UPS Driver Used “Terrorist” As Name Signed For Package
UPS Driver Used “Terrorist” As Name Signed For Package
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. — A UPS driver wrote “terrorist” as the signed name for a delivered package, according to the UPS Web site.
Blbar Singh, a Sikh, signed for the package that was delivered to his son’s house.
The family was looking on the UPS Web site for their second package that had not yet come, when they stumbled across the “signed by” section of the package screen.
They found that it was labeled “terrorist.”
I sincerely hope that UPS drops that temp agency, and that the agency fires the jackass who labeled this man falsely

Operation Three Little Piggies, or ObL’a Fifth Column Comes Out
Operation Three Little Piggies
America’s Fifth Column in the War on America has shown its face. “Operation Three Little Piggies” is a Conservative Plan to destroy Detriot, the American Auto industry, the UAW and by extension, what is left of America’s Economy
But, as ObL said,Objective: To use humor to turn public opinion against the UAW, Chrysler, and General Motors acceptance of TARP Bailout Funds.
Description: Develop, create, and send “Three Little Piggies” images of UAW President Ron Gettelfinger, GM CEO Rick Wagoner, and Chrysler CEO Robert Nardelli documenting their day to day official whereabouts in real time, quantifying the $ spent to support their daily activities and mode of transportation.
Solicit from the public photographs of the Three Little Piggies in action.
Post their daily schedule visually on the net in delightfully amusing graphic depiction.
To blog the “Three Little Piggies” operation daily throughout the blogosphere.
To develop and implement widespread internet use of images, games, and tweets related to the game “Where in the World are the Three Little Piggies Today.”
I see these “Conservatives” as doing ObL’s Bidding. I’m calling you out on your seditious actions
“I concentrate on the importance of continuing holy war actions against America, militarily and economically, and America is retreating with God’s help,” he said in a videotape sent anonymously by air courier from Pakistan to Qatar-based Al-Jazeera television, which aired it in full Thursday night.“This economic hemorrhaging continues until today, but requires more blows. And the youth should try to find the joints of the American economy and hit the enemy in these joints, with God’s permission.”

With the WGA strike over, and a SAG strike looming in the coming year over “new media” aka internet streaming this should come as no surprise
The AMPTP HAS YET TO PAY WRTIERS RESIDUALS FOR INTERNET STREAMS. That’s right. Those full streaming epispodes of The Colbert Report or The Daily Show, The Office and so on? The WRITERS ARE NOT GETTING PAID. and why? “too difficult”
Today, the Writers Guild of America, West, confirmed what they’d warned about a few weeks ago: that the media conglomerates of the Association of Motion Picture and Television Producers – the AMPTP – have failed to comply with the contract negotiated to end the Guild’s 100-day strike by not paying residuals for writers’ work that is reused on New Media. These payments were the key issue of the WGA strike so the WGAW said today it’s starting “an aggressive contract enforcement program – including legal action – to ensure that the AMPTP companies make good on their obligations”. To that end, the WGAW filed for arbitration today against the AMPTP over residuals for programs sold as electronic downloads (aka ESTs, or Electronic Sell-Through) involving the sale of video content via the Internet which allows the purchaser to keep a copy of a program permanently on a computer hard drive or other device. In addition to taking legal action, the WGAW is undertaking a campaign of extensive member outreach and education on contract enforcement issues so that writers can help monitor the progress of enforcing the 2008 Minimum Basic Agreement.And, how did hte AMPTP repsond? By calling them liars“Our agreement with the companies on material released to EST covers feature films produced after July 1, 1971, and television programs produced after 1977,” said John Bowman, chair of the 2007 WGA Negotiating Committee. “The companies have reneged on this agreement and are taking the position that only programs produced after February 13, 2008 are covered by the new provision. This may be their deal with the DGA, but that was never our agreement. Every proposal we made during negotiations made clear our position that library product was covered, and the AMPTP never objected to that position. The Guild will not allow this to stand.”…Said WGAW President Patric Verrone: “The companies know what is being streamed, and they regularly announce how successful they are in generating online advertising revenue, so there’s no reason for them not to honor the agreement they made with us.”
