A confidential draft of a federal inspector general’s report claimed that the behavior they found at the Medicare Administration was rife with irregularities.

She topped a poll from Capcom that asked which character gamers wanted to see most in SF IV , so now that she is said to be "definitely in the game," the Internet may rejoice. Cammy is a firm favorite (emphasis on firm) with Street Fighter fans, and the British agent in a glorified swimsuit is one of the series' most memorable characters. There are also plenty more depraved and foul things I could say, but you can either use your imaginations or just type "Cammy" into Google Image Search with the safety function switched off. I know I have. While we're on the subject of new characters, there's also a rumor that Sheng Long will be revealed at the Tokyo Game Show. No further details from there, but it seems Capcom is still mulling over the cast list, stating that: "Figuring out the right number of characters is a lot like chess. You need to know the rules well, and things need to be balanced properly. We'll see what we end up with." Now that Cammy is in, and assuming we may see Sheng Long soon, who else from the SF back catalog would you like to see make an appearance? Or do you want some more brand new characters?

Adams over at Clown Hall, but this classless loose cannon of homobigotry is stationed in my state; he teaches criminology at the University of North Carolina - Wilmington. In a screed entitled " Fat Lesbians on Crack ," he shares his wisdom -- comparing lesbianism with alcoholism: Imagine for a moment that we were to forbid a counselor from expressing her objection to overeating, despite proven health risks, simply because the obese individual likes to eat and claims some genetic predisposition to obesity. Or imagine for a moment that we were to forbid a counselor from expressing her objection to over-drinking, despite proven health risks, simply because the drunken individual likes to drink and claims some genetic predisposition to alcoholism.

He is already famous for having a very special gift, the power of his wrists. But he never would have thought of winning the title of batting champion in the Olympic Games, with an extremely high average of .520. Nevertheless, he continues to be the same modest baseball player born in El Caney 24 years ago. “I never think about records, with the Santiago de Cuba team or with Cuba’s national team. I simply go out to do it well to help my team. Before I arrived here I told myself that if I could bat against the pitching of a National Series, I could do it here in Beijing too. You see, I was not wrong. I did not think about getting the ball out [of the park,] but to hit it, to collide with it.” You have done well all season long, in Cuba and outside of it. How can you explain such a high performance? “I think that two factors came together, the physical and the mental. I train every day with the same dedication and the same interest. In addition, I have the support of my family, my wife, and my parents, who have given me the strength to carry on, even when things have not gone well for me. I have had two good trainers, physical conditioner Felipe Diez-Siré and Orestes Kindelán, who have helped me find the form and corrected my errors.” Your batting system, is it always the same one? “Basically, yes, I always try to sweep home and not do a long swing. I also make adjustments, because it is not the same thing facing a pitcher who throws 90 miles or more – in that case I stand in the rear of the box –, than one who bases his pitching on breaking balls, very difficult, because the batter always tends to go out front, and to take his hips and shoulders out before it is time. That helped me a lot in this competition, where one has to face pitchers who are very different.” You are the third Cuban who has won a batting title, after Víctor Mesa and Pestano. Didn’t you feel pressure? “Well, in the first place I found out that I was the top batter after the first two hits against China, when Higinio [Vélez] went to the press box and started to ask about the statistics. I knew that I was the leader in triples. But I did not feel pressure. I am used to it. I believe that a game against the Industriales at the Guillermón [Baseball Stadium], has as much pressure as a Cuba-USA. Don’t you believe? ------ JG: Any errors in the translation are mine.

Mmmm... Biden would be fun. He says a lot of stupid stuff. He plagarizes things. He calls President Bush "Boss." He's a loose cannon, so if Obama taps him, it'll be comedy. Kaine is a bit more experienced than the Magic Negro, but not much. Obviously the Obama campaign, if they pick Kaine, would be telegraphing that they need to capture Virginia to win. Bayh is a laid back, uninspired bore, but his family apparently owns Indiana and he's a moderate reach-across-the-aisle guy and the obvious choice as far as I'm concerned.
