on Guilty but Insane Due to PTSD
I really am surprised to know that the case of the previous Oregon guard member had set up an example in the place. I do not know as to how the case extended to this much but what I think is that there is no insurance that he would not do the same if he is left free. Hence it is important that he is punished by the government for what he had done ad that too at the highest proposal! scrapbooking paper

on Northwest Passages: Cherie Priest
Cherie Priest’s “Boneshaker” truly seems to be for those who can stomach “flesh eating zombies” and the like!! I for one am not into “steampunk” novels but I am sure for those who enjoy reading such, they’ll find it quite interesting! I am too comfortable watching movies in my lcd hdtv. With so much of terror and violence around us everyday, I’d rather relax with a simple thriller – suspense or anything else, to just while away the time!!

on Water: From the Bottle or the Tap?
Bottled water should be banned – how did we survive before the bottled water was introduced?? I am sure life will be the same if not safer without bottled water! Who knows how the water is bottled and whether they are following the rules and regulations – now, the officers who go to inspect such places can be “bought”! We can always get clean water through our refrigerator water filters then Why take the risk when we have pure water easily available at our home???

on An Hour With Al Gore
Al Gore, like most politicians, tries to highlight whatever he does and get maximum attention from that!! There are very few politicians in the modern scenario who are genuinely concerned about their country and its peoples’ well being! Now, all we do is have a debate on some controversial issue created by politicians like Al Gore and waste our precious time little realizing that they will get away with whatever they do!! whenever i watch these guys on my lcd hdtv i get so irritated that switch it off!

on Oregon's Death Row
Once the jury has reached a verdict there should we a time-frame when the execution has to be carried out. If there is an appeal they should prioritize such cases and come to a decision at the earliest instead of it being dragged on for years which is additional expense on the exchequer! In fact once the jury has reached a verdict after months and years of deliberation, why should there be a appeal in the first place??? life station
