Is she spinning clockwise, or counter-clockwise?

If clockwise, then you use more of the right side of the brain and vice versa.

Most of us would see the dancer turning anti-clockwise though you can try to focus and change the direction; see if you can do it.

Bigot Principle Quits Rather Than Allow Gay-Straight Alliance

In a clear throwback to the bad ol’ days of segregation, a high school principle quit his job rather than allow the formation of a gay-straight alliance at his school. Sometimes I shake my head at the country we live in, I really do.

Did I Speak Too Soon?

As you know, every time I have moved since 1995, a celebrity of some sort has died either on the day of the move, or within a few days. The day before I moved last weekend, Senator Ted Kennedy was hospitalized after a seizure. I moved, and thought celebrities might be spared, and then came this:

Doctors say Sen. Edward Kennedy has a brain tumor

BOSTON – A cancerous brain tumor caused the seizure Sen. Edward M. Kennedy suffered over the weekend, doctors said Tuesday in a grim diagnosis for one of American politics’ most enduring figures.

Doctors for the Massachusetts Democrat say tests conducted after Kennedy suffered a seizure this weekend show a tumor in his left parietal lobe. Preliminary results from a biopsy of the brain identified the cause of the seizure as a malignant glioma.

His treatment will be decided after more tests but the usual course includes combinations of radiation and chemotherapy.

“I’m really sad,” former Sen. Bob Kerrey, D-Neb., said when told in a Senate hallway about Kennedy’s condition. “He’s the one politician who brings tears to my eyes when he speaks.”

The 76-year-old senator has been hospitalized in Boston since Saturday, when he was airlifted from Cape Cod after a seizure at his home.
