Aussies Love Sport finished strongly to record his second straight victory in the Group 3 Ming Dynasty Quality (1400m) at Royal Randwick this afternoon.
The Redoute's Choice colt was competing at Group level for the first time and proved that he belongs at that level with an impressive on-pace performance that has connections thinking about a trip to Melbourne for the Group 1 Caulfield Guineas (1600m).
Aussies Love Sport had been a frustrating horse for both punters and connections at the start of his three-year-old campaign but Gai Waterhouse stable foreman Mark Newnham said he is delighted that the colt has put it all together
"He is a lovely colt, he has just taken a little while to work it out but his racing mannerisms today were terrific," Newnham said in a post-race interview.
"He put him in the right spot and you know when Jimmy (jockey Jim Cassidy) starts to look around at the top of the rise you know that he is going alright.
"You wouldn't get a better looking animal than him and now he is starting to run up to his looks."
Waterhouse has generally touted Aussies Love Sport as a Caulfield Guineas contender but according to Newnham the Group 1 Golden Rose (1400m) could also be on the agenda.
"He is still in the Golden Rose but Gai will decide where he goes from today," Newnham said.
"It would be hard to say no too but the boss is better at making these decisions than me."
Darren Smith-trained Open Book progressed from a Sunday Class 2 Handicap at Gosford to finish second in a fabulous run while Champagne Cath produced a much better effort than her poor performance in the Dooleys Handicap (1400m) at Rosehill Gardens on August 17.

Is Trump The Manchurian Candidate, A Mole, Or The Kremlin's "Useful Idiot"?
Edgar Hoover and James Jesus Angleton, where are you, now that we really need you?
Hoover, the long-time FBI Director, and Angleton, the CIA's legendary Director of Counterintelligence, were they alive today, might be digging at a furious pace to find out if GOP standard bearer Donald Trump could be a mole working in plain view for the Kremlin's Vladimir Putin.
Sound crazy? Not really.
In a plot twist that would cause fiction writers to scratch their heads, presidential candidate Donald Trump has embraced the Russian dictator, viewing him as a more effective leader than President Barack Obama. During the recent Commander-in-Chief forum, Trump pointed out that Putin has an 82% approval rating, much higher than the American president. Hmm. Is there a Gallup or Quinnipiac organization in that country which conducts statistically valid public opinion polling?
With unprecedented obstruction by a determined Republican opposition that has tested our democracy, compared to a Russian government as authoritarian as in Czarist times, what does the term strong leader mean when equating the performance of the heads of state in Washington and Moscow?
Putin certainly doesn't have to deal with the likes of Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan, Trey Gowdy, or the extremists and Tea Party types in the congressional Freedom Caucus. He has shown that any individual who disagrees with him might get poisoned as a result of drinking tea in a London hotel, as the late Alexander Litvinenko did, or wind up being shot on a bridge in Moscow, the fate of Boris Nemtsov, the late former deputy prime minister.
Russians drink their tea with some added sugar or honey and are not known to add polonium to the hot beverage, nor are they likely to be met after dinner by two gunmen lurking in the dark. Then there is the frightening story about the murders of dozens of journalists in Russia, but that's a topic by itself.
It seems that the word late is the most common descriptor for those most unfortunate souls who, unlike Trump, were not members of the Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin Fan Club.
Yet after Russian invasions of Georgia and Ukraine, you'd think that such a strong or effective leader like Putin would be even more radioactive to the Republican candidate than a glass of tea with polonium and honey in a London hotel, especially after so many violent events have befallen his critics – and neighbors. But Trump, never to be confused with the facts, remains an ardent admirer of the Kremlin strongman, a former 16-year veteran KGB intelligence agent who is not familiar with or does not accept the concept of due process of law. On Trump's infatuation with Putin and the Kremlin, even Marco Rubio got it right, saying of the Russian strongman that "He's a thug. He's a dangerous and bad guy." And as a strongman, he's certainly no democrat – small d, mind you.
But Trump also tells his audiences that he has "great judgment." If he thinks that Putin is an OK guy, it won't be the first time that we must question, um, his great judgment.
So maybe we're back to the mole angle. Have Americans fathomed how far the Republican Party – the party of national security, the party of duty, honor, country, the party of Joe McCarthy and anti-Kremlin rhetoric– has traveled in this election?
The aberration known as the Trump campaign has metastasized so much that the New York Times chimed in on The Donald's Putin bromance:
"In a fashion that would have been unheard-of for a Republican during or immediately after the Cold War, Mr. Trump has made improved relations with the Kremlin a centerpiece of his candidacy. And Russia has been a subplot of the campaign that Tom Clancy and John le Carre together may have been unable to conjure, complete with the apparent Russian hack of one of America's political parties, a threat that Russian backers may try to tamper with electronic voting machines, and Mr. Putin's unsubtle preference for Mr. Trump over Mrs. Clinton."
But maybe mole hunters Hoover and Angleton can rest easy in their graves. If you are operating as a Kremlin apologist and ally and positioned in clear view, then maybe you don't fit the classic Cold War definition of a mole, though you would still be undermining our political system.
Nope, mole doesn't fit. But the Soviets had a better term, useful idiot, to describe those observers who ignored the most brutal aspects of their new worker's paradise.
That term fits perfectly. Trump has certainly been useful to the Kremlin; he looked the other way as the thuggish Kremlin leader invaded his neighbors and whacked political opponents in a style that Tony Soprano would admire. And anyone who remembers only a fraction of his pronouncements, including the fact that he knows more about ISIS than the generals, also understands statements like that qualify him as an idiot.
Previously, Plunderbund readers learned about Paul Manafort, Trump's former campaign manager. Manafort was an advisor to pro-Russian Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych. With Yanukovych's overthrow in 2014, Putin invaded Eastern Ukraine, annexed Crimea back into the Russian state, and in the process interrupted some of Manafort's consulting work. But when many observers thought that Manafort's recent departure as campaign manager would mean that there would be one less Kremlin-loving sycophant whispering into Trump's ear, retired Army Lieutenant General Michael Flynn stepped in to fill the breach.
Flynn, a former director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, has been described as having "an odd affection for Russia and its authoritarian government." Last year, for example, he attended a banquet in Moscow and was seated close to Putin. This former career military intelligence officer is a paid contributor to RT (Russia Today), a global news channel, and appears regularly on this Kremlin-sponsored network controlled by Putin, himself a former KGB intelligence officer. Incredibly, Trump himself appeared on RT, a state-owned outlet, to attack his own government, its policies and leadership.
When you realize that a candidate for President of the United States and the former director of American military intelligence are favored by the Kremlin, it makes you wonder if either or both of these individuals are modern-day versions of The Manchurian Candidate. Richard Condon, author of the classic book, said rather prophetically that "Paranoics make the great leaders. Resenters make their best instruments." That statement alone might go a long way in describing the present Trump phenomenon as far as characterizing his audience, but Trump himself is a bit more complex, due to other prevailing idiosyncratic factors.
As we approach the home stretch in this election, an even more disturbing element in the Russian connection with Trump is the evidence that hackers have made attempts to penetrate state election databases in Arizona and Illinois. The incursions were so serious that Secretary of Defense Ash Carter, while visiting Europe last week, issued a clear warning when he said that "We will not ignore attempts to interfere with our democratic processes." News of the Russian exploration of voting systems followed earlier reports of Russian penetration of the Democratic National Committee website and of the Hillary Clinton campaign operation.
To add insult to these injuries, Trump earlier encouraged the Russians to help find some of Clinton's emails. "Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing," he said in July.
Since there have been no comparable reports of the Republican National Committee website being hacked, some might assume that since Putin has so much influence with the GOP campaign, with Russian apologist and former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort being the best example, his hackers didn't need to explore the RNC website.
What were we saying earlier about Tom Clancy and John LeCarre? Indeed, how about J. Edgar Hoover and James Jesus Angleton? Yes, spooks and spycraft beget the very ghosts that haunt us as we try to figure out Trump and the Kremlin Connection.
It is hard to imagine how far the Republican Party has traveled – so far, in fact, that the party of Joe McCarthy could at this moment be seen as, to use a McCarthy-era term, a fellow traveler in cahoots with the Russians. Worse yet, in addition to the zika vaccine that is desperately needed in this country, we may need another new vaccine to help Republicans deal with the challenges of the chronic fever they face, caused by a powerful mutation of the hypocrisy and amnesia virus, as it spreads through the legions of Trump true believers. Since everything seems so unbelievable right now, could it be that the hypocrisy and amnesia virus carried by the Trump legions is the 21st century mutation of the dreaded ….. Legionnaire's disease?
When we examine the what ifs that have been placed before us with Trump, Manafort and Gen. Flynn, with their very favorable posture toward Russia and Putin, we've discounted the mole theory since all are operating in plain sight. That still leaves two other possibilities.
The first: is Donald Trump a resurrected Manchurian Candidate? We'll need to do some more digging (moles, get out of the way) before there is additional information to report.
The second: is the Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin Fan Club member, Donald Trump, a useful idiot?
Denis Smith is a retired school administrator and a former consultant in the Ohio Department of Education's charter school office. He writes about education issues as well as politics and constitutional reform.
A cry for help to a cross dressing lunatic and a cold warrior spook who cut his teeth as a member of Skull and Bones. Say it isn't so. Denis Smith, who is generally a spot on writer for the blog, has apparently suffered a severe blow to the head or has digested too much of the media's Putin is "responsible for everything bad" schtick or he is, like myself, forlorn over the dismal choices Americans have for the presidency and the money wasted in the process of this campaign season.
As for Putin, he did not invade Eastern Ukraine nor annex Crimea. He respond to a US provoked and supported coup d'etat in Kiev that brought to power a neo-Nazi regime that threatened both the Russian speaking population of the country (mostly east of the Donbas, and Crimea, where Russia leases a naval base. As for Litvinenko's "assassination,"….does anyone assassinate someone with a nuke? It is preposterous. Litvinenko was selling, to his Pakistani friend who was with him at the tea house, polonium for a dirty bomb, and he mishandled the material. That was Scotland Yards initial belief until British Intelligence took over and spun this crazy assassination yarn for maximum political spin. I could go on point by point throughout these accusations. My hope is that the Putin effect on this election is for America react to the threat of election rigging by issuing paper ballots that are publicly counted.
This has to be one of the most paranoid (and embarrassing) pieces I have read here.


text: PANAMA CITY, PANAMA — Eight pages of nude photographs of rock star Madonna drew the wrath of Catholic Archbishop Marcos G. McGrath. ''Simply shocking and unacceptable,'' he said about the supplement in the newspaper El Siglo. The pictures appeared in hundreds of newspapers around the world. ''If we have to import U.S. items, we must only import the good things, not those that further destroy the people's morals,'' McGrath said in a letter to the editor. ''The photographs undermine, more than anything else, respect due to women, the dignity of love and family solidarity.''

Suvikumpu is one of the Tapiola residential neighborhoods south and west of Tapiola Center. The rolling, wooded landscape of Suvikumpu is punctuated by a small, rocky hill which was part of a series of fortified positions left from World War II. Pietilð won a competition for this site in 1962 and the complex which we see today was built in three distinct phases over the next twenty years. While the program, building technology and use of materials evolved during this time, the original site and building strategies were consistently followed resulting in a very unified complex. The idea of an ell-shaped group of buildings to frame the hill along the north side of the site, another group extending perpendicular to the hill along the lower space of the site to the south, and a third group of communal spaces marking the intersection of the two groups on the west is clearly evident both in the competition model and in the completed project. The original design included housing for about 500 people but space for only about 300 was actually built in the first phase of construction between 1964 and 1969. Another 32 dwellings were built in the second phase between 1981-82. The third phase included the small shopping center, flower shop and several apartments and was built in 1983.
The first group of three buildings, (Suvikulma, Suvikeskus & Suvikðri) form a stepping ell shape on the north and west corner of the site framing and looking onto an open space to the south and the rocky outcropping in the center of the site. This complex seems continuous but is actually three buildings which step in height from 9 floors at the east end to 3 floors at the south end. The stepping form in plan serves to delineate individual dwellings and also provides the formal mechanism to create entrances, balconies, and windows so that the overall stepping form is simultaneously expressed in the mass of the building, the plan and section, and the detail development of individual dwellings. This idea is clearly seen in the plan which is at once repetitive and modular but, is at the same time, individualized and chaotic. The mix of dwelling types and sizes in the plan further contributes to the impression of repetitive variety. These first buildings were built of in situ concrete with other exterior surfaces of wood and plaster. The concrete is rendered as horizontal wood siding and painted in different shades of green to match the surrounding forest: spruce green, pine green, and birch green. The plaster is snow white. The repetitive, concatenated form of the plan is actually an organization of connected point access towers, each with a stair surrounded by a zone of service spaces which back up to the north and west opening to living spaces and balconies on the south and east. The second group of two connected stepping buildings which extends south past the western flank of the rock outcropping, was built in 1981-82. These, as is typical of Finnish housing construction today, were made of pre-cast concrete panels. While the same pattern of horizontal siding is used to texture the surface of the pre-cast concrete panels, the absence of the plaster walls, more extensive use of wood siding and the more redundant quality of the plans is obvious in the later group of buildings and the resulting surface quality is different. The heights vary here from two to four floors so that even though there is an obvious stepping quality to the overall form of the building, it is not as exaggerated and interesting is the 1960's project. The final element of the Suvikumpu complex was the construction of a small shopping center which is really a flower shop with several dwellings above. Unlike the competition design where the communal spaces were attached to and were formally integrated into the overall stepping layout of the site the last building to be built here is separate, disconnected element although it does provide a formal gateway to the housing areas from the west.
Pietilð is perhaps best known for his large public buildings, the churches, the student center at the Institute of Technology at Otaniemi, and the large commissions in the Middle East. Suvikumpu stands out, however, as a quintessential commission in Pietilð's work. Perhaps more successfully than any other building, this residential complex demonstrates Pietið's ideas about modernism, the influence of a natural landscape on building form and quality, and formal notions about the articulation, transformation, and manipulation of architectonic form, materials, and construction. In spite of the modernist imagery of white stucco, pre-cast concrete panels and Di Stijl scholarship, references to Nordic vernacular traditions are equally obvious. The general disposition in the forest, recalls rural farm buildings, sited to retain an intimate relationship with a natural landscape. The chiaroscuro quality of the intermittent light in the forest establishes almost metaphysical relationship with the intermittent stepping form of the building; a symbiotic relationship between building and landscape is thus established. Rendering cast concrete as horizontal wood siding, painting this shuttered concrete in pastel greens to mime forest colors, and the formal strategies which reduce undifferentiated surface to identifiable articulated elements are strategies to domesticize an underlying functionalist doctrine and shape it to a pre-existing landscape.
The combination of a modular, tectonic concept of building, usually expressed as a repetitive element, and references to a Nordic landscape, usually expressed as free-formed elements, is a critical quality of Pietilð's work. This juxtaposition of naturalistic and modular forms can been seen in the Dipoli center designed a year before Suvikumpu, but constitutes a reoccurring theme in many of Pietilð's later designs. This quality permeates his artistic studies as well and is a reoccurring element in his formal explorations about landscape and nature and in most of the wonderful sketches that accompany Pietilð designs. This formal preoccupation is augmented at Suvikumpu with a fascination about the development of the "corner". While Pietilð credits De Stijl sources, clearly this focus on the corner has become a principle theme in the architectural quality of the buildings expressed throughout from the stepping form of the building to individual dwellings to doors, windows, balconies, details and material rendering. Indeed, the organic/tectonic dialogue and the highly developed catalogue of corner articulation has become almost the raison d'õtre of Suvikumpu.
