Let’s get to the news… (Play News Music – Clip 03)

VANCOUVER (Reuters) – Canada's largest airline has learned it sometimes has to take a back seat to the country's biggest sporting passion, ice hockey, the head of Air Canada said on Tuesday.
The airline was forced to delay a flight from Vancouver during the 2010 Winter Olympic Games because passengers watching the end of gold medal final on airport televisions ignored repeated calls to board.
"We incurred a flight delay for a reason Air Canada had not yet encountered in over 72 years of existence," chief executive Calin Rovinescu told a business gathering.
The Canadian fans were rewarded for their delay, as the nail-biting end to the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics saw Canada beat arch-rival United States 3-2 in overtime.

AMSTERDAM (Reuters) – A union representing Dutch nurses will launch a national campaign Friday against demands for sexual services by patients who claim it should be part of their standard care.
The union, NU'91, is calling the campaign "I Draw The Line Here," with an advert that features a young woman covering her face with crossed hands.
The union said in a statement Thursday that the campaign follows a complaint it had received in the last week from a 24-year-old woman who said a 42-year-old disabled man asked her to provide sexual services as part of his care at home.
The young woman witnessed some of the man's other nurses offering him sexual gratification, the union said. When she refused to do the same, he tried to dismiss her on the grounds that she was unfit to provide care.
"This type of action is not part of the job responsibilities of carers and nurses," NU'91 said.
The case has been reported to police, the union added.


WELLINGTON (Reuters) – A New Zealand man is recovering from injuries after being run over by his wife -- twice, local media reported on Friday.
Sandy Telford ran over her husband, Terry, as she backed down the driveway of their rural property in the Hawke's Bay region, 350 kilometers (220 miles) north-east of Wellington, the Dominion Post newspaperreported.
Not realizing what she had done, Telford then drove her car forward, running over him again.
Police said the woman was distraught and too upset to speak to them.
"We are treating it as an accident," a police spokesman told the newspaper.
Ambulance authorities said the husband suffered moderate head, chest and back injuries, but was "conscious and talking" after the incident.

Magnificent 7: NFL Rules to change: (Clip 7)

1. You can’t advance a muff.
2. The Tuck Rule
3. You can’t return a blocked extra point for two points
4. You need 2 feet in bounds for it to be a catch.
5. Overtime – First score wins. (Don’t go to college style. Either make it a full 10 or 15 minutes, make it where you have to score 6, or both teams get a possession.)
6. You only get 2 challenges unless you get them both right
7. Pass interference is a spot foul

 


Who CAN we make fun of now?
-The rural poor – AKA Rednecks or Yokels. (Clip 26 – Cletus)
-Cultures that never actually existed – (Clip 20 – Perfect Strangers – Look a Toaster!) Merpeople, Fake Eastern European cultures such as Balki Bartakomous from Mypos or Latka Gravis from Taxi.
-Cultures that no longer exist –Feel free to make fun of Carthaginians or Huns.
-Rich People – Mr. Burns is the perfect example. It gets even worse if the person who is rich becomes politically active and starts advocating positions they don’t seem to follow themselves…Al Gore…It doesn’t help if the rich people start making outrageous claims like that they created the internet. Dorothy Parker said "If you want to know what God thinks of money, look at the people he gave it to."
-White People – In general it’s fine to make fun of white people. No one seems to really care. Even better, It is always fun if the White people have a racial identity crisis. (27 – White Jokes) (28 – White Disclaimer)
-Stupid people
-Amish people – They’ll never know! Plus, have you SEEN their clothes?
-Fake Radio Personalities – If you’re on the BlogTalk radio, I think you’re probably fair game.
