Shame on the New York Post!
Yesterday, the day after President Obama signed his stimulus bill into law, the NY Post ran a cartoon depicting the bill's "author" as a dead monkey, covered in blood after being shot by police. You can see the image by clicking on the link below.
Please join me and other ColorOfChange.org members in demanding that the Post apologize publicly and fire the editor who allowed this cartoon to go to print:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mr. Carlucci,
How sad that your newspaper desires publicity so much, you are willing to stoop so low. I was personally offended by the racist cartoon published by your newspaper; Not only as an African American Women, but as an American. We are finally to a place in history, where we are seeing a positive change in our country. More than 50 years after the old Jim Crow South, your newspapers chose to take a giant step backwards. You should be ashamed. You have not only insulted our president, but you have disgraced your friends, family, employees, and viewers.
I pray that you will somehow be enlightened and realize all the people whom you have insulted; I pray that by the grace of God you become bigger person and make a public apology. May God forgive you for your moral transgressions, and may God help me to forgive you as well.
Sincerely,
P. Walker Williams, League City, TX.

Tech Talk: The Kindle 2
I have had my Kindle (version 1) since October 2008, and I really have enjoyed it. Amazon release a new version this week, and while it looks impressive, there are not enough new bells and whisles to make me upgrade. But if you have been eyeing this baby, now is the time to buy. Take a look at this CNET.com Review:

Tech Talk: Trevor Baylis Eco Media MP3 Player
If you live in hurricane country like I do, you may want to consider buying one on these babies! The Eco Media Player gives you the freedom to listen to your favourite music, watch dazzling movie clips, tune in to FM radio stations and thumb through photo albums; all without the need for external power or expensive and environmentally harmful batteries. How cool is that! It is a little pricey at $199.00, but It seems like a really neat device. One minute of winding the eco-power dynamo provides up to 40 minutes play time.
