Lady Gaga Eyes Neverland Ranch

Seems like a match made in bizarre celebrity heaven. Gaga wants to get her claws on Michael’s old stomping grounds, and she is serious! I couldn’t think of a better person to acquire the property, could you? Now before you have visions of Lady Gaga marching around Neverland in thigh-highs, sipping drinks with her other celeb friends — consider this. Sources say she actually just wants to keep it in the Jackson family for the sake of his kids. As you know the estate has had some financial troubles — mostly because everybody and their third cousin wants a piece — so the property was actually in jeopardy of getting sold off to some random schmoe. What’s more, the queen Monster herself has actually bought up a nice truckload of MJ memorabilia in recent times. Most people believe it’s because she doesn’t want to see it exploited by random collectors. At the time, she tweeted: “The 55 pieces I collected today will be archived and expertly cared for in the spirit and love of Michael Jackson, his bravery, and fans worldwide.” Okay, so we have established that she has good intentions. That’s all nice, warm and fuzzy feeling. So what [...]

PFT: Uncertainty still looms over Garrett in Dallas

AP

After a bad experience with him as an offensive coordinator, former Raiders wide receiver Tim Brown said he was ?shocked? the Bears gave Marc Trestman a head coaching job.

?I don?t want to say it was a joke, but I just never saw Trestman as being a head coach,? Brown said on the Waddle & Silvy Show on ESPN 1000 in Chicago.

Brown was the lead dog in Oakland, with nine straight 1,000-yard seasons. But Trestman took over and some guy named Jerry Rice (who was familiar with Trestman?s West Coast principles) became a more prominent part of the game plan.

?The year he took over as offensive coordinator is also the year my reign with the Raiders ended because he made Jerry the No. 1 receiver instead of myself,? Brown said. ?The year before I made the Pro Bowl and caught [91 passes for 1,165 yards] ? and the year afterwards, the year he takes over I think I came like 50 yards from catching 1,000 yards in 10 or 11 straight seasons.

?Hey, look, I?m not a selfish player, but come on, if I put the work in, make this happen for me. We had some interesting words about that part of it.?

The personal beef is obvious, but Brown said he wondered if Trestman had the interpersonal skills to be the boss.

?He?s a really smart guy, knows football like the back of his hand. That?s not the issue,? Brown said. ?But there?s a lot more to coaching than just Xs and Os. You have to be able to deal with players and that?s the reason [former Raiders coach] Bill Callahan hasn?t succeeded as a head coach because he?s a smart guy, knows football like the back of his hand, but when it comes to leading me, it?s a totally different intangible you have to have.

?It?s going to be very interesting to see how [Trestman] and Jay Cutler get along, that?s for sure.?

Those questions about Trestman are far from new, and there are plenty of NFL types who grumble about what they perceive as an air of intellectual superiority Trestman carries himself with. But he also has experience as a head coach (even though it was in the CFL) since then, and has likely learned something about man-management.

As "Roe v. Wade" turns 40, most oppose reversing abortion ruling

(Reuters) - Most Americans remain opposed to overturning the controversial Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade, which 40 years ago legalized abortion at least in the first three months of pregnancy, according to a poll released Wednesday.

The poll by the Pew Research Center found that 63 percent of Americans believe that Roe v. Wade should not be completely overturned, compared to 29 percent who believe it should be. These opinions have changed little from surveys conducted in 2003 and 1992, Pew reported.

Michael Dimock, director of the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press, said it is uncommon to see so little change in attitudes on a controversial issue.

"They really haven't changed a lot over the years which is kind of interesting because a lot of other social issues have changed a lot, gay marriage being the most notable example," said Dimock.

He noted that opinions on issues such as gay marriage sometimes have a sharp generational divide, with younger people more likely to favor it, so national feelings change over time.

But the abortion issue shows only modest generational differences, and no gender gap.

Those most likely to favor upholding Roe v. Wade at 69 percent are the "baby boomers" aged 50-64, who were children or young adults when the case was decided on January 22, 1973. This group was followed by those 18-29 years old, who favored upholding the decision by 68 percent.

NARAL Pro-Choice America, a national abortion rights group, said the data confirms what NARAL has found in its own research.

"This poll is a reminder that the public clearly agrees, and has done so for decades," said Tarek Rizek, communications director for NARAL.

Joseph Scheidler, prominent abortion opponent and national director of the Pro-Life Action League, said opinions about abortion have changed since 1973 because of advances like ultrasound, which allow a better understanding of fetal life.

"I don't worry much about these polls..." said Scheidler. "I think a majority of Americans prefer to be called pro-life." He said knocking down Roe v. Wade - which would return the issue to the states - is not as important as educating people on "the great evil" of abortion.

The Pew poll also found that 53 percent of the U.S. public say the issue of abortion is not that important compared to other issues - the first time that number has been over 50 percent. Dimock said this may reflect Americans' current preoccupation with issues such as the national debt and gun control.

There are still wide religious differences over whether to overturn Roe v. Wade and the morality of abortion, the poll found. White evangelical Protestants are the only religious group in which a majority - 54 percent - favors overturning the decision.

Large percentages of white mainline Protestants (76 percent), black Protestants (65 percent) and white Catholics (63 percent) say the ruling should not be overturned.

U.S. Roman Catholic Bishops called for nine days of prayer and penance starting Saturday to mark the Roe v. Wade anniversary. In their press release, the bishops asked for prayers for "healing and conversion" for elected officials who support abortion and for all people whose lives have been affected by it.

The Pew poll also shows that 47 percent of Americans say they believe it is morally wrong to have an abortion. These opinions have changed only modestly in recent years.

Younger people are less likely to know what Roe v. Wade was about. While most respondents over 30 knew Roe v. Wade dealt with abortion, only 44 percent of those under 30 knew this, the poll found. The question over whether the decision should be overturned was asked after it was defined to respondents.

The poll was based on interviews with a national sample of 1,502 adults, aged 18 or over, with a margin of error of plus or minus 2.9 percentage points.

Tunisians take to streets two years after Ben Ali's fall

Tunis (Reuters) - Thousands of Tunisians protested against the Islamist-led government on Monday, exactly two years after the overthrow of President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali in a popular revolt that inspired others across the Arab world.

More than 8,000 secular demonstrators gathered outside the Interior Ministry in Tunis's Bourguiba Avenue, the same spot where protests forced Ben Ali to accept his rule was over and flee the country on January 14, 2011.

The moderate Islamist Ennahda party won elections in October 2011 but has struggled to restore security and stability.

Protesters are unhappy about unemployment and high prices as well as violence linked to religious elements.

They filled the capital's central boulevard on Monday carrying banners that read "No fear, no horror, power belongs to the people" and "No to emerging dictatorship. No to religious dictatorship".

Waving red and white Tunisian flags, they chanted: ""Ennahda out" and "Where is the constitution? Where is democracy?"

Tunisians rose up against Ben Ali after street peddler Mohamed Bouazizi set fire to himself in the town of Sidi Bouzid.

Unrest then convulsed much of the Arab world, ousting or challenging entrenched rulers in Egypt, Libya, Yemen, Bahrain and Syria, which is still mired in a civil war that the United Nations says has cost more than 60,000 lives.

"I was here two years ago in the same place. The dictator is gone and we got freedom of expression but we still face many difficulties such as outbreaks of violence, lack of security, the continuation of unemployment and the high cost of living," Republican Party leader Maya Jribi told Reuters.

In the same street, about 2,000 supporters of the Islamic-led government gathered to celebrate the second anniversary of the revolution but there were no clashes between the two sides.

Hundreds of riot police took up positions in the street.

"The opposition is trying to frustrate the government and refuses dialogue or participation in any government," Ahmed Salhi, a 45-year-old government supporter, told Reuters.

"Their only goal is not to see the Islamists rule Tunisia ",

Tension has been growing between Islamists and secularists since the Ennahda Movement won the election.

Last month, hundreds of government supporters and leftists clashed in the capital, stoking fears about the success of the transition to democracy.
