1. It didn't have Lo Pan in it. That's right. I'm talking about the perpetuator of ass kicking himself, Lo Pan from Big Trouble in Little China: one of the best movies ever made. Lo Pan, for those of you who are adept at depriving yourselves of things that rule, is an evil war lord cursed to roam the world in spirit form. Five Things that Sucked about Lord of the Rings |

Man has sex with horse while high on Ecstasy. Gets videotaped and will spend 18 months in prison, and has to register as a sex offender. USA! USA ! --- snippet --- GULFPORT - A Gulfport man will spend the next 18 months in prison for having sexual intercourse with a horse. Carl Patrick Brown, 30, pleaded guilty Tuesday in Harrison County Circuit Court to a charge of having intercourse with a horse. Prosecutors said the owner of the mare caught Brown in May 2001 on videotape. The tape would have been used at trial. Brown must register as a sex offender when he is released from prison because the offense is considered a sex crime in Mississippi. Brown, who said he had used the drug ecstasy when he committed the crime, will be on probation for five years after his release. Man Pleads Guilty To Sex With Horse |

By What Authority, the name of our publication, is English for quo warranto. Quo warranto is the sovereign's command to halt continuing exercise of illegitimate privileges and authority. Evolved over the last millennium by people organizing to perfect a fair and just common law tradition, the spirit of By What Authority animates people's movements today. We the people and our federal and state officials have long been giving giant business corporations illegitimate authority. As a result, a minority directing giant corporations privileged by illegitimate authority and backed by police, courts and the military, define the public good, deny people our human and constitutional rights, dictate to our communities, and govern the Earth. By What Authority is an unabashed assertion of the right of the sovereign people to govern themselves. By What Authority? |

The police log from beautiful Arcata, CA, in the heart of Humboldt County. Unbelievably funny. -- snippets -- Sunday, July 7 9:33 p.m. At the trailer park As grown-ups shared fisticuffs A baby cried. 10:21 p.m. A husband-wife argument culminated with him barefoot at a clammy shopping center payphone, pleading with police to "take me away." An officer drove him back to the trailer and stood by while he picked up his stuff. 12:29 p.m. A man was assaulted from behind in what was described as an unprovoked attack at Ninth and H streets. A struggle ensued, falling far short of cinematic depictions of manly conflict, which generally involve heroic posturing, elegant choreography, well-aimed blows and a clear victor and vanquished. In reality, there was a lot of inconclusive grappling, grasping at clothing with heads down, garbled curses and swift encirclement by blue uniforms. A suspect was jailed, no one got the girl and civilization continues to be doomed by powerful evildoers. 3:19 p.m. If what police say is true, a young man attempted to take something from an I street cooperative supermarket that didnt even belong to him. It gets worse. Evidently the lad has taken a very wrong turn and begun experimenting with marijuana. Right here. In our town. Arcata Police Log |

... What are the One Minute Speeches? Well, Representative Traficant would occasionally stand up and deliver these rants on the floor of the House. Sometimes the rants were exhortations in general to strengthen America's steel industry. Others, like the one about soccer violence, were more weblog-like rants with no clear political motivation -- just observations, apropos nothing. ... Considering that Traficant was recently kicked out of congress for being a _crooked_ nutjob, you should see what sort of people we let into our government.. :) (Former) Senator Traficant One-Minute Speech Archive |
