bineaz,

but at least Coulter doesn't attempt to tear the whole world upside down just for that (she didn't even bother to try and file a law suit). And nor does she organize special crusades just because people express a disagreeing opinion about something she's said or written. Like some *journalists*, WAGS or footballer's inlaws have been prone to (and for reasons sake even some political youth federation "profiles".

I read recently that a cop in Sweden have been dragged to court just because he called some realestate owner "an idiot". And I suspect just an idiot would be someone to bother to draw someone to court just for that.

Coulter has already said that Jews would be perfect if they were Christians, that we should invade all the middle eastern countries and force then to baptise, that all liberals should be arrested and/or shot.

You know, you give her her chance, she will rip the world apart. She is one scary bitch with an Adam apple...

Why do you argue as if that's what she actually would do? A lot of liberals are quite prone to harsh words (and loud as well)...what's wrong with a dose of your own medicine now and then?

So.....

Well agente...if looks where what you'd vote for I swear that few male internati0nal leaders would be on the position where they are. If you want to talk about Coulter's looks she looks a lot better than many who more or less lives on their looks (not as much as looking good perhaps but sort of as walking freaks), though at some pictures she looks as if she could be Denis Leary's daughter. Which is still considerably better than Pamela Anderson's looks...but that's just my opinion.

She is one scary bitch with an Adam apple...


And what do you think of someone like Hunter S. Thompson ?
Who romaticize organisations like Hells Angels and such..sure, once upon a time they were a support organisation for homecoming soldiers that society somehow failed to "get back" but that is quite different from what they actually are today...

Or for that...someone like Tom Perkins (who also happen to be on the News Corps board of directors)....not only did he decide to quit on the board of Hewlett Packard in his fights with Pattie Dunn. which could be considered fine and the right thing to do if you're in that position and don't see eye to eye with someone. But Mr (while "Miss" would perhaps be more suitable for that guy) Perkins didn't stop with that...no he had to start some slander campaign about it too after he left. But then again, for people like *Mr* Perkins it would be more comfortable if all women were like the author Danielle Steele he married....

Mr Ed?!?! I am afraid that one is unfamiliar to me and am not bothered to google it.

Jeez...saw that interview with Perkins and I was sort of stunned. He sat and smiled and tried to appear cute in his pink shirt as if it was something clever he had done going into some behind the curtains campaign just for the sake and slander and discredit someone he didn't get a long with at a board of business. That is the sort of behaviour you'd expect from teenagers but seeing it from someone high ranked in the businessworld...I did raise my eyebrows (and of course my already rather low expectations on Murdochs News Corps was not really raised).

Leslie Staahl who carried on the interview looked somewhat discomtempt and the odd thing is that perkins didn't seem to realise it..he sort of chested up about it as if he thought that what he said had impressed her.
And how he sat and smiled and flicked out with his arms looked more like a slimy crooked businessman rather than what I would expect a serious one would.

Jeez..been skimming trough a report from Price Waterhouse Cooper and the World Bank "Paying taxes- the global picture" in Ukraine the time to comply the taxadministration for entrepeneurs (prepare, file and pay) is estimated to 2 185 hours per year.!!!

Sweden: 122 hours/year

1 krone spent in the taxadministration in Denmark generates 113 kroner that can be spent on education, healthcare, infrastructure etc. 1 peso spent in Mexico only generates 33 pesos...

what Price Waterhouse Cooper and the World Bank has to do with this thread


Well they have concluded a survey compiled to a report that serves well for some behumouring ethnical and cultural slander (and perhaps rip up some hard killed myths).

In Sweden the typical enterprise spends about 122 hours per year to comile, file and pay their taxes. In Ukraina it was over 2000 hours.
In USA the similar business spent over 300 hours per year for that.

Christmas Party Announcement

Postby Peyman A on 08 Dec 2007, 06:14

CHRISTMAS PARTY ANNOUNCEMENT
FROM: Patty Lewis, Human Resources Director
TO: All Employees
DATE: October 01, 2007
RE: Christmas Party
I'm happy to inform you that the company Christmas Party will take place on December 23, starting at noon in the private function room at the Grill House.
There will be a cash bar and plenty of drinks! We'll have a small band playing traditional carols...feel free to sing along.
And don't be surprised if our CEO shows up as Santa Claus!
A Christmas tree will be lit at 1:00pm. Exchange of gifts among employees can be done at that time; however, no gift should be over
$10.00 to make the giving of gifts easy for everyone's pockets. This gathering is only for employees!
Our CEO will make a special announcement at that time!
Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Patty
***** ****** ********** ******************************
FROM: Patty Lewis, Human Resources Director
TO: All Employees
DATE: October 02, 2007
RE: Holiday Party
In no way was yesterday's memo intended to exclude our Jewish employees.
We recognize that Chanukah is an important holiday, which often coincides with Christmas, though unfortunately not this year. However, from now on we're calling it our 'Holiday Party.'
The same policy applies to any other employees who are not Christians or those still celebrating Reconciliation Day.
There will be no Christmas tree. No Christmas carols sung.
We will have other types of music. Happy now?
Happy Holidays to you and your family.
Patty

RE: Holiday Party
Regarding the note I received from a member of Alcoholics Anonymous requesting a non-drinking table ... you didn't sign your name. I'm happy to accommodate this request, but if I put a sign on a table that reads, 'AA Only'; you wouldn't be anonymous anymore.
How am I supposed to handle this? Somebody?
Forget about the gifts exchange, no gifts exchange are allowed since the union members feel that $10.00 is too much money and executives believe $10.00 is a little chintzy. NO GIFTS EXCHANGE WILL BE ALLOWED.
************************************************** ***
FROM: Patty Lewis, Human Resources Director
To: All Employees
RE: Holiday Party
What a diverse group we are! I had no idea that December 20 begins the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which forbids eating and drinking during daylight hours.
There goes the party! Seriously, we can appreciate how a luncheon at this time of year does not accommodate our Muslim employees' beliefs. Perhaps the Grill House can hold off on serving your meal until the end of the party- or else package everything for you to take it home in little foil doggy baggy. Will that work?
Meanwhile, I've arranged for members of Weight Watchers to sit farthest from The dessert buffet and pregnant women will get the table closest to the restrooms.
Gays are allowed to sit with each other. Lesbians do not have to sit with Gay men, e ach will have their o wn tab le. Yes, there will be flower
arrangement for the Gay men's table.
To the person asking permission to cross dress, no cross-dressing allowed though.
We will have booster seats for short people.
Low-fat food will be available for those on a diet.
We cannot control the salt used in the food we suggest for those people with high blood pressure to taste first.
There will be fresh fruits as dessert for Diabetics, the restaurant cannot supply 'No Sugar' desserts. Sorry!
Did I miss anything?!?!?
Patty

RE: The F****** Holiday Party
Vegetarian pricks I've had it with you people!!! We're going to keep this party at the Grill House whether you like it or not, so you can sit quietly at the ta b le furthest from the 'grill of death,' as you so quaint ly put it, and you'll get your f****** salad bar, including
organic tomatoes. But you know, tomatoes have feelings, too. They scream when you slice them. I've heard them scream. I'm hearing them scream right NOW! I hope you all have a rotten holiday!
Drive drunk and die,

RE: Patty Lewis and Holiday Party
I'm sure I speak for all of us in wishing Patty Lewis a speedy recovery
and I'll continue to forward your cards to her. In the meantime,
management has decided to cancel our Holiday Party and give everyone the
afternoon of the 23rd off with full pay.
Happy Holidays!

Bineaz - Look for some ToGear challenge videos.

Those "haughty presenters" are legends.

The little one crashed a jet powered car at close to 300mph.

The tall one recently lifted a snotty teen in the air by his hoodie for being a twunt.

And the long haired one was sacked from writing for a car magazine for enclosing a secret message in an article that read:

You think this is fun. My arseis it it's taken ages to do.

Or words to that effect.

Anthem gaffe 'helped Croatia'

The British singer who sang the Croatian anthem before last night's match accidentally sang 'My penis is a mountain'.

Tony Henry was trying to sing the national anthem in Croatian, but reportedly got the words wrong.

Fans say the mispronounciation helped the players relax before the game at Wembley where Croatia beat England 3-2.

The national anthem is written in old style Croatian, and there can be slightly different interpretations in English because it is a very lyrical language.

The line in which Henry slipped up should have been "mila kuda si planina" (You know my dear how we love your mountains).

But what he actually sang was "mila kura si planina" which means "Dear Penis, you are a Mountain" or "My Dear, my penis is a mountain".

Croat players like Manchester City's Vedran Corluka and Arsenal target Luka Modric started looking at each other and grinning when they realised what he was singing.

Croat fan websites have been calling for Henry to be given a medal of honour for helping the players relax, they also want him made an official team mascot for the tournament.

Mate Prlic, publisher of the top Croatian footballing Torcida Magazine said: "It would be great if Tony Henry could join the Croatian team and fans at the European Championship in Austria and Switzerland.

"He obviously relaxed the Croatian players before the match at Wembley and if that's a winning combination why not invite him to join the team at Euro 2008 to keep the winning streak going."

bineaz...gross. Perhaps it's something with the name, Tony?

Watched Eastern Promises a while ago, half good film and worth the money. Though I have never actually came across some russian thug who carried that much tattos to other outfit of Mortensen was somewhat on the spot. The typical tendency for people who have grown up without much money to spend who have the tendency to be a tad bit over the top when they have some, the shiny shirt Mortensen wears in several scenes is just on par with the suit with too much silk (or was it polyester?) that Sergei Ivanov wore after he was leveled to second premiere after being minister of defence...you know that aging gigolo soon on sale style.
Impressed that they carried that in the film, otherwise you often see films that have a tendency to overstate people's social ranks by clothing and such (which on the contrary does not make it realistic as it is here where the wealthy family Mortensen's charachter works for have a more downplayed style).

At Saint Theresa's Church they have a weekly marriage support group for husbands. At the session last week, the priest asked Giuseppe, who was approaching his 50th wedding anniversary, to take a few minutes and share some insight into how he had managed to stay married to the same woman all these years.

Giuseppe replied to the assembled husbands, "Well, I've a-tried to treat-a her nice, spend the money on her, but best is that I took-a her to Italy for the 20th anniversary!" The priest responded, "Giuseppe, you are an amazing inspiration to all the husbands here! Please tell us what you are planning for your wife for your 50th anniversary." Giuseppe proudly replied, "I'm a-gonna go back and get her."

Yeah, that example of how she speaks sounds a bit like Hockey God's rantings at Worldcrossing (and also a bit like former socialdemocratic youth federation in sweden who had to resign after a drunken barbrawl which led to a court sentence finding her guilty of abuse of the security guard who was authorized to ask her to leave the premises). After her (temporary?) wrecked career as a professional politician she became a bit like those who spot wrongs in the justice system, real or imagined and joined up with a former record company CEO who was sentenced guilty to rape several years ago (Billy Butt is his name, I kid you not).
And she's going to have a baby now too.

She rescembles Svetlana Medvedev a bit as well. I didn't mean to be especially offensive about it but when i saw the presentation of her at RIA Novosti it struck me that "Have I not seen her before?" and I recalled it when digging to serve HockeyGod what "he" sounds like. She looks a bit like weight watcher instructor Marjorie.

But none of them are in the same as former goalie and now footballcommentator Magnus hedman's wife and sister in law though. I have some sympathy for them as to parts of their background but when hedman's wife was on an interview on TV and she was asked (by Kristian Luuk who is a very good and quite low key tv-host a bit like a younger version of Parkinson) when she decided about doing the spreads she went kind of defensive and said that she "had not done a "spread" (swedish word utvik) and suggested that those who see it like that are perhaps perverts I couldn't help to wonder if she's searching modeling jobs to illustrate "psychosis" in some journal of psychiatry.

Psychosis is a generic psychiatric term for a mental state often described as involving a "loss of contact with reality."
