This is a well written article about the Hollywood Socialist Idiots who will turn a blind eye to anything and everything in order to support their socialist ideals. Thor Halvorssen does a very thorough job of exposing the hypocrisy and ignorance in their political and ideological stances when it comes to Chavez.
So why, despite his atrocious human rights record, does Chavez enjoy the support of high-profile actors and activists?
What tickles Penn and his ilk is that Chavez is the world’s most visible opponent of the United States and the U.S. government. Many foreign leaders differ with President Bush, but none of these leaders openly use profane and scatological language. In this, Chavez is identical to his cheerleaders.
Whether by embracing Iran’s leader, cozying up to Belarus strongman Alexander Lukashenko or even supporting Saddam Hussein by becoming the last elected leader to visit him in Iraq — Chavez will do the opposite of President Bush and the American government.
Don’t you hate the fact that it seems like everything in your life requires a password these days? What is worse, is that many places require you to change your password every so often and won’t let you use passwords you have already used! Anyways… I found this little site that helps you determine if the password you selected is a good one or not. No, it’s not going to tell you that using your initials and birth date is NOT a good idea (you should already know this!) – but it will tell you the strength based on factors such as the characters used, caps, length, etc.

The Seattle Seahawks finally were able to negotiate a contract with their Franchise Player, CB Marcus Trufant. I think Marcus truly wanted to remain a Seahawks all along, but he also believed he should be paid with the top 3 at his position. I’m not sure if I’d consider Marcus a “shut down” corner or not, but he is definitely ‘very good’ and I’m glad we locked him up through 2013.
Additionally, the Seahawks signed Olindo “Nightmare” Mare to fill the voide that Josh “It’s about winning” Brown created when he decided that the Rams are a better bet for “winning” than the 4-time defending NFC West Champions. The Seahawks have won playoff games the last several years and were in the Super Bowl just 3 years ago while the Rams, well… lets put it this way; Since 2003, the Seahawks are 51-29 in the regular season with 4 straight NFC West Titles and a trip to the Super Bowl. The Rams are 37-43, with no playoff appearances. Sure Josh, it wasn’t about the “money”, it was about “winning”. I hope Olindo can return to his form when he was one of the best kickers in the league, but Josh Brown is a “great” kicker and although I think his comments were insulting and ridiculous, he definitely left huge shoes to be filled in Seattle where kicking is not the easiest job with the weather out there.
Porn Camp
Adult film-star wannabes will have their chance to learn the business this weekend at “Porn Camp” in Tampa, Fla.
Led by actress Courtney Cummz, the seminar will cover everything from lighting and sound to legal advice. But the highlight of the three-day event is hands on — participants will shoot their own adult-film scene.
“They will tell you, show you and then help while you make your own film … that you will own the rights to,” the seminar’s Web site said.
But the privilege doesn’t come cheap, the St. Petersburg Times reports. The seminar costs $4,000 per person. About two dozen participants are expected for the event.

Con: Vegas comes to Bethlehem?
Bethlehem, once the Lehigh Valley’s steel capital, is now bustling with tech and biotech startups, thanks to resources stemming from Lehigh University and health centers in the region.
The city welcomes new businesses with open arms, offering technical assistance, low-interest “gap” financing, a tax abatement program, enterprise zone incentives, and a loan pool providing up to $2 million for new and existing businesses. In addition, Ben Franklin Technology Partners, an internationally recognized, state-funded program based at Lehigh University, links early-stage technology firms and established manufacturers with funding, employees, technology, and universities.
The city has been looking to develop other areas of business. Sparking some controversy is a $600-million development project that is slated to include a large casino on the old Bethlehem Steel factory site. But for now, the city remains low-key. Lehigh Valley is centrally located 50 miles north of Philadelphia and 70 miles west of New York City. Low real estate prices (the median home price hovers around $160,000) make it a popular bedroom community for the larger cities, but also an advantageous spot to launch. Hiking and biking trails wind through several parks, and the Lehigh River provides opportunities for boating and fishing. -Peter MacDougall
I highly suggest this….
This is a unique event meant for anyone who wishes to transform an ordinary meal or meeting into a magical moment that will leave a lasting impression on their guests!
Breakfast in the sky, lunch in the sky, cocktails in the sky, meeting in the sky… there is no limit to your imagination.
Dinner in the Sky is hosted at a table suspended at a height of 50 metres, by a team of professionals. Benji Fun, our partner in this event, is the worldwide leader for this type of activity.
Dinner in the Sky is available for a session of 8 hours. It can be divided or personalised accorded to the client’s wishes.
Dinner in the Sky accomodates 22 people around the table at every session, with three staff in the middle (chef, waiter, or entertainer). Just to give you an example: this means that, at a rate of 3 sessions per hour, more than 500 people could have access to this exceptional platform, or only 22 if you want an exclusive VIP event.
Dinner in the Sky is an event that can be held anywhere (golf course, public place, race track, castle, vineyard, historical site…) as long as there is a surface of approximately 500 m2 that can be secured. Of course, authorisation by the owner is required.
Dinner in the Sky may include a second crane with a platform (or more if desired) at the same height as the table, for entertainment such as music, or presentations (i.e. a car).
