Was walking my two chihuahuas this morning, as I do everyday, when I hear the male screeching in horror. I look back thinking maybe an insect bit him but I see this large coyote pouncing on him. I run like hell screaming but the fukhead wouldnt budge. It only started backing up when I got about 5ft from it then my female chi goes after it. And She starts shrieking and Im thinking she was bitten. I start screaming and run after it again and it finally takes off. So what do my 10LB chis do?? They chase... More...

WASHINGTON (Reuters) ? U.S. business productivity in the third quarter grew at the fastest pace in six years and new claims for jobless aid fell to a 10-month low last week, indicating the decline in labor market may be hitting bottom.

The Labor Department said on Thursday productivity surged at a 9.5 percent annual rate, the quickest pace since the third quarter of 2003, as companies squeezed more output from a smaller pool of labor to cut costs.

Analysts polled by Reuters had forecast productivity, which measures the hourly output per worker, rising at a 6.4 percent rate in the... More...

Two women, including his former wife and a recent girlfriend, say that Oakland Raiders coach Tom Cable has a history of violent behavior toward women.

In separate interviews with ESPN's "Outside the Lines," Sandy Cable and Marie Lutz say that Cable hit them during relationships dating back more than 20 years.

Cable's alleged temper has been in the news since August, when Oakland assistant coach Randy Hanson accused Cable of breaking his jaw during an altercation in a coaches meeting.

WASHINGTON ? The economy grew at a 3.5 percent pace in the third quarter, the best showing in two years, fueled by government-supported spending on cars and homes. It's the strongest signal yet that the economy has entered a new, though fragile, phase of recovery and that the worst recession since the 1930s has ended.

Going forward, many analysts expect the pace of the budding recovery to be plodding due to rising unemployment and continuing difficulties by both consumers and businesses to secure loans.

"This welcome milestone is just another step, and we still have a long road... More...

In the early morning hours of July 16, two Douglas County sheriff?s deputies were combing through the crowds around the gaming tables at Harrah?s Lake Tahoe casino in Stateline, Nev., trying to find a certain high-roller, a sort-of celebrity, a wanted man. They carried a snapshot with them, just to be sure they arrested
the right guy.

It wasn?t a face they knew well, but we do.



It was Antoine Walker.


Near the cabaret bar, the deputies spotted the former Celtics all-star forward, chatting with a group of friends. Harrah?s security officials moved in, discreetly escorting him into an... More...

As a lifelong Raiders fan, I am officially embarrassed.

At least our future looks brighter with DuMarcus Russell (39.8% completion, 1TD, 4 INT, 42.4 QB Rating) and Darren McFadden (145yds, 1 TD) leading the way.

Not often a team drafts BACK to BACK busts with top 4 picks.
