She falls into pit when sidewalk grille gives way:

"A young woman walking to work was swallowed up by a Manhattan sidewalk
yesterday when a metal grate gave way, sending her plunging into an electrified
power vault."


You see this is why I try and walk around those metal grates on the sidewalk.

ABC News: Cop Killer Mumia Seeks New Trial

ABC News: Cop Killer Mumia Seeks New Trial:

"Abu Jamal, an
outspoken journalist and active member of the Black Panthers, was convicted of
killing a Philadelphia police officer in 1982. On a cold December night in 1981,
Officer Daniel Faulkner was found dead, shot once in the back and once between
the eyes. When police arrived at the scene, Abu Jamal was sitting on the curb a few feet away
from Faulkner's body.
Crime scene witnesses testified that they saw Abu Jamal fire a shot at
Faulkner's back. Next to Abu Jamal was a gun prosecutors say they linked to
the bullets that killed Faulkner. Together, the collective physical and
testimonial evidence led a jury to find Abu Jamal guilty after a few hours of deliberation.
"


Who did commit this crime, OJ Simpson? He is guilty, the facts of the case clearly show this to be true, it is only a political blindness that makes his defenders on the left want to believe that he is innocent.

Since his conviction Abu Jamal has been prolific, writing a handful of
books and recording a radio show from prison. He speaks of resistance and
freedom, closing each broadcast with the tag line, "From death row this is Mumia Abu Jamal."


What kind of jail is he in. This doesn't sound like a prison to me. Please arrest me, give me a place to live for free with free food and a computer to blog from. This whole case is insane, he is a cop killer and deserves to die, he is not given to little freedom but too much. If he were not a proponent of ideas that the left finds so valuable they wouldn't care at all about him or his crime.

FOXNews.com - Anti-Gay Kansas Church Members Plan to Picket Falwell Funeral - Local News News Articles National News US News:

"WBC will preach at the memorial service of the corpulent false prophet Jerry
Falwell, who spent his entire life prophesying lies and false doctrines like
'God loves everyone,'' reads a posting on Godhatesamerica.com."


This group actually thinks that Falwell didn't hate enough people in his life, which means that he was a sinner and is going to the lake of fire. This group is becoming a parody of itself, only a scary parody of itself.

Daily Kos: Media Matters sued

Daily Kos: Media Matters sued:

"A controversial journalist and Republican activist has sued the left-wing
Media Matters for America and its founder, David Brock, for slander and invasion
of privacy, claiming the nonprofit is a, “hate machine organized and
orchestrated to smear conservatives and Republicans who dare to speak out
against the liberal orthodoxy and manipulation in the nation’s media.”
Anthony “Andy” Martin served Brock with the lawsuit on Thursday after Media
Matters wrote a piece calling Martin an “anti-Semite.” In a letter dated March
30, 2007, Martin demanded a retraction and an apology with a notice that he
would sue Brock and Media Matters for defamation/libel if the group did not
comply. "


This is crazy. When did expressing an opinion about a public personality become the foundation for a lawsuit. It is a simple part of understand privacy laws, that public officials, media personalities put themselves in the public spot light and in doing so give up their privacy. I can say that I think that Anderson Cooper is gay, because he is a public person. I can't say that about my neighbor because they are private people and that would be an invasion of privacy, and slander.

Is that a tie Ronald Regan would wear?

Paris Down to 23 Days, Abandons Appeal | POPSUGAR - Celebrity Gossip & News.

Paris Down to 23 Days, Abandons Appeal POPSUGAR - Celebrity Gossip & News.:

"Paris continues to buff up which is a good thing because as of now, she's still
headed to jail. Lucky for her though her sentence has been cut in half to 23
days by the Sheriff who has also agreed to put her in a celebrity cell away from
the other inmates. This may have something to do with the fact that Paris'
lawyer Richard Hutton has dropped her probation violation appeal which he was
planning to file today. Not sure if she cut a deal with the court or what but we
still doubt she will be serving one full day, let alone 23. Just a hunch. Paris

I think the news here isn't the shortness of the time that she is serving but the longness of it. I don't know if she will even serve that long when other factors become a consideration. The factor that she will be in a VIP jail does tell me that over crowding may be less of an issue than it is in general population. Also there could be pressure for her to serve that time because of the media attention. I don't think this is going to be the end of Paris Hilton, just another drama, she has dealt with a lot of this kind of drama in her public life, I don't see how this is any different.

Gabby Babble: Nicole Richie Was Dumped By Madden?

Gabby Babble: Nicole Richie Was Dumped By Madden?:

"According to reports in Australia, Nicole Richie and Joel Madden have
split up. The Daily Telegraph claims they've secretly split after attending the
MTV Australia Video Music Awards last month. Sydney Confidential reported that
Madden dumped Richie for being too clingy. Aw, how sad! Those two looked like
they were so in love. I bet there's one person who isn't so sad about this news
though."


Could the couple that barely existed be over. I think that Nicole was just trying to save money on body guards and thought dating a man who would push the photogs around was a good idea.

People & In Touch Team Up (To Take Down Us Weekly) / Jossip

People & In Touch Team Up (To Take Down Us Weekly) / Jossip:

"We're witnessing history here, folks. Something that perhaps you've never
witnessed before is taking place: People.com is crediting another source for a
breaking story.
And not just any source, but the direct competition. In
Touch, to be precise. Why so groundbreaking? Because People.com is known
throughout the industry as one to never give credit for where a story breaks;
they simply phone up a star's rep or find a 'friend' to confirm a story. (To be
fair, People.com isn't alone in the practice.)
But today's instance – with
the story about Denise Richards and Richie Sambora breaking up – is 'no
accident.' A well-placed tattler reports People.com is 'joining hands' with In
Touch, intentionally playing nice with the Bauer tab, all as a maneuver to ...
wait for it, wait for it ... go on the Us Weekly assault. Both In Touch and
People 'hate them.'"


Is a war shaping up in the tabloid magazine business, and is this a war that could benifit the readers of these tabloids that may pay lower prices for more interesting stories. I think a good old fashioned news war with the celeb tabs would be great fun to watch. Let the games begin.

Rainbow Woman looking for her man for travel/gatherings/life!:

"Hey whats up??? Im Kat....I am currently living in Salt Lake City, UT (BOOO)
and getting ready to end my job and head out on the road.

I am posting
this ad in hopes that I will find my perfect rainbow brother to love and vice
versa. I have met some good people in rainbow land but never anyone that I
wanted to travel or have a relationship with. I know the appeal of free love and
I am not looking for that anymore, I need someone that will be there in the
morning and hold me.

I want to find a brother that likes to party, but
appreciates the beauty of untainted and true love that exists in the universe.
Lets take a psychedelic journey together and hold eachother while we explore
eachother and the ever changing world.

I want someone to travel with
this summer. Go straight deep into rainbow land and not come out unless
absolutely necessary. I want to love deeply and party and enjoy life with
someone that I find intellectually and physically beautiful.

Where is my
beautiful dready brother that wants the same things I do. Id love to meet the
person that wants the same things that I want.

Have a VW bus?? Got 420??
Got family love??? Got the road itch???
Email me!!! lets get to know one
another and see if we would be good roaddawgs/lovers

im blonde hair,
blue eyes, 5'4, big breasted, animal lover....love to eat fungus, LSD and my
friend MOLLY occasionally.

Where are you?? Contact me"



Hello

You sound like a beautiful womyn, and if I were still at the point in my life that I were free to travel I assure you I would love nothing more than to wake up in your arms every morning. However I am at a different stage in life now.

I would advise you though that Rainbowland is the wrong place to look for what you claim to be seeking. At the next gathering pay attention to all the single mothers. I am not saying that it is wrong to be a single mother, but that it is wrong for a man to have children that he does not support. The philosophy of the rainbow family is hedonistic, and really does not support the meaningful love the you are talking about. I know at this point I sound like a Christian, I am not, I have just found like you that free love isn't love and love shouldn't be free.

To be honest I don't know what my intention is in writing you, except I feel that in some way we are looking for the same thing. For me I found that the culture of sex that is the Rainbow Gathering is the culture of live for the moment. The men that fathered all the children you see around the gathering had no concern for the lives of those children or the lives of the womyn who gave birth to them.

The last note I want to add, is that drugs themselves are an obstacle to your goal. How can you know what your feelings are if you are high on pot or Ecstasy. How many times have do people make mistakes that have had profound effects on our relationships and our lives because it "felt" right at the time. A solid relationship is built on a solid foundation and drugs have no place in the life of a solid person. Again I know this sounds preachy, that isn't my point, I doubt that you would change your life because of an e-mail from a person you never met. It is something you should think about.

The universe is such a great loving place, when you are honestly open to all the love it has for you, drugs are a distraction. When you understand the power of the universe, and the power that you have in the universe and in your own life, I think using wanting to use it wisely is a responsible conclusion.

Maybe we can be friends. Also talking about how big your breasts isn't the best idea.

Three Months

Today is three months since I ventured to begin this blog. In that time I have already established what I believe to be an audience that finds this blog informative. I don't know how many people are out there reading this, and while at times I worry about it, long term I don't. If I can make a difference in few peoples lives, then I have done something. Of course I would like to have a million hits a day, that isn't going to happen right away, if ever.

I am working hard to make the blog an informative source about politics and gossip and all things that I think are important. I also want it to be entertaining, which sometimes I neglect in the push to get politics or gossip stories out. Right now I have focused a lot of energy on politics because I want to balance my coverage more, and in the past I have covered gossip heavily. The measure I am using is the number of tags that are gossip and the number that are politics. I am working to raise the number of politics until it is on par with that of gossip, which means making up ground. At the same time I want to avoid this becoming a YouTube blog so I am keeping the number of gossip posts at par with the number of YouTube posts.

I want to take this moment to thank you all for being a part of my blog, and encourage you to make comments, to express your thoughts and your feelings. I promise you that no comment will be blocked based on its content, unless it is clearly an ad or violent.
