...What is clear is that Justice was playing hardball. It refused to grant Birkenfeld a cooperating witness agreement - at which point some lawyers would have advised their client to cease cooperation - and instead offered a temporary, so-called queen for a day agreement, giving him much less protection for what he voluntarily disclosed. At one point they even dismissed Birkenfeld as a mere tipster, not a whistle-blower. "Those who seek to be treated as true whistle-blowers need to know they must come in early and give complete and truthful disclosures, with no dissembling or holding back or spinning...
Well, for starters, Honey Butter is–in its .25 ounce serving size–only 26 "calories from fat," and, assuming you only eat 2,000 calories in a day (yeah right, you're in college), Honey Butter is only about one percent of your daily suggested intake!

"Every day in elementary school I would look up into the sky and see a four-ship formation of F-16s flying over, and I just thought that was the coolest thing," he recalls. "I always wanted to fly." By the time he entered high school, however, Petrizzo believed that his poor vision would keep him grounded...
...test could begin as early as next week. Reid canceled a scheduled weeklong break so that the Senate could get down to work immediately after Columbus Day. He plans to begin with what one aide described as a "bed-check vote" on Oct. 13, which could be an early indication of his ability to hold his Democrats together against the threat of a filibuster; that first vote is expected to be on a routine parliamentary procedure, such as whether to proceed to the bill. The House has not announced whether it will begin deliberations at the same time or shortly...
