The Young Turks - Who Will Be In Trump's Cabinet
Cenk Uygur can become tiresome, but he was pretty good last night in their coverage and kept my attention well, i was actually quite impressed. I really don't care for the rest of the lineup though. The guy on the right is the epitome of impotent rage, stumbling over his words, making complicated points poorly, a fretting, nervous, often very pink man in an ill fitting suit. At times reminded me of the main character from Limitless at his drug-binge/mental breakdown apex, with tight claustrophobia inducing collars riding up around his neck, the crispness of which contrasting and highlighting the beads of sweat, speaking too quickly and spitting. The guy on the left thinks he's 10 times cooler than he is, which is all the more annoying because he is actually a little bit cool - if he didn't think he was so cool, he'd be pretty cool! I could handle Sarkeezian's imperious hauteur - hell i'd find it very attractive - if it wasn't so obviously an act. She found herself compelled to leave the studio for a stiff drink at some point, presumably to bask in the moment when she theatrically interrupted the depleted panel and announced her actions proudly, claiming she was now in a feisty mood before ranting at types of people she blamed. I even think she used some kind of tv-friendly profanity; if you have the wherewithal to soft-censor your 'uncontrolled' outburst, you're faking it. Whatever kind of Don Draper scene she'd staged to pad her portfolio of career highlights, her disappointing final rant meandered down well trodden paths.
Derek Redmond finishing the 400m in Barcelona 1992 Olympics.
Derek Redmond (born September 3, 1965 in Bletchley) is a retired English athlete. He currently works as a motivational speaker.
As a 400 metres and 4 x 400 metres runner he won gold medals at European, Commonwealth and World Championships. His career highlights include a fifth place over 400 m at the 1987 World Championships and a 1991 World Championships 4x400 m gold medal. His career was often interrupted by injury, most notably when he broke down during the Barcelona Olympics with a hamstring injury. However, with the help of his father, Redmond hobbled the last 250 metres to complete the race while a crowd of 65,000 cheered on.
