  1. RAPPER Eminem’s new album Encore has been leaked on to the internet. The Real Slim Shady star’s hotly-anticipated fourth album was stolen nearly two weeks before its release date. The theft has sparked panic at his record label Interscope who have brought forward the worldwide release date. An illegal website called RNS put the entire album on the net two days ago.

  2. Happy November folks. With the political race over, it's nice to return to our normal routines..and the holday season is not far away. My plans for the weekend are no plans - Saturday, I think a movie is in order, but it could be a football Saturday. On Sunday, I will be having a Bible reading class and inviting some Hollywood folks over for potluck, followed by some group singing of "Hail to the Chief" and "Onward Christian Soldiers" - must keep up with 'what's in' with the populace (J/K - no offense to any religious folks here) Whats up with you guys?
  3. Video Shown To Third-Graders During Civics Lesson Teacher's Quickly Removed Adult Video From VCR November 4, 2004 SOUTHLAKE, Texas -- Officials at a North Texas school say an Election Day civics lesson for some third-graders inadvertently included a sexually explicit videotape. Some students at Johnson Elementary School in Southlake saw the video as they were leaving an auditorium Tuesday. School district officials said teachers had removed an unmarked tape from a video player and played a lesson on the three branches of government. http://www.local6.com/news/3890728/detail.html
  4. Apparently they were burned at the stake as all is clear today :good job:
  5. Is it an epigram with the scrambled letters of your name?
  6. There was an attack on the network yesterday that has since been fixed: Hello Chris, Unfortunately, yesterday we have expereinced an attack like no other. We have worked with our upstream providers and have blocked off the attacks. As a result one bandwidth provider has been temporarily turned off. The network is not experiencing any problems at this moment.
  7. According the Drudge Report, Ashcroft is going to resign :bigsmile:
  8. I agree that it was an odd move for McKain to Kiss ass after what they did to him--but I think there must be an explanation there somewhere. I would consider voting for him... The sad thing about the recent election, if you believe the exit polls, is that the majority of voters chose Bush over Kerry on the issue of morality--this is not sour grapes, but...just because Bush and Cheney attend church, does not make them moral. In fact, I cant think of a more immoral and hypocritical crew... they could care less about the every day Joe they could care less whether Joe's kids are sent off to war they could care less about the environment we live in they could care less about Joe's kids educations they could care less about the rest of the world all they care about is power and money
  9. Sounds like my kind of team :bigsmile:
  10. anyone, please, instead of the unmentionables
  11. I merged Yoda's Bush victory thread here because there are too many Bush-Kerry Threads....
  12. The Redskins used to practice in my home town. Growing up I liked the Packers. Since then I tend to like teams that like to pass long... not sure who that would be
  13. The Bush-Cheney victory will not deter US for fighting things that are right and just...
  14. I think the Republican party should follow suit... *** In his victory speech, Bush promised to serve all American and earn their trust... that I would like to see. *** Apparently the predominant factor was morality and that they felt Bush would do a better jo in terms of moral values Ironically, they thought Kerry would do a better job on Iraq and the economy Hard to believe.
  15. Congrats to all the Beatkingers who voted for Bush. Curious as to why? Although this wasnt my choice, I take solace in not being part orf the mainstream...because Im not middle of the road about anything
  16. No Exits Now it's Kerry who has to thread the needle. By William Saletan Updated Tuesday, Nov. 2, 2004, at 9:43 PM PT 9:33 p.m. PT: That proviso about the exit polls matching the returns is looking quite a bit more important now than it did three hours ago. Bush has Florida and Colorado in the bag. All scenarios for a Kerry victory now require Ohio. Kerry led 51-49 in the Ohio exit poll this afternoon. But he also led 51-49 in the Florida exit poll, and we've seen what happened there. Nationwide, the exit polls had Kerry up 51-48. But with 80 million votes counted already, it's Bush who has a 51-48 lead. So at this point, the exit polls are at best meaningless. Or worse, if you're a Democrat, the six-point gap between what the exit polls predicted for Kerry nationally and what the returns show so far means that in Ohio, a two-point lead for Kerry in the exit poll foreshadows a Bush win by as many as four points. In New Mexico, two-thirds of the precincts have reported, and it doesn't look good for Kerry: He's down 51-48. So even if he takes Iowa, where he's now leading with two-thirds of the vote tallied, he'll have to win either Nevada, which has just begun counting, or Wisconsin. In Wisconsin, he's hanging on to a 14,000-vote lead—that's a single percentage point—with half the precincts reporting. If Kerry holds that lead in Wisconsin and closes what is now a 120,000-vote Bush lead in Ohio, he's the next president. Or if he holds his lead in Iowa and picks off Nevada, he can get the same result—but not without Ohio. Three-quarters of the precincts in Ohio have now reported, and Kerry still trails by 126,000 votes, about 3 percent of the total. I don't think he can pull it off. But I've been wrong so many times now that I'd be happy—no, really, in this case I would be positively delighted—to be proved wrong again. http://www.slate.com/id/2109079/
  17. I believe young people voted. I dont believe the people who said they didnt
  18. Zogby's last poll said that Bush would win the popular vote, but not the electoral vote
  19. No Exit The exit polls force Bush to thread the needle. By William Saletan Posted Tuesday, Nov. 2, 2004, at 6:09 PM PT Nov. 2, 6:08 PT: We can't be sure how far tonight's returns will ultimately vary from the late-afternoon exit-poll numbers (see this "Press Box"). But with that understood, let's talk about what the numbers mean, if true, for the electoral map. Bush gets to 189 electoral votes with no problem. Assuming he takes Virginia, he's at 202. With Missouri, where he's 5 points up in the exit polls, he's at 213. Now he needs Colorado. I never took this state seriously as a problem for him, but the afternoon numbers suggest it might be: He's up just a point there. Let's assume he takes it. Now he's at 222. At this point, he has run out of states where he's leading in the exit polls, and he's still looking for a combination of 47 electoral votes to get him to 269. (He wins in the House if it's a tie.) The next best shots are Nevada and Iowa, where he's down a point. Let's say he takes them, too. Now he's at 234, still 35 electoral votes away—and he has run out of states where he's trailing by a single point. He'll have to start winning in places where he's trailing by two. How about New Mexico? Let's give him that. Now he's at 239, but that's still not enough to win the election even if Florida comes around. He'll have to capture the other state where he's down two in the exit polls: Ohio. It seems a bit unfair, making him win a state with 20 electoral votes just to get the three he needs for a tie. Wouldn't it be easier to package Florida or Ohio with Wisconsin? Either combination gets him to 269 or beyond, so let's try that. Colorado plus Nevada plus Iowa plus New Mexico plus Wisconsin plus either Ohio or Florida. For those of you doing the math at home, that's a Bush sweep of five states where the exit polls have him trailing, without losing a single state in which he leads. In three of those states, Bush's winning scenario requires the exit polls to be at least two points off. In Wisconsin, it requires the exit polls to be at least three points off. And it gets uglier from there. Because if even one of these breaks doesn't go Bush's way, there is no remaining state on the board in which he trails by less than six in the exit polls. Bush can win this thing, but he'll need a lot of luck. More than he'll get, if you ask me. http://www.slate.com/id/2109079/
