WASHINGTON, May 31 — After vowing to steer a greater share of antiterrorism money to the highest-risk communities, Department of Homeland Security officials on Wednesday announced 2006 grants that slashed money for New York and Washington 40 percent, while other cities including Omaha and Louisville, Ky., got a surge of new dollars.

Homeland security officials said the grants were a result of a more sophisticated evaluation process

Yes, I must have plundered monasteries in a past life. Now I pay for my sins. :)

In a post to someone a couple hours ago, I suggested that "It's possible he's done well covering up extreme biases".

Working on suppressing embarrassments would be him and his publicist, and the cops may have done it out of purely Christian values. Celebs have more reasons and resources to avoid embarrassment than I do since the press is hounding them.

He's a good entertainer is all we know for certain, isn't it? Beyond that all we really know is That he's human.

If sex were truly not a spectator sport, the porn industry would not be what it is these days.

But sex as a spectator sport is about as much fun as watching someone else watch paint dry.

I detest O'Hare. Detroit, on the other hand, is about the easiest airport in which to make connections (as long as you don't run into weather problems).

But don't get me going about airports... I've got a job/career change ahead and I'm trying to decide which to make the bid for:
1) see the world / airports / crammed-full-airplanes, nothing ever gets done at home, fame, job security, or
2) stay at home, practice more portable skills, re-learn words such as "hobbies" and "yardwork" and "wife."

I think #2 looks best.

Based on the "no airports" factor, of course. *\;-)

We could be from Ohio.

And that would be bad... how?

Our minister is from Ohio. And so is one of our state rep. candidates -- Korean-born but, I learned, raised in Ohio. I thought I'd recognized a Midwestern conservative...

Well like I think I said earlier, the biggest thing to me was he was drunk on the road because I've had my neck broken by a drunken driver when I was just a kid.

I don't doubt Mel was given a pass before if he cooperated and didn't have a history. He has a church down there, pumps lots of money into the community and being famous can get you some bit of extra special treatment.

The fact he was drunk and speeding was the worst part for me.

I don't like that antisemitic stuff he said at all and even though drunk I think it will be remembered by most folks for the next 15 years.

The one funny think I read in all this was he asked the arresting Chinese officer if he was a Jew?
Give me odds on that one. LOL

No, I'm not. #2 is *almost* but not quite the default. I'm drafting my bid for #1 -- but kind of hoping they say no so I am free to move aggressively towards #2. If I do nothing, I get stuck somewhere in-between, stuck in the worst of all worlds.

If I "achieve" #1, well, at least my cameras get more of a workout.
