Considering we're posting on an internet message board, and Ma Bell and her stooges are dead set on trying to piecemeal and ultimately kill the Internet as we know it, this is a rather apt topic for discussion, IMO: Article Folks--this crap needs to stop, and stop fast. It shouldn't matter if you're wanting to access Netflix, Playboy.com, or Huskerboard.com--they should all have the same, unfettered, fast-as-possible-always service. And the infrastructure costs to make this happen are a mere drop in the bucket for Telecom companies--but these costs are being used as a smokescreen so Telco can gouge companies like Google, Netflix, etc. for extra money. In short, Internet in the 21st century is a utility, not unlike water or electricity. But there's not as much profit in utilities as there is for being a service provider, hence their attempts to nickel and dime customers to death.

Huskers fall to #13...after the embarrassment up in Michigan. Full poll here- http://www.avca.org/divisions/division-one-women/poll-10-13-14di/

@CoryGiger #PSU QB McGloin said it's fun going on road and winning big. Goal Saturday is to "try to eliminate that crowd as quickly as possible." Son... that's not something you want to tell Husker fans. We don't get quiet at our house. We get louder as the game goes on. I hope they're up by 14 late in the second half now so we can really, really get loud. It'll make the comeback that much sweeter.

Anyone who’s seen Friday Night Lights knows high school football in Texas is no joke. It’s particularly not a laughing matter in the Dallas suburb of Allen, which just spent $60 million on a lavish new stadium for its high school football team. Read more: http://newsfeed.time...3#ixzz22tKcVHg1

Steven Ratner of CNBC brought this Washington Post article up for discussion this morning. It's interesting in how, based on what each of the GOP campaigns has brought to the public, the deficit is poised to increase substantially, regardless of whoever is elected into office. The article goes on to highlight that in the midst of all of the doublespeak about deficit reduction and the slashing of Federal government staffing, that the only GOP candidate that would put this country in the black is...Ron Paul: So, for all of the doublespeak coming from GOP candidates about deficit reduction, the only GOP candidate that seems to be able to walk the walk is Ron Paul, to the tune of only (yeah, only...) $2.2 trillion. The elephant in the room that isn't GOP-related? Obama's current budget proposal, left untouched with his tax proposals, beats both what Romney and Santorum have put up for plans, as it actually decreases the deficit by $1.2 trillion in the same timeframe. http://www.washingto...pm_business_pop

Come for the information, stay for the derp. Of note: However, it doesn't cover *all* conservative beliefs. Of note: Of course, someone's bound to realize that maybe there's some trolling going on...
