The Daily Numbers: 2 new flight paths put into effect yesterday for departing planes at Philly International and taking them over Delaware County.
100 planes that took the new routes, including both Delaware County and Gloucester County in New Jersey
1 person found dead inside a burned house in the Cobbs Creek section of West Philly. Police say the woman had been shot to death. Another woman was injured in the fire.
10,000 dollars chipped into our holiday fund drive, The Merry Christmas Fund, yesterday by the folks at Harrah’s Chester Casino & Racetrack. Jingle all the way for the casino folks.
90 million dollar proposal for a movie studio that got several zoning approvals from Chester Township supervisors.
84,102 dollars that authorities are alleging was ripped off from veterans by a Berwyn man who has worked to publicize the work of his WWII colleagues. Earle Hart is 82, and he’s denying the charges.
1 teacher who is missing in Delaware County. Police say Martin Thomas Hacker of Chester Heights left his home 7:20 Wednesday morning, but never arrived at his job in Wilmington. They’re now looking for him and asking for the public’s help.
250,000 dollars ripped off from a Bucks County soccer club by a couple from Southampton. They’re now facing jail time.
7 years in a juvenile treatment center in western Pennsylvania for the teen who admitted planning a “Columbine” style attack on Plymouth Whitemarsh High School.
46 age of the boy’s mother, who was harshly criticized by the Montgomery County judge for helping her son acquire weapons and allowing the situation to fester.
5 days and counting before Christmas. OK, it’s time to panic.
100 wins for Penncrest wrestler Chuck Mulloy. Kudos!
31 of March, that’s when the Phils open their 2008 campaign against the Nationals at Citizens Bank Park.
85 points for the Sixers as they fell to their old coach, Jim O’Brien, and the Pacers last night.
0 chance of seeing rookie Kevin Kolb at quarterback for the Eagles Sunday against the Saints, according to Andy Reid.

Ya gotta love Terrell Owens. Go ahead, you can admit it. You miss him. T.O. yesterday said he wanted a ban on Jessica Simpson at Cowboys games because she was a distraction to her new beau, the guy who throws the ball to Owens. Tony Romo had a miserable day against the Eagles with his new squeeze sitting in a box with her pink Cowboys shirt.

I Don’t Get It: Jamie Lynn Spears is pregnant. She is 16. I don’t get it. She’s also Britney Spears’ younger sister. Oh, now I do.

Today’s Upper: Those folks at Harrah’s are on a roll. $200,000 for Chester students. $10,000 for the Merry Christmas Fund. Who are they going to give money to today?
