The former USC star and NFL running back star is finally going to find his self behind bars. It might be 13 years too late, but OJ Simpson is finally going to be in police custody. OJ was the culprit in a double homicide that took place more than a decade ago; which he walked away from. The good folks in Nevada didn’t let him walk this time and OJ was found guilty on all 12 charges brought against him. He was the part of a armed robbery and kidnapping and the sentence could be a life term in prision. I think the Goldman family has to be very happy tonight knowing that justice finally got served in a round about way. It might not be the kind of justice they had hoped for, but they finally get to see OJ Simpson going to jail and he will be there for a very long time.

The exact sentence won’t be known until December 5th, but even if they give him a 20 year sentence and he only does 12 years for good behavior; he would be 73 years old when he got out. I think 12 years behind bars would be the least amount of time he would do and he really should be given a lot more than that. OJ Simpson won’t be a free man on our streets no more and I think a lot of Americans are happy about that tonight. OJ was the guilty party 13 years ago and his brutal slaying of two people deserved to be punished then and he got very lucky in a California courtroom. So any punishment he gets now will be well-deserved and there will be no such thing as “too harsh” of a punishment.

Our laws really need to change and the double jeopardy thing makes no sense, if someone really is guilty. OJ Simpson should have never walked our streets again after the horrible acts he did so long ago. He pushed his luck and found his self in a armed robbery in a Las Vegas hotel and there is no excuse for these wild and foolish acts. My prayers continue to be with the families that lost loved ones from the hands of OJ Simpson and I’m glad the jury in Las Vegas delievered action on the man that is no better than Hitler.

The top team in the nation is no more and they lost to Oregon State in front of a national audience. I was so happy to see the over ranked USC Trojans get beat by a team that wasn’t even ranked in the top 25. I have been so concerned with USC playing in a BCS Bowl Game this year and it’s nice to see the gods of college football bring them down to their rightful place. I would have thought a loss to a unranked team in the country would have moved them out of the top 25 in college football, but apparently that isn’t the case. I’m not sure why we still see a 2 win team in the top 10; when they lost to a team like Oregon State and other teams have 4 wins and can’t get a top ten ranking. The great thing is we have online sports videos to prove that teams like USC don’t belong in the top 10 teams in college football.

The sports videos are great online and give us sports nuts a chance to show others in the country what we mean when we say a player or a team is good or in this case, if they are really, really, really over rated! I watch a lot of sports vids and get to see things that I sometimes don’t get to see on the sports channels or just forgot they happened. It’s a great way to store treasured sports memories for our favorite professional, college or local teams. I know parents might not be aware that they can also upload sports videos of their kid playing sports online and this is a great way for you to share them with friends and family and for your child to show their friends. You can go to a place like SportsVids to upload your kid’s sports videos and if you don’t have any kids, just upload videos of your pro or college teams performing. I like watching all kinds of sports clips and seeing Michal Jordan and Vince Carter doing those amazing dunks or seeing a bone crushing tackle in football is always fun to watch for me. Instead of searching for certain sports memories at other places that have online videos, I’m glad that a place like SportsVids.com exists and devote a video sharing website to just sports. I think all of the sports fans out there that like watching the past again will start uploading their sports videos exclusively to SportsVids. If you have any sports videos you can upload and add to their content right now, please do and let’s get as many sports clips as possible uploaded over there.

Information is not properly being placed right now to the concerns of gas and fuel shortages in Georgia and the metro Atlanta area. The fuel problems at the pump will not be resolved anytime soon and all Georgia drivers need to take precautions now. You should keep your gas tanks as full as possible and also seek your own ways of stocking up on gas right now. If you don’t have a gas can, you really should buy a couple right now and fill them up on your next trip to a gas station that has gas. The problems in the South with gas shortages is only getting worse and these gas problems may extend well past Halloween and we might even be having these issues during Thanksgiving and Christmas this year. We haven’t seen the worse of the gas crisis in Atlanta and all Atlanta drivers better stock up on gas while it last in Georgia. The gas supply in our region is very low and it will take months to get things back up to normal capacity. The local news media in Atlanta is relaying bad information to the public right now and things would be better if we all rationed at the pumps. The people that try to ration at the pumps, will be the same people that can’t go to work or will be on the side of the road with no gas. You should be buying gas in gas cans right now and creating your own storage supplies. The leaders in Georgia and the oil executives has already let us down in Atlanta and surrounding areas and it’s time we take control of our own situations. If you need gas to do your daily tasks and to help bring in money to your household; you really need to create your own fuel storage supplies. Stop what your doing now and find gas cans and containers that will allow you to have at least a 10 gallon supply of gas at home and to keep your gas tanks as full as possible. Don’t stop buying gas until you see every gas station with gas. This is the easiest way to determine how serious the problem is and as long as you see gas stations that have no gas, means you need to continue to top off and buy extra supplies of gas to be kept at home. Don’t be surprised if Trick or Treating is called off for Halloween and this should give you an idea of just how close we are to fixing these problems. The gas crisis in Georgia is long from being over with and there are no improvements as of right now.

Who is the best college football team in the nation? I think the Georgia Bulldogs have a good case and being the favorite before the season started and winning all 4 games so far and two of them on the road in South Carolina and at Arizona State give them a good claim at the top overall spot in the nation. You can’t forget about the Oklahoma Sooners either and this team should have been number 2 on the polls before the season started. Georgia and Oklahoma both played well at the end of the year and had a lot of returning starters to their teams. I think they are clearly proven they are the best two teams in college football right now. I do look forward to seeing how long the LSU Tigers, Florida Gators, Missouri Tigers and BYU Cougars go this year and see if one of these teams can be up there with a Georgia or Oklahoma type powerhouse. So who do you think is the top team or teams in college football this year?

If you haven’t been on some other planet in the last couple of weeks, you’re probably aware of the troubles that Wall Street is currently having. The problems with the stock market and higher gas prices at the pump have really brought the economy down lately. So how do we survive times like these? Instead of trying to find the best stock to invest in right now, you should really eliminate some debts you have. If you can consolidate debt right now and look for ways to lower interest rates, this could prove to be your best money maker of the year. You can earn money just by lowering interest rates or getting rid of the bills you have that charge an interest rate. This is a way of making money that most of us forget about sometimes. Debt consolidation is a good way to bring a few bills together and have one payment each month you could focus on more.

The money you start to earn from debt consolidation should go straight to your savings. Just find a modest rate in a savings account from a bank or a money market fund that pays interest each month and this will be a safe approach with the economy like it is today. Bills.com talks about getting a debt consolidation loan and this could save you a lot of extra money too. If you could take money from a loan to knock out some of your current debts that you have to pay interest on each month; you could focus on the loan and just pay it back as fast as possible. You might even find yourself paying a lower interest rate than what you are now paying on some of you bills. So save your money right now and work on paying off a few debts and this will be the best way to add extra money to your wealth!

The SEC has added new rules to the naked short selling that was being done to drive companies value down. They now have added new rules that will slow the process and allow companies to sell off shares to add more value to their companies. I like Jim Cramer’s idea of trying to add in the “up-tick” rule and this would be great to see what would happen on a trial run. The financial sector of the market has been hammered and I have always liked this sector for steady gains.

Is now a good time to invest in the financial sector? I’m not sure if now would be a good time or not. I think I would prefer to play it safe and stay away from the financial sector of the market and see how things play out. You could make a big gain right now if you could pick out the right companies to invest in. The whole market is a value right now and I believe you can find safer bargains on Wall Street and let the financial sector sort things out without your money. Your already paying your tax dollars for these bailouts and you could do better by investing in other sectors of the market.

If you have more than 1 kid that is going back to school right now and you pack their lunches, I’m sure you have to pack each one different. No two kids like the same thing and you have to make them happy by preparing separate lunches. It can be confusing in the morning time what lunch got packed in which lunch bag. I guess a lunchbox would help but if you “brown bag” your lunches, then there’s really no way to tell. It’s much easier if you just add a label to each bag after you pack the lunch. It works the same way you would do with file folders in the way you would label them. You can get a label maker from Dymo Label Makers and these are sharp label makers. It saves time and it produces a very nice label to put on a folder or your kid’s lunch. So to avoid sending the wrong lunch out to the wrong child, you can save a kid from going hungry by just adding a label on their lunch bag each morning. I know this isn’t the answer to making our mornings enjoyable before work or school, but any little help we can have to make our mornings easier and less confusing is always welcomed!

The Dow Jones Industrial Average is going south and this comes from all the banking news being heard right now. Some bankruptcy talks have sent the markets in a tail spin and now the attention will be focused heavily on this current situation on Wall Street. As of right now the market is over 400 points down on the day and this could continue to go down over the next few days. I don’t like this as a buying opportunity right now and I believe the market will go much lower than this. I would wait until after the presidential election in November and try to move in after that. They are bargains available across the board and if you have a long term outlook on your investments now, you could slide in and take advantage of the latest declines. I would like to wait another week or two and see just how much lower the market will go before I put any new money into the Stock Market.

I have always been a fan of the financial and banking stocks, but things are going to get a bit worse for this sector of the market. I continue to like the big medical stocks and this is the best sector to take advantage of right now. The drug companies are in-line with some nice moves that will take place in 2009 and I would be searching out the big pharma stocks at this time. Retail stocks will see the usual end of the year boost, but not sure a lot after the new year rolls around. The drug makers will be a good place to add new money over the next 12 to 18 months and you should see positive gains in this area of the market. Wall Street is going bankrupt and these corrections are long over due and in the long run the Market will be stronger than ever. Hang in there and be patient with these huge losses we might see over the next couple of months. A presidential election and the ending of hurricane season will give the market a surge later on in the year.

Saturday will be a fun day in the Peach State as both of our top 2 college teams will be in action today. The Georgia Bulldogs will face the South Carolina Gamecocks and this will be the toughest match up for them this year. They will have their kick off the same time as the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets will be kicking off against Virginia Tech. Both of these games will start at 3:30 local time and this means a lot of work with the remote control and trying to keep up with the action in both games. The Georgia Bulldogs are the top team in the nation and the Yellow Jackets are a top 25 team this year and maybe after Saturday, the state of Georgia can lay their claim on both of these titles.

College football is different in Georgia than anywhere else in the country. It’s a religion here and when we don’t get proper justice in the rankings, we let it be known. The best college football talent remains in the South and we prove that every week, yet the rankings still show teams from all over the country. The team’s that play on the West Coast and in the North do not have the talent to match up with the teams in the South. We are college football and deserve a bigger share of the pie and these people that think they know college football, continue to put the southern teams down. We have the bowl games to prove where the best college football is at in the country and Georgia is in the center of the best college football in America.

Today’s teens are all about the latest electronic gadgets and they really like the ones you can put to the ears. You will find many boys and girls today that are in high school that have a cell phone in one ear and a cord running out the other ear for their tunes; while they might appear to not be listening to what is going on around them, many are looking out for the future and working on a greener tomorrow. I think the best step in the right direction for a better tomorrow does start with our kids and it’s great to see all of the young people that have become green kids. It’s never too early to start with our kids and those that have young daughters can get them an organic cotton t-shirt with the message “ECO Princess” on it. These shirts are available to all young girls up to the age of 5 at Fresh and Green. This is just one small step we can make now to have a greener tomorrow. A shirt that offers a great message and is made with things that is friendly to our environment. I have a young cousin that I think this shirt would be perfect for and everyone that would see her in this shirt would know that the young people are doing their part to help us solve the problems we have today with the environment. Teaching the young kids now will lead to having teens that are green thinkers and our teens are the future adults and leaders of tomorrow.

College football is one of the best things we have going on in America today. There is a lot of undue bias and misjustice that goes out each week, but the purity of the game remains a tradition here in the States. I wish they would come up with a better ranking system to show the top 25 teams each week, than to put teams in there that don’t belong. One thing that is clear and no one can argue is that the best two teams in college football this year are the Georgia Bulldogs and Oklahoma Sooners. Maybe we will get to see a game at the end of the year that will put the top 2 teams in college football this year against each other. We don’t always get the best bowl match ups and this is due to rich sponsors that give money to some of these schools. The money has corrupted the college game and the current popularity contest each year just leaves us with over ranked teams playing in games they shouldn’t be in. Fair play is what it’s all about and I think we all need to take a stand on the teams that get ranked high each year and fail to perform up to their standards. College football does need a playoff system and this will prove to people that teams like the Sooners and Bulldogs deserve to be put on a field to play against each other. I want to see the Oklahoma and Georgia game this year and this would be the best match up possible, but there’s a chance we might not get to see this if these bogus rankings continue to over rank teams like they have done for 2 weeks in a row now.

I know I have been watching a lot of the Olympics and it’s fun to see all the different countries competing in China. I think the event I like best is the men’s basketball. I really like the USA team or Redeem Team as they are being called this year. Seeing all the guys like Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Dwight Howard, Dwayne Wade and Carmelo Anthony on the same floor is exciting. I’m not sure why the Utah Jazz players are there and it seems like Carlos Boozer and Deron Williams is wasted space. Their play on the court proves that too and Williams and Boozer are clearly out-matched with the talent level on their team. Kick the Jazz players off and replace Carlos Boozer with a real athlete like Josh Smith of the Atlanta Hawks and then you have a nice front line. You could go get a Ray Allen, Tracy McGrady or Allen Iverson to replace Deron Williams who has struggled the most on the Redeem Team in the 2008 Olympics. The USA men’s team has a lot of weapons and I hope they can win the gold this year in China.

I also like the women’s team and its fun to know that no team has ever beaten them. Good job girls and I am rooting for you too and I hope you bring back a gold medal to the United States too. I think swimming has been popular this year and no wonder with Michael Phelps winning all the gold medals. Michael Phelps has won more overall gold medals than any other athlete ever and in 2008 he won more gold medals than any other person has in the same Olympic year. The USA women get to play Brazil on Thursday for the Gold Medal in soccer, but I really doubt they can beat Marta and that Brazilian team she is on. Marta is the best female soccer player in the world and I think Brazil is in the driver’s seat to win the gold medal in soccer. Let’s just hope the USA can pull a upset and keep Marta covered for 90 minutes. I wish we could use our MLB baseball players to play for our Olympic team, but the guys out there now are doing a great job. So those are a few things that come to my mind when I think about the 2008 Olympics that is currently underway in Beijing, China. What are some of your favorite events or athletes in this year’s Olympics?
