If the irresponsible policies of the Obama Administration results in the collapse of the U.S. Dollar, the entire world will be plunged into economic disorder and the American people in particular will suffer.

Over a thousand candidates shortlisted for life on Mars

(Reuters) - A mission to put humans on Mars that drew 200,000 applicants has selected more than a thousand candidates who will now be tested to come up with a final list of 24 would-be Mars-dwellers.

Mars One was set up in 2011 by two Dutch men with the goal of establishing permanent human life on Mars in 2025. They hope the project will be funded by investors and the rights from the documentary-cum-reality TV broadcasting of the tests, training and final selection.

The 1,058 candidates who got through to the first round come from all over the world. By far the largest number - 297 - are American, followed by 75 Canadians and 62 Indians.

They must now undergo rigorous tests, including simulations of life on Mars and coping with isolation, co-founder Bas Lansdorp said.

"The challenge with 200,000 applicants is separating those who we feel are physically and mentally adept to become human ambassadors on Mars from those who are obviously taking the mission much less seriously," Lansdorp said.

Gun Vs. Gun..

Is It Possible To Steal What Is Yours?

The government is a pig that will eat anything you throw at it and ask for more. The problem is that it does not ask, it takes. It takes more than it needs and gives it to others in exchange for votes. The government prostitutes voters with our money in order to expand government. This is theft.

The saddest thing is that the very people that the government prostitutes are the people who remain in suffering because of government meddling in the marketplace and the rot and loss of human dignity that comes from dependence.

The Wrong Medicine..

A doctor from France says:"In France , the medicine is so advanced that we cut off a man's testicles; we put them into another man, and in 6 weeks he is looking for work."

A German doctor comments quietly : "That's nothing, in Germany we take part of the brain out of a person; we put it into another person head, and in 4 weeks he is looking for work."

A Russian doctor says boasting :"That's nothing either. In Russia we take out half of the heart from a person; we put it into another person's chest, and in 2 weeks he is looking for work."

The U.S. doctor laughs and answers loudly immediately: "That's nothing my colleagues, you are way behind us....in the USA , about 5 years ago, we grabbed a person from Kenya with no brains, no heart, and no balls....we made him President of the United States, and now....... the whole damn country is looking for work.

Ach du lieber!

It is SO Cold In Florida Right Now.....

Yes, I am jerking your chain.

Sorry, I could not resist....

Brrr....

Does Comcast Condone MSNBC's Extreme Leftist Views?

Since January 28, 2011, Comcast has owned 51 percent of NBC Universal including MSNBC. Does Comcast condone the vile vitriol coming from MSNBC? They certainly allow this type of programming to continue while only stepping in when their hosts go so far over the line, they seemingly have no choice.

Since the CEO of Comcast donates mostly to leftist causes, we know where he stands. As other market alternatives come into the marketplace, perhaps the behavior of Comcast affiliated programming should be taken into account when choosing cable and internet providers.

Conservatives and right thinking individuals have got to account for the majority of Comcasts non-subsidized revenues as we tend to work and purchase services at full price.

I think Comcast may have some choices to make. The marketplace is a very competitive arena.
