Nice to see that we're not so far behind from our yellow journalism days...

Despite the gravity of the situation, this statement borders on hilarity...
"SEOUL, South Korea (CNN) -- North Korea said Tuesday it would begin dismantling its nuclear program only if the United States provides a light-water reactor for civilian power."

There Ought to Be a Law...
Former TYCO CEO Dennis Kozlowski got sentenced to 25 years in prison for stealing approximately 600 million dollars from the company and won't be eligible for parole until 2014, which means that he will do at least 9 years in prison.
So, explain to me why the low term to rape is three (3) years. Is a woman's right to live without fear worth less than 600 million dollars? Is a woman's dignity as a human being worth less than 600 million dollars? Maybe it's the aftermath of living in fear and being scarred for life that's worth less than 600 million dollars, or perhaps the psychologically and physically damaged on the deepest level is worth less than 600 million dollars? I think not.
While Kozlowski gets prison time for stealing people's money, let's give rapists something to think about for stripping a woman's humanity. I say let the FDA allow this gizmo into the American market, or throw in a bit of castration into the law.
Three years plus castration? I can live with that.

It Is Official... I am NOT and I repeat NOT a morning person. My internship this semester starts at 8:00am, and I feel that this is bordering on cruel and unusual punishment. I've also realized that with hours like these, I will never and I repeat NEVER be able to quit drinking coffee... Well, I guess there's a silver lining for everything.
******UPDATE*******
My favorite drink right now is the Hammerhead (aka red eye, aka turbo). It is a large cup with two shots of espresso with the rest of the cup filled up with the coffee of my choice. It'll wake you riiiight up.
