My guess is McCain. If that's right, then succeeding in Iraq, as quickly as possible, may not only be the surest route to the White House for the Democrats. It may also be the quickest. ...

KELLER'S WWE RAW REPORT FEBRUARY 4, 2008 TAPE DELAY FROM AUSTIN, TEX. WHAT HAPPENED: 1ST HOUR -A full pyro show opened the show. Then Randy Orton was shown standing in mid-ring as Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler introduced the show. Orton said John Cena accepted his invite to wrestle him at No Way Out for the WWE Title. He said Cena's word means nothing to him, so he wants it in writing so there's no way he can back out of the match in two weeks. He said Cena therefore cannot claim he is not fully recovered. He was there to be "no way out" for Cena. Get it? He said he had his lawyers draw up the contract, which he has already signed. He called Cena to the ring. Cena came out and signed the document quickly. Orton told him that if he suffers a pec injury later in an arm wrestling contest against Mark Henry, he'll still have to fulfill his match at No Way Out.
Cutting emissions from vehicles will require many solutions
Denver Metro area residents and possibly all residents of Colorado will be facing some tough times in the near future as our air quality fell below federally acceptable levels too many times last summer and lawmakers are considering the adoption of California emissions restrictions on vehicles. Despite better quality fuels, the emissions inspection program, and ever improving emission control devices on vehicles, Denver's air quality has slipped. These restrictions, if imposed, will raise the cost of vehicles, reduce the number of vehicles available for purchase, and do nothing to encourage other options that could help reduce the ozone levels in the summer. What is the solution? Well that has to come from many sources and there are options that don't increase vehicle costs or reduce vehicle ownership choices.
Study Finds Smoking Causes Acne
Before you light up your next cigarette, a new study shows nicotine may have yet another hidden danger, especially for women. Local 12 Medical Reporter Liz Bonis explains in today's Health Alert.Not that you need another reason to quit, but this study found that smoking has been linked to serious problems with your skin. We stopped out in Western Hills today at Queen City Physicians to tell you more about this research.It is published in the British Journal of Dermatology. Scientists found women who smoke are four times more likely to develop non-inflammatory acne as non-smokers. This can cause blocked pores, large whiteheads and even small cysts. Women may be more at risk for this than guys who smoke, researchers say, because of fluctuating hormones. The nicotine makes this worse because it constricts blood vessels, and reduces the supply of oxygen to the skin which is needed for new cells.If you are having skin problems, make sure you see your own dermatologist.

Dallas, I love you, but I've found Austin
He pulls out his cell phone to take a picture. "My brother won't believe this," he says, chuckling. Cookie Monster doesn't mind. "You can tell by the number of teeth they have how long they've been out here," Peters says as we get out of the car. Cookie Monster smiles to reveal a full set. Her skin is dirty, with brown bruises here and there and scabs on her legs. She wears a tight but fading skirt and a pair of dirty white Keds. Big, sagging breasts. Peterson points at them with the butt of his flashlight. "That's what gets you in trouble," he says. She smiles as if he's embarrassed her. "Don't worry," he says. "We're not buying." He hands her a cigarette. "How you doin,' Country?" he asks the pimp. Country's good. Country's high. Country's got a bit of drool coming out of his mouth.
