Newt will not run

Former Speaker of the House - Newt Gingrich, will not run for president. He decided this when he was not able to raise $30 million he need to run. It is doubtful anyone can win entering this late in the game.

Companies not paying overtime

In the current environment of DOWNsizing and OUTsourcing, many workers are DOWN and OUT. Those lucky enough to still have their jobs are forced to work more than forty hours, often sixty hours per week, but not paid overtime. If they complain they are then fired for "performance reasons" and not eligible for unemployment.

Companies not paying overtime. They are using excuses to make people work more and more whle they pay less and less. The result is that many workers that used to be paid hourly are now salary.

Republican Debate at Howard

Today there was a Republican presidential debate at Howard University. Four candidates, Rudy, Mitt, Fred, and John chose not to appear. The reason is that they do not feel that their views are welcome there.

We can only hope that this mistake will not damage the Republican party.

Debt ridden video rental company Movie Gallery closing 520 stores

As business moves from bricks to clicks, more and more movies rental stores are closing down. Movie Gallery closing 520 stores and placing emphasis on getting rid of weak outlets.

Netflix slashed prices to gain market share. The new move is to send video over the net. That way you do not have all the overhead of a store.

NASA creates computer model for other Earths

NASA has found that most planets near us are gas giants like Jupiter and Saturn. Small planets like Earth are rare. There are also no water planets.

This is sad, but we will keep on looking to see if there is another Earth out there. NASA has not yet found an Earth like world.

Iranian Leader Addresses Students

The Lion of Iran will roar today in New York. He talks peace, but his actions are to build WMD. How can we believe that he wants atoms for peaceful purposes? Are we that foolish? Only time will tell.

I predict that they will soon be a military confrontation between Israel and Iran. It is bound to happen.

In a move to make their city more edgy and trendy. The new logo for clowntown miami, I mean Downtown Miami is a hot pink - DWNTWN MIAMI. They intentionally do a mizpellin.

Scary to see the future. We now consider dropping the "O" to be trendy. I wonder what is next.

Japan launches lunar probe

Back to the moon, oh so soon. Japan has launched a lunar probe in what will be the first lunar exploration since Apollo missions of the 60's and 70's.

It is exciting to see rockets going to the moon again. Hopefully, people will soon go to the moon.

The digital SLR cameras have taken over. No longer do you see film cameras, but now we have the Olympus Evolt E-510 with digital image stabilization and choice of lenses to take professional pictures.

Each year brings better digital picture, but soon the day will come when digital pictures are better than film.

Google Adds Presentation Tool

Google Docs already has a spreadsheet and word processor, now a new presentation tool has been added to help compete with Microsoft Office. This is a big plus for sales people who might have to do changes to a presentation over the internet.

This new tool will make life easier for people who use the internet. I hope Google will create a tool to compete with the old Frontpage.

Payday Loan

Payday Loan Rescue is a company that offers quick cash in a flash. Sometimes we need money for a big emergency. For example, this year I was in an accident and the body shop wanted $850. This may not seem like much, but I knew I need my vehicle up and running. The rental car was costing $25/day.

The advantage of a payday loan is that you can get cash for quick emergencies. A regular bank loan takes a long time to approve. Friends can loan you small amounts such as $20 if you forgot your wallet, but for a big crisis event a payday loan is like a lifeboat in the ocean.

Payday loan rescue is better than a payday loan store because it is open 24/7 and you do not need to drive miles to the store. This is a temporary solution to your cash flow problem.

If you need a some quick cash, you should apply today for a super fast Pay Day Loan.

Oil at record high

Today oil broke the $80 barrier. It is causing the economy to slow down as well as driving inflation. People are forced to pay at the pump more and more. The price of gasoline will soon reflect the high priced of oil. Refiners will be forced to pass on the high costs to customers.

My suggestion is the electric car. We still have hydro power and inexpensive electricity. Using an electric car can save you money. Plug in hybrids are the future.

Slot Machines in Miami?

A supreme court case will determine the future of slot machines in Miami, Florida. There are three potental places they can appear {Calder racetrack (horses), Miami Jai-Alia, and Flagler Dog Track}. Miami may have casino action sooner than you think.

Virtual Worlds

Playstation now has a new virtual world called "HOME". This 3D world is filled with avatars and reminds me of second life. It is the future.

OJ arrested

Yes folks, it seems that OJ Simpson was arrested today. We are not sure what the charges will be. This has nothing to do with the death of his ex-wife or her friend Ron Goldman. That issue is still unresolved, but rather with a strange set of circumstances in a Las Vegas casino.

It is alledged that OJ was involved in an armed robbery. By the way, OJ's book about the death of his ex-wife is out in bookstores. It is called "If I Did It: Confessions of the Killer"

War protest march

Many arrest in war protest against the Iraq invasion. The several thousand demonstrators looked like an old Vietnam anti-war march thru the streets of DC.

Army veteran Justin Cliburn, 25, of Lawton, Okla said "We are occupying a people who do not want us there," Indeed he is so correct.

Google offers $30 million prize for first lunar rover

Yes folks, you can win 30 million bucks if you land a lunar rover on the old moon. However, all you astronaut cowboys need to know that the Rover must safely land on the moon and beam back images and video back to mother Earth.

So, what are you waiting for?
