Only two more shopping days until I return to the final days of the City Council campaigns. Then, we'll have fun taking apart the campaigns. Any dirt yet? Any mudslinging. You know, the good stuff. Or is everyone behaving? My wife is now looking over my shoulder -- literally -- so I have to pretend that I'm just checking ball scores. See ya in two days. Here's Wild Card ...

Sony, Skype calling gamers

The consumer electronics industry has for many years now tried to shoe-horn a game (some would say game-like) experience on the mobile phone device, but this year, Sony swims upstream in the same waters. It has taken the PSP handheld game platform and turned it into a mobile phone -- albeit with limitations. But the value proposition for consumers is win-win.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Gary Coleman Paid? Foxy Free? Budden Calls Jay-Z ...

Foxy is using whatever means she can to get out of Rikers Island. The latest is she recently met with the presiding judge and there is a glimmer of hope. The only doctor that has been able to help Foxy and her ear situation is located in California. As expected the DA was hating, saying that there should be no sentence reduction even of Fox was dying. The judge will rule later in the month.

I don't know what kind of contract Brooke Hogan had with Scott Storch. I would assume the Hulkster can get her out off any contract –even Scott Storch. Well, Brooke has a myspace page that has her record label status as, “Trying to find a good one!" She signed to Scott Storch's Storchavelli Records in 2006 and hasn't done a lot musically.

I don't intend to blame the plight of the newspaper business on George Bush. He did not invent our great disrupter, the internet. (That, you recall, was Al Gore.) The Bush administration has merely fed a current of public antipathy that has been running against us for a long time, a consequence of our own failings and, perhaps, a tendency to blame the messenger when news is bad. But Mr Bush has contributed to that unwelcoming environment in at least two significant ways.

First, he has rejected out of hand the quaint idea of our founders that the press has a constructive role to play in American society, and that this role consists in supplying citizens with the information to judge whether they are being well served by their government. The Bush administration believes that information is power, and that like most other forms of power it is not to be shared with those the regime does not trust.

Do Pilots Practice Crash Landings?

Doctors delivered an electric shock to Vice President Dick Cheney's heart on Monday, jolting it back into a normal rhythm after they discovered an irregular heartbeat. This is the latest entry in an astonishing résumé of cardiac problems for the 66-year-old, who was back at work on Tuesday. Cheney has endured four heart attacks, two angioplasties, quadruple bypass surgery, a defibrillator implanted in his heart, aneurysms behind both knees, and a blood clot in his left leg. Isn't it time the vice president had a heart transplant?

Nope, he's way too healthy. Transplants are considered a last-ditch effort to save a patient. If the procedure works, he must take powerful immunosuppressants for the rest of his life. To be a transplant candidate, Cheney would have to suffer from end-stage heart failure, where the heart muscle is too weak to deliver blood to the rest of the body.
