    When Schaefer retired, Perino moved to England to marry businessman Peter McMahon, whom she had met on a flight. While there, she spent time training their short-haired Vizsla, named Henry. Now, when she says, "Tell us what you really think about John Kerry," Henry fetches a flip-flop. Asked if "anybody thinks that Bill Clinton should be in jail," Henry barks.

    Sky News ^ | 29 April 2005 | Finalapproach29er
    Doctors have taken stem cells from a dead donor and transplanted them into a blind woman, allowing her to see for the first time in years. The pioneering surgery was carried out on Deborah Catlyn, who was blind in one eye through a childhood accident and lost the sight in her other eye after acid was thrown in her face at a nightclub. She feared she would never see her new daughter, Miracle, but just a month after the baby was born, Deborah had the operation. Surgeons grew the cells in a laboratory to form a thin layer and after...

    CBS interupted CSI with 5 minutes left to report Arafat's death, and my mother is pissed as can be. Does anybody on the West Coast know how CSI ended? I'd be grateful to anybody who saw it it for an explanation. Thank you.

    opinion | 8 Sept 04 | FinalApproach29er
    An excerpt from Steyn's latest has me suspicious that a slaughter of schoolkids is planned for America soon-maybe before the election. Here is Steyn excerpt: Could what happened in Beslan happen in the US? Two months ago, the Minneapolis Star-Tribune reported on a fellow called Mohamad Kamal Elzahabi, a suspected terrorist who'd fought with his fellow jihadi in Chechnya and somehow wound up in Minnesota, where he'd applied for licences to transport hazardous materials and drive school buses. *** Now, what if some less suspicious "white-looking" Chechen, or female, or some local recruit(s) starts driving school bus and and shows...

    Young people need to know the pressure Reagan faced in 1981-82. Like Jackie Robinson, who broke the color barrier in baseball in the late 1940's, the Conservative pioneer Reagan faced the same powerful hate and insults. He was called every name in the book, including an "amiable dunce" and the favorite cuss word of the left: "racist". Like Jackie Robinson (a Republican, by the way), he was the right man for the time & task. He needed to be strong enough to withstand the baiting, and withering hurricane of hatred. Carter's 1980-81 budget drove the US into further recession. Employment...

    I think Gore had a aviation commision that proposed airport changes and it was buried when contributers started giving Gore campiagn money. Gore should be blamed for the lapses at Logan (BOSTON). He knew it was bad and did nothing HOW RIGHT YOU ARE!! Have you seen the following article? Deception for dollars By Jack Cashill © 2001 WorldNetDaily.com On September 20, The Boston Globe broke the story of how the so-called Gore Commission failed conspicuously to address airline safety. The Globe claims this failure "represents the clearest recent public example of the success that airlines have long had in...

    W did not close the sale today. Here is what he needs to say to win this arguement resoundingly: 1-"Saddam was going to be taken out during my term. Not only was he helping terrorists, the 12 years of sanctions were turing the Arab world against us." 2-"Because of 9/11, and the believe in WMD'S, I moved up the timetable a year or two. I didn't want to give more time to a man who has a grudge against the US to plot against us." 3-"While I still believe WMD's exist, people should know war was enevitable. Giving the Hussien...

    Of all the Democrat whining about the black voters at that college that didn't get to vote, and the suppossed voter rolls that were cleansed (according to the lefties)that liberals say would have put AlGORE over the top, we forgot something: Part of Florida is in the central time zone! The liberal media called the election for Gore and many people in the panhandle didn't vote. The "redneck riviera" as Joe Scarborough calls it, is Bush country; a lot of people either didn't go to vote or left the lines at the polls when the state was called for A.G....

    September 19, 2003 Guards at Tomb of the Unknowns Stand Tall By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Filed at 3:02 a.m. ET ARLINGTON, Va. (AP) -- As the winds from Hurricane Isabel swept over Arlington National Cemetery, the soldiers who guard the Tomb of the Unknowns were given -- for the first time in history -- permission to abandon their posts and seek shelter. ``They told us that. But that's not what's going to happen,'' said Sgt. Christopher Holmes, standing vigil on overnight duty. ``That's never an option for us. It went in one ear and right out the other.'' The monument...

    WASHINGTON, Aug. 12 (JTA) — Sept. 2, 2003 is going to be a big day for Jonathan Pollard: The American Jewish spy is going to get another day in court. Pollard´s lawyers will have 40 minutes in a federal courtroom to explain why they should be permitted to continue efforts to rescind the life sentence he received 18 years ago for committing espionage for Israel. Years of tenacious motions by attorneys Jacques Semmelman and Eliot Lauer either have been vigorously opposed by government attorneys or allowed to languish in the court. Now U.S. District Court Judge Thomas Hogan has granted...

    Mars is Melting The south polar ice cap of Mars is receding, revealing frosty mountains, rifts and curious dark spots. Listen to this story via streaming audio, a downloadable file, or get help. August 7, 2003: It's not every day you get to watch a planetary ice cap melt, but this month you can. All you need are clear skies, a backyard telescope, and a sky map leading to Mars. Actually, you won't need the sky map because Mars is so bright and easy to find. Just look south between midnight and dawn on any clear night this month. Mars...

    I want to send thanks out to all at FR who sent prayers and other words of support and comfort to me. My Dad was the greatest man I'll ever know. A patriot who served first as a fighter pilot in the 1950's, the pilot of the C-119's and later C-130's, he was honored at Ft. Snelling national ceremony. Your prayers and well-wishes were helpful to me,and my mom saw some of your responses on the prayer thread and was very touched. Your expressions of faith and prayers, I'm convinced, have kept me strong (from collapsing ).
