Grace Bowman withdraws from 2012 Paralympic Dressage Individual Championship Test – Grade II event

London, England — Earlier today at the Greenwich Park, riding third in the Paralympic Dressage Individual Championship Test – Grade II, Grace Bowman withdrew mid-ride after a series of low scores during the event. Bowman was Australia’s only rider in this event.

Prior to entering the competition ring, Bowman’s horse Kirby Park Joy was in poor form, with Bowman unable to get control of her, showing little harmony between horse and rider. With a score of 70% or better expected for the best competitors, Bowman started with 48.0% on the halt salute, 44% on the half circle and 48.7% on the medium trot. Things did not get better as the ride continued, with Bowman earning a 45.8% in the reinback, 39.8% for the circle R 8m and 37.3% for the circle L 8m. Shortly after this, Bowman signaled to the judges her desire to withdraw from the ride. In the competition ring, she was frequently pulling on the reins as Kirby Park Joy was frequently tossing her head. According to a Dutch equestrian journalist, her horse was not agreeing with her from the start. Bowman left the field of play in tears.

Bowman had said this event was her favorite, telling the media Thursday following her ride in the team competition, “I enjoy the individual test best of all, but don’t like the freestyle — it’s my least favourite.”

Kirby Park Joy has had problems in London, with Bowman telling the media, “She was a bit tense and didn’t like the big scoreboard ahead of us, so our score was much lower than usual.” Australian Team Manager Sally Francis confirmed this, saying in a media release, “Grace’s horse has had some issues with the sight screen in the arena. […] Grace did well to control her during the team test and finish [Thursday]. We’ve been working very closely with her horse since to try to alleviate any stress it might be under.”

It isn’t the first time Bowman has had horse problems at the Paralympics; her horse at the 2008 Summer Paralympics had similar issues.

Bowman’s London Paralympic campaign has come to an end without a medal, after having finished 21st Thursday in the Team Test – Grade II event.

UK Government propaganda directed at Muslim youth

Monday, October 23, 2006

2005 Wikimedia file photo of the Glasgow Central Mosque in Glasgow, Scotland.

The Scotsman uncovers what it calls “a largely-unannounced propaganda campaign” by John Reid, the UK Home Secretary, intended to prevent the spread of extremism among young British Muslims. Islamic teachers and preachers have been recruited to put the case against violence and promote moderation. The media used for this campaign include a website – The Radical Middle Way, events held in different parts of the country, courses of lectures, pod casts, and CDs. Listed among the supporters of this campaign, which include a number of book shops. food providers and charities, are the Home Office, and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office.

One Home Office source is quoted as saying that “…there are forces within this country trying to manipulate the feeling of British Muslims, and we have to do more to combat those forces”.

Prime Minister Tony Blair is said to have instructed Ministers to look beyond the Muslim Council of Great Britain and engage with all streams of Muslim opinion.

Trevor Phillips, chairman of the Commission for Racial Equality is reported as saying on BBC 1’s Sunday AM programme that he would not want to be a Muslim, because what should have been a proper conversation between all kinds of British people “seems to have turned into a trial of one particular community, and that can’t be right”.

What stimulated the rush to the studios of politicians and Ministers to give their opinions on Muslim culture was the objection that the Leader of the House of Commons, Jack Straw had, to women wearing the full veil when attending his surgery.

U.S. TV networks look to past for future programming

Tuesday, March 22, 2005

Los Angeles, California — Four of six national television broadcast networks recently wooed potential advertisers for the 2005-2006 season with programming offerings in the new development phase. These included NBC, Fox, ABC and The WB. Two other networks, CBS and UPN, plan to preview their offerings March 24.

After four years of focusing on high-profile reality television, network executives are turning to the past for inspiration on scripted series. Some networks said they are “more consciously aggressive about developing shows” that recall such classics as Taxi and Barney Miller, Craig Erwich, a programming executive for Fox, told USA Today. In the same report, Kevin Reilly, NBC entertainment chief said, “I don’t think the answer has to be that it’s groundbreaking or something you’ve never seen before.”

But at least one ad buyer had reservations about the rear-view mirror technique. “Every network seems to be looking back rather than forward for programming ideas. The reminiscence factor may be good if you are looking for an older audience, but it may not be a way to bring in the younger audiences,” Laura Caraccioli-Davis, senior vice president and director of Starcom Entertainment told Mediaweek magazine.

James Bond set at Pinewood Studios destroyed by fire

Sunday, July 30, 2006

Firefighters have confirmed that the large James Bond sound stage at Pinewood Studios has been destroyed by fire. It is thought eight fire engines were called to the scene near Iver Heath in Buckinghamshire on Sunday morning, where filming for Casino Royale, the latest Bond movie, has been completed.

Jen McVean witnessed the event, and she said the stage was “completely on fire”. The set had been transformed into a replica of the Italian city of Venice, but Mrs McVean, who owns a firm at the studios, said: “Nothing is salvageable and there are many, many fire engines there.” One spokesman said around 40 to 50 firefighters were at the scene.

It is reported that fire damage caused the building’s roof to fall in and firefighters were damping the flames down with specialist equipment. “We do not know the extent of the damage to the 007 stage, although it is believed to be significant,” a spokesman for Pinewood Studios said. “Filming was not taking place. A production had completed filming and its film sets were in the process of being removed,” he added.

No one was reported injured in the incident.

Pinewood, which was created in 1935, was the filming ground for Dr No, the first ever James Bond movie in 1962. It merged with Shepperton Studios in 2001, and high-budget movies like Harry Potter and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory have since been filmed there.

In 1984, a sound stage caught fire, but it reopened in January 1985 and was named the Albert Brocolli sound stage in honour of the man who produced many Bond films. In 1997, Pinewood was hit by fire again after flames broke out in the roof of a sound building where The Avengers was being recorded.

The Tumescent Male Organ At Night: No Rest For The Weary

The Tumescent Male Organ At Night: No Rest For The Weary

The Tumescent Male Organ at Night: No Rest for the Weary by John DuganPity the poor tumescent male organ. Hes usually up and about when a guy first wakes up, ready to greet the dawn. And though he may go away for a while, he pops back up several times during the course of an ordinary day. But even when night falls and a man climbs wearily into bed, the tumescent male organ isnt done yet. Assuming the dude has a typical level of male organ health, his manhood is going to be hardening three to five times during the night, while the rest of his body is getting the sleep it needs to function.What is it with that tumescent male organ and his nighttime activities? Is he just an over-achiever, ever eager to show off what hes capable of? Does he pop up throughout the night because hes like a little kid, afraid he might miss out on something? Is he simply too excited? Is he an insomniac? No, hes just healthy and a guy should be glad he has a tumescent manhood that enjoys being awake while others sleep. Its a sign of good health.Its not from sensual dreamsIn general, guys get tumescence while they sleep because theyre dreaming but its not because men are constantly dreaming of engaging in a sensual romp with a beautifully-toned partner who meets their definition of sensual. While men do occasionally have sensual dreams, its not sensual content that causes the manhood to pop up at night. And its also not because he is touching himself or otherwise unconsciously self-stimulating.At night, while a guy sleeps, his parasympathetic nervous system is at work. This system is responsible for things like digestion, urination, salivation and sensual arousal. It slows down the heart rate, helps the muscles relax and promotes deep sleep. And while its doing these things, it tells the member to get up and exercise. There can be other factors contributing to a tumescent male organ at night. For example, sometimes the member becomes tumescent to discourage the bladder from sending urine out of the body. A guy needs to get sleep, and the tumescence keeps him from having to get up and go urinate instead.Some doctors also theorize that, all things being equal, blood becomes more oxygenated when a person is sleeping. Hes not exerting himself unduly, so the oxygen that enters the body doesnt get expended on other tasks. And oxygen-rich blood is thought to be more conducive to a tumescent state.FrequencyMost guys are unaware of how many hardness cycles they have during the night, for the simple reason that they are asleep at the time. But regularly having fewer than three firmness moments during the night may be an indication of a bigger problem, such as high blood pressure, nerve issues, diabetes, depression or anxiety. It may also manifest in weaker daytime tumescence. If a man notices a lack of night tumescence or has weak daytime hardness, he may want to bring this up with his doctor and see if tests should be run.A busy, tumescent male organ at night is one sign of good male organ health, but a guy shouldnt stop there. He needs to daily make use of a top flight male organ health crme (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil, which is clinically proven mild and safe for skin) to keep the member in good form. Its good to check the ingredient list of any potential crmes and to look for both L-arginine and L carnitine. The former is an amino acid that plays a key role in the production of nitric oxide, which in turn helps manhood blood vessels expand and helps them accommodate more blood during the tumescence process. The latter is excellent for men who may have lost some manhood sensation due to rough handling. It is a neuroprotective and can help restore male organ sensitivity. Visit http://www.menshealthfirst.com for additional information on most common male organ health issues, tips on improving manhood sensitivity and what to do to maintain a healthy member.

Charlottetown, P.E.I. residents rally to support restaurant

Wednesday, March 30, 2005

The owners of the Noodle House Restaurant of Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island (P.E.I.), Canada were overwhelmed by community support Tuesday when the restaurant overflowed with customers, cards, flowers, and personal pleas to not leave the province.

According to CBC News Prince Edward Island, the recent outpouring of support occurred after Tommy and Lina Ko, the restaurant owners, announced they would close the restaurant and leave the province following an incident two weeks ago, when groups of up to 200 teens from two nearby schools surrounded the restaurant, pelting it with snowballs, and threatening the Kos. Charlottetown Police Chief Paul Smith told CBC PEI that his force is ready to take whatever action is necessary to crack down on the behaviour and last week started videotaping over lunchtime when most of the misbehaviour has taken place. Police noted that they have received complaints from other businesses, pedestrians, and drivers in the busy “fast food alley” and intend to seek co-operation from the schools in identifying the main culprits.

However, a CBC PEI story from October, 2002, reported the Kos asking police to do more to stop the littering and other vandalism in the area including having signs smashed, windows broken, and fireworks set off in front of their restaurant. At that time, Deputy Chief Richard Collins told CBC PEI: “You can’t have upwards of 1,500 to 2,000 students in and around that area at dinner hour and not expect for some of them to misbehave,” but promised to continue patrols and try to teach the students respect of property.

Tommy Ko told CBC News that he was overwhelmed by the support this week and in thanks put on a surprise free buffet, though customers insisted on paying anyway. Nevertheless, after fighting the harassment for some five years, the Kos say they still are not sure they want to stay.

Arkansas Democratic party chairman assassinated by gunman

Wednesday, August 13, 2008

Bill Gwatney, chairman of the Democratic Party of Arkansas, died this afternoon at 3:59 pm CDT (UTC-5) after having been shot earlier this morning.

Bill Gwatney Image: Democratic Party of Arkansas.

“He [the gunman] came in and went into this office and started shooting,” said police Lt. Terry Hastings, speaking to reporters outside the party headquarters.

The suspect is Tim Johnson, a white male, described by Gwatney’s secretary as wearing “khaki pants, white shirt, silver-gray hair, late 40s.” He reportedly walked into the party headquarters facilities in Little Rock, Arkansas, conversed with the Chairman’s secretary, refused her offer of bumper stickers, and then walked past her saying he had to see the Chairman.

After the shooting, Johnson got into his blue Chevrolet pickup truck and led police on a 25-mile chase. The end result was the shooting of the suspect, who was airlifted to a hospital and eventually died of his wounds.

According to The New York Times, Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton issued a joint statement saying, “We are stunned and shaken by today’s shooting at the Arkansas Democratic Party where our good friend and fellow Democrat Bill Gwatney was critically wounded … Bill is not only a strong chairman of Arkansas’ Democratic Party, but he is also a cherished friend and confidante.”

Gwatney was also a car dealership owner and former state senator.
