Nichols: Charge fits dog crime (Oct 28 2003 05:59 GMT) - With Buster - an exuberantly healthy chocolate Lab - watching from the gallery, Gary Klink and his attorney Monday just absolutely mutilated Washington County Assistant District Attorney Holly Bunch. Or, based on the way Bunch defines the term, close enough. Klink is the poor guy from the Town of Addison who was overcharged with felony mistreatment of an animal after he was accused of tying the wayward dog to his truck last month and trying to lead him home. |

Takes Five: Rose Gruber (Oct 28 2003 05:59 GMT) - Weekly, sometimes daily, the Wisconsin Council on Problem Gambling hears from a desperate person, someone whose addiction has cost him hundreds of thousand of dollars, his home, his job and his family. But the people who don't call worry Rose Gruber the most, whom she may hear about when a relative calls to say a loved one committed suicide. Gruber, the executive director of the council, has helped problem gamblers find counseling for nearly 10 years. Many of them have hit bottom, she said, even stealing from employers and others to feed slot machines and their gambling habits. Gruber talked with Journal Sentinel reporter Tom Held, adding a reminder the council's hotline number is 1-800-GAMBLE-5. |

The $38 billion deficit that won't go away (10/28) (Oct 28 2003 05:57 GMT) - By Brendan Nyhan It's well-known that the press often uncritically repeats false information, particularly when the "fact" is colorful and helps to tell a simple story that is easily understood. Nonetheless, the scale and pervasiveness of these errors can be stunning. For example, in the debate over the California recall, reporters and pundits from across the local, regional and national media, egged on by a number of political figures, have consistently distributed misinformation about the size of the state budget deficit, falsely claiming that it was $38 billion after a July budget deal.

My body and I are at war. Again. (Oct 28 2003 05:56 GMT) - I'm lactose intolerant. However, I don't think I had enough in the way of milk products today to set it off, and furthermore, I don't think it would be going off in this fashion... I mean, I had a Starbucks white mocha, but ... this is not good. When I have too much of the lactose, without intervention, my body does speed up the outy-outy portion of the digestive system, shoving everything in front through in the attempt to have the evil milk sugar leave as soon as possible. |
