Atheist Fundamentalists I am prothelsized to constantly by atheist friends, both on Facebook and in my life, things I never do – I am told that they are doing this as some form of protest for equality. Yet, these very same people take offense to anyone putting up anything religious on their Facebook page.I had an atheist friend say to me he was insulted and angry that religious people/colleagues no longer wanted to talk or debate with him – when his intent in his own words ‘was to tear them a new a-hole!’ Sounds like you need new ‘friends.’ And did it ever occur to you that all the atheists you know are in-your-face about their atheism because you don’t HEAR from the ones who aren’t? I have to disagree again. Further, while I might have a ‘belief system’, it can’t be compared to a ‘religious’ or ‘spriritual’ ‘belief system,’ which is something else entirely. “I don’t think all humans are bad. So you see, while the lengthy non-beliefs might be true statements, they are NOT part of my belief system.

Dear blank, please blank Wenn man nicht aufpasst, kann es passieren, dass man ohne es zu merken gleich mehrere Stunden auf der “Dear blank, please blank” Homepage verbringt.

The Ultimate Road Trip Playlist - 50 Best Road Trip Songs&|&The Jetpacker - StumbleUpon No road trip is complete without a playlist of songs that capture the spirit of traveling on the open road. So we’ve compiled a list of the 50 best road trip songs . In order to make this be-all end-all totally definitive list that all other lists look up to, the songs had to meet the following criteria: a.) encompass the excitement and freedom of road tripping b.) make the time pass faster c.) keep you awake without the assistance of questionably legal pills named “No Doze” d.) contain lyrics so singable that you’ll legitimately consider trying out for the next “American Idol” e.) keep you distracted long enough to make you forget you need to pee (which subsequently means stopping at a heinous rest stop where the bathroom stalls are tagged with death threats and truckers hit on you) f.) drown out the sound of your annoying friend who complains about a developing deep vein thrombosis from being crammed in the backseat (tough it up!) 50.

Inside Nike's &Adaptive Traction,& the Wolverine of Soccer... At a big, blow-out event in London last week, Nike unveiled its splashiest innovation, in advance of the 2010 World Cup: The Mercurial Superfly Vapor II football boot (or "soccer shoe," to Americans). Aside from the hotrod looks, the most intriguing innovation was the "adaptive traction technology," which allows the pegs of the cleats to actively adjust to turf conditions. Say what? How's that happen? "From pitch to pitch, and even within a single pitch, the ground conditions vary," says Andrew Caine, Nike's creative director for soccer footware. "In design, the simpler the mechanism, the better something works," says Caine. When a player steps into soft ground, the carbon sole flexes, pushing those columns down. After impact, the coating then pulls the pegs back into place, and keeps them from driving back up into the foot. The colors, meanwhile, are meant to be a performance enhancer for the entire team.
