OR Teacher demands to carry gun in school
2007-09-11 14:16:00
I am torn with this ... I want to say let every teacher have a gun... but I know that wouldnt be wise. I think the best solution is to have personell inside the school armed with guns. Essentially school police that actually have guns. Not just non-lethal crap. The stress for this lady must be incredible!A Medford high school teacher is arguing she has the right to carry a concealed semiautomatic pistol to her classes to protect herself from a violent ex-husband in a case certain to set off alarm bells in schools across the state.Be sure to stop by for more later...

Theories abound why Britney sucked ass....
2007-09-11 12:05:00
All of which make sense..."The dance number was spectacular - without her," said our spy at rehearsal. "When the stand-in was rehearsing with the dancers, in the hours they were all waiting for her, it was amazing. Then Britney showed up and refused to do anything. The dancers were supposed to lift and twirl her in the air a few times, and that just wasn't going to happen. The more complicated dance moves had to be erased because she couldn't do them."- “The dancers were texting pals, asking them to pray for them. They were worried.” - “MTV wanted her to wear a corset outfit. It would have looked great and covered a lot of things up, but she hated it and didn’t think it was sexy enough.”Be sure to stop by for more later...

Petraeus Suggest Surge Forces For Another Year
2007-09-11 03:18:00
For some reason I react differently in my mind when I hear this come from Petraeus...The top U.S. general in Iraq outlined plans Monday for the withdrawal of as many as 30,000 troops by next summer, drawing praise from the White House but a chilly reception from anti-war Democrats. Gen. David Petraeus said a 2,000-member Marine unit would return home this month without replacement in the first sizable cut since a 2003 U.S-led invasion toppled Saddam Hussein and unleashed sectarian violence.Be sure to stop by for more later...

Oil jumps to $78 a barrel...
2007-09-11 03:16:00
Get ready to pay out the arse for that sweet lovable crude...Crude oil prices on Tuesday jumped above $78 a barrel as the Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries Opec started to discuss in Vienna a small production increase in an effort to cool high oil prices and reassure industrialised countries. Prices rose to $78.32 a barrel in New York, just below the all-time high of $78.77 a barrel reached in early August, before easing to $77.71. Abdalla el-Badri, Opec secretary general, said on Tuesday the current oil price was “a problem and we will discuss what we can do.”Be sure to stop by for more later...

McCain campaign is coming back?
2007-09-11 03:03:00
I recall very recently people were saying McCain was all but done entirely with this race... but is he coming back while Rudy falls? For the past several months, almost nothing had gone right for Sen. John McCain. His once-leading presidential campaign hemorrhaged top staff and teetered on the brink of bankruptcy. His immigration-reform bill antagonized key conservative constituencies. He tumbled precipitously in the polls, and top political commentators all but wrote him off as a contender. Then, last week, he wowed critics with a powerful performance in Wednesday's debate at the University of New Hampshire. Suddenly, the Arizona Republican is basking in some momentum for the first time in a long time.Be sure to stop by for more later...

NFL Officials questioning if Patriots cheated...
2007-09-11 02:28:00
Uh oh... more US sports scandals? Sweet... and this one is juicy! I hope they were cheating and if they were --- who would be surprised? Genius and I am sure the other teams will just have to be MORE careful when they cheat --- because I am sure there are many doing this. And the fact that this is not the first time they are being accused of this makes this very Larry Craig-esque....The Patriots' cameraman was suspected of aiming his camera at the Jets' defensive coaches who were sending signals to their unit on the field, the sources said. The league also is investigating some radio frequency issues that occurred during the game. Be sure to stop by for more later...

'Stripper' Britney...
2007-09-11 02:14:00
I am starting to feel bad for her... I mean they are literally ripping her to shreds out there!It was meant to be Britney Spears's return to showbusiness after months when it looked like she was on the brink of self-destruction. With a good performance she may even have been able to slow the decline in her record sales and put her personal troubles behind her. But her appearance at the MTV Video Music Awards in Las Vegas was a shambles, with critics deriding it as 'painful and embarrassing'. Be sure to stop by for more later...

I welcome this ---SAN FRANCISCO — At the center of a black hole there lies a point called a singularity where the laws of physics no longer make sense. In a similar way, according to futurists gathered Saturday for a weekend conference, information technology is hurtling toward a point where machines will become smarter than their makers.Be sure to stop by for more later...
