Runner-Up: Wynonna
The Tennessean, TN -
I vote for Wynonna Judd because she is a sincere and caring person. After all her publicity of her private life, she keeps pressing on with the more important issues of the world. She always talks about putting yourself first, but Wynonna doesn't. She is not a selfish person. She thinks of helping others first, than herself. She is not self-centered. She is my She-ro! I think she deserves the recognition of 2006 Tennessean of the Year.

p2pnet's final days?
p2pnet.net, Canada -
A kind of an independent parallel communications portal has already developed. And it's becoming mainstream. People tend to think of the music/movie file sharing thing as separate from 'important' world events. However, sooner or later, what's happening with in this arena will also happen in other areas, and let's not forget the studios and media outlets the entertainment industry owns, which is most of them, have tremendous influence over what people think and do around the world. The establishment print and electronic media depend almost wholly on corporate advertising and the goodwill of governments and their many and various agencies to survive, which means the news and information they carry is often very badly skewed. In the parallel universe, blogs and sites such as p2pnet carry the news and I think eventually, there'll be a huge Blog-cum-Web Page Directory. It'll have information categories people will use to find out what's happening, where to find services and products, and so on. And it won't be another kind of search engine.

A High Price To Pay
USCHO, MN -
"We have a picture in our dressing room of Joe Thornton from last season," said Ohio State coach John Markell, an extremely skilled forward during his NCAA and professional career. "He led the NHL in scoring, and he uses a shaft and wood blade. Ryan Smith of Edmonton, another great player, also uses the two-piece stick. I'd rather have something that allows me to handle the puck better than get off the big bomb. I mean really, how many chances to you get to get that big shot off anyway?"

More lessons from the Bermuda front
Cayman Net News, Cayman Islands -
The system of exemptions and waivers gives a significant hiring and staffing advantage to the largest international companies owned by foreigners, and hurts smaller local companies owned by Bermudians - a point that few have considered here but is more than likely to happen. The offshore sector will probably have less trouble securing exemptions for their experts, but the local service station, operator or small contractor may well struggle to get this same privilege for the head mechanic or plumber.

Contract With America: The Betrayal Begins
Men's News Daily, CA -
19. Ibid. In a concurring opinion, Justice Meyer noted that separation of powers was designed to implement a fundamental insight: Concentration of power in the hands of a single branch is a threat to liberty. The Federalist states the axiom in these explicit terms: “The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands . . . may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.” (The Federalist, No. 47) So convinced were the Framers that liberty of the person inheres in structure that at first they did not consider a Bill of Rights necessary. (The Federalist, No. 84, pp. 513, 515; G. Wood, The Creation of the American Republic 1776-1787, pp. 536-543, 1969). It was at Madison’s insistence that the First Congress enacted the Bill of Rights. (R. Goldwin, “From Parchment to Power,” pp. 75-153, 1997). It would be a grave mistake, however, to think a Bill of Rights in Madison’s scheme then or in sound constitutional theory now renders separation of powers of lesser importance. (See Amar, “The Bill of Rights as a Constitution,” 100 Yale L. J., pp. 1131-1132, 1991).” Meyerthen scolds Republican lawmakers: “Failure of political will does not justify unconstitutional remedies.” They have no right, he continues, “[to] reallocate their own authority” to the President. … The Constitution’s structure requires a stability which transcends the convenience of the moment. … Liberty is always at stake when one or more of the branches seek to transgress the separation of powers.”
