In court Viacom has been trying to prove that Youtube was "founded with bad intentions", and asks the judge to believe that "YouTube is like Napster or Grokster". Youtube decided last week, enough is enough, and chose to reveal Viacom's shady marketing tactics publicly on the official Youtube blog. Check out an interesting snip-it below.

Shortly after Vice President Joe Biden's Israel visit ended on March 11 in high dudgeon over the approval 1,600 new homes in East Jerusalem, US president Barack Obama ordered a consignment of Joint Direct Attack Munition- JDAM already on its way to Israel to be diverted to the US Air Force base on the Indian Ocean island of Diego Garcia. This step, the pointer to a US arms embargo for preventing Israel attacking Iran's nuclear sites, is first revealed here by debkafile's military sources.
US military sources describe the consignment as consisting of 387 JDAM kits for attachment to the warheads of 2,000-pound BLU-109/MK-84 or the 1,000-pound BLU-110/MK-83 bunker-busters for their conversion into smart bombs.

As someone who takes prescribed medications necessary for thyroid and blood pressure issues, I will soon run out of these medicines and will have nowhere to turn to have my prescriptions filled. Knowing that I am among millions of others, gives me no comfort and I am doing everything I can to think positive. Sending out the positive vibes to those who are voting for the uninsured this weekend!! Cern Missing Black Hole Raises New Safety ConcernsDo you remember all those physicists who wanted to prevent the LHC project because they feared it could produce a little black hole that would escape (probably to the earth's core) and could start devouring the planet?

How they were "laughed at" in the press? Dismissed derisively by the scientific community as 'alarmists' and the naive public cajoled with "nothing like that could ever happen". Well, it may well have --at least partially--happened, there's a report that one of the mini-black holes created has escaped and no one knows why or where it went. If you've a suspicion that the little black hole is in your neighborhood, to whom and how is it to be reported? What should we be looking for?
