Can you believe the headline news is about Obama's new dog?

Q: Wow, isn't there a war going on in the Middle East?
I guess Obama's dog is more important.

A: I agree, in part. Like you, I couldn't care less about Obama's dog. Apparently the animal rights groups are all up in arms because he got his dog from a breeder rather than a shelter. That goes right up there near the top of my personal list of "Things I Don't Care About."

On the other hand, maybe we should be thankful that the media is forced to manufacture a story about the O-dog. If they're making such a big splash about this, hopefully that means they've got minutes to fill on their news shows (or inches to fill in their newspaper columns). If they have free time, that must mean that there aren't any depressing updates from the Middle East, and our economy hasn't (yet) completely imploded. No news is good news, right? Someone above rightfully noticed that there is always a war going on in the Middle East...

(see, I can be an optimist if I want!)

    Seriously. If it isn't about his dog, it's about Michelle's fashion and style... and we're supposed to care because?
  • I ♥ Osgood says:
    Yeah I was surprised that his new dog was on the front page of the newspaper on Sunday and it seems so trivial...I mean sure it's a cute dog but who cares? we have more important things in our life than obsessing over the president's puppy

  • Locke says:
    pity the press it's been a slow new's week and the war just doesn't bring the rating's it once did.
  • julynyc says:

  • nautica17 says:
    The media is nothing but show business. If you want news these days, you have to go find it yourself. Who cares what dog he has.
  • katy c says:
    Yes there is a war going on. Everyone is broke and unemployment is rising. We are all greatly aware of this. Therefore, I think it is refreshing to see something fun and upbeat in the news.

    I think we could all do with a some happy news right about now.

    It doesn't have anything to do with one being more important then the other. There is plenty of time on the TV and room on the internet to discuss the war AND a new puppy. Don't fret.

    It's so stupid, it's reached major status on the TV news in Australia, does anyone care?? I'ts not ******* 9/11.
  • C. S says:
    I too am sick of the love affair between the liberal media and the Obamas. Why not just have an Obama network for those who care? All Obama All The Time. Anyone else notice how the dog they chose is black AND white? Think Michael Jackson- Paul McCartney song, "Ebony and Ivory".

Make up a headline for a news article that you might read about yourself in one day?

    man at wits end did the unthinkable today , in his wake there are a number casualties and deaths the details are yet unclear, it seems some one was at a bar talking about issues that were under confidentiality laws and it seems the bud light wasn't enough to keep the suspect grounded .

Pay fat people to slim news headline. What is your opinion?

    Questionable.

    I think that this is only one solution among others to tackle health issues. there is no one size fit all solution. If you see things that way, you could argue that this kind of incentive could encourage -some- people and that would be a benefit in the long term. The problem is that you cannot OBLIGE people to live in a healthy way, and that's lucky or we'd be in dictatures. On the other hand, many people are uneducated/ignorant/stupid/don't care/blah and health problems are becoming really worrying.

    Still, from a moral point of view: it's a bit puzzling to see that you "reward" the wrong behaviours. Why then, couldn't _I_ ask for money since I don't smoke, are normal weight, use condoms, whatever? I'd be rich!

    If those schemes work, then a pragmatic approach would be to use them, in the hope that good habits will be kept once you stop giving money (it remains to be seen). But it's still a bit of an uncomfortable thought...

    Giving free training sessions on eating healthy, etc. would seem much more acceptable to me. But the efficiency of such an approach would have to be demonstrated...

Yahoo News Need to Wise-up?

Q: Why Does Yahoo upload such pointless and dumb news as the Yahoo News headlines? They've done this many times before and with all the death and destruction that is going on in the world, Yahoo think Dot Cotton in Eastenders facing problems with the Credit Crunch is more important than real life news and Eastenders is only fiction. This is so gay.

Attacks Grab Headlines, but No Evidence of Rising Human-Grizzly Encounters New York Times

Last week's attacks were the encourage fatal encounter between grizzlies and people this summer in the Yellowstone area.

In June, a 430-hammer out adult male grizzly that had recently been released by members of the Interagency Grizzly Stand up to Study Team, which is responsible for monitoring Yellowstone's grizzlies, mauled 70-year-old Erwin Sincere Evert, a botanist from Park Ridge, Ill. The victim was on a hike from his cabin, located about six miles from Yellowstone's east passage in Wyoming ( Land Letter , July 22).

That incident was the first fatal attack by a grizzly in the Yellowstone section in a quarter-century. The last fatality had occurred in 1986, when a photographer got too close to an mature female bear in Yellowstone National Park's Hayden Valley.

After the June onslaught, wildlife officials initially attempted to capture the bear, but later irrefutable to kill the animal after those attempts failed ( Land Letter , June 24).

Another child-grizzly encounter made headlines last week when celebrity zookeeper Jack Hanna, who is executive emeritus of the Columbus Zoo in Ohio, used pepper spray to ward off a 125-pelt grizzly bear cub as he was hiking in Montana's Glacier National Park ( Berth Letter , July 29).

While such encounters serve to heighten media attention and stoke notable fears about bear attacks, Wyoming Game and Fish spokesman Eric Kezsler said there have not been more encounters than customary this year. Nevertheless, he said, conflicts between bears and people could become more common as Yellowstone's uphold population, now estimated at about 600 bears, continues to increase.

"As that population grows and expands, their district will be expanding out to places with more human activity, so we would expect more conflicts with humans as that happens," he said.

Even so, the extent of human-bear encounters remains relatively small. More than 62 million people visited Yellowstone Resident Park from 1980-2002, but there were only 32 injuries caused by bears during that time era. Park officials estimate the chance of being injured by a bear while in the park is around 1 in 1.9 million.

In developed areas, grizzly bears injured an normally of one person a year from the 1930s through the 1950s, but that number rose to four annually during the 1960s before tapering off again to one wound every two years during the 1970s. From 1980 to 2002, there were only two grizzly bear-caused injuries to people in developed areas.

Spawn-related injuries in backcountry areas, a rare occurrence before 1970, increased to an normally of approximately one per year during the 70s, 80s and 90s, a trend attributed to increased popularity in backcountry distraction.
