Moore officials: Federal grants to help build 'safe rooms' delayed by red tape
Tue May 21, 2013
- First off, I am not a "liberal" or a "conservative" though I guess in most things I do lean that way. I consider myself middle of the road. I believe in helping people when they REALLY need it, but I am so tired of government "rebates" for individuals, new cars, wind and solar energy, now safe rooms …
Six of the worst twisters in US history
Mon May 20, 2013
- LG,I believe Worcester Mass is in the NE. Super Storm Sandy was in the NE. Disasters happen everywhere in the world. Don't ever get complacent thinking it can't happen to you, because that is exactly when it does. Tornado alley does have a lot of twisters, but it is extremely rare to have them as la …
Curse or coincidence? Scientists study Tornado Alley's past and future
Mon May 20, 2013
- Andy, I don't know about the ground type in Oklahoma, but in Texas, the ground has a lot of caliche or gumbo clay. This tends to make the ground expand and contract raising havoc on underground structures. There was a neighborhood in Arlington, TX that was built with basements to attract a large inf …
Florida mom alleges anti-gay bias after daughter expelled, arrested
Mon May 20, 2013
- Any parent of a child 12-16 who found out that that child was having relations with a boy or a girl 18 or over could file charges. That boy or girl would then be charged with a crime. It is only fair to treat the boy or girl the same. It doesn't matter if they met in school, if they were first frien …
Texas tornadoes devastate neighborhood built by residents, Habitat for Humanity
Thu May 16, 2013
- spqr2 storm shelters ARE wonderful, but you have to figure in the cost vs the chance of need. Especially with an organization like Habitat where the initial goal is to provide a home to those who need them. The cost of a built in shelter in each home would prevent others from even having a shelter a …
After AP leak controversy, White House pushes for media-shield law
Wed May 15, 2013
- The media needs to have common sense when it comes to releasing information that could endanger U S citizens or troops abroad. But, the media ALSO needs protection to uncover "executive" acts which might be detrimental to the US or it's citizens. Nixon had his own agenda, and it was right for his hi …
More women opting for preventive mastectomy - but should they be?
Wed May 15, 2013
- NATURECHILD, As an early colon cancer patient, I can understand Jolie she felt. You want to get the cancer out NOW. I had a very teeny polyp that showed cancer; the smallest my doctor had ever seen. I had the option to remove part of my colon, or wait a year and see if it was elsewhere in my body. I …
Cleveland suspect's mother says her son sick, asks forgiveness of victims
Thu May 9, 2013
- justoneguy I don't know if the mother can speak English or not. But speaking in Spanish to Telemundo doesn't mean that she can not speak English. Puerto Rico IS part of the US and it is very bi-lingual. IF she has been on the mainland for as many years as the rest of the family claims, then she prob …
19 killed in gas truck blast as fireball rips through cars, homes in Mexico
Tue May 7, 2013
- Handling gasoline is so touchy. That's why the US has such strict rules. A couple of years ago, a driver was transferring gasoline into a truck, overfilled it, and it blew up. Only he was killed, but not right away. There was another employee there that tried to warn him it was full, but he argued. …

Sat May 4, 2013
- pda726 Ankle braclets have been proven ineffective. The perp just cuts them off and goes on his merry way. There again, why would he care about getting in trouble by cutting it off? That is minor compared to what he has on his mind.
