In Pennsylvania, a gunman entered a one-room Amish school house on Monday and shot 11 girls in the head. Five of the girls died, the six others are in critical condition. The man – a local milk truck driver — entered the schoolhouse and ordered all of the boys and adults to leave. He then ordered the girls to line up facing the blackboard. After he tied them up, he shot them all in the head. This marks the third school shooting in the past week. Last Wednesday, a gunman took six students hostage at a high school in Colorado. The gunman sexually assaulted the girls and killed one of them. And on Friday, a 15-year-old student shot dead a teacher at a high school in Wisconsin.

The facts of the disgrace of Mark Foley, who was a Republican member of the House from a Florida district until he resigned last week, constitute a disgrace for every Republican member of Congress. Red flags emerged in late 2005, perhaps even earlier, in suggestive and wholly inappropriate e-mail messages to underage congressional pages. His aberrant, predatory -- and possibly criminal -- behavior was an open secret among the pages who were his prey. The evidence was strong enough long enough ago that the speaker should have relieved Mr. Foley of his committee responsibilities contingent on a full investigation to learn what had taken place, whether any laws had been violated and what action, up to and including prosecution, were warranted by the facts. This never happened.

The Army's top officer withheld a required 2008 budget plan from Pentagon leaders last month after protesting to Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld that the service could not maintain its current level of activity in Iraq plus its other global commitments without billions in additional funding. The decision by Gen. Peter J. Schoomaker, the Army's chief of staff, is believed to be unprecedented and signals a widespread belief within the Army that in the absence of significant troop withdrawals from Iraq, funding assumptions must be completely reworked, say current and former Pentagon officials. ” [

In not so related Brad and Angelina news, the NY Post ’ s Page Six, reports today that Donald Trump has said either Brad Pitt is crazy or a genius for not marrying Angelina Jolie. Trump, in his blog, questioned Brad ’ s statement in Esquire magazine as to why he and Angelina aren ’ t married yet. Pitt said that they wouldn ’ t marry until “ everyone else in the country who wants to be married is legally able. ” Trump says, “ Obviously, Brad is trying to be a social activist and make a point... Or at least that ’ s what he wants people to think. Maybe he ’ s just come up with an excellent way to stay a bachelor. It makes him look really concerned about the plight of other people. Yet at the same time, he doesn ’ t have to get married. This guy is smarter than I thought. ”

It must be noted that the NFL really did a poor job of assessment on the punishment levied against Titans Lineman Albert Haynesworth. On Sunday, Haynesworth made the face stomp the whole world heard/saw to the face of Cowboys lineman Andre Gurode. He could have easily blinded Gurode for life. With this being stated the NFL decided to suspend Haynesworth for ONLY 5 NFL games. Essentially he will be playing again before Thanksgiving. A man almost loses an eye and the perp gets a smack on the wrist. Way to go NFL.

Today's news about Orlando Hernandez's potential calf injury is a bigger blow than Pedro Martinez's because the Mets were already preparing themselves for a postseason without Pedro. El Duque was the primary reason, Exhibit A of Plan B. If Hernandez can not pitch in Game 1 of the NLDS tomorrow, that puts Steve Trachsel in Game 1 -- Tom Glavine had already pitched his bullpen session and can not take the spot -- and puts John Maine (unless he gets Game 1) as the Game 3 starter in Dodger Stadium. And what the heck is a 44-year-old Hernandez doing running sprints the day before he's to pitch in the postseason? He's a veteran; he should just be left to pitch.

People would still buy the magazines, they'd still buy the pictures, but they would always go,'I don't know if these guys are putting us on or not.'" You heard it here ladies of Hollywood.
