The Stock City No. 1 was recently ruled out due to back [url=http://www.palmexpo.in/jordansforsale.aspx]jordans shoes for sale[/url] injury.<br />Big Important Story of the Day: Remember that Tampa cake walk the American soccer team enjoyed Friday to commence World Cup qualifying? Well, tonight will be nothing of the sort. Jurgen Klinsmanns men will be smack up against tonight when they meet Guatemala at the Estadio Nacional Mateo Flores in Guatemala City.<br />Ahead on the blog today*: Lots on the U.S.-Guatemala match, on the men involved and the silly politics of the TV situation. (The game is available only on pay-per-view; I mean, what is this, boxing?). Plus lots more from the EUFA European Championship in Poland and Ukraine. But if youve been watching the blog over the last few days, you knew that, didnt you?<br />What we should all be watching on TV:<br />Greece-Czech Republic, noon ET, ESPN<br />Poland-Russia, 2:45 p.m. ET, ESPN<br />El Salvador-Mexico, 9:30 p.m., Telemundo<br />Guatemala-United States, 10 p.m., pay-per-view<br />RASNoD: Amy Rodriguez<br />Twitter daps: L.A.

I was teaching sociology at the time and, if I took the spirit of the law seriously, I should not even talk about such things. And I did know of some teachers who were cautious when approaching this area - there was self censorship going on. So free speech should be an absolute we should not mess about with.beatroothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11242716221133886807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13112593.post-1140729511108431682006-02-23T22:18:00.000+01:002006-02-23T22:18:00.000+01:00Well, exactly.

The only thing worse than the EU is Poland trying to get along by herself. <BR/><BR/>Henry: I agree being reticent is not what humanity needs at the moment. We need more free speech, not less. But editors do have to decide what to publish and what not to. And everyday we decide that some story is not worth getting into trouble about. Where I work we have to make lots of those types of decisions...like Monday we did the t-shirt story...yet another one about freedom of speech that featured gays. But we did it. <BR/><BR/>next week, maybe we wouldn't. <BR/><BR/>but on a blog we can do everything. That's why I like blogs.beatroothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11242716221133886807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13112593.post-1140727541124688402006-02-23T21:45:00.000+01:002006-02-23T21:45:00.000+01:00beatroot,No, it's not Roman Giertych, although I d...beatroot,<BR/>No, it's not Roman Giertych, although I do support his fervent opposition to Poland's entry in the EU.

As I said in the post, I heard first about the campaign in November, but have not seen anyone wearing one of them - the shrist didn;t get much popularity. But thanks to all the fuss in Lublin, I expect to see a few more now...beatroothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11242716221133886807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13112593.post-1140650589243846792006-02-23T00:23:00.000+01:002006-02-23T00:23:00.000+01:00People who wear such provocative T shirts run the ...People who wear such provocative T shirts run the risk of getting beat up on the street.
