RSS is an Internet format that gives you a new way to quickly and easily access Web-based headlines, blurbs, and article links from a wide variety of sources. It's most often used for showing the latest headlines from online newspapers, magazines, weblogs, and vendor and technology information sites. Using Automatic Discovery To access an RSS feed, you need a software program known as a news aggregator or RSS reader. If you already have a news aggregator and it supports auto-discovery, you can usually add an RSS link for a given site by using your aggregator to surf the home page of that Web site. Adding An RSS Link Manually When auto-discovery doesn't work, the manual process is easy enough: 1. Copy the RSS feed link from the content site.
Joe Arpaio and Andrew Thomas are teaching the rest of the nation how ...
On a cool, clear Friday night in early February, about a hundred people are packed into the Casa Blanca Lounge on Van Buren Street in downtown Phoenix. Many of them have come for "communion" with local punk/thrash quartet NunZilla. But the "nuns" here aren't anything like the ones who rapped your knuckles with rulers in Catholic school, and this communion is more like an anarchistic tent revival. .
Ex High-Flying UK Banker Launches TV For Addicts
A former London banker whose cocaine addiction cost him his high-flying job and nearly destroyed his marriage has created Britain's first television channel to help addicts and their families. Dan Butcher, 34, from Berkshire, developed an addiction that left him suicidal while running a foreign exchange trading desk at a firm in London's financial district known as the "City." "If I didn't have a wife and children I would have killed myself," he told Reuters in an interview. "If they weren't around, I wouldn't be here." At his lowest point, he was taking up to 300 pounds worth of cocaine a day and was arrested for possession after visiting his dealer. The last few days before he sought help were spent alone in a hotel room, drinking vodka and taking cocaine around the clock without sleeping or eating.

The ex-American Idol hopeful, pregnant and jailed for violating her probation, got a break when a Tampa judge sent her to drug rehab instead of prison. Fitzgibbons said the treatment will save her life. The suspended University of South Florida student, fighting federal explosives charges, tried to fire Fitzgibbons. He said the attorney accepted $750,000 just to push for a guilty plea. "Pure fantasy," Fitzgibbons said.

The latest on the bizarre break-in. The man who broke into the home of NICOLAS CAGE has been sentenced to six months in rehab, Reuters reports.

He confronted the intruder and escorted the man out of his home without incident. .
Chris Clark committed to Aberdeen
But I wouldn't like to find myself getting stale and letting myself down. I'll carry on as normal and if I'm playing for Aberdeen next week I'll do what I've done throughout my career and put in everything I've got." The league encounter between these two sides only a week previously had ended in a goalless draw, but Aberdeen ensured after only three minutes that would not be the case again. Lee Miller's knock down to Steve Lovell was ferried on to Barry Nicholson and, when his shot was parried by Tim Krul, Jamie Smith swept in the rebound. Falkirk skipper Darren Barr headed in the equaliser barely a minute later from Pedro Moutinho's corner, only for Lovell to touch Miller's pass past Krul to restore Aberdeen's lead in the 10th minute. Falkirk dominated the second half as they sought an equaliser and it finally came in the 73rd minute as midfielder Arnau Riera headed in Carl Finnigan's cross.

And here, looking across acres of richly planted terraces, borders, walled garden, meadow, bog and woodland, framed by a lake, steep hillsides and a fast-flowing river, no-one can be left in any doubt about her appetite for her subject. It is the red-blooded passion of an Italian, for Arabella Lennox-Boyd, née Parisi, was born and brought up in Rome. She says it was the Apennine Mountains and their wildflowers that were her early love. .
