EGYPT – After days of delay for the results of its presidential runoff, Egypt has announced Mohammed Morsi as the winner of the election and the country’s new president, the Associated Press reports.

Morsi, the candidate from the Muslim Brotherhood, faced off with former Prime Minister Ahmed Shafiq after the two candidates collected the most votes in the first round of Egypt’s presidential election. (more…)

For the purpose of this thread I want to focus on research of “Lead SPD Investigator” Detective Chris Serino.

This photograph was taken on the day of Friday March 16th during and exclusive interview with the Orlando Sentinel.  This same date, later in the evening (6pm), is when the Scheme Team went to Mayor Triplett’s office to listen to the 911 Tapes and pressured Sanford Mayor Jeff Triplett into getting the tapes.   The tapes that Bill Lee had stated SHOULD NOT be released during the ongoing investigation.
With that in mind, and looking at the pictures, what do you think that Police Chief Lee, and Chris Serino were doing at the moment this picture was taken while accompanied by reporters from the Orlando Sentinel.? (more…)

Stop What You Are Doing.   The progs have spoken, and now they are wondering if you, well, ….   you,…. you ugly over-consuming American,  should be allowed to have air conditioning?  Put down that coffee and strain buttercups for your more sustainable beverages.  Immediately dispatch yourself outside to forage for twigs, nuts and Treebark for breakfast.  Hurry up…. we’ll wait….
NY Times: Should Rich Countries Redistribute Their Air-Condtioning To Poor Nations ?  – Temperatures in New York City have pushed toward 100 degrees this week, and air-conditioners strained the power grid (thanks in part to stores with their doors open). Meanwhile the demand for coolant gases, especially in rapidly developing countries like India, threatens to accelerate global warming.
Is it a good goal for everyone in the world to have access to air-conditioning — like clean water or the Internet? Or is it an unsustainable luxury, which air-conditioned societies should be giving up or rationing?  (read article)

Treepers who have been around a while will remember much of this conversation from the Spring of last year.    I had every intention of writing a discussion thread for today’s Egyptian election result; but after thinking about it, I decided to go back and look at what we initially predicted last year.  Well, suffice to say once again, the logical approach of analysis wins once more over the irrational emotion of the progressive left.

During the uprising in Egypt the media claimed the Egyptian Military was an arbitrary altruistic endeavor, protecting the ‘people’ of Egypt from a ruthless dictator.
Yet no one seemed to ever ask how the allegiance of said military was able to switch directions so fast from supporter of all things Mubarak to his adversary and proponent of the democratic citizenry. (more…)

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

After shooting Zhen Bo Liu on a dark Wilmington street, the gunmen stole his food delivery of chicken wings and shrimp fried rice and shared the meal among their accomplices at a nearby house. After eating, they returned to view Liu’s body and rummage through his car.

“Kill Now, Die Later”

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — Three of the four suspects charged as adults in connection to the murder of a Chinese food delivery driver are no strangers to trouble. A 15-year-old boy has also been charged, but information on him is protected, because he is a juvenile.
The 15-year-old and Cornell Dwayne Haugabook Jr., 20, are charged with murder and armed robbery of Zhen Bo Liu, 60, who was found dead in a car near 13th and Queen Streets June 14. Investigators say Liu was delivering food for a Chinese restaurant when he was killed and robbed of his delivery. Investigators say the suspects then took the $48 worth of food home and ate it.
