ESPN - Outside The Lines, Reaching Out: Alexandra Stevenson And Julius "Dr. J" Erving

Saturday, January 31, 2009

This post is a lengthy read, but ESPN "Outside The Lines" written by Tom Friend is a wonderful exploration of Alexandra Stevenson, her life and tennis journey and eventual uniting with her father, Julius Erving.

I myself, as well as a number of you who have asked about Alexandra Stevenson, have wondered where she was or why she was in and out of tennis so much. Each and every question is answered here.

The GOP War On Voting Is In Full Swing:

Rolling Stone just published an enlightening, albeit disturbing, article detailing the coordinated effort on the part of the Republican Party to roll back voting rights for millions of Americans. With the help of the American Legislative Exchange Council [ALEC], the billionaire Koch brothers, and other rightist allies, the GOP has already succeeded in passing legislation that inhibits and/or prohibits voting by students, seniors, minorities, and the poor.

he article goes into great depth describing the GOP assault on democracy and the potential for disenfranchisement and electoral chaos. Some groups, including the ACLU, are challenging the new laws in court. Read more at nicksperusals.blogspot.com

Earliest Signs of Advanced Technology Found

If we understand Technology as the study of techniques to ease the way for man, then technology actually goes back well beyond the Iphone. That date now pushed back to 1.76 million years before the Iphone. We have come a long way baby.


Speaking of advanced technology, has anyone dug up the Iphone 5 launch date? I mean Apple must be booking some Ad's or renting a launch space or something by now.

Earliest Signs of Advanced Tools Found

One hallmark of Homo erectus, a forerunner of modern humans, was his stone tools, an advanced technology reflecting a good deal of forethought and dexterity. Up to now, however, scientists have been unable to pin a firm date on the earliest known evidence of his stone tool-making.

A new geological study, being reported Thursday in the journal Nature, showed that tools from a site near Lake Turkana in Kenya were made about 1.76 million years ago, the earliest of their ilk found so far. Previous dates were estimates ranging from 1.4 million to 1.6 million years ago. Read more at www.nytimes.com

Death penalty now a possibility in alleged Mississippi hate killing

Editor's note: The following story contains language some readers may consider offensive.

Jackson, Mississippi (CNN) -- The prosecutor investigating the hit-and-run killing of a black man in Jackson, Mississippi, announced he has upgraded the charge against suspect Deryl Dedmon from murder to capital murder. This makes the white 19-year-old suspect eligible for a possible death sentence if convicted.

The killing -- which sparked national attention after CNN obtained and aired exclusive surveillance video that shows the attack as it took place -- is also being investigated by the U.S. Justice Department, federal and Mississippi officials tell CNN.

Federal investigators are in Jackson at the request of Smith, who says he will be seeking indictments against some or all of the white teens in coming weeks.

"This was a racially motivated murder, committed because the victim was black. We want to prosecute and bring justice in this case to the fullest extent of the law,"

But Hinds and officials from the DA's office say they hope to bring indictments against not only Dedmon and Rice, but also other teens who were in their cars and part of the attack that early morning. Read more at www.cnn.com

Obama: I Reversed Recession Until 'Bad Luck' Hit?

Hetep and Respect Mr. President, I love you dearly but take my advise and don't use the term "Good Luck" again. Now I don't know if this is true however, I am sure your advisers have told you by now that the Retuglicans will ram those words up you rectum (in or out of context) with Dollar pointed criminal bankster pitchforks.

The good news is you made the error early in the campaign.

Global headwinds is good political phraseology, there is no bad luck in politics my friend.

The Reality is

It's refreshing to hear a new excuse from the President. At least it's not Bush's Fault this time!

This was said on MSNBC/newsvine by a conservative in his column.

No, this is not the reality, the reality is, this is still the Great Bush Recession/Depression of 08. It will take at least 10 years, if not 20, to dig out of this Republican mess. Don't forget the Bush Wars. We can never let the citizens forget that it was the Republicans from Reagan attacking unions and Bank regulations, to sell America out to China, India and the banksters, to Bush and the forty thieves that cause the Republican bankruptcy of the nation (Banks insolvent - no money- economy dead in water).

We hired the smart guy to bring us back from the brink and he has.

He is right, recovery on tract, till too many Dems stayed home in 2010 and allowed the crazy's to stack the lower house with the same people and ideology that bankrupt the nation. They have been in there more then 200 days and have not passed a bill to produce one job or rebuild one single brick in our Nation. Republicans are now uniting against the creation of an infrastructure bank to put Americans back to work.

It is not bad luck that is preventing jobs, it is bad Republicans that are preventing jobs.

Mr. President you don't actually have to speak at town hall meetings. You just have to play the 28 second tape of the Republican Presidential candidate saying that "...Corporations are... human beings..." and the one with the Texes presidential candidate saying that Social Security and medicare are unconstitutional. End of story, you are reelected by all the elders of the nation and their children and you get a Democratic house with a land slide.

Bankster homework see these documentaries in this order.
1. Inside Job - How Reagan to Bush and the Banksters bankrupt the nation
2. Capitalism: A Love Story

The reality is we have some bad actors in the Dem Party to. I hired this president to bring single payer on-line. My recommendation Mr. President is to get that job done, launch the green moon shot and let the next Dem President, after your second term focus on re-regulating the banks if we the American people show the orbs to end our enslavement to the Banksters.

In the 2012 election we the people have to demonstrate that we have the orbs to give you the juice to tax the rich and finish the health care reform that we hired you to start.

Eric Clapton "crossroads" (Video)

Robert Johnson's Crossroads in a most interesting modern update. Blues is still on the move with a new groove.



Nice, I have seen Erick Clapton's Crossroads and it has been OK But this live rendition is the one with the right groove, in my humble opinion. I have tried to find this live performance on Itunes but no luck.

The Original Robert Johnson.

For those familure with Classical African Civilization, Kemet (Ancient Egypt)I want you to think of the meaning of the cross roads in the Ausarian cosmological Tradition.

Poor Whites in Azania (South Africa) - Video

If you listen to many Cultural Terrorists in America they would have you believe that poverty is only Black or mostly Black. You have some White Americans that think poverty is a Black mental condition or physical condition or something built into African American Culture, not so says this 2 minute video.




There are still to many Americans, including AA's, that believe all Africans are poor. The culture you live in has a lot to do with who is poor and who is not. Who has opportunity and who does not. There is a lesson in this video for the worlds people. Poverty anywhere is a threat to opportunity everywhere.

Leading Republican Presidential Candidate - Corporations are Human Beings (Video 28)

Just in case you think that Bush and the forty thieves are the only ones who will dupe low information voters into thinking Corporations are people, listen to this guy. (Video 28 Seconds)




We all know of the criminal Republican SCOTUS and their Citizens United partisan ruling that Corporations are people. Unfortunately the purpose was not clear to the information disabled. Let me make the purpose clear. The Bush Supreme Court intended to enable insurrectionist corporations to take control of voting through the Tea Party and its Republican corpse in America. The plan is to nullifying the American people's vote with money.

I first saw this corporate immoral money used in the Wisconsin Republican Recall elections. They lost two of their Republican "Bullet Proof" districts even with all the money they poured in. But to hear a human being actually say to a crowd that corporations are people too, is Amazing. Republicans really do think the masses are asses.

Well we have a message for the criminal, no tax paying corporations, like FOX in 2012

My Top Three Issues +

1. Create Jobs is Job one

2. Health Care Reform upgraded to Single Payer

3. End Bush Wars

4. Pass law and amendment no corporate money in elections.

Just in case you are still not clear what the Republicans are up to for you family and friends, read this.

Rick Perry: Social Security and Medicare Are Unconstitutional

The Republicans Started Killing the Middle Class in 1981

Criminal Corporations and Cultural Anti-humanists joined forces in 1981 in a back lash to the 1960's with a new anti-humanist push for greed is good profits.



You won't believe who helped them. 2012 may be our last chance to turn around this 30 year attack. However, we need to be on the same page if we are going to win, so read on.

30 years ago: The day the middle class died

From time to time, someone under 30 will ask me, "When did this all begin, America's downward slide?" They say they've heard of a time when working people could raise a family and send the kids to college on just one parent's income (and that college in states like California and New York was almost free). That anyone who wanted a decent paying job could get one. That people only worked five days a week, eight hours a day, got the whole weekend off and had a paid vacation every summer. That many jobs were union jobs, from baggers at the grocery store to the guy painting your house, and this meant that no matter how "lowly" your job was you had guarantees of a pension, occasional raises, health insurance and someone to stick up for you if you were unfairly treated.

Young people have heard of this mythical time - but it was no myth, it was real. And when they ask, "When did this all end?", I say, "It ended on this day: August 5th, 1981."

Beginning on this date, 30 years ago, Big Business and the Right Wing decided to "go for it" - to see if they could actually destroy the middle class so that they could become richer themselves.

And they've succeeded.

On Aug. 5, 1981, President Ronald Reagan fired every member of the air traffic controllers union (PATCO) who'd defied his order to return to work and declared their union illegal. They had been on strike for just two days. Read more at eastvalleytribune.com
