A buyer's life is hard," says Gordon Seaberry, president of Horny Toad, which has 54 employees. "So we developed the tool so they could get out of the shop more and enjoy the outdoors." The tool box, which is deceptively simple to use, was developed in conjunction with the ZaneRay Group, a 14-person Web development and software firm out of Whitefish, Mont. Essentially, it is a Web browser that launches from a special section in the Horny Toad Web site. There, the company's entire line of apparel and other outdoor goodies is available as a series of hip, small, graphical icons. Buyers can drag and drop icons of the pieces they want to buy into a workspace on the page, creating a real-time record of their purchases. Buyers can preview what will be shipped from the vendor, test out other accessories and -- most importantly -- see what they have spent.
Lieberman Rules Out Running With McCain
Sen. Joe Lieberman, an independent who nearly won the vice presidency as a Democrat in 2000, says there's no way he'll be Republican Sen. John McCain's running mate should McCain become the party's presidential nominee. "No, I'd tell him, 'Thanks, John, I've been there, I've done that. You can find much better,'" Lieberman told The Associated Press during an interview Tuesday in his Senate office. "I'm not seeking anything else." The Connecticut senator said he was unequivocally ruling out sharing the GOP ticket with McCain. Lieberman's endorsement of McCain in December and the campaigning he since has done in states such as New Hampshire, Michigan, South Carolina and Florida have stoked speculation that the Arizona senator might choose Lieberman as his running mate.
Four admit plan to murder soldier
In fact, the court heard, Gassama never came up with the details of an individual target for Khan, and the plan "lay dormant" from July 2006 to November of that year. After Mr Rumfitt opened the case, junior prosecution counsel Duncan Atkinson read a series of agreed facts to the jury. Mr Atkinson, who also detailed the guilty pleas entered by a total of four defendants, said that on July 29 2006, Khan told Gassama "we don't need to go to Afghanistan. We're gonna die anyway." Khan then talked about setting up a drug deal, tying someone up and then getting a "DVD movie camera" out to prepare a statement to be released to television station Al-Jazeera. "It would terrorise British soldiers and Khan said: 'Young Blair is gonna go crazy'," Mr Atkinson said. The jury was told that two other men from Birmingham, Mohammed Irfan, 31, and Hamid Elasmar, 44, have also pleaded guilty to charges related to the cell's activities, but two other defendants are standing trial.
