| | CHANELLE HAYES PLANS TO MOVE TO AMERICA | | 2008-07-18 05:28:59 | | Having failed to bother the charts, mainstream television or even late night adverts for ’sexy text chat’ Chanelle has decided to follow her idol Posh Spice and move to America.In a sudden flash of self awareness (probably just after she’d been dry humped by a hand puppet for that new MTV show) she realised that with the new Big Brother series about to start there will be a whole new line of desperate wannabees to replace her. | | By: All wallpaper | | |

| | Over 150 Banks will be closed in America | | 2008-07-14 20:36:00 | | According to report from The New York Times, as many as 150 America banks would be closed over the next 12 to 18 months. For sure, this would force a big impact to the world economy since the America still holding as big leader in the world market. The damage to Asia would very much depend on how far we could absorb the impact.Here's the report captured from The New York Times,"As home prices continue to decline and loan defaults mount, federal regulators are bracing for dozens of American banks to fail over the next year.But after a large mortgage lender in California collapsed late Friday, Wall Street analysts began posing two crucial questions: Just how many banks might falter? And, more urgently, which one could be next?The nation’s banks are in far less danger than they were in the late 1980s and early 1990s, when more than 1,000 federally insured institutions went under during the savings-and-loan crisis.

| New VW Beetle could be North America's up! variant? | | 2008-07-11 21:21:00 | | The VW Beetle is a cult favorite here in the States, but in Germany, it's not so well loved. That could be part of the reason why Volkswagen has been slow to produce a successor to the new Beetle, but word from Motor Trend is that two models could be coming shortly. The first Beetle will be based off the Gen-VI Golf and will hit production in 2010 or 2011. Word out of Wolfsburg is that a second Beetle could be on the way as well, but this one would be based off the up! minicar. That would give VW a sub-brand Beetle lineup, kind of like what Toyota has with Scion, but with an eye on MINI buyers. The smaller up!-based Beetle would also be more true to the original Bug, which was a cheap and efficient "People's Car" with the engine out back (supposedly). Quality problems and a weak dollar have lead VW to struggle in the U.S. over the past few years, but an inexpensive, reliable car with top-notch fuel economy would go a long way toward reversing that trend.

| | Destroying America (one step at a time) | | 2008-07-09 23:26:00 | | Congratulations America. Really, well done. This is the man you voted in twice. How does it feel being fisted by your own government? Like warm apple pie perhaps?And before anyone gets in a tiffy over this rather rudely placed comment: I'm referring to those that voted for Bush not once, but two times, passing on Al Gore and John Kerry, the first of which was by far the better choice and the second of which was still better than the mentally handicapped nitwit that sits in office now, twiddling his thumbs as he contemplates what else he can do to screw this country.(I have no intention to make this blog a political one, but I just can't shut up about this. This is too much and I'm showing considerable restraint right now.)(Don't click the read more, there isn't any more after this!)

| | Most Popular Baby Names In America | | 2008-07-09 05:56:00 | | The 1960s brought us baby names such as April and Sunshine, and naming new Americans has never been the same.So when Sunday Rose Kidman Urban was born this week, the baby of an actress and a country western singer, news of her distinctive name created only a small stir. While many parents still hew to traditional names, U.S. babies now are tagged with an ever-increasing diversity of names for which the inspirations range from the calendar to languages from afar.The top 10 baby names from 1950 look nothing like today.

I wish I had somebody to help me sing this The Pitchers
For the Cubs, it's the return of the- (oh, wait. No, wait. He didn't just do what I think he did, did he?) Beast, Carlos Zambrano!
Welcome Back, Big Guy
Before he was put on the DL for shoulder discomfort, Carlos was the anchor of the rotation and had an ERA of 3.13. He'll be on a pretty strict pitch-count for this start and his next. The way he pitches, I'll be happy with a great five innings.
Carlos is a Gemini, and though I can't find a horoscope from the Onion in any of the past few weeks, here's his from a long time ago.
A team of surgeons will be forced to amputate your leg this Thursday in order to keep themselves from getting bored.
For the St. Louis Cardinals, it'll be righty Braden Looper. In his last two starts, Looper let up 13 hits, 5 walks, and 9 runs in 9.1 innings pitched. He's at a low while the Cubs' bats are just coming alive.
Braden Looper is currently in post-production. | | By: A League of Her Own | | |

| | Meanwhile, in South America... | | 2008-07-02 20:18:00 | | ...Ecuador's LDU Quito won the Copa Libertadores by virtue of a penalty kick shoot-out in Wednesday night's second leg of the finale. The Copa Libertadores, for the uninitiated, is almost certainly the second biggest club competition on the planet. Unfortunately, it doesn't get much coverage outside of South/Latin America. None of it was broadcast in English in the U.S. and I don't think European TV covered it at all (somewhat understanding considering the games are played in the middle of the night there). With all the attention the just-completed Euro championships received stateside (free TV coverage for the first time since, well, ever) you'd figure this might be about to change. I wouldn't hold my breath on that one but that's just me.A shame, because there was some serious drama. And goals. Lots of them. Ten in two matches, to be exact. North American audiences surely would have appreciated this, along with the rough play and "emotion" U.S. sportscasters love to speak about. Bec | | By: The Soccer Source | | |

| | Lieberman: America Likely To Be Attacked In 2009 | | 2008-07-02 11:30:00 | | And I would have to say, I agree with him. I do believe that there is a high probability that one of the MANY groups/ sects/ factions/ organizations/ etc., that hate us (and there are plenty,) will try to do something, here, on U.S. soil. And as Lieberman said, it will most likely happen early in the next presidents term.It does make a considerable amount of sense. And it does raise a very interesting question; That is, who do we want in charge when (if) something does in fact happen? I for one, will not be particularly thrilled if that person is Obama. Even though Ret. Gen. Wesley Clark boisterously stated that riding in a jet doesn't give the command experience required for presidency. Having actually "served" in the Armed Forces is vastly more experience than Obama has.What doubly frightens me when it comes to the thought of another attack on America, is that Obama has mentioned "dialogue" with some of these nations that hate us.

| | | America's Dirty Oil Mayors | | 2008-06-25 20:56:00 | | History has shown an unfortunate flaw of the Canadian mindset that says that when the oil-rich, good-ol’-boy Western Canadian province of Alberta enjoys a lucrative economic boom, the rest of Canada spends its time and energy devising different methods to get their grubby hands on the cash, the province’s economy be damned.Ottawa’s attempts at our wealth aren’t new, and Albertans have long memories. Pierre Trudeau effectively killed Alberta’s economy for more than a decade with his memorable attempt, sold as ‘necessary to stabilize prices’.The resulting economic collapse still stings in the memory of our citizens. One mention of the National Energy Program (N.E.P.) is as offensive to some patriotic Albertans as the term Nazi is to some older generation Germans.The latest attack on Alberta’s current wave of prosperity is something of an old nemesis dressed in a new costume.

| | Move America Forward Web-A-Thon For The Troops: June 26th 2008 | | 2008-06-25 10:15:00 | | With our "fair and balanced" media striving to provide us with the worst news they can find from Iraq (that being very little) these days, Move America Forward is trying to generate some positive history. And what they have planned is unlikely to generate any enthusiasm amongst the lefties who "claim" to support our troops. Mostly because it would be a major morale booster for our troops, serving in an ever increasingly improving environment. That being, Iraq and Afghanistan.
(Hint, hint, good news from Iraq an Afghanistan doesn't make the news as you may have noticed.)
But for the rest of us who really do give a damn, this will be a wonderful opportunity to show our brave men and women, who don a uniform and put their lives on the line on our behalf everyday, that we really do care.

| | The Los Lunas Decalogue Stone - How In The World Did The Ten Commandments Get To America Before Columbus Did? | | 2008-06-24 14:03:00 | | The Los Lunas Decalogue Stone is a huge boulder on the side of Hidden Mountain, near Los Lunas, New Mexico, approximately 35 miles south of Albuquerque. This stone shows the Ten Commandments written in ancient paleo-Hebrew script.In 1996, Professor James D. Tabor of the University of North Carolina - Charlotte, interviewed the late Professor Frank Hibben (1910-2002), a retired University of New Mexico archaeologist, "who is convinced that the inscription is ancient and thus authentic. He reports that he first saw the text in 1933. At the time it was covered with lichen and patination and was hardly visible. He was taken to the site by a guide who had seen it as a boy, back in the 1880s."The scholars who have studied this stone date it anywhere from 500 to 3000 years old. That almost assuredly means it pre-dates the arrival of Christopher Columbus to America.So how in the world did a copy of the Ten Commandments in ancient Hebrew get to North America before Christopher Columbus arrived? | | By: Shattered Paradigm | | |

The SUVs won't be available until the fall, but Daimler released a slew of new photos of the large diesels today and a detailed release reminding us about these U.S. Bin 5 standard compliant vehicles. In case you were curious, the photos show that these SUVs can pull horses, cross long brldges, and park in front of large houses. We'll see if these decent-but-not-great mileage SUVs (the GL 320 BlueTEC gets 25mpg) can convince customers to pull the trigger with diesel fuel running around $5 a gallon.

| | | New Survey Finds That 57 Percent Of Evangelical Christians In America Believe That "Many Religions Can Lead To Eternal Life" | | 2008-06-23 14:04:00 | | A stunning new survey by the Pew Research Center's Forum on Religion & Public Life finds that 57 percent of evangelical Christians in America believe that "many religions can lead to eternal life".This shocking study reveals what many Christians have known for quite some time: apostasy among "evangelical Christians" is spreading, and it is spreading rapidly.Evangelical Christians are supposed to be those who follow the teachings of the Bible the closest. But this survey shows that even a majority of them do not even believe in the most fundamental precepts of the Christians faith.For example, John 14:6 says that following:John 14:6 --Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life.

| | YouTube Video On Our Financial Collapse: Foreclosures, Subprime Mortgages & America's New Tent Cities | | 2008-06-23 11:24:00 | | The video below shows how many Americans are now living in tents or their cars because of the housing collapse.It is time that we all face the shocking reality that our economy is starting to come apart like a 20 dollar suit.This video brings to mind some things about our financial condition that I have written previously:For decades we have lived like kings and queens.....enjoying the biggest party the world has ever known.....but financed with ever increasing amounts of debt.Now it looks like the party is over.Once upon a time, the United States was the biggest creditor in the world. But those days are long gone. Now we are the biggest debtor nation to ever exist on the earth.We were the richest nation in the world, but that was not enough for us. We always had to have a bigger car, a bigger house and an endless supply of "stuff". So our government piled up debt, our companies gorged on debt, and we made using credit cards into a national pastime.Spending our own money wasn't even en | | By: Shattered Paradigm | | |

| | | blinded by the Obamafication of America | | 2008-06-19 21:54:21 | | Now I know most of yawl are in awe of the prospect of the first African American President in the history of these United States of America, and as well you should be. In fact it is nice seeing people being caught up in history when so many of us don’t know much about the subject. However, with the Obamafication (my own word) of America, there has been a tendency to look away from other things that are important and are historical in their own right. In fact, things that may make his presidency, if he wins in November, even more problematic and deterministic with regards to his success or failure. This whole campaign started with hoop-la. By that I mean we were in a recession and we were engaged in war on three fronts (Afghanistan, Iraq and Somalia). Yep, Somalia, but we wouldn’t know because we get our information from media magnates that we never question or even on our own, search to find out what is really going on in our world.

| | | Sweden Apparently Two Months Behind North America | | 2008-06-18 13:36:58 | |
via i.eurosport.se
Last week a Swedish newspaper reported that the Colorado Avalanche had signed hockey agitator Per Ledin to a one-year, one-way contract. But, six days later, no North American news outlet has confirmed this report, and there has been no mention whatsoever of Ledin in the Denver Post, the Rocky Mountain News, nor the official Avalanche site.
Nothing. Not a peep.
Call me crazy, but I'm starting to think that Sweden's April Fool's Day falls on June 12th.
Until I read or hear otherwise, I'm going to declare this report to be complete bunk. As to how or why a news outlet would report something like this, I have no clue. Granted, I'm no expert on journalism standards in Europe, but this seems really strange. I mean, we have entire cable news networks devoted to promoting false information, but you'd think those elitist Europeans---what with their universal health care and month-long vacations---would be above something like this...

| | The Dumbing Down of America continues: Survey reveals geographical ignorance | | 2008-06-17 12:48:01 | | It would appear that more and more young Americans know less and less about the world they inhabit. A recent survey has revealed that the average 18 to 24 year old could only answer 54% of questions correctly. This is indeed a depressing and worrying figure.Over 60% of Americans aged 18-24 couldn’t find Iraq on a map of the Middle East (yes, a map of the Middle East… not even a map of the world) in a 2006 survey (that’s three years after the start of the war). The survey found a few other interesting facts:Only 50% think that map-reading skills are “absolutely essential” Despite that fact, 75% couldn’t find Iran or Israel on the same Middle East map. 65% couldn’t find the UK on a world map. 88% couldn’t find Afghanistan on a map of Asia. Half of people couldn’t find India or Japan on the Asian map 70% couldn’t find North Korea, and only 37% knew that the North/South Korea border is more heavily fortified than the US/Mexico border and the China/Russia border (both of | | By: Tails of Terror from the Black Lagoon! | | |
| | Midwest Floods Devastate The Farms Of America's Breadbasket As The Global Food Crisis Deepens | | 2008-06-17 12:17:00 | | The New York Times had an excellent article on the Midwest floods and how they are playing havoc with America's breadbasket at a time when the world food crisis is getting worse by the day.The article contains these stunning statements by one Iowa farmer:“In the lean years, we had beautiful crops but they weren’t worth much,” Mr. Timmerman said, surveying his farm, which his family has tended since his great-great-grandfather. “Now, with commodity prices sky high, mother nature is throwing us all these curve balls. I’m 42 years old and these are by far the poorest crops I’ve ever seen.”These floods seem to be coming at the worst possible time.

He said: �We were chatting about our last fishing trip. It was one in the morning.I began to film a bit with my mobile phone while the others were chatting and joking."Suddenly we heard something - a weird noise as if someone was throwing stones. "We looked to one side and saw that the grass was moving. To begin with we thought it was a dog but when we saw this gnome-like figure begin to emerge we were really afraid."Jose added that other locals had come forward to say they had spotted the gnome.

| | Beautiful Places in America That You Should Visit | | 2008-06-12 20:01:00 | | 1. Red Rock Country (Sedona, Ariz.)Ever since the early days of movies, when Hollywood has wanted to show the unique beauty of the West, it has gone to Sedona, a place that looks like nowhere else. Beginning with The Call of the Canyon in 1923, some hundred movies and TV shows have been filmed in and around town. We fell under Sedona's spell, too, and while debating our No. 1 spot kept returning to it for the same reasons Hollywood does: The area's telegenic canyons, wind-shaped buttes and dramatic sandstone towers embody the rugged character of the West -- and the central place that character holds in our national identity. There's a timelessness about these ancient rocks that fires the imagination of all who encounter them. Some 11,000 years before film cameras discovered Sedona, American Indians settled the area. Homesteaders, artists and, most recently, New Age spiritualists have followed. Many cultures and agendas abound, but there's really only one attraction: the sheer, exuberan | | By: Nice Reading | | |

| | Selling America through effective Public Diplomacy | | 2008-06-11 16:30:00 | | ... "But just how effective is U.S. public diplomacy? Critics have suggested that it is simply a packaged ad campaign; a critique that has some merit ..." In an era where both the divisions among us and the source of international friction is increasingly cultural, the maintenance of U.S. leadership rests more or less as much on ideas and there promotion, as it does on military and economic strength. Anti-Americanism is real, and guarantees that no matter how hard America works to convey a positive image through diplomacy, its status as the paradigm of civilized modernity is diminished. Besides, liberal leftist media ensures that when America confronts other nations even for perfectly valid and righteous reason, the resultant and often-graphical dissemination of disinformation works to erode any legitimacy, but that’s another story.

| | America's crisis: foreclosures driven by bad lending practices | | 2008-06-11 03:08:00 | | RealtyTrac Inc., an information firm that tracks real estate, concluded through recent analysis that the US has witnessed 650,000 foreclosures in 2008's first quarter - from January to April. Reportedly, this is a 112% foreclosure increase and it shows no signs of stopping. RealtyTrac demonstrates that April had the highest monthly total so far with over 243,300 properties in various stages of foreclosure.RealtyTrac statistics leave Nevada as the hardest hit state with 1 out of ever 146 homes foreclosing - at almost 4 times the national rate. California is second with 1 out of every 204 households facing foreclosure, with bank repossessions leaping 145% in April compared to one year prior, and Arizona a close third with 1 out of every 224.
