By the way, if you are not familiar with ocean dead zones, you might find this interesting:
Gulf of Mexico "dead zone" overlaps BP spill zone
I guess on the bright side it's being overlapped. Pinch

A flash from Radio Free Asia (look up their site, I have no more timeWink)
 
 
The North Korean football team coach that took part in  the lasty world cup has been sentenced to hard labour, because his team humiliated whatever few regime representant present in SA and the North Korea public that saw their three games (all lost).
 
 
 
 
 
a jury of 400 decided that he sabotaged the team.
 
 
 
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

There are already various high resolution images of the FBI seal on their website, which is partly why this is so retarded. And what can you do with the damn FBI seal anyway? Write a fake letter to troll somebody that they can verify as fake almost instantly?

BP might drill once more in the same undersea pocket of oil in the Gulf whose catastrophic leak they just plugged. Unbelievable!
I don't have a problem with that as long as they do it right this time. Other oil companies have managed to drill in such depths without causing problems.

Trying to regulate the availability of a government bureau's official seal would be an exercise in insanity. I don't know why they're choosing Wikipedia, but it's all over the internet and no matter what they did it would always be all over the internet. It's even on their own website.

Oooookaaay. What concentration of fluoxetine is needed to affect a shrimp and how many of Pompey's pill-poppers have to piss in the Solent to polute the Altantic to those levels... you have 30 minutes to answer this starting now (Please use both sides of the paper).
