Comcast.net and Comcast Email Hacked
Comcast.net and Comcast webmail accounts have been compromised after the site was hacked earlier this evening.
The site is currently displaying a message saying “This Site is Under Construction,” however, it is being widely reported that the page earlier showed messages from the hackers.

Website of the Day: Comcastic
In another installment of "you should be working, not playing on this website" website of the day, Comcast has launched Comcastic, a fun little number of its own. Comcastic (not to be confused with Comcast), encourages you to play with puppets (including my fave, the robot), come up with some cool moves, even send a personalized puppet message to your pals — complete with a voice recording! You can also participate in five rounds of mouse-clicking games that could win you an entire year of free internet.

The Slowsky's rock!!! This one is my fave....Adding Some Color to Sunday Morning Talk Show Circuit
WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama sprinted through appearances on five consecutive news shows last Sunday, but other African-American lawmakers and opinion-shapers have a hard time getting face time on those programs. Although an African-American is serving as the third-ranking Democrat in the House of Representatives, four African-Americans are chairing important House committees and 17 other Congressional Black Caucus members are holding subcommittee chairs, they haven't made many appearances on the Sunday talk-show circuit.

Some sources claimed that her father said something like: "She will present at the Oscars when it’s a great movie, not just one that makes a lot of money.”
But Kristen had a very good reason for not being at the Oscar´s — she wasn't asked.
