New Channel Going To The DogsJul 15, 2013Plenty of things will grab a dog’s attention: squirrels, tennis balls, funny smells, other dogs. But a TV channel?Absolutely, say the makers of DogTV, the first cable network to deliver 24-hour programming for dogs. The idea, they say, is that flipping on the channel while you go out for the day will keep your pet stimulated, entertained and relaxed. Call it “Sesame Street” for those who will never learn their ABCs.The shows on DogTV are actually three- to six-minute segments f ...

Did Anyone Watch The History Channel The Last 2 Days?Dec 16, 2010Third Reich:The Rise and Third Reich: The Fall. I found it very interesting, although the filming was pretty awful with all that flashing. The films were made by the German people. The Rise was the history and reasons of how Hitler came into power. It almost parallels the conditions in the U.S. today.
The Fall showed some known facts about Hitler and his armies, but it also showed how tough the German civilians had it during and after the war. I knew that Hitler got so desperate duri ...

But nothing seems to be helping. I have pain/fatigue across the area of my back right at the braline. My arms and neck feel heavy. ...

Obama Justice Department Was Involved In IRS Targeting, Lerner Emails RevealDec 12, 2014Sadly, the 18 month investigation into the IRS targeting of conservative groups isn’t over, and it may be worse than anyone thought. A federal judge has broken loose more emails that the DOJ had surely hoped would never surface. The picture it reveals isn’t pretty. The documents prove that Lois Lerner met with DOJ’s Election Crimes Division a month before the 2010 elections.
It has to be embarrassing to the DOJ, which may not be the most impartial one to be investigating the IRS. In fac ...

I Just Got Back Home After Going To 6 DifferentFeb 25, 2012only to find none at all on the shelves. "WTF?" I'm thinking. Maybe I had somehow ended up in the Twilight Zone.
At the 6th store I went to, I asked what the deal was with Excedrin. Where was it?
Nobody knew or could give me an answer.
So I come home and type "Excedrin" into Google, and was shocked to learn that it's been recalled! (Along with 2 other, can't-do-without staples, No-Doz and Gas-X).
Apparently it was recalled a month ago (something about t ...

It was the first time the Fed has given details about banks that borrowed from the central bank's oldest emergency-lending facility. Thursday's move was forced by lawsuits filed by B ...
