BURBANK, Calif. (AP) - "Baywatch" actress Alexandra Paul and another woman were arrested Monday after blocking the path of trucks hauling GM's pioneering EV1 electric cars to Arizona to be destroyed, police said. Officers booked Colette Divine and Paul, who played Lt. Stephanie Holden on the TV series, on suspicion of failing to obey an officer, police Lt. William Berry said. The women, both of Los Angeles, were released on their own recognizance and were scheduled to be arraigned Tuesday. The two were among dozens of electric car supporters holding an around-the-clock vigil outside a General Motors Corp. training center...

Here's wishing all Prayer Warriors and our beloved troops and all standing with them a belated yet very sincere Happy Thanksgiving! I know I'm echoing many when I say we have so very much to be thankful for. High on my list are our magnificent countrymen who stood in lines throughout the nation and voted for the more difficult and rewarding path of Liberation and Morality. High on my list are the precious young men and women who have "placed themselves between their loved homes and the war's desolation" by serving in our armed forces and in our intelligence services...

DALLAS -- A candlelight vigil took place Wednesday night to remember U.S. war dead in Iraq during the week of the 1,000th casualty. One North Texas family, whose relative -- Chad Drake -- was killed outside Baghdad Monday, was among the mourners at Dallas City Hall Plaza. The vigil, though, turned abrasive toward the family members, according to a family friend. The friend sent an e-mail message to NBC 5 News that described the treatment some vigil attendees directed at the family. Drake's mother was "harassed and yelled at, booed and hissed, told her son died for nothing," the message...

Just wanted to let everyone know that there will be a Vigil for Pittsburgh's Highland Drive VA Hospital (another VA Hospital set to close), tomorrow, 7/22/04, from 5:00 p.m. until 7:00 p.m. at the KDKA Garden's behind Gateway Center. I'm not too sure if Highland Drive will be able to be saved, but I am sure that the more people that we have there the stronger the message will get out to our elected officials that closing VA Hospitals is something that we will not tolerate. We have troops coming home everyday, and we need to make sure that every...

This pastor was overwhelmed to have led the benediction at the close of the Memorial Service of Ronald Wilson Reagan in Columbia, MO on Friday, June 11th, 2004. It was an honor that was certainly undeserved. The ceremony was a dual blessing. On the one hand, it was an opportunity to celebrate a President who single-handedly brought an end to the Soviet Union without a single shot being fired. History will never forget his June 12th, 1987 appeal from West Germany: "General Secretary Gorbachev, if you seek peace, if you seek prosperity for the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, if...

WASHINGTON -- They met at midnight under clear moonlit skies, strangers standing on a patch of foot-worn grass. There were cattlemen from Texas, soldiers from Virginia, two nuns, two interns in party dresses, a college kid from Delaware wearing a handmade tribute T-shirt. Three suit-and-tie Republicans from Connecticut waited with a child from Washington too young to know why he was there and a Nicaraguan man from California who said it was the least he could do.

I know it is a little late, but I wanted to at least post some pictures of our FReeping Vigil for President Regan. After some rapid action and planning, we organized a small vigil to remember President Ronald Wilson Reagan. 7:30pm Monday evening (6/7/04). The heavy rains let up a bit as we started gathering in the park. It seemed kind of fitting. As the sadness of our loss lifted, we were left to share with each other the joy we felt at having been touched by this great leader. We looked through pictures and re-read the speeches while listening...
