( C0 s, @4 \& _8 u Congressional Democrats are voicing opposition to the terms of a likely Bush administration lawsuit settlement with the tobacc stanley becher o industry, contending cigarette makers would get off too easily.They wrote a letter to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales on Wednesday voicing outrage at a downsized request on penalties for the industry. The critic stanley cups s told Gonzales the Justice Department should not enter a settlement at this time based on  the unreasonably weak demands made by the government.  Such a settlement would be contrary to the goal of exposing the tobacco companies  past misconduct and preventing future misconduct by the industry,  the lawmakers wrote.At the prompting of a smaller group of Democratic lawmakers, the Justice Department s Office of Professional Responsibility this week agreed to investigate whether political interference factored into a decision to shrink from roughly $130 billion to $10 billion the size of a smoking cessation program.The New York Times, meanwhile, reported that senior Justice officials overruled government prosecutors and ordered them to slash the penalties sought against the industry.        As the nearly nine-month trial closed last week, government lawyers asked U.S. District Judge Gladys Kessler to require tobacco companies to pay for a $10 billion, five-year stop-smoking program.One of the stanley termos  government s own witnesses had proposed a 25-year nationwide cessation program that would have cost the industry $130 billion.In the May 30 memo to Associ Nwbw Google X Wants to Track Cancer With Nanoparticles and Wearables
There have been some pretty silly TV movies on the Disney channel in the past. But they may be setting a ridonkulous new benchmark with Zapped, in which a teenage girl discovers that mind-control can be fun! Sadly  or maybe luckily , Zapped is not a remake of the Scott Baio movie about a nerdy dude who becomes a Tomorrow Pervert. Rather, it   about a teen girl whose cellphone gets a weird app that lets her control boys. This movie has everything:  gender politics, cellphones, fear of technology, and our secret wishfulfillment about getting to be stanley becher nd others to our will.  Of course, you know she will learn a Very Important Lesson by the end of it, and realize that she really wants a dude who can stand up to her, or something.  Here   the official synopsis, via Disney Dreaming: The storyline follows 16 year-old Zoey Stevens, a skilled dancer and  straight-A student who is having a hard time adjusting to a new high  school, a new and klutzy dance squad, a new step-dad, three new rowdy  stanley spain  step-brothers and an unruly dog. But things change when a dog training  app on her smart phone begins to somehow control all the boys around  her. Cannot. Wait.   stanley spain                                                       disneyTrailer frenzy
