Chronic noise exposure has been shown to produce headaches, fatigue, nausea and sleeplessness. Memory and cognitive functioning are impaired by chronic or excessive noise as is brain chemistry. The negative effects of noise also cause psychological stress. Irritability, mood changes, distraction, poor judgment and feelings of helplessness can result.

Generally, noise triggers flight relex. In our brain noise is interpreted as a sign of danger. A Yale University study looked at the effects of noise stress on brain function in monkeys. Results indicate that stress impairs prefrontal cortex cognitive function through its influence (increased emission) on dopamine, a key neurotransmitter.
Dopamine, when supplied as a medication, acts on the sympathetic nervous system, producing effects such as increased heart rate and blood pressure. Fun!

The trolls, to prove the coolness of enhanced interrogation techniques using loud noise, could use the opportunity and sacrficice something more for their country than keyboard time: Allow yourself to be fixed in a chair and to be exposed for 48 hours to your favourite song in a loop (for the Christians: Fred Phelps preaching) at high volume, in permanent lighting. You’d be woken up as soon as you fall asleep, and to add the flavour have some forced exercise under the gentle supervision of a prison guard. It might be less fun when you’re an office slug with a heart condition, but then, sacrifice for your country is sweet, no doubt.

So nevermind, it’s fun, and they’re all guilty after all, aren’t they? Except that they’re not. The army has complained for what they call ‘Mickey Mouse Prisoners’, guys sold to the US or swept up as bystanders in street sweeps. According to the Gitmo fimes only 2% of the inmates were actually caught or seen fighting the US.

You could have known that by 2002 already, if you only wanted, which I doubt.

The fatal systemic flaw, questions of morality or utility aside, of torture is that it puts the justice system on its head. It starts on the presumption of guilt. And that inevitably leads to excess.

Is this a Darfur thread or an Israel-Palestine thread?

PS you statement about hyprocites on the left and jokers on the right is partially true. The jokers are sure on the right.

BAHAHA, yeah, it’s the laws of judaism to attack the rabbi in the temple!!!!

You’re a f*cking lunatic…

Wah, Wah, come on VICTIM, whine some more about how all of the ATHIEST persecute you because you believe the earth is FLAT and 6000 years old, and how they FORCE you to have an abortion!!! Oh wait, they don’t do that – do they? ST*PID C*NT!

You f*ckers attacked the wrong country, left MILLIONS homeless, and Your PAL Osama is still loose…

Spare us the tears, you WHINY PROFESSIONAL VICTIM…..

Your PROJECTION is TIRESOME and BORING ZZZZZzzzzzz……

St*pid C*nt…

We should give the Koranimals who are raping and murdering the poor people of Darfur the following option:

Allow the 2 million refugees to return home, pay the families of the murdered reparations -OR- Pick out YOUR ropes.

(P.S. I KNEW the Left was full of manure when they were incensed about Koranimals in Sudan and made excuses for Saddam…..HYPOCRITES to Left…Jokers on the right… )

Actually Jesus was obedient to the Laws of Judaism. The Pharisees didn’t like the way he criticized their superfluous interpretation of The Law and feared HIS increasing popularity with the people. They portrayed him as a secular revolutionary to Pilate (as the Jews were longing to get out from under the domibation of Rome, this was an easy sell.)

You would propbably be better off taking that cinder block sized “VICTIM” chip off your shoulder and not relying on noted religious errants and distortionists, VVGFU and unbelievable.

And the icing on your religious ignorance – Jerry Falwell was a Biblical literalist – The Vatican is not. Protestants do not believe in transubstantiation, Catholics do. Please don’t cross the street without your mother’s permission….

Good to know.

Again, you’ve missed the point. You can’t point to the Anfal Massacre of 86-88 without asking why didn’t we stop him then.

Weird non-sequitor. So, that’s your last line of defense? When you have been thoroughly debunked and exposed as a shrill preaching hate, your only response is “ooh, look, gays”?

Oh, and for future reference, Jesus was NOT an “obedient Jew”. That is one of the reasons they crucified him. Have you ever read the bible or do you rely on the same “cliff notes” that Bush uses that states “Hate everything non-white and steal everything that you can put your hands on.” I cannot remember who the source is on the notes, either the Vatican or Jerry Falwell. Same difference.

Or maybe you should *narrow* yours, away from the “Rapture-News”, and realize that your wingnuttery LieAThon – ISN’T JOURNALISM!!! But it does show the world what a ST*PID LITTLE C*NT YOU ARE!!

BAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAAAAAA

You mean your WINGNUT PROPAGANDA? BAHAHAHA, please c*nt!!! jUst because you can’t tell the difference between the “Christian-Enquirer” and LEGITIMATE NEWS – don’t EMBARRASS YOURSELF HERE by thinking we don’t know what a st*pid b*tch you are!!!

PUHLEASE, Anorexia guhrl!!! They had to make a special version of DUm Basss just to describe you!!!

Congratulations!! You have provided an excellent source demonstrating your own lack of thoroughness…..Keep up the good work!

Pure PROJECTION of YOUR OWN LACK OF THOROUGHNESS – st*pid c*Nt!

Go peddle your revisionism at s*ck my religious zealot can’t make up my mind if I’m a christian or jewish wingnut dot com!
