Another Apple announcement coming

By: Ina Fried
Topics: Apple

With the digital ink barely dry from this week's announcements, Apple Computer said Friday that it will have more news next week.

In an invitation to reporters, Apple said it will hold a press conference on the eve of next week's PhotoPlus Expo 2005 in New York.

The company promises to "unveil Apple's latest pro innovations," at the event, which is scheduled for noon at the Javits Convention Center.

No official word on what to expect, but Think Secret reports that new Power Macs are coming soon.

THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT ANY....A N Y....OF THE HEALTHY, LATE-TERM BABIES WOULD BE EASILY ADOPTED.

TO ABORT A HEALTHY, POST-24 WEEK BABY IS MURDER!(Should legally be.)

CAN ANY OF YOUR "PRO-CHOICE" FOLKS MORALLY DISPUTE THAT ?

(Set aside the issue of the unhealthy babies....I'm specifically talking about HEALTHY BABIES THAT ARE VIABLE OUTSIDE THE WOMB.)

by ALBrainTrust10 December 7, 2009 12:54 AM EST: That's right Lefty... label all those who are Pro-Life conservative terrorists.

Fact is I was adopted...2 days after my birth. Pre Roe (Thank God!). My biological mother was single. Today she would have/could have aborted me. In 1961, adoption was the main option. Then along came Roe and golly, abortion became the birth control of choice.

The story today is Carhart and Late-Term abortions. My point is what about the healthy babies who are aborted after 24 weeks (viability.)

Maybe the FBI could investigate if that constitutes homocide???

Bravo Dr. Carhart for taking up the cause to provide reproductive health to women who need abortions, in spite of the "religious" nutbag terrorists who continue to threaten! Hopefully, there will be more who join you in refusing to be intimidated by the threat of violece.

THIS "DR" ABORTS BABIES WITHOUT.....W I T H O U T ... HEALTH PROBLEMS AFTER 28 WEEKS!!!!!!!.....THAT IS MURDER!!!!!!!!!

That story should be read as "If an irresponsible woman wants abortion, come to this doctor."
Having a child is not about easier choices, once pregnant there are no easy choices. Of course she had a nervous breakdown!
If you ever look at abortion as an easier choice, then you are lost and misled.
It is much more difficult to raise children, but it is easier on the soul.
Take it from someone who knows, never choose abortion.
Choose who you want to have sex with, but with that, comes responsibility.

by jmca2009 December 5, 2009 1:19 PM EST: To skeezix06:

I have read your last 5 posts on this article and you are incoherent, please try to get a grip on the present and read your stuff before posting.

P.S Abortion is killing a human being, plain and simple.

Child is born - starves to death .... NO PROBLEM

They had all the votes and 5 supreme court judges were appointed by conservative presidents. The truth is they don't want this issue to go away, if it did they would loose the so-calle religious right.

Dr. Leroy Carhart does very noble and much needed work in this country.

He performs legal abortions and faces acceptance with many.

I defend his right to perform abortions.

There will be no judgement by our creator against him. It is all made up by terrorist radicals who call themselves Christians....all phony and incapable of speaking with God in their heart on this subject.

by gearhead1000 December 5, 2009 8:46 AM EST

Sorry libertards, you douchenozzles still win in the murder department. More life lost with abortions each year then with war. Add them up sycophants! Congatz!!!!!!!!!
+extra bonus for unborn child NOT HAVING A CHOICE. It is impossible to think of a more defenseless creature then an unborn child. Bravo!!!!!

But it is just a mass of cells right? Please do tell then how the majority of these late term abortions would survive outside the womb with machine support to become viable children

ABORTIONIST = THE ULTIMATE SHEEP

by skeezix06 December 5, 2009 9:29 AM EST: Apples to oranges. Your argument doesn't hold up.

If you insist on going that route, a more honest assessment/comparison would be the statistics of the number of women who give live birth during the year plus the number of abortions for the total number of pregnancies versus the number of living soldiers in the mideast that year plus the number of soldiers lost during the year for the total number of soldiers.

But then again, I guess honesty is too much to expect...
