The minimum wage in America may officially be $7.25, but in fact there are Americans willing to work online for as little as 25 cents per hour—a fraction of the amount residents of Germany ($3), the Philippines ($2.25), and even India ($1) agreed to toil for. Or…

First shown nearly a year ago , what appears to be a leaked official photo might finally mean the forever teased A77 is finally on the horizon. If you’ll recall, the high-end Alpha was sporting a svelte see-through body , and the only tidbits the Japanese firm would confirm were the 2011 ship date and that all forthcoming Alpha’s would have translucent mirrors — you know, the spiffy kind that enables DSLRs to focus while shooting video. Opportunely, the above pictured image also came with a bevy of specs, which we’ll have to assume apply to the pricier A77: a 24 megapixel sensor, 11 point AF, 10 frame per second burst and an ISO of 102,400. Also on the docket is USB 3.0, and a ship date of October. Whether or not the August announcement pans out remains to be seen, but you’ll certainly know when we do.

Artist: Bob Seger System Stephen Colbert is airing a 3 part interview series with Jack White this week, and White declared this 1968 single his favorite of Seger’s work. I’m not too surprised that White would choose this song over ‘Like A Rock’ or Old Time Rock And Roll’. Anyway, this anti-war single was not much of a hit outside of Motor City and it’s also my favorite Seger tune.

June 22, 2011 No Comment
Bristol Palin has harsh words for both Meghan and Cindy McCain in her new book, Not Afraid Of Life: My Journey So Far, due out this Friday. According to ABC, Palin writes that the first time she met Sen. John McCain’s daughter she “ignored us during the entire visit.” She also “had a sneaking suspicion I might need to watch my back,” ABC reports. “Every time we saw Meghan, she seemed to be constantly checking us out, comparing my family to hers and complaining,” Palin writes. “Oh the complaining.” Cindy McCain doesn’t get off much easier. Palin writes that the senator’s wife carried herself “like a queen” and held “herself like royalty.” Palin also reports that Cindy McCain offered to be the godmother of her child. Palin also ridicules her former fiance, Levi Johnston who she describes as a “gnat … constantly spreading false accusations against our family.” She adds that he “cheated on me about as frequently as he sharpened his hockey skates.” In the book, Palin also reveals that she lost her virginity to Johnston on a camping trip after getting drunk for the first time. The AP reports: She awoke in her tent, alone, with no memories of what had happened as Johnston “talked with his friends on the other side of the canvas.” She had vowed to wait until marriage. And she had lied to her parents about where she was going. WATCH:

Milestone-maker may not be the first words that come to mind when you think ‘Wyoming,’ but consider this: the state lays claim to the first ever national park (Yellowstone), the first national monument (Devil’s Tower), and to being first for women’s suffrage. Not content to rely on these guilded laurels, Wyoming Governor Matt Mead put on his early adopter hat and marched all ten thousand civil servant soldiers into the Google cloud. It’s a major first for both parties, and might even help Google ease the federal government’s earlier MS-favoring snub . By switching solely to Google Apps for Government, Mead says the move will save his great territory significant coin, not to mention getting everybody under the Gmail umbrella like Los Angeles did back in 2009. Unintended consequence of the move? The inefficiency of, oh, about nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine workers whiling away their days on Gchat. Check below for official video of the address.

Type: Book Title: The Days of Summer See all customer reviews Product Description: New York Times bestselling author Jill Barnett sweeps readers away to the sultry California coast in a profoundly moving story about the power of forgiveness. One fateful night, a deadly accident at a Los Angeles intersection changes the lives and fortunes of three innocent women — Kathryn, Laurel, and Julia Peyton — destined to be caught in a tangled web of obsession, revenge, and unruly passion. Wealthy California oil magnate Victor Banning also lost his son and daughter-in-law that night, an accident caused by his own selfish actions and dark secrets. Afterward, Victor aspires to raise their sons Jud and Cale to be just like him: hungry predators in a dog-eat-dog world…until years later, everything changes when they meet Laurel Peyton. Spanning thirty years and three generations of Peyton women and Banning men, The Days of Summer follows both deeply affected families as they recover from the emotional heartbreak of tragedy and loss — only to cross paths once again in the most unexpected of ways. Provocative and lyrical, it explores the depth of blood ties, the mistakes we make in the name of love, and our ability to hope, forgive, and find the courage to change. See the details
