The MSM sinks ever lower
'The inventor of the supercomputer, the winner of the Gordon Bell Prize in 1989'.
Now I was really bothered as in fact I'd never even heard of this guy or the Gordon Bell Prize. First chance I got I set about closing this shameful gap in my knowledge. Sure enough, the BBC featured 'Dr. Philip Emeagwali' in their 'Digital Giants' series 'in which the digital world's top thinkers share their visions of the future'. Indeed.
TIME magazine gushed that 'the Web owes much of its existence to Philip Emeagwali", and yes, CNN describes him as "a father of the Internet".
For good measure no less than that noted computer scientist Bill Clinton designated him "one of the great minds of the Information Age" He's also been described as 'the Bill Gates of Africa' (which isn't saying a lot, admittedly') and his face adorns a Nigerian postage stamp because, apparently "he advertises the genius of our [Nigerian] people."
Thanks to Dave C. for this link. Check it out.
Now how in God's name had I failed to ever hear of this guy, never read a paper of his in the journals, never met him at a conference?
The reason is simple: He's a total fraud from start to finish, as even the most cursory search on the Web would show. Such a cursory search on the Web of course appears to have been beyond the capacity of the major 'news' agencies and Prez Bill.
Anyway, here's a quick summary of what must rank as one of the most grotesque misrepresentations ever in the history of computing, or indeed science in general.
Emeagwali has no Ph.D., having failed twice to convince the University of Michigan that he deserved one. This even after he took a court case on the basis that the decision was "a violation of his civil rights and that the university had discriminated against him in several ways because of his race". But he wasn't even able to use the courts reverse the University's decision. Now as a frequent PhD examiner I can tell you that all universities step on eggshells to give any half literate oaf a doctorate provided he's from a 'disadvantaged minority'. The fact that UM felt they had to go to court, and that they won, shows that his thesis and viva must have been abysmally BAAAD.
Now a genius like this should have dozens, if not hundreds, of papers published in peer-reviewed journals. The sum total based on my research……..nil. Nada. The same nil figure applies to inventions and patents, despite his claims to have 'more than fifty'. These two statistics alone show that the guy doesn't even have the official status of a junior lecturer in an obscure polytechnic.
So what about the basis for his real claim to fame, 'winning' the Gordon Bell Prize "supercomputing's Nobel Prize"? Now there's a fairly consistent correlation between the prestige of a prize and the money it pays. For example, a Nobel Prize enriches the lucky recipient with about $1.5 million, and computing's Turing Prize by the less modest $100,000. You really start going downmarket once the value descends to about $10,000 or less. And how much did the prestigious Gordon Bell Prize pay? The princely sum of $1000!!! One thousand dollars.
And as I'll show later, the genius only shared the prize, netting in total $200. That's right, 200 bucks. You'd win more on a pub quiz, but he's built a world-wide reputation on it!
Still, let's not be niggardly (whoops!). It seems that "in 1989, he programmed more than 65,000 processors to perform the world's fastest computation: 3.1 billion calculations per second. The feat smashed the previous record and proved that a network of small computers could outperform more powerful, expensive supercomputers."
In fact the prize in this instance was won by a team from Mobil Oil "whose entry ran twice as fast as Emeagwali's, with 20% more cost efficiency." So why was Emeagwali cut in? For good old diversity reasons - the judges wet their knickers at the thought of a black winner, and were also reluctant to have Mobil as the sole winners. So Emeagwali in effect won nothing, but was awarded $200 out of misguided reverse racism.
And folks, that's the full extent of his verifiable achievements. And did he achieve even that? Well, we learn that he 'was associated with a team that developed an optimization program for the oil industry'. My, my, the plot thickens. He was 'associated with' the team. (Black History Month anyone?) Given that he's lied about everything else, isn't at least a strong possibility that he copied the source code for this application, repackaged it, and submitted it as his own?
Make that a certainty, not a possibility. Remember he hasn't a single peer-reviewed research paper published. His claimed achievement would have generated a rich seam in the most prestigious journals. He's have been dining out on that in terms of published papers for years. In fact he hasn't even appeared once in any of the thousands of Requests for Comments that go into the development of Internet technical standards. Anyone who has made even the remotest contribution, let alone being 'a father of the Internet' would have appeared in dozens of them. His name appears nowhere.
In effect, he has no verifiable achievements of any kind in computing. Yet he's had the unquestioning adulation I referred to earlier heaped on him. And you'll be glad to know that he and all his extended family 'have taken up residence in the US'. I'm sure all my American readers will be thrilled with this news.
How has this outrage happened? I think you all know how it happened. Any black who can read and hasn't recently killed anyone will get catapulted into the genius category. Hasn't the whole thing degenerated into a complete farce? We're in Keystone Cops territory here.
And what about the prestigious MSM organs I referred to earlier? Well, Google this guy's name and by the third entry you'll start reading about the fraud dimension. Where were CNN, the BBC and Time when it came to this kind of rudimentary fact-checking. As I said in this post about the MSM, they're not only useless, they're misleading us, and doing it deliberately.

Scary. Very scary, that such stalwart giants of the MSM would so grotesquely delude and mislead. Such deception reinforces the importance of the blogosphere, where truth can prevail among people of similar minds.
- 26 July 2010 at 01:06
I Googled this simian clown. He has his own website touting his genius, with all of the MSM accolades prominently posted. Wikipedia has a (very) short and unflattering bio on him. F(**k the MSM. Just simply,f**k them.

Emeagwali has no Ph.D., having failed twice to convince the University of Michigan that he deserved one. This even after he took a court case on the basis that the decision was "a violation of his civil rights and that the university had discriminated against him in several ways because of his race".
A comment I have seen posted elsewhere on this sort of thing is that the universities should not discriminate against this fellow simply for having an "undocumented" PhD. Instead, let's have thousands of people take to the streets to support undocumented PhDs--after all, no doctorate is illegal! And while we are at it, let's have civil liberties groups sue the university for daring to profile students simply on the basis of their sheepskin documentation status. And then we can have church groups give this fellow sanctuary in order to run their computer programs. Perhaps even Hollywood stars would be willing to adopt him to show they do not discriminate on the basis of being able to document one's computer programs. After all, why should one have to show one's paper, identification or peer reviewed, simply to get a PhD. Where is Bill Gates when you need him?

One comment here described this as 'scary'. That's just what it is. The only possible plus is that as the MSM lies and deception get more bizarre, even the sheeple will begin to cotton on.

This asshole is still going strong. Despite everything he hasn't been called out yet. Incredible!
- 26 July 2010 at 12:51
As a Ph.D. candidate myself at a well respected university, I am amazed at the brazen lies in this guy's biography. And, yes, I did research the guy after this article.
WOW. BBC. I am going to go barf now.
Oh, and I love how his interview is all about "think outside of the box" and other platitudes.
INCLUDING totally weird and contradictory statements that Nigeria will be the third largest internet user in the future, whilst also arguing or complaining that Nigerians can't afford computers and that Nigerian schools can only afford one laptop-per-school, rather than per-child.
Good luck on all that, "Doctor" Emeagwali.
- 26 July 2010 at 13:16
Speaking of Bill Gates, you may recall him rolling out a new subsidy, sponsorship, scholarship, whatever that specifically excluded whites.
And when I say excluded whites, I don't mean he merely ignored whites as we are so used to, but specifically excluded them.
It was in the MSM a few weeks back.
Which is why I encourage ripping off his shitty software on every occasion.

Have you profiled this clever munt and his homebuilt "helicopter" yet?
Unfortunately the powerplant, which I was interested in looking at, is discreetly covered by a tarp. Since this wog's day job is making irrigation fittings, it's probably a hacked Lister Diesel engine (stolen from a white farmer who is wondering why his crops are withering in the fields).
This contraption has about as much chance of taking to the air as I have of being fucked by a dinosaur. Having said that, I would still like to see the wog fire it up and watch it shake itself, and him, to bits. Perhaps he could take his learned brother, the "Digital Giant" for a spin!
- 26 July 2010 at 16:27
to give credit where it's due, much of the exposure of this guy has come via nigerian bloggers.
- 26 July 2010 at 22:10
I read this post with growing incredulity. How in heavens name did he get away with this for so long? Ok, we KNOW how he got away with it, but it still beggars belief.
As you say, he's a TOTAL fraud.

- 27 July 2010 at 10:31
On the subject of MSM bias, there is BBC news website article today about a racist video shot by white students of black people at the free state university. In fairness, it was a pretty mean stunt. Still one never hears about the >20K murders/yr, the high % of black males who have committed rape etc from this useless newshole. Supposedly 'tough' presenters like Paxman are actually pretty pathetic interviewers, being too soft and stupid to think outside the box, something half-decent journalists used to do.
- 27 July 2010 at 16:10
You're all just jealous.
1. Philip Emeagwali, a man of immeasurably high intelligence...
It can't be measured.
2. "I don't like that term. People think it only means genius in the mathematical sense or that it refers to a select group of people," ...
As opposed to perfectly ordinary people.
3. ...the man who has been called "one of the greatest intellectual giants Africa has produced"...
4. ...Emeagwali, whose IQ is too high to be measured on conventional tests...

I took N Ackerman's advice and made a complaint to the BBC. Here's what I sent:
"My family has followed BBC news since WW2, when my father was fighting Nazis in Europe. However, you are about to lose this American reader becaue of your blatant zealousness to put a postiive spin on anyone who happens to be black. Case in point: you have lauded the genius and accomplishments of Philip Emeagwali, when in fact, he has neither. The guy is a charlatan, but from the Beeb's coverage a reader would think he was the Great Hope of the West. The politically- correct slant found in most of your current news coveage is, quite simply, revolting."

Amazing Michelle is a force of nature
Michelle Obama is turning into as good an orator as her husband. (and allegedly without using a teleprompter!)
And that is really saying something. In a tremendously powerful speech to girls in Soweto, the First Lady touched on many aspects of the anti-apartheid struggle, citing the heroic campaigners Albertina and Walter Sisulu among others.
She quoted an old freedom song, 'When you strike a woman, you strike a rock', and told the girls to grab their chance at education and to be fully engaged citizens.
Most impressively, she was fearless in talking about fighting not just AIDS but the stigma around it.
She told these girls: 'Violence against women in any place – including the home – especially the home – that isn't just a women's rights violation. It's a human rights violation.'
Then she went round doing her special hugging, which somehow she makes seem absolutely genuine

Entrepreneurship & Innovation Scholar in Residence
Through his position at Syracuse University and YourBlackWorld.com, Watkins also provides regular financial advice to a largely African American audience. He argues that African Americans should consider their financial independence to be part of their spiritual and social independence. He also argues that African Americans should find a way to "own the land on which you stand", in order to be truly liberated in America.
Did the professor of entrepreurship ever think that they could buy the land the way normal people do?
"Like hookers kept dazed on drugs, the Black athlete is kept ignorant by his coaches so they can continue to rob him blind," says Watkins. "Coaches in college are given little incentive to increase graduation rates, and even choose the classes for the athletes. It's a sham."
Why would universities list special classes which the athletes knew they would have no bother passing?

Professors are now questioning hiring practices in the United Kingdom after reports show that out of more than 14,000 professors at the universities, only 50 are black.
And are they even real professors in real subjects?
- 6 July 2011 at 09:00
While we are tempted to jump up and down in excitement over the school's decision to accept the fact that blacks are just as bright as whites, we might need to take a moment of pause. Even though the presence of black students is very important to a campus, the reality is that admitting students of color neither requires significant courage nor shows any real sign of meaningful progress when it comes to truly shaping the direction of a university. The holy grail of power in any academic environment is the number of tenured faculty positions, which Harvard continues to keep African Americans from obtaining.
Harvard Adds Black Students, Fails In Hiring Black Professors
Professor Boyce Watson
would be angling for the appointment, on merit, of who?
hey come to absorb information, but have little role in deciding what information will be disseminated. They are invited temporary guests to what some would define to be an academic plantation, where black folks are allowed to ride in the car, but almost never given the right to drive it.

Interesing about Harvard. I did not know that actually. But on reflection, it'd have to be that way.

Common Purpose is exploiting the News of the World hacking scandal to further its media control agenda.
So what is Common Purpose up to? They are now campaigning for "the establishment of a full public inquiry into phone hacking and other forms of illegal intrusion by the press" as it says on the hackinginquiry.org website.
We know that Common Purpose is seriously into social control so they are exploiting 'hackgate' to promote their control of the media agenda.
These are the dudes whose motives are questuined elsewhere.

David Norris's secreatry was in tears because the big bad bold IRA sent him a death threat. He marched over to their offices and told them that they knew where he lived and he could make an appointment with him at any time but they were not to distrub his staff.
Eogahn Harris had a caller ring the Sunday Independent with a death threat against him.
Would Norris be able to produce a copy of the letter?
the name of the secreatary reduced to tears?
Did he contact the Gardai about this threat to a senator/ would be senator? (Biographer never revealed when (INDEED IF IT DID) happened?)
Would Harris be able to say when the call came to the Independent's offices?
Will any of the media (who had no problem with the Artane, Magdalene(x2), Ashascragh hoaxes) ask if either of these two events were rreal?

The Irish Church should detach from the Roman Church and have closer contact with the Church of Ireland.

Perhaps I misunderstood, but the thrust of this book seems to be how to give people things they don't want and raise your own profile at the same time. I had an uncomfortable feeling that there was an unstated political agenda, not necessarily democratic. 'Networks of leaders', it seems to me, create an inset and an outset. If I am right, this is far from empowering for the latter. Do you perhaps feel that you have less control over your own life than you used to ? This book may explain why, and I don't mean that as a recommendation.

WE can only speculate on how much money Fr Kevin Reynolds received from RTE -- but whatever the amount, he was entitled to every cent.
That's not something I say with any joy at all, given that I have significant respect for the reporter involved, Aoife Kavanagh, as well as for the programme she was reporting for, 'Prime Time'.
She is a very fine journalist who has carried out some excellent reporting work for the national broadcaster. 'Prime Time' has a superb track record in broadcasting programmes on issues which are of national importance. It's not just that the issues are exposed, either; such is the power and credibility of the brand that it means situations which are illegal or unjust often end up being changed. That gives it a powerful place in Irish society
What sucking up. If she had done a proper investigation then this programme would not have been made.
One of the allegations made in an RTE programme "investigating" staff members at a Catholic institution was that someone got stitches for a procedure which would have necesitated surgery.
Another claim in another programme could be dismissed because the medical procedure was also wrong yet RTE will not give any airtime to people who claim to have devices fitted in them after anal probes by aliens.
Do we pay our license fee so that RTE can discriminate against them?

Three versions of boy's death Sunday Independent 19 December 1999
I refer to Mr Bernard O'Connell's reply last week in your letters page to my letter relating to the accidental death of a boy in Artane.
Mr O'Connell stands by his story. Which one? He has now presented the public with no fewer than three different versions of this event. In one version the boy fell 40 feet, brushing past Bernard and almost touching him. In the second version the boy was actually thrown over the banister by a Brother and fell a distance of 120 feet. In this account, Mr O'Connell describes external injuries which are totally at variance with the injuries described by the surgeon in the Mater Hospital and by the pathologist. The third version given by Mr O'Connell states that both the boy and a Brother crashed into Bernard, knocking him down several steps.
He finishes his third account by stating that the event took place in the winter of 1956. In fact, the sad accident occurred on February 18, 1951. The factual account of what happened is contained in the Coroner's Report, the contents of which were outlined in my original letter. The Coroner's Report states clearly that no foul play was suspected and that there was adequate supervision in place at the time of the accident.
The records show that no other boy resident of Artane died in the 1950s.

The New York Times has asked three experts how rape cases should eb covered in the paper.
One of the three experts was CNN's Wendy Murphy of the Duke University hoax who "in her public statements about the highest profile sexual assault case of recent years:
asserted, without any evidence, that "there's a very good chance there was a payoff" to false accuser Crystal Mangum and the second dancer, Kim Roberts;
implied, falsely, that the unreleased 1000+ pages of the discovery file, which contained Mangum's psychological records and was sealed upon orders of the judge, might have contained "witness statements from the defendants' friends—statements saying that a rape occurred just as [Mangum] described";
fantasized, falsely, about the existence of "broomstick DNA" in the case;
reasoned that, contrary to North Carolina's open-file discovery law, ex-DA Mike Nifong had a right to withhold evidence from the defense (one of the offenses for which he was eventually disbarred;
deemed Mangum's ever-changing version of events as "minor inconsistencies";
claimed, falsely, that President Brodhead had publicly asserted that "many" non-lacrosse players attended the party;
"bet," on national TV, that one of the falsely accused players was "molested as a child";
made no fewer than 18 false statements in the first nine months of the case alone."
And who was unavailable to testify for Nifong at his disbarment hearing. Presumably because she was unable to function in the real world?

Sex-abuse survivors group calls for Jim Boeheim to be disciplined by Syracuse amid Bernie Fine allegations
Read more: A national sex-abuse survivors group is calling for Syracuse University to discipline longtime basketball coach Jim Boeheim for calling Bernie Fine's accusers liars and extortionists.
His name is Matt Michael, and he used to be a reporter for The Syracuse Post-Standard newspaper, and he started working in the fall of 2002 on a story about a former Syracuse University ball boy accusing a Syracuse assistant coach, Bernie Fine, of molesting him as far back as 1984. But before Michael ever got to Syracuse, before he covered Syracuse basketball himself, before he finally moved over to news, he was a student sportswriter at Penn State. Michael is Penn State '85. He covered football for the college paper there, which means he covered Jerry Sandusky. And when he found out about Sandusky the way the world did over this past month, Michael thought right away about the story he and another reporter worked on for months once, out of the fall of '02 and into the spring of '03, a long 140-inch story that his paper finally elected not to publish.
So MSM cannot publish real stories but they can find room for Selena Roberts inventions?

The Jewish Plan for Genocide of USA Whites
ISRAEL COHEN (1912) top of page
"We must realize that our party's most powerful weapon is racial tensions. By propounding into the consciousness of the dark races that for centuries they have been oppressed by whites, we can mold them to the program of the Communist Party. In America we will aim for subtle victory. While inflaming the Negro minority against the whites, we will endeavor to instill in the whites a guilt complex for their exploitation of the Negros. We will aid the Negroes to rise in prominence in every walk of life, in the professions and in the world of sports and entertainment. With this prestige, the Negro will be able to intermarry with the whites and begin a process which will deliver America to our cause."

The Jews were the common mediators and factors in this traffic (child slave trading), as well as the most extensive slave-traders all over Europe, both then (4 & 5th centuries A.D.) and in subsequent times; and a considerable part of the hereditary hatred of the European masses towards the Jews is to be ascribed to this historic fact.

We both have anorexia nervosa, the psychiatric illness which causes more fatalities than any other,, and which is the most difficult disease from which to recover fully.
We also share an addiction to the only thing we have ever wanted to feed on, suckle at and drink in great big, thirsty gulps: the glossy world of fashion magazines, the sartorial equivalent of toxic waste.
Rachael, who is 20, hit the headlines last week when she and her mother, Lynne, set up an online petition calling for airbrushed photographs in glossy magazines to be clearly labelled as such.
Rachael's decline into anorexia was made worse by her obsession with photographs of super-slim celebrities in magazines.
She traces the beginnings of her illness back to being 13, when she saw a picture of Victoria Beckham in a magazine.
'I absolutely loved her. She seemed to have it all. She was skinny, with big boobs,' Rachael says.
'She was my idol. I went around telling everyone that when I grew up, I wanted to have big breasts and be really, really thin.'

A pregnant British woman could face the death penalty in Pakistan after she was caught trying to smuggle heroin worth £3.2million.
Khadija Shah, 25, was attempting to return to Birmingham with her two children when she was arrested by police officers who uncovered 140lb of the drug concealed inside clothes in three suitcases.
She claimed she took the bags as a favour for men she met in Pakistan and did not know what was in them. Authorities in the capital Islamabad suspect the men were gangsters.
Suspected gangster try to use woman to smuggle drugs to UK
Well done professional journalists as I would have suspected Liontamers.

Late last night, in a shameful example of editorial cowardice, the Chronicle of Higher Education fired Naomi Schaefer Riley. Naomi is a good friend of mine, a sometimes contributor to THE WEEKLY STANDARD, and a fine writer. And the story of what happened to her is highly instructive.
chronicle of higher education
Naomi joined the Chronicle's "Brainstorm Blog" a little over a year ago. It was a good hire—she's written two insightful books on academia, God on the Quad and The Faculty Lounges, along with dozens of articles on the subject. Her postings were smart and entertaining. (For a couple of samples, click over to "If this is art, your middle-school daughter is Picasso" and "No sex for you.")
Last week she wrote about the world of "Black Studies" in a post titled "The most persuasive case for getting rid of Black Studies? Read the dissertations." You should read the whole thing, because it's only 520 words, but here's the gist of Naomi's argument:
I just got around to reading The Chronicle's recent piece on the young guns of black studies. If ever there were a case for eliminating the discipline, the sidebar explaining some of the dissertations being offered by the best and the brightest of black-studies graduate students has made it. What a collection of left-wing victimization claptrap. The best that can be said of these topics is that they're so irrelevant no one will ever look at them.
Black studies dissertations make the toilet paper they are written on worthless!
Boycott the Chronicle of Higher Education.
Not quite MSM but this is how they too misbehave.

The Irish Times television review said that Nora Owen would be presenting a version of Mastermind on TV3 and asked would she be Ireland's answer to Anne Robinson.
Anne Robinson was the dumb as Barry Obama Mirror columnist who wrote that Robber(t) Maxwell was her hero for saving the Mirror a few days before it was revealed that the company had lost £200 million because some overweight guy was stealing money from the pension fund to fund companies that the guy who was not fit to run a public company ran and was she ever called out for her stupidity?
In case you have not worked out the answer the presstitutes love this working class girl who somehow managed to be from the only working class family in an upper middle class area of Liverpool.
Magnus Magnusson and John Humphries are the guys who presented Mastermind whereas the UK's answer to Eamon Dunphy presented The Weakest Link.

Paul Gadd aka Gary Glitter went to Viet Nam to enjoy the company of teenage prostitutes. When his repellent behaviour was going to be found out in the 70s he would be "found" banging a hot off duty WPC.
Just like Jimmy Saville who was despised by many in the BBC including Bill Cotton and Paul Gambanchini.
Jonathon King also a BBC DJ was very very interested in teenagers and went to jail for his interest.
The manager of the Bay City Rollers was jailed for what he did to boys and it was forgotten about just like Dunblane massacre Thomas Hamilton who did the same forgettable thing and the guy who was an employee of Rangers FC but never of Celtic yet Celtic and Jock Stein are held responsible for the behaviour of an employee of another team.

The Independent once ran with a story of a guy "earning" enough to keep a G5 Gulfstream jet because they lifted the story from the interwebz.
The Irish Times also have done something similar.
The Irish Times also had three different accounts for a child being killed in an industrial school which was witnessed by the same witness three different times in three separate locations in three different years which did not take place.
Just like the child killed in Kilkenny by those nasty priests which did not happen just like the child was killed in Galway somewhere on three different occasions that never happened but the lazy bastards could never find time Tom-ention what one of their own got up to. Humph!
Then we had the ESRI guy saying 40% of people working would be better off on the dole because he double counted some payments and refused to acknowledge that people on a certain income in employment can also have a medical card and the peer review people did not pick up on it nor did the media who dutifully copied it.
This is the same ESRI who published a paper that locals were twice as likely to get called for interviews because John got called for 2 different interviews whereas Destroyus (even if they had the same CVs) had only 1 different.
The media did not pick up on that.
Now it turns out that the Garda sergeant who has to steal food to survive is a fake unlike Joe Purcell who is keeping it real kicking it to the 1% on behalf of the 99% by attempting to steal a box of corn flakes.

The msm is controlled for the purpose to mislead everyone about what is really going on. There is a way to see through them. If they start talking incessantly about any one thing, especially something ridiculous, they are doing so to bury another story and distract everyone. If you read enough of the articles you may notice a pattern, there are certain phrases they use to push propaganda and perpetuate lies. (Two recent examples are duck dynasty and the ndaa, and the lies about Assad and Syria) The only thing we can do is to make papers that show the truth and fill the newspaper dispensers up with them, and use blogs to ridicule every msm page that does not allow comments.

The Use of LEDs As Daytime Running Lights
Since the introduction of the automobile, lighting has remained an integral part of cars. Since the beginning, headlight design has morphed from the original utilitarian design to a more aesthetically pleasing one while at the same time improving in technology. The introduction of daytime running lights within the headlight housing to the automotive mainstream has been largely a hit because of safety reasons. The use of LEDs instead of incandescent bulbs for those daytime running lights is even more of an improvement.
Daytime running lights are automatically turned on as soon as the vehicle starts to move, emitting light to increase the conspicuity of the vehicle during daylight driving conditions. They improve safety by reducing crashes because when these lights are on, they make it easier for the approaching vehicle that is far away to notice you better. They grab the driver's attention faster than cars without them. If LED's are used, they even look brighter.

Katy, Rihanna, and Gaga
Girl Sh-t Is The Best Shit. It should be the subtitle of this blog -- LaineyGossip: Girl Sh-t Is The Best Sh-t.
Because Brenda and Kelly, Blair and Serena, the Barden Bellas -- friendships are complicated and exhilarating and dramatic, both as you experience them and as you observe them.
Katy Perry released her new song Roar yesterday. People are saying it sounds like Sara Bareilles and/or Pink. Whatever you think it sounds like, whatever you think of it period, Roar is already a Smash. I heard it 3 times on my commute home last night and another 3 times on my ride to work this morning. It'll be like this for at least half a year.
Lady Gaga also released a new song yesterday. It's called Applause. She was supposed to drop it next week but due to leaks etc, she decided to go ahead with it a week early. So then her fans (about as Twi-Hard as they come) were Twitter-fighting Katy's fans and Gaga had to tell them all to chill the f-ck out because she and Katy support each other and even tweeted each other on the weekend. Some people don't believe her.
Girl Sh-t?
I don't want to believe it's Girl Sh-t. Not that these two aren't capable of it but at this point, there's no reason not to believe that Gaga was doing it to prevent leaks. After all, Kanye and Jay were dropping albums close together and no one called it Boy Sh-t. IF however it keeps going down like this at the VMAs and in the fall for the full album releases, well, then we have a lot more to go on. But don't you want to know who's scheduling those performances? Katy, Gaga, AND Kanye, and Miley have committed to the show. The VMAs have been steadily declining in entertainment value for years.
Backstage is what we need to see more of.
In other Katy Perry Girl Sh-t news, she and Rihanna went out for dinner last night. She also posted a photo of the two of them on Twitter. No Chris Brown, no Girl Sh-t.
Wenn, Splash

My recent reading has uncovered an interesting connection: memoirs of the Reign of Terror (1793-94) are clearly indebted to and sometimes written by the same people who penned the famous causes célèbres of the Old Regime judiciary. One writer who lived in both worlds, and achieved a certain literary fame right after the end of the Terror in what is called the Thermidorian period, is Pierre-Anne-Louis de Maton de La Varenne (1761-1813). A well-respected lawyer and member of the Parlement de Paris, Maton de La Varenne gained early fame during the Revolution for his espousal of civil status for the family of the executioner Sanson, but was arrested during a purge of suspected royalists and imprisoned in La Force right before the massacres of September 2-3, 1792. Maton de La Varenne's memoirs, published in 1795, focus primarily on the grisly events of September 1792 when the Jacobins, under orders from Marat and Robespierre (according to Maton), orchestrated the mass slaughter of thousands of clergy and royalist sympathizers being held in Paris prisons.
Like the mémoires judiciaires penned by the author during his former life, his memoir uses the literary technique of dramatic suspense and revelation in the service of political persuasion. Minute by minute and paragraph by paragraph, the reader relives the prisoner's anguish as he hears the shrieks of the dying amid the metallic clink of axes falling, and cringes at the heavy tread of the guards outside his cell. When his own turn arrives, the author dexterously shields his royalist tendencies from sight, citing the personal integrity he had developed through years in the legal profession as proof of his innocence to a dumbfounded judge and awe-struck crowd of murderers. His narration of leaving the make-shift tribunal stages a melodramatic coupling of Good and Evil that is mirrored in the gory frontispiece to the book (See illustration):
I cringed in horror at the sight of an enormous pile of naked cadavers lying in the gutter, filthy with blood and mud, upon which I had to take an oath. … I was saying the words they demanded from me, when one of my former clients fortuitously passed by. He recognized me, swore for me, embraced me a thousand times, and even brought the killers to my side. (1)
Note how the good lawyer avoids sullying his honor by sidestepping the oath, and how he is saved by a symbol of his former power (a satisfied client of the royal court). Right and Wrong, Good and Evil are clearly legible in this text, and reveal its debt to the mémoires judiciaires.
That genre, as Sarah Maza has noted, deftly employs the melodramatic mode to go beyond an obvious appeal to readers' or viewers' hunger for strong sensations: it works to visualize and simplify morality. (2) The stark juxtaposition of a weirdly calm Marat pontificating in front of his murderous butchers, while the cautious lawyer picks his way out of the fray, build upon the melodramatic urge to assign unambiguous moral labels to situations fraught with political complexity.
Les Crimes de Marat went through three editions in 1795; most interesting to us are the successive editorial changes Maton de La Varennes made to his book, because they reveal how a death threat, and the alarm it spawned, were employed to confer authenticity and political urgency on his work. Psychological manipulation of readers was widely and effectively employed in Thermidorian fiction; it may explain for some of the upsurge in novel reading after the Terror. Maton de la Varenne claims that one person was so enraged on reading the first edition of Les Crimes, and seeing the name of a friend amid the list of ignominious deputies who egged on the September massacres, that she announced: "I will be for the author another CHARLOTTE CORDAY." Although he suppressed G…'s name in this edition, and admits taken precautions against his would-be assassin's "pretty project," Maton de la Varenne also enlists the reader on his side, and cites a stirring quote from Montesquieu's Esprit des lois to defend their freedom of speech from persecutors. Dire threats raise book sales, as we know. The death threat against the author may very well have revved up sales of his other two books advertised on the inside cover of Les Crimes…

Before the season, Whitecaps FC head coach Martin Rennie set a goal to make the MLS Cup Playoffs. That may have seemed a lofty goal for a club coming off of a last-place finish in 2011, but after a long season the 'Caps achieved that goal. Along the way the team got their first MLS road victory, set a record for the longest shutout streak to start an MLS season, and put together an impressive home record by losing only three of 17 matches at BC Place.
We will most definitely be underdogs going into next week's playoff clash versus LA Galaxy on the road, but one fact remains: this team is one of only 10 clubs left that can win MLS Cup this season.

We train others so they can make an enormous impact on a child's life. This Kempe program offers information and training to a wide variety of audiences. We provide consultation services, post-graduate fellowships, and visiting scholars programs for current experts and up-and-coming leaders. In addition, we train child protection professionals and foster parents in the community, and we respond to clinical calls and e-mails arriving at our center. We also work on legal and social science research projects and implement training and education programs for those in the fields of medicine, law, social work, and mental health. Each year, medical students and residents from across the U.S. spend elective time at the Kempe Center and gain invaluable experience for their careers in the fight against child abuse.
