AMERICAN VERSION
AUSTRALIAN CALIFORNIA VERSION
In this particular example, Aussies’ cans are definitely bigger than ours, and have 40% more beef. You gotta open ‘em from the bottom, though, since gravity points up from the Land Down Under. Otherwise you’ll be cleaning your ceiling and missing out on an Overnight Open Thread.
*[Update: Apparently the Skippy Premium Chunks In Gravy are not from down under at all and are a product of Del Monte Foods in California. It's dog food. I'd found the image on Aussie Phil's website in June of 2008 and assumed it was a product of the Land of Oz. Lo siento poco. --Bunk]

And if I am not mistaken, the Aussie Skippy is dog food.

There’s a company called “American Biotech Labs”. They produce a ‘biotic silver’ that will kill flu bugs. I’ve been using their stronger solution for a year. It’s amazing. I have a poor immune system and the silver stuff has helped me a great deal. In fact, it’s the first thing that has helped. They are a Mormon family-owned business and they are in the process of getting FDA approval. When that happens it will be by prescription only and much more expensive. I think everyone should have a bottle of it in the house. A nurse I know told me it will neutralize anthrax, but they won’t make any claims about their products directly to the public. She knows the owners.

President Awards Money to Expand Broadband Access
In an effort to expand broadband access and create jobs across the United States, President Obama has announced the awarding of $765-million in grants and loans to recipients that include public and private colleges.
The money, distributed through the Department of Commerce and the Department of Agriculture, will go to 66 projects led by colleges, Internet-service providers, libraries, communication companies, and counties. All pledge to stimulate the economy by expanding high-speed Internet to neglected communities.

Hey folks if you put out cheese you catch rats.If you put out Pamela Geller you catch Hen Johnson,a bigger rat,every single time. Then it explodes from there and you catch hysterical anti American, Islam loving creepos like IceWeesil whom by the way could be a muslim herself. Whether she is or not is immaterial since she brays their way.
Icey if you are reading this,if Pamela Geller had a wart it would look better than you.

Geller is a bigot and hatemonger, and she deliberately spreads lies about the Cordoba House initiative. One of the lies she and her ilk (like Spencer) perpetrate is the notion that the people involved with Cordoba House are somehow ‘outside agitators’– when in fact they’ve been in Tribeca for at least 20 years (possibly as many as 30, I don’t remember).
As Charles noted, it isn’t a MEGAMOSQUE or even primarily a mosque, but a community center for all of downtown, along the lines of the 92nd St Y. It will include a small prayer space for Muslims– as well as a 9-11 memorial in the lobby. That isn’t what Geller and the freaks who read her want to admit.
In the linked cache post, Geller is also continuing to call Elena Kagan — who is Jewish– a ‘nazi national socialist worshipper’ [sic, and also, sick].

I am familiar with the Cordoba Initiative, I’ve been on their mailing list for years. They’re a stalking horse for the Saudis and the Sudanese, especially their war criminal president.
Why there? Why so BIG? Let a church of any size be built in S.A., let the slavery and genocide stop in Sudan. Then, I might agree.

Watch out. In the world of the islamophobes and bigots, that is going to be turned into: “several of whose members were killed in the collapse of the World Trade Center” …WHiLE FlYiNG PLaNeS into IT!1!
I wish I were kidding.
BTW, I *think* the mosque in Tribeca organised blood drives on 9-11 and thereafter but I’m not sure about that.

NASA Administrator Charles Bolden said in a recent interview that his “foremost” mission as the head of America’s space exploration agency is to improve relations with the Muslim world.
Though international diplomacy would seem well outside NASA’s orbit, Bolden said in an interview with Al Jazeera that strengthening those ties was among the top tasks President Obama assigned him. He said better interaction with

I think there is a thread in the que on it. It is a big thing. I mean, I thought NASA was about space and science and exploration, not “reaching out” to the Masters of the Universe™ and purifying the Spirit through Jihad. Obama wants to surrender to Islam. He wants to so bad. You can just tell by the little things like this that he does.

This is interesting. I think a showdown between the Chief Justice and the spoiled man-child in the White House would be amusing. My money is on Roberts to win, but it will be interesting to see if Obama tries to dust off FDR’s court-packing plan. That was going too far for even the Democrats to allow FDR to go. The Left dreams of dictatorship, but I don’t think they are going to get one.
