When will we stop accepting senseless losses?
2009-03-08 22:46:00 Excerpts from WFSB in Connecticut –A man driving drunk and going the wrong way with his lights off early Saturday crashed head-on into a van, killing a college student who was headed to Africa on a spring break medical aid mission, police said.The wrong-way driver, Daniel Musser, slammed into the van around 3:45 a.m. while it was headed south on Interstate 395 in Montville, about 45 miles southeast of Hartford, police said.The vehicle was traveling south in the northbound lanes of Interstate 395 in Montville when it hit the students' van, causing the van to flip.

Senseless and Complacent - Domestic Violence Laws
2008-12-19 14:36:00 Denise and Louisa at ChristmasBarbara's Tchatzkahs called my attention to yet another example of a complacent attitude towards victims of attack, and then another senseless attack on another family member. Domestic Violence laws are to protect, and they seem to do the opposite at times. Most of the time domestic violence is a misdemeanor, but when a family member was attacked instead of the partner of domestic violence perp? Its attempted murder - which isn't a misdemeanor. Does that make any sense at all? The xgirlfriend was attacked with a hammer, and was classfied as a misdemeanor. The sister was shot in the face - that wasn't ... it was attempted murder. I don't know about you but if someone came towards me and hurt me with a hammer - I would assume it was kill! WOULDN'T YOU?BARBARA'S TCHATZKAHS had a post today about a story of a family that has been repeatedly victimize by an abuser. Its strange to me at times HOW people can just take this so lightly! Its ALL ov...

Was the Apple Sell-Off Savvy or Senseless?
2008-01-24 13:00:00 Usually, on days when Apple reports earnings, giddy investors have a chuckle about the company's famously conservative forecasts and proceed to load up on the stock -- confident that Apple's closely guarded pipeline of new products will keep sales and profits on the rise. However, investors found little to laugh about in Apple's latest forecast.

2008-01-22 02:45:00 Why? Deaths of Key Deer probedTHE ASSOCIATED PRESSKEY WEST - Wildlife officials are investigating the killings of several endangered Key deer, the tiny deer that live exclusively in the Florida Keys.In one incident last month, a Big Pine Key resident found three severed Key deer heads on federal property. In a second incident, a deer was found alive but with a 3-foot-long spear in its neck. The deer had to be euthanized last week. Investigators do not think the incidents are related. A count conducted in 2001 found approximately 700 of the deer. Killing Key deer is a crime under the Endangered Species Act and punishable by fines or jail time or both. The Key Deer are precious, harmless and endangered. They are the smallest of the deer species in North America. The adult males stand about 30 inches high while the females are about 26 high at the shoulders. They are harmless and enjoy wandering about feeding on native plants and grasses mostly at dawn and dusk.The maiming and ...

Senseless killing of Tatiana, the Siberian tiger...
2007-12-27 01:58:00 I can't wrap my mind around this story about the killing of Tatiana the Siberian Tiger at the San Francisco zoo.Tatiana killed a teenage boy and attacked two other individuals, and police chased it and yelled "stop!" before it turned to attack them.By the way, WHo yells STOP! to a Siberian tiger?Why couldn't they shoot the tiger with a tranquilizer gun? Was it necessary to kill her?Police are investigating the idea that visitors might have been taunting the tiger and possibly helped it get out by putting a board in the moat.Animals don't have the ability to rationalize as people do. The idea of killing an animal which kills a person doesn't make sense to me. I've read that it's a myth that once a wild animal gets a taste for human flesh, it never goes back. Animals attack for a reason---for food, to protect themselves, their young, their territory. When an animal feels threatened it will attack. Humans do the same thing but the difference is we can rationalize danger, they can...
Not Sure What to Think? Refer to a Senseless Axiom
2007-12-05 18:40:00 The Detroit News' Rob Parker on the Cabrera-Willis trade:It was a no-brainer. Whenever you have a chance to trade potential for production, you do it. Really? Even if it means trading a top prospect who's a year away from reaching the Majors for a mediocre veteran who would probably provide only a marginal short-term benefit? Obviously, that's not what happened in this case, as Cabrera, at least, is a star, but that sort of deal does happen way more often than it should. Judging this deal on its own merits is far more helpful than resorting to an unsubstantiated generalization. Don't believe me? Check out this or this.Does anyone draw conclusions from Rob Parker columns when there are so many better sources of information available?

Commit a Random, Senseless Act of Violence!
2007-10-26 23:26:00 Actually, that might be frowned upon, but it is the subject of the new poll. We all know celebrities and politicians can be annoying, so here's your chance to exact some revenge (in your mind, at least). Whatever you do, don't take this too seriously, because a) it's supposed to be fun and b) I don't want any of you going to jail (though the headlines might be fun).For the record (and since it's deleted now), the results of the Jean Claude Van Damme movie poll were as follows:* Bloodsport (7 votes)* Cyborg (5)* Timecop (3)* Double Impact (2)* Lionheart (2)* Death Warrant (1)* Hard Target (1)Total Votes - 21I'm shocked that Kickboxer received no votes.

Senseless tragedy
2007-06-18 19:18:00  It is just me or is there something wrong with letting a 1500hp drag car loose on a road with crowds of people no more than four feet away? Why would the organisers allow such a thing. I feel for the seven people that lost their lives and I have a contact that has spoken to the driver Troy Critchley and he was quoted as saying “I feel numb, I don’t know where I’ll go from here”. What a senseless loss of life and perhaps a senseless end to a career spanning twenty years. Check it out… Craig     Â

Got senseless message
2007-05-16 12:40:00 Normally developers put “test†message boxes to check their application behaviors. Most of the time they send their application to testing department without removing those messages (in my company). One of our testing lady has reported a bug for this kind of test message. She has written “Senseless message appeared while pressing this……†Any idiot who has development experience at lest from academic project, knows this is a message put to test the application. As testers we can report this kind of bug in more polite way rather than hearting developers. I always believe QA/testers need to be technical user. Then they can easily understand the technical and non-technical things easily. She could have report this bug more politely in such a way “Application testing message appeared while pressing this…..and this message need to be removed†Bollywood

Shake yourself senseless
2007-04-25 12:11:00 To expand on your perception is to realize how limited your basic senses are; eyes, ears, touch, smell, taste. These senses add depth to your perceived world. What we see is interpreted by our minds and shapes reality according to our beliefs. You may have heard people see what they wish to see or, justify what they choose.Yet, what about things that are invisible? In this existence, people will experience connectedness, mystery, and immeasurable points of view that defy description. If we pay attention to both the perceived and invisible worlds, our beliefs will create a more complete picture. We will grasp we're a part of everything. This can help you see beyond your ego, that may periodically control you. On top of that, do you realize your values change along with your perception? They both change as your desires evolve, and the life you envision emerges. If you desire or covet things that appear to belong to other people, and you focus enough energy and will in this direc...

The brand called Twenty8Twelve, Sienna’s birthday (how original ladies), will debut in Fall 2007. Sienna preciously stated “There's such a lack of individuality now - what we're trying to say is, do it for yourself! I wear something, it's in Heat magazine, then everywhere the next week! I'm like, wait - I bought that in a market in Paris!”It seems Sienna has no idea how the fashion industry works, despite trying to enter the arena herself. To put it in context, Sienna criticising for not having a sense of individuality by suggesting they rectify this by purchasing her mass produced clothing range. She’s disgruntled that people copy her look, yet she is using this as the selling point of her and her siblings range. Mmm, right then.

Senseless Killings in a Sick Society
2006-12-02 15:04:08 Bob Herbert, on the continuing saga of innocents gunned down by trigger-happy police, is right to insist that "the mayor and Police Commissioner Ray Kelly have an obligation to develop effective new strategies for reining in reckless police behavior" and "that police officers, including those who are black, recognize the essential humanity of all the people they are supposed to be protecting and serving."Given the excessively violent society we currently live in, given the 24/7 violence blaring from TV's into our family rooms, given the glorification of violent criminals starring nearly every night on "investigative news" shows, given the ever present images of war - both real and concocted for box-office extravaganzas, given our insatiable appetite for ever more realistic, bloody, video games; given all of this -- have we perhaps weakened our ability to distinguish reality from fantasy, right from wrong, the good guy from the bad, justified killing from unjustified?

Senseless war. Temporary ceasefire.
2006-10-13 20:03:03 While it is true that the US generally restrained Israel from total victory, in Lebanon-2006 the restraint came in handy for Israel. Unlike in the previous wars, Israel could not win. The entrenched Hezbollah is nothing like the PLO which the Lebanese hated. Israel?s only way for the total victory was to heavily attack Iran and Syria, preferably with nuclear weapons. Destroying the support base is the only way to fight a guerilla army. Israel cannot root out Hezbollah or leave it without light arms; it suffices to cut the Iranian and Syrian shipments of missiles. Hardly any Israeli expert believed we could clean out the Hezbollah, let alone rapidly. Israeli government hysterically killed defenseless Lebanese civilians. Olmert is not a person of bravery and vision, and did not retaliate against Iran and Syria. Israel could not win, and the US pressure for cease-fire was a welcome face-saving measure. Israeli people tolerate losses, just as Americans tolerated them in WWII but not in...
