President Barack Obama Watching The USA Vs Germany Game Aboard Air Force One Posted: 26 Jun 2014 08:08 PM PDT The President of the United States of America, Barack Obama saw the World Cup game between the United States men's national soccer team and Germany aboard his Air Force One while he was en-route Minneapolis. While people like Ann Coulter keep ranting rubbish about the beautiful game, fans of soccer keep winning. I pray the US team goes far in the world cup. The United States lost 1-0, courtesy of a Thomas Muller strike, but still progressed to the second round of the World Cup where they will meet Belgium. See another picture below... | ||
Ann Coulter Bashes The World Cup, Says Soccer is a Sign of America's Moral Decay Due to Immigration Posted: 26 Jun 2014 07:32 PM PDT Ann Coulter is an American republican, she loves being controversial, and her favorite past-time is goading liberals and bashing minorities - now the list includes football, or soccer as it is known in the United States. The conservative columnist took the time yesterday to air her views on the apparently increasing popularity of soccer in America since the 2014 FIFA World Cup. And she chose the morning of the U.S. Men's National Team's most important match of the mundial to stir up the waters. Her title? "America's Favorite National Pastime: Hating Soccer." Ann Coulter complains about everything in the beautiful game, from the length to the rule about not using hands, to the team play required. Everything about soccer according to her is dirty and disgusting. She rounds off by saying soccer is only enjoyed by immigrants and real Americans don't watch soccer. Check out excerpts from her commentarys below I've held off on writing about soccer for a decade -- or about the length of the average soccer game -- so as not to offend anyone. But enough is enough. Any growing interest in soccer can only be a sign of the nation's moral decay. If Michael Jackson had treated his chronic insomnia with a tape of Argentina vs. Brazil instead of Propofol, he'd still be alive, although bored. In hockey, there are three or four fights a game -- and it's not a stroll on beach to be on ice with a puck flying around at 100 miles per hour. After a football game, ambulances carry off the wounded. After a soccer game, every player gets a ribbon and a juice box. | ||
Matt Lauer Asks Mary Barra If She Can Run General Motors and Be a Good Mom Too Posted: 26 Jun 2014 05:54 PM PDT In an interview for the TODAY Show, Matt Lauer asked the CEO of General Motors, Mary Barra, if it was possible for her to run a major company and be a good mom at the same time. I'm kind of disappointed in Matt Lauer. Like, really? Did he have no better questions to ask the CEO of General Motors than whether she thinks she's a good mom? There are recalls and failures in leadership at GM and we're emphasizing on the CEO's parenting skills? Maybe we should ask Matt Lauer, are you able to do your job as anchor of the TODAY show at NBC and be a good dad? Parenting should be the last thing a serious news anchor like Matt Lauer should ask someone when they have come on air for an interview about their professional life! Below are some excerpts from the transcript of that part of the interview: LAUER: You're a mom, I mentioned, two kids. You said in an interview not long ago that your kids told you they're going to hold you accountable for one job and that is being a mom. Matt Lauer also asked her if she thinks the speculations that GM needed a maternal figure to guide the company through a rocky time, and that is the reason she got the job rather than her 30 years of experience at the company. LAUER: I want to tread lightly here. You've heard this, you heard it in Congress. You got this job because you're hugely qualified, 30 years in this company a variety of different jobs. But some people are speculating that you also got this job because as a woman and as a mom because people within General Motors knew this company was in for a very tough time and as a woman and a mom you could present a softer image and softer face for this company as it goes through this horrible episode. Does it make sense or does it make you bristle? I like how she handled herself in answering Matt Lauer, but those questions were totally uncalled for. | ||

Woman Gives Birth After 14 Years Pregnancy - Some Say Miracle, I Call Foul! Posted: 26 Jun 2014 12:01 PM PDT Mercy James of Lagos is said to have delivered a baby girl after 14 years of being pregnant, and she has named the baby 'her miracle'. Mercy will be a single parent, since the man who supposedly got her pregnant 14 years ago abandoned her a year after she said she first got pregnant. In her story, Mercy said she gave birth to the baby at a Celestial Church, and admitted that she was unconscious for over 15 minutes during labor, and it was only after she was revived the midwife handed the baby to her. If this is not proof enough for those who believe this story how much of a scam it is, then I don't know what else to say. Oh yes, I know what to add. Do a DNA test! Read on for the Vanguard report of Mercy's testimony and the support from the midwife and one of Mercy's friends who took her to the church but also did not witness the birth. Read another Scam - Wombless Woman Gives Birth Mercy James narates the genesis of her ordeal; "When I first took in, I knew that I was pregnant with signs and test that confirmed that I was. Four months later, I went to hospital for another test, the result showed that I wasn't pregnant, but had fibroid. The midwife at the Celestial Church of Christ, Kadoso Parish, Ajegunle where Mercy gave birth confirmed the development, especially the role she played. The woman who simply gave her name as Mrs Ajetima said: "She was pregnant for 14 years and was unable to give birth during this period. Then on Saturday around 6:30am I saw two persons carrying her to this place. When she came inside, I laid her down and asked one of my daughters to examine her, after the examination, I found out that it was a baby that was about coming out and not worms. I asked her to push and she refused. My daughter gave her a hard slap on her laps since she refused to push. Also affirming the happy development, Mercy's closest friend, Odunayo Odeyemi said: "I have known mercy for over nine years now. I met her with the pregnancy . In fact, she did not know that she was pregnant. I followed her to many places but her problems kept on increasing. Merely looking at Mercy then before she gave birth, you will notice that she wasn't okay. I kept advising her to have faith in God because I had experienced the same thing. I was pregnant for three years and three months and God delivered me. On the father of Baby Miracle, Mercy informed that they got separated on account of the ordeal that attended her pregnancy. "Friday is the name of my baby's father. Actually, we are not married. He just proposed to me and I became pregnant for him. He knew about the pregnancy. He always gave me money for tests and scans but he got tired and left me after waiting for me for over a year without seeing any sign of a baby. I have no option than to go my own way," | ||
George Clooney Gets Two New Protection Laws in Lake Como Ahead of Marriage to Amal Alamuddin Posted: 26 Jun 2014 10:02 AM PDT George Clooney and his lawyer fiancé Amal Alamuddin, are planning their wedding this fall, and it appears he wants his big day to be very exclusive. The very private actor and humanitarian activist does not want fans or paparazzi to spoil his big day so he has been able to get the council of Lagilo to approve new laws meaning that anyone who trespasses around his home in Lake Como, Italy, or is an uninvited guest will be fined heavily. The couple have been notoriously private since they got engaged last April and are rarely photographed together. It is expected that Goerge Clooney and Amal Alamuddin will have a small wedding in September. According to the mayor of Lagilo no official request has been made for the nuptials to be held in Lagilo but they are ready for any kind of request. The new restrictions which were announced on July 21 will prevent anyone from stopping on both the sides of the road outside his villa and also prevents everyone from getting closer to the water outside his house 24 hours a day. The fines are quite huge as anyone swimming or sailing on the lake side of the property within 100 meters of George Clooney's property can be fined up to 500 euros. George Clooney got the laws approved over the weekend just before Amal Alamuddin's mother Baria Alamuddin, and his mother in law to be, visited the couple and stayed at their Como home away from the eyes of the public and the paparazzi. It sure is good to have money and connections :) | ||

Magazine Covers - Rihanna on Harper's Bazaar Arabia is Glam and Demure At The Same Time Posted: 26 Jun 2014 08:37 AM PDT Rihanna has turned Arabic, lol... maybe not. But she is on the cover of Harper's Bazaar Arabia and as they say, when in Rome, I mean Arabia, you do like them. Just a few weeks since Rihanna's controversial, sheer gown at the CFDA Awards [read here], the singer is very conservative for the July cover of Harper's Bazaar Arabia, and the only sheer material is the veil covering her face. The pop star poses in sequins, hoods and head wraps for the glamorous spread which she shared on her Twitter earlier today. One shot in particular, showcases her in a glittering black bodysuit that practically covers her from head to toe, and she has on a face mask too. | ||

Public Sex is Legal In Amsterdam and Copenhagen Parks, But Will You Do It? Posted: 26 Jun 2014 07:48 AM PDT So, a couple of public parks in Europe allow sex in them. The rules at the Amsterdam Vondelpark says it's totally ok to have sex in the park as long as it is in the evening or night time when children are less likely to be there. Also, you have to pick up your condoms. That is assuming you use one The Dutch police are in full support of the legalization and are actually encouraging other parks to follow suit so as to make their work easier. They say people already do it and arresting mating couples is just too embarrassing and unnecessary. The same as another park in Copenhagen (Denmark) with the following rules. "Sex in the park is allowed. But show some consideration. So would you have sex in such a park or any other public place? Personally I think what happens in a bedroom should stay in a bedroom, or at least within your home or property. I don't want to think about seeing other people having sex in public places. Maybe I won't mind. I can always look away, not like I don't see it on TV or movies. Thats just me. Some might say though that public parks should not legalize sex because they may want to visit with their children, and certainly you don't want to traumatize minors with the sight of the "do". What do you think? Comment and Vote. | ||
Rihanna Will Not Be Happy as Kevin-Prince Boateng Suspended and Sent Home From The World Cup Posted: 26 Jun 2014 06:51 AM PDT Rihanna had her eyes on Kevin-Prince Boateng during the Ghanaian -USA world cup match last week, when she said she was team Ghana because of him, "Da Bae doe! I might have to b team Ghana on this one idc idc idc," she had tweeted. Unfortunately, Kevin-Prince Boateng, and Sulley Muntari have been suspended indefinitely for disciplinary reasons, and sent home immediately from Brazil. They will not be playing the next Ghana match with Portugal. Boateng was suspended indefinitely for what the FA said were "vulgar verbal insults" aimed at the team's coach, James Appiah, during training. Boateng confirmed he had been sent home, but denied the charges, telling the German magazine Sport-Bild: "Sulley Muntari and I were just joking around, and the coach stopped the session and sent us back to the changing room. "Afterwards I went to him and asked what he had against me and he started yelling. He insulted me. There were words like: 'Fuck off.'" Boateng said he "absolutely accepts" his suspension, but added: "No one should think I insulted the coach. I'm travelling now, and I wish my colleagues all the best for the match against Portugal." Ghana's FA also released a statement to confirm that Muntari had been suspended for what they alleged was "an unprovoked physical attack" on an FA executive committee member. The statement read: "The Ghana Football Association has suspended Sulley Ali Muntari indefinitely from the Black Stars with immediate effect. "The decision was taken in the wake of his unprovoked physical attack on an Executive Committee member of the GFA and a management member of the Black Stars, Mr Moses Armah on Tuesday 24 June, 2014 during a meeting. Muntari's accreditation for the 2014 World Cup has been withdrawn with immediate effect." The row over player fees had led to players refusing to train on Tuesday, prompting Ghana's president, John Dramani Mahama, to send a plane containing £1.76m to Brasília for the players to share. The deputy sports minister, Joseph Yamin, told Ghanaian radio station Citi FM that the players had "insisted" on cash payments, adding: "The government had to mobilise the money and a chartered flight to Brazil." Appiah admitted ahead of the Portugal game that he had been suffering sleepless nights over the disputes within the squad, saying: "I can't even close my eyes." Via - Guardian UK | ||
Looking For the World's Biggest Boobs - There's a Map For That Posted: 26 Jun 2014 04:05 AM PDT Do you ever wonder which country has women with the world's biggest boobs? You won't be too wrong if you say America, after all Norma Stitz, the woman with the world's biggest natural breasts is from Atlanta, Georgia. Maxi Mounds, the lady above with Guinness world record for largest breasts in 2005 is also an American. So does America have the world's biggest boobs? Well, there's a map to give us a scientific answer. Generally, the women in the U.S. have mostly D-cup breasts, along with South American countries, Venezuela and Colombia. Not to my surprise the smallest breatsts, apparently those found on women in Asia, particularly in East Asia. So now you know. What I did not foresee was that women in Africa, including Nigeria were also classed in the A-Cup group, the smallest sized breasts. I'm beginning to think this map is biased. In another surprise, the map gives the honors for the world's biggest boobs to the women of Russia, Finland, Sweden and Norway. These countries are the biggest breasted with the average of ladies there having "larger than a D cup" bra sizes. The map does not explain how the breast sizes were measured, though the experts at HuffPo imagine tracking bra purchases per country would be an ideal - and fairly non-creepy - way to get the sizes. They also suggest suggest taking the biggest boob rankings with a grain of salt, as "it's hard to imagine that anyone has measured every chest in the world or taken a worldwide account of what size bras women buy. Plus, do breast implants count, or are we talking au naturel exclusively? Unclear."

5 Reasons Many Christian Women Remain Single - Should You Settle? Posted: 26 Jun 2014 07:51 AM PDT This interesting article about why many Christain women remain single, talks about 60 years old Sarah - never been married - with very high standards. At a Christian singles conference, Sarah was trying to comfort another single woman in her thirties who was tired of being lonely and was on the verge of 'settling'. In encouraging the younger woman to stay strong and wait for her Mr. Right, Sarah spoke about the men who had been her potential suitors and why she had turned them all down. As she spoke, it became clear to those listening that Sarah's standards and behavior were to blame for her being single at 60. Basically, Sarah was expecting too much from a mere human being, and some of the men she called "counterfeit", and whom she did not settle for, could have been her Mr. Right long time ago. Below is listed some of the things that may have kept Sarah and other Christian women like her single. Read and let us know if this talks to what you believe too about single Christian women. Sarah wanted Jesus…not a disciple of Jesus…but Jesus Himself Do you agree with this? Let's discuss. | ||
