...this garment? I started to do the research. It is in fact body-shaping underwear and it says things on the website like, "It's power panties." The only thing I could think, truly, is that if women had power, they wouldn't need Spanx. Aren't I right? So I threw them away...
...addict's son who is adopted by a nice white couple and pulls himself up to be a star tackle at Ole Miss. (Sort of Rudy meets Precious.) It doesn't hurt that the movie's subject, Michael Oher, graduated impressively from college to the NFL. As a starting right tackle for the Baltimore Ravens, he is ranked second on ESPN.com's Rookie Watch and is a possible Pro Bowl selection in his first year.

...Honduran streets, people expressed mixed feelings about the vote. Shopkeeper Nelson Hernandez said he had liked Zelaya but now intends to cast his ballot for Porfirio "Pepe" Lobo, the center-right timber magnate who is leading the polls. "We need security in this country and I think Pepe can give us that," he said. In second place is businessman Elvin Santos, who is a member of Zelaya's Liberal Party but is a vocal critic of the ousted president. (Zelaya himself could not run even if he was in power, as presidents are restricted to one term.) Three other candidates...
