Manson Family member is denied parole

While on Google News, I cam across an article about Susan Atkins, one of the murderers in the Mansom family. She was recently up for parole again, probably for the last time. According to doctors, she will only live for a few more months because of her brain cancer.

The Word Virginity- Is it Still important?

Tagged:  •    •    •    •    •    •  

In this day and age, many people are confused by exactly what it means to be a virgin. But does it really matter? dr. Karen Rayne doesn't think so. According to her blog, it is just a way of categorizes people, giving them titles as soon as we look at them.

Lord of the Rings is more than mythology

Tagged:  •    •    •    •    •  

Lord of the Ring, by J.R.R. Tolkien, has always had a rather devout following, even though the books weren't seriously considered in mainstream culture. And while the movies certainly had a strong and vocal fan base, they are regarded as weird, and cultish.

"It doesn't matter if it's Bill Clinton or Daffy Duck" part 2

This is a continuation of my last blog.

Bill Clinton focused mainly on the gas problem. His solutions included continued research on hybrid cars in order to make them cheaper and more effective, as well as tax breaks for those who own hybrids. He also talked about alternative fuels.

"It doesn't matter if it's Bill Clinton or Daffy Duck"

Yesterday, Bill Clinton made a five-town tour of West Virginia with the goal being to sway our vote in the primary next week. When Kennedy ran, he spoke in West virginia right before the primary, and managed to get our vote, which turns out made him the democratic candidate. For whatever reason, Bill Clinton decided that my school was an important step in this. Perhaps it was the name, Athens.

Therapy- has it helped you?

I have not been a big supporter of therapy, at least for myself. I know I am pretty ignorant, with the exception of how it is portrayed in the media and from my friends or family who have gone. I understand that it can be very helpful in diagnosing mental problems such as depression, and when it comes to marriage counseling, it can be beneficial to have a mediator who is impartial.
