OBAMA PICKS HIS TEAM INCLUDING AS EXPECTED - HILLARY CLINTON AS SECRETARY OF STATE!

As everyone said would happen -- Hillary Clinton has been named & accepted the post of Secratary of State under President-Elect Barack Obama!
Obama said: "Hillary's appointment is a sign to friend and foe of the seriousness of my commitment to renew American diplomacy and restore our alliances," Obama said at a news conference in Chicago, Illinois. "I have no doubt that Hillary Clinton is the right person to lead our State Department and to work with me in tackling this ambitious foreign policy agenda."
"I am confident that this team is what we need to make a new beginning for American national security," Obama said.
Those close to Clinton said earlier that the New York senator is "excited" about the job and is taking on the position out of a sense of duty. As S. of State, Clinton will have some control of her staffing, like picking the assistant secretaries, according to sources familiar with the negotiations.Clinton also has been told by the Obama team that they will help her fundraise in the next 60 days to help clear her campaign debt, which is about $6.5 million! Very Well done!
No Losers Here - the White House and Obama's Staff is ready to Rock the World!
This is really exciting to see how everything has taken shape == BARACK OBAMA!

Barney Frank tells CNBC that there are plenty of RICH PEOPLE to tax!

I don't understand why people are so upset over this...
Why let people who work hard and get paid way less..not have a break?!?

People who have A LOT of money aren't being punished for having money, but they have WAY more invested normally than the average American..shouldn't they pay more-percentage wise?!? Makes SENSE to me!

Nasa to visit SUN!! The sun is VERY HOT but its outer atmosphere is even HOTTER!!

For more than 400 years, astronomers have studied the sun from afar. Now NASA has decided to go there.

“We are going to visit a living, breathing star for the first time,” says program scientist Lika Guhathakurta of NASA Headquarters. “This is an unexplored region of the solar system and the possibilities for discovery are off the charts.”

The name of the mission is Solar Probe+ (pronounced “Solar Probe plus”). It’s a heat-resistant spacecraft designed to plunge deep into the sun’s atmosphere where it can sample solar wind and magnetism first hand. Launch could happen as early as 2015. By the time the mission ends 7 years later, planners believe Solar Probe+ will solve two great mysteries of astrophysics and make many new discoveries along the way.

The two mysteries prompting this mission are the high temperature of the sun’s corona and the puzzling acceleration of the solar wind:

If you stuck a thermometer in the surface of the sun, it would read about 6000o C. Intuition says the temperature should drop as you back away; instead, it rises. The sun’s outer atmosphere, the corona, registers more than a million degrees Celsius, hundreds of times hotter than the star below. This high temperature remains a mystery more than 60 years after it was first measured. The solar wind: The sun spews a hot, million mph wind of charged particles throughout the solar system. Planets, comets, asteroids—they all feel it. Curiously, there is no organized wind close to the sun’s surface, yet out among the planets there blows a veritable gale. Somewhere in between, some unknown agent gives the solar wind its great velocity. The question is, what? “To solve these mysteries, Solar Probe+ will actually enter the corona,” says Guhathakurta. “That’s where the action is.”

AIR MCFLY Nike Sneakers finally revealed!!!

1989 was a big year. The Berlin Wall fell. The Exxon Valdez spilled its guts. And there were protests in China's Tiananmen Square. But those were just side attractions to the year's most memorable moment—the debut of Nike's "Air McFly" sneakers in "Back to the Future 2."

The film, which largely took place in the year 2015, introduced viewers to many a futuristic wonder, but none were so iconic as the light blue high-tops worn by Michael J. Fox. Ever since the film premiered, folks have been begging Nike to produce the shoes for the masses. Now, Nike has finally obliged... sort of.

The shoes were recently reveled at an event headlined by Kobe Bryant. Ever the showman, the hoopster even arrived in a DeLorean. Fans lined up way in advance, but according to Wired, many went home disappointed. Nike only made 350 pairs of the specially designed kicks, not nearly enough to satisfy the fans.

The shoes were released in a very limited quality, but for hardcore fans who were shut out, there's always the capitalist slaughterhouse that is eBay. Pairs are currently going for up to $1,000 (power laces not included). As Doc Brown would say, "Great Scott!"

JonBenet Ramsey Family CLEARED in MURDER of beauty queen!

Colorado prosecutors say new DNA tests have cleared JonBenet Ramsey's family in the 1996 killing of the 6-year-old beauty queen. (July 9)It's been roughly 11-and-a-half years since the murder of JonBenet Ramsey made national headlines. While her murderer has yet to be caught -- new DNA evidence has cleared two people of suspicion in the case -- her parents. The evidence does not match anyone in the Ramsey family, or anyone in law-enforcement DNA databases. The new DNA was found with tests on the leggings that went over the child's panties -- The discovery has prompted the Boulder District Attorney's office to release a letter officially clearing the Ramsey family of any involvement in the 1996 death of the 6-year-old. In it, District Attorney Mary Lacy writes - "to the extent that we may have contributed in any way to the public perception that you might have been involved in this crime, I am deeply sorry." The child beauty queen's body was found in the family's basement in Boulder the day after Christmas. At the time, a two-page ransom note was also found by JonBenet's mother ... Patsy Ramsey died in June of 2006 after a battle with cancer
