Track 6: New Song #2 Skwerl didn't know the name of this song, but I'm guessing its "Message For you" because Axl sings it more clearly than any thing else. And I'm guessing the message is "You done me wrong, girl." It's not a bad song, but it's very serious about itself and a little boring at the same time. It sounds like if it had come out earlier, Michael Bay would have used it for the soundtrack for the Transformers. Grade...
...what the price of oil would be today if it had been higher in the past. Suppose, for example, that President George W. Bush had used the political gift certificate he was granted on Sept. 11, 2001, when he could have asked Americans to do almost anything in the name of fighting terrorism, to impose a $1.50 "War on Terror" tax on a gallon of gas (instead of squandering his gift certificate on invading Iraq).

FXS affects roughly 1 in 2,500 boys, causing autism spectrum disorders in about half of them. That makes FXS the most common known cause of autism, responsible for roughly...

Its purpose was to establish a continuity with the popular nationalist revolutionary movement of the 1920s. While President Ortega may still imagine himself to be Sandino's heir, many of his former comrades say today's FSLN is nothing more than a vehicle for Ortega's personal ambitions, and has little claim to the ideals of its revolutionary past...
...about debunking Ortega's myth, and revealing that the emperor has no clothes. "This is part of the struggle, to recover these symbols and give them democratic legitimacy once again," Ramirez said. "They have lots of power, lots of strength. They have the power to convoke others. Sandino, his name, his hat, the symbol...
