This has no place on a peaceful planet... If you agree, let's flood the Philippine leadership with the message. Are you with me? (y)



This has no place on a peaceful planet... If you agree, let's flood the Philippine leadership with the message. Are you with me? (y) - No-one arrested by the police is safe from torture in the Philippines. Forced suffocation, electric shocks, water-boarding, striking with wooden batons and beatings. In police stations across the Philippines, torture is happening right now to people just like you and me but together we can stop it.…

My Friends, Did you know that for the first time in history the end of extreme poverty is within reach? This year, world leaders will set development goals for the next 15 years – goals that could set a course to lifting over a billion people out of extreme poverty, or that could simply cement the status quo. If we get together in great numbers, we can force our leaders to think big. They are not primarily a charity. If you can't offer a donation, they simply ask you to use your voice to encourage governments and others to play their part too. Make 2015 count, join me in becoming a member of Global Citizen ( http://ift.tt/R39iao ) You have my sincere thanks... :) (y)

Hilarious... This guy's dead on! (No pun intended, hehe) :P (y) If you saw the 1996 movie Sling Blade with Billy Bob Thornton, then you'll appreciate this man's impersonation of Karl Childers. YouTuber 'Psych Ward' posted this video last August, but it's been getting a lot of attention these last few days with over 870,000 views. Jason Ward imitates Karl Childers and orders a skinny vanilla latte for his wife at the drive-thru window at Starbucks as his wife and children hold back their laughter. Poor Starbucks employee has no idea.

This is not the way to correctly deal with a human being who has exercised their human right to free speech, whether or not they did so tactfully or responsibly. Please support this cause and help prevent the physical torture of a human being simply for exercising free speech. #FreeSpeech



This is not the way to correctly deal with a human being who has exercised their human right to free speech, whether or not they did so tactfully or responsibly. Please support this cause and help prevent the physical torture of a human being simply for exercising free speech. #FreeSpeech - Demand Saudi Arabia stops torturing Raif Badawi. Raif will dealt another 50 lashes this Friday - and every week, until he has been flogged 1,000 times. All because he blogged about free speech.

This is SO 'Not just about ISIS' - in fact... I think I've just found the most impressive, informative and accurate article that explains Islam - its divisions, sects (violent and non-violent), influences on global culture as well as ways they have been influenced by global culture, etc. It goes into great detail about the effects that oil (and money) has had, the origins of Islam, the civil and sectarian wars, wars involving other emergent empires, etc. It truly explains everything - including the formation of ISIS, who are currently causing a great deal of terrorism in the world. This is like the 'CLIFF'S NOTES' of Islamic history...and it is fairly thorough. I'm sure that most people will have a very hard time understanding it, especially those who know little or nothing about Islam already or who have already made the mistake of not caring or being satisfied with their ignorance, but it is definitely very interesting, enlightening and - in light of current affairs in the world - I would say it is a 'must read'! Those who choose to try to simplify what is a very complex issue spanning more years than the United States has even existed will certainly not be of any help towards global issues that affect us all. Such people will only remain ignorant and appear foolish to those who are aware. I think it would be a disservice to all people, especially Christians (and other faiths) who have spent so much time studying the Bible (and other religious texts) - also spanning more years than the US has existed - to pass up this valuable knowledge. This information may, in fact, drastically change a number of things you believe now, help you understand a lot of things you have been unable to understand and affect how you will look at them in the future. I also believe that, if you are TRULY interested in seeing a peaceful world in the future, you'll take the time to check it out... And your comments are welcome below...as long as you remember this: FIRST, read the article (or don't bother commenting). Then, if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all. I welcome all comments, regardless of whether they are for or against, but I won't tolerate hate speech or stupidity. You won't gain any respect by acting like a hatred-spewing idiot. ;) (y)

I know it's 'Faux News' - but it's extremely difficult for me to imagine that any Christian (sic), well-educated, free, fair and honest nation (as the US so often and loudly proclaims) - or its government - could allow such a sick, twisted, hate-mongering, vile, divisive, cruel, utterly brainless woman, who is the very equal of the people she is vilifying, to go on the air - on ANY national network - and spew this kind of vitriolic poison. In fact, if you actually care what is happening to the country and want to know why, this video explains it in crystal clear precision. If the US has any future, whatsoever, as a global leader...it is not going to happen by allowing people like this to poison the minds of those who were left to fall through the cracks in the educational system and who are so easily misled, inclined to believe whatever they are told and are clueless because they've given up on paying attention to this insanity...in favor of anything they can find to distract them from it. The very reason this asinine activity is taking place, which is described in this video in crystal clarity, is spot-on! If you want to believe anyone, believe Russell Brand. After all, what does he have to gain by bringing this truth to you except the same thing we all want - a shot at living in a country full of sane people who are happy and still know what love feels like. Isn't that what we all want? Aren't you all tired of the increasing poverty, hate, violence and political/corporate greed and idiocy? Do yourself a favor and take the time to actually listen! You will be glad you did...if there's an ounce of humanity left in you. And - Thanks, Russell... (y) You tower among your peers! ;)

A fair assessment... I can't argue with it. (y)



A fair assessment... I can't argue with it. (y) - Your genuine humility totally makes you stand out in a crowded room. Everyone looks up to you and you're extremely smart, but you're still approachable due to your warm demeanor. Your elegance, class, and down to Earth attitude is truly humbling to anyone who experiences it.

This is a beautiful story... I decided a long time ago that I wasn't going to let the people I encounter in life who do terrible things to me 'teach' me how to deal with others. Instead, I decided to rise above it and follow what I knew was right. It's never been easy. In fact, many years, several countries and thousands of miles later, I still run into an endless number of people who have lost hope and chose bitterness, negativity, vengeance and anger over setting a proper example - but I haven't strayed from my course...and I never will. I have better teachers... ;) (y) How much more beautiful would the world be if people were more inclined to doing things like this than doing what we typically see so often? I know I'd much rather live in such a world. How about you?

You have a beautiful loving family, great life-long friends, even the doctor is happy with your annual check up! 5. Things are generally good, and you just wish they'll stay that way for much, much longer. That's so close it borders on prophecy... (y) Go ahead, give it a try! It was fun... :P

Here we go again! :o The Server The Role of the Server is the Essence of Your Soul. Now, before we jump to any conclusions, this in no way means that you wait on other people hand and foot. What it does mean is that you are an accommodating and extremely selfless human being. The Chicken Soup you eat to feed your own soul consists of a special ingredient; tender, loving care. You have an altruistic perspective when it comes to the world and the needs of others, making you a nurturing individual by nature. Tending to the needs of others makes you feel good about yourself and being a caring person doesn't go unnoticed by those around you. Kindness should be unconditional - and you're the prime example!
