Great job Greenpeace, especially on the, "We are sorry you are offended" type apology. Really made your point hit home. /s/

People on net claim that damage is irreparable. But I don't get why? Personally all I see is new tracks formed because of stunt, but I think it should be possible to just cover them with pebbles? Unless the permanent damage being to it's integrity, that's been preserved up to that point.
The most offensive tracks, the one made presumably by their car, outlined in red. Other is there for visitors, so their car can just follow the path already made.
Special security measures are usually implemented for visitors.

Because with the Red Sox not making it into the postseason this year and the Bruins currently sitting in 5th place you guys could use some good news:ninja:.
In other news Americans opinions on gun control have shifted…...backwards.

I wonder if I make a gif will it be in a resolution that's actually visible or will Youtube's auto function mess that up much like everything google has done with Youtube over the last year or so that's been a screw up.

Can Scalia just accept his gold watch and leave already.

sometimes things call for a double facepalm

Double facepalm? More like:

I'm fine with this as long as Scalia agrees to undergo having his asshole stuffed with hummus.

How would they know which hole's the right one, though?

I'm glad Scalia has been consistently tortured by pro-gay marriage rulings clearly trolling him with his own words in their written justifications. Because that's been hilariously wonderfully petty.

@Monkey:
There's a hostage crisis occurring in downtown Sydney Australia that may be tied to ISIS.
My friend was stuck in the building right next to it and was asked to stay inside. He was sending live updates on what was happening. Seems there wasn't much commotion in the building under control but there were cops buzzing all over the place. They were allowed to evacuate just some 10 minutes back from their current building.

So, today things got really heated in México. Today a concert by various bands was supposed to take place in Ayotzinapa so it would help attract attention. A lot of famous bands were gonna play. In the morning students were putting up fences and then some drunks agents (dressed like civilians) came by and started beating them (According to some sources they were coming back from a brothel). Things got heated and numerous clashes happened today. Hostages were taken by each side and well…Someone used a truck to ran over the police.
All this happened in Chilpancingo and a people are hurt and two agents are hospitalized. One of them has brain damage.
I think it's obvious but i condemn all actions by all sides. Damn. I mean, damn.
Edit: And i'm sorry if i haven't been putting up news of Ayotzinapa but work was really stressful last week.

The hostage situation is over after police stormed the cafe. No word yet as to any fatalities or injuries though at least one person was shot (though we don't know their status) and two people were seen getting medical treatment at the scene.

I don't find anything about this being funny in anyway especially given the fact that at least 2 of the hostages were killed.

In order for them to do that they have to understand the difference between Islam and Religious Extremism and stop insisting that incidents like these are something exclusive to Islam as a whole while downplaying the history of exteremism in other religions.

You guys are falling into some well meaning naivete if you think Australia is any different on this issue.

I'd actually be surprised if there really were a country somewhere on the world map where the majority of the citizens and members of the government didn't casually dismiss Islam for the same tired, faulty, and hypocritical reasons people have been doing for years.

According to this recent report Mexico's federal police aren't too shabby with doing evil things either.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/12/14/missing-students-mexico_n_6321866.html
Oh man, the report made by Proceso. It was printed a few weeks ago and it confirms everything we already knew.
Ok, so the version no one is ever printing but it's been rumoured is that the Students tried to take command of a bus to help them get to a march. The problem is that Guerrero is now a place where Black Heroin (not pure) is being produced right now and they said the loca government was in it with the Cartels. The thing is they used Buses to smuggle the heroin…the same bus that the students took. So the cartels thought it was some other cartel and shot them. When they realized it was a mistake they handed them over to the federal agents...and then the students dissapeared.
Of course, this is a rumour but it's really pausible as it would explain the horrid, horrid torture they did on one of the students before the 43 disappeared (i'm not sharing a link to that, it's too, too horrible to watch)
-

Messed up and scary stuff all the same especially with Mexico's federal goverment participating in the murders.
-
Another version is that it was the governor itself that handed the student to the Cartel through the police. I mean, at the heart of it the problem is that the whole government (at all levels) is rotten and rife with corruption and cartel meddling.

, Islamic fundamentalism and the violence it produces is absolutely peerless at this period of time. This doesn't mean violence in general commited by people who happen to be Muslim. It means violence that is perpetrated by people who are motivated for religious reasons to kill people, and naturally it's mixed in with politics to some degree.
-

He was a muslim cleric but still no one would follow him so he had to do it himself which is funny because muslim clerics normally get people to follow their bullshit views without even having to go on a suicide mission themselves lol.

It's at least tied with the violence committed by the CIA.

At least 126 people, mostly children, have been killed in a Taliban assault on an army-run school in the Pakistani city of Peshawar. Can't find any words to comment.
