They might have a better case ( or maybe more sympathy from the school) if they would bully you...

That exeption is pretty much stupid.

Remember the Texan Judge who beat up his disabled daughter? Well now he's trying say what he did in that video wasn't that bad and claims the only reason his daughter posted it because he cut her financial aid.

Your opinion? Is he a man telling the truth or a man covering up his crime?

He's trying to say he didn't whip a girl with his belt? Seriously?

*keeps holding rage in*

Do we have enough hints to have an opinion on it? He is indeed guilty of hitting her, but that's all, we won't ever know the truth.

I'm more shocked about the fact a 17years old girl has a Mercedes btw.

Israel, US and UK 'planning' attack on Iran nuclear facility

Humans never learn, or is it the come back of the axis of evil?

A determined German cleaner destroyed a piece of art valued at £690,000 by cleaning away what she thought was an unsightly stain from the artwork.

The cleaner got to work on an installation by the late and famed artist Martin Kippenberger at a museum in Dortmund.

Entitled “When It Starts Dripping From The Ceilings” the piece comprised a tower of wooden slats with a plastic bowl at the bottom painted brown to give the impression of discolouration caused by water. The cleaner took the paint to be an actual stain and scrubbed the bowl till it looked new.

Modern Art, a marketeer's wet dream.

Modern Artist - Talentless people who are convince they have talent.

What more do you need, exactly? "Won't ever know the truth" behind what?

Or who can convince people they have talent. Which is a talent all by itself.

They don't have to, that is their marketing agent's job.

The reasons, we know he has beaten her but what Terrorist asks is "whether he is masking his bad deeds or not" and this I believe we don't have enough information to tell it.

While it's true I'm no expert in the domain,the few modern artists I know of market themselves,they don't hire someone else to do it for them.

Greece is like the God Emperor of W40K universe, being kept alive for one questionable and possibly worthless purpose while wasting tons of resources.

The Euro needs to collapse so manufacturing and such can shift out of China and into Europe and Africa, diversifying the factory concentration around the world. Otherwise China will hold the rest of the world hostage with their manufacturing capability, like how US is holding the rest of the world hostage with their "standard" currency.

With so much power concentrated in few hands, the holders tend to become complacent and start bullying to get what they want.

Pakistan is playing China against US and back, so they can get the best deals. Iran is different, they are hellbent on rebuilding the Persian Empire and enforcing religion into politics.

I'd say a euro collapse would have rather drastic consequences for Europe. A complete breakdown of law and order.

Political patronage isn't economic development, but it has helped satisfy the immediate daily needs of the "50 percent of the population whose top priority is survival," says veteran pollster Raúl Obregón. And for Nicaragua's huddled masses, basic needs take priority over democracy. Obregón's M&R poll shows that 54.6% of the population thinks it's okay to sacrifice a little institutional democracy to resolve socioeconomic problems, while 33% claim they don't care how a leader gets into power, so long as he resolves peoples' hardships. "People are saying, 'Democracy doesn't feed me; it doesn't fill my stomach,'" says Obregón.

Maybe, maybe not. The only sure thing it would happen would be a MASSIVE (and I mean 1930s massive) depression with virtually every economy in Europe collapsing. Yes, even those not in the Euro and yes, even Germany.
