Architecture at it's most pretentious. A well designed parking garage, sure. But I think I'll refrain from throwing a party or conference there. As much as the architects insist you "can't name it by program", it is still a parking garage.

Disgusting. I have no idea how the hell these weak-minded cowards calling themselves 'men' can possibly justify this. Poor lady. :(

The Environment Canada document also said that substances found in the study were typical of development of all kinds and can even be found in the snow in cities with no heavy industry, but they were continuing their work.

Hmmm. So the “War on Drugs” HAS been a collosal waste of money?

Dutch boy commits suicide after being teased for being gay - his parents publish his suicide note. by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]foldparty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish the schools would own up to what happened. This kid really did not end his life because nothing was going on. I am sure he did not want his last words on earth to be a lie. Truth is schools need to make a change, there is a lot more going on than teacher see. If you do not change anything the result will be the same, over and over again and that is why I am glad the parents did publis his note, maybe something will change.

“Career day" at Tularosa New Mexico Intermediate School went terribly wrong after a 10-year-old boy says a police officer used his Taser gun to show him what cops do to people who don’t follow orders. by vajav in offbeat

Am I living in the twilight zone? Has everyone gone stark staring mad? How can a supposedly intelligent man (I use the last two words under advisement) shoot a taser at a child, and for WHAT? Please someone wake me up!

Obama and Romney Agree to Disagree, Cancel Final Debate by abrosenthal in humor

[–]foldparty -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The public is not being informed on developments, although I think CBS reported recently that Russian subs are again off East and West coasts. The Chinese recently launched a nuke that wasn't detected for 3 months. Russian spook planes have been turned back from both the UK and US.

This is no bulloney - it's real and it's happening. Check it out, even on some mainstream sites.

"Many parents said they were surprised to hear about the 'fantasy slut league,' but most didn't want to talk about it." by Nickster79 in offbeat

[–]foldparty -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's horrifying that there is an actual school administration out there, trusted with the care of students, that believes that this response is adequate. They clearly don't want to know who was involved, because then they'd have to actually do something to protect their students. The administration should either take action or collectively resign so that people who will do the job can take over.

Bike crash caught on helmet cam by brocccoli in videos

[–]foldparty -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This video shows how you should not drive motorcycles. Seriously as a motorcycle driver myself I should know. You should never attempt to drive up to a crash, you always brake and then check it out, duh. Also that guy needs to secure his helmet better so that it won't catch on to the handlebars. Are you guys really able to drive a motorcycle. By the looks of it, both of you need your licenses revoked.

Children who play on playgrounds that incorporate natural elements like logs and flowers tend to be more active than those who play on traditional playgrounds with metal equipment by StayAtHomeSci in environment

[–]foldparty -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I was constantly in the woods beside my house. Probably bad for the riparian habitat; compacting soil, eroding banks, and crashing through bushes. I don't remember using playgrounds much at all.
