This may shock you if you’re a GM car owner (as I am) . The company claims that you don’t own your car.. instead, you’re just renting it, leasing it.. borrowing.
The argument comes down to whether people can crack the code of their car computer and repair things themselves…
GM says they don’t have the right to. The copyright claim is undoubtedly going to to through a legal process. If GM wins, your purchase of your car will simply be a licensing agreement. A whole new world..

The world is an amazing place that can make lemons into lemonade..
Why you should always find at least three sources for every online rumor you hear.. TMZ had a scoop about a standout football player in Harrisburg Pa. They reported that Adrian Robinson was shot and killed in his hometown. The only trouble was that he was not. He died after a suicide, a painful and private ordeal for the family.. TMZ blamed “Harrisberg police” … the “Harrisburg” police denied the TMZ accusation.. The world of tabloids, where anyone can claim an exclusive no matter how right or wrong it is..
Southern California, heavily hit by the epic drought of the 21st century, is saying goodbye to their rollup lawns..
People have mixed emotions as they watch their amazingly green grass get rolled up and taken away.. A new turf in town as the drought drowns the state of California..

THE ROSWELL SLIDES UPDATE FROM WHITLEY STRIEBER
The ROSWELL slides updated: Whitley Strieber’s DREAMLAND is on the case of the strange looking photos that were presented at a public conference in Mexico days ago.
Those pictures has caused lots of debate–are they real?
Are they frauds? Strieber reports that Linda Moulten Howe is attempting to determine where the actual bodies are and has uncovered a better photograph of the being, or whatever it may be..
THE PRICE OF FAME AND MISFORTUNE: 5 AND COUNTING
When true ‘reality’ rears its ugly head..
Reality TV ‘star’ Josh Duggar has been forced into a very uncomfortable position.. reports surfaced only days ago that the 19 KIDS AND COUNTING star–a man who decries birth control and thinks kids should follow strict rules in a house–that he molested someone 12 years ago.
Duggar has now resigned from the FAMILY RESEARCH COUNCIL (bet they are proud to have hosted his name on their paperwork for a while) …
The network isn’t commenting yet, even though Duggar on Facebook is and his parents are in media. The claim: He molested five girls, including family…
The price of fame is often misfortune.
19 times over, at times..
And counting.
THE SERIOUS LIGHTS ON CERES
NASA captures a new photo of those amazing lights on CERES..
The closer we get the more amazing they look.. and the more mysterious I find them.
The current thought is that they are ice, but I am still contemplating the chances they are amazing little cities on the small dot between Mars and Jupiter..
At this point, scientists and experts have no possible clue as to what the bright lights on our friend in the sky are..
The entire thing is amazing, utterly amazing.
Maybe the final result will be dull as an old butterknife, but the run up to whatever scientific discovery yet to be made on Ceres is a bright spot of our current space world..
The POLTERGEIST remake is released today.. For better or worse..
And while some horror fans may be enthusiastic about the prospects of the classic film, modernized, being in theaters, others are decrying a lack of imagination, and over abundant use of CGI, and a sloppy uninspired mess of a movie..
You can find the reviews yourself–the review roundup on ROTTEN TOMATOES isn’t pretty, with the film scoring less than half positive press with writers..
Horror site BLOODY DISGUSTING checked in with its own review of the movie, with the site lamenting the overuse of special effects, the acting that just doesn’t seem to be convincing, and a climax of the movie suffering from what Kalyn Corrigan called fake-looking spirits..
The movie, it can be said, doesn’t prove itself when compared to the classic from the early 1980s.. I frankly still can’t understand why this movie was picked from the litter of horror films as the target for a re-do.
There was almost no need, perhaps less of a need than even Rob Zombie’s messups of the HALLOWEEN films. POLTERGEIST, circa 1982, is a movie about family, love, spirits, death, mystery, and illusion.
The modern fare seems more bent on cheap scares and lousy special effects that don’t do anything but give a jump or two in a movie theater. Certainly no long-lasting nostalgia will be created by this remake..
Poorly done, from the reviews I have read, and perhaps something not at all worth it in theaters..
Omaha police officer killed–she was just HOURS away from maternity leave.. Officer Kerrie Orozco, 29, was scheduled to go on maternity leave Thursday to take care of her daughter, Olivia Ruth, born premature in February, according to authorities. Orozco was a 7-year veteran of the department and had worked in the North Gang Suppression Squad since 2012…
Omaha Police Chief Todd Schmanderer said Orozco and other officers were in pursuit of 26-year-old Marcus D. Wheeler when Wheeler began shooting at police.
Police returned gunfire, hitting Wheeler..
