Wealth Oprah Winfrey tops a list of the highest-paid US TV stars, with an estimated $260 million a year, according to "TV Guide's" July 23 issue. To put that in perspective that is over a million dollars every two days. She will make one billion every four years. I think I need a raise. Cheating Tour de France leader Michael Rasmussen was removed from the race by his team after winning Wednesday's stage, the biggest blow yet in cycling's doping-tainted event. While back in America, how many more homeruns does Barry Bonds need? The State Department of Revenue Services is sending notices this month to Connecticut residents who owe state taxes on unstamped cigarettes they bought over the internet. State tax officials don't have a specific amount of money that they expect to collect, but one individual reportedly owes more than $11,000 dollars. Money that literally went up in smoke. Worry The $100-a-barrel oil that Goldman Sachs Group Inc. said would be a reality by 2009 may be only a few months away. Jeffery Currie, a London-based commodity analyst at the world's biggest securities firm, says $95 crude is likely this year unless OPEC unexpectedly increases production. Isn't this a sign of the apocalypse? Starbucks said that due to the rising cost of items including dairy products and fuel, it will raise its US prices for lattes, Frappuccinos and other drinks by nine cents, the second price hike in less than a year. Americans can deal with the high cost of gas, but you better not mess with their coffee. One person was killed and as many as 30 others were injured after a steam pipe exploded on the East Side of Manhattan during Wednesday's evening rush hour. The blast was caused by a ruptured 83-year-old steam pipe. New Yorkers not only have to worry about terrorism, but old pipes laying under ground as well? Different A major strategy in the overhaul of the Swedish Tax Authority is based on scientific studies of ape societies that concluded that people work best in groups of about 150. The idea has translated to about 1,350 agency workers being moved from small towns to larger cities, although no more than 150 people will be in any single office. Whereas, most of Americans work under the elephant model; that is, they work for peanuts. Serious A bouncer was shot at point-blank range after asking three men to stop smoking at a London nightclub. The British must be very serious about their nicotine over there. Unimproved A couple days ago, Democratic presidential hopefuls were in Charleston, South Carolina, taking part in a debate sponsored by CNN and YouTube.com. Presidential debate formats have advanced and improved, but the candidate's answers have not. Wrong Family members in Loveland, Colorado, are singing the praises of a 4.5-pound hero who jumped between a toddler and a backyard rattlesnake. That hero is a 10-month-old Chihuahua named Zoey, who got bitten on the forehead. She barely survived, but let us not give Michael Vick any more ideas. Movie This past weekend, Ben & jerry's unveiled a special, Homer Simpson-inspired ice cream flavor during the celebration of "The Simpsons" movie premier. The flavor, called Duff & D'oh-nuts, is described by the company as a combination of chocolate and cream stout ice creams with glazed chocolate doughnuts. Not surprising, Lisa Simpson won't eat it. She wanted another ice cream flavor called "Soy Milk & Alfalfa Extravaganza." Quote this article on your site | Views: 280 | Print | E-mail
