Holocaust Diary

Full article here
This article basically just discusses how the diary of a survivor Holocaust has been given to the Holocaust museum by the author of it. It may not seem like anything special since there are about 150 other diaries that have already been donated to the museum, but this is the first that has been written by an American captive. He wrote in this diary while he was in a labor camp, even though it was something he knew could have led to his death. Something I find pretty funny is in the article he talks about how the two times he almost got caught with the diary was when it fell out of his pants in front of the same guard, but he claims this guard was the only one with any compassion, luckily for him. When the guard asked him about it, he replied, "I'm writing about the nice vacation I'm taking here in your compounds." I think its pretty interesting to hear someone talk about the since of humor he had when he was a captive in a Nazi labor camp, knowing he could die any day, yet he was still making jokes.

O'Reilly on The View? Bad idea

Bill O'Reilly, one of the most well-known men on Fox News, was brought onto the show The View, and things ended up turning out....just about exactly how many would have predicted. After giving his point of view on the Islamic center being built by Ground Zero, saying that it was unacceptable because "Muslims killed us on 9/11",  Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar proceeded to walk off the set because they did not want to listen to him anymore. Later, Sherri Shepherd called him a pinhead because he did not refer to the Muslims who were involved with the 9/11 attack as extremists. I think that the ladies on The View were overreacting. Bill O'Reilly stated a fact, that Muslims killed Americans on 9/11. He did not say all Muslims were terrorists or anything of that kind, he simply stated a fact. Later, he apologized to those who thought he was demeaning all Muslims, but then also stated he's "not in the business of sugarcoating harsh reality", and I agree with him completely. Although not all Muslims are radicals, it does not change the fact that some are and those are the ones who committed the attacks, and that is what O'Reilly is referring to.

Camo Robber

If you want to check out the entire CNN.com news article on this click here. I saw the link for this was called "Burglar dressed as grass" and had to see what the whole story was behind it. A man suspected or trying to rob a rock and mineral museum was hiding in a field about a half mile away and the police were searching the field using search dogs. One dog noticed a small movement on the ground below him and snapped at it, resulting in the suspect turning out with a nice dog bite in his back. The man was dressed in a ghillie suit, something made to resemble the earth using much more texture and detail than any normal camouflage, often used by snipers or other military personnel. I just can't seem to figure out why this guy decided to put on the entire suit..before he walked into a public museum? Regardless of what his intentions were, the police dog stopped anything from ever happening by walking right on his plans
