If you’re looking to get your holiday shopping done early this year, you’re a pretty savvy shopper.  Odds are you’re the type to hit the Black Friday sales and to hunt down the best bargains you can find.  Well, if you’re looking to score an iPad this holiday season, then you’re in luck.  Apple has expanded iPad sales to include retailers Target and Amazon.  Now you can pick up an iPad without having to make the trek to Best Buy (or the Apple Store)!

“Target is very excited to offer the revolutionary iPad to our guests nationwide,” said Target senior VP for merchandising Mark Schindele.  “We are committed to providing our guests with the best products and we think iPad will be at the top of our guest’s holiday shopping lists.”

I just suggest you be careful when leaving the store, since you don’t want to lose a finger to an iPad thief.  Target picking up the iPad makes sense, but I’m a little surprised by Amazon.  Since the iPad is being positioned as a Kindle competitor, you’d think Amazon would want to freeze them out.  Maybe Amazon isn’t worried about the iPad as a Kindle-killer.

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
