Robber escapes in inner tube!
Click here to read about an original robbery for the books: the robber posted an online ad on Craigslist seeking 27 laborers for a landscaping job. "Why," you ask?
Because he used these men as decoys in a bank robbery. He had them waiting across the street from the bank he was going to rob. The men were told to wear blue shirts, work boots, and safety vests to apply for the job. The reason why was that the robber himself was wearing the same attire and he wanted to create some confusion for the cops.
The guy then went to a nearby river, hopped into an inner tube, and made his getaway!

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.
