The Bruins players are on a formal curfew tonight, making sure they behave themselves on the eve of their St Paddy's Day afternoon home game against the Flyers tomorrow. I think the Flyers are going to beat them up a bit.

Facebook's "People You May Know" can be interesting. People You May Know: Your Husband's Secret Other Wife

Are you serious? Was this a rumor of sorts, or from a reliable source? If he really was in public yesterday, wearing a PSU jacket, then that tells me something. There are a few possibilities of its significance, but it tells me that he intends to fight his charges, proclaim his innocence, and...

By "precautions" do you mean plenty of extra ammo to guard your foodstocks? Kieran, I post rarely, but read this board just about every day. I am mostly ignorant to the real workings of international banking and finance, but I've been reading the stuff FG posts on the course of this crisis...

Re-posted this here on Jive Turkey's suggestion... Check out this awesome video shot last week from the International Space Station by Ron Garan. Actually not a video, but a time lapse of HD photos of the earth from the ISS (Europe to the Indian Ocean) with Peter Gabriel providing the sounds...

Thanks. I'll try that. I didn't know I could post the same thing in different forums. By the way, if you use Twitter, the astronaut who did the above "video", tweets awesome photos from the ISS just about daily. His photo yesterday of the "boot" of Italy, at night, was surreal. Twitter...

Hope this is the right place to post this... Check out this awesome video shot this week from the International Space Station by Ron Garan. Actually not a video, but a time lapse of HD photos of the earth from the ISS (Europe to the Indian Ocean) with Peter Gabriel providing the sounds. It is...

Do not these links work any longer? Radiohead At Ease News - Radiohead - The King Of Limbs: Live From The Basement

I spent today driving a little more than an hour, each way, to Atlantic City for work. That gave me the opportunity to listen to Radiohead's KOL -From the Basement twice (along with a mix of other tunes I tacked on to the end -- The Butcher, Feeling Pulled Apart By Horses, Twisted Words, etc.)...

Check it out. This evening Monday April 4 (at 6:18 pm), a genuine U2 fan is launching from Kazakhstan, on a Russian Soyuz rocket, for six months on the International Space Station. NASA astronaut Ron Garan is a genuine fan. On his last space shuttle mission (STS 124), in 2008, among the...

This speech means a lot to me. My father recited it randomly and often. YouTube - Julius Caesar (1953) - Mark Antony speech I am not a judge of acting, but I think this should be known as one of Brando's epic performances. I guess not many people actually went to see this film maybe. I...

Thanks Imporer. I downloaded WinRar, but can't figure out how to get it to open the zipped file. I right-click "open with" and then browse to locate WinRar (really called 7-Zip) after the download, but it won't open. I'll keep trying.

Whoa -- I just downloaded the album, but my computer telling me I need Winzip to open it -- and the cost is $29.95 minimum. Any ways around this?

After more than a solid month of dreary gray skies, short days of low-hanging sun, sheets of ice, and feet of snow, welcome news comes of the new Radiohead record in the middle of February. I am certain we will soon be casting the gloom aside and welcoming an early spring to the sounds of some...

It's only a matter of time... YouTube - MTV Presents "Dipes" - Crazy Babies Party On The Conan O'brien Show !

As they say, I don't have to be wrong for you to be right. I think we are both right.

I don't think that talking about the historical reputation of a place, or its people, in broad terms, is always wrong. A few million people live in Alabama. It is impossible to talk about all of their millions of individual opinions. But, fair to many of those individual Alabamans or not...

Just about everything was pretty chill in the '70s, but I do not remember the Church looking the other way on those many other social/sexual issues. In fact, quite the contrary. Has the Vatican cited Kinsey's work as reason to tolerate other sexual deviance in their eyes, or just this...

If true, then this should spell the near end of Wikileaks. Releasing somewhat benign diplomatic cables that might cause minor humiliation to a salaried bureaucrat is one thing, but threatening real wealth and power is something altogether different.

No commentary, just something else to put out there... YouTube - Chris Rock - Gun Control Not long after the Columbine disaster, crime, tragedy, or whatever it was.

The latest...Here is a Wall Street Journal article discussing Loughner's ravings in an online gaming forum. Postings of a Troubled Mind - WSJ.com

Here is Judge Surrick's written opinion if anyone is interested... http://www.paed.uscourts.gov/documents/opinions/11D0004P.pdf

It seems like a good time to take a breath. With a uniquely objective perspective, yet with a very personal connection, here is the moment of silence requested by Commander Scott Kelly on the International Space Station. His twin brother, and fellow astronaut, Mark Kelly is the husband of Rep...

Remember this Tea Party gem from only a couple of months ago? It is an interesting advertisement, with an entertaining historical twist. I just don't get why they kept showing the pistols on the table. Was that just the work of an unskilled cameraman? YouTube - Gather Your Armies
