Planes circle airport as controller sleeps!

 

Two airplanes had to circle the Greek Island of Lesbos for one-half hour while the air traffic controller slept soundly. The airport's secondary control finally took over and assisted the stressed-out pilots. Wouldn't you have loved to have been in one of those airplanes wondering if you ever were going to come down?

Enter the Outer Limits with As It Stands Today

Venture into the Opinion Section of today's Times-Standard Online and find out why we have entered the Outer Limits of presidential elections.

Chinese celebrate their first-ever space walk

                                                                                        

The boys in Beijing are jumping for joy as they

honor the three astronauts that completed the historic mission. The Shenzho 7 spaceship did what it was supposed to, and the capsule containing the astronauts landed safely in Inner Mongolia yesterday.

We (Americans) probably financed the mission with interest payments on the money we've been borrowing from China!

AP Investigation: Palin got zoned aid, gifts

 

              

This is Gov. Palin's former home. When she sold it during her last year as Wasilla Mayor she got the city to sign off on a special zoning exception-and did not keep a promise to remove a potential fire hazard.

The more we know about Sarah Palin the more apparent it becomes that she wasn't properly vetted by McCain's people. The "Bridge to No Where", outrageous earmarks for her tiny town, are only the tip of the iceberg for this Alaska Governor who would be VP.

The Associated Press's recent investigation of Palin's first actions after being elected mayor in 1996 raised possible ethical red flags. For example she cast the tie-breaking vote to propose a tax exemption on aircraft when her father-in-law owned one, and backed the city's repeal of all taxes a year later on planes, snow machines (her husband owes a snow machine company), and other personal property. There's no doubt she started off with "good ol boy" tactics, and no reason to think she's given them up, based upon her actions.

Man arrested for posing as LA Dodger!

A 47-year-old man pleaded not guilty Friday to several charges including burglary and trespassing when he was found wandering Dodger stadium field with a glove and two baseballs. Ronald Higgens may have just had a "field of dreams" moment, but now it looks like he's going to pay for it. If convicted, the poor guy could do four years in prison!

Apparently the court is still trying to find him a lawyer. Talk about a bad day.

Paul Newman dies at 83

Legendary movie star Paul Newman has played his last roll, but will be remembered as a cultural icon with his rolls as cads and con men. He defined the American anti-hero in the 50s and 60s playing parts in such film classics as; Cool Hand Luke, Hud, The Hustler, The Sting, and Butch Cassidy and the Sun Dance Kid.

He defined cool. Personally, he was one of my favorite actors.
