A Missouri resident is considering legal action after he came home recently to find that the city had torn down his home. Over the following days, the city hauled away the valuable red bricks from the rubble of his home.

It's no surprise that the city in question here is East St. Louis, already widely regarded as the scummiest hellhole in America, according to Time Magazine's Scummiest Hellhole in America annual list. The city is poor, but I had no idea that they were this poor.

The man's name is Lewis Hill, and he could really use a good lawyer. I realize few lawyers would actually reside in East St. Louis, but if there are any in the area I'm sure Mr. Hill would appreciate your help.

The new Apple iPhone isn't making everyone happy. Or maybe it is. You see, Apple and Cisco were on the verge of a deal which would have had Cisco handing over their iPhone trademark. Then, for reasons that cannot be explained, Steve Jobs made an announcement introducing Apple's new product.

The Jobs announcement meant one thing for Cisco, or so I believe: we can make much more money off of this name. With the Apple iPhone name public, but the iPhone name not secure with Apple, it only made sense that Cisco would increase their price for the name. Now they are just suing Apple, forcing the company to either settle for big bucks or change the name that millions of people are expecting their new cell phone/pda/iPod device to be called. Or they could hire some big-name lawyers and take their chances in court, but then they'd risk having to pay a huge judgment.
