U.S. Congressman Ted Poe (R-Houston/Beaumont)was on KTRH (Houston) this morning. He said that he had spoken with "moderate democrats", and reports that they are saying that healthcare is dead. It seems that there are a few House dems who have gotten the message.

MUQDADIYAH – U.S. and Iraqi Soldiers are collaborating on a bridge and road project to span the Diyala River, connecting villages here to the thriving city markets. While the nearest market is tantalizingly within view just across the river, farmers here currently have no way to cross the flow.

For farmers on foot herding livestock, roads leading up to the new bridge will be expansive for this purpose. "The bridge and road will allow...

In his Salon.com article titled “Our Misguided Fight Against Somali Pirates,” John Feffer from the Institute for Policy Studies asks “Those teenage high-seas renegades are not about to team up with terrorists, so why is the U.S. military devoting so much attention to them?” While Freer is correct in pointing out that the pirates and terrorists are not ideological allies, it is a mistake to assume that the pirates are not willing to become valued business partners of radical Islamic terrorist groups including those linked to Al-Qaeda.

Missing dinosaur link found in Argentina (omnivore, it ate everything inc. plants and meat)

BUENOS AIRES (AFP) – Scientists have found fossil remains of an omnivorous dinosaur in Argentina -- a missing link to the carnivores, a researcher said Monday. "It is an omnivore -- in other words it ate everything (plants and meat) -- which is the missing link between carnivorous dinosaurs and giant four-footed herbivores," said Oscar Alcober, also director of the Natural Sciences Museum in San Juan, 1,200 kilometers (745 miles) west of Buenos Aires.
