Ashton Kutcher And Demi Moore’s Divorce: Infectious Monkey Sex In The Kabbalah Centre Hot Tub
ASHTON Kutcher’s alleged extra-marital sex with a blonde named Sara Leal – following news of alleged extra-marital sex with a brunette named Brittney Jones – has resulted in rumours that he and Demi Moore are to be divorced.The story is a big news because:
1. Kutcher is alleged to have cheated on the night of his sixth wedding anniversary.
2. Kutcher is alleged to have pulled two women at a club called Fluxx (silent ‘l”).
3. An “onlooker” at Fluxx said Kutcher and two pals cruised the place for women who were “hot-tub worthy”. We are not told any more than that and wonder what hot tub worthy means?
Is it:
a) Women who are less likely to “prune”after long exposure to hot bubbles?
b) Non-incontinent women?
c) Women with no signs of skin contagions, such as cold sores and veruccas?
d) Women with massive breasts which will bob enticingly above the waves?

World Rejoice: England’s Randy Bores Are Out Of The Rugby World Cup
ENGLAND are out of the rugby World Cup. Good. They behaved like an oafish, belligerent, spoilt, cheating, cosseted, embarrassing bunch of cocky, misogynistic, arrogant pillocks from first to last. Good they’ve been defeated by the fighting French. The team gave lie to the legend that rugby players are not like footballers, being made of nobler and more stoic stuff. Still, at least the Somoan boy in the team tried hard.
What we need is some lighthearted relief. Here’s Stephen Jones in the Times:
“And so France went in leading 16-0, and this after Dimitri Yachvili, who played immaculately, missed three shots at goal.”
Immaculate? Well, compared to the ugly mess called England, he might well have looked immaculate…

Objectified Amanda Knox: Making A Killing From Meredith Kercher’s Death
AMANDA Knox is innocent. She did not murder Meredith Kercher. She did not kill her, either. So, why is the Sunday Times leading with:
“THE KNOX FILES – THE UNANSWERED QUESTIONS”
They are:
Why did she change her story?
Why did she frame a friend?
So who did murder Meredith Kercher?
Only, these questions have been already answered. Knox had no lawyer at the time when she claimed that Patrick Lumumba, the owner of the Le Chic bar where she worked, had killed Kercher while she was in the kitchen blocking out the sound with her hands over her ears. The Italian Supreme Court tossed out her alleged “confession”. Knox then said she had spent the night with Sollecito at his place.

The Michael Jackson Tribute Concert In Photos: Milking Jacko In Cardiff
WHAT coincidence that with Michael Jackson’s name high on the news cycle there should be a Michael Forever Tribute Concert in Cardiff, a city so close to MJ’s heart? Fans, of course, loved the show that featured detective Latoya Jackson (and Tito), Yolanda Adams, Ne-Yo, Christina Aguilera, Smokey Robinson, Gladys Knight, Leona Lewis, Jackie Jackson, Marlon Jackson, Jamie Foxx, Christina Aguilera and her big knickers, Cee Lo Green, Paris Jackson, Prince Jackson and little Blanket Jackson yet to add his name to a range of bed wear…

The Salvation Of Cheryl Cole: Nation’s Sweetheart Shows She’s Changed
CHERLY Cole is no longer a god on television’s Mount Olympus. The X Factor and the nation’s sweetheart parted company; Cole replaced by Tulisa, a less pretty London version of her pre-Cowell-ed former self. The show would go on and Cole would… Well, what?
The talk is of ‘what next?’ for Cheryl, a woman whose star rose on the telly. The story has been of a lip-synching woman hiding her pained eyes behind big glasses – a woman for whom fame has been a cruel mistress.

Daily Mail Infiltrated By Muslim Marxists: Is Daily Mail Reporter A BBC Operative?
THE Daily Mail has been banging on about the BBC ending the use of BC and AD, replacing Christianity with Common Era (CE) and Before Common Era (BCE). The Daily Mail would never stoop to political correctness, Islam and Marxist ideology. Until it did. The hard working ‘Daily Mail Reporter’ received this press release from the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics:
A thousand years ago, a brilliant beacon of light blazed in the sky, shining brightly enough to be seen even in daytime for almost a month. Native American and Chinese observers recorded the eye-catching event. We now know that they witnessed an exploding star, which left behind a gaseous remnant known as the Crab Nebula.
The same object that dazzled skygazers in 1054 C.E. continues to dazzle astronomers today by pumping out radiation at higher energies than anyone expected.

Lisa Irwin: The Mother, The Witness, The Police And Barney The Dinosaur
LISA Irwin is missing: The 10-month old child was kidnapped from her cot by an intruder on Monday 4th October 2011. Lisa Irwin is blonde and blue eyed.
The child’s parents, Jeremy Irwin and Deborah Bradley, have held a press conference.
Bradley golds a purple Barney doll. He cries. He says: “We just want our baby back.”
The police have no suspects. The police have no clues.
The Case
The Huffinton Post: “Lisa Irwin Missing: Parents Of Missouri Baby Stop Cooperating”
At an evening news conference, Kansas City police spokesman Steve Young said Jeremy Irwin and Deborah Bradley stopped cooperating with authorities Thursday. The couple had been working with police since the disappearance of their daughter, Lisa, who the parents say was snatched from her crib sometime late Monday or early Tuesday. “Tonight, they decided to stop talking to detectives, and I don’t have to illustrate how that affects the investigation. That speaks for itself,” Young said.
Doesn’t saying nothing say nothing?
Relatives of the couple later called their own news conference, where a sister of Irwin read a statement saying “we have never stopped cooperating with police. We’ve been cooperative from day one, and we continue to assist the police with the investigation”.
Some facts
During a tearful news conference Thursday morning, Irwin and Bradley had described how they frantically searched their home for any sign of their daughter after her father came home from work early Tuesday and she wasn’t in her crib. They said they found an open window, an unlocked front door and house lights blazing, and later discovered that their three cellphones were gone.

Chupacabra Killed In Mississippi: Photos
A STRANGE creature has been sighted in Simpson County, Mississippi. The creature’s back legs are longer than its front legs. It has long teeth,. It has no hair. And when Truitt Bernard saw what might have been the first or alt of its kind, he knew what to do: shoot it dead.
Says Barnard:
“It’s an ugly looking beast. I know it’s not a coyote. I’ve killed some mangy coyotes too, and I just haven’t seen something quite like it.”

Steve Jobs And The Options Grants
SO Steve Jobs is dead: long live Steve Jobs.
There are of course acres of newsprint devoted to him today but for me two little stories stand out.
It was only a couple of months ago that his biological father (Jobs was adopted) was revealed to still be working in a Nevada casino and that the two of them had never met or even talked on the phone as adults. I wonder if they did in these last couple of months?
The second is a minor financial story and given that this is the money column, an annoying little detail it’s worth correcting. It’s about backdated options grants. In his Telegraph obituary:
In 2001 he was granted stock options amounting to 7.5 million Apple shares, allegedly without the required authorisation from the company’s board of directors. Furthermore, the option came with an exercise price of $18.30.
But this price allegedly should have been $21.10, thereby incurring a taxable charge of $20 million that Jobs did not report as income.
There was a little spate of this going on in tech companies at the time and it became a minor scandal. However, it’s almost universally misunderstood.

Amanda Knox’s Millions Are Her Dues: Meredith Kercher Has Not Lost Out
AMANDA Knox appears on just two front page:
“Amanda Knox insists: ‘I’m not a monster'” – Daily Express
“Knoxy haunted by the ghost of Meredith” – Daily Star
Together these headlines continue to promote the whispers that justice has not been done. The British press will not release Amanda Knox from their court of public opinion.
Lindy McDowell writes in the Belfast Telegraph:
Their [Kerchers] gentle, innocent girl has been all but forgotten. Foxy Knoxy looks set to make a fortune flogging her story.
Again the British press juxtapose the dead women against the woman wrongly convicted of her murder. The inference is that in getting on with her life Knox is behaving badly – that Kercher is the only victim in an unfair world that let’s Knox prosper. But Knox is innocent. She is free to make money and spend it how she wishes. There is not a shred of evidence linking her to the murder of Meredith Kercher. But Meredith Kercher – Our Meredith – was British, and therefore the British press seek to patronise the dead women by seeing to it that another woman is hurt. McDowell says Kercher was innocent. So too is Knox. One life ended and one life damaged. The killer or killers must answer for much.

Who Wants To Have Dirty Sex With Amanda Knox? It’s A TV Debate
WHEN we told you that Matthew Wright was asking jobbing opinion experts on his The Wright Stuff TV show on Channel 5 if they would have sex with Amanda Knox – a woman whose life has been damanged by a wrongful conviction for murder – we did not tell you the results.
Wright says he likes “dirty girls” and would. Chris Biggins offered no firm decision. Kelly Hoppen said she hoped Knox would give any money earned from telling the story of how her life was undone to charity. (But anyone earning money from talking about Knox can spend it how they like.) And Liz McClarnon told us that she Botoxes to her armpits and would not have sex with Amanda Knox.

British Press Won’t Let ‘Beaming’ Amanda Knox Go Free
AMANDA Knox is innocent. Her link to the murder of Meredith Kercher was a miscarriage of justice. But for reasons not entirely clear many British newspaper lead with her photo and name juxtaposed against images of one of the murdered woman’s family. The contrast between smiling Knox – and she must always be pictured smiling – and the sober Kerchers is stark. The Sun and Mail describe Knox as “beaming“. You might focus on her tears. But the British press wait for her to smile. The headlines are delivered in a gossipy style with big sideways eyes and a bitter undercurrent:
The front pages:
The Times: “Kerchers face more anguish as happy Knox heads for home”
The Kerchers face more anguish because Knox has gone home? Justice pains them? The Kerchers have been dignified and just. In the media glare and the emotional maelstrom of his daughter’s murder, Lyle Kercher says:
“While we accept the decision that was handed down yesterday and respect the court and the Italian justice system, we do find that we are now left obviously looking at this again and thinking how a decision that was so certain two years ago has been so emphatically over turned now.”
The Times’s headline does them a disservice.

Tube Drivers Deserve Their £50k: Blithering Bloody Nonsense
WE’RE told today that Tube drivers deserve their £50,000 a year pay packets because, well, because they deserve them:
But the drivers who take the millions of Londoners and visitors and tourists to their destinations every day are unsung heroes and heroines. They should be recognised as such in their pay packets, which the Rail, Maritime and Transport Union is still in the process of finalising, not least for having to deal with the lurking possibility of a “one under”. That’s what’s so special about those guys.
As the comments in The Guardian point out, you don’t in fact get £50k a year because people die in front of you: ask a few nurses, paramedics or Marines how much they get paid.

Daily Mail Writer Nick Pisa Explains Amanda Knox’s Guilt
IN reaction to the Daily Mail’s now famous flight of fancy in its report on the ‘guilty verdict and failed appeal‘ [sic] against innocent Amanda Knox , our pal Tim Ireland writes to Mail clairvoyant Nick Pisa, aka Nick Pisa Pie. Pisa has also worked on the Meredith Kercher case for the Daily Mirror.
He offered in 2009:
With her wide smile and calm demeanour party girl Amanda Knox looks as if she is off to have fun yesterday – not facing trial for murder.
With a touch of make-up and dressed in a hooded grey sweatshirt and jeans, the woman dubbed Foxy Knoxy beamed as she was led into court, smirked while holding a book on the Italian penal code and joked with her interpreter.
You can read about that Knox smile here.

subject Your talent for inventionDear Nick,
Do you have any response to the evidence that you and relevant Daily Mail staff were prepared to go to print with [an] entirely invented accounts of events, reactions and statements that you could not possibly have witnessed?
http://www.mailwatch.co.uk/2011/10/03/invented-eyewitness-accounts/This is what I have prepared in advance;
“Oh, do calm down; EVERYBODY does it,” said a clearly emotional Pisa before calling his critics names and running away.
If you would prefer me to report something you actually said, rather than what I expected you to say, then please do get in touch.
Cheers

Amanda Knox’s Changing Looks In Photos: Damned By A Sinister Smile And Sex Appeal
SMILING Amanda Knox did not kill Meredith Kercher. But she did smile. If you want to look sinister, you tilt your head to one side and look up. Knox, a proven liar, was often pictured in such a pose. As she turned to look at lawyers and friends and family, her head tilted and she smiled. In the court of public opinion, a look counts. Much talk has focused of Foxy Knoxy being attractive. And that much is true: a black and less photogenic, Knox would not have been such a big news story. On Channel Five this morning, former Sun and Daily Mirror journalist Matthew Wright is leading a TV debate on whether your would have sex with Amanda Knox. The message: “Foxy Knoxy: Would Ya?” Meredith Kercher was strangled, sexually assaulted and her throat was cut. But never mind that – cop a load of Knoxy.

Innocent Amanda Knox’s Statement In Full: The Second Verdict On Meredith Kercher’s Murder (Photos)
DID Amanda Knox kill Merdith Kercher? Yes? No! Her 11-month appeal against her 26-year-sentenced for murder is at its end. She is innocent. She has been found not guilty. Forget the DNA. The ruling is that she and her lover did not kill Meredith Kercher. She’s been cleared. America wins! Italy loses then wins! Now…. show her the money! She’s served four years in jail.
Amanda Knox’s makes a statement to the court in Perugia. She speaks to the six jurors in Italian.
“Members of the court. Many times people have said I am the person (who killed) but people don’t understand whom I am. The accusation are completely unjust.I am the same person I was four years ago. The only thing different is what I have suffered. I lost a friend, a girlfriend, in the most brutal way in the most unexplained manner possible. My trust in the police authorities was betrayed, I have had to dealt with unfair and unfounded charges. I have paid with my life for things that I did not commit. Four years ago I did not know what tragedy was. I have never faced so much anger before.How did we react when we found out Meredith had been killed? I did not believe it. How was it possible? Her bedroom was next to mine. She was killed in our home. If I had been there that night I would have died. The only difference is, I was not there…”
………
“I trusted the police’s sense of duty and trust. I trusted them completely. I was betrayed on the night of November 5. I was manipulated. I am not who I say I am. I did not do the things attributed to me. I am not violent. I don’t have a lack of respect for life. And I did not kill. I did not rape. I did not steal. I wasn’t there at the crime scene at the time…”
………
“I am not who they say I am – the perversion, the violence, the lack of respect for life. I did not do the things they said I did. I did not kill, I did not sexually assault, I did not steal…
………
Meredith was killed and I have always wanted justice for her…. I insist on the truth. I insist after four desperate years on our innocence … I want to go back home. I want to go back to my life. I don’t want to be punished. I don’t want my life and my future taken away for something I didn’t do, because I am innocent and Raffaele is innocent, too…”
………
“I had good relationships with everyone who lived in my flat. We all had good relationships. We helped each other. I shared my life, particularly with Meredith. We were friends. She was worried about me. She was very kind to me. I have never run away from the truth. I insist after four desperate years, that our innocence is true and needs to be recognised. I want to go back home. I want to go back to my life. I do not want to be punished. I don’t want my life and my future taken away from me for something that I didn’t do. I am innocent. We do not deserve this. We never did anything to deserve this. I have the upmost respect to this court and the care that it has shown. Thank you.”

How The Islamophobic Daily Mail Spun A Lie About The BBC Banning BC And AD
HAVE you been following the Daily Mail’s news that the BBC has banned the use of BC and AD on dates? Did you know that the BBC has changed BC and AD to the more “politically correct” CE and BCE?
Chris Hastings, Melanie Phillips (who deep into her rant admitted that she herself prefers to use “BCE” and “CE”) and Peter Hitchens were all on mesage. James Delingpole agreed. Yep, the BBC was banning Jesus, and in so doing was letting in the Marxists and destroying the country’s moral fabric. The BBC said the story was untrue. But the Mail knew that it alone was correct – even if proof said otherwise.
We were given a list of suspects:
The BBC’s religious and ethics department says the changes are necessary to avoid offending non-Christians… Some of the BBC’s most popular programmes including University Challenge, presented by Jeremy Paxman, and Radio 4’s In Our Time, hosted by Melvyn Bragg, are among the growing number of shows using the new descriptions.
The Mail even spotted a Muslim:
The website for BBC Religion and Ethics, headed by commissioning editor Aaqil Ahmed, who is a Muslim, is littered with references to Common Era and Before Common Era
Those words replaced an earlier caption which said:
the Corporation say, bizarrely, the change has nothing to [do] with Mr Ahmed
The Mail has form on the news that the BBC is anti-Christian:

X Factor Victim Day: Luke Lukas Is Not Robbie Williams’ Son But Nu Vibe Might Be
THE X Factor leads the Sun’s news agenda, as it must on a Monday. News is that Gary Barlow and Robbie Williams are not cynical middle-aged stars using the X Factor to further their own careers as they snigger up their sleeves at hapless pop pretenders in a money-driven contest. They are in actual fact top blokes.
As we are told:
EXPLOITED – Gary & Robbie BLAST TV Bosses
Gary Barlow and Robbie Williams yesterday said X Factor bosses should stop putting kids on the show.
They spoke out after viewers saw them looking worried when Luke Lucas, 16, sobbed as he fluffed his audition.

Occupy Wall Street In Photos: Police Kettle Protesters And Newlyweds On Brooklyn Bridge
OCCUPY Wall Street In Photos: the revolution against corporate greed and other things will be televise, tweeted and posted on Macs. The movement has met at Zuccotti Park and on Brooklyn Bridge, where the brains of the New York Police Department kettled the protestors and then picked hundreds of them off for arrest. This might not be the best way for the State to bond with people peacefully protesting about everything wrong in America. But it did give one pair of newlyweds a good anecdote as they strolled across the bridge for a photo shoot in wedding garb. So. Not a complete waste of time, then…
