How We See The World

I'm trying to post a picture in the body of my reply in one of the forums . I've read the FAQ and I can't seem to find a 'button under the message box' that would allow me to add it in the body of my message. Am I missing something really obvious? I just want to post a live picture from the Chicago show...any help?

http://www.cuil.com Anyone try out the new search engine boasting to be better than Google? I like the look of it and how it displays the results in a magazine-like way. I also like the tabs that further breaks down your search to specific results. Like if you type in banana. There are tabs for Banana Republic, banana bread, banana boat etc. It just makes things neat and clean and no need to search through numerous pages of results. Opinions?

Cheney, Neocons Considered Killing Americans in Pretext to Attack Iran In the video here, taped at the Campus Progress journalism conference earlier this month, the Pulitzer-Prize winning journalist Seymour Hersh reveals how the neocons convened around Dick Cheney and brainstormed ways to kick off World War IV, as they fondly call their pet project to take out the Muslims and foment a contrived “clash of civilizations.” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slgBrbNXrbs Watch the full clip and see that such plans are never reported even when such ideas are known to the press and people like Cheney in government are brainstorming similar plots. That's fucked up. No wonder …

Last year 87,200 women and girls were arrested for attacks – the equivalent of 240 every day. It is the first time in history that violence has been the most common crime among women and girls, taking over from theft. The category includes every violent offence from street brawls and assault to grievous bodily harm and murder. Ladette louts: …

I saw the movie Hot Fuzz a while back in '07, but I only caught the end of it. I recently watched it again, and recorded it. I have since fallen in love with the movie. I have watched it God knows how many times now and I am currently listening to Supergrass right now (They played at the credits of the movie). I love this movie, but I want to know how everyone else thought of it. I've showed it to all of my friends and they all loved it. So tell me your opinion of it.

Parents should introduce their children to alcohol at home, says David Cameron By James Chapman Last updated at 6:59 PM on 30th July 2008 Comments (13) Add to My Stories Parents should introduce their children to alcohol at home to help prevent them binge drinking in the future, David Cameron said today.

Those who had been allowed small amounts to drink at mealtimes were now the most responsible drinkers, he said. His stance is at odds with that of the Government, which is planning to set a new age limit telling pa…

It’s just a shame no one has got round to explaining that to Jack – the bird that thinks he’s a dog. When the Notaro-Livingstone family first discovered their confused pet, he was too small to fend for himself and so they took him in and cared for him. Jack tucks into his dog biscuits from a bowl But after just ten weeks of living with the family, the crow has some …

Well, the Tour's nearly over, but I was amazed nobody had made a thread already for this thrilling event. It may have been tarnished by drug cheats in recent years, but I firmly believe that this tells us merely that the cycling drug tests and anti-doping policies are actually working and finding the cheats. In the meantime...come on Cadel Evans!!!

The Foreign Office admitted a serious breach of security today after 3,000 blank passports destined for British embassies worldwide were stolen from a van. The 24 parcels, containing blank passports and vignettes - the blank stickers for visa stamps - were taken from the vehicle, which was en-route from a factory in Oldham to RAF Northolt near London.

A Foreign Office spokeswoman said that the "security features" made them unusable, but added that the Home …

The threatening letter on the doormat about licence fee non-payment might soon be joined by another from your local internet service provider. At least it will if you have been virally spreading Coldplay without permission. Bereft, perhaps, of enough incidents of dangerous dogs to merit new legislation, the government is attempting to cut illegal downloading activity by up to 80%. In an initiative involving the record industry trade body, the BPI, the film industry and the government, a memorandum of understanding has been drawn up that will potentially see the half-dozen largest internet service providers in the UK sending out around 1,000 letters a week as a warning…

Ronaldo declared within moments of Portugal's elimination from the European Championship finals by Germany on Thursday that he hopes to join Real and while a formal statement to that effect is expected…

I recently sent this letter I wrote to a Hillary Clinton fan who is trying to sabotage Obama. If you agree with it, please feel free to send it to whoever it might apply to. "As much as you don’t want to hear it, you are one of the many people who wanted to vote for Clinton for whatever reason. You hated Obama because you were told to by her. You apparently know little of his policies (most of which are identical to Clinton 's) and you just ramble on about how he's fake and bad for the country. Oh and you believe any lies like this letter that says Obama refused to shake hands with soldiers during a visit to Afghanistan . Why does everyone have to believe what this …
