ATLANTA -- Kwame James had to wait nearly 10 years to be sworn in as a U.S. citizen, a long time compared with the time he spent helping subdue would-be shoe bomber Richard Reid on a trans-Atlantic flight. James, now 32, wore a gray pinstriped suit and blue tie at Thursday's ceremony in Atlanta, which ended years of immigration limbo that began after he helped thwart the terror attack aboard a Paris-to-Miami flight in December 2001.

When it comes to computer technology, thin is always in. It’s indisputable that the thinner, lighter, clearer, the better when dealing with the latest computer gadget. This keyboard is the epitome of the high standards expected of the technological version of the fashion industry. It’s based on image as well, that is, image recognition technology.

A member of a homegrown terrorist group pleaded guilty Friday to participating in a plot to set off truck bombs in front of Canada's main stock exchange and two government buildings.

February 20, 2010 Here's a Treat for your Viewing Pleasure: “It’s been 70 years, 50 years nonstop of giving to the poor – and they still poor. Hey, when ya’ll going to wake up out there. You’re throwing your money down a rat hole… Haven’t you noticed they’re not getting better, they’re going to jail, making more babies, killing one another in Chicago, killing one another in Detroit… and their leaders are getting fatter, Jackson Sharpton…”- James David Manning, PhD This fellow is rough around the edges but he makes some excellent points with a very perspicuous style of delivery....

James O’Keefe, the self-styled guerilla investigative journalist celebrated for his video on ACORN and arrested last month in New Orleans in an attempted expose of Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu, got a rock star welcome at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference Thursday. O’Keefe, 25, wasn’t scheduled to do any official events at CPAC, as the conference is known, but he attracted plenty of attention as he waded through the lobby of the Marriott Wardman Park Hotel in Washington, where the conference is taking place, posing for pictures with admiring fans who wished him well in his pending court case.

I was asked by a reader of my Sunday Messages, “How do I love someone I don't like, and if I can't love them does it mean I do not love God?” I decided to tackle this question because there are many Christians who find it difficult, if not down right impossible, to love those they don't like. We are told by John that, “He who does not love does not know God, for God is love.” 1John 4:8 John goes on to write that it is impossible to love a God you cannot see, if you do not love...

ESPN analyst Craig James, whose complaints about the way his son was treated led to the dismissal of Texas Tech coach Mike Leach, may be considering a career change. The former SMU football player said this week that he might consider running for U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison’s seat when she steps down this year. "I’m a Texan. I’m concerned for our country," James told WFAA-TV. "I disagree with the approach that we’re having, things that are taking place, and so whatever door opens up, I’ll look at it, if and when it opens up." James, 49, joins a growing...

I find it odd that a profile of Mike Leach remains on the Texas Tech University web site more than a week after Chancellor Kent Hance unceremoniously fired him.

Here is a copy of the lawsuit ACORN filed in Maryland against James O'Keefe, Hannah Giles and Breitbart. I had to block out their address because this document had their personal addresses. You can see exactly what they are claiming. The Document is at link.

In a recent interview with Maxim.com, Cavaliers superstar LeBron James(notes), who was in fact dunking on a regulation rim before the age of one, was asked who he would most like to be able to posterize. His answer was a little surprising:

BUSAN, South Korea (AFP) – Hollywood producer Jon Landau said Friday he had no doubt that his latest feature with "Titanic" director James Cameron would live up to its billing as the year's most-anticipated film. The 300-million-dollar "Avatar", packed with computer-generated imagery and 3-D effects, is the pair's first project together since scooping 11 Oscars with "Titanic" in 1998.

“From Selfish Ambition to Humble Service” (Mark 9:30-37; James 3:13 – 4:10)In this long green season of the church year, the so-called non-festival half of the year, the Epistle reading is not chosen to fit the theme of the Holy Gospel, as it is in the festival half of the year. Instead, it’s just a straight reading-through of a particular epistle, and any correlation between the Epistle and Gospel is merely a coincidence. Well, we have such a coincidence today. The Epistle reading from James and the Gospel reading from Mark do have a common theme. It’s the theme of...

Watch the "Choose George Washington" video at http://www.atlah.org

ACORN is now saying the video's that Aye and Mata have been writing about were doctored and are now threatening to sue: [VIDEO AT SITE] Only problem is, they fired the people involved in giving advice to James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles on how to run a sex business, hide the money from that business, and then get James into politics. Why in the world would you fire them if they were innocent and the tapes were doctored? Read the transcript and you find quotes like: (h/t Hot Air) ACORN 4: You want to make sure you distance yourself from...

It isn’t easy to put U.S. defenses back on track after they’ve endured a season of neglect. Gen. William Snow found that out firsthand. Snow’s job, when he arrived in Washington in the World War I era, was to direct the buildup of artillery for the Allied Expeditionary Force. He thought his office should have stationery reflecting the importance of the task. His request was rejected. Rather than fund this extravagance, it was suggested the general purchase a rubber stamp to mark his correspondence. Snow had joined a War Department completely unprepared to fight a war. The Army hadn’t been...

You may have seen this quote; it is on many Internet sites - all conservative: "Do not separate text from historical background. If you do, you will have perverted and subverted the Constitution, which can only end in a distorted, bastardized form of illegitimate government." I could not find a context for the quote, nor a source. So I started asking the experts. Sources at James Madison University and the University of Virginia (that specializes in the papers of James Madison) know nothing of this quote; and both are suspicious of the wording - they say it is not Madison-like....

Hey, i don't know if this has been posted before. But Whoa, Some crazy predictions here

JAMES MASON: THE SAD CAD By Simon Edge "...when the comic Eddie Izzard used to do a stream-of-consciousness ramble where he portrayed God as a bumbling figure with the voice of James Mason, it brought the house down. According deity status to this instantly recognisable British export, with his unique form of seductive caddishness, was cheeky but somehow fitting." James Mason "...was born in Huddersfield a century ago, the son of an affluent textile manufacturer..." "A century after his birth, that work still stands the test of time."

James 4:8 8 Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.

Blessed is the man that walketh not in the council of the ungodlt
