Put yourself in the cops shoes. You just pulled over one of the richest and most powerful people in Los Angeles who could possibly make your life a living hell. What would you do? Gibson made over $200 million last year and I'm not taking into account that his Passion of the Christ made over $600 million worldwide. That aint chump change, and how much do you think a cop makes. I can see why wealthy and powerful people get away with crap like this. I know it's not fair, but what can you do.

Most alcoholics have serious demons to deal with. You're not an alcoholic that fell of the wagon. He was drunk and people say stupid shit when they are drunk. In vino veritas comes to mind, but the guy is an alcoholic dealing with serious issues. You and I drink to have fun and can control it, sometimes. He couldn't. I'm not making excuses for him, but cut the guy some slack. He has a horrible disease and a long road of recovery ahead of him.

It might have been, but this one wasn't.

This is what makes me a bit suspicious. Those high levels would've been consistent all throughout the race and his history. If they spiked, then what caused the spike. I'm not saying he is guilty, but if he is, he should just confess or just submit to a full blown blood test to prove his innocence.

Did a quick Google search and it's the ratio of testosterone and epitestosterone, or T/E. Usually an individuals T/E ratio would constant and any range out of that would be suspect. For example you said groups of men working together could show higher levels. That is true, but the levels would be constant. Let's say you show a 2:1 ratio for the past 14 days and on day 15 it jumps to 4:1 or greater, that would be suspicious. Secondly the could also test for esters of testosterone in blood plasma and if found then you're doping. I'm waiting for what sample B shows before passing any judgment.

If both sides truly wanted peace they would find a way. I'm so freaking sick of this, one side of me just wants to arm the Palestinians with the same weapons the Israelis have and let them go at it. Maybe then both sides will realize that they might be able to live in peace.

China doesnt need to go to war with us, all the have to do is mention the fact that they will unload the T-bills they have. Why start a war when you can cripple our economy. As to this article the guy is nuts. Not only would we royally piss of Russian and China, remember the latter holds hundreds of billions of dollars in T-bills. He doens't take into account the impact it would have on the oil markets world wide.

That's a question bush and his admin should've asked themselves before starting this war. I love this country to death, but sometimes we are so f-ing ignorant. We want to spread democracy to the mid east and in all honesty I could care less. If they want it they have to fight for it. We cannot shove it down their throats and expect them to love us in return. Maybe Iraq needed an SOB like SH to keep Shiites and Sunnis from killing themselves. Now to add to this cluster f&^k of a genius idea to start a war we have Iran. It sure would be nice to have SH in power so we could throw him at that problem.

When I look at bush and this admin the following Einstein quote seems to fit: "Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe."

[replyEVERY SINGLE TANDEM is a Potential new jumper and should be treated as such. This is an excellent point, one thing I've noticed is that we are looking at jumper attraction on a mirco level, i.e., DZ level. This is a problem that also needs to be addressed on a larger scale. Does the USPA have any data on tandems: average age, gender, race, monthly income, education, and are there any major differences per region. If this is where we are going to get new jumpers we should at least know some basics. For some major DZs this might be a pain, but a simple standardized survey could offer some insight for us. Or for example what are the demographics of recently licensed jumpers. How many of those keep renewing memberships. I know jumping is not for everyone, but our target market has to be out there, we just need ways to reach them.

GW is beyond ridiculous. On Sept 12, 2001 he was handed the World. For the first time in human history most of the World was united behind one person and what did he do. He pissed it all away. Five years later OBL is still at large, AQ has not been defeated, Iraq is a freaking mess, the war is going to cost us close to half a trillion dollars or more, over 2500 of our troops are dead, 130K Iraqis are displaced, and Afghanistan is off our radar screen. The guy is a poster child for the village idiot.

You could apply that 'users' permit to a dozen other activities. Let's say you like to drink, well if you have more than 7 drinks in a week then you might need to get another permit for excessive drinking. How about a BMI cut-off. If you're BMI is over 25 then you are considered overweight and more prone to getting sick so let's raise your health insurance premium. IMO this law is BS. If you want to make the streets safer ban people from talking on the cell phones while driving or introduce laws that require you to use a hands-free head set. Next time you are driving just look to see how many people are talking while driving, it's pretty damn scary.

ROFLMAO!!! Or you might run across these natives.

How do you say that in Arabic? http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060619/ap_on_re_mi_ea/iraq_soldiers_charged It's war, both side do horrible things. You guys had some interesting tactics too back in the 1970s in Ireland.

Let's leave politics aside. For the first time in human history we have the power to significantly alter our environment. We can wipe out hundreds and even thousands of acres of rainforest in a matter of days or weeks. Think about how many tons of exhaust gases cars in a major metropolitan city like LA, NYC, Chicago can pump out into the environment in a single day. Now think about that on a global scale. Look at how mining has evolved over the last century. Taken all these things and more into account, don't you think it's reasonable to sit back and see what possible effects this might have on a global scale. Gore's movie might be a little over the top, but don't just say it's BS and denounce him as a left wing, tree hugging, owl loving, greenie. Let's look at the facts and try to understand what is going on with our environment.

I agree with you 100%, we can all be dumbasses. BUT when your friends are telling you not to ride, when you have a multi-million dollar contract the states not to engage in any activities that might cause severe bodily harm (except for playing football) and when you ride one of the most powerful motorcycles on the planet w/o a helmet. It's really is sad what happened to him, but he is a dumbass.

In Africa ignorance and local traditions play a huge factor in the transmission of HIV.

I pretty much stick to these and build around them: squats dead lift bench press Also throw in some exercises for your abs/core and some cardio. Best bet is to hire a trainer for a few sessions so he can build a routine for you and then every 3-4 months switch it up. Pay attention to your diet too, you can work your butt off but w/o proper nutrition you're not going to see the results.

A local bar had a special, two drinks for $6.66, sortof an 'end of the world' happy hour. It was tons of fun, paying for it today though.

What are you talking about? Where are you getting your facts from? Casual sex has always and WILL always be around. The only reason we have hard core statistics on casual sex and infidelity is because we recently started keeping track of it. Wasnt it Kinsey who first did a study on human sexuality. Till then we didnt know jack. To say we have thrown 4000 years of traditions away is BS. What traditions are you talking about

Elections coming up and Bush mentions gay marriage. The guy is a pathetic excuse for a leader and human being. Let's get people to vote by playing on their religious fears and going after a minority group that poses no threat to anyone. Mid east is going to hell, Iraq is on the verge of a civil war and all this idiot can think of is gay marriage and amending the constitution.

Because speaking out about it would stopped it dead in it's tracks. 20 years later still no cure and I bet it's because of Reagan.[/reply Read the book And the Band Played On. It chronicles the first 5 years of the AIDS epidemic. The Reagan admin did jack in the begining. I'm not saying they could've stopped it, but at least they could've done something rather than sit on their asses and wait till 1987 to mention the word AIDS. Six years after the first reoperted case. And what did he offer, widespread routine testing.

Yes, it's a smart strategy for them. If they cant take us on militarily then go for the jugular, our currency. Japan imports 80% of it's oil from the mid east, and they hold a shit load of dollars too. Imagine them dumping of few of those dollars, or on a bigger scale imagine China doing that.

1.4M pounds is 700,000 tons, 700kT. Roughly the size of a standard nuke in some packaging. . WRONG 1.4x10^6/(2000lb/ton) = 700T = 0.7kT. I was wrong in my calculation. Should've thought "slower". Careful with those college Physics Profs, they can spot a mistake in calculations even before you starting writing it down.

nuts Don't feed the troll. The people who assaulted this man got what they deserved. It's still hard to believe he fended them off with a freaking pocket knife. Wonder what he could've done with a Crocodile Dundee one.
