Why Obama won’t give the Ferguson speech his supporters want

President Obama's statement,
delivered moments after St. Louis
County Prosecutor Bob
McCulloch rendered the grand
jury's verdict , was a plea for calm.
It was steady and evenhanded.
Obama recognized the fear and
anger of both sides. He called for
calm. He argued that the two sides
here were, in a sense, one.
"Nobody needs good policing more
than poor communities with high
crime rates," he said. And, in doing,
he disappointed many who had
hoped to hear something more
impassioned, more outraged, from
the president:

GIRL FRIEND IS BETTER THAN BOY FRIEND

   SHARE CLOTHES There are so many things you can only do with your girl friends that your boyfriend will never understand, having a boyfriend can be a lot of fun, but sometimes you just can't beat a girl friend! For instance, you can share clothes, shoes and other accessories with your girl friend -- double the wardrobe options and style advice all in one. If you did that with your boyfriend, things would start to get a little weird.      GOSSIP Your boyfriend doesn't really care about all of the intricate details of the lives of people he doesn't know, especially celebrities, but your girl friend will always be there to listen to any juicy details you have just found out. Girl friends are especially good for gushing about how hot your favorite male celeb is, something your boyfriend definitely doesn't want to hear about!   THEY WONT CHEAT Of course not all boyfriends cheat, but since you aren't in a commited relationship with the...

Digisexuals:Why Do They Believe in Sex With Robots?

The rise of sex robots has academics studying whether people will even need human intimacy anymore. What with the endless hordes of sex robots on the horizon. I’m sure we’ve all been seeing the advancements of sex robots lately. With AI Robot Sophia actually being declared a citizen of Saudi Arabia this October, and a brothel that changes it’s location every night in Barcelona where the women have been replaced by sex robots! Brothel owner Sergei Prieto said, "Customers come to seek new sexual experiences and new ways of living sex. Like us, they believe that this is the beginning of the sex of the future”, and it’s being suggested that even more is to come in a new report from ethics researchers Neil McArthur and Markie Twist of the University of Manitoba. The report suggests, “There is no question, then, that sexbots are coming. Our view is that they will represent a different sort of sexual experience from what existing technologies offer.

MY FACT ABOUT BIAFRA.

This is a part some people will not like to hear, but we will say it here for historical purposes. When the great Biafran leader, Col. Dim Emeka Odimegwu Ojukwu was granted a state pardon by President Shehu Shagari in 1982, the Ikemba soon contested for Senate under the then National Party of Nigeria (NPN), but did his people vote for him? Lest we also forget, he contested for the presidency, how many votes did he got even in Anambra? Let us bring in Chief Alex Ekweme. We recall, despite being founding member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP),he contested for the party nomination for president in 2002. We all remember how the South-East governors then did all they could to outdo themselves to be seen to be more loyal to President Olusegun Obasanjo than even his own ministers. There was nothing wrong in all these for these people as long as it all guarantees fat bank accounts and unmerited rewards. No one talks about Biafra when contract figures are inflated; Biafra makes no sense ...
