The judge should dismiss in a strongly worded opinion and keep this nonsense from polluting other courts. PETA, continue to be vigilant against CRUELTY to animals, but please get your collective heads out of your collective donkeys.

A former boss used to tell this story: Frank goes to his boss Bob and says, "Bob, I've figured out why we clash so often. We have a personality conflict."

Bob says to Frank, "You know, you are correct. Change yours."

Good advice for China.

Yes she did speak at two campuses, but canceled one appearance after hearing, inter alia, "Even before that appearance, Ms. Coulter had been warned by François Houle, the University of Ottawa’s provost, that someone who makes intemperate racial remarks can be prosecuted in Canada."

That is a country where you cannot speak your mind, unless you are an all seeing, all knowing swami who knows what an "intemperate racial remark" is OR you love being prosecuted.

I sympathize with the Muslim businessman. But the story here is not the invasion of his privacy without due cause and the racial profiling. Nope, the important takeaway is that this happened in Canada, a nation fond of wagging its cold extended finger our way and lecturing us about human rights. It's the country Ann Coulter can't speak in, and where radio stations can be fined and penalized for carrying a broadcast the PC crowd thinks is racially "biased" or comprises Canada's own definition of hate speech.

Looks like Canada is suffering an extreme case of bipolar personality disorder.

"That indicates that the brain vulnerabilities had a family origin, though somehow the siblings of addicts -- either due to environmental factors or other differences in brain structure -- were able to resist addiction."

Were the parents and ancestors all drug addicts too? "Other differences" = old fashioned, God given WILLPOWER.

I'm not sure why it's important to focus on whether the error was made by a civilian contractor or an active duty person. The fact is that PEOPLE have been making errors in the maintenance of aircraft since the Wright Flyer. You can compile Best Practices and Lessons Learned until you are blue in the face and PEOPLE will continue to mess up.

Supposedly, Quality Control functions are there to find and correct mistakes like these before they evolve into catastrophic accidents. Where were those functions in this case?

I'm not sure why this is even worth reporting on. I assume wherever there are Muslims, there will be torture. And I don't mean the American liberal definition: loud music, 200 count sheets, and some water up the nose.

I mean the real thing. It's in their blood and part of their culture. If you doubt me, do a little reading.

I used to joke that the government would give someone a grant to instruct us all how to turn a doorknob. Scary when your sarcasm starts to have a ring of truth.
