I heard about this on the radio this morning as I was driving to work… “A four-year-old boy is in a medically induced coma, suffering from serious head injuries, after being hit by a car in Mississauga, Ont., on Sunday night. Police believe the child was struck by a 1996 black Nissan Maxima and dragged about 35 metres. The car struck the four-year-old just before 9 p.m. in the area of Roche Court, near Erin Mills Parkway and the Queen Elizabeth Way. The boy was taken to a Toronto hospital.” [4101
Yesterday the US military announced: "A Multi National Division-Center Soldier was killed in an improvised explosive device attack southeast of Hillah, Iraq June 16." Via MNF not doing their job and letting DoD make "announcements," it might not be noticed that the 4100 mark was reached and past. The death makes 4101 US service members who have been killed in Iraq since the start of the illegal war. [Again, MNF is supposed to announce deaths. DoD is supposed to announce the names of the dead aftBILLY IS SORRY

"This Colombian quartet come out of the gates running - hitting hard with their pure punk energy and lyrical insights that look more to the brighter side of life than downtrodden tales from the barrio. The thundering, mile-a-minute drums showcase the group's love of modern punk-pop, but you can also hear a love of the big chunka-chunka metal guitars of heroes like Metallica. No Estaba Acostumbrado is taken from the band's debut, Lo Que No Sabias." -- iTunes Store Genre: Latin Download for FVincent at a Gala

Usually I like to tune into our local PBS station on Sat. afternoons as they usually run cooking and home improvement shows. This probably coincides with watcher who plan on doing the same thing and thus like to get a little inspiration be it cooking a special Sat. or Sun. meal for the family or doing some landscaping in the yard. The particular cooking show that caught my eye sadly was a bit of a turn off. The set was perfect and polished and this chef’s came across as the young ladies cookingDoo-Wop - 95 Live Mixtapes

TomTom could make navigation software available on iPhone 3G Quite apart from the new iPhone being 3G, one of the things I'm most excited about is that it now has GPS.

Remembering Theodore Norman When I first started working at UCLA, I occasionally saw a man in the halls who looked a bit like Igor Stravinksy and a bit like Aaron Copland. It was Ted Norman, our guitar teacher. His students were always on fire. Playing cutting edge stuff, difficult stuff, and always looking for new sounds on the guitar. More importantly, he made them all compose music. He created a little guild of artists who were guitarist and composers and cool. Check out a little websA Sonic Screwdriver Too Far

The current productions of Doctor Who suffer massively from some serious problems.
