EMI and Boxman's advertising campaign for new Roxette releases is starting to work. "Wish I Could Fly" single (4.18 USD version) has already climbed to #3 on their single chart - even though it hasn't even been released yet! $4.56 "Wish I Could Fly" is #13. Boxman takes pre-orders from all over the world.
According to Eric Bolling of Fox Business’ “Follow the Money,” the Muppets are trying to turn kids into communists. While most of us may think it absurd to ascribe political stances to puppets — least of all the eternally lovable Kermit and Co. — Bolling had no problem arguing that the Muppets are anti-corporation. Bolling’s assertions are based on the fact that the villain in the new Muppets movie is an oil tycoon — which, of course, obviously means that the movie tries to convince kids that all oil companies are evil.
Android security researcher Trevor Eckhart has made himself an enemy in software company Carrier IQ. The company is unhappy with Eckhart because of a video he posted on YouTube earlier this week, in which he reveals to the public that their smartphones are, essentially, tapped by Carrier IQ’s software. On HTC, Blackberry, Nokia and other phones, Carrier IQ’s software runs in the background, unbeknownst to users and records text messages, web searches, phone numbers and so forth.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced on Friday that it would begin an investigation into the Chevrolet Volt. According to tests administered on the Volt, the electric car’s battery may be in danger of catching fire after severe crashes. Fortunately for Volt owners, General Motors is not leaving them out in the cold. Not only is the company reaching out to every Volt driver to assure them of the car’s safety, but it is also offering these owners temporary cars for the duration of the investigation if they feel unsafe getting into their Volts for the time being.
You probably won’t be shocked to hear that coverage of yet another pepper spray incident cropped up in new sources, but you will be surprised to learn that this incident is not related to Occupy Wall Street. At a Wal-Mart in Los Angeles on Black Friday, a woman pepper sprayed other shoppers so that she could prevent them from reaching certain merchandise before her.
It is safe to assume that most of the protestors who join Occupy Wall Street and its related movements around the world know and accept the fact that they may be arrested before they get involved. Such is the risk of dissent. However, journalists are less likely to expect to end up in holding cells . They’re just covering the events, not transgressing social order. Regardless, more than a few journalists have wound up on the receiving end of police force or arrested since they have started covering the protests.
A new Web domain extension, .xxx, is currently in the process of being launched. This extension is marketed specifically toward adult websites. It is meant to make it easier for Internet users to separate adult content from the rest of the Web. While this new extension was designed with pornography in mind, some decidedly non-pornographic companies decided to register .xxx websites, including a few colleges.
Sometimes, it seems like our state’s public employees will never learn that the Internet is not a private sphere. Union Township teacher Viki Knox angered many people across New Jersey last month because of the anti-gay comments she made on her Facebook page. Now, 29-year-old Hector Rosado, a member of the Orange Police Department, has been fired for posting racial slurs on his Twitter account.
Low-income households will soon have an easier time connecting to the Internet, thanks to cable companies. As part of the Federal Communications Commission-led initiative Connect to Compete, families whose children are eligible for free school lunches will only pay $9.95 for broadband Internet. According to The Associated Press, Microsoft also pledged to sells PCs with its Office software for $250 for those families. Microsoft and Best Buy are also offering technology training. Morgan Stanley will provide microfinance services for community-based financial institutions. About 5.5 million homes that currently do not have broadband access will be eligible, according to the National Cable & Telecommunications Association. We give the FCC and those involved in the program a laurel for their willingness to help lower-income families compete in an ever-developing world.
Ever since President Barack Obama introduced even the notion of a health care reform, he met persistent resistance on the issue. Thus far, six appeals courts have seen challenges to the health care law, with the latest being the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. The American Center for Law and Justice filed the case, on the grounds that requiring people to purchase health care infringed on their personal freedom.
Culture, though largely intangible, costs money. To cultivate a shared sense of history — and the pride that comes along with it — communities have to shell out the cash necessary to maintain historic sights, museums and so forth. In times of perpetual budget crisis, however, scraping together such large sums of money can often be difficult, resulting in landmarks which lapse into disrepair.
America is not a theocracy, and the Constitution makes it quite clear that the founding fathers never intended on a state-imposed religion. Despite this, we still find instances today of politicians not quite grasping the concept that, in the United States, you are free to practice whatever religion you desire. Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear participated in a ground-blessing ceremony last Friday for Indian company Flex Film. Gubernatorial candidate David Williams, a Republican, has a problem with this.
Prime Minister David Cameron took a bold step this weekend when, while attending the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in Australia, U.K., he announced that countries that ban homosexuality would lose British aid unless they started to practice tolerance. We are used to seeing politicians act as tepid people-pleasers who say what those around them want them to say.
The It Gets Better Project has been a major name in anti-bullying movements since its inception in 2010. During all that time, not a single Republican elected official has participated in the campaign — until now. Ten members of New Jersey’s congressional delegation have teamed up to release and video for the project, and three of the members are Republicans, making this the first time that GOP-backed officials have joined the It Gets Better project to condemn bullying.
Way back in 2008, when Barack Obama was running for president on his platform of “Change we can believe in,” one of the many avenues of progress he touted was the removal of U.S. troops from Iraq. Three years later, he’s finally delivering on that promise. Obama announced Friday that every one of our soldiers would be out of Iraq at the end of the year, after nine long years of war.
For the past 80 years, The FBI has operated with an dangerously narrow definition of rape, which limited the act to “the carnal knowledge of a female forcibly and against her will.” Such a faulty conceptualization of the crime excludes a plethora of other horrifying atrocities from being legally handled as rapes — including nonconsensual anal or oral sex, rape committed with an object and cases where the victims were men or transgender.
Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., is trying rather hard to become the Republican Party’s presidential nominee. Unfortunately for her, she just cannot help shooting herself in the foot, so to speak. Bachmann’s latest slip-up is geographical in nature. Expressing discontent with President Barack Obama’s decision to send 100 U.S. troops to Uganda, Bachmann asserted, “the president, he put us in Libya.
Halloween is supposed to be a fun time for children, a time to dress up and, for once, safely accept candy from strangers. In order to ensure the safety of these young trick-or-treaters — i.e., make sure taking candy from strangers remains a viable option for the holiday — legislators of Riverside County in California are considering a measure that would effectively shut sex offenders out of Halloween festivities altogether.
The University has always been pretty good at utilizing new technologies for the benefit of the student population. Take, for example, the recent creation of Scarlet Apps, a new system of online tools, which students can use for email, a chat client and so forth. Scarlet Apps is the result of the marriage of myRutgers with a collection of Google services.
Despite the economic shambles in which our country is currently floundering, a lot of people still favor the “if you’re unemployed, go get a job” narrative. Of course, it isn’t that easy in reality, thanks to the fairly common practice of businesses refusing to consider applicants who have been out of work for extended periods of time. A survey by the National Employment Law Project discovered more than 150 job listings on employment websites excluding candidates who were not currently employed.
