TV Guide

“TV Guide” has its sexy issue on the stands now.
So not many surprises here Patrick Dempsey of “Grey’s Anatomy”, Skeet Ulrich of “Jericho”, and Tom Willing of “Smallville”.
There were a few that I’ve never seen Sendhil Ramamurthy of “Heroes” and David Boreanaz of “Bones”.
My loss, I guess.


Eating Through Frugality


With Thanksgiving a success (hopefully) and the mountain of dishes finally moved to the cabinets for at least the next few weeks, perhaps it’s time to let someone else do the cooking. Office parties, seasonal get-togethers and holiday shopping; these are great excuses to splurge on a meal, and for those willing, Forbes has compiled a list of the most expensive restaurants in America. Highlighted on the list was Tom Colicchio’s rotating appearance at his Craft Restaurant denoted Tom: Tuesday D

The Fundamentals


Jonathan Givony of DraftExpress:  “The Childress experiment has been fascinating to say the least so far. Can an important NBA player adjust himself to European basketball and justify a ridiculous salary, and will additional NBA players follow him over in the future? So far, it seems way too early to judge still. Olimpiacos’ head coach Giannakis was not kidding he said ‘we did not bring Josh here to score 40, 30 or 50 points,’ as he told ESPN after he landed. In fact, Childress is not even scor

People Love Nikki Haley


We’re frequently accused of showing a little too much love to S.C. Rep. Nikki Haley, to which we can only say “we wish” (ba doom ching). But seriously, why wouldn’t we show Nikki some love? In addition to being one of the few fiscal conservatives in state government willing to stand up for what she believes in, Haley is hot as hell, people, and if showering her with our unceasing affection is wrong, we don’t wanna be right. Anyway, Haley’s relentless pursuit of government transparency this

General James Jones Selected National Security Advisor


by Tom Donohue This morning President-elect Barack Obama selected General James L. Jones (Ret.), president and CEO of the Chamber’s Institute for 21st Century Energy, as National Security Advisor. General Jones is an outstanding choice to serve as President Obama’s National Security Advisor. In these difficult times—as the country wages wars on two fronts and grapples with global terrorism—he is the right man for the job. His deep knowledge of global military, economic, and geopolitical affai

CNN Gets Ready To Eat the AP's Lunch


With newspapers' ad dollars shrinking and their budgets dwindling, wire services are feeling the pinch. AP recently upped its prices and saw as many as 100 newspapers threaten to drop its service. Now the company is planning cutbacks. CNN is looking to fill the void. The television network announced plans last month to sell wire content to newspapers, and now it looks like the AP might have reason to worry. CNN faces several challenges in its endeavor — its current internal wire service is no

Corrupt beyond question


Corrupt beyond question Posted by Jillian Becker Mon, 01 Dec 2008 14:20:00 GMT Tom Fitton at Front Page Magazine lists just some of the ‘reprehensible acts’ (we’d say vile, immoral acts) of Hillary Clinton over the last 15 years, and goes on to say: With specific relevance to her new job as Secretary of State, there are also the serious conflicts of interest involving Bill Clinton, who has become something of an international sensation since leaving the White House, brokering internatio

Don’t Forget Ruby Ridge And Lon Horiuchi


Is it greed or stupidity that would drive a gun company, H-S Precision, to hire as a spokesman Lon Horiuchi, the FBI sniper who shot and killed Vicki Weaver while she was holding her infant daughter? Gary Marbut, President of Montana Shooting Sports Association, offers his explanation. *Note* - Marbut indicates that readers arrived at this “explanation” page from an email being circulated. In that email, a picture of Vicki Weaver and her baby have been added to the H-S Precision “Trophy Room

Obama Takes Ownership of the Clinton Scandals


By Tom Fitton FrontPageMagazine.com So, let me get this straight. You’re the president-elect trying to deliver a new spirit of reform and integrity to Washington, DC, while at the same time healing and bringing together a divided country. And then you tap Hillary Rodham Clinton, perhaps the most corrupt politician in modern political history – and certainly the most polarizing — to be your Secretary of State? Hillary Clinton, the nation’s top diplomat? If you’ve read about Judicial Watch’s w

Huntington plays wait-and-see game


The way general manager Neal Huntington sees it, the Pirates’ coming winter could be downright tumultuous. Or not. “It could be an offseason where there is a significant change or one where almost nothing happens,” he said. “Quite honestly, it has the makings of an either-or scenario, depending on what happens with other clubs and the industry.” What that means, translated from GM-speak, is this: If the Pirates find what they feel is equal or better value in veteran-for-prospect trades, the

Studying Chinese blog censorship-Rebecca MacKinnon


01-12-08 Studying Chinese blog censorship Rebecca MacKinnon RConversation: November 29, 2008 http://rconversation.blogs.com/rconversation/2008/11/studying-chines.html On Thursday this past week, Beijing-based lawyer-blogger Liu Xiaoyuan won Deutsche Welle’s annual prize for the Best Chinese Blog. Then on Friday he discovered that the parallel blog he keeps at Sohu.com had been taken down. Fortunately, being a famous blogger, he was able to call an editor at Sohu and get it restored, although t

Does it Really Say That?


The Calvinism discussion is raging (once again) in Southern Baptist life.  The Recent John 3:16 Conference seems to have caused a bit of a rumble in the blogosphere. Dr. Tom Ascol of Founders Ministries recently posted on this event as a significant factor in a widening divide between Calvinists and Non-Calvinists (he calls them anti-Calvinists) in the SBC.  The discussion in his thread is vigorous and deep.  I recommend it, but you’ll need your theological dictionary and a couple of church hi

The Persistence of Resentment


Sometimes there’s just something in the air, and everyone seems to come to the same conclusion all at once, without prompting of any sort. What was perhaps implicit suddenly becomes quite explicit – and it’s not that great minds think alike or any such nonsense. It’s just that things shift, maybe there’s one defining event, and almost everyone abruptly sees what’s really going on. Tom Cruise in no longer cool – he’s kind of a jackass. Why didn’t anyone notice that before? All his previous odd be

That mean old Harry Reid!


So, our good friend Chuck Muth is upset at U.S. Sen. Harry Reid. In fact, in a blog posted today, he even compares Reid to a mobster! Which is odd, since the source material Muth cites only shows Reid to be a hardball politician, and we know from reading Chuck for many years that he loves hardball politics, and even plays them himself from time to time. Let’s quote the offending passage, from a Review-Journal story in today’s paper by political writer Molly Ball, about why Reid decided to cam

I love Tina Weymouth


Can I tell you my Talking Heads story? It takes a little while, so bear with me.. and no, it doesnt involve me literally loving Tina Weymouth, mores the pity… but it does go right back to year zero for me with regards to the aesthetics of music… When I was a kid my first ‘real’ exposure to music beyond what was immediately in front of me came via my older brother who by then was attending boarding school (we lived on a farm, too remote to commute to secondary school) and he’d return home for w

Next Time, I’ll Vote For…


I realize my posting delinquency, especially during the nasty weather, pre-holiday-don’t-want-to-do-any-real-work-at-work time of year, is inexcusable.  I’ll offer up an excuse anyway.  Three weeks ago, I was blindsided by my child’s first illness.  Coxsackie virus.  (Is it just me, or do the most virulent viruses always have strange, Far-Eastern sounding names?  Too bad no one ever asked one of my Appalachian ancestors to name any germs.  If the doc had told me Judd had the Hellfire Gravelmou

Transcript of NDP conference call


Judy: Judy, and when I hear the beep stopping, I’m going to start the meeting. Hello? Judy: Hang on everybody, you don’t even need to give your name yet, I’m going to do a check in a second. Hello? Judy: Hi there, it’s okay, it’s Judy, we’re all set. Okay Judy. Jack: Hi Judy, we’re all, we got a bunch of caucus members here, we’ll just wait for your instructions, we’ll leave it on mute in the meantime. Judy: Okay. Alright, I think I’ll start, uhm, it’s Judy, we’ve got exactly one hour an

SOME THOUGHTS ON THE VEGAS TOURNAMENT


Let’s address the turnover problem first. I’ve heard lots of people blame the coaching staff for the turnovers, but in my opinion, the only thing the coaches can do about that is sub for players who are struggling in an attempt to fix the problem. Only problem was, everybody was turning it over for Kentucky in Vegas. I feel perfectly justified in criticizing a coach if I feel I can come up with a solution to a problem or figure out an obvious coaching error like playing two post players against

Don Vito Harry Reid


OK, just bear with me here and read the script from the following scene which appeared at the opening of the “The Godfather” movie. The local undertaker, Signore Bonasera, is asking Don Vito Corleone to avenge a brutal sexual assault on Bonasera’s daughter. We pick up the action there… Bonasera: I’ll give you anything you ask. Don Corleone: We’ve known each other for many years but this is the first time you’ve ever come to me for counsel or for help. I can’t remember the last time you inv
