Actor Randy Quaid (aka General George S. Merlin, “Bug Buster”) and his wife, Evi… were in Canada seeking political asylum over their stated fears they would be “whacked” if they returned to Hollywood… they fled to Canada to escape the so-called “star whackers” – a cult that is bugging their phones and hacking their computers.
“They’re absolute businessmen. It’s the mafia; it’s organized crime,” said Mrs. Quaid… The couple has said this “mafia” is behind eight celebrity, including Heath Ledger, deaths in the last 5 years. (more) (trailer)

Apparently, Larry Ellison recently accused HP’s new CEO, Leo Apotheker, of overseeing an industrial espionage scheme centering on the repeated theft of massive amounts of Oracle’s software. It is alleged that a major portion of this theft occurred while Mr. Apotheker was CEO of SAP.
My Ray Lane, HP’s Chairman stated, ” If HP keeps Leo Apotheker far from HP headquarters we cannot subpoena him to testify at a trial. I don’t think Ray Lane wants to risk Leo Apotheker testifying under oath as to why he allowed the theft of Oracle property to continue for 8 months after he was made sole CEO of SAP”.
In 2010, Larry Ellison was listed as the sixth richest person in the world, with a personal wealth of $27 billion. We think he may have just cause to protect his intellectual property.
The matter is beng presented in court today. We’ll keep you posted on any developments.

Jerry Bever, general manager for KTVA, said in a statement that a call to Miller spokesman Randy DeSoto to discuss the candidate’s planned appearance on a newscast wasn’t disconnected after the conversation ended. The call took place during a KTVA staff meeting to plan coverage of that evening’s Miller rally in downtown Anchorage. (more)

Test your car…
If you own a late model General Motors car with OnStar, try this test. Tune your radio to 770 AM, turn up the volume and tap on the OnStar microphone near the rear view mirror. Do you hear yourself coming through the radio? No? Maybe they only bugged my car. ~Kevin
