Video Contest

This one ends December 31st.

Make a video. And add for RotH, an argument arguing for a viewpoint I've expressed (or a refutation of a contrary viewpoint), a dramatization of this post, whatever.

Details TBA (if I decide to do this).

Contests

The contests ended over 24 hours ago. No submissions.

I gave you over a month.

I still have readers, right?

A few notices

Greetings all,

I've called Rep. Charlie Gonzalez about an hour ago and they were
not aware of this situation yet. Please call your congressperson
and request a follow-up!

"Cynthia McKinney & Spirit of Humanity Crew captured at sea!"
Cynthia McKinney, former Congresswoman and Green Party Presidential
Candidate along with the Free Gaza mission is captured and kidnapped
by Israel on the high seas!
Press Release here w/details:

ustice-boat-kidnaps-human-rights-workers-confiscates-medicine-toys-a
nd-olive-trees

The media is not covering this yet either. If you have contacts at
any media outlet, please pass this along.

202-224-3121 is the general switch board for the US Congress.

Please call/write to help the immediate release of all 21 members of
the Free Gaza mission.

President Obama told Israel to allow humanitarian and reconstruction
aid to enter the country and this is how Israel responds?

Update: Associated Press is reporting that Israel took the boat,
cargo, and passengers to Israel for searching and plan on releasing
the people to immigration. How can Israel capture people in
international waters and search them? Where is the enforcement of
international maritime law?

Sincerely,

Abortion is Not Health Care

July 1, 2009 Dear subscruer, I need you to act now to stop the biggest attempt to force taxpayer funded abortion on-demand on the American people. Please write your Representatives today and tell them to respect your conscience and explicitly prohibit taxpayer-funded abortion as a part of health care reform! All Pro-Life Americans must act today to save the lives of thousands of unborn boys and girls who will fall prey to abortions courtesy of our pro-abortion Congress and President. Lives that will be lost using your very own hard-earned tax dollars. President Obama has clearly stated that he supports taxpayer-funded abortions as part of his health care reform. In his speech to the Planned Parenthood Action Fund in July of 2008, President Obama stated that in his mind "reproductive care is essential care, basic care, so it is at the center, the heart of the [health care] plan that I propose." When asked for clarification later, an Obama spokesman said that “reproductive care included abortion." In the current House health care reform bill, Nancy Pelosi and her pro-abortion friends have left the door open for Secretary Kathleen Sebelius and her unelected pro-abortion bureaucrats to define abortion as part of “reproductive care,” just as Hillary Clinton has already done at the State Department. We cannot allow pro-abortion legislators to leave this door open. Click here to tell your Representatives to explicitly ban taxpayer-funding of abortion as part of health care reform. Tell them you don't want your tax dollars to pay for abortions! And make sure you forward this e-mail to all your friends and family. We need to make sure every voice is heard in this fight. Thank you for all you do in the fight to protect unborn boys and girls. For Life, Marjorie Dannenfelser Susan B. Anthony List President 703-875-3370 www.sba-list.org P.S.

Also, Friday is the deadline for all contests is Thursday at noon EST.

100th Post!

We've finally made it to 100 posts. 165 posts to go. Still no subscribers. I know you're out there!

And the deadline for the contests is approaching as well. Noon, July 2rd, EST. No later.

/me taps foot.

Remember, since nobody's submitted anything yet, your chances of winning are quite high if you submit anything*.

*anything that follows the rules.

Contests

Okay, it looks like I have to put in a deadline for the logo and slogan ideas. Without them, I can't sell merchandise. All submissions must be in by noon, Eastern Standard Time, on June 2nd.

Don't leave me hanging, guys!

Slogan

I am also going to have a slogan contest. All applicable rules are carried over from the logo contest.

Logo

I am going to hold a logo contest for Restraint of the Heartless. This will be a logo for the blog, not me. The logo must:

1. ...include only three colors. From top to bottom they must be: white, green, black. Bonus points for incorporating them into the design.
2. ...be relatively simple, preferably easy to make into a favicon.
3. ...represent what this blog is and stands for.
4. ...represent this blog in a positive light.

What's in it for you? The winner will recieve recognition in a blog entry, get their logo on the site, recieve a free copy of any book I will write, and I will answer any six questions (s)he asks me, provided they are not too personally revealing.
