KOB.com – ‘How-to’ sex article raises eyebrows – The column that appeared in the campus paper last week is essentially a graphic, how-to-guide for having anal sex. It's more than 700 words dedicated to a subject you would expect to find in an adult book store.
Rank-and-file county staff reveal fear of Sheriff Joe Arpaio – Fears first spiked in December 2008, when county administrators spent $10,000 to sweep county offices for illegal wiretaps they worried had been installed by Arpaio.

The 2010 Sonic Blast – Intel blew out the fourth quarter and is firmly on the way to historic high earnings in 2010. Wall Street initially bid the shares to a new 16-month high but reversed into a long weekend presaged by Friday's options expiration. A record 65% gross margin and 29% higher revenues than the year previous were ignored as investors decided this is as good as it gets; that its all down hill from here. Looking at the nation's dismal political news, steamrolling a health care bill few want and ignoring China's blatant attacks on American high technology, it's easy to put on the dark glasses. However alluring it is to take the past year's gains to the bank and seek safer haven, this ignores an expansive global economy and multiple technology product cycles from which Intel and other chipmakers will handsomely benefit these next several years.

Apple has some precedent here. Enough said.
