U.S. President Barack Obama, today struggles to keep his flatlining health care bill intact, pleading for additional time to debate its points in Congress. Obama's rivals, the Republican Party, are adamant the bill be destroyed and have vowed to vote in that direction.
Last year, the President left for Christmas vacation, believing the deal was sealed, only for it to unravel one month later, with the victory of Republican, Scott Brown, chipping away the much needed vote.
Andrew Young, a former aide of one time Presidential candidate, John Edwards, has turned over a sex tape of his boss, after being cited in contempt of court, for illegally withholding it and attempting to sell it.
The video is owned by Edwards' mistress, Rielle Hunter, who gave birth to his illegitimate daughter that he initially denied, due to the damage it would cause his political career.

As mentioned on the website on February 2. 2010 in the article, The FBI Continues To Break The Law, travelers who fly frequently and are exposed to additional radiation, are at higher risk of developing cancer ("There is a very dangerous problem that could erupt if they use the industrial version of the Mind Reading Software, which includes a scanner that acts as a MRI scan of the brain - cancer rates will go up among people who travel often").
On February 5. 2010 the Inter-Agency Committee on Radiation Safety confirmed the Judiciary Report's claims via their report, in concluding, "Body scanning raises raises radiation exposure" and that "Air passengers should be made aware of the health risks of airport body screenings and governments must explain any decision to expose the public to higher levels of cancer-causing radiation."
Airport Body Scanning Raises Radiation Exposure, Committee Says
Feb. 5 (Bloomberg) -- Air passengers should be made aware of the health risks of airport body screenings and governments must explain any decision to expose the public to higher levels of cancer-causing radiation, an inter-agency report said.
Pregnant women and children should not be subject to scanning, even though the radiation dose from body scanners is "extremely small," said the Inter-Agency Committee on Radiation Safety report, which is restricted to the agencies concerned and not meant for public circulation. The group includes the European Commission, International Atomic Energy Agency, Nuclear Energy Agency and the World Health Organization.
A more accurate assessment about the health risks of the screening won't be possible until governments decide whether all passengers will be systematically scanned or randomly selected, the report said. Governments must justify the additional risk posed to passengers, and should consider "other techniques to achieve the same end without the use of ionizing radiation."
President Barack Obama has pledged $734 million to deploy airport scanners that use x-rays and other technology to detect explosives, guns and other contraband. The U.S. and European countries including the U.K. have been deploying more scanners at airports after the attempted bombing on Christmas Day of a Detroit-bound Northwest airline flight...
As preparations for the 2010 American football championships, the Super Bowl, are under way in Miami, Florida, so are the loose women. A bevy of women have descended on the city, with sex, drugs and rock n' roll on their minds.
Their intent? To catch a footballer, while they catch the ball in vying for the title. Male celebrity often attracts these types of dangerous magnets, carrying STDs in their wake.
Miami again
Side Bar: law enforcement are also out in full force, stating they are protecting the players and public from possible terrorist attacks. Tell the truth, you guys just want to see the game (kidding).
Video: Fabio Capello replaces Terry with Ferdinand
Scandal plagued English football star, John Terry, has been replaced as captain of the national team, by Rio Ferdinand, who becomes the first black man to attain the post (Dude, they Obama-ed you, congrats!).
The press has been unrelenting, as footballers are often the most famous people in England and other parts of the world, hence public interest in their rise or demise blankets the news.
Toni Terry
Vanessa Perroncell, a cocktail waitress, is in the center of the storm, for sleeping with a number of football players. So far, she has made roughly $500,000 for selling her story, while John Terry has lost that much and more in endorsement deals.
Vanessa Perroncell
The real victims in this tragedy are Terry's wife and children, who flew out to Dubai to escape the sadness of the scandal that has dominated the British press and run in papers all over the world.
John Terry
After all is said and done, Terry needs to apologize to his wife and try to make his family work, as that is more important than football. This was a tough lesson to learn, but he cannot let it destroy him. He should seek God's forgiveness, as does Ms. Perroncell.
John Terry was dropped as England's captain by manager Fabio Capello, a week after allegations became public that the defender had an affair with the former girlfriend of teammate Wayne Bridge. Rio Ferdinand will take over as England's captain.
Terry allegedly had affair with teammate's ex-girlfriend: John Terry was dropped as England's captain by manager Fabio Capello, a week after allegations became public that the defender had an affair with the former girlfriend of teammate Wayne Bridge.
Rio Ferdinand will take over as captain as England prepares for its World Cup opener against the United States on June 12. Ferdinand, who had been vice captain, has been injured for much of this season.
Capello told Terry, 29, of the decision in a brief meeting, a week after the married Chelsea captain lost a High Court battle to ban publication of details of an alleged relationship with Vanessa Perroncel, a French model and the mother of Bridge's child.

Actress, Jennifer Aniston, has renovated an old, one story Beverly Hills house she purchased in California, which is featured in this month's Architectural Digest magazine. The property features views of downtown Los Angeles.
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt
The article includes a few photos from the abode and snaps of Aniston in the property. In reading the article, one can't help but think, given ex-husband Brad Pitt's penchant for dumping Hollywood actresses, for younger ones, how long it will be, before Angelina Jolie, his current partner, is planning her own home without him.
The Los Angeles County Coroner has confirmed what the Judiciary Report previously speculated, actress and Kabbalah member, Brittany Murphy, died of an accidental drug overdose.
Medical examiners have not yet released the names of the drugs in her system, but their analysis is conclusive with a factor that has been prominent in a number of untimely Hollywood deaths such as Michael Jackson, Elvis Presley, Heath Ledger, Anna Nicole Smith and many others. Hollywood stars play around with legal and illegal drugs and it is very dangerous.
Murphy died from a drug overdose, pneumonia, anemia and an iron deficiency. She was already on medication for other preexisting issues, then took a host of additional meds for the "flu" accidentally poisoning her system.
It is being stated, had she gotten to the hospital sooner, she would be alive today. I don't doubt that. However, she most likely brushed off her condition as just another cold.
