Trent Reznor Says "Steal My Music"

Like people aren’t doing it anyway?


Trent Reznor Says “Steal My Music”
THX-1138 writes “A few months ago, Trent Reznor (frontman of the band Nine Inch Nails), was in Australia doing an interview when he commented on the outrageous prices of CDs there. Apparently now his label, Universal Media Group is angry at him for having said that. During a concert last night, he told fans, ‘…Has anyone seen the price come down? Okay, well, you know what that means — STEAL IT. Steal away. Steal and steal and steal some more and give it to all your friends and keep on stealin’. Because one way or another these mother****ers will get it through their head that they’re ripping people off and that’s not right.'”

New York Times Ends Its Paid Subscription Service

awesome… free news!


New York Times Ends Its Paid Subscription Service
Mike writes “The New York Times has announced that it will end its paid Internet service in favor of making most of its Web site available for free. The hope is that this move will attract more readers and higher advertising revenue. ‘The longer-term problem for publishers like the Times is that they must find ways to present content online rather than just transferring stories and pictures from the newspaper. Most U.S. news Web sites offer their contents for free, supporting themselves by selling advertising. One exception is The Wall Street Journal which runs a subscription-based Web site. TimesSelect generated about $10 million in revenue a year. Schiller declined to project how much higher the online growth rate would be without charging visitors.'”

Countdown Monday: Greenspan's Bush Pan

Last night’s Countdown… I haven’t read any of the stories yet.. haven’t had the time to… I hope to read about Greenspan and Dubai… The other stories don’t interest me…


Countdown Monday: Greenspan’s Bush Pan

Thanks to all wishing Keith well in his recovery. Keith is out of the hospital, and home recovering after his emergency appendectomy on Friday. Alison is in for him tonight…

Fed Up: After spending nearly two decades as chairman of the Federal Reserve… Alan Greenspan is kind of like EF Hutton in those old television commercials: When he talks, people listen. So when — in our fifth story on the Countdown — Mr. Greenspan seemed to state in excerpts of his new memoir, that the invasion of Iraq was largely about oil… people were definitely listening, and the fiscal guru created a firestorm, to say the least.
You Say Dubai, I say Hello: President Bush announces his new pick for Attorney General. He goes with practicality over partisanship. Did the White House blink or open its eyes to the reality of the senate confirmation process. And will the former attorney general scandal taint the new confirmation?

ODDBALL: Drag racing crash…traffic cam crash, and a moose gets milked.  It’s appointment tv.
The OJ Debacle: OJ‘s not so excellent adventure. Day number one behind bars. hey–you knew someone would start a countdown clock. After all, we could be in for another long run with orenthal james simpson. Our third story tonight.. allegations of stolen goods… men with guns barging into a cheezy vegas hotel room… and a secret audio recording of the whole mess that just materialized. It is a chain of events you couldn’t make up …and you don’t have to because they happened in the nevada desert.
Emmy Round-up:  It was a “green” kind of awards show…the red carpet was made out of recycled material…coincidentally, some of the winners seemed a bit recycled, too. However, the biggest loser of the night appears to be the Fox network, with Sunday’s broadcast drawing nearly twenty percent fewer viewers than last year.  Note to Ryan Seacrest, don’t wear costumes next time. At least not professionally. Britney? A no-show-good thing because she probably wouldn’t have made it to air…The Fox censors were working overtime. They DID try to silence Norma Rae and that guy everybody loves. Our number two story tonight…the Emmys. Our correspondent is Natalie Morales.

As the Spears Turns:  Britney Spears custody battle has turned really ugly in our number one story on the Countdown.  And she has reportedly been banned from a chi-chi restaurant because she spread food on her face. But the good news for Britney — compared to that, her performance at the “Video Music Awards” is looking better and better… Well, no, not really.

Russian comment….

I had a comment left on an entry, and it was in Russian… I have no idea as to what it says… I’ve asked someone to translate it for me, because Google’s translation doesn’t make much sense…
The comment was:
Я хочу выпить за то, что Адам не пожалел своего ребра.
and Google translated it as:

I want to drink because Adam did not regretted his ribs.

Teen Sisters Killed In Crash

Story from WKYT

Two sisters, both high school students, are dead after a crash in Harrison County Monday night.

The two have been identified as Jennifer and Sarah Riggs.
The Harrison County Sheriff’s Department says the two students killed were a junior and a senior at Harrison County High School.

The accident happened three miles east of Cynthiana on 62.
That’s where police tell 27 NEWSFIRST a Camry heading west rounded a curve and lost control and hit a dodge pickup truck. Two other teens were also hurt. They are also students at the high school.
One adult was hurt as well in the crash.

More than 100 students were at the high school Monday night where counselors were on hand to aid grieving students.
School officials say both girls were very popular and active in school.

Homecoming was scheduled for the week, but all activities have been canceled to let students grieve.

Big Brother Really Is Watching Us All

scary…


Big Brother Really Is Watching Us All
siddesu writes “The BBC has a nice high-level overview of some technologies for surveillance developed in the US and the UK. ‘The US and UK governments are developing increasingly sophisticated gadgets to keep individuals under their surveillance. When it comes to technology, the US is determined to stay ahead of the game … But it [a through-the wall sensing device in development] will also show whether someone inside a house is looking to harm you, because if they are, their heart rate will be raised. And 10 years from now, the technology will be much smarter. We’ll scan a person with one of these things and tell what they’re actually thinking.'”

OLPC Cost Rises To $188 Per Laptop

I’m saddened by this news…. the poor thing will be nearly twice as expensive as anticipated… still, the price may go down in the future, as it gets more support…


OLPC Cost Rises To $188 Per Laptop
Arathon writes “The amazing ‘$100 laptop’ designed by the ‘One Laptop Per Child’ program isn’t going to make it out the door for that price. CNN reports that the laptops are now expected to cost $188 apiece when they come out later this fall. This is expected to make the program’s appeal potentially much smaller, since the developers were relying on the mind-bogglingly low-price to hook governments into the concept of buying laptops for their people. OLPC’s spokesman guarantees that the price won’t rise further, to ‘above $190’. The price differential is being blamed on raw materials costs and currency fluctuation. Is this the end of the OLPC’s newsworthiness, or should we continue to hope that it will make the difference that so many have said it will?”
