But... but... IT WAS A FACT FINDING REPORT. I'm not sure else how to present one, other than as facts.

Just waiting for the Neo-Druid Dead Puppy Cult School to apply....

It wouldn't surprise me if this turned out to be self-perpetrated. The choice side just isn't as bat-shit as the life side. While it could be real, I'd just be less surprised if it was faked, is all. It seems like the more likely scenario.

Lump hardwood charcoal. Nothing wrong with gas, I used it and loved it for years, but this is just what I have now.

For Romney's backers, it is not going to make any difference. All that matters to them is that he's not Obama. Everything else is ignorable/forgivable.

I hate to say this, but not giving money to poor black women will probably get you re-elected in North Carolina.

@ashleypants, KateFace, LaComtesse, utensil42, yes. More nuanced than what I wrote. @kikai_saigono, I was thinking that one type attracts the other, not that they actively decide.

Or it could be that women with low self esteem choose men who are porn addicts. I really don't think there is enough usable data from this survey to make any cause/effect conclusion.

Erin, my heart goes out to you as an alumna. My daughter is in between her junior and senior year at ND, and is currently in Peru, as part of the ISSLP, teaching ESL to the indigenous Andeans. When I got Fr Jenkins' email this morning, I thought the same things that you outlined in your essay; that he was being…

Thank you. I teared up watching that.

No one wants to live forever, but we all want at least one more day.

I don't think she'd play well in the NBA. Heck, most 6'8" MEN don't make it in the NBA. 6'8" Adam Morrison, the 2006 College Player of the Year, didn't make it in the NBA. She's great, and she's dominant. And she's not NBA.

Doggone, what a great game by Baylor. ND needed to bring their A game just to stay even, and they didn't have the touch last night. This ND fan says hats off to one of the most dominant teams ever in college sports, the Baylor Women's Basketball team of 2011-12!

Oh; I thought it was Joran van der Sloot. Never mind.

Well, they could always just let the drink be whatever color it is, without the dyes. That is a choice, too.

I don't mind them believing differently on the issues per se. I mind that my stance is that we can all choose our own way of life, and theirs is that they can choose everyone's way of life.

The same justifications are used every time one group wants to keep another subjugated, either overtly or subtly: "But they are so much happier as slaves, we can take care of their every need."

I agree 100%. The Thunderbolt got ragged on in this article; it's the first Android phone I've really loved. It's not the fastest, but it's fast enough. It's not the brightest, highest res screen, but it's bright and sharp enough. Battery life with Juice Defender is pretty good, I can go a couple days without charging…

I see all the Gawker sites as sections of the same newspaper. Where a story falls depends on its focus. Gawker tends to get general news.

As soon as I saw "strong female character" I thought of Ree Dolly in Winter's Bone. I'd say that the secondary female characters in that film were also written as strong women.
