This isn't exactly relevant to you people outside of NYC but I live in BK, so I am livid. The mayor of NYC is a billionaire. Mr. Bloomburg was something like 26th richest when he first came to office. His annual mayor salary is $1 supposedly. Magically, he has become the 8th richest person. What a world we live in... The MTA's doomsday budget will wipe out the W line, zap the Z line and ax more than 1,500 NYC Transit jobs, the Daily News has learned.

Riders can expect longer waits, more-crowded rides and having to make additional transfers to get to their destinations if the draconian moves are put into effect. "Oh, this is not good," said Gladeys Loaiza, a housekeeper from Queens who rides the W train. "When I get on in the morning, I can't sit now. What's it going to be like w...

Britney Spears' fans have been feeling vindicated recently because they can look people in the eye now when they tell them that they're Britney Spears fans, but that's all gonna change when a new documentary, Britney: For The Record, airs on December 1st. I don't want to give it away, but Britney says her new "healthy" life is a manufactured lie and she can't wait to break free. Oops, sorry! The Sun reports: "In a new fly-on-the-wall documentary she tearfully admits: “There’s no excitement, there’s no passion ...."I have really good days, and then I have bad days. Even when you go to jail you know there’s the time when you’re gonna get out. But in this situation, it's never ending. It's just like Groundhog Day every day. I think it's too in control .

Pirates have hijacked a Saudi-owned oil tanker with 25 crew aboard off the coast of Kenya, the U.S. Navy and the British Foreign Office confirmed on Monday. The Sirius Star -- a crude "super tanker" flagged in Liberia and owned by the Saudi Arabian-based Saudi Aramco company -- was attacked on Saturday more than 450 nautical miles southeast of Mombasa, Kenya.

Jane Campbell said the super tanker weighs more than 300,000 metric tons and "is more than three times the size of a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier."

A multinational naval force including vessels from the U.S., the UK and Russia has been patrolling the Indian Ocean waters seas near the Gulf of Aden, which connects the Red Sea a...

I used that same masonic compass at top of blog :-) I stumbled upon these just browsing ebay. The band is called " The Mars Volta ". I think that means Mars in reverse/retrograde? These posters are pretty awesome, in a graphic design sense.
