Feds drop case against blackwater guard
US to drop shooting case against Blackwater guard
By MATT APUZZO – 1 day ago
WASHINGTON — Prosecutors say they'll drop manslaughter charges against one of the Blackwater Worldwide contractors charged in a deadly 2007 Baghdad shooting.
In court documents Friday, prosecutors said they have asked that the case against Nicholas Slatten of Sparta, Tenn., be dropped.
The request itself was sealed, so it's unclear why the case was being dropped. But it could be a bad sign for the government. After the shooting, some guards spoke to investigators under the promise of immunity. Prosecutors have been arguing behind closed doors that the immunity deal did not taint the case.
Five guards, all military veterans, face charges in the shooting that left 17 Iraqis dead. Prosecutors say the shooting was unprovoked, but Blackwater says its convoy was ambushed.

8 U.S. soldiers killed in Afghanistan
It's awful sad that we lost 8 soldiers in Afghanistan before holidays. I'm grieving--heart my goes out to their families and love ones. I pray for peace and I hope it will come soon. The sooner the better before we lose more of our brothers, sisters, mothers, and fathers in that lousy war!
Rest In Peace to those who died. =(

Bret Favre | Vikings
Favre went 24 for 31, without a turnover. He celebrated his first scoring toss with an awkward body bump with kicker Ryan Longwell(notes), also a former Packers teammate, and showed plenty of emotion on this most emotional night. He stayed poised in the pocket all night, too, and avoided the risky throws that have defined his career almost as much as the success. Brit Favre
Damn! I missed the game! Adrenalin rushing through my veins...

Paramedic failed patient
A despicable attitude of a liar, beast, and inhumane abusive person like Sefton should be not given a license to be close to the patient. He is going to kill every patients he treats and we don't tolerate this kind of behaviour. [...]

Warner music back in You tube?
Warner Music, which had removed its videos from YouTube after licensing talks with Google broke down last year, just announced that is has reached a new deal with YouTube and that Warner's music videos will once again appear on YouTube. The partnership, according to the official announcement, covers the complete Warner catalog and "includes user-generated content containing WMG acts." Warner will be able to monetize user-generated content thanks to Google's Content ID technology, which can detect copyrighted content in YouTube videos and then allow the copyright holders to sell ads against this inventory.
According to Google, the partnership is based on a revenue-sharing deal. Thanks to this deal, YouTube users will now have access to videos from all the major record labels and most of the major independent labels as well.[...]
