New Bowling Rules Supplemental Rules for Bowling If you holler "overs!" before the ball passes the arrows, you get to throw the ball over, unless of course, you get a strike. In which case, you can renege on the "overs". When your team is about 10 marks down in the 8th or 9th frame, you can invoke the rule "First Team Through Bowling Wins the Game", and your team still has a chance. After a member of the opposing team bowls 4 strikes in a row, he/she must bowl the next 4 frames blindfolded. If he/she continues to strike, his/her shoelaces will be tied together for 2 frames. When you leave the 10-pin and you know you can't make the spare, but another member of your team can, invoke the "Designated Bowler" rule. After you have 4 splits in one game, you may say "Kings X" and take those 4 frames over. However, if you split on the 2nd time around, you accept it. After all, "Fair is Fair". If your ball goes in the gutter and jumps back onto the lane, knocking dow pins, by golly, you get them! That's much harder than to knock them down the conventional way. Good bowling should be recognized. A ball should be declared dead when you bowl 3 games without a strike. It shall be the owners privilege to decide on the disposition of said dead ball - Burial at Sea, Dropped from an airplane over a live volcano, wholesale Links jewelry or a simple burial in the city dump. For a small fee, a league officer can be bribed to deliver a short eulogy.

I think that what happen to new orleans was horrible. I also think that in time God has a plan and will restore New Orleans. Although there is pain now in the future you'll surviver will be able to look back and say "I made it." Things happen for a reason and just wait because what God has he has for New Orleans. So just believe and in the end you'll be rewarded for all you've been though. I wish New Orleans all the best in the future to come. Don't forget that God has not forgot about his people.

As an award winning jouranlist, with an extensive vocabulary,it is diffcult to believe that the only word you could use to describe these poor souls is "refugee."

As an cognizant AfroAmerican, I think President Bush shoud be rapidly impeached due to his inability to execute responsible actions concerning the New Orlean's devastation. In my opinion, Bush is incapable in running America. He needs to have a serious discussion concerning race in America. My hope is that Americans willl challage his actions.

This hurricane "Katrina" has caused us to prove our faith in, and love for The Lord Jesus Christ, as we show our love, respect and service to each other. Those who use this tragedy to exploit others, beware. God often uses natural disasters to show HIS sovereignty. Keep living!

Let this tradegy serve as a warning to all Black people in America that the Government that we support through our tax dollars has defaulted on her her promise to Black America. Now is the time for Black America to turn within and establish stronger systems of self reliance in in Media and Business. We have to tell our own story to the world or risk having someone else do it for us. Throughout history America has shown Blacks her worst while seeking our best or that we suffer peacefully and accept their definition of who and what we are. 99.9% of the Folks affected by Katrina were just trying to survive. Well America, there is a God in heaven (wheather you believe it or not)who sees your arrogance and is prepairing your judgement.

This is a tragic reminder to those of us who think that we, as a people, have achieved equality in the country. This is a wake up call for those pastors at the mega-churches who encouraged their massive congregations to vote for Bush "on moral grounds". Witness the "morality" of America.
