| | A Conversation with Jaguars.com Editor-in-Chief Vic Ketchman: Part Two! | | 2008-07-03 01:14:14 | | Our interview with Jaguars.com Editor-in-Chief Vic Ketchman continues
Chris: On a more serious note, my expectation for the 2008 Jacksonville Jaguars is to eliminate the "yeah, but" from the team. By that I mean casting off the "yeah, but they couldn't beat Indianapolis" or "yeah, but they didn't win the division", when discussing the team in comparison to the top tier of the NFL. What are your expectations for the 2008 Jaguars? Do you think the Jaguars will seriously contend for the division and give Indianapolis a challenge?Vic: Yeah, I do and in fact I not only think they can, I think the expectation is that they will. That should be the expectation. In my opinion the goal going into this season as we sit here in June is win the division. I know, the goal is always win the super bowl, but there is plenty of time for readjusting the goals heading into the postseason.

| | VW design chief wants a return to 'basics' | | 2008-06-27 11:41:00 | | If you look back over the years, Volkswagens have been steadily marching toward the gaudy. We're not talking Sagrada Familia amazingness, but chromey, buck-toothed, overwrought fussiness. Walter Da'Silva is out to change all that by realigning Volkswagen design with its past. That doesn't mean that every VeeDub becomes a K.D.F Wagen throwback like the New Beetle, but certain proportions and themes from the historical portfolio will define the design language.
Da'Silva expounded on his efforts with CAR, and used a lot of adjectives to tart up what's simply a course correction of Volkswagen styling. Look for the next Passat to be de-chromed and given a nose and tail treatment that follows a tighter brand template. Basically, what Da'Silva really wants to do is forget that the last eight years happened, and bring new VW designs more in line with the Wolfsburg of the late 1990s. If we could pipe up with our votes, we'd like to see the classic angularity of the Mk1 Golf come back -- Citi ... | | By: Car News | | |

They have to resit the exam! It's all like some Dickensian school with rogue teachers.Jose Manuel Barroso, the EU chief, said, "The No vote in Ireland has not solved the problems which the Lisbon treaty is designed to solve... The European Commission believes that the remaining ratifications should continue to take their course." All of which have been kept far away from the electorates of these countries. Of course, the UK, France, Netherlands would vote NO if they could. So too would Germany. And probably the majority.The EU is fast becoming a bad joke. Run by people who prefer snouts in money troughs, they are driven by the desire to get their hands on more lucre as the days go by.

| | Base chief breaks silence on UFO mystery | | 2008-05-29 06:51:40 | | A VETERAN air force chief has spoken out for the first time about the night he saw an alleged UFO at a Suffolk airbase.
Lieutenant Colonel Charles Halt was deputy base commander at RAF Woodbridge in December 1980 when patrolmen from the United States Air Force (USAF) claimed they saw a small, triangular shaped craft moving backwards through the woods before taking off. The incident has been dubbed Britain's Roswell and was documented by the Ministry of Defence.
A report by Lt Col Halt detailing what he and his men saw in the early hours of Boxing Day 1980 is already part of the National Archives.
But a video posted on internet site YouTube shows Mr Halt going into more details about the alleged sighting when he spoke at the National Press Club in America.More

You couldn't make it up if you tried. His airline loses bags, doesn't train staff properly and thinks things will all work out on their own. This week, he admitted to MPs that he was ultimately responsible for the farcical scenes shown around the world on TV. He told the Travel Select Committee that he had been aware of problems with the £4.3billion terminal before it opened, and had discussed delaying its first day. Mr Walsh said, "It was a calculated risk and one I decided to take. You can't point the finger at anyone else."It'll be alright on the night? Is Willie Walsh running British Airways or Denis Norden?

Ltd, or BPCL, says it can no longer absorb the losses it suffers on account of having to sell petroleum products at a government-mandated price. The government’s compensation, the company added, is neither adequate, nor timely.“We are running out of cash very fast. By April we will have a cash crisis and no cash for day-to-day operations.

SEAT has some ambitious plans. The Spanish subsidiary of Volkswagen is targeting a twofold increase in sales from 400,000 to 800,000 units by 2018, but currently has a line-up of seven models that, for the most part, are little more than rebodied VWs with a poorer reputation.

We found that package with Kevin Hamlin."Our focus between now and Daytona is not only getting our cars up to speed for the season opener, but also getting Kevin up to speed working with Red Bull, Brian and the 83 team."http://del.icio.us/rss/horisly... | | By: Autos Space | | |

| | CIA chief knew of videotapes in '06 | | 2007-12-13 02:25:07 | | The CIA failed to fully inform Congress that it was videotaping the harsh interrogations of terrorist suspects and that it destroyed the tapes in 2005, the bipartisan leaders of the House Intelligence Committee said Wednesday."Our committee was not informed, has not been kept informed and we are very frustrated about that issue," said Chairman Sylvestre Reyes, D-Texas, after a three-hour closed-door meeting with CIA Director Gen. Michael Hayden. That meeting, he said, "is just the first step in what we feel is going to be a long-term investigation. That probe will include calling other witnesses, including Hayden predecessors George Tenet and Porter Goss, and John Negroponte, the former Director of National Intelligence, said Rep. Peter Hoekstra, the panel's senior Republican. Reyes said he would also call on Jose Rodriguez, the former CIA director of operations who actually had the tapes destroyed. Hayden acknowledged that "particularly at the time of the de... | | By: PhreQuency Ent. | | |
| | Crew chief Ryan Pemberton leaves Dale Earnhardt Inc. | | 2007-12-11 22:57:20 | | CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) -- Crew chief Ryan Pemberton has left Dale Earnhardt Inc., and the team said Doug Richert will replace him beginning Wednesday. Pemberton was scheduled to lead the No. 8 Chevrolet that will be co-driven next season by Mark Martin and Aric Almirola. ``Ryan is immensely talented and has always been sought-after,'' DEI general manager John Story said Tuesday. ``He's now chosen to pursue some of those opportunities and we wish him nothing but the best.'' Pemberton spent eight seasons with MB2 Motorsports, which was bought by Bobby Ginn before last season. Ginn then sold the team to DEI, and Pemberton continued with the organization after the acquisition. Richert became the youngest crew chief to win a Cup championship when he did so as a 20-year-old with the late Dale Earnhardt in 1980. He spent most of last season with Brian Vickers at startup Red Bull Racing, but was let go late in the year.

| | Facebook Chief Apologizes | | 2007-12-06 10:16:00 | | Here's what Mark Zuckerberg said on Facebook Blog regarding Beacon Ad Service:About a month ago, we released a new feature called Beacon to try to help people share information with their friends about things they do on the web. We've made a lot of mistakes building this feature, but we've made even more with how we've handled them. We simply did a bad job with this release, and I apologize for it. While I am disappointed with our mistakes, we appreciate all the feedback we have received from our users. I'd like to discuss what we have learned and how we have improved Beacon.When we first thought of Beacon, our goal was to build a simple product to let people share information across sites with their friends. It had to be lightweight so it wouldn't get in people's way as they browsed the web, but also clear enough so people would be able to easily control what they shared. We were excited about Beacon because we believe a lot of information people want to share isn't on Faceboo... | | By: Beta18>>Technology HotSpot | | |
| | | Coupon Chief for Christmas... | | 2007-11-22 14:45:01 | | Christmas is coming and the goose is getting fat… and the smart people have started doing their Christmas present buying early. Those people that leave their present buying to the last minute can fall into one of two possible retail traps: either they end up buying the really expensive present that they were trying to avoid forking out for, or they end up buying some special Christmas rubbish (I know I used to be in retail…). Retailers bring out ‘special purchase’ rubbish at Christmas, it’s basically a whole line of cheaply made ‘tat’ that they know people searching for gifts will make a bee-line for…So, how to avoid these traps? Firstly make a list of those you need presents for and decide what they are going to get BEFORE heading out to make your purchases, like this:Mom: Something smelly because she doesn’t spend a lot on herselfDad: A book or DVD, something to do with model boats (his latest hobby) or planesWife: Another Columbo DVD box-set, some fancy chocolates,... | | By: Munny4Hunny | | |

| | BBC´s Newsround fed youngsters al-Qaeda propaganda, claims ex-spy chief | | 2007-09-29 21:24:00 | | Britain's former spy chief accused the BBC of "parroting" Al Qaeda propaganda to children as young as six.Dame Pauline Neville Jones, who is also a former BBC governor, is infuriated at the stance the corporation's Newsround programme took on the September 11 attacks. She accused the flagship children's news bulletin of feeding an "ugly undercurrent" which suggests the terrorist outrage was somehow justifiable. Newsround is aimed at viewers aged between six and 12.On its website it answered the question concerning 9/11, "Why did they do it" by saying: "The way America has got involved in conflicts in regions like the Middle East has made some people very angry, including a group called al Qaeda - who are widely thought to have been behind the attacks."After the public complained, the text was amended.

| | NATO force chief suggests new ways to fight Afghan opium production | | 2007-09-13 19:41:00 | | US General Dan McNeill, on a visit to NATO headquarters in Brussels, said he had made suggestions about what else the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) could do to NATO's top military and civilian commanders. But he insisted that ISAF, whose aim is to provide security so that Afghan President Hamid Karzai's government can spread its influence throughout the insurgency hit country, should not start destroying poppy fields.NATO officials acknowledge privately that the sight of soldiers ripping up opium crops would probably undermine their efforts to win the confidence of ordinary Afghans and turn them away from their former Taliban rulers."The fundamental principle is that the Afghans must take the lead for very obvious political reasons," added NATO spokesman James Appathurai.Afghanistan produces about 93 percent of the world's production illegal opium, the raw ingredient for heroin.The crop jumped by a third this year, helped by good rainy weather, despite international ef... | | By: THE NEW BABYLON TIMES | | |
