles/apr鈥?/a>



    Be sure and listen to the confession tape



    OK, now know this: Kennedy issued executive order 11110 to reduce dependence on loans the Federal Reserve bank. He issued Silver certificates to avoid getting any more loans from the Federal reserve. Five months later he was shot to death.



    Larry McDonald (a Georgia congressman) was fiercely anti Federal Reserve. He was shot down (with over 200 other passengers) by the Soviet Union in 1983. Footnote: The Rothschild banking family (England) financed the Communist revolution in 1917 AND they are major shareholders in the Federal Reserve Bank.



    Louis T. McFadden was poisoned to death in 1936. He was making headway in congress to shut down the Federal Reserve Bank.



    Now remember this: George Bush Sr. was once head of the CIA and when Ronald Reagan was shot in 1981 George W Bush's brother was scheduled to have dinner with Hinckley's brother the day after the assassination attempt. With 300,000,000 people in the US what are the chances of the Bush family knowing the Hinckley family on pure chance?



    Research what I've told you and then you'll be ready for this:



    http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=鈥?/a>Was JFK's assassination planned and carried out by the CIA with an assist from crime syndicates?
    Don't forget to mention Fred and Barney. They took part in it too.
    No the crime syndicate had no need of helpWas JFK's assassination planned and carried out by the CIA with an assist from crime syndicates?
    The theories are. 1. Castro 2. The Mafia 3. LBJ. 4. The Soviet Union and 5. The one you mentioned. We will never know the truth because the documents are sealed. I know of no one that believes the magic bullet story. It's like the evidence on the Clinton impeachment has been sealed by Clinton for 50 years. The House Managers did not want to impeach for lying under oath. There were felonies committed by Clinton and Gore. Read David Shippers book. He is the Chicago Liberal Democrat that represented the House Managers and in his book he documents the crimes.
    That sounds like a combination of two different conspiracy theories. The mafia and the CIA are each capable of killing people on their own, they don't need to combine their resources. Haven't you ever watched any TV? In any case, there's not one shred of evidence to support either theory.



    Lee Harvey Oswald, a disgruntled veteran and avid Marxist who spent many years in the USSR killed Kennedy. The Soviets were our enemies.Was JFK's assassination planned and carried out by the CIA with an assist from crime syndicates?
    Here's my problem with the conspiracy theory: 45 years later there is not one shred of indisputable evidence to support it.



    In my opinion, the circumstantial evidence points to a mob hit. Look into the connection between Santo Traficante (Tampa mob boss), Carlos Marcello (New Orleans mob boss) and Jimmy Hoffa (Teamsters boss). Their is a credible cloud of suspicion among these three characters and the Kennedy hits which is more substantial than any of the other gallery of suspects (such as the CIA).
    You may be suggesting that an abundance of evidence contributed to the hasty deposition of the Warren report.Similar abundance of evidence incidence also appears in other false flag operation statistic assembles.Hindrix,Joplin,Morrison all died at age 27 of opiate poisoning.By what reasoning is it that our leaders are negative personages?
    I am not sure who did it, but JFK did have enemies including LBJ who was serving as Vice President.



    I have a question for you. There was evidence that there were four bullets not three, but but because of critism of the validity it has been rejected.



    "The Dictabelt evidence relating to the assassination of John F. Kennedy comes from a Dictabelt recording from a radio microphone stuck in the open position on a police officer's motorcycle when John F. Kennedy, 35th (1961鈥?963) President of the United States was assassinated in Dallas, Texas on November 22, 1963. "



    "In December 1978, the House Select Committee on Assassinations had prepared a draft of its final report which concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald had acted alone as the assassin. However, after hearing testimony regarding the Dictabelt recording, they quickly changed their findings and concluded a second gunman had fired a fourth shot at Kennedy (it was claimed that a fourth shot could be heard on the Dictabelt). G. Robert Blakey, chief counsel of the HSCA, later said, "If the acoustics come out that we made a mistake somewhere, I think that would end it." Despite serious criticism of the scientific evidence and the HSCA's conclusions, speculation regarding the Dictabelt and the possibility of a second gunman has persisted".



    After reading the whole article I can see why speculation on this has continued. Are you familiar with this evidence?



    Edited to add: There may be new questions about evidence once the following happens.



    "The unpublished supporting documents for the Warren Commission Report are due to be released by 2017."

    Sometimes I wonder if the United States is actually under the direction of our President, or a board of Syndicates made up of these little Jewish guys. Not that I'm complaining, but it seems all the jewish people I have ever met in my life hold very prominent positions such as teachers, many lawyers, judges etc. Now it may be that these fine people have taken such a beaten in life that they carry an incredible work ethic that puts all other nationalities to shame. At any rate my theory cant be true because Jewish people would never make the idiot mistakes this president has made.How many people believe our country is actually run by the President Commander in Chief or?

    Need to know for a report. If clarification is needed: How many illegal weapons are currently being used in Central and South America? When I say I illegal, I am referring to if the weapons in mind were obtained through sources such as organized crime syndicates that deal arms to insurgents and other rebels. NEED SOURCES! Thanks!How many smuggled weapons are in Central and South America Currently?

    What/who keeps the government from legalizing marijuana and other drugs like that?

    The drugs can be taxed, and crime rates will go down since crime syndicates will go out of business, and Uncle Sam will make a revenue from this idea. So are the republicans or liberals keeping this idea dead, or someone else?What/who keeps the government from legalizing marijuana and other drugs like that?
    Who invented this issue anyway...FDR administration in 1937...
    A complex question for a complex issue. It is a bit naive to believe that crime will suddenly ebb if marijuana is legalized. While it is true that many marijuana type offenses will ostensibly cease to exist with legalization, there would still be ancillary crimes that would occur.



    It would be unfair to say that the objection to legalization is either a liberal or conservative position. There are people on both sides of the political aisle in favor and against legalization.



    Probably the biggest reason marijuana is not legalized, is simply that no one really knows how to do it effectively. It has become an animal unto itself, consuming millions of dollars in enforcement, prosecution diversion and incarceration. It is in essence a self perpetuating industry, generating far more cash flow as an illicit drug then it would ever produce as a legalized substance. Even a program as simple and innocuous as medical marijuana is a bureaucratic screw up.



    Having spent a career in law enforcement, beginning in the 70's and ending in the late 90's, I watched possession of less than an ounce go from a felony to a traffic ticket. I for one do believe in legalization of marijuana, as do many of my former peers. But as I said, until some senator or congressman is willing to tackle this complex issue, it will remain the "prohibition" nightmare of the late 20th and early 21st century.What/who keeps the government from legalizing marijuana and other drugs like that?
    Because the War on Drugs is not really about drugs. It's all about power, control, and keeping imperialist/neo-colonialist interests in Latin America alive.



    Research "Plan Colombia".



    Colombia has always been and still is the coveted cornerstone of the US's geopolitical control over the entire Latin American region, and at whatever the cost, the US is determined to make Colombia the jewel in its imperial crown.

    National OCD

    As a nation once we get obsessed with the correctness of a bad idea we never let go of it regardless of all the evidence that clearly shows that it's a bad idea.

    These are the results of our 40 year old War on Drugs

    Whole countries are being corrupted

    Cops are getting killed

    The Constitution is being trashed

    Whole neighborhoods are being ruined

    Gangs are on the rise

    Untold hundreds of millions of dollars are being spent treating the uninsured gunshot victims of drug trade violence.

    We have more people in jail than any country on Earth

    And through it all three things have never changed

    1) Some foolish people think that it's worth it

    2) If you have the cash you can still get all the drugs that you want

    3) Alcohol still kills more people than drugs doWhat/who keeps the government from legalizing marijuana and other drugs like that?
    the people. the majority of the people in america still are very neive about marijuana and do not have the straight fatcs. because the majority beleives the herb should be criminalized it is and most the people who want it to be illegal are the ones with money
    The need to have issues to use to get votes, rather than do what is effective policy for the good of the people.



    Illegal drugs would not be nearly as popular if spreading them around wasn't profitable.



    Yes, I am saying that if drugs were legal there would have been less drug distribution.
    I would be fine with Medical marijuana, but only in Hospitals or prescription. Otherwise people would be stupid with it.
    The corporations that make paper, and the cigar companies. If this crop was legalized, they'd lose a lot of profit.
    Sensible people..
    There is standing law that renders your point of view illegal.



    There are occasionally propositions on the state ballots that bit by bit etch away at it, such as giving rights for "Medical Marijuana".



    And of course there are government organizations such as DEA and BATF that are oriented toward drug enforcement.



    So maybe you have a new plan to help solve the national debt funding issue by which we transfer the great expense of economic recovery to future taxpayers to pay back... and if we could tax the dope smokers maybe we could repay those trillion dollar debts back a little sooner eh?



    Hey well just keep writing to your congressman and senator and keep voting for people that inhale... that is the point, right?

    How do you suppose the world will rid of Mexican drug cartels?

    Will the US do something about it, by diverting their time and resources away from the lost cause in the middle east and onto the drug cartels in Mexico, or are we bound to see constant political strife in Mexico as a result of these crime syndicates?How do you suppose the world will rid of Mexican drug cartels?
    The PEOPLE of the USA have the power to put them out of business tomorrow. All they have to do is stop buying illegal drugs. Simple. Which is more important to them - getting high, or preventing the deaths of thousands and thousands of innocent people???How do you suppose the world will rid of Mexican drug cartels?
    I don't think Mexico has much control over what the drug industry does. The US can't do much about what goes on in Mexico. We arrested one drug king pin in the last few years, and the only result was a war to take over his territory. Deaths have exceeded 20,000 so far and it doesn't look like it's going to let up soon. I don't know how much good it would do, but decriminalizing drugs would take a lot of the profit away, and make drug selling in the US less profitable. We lost the war on drugs. Time to move on! Use the enforcement money for education, health care and addiction treatment.How do you suppose the world will rid of Mexican drug cartels?
    Are you serious? Mexico is #2 most dangerous place in the world, I'm sure people are just flocking to Mexico to tell the drug lords "Um, can you please stop killing people and selling drugs?" You're funny. How about you go confront them first, and if you come back alive without any limbs missing then I'll consider it.

  • What new pc games should I get?

    I'm getting Mass Effect 3 for sure, but I'm also thinking about getting another, so which should I get from these games: The Darkness II, Alan Wake, Wargame: European Escalation, Syndicate, or Anno 2070?



    Ultimately the decision is up to me, but I can't make up my mind, all of the games above are really fun and cool and I've played most at various friends houses etc...



    So......which one of the above should I get?What new pc games should I get?
    I hear that Syndicate is pretty average which is a shame coz i loved the original.



    out of all of them i would get Anno 2070 but thats just me i like those type of games ;PWhat new pc games should I get?
    The Darkness II is an interesting game, but quickly turns very boring, as it doesn't change too much throughout the game.



    Alan Wake is my second favorite game of ALL TIMES. It is an amazing game, with an awesome storyline, that I can be really difficult to get your head around. A one-of-a-kind game that I've never seen anything like.



    Wargame: European Escalation I haven't played unfortunately.



    Syndicate is an interesting game with the mind-control options, but is in average a normal fps. Graphics are at sometimes very good, but, as said, a normal fps with some small extra fun goodies.



    Anno 2070 I haven't got to play yet either (I have bought it, but haven't gotten to it in my pile of games just yet though)







    But as far as my advice, I would recommend you to buy Alan Wake. It is an insane game, that I have spent sooo many days playing (I'm and XBOX gamer myself, and have all the achievements in this game.)

    It will absolutely be worth your money, and you won't regret it.

    How does a lottery syndicate work? Why does it "increase" the chance of winning?

    I know a group of people come together and put forward their contributions thereby "increase their chances" of winning, but how does the maths work?



    I mean, if 1000 people is a member of a syndicate how is this more of an "advantage" (as claimed by syndicates) compared to if each one of them goes and buy a ticket for themselves?



    Thanks.How does a lottery syndicate work? Why does it "increase" the chance of winning?
    Expected value is the same.



    But if you've got a piece of 1000 tickets, then you've got 1000 different chances to win. If you win, you'll only win 1/1000 of the prize, instead of the whole thing, but if the prize is big enough, then even 1/1000 of the pool might be worth it to you.



    How does a lottery syndicate work? Why does it "increase" the chance of winning?
    The advantage they speak of is just that which you described in the 1st sentence. There's no other benefit - just the ability to get in with a pool of players.
