• Billionaire's next feat: Plumb the ocean depths

  Tue Apr 5, 2011
  • This story starts out as a fairly standard science feature and suddenly ends with economic component tacked on with quotes from a former secretary of labor? Huh? Is it just a way to make a puff piece seem newsy? Bad editing by MSNBC on a longer AP story? Just seems thrown together to me I guess...

• Japan to dig site linked to WWII human experiments

  Mon Feb 21, 2011
  • I'm sure there are many, many more tales of terrible atrocities that will never come to light as time goes by. It was a big, dirty war for all involved. The Japanese and Germans were particularly brutal and sadistic, especially when things weren't going their way.

• Thousands call for execution of Iran's Mousavi

  •  "Sociology prof Sudhir Venkatesh spent a year gaining the trust of and tracking 290 prostitutes in New York..." ...Just another day at the office.

  • Perhaps those same Japanese scientists will be able to clone a whale after they harvest the last one on earth for "scientific research."

• Eating disorders on rise for Orthodox Jewish girls

  Fri Dec 10, 2010
  • Having married into a Jewish family, I will say that I would probably develop an eating disorder too if I had to eat that kosher dreck every day. Let's do chinese tonight!

• Railgun shot heard round the world

  Fri Dec 10, 2010
  • Oh great, a new big gun for a BOAT... A weapons platform about as outdated as a smith-corona typewriter. What is this, WW1?

• Elkhart is No. 1, and now it's in a good way

  • Allison- A little off topic, but I wanted to say how nicely shot and edited that video was. Who did it? Too bad nobody got credit for it...but keep up the good work!

• Few facts can be reportedly found in this piece about North Korea!

  Wed Sep 29, 2010
  • My first reaction to the picture was how skinny all the soldiers look and how baggy their uniforms are. If they were to come streaming over the DMZ, a strong wind from the south would probably blow them right back...
