Baudel Wins Turing Award Hoffa's Dentures Sighted "Victory Is Ours" claims loser Buxton falls from horse Madonna joins IRG The Boss gets sued UFO found in shoe box Stanley Cup won, but lost 100 Monkeys write novel Beatles sue Stones Stones sue Beatles I read Greek to an Alien 9 out of 10 dogs don't bark Wierd Al found guilty Michael Jackson Insane HeadLinesThis is a test Kurtenbach Wins Grand Prix!Noted researcher and equistrian, Bill Buxton, shattered his ankle while riding in preparation for the Olympic trials. Buxton fell from his horse incurring the crippling injury. "I blame it on bad interface design", says the esteemed researcher. "The way we control horses nowadays is antiquaited. Reins and spurs may have been acceptable 200 years ago, but today we can do better. I am proposing a joy stick control, embedded in the saddle where historically the saddle horn has been placed. This fits my riding style better anyway". "The design will exploit everyday riding skills (ERS)", claims Buxton. "The joystick will work just like neck reining, so this should give experienced riders a leg up right from the start". Buxton has fallen from other modes of transportation in the past. "I've heard he's laid down a few motorcycles in his day and I believe he had a nasty fall on some ice while skating when he was young" recounts long time student and nobel prize winner, Gordon Kurtenbach. "I suppose the knock in the head he took on the ice didn't really affect him till now" added Mr. Kurtenbach. The injury has changed Buxton's style considerably. "Its the most I've ever seen him as my supervisor in my entire life" comments Gary "rock hard" Hardock, one of Buxton's most laid back graduate students. "As soon as we [Buxton's students] heard he couldn't run, we immediately scheduled meetings at his house. Bill had no way out. He had to see us" describes Mr. Hardock. "Of course we were concerned about his health but mainly we were concerned that he could still make a signature. Otherwise than that, I think most of his students can't even remember which ankle he busted". "When I first heard the news I thought it was the horse who had a broken ankle so I suggested it should be put down. I guess that created an few anxious moments for Bill at hospital when the head surgeon produced a revolver" recalls Mr, Kurtenbach. "Bill's been pissed about that for a Kurtenbach Wins Grand Prix!They said he was fast and they weren't kidding! Gord "way too fast" Kurtenbach won an unprecedented 90th Grand Prix victory using the city streets of Monte Carlo as a backdrop for his mastery. Experts are puzzled as how to explain his dominance. "He fast, he mean, he a'wippin and a whomping when he gets dat wheel in his hands" claims Kurtenbach's ace mechanic and psychologist Leroy "the electric" Lesiro. "One time he got a second in a race and he up and killed two fans and punched the trophy girl right in the face. Unfortunately for "too fast" [Kurtenbach] she knew kung foo or something and she let him have a 50 yarder to the crotch area. After that, he didn't mind being bent over in that tiny cockpit for 2-3 hours and he got wicked fast then". Kurtenbach shows brilliant innovation in his driving style that leaves the competition scrambling to keep up. "I don't waste any time at the start" reported Kurtenbach in an interview in People magazine. "The moment they drop the flag I step on the gas, no waiting around. As a matter of fact, one time my car was in the pits with 3 mechanics under it when the start flag dropped. Well I couldn't help myself I just jumped into the car and started driving. I guess that when I got my reputation for being hard to work with. I don't know. Tread marks aren't that hard to remove" If anything, the experts claim Kurtenbach is even faster on the track during the race. "I don't waste time signalling for the corners like they tell you in driving school. Plus I never shoulder check, which can be real handy if somebody is trying to pass you. Otherwise than that I don't have any secrets, except maybe I do play the radio very very loud or sometimes pull off the road and have a little snooze if I get sleepy but no more than 5 minutes, then I am back in the race, running on the edge again" explain Kurtenbach. Kurtenbach will be running the Brazillian Grand Prix next month. Due to doctor's orders, unlike last year's race he will not be wearing a sombrero through out the race. on scrollUpChapter sx, sy, ex, ey, mx, my, max, may put the scroll of card field "Chapter" into scrollLoc put may - my into offset add offset to scrollLoc set the scroll of card field "Chapter" to scrollLoc end scrollUpChapter on scrollDownChapter sx, sy, ex, ey, mx, my, max, may put the scroll of card field "Chapter" into scrollLoc put may - my into offset subtract offset from scrollLoc set the scroll of card field "Chapter" to scrollLoc end scrollDownChapter on scrollUpHeadline sx, sy, ex, ey, mx, my, max, may put the scroll of card field "Headline" into scrollLoc put may - my into offset add offset to scrollLoc set the scroll of card field "Headline" to scrollLoc end scrollUpHeadline on scrollDownHeadline sx, sy, ex, ey, mx, my, max, may put the scroll of card field "Headline" into scrollLoc put may - my into offset subtract offset from scrollLoc set the scroll of card field "Headline" to scrollLoc end scrollDownHeadline function getLineNo y put y - top of card field "Headline" into i add the scroll of card field "Headline" to i divide i by textHeight of card field "Headline" put trunc (i) into i add 1 to i return i end getLineNo on Edit sx, sy, ex, ey, mx, my, max, may put getLineNo ((sy + ey)/2) into l put line l of card field "Headline" into title set the scroll of card field "Chapter" to 0 put card field title of card "ArticleStore" into card field "Chapter" put title into card field "ArticleTitle" end Edit on TagRelated title, lineNo Beep 1 put "Tagging of related articles not implemented yet" end TagRelated on Tag sx, sy, ex, ey, mx, my, max, may put getLineNo ((sy + ey)/2) into l if Tagged(l) then UnHilite l else Hilite l end Tag on Print Beep 1 put "Print not implemented yet" end Print function Tagged lineNo get textStyle of line lineNo of card field "Headline" if it is plain then return false else return true end Tagged on Hilite lineNo set textStyle of line lineNo of card field "Headline" to underline end Hilite on UnHilite lineNo set textStyle of line lineNo of card field "Headline" to plain -- bug fix: set textStyle to plain doesn't update the screen put line lineNo of card field "Headline" into buf put "" into line lineNo of o put buf into line lineNo of card field "Headline" end UnHilite on HiliteInvert o, lineNo set lockText of o to false multiply lineNo by textHeight of o put top of o + lineNo into sy put left of o into sx put right of o into ex add 2 to sx subtract 2 from ex click at sx,sy click at ex,sy with shiftKey set lockText of o to true end HiliteInvert p l3oUNl0<>FREEFree Object TagRelated on Tag sx, sy, ex, ey, mx, my, max, may put getLineNo ((sy + ey)/2) into l if Tagged(l) then UnHilite l else Hilite l end Tag on Print Beep 1 put "Print not implemented yet" end Print function Tagged lineNo get textStyle of line lineNo of card field "Headline" if it is plain then return false else return true end Tagged on Hilite lineNo set textStyle of line lineNo of card field "Headline" to underline end Hilite on UnHilite lineNo set textStyle of line lineNo of card field "Headline" to plain -- bug fix: set textStyle to plain doesn't update the screen put line lineNo of card field "Headline" into buf put "" into line lineNo of o put buf into line lineNo of card field "Headline" end UnHilite on HiliteInvert o, lineNo set lockText of o to false multiply lineNo by textHeight of o put top of o + lineNo into sy put left of o into sx put right of o into ex add 2 to sx subtract 2 from ex click at sx,sy click at ex,sy with shiftKey set lockText of o to true end HiliteInvert |@@:`FREEFree Object :@FREEFree Object nd HiliteInvert t subtra:FREEFree Object                 liteInvert vert  ( Jb RLN^Nu$                                                                        DNu  dPatternsbC h@@SZ ;\LX#F7oXX9cd*+_?w(45f|}N+cvw  9 : u  M   D  ; p3o#N#0<N#x0<N#x0< N#x0<N#xN#3#N#0<N#xN#0<N#x3#8N#\N#lJ9#g N# Nu3#N#0<&N#x0<&N#x0<N#x0<*N#x0<0N#x0<4N#x0<N#x0<8N#x0<sh`0      BKGD ggPYenownPYPYenownPY.FREEFree Object s stuff, she just went crazy. She was laughing so much I thought she was going to break her chain link halter top. Of course Gord took it in stride, showing application of marking menus for selecting fashion accessories." Madonna has proposed a set of five experiments which address basic research issues concerning input in human computer interaction. The five experiments are quite controversal with old time IRGers. "We are used to this crap" declares Gord Kurtenbach when asked about the five experiments. "Bill Buxton proposed the same type of thing a couple of years ago. Man, we were laughing and laughing, but now it seems the only experiments that every produce significant results are the onces proposed by Bill. I figure this Madonna chick will do the same number on us. I mean, on the surface her stuff looks just as stupid as Bill's proposal, but I'm sure she'll be knocking us out with bar graphs and t-test in no time flat". The controversy eminates from ethics of some of Madonnas experiments. "When I read the the proposal I thought it was a script for a heavy metal video or something" describes Gord Kurtenbach. "There's one experiment that calls for Fitts law experiments where two naked men are chained to a Macintosh. Plus there's some weird stuff with a German shephard. I told Madonna about the experimental design problems if she participated in the experiment but she laughed it off, saying "Gord don't be such a prude". I must admit I am looking forward to some of the pilot studies" Scheduling has been a problem for Madonna. The classic 9am monday morning input group meetings are a bit difficult to fit into her tight touring schedule and has lead to a few humorous events. "I was first to the meeting, which is a miracle in itself" says Gary Hardock the creator of MATE, who is still involved in trademark litegation with the continent of Australia. "Madonna showed up looking even more sleepy that Gord [Mr. Kurtenbach] does. I thought "oh my god she's wearing normal clothes", suddenly she jumps up an says "oh my god, I'm still in my pyjamas!". I guess that makes sense because I always thought she wore her underwear in public normally". Elvis Found Alive! Kurtenbach Wins Grand Prix!

Lawyers for the coalition claim that Springsteen's success has been on the back of the losers and down and out of america. The coalition is asking for five million in compensation and a public apology from "the boss". "Everytime I here one of those 'down on luck, living in a little crappy town, born to lose' songs of the boss's my blood boils" commented down and outer Robert "little bugger" Moroz. "I hear that song and first I start thinking, wow I feel really sorry for the unlucky guy in the song, then I think, hey that guy sounds an aweful lot like me, then I say, hey wait a minute, what give the boss the right to make songs up about me?" Lawyers for the coalition claim that many of the bosses songs are based on the lives of losers and these losers were not consulted before the songs were published. The coalition is asking for past and future royalties. "Down by the river? Sh--, I've been down by that f--- river a helluva lot more times than that candy a-- Springsteen." declared coalition spokesperson Billy "too drunk" Dwezil. "Drinking? Sh--, what does that guy do? Maybe have a cocktail? Well, I'll tell ya, I've drank a tanker of booze in my day and the label wasn't Johnny Walker most times. As a matter of fact, it was mainly Lysol. I figure my inside may be rotten but there's a lot less germs. It don't matter spit. We gonna sue his a-- and thats all there is to it" Lawyers for Mr. Springsteen comment that they are on safe legal ground. "Being a loser isn't an exclusive right. Our client [Mr. Springsteen] has just as much right as anyone to talk about the down and out and losers of america" explained Ted Leach, Springsteen's lawyer and yachting partner. Emotions are running high in the press as the coalition continues to analyze the lyrics of Springsteen's songs. "I be kicking his butt and thats all there is to it" commented Charles "chipper" Twinther. "The boss got some hits, but on our backs, so now he's gonna pay. No more to say" Legal experts report that the success of this law suit could have impact on other musicians and fields of art. "If this suit comes through, kiss the country music scene bye-bye" commented Larry Lieable, professor of Law at University of Nobutt North Dakota. "Every farmer, cowboy and trucker is going to be getting a lawyer and sueing every country western singer that has never stepped on a piece of sh-- in their life or jack knifed an eightteen wheeler".
