A few days...

Blogging will be back to normal soon enough, just please bare with me.

Congratulations to the new board of the Kentucky Young Democrats. Best of luck.

On to sports news...Chris Carpenter picked up his 17th win this season. Jason Marquis picked up his 5th multi-hit game this season. He leads the Cardinal pitchers with 23 hits, tying Bob Forsch's 23 from 1980. His hits didn't do much as he lost his fifth straight start. Matt Morris was unsuccessful last night in trying to get his 100th career win. Morris is in 2nd for Cardinal wins against the Cubs. Bob Forsch owns 21 during his career. Morris is tied with Tom Glavine with 6 wins against the Cubs at Wrigley for players that have never called Wrigley home. Yesterday marked the anniversary of Bob Gibson's no-hitter. Tony LaRussa needs 6 wins to tie Sparky Anderson.

David Ortiz has hit over 100 homers as a member of the Red Sox. He joins Manny Ramirez, Trot Nixon, and Jason Varitek of current players in that club. Manny is close to 100 homers at Fenway as a Red Sox. Boston is one of the top teams with great records since the All-Star break. They are up 4.5 games in the AL East. The Sox won at least 13 games in a row at Fenway, the longest streak since 24 games in 1988(June 25-August 13).

Chris Martin says he's dissapointed that his marriage has ruined meeting superstars.

He says, "After being with Gwyn I've realised everyone is human.

"We really build people up as if they are from Mars. Hollywood seems as accessible as Mars.

"When I started meeting celebrities it was depressing because you can't believe in the mythology of people any more."

New "Beatle" track to be released.I must admit though since it was during rehearsal for the Concert for Bangladesh, I don't think that would make it a new Beatles track since only two were performing on it.

New footage of members of The Beatles playing a Rolling Stones song has emerged and will be aired for the first time on a forthcoming DVD.

Deceased Beatles guitarist George Harrison and drummer Ringo Starr jammed a version of Jumpin' Jack Flash during a rehearsal for fundraiser Concert For Bangladesh at New York City's Madison Square Garden in 1971.

The low-key performance, which also sees legendary guitarist Eric Clapton joining in, was discovered among 150 hours of material in the archives of The Beatle's company Apple.

A new DVD of the concert film, which also stars Bob Dylan and Leon Russell, will be released in October (05).

The DVD's editor, Claire Ferguson, says, "We were lucky enough to discover this fantastic rehearsal footage which had just been sitting in the archive for 34 years.

"It was an incredible treasure trove."

With regards to the situation in the Middle East, I side with those Israelis being evicted. It's our G-d given land!
