Hannah Montana concert targeted
A sixteen year old male was taken into police custody after planning to hijack and airplane and have it crash into the Louisiana concert hall where Hannah Montana (Miley Cyrus) was giving a concert that night. He wanted to commit suicide when the plane crashed. He had a ticket to Louisiana, so he apparently was headed that way.
He was found to have rope, handcuffs, and some duct tape on his person. All of these presumably to overcome the flight staff. The flight never was in any danger, however. He decided not to go through with his plan. He told the FBI everything after he was caught. The boy is being held and faces several charges including terrorism. Also at his house was a structure resembling the cockpit of a plane.
They have not been able to speak to the airlines or the FBI for more information. This is not something you want to get out said one of the policeman. It is bad for the airline business and gives the public a false sense of panic. They also declined to comment on anything else because the child is a minor. His parents hadn’t been notified yet. They didn’t think he would have succeeded, it was the thought of the idea he had.

The 2008 Super Bowl is down to the New England Patriots and the New York Giants. This is not the only competition that exists in this anticipated sporting event. With the Super Bowl right around the corner, it is no surprise that the advertisers have come out of the woodwork to get their fair share of exposure from this event. Three months ago, there was only ten percent of the advertising available for purchase. In 2006, the amount of a thirty second spot cost the prospective client 2.6 million dollars. This year, the amount of advertising has increased to 2.7 million but reached over ninety million viewers. In 2005, the amount for a thirty second advertising spot was 2.5 million. The only drawback to advertising with this event is the fact that its reach does not extent to other countries and is focused on the American market. For anyone interested in finding that perfect place on the list of those taking advantage of the offer, the FOX Network is offering a spot on MYSpace.com. Those who are in the lineup for the first time are Victoria Secret and Tide. It is speculated that the infamous GoDaddy.com commercials that dominated the 2006 Super Bowl commercial spectacular, will be keeping it quiet this year. With all these companies competing to be on top, who is going to notice the football?
