Barry Bonds pleads not guilty to perjury - Yahoo! News:

Barry Bonds pleads not guilty to perjury

SAN FRANCISCO - Barry Bonds let one of his six lawyers say the words: 'Not guilty.' No courtroom drama, no surprises. Flanked by an entourage of lawyers and family members, baseball's home run king smiled, waved and made eye contact with fans Friday as he made his first court appearance since being charged with lying under oath about using steroids.

Bonds' new lawyer entered a not guilty plea in U.S. District Court to the four counts of perjury and one count of obstruction of justice contained in the Nov. 15 indictment.

The 'O factor' - and it's not Obama
By NEDRA PICKLER, Associated Press Writer
1 hour, 14 minutes ago
DES MOINES, Iowa - Even before Oprah Winfrey adopts her familiar pose — microphone in hand — in the unfamiliar venue of the presidential campaign, Barack Obama is already reaping the benefits of her high-wattage celebrity backing.

Thousands of Iowans have flocked to his office, and have 1,385 signed up as volunteers to score tickets to see the talk show diva and magazine queen. The campaign declines to say how many tickets have been distributed for two events Saturday in Iowa but says no one will be turned away from the unique opportunity to attract new voters.

What's next for Guam Schools

How to watch Packers/Cowboys Game

Unless you're on base here on Guam, it will be impossible for you to watch the Packers/Cowboys game. However one of our craftier listeners has found a way to watch if you have a decent internet connection. Here's the note listener Steve sent me.


Trav,

here's the link.



This website is called MYP2P

there is a link to "the beginners guide" on the home page. This link
explains how to download "the patch" and the other sofware to view the
game.
this guide needs to be read carefully.

one important download required is the "TVU" software found under the
software tab on the home page, in the "the clients" section.

all cowboy/packer fanatics better start setting this up now, if they hope
to view the start of the game... it takes awhile to figure it out, unless
your a computer wiz.

Prison love Filipino style

If I ever go down, I hope it's in the Phillipines, where at least I'll be able to dance to more than Jailhouse rock!

Trav meets the King of Japanese Sumo! Akebono!


Check it out! Former Yokozuna Akebono (Chad Rowan) stopped by the Patti Arroyo show the afternoon before Geran Haga II. I couldn't help asking for a picture and a quick promo. He was great about it! He says he's down about 100pounds from his fighting weight, but as you can see from the photo, he could still probably make a quick meal of me!

After Patti saw my photo, she got one of her own. As you can see Akebono seems a lot friendlier with Patti. This makes me glad!
