Andy Martin Accuses Obama of Dirty Tricks
Obama unleashed his attack dogs on the Palin family. It is one of the most disgraceful performances I have witnessed in a half century of observing politics.
Martin's accusations do not seem extreme or far fetched. Obama's protestations about the recent (failed) Democratic attempts to smear Governor Sarah Palin indeed sounded insincere. I have been concerned about Mr. Obama's ethics for several months and concluded that Mr. Obama is a sociopath this past June. I would be very surprised if Mr. Obama did not engage in a considerable degree of intelligence gathering, lying and deception.
ANNOUNCEMENT OF NEW YORK NEWS CONFERENCE September 2, 2008
(NEW YORK)(September 2, 2008) The leader of the national anti-Obama movement, legendary Chicago Internet columnist and Obama author Andy Martin, will hold a New York news conference Tuesday, September 2nd to charge that Senator Barack Obama's "dirty tricks" operation was behind the smearing of Governor Sarah Palin's family.
Martin is the author of "Obama: The Man Behind the Mask."
"I want to make the accusation loudly and clearly: Barack Obama has the most sophisticated 'dirty tricks' operation in American political history. His smear artists make Nixon's 'plumbers' look like amateurs. David Axelrod's smear machine is part and parcel of the way he does business. This smear machine was behind the desperate attempts to demonize Governor Sarah Palin by embarrassing and exposing her daughter.
"Obama also likes to provide plausible deniability by protesting 'too much' that something is 'off limits' when he knows that all while his smear operation is in progress. Anonymously. Why this man wants to abolish anonymity on the Internet puzzles me. He is the most pronounced anonymous smear agent on the Internet.
"Obama's fingerprints and Axelrod's fingerprints are all over the Palin smear.
"Wednesday we will have a more detailed analysis of the pervasiveness of Obama's smear and dirty tricks operations.
"But today I am blowing the whistle on the mysterious Barry Obama, and alerting the American people to the threat Obama poses to our democracy.
"During the Army McCarthy hearings in 1954, attorney Joseph Welch uttered the eternal words: 'Senator, I think I never really gauged your cruelty, or your recklessness. Have you no sense of decency, sir, at long last? Have you left no sense of decency?'
"Obama's own teenage mother was caught in an unwanted and unwarranted pregnancy.
"Instead of being especially sensitive to such a situation, Obama unleashed his attack dogs on the Palin family. It is one of the most disgraceful performances I have witnessed in a half century of observing politics. At long last, Senator Obama, have you no sense of decency? You know what your dirty tricks operatives are doing, your 'Obamabots.' You, sir, are a threat to both American democracy and American decency.
"John McCain once said he would rather lose an election than lose a war. You would rather risk destroying a helpless teenage girl to further your mindless and limitless ambition.
"You launched your poisonous attacks. Now you want to pretend you had nothing to do with the smears. Well they did happen, and you are personally responsible for the Obama/Axelrod dirty tricks operation. You have been demonizing and smearing opponents since your first run for office.
"I saw you smear Blair Hull and Jack Ryan four years ago. I saw you try the same dirty trick against John McCain a few weeks ago. The latest mud is nothing new. This is the real Obama, the only Obama."
Andy Martin was a guest on the WABC-AM "Bob Grant Show" Monday evening. During the show, Grant told his audience "Buy this book." "I was surprised at how well-prepared Bob was," Martin stated. "He was familiar with my book. He 'got it.' Like me, Grant is an Illini. He gets Obama because he understands Illinois politics. I am sure the Obamabots will be attacking Grant the same way they attacked Milt Rosenberg in Chicago."
Andy will be at the Reuters Building in midtown Manhattan Tuesday morning at 10:00 A.M. for an Al-Jazeera English taping on American politics. His Obama news conference will follow at 12 noon.<

Which aspect of employee benefits or business qualifies you as an expert on sociopathy? Just curious.
The best reason for you to support Andy Martin is the fact that, compared to Andy Martin, you sound somewhat rational and intelligent.
Otherwise, not so much.
How's it going with that penpal campaign to the various states' secretaries of state, atorneys general, etc etc etc about Barack Obama being an alien? Did you figure out yet where he's from, exactly? Last time I looked, your list included Canada, Indonesia, Kenya and, I believe, Mars.
Your fifteen minutes is up, Mr. Langbert. Please excuse America for laughing on your way out.

That post was indeed hilarious Mr. Langbert.
Psychopath? Are you serious?
Do you think its funny that one week is all it took for the media to expose a number of stories on Sarah Palin? You've spent 2 years writing letters to various hospitals and agencies to investigate the "sordid" background on Obama.
Do you really not see the hypocrisy in you screaming "how dare they look into the background of this Vice Presidential candidate!!!"
I look at your site from time to time because it amuses me. I am by no means a hardcore republican or democrat and I have voted for both in past elections. Quite frankly, I feel that anyone who would go to the lengths that you have,..whether Democrat or Republican, clearly has lost their ability to decipher between fact and fiction. You write about Obama as if he has wronged you personally.
Do you not find humor in the fact that Palin has been a staunch advocate for teaching abstinence in school and her own daughter turns up pregnant?
(Obviously teenage pregnancy is not funny, but the baby is the grandchild of a governor, so I think he/ her will be just fine.)
Or the improper use of executive power..
Or the past connection to the Alaskan Independence Party…
Or the drug use..
Or McCain screaming for 2 years about his opponent's lack of experience and then selecting a 20 month governor as VP from a state with 600,000 people.. (The county I live in, has more people)
The real tip off that you've lost sight with reality is your inability to that you're not even questioning whether the scandal(s) surrounding Palin's past are "true"…you're more concerned with pinning what you call "smears" on Obama.
Again.. Hypocrisy = funny.
Obviously there are several negative stories about McCain and Obama's past that are less than stellar. No one has lived a perfect life free of bad decisions. But its always funny when Politicians or people in general put themselves on high moral ground and end up standing in quicksand when the truth comes out.
I'm sure a Private Investigation into your background would yield the same results. The truth will set you free.
Any luck on finding that original birth certificate?
I await your response. I'm guessing you'll scream "liberal!" and blame Obama. Enjoy your day.

Diogenes--Be proud Diogenes. You exemplify the lameness of the left to my readers (nearly 20,000 in less than six months). Please keep posting. My readers enjoy laughing.
Truthhurts--I don't find it problematic that Gov. Palin's daughter became pregnant. In 1884 the Republican elite of Boston and New York backed Grover Cleveland, then a Democratic governor, to be president. It was discovered that Mr. Cleveland had had an illicit affair with a mistress. This deterred a few of them from supporting him, but most chose to support him anyway, as his character, like Mr. McCain's, though imperfect, was superior in their view to his opponent's, James Blaine's. Senator Obama is something like James Blaine. As Senator McCain's soaring poll results show, Mr. Soros and Senator Obama's other Wall Street cronies can't fool the American public all of the time. This election is going to be the technology crash all over again for Wall Street, and you and Diogenes are long on Cisco Systems and Drugstore.com!
Many youngsters make moral errors. Governor Palin's daughter's mistake does not reflect on the candidate. My moral weaknesses do not reflect on my mother's, and my mother's, if any (which I doubt) do not reflect on me.
Nor is Ms. Palin alone. Although, sadly, I never have had children, my sister became pregnant out of wedlock. Her daughter is a great joy. I am not in the practice of throwing stones. Are you and your conscienceless left wing associates?
As far as a private investigator into my background--what is your point? I am not a chronic liar who is running for president like Barack Obama. I am not running for president at all.

" I am not in the practice of throwing stones."
You called Barack Obama a Sociopath.
Is that not a stone..?
I was not judging this girl's pregnancy..I have no right to judge, although you feel that you do. I was stating the hypocrisy of it all. That is my point.
No need to go back to 1800s to validate this woman, you would do so no matter what. Again, that is my point. You would vote for just about anyone they put up next to McCain with an (R ) by his/ her name. That is my point. However, after reading some of your views on economics, I think you may be a libertarian (e.g. you statements about doing away with monetary policy). Maybe you should give Bob Barr some support on your site (guessing you're not a Ron Paul fan).
Are conservatives being hypocritical with their defense of Gov. Sarah Palin and the controversies which have leaked out concerning her? Depending on how you plan on casting your vote there may seem to be a double standard.
If you're a minority or (man or woman) and you're selected for a job over more qualified candidates you're a "token hire."
If you're a conservative and you're selected for a job over more qualified candidates, you're a "game changer."
If you live in an Urban area and you get a girl pregnant you're a "baby daddy."
If you're the same in Alaska you're a "teen father." (Actually, according to your own MySpace page you're a " F'n redneck that don't want any kids," but that's too long a phrase for the evil liberal media to take out of context and flog morning noon and night).
Black teen pregnancies? A "crisis" in black America .
White teen pregnancies? A "blessed event" or "a great joy" to use your words.
If you grow up in Hawaii you're "exotic."
Grow up in Alaska eating mooseburgers, you're the quintessential "American story."
Similarly, if you name you kid Barack you're "unpatriotic."
Name your kid Track, you're "colorful."
If you're a Democrat and you make a VP pick without fully vetting the individual, you're "reckless."
A Republican who doesn't fully vet is a "maverick."
If you say that for the "first time in my adult lifetime I'm really proud of my country," it makes you "unfit" to be First Lady.
If you are a registered member of a fringe political group that advocates secession that makes you "First Dude."
A DUI from twenty years ago is "old news."
A speech given without proper citation from twenty years ago is "relevant information."
If you are a liberal and your unwed daughter gets pregnant it's "immoral."
If you are a Christian it's called "family values."
Obama's Experience: If you spend 3 years as a community organizer growing your organization from a staff of 1 to 13 and your budget from $70,000 to $400,000, then become the first black President of the Harvard Law Review, create a voter registration drive that registers 150,000 new African American voters, spend 12 years as a Constitutional Law professor, then spend nearly 8 more years as a State Senator representing a district with over 750,000 people, becoming chairman of the state Senate's Health and Human Services committee, then spend nearly 4 years in the United States Senate representing a state of nearly 13 million people, sponsoring 131 bills and serving on the Foreign Affairs, Environment and Public Works and Veteran's Affairs committees, you are woefully inexperienced.
Palin's Experience: If you spend 4 years on the city council and 6 years as the mayor of a town with less than 7,000 people, then spend 20 months as the governor of a state with 650,000 people, then you've got the most executive experience of anyone on either ticket, are the Commander in Chief of the Alaska military and are well-qualified to lead the nation should you be called upon to do so because your state is the closest state to Russia.
If you are a Democratic male candidate who is popular with millions of people you are an "arrogant celebrity."
If you are a popular Republican female candidate you are "energizing the base."
If you are a younger male candidate who thinks for himself and makes his own decisions you are "presumptuous."
If you are an older male candidate who makes last- minute decisions you refuse to explain, you are a "shoot from the hip" maverick.
If you are a candidate with a Harvard law degree you are "an elitist-out of touch" with the real America .
If you are a legacy (dad and granddad were admirals), bottom of the class graduate of Annapolis , with multiple disciplinary infractions you are a hero.
If you manage a multi-million dollar nationwide campaign, you are an "empty suit."
If you are a part time mayor of a town of 7000 people (who has to hire a City Manager and leaves the town 22 million$$ in debt when it started in the black), you are an "experienced executive."
If you go to a south side Chicago church, your beliefs are "extremist."
If you believe in creationism and don't believe global warming is man-made, you are "strongly principled."
If you have been married to the same woman with whom you've been wed to for 19 years and raising 2 beautiful daughters with, you're "risky."
If you cheated on your first wife with a rich heiress, and left your disfigured wife and married the heiress the next month, you're a Christian.
If you are a Democratic woman candidate and complain about the way a woman is treated and attacked in the media, it is called "whining." ( Sarah Palin 's own words)
If you are Sarah Palin and are treated the same way it is called "sexism."
If you are a Democrat and the media digs into your past and prints it, it is called "good journalism and getting to the truth."
If you are a Republican and they do the same thing, it is called a "smear campaign."
If you're a black single mother of 4 who waits for 22 hours after her water breaks to seek medical attention, you're an irresponsible parent, endangering the life of your unborn child.
But if you're a white married mother who waits 22 hours, you're spunky.
If you're a 13-year-old Chelsea Clinton , the right-wing press calls you "First Dog."
If you're a 17-year old pregnant unwed daughter of a Republican, the right-wing press calls you "beautiful" and "courageous."
If you're a liberal mayor and you ask for government financing, you're a "fan of big, tax-and-spend, corrupt government."
If you're a conservative mayor and wind up on John McCain's "worst pork" list in 2001, you are "'disgusted' that small towns like yours are dependent on earmarks," even if your town had no earmarks before you became mayor.
If you teach responsible age-appropriate sex education, including the proper use of birth control, you are eroding the fiber of society.
If you teach abstinence-only in sex education, you get teen parents.
If you're Jamie Spears, "your parents are pinheads because you got pregnant" ( O'Reilly on Fox).
If you're Bristol , your mom is eminently qualified to be VP/ or P.
Just a few reasons why your outrage amuses me.
Try to keep up that practice of not "throwing stones." Maybe I'm just sexist.
In all seriousness, I did like the stock references in your reply. Enjoy your day Mitch.

Commuters on the Bay Bridge pull to the side of the road moments before 10 a.m. to save $2 on tolls, which is illegal and dangerous, California Highway Patrol officers told Chronicle Watch.
The drivers know that if they delay long enough, they can roll through the toll gates after 10 a.m., when the charge drops from $6 to $4. CHP officers say they do their best to stop the practice, but it happens every weekday.
Officer Sam Morgan, a CHP spokesman, insists the law is enforced. He's got a few legal tips for tightwad drivers who want to avoid a ticket of up to $200, which you can see by clicking here.

Woman Arrested After TSA Uncovers 81 Pounds of Marijuana in Her Checked Luggage
Attention Potheads of Jackson, Mississippi: It might be a little dry this week…
If you've ever seen Blow, you realize that people have tried hundreds, if not thousands, of ways to transport marijuana through an airport. One woman from Mississippi, decided that she would take the boldest approach yet.
Anastasia Murdock, 26, who was traveling from Oakland to Mississippi, decided that the direct route might be the best way to get her pot haul home. Instead of trying to conceal it she, allegedly, packed three suitcases–reaching a total of 81 POUNDS of marijuana–and then checked her bags! TSA screened the bags, as they do with EVERY bag that's placed on an airplane, and discovered her weed…reportedly valued around $100,000.
The most confusing part, to me, is that she wasn't even boarding a direct flight home. Her flights were scheduled to have layovers in Phoenix and Dallas…did she think that she could beat the system that many times?

I can't make up my mind on the first-half Most Valuable Oriole.
Two months ago, I would have selected center fielder Adam Jones and assumed that he was the unanimous choice, and he's still a worthy candidate with a .289 average, 19 doubles, two triples, 20 home runs and 44 RBIs. But he didn't bust through the tape at the first-half finish line.
Let's break down his production month-by-month:
April: 23 games, .333/.368/.611, six homers, 12 RBIs
May: 28 games, .298/.362/.623, 10 home runs, 22 RBIs
June: 26 games, .272/.299/.427, three home runs, seven RBIs
July: eight games, .188/.188/.344, one home run, three RBIs
I'm more inclined to choose closer Jim Johnson, who leads the majors with 26 saves and has blown only one opportunity, which he turned into a victory in Boston. He's 1-0 with a 1.21 ERA, nine walks and 22 strikeouts in 37 1/3 innings.
Johnson has shortened the games this season. Late-inning leads are actually safe. When's the last time that's been the case in Baltimore?
The bullpen is the No. 1 reason why the Orioles posted a winning record before the break, why they're holding onto second place in the American League East and why they're talking about being buyers at the non-waiver trade deadline.
Johnson saved seven games in April, nine in May, seven in June and three so far in July. Of course, some things are out of his control. He actually needs a lead in the ninth inning.
Jason Hammel also is a worthy candidate with an 8-5 record, 3.47 ERA and 101 strikeouts in 106 1/3 innings. It's unfortunate that he's lost his last three starts.
So, who would you choose as your first-half Most Valuable Oriole?
The Tigers will be in town this weekend, and Johnson hasn't allowed an earned run against them in 11 career games, spanning 12 innings. He's permitted one unearned run and eight hits, walked four and struck out 10.
Jones is a career .319 hitter in 30 games against the Tigers.
Hammel is 2-0 in six career appearances against the Tigers, but he's posted a 6.20 ERA and 1.82 WHIP in 20 1/3 innings.

It's winter, such as it is, and I've been watching way too much TV. I expect that happens to most of us, especially when it's dark and slippery with not much snow. Twenty-four-seven news is about to drive me over the brink and some nights I feel like my brain has been fried because I've watched just one more cooking show or crime show or maybe even some dumb thing like "Manswers" or "1,000 Ways to Die." Why do we subject ourselves to such idiocy? Maybe because we don't know people like that, or at least we're glad it's not family.
Lots of things show up on TV that wouldn't have a few years ago. Think Smilin' Bob here. Satellite and cable have made the difference, I know. I guess because it comes into one's home by choice, it's assumed if you don't want it, you can not-subscribe. It's not quite that easy but I DO get the point.
However, even network programs are a little raw at times. Having come from the age when "Damn" in a movie was considered risqu, I am still a little flummoxed to hear the language permitted on TV these days. And we've gone from an era when the Flintstones, a cartoon couple, were the only man and woman permitted in bed together on TV to couples coupling every chance they get in living color. I guess that's progress, or is the word license?
Rather like Playboy magazine which you only buy for the articles, I could say I watch TV for the commercials. Most of the time they are better than the program, which brings us to the Super Bowl. Don't ask me the score, or even who won, but I remember the commercials. I've always suspected that sporting event is televised as much as a showcase for new commercials as for the football. For days ahead companies put out little hints about just how over the top they'll be for the Super Bowl. This year, I think the pro-lifers get the prize for controversy, manufactured or not. At least it wasn't PETA trying to sell vegetarianism with sex, humor and animals (the three must-haves for successful commercials). The beer companies usually get the prize for the most entertaining, and for the most money spent. A 30-second Super Bowl commercial this year was about $2.5 million.
I love kids in commercials. My favorite right now is the Volkswagen commercial highlighting the underfloor storage area where the young boy strips and stashes his clothes after getting soaked. The look on his face is adorable and the looks the girls in the back seat give him are priceless. I can see it happening! The Geico gecko is also good, as are the cave men for the same company. And I like the credit report music group. I keep hoping he'll get his act together soon and wait impatiently for the next episode (commercial) to see if it happens.
But finally Susie Homemaker, doing housework in her frilly apron, high heels and perfect hair, has retired. She sold a lot of household products, from margarine to toilet bowl cleaner. At least now the representatives are a little more realistic. Hawking a PMS product wearing a frilly apron and upswept hair probably wouldn't sell these days, unless she was using the high heeled shoe as a deadly weapon.
When I was a kid, a few years ago, I listened to the radio every Saturday morning. One program was "Let's Pretend" and it dramatized fairy tales in a half hour show. That particular program, under various titles, lasted 30-plus years on the radio in basically the same format: Entertainment for children. The sponsor all that time was Cream Of Wheat: "Cream of wheat is so good to eat that we eat it every day ... It's good for growing babies and grown-ups too to eat ... For all the family's breakfast, you can't beat Cream of Wheat."
I won't tell you how many year ago that was, but if you believe commercials don't make an impression think of the things YOU recall from X years ago. Remember "Plop, Plop, fizz, fizz, oh what a relief it is" and the cute little character that went with it? Besides the fizzing tablet, that product is now in gelcap form and the commercials are fairly benign. I can't even remember a recent one.
Commercials are powerful, whether you use the product or not, if they are catchy and cute. Even the public service ones are good or at least poignant. The ASPCA's sad dogs are memorable, and the Impaired Driving is a Dead End message hits home where it should with the younger set, I hope. I for sure remember it. TV as an educator, good or bad, is often overlooked.
We're gaining more than five minutes a day of daylight now. Pretty soon I can turn off the TV and focus on something more productive, like break-up. But for now, the Olympics are here and I can boggle my mind with curling, snowboarding and ice-skating for the next two weeks. And wish it WAS family.

Developed materials. Outline Designs of Minor Rest Area and Full Service Travel Centre.
Durind the project were developed Outline Designs of Minor Rest Area and Full Service Travel Centre.

It's possible that ABC had a hand in this. Another consideration - based on the information regarding the edit from the poster in Ohio who knows him - is that Brad was making inappropriate gestures towards Jillian when they returned from the Amazing Race Date and David defended Jillian.Originally Posted by valley54;3478601;
Since Brad was part of the 1st place Amazing Race team, Jillian may not have felt she could let Brad go during that Rose Ceremony since we - the viewers -would not have the back story regarding his behavior. Since David came to her defense during that incident, she saw him in a different light than what we were privy to at home. This bought him - David - another Rose Ceremony since there were two others that she knew she had no interest in at all.
Based on the previews for this week, she does not feel obliged to kiss David, so we have to trust that she either picked up herself that he's not the one for her (practically knocking her over when he looked drunk at the last ceremony could have something to do with that) and/or other people on the set have clued her in that he's a dangerous guy.
There are editing tricks and we don't see the whole story. That said, I hope that David does seek professional help for anger and substance abuse issues after he sees how he has been portrayed.
David was not on the Amazing Race date; he was on the Harlem Globetrotters date--he and Brad would not have been in the same limo.
Wherever she went, including here, it was against her better judgment. --Dorothy Parker
There goes my theory, except for the one about keeping Brad there one more week than he should have been there!Originally Posted by BritLit;3487166;
Pretty sure we are going to send more conflict with David this week and its not just going to be with JuanOriginally Posted by moflan;3487143;
wow - what makes you say that? He does just seem to walk around looking to pick a fight - but wondered if you know more?Originally Posted by lisamill36;3487217;

Sorry for the blip... I'm still figuring out the 'skill' of posting
Just wanted to agree with you and wondered if you'd seen the Thoughts and Comments thread #991 .... an RN with experience in this area was answering my earlier questions re:whether anyone was wondering about drug abuse in David's behavior, beyond just the booze and the editing/acting.... and we were also speculating about the extent of any screening done on participants..... I'm too new to all this to know any history of past seasons... I gather hoping for some sort of standard tends to be a vain one with these B/B'ette producers
What do you think?
I think MayJ is right. David acts like a Tweaker (crystal meth addict). They are not nice people. But wait, it just dawned on me... he also acts like a steroid abuser.
I think you all are doing exactly what the producers wanted to happen. David, I am sure, along with a whole bunch of other stellar guys, was hired to play a part. Not only do we not see anything but the stereotype that the producers want seen, but the little minions in the background do everything possible to exacerbate the situation. Add alcohol, isolation, agravation, and stir ... wha la ... a bachelorette season. We see it season after season that someone is chosen to play an especially explosive part to liven up a stupid story line until the hometown dates. David seems to be IT this season - add a few guys that get a "gay-acting" vibe to their edit, a script exagerated foot fetish guy, a bunch of hunky filler guys, a sealed and delivered well paid country crooner, and a couple guys well compensated to finish first, second and third, with a "next bachelor" contract thrown in, you have this season of the bachelorette. A bachelorette, this time, who cannot carry on any kind of conversation that doesn't include fusing her mouth to some guy, any guy available.
This has been scripted from the beginning - starting with Deanna's season. They just keep changing the collateral damage each time and inserting a new puppet. Ugh Thank goodness for changes in format this time and beautiful new puppet theaters in which to play. The one thing that I think is too bad is that all these guys for the most part are good people - mostly ordinary people. And their lives will never be the same after this show.
I think I see an new generation of viewers ... I wonder what it will take to turn this in a new direction. Could there be another bachelor out there that will turn the ship of this franchise? I hope so.

Family Reunion Forum
Re: The Evoloution of a Family Reunion
In Response To: Re: The Evoloution of a Family Reunion ()
Hello All,
My Adams Family celebrated with our 89th Annual Adams Family Reunion this past Labor Day weekend in Columbus, OH.
A full weekend of activities that culminated with the Sunday "gathering".
Then from the "Adams Time Machine" out pops Lewis Adams and he immediately starts telling them the history of his and his wife Susan's life from slavery to freedom in the early 1800's. Lewis then names his & Susan's parents, their 10 children, their involvement in the early A.M.E. church (1824), starting a school for "colored youngun's (1844), their UGRR activities (1820-1860).
He then explains the life of his children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren..... their trials, tribulations and acomplishments.
Then 8 young Adams descendants appear with posters containg the names of Adams descendants who have distingushed themselves in the areas of Academics, Arts, Athletics, Education, Medicene, Politics, Religion and most of all Community Service.
Lewis then explains to them their resposibility in learning their family history and to carry on the "Adams Tradition" of service to their communities as Adams Descendants.
The 2 youngsters then somewhat ashamedly admit that the Adams Family had done sumpin' and how it was going to be their turn to do sumpin'.
Art Thomas
p.s. For you who are "Family Historians". Keep up your work, the efforts are/will be appreciated.

What a Fucking waste of mind. You could.have just asked about his platform and if people agree. This writer is a twat

Response to The 10 Worst Things To Say During A Break-Up:
Best way to break up with someone: Meet them up and tell them: "I don't love you. I want to be with someone I love. And you should be with someone who loves you."
If they say, "But you told me you loved me last week!" you say, "That was last week. I don't feel that way anymore."
If they ask what they did wrong, you say: "You did nothing wrong. It just doesn't work."
Mind you this is not to spare the other person of pain. They will suffer no matter what but rather it's not to fall into more hurtful shit like explaining feelings and making excuses and worse, blaming the other person.
Response to An Elementary School Sent Home Flyer Saying Not To Tell On Bullies And To Learn To Laugh At Insults:
Just wait until the bully is relaxed. Then bust a chair over his head. When he's in the floor, step on his neck and tell him the next time you will crush his wind pipe. I think that's how one should deal with bullies
I say Singer told this guy he'd be a star. "Yeah, darling, suck it like that. (Snorts a bump) gotta get up and be somebody!!" And the kid sucked and then sucked at acting so now he is bitter.
When Ron dies for being a dumbass and Ginny kills herself from the grief, Harry and Hermione can be together!

Look, anybody who says this is racist doesn't understand something fundamental. White people making fun of people of other races is like Donald Trump laughing at you because you are poor.

Response to A Lot Of People Are Very Upset That An Indian-American Woman Won The Miss America Pageant:
Why don't people in the US understand, your culture is made-up. As in it was made up by the immigrants who got there. The people who were there before were nearly annihilated and their culture is hardly present. The rest is imports. Police, hamburgers, new york pizza, white people. They are all pretty damn new imports at that. So stop with the "real" america garbage and start embracing the wonderful diversity in your country. Do you realize how lucky you are to have all those perspectives able to bounce around. It's what made the country great at one point but I see some people feel more entitled than others and it's killing your innovation and narrowing your ideas. There is no "real" America. That wonderful melting pot is what created jazz and rock and roll. It's what sprung the progressive movements of the 20th century. But this right wing religious strangle hold is killing it, man.
Pretty sane teaching right there. Maybe they will grow up with real criteria for judging the world around them and maybe they won't be mindless sheep that accept things just cuz it's the norm. From the moment they are born I will tell my kids, "Stick it to the man, not your neighbor, every chance you get, even if one day the man is me."
It's sad how insane we become when we stop being children. It's like we are so convinced that the adult point of view is ideal. Look around, does it seem ideal to you. We really do lose our minds as we get old, it's just the onset begins much sooner that we systematically believe.
they fucked it up making it about race instead of negligent behavior. Nobody believed this man is a murdered, but they would have believed he is an idiot who deserves jail time and to never own a gun again. When will we move on from these distractions and understand real problems…

Nordic Built
Joining forces for a sustainable built environment.
What was Nordic Built?
Nordic Built was a Nordic initiative to accelerate the development of sustainable building concepts – combining key Nordic strengths, providing arenas for collaboration and realising concrete projects that demonstrate world-class scalable solutions. The programme was initiated by the Nordic ministers for trade and industry and carried out in the period 2012-2014, through the execution of 3 main modules:
Module 1 – The Charter: The Charter consists of 10 principles defining the strongholds of the Nordic building sector. It provides a platform for cooperation and sets high ambitions for our future built environment, based on a holistic perspective. Click to download the Charter or to watch a video on YouTube about how the Charter was created.
Module 2 – The Challenge: The objective of the Challenge was to encourage innovation and the development of sustainable, viable and scalable refurbishment concepts for some of the most common building types in the Nordic region – and to demonstrate the principles of the Nordic Built Charter in practice. Click to see the winning projects.
Module 3 – The Change: Through a joint Nordic funding programme for innovation, R&D and demonstration projects, the aim of this module was to bring about wider change by accelerating and supporting the use of new concepts for sustainable construction. Calls for proposals were released in 2013 and 2014 and a total of 17 projects received funding – and are running until 2018. Click to read more about the funded projects.
From Nordic Built to Nordic Built Cities
While the Nordic Built programme focused on the development of innovative solutions for sustainable buildings, the aim of the Nordic Built Cities programme is to develop, visualise and export innovative solutions for urban spaces and cities. The two programmes are closely connected, and has the Charter as a common platform.
30 Sustainable Nordic buildings
Nordic Innovation are proud to present this book, which offers inspiration for how to use the Charter in practice. How does it work? What do the ten principles mean? How can they be interpreted?
The 30 building projects presented in the book can be found across the Nordic region. They represent different building types, from kindergartens to office buildings – and even a prison. Some of them are already completed, while others are in the planning phase.
What they have in common, is that they showcase excellent application of the Charter principles. They are exemplary in their innovative use of sustainable building concepts, and can serve as inspiration for building owners, architects, client consultants, developers and academia looking for new ways to consolidate a sustainable Nordic built environment.

Southampton boss Mauricio Pochettino is delighted with their defensive strength this season.
They have conceded only three goals in nine league games - with six clean sheets - giving them the second-best defensive record, behind Roma, in the whole of Europe.
But Pochettino does not see defence in the traditional sense of simply a back four and goalkeeper.
"The first line of defence when we don't have the ball is Rickie Lambert so we are all defending at the same time," he said. "We want to keep possession and when we don't have it we are crazy to get it back. It is all about the collective work."

American culture has sunk to a new low.
Don't argue with me on this, because proof can be found in the bastion of all that's standard and official: the Internal Revenue Service.
In preparing to file my taxes this year, I went to the IRS Web site to print some forms. While on the site, I saw a link that said "What's Hot." Though I generally approach anything to do with the IRS as I do cauliflower, Keanu Reeves movies and trips to the dentist get it over with as quickly as possible my curiosity got the better of me.
Want to know what's hot with the IRS?
Tax law changes.
That's right; from the department that brought you the 1040EZ and child tax credits, we now get sexy tax law changes. Forget the controversy over an adult bookstore coming to town, apparently we need to remove tax forms from libraries, cover them with opaque paper and plastic and put them in the back of magazine racks with an 18 and older stipulation for purchase.
Since when does the IRS have the authority to deem something hot? There are plenty of areas in which the IRS is eminently qualified to make designations tax rates for various income levels, stipulations about what can and can not be deducted, whether Aunt Sally's Pomeranian qualifies as a dependent but determining hotness? Unless Halle Berry or Tom Cruise have been hired as consultants, I think that's out of their realm of expertise.
I don't consider myself to be an expert on what is or is not hot, either. I've never been to, much less watched on TV, an MTV spring break event; I don't think Owen Wilson's smooshed, crooked nose is at all attractive; and the sight of a string bikini makes me squirm with the thought of sand lodged in inappropriate places. Even so, in my uninformed opinion, I would quibble with what qualifies as hot by IRS standards.
In the entire universe, many things could unequivocally be considered not hot:
n Getting or performing an enema.
n Inadvertently seeing one of your grandparents naked.
n Cleaning clogged toilets at a Mexican restaurant.
n Newt Gingrich.
Far surpassing them all in unhotness is tax law changes. Even in the context of the IRS, tax law changes rank last in hotness. Refunds now that's hot. Or maybe if the IRS got a new commissioner who looked like Matt Damon. But tax laws? Even in the IRS, that's as cold as it gets.
But you can judge for yourselves. Following are a few examples of what is listed under the "What's Hot" link on the IRS Web site. Just to be safe, readers may want to shield the following from the eyes of prudes and impressionable youth:
n "Environmental cleanup (remediation) costs must be capitalized."
n "The standard mileage rate for the cost of operating your car, van, pickup, or panel truck is increased to 37.5 cents a mile for all business miles."
n "A C corporation generally must get a qualified appraisal of property donated after June 3, 2004, if claiming a deduction of more than $5,000."
Whew! I don't know about you, but I'm ready for a cold shower. I could go on and on with this lewd talk, but I don't want to offend anyone's sensibilities.
Personally, I find it insulting that even the government thinks it has to sex things up to get Americans to pay attention. While tax law changes are about as much fun to digest as three-day-old jeweled meatloaf, they contain important information that citizens should make themselves aware of. Isn't that reason enough to at least skim through them? And even if it's not, the IRS already has an effective means of getting people's attention threats. If the possibility of being audited isn't enough to make people stay informed and in line, simply listing tax law changes as "hot" isn't going to do much better.
On the other hand, the government may have a point. We are living in a society where it takes a campaign by P. Diddy and a host of other celebrities to get the 18 and over crowd to even register to vote; shoppers won't buy anything unless it's for the low, low price of something ending in ".99;" people only eat fast food that's either "low carb" or super sized and super artery clogging; and every movie out of Hollywood has to be described as "epic" to get people to watch it.
Maybe the IRS is right. Maybe the country has been dumbed down to the level of goldfish aimlessly floating around until something taps on the glass and flashes something shiny.
Or maybe the IRS should just stick to taxes and leave the hotness to the experts. Even Newt Gingrich in a string bikini would be better at it.

Tweet From The Womb
I'm still sitting on the fence with how to start off this post.
One option is - WHAT?! Oh you have to be KIDDING me!! The other is - HAHAHAAAA!!! OOOOHHH!!!! Can't. Breathe. For. Laughing.
Twitter has been around for a g e s and it's taken a while to really get going, but now no self-respecting anybody - celebrity or not - is without their own Twitter account.
But why restrict social media to those who have already been born!? Set up a Twitter account for your unborn child and let them tweet to their grandparents-to-be, or anyone else who wants to hear from them!
You think I'm joking?
The Kickbee is for this very purpose - it's a stretchy band that expectant mums can wear around their bump, it registers movement, sends it to the computer bla bla bla and the end result is a tweet that goes along the lines of 'I kicked mummy!'
Just when you think you've seen it all hey!

San Jose Woman Wins Olympic Judo Bronze
Marti Malloy, who perfected her judo skills at San Jose State University, won an Olympic bronze medal in the sport on Monday.
Malloy beat Portuguese fighter Telma Monteiro who had bested Malloy in their two last meetings. She later fell to Romania's Corina Caprioriu, then came back to overcome Italy's Giulia Quintavalle in the bronze medal match for the 57-kilogram division.
Japan's Kaori Matsumoto later took the gold medal, while Caprioriu won the silver.
In this video by grouls002, Malloy battles with Monteiro earlier this year in the World Masters Almaty.

Malloy's victory is a triumph for Yoshihiro Uchida, the 92-year-old founder of San Jose State's judo program, who played a key role in getting the sport started in the United States.
NBC Bay Area has a video about Malloy's triumph and ESPN offers a mini-documentary about Uchida.

Rethinking Marxism and socialism today has become an important task for those who do not accept that the failure of a project is a necessary indication of the invalidity of its questions, analyses or visions. It is also an extremely difficult task since in the concrete historical situation following the collapse of the Soviet Union it has to find its bearings in a complex pattern of reaction. There is the nostalgia and melancholy of the depressed, there is the stubborn attempt to salvage, and there is the indifferent shrug of those who see no further point. Between the remembrance of things past, the muscology of {he collector and the migrants to new pastures there is often little to choose for those who see the necessity of coming to terms with each situation in a serious, realistic way. The need for discussion and debate here is urgent and corresponds to the function of Social Scientist.
G.A. Cohen's paper is a contribution to an international effort of a rigorous and complex re-reading of Marx and the history of socialism against the background of our present historical experience. This necessitates a reflection on the ideal posited by the socialist design or vision and the agency capable of achieving this ideal. Addressing himself to normative issues of socialist moral philosophy which have gained urgency now, Cohen re-examines ideals such as class exploitation versus economic equality, illusory versus real democracy, alienation characterised by greed and fear versus mutual service and the corresponding forms of organisation of economic life. Cohen's contention that there is no recipe which could identity an agency for socialism that could rival 'what the proletariat once appeared to offer* and that new demands for equality could be based on global ecological crises requires renewed consideration and debate.
That this debate should be based on a detailed study of the recent history of socialism is obvious and K.K. Dasgupta's reconstruction of the last decade of socialism (from roughly 1980-1989/91) serves the purpose of situating our contemporary discussions by taking into account the demand for socio-economic rationality in East European debates, perestroika, the 'New Thinking* and the relevant Polish and Hungarian experiences. Dasgupta's reconstruction is a critique of the

If Ashley and Farrah had picked anyone else in the house to pick on I'd be disgusted with them. But I can't stand Brittaney Starr anymore than they can, so I find myself cheering them on.

i agree with this. although they might keep these girls around for the drama/rating factor.Originally Posted by SassnSauce;3456868;
Really? Mo'Nique was an amazing host. Who can forget "sluttatious whore"? It was Sharon who I disliked, which is unfortunate because I really liked her before her stint on the show. And she ended up being just like the ROL girls when she pulled out Megan's hair. I know most of you all loved seeing that, but even though the show is mostly fake, she was supposed to play the part of a role model as the headmistress.
But I'm liking Ricki Lake so far. She made the right decision in expelling Kiki. She was never going to change. The girl is going to be a bully for the rest of her life. They should have gotten Stalker or Lusty instead.
Loving Bubbles. I hope she wins.

It wasn't a spoiler. We know she makes it as far as the next episode because she was in the preview for the season and some of the stuff previewed hasn't happened yet. Plus, we know she made it past last night.
I don't really like that they let the girls vote each other in. It only serves to bring OUT the cattiness that they are trying to get rid of. Plus, then people like Marcia end up on the carpet. Marcia's a drunk, but she didn't hurt anyone, scream at anyone, attack anyone, or lock anyone in a bathroom.
I think Ki Ki deserved to go home, after the way she behaved towards Bubbles. Are these women crazy, saying that they didn't do anything wrong?
I think Britteney Star honestly is as crazy as a box of frogs! Either that or she is a very good actress. I rewatched the fight between her and Beverly, and she a) called Beverly a bad mother which is something she would only have said to get a reaction because she has NO idea if that's true or not and b) she repeatedly said "do it" when Beverly said she was gonna hit her. And then she hit her. And then Star started crying hysterically like Beverly was psycho and she'd just been sitting there. And when she pulled the race card on Natasha during RoL bus, she got this little smirk on her face after she said it because she knew she just bought a reaction, and then when people called her a racist she had no idea why! CARAZYYYY!!!
Oh, I definitely consider it a spoiler. People determine the winner after viewing the supertrailer. VH1 really needs to become more wary about the scenes they show in their teasers. That's why I don't pay attention that much whenever I see the supertrailers.
ETA: I'm just really anti-spoiler, so I get sad whenever I read anything that can be considered one. Especially with this show, because it has been amazing so far. I don't want the results to be ruined for me; I enjoy the show more that way.

Nothing much to say ....except the girl who came to talk about the LA river in the challenge was a friend of mine from high school....that was weird, lol
When the Power of Love overcomes the Love of Power, the World will know Peace
I'm glad Kiki left, although I can totally understand why she's angry and after her exit interview I can see why So Hood and Bay Bay Bay (even though I can't stand Bay Bay Bay) are so angry and upset. The fights with Kiki and her clique vs. Bubbles all happened on the very first day, and apparently Ricki gave Bubbles and KiKi alone time and they squashed their beef that day. All those fights ganging up on Bubbles were apparently on the first day (minus the small bus incident, which now makes sense why KiKi told Bubbles on the bus that everything is squashed so she doesn't know why Bubbles is making comments about them). Fast foward to the second challenge and beyond and KiKi really hasn't done much of anything, so it looks like KiKi got expelled for seemingly little to no reason during the second expulsion ceremony.
I hate how LaLa tried bringing in the race card, but it does make sense that Ricki probably wouldn't keep expelling ROL girls one after another or else it'd be boring/raise suspicious eyebrows that she's favoring the black women, so she felt more inclined to get rid of KiKi. Also, after Farrah/Ashley/Marcia walked out of the ceremony and Ricki talked to them alone, I think Ricki was more inclined to save Marcia and Ashley after that because she got more direct time with them and not with KiKi.
So in the end, I don't think KiKi should have been expelled (I so wish it had been Bay Bay Bay), but I'm glad Ashley and Marcia are left in the competition because I like watching those 2. KiKi, not so much.
Blah blah blah, racism. Blah blah blah.
If Rikki was eliminating people based on their race, then she's going against the white girls. Two white girls went home in one episode! I don't wanna hear it man
I'm sorry but I absolutely love Farrah and Ashley, and when they leave the show will lose something, just like RoL did when Ashley left (at least for me).
In the premiere episode I was really frustrated with K. O.'s little speech, I didn't like her in RCOL, something about her just irks me. But her little " I don't have dignity, I don't have manners, and on top of that, I don't have class" was just like...wow...poor you. Lala was like 'wow it must be a challenge for K.O. every day', I just don't get that! If you don't have manners, then start having some. It's not like 'Don't burp at the table' is a secret, she just needs to put it to action.
brittaney star (has she always had the star at the end?) wears necklaces like a 12 year old wiccan. I think it's [mod edit] up to lock her in a bathroom, and she really didn't do anything...but sometimes when she talks i just wanna tell her to shut up. It's not like she's saying anything terrible, it's the way she says stuff! unreasonable of me.
I like how she's all over the RCOL girls, like they're her true friends, even though not one of them went up and unlocked the door.

I apologize, I did not consider it a spoiler because it was something that had been on the internet for general viewing for quite some time, and you never know when that could take place. If it was something like finding out the top two (like how I found out who the top two for AusNTM are) are, then yes, it would be...but I did not consider it a spoiler. I'm not just saying supertrailer, I'm also talking the big "This season, on (insert show here)" preview at the end of the first episode. For all we know, it can happen next week.Originally Posted by CrossingGuard;3459066;

I just wanna make it clear that my post was in no way meant to be racist, or rude to previous posters, when i said 'blah blah blah racism' I was agreeing with what MisterSSS was saying, I don't want to hear these girls say Rikki is racist because I really respect her. I was talking about how on the next episode they're going to play the race card. I hope I didn't offend anyone, it was never my intention

For some reason unknown to seemingly everyone, Courtney Love was at Sundance this year. She wasn't promoting a film or anything, so who who knows why she was there. But she was there, making news for saying that Gavin Rossdale is the brains behind Gwen Stefani's career, etc. She also performed there, apparently, and when she did she covered Jay Z's 99 Problems.
"It's so genius, it either sucks or it's genius," Love said prior to launching into the song.
After giving it a listen, I'm gonna go out a limb and say that it lands safely on the "sucks" side. I was kinda into it for the first minute or so but then I suddenly couldn't listen to it any more.
The irony in this is that Courtney Love would probably sue Jay-Z if he were to cover one of her songs. So there's that.

Thomas James(1593?-1635), Arctic explorer; author of the book 'The Strange and Dangerous Voyage of Captain Thomas James' (1633)
Sitter in 1 portrait
In 1631, Captain James sailed from Bristol to search for a north-west passage to Asia on behalf of the Bristol Society of Merchant Venturers. Pack ice prevented him from reaching further than 62 degrees north, but he and his crew over-wintered in Hudson Bay, sinking the boat to protect it from the ice. Returning safely, having lost only three men to accidents, James published a book about his experiences, which became a popular success. Coleridge adapted some of his imagery describing arctic conditions for use in his poem 'The Rime of the Ancient Mariner.'

Seeing the Real Beijing: The Hutongs – the Old Fashioned Way
For the last leg of our Trans-Siberian railway journey, we spent almost three days in Beijing. There we enjoyed seeing the city's modern architecture, soaring skyscrapers, colorful shopping districts and first-class hotels. Towards the end of our visit, our guide reminded us that we had one more urban adventure on the agenda – a visit to Beijing's Hutong district aboard a bicycle rickshaw. I wasn't sure what more there was to see in the city, so I looked at him …

Marvyille (Sports Overtime) -- When the 39th Annual Smoky Mountain Classic championship game arrived, two giants of the sport remained: Resmondo and Bell Corp. Sunday afternoon, Bell Corp proved to be the bigger giant, as the Tampa based softball team out-slugged Resmondo 29-13. The championship marked Bell Corp's 4th ever Smoky Mountain Classic title. The squad also won titles in 2005, 1992, and 1991.
Resmondo entered the game ranked number one in the slow pitch softball polls. The club was also the defending classic champs. But Bell Corp turned a 13-11 5th inning deficit into a 29-13 romp. Bell Corp's Brett Helmer was named the tournament's most valuable player.

Second Set. Eugenie Bouchard 4 Li Na 5. First set was won by Li Na 6-2
Here we go, people bludging at work on a Thursday, it's Li Na to serve for the semi-final of this Australian Open tennis tournament. She's been the better player, the Chinese gal, and will deserve it should she hold her nerve and serve.
Bouchard? Lot to like. Just been out-muscled, perhaps, a tad here, and was blown off the court in the first set, it would've lasted 24 minutes, thereabouts. It's been competitive since with both players breaking serve. But one fancies Li Na to end the Canuck's golden run.
It's 30-0 Li Na.
And now 30-15 after a groundstroke does not stay between the lines. Rules of tennis? Simple. Hit between the lines, over the net. Scoring method in tennis? Crazier than Kim Jong Il on the drink.
Something like it. It's 30-all.
And now 40-30. And what tennis people will call: Match Point. The big one: Match pooint. Not game, or break or set point.
Match point. It comes down to this...
and THIS - ha! - is the best rally of the match. Both players stretching to breaking point, sprinting round court, ball whacking off the net and flying into the air before Li Na, the Wuhan Typhoon, smokes a volley cross-court and into the final of the Australian Open. Good for her.
Well played, too, Eugenie The Genie Bouchard, we'll see more of you and your silly army.
And that, fans, is that. Thankyou linesman, ball boys, sundry officials, hot dog vendors, merchandising, PR, media, spectators, people bludging at work, my mate Henry, Vicky courtside and his supreme holiness the Dalai Lama a man considered a terrorist by Chinese politicians though the Dalai Lama wouldn't hurt a bullant that had sunk its little fangs into the fleshy part of his inner thigh because it's against his religion, that is that.
And bye for now.
Second Set. Eugenie Bouchard 3 Li Na 5. First set was won by Li Na 6-2
Bouchard, now, serving to stay in this match and, if she's very lucky, contest the final of the Australian Open tennis tournament.
Beccause it is not looking good for the wombat-loving Quebecois with the Army of Aussie kids with nothing better to do, they should be given jobs and haircuts, and put in the real army. I think.
30-all now. Bouchard serving. Still. They haven't changed the rules of tennis. And now it's 40-30. Oop - net cord and the ball spits out, and that's game Bouchard.
Na will serve for the semi-final.
Second Set. Eugenie Bouchard 3 Li Na 4. First set was won by Li Na 6-2
Li Na, now, to serve. Wonder is her nickname "Jude", after that song by the Beatles, Hey Jude, which goes, Naaa, naaaa naaaa Na-Na-Na-Naaa..etc, Hey-ey Jude."
Probably not. They didn't have the Beatles in China in when The Beatles were The Beatles, they just had ping pong and Forrest Gump playing ping-pong.
My I do go on.
Now - what is it ... 40-love Li Na! She's smoking poor old Genie Bouchard, whose "Army" aren't saying much according to Vicky Frost, courtside:
"Great relief that Bouchard took the long deuce game. Her supporters are being just vocal enough that they're fun - and not so vocal they're annoying. Bouchard does look a bit dejected in person. (More so now of course). Maybe that's why we're all backing her so much!"
So there you go. It's 5-3 Li Na. She will receive for the match, if you can do that. I say: you can.
Second Set. Eugenie Bouchard 3 Li Na 3. First set was won by Li Na 6-2
Bouchard to serve. Which she does. Several times. Occasionally poorly. And goes down 0-40. And then 0-50, or whatever's next - whatever, that's the game, another break in this see-sawing and quite silly second set, and that's 4-3 Li Na, Li Na to serve.
Second Set. Eugenie Bouchard 2 Li Na 3. First set was won by Li Na 6-2
Li Na to serve and take an Amazonian python-like stranglehold on this major semi-final.
But The Genie Bouchard is hanging on, and takes this game to deuce a time or two. Just 19, lot of game, something of a good sort, I'm predicting a Big Future. Ha. Oh yeah - Nostradamus. Y'think? I do. I think it.
Break point, Bouchard. And with a forthright smash that ends up in Row ZZ, Bouchard levels it 3-all in the second.
Second Set. Eugenie Bouchard 2 Li Na 2. First set was won by Li Na 6-2
Bouchard to serve. Oh - fine rally, and fine point won by Li Na, she clenches a fist and yells "C'mon!" in Chinese. She's up 0-30. And now 0-40 and three break points after a super cross-court double-fisted backhand ... what a shot. She wants this game like a sugar addict wants half-a-dozen cinnamon donuts.
Oh yeah - another fierce double-fisted cross-court backhand and that, fans, is game. It's 3-2 Na with a break.
Second Set. Eugenie Bouchard 2 Li Na 1. First set was won by Li Na 6-2
Li Na to serve. Evenly matched ... match here at Rod Laver, tennis types, the 31-year-old Li Na of the People's Republic of China versus the 19-year-old Quebecois Eugenie Bouchard from an actual Republic, of sorts, Canada. What is a republic, anyway? North Korea says they have one yet the magic of Google tells us that: "a republic is a state in which supreme power is held by the people and their elected representatives, and which has an elected or nominated president rather than a monarch."
Don't think North Korea really has that, nor for that matter China.
Whatevs - Bouchard has a break-point. But not for long. Li Na whacks a backhand cross-court that nips the paint and we go to deuce.
Nice serve Li Na ... called out ... and was - good call middle-line-judge. Regardless it's advantage Li Na. And then an ace, and she wins the game. It's 2-all in the second, and anyone's.
Second Set. Eugenie Bouchard 2 Li Na 0. First set was won by Li Na 6-2
Bouchard to serve with a break.
And serve she does, quite poorly, tightening up some, perhaps, and being immediately broken back mountain by the Wuhan Typhoon, Li Na. It's 2-1 Bouchard, second set.
Second Set. Eugenie Bouchard 1 Li Na 0. First set was won by Li Na 6-2
Li Na to serve, now, the People's Republic of China army behind her, a force which numbers a thousand million billion, something like it, a lot anyway, versus Bouchard's "Genie Army" which numbers a dozen dudes without girlfriends in white T-shirts, my they annoy me, could be getting old.
Double-fault from Li Na. It's 15-all. My she's fit, Li Na, she's like Ivan Drago describing Rocky in Rocky IV, He is like a piece of iron. Li Na's not like iron, but she is quite fit. Wish I was fit. But you'd have to exercise and eat sprouts, and aint nobody got time for that.
Two break points for Bouchard, who has game, it is plain.
Li Na's saved one of them. And another. Fine middle serve and dominant forehand. It's deuce. Li Na, the people's champion of China, they love her in China. Went there once, China. Good country.
Advantage Na. And now not advantage Na, but rather deuce. Who devised this system of scoring were they on medieval mushrooms?
Advantage Na. But no longer, again. After a fine rally of crisp hitting, Li Na just about shanks one out of court. Pressure play from Bouchard, Li Na knows she's got to hit a good one to beat this feisty Canuck.
Advantage Na. But no longer once again. Stick a fork in this game, it's done like a dinner. Something like it.
Advantage Na.But no longer once again, again. Bouchard can hit this fluffy green paint pellet, people. She hits them where they need to go at speed. Lot to like. It's deuce. And now ...
Advantage Bouchard. Well - she's a hard-head, The Genie Bouchard. She's moving nicely and hitting cleanly, and Li Na, good as she is, is under the pump, one fancies. And that be game, a break to the Canadian, strong stuff.
It's 2-blot Bouchard, second set.
Second Set. Eugenie Bouchard 0 Li Na 0. First set was won by Li Na 6-2
Bouchard serving but normal transmission resuming here in the second set, Li Na is hitting the ball really cleanly and pure, the ball's zinging off her strings like a fluffy green paintball pellet. Paintball pellet? I'm goin with it. It's deuce here in the first game of the second set, three terms singular to tennis and which make one wonder how they came up with them.
Break point, Li Na now ... that Bouchard holds off. Nice rally, both players hitting clean and crisp cross-court ground strokes and stretching each other, this is quality tennis. Deuce. And now advantage Bouchard, she won't go away this girl, she likes it here.
It's deuce again, now, after a fine forehand evades Bouchard.
Ace! Bouchard throws out a wide swinging stinger, a fine serve. Advantage her. And now game. Well done.
First Set. Eugenie Boucard 2 Li Na 5
And here's Li Na, serving for the set. She's dominated the match thus-far, winning the first five games and the vast majority of the points. It's been an ambush and no argument, but the Canuck of Quebec has steadied the ship and won the last two games.
Nice day in Melbourne. Give it 20 minutes it'll be dancing on ice by the Baltic Sea. But for the moment, perfect. It's 15-all.
Li Na's sent one upstairs to God ... and has been proven correct. It's set point Li Na.
Bouchard hangs in, takes it to deuce. She keeps on comin, The Genie. You could run over her with a Bobcat driven by Bobcat Ryan and she'd still get up and whack back a backhand.
Advantage Li Na, however. Set point again. And this time, it's set. that's the set. It's over. Whatever.
First Set. Eugenie Bouchard 1 Li Na 5.
Bouchard to serve, she's down by plenty, but fighting it out, duking it out. She's quickly to 30-0. And now 40-0. And now 40-15 after Li Na smokes a floating dud volley mid-court and hard.
But there's the game, a Li Na return drifts long. It's 5-2 China, China to serve.
First Set. Eugenie Bouchard 0 Li Na 5
Fightback from the Canadian, she gets it to 0-40 and three break points. But my - she's down 5-blot. The game's going fast. If Bouchard was a cannier, older and more cynical type she might call a time-out for injury to try and slow the rampant momentum of the Wuhan Typhoon, Li Na.
But she's won herself a game without resorting to said tactics, and the soldiers of this man's Genie Army sing her a song. Which is nice.
First Set. Eugenie Bouchard 0 Li Na 4.
Bouchard to serve. But she's being blown away. Wow. Li Na is eating this semi-final, eating it like a birthday pavlova. She's hitting super-solid ground strokes that are stretching her opponent into submission. It's about to be 5-love, and she'll be serving for the set, a set that's taken … by my calculations … not very long at all. Maybe 20 minutes? Smokin. It's 5-love Li Na. Wow.
First Set. Eugenie Bouchard 0 Li Na 3.
Li Na to serve. She's looking good. Genie's Army thankfully silent, they have little choice, it appears, as they've been taken out the back by security and subjected to the stings of many bees. That or their girl's now down 4-love and they're not feeling the love. Li Na doesn't have an army unless you count the people's republic of China army. Which I reckon I will. It's 4-blot Li Na. The Canadian gal's been ambushed. Li Na is hot like the sun.
First Set. Eugenie Bouchard 0 Li Na 2.
Bouchard serving now to stay in this set if not match, it's quite early, she's dressed in an olive green singlet and grey skirt, and goes down 0-40 early against a rampant-early Li Na. Four break points? It proves plenty for Li Na who smokes Bouchard's second-serve back at the Canadian, and it proves un-get-backable. That's a double-break for the Wuhan Wonder and it's 3-blot Na.
First Set. Eugenie Bouchard 0 Li Na 1.
Li Na to serve after an early break. She's wearing a pink visor and white singlet, pink skirt and white shoes and is apparently one of the richest sports folk in the world, wonder how much she has to give the people in the People's Republic of China, would've been heaps a few years ago when everyone lived agrarian style on farms, but it's changed a bit China, and they're into money and ipads and tennis shoes, and good luck to them, there are lots.
Li Na holds serve, and it's 2-blot the girl from Wuhan.
First Set. Eugenie Bouchard 0 Li Na 0.
And we're away on the darkish blue Rebound Ace of Rod Laver, and it's a fine day here in Melbourne Town.
Serving? Bouchard. And after a series of short baseline rallies we have a very-early break. Li Na's won each of the four points available in tennis's silly scoring system and Bouchard's won none, or love, as they, for no reason.
Players have tossed (a coin) and Li Na has won the toss and will serve. And as the players warm up now it gives me a chance to relay a story of apres-golf at Manly Golf Club yesterday. This is what happened: Post-round, enjoying a delicious schooner or two of Coopers Pale Ale I fell into conversation with a couple of types watching the tennis on the television. One of them, Mick, opines, "Tennis? Hate tennis. Low game." I say to him, "Have you seen it live? Have you seen a major live? It's bloody good." This Mick's mate laughs, "Ha - seen one? Yeah, up close!" Mick then tells me he was on the ATP Tour for 10 years from 1997, played at Wimbledon, Flushing Meadow and partnered with tennis crazy man Jeff Tarango to reach the French Open semi-finals in doubles in 2001. His name's Michael Hill like the jeweller, and he's a nice fellah and no doubt sick of being known less than a bloody jeweller. And good day to you, sir, if you're reading, hope you are enjoying the tennis.
We're about to start here. It's Li Na to receive.
Greetings people and welcome to Rod Laver (Arena) in Magical Melbourne Town for the Big One: wombat-loving Canadian teen Eugenie "The Genie" Bouchard versus the greatest tennis player to emerge from the mighty (if erroneously-named) People's Republic of China, the dual-syllable, double-fisted, net-harrier, Li Na. Should be a good one.
Bouchard lost the first set against Australia's Casey Dellacqua before wiping the floor clean with the brave, out-gunned girl from Woodvale in WA. Next match, a quarter-final, she out-lasted and eventually out-played fellow spunkerella, Ana Ivanovic.
Li Na? Has smoked a series of nuffies, losing just one set and not a heck of a lot of games in her tilt at this year's Australian Open championship. She's 31-years-old (Bouchard is 19) but is fitter than a trout into body-building, protein supplements and general good-health. That fit. Fitter than a Chinese Mallee bull.
So yes. Should be a good one. Back in 5 minutes or to get into it.
Matt will be here shortly, in the meantime here's news on Roger Federer and Andy Murray's clash:
So, Andy Murray is out, Roger Federer looks reborn and Rafael Nadal is next … and he looks worried. There is no denying the staying power of the established elite as the 2014 Australian Open builds towards another semi-final clash between the two players who have defined the modern era, Federer and Nadal.
Nobody can be sure if these two are capable of recapturing the intensity of some of their epic encounters among the 32 matches they have played against each other since 2004, because Federer – a four set-winner against Murray on Wednesday – is 32 and Nadal's serving hand has a blister as red and raw as a lobster.
Nadal – 22-10 up on Federer overall – hit through the discomfort of the ripped skin on the palm of his left hand to beat the classy Grigor Dimitrov 3-6, 7-6, 7-6, 6-2 and revealed: "With the tape [on his wound] I can lose the racket when I am serving. That's a terrible feeling, because you are not able to accelerate at the right moment. That's a big deal. When you lose confidence in that one important shot, you are not able to play with calm. If it does not improve, I won't have a chance to play in the final."

A Little About Me:
Here is where I'm supposed to write interesting facts about myself, what makes me write and all that jazz. Where to begin...
I'm a female that lives in the great north of Canada and autumn is my favourite season of the year. I'm in highschool and I try to take anything that revolves around the arts. I'm smart but very lazy and tend to leave everything to the last minute. I lead a pretty normal life; go to school, come home and complete anything that needs to be done. My life is run by friends. What I mean by that, is that friends are the most important people in my life. I'm not very close with my family so friends are the ones that keep me going. They're quite the weird bunch but I'm not much different. I'm not very good at saying what I feel and 'falling in love' is something I find hard to believe. Not saying it isn't there, just not for me. I usually keep what I feel inside and those who know me best understand me without having me to voice it. I'm very cynical and blunt but hey, I call 'em like I see 'em. I'm not angered easily but those who continue to make the same mistakes really get on my nerves. I struggle a lot to not be distant with those around me. I'm a very closed off person so it's difficult for me to get across to others. I am very opinionated and stand strong to my beliefs. Although, I am open-minded and always look at life or different problems in ways most people would find strange for my age. There are quite a number of people who say I am mature for my age but I think it's just common sense that leads me to believe in the things I do.
The reason I write is to get all the fantasies I have out of my head. It acts as my outlet to live a life I know I'll never be able to. The supernatural is my favourite to write about due to the fact I refuse to think that humans are the only 'intelligent' life forms that litter this dying planet. People are just too ignorant and unwilling to accept that there could be something out there. I'm not saying that Vampyres and Lycans actually exist but there has to be more than just us. A lot of my work comes out really dark at times and very angsty but I try my best to avoid that. I haven't posted most of my stories up here but I haven't gotten around to fixing them up and at the moment I just want to get ones I've started finished. Forbidden lust, love or sex is something I find really intriguing. Fetishes are also fun to work with and finding new ones and playing with them can be interesting as well. I kind of sound like I'm talking about myself here but I do mean my stories. I do write slash and any other combinations that could possibly include that genre. I try not to go over the top mind you; writing situation that are impossible and try to go about things realistically. Other than that, I think I'm done. If you have any questions you wish to ask, send me a message. If it's appropriate and I feel comfortable enough to answer, I will.
Also, if anyone is in need of a beta-reader, I would happy to help out. I love getting to help others improve their stories, so just send me a message and I'll have you send it over to me.
