About 9:15 p.m. firefighters were on the move again to 10A Bradford Street where flames were lapping up the side of a cottage dangerously close to a larger house. Another aggressive attack quickly doused the flames. (Story and photos by Tim Caldwell). Editors note: As the situation in Provincetown appears, unfortunately, to be escalating I want to make one point clear. Cape Wide News is working very closely with local authorities to INFORM not alarm the public. An informed and vigilant public may be the town's best chance of catching this perpetrator before someone gets hurt or worse-TC. Correction: Staph infection in Sandwich is not MRSASANDWICH - Cape Wide News has learned a male student at a Sandwich school has come down with a staph infection. However, Interim Principal Jeffrey Dees at the Oak Ridge School here on Quaker Meetinghouse Road told WQRC News it was not the MRSA "superbug" that has been making national news lately.

Global Warming Evangelism: Give Up Carbon For Lent!
It asks you about your heating, water use and electrical gadgets as well as travel and food. My total annual emissions were a weighty 21.06 tons, nearly double the national average. I rang the Carbon Gym in a panic. The biggest area you need to cut back on is air flights, said information officer, Joel Rawson. I adopted a hangdog expression and explained that they were all for work: ironically two were on climate change stories. That means you can exclude them from your calculations, he said. This is just about your private journeys. Ah. So, if all of my airplane travel is related to work, it doesn't count? I can travel the world, expelling as much carbon dioxide as I want, as long as it's part of my job? Hmmm. So, let me get this straight: expelling too much carbon dioxide is a sin because it's harming poor people.
Dramatic 'Heavy Hitter' ads now considered OK
Members of a local Boy Scout troop appear in an advertisement for Las Vegas lawyer Glen Lerner that ran during the Super Bowl. The boy on the left portrays a young Lerner, supposedly honing his "Heavy Hitter" skills to defend a boy whose nose was bloodied by a bully.

He’s a Uniter, Decider, and Now, Interpreter
We are certainly headed into a new era of totalatarianism and it appears many of the Democrats are assisting the movement. Why has Impeachment been ignored by so many of our Congressmen? Is it because their pockets are being lined with silver? Unless we come up with candidates that are looking out for the interest of their constituants, corporate greed will continue and continue to grow! At least (4) four different Representatives have offered Impeachment initiatives, so………….. I don't have all the knowledge it takes for our political system, but I do know when I'm getting screwed. .
Can motorsport ever be eco-friendly?
They have adapted two Honda Hybrid cars (vehicles that combine electric and petrol power, and are thus more environmentally friendly) for use in the competitive world of rally driving. This is the first time hybrid cars have been used in a rally competition, and these vehicles – while admittedly not being the most streamlined or snazzy of rides – are optimised to compete with conventional rally cars. In doing so, they output exceptionally low emissions of CO2 and toxins, and give a level of fuel efficiency never seen before in the sport. All of which means that if you care to don one of the white helmets that Andrews and Meeson wear to career around Millbrook's many twists and turns, it is hard initially to notice the difference between their vehicle and a normal rally car.
Time to grow up about driving
The phone gets dialed, the cigarette lit and the coffee mug is put back into play. Three items, two hands not on the steering wheel at the same time and someone who should know better zooming off to start their day and woe-be-unto anyone who might be in their way. The stray jogger. The delivery guy. The police officer. These people do seem to have the ability to pound their horn if you get in the way. Or flip someone off. It has been suggested that there be no-phone zones around schools. Folks, do we really need a law to tell us how to behave responsibly? Are we really that rude and self-absorbed that we can't gets the kids to school without a phone conversation? If a law is enacted I'd suggest that anyone breaking it be hit with two penalties. One, their phone is immediately smashed with a hammer.
Hip-Hop Rumors: Jay-Z Off To Apple? New G-Unit MCs? Kanye Is BACK!
Instead, he brought out The Game and Will.I.Am, who was on crutches for some reason. (Proably dancing too hard) How crazy is it that the BEP front man caught a major brick this year, while Fergie went on to do superlative things? Ah, who cares. I like Willie. Anyway, I wonder if Nas is going to drop next month still. Somehow, I don't see it happening. I want to get a new Nas CD though. He's the man... the N-Word Man.
