  the Jaded Skeptic, Odd Jack — Authority: 126
  Came across this video. It gives a simple explanation of what the Plan B pill does and doesnt do. Lets get passed the misinformation. It is not an abortion (Not that abortion should be an anathema.). And when people want to tell you, or someone you know, it is, correct them. People shouldnt be shamed, or lied, ...

  — Authority:
  Oh, there’s nothing new about scammers on CL, but what is the point of having a blog if I cannot post about them.  I am trying to sell a basically new MacBook Pro because my stolen computer got returned to me several weeks after I got a replacement.  I got an e-mail from someone asking me to ship it to West Africa ...

• CISPA, And Why People Are Pissed and Scared

  
  the Jaded Skeptic, Odd Jack — Authority: 126
  CISPA, or Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act, is a bill that broadly expands the power government and business to share and use information, your information. It is an annoying bill, to say the least. Not in particular because it is one that refuses to stay down. A number of attempts have been made to pass ...

• Learning after last week.

  
  the Jaded Skeptic, Odd Jack — Authority: 126
  This last week has been an intense news week in the United States. It quickly got to the point that we largely became oblivious to what was happening elsewhere in the world (Yes, and the obvious joke is, "And thats new?" ha ha). So, logically I would talk about what weve been missing (bombings in Iraq, Chinese ...

• The stupid that come from the History Channel

  
  the Jaded Skeptic, Odd Jack — Authority: 126
  Came across this. History Channel, remember when it was about history? It is almost a cliche now to talk about it (When Chuck Grassley is on it, it must be old.). But it is an annoyance. It once was nice to have access to a channel where you could watch historic documentaries. Now it is day long marathons on ...

  Incredible Hulk V.2 #315 John Byrne, Keith Williams, Andy Yunchus Dennis ONeil The GOP has been trying for months now to say it is a party of the future. New ideas. New voters.

• Standing up to the Religious Right: Katelyn Campbell

  
  the Jaded Skeptic, Odd Jack — Authority: 126
  We can loose sight of the people who are putting up the hard fights. People who stand up to authority and peer pressure in places where there is just not much cover, and standing out can mean your life will be made hell.

  the Jaded Skeptic, Odd Jack — Authority: 126
  Marriage equality is now law in New Zealand . Still not in the United States.
