Online story: "GOLDEN, Colo. — A man charged with attempted first-degree murder in the shooting and wounding of two eighth-graders at a Colorado middle school was found not guilty by reason of insanity Wednesday. * Eastwood was charged with a total of 15 crimes. Jurors found him not guilty by reason of insanity on all but one charge: possession of a weapon on school grounds, which carries a sentence of up to 1 1/2 years in prison." -- If the trial proved anything about insanity, it showed the jury was the guilty party.

From online story: "In "Making Our Democracy Work: A Judge's View," U.S. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer shares insights gained from his 16 years on the nation's highest court. " -- No wonder SCOTUS Breyer is so liberal; he doesn't know our form of government is not a Democracy, but a Limited Republic!

Online headline: "GM Agrees With D-Wade—Stars Are Underpaid" -- Ooops, my bad. Thought Government Motors was trying to court NBA players into the union.

Hasn't the unbridled expansion/failure in the banking industry taught anybody anything about the pitfalls of meaningless expansion? Take the SEC for example; why do the powers that be think adding Texas A&M and Missouri will enhance the core of the SEC? With limited games that can be scheduled, many rivalries between existing schools will become alternate events, and the traditions will take a hit. Witness the division into East & West divisions, and how it has caused series to skip every two years. Can it be assured that, say UGA-AU not be interrupted by a 2 year absences when UGA schedules Missouri while AU plays Texas A&M on the traditional UGA-AU weekend. And how about inter-conference rivalries like UGA vs GA Tech?
