...There ya go, down-home protesters and country music programmers. You got your red-state, red-meat headline: Dixie Chicks Lead Singer Calls President a Dumb F---. The pop country trio - with Emily Robison (fiddle, etc.) and Marcie Maguire (dobro, etc.) sawing and strumming up a storm behind Maines - already seems to be spending more time on NPR than on CMT. Now the only network to welcome them may be Pacifica...

Houston, who is working on a new album with Clive Davis, is seeking custody of their daughter Bobbi Kristina, 13. Division of the couple's assets will occur later. We just hope...
...have made it harder for parents to challenge school districts' decisions on how much support their kids should receive. Although the latest version of the statute added a requirement for a last-ditch resolution meeting before the start of court hearings, which often cost each side $10,000 a pop, there's also a new provision that makes parents pay a district's legal fees if a court finds that they have filed a "frivolous" or "unreasonable" lawsuit.
