Thornton wants more Cash (Dec 11 2003 00:28 GMT) - Okay, I admit, that was just a cheap headline to get you to read this article thinking that Joe Thornton wants more money from the Bruins. Actually, we're bringing you a lighter-side link tonight. Bostonbruins.com asked around the locker room to find out what kind of music the Bruins like. It turns out that Jumbo Joe likes Johnny Cash, Brian Rolston has seen Pearl Jam like 12 times, and Ted Donato and the Missus dig the Dropkick Murphys. |

Average Joe's Melana & Jason on Jay Leno (Dec 11 2003 00:26 GMT) - I totally missed "The Average Joe Couple" on Jay Leno last night. I was like 5 minutes away from seeing them and just couldn't keep my eyes open any longer and woke up at like 4am with the TV still on. Yes, Jay's monolog put me to sleep (just kidding). Anyone want to recap it for me? Or better yet is there a copy of the dialog anywhere? |

A Cautionary tale (Dec 11 2003 00:26 GMT) - From the VW Wiki: It's always going to be hard for something new to get a look in. There is, of course, the economic reason that, for example, C/C++ guys are two a penny but Eiffel and Smalltalk guys aren't. This is one of the most misleading abuses of statistics around. Just because the probability that you hit a C++ programmer if you throw a rock into a crowd is very high, does not mean that the probability that he can replace _your_ C++ programmer is any higher than finding a replacement Eiffel or Smalltalk programmer. |

Secret War memorial to honor Hmong vets (Dec 11 2003 00:25 GMT) - Organizers raising money to build a memorial in Sheboygan for veterans of the Secret War in Laos say the monument could have state, regional and nationwide significance. So far the memorial's organizing committee has a design, a place to put the memorial and about $20,000 to build it, said Chasong Yang, executive director of the Hmong Mutual Assistance Association of Sheboygan. But organizers still need to raise about $135,000 to make their vision a reality.The memorial will explain how most Hmong fought on the side of the United States against communists in Laos and how, when the war ended, they faced reprisals.

Normalized trade with Laos is a very bad idea (Dec 11 2003 00:25 GMT) - As we celebrate the holiday season with family and food, it may be difficult to imagine that there are Laotian and Hmong-American families in the Twin Cities whose overseas relatives are now being systematically starved to death and massacred by the Pathet Lao regime that controls Laos. Indeed, there will be no joy for the Hmong and Lao minority people now surrounded in closed military zones in Laos. They are dying, not only at the brutal hands of the military of Laos and Vietnam, but also as a result of the misguided policy direction by the U.S. ambassador to Laos, the Bush administration and Rep. |
