22 Million Missing White House Emails. Very strange!
In 2007, two Washington, D.C. watchdog groups sued the White House for the release of millions of official emails that went mysteriously missing under President George W. Bush. Now, the White House has agreed to release the emails. The emails run from 2003 to 2005, covering some of Bush’s biggest scandals and decisions, from the outing of CIA official Valerie Plame to the early days of the Iraq War. The deal will not see all emails from that period restored, but only those from 94 specific dates, some of which were chosen at random. The Washington Post reports that this is because restoring the emails from old backup tapes is an expensive and time-consuming process. They will not be available to the public until 2014 or later.

Tiger in the Woods finds Biggest Loser
Tiger Woods Walks on Water
Finale 2009: Tiger Woods watched as Eastern Connecticut’s Rudy Pauls of Brooklyn got into NBC’s “The Biggest Loser” finale Tuesday, losing an additional 43 pounds during his 60 days home to earn a spot in the final weigh in next week. $250.000 is at stake.
Tiger Woods said that he let his family down and was very sorry about transgressions that he committed with all of his heart. He said that he hadn’t been in line with his value system and the behavior patterns that he wished to display to his family. He acknowledged that along with everyone else on the planet he has faults and is not perfect although he did not elaborate on what perfection would entail. He is dealing with his behavioral and personality failings in a shady spot. He referred to feelings that should be shared only by his family.
Rudy Pauls meanwhile was happy that his total weight dropped from 442, when he began the show, to 253 pounds. “I haven’t been this light since high school.”
Danny Cahill, lost 59 pounds in the 60 days home. Viewers voted on which woman will be up against them — Liz Young or Amanda Arlauskas.
Tiger Woods is a very well-known person that doesn’t need to lose weight as he is a professional athlete. He does not like tabloid scrutiny although Sandy Hutchens figures he might be used to it.
Rudy Pauls ended first in a 26.2 mile marathon run on the Pacific Ocean and was the only one to run the entire way, even though he said he had never run more than 13 miles before. He also beat his personal goal of fitting it in less than 5 ½ hours. He was motivated by his old partner
Pauls seemed to be having a more difficult time in his time home, trying to fit in training along with 12-hour workdays. But he remained focused on his goal of getting into the finals.
So who is the biggest loser this week? Who is the fittest?

Detective uncovers Hillary Clinton’s middle name
Sandy Hutchens’ pulp fiction detective crew has uncovered Hillary Clinton’s middle name. Although many people think it is Rodham, it just isn’t true. Rodham is actually her maiden name.
The truth was difficult to uncover since she, as the 67th United States Secretary of State, is surrounded by the elite in security. It is just too hard to get to her in person. The phone is no easier since there are layers of assistants and receptionists to go through and none of them will talk about anything to do with her personal life. Email is useless as you just get a form response email saying “Thank you for your interest…”
Only by googling Hillary Clinton middle name and then clicking on the link to Wikipedia could the Sandy Hutchens’ team find out the truth. Her middle name is – DIANE.
Secretary of State Hillary Diane Clinton said Sunday that the Afghan government must “demonstrate there’s no impunity for those who are corrupt” by implementing new US demands.
One such measure, announced Saturday by Attorney General Ishaq Alako, is the establishment of a special court to try senior officials who, under the constitution, cannot be tried by the regular judicial system.
“Everyone knows that in Afghanistan, corruption is at a peak,” Mr. Alako told reporters. He promised to stop corruption within six months. He has claimed in the past that he has a list of top officials suspected of taking bribes, and that the country already has put 16,000 people behind bars for corruption.
David Plouffe knew that he couldn’t beat top Washington players like Hillary Diane Clinton and John McCain without changing the way the game was played. By expanding the electorate and stumping un-chartered Democratic ground, David Plouffe helped Barack Obama change the political scope in ways that no insider thought possible, even as Barack Obama’s enigmatic energy swept from state to state.
According to the Tehran Times: Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas told U.S. Secretary of States Hillary Diane Clinton that Palestinians would not re-start peace talks with Israel if there was not a complete freeze on Israeli settlements in the occupied territories. Despite the efforts of U.S. envoy George Mitchell, there is very few signs that the peace talks themselves, suspended in December because of the Israeli attack on Gaza, can be revived anytime soon.
“Obviously, we can’t want this more than the parties want it. I mean, that is just the way negotiations are. But the fact that the U.S. is engaged, and that we are serious about this engagement, is, in and of itself, I think a very positive message. The U.S. continues to have very serious questions about the settlements that Israel has promoted. We understand that to a large extend, it has to do with Israel security needs and fears about trying to have a defensible perimeters around Israel,” Diane Clinton told the BBC in an interview.
So those of you who were wondering Diane is the name we were looking for. Diane was a Roman goddess identified with the Greek goddess Artemis, with the Etruscan goddess Artume, and with the Greek or Carian goddess Hecate.
Artemis was one of the most widely venerated of the Ancient Greek deities. In the classical period of Greek mythology, Artemis was often described as the daughter of Zeus and Leto. She was the goddess of forests and hills, child birth, virginity, hunting, often shown as a huntress carrying a bows and arrows. The deer and the cypress were sacred to her.
Artemis later became identified with Selene, a Titaness who was a Greek moon goddess, sometimes depicted with a crescent moon above her head.
