Rallied by Bush, Skittish G.O.P. Now Embraces War as Issue - New York Times
The first thing I did after noting the strange placement of the top-of-the-fold headline (columns 4 and 5) was read the by-line. Adam Nagourney of Hillary Clinton 2000 Senate run fawning coverage fame.
I knew something worth noting would be written.
Apparently killed? Were they or weren't they? Were the bodies booby-trapped with bombs?
What is wrong with the Times?
Nevermind that the TOTF space was as long as the remainder of the article on the jump page.

- The approach might yet be upended by more problems in Iraq, as Republicans were reminded this week with reports about two American servicemen who were abducted, tortured and apparently killed

Europe's Green Image Clashes With Reliance on Coal - New York Times
Has anyone else noticed the new tactic of the Catastrophic Climate Change Club (The 4Cs)?
It is to state the number of tons of carbon dioxide each contributor to 3C spews. In this article, it is 10 meeeeeeeel-yun tons!!!!!
A tactic of a weak mind. 10 million??!?!?!? That is such a large number, but I have no idea where it comes from, but it is large and scary!
How much does an aircraft carrier weigh? 20,000 to 65,000 tons! Knowing that, you would think it could never float on water. After all, a Matchbox car sinks in the tub and it only weighs a couple ounces!

CNBC's Jim Cramer crosses a line - MarketWatch
Jim Cramer is an extremely knowledgable stockman.
And there is knowledge and wisdom available in every show if you are smart enough to see it.
However, he is the Emeril of Stocks.

Sunscreens faulted on cancer protection - Yahoo! News
Am I crazy to think the whole sunscreen industry is a scam?
Is the sun really deadly enough that you must slather sunscreen "apply liberally and often."
Doesn't that sound like Big Sunscreen forcing people to buy more and more product?
