  • Yep, im not suprised. I guess he needs to raise more money than hardworking Americans provide in taxes – to send it all abroad as foreign aid.

  • speaking of freedom of press i thought this might interest youAnother Feb 23 (IPS)U.S. Military Assault on MediaU.S. soldiers raided and ransacked the offices of the Iraq Syndicate of Journalists (ISJ) in central Baghdad Tuesday this week. Ten armed guards were arrested, and 10 computers and 15 small electricity generators kept for donation to families of killed journalists were seized.This is not the first time U.S. troops have attacked the media in Iraq, but this time the raid was against the very symbol of it. Many Iraqis believe the U.S. soldiers did all they could to deliver the message of their leadership to Iraqi journalists to keep their mouth shut about anything going wrong with the U.S.-led occupation.”The Americans have delivered so many messages to us, but we simply refused all of them,” Youssif al-Tamimi of the ISJ in Baghdad told IPS. “They killed our colleagues, closed so many newspapers, arrested hundreds of us and now they are shooting at our by raiding our This is the freedom of speech we received.”Some Iraqi journalists blame the Iraqi government.”Four years of occupation, and those Americans still commit such foolish mistakes by following the advice of their Iraqi collaborators,” Ahmad Hassan, a freelance journalist from Basra visiting Baghdad told IPS.There is a growing belief in Iraq that U.S. allies in the current Iraqi government are leading the U.S. military to raid places and people who do not follow Prime Minister Nouri directions…..The incident occurred just two days after the Iraqi Union covering journalists received formal recognition from the government. The new status allowed the Syndicate access to its previously blocked bank account, and it had just purchased new computers and satellite equipment.”Just at the point when the Syndicate achieves formal recognition for its work as an independent body of professionals, the American military carries out a brutal and unprovoked assault,” International Federation of Journalists General Secretary Aidan White said in a statement. “Anyone working for media that does not endorse U.S. policy and actions could now be at risk.”The raid was a “shocking violation of rights,” White said. “In the past three years more than 120 Iraqi journalists, many of them Syndicate members, have been killed, and now their union has been turned over in an unprovoked act of intimidation.”….”The Americans and their Iraqi government followers are destroying social activities and civil unions so that no group can oppose their crimes and plans,” 55-year-old lawyer Hashim Jawad of the Iraqi Lawyers Union in Baghdad told IPS. “The press is our remaining lung to breathe democracy in this country and now it is being targeted.”….The Press Emblem Campaign (PEC), an independent humanitarian association based in Geneva which seeks to strengthen legal protection and safety of journalists around the world also strongly condemned the U.S. military raid.The Brussels Tribunal…lists the names, dates and circumstances in which 191 media professionals of Iraqi nationality have been killed.The PEC and the other watchdogs have requested the Iraqi government to launch an immediate inquiry into the attack.”I only wish the U.S. administration and our government would stop lying about freedom in Iraq,” Mansoor Salim, a retired journalist, told IPS. “How stupid we were to have believed their statements about freedom. I admit that I was one of the fools.”

  • Well, the easiest thing to do would be to get a dvd recorder, major brands like sony make them. They work just like a vcr. However, these are a bit pricey ($200-300). What I would recommend, if you have the know how, is to install a tv tuner in your computer, these cost about $50 and you could probably fit a whole lot more stuff onto the dvd. If you decide to go with a dvd recorder, here is a decent one that i found and its fairly cheap

    I know about the region thing, but if you record using the dvd recorder, you can also play them on the same dvd recorder.
