Battle of the Sunday AM News Shows On Valentine's Day!!!

A composite image of Joe Biden, Dick Cheney, and Barack Obama.

 

Former VP Dick Cheney will appear on ABC's "This Week" on Sunday, and it’s a safe bet what he will say the current administration projects weakness to terrorists and puts American lives at risk.

Meanwhile, current VP Joe Biden will be on NBC's "Meet the Press" and CBS's "Fact the Nation".

In his Meet the Press segement which was taped on Saturday, Biden unloaded on Cheney and accuses him of trying to re-write history.  Gonna be some FIREWORKS before the Daytona 500 fireworks at 1P on Fox!!!

The map shows individual visits to the web site shown at the top of the page, clustered within a given distance.

The location of each visit is based on the IP address of the computer used, one IP address per visitor per 24-hour period.
No personally identifiable information is ever obtained or stored in order to place a 'dot on the map' [see Privacy statement].

Update frequency: The statistics for counting and the map udpates happen at different times. Counting is updated every 24 hours.
Map updates can be set by the map owner to happen daily, weekly, or monthly. In addition, in order for your map to be updated (whether daily, weekly, or monthly) the number of visitors shown must also have grown by a certain percentage since the last update. The required percentage may have changed recently, as explained in our FAQ about update frequency.

Our counters have proven to be extremely accurate and reliable over several years, but different counters work differently (e.g. some count hits rather than visits, and some count multiple pages or define a 'visit' differently). Total/subtotal discrepancies may be caused either by IP addresses not currently being in the database or by the gap between counter tallies and map updates.

See FAQ for additional explanations.

Yes!! It's not my MOTHER'S NASCAR anymore!!! There are NASCAR races OUTSIDE the USA

Yes....there ARE NASCAR races outside of the US....there are Nationwide races on the road courses in Mexico and Canada and there has been a race in Japan.

Better television coverage through cable partners and better logistics to get the cars through customs at the HUGE UPS facility on the Texas/Mexico boarder make these events easier to stage and televise.

911 Hijackers FL apartment to be razed.

Mohamed Atta and Marwan Al-Shehhi lived in a second floor, walk-up unit in Hollywood, Fl.  That building will soon be transformed into a parking lot and pool.

Atta and Al-Shehhi, pilots of the two planes that crashed into the twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York, occupied the corner apartment from May through June 2001.

"I feel like no one will be upset about that, considering who used to be a tenant there," said Bryan Grosman, the investor who recently bought the 13-unit apartment building.

"It is one of life's little treats to be able to demolish a property like that, where a monster used to reside," Grosman said.

The current occupant of apartment 3A is Madelyn Karpowicz, 65, knew of the unit's previous tenants when she moved in seven months ago. "At first it was a little disconcerting," she said. "There were times when I said, 'God, do I want to live in an apartment that was used by murderers?' "

Grosman bought the building in late December so he could put in a pool and parking for the new housing complex he owns next door. He notified tenants that the building would be demolished this month. If they agreed to leave by Jan. 31, they would be forgiven that month's rent. All accepted, Grosman said.

Former owner Frank LoRusso of New Jersey said he wouldn't have bought the building in 2005 had he known the Sept. 11 terrorists once lived there.

"We didn't want to have any part of that. We happened to have known a number of people who lost their lives on that day," he said.

"We had nothing but aggravation from the day we bought that place," LoRusso said. "It was like it was cursed."
