Las Vegas Review-Journal Lights The Way To The Total Demise Of Print

They are illuminating the path to irrelevance with a burning light of stupidity. Instead of embracing new media to help drive up their readership, thus advertising dollars, the Review-Journal is attacking people for quoting it.

8 more websites sued over R-J copyrights; 34 total

I do not believe they understand the maxim, “I don’t care what you say about me, as long as you spell my name right.” Of course, after attacking bloggers they may start caring about what is said about them or, more importantly, the complete silence about them.

Famous Ship Needs Rescue

Once a formidable opponent on the high seas, defeating the Spanish fleet at Manila Bay during the Spanish-American War and announcing the United States' arrival as a world power, today the USS Olympia faces an uncertain future.

Olympia, the lone surviving naval ship from the Spanish-American War, is in danger of being scrapped or turned into an artificial reef, unless funds can be raised to keep her intact and above water. As she stands today, the cruiser displays extensive damage, particularly to her hull. Historic steel-hull ships like Olympia should be dry-docked every 20 years for maintenance and repairs; Olympia has remained in the water continuously since 1945.

In 1921, Olympia performed her final naval mission: carrying the body of Unknown Soldier from France to the United States.

Obama: Still A Muslim

Not seeing this on the news which isn't surprising whether true or not. It is also not surprising that Obama is betraying Israel nor is it surprising that the Democrats in Congress are betraying Israel. The question is why.

Obama, a 'Strategic Catastrophe'
Israeli officials say it's not Iran that is Israel's greatest threat
 
"Israel's relations with the US are at a low point, and Obama poses a danger to Israel," wrote Nahum Barnea in the nation's biggest newspaper Yediot Ahronot.

The feeling among the Israeli public is that Obama is appeasing the Muslim world at the expense of Israel.

"The American President told me in confidence that he is a Muslim," said Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Aboul Gheit on Nile TV. That could explain why Obama has instructed that the term "Islamic extremism" no longer be used in official government documents and statements.
...

This is the statement recorded:

Adul Gheit said he had a one-on-one meeting with Obama, where the US President told him that He was still a Muslim, the son of a Muslim father, the step son of Muslim stepfather, that his half brothers in Kenya are Muslims, and that he was sympatetic towards the Muslim agenda.

Adul Gheit claimed Obama told the Arabs to show patience. Obama promised that once he overcame some domestic issues, like the Health care reform, he would show the Muslim World how to deal with Israel.

The Jews Are Home Helen

I wondered when someone would point this out.

Genetic testing raises an age-old question — are the Jews a people, or a religion?
