Cheerleaders get fired up about Salahi by Paul Farhi, Washington Post Staff Writer 12-3-09. Before she made it into a White House state dinner without an official invitation, Michaele Salahi made it onto the Redskins alumni cheerleading squad — without ever having been a Redskins cheerleader.  Salahi performed at FedEx Field during halftime of the Redskins-St. Louis Rams game Sept. 20 with a group of 150 former Redskins cheerleaders. Salahi’s rehearsals with the group were filmed by a crew that has been following Michaele Salahi and her husband, Tareq, for possible inclusion on a cable TV reality show, “The Real Housewives of D.C.”  Several former cheerleaders said in interviews that Michaele Salahi’s presence at a rehearsal drew attention because of the TV cameras, but also suspicion because no one seemed to remember her as a cheerleader for the team.

I wrote yesterday in Man Controls Robotic Hand Using His Thoughts that years ago I watched Deepak Chopra and Wayne Dyer on the dias at a conference years ago, talking about the fact that we are all, indeed, one connected organism rather than individual, separate beings.  “If that’s so,” asks Dyer with a twinkle in his eye, “why can I move the fingers on my hand and I cannot move the fingers on your hand?”

“Because,” Chopra said, “it’s because you think it’s my hand.”

I put Today’s Post on Facebook and Renee Frechette Speir Great commented: I heard about this! Do you know that they have done studies where people think about lifting extreme amounts of weight with one finger, and over time, the finger is measurably stronger? Power.

Tiger Woods to pay his wife millions to stick by him by Peter Cohan Dec 3rd 2009.  “Not only has Woods issued a public apology on his web site, but the The Daily Beast reports that he will pay his wife, Elin Nordegren, $5 million upfront and another $55 million to persuade her to stay in their marriage for another 24 months.”

I wonder how many relationships would stay intact if funds were not mingled?  How many women would be with men if the men did not financially support them, (and their children from other marriages)?  How many men would live with the women they live with, if they had to pay their share of the rent, food and utilities?

ROME (AP) – An Italian who lost his left forearm in a car crash was successfully linked to a robotic hand, allowing him to feel sensations in the artificial limb and control it with his thoughts, scientists said Wednesday.  During a one-month experiment conducted last year, 26-year-old Pierpaolo Petruzziello felt like his lost arm had grown back again, although he was only controlling a robotic hand that was not even attached to his body.

I read in The women in the Tiger Woods Scandal:  As the Tiger Woods story continues to evolve and escalate (see: his apology), a handful of women who aren’t named Mrs. Woods have come into the fray claiming they’ve had affairs with the golf great. It can be quite confusing — so many mistresses, so little time — so PopEater took the time to break down each alleged Tiger poacher and the stories swirling around them. Then the story continued on to show pics and give some dish on each.  My thoughts on this matter of his alleged infidelity was – with all due respect – who cares? Continue reading →

I received an email from Bikaman@aol.com today but it wasn’t what I expected.  It read: Good Afternoon Folks.  Unfortunately, this is not a joke or one of Jim’s pranks. I wish it were. My name is Fred Padilla. I am a good friend of Jim’s which explains why I have the password to his computer and the key to his house. This email is going out to everyone in Jim’s AOL address book. Some of you already know this. For the rest of you… It is a very sad day for us. It is my sad duty to inform you that Jim passed away. It was either Sunday night or Monday. I found him yesterday at around 2:30 after concerned friends contacted me and informed me that nobody had heard from him for an unusual period of time. I myself was trying to reach him for over 24 hours and was actually planning a visit that very afternoon. Continue reading →
