Courier Staff Report

The number of visitors to the James Logan Courier's school news website spiked in December, rising to about 3,000 visitors-per-day, putting the publication on a pace to attract one million readers per year.

The site drew an average of 2,999 visitors daily during December, up from 1,257 per day during November, which was a record for the "newspaper" at the time.

"If we just maintain that rate for the next twelve months, we'll have more than one million visitors," said Courier Advisor Patrick Hannigan. "Since we've had a nearly unbroken record of month-to-month readership increases since we shifted to daily publication 21 months ago, it's likely that we'll have more than a million visitors."

The Newport Beach band named Saosin is one of the fastest growing headliners in alternative rock, but don't think for a minute that they're just another high school band that just got lucky. A Scream-o band since birth, they have played for the Vans Warped Tour, performed numerous sold out concerts packed with screaming fans, and have opened for some of the biggest bands in rock today.

While looking at my Yahoo! Home page, a news headline caught my eye. “Golf Channel anchor says young golfers should 'lynch Tiger Woods'”. What? Needing to know more, I clicked on the link and avidly read the entire story. By the end, I was shocked, outraged and humiliated. How can such overt acts of racism be continuing even now, in 2008?


From wikipedia:
Jeremiah Sullivan Black (January 10, 1810 – August 19, 1883) was an American statesman and lawyer. He was the father of writer Chauncey Black.

He was largely self-educated, and before he was of age was admitted to the Pennsylvania bar. He gradually became one of the leading American lawyers, and from 1851 to 1857 was a member of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, serving as Chief Justice from 1851 to 1854.
