The accuser is Tchiya Amet, a “musician, healer, and teacher” who says she studied Galactic Astronomy in the graduate program at the University of Texas in Austin and she wanted to become the first black female astronaut. In a blog post in October 2014, she claimed she was a grad student at the same time Tyson was there, and that he drugged and raped her.

Vince Neil is set to perform at the Presidential inauguration of Donald Trump in Washington D.C. on January 20. The singer tells Billboard he was asked about his availability “months ago.” The longtime Motley Crue frontman will be performing with his own band. Neil is also set to appear on the next season of Celebrity Apprentice with Arnold Schwarzenegger, airing on NBC this January. “The promoters asked if I was available, and I said yes,” Neil reveals. “So we sent all of the band’s passports to the Secret Service so everybody can get in, and all of the crew people,...

Puffy pedant Neil deGrasse Tyson is enduring a meteor shower of criticism over his totally unscientific obsession with how stupid everyone is. Most notably, from The Federalist, which first published, “Another Day, Another Quote Fabricated by Neil deGrasse Tyson” and followed it up with, “Did Neil deGrasse Tyson Just Try to Justify Blatant Quote Fabrication.” Turns out, Neil is a complete d*****. I told ya so. I was first annoyed by his fans in the spring of this year. To hear Chris Hardwick slobber all over the guy and talk about his “presence,” you’d think he was describing a deity....

Bear with me, LI readers – I’m a little bit of a geek, so I find stories like these exciting. It might not be of interest to everyone, but I do think there’s one point about it that will resonate with all of you. Amazon founder Jeff Bezos started Bezos Expeditions (as well as the space exploration venture Blue Origin) out of his “passions for science, engineering, and exploration.” Bezos, like so many others, watched Apollo 11′s launch from his television as a child in 1969. Days prior, the mission began when five F-1 rocket engines fired together in a...

Obama finally orders flags at half-mast for Astronaut Neil Armstrong. Flags to flown at half mast on Friday, after his funeral... only.

On his Tuesday show, returning from a brief hiatus, conservative talker Mark Levin, author of “Ameritopia: The Unmaking of America,” gave an emotional, and a at times angry, defense of The Daily Caller’s Neil Munro. Munro was criticized and maligned by a number of public figures after his ill-timed question of President Barack Obama during a Rose Garden speech on Friday. Levin started out with criticism of the Republican response, which he called “pathetic-to-tepid” and chalked up to fear. “They so fear standing up to a demagogue, they so fear the media, they so fear their own inability to discuss...

Despite a categorical denial, evidence is mounting that leading Hawaii gubernatorial candidate Neil Abercrombie, is a covert socialist. What is worse, he may be lying about it. In response to a; July 12 post questioning whether that Mr Abercrombie was a member of America's largest marxist organization, Democratic Socialists of America, his campaign issued a statement saying; QUESTION: Was Neil a member of the Democratic Socialists of America or any other socialist or communist organization? ANSWER: NO. Neil has never been part of any socialist or communist organization. My original post included documentary evidence, from Democratic Socialists of America publications...

Obama File 106 hereNeil Abercrombie was a long time Hawaii Democratic Congressman and is currently running for the Governorship of that state. Barack Obama, Neil Abercrombie While in Congress, Neil Abercrombie was one of Barack Obama's earliest and most vocal supporters. This is not surprising, as there is a close Obama/Abercrombie family connection and seemingy many shared values. While studied at the University of Hawaii at Mânoa in the early 1960s, Abercrombie attended classes with and befriended current United States President Barack Obama's parents, Stanley Ann Dunham and the young Marxist economist Barak Obama. Sr. Obama, father and son, 1971...

“I am honored by the invitation to address you on this august occasion. It’s about time. Be warned, however, that I am not here to impress you; you’ll have enough smoke blown up your bloomers today. And you can bet your tassels I’m not here to impress the faculty and administration.

Wow, Neil Young, Conan and NBC really missed the boat for a great comic opportunity tonight on Conan's last show by NOT having Neil Young sing "Pants on the Ground", a la Jimmy's impression of Neil doing the same a couple of nights ago. Very sad and missed insight...IMO. (I was truly shocked when it Did Not happen)... And it's all NBCers. :-(=

Neil is back after having brain surgery! Looks like our prayers have paid off!!!

Canadian singer-songwriter Neil Young was interviewed on PBS's Charlie Rose show. The show, almost a complete hour, can be watched at this link. (Thanks to Jay for the tip.) If you can get past some of the political baggage, and you like Neil Young, it's an entertaining interview, where Young comes across funny, sincere and kind of sweetly naïve. With regard to the politics and his Let's Impeach the President phase, Young certainly is giving the distinct impression of having second thoughts. Some of what he says when Charlie prods him on the war: I look at it Charlie as...

The Dixie Chicks appear to be more popular than the president these days. President Bush's approval rating has plummeted, but the Chicks are on top of the pop and country charts with their first album since publicly criticizing Bush three years ago. They did it without the support of country radio, which largely ignored the Dixie Chicks after lead singer Natalie Maines told a London audience in 2003 that the group was ashamed Bush was from their home state of Texas. The new album, "Taking the Long Way," took the No. 1 spot Wednesday on the country albums chart and...

News program host chides retirement group for opposing Social Security reform while establishing mutual funds. Fox News host Neil Cavuto slammed AARP for entering the mutual fund marketplace after opposing President George W. Bush's proposal to invest Social Security funds in the stock market, calling the organization "hypocritical." AARP Vice President of Investment Services Nancy Smith defended the 36 million-member elder American advocacy group. "I'm not saying that all of the Social Security dough, just part of the dough [should be] invested in the market," said Cavuto, the host of Fox News's "Your World." Cavuto called the current Social Security...

Local war heroes and conservative bloggers say they don’t need Canadian anti-war rocker Neil Young around, anyhow. Young’s new album, “Living With War,” with its call for President Bush’s impeachment, is being dismissed as a feeble blast at the war by a wrinkled hippie whose life span has exceeded his relevance. Marine Lance Cpl. James Crosby of Saugus, who pushed for legislation to aid wounded soldiers, said the men and women fighting in Iraq, and the ones who came before them, are buying Young’s freedom of expression. “People are going to have their opinion,” said Crosby, who lost the use...

VIDEO of an Irish dancing protestor. What he is protesting, I have NO idea. Michael Flately has no need to worry about this step dancing JERK (see comment #1).

Stuart Varney is filling in for Neil Cavuto today. If I'm not mistaken this guy is very very Conservative. He is from England, and reminds me of Churchill a lot. This is the first time I've seen him host. But I've seen him take liberals APART before. He said he's going to be debating later in the hour.

<p>The executives at Grace Semiconductor Manufacturing Corp. know a thing or two about guanxi, the web of connections that fuel so much of business in China. The Shanghai-based company was co-founded by Jiang Mianheng, the son of former Chinese President Jiang Zemin. The other co-founder is Taiwan-born Winston Wong, whose father Y.C. Wang runs petrochemical maker Formosa Plastics and is probably the island's most powerful businessman. That's not to say the two don't have pretty solid credentials: Wong founded Nanya Technology Corp. in Taiwan, while Jiang has a PhD in physics from Drexel University in Philadelphia and is vice-president of the Chinese Academy of Science. But as they set out to raise the billions of dollars needed to start a semiconductor company, their true-blue bloodlines didn't hurt.</p>
