'I direct the Mahdi Army to suspend all its activity for six months, until it is restructured in a way that helps honor the principles for which it was formed," Sadr said in a statement from his stronghold in Najaf.

Or the "rogue elements" just shows how dysfunctional this family of humanity is and why a few good earthquakes would do the whole world better.

Halftime. Good. I need to go to the restroom. Anyone want a beer on my way back?

And the storm will be passing over Miller's Abandoned Goat Farm at 3:21 p.m., the intersection of Rural Route 141 and Digsby's Path at 3:27 and Woodson Pond at 3:29:23.
