<1> it's obviously false
<1> but chinese citizens are prevented from known history
<0> thanks Kaliuna
<0> Gujiri, what do you care, you do not live there
<1> they don't even know about the tianamen square uprising in china
<2> Janet -- I will do follow up on the new cascadia petunias as they send out their runners - :)
<0> yes they do, they just do not talk about it
<3> AMSTERDAM, Netherlands An addiction center is opening Europe's first detox clinic for video game addicts, offering in-house treatment for people who can't leave their joysticks alone.
<3> Video games may look innocent, but they can be as addictive as gambling or drugs and just as hard to kick, says Keith Bakker, director of Amsterdam-based Smith & Jones Addiction Consultants.
<1> Janet_B, whatever
<3> Bakker already has treated 20 video game addicts, aged 13 to 30, since January. Some show withdrawal symptoms, such as shaking and sweating, when they look at a computer console.
<2> redfish -- ya I mentioned that last night --
<3> His detox program begins in July. It will run four to eight weeks, and will include therapy sessions, wilderness excursions, healthy lifestyle workshops and possibly medication.
<3> oh
<0> Gujiri.. I think I would know since my son lived there for 4 years
<2> :)
<1> Janet_B, are you in favor of the chinese government using our major internet firms to censor topics from their people ?
<0> Gujiri.. it is there country, they can so what they want
<0> do
<1> supposedly
<0> if the people do not like it have a civil are
<0> war
<1> china can do what they want to
<1> but I was asking about american complicity
<4> it's so funny when someone calls a college girl a "coed"
<0> they are allowed to make money any way they want this IS a free country
<1> true
<0> what do you care, that they can not access some things on the internet
<1> but it's almost like the USA is some other planet
<0> it is another culture
<1> it's more than that
<0> they have theres they seem to be happy with it
<0> we have ours, all we do is whine
<1> chinese culture is fine
<2> and we whine enough...
<5> Kali: stop talking i tolllldd youuu alreaddyyy
<0> pretty pics kal!!
<5> what pix?
<1> except for the sequestered workers that build up the infrastructure but are in the end just farm boys
<2> Janet -- you're welcome
<4> something is wrong with a culture that embraces things that the communist regime does
<2> Timur-- well there is the pix of the pepper plants in one folder and flowers in another one
<2> Janet -- they are very pretty right now...
<0> I have no problem with them selling google to the chinese under their conditons
<1> I think the US should leave China alone
<5> Kali: nice
<5> I'm gonna take pix of nyc tomorrow
<2> Timur -- you know how to find my fun site...
<0> it is like making a hair dryer .. one the the US and another for Germany they are different
<1> except for taiwann.. I support taiwann independance.. but that is just a thought
<4> don't worry, the US can't really tell China what to do
<1> I know
<4> so leaving them alone is a non-issue
<5> Kali: I forget..
<1> It's important to have a commonality
<2> Timur --sheesh -- http://pages.prodigy.net/cherryak go down to photographs - click on and follow through clicks to reach peppers and flowers

<7> blah
<2> TT -- ya we have been in the 90s -- suppose to rain tomorrow night ... cool off to upper 80s
<4> hey TT Darthburg wants an invite
<6> ok
<4> oh he logged off IRC
<4> nm
<2> US next time tell him to hold on
<1> darthburg is a pretty ominous nickname
<6> Yeah, so watch it!
<1> Hai!
<1> heh
<5> hai!
<2> ya!
<1> hai is some japanese I learned
<6> Means yes doesn't it?
<8> hrm, was messing with this game... freeciv installed the latest beta version, and i played like 5 diff games, got all the way to like year 2000 or so, and the SOB is broken, air units wont attack anything!
<8> boy that steams me..
<4> WASHINGTON (AP) - House Democratic leaders are determined to sanction Rep. William Jefferson, scandal-scarred but unindicted, despite a blunt reminder from the Congressional Black Caucus that he is entitled to a ``presumption of innocence.''
<1> it probably means alot more than that
<8> get all that way just to find out its broken
<4> "The North Carolina Democrat added Thursday night that black voters might wonder why a ``black member of Congress'' would be stripped of his committee post with neither rule nor precedent to justify it. "
<4> hahaha
<4> "let him go cause he's black"
<8> well they do have him on tape accepting money
<4> well.. yeah!
<4> ****.
<5> hai means shark in Norweigian!
<1> heh
<2> What is taking them so long to bring him to justice??
<8> justice requires a trial and such, him stepping down from a leadership position doesnt
<8> like when delay stepped down for an indictment
<2> If he were GOP - they'd (DEMS) would be yelling their heads off to kick him out now
<8> has he been indicted yet?
<1> the japanese take obedience to the 10th level.
<2> no - latest I heard was they would file charges in July...
<4> Dem leaders want him to go, he makes them look bad
<8> US-Male they can remove him forcefully id imagine, if necessary
<4> I suspect the Repubs might want him to stay -- for the same reason
<4> yeah they could if they had to
<3> usmale my love for you is not a joke!
<4> with the proper order he can be dragged out kicking and screaming
<8> they could expel him from congress altogether
<8> heh
<4> redfish: ?
<4> hahha
<8> the house rules probably have some provision for removal from a comittee or leadership position though
<3> yea they can expel him from congress for just breaking ethics rules
<8> think they need 2/3 of both houses or something
<8> or maybe just of the particular house
<2> bmc -- do they -- thought those were ETHICS -- and bribery definitely falls under ethics rules
<4> House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi renewed her call Thursday for Jefferson to give up his seat on the House Ways and Means Committee until his legal situation is clarified.
<4> she wants him gone
<4> before November
<2> He should be gone NOW -- but ehh -- might cause problems ...
<4> if I were in her pace, I would want him gone too
<0> I hope he stays hehe
<2> Janet - at least until they take the matter up to court - which is supposedly first of July --
<4> maybe I should revert to my normal cynical self and say things that justify him staying =)
<8> Each House may determine the Rules of its Proceedings, punish its Members for disorderly Behavior, and, with the Concurrence of two-thirds, expel a Member.
<8> just 2/3 of the particular house seems like
<0> well they are sure affording him a speedy trial, which they have denied De Lay
<2> oh thats not for a TRIAL -- thats just charges to be brought -- which means he could be removed from congress --
<8> yea
<0> why?
<2> you know one of those Grand Jury things -- like what they did to DeLay
<0> they can not remove him untill he is found guilty
