Tracy Morgan in intensive care after car accident

[SOURCE] 30 Rock star Tracy Morgan is in intensive care following a serious crash on the New Jersey Turnpike.

The comedian's limo bus collided with a pair of tractor-trailers north of Trenton around 1 a.m. on Saturday. State police tell Philadelphia's NBC10 that one of the truckers was to blame. Reports say six vehicles were involved, all told.

Morgan was taken to Robert Wood Johnson Medical Center in New Brunswick. Police say one of the passengers from his bus has died; three others were critically injured and one is listed as being in fair condition.

Morgan was scheduled to perform at a casino in Dover, Del., Friday night and was presumably traveling home to Bergen County, N.J.

Koch Brothers Gift $25 Million To United Negro College Fund

[SOURCE] The United Negro College Fund announced a $25 million grant Friday from Koch Industries Inc. and the Charles Koch Foundation — a large donation from the conservative powerhouse Koch name that Democrats have sought to vilify heading into the 2014 midterm elections.

From the donation, $18.5 million will go toward nearly 3,000 merit-based scholarships to African-American students, and $6.5 million will go toward general support for historically black colleges and universities and the UNCF.

African-Americans are a key constituency within the Democratic Party. But Michael Lomax, president and CEO of UNCF, said that since the organization's inception in 1944, it has reached out to people of all backgrounds for support without an "ideological lens" because it is in everyone's interest. The organization has awarded $100 million in scholarships to more than 12,000 students at 900 schools this year alone, but he said the need is so great that the organization turns away nine out of every 10 applicants, or about 100,000 students annually.

He said that in today's politically charged climate, he's prepared to take criticism from those of different political leanings than the Kochs.

"Criticism is a small price for helping young people get the chance to realize their dream of a college education, and if I've got to bear the brunt of someone else's criticism to ensure that we have the resources to help those students, then I can handle it, and I can take the heat," Lomax said.

11-Year-Old Ramarni Wilfred; Has Higher IQ Than Einstein

Could you beat Einstein or Stephen Hawking in a pub quiz? Probably not, but one 11-year-old boy could probably give them a run for their money.

Ramarni Wilfred, of Loom Grove, Romford, England, took a Mensa test and has been told he has a higher IQ level than Steven Hawking, Bill Gates and even Albert Einstein.

He said: “I can’t begin to compare myself to these great men whose hard work clearly proves that they are true geniuses. “Who knows? Perhaps my ‘true genius’ moment will come when I grow up, but for now I am just proud of myself and happy that my mum and sister are proud of me too.”

Why some in the US military are conflicted about Bergdahl's release.

Let me first state that I don't speak for everyone in the US military. This article is based on talks I have had with friends and family that have served or are serving. I myself am prior military having served in the US Army/ NJ national Gaurd. (91-94).

My first reaction upon hearing that Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl had been released can be summed up in two words.

Fuck Bergdahl!

Even though that was my initial thought I like many of my friends were a bit conflicted on his release. I am happy for his family that they get their son back. I can't help but feel happy for Bergdahl's mother and father.

But I still can't get away from the fact that Bergdahl deserted his post. I don't know if he was a traitor. I'm not sure if brave soldiers died looking for him after his disappearance but one thing that everyone seems to be able to agree upon is that he left his post.

When he left his post he left men who were supposed to be his brothers vulnerable and exposed to the enemy. He just left men whose lives were in his hands. Men that could have been sleeping, eating, praying, or just writing home were left unprotected because of Berdahl's actions.

In combat all soldiers have is each other and their faith. Trust is a must and Bergdahl violated that trust.

I believe that he should be brought up on charges under the Uniform Code of Military Justice for desertion. Now there are lesser charges he could face but he has to face charges.

We can not treat a man who most likely deserted his post with kid gloves and definitely not as a hero. Bergdahl is not a hero, he is far from it.

The men and women who serve every day and would never dream of deserting their post are the heroes. The men that went looking for their "brother" even though it was pretty obvious he had deserted are heroes. I salute those men and women.

I can not and I will not salute Bergdahl. If he is cleared after a military trial then my mind will change but until then I have no respect for the man.
