But some users think change.org is out to censor.org. Those who posted popular suggestions for a new investigation into 9/11 or those who suggested abolishing the Federal Reserve claim they got an email saying that their topic had been removed because it "lies outside the scope of the Ideas for Change in America project, which is focused on identifying solutions that we believe can, through a grassroots lobbying effort, receive serious consideration from the Obama administration and/or Congress." If the group censors controversial ideas and handpicks its own top 10, can the result really be called a citizen-generated agenda?
Patty Brisben, of PureRomance.com fame, is back to offer up another tip so we can learn how to avoid a sex slump of our own and master how to bring the romance back after the holiday stress is behind you. Check out her advice below:

You’ll both benefit from feelings of teamwork when you’re able to take a look at the final results of something you took on and accomplished together!

With an all-star cast including Jack Black, Neil Patrick Harris, John C. Reilly, Maya Rudolph, Rashida Jones, and Margaret Cho, "Prop 8 — The Musical" harmoniously chronicles how California came to pass its gay marriage ban.
Jack Black appears as Jesus Christ to point out that the Bible says a lot of interesting things, like you can stone your wife, or sell your daughter into slavery. He says that Prop 8's supporters simply pick and chose teachings from the Holy Book that support their social agenda. And Neil Patrick Harris points out that the gay wedding industry could save the US economy! This is all explained in song of course!
Check out the musical put together by Funny or Die. Do you think satire or song can help change the minds of those who voted to ban gay marriage?
I almost had a panic attack watching this kid's first roller coaster ride. First, he's all psyched because he has no idea what he's in for and mom seems into it. Once he realizes that roller coaster ride means "terror around every corner until we get off," his face changes completely. Poor kid. I was never the same after Space Mountain, either. I feel your pain . . .
