Castro mocks rumors of his death in TV interview... 2007-09-22 14:33:00 You never know what people could plan or tape something like this planning to fake people out. I don't know... it just seems fishy to me. I want to believe that he is alive as this insists but I am just not sure. Poor Perez. This is not looking good.But apart from laughing off rumors of his death, Castro offered no details about his health, much less whether he might return to power. "Well, here I am ... nobody knows when they will die," Castro said in the interview, which interrupted regular television programming. The lack of pictures of the veteran revolutionary leader since June 5 had fueled a flood of speculation about his health and possible death.

Pacific Northwest meets New York! 2007-09-22 14:27:00 Nice.....NEW YORK — Anyone walking into the cavernous restaurant on a Midtown Manhattan corner can't miss the flotilla of copper-glazed salmon figurines that hang from the ceiling in perpetual spawn. The flying salmon are complemented by an assortment of oysters, shrimp, mussels, all laid out on ice like vacationers lounging in the sand. All this, plus the name of the restaurant — Wild Salmon — makes it clear what this place is about. It's a seafood joint. But Wild Salmon is something else, too. It's a Pacific Northwest concept restaurant. Be sure to stop by for more later... ...

Canadian shoppers swarm into Washington State... 2007-09-22 13:53:00 I dont think I should have to say Washington State... but everyone seems to assume it is DC. No. This is great news though.

Perez is holding fast... 2007-09-22 13:46:00 Perez is STILL saying that Castro is dead and it is all 'smoke and mirrors'. Amazing!Call us delusional or a conspiracy theorist, but….

23 Album Covers that Changed Everything! 2007-09-22 02:38:00 Interesting bit...Long before MTV, performers expressed the visual dimension of their art through their album covers.

But the 1960’s spirit of exploration and experimentation found its way into music and, consequently, onto album covers.READ MORE...Be sure to stop by for more later... ...

Bloomberg Won’t Listen to Ahmadinejad 2007-09-22 02:32:00 I am kinda interested in what he is going to say... and I would bet many Americans are and there is nothing wrong with that. The only way we are going to relax these crazed tensions is by listening a little. I would never expect our leaders to go though.President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran is scheduled to give a speech on Monday afternoon at Columbia University, but Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg won’t be in the audience. The mayor weighed in again today on the controversy over the Iranian leader’s visit.In his weekly radio call-in program on WABC-AM, the mayor told the host, John Gambling: He’s not going downtown. I think, hopefully, he understands why not, but I just think it would be totally inappropriate. But he’s not going to go. Columbia –- look, it’s a university. They have the right to invite who they want. I personally am not going to get involved in criticizing them because I think that’s a slippery slope. Universities operate unto themselves. I’m not on the b ...
