I guess we have a few troublemaking kids, too. And...it's not even GroundHog's day
Elementary students try to hijack school bus
Friday, January 21, 2005
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Three 11-year-old boys and a 10-year-old girl tried to hijack their school bus near Punxsutawney this morning.
State police said the four hatched the plot yesterday. Just after 8 a.m. today, one of the boys pulled a knife from a book bag and held it near another student. He demanded driver Janet McQuown, 52, stop and get off the bus.

Geoff Gilmore, Director of the Sundance Film Festival, is understandably enthusiastic. After months on the road, he and his team of programmers recently unveiled the roster of films that will screen at the most important festival in the United States. The lineup sets the agenda for the year; the vast majority of the independent films and documentaries that will be released in theaters throughout 2005 will debut between January 20 - 30 in Park City, UT. This year is a bit different though, according to Gilmore. He boldly claimed that this is the best list of films to screen at Sundance in years.
"I have never been as excited about a competition that we have had in my 15 years of running this festival," Gilmore explained, during a recent conversation.
A total of 120 feature films will unspool at Sundance '05, the highest profile screening in one of fou competitive sections. The most anticipated titles will screen for the first time anywhere — there are 87 world premieres and many lack distribution — so buyers will be bidding to buy the hottest films and get them on their release slates.

BEST DAYS OF THEIR LIVES
Pupils at a comprehensive school are considering themselves the luckiest 12-year-olds in Britain after all homework was scrapped for them.
The head called homework a "dinosaur" and insists the move will encourage students to "love learning for its own sake". Dr Patrick Hazlewood told the Daily Telegraph he thinks pupils should "manage their own learning".

Student sent home for inappropriate shirt
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LONGVIEW, Wash. -- An openly gay high school student was sent home to change after he wore a shirt that said "Too Gay To Function" during homecoming week.
Billy Zepeda, a senior at R.A. Long High School, decorated the lime green shirt with marker-drawn rainbows and wrote the phrase from the teen movie "Mean Girls" on the front. He wore it Thursday during the school's make-your-own-shirt day. A teacher told him the shirt was inappropriate and offensive to homosexuals, said Zepeda, 17.

I completely understand and respect RS's statement. They don't want religious ads period. Not even Christian. Imagine what would happen if some "strange" religion had enough money to put an ad there? Christians would scream and sue.
On second thought, you are probably right. Next thing you know the Christain Right would be placing adds dissing Sponge Bob

It looks like Kevin Martin is the biggest piece of shit on that list, so he's a sure bet to take over.
Until now, I didnt think it could get any worse

Kind of silly - if it was good enough for The Onion, it should have been good enough for Rolling Stone - it was just an ad

Refried Boogie was a dance anthem for the party animals at the time.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 21 - Michael K. Powell will step down today as chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, officials there said, ending a four-year term that was marked by the tightening of standards on decency and attempts to loosen restrictions on media ownership.

Here's another great 60's band from San Francisco--Canned Heat were one of the most popular blues rock acts at the time and this was their best work by far and one of my own personal favorites. This double album, which was released in 1968, featured 10 tracks including the Top 40 hit 'Going Up The Country' and a 41 minute live version of 'Refried Boogie' (Parts 1 & 2). A UK label remastered this classic in 2003 and its still available through Amazon and you should have it in your collection.

It sounds like a line from a spam e-mail: Work from home! Low risk! Flexible schedule! Earn hundreds of dollars each gig!
But an emerging group of resourceful entrepreneurs says there is no catch. The rising popularity of Apple's sleek iPod has created a new niche service: the professional iPod loader. There are housekeepers to tend homes and gardeners to tend landscaping. Why not iPod loaders to take care of music collections?
