Hot Music

New, Politics and Notes

Teflon no more , John Gotti passed away.


Snooze Power: Midday nap may awaken learning potential. This is hot. We need some studies done and then make the nap an essential part of the office.

Lake Champlain houses the beast known as Champ, could we be related?

Zarzynski says he doesn't believe the stories about a 30- or 40-foot monster, theorizing it's more like 12 to 15 feet long, as in the Mansi photo. He believes, however, as do many others, that Champ is a surviving prehistoric beast, most likely a plesiosaur, a marine reptile with a snakelike neck and four large flippers. Plesiosaurs ruled the seas during the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods, during which time dinosaurs dominated the land and pterosaurs the skies. The plesiosaurs varied from 15 to 40 feet in length and became extinct, most people assume, 65 million years ago.

Who believes Zarzynski, hundreds of witnesses, Samuel de Champlain, and other Champ believers? The Vermont House of Representatives, for one body, which passed H.R. 19 in April 1982, protecting Champ "from any willful act resulting in death, injury, or harassment." The New York State Assembly and State Senate followed suit the next year, also protecting Champ against death, injury, or harassment, and "encouraging report of sighting of such animals."


Blogging goes big time at Berkley. Please call me a journalist.

“The Berkeley class on blogging is the latest in a series of signs that the media establishment is starting to warm up to what was long seen as legitimate journalism's loud-mouthed kid sister.”

Sony vs. Sony…How the company is interestingly playing both sides of the electronic music battle. Sony has been both fighting the bootlegging of music and pushing blank discs, mp3 players and CD burners. See Sunday’s blog for a further discussion of the coming apocalypse for the music industry.



Michael Young, from Beirut, parallels World Cup soccer to the globalization movement. Further proof that sports has become the definitive religion for the masses.



“More meaningfully, soccer personifies the benefits of globalization, as well as its worst flaws. It is a blend of multinational administrative corruption, salutary free-market capitalism, and old-fashioned chauvinism. As The Economist noted recently: "Football is not just a sport or a business. At the top level it is also closely intertwined with politics and national pride."

This is one of the most thought provoking and enjoyable blogs that I have run into in cyber space. Take a minute and check out these students from Oxford, you won’t be disappointed.

Gazing outside the window the sunny skies dwindle
And now it's full of stars a hurling comet soars
While during the body slumber the soul begins to wander
To dream dimensions see the inner conscious doesn't pause
Keeps moving where it's bound to say now I lay me down to
After that stretch and yawn energy left and gone
The sandman's on your shoulder whispering in your ear he told you
Let all your problems go tonight I'm rapping hear my song
A day of work completed a night of rest is needed
Almost done with a book but eyelids to heavy to read it
The fireplace is kindling snug with your queen and building
About the victories tomorrow's gonna bring your way


peace - christian
