What to do to do about water pollution.?
Question:
I live on a beautiful lake in central Arkansas. In the last few years I've noticed quiet a change in the water. Huge clumps of something that looks like human feces floats past out dock, not every day but several times per week. There is a sewage treatment plant about a 1/2 mile from my home. Every one in this neighborhood has septic tanks, as the city says they can't put a sewer down our street. I need to know who to contact about this problem. There was a huge company here, but they closed their business not long ago. I need to know who to contact about this problem. Please don't advise me to contact our city officials. They could care less.
Answer:
Get in touch with a group like the nature conservancy or the sierra club. If you can pique their interest, they have the wherewithall to raise hell with the locals. The state EPA might be another to check with.

Which of these Arkansas Colleges are better?
Question:
Im deciding between University of Central-Conway (closest to my current home town & OK Pre-Vet Program), University of Arkansas-Fayetteville (2nd closest & better Pre-Vet program), or Arkansas State University-Jonesboro (farthest & good Pre-Vet program).
Which city & college are best? Descriptions would be helpful!
The college that is closest to me and HAS a Pre-Vet program sucks! In this Pre-Vet, you only learn about agricultural business...something Im very NOT interested in.
I want a college that teaches me about domestic animals....or in Conway's case---mainly biology classes.
Answer:
I graduated from the U of A in Fayetteville. I loved it. It is a good school with the best college atmosphere in Arkansas. I am sure you would be happy there.

Which Southern states would you prefer? Not prefer? Why?
Question:
I prefer:
-TEXAS: It's home, and it's way cooler than any other state! The people are the friendliest, and we can fly our flag the same height as the U.S. flag! How cool are we?!
-Mississippi: laid-back, genuine Southern hospitality, boiled peanuts
-Georgia: the mountains, beaches, and boiled peanuts...again
-Tennessee: a lot to do in such a small state, great history and music heritage, true hospitality.
-N. Carolina. The most beautiful mountains east of the Rockies, the Outer Banks, Piedmont, etc.
Do not prefer:
-Kentucky, by far! Rude, sour, impolite people everywhere I've been in that state (cities and towns alike,) plus most of it is literally dirty and littered (from Central City in the west to Louisville to London in the southeast.)
-Florida: same reasons as Kentucky, plus the dumpy old tourist traps and high taxes.
-Arkansas: Arkan-what? What would it be without Northwest Arkansas?
Answer:
Actually there are a lot of really nice places in Florida to live. If you don't live in tourist trap areas you have beautiful beaches, really nice towns that are beautiful. Have you been anywhere in Florida besides tourist area's? Kentucky is a Beautiful state, I have no clue what you are talking about. Louisville is a great city. I think you are just clueless.

Answer:
Florida vs Michigan and
Arizona St. vs Texas should be good games..
Clemson vs Auburn down south is going to be incredible!

If the World was so Safe before Bush took Office,How do you Explain this List???????
Question:
American Victims of Mideast Terrorist Attacks
------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------
The following is a listing of incidents in which Americans are known to have been killed by Middle East-based terrorists. The list will be updated as more information becomes available. The exact number of American casualties is difficult to calculate because of incomplete news reports regarding numbers and nationalities of those injured. The toll from the September 11, 2001, attack on the World Trade Center is also uncertain, but current figures place the number of dead above 3,000. The number of dead at the Pentagon and on the hijacked airliners numbered approximately 385. Since Yasser Arafat "renounced" violence in the Oslo Peace Accords on September 13, 1993, at least 53 Americans have been murdered and at least another 83 Americans have been injured by Palestinian terrorism. Excluding the September 11 attacks, approximately 700 Americans have been killed and 1,600 wounded in terrorist attacks since 1970. This list also includes injured Americans since Oslo 1993.
----------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------
February 23, 1970, Halhoul, West Bank. Palestinian Liberation Organization terrorists open fire on a busload of pilgrims killing Barbara Ertle of Michigan and wounding two other Americans.

September 5, 1972, Munich, Germany. During the Olympic Games in Munich, Black September, a front for Fatah, took hostage 11 members of the Israeli Olympic team. Nine athletes were killed including weightlifter David Berger, an American-Israeli from Cleveland, Ohio.
March 2, 1973, Khartoum, Sudan. Cleo A. Noel, Jr., U.S. ambassador to Sudan, and George C. Moore, also a U.S. diplomat, were held hostage and then killed by terrorists at the U.S. Embassy in Khartoum. It seems likely that Fatah was responsible for the attack.
September 8, 1974, Athens, Greece. TWA Flight 841, flying from Tel Aviv to New York, made a scheduled stop in Athens. Shortly after takeoff, it crashed into the Ionian Sea and all 88 passengers were killed, including 32-year-old Steven R. Lowe, husband Jeremiah Michel and wife, Kathrine Hadley Michel of Poughkeepsie, NY, Frederick and Margaret Hare of Bernardsville, NJ, Ralph H. Bosh of Madison, CT, Seldon and Etan Bard of Tuckahoe, NY, Dr. and Mrs. Frederick Stohlman of Newton, MA, Don H. Holiday of Mahwah, NJ, and Jon L. Chesire of Old Lyme, Ct; all of which were Almerican citizens. An investigation of the crash conclusively established that it was caused by explosives set in the rear cargo department of the plane.
June 29, 1975, Beirut, Lebanon.

April 18, 1983, Beirut, Lebanon. A truck-bomb detonated by a remote control exploded in front of the U.S. Embassy in Beirut, killing 63 employees, including the CIA's Middle East director, and wounding 120. Hizballah, with financial backing from Iran, was responsible for the attack.

January 18, 1984, Beirut, Lebanon. Malcolm Kerr, a Lebanese born American who was president of the American University of Beirut, was killed by two gunmen outside his office. Hizballah said the assassination was part of the organization's plan to "drive all Americans out from Lebanon."

The terrorists forced the pilot to fly to Tehran where the terrorists murdered two passengers--American Agency for International Development employees, Charles Hegna and William Stanford. Although an Iranian special unit ended the incident by storming the plane and arresting the terrorists, the Iranian government might also have been involved in the hijacking.
June 14, 1985, Between Athens and Rome. Two Hizballah members hijacked a TWA flight en route to Rome from Athens and forced the pilot to fly to Beirut. The terrorists, believed to belong to Hizballah, asked for the release of members of the group Kuwait 17 and 700 Shi'ite prisoners held in Israeli and South Lebanese prisons. The eight crewmembers and 145 passengers were held for 17 days during which one of the hostages, Robert Stethem, a U.S. Navy diver, was murdered. After being flown twice to Algiers, the aircraft returned to Beirut and the hostages were released. Later on, four Hizballah members were secretly indicted. One of them, the Hizballah senior officer Imad Mughniyah, was indicted in absentia.
October 7, 1985, Between Alexandria, Egypt and Haifa, Israel. A four-member PFLP squad took over the Italian cruise ship Achille Lauro, as it was sailing from Alexandria, Egypt, to Israel. The squad murdered a disabled U.S. citizen, Leon Klinghoffer, by throwing him in the ocean. The rest of the passengers were held hostage for two days and later released after the terrorists turned themselves in to Egyptian authorities in return for safe passage. But U.S. Navy fighters intercepted the Egyptian aircraft flying the terrorists to Tunis and forced it to land at the NATO airbase in Italy, where the terrorists were arrested. Two of the terrorists were tried in Italy and sentenced to prison. The Italian authorities however let the two others escape on diplomatic passports.

The attack killed four U.S. citizens who were sucked through a hole made by the blast, although the plane safely landed.

April 5, 1986, West Berlin, Germany. An explosion at the "La Belle" nightclub in Berlin, frequented by American soldiers, killed three--2 U.S. soldiers and a Turkish woman-and wounded 191 including 41 U.S. soldiers.

Others, however, were tried including Yassir Shraidi and Musbah Eter, arrested in Rome in August 1997 and extradited; and also Ali Chanaa, his wife, Verena Chanaa, and her sister, Andrea Haeusler. Shraidi, accused of masterminding the attack, was sentenced to 14 years in jail. The Libyan diplomat Musbah Eter and Ali Chanaa were both sentenced to 12 years in jail.

Hizballah later claimed they killed Higgins.
December 21, 1988, Lockerbie, Scotland. Pan Am Flight 103 departing from Frankfurt to New York was blown up in midair, killing all 259 passengers and another 11 people on the ground in Scotland. Two Libyan agents were found responsible for planting a sophisticated suitcase bomb onboard the plane. On 14 November 1991, arrest warrants were issued for Al-Amin Khalifa Fahima and Abdel Baset Ali Mohamed al-Megrahi. After Libya refused to extradite the suspects to stand trial, the United Nations leveled sanctions against the country in April 1992, including the freezing of Libyan assets abroad. In 1999, Libyan leader Muammar Gadhafi agreed to hand over the two suspects, but only if their trial was held in a neutral country and presided over by a Scottish judge. With the help of Saudi Arabia's King Fahd and Crown Prince Abdullah, Al-Megrahi and Fahima were finally extradited and tried in Camp Zeist in the Netherlands. Megrahi was found guilty and jailed for life, while Fahima was acquitted due to a "lack of evidence" of his involvement. After the extradition, UN sanctions against Libya were automatically lifted.
January 27, 1989, Istanbul and Ankara, Turkey. Three simultaneous bombings were carried out against U.S. business targets--the Turkish American Businessmen Association and the Economic Development Foundation in Istanbul, and the Metal Employees Union in Ankara.

32/ Indianapolis Colts Justin Harrell DT Tennessee
Thanks Rome, have any supporting material (link) that says they are looking that way?
Answer:
This looks good as a whole but there are a few things to take into consideration.
1. Pittsburgh has expressed a huge ammount of intrest in Darelle Revis and he will not slip to the Pats.
2. In that case Polouszny slips to the Bengals and Beason will go to the Patriots as their Linebackers are getting old.
3. Tampa loves Calvin way too much and I personall see them swapping picks with the Lions to insure they get him. Lions will then take Gaines Adams.
4. Joe Staley may go to the Chiefs if you see them taking a lineman, Joe Staley is my personal pick, but they really could use a #1 receiver. Meachum, Bowe, and Ginn all possiblities.
5. I dont know why but teams love to take TE's too ealry so the Pathers or Green Bay may reach for Greg Olsen.
6. The Eagles have no real needs and will go with the best player on the board. So good call there, although they may want to add stability to an injury prone line.
*** Frayne its 3 wideouts in 5 years . . . Mike Williams, Roy Williams, and Charles Rogers. Harrington and Ernie Sims went somewhere in between.

Question:
Why is the almighty lord punishing these good christian states by sending tornados to destroy them?
Twisters tear up parts of 4 states; 8 killed in Arkansas By JON GAMBRELL, Associated Press Writer
3 minutes ago
DAMASCUS, Ark. - Violent storms unleashed tornadoes, high winds and hail in four central states and killed eight people in Arkansas, including a teenager who died when a tree fell into her bedroom as she slept.
The storms late Thursday and early Friday ripped off roofs and toppled train cars near Kansas City, Mo.; pelted parts of Oklahoma with hail; and knocked over tents at a popular open-air market in east Texas.
Answer:
Everyone born in this world has to die one day. Death for a person will come in different way. It may happen to a person as a natural death or accident or due to natural calamity.
If people dint die we wont have place to live in this world.

ALL OF THOSE HISTORICALLY BLACK COLLEGES OFFER MINORITY SCHOLARSHIPS FOR WHITES
http://people.bu.edu/colrepub/Caucasian%20Achievement%20a nd%20Recognition%20Scholarship.html
SO WHY ARE BE MAD?
MINORITY SCHOLARSHIPS SIMPLY ASSIST IN DIVERSIFYING COLLEGES
I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST WHITE SCHOLARSHIPS, AS A MATTER OF FACT I HAVE RAN ACROSS A LOT. THEY ARE SIMPLY MORE SPECIFIC. LIKE A GERMAN SCHOLARSHIP, ITALIAN ETC. YOU HAVE TO KNOW WHAT COUNTRY UR ANCESTORS COME FROM.
ALSO, PPL PINPOINT MINORITY SCHOLARSHIPS BASED ON RACE, BUT THEY DON'T CONSIDER ALL THE OTHER SCHOLARSHIPS THAT ARE FOR MINORITIES, LIKE AGE, GENDER, SEXUAL ORIENTATION, DISABILITIES ETC.
ALSO, I'M BLACK, AND #2 IN MY CLASS AND I'M NOT GOING TO COLLEGE WITH SCHOLARSHIPS. I'M GETTING GRANTS BECAUSE I'M POOR. THOSE GRANTS ARE OPEN TO ANYONE IF THEY APPLY, THEY DON'T EVEN ASK FOR UR RACE. ((SEE NOT EVERYONE PROFITS FROM MINORITY SCHOLARSHIPS))
GOOD LUCK WITH COLLEGE HOPE U FIND SOMETHING U LIKE
A LOT OF THOSE COLLEGES OFFER **FULL RIDES** AS SCHOLARSHIPS

Which Southern states would you prefer? Not prefer? Why?
Question:
I prefer:
-TEXAS: It's home, and it's way cooler than any other state! The people are the friendliest, and we can fly our flag the same height as the U.S. flag! How cool are we?!
-Mississippi: laid-back, genuine Southern hospitality, boiled peanuts
-Georgia: the mountains, beaches, and boiled peanuts...again
-Tennessee: a lot to do in such a small state, great history and music heritage, true hospitality.
-N. Carolina. The most beautiful mountains east of the Rockies, the Outer Banks, Piedmont, etc.
Do not prefer:
-Kentucky, by far! Rude, sour, impolite people everywhere I've been in that state (cities and towns alike,) plus most of it is literally dirty and littered (from Central City in the west to Louisville to London in the southeast.)
-Florida: same reasons as Kentucky, plus the dumpy old tourist traps and high taxes.
-Arkansas: Arkan-what? What would it be without Northwest Arkansas?
Answer:
North Carolina is a great state.
Beautiful mountains and beaches. Best of both worlds.
