<title>Will I end up with a hair transplant like Senator Joe Biden?</title>
<link>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2066627/posts</link>
<description>I have a large bald area in the crown (top/back) with more hair in the front, but still thinning with a high hairline. I am concerned that a hair transplant in my case will show significant improvements in the front but I&#x26;#x92;ll still have a large bald spot on top/back. Here&#x26;#x92;s an example of my concern about hair transplantation - Sen. Joe Biden. He looks like he&#x26;#x92;s had a hair transplant (if you compare now to old photos) and looks pretty good in front. But when his head is tipped forward, the top and back are quite sparse compared to...</description>

<title>Is 40 Really the New 20? What Sex and The City Doesn&#x26;#x27;t Say (Spoilers)</title>
<link>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2025310/posts</link>
<description>&#x26;#x93;Is 40 really the New 20?&#x26;#x94; asks Fox News, reviewing the Sex And The City hoopla that seemed to overwhelm everyone this weekend. &#x26;#x93;Pop culture expert and Party Girl author Anna David joins us to weigh in on the phenomenon&#x26;#x85;&#x26;#x94; And the burning question is, what do you make of this revolutionary idea that a woman can be single in her 30s, 40s, even 50s, and it&#x26;#x92;s not shameful, it&#x26;#x92;s fantastic? Interesting. Let&#x26;#x92;s explore this revolutionary idea. How did Sex And The City make it okay to be single? After Anna David addresses how threatening this idea is to men&#x26;#x97;it...</description>

<title>SUVs plunge toward &#x26;#x27;endangered&#x26;#x27; list</title>
<link>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2020720/posts</link>
<description>Jorge Fernandez strolls across the used-car parking lot littered with dozens upon dozens of sport utility vehicles the size of small tugboats. With gas at $4 a gallon, many have sat there since last summer. &#x26;#x22;The cars are literally just sitting, and it doesn&#x26;#x27;t matter how much you sell them for,&#x26;#x22; Fernandez says of the SUVs and trucks nobody wants anymore. Fernandez, a wholesale auto dealer who has been in the business for more than 20 years, says SUV owners are hit especially hard. The really large ones with V-8 engines that can get as little as 12 miles per...</description>

<description>Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them. Have you ever wondered why, if both the Democrats and the Republicans are against deficits, we still have deficits? Have you ever wondered why, if all the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, we still have inflation and high taxes? You and I don&#x26;#x92;t propose a federal budget. The president does. You and I don&#x26;#x92;t have the Constitutional authority to vote on appropriations. The House of Representatives does. You and I don&#x26;#x92;t write the tax code, Congress does. You and I don&#x26;#x92;t set...</description>

<title>Classical Proportions, Modern Practicality: A Style That Makes Sense
</title>
<link>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2005911/posts</link>
<description>I have always associated classical architecture with gravitas -- the large imposing columns and pediments that grace the front of serious places, like courthouses and banks. It hasn&#x26;#x27;t seemed a living tradition that can inform land-use planning and the architecture of everyday life. But that was before I interviewed several architects who describe themselves as &#x26;#x22;modern classicists.&#x26;#x22; They espouse a practical, no-nonsense approach to design that extends beyond individual buildings to encompass neighborhoods and whole towns. They don&#x26;#x27;t limit themselves to the details and proportioning systems used by the original classicists, the builders of ancient Greece and Rome. They also...</description>

<title>Bart Simpson actress gives $10M to Scientology</title>
<link>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/1963110/posts</link>
<description>Longtime Scientologist Nancy Cartwright, also known as the voice of Bart Simpson, last year gave the church $10 million to help spread the word of founder L. Ron Hubbard into other galaxies. It was all part of Scientology&#x26;#x92;s Global Salvage effort, which aims to &#x26;#x93;de-aberrate&#x26;#x94; Earth, meaning to rid mankind of psychology ills and other &#x26;#x93;aberrant&#x26;#x94; behavior. Surprisingly, Nancy, 50, forked over twice as much as the Scientology&#x26;#x92;s most prominent member, Tom Cruise, who only gave $5 million in an installment plan.Also, recent Scientology publications reveal that a host of A-list Scientologists were honored for their generosity at a black-tie...</description>

<link>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/1892185/posts</link>
<description>Vicki Keller was on her way out the door Wednesday when she was asked about her son-in-law&#x26;#x27;s imminent run for the White House. &#x26;#x22;I don&#x26;#x27;t know what there is to say, really,&#x26;#x22; said the Naperville resident as she headed to Des Moines, Iowa, with her husband, Ron. The couple planned to be with Jeri Kehn, Vicki&#x26;#x27;s daughter, at midnight, when Kehn&#x26;#x27;s husband, Fred Thompson, officially planned to become the newest addition to the GOP presidential race. Although published reports said Kehn, 40, has been urging Thompson, 65, to toss his hat in the ring and is active behind the scenes,...</description>

<description>MILWAUKEE, WI (AP) -- A 19-year-old police aide who had his fashionable jeans stolen off of him in front of his home helped police get the drop on three suspects in the case. Police Capt. James Shepard said Sunday that the aide provided a vehicle description and remembered the assailants&#x26;#x27; license plate number after the incident about 12:35 a.m. Saturday. According to police, two males got out of the vehicle, stole the aide&#x26;#x27;s Girbaud jeans and robbed a friend who was with him. But using the information the aide provided, Shepard said, police located the vehicle about 5 p.m. Saturday....</description>

You&#x26;#x27;ll notice the URL I&#x26;#x27;ve listed above takes you to a Message Board called &#x26;#x22;Raging Bull&#x26;#x22;...I found it through Goodle, but I&#x26;#x27;m not too impressed. I&#x26;#x27;m not looking for the magic formula stock market message board, just some place trust-worthy, that maybe some of you get some info.</description>
