We have reached a new low -- iPod jeans... 2007-09-17 11:14:00 This is lame. I mean how much further can we take this? I understand that if I had an iPod I would probably understand --- but I have never wanted one and never will get one. To think that someone would probably fork over money for jeans that complement your iPod make me feel nauseated....those style-crazed folks at Levi's did, and the creative response was the RedWire DLX Jeans--jeans with a built-in iPod dock and remote control "nipple."Be sure to stop by for more later... ...

Vid- Ahmadinejad on Israel and the Holocaust 2007-09-17 10:39:00 We have had enough warning about how this man thinks --- but how do we properly handle this situation? This is a real tough one.In this September 12 interview with Jon Snow of British Television's Channel 4, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad makes it quite clear where he stands on Israel and the Holocaust. He says what he means and we have to assume he means what he says.

Verizon unhappy with 700MHz open access requirements, sues FCC 2007-09-17 08:29:00 How would this LIMIT anything? When the Federal Communications Commission issued its final set of rules for the upcoming 700MHz spectrum auction, reaction was mixed. Open access proponents were disappointed that the FCC failed to include all four of Google's open access suggestions, while the telecoms bemoaned the fact that two of them were included. Verizon is taking its irritation over the FCC's rules to the courts, asking the US District Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit to set them aside.Under the FCC's rules, whoever wins the spectrum auction must allow consumers to use any device and any lawful application on their networks. After the FCC's decision, Verizon quickly made its position clear. "Imposing any such requirements in the competitive wireless market would reduce the revenue the government will receive from the spectrum auction and limit the introduction of new and innovative wireless services," the company said shortly after the announcement. Despite that, Verizon ap ...

Clinton's "American Health Choices Plan" = $110 billion per year 2007-09-17 01:52:00 Bring it on. I am all for everyone's basic right to health care.With a price tag of about $110 billion per year, Clinton's "American Health Choices Plan" represents her first major effort to achieve universal health coverage since 1994, when the plan she authored during her husband's first term collapsed.Mrs. Clinton’s purpose, they said, is not only to cover the 47 million people who are uninsured but to improve the quality of health care and make insurance more affordable for those who already have it.The goal of Mrs. Clinton’s plan, to be outlined in a speech in Des Moines, is similar to that of the ill-fated plan that she and President Bill Clinton pushed in 1993 and 1994. But advisers to Mrs. Clinton, a Democrat from New York, said Saturday that she would try to avoid the perception that she was advocating a bureaucratic, big-government solution. That perception, promoted by conservative Republicans and the insurance industry, sank the Clinton plan in 1994.Be sure to stop ... Health

$1.1 million to $1.3 million for Willamette meteorite 2007-09-17 01:44:00 Lucky lucky......But Mr. Pitt had not run out of information. He was talking about meteorites.

Once again, as it was at the opening of the museum’s Rose Center for Earth and Space in 2000, the Willamette meteorite is at the center of a brouhaha. An American Indian group in Oregon heard about the auction and accused Mr. Pitt of insensitivity for selling his fragment, which Bonhams, the auction house handling the sale, says has an estimated value of $1.1 million to $1.3 million.Be sure to stop by for more later... ...
