    Variety ^ | Fri., Jan. 11, 2008, 1:16pm PT | TATIANA SIEGEL
    Longtime Hollywood publicist Julian Myers will turn 90 soon. And he worries the end may be near ... for Hollywood. Myers frets that the WGA stalemate -- with all of its acrimony, vitriol and job losses -- is a harbinger of ill things for the industry. "The strike impasse is speeding the end of Hollywood filmmaking and television production," says Myers, who has been working in the biz since 1939 and is still an IATSE member. "There are more union contracts coming up for renewal, and already unionists are crossing union lines. IATSE is urging its members to go right...

    Rasmussen Reports ^ | 1/1/2008 | Scott Rasmussen
    The number of Americans who consider themselves to be Republicans jumped nearly two percentage points in December to 34.2%. That’s the largest market share for the Republican brand in nearly two years, since January 2006 (see history from January 2004 to present). At the same time, the number of Democrats fell to 36.3%. That’s down a point compared to a month ago. During 2007, the number of Democrats has ranged from a low of 35.9% in July to a high of 37.8% in February.... These results are based upon tracking surveys of 15,000 adults per month. The margin of sampling...

    SPRINGFIELD, Mass. - Expect cheers among hardcore online game enthusiasts when they learn Merriam-Webster's Word of the Year. Or, more accurately, expect them to "w00t." "W00t," a hybrid of letters and numbers used by gamers as an exclamation of happiness or triumph, topped all other terms in the Springfield-based dictionary publisher's online poll for the word that best sums up 2007. Merriam-Webster's president, John Morse, said "w00t" was an ideal choice because it blends whimsy and new technology. "It shows a really interesting thing that's going on in language. It's a term that's arrived only because we're now communicating electronically...

    Apple will take advantage of a September 12 media event to introduce the second-generation iPod nano, an updated 5G iPod, and upgraded iMacs, sources tell Think Secret.

The event will be held near Apple's Cupterino, Calif. headquarters and will be carried by a private satellite feed to a central London location for members of the European press. While Apple will not be taking advantage of Apple Expo Paris—which also kicks off September...

    INDIAN RIVER COUNTY — A 45-year-old Vero Beach woman accused of having a sexual relationship with a boy since he was 8 years old was arrested Tuesday and held without bond at the Indian River County Jail. Elizabeth Filsell, 45, was arrested about 4:30 a.m. and charged with two counts of capital sexual battery on a child. Sheriff's detectives started to investigate Filsell on Monday evening after a man reported the boy, now age 14, was attempting to pull swimsuits off of other children while swimming in a pool earlier in the day, according to the arrest affidavit. The man's...

    Please read and pass on. Make it's way around the U.S.A So if the government determined that it is against the law for the words" under God" to be on our money, then, so be it. And if that same government decides that the "Ten Commandments "are not to be used in or on a government installation, then so be it. And since they already have prohibited any prayer in the schools,on which they deem their authority, then so be it. I say "so be it' because I would like to think that smarter people than I are in a...

    Since the Bible God is advertised by Christians to be the only true source of wisdom, justice, and morality in the universe, it's only proper to examine what this "God" says about one of the major problems of our fallen human society. The Bible God is declared the one true fountain of wisdom in the following: James 3:17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. The problem to be investigated is that of adultery and unfaithful spouses. God...

    Security experts are tracking a new malware variant, targeting the MySQL open-source database, which has likely infected thousands of Windows systems. According to a report posted on the SANS Institute's Internet Storm Center site by SANS chief technology office Johannes Ullrich, the attacking code is a variant of an existing strain of nework "bot" known as "Wootbot." This variant is especially notable, said experts, since it is one of the first to target MySQL. As with similar types of malware, the bot runs in the background, allowing MySQL to run normally while it contacts a remote Internet Relay Chat (IRC)...
