Coming Soon: The Los Angeles Vikings!

Another attempt to get public funding for a new stadium goes down in flames. It's not all bad. The Lakers left Minnesota for L.A. and they turned out all right, and it's a perfect fit for the Vikings, especially with all the bad acting Brett Favre has been doing the last few years!

Why Job Hoppers Make the Best Employees!

This is a really good article(click the link below).
There is nothing that is written that says you should just get a job and stay there for 20-30 years and retire and everything is lovely. I know it feels like that's the way it is supposed to be, but isn't and it shouldn't.
I think you learn more and experience more from different situations in different areas of employment.
One thing the article missed was that job hoppers bring their experience from all that they have learned from all that they have done.

Scientists Find it Difficult to Predict Volcano Behavior!

I am all for research and Volcanoes are important to the structure of the Earth, but with all the history and all the research, when a volcanologist is asked maybe not a simple question but a very important question like "When will this end?" or "When will this happen again?"
The answer should be a little better than "I don't know!"
At least when a physicist doesn't know an answer(and they usually don't) they at least have the courtesy to make one up and make it sound scientific.
Scientists find it difficult to predict volcano behavior, from The Washington Post.

Kirstie Alley Denies ‘Front’ For Scientology!

This is hilarious! Read the article and watch the video.
First she drops the B.S. bomb(almost twice) on live television.
Second, she admits she’s ‘too cheap’ to funnel funds from her weight-loss product for Scientology.
And Finally the most famous quote, "The address in Clearwater is my accountant, and he’s a Scientology Jew. I don’t know what to say to it.”

Packers Third Jersey To Be Unveiled Friday At Fan Fest

I like the idea of a third or alternate jersey, but they plan on wearing them at home games.
The intended purpose of an alternate jersey(to me)would be against opponents that insist(Cowboys!) on wearing their white jerseys as home jerseys.

Russia President Demands Resignations Over Poor Performance at Olympics!

Thank goodness Stalin is no longer in charge; or is he?
President Dmitry Medvedev lamented that Russia "has lost the old Soviet school ... and we haven't created our own school -- despite the fact that the amount of money that is invested in sport is unprecedentedly high."
You think they might have a chip on their shoulders when they host in 2014?

I heard Tony's comments on his radio show and I saw Hannah's outfit. I am not sure I want to be in a society in which somebody can't say somebody is wearing a bad outfit.
