Harlem Boys Choir faces eviction

In grade school and middle school I was involved in the Portland Area Boys Choir. It was a wonderful program that allowed me to grow as a child and be exposed to lots of new ideas while learning the pressues of public performances. I owe the various choir directors in my life a debt of gratitude.

Still, I had a fairly well-off middle class upbringing, so I can only imagine how helpful belonging to the Boys Choir of Harlem has been to its members. Unfortunately the organization had accounting and financial problems that is has never quite recovered from and now faces eviction from its host public school.

I wish them luck.

Million Dollar Homepage - only 1000 pixels left

This is one of those ideas that when you hear about it you think, gee wish I could have thought of that first. Some guy decided to sell 1 million pixels of advertising on his homepage at $1 a pixel to finance his college and ended up with a million dollars and an internet first - the Million Dollar Homepage.

Now only the last 1000 pixels are available and he's holding a special auction for the right to the space right in the center of his page. Act now to own a place in Internet History.
