Stranded air travelers overrun ticket counters, destroy equipment at ...
Angry passengers overran ticket counters, breaking computers and wrestling with airport security personnel late Saturday after two days of flight delays and cancellations involving Aerolineas Argentinas affected thousands of travellers. Ticketing workers walked out Saturday afternoon after passengers assaulted a worker at a check-in desk at Ezeiza International Airport, said Maria de los Angeles Aguer, a spokeswoman for the Association of Aeronautical Personnel. On Sunday, flights resumed and police patrolled the corridors as passengers, many of whom have waited for days for flights, slept on floors. Aerolineas Argentinas attributed delays to a labor conflict. But union officials said the disruptions were caused by overbooked flights. .

Tesco puts broadband in trolley
Tesco is to become a provider of broadband Internet access, playing on a down-to-earth approach, customer loyalty and its ability to cross-sell other branded services. The retailer is billing Tesco Broadband as both the "cheapest full 512K (sic) speed, unlimited service on offer in the UK from any major service provider" and "designed by children so adults can understand it". It was developed using a panel of parents and their children who attend Ripple Infant and Junior School in Barking, Essex. The company's communications partner in Tesco Broadband is NTL. A spokeswoman said: "In a family, people use broadband in different ways. It's the kids who typically deal with bigger files, with things like games and video, but with a capped service parents are worrying all the time." The service costs �19.97 per month, compared to around �25 for similar offerings from the likes of AOL, BT and Tiscali -- though Tesco is aware this is a market changing fast and is being careful about claiming to be the cheapest anywhere.
Wii Won't Budge on Pricing
While its competitors shuffle their pricing strategies to gain market share and push sales for the upcoming holiday season, Nintendo will stand firm at its $250 price point on the hot-selling Wii gaming console.

Turning on the lights
Bennett Valley is also out, numbered among the 58,000 Sonoma County homes and businesses that lost power from downed lines.
Over the span of seven days beginning
Jan. 4, an estimated 866 separate outages affected 106,810 residents across the North Coast.
Residents said there was little surprise that winds hitting 70 mph would cause outages. But as the cold dark hours turned into cold dark days last week, criticism -- and questions -- mounted.
Why did power remain out for so many for so long?
Why were PG&E's restoration estimates off by days?
Who is setting the priority to restore power and what is the criteria for who goes first?
"It's so dynamic that we have to be flexible enough to respond to the highest priority," said Anthony Mar, superintendent of maintenance and construction for PG&E's North Coast Division and the man at the center of the storm.
Southwest Missouri mayor charged in Internet child sex sting
The problem is we don't have near enough Jim Murrays and we have way too many children on computers," Dobbs said. Murray was Diamond's chief of police from 1995 to 2000, when he retired. After getting a home computer around 2000, he discovered chat rooms and was angered when he was offered pictures of young girls. From there, he developed an interest in Internet sting operations. "It irritated me that anybody would find satisfaction in looking at pictures of little girls unless they were their children or grandchildren," Murray told The Joplin Globe in a 2006 interview. He remains on the Diamond force as a detective in charge of Internet investigations. It is just the latest career change for Murray, who taught elementary school for 27 years before moving into law enforcement in the 1990s.
