For those of you who love abortion so much, you can move to Oregon or California and abort your heart out. Me? I like living in a state that appreciates the value of human life.In the Top 10 Most Pro-Life, number 6 out of 50 for South Dakota isn't too bad. But we can keep working for #1. Maybe if we get the abortion ban passed this year, we'll get #1 next year! .
Net Neutrality's not anti-property, it's about our property
It took 17 rounds, but when the FCC's $4.638 billion reserve was met late last week, it meant that the FCC's mandated open access rules would necessarily come into play. Under the proposed rules, 22MHz of the spectrum to be auctioned would be subject to open-access regulations, meaning that the company winning the auction would not be able to control what kind of devices are attached to the network or how the bandwidth is used. While there were plenty of high-fives around here, not everyone is pleased. Scott Cleland, founder of telecom analyst firm The Precursor Group, is out blasting the developments, saying that open access and "net neutrality" advocates are "antiproperty" according to the IDG News Service. Nothing could be further from the truth. "Everybody throws the word 'open' around and says open is wonderful," Cleland said.

Supporters say it gives players and potential ones for these teams a sense of stability. Well, such only is the case if those players actually like that successor-in-waiting. And what if you're Florida State, and you're locked into Jimbo Fisher to follow Bobby Bowden, which is the case, and then Mark Richt decides a few years from now that he really would bolt Georgia for Florida State? Fisher or Richt. That's a tough one. "It really does seem odd when hierarchies in sports are set up so transitions are already in place before they actually occur," McGuirk said. "Then again, that does seem to be a new phenomena, and it's one that we're not familiar with." Instead, the Braves are among the shrinking majority when it comes to that trend.

A widower (Steve Carrell) discovers the woman (Juliette Binoche) he's falling in love with is dating his brother. Collierville Towne 16. Enchanted (PG, 107 min.) Amy Adams ("Junebug") is Giselle, a naive Disney princess ejected from her fairy-tale cartoon world into the flesh-and-blood chaos of Manhattan in this charming, clever and upbeat family film, directed by Kevin Lima and scripted by Bill Kelly. Never insulting as it moves toward its inevitable happily-ever-after ending, the movie maintains a delicate balance between wish-fulfillment fantasy and a recognition that the real world inhabited by its audience is filled with disappointment as well as with joy. With Patrick Dempsey as the divorce lawyer who becomes Giselle's New York Prince Charming; Susan Sarandon as a wicked witch; and Rachel Covey as a 6-year-old stand-in for the young girls in the audience: She sees Giselle as a dream big sister come to life.

Senator Clinton has argued, I think fairly, that she has the experience to start on Day One. I think that it's important to be right on Day One." Sen. Obama will deflate McCain's strength and national security message in November by providing the best contrast for American voters to see — that Obama had the good judgment to oppose the stupid invasion of Iraq from the beginning, and the authorization to invade should have NEVER been given to Bush! .
Sarah Connor Chronicles Terminates the Competition
Though my housemates thought Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles would flop, what the hell do they know? While I must admit that I was (and remain) doubtful, the show's series premiere scored big with audiences.
The Sarah Connor Chronicles Opens Big
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles scored the best opening night demo ratings of any new show in three years.
Thanks in part to strong, aka expensive, marketing, Connor opened to an eye-popping 7.6 rating/18 share among adults 18-49 and delivered around 18.3 million viewers with its one-hour bow Sunday at 8, according to prelim Nielsen national data.
While other shows in the same slot did not perform nearly as well -- don't even get me started on the so-called Golden Globes -- Terminator performed amazingly in every way one can look at it.
