| College Crowd to Clinton in East L.A.: Yes You Can
CLINTON speaks in "us against them terms" and OBAMA speaks of ONE AMERICA. Basically, he is asking in fact urging us to get involved and take back AMERICA from divisiveness and special interests. OBAMA is refreshing AND EMPOWERING while CLINTON is stale and I'll do it for you. .

Yahoo! teams up with US newspapers
Check out the Editor's Blog for the silicon.com chief's take on the hot tech issues of the moment. Yahoo! chairman and CEO Terry Semel said in a statement: "We believe the local segment is largely untapped and provides significant opportunities to expand audience engagement and subsequently grow local advertising." The deal fits in with the online advertising boom that has driven business for, among others, Yahoo!'s rival Google. Other potential innovations that could come out of the deal may include search and content capabilities for local newspaper websites, Yahoo! said. The consortium of seven newspaper groups consists of 176 local newspapers across 38 states. These include major dailies like The Dallas Morning News, The San Francisco Chronicle and The New Haven Register.
Daytona 500 shaping up to be a thriller
This Sunday, I think we are headed toward a classic Hendrick/Toyota confrontation. Another car you should keep an eye on is that No. 22 Caterpillar Toyota Camry, driven by Dave Blaney. I don't think you can underestimate Bill Davis' operation. We've been giving credit to Joe Gibbs during the off-season, but after doing more research I found out that it's been a collaboration. Bill Davis has created the standard for Toyota since its conception. We may have been overlooking his due diligence and everybody at Toyota working through this to make the Toyota better. I definitely do not want to sell him short in what he's contributed and what his operation does for Toyota because they have definitely been the cornerstone of this Toyota operation since the beginning. We've heard about how certain members of the Joe Gibbs organization have contributed but I've also been told recently that it's the same way with Bill's organization.
