PokerStars’ World Blogger Championship of Online Poker Bounties
You got this, right?
Dear PokerStars Player,
Just a few days remain until the world’s bloggers will compete in the biggest blogger freeroll on the planet. PokerStars’ World Blogger Championship of Online Poker (WBCOOP) is this Sunday at 4:00pm ET. The stakes are high. The online scribes will be competing for more than $37,000 worth of prizes, including a seat in the 2006 World Series of Poker main event.
To make the event even more interesting, PokerStars has just placed bounties on the heads of five well-known bloggers and personalities.
…
Bounties! When you knock out one of the “well-known bloggers and personalities”–Iggy and CJ included–you get an entry into the PokerStars $370 buy-in 150 WSOP Seat Guaranteed event on July 16.
All except Wil Wheaton.
Knocking him out gets you a hat, shirt, and fleece, inscribed with the words “I knocked Wil Wheaton out of the BCOPB and all I got was this lousy t-shirt.” That’s right, it’s not even customized for the particular article of clothing it’s on.
Strange things are afoot at Stars HQ.

Comments are temporarily hosed
Pin it on an overload of comment spam, a plug-in installation gone awry, and a loss of interest on the part of the blog manager. We’ll be back soon. Go play around on MySpace in the meantime…

Oil dollars and state sponsors of terror
It’s a little stale, as far as news goes, but here you go:
FindLaw: Syria signs deal with US oil company despite sanctions
(AP) – DAMASCUS, Syria-Syria signed a US$127 million deal with an American oil company Monday despite U.S. sanctions on the country, the official Syrian news agency reported Tuesday.
The state-owned Syrian Oil Company signed a 25-year contract with the U.S. Marathon Oil Company Monday for oil and gas exploration in central Syria, the agency said. The agreement is renewable every 5 years.
In May 2004, U.S. President George W. Bush banned all U.S. exports to Syria except for food and medicine, in accordance with the Syria Accountability Act – a law passed a year earlier that calls for sanctions against Syria for its alleged support of terrorism. The ban does not cover oil companies, however, and there are several U.S. oil companies operating in Syria.
Of course.
