Interestingly, I know some (generally non-crazy) people who believe that the US Govt, as well as states and localities, make intentional decisions to *prevent* Spanish-speakers from learning English.

Phil - Actually, during the early part of the last century (during that huge wave of immigration from Eastern Europe), there were many "Americanization" programs aimed at those immigrant groups. Many were run by local civics groups and libraries, and some visited job sites to offer English instruction. The fear of immigrants ran high during that period, something eugenicists took advantage of.
- Katy S
An addition: One of the most famous racist anti-immigration texts from that period is Madison Grant's "The Passing of the Great Race, or The Racial Basis of European History." It's available on google books: http://books.google.com/books... I had the displeasure of reading it for my research. Unfortunately, it was very popular. This is the 1921 ed.

I've always wondered why zombies gun for brains... how could a high protein diet be beneficial to them?

@alphaxion I wondered that too. Why the brain? Hmmmmm
- Shevonne
The brain is chock full of cholesterol, so maybe they really are going for fatty things.

- Shevonne
Is it cause the rest of the animal kingdom isn't as dumb as humans and so require a far greater investment of energy in order to acquire sustenance?
- alphaxion
Dean: it's because cholesterol makes up the myelinated sheath around neural cells. Anywhere there are neurons, there's a crapload of cholesterol.
- FFing Enigma
@alphaxion I guess it depends on which zombies. If they are the old school zombies, who are super slow, then you might be right. However, the new zombies can run like vigilantes, and they still have no interest in animals. I think the only time I saw that they were eating animals was in the book "World War Z"

T-Mobile USA’s latest Android smartphone, the myTouch 3G, goes on sale today, and to celebrate (and, dare we say, distract attention from the HTC Hero) the carrier is planning an aerial show above San Francisco. 100 skydivers will plummit, sky-writing as they go, to announce the fact that the myTouch 3G costs $199.99 with a new two-year agreement. Unlike the HTC Magic version of the smartphone, the myTouch 3G will be available in three colors: black, white and merlot (red). Each will come preloaded with Android OS 1.5 Cupcake, and have 3G, WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, a 3.2-inch touchscreen and 3.2-megapixel camera. If the thought of falling salespeople isn’t enough to lure you out of the house – or if you’re not in San Francisco – then you can also pick up the new smartphone online.

- Ewan MacLeod
Ewan is right... we need a robust MVNO system built upon structural unbundling concepts like those in European markets. In that world, you might still have Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint but the MVNO's ride on any/all of them and shunt/suffer the traffic management in each case as they draw relationships or Transatel like companies behind the scenes. Sprint will swallow Virgin (MVNO). Tracphone (MVNO Walmart) on Verizon might follow that path as well. Point being, let MVNO's incubate and if they sell, fine.
- Jay Cuthrell
I really hope something good comes out of this. Odds are the phone will bridge over into Verizon, we all know thats coming at some point, but I hope that it doesn't fully jump. Going from one exclusive system to another really doesn't allow for anything to truly change.

"The court documents show that the 43-year-old actor and his wife, Kennya, owe more than $2 million, Reuters reported. The Baldwins owe a reported $1.2 million on two mortgages for their home in Rockland County, N.Y., valued at $1.1 million. Court filings also show the actor owes $70,000 in credit card debt and more than $1 million in taxes. An auction for the home originally scheduled for July 24 had been rescheduled for today, the Journal News of White Plains, N.Y., reported earlier this month. The born-again Christian and brother of actor Alec Baldwin paid $515,000 for the home and 1.4-acre lot in 1997, according to the AP. The star has recently been appearing on reality shows such as "The Celebrity Apprentice," and "I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!" where he baptized Spencer Pratt. After unsuccessfully trying to sell the house in 2006, Baldwin and his wife Kennya have defaulted on over $824,000 in payments to their mortgage, according to the AP."
