Al Franken decleared winner in Minnesota senate race...

After a long hard battle, that lasted almost eight months, Democrat Al Franken defeated Republican Norm Coleman in Minnesota’s U.S. Senate race.
The Supreme Court of Minnesota has spoken, and I respect its decision and will abide by the result,” Coleman said. “It’s time for Minnesota to come together under the leaders it has chosen and move forward. I join all Minnesotans in congratulating our newest United States senator: Al Franken.”

Franken, in remarks outside his Minneapolis home about an hour after Coleman’s concession, said he expected to be seated early next week. Franken has already been told that he’s been named to two key committees — Health, Education and Labor and Pensions and Judiciary.

“It is time to bring the whole state together,” Franken said. “Over the past eight months, … Minnesotans have earned the right to take pride in the transparency and thoroughness of our election process.”

So all things said an done, we welcome the newest senator from our Great state.

The passing of a Legend..............

It was with total shock on Thursday when i learned of Michael Jackson death. all of a sudden all the major TV network broke from their regular programs to break the news.
I was and still is a huge Jackson fan, i remember those days back in the late 80s when my brother and i would fight over Jackson stickers, we both adore the man, we wanted to be like him, and now he is gone forever.

The King of Pop lives on in our hearts

yesterday when i heard the news the first thing i did was rushed to Wal mart to buy some of his music, there was already a long line of people there for the same reason.
Just a couple of months ago he announced to the delight of his many fans, his come back tour in London, we were excited, we wanted to see the King rise again, and now its a shame he die without giving us one last performance.

Here is one of my favorite song ever from the legendary singer..

There will never be another entertainer like Michael ever.......he was truly the greatest, i am really thankful that i got to live in his time and be a part of the phenomenon. He will be miss dearly.

The fight for Democracy in Iran in pictures...

Hundreds of thousands of protesters dressed in black and green flooded the streets of Tehran on Thursday in a somber, candlelit show of defiance and mourning for those killed in clashes after Iran's disputed presidential election. Ayatollah Khamene and Ahmadinejad the Iranian bigot president apparently took for granted the strong will of the people to be free.......





Hundreds of thousands, including middle-class families and religious men and women, have flocked to Tehran's streets in recent days to declare their support for Mousavi. Similar, smaller protests have popped up in other cities in Iran.

The crowds in Tehran and elsewhere have been able to organize despite a government clampdown on the Internet and cell phones. The government has blocked certain Web sites, such as BBC Farsi, Facebook, Twitter and several pro-Mousavi sites that are vital conduits for Iranians to tell the world about protests and violence.
