Seneca Wallace's Home Movies From Kuwait

Former Iowa State Cyclone Seneca Wallace is one of the good guys.

Earlier this year, the current Cleveland Browns QB travelled to Kuwait to meet with the troops stationed there.

Thought I would post this today on the 4th of July.

Students Set Off Fireworks at School

Idiots.

Description says the students at this unnamed high school were expelled

Like the Song "Africa" By Toto?

These guys are from Utah and they sang it in a Pizzeria and in my opinion, hit a home run.

Awesome cover!

As they say on American Idol, these guys "made it their own."  I almost liked it better than the original.

I don't care how the pizza is at this place, I would eat anything if these guys were playing.

Magician Hurt in Stunt at Racetrack

A magician from Atlanta escaped, if you can call it that with broken bones -- an ankle, a wrist, a finger and his clavicle, after a stunt he was attempting at Atlanta Motor Speedway went wrong.

Between races, he was supposed to escape from being chained at his wrists to a car, while his head was covered with a bag, before the car sped away and took him with it, the report said. It didn't work out that way and he was dragged down the track.

"I was crying. It was just excruciating pain," Michael Mooney, AKA, Moodini told Channel 2 from his hospital bed.

Of course, the whole ordeal has ended up on the Internet.

Mooney said the problem was how the chain was spread out connecting him to the car.

Terry Stork, his manager, told Channel 2 that instead of the normal 8 to 10 seconds Mooney has after the car takes off, he had only 3.

"I thank the good Lord I'm not dead right now," Mooney said.

Google Stock Soars

Shares of Google, which have fallen 13% this year, rose 9% in after-hours trading on Thursday.

Jonathan Rosenberg, who oversees Google's entire product portfolio, told analysts on a conference call that the company's display advertising unit is now a $2.5 billion business, on an annualized basis. Android's revenue is at $1 billion a year, extropolating from the most recent quarter's results.

Rosenberg also said that YouTube is making money on its more than 2 billion video views per week.

Emerging businesses helped Google far exceed Wall Street's financial estimates for the quarter.

The world's online search leader said its third-quarter net income rose to $2.2 billion, or $6.72 per share, up 32% from a year earlier.

Results included one-time charges totaling 92 cents per share. Without the charge, Google said it earned $7.64 per share. Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters, who typically exclude one-time items from their estimates, forecasted earnings of $6.69 per share.

Sales for the Mountain View, Calif., company rose 23% to $7.3 billion. Excluding advertising sales that Google shares with partners, a figure also known as "traffic acquisition costs," the company reported revenue of $5.5 billion, which topped analysts' forecasts of $5.3 billion.

Though its new businesses are growing, search remains the most crucial component of Google's financial results. An increase in both the number of clicks on advertisements on Google's sites and the amount advertisers paid for those clicks helped drive the past quarter's gains.
