...Karaoke Channel Online (a Web version of the Karaoke Channel on cable) is a nifty service that streams professional-grade karaoke - with scrolling lyrics, instrumental and sing-along modes, and a community you can share your recorded masterpieces with - for $9.95 a month. (Only a fanatic or high-end home-karaoke-bar owner would pay that, of course; do-it-yourselfers can pay $14.95 per day, which is good for a party.) The site is the brainchild of Alexandre Taillefer, a fellow entrepreneur, who, not too long ago, got into the karaoke biz after hosting a sing-along party...
...enormous amounts of information they had already amassed under its already enormous surveillance power. One of the points the Sept. 11 Commission made was that excessive secrecy actually undermined national security because it was hard to get information out.

...band in the desert with a couple of amps, some lighting rigs, and a few carnivorous land animals? The Killers’ latest video for their new single “Human,” of course. Despite the rather random concept of this short (a mix of Discovery Channel and Siegfried and Roy), the stark setting and lack of narrative definitely highlights their most obvious talent—live performance. And those who have followed this group since their formative days of indie hair and the bejeweled synthesizer will appreciate the simplicity in technique that evokes nostalgia...
...matchup featuring two of the most storied franchises in the game, baseball has the Tampa Bay Rays and the Philadelphia Phillies. That would be 2007's worst team in baseball vs. a franchise that recently lost its 10,000th game. The sound you hear is the country flipping the channel en masse to America's Next Top Model...
