Oct. Text){ var x; x = document.getElementById('bctags'); x.innerHTML = ''; x.innerHTML = myText; } Sorry, your version of Flash doesn't support this video. Please download the latest version at adobe.com. You'll be glad you did. SO the veterans have had their fun with Joey Dorsey. 8220;At first, I wasn’t going to do it,” Dorsey said. And? 8220;I did it,” he said. Why? 8220;Ron told me to,” he said. Ron Artest also appreciates the things Joey Dorsey brings to the Rockets. Artest sees an instinctive rebounder and a relentless defensive player, a blue-collar contributor in every sense of the word. 8220;He can rebound with anybody,” Artest said. “He’s strong. He’s 270, looks like he’s about 250, so there is a lot of muscle there. Dorsey is also talkative, playful and completely fearless about this new world. That was on display in Tuesday’s 96-93 preseason win at Toyota Center when he w...

Presidential candidates John McCain and Barack Obama debated in Nashville, Tennessee, on Tuesday night. NBC's Tom Brokaw moderated the debate. BROKAW: Good evening from Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee. I'm Tom Brokaw of NBC News. Tonight's debate is the only one with a town hall format. The Gallup Organization chose 80 uncommitted voters from the Nashville area to be here with us tonight. Neither the commission nor the candidates have seen the questions. Each candidate will have two minutes to respond to a common question, and there will be a one-minute follow-up. The audience here in the hall has agreed to be polite, and attentive, no cheering or outbursts. The only exception in the hall is right now, as it is my privilege to introduce the candidates, Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois and Sen. Gentlemen, we want to get under way immediately, if we can. Since you last met at Ole Miss 12 days ago, the world has changed a great deal, and not for the better. And, Sen. Obama,...

George W. DANGER WILL ROBINSON! Former NBC anchorman (and interim Meet the Press host) Tom Brokaw is tonight's presidential debate moderator, in the “town hall” format. Moderators usually choose a slate of “uncommitted voters” who ask mostly liberal questions. Charlie Gibson broke that mold in 2004 – and he’s the only one of the four 2004 moderators who didn’t get a repeat invitation. If anyone wonders if Brokaw is part of the liberal media, see our Greatest Tilts 1983-2003. Obama Christ: "Senator Obama, who had an Ivy league education and could’ve gone to Wall Street, went back to Chicago, on the South Side. As you know, his supporters have defended him for working with poor families, many of whom lost their jobs when the Gary steel mills closed. In that mocking fashion, it seemed to a lot of people that you were belittling the role of a community organizer, and it led to this button -- it was addressed to Senator Palin, because she also talked about it -- ‘Jesus ...

Is It Really Wise to Expand the FBI's Investigative Techniques? Mr. According to recent reporting by the Washington Post, in October 2008 FBI officials plan to expand their arsenal of investigative tools in the fields of crime detection, intelligence collection, and counter-terrorism. Within weeks, with little more than rumor as the basis of their probes, FBI agents will be allowed to spy on Americans using the techniques of physical surveillance, confidential informants, and conducting interviews without divulging their identities as FBI agents. Additionally, with authorization from either the president or director of national intelligence, FBI agents will be able to collect intelligence within the United States on behalf of allied foreign intelligence organizations. Should American citizens be concerned about these investigative expansions? Should Americans fear that their (formerly) dearly-held civil liberties might be under threat? The short answer to that question is an unq...

The advancement of technology often makes life simpler. The One Card system started to be implemented this fall at Clearwater Christian College, and system administrators believe it will make campus life a bit easier for students. Spring semester, 2008, the administration announced its plan to use a new card system. Joe Valentin, Director of Auxiliary Services, is directing the transition and says it will be a convenient tool for College. "The purpose of the CougarCard is to offer students a greater selection of goods and services, making their transition to CCC easier and more pleasant. The card provider, Heartland Campus Solutions, has built a system that lets us add more features, as we feel we need them. The basic idea is that since everyone needs an ID, let's add value to it to benefit the campus community in as many ways as possible." According to Valentin, the benefits are numerous, and the card will serve in the following capacities. 1. ID Maker: The card saves time by impr...
