Woah there! Is that Nicole Kidman looking like a frozen hyena getting strangled?

Why didn't Nicole Kidman applaud? Cold-hearted bitch.

She was not programmed to laugh at that point in the awards show. Could've been a programming error, or maybe they were trying to save on fuel. I heard she runs on diesel.

Skyscraper is a 1996 direct-to-video movie starring Anna Nicole Smith. [...] The movie's plot borrows heavily from the film Die Hard with Smith taking the lead role.


Critical reception

The film was utterly derided as being nothing other than 'soft-porn' when it was released, plus some observed that Anna appeared to have gained some weight compared to her Playboy Playmate days, but has acquired some reputation as a camp-classic in recent years.

Sadly, not on Netflix.

I think we're going down a slippery slope...

P.S. What do you guys think - should I post this one? Or is it too pornographic?

Oldie - and a goodie. Have had the idea to post this many times over, yet I obviously never had the balls - so I salute you, gwiz Although if memory serves, the complete video used to be some ~20min or so - before the actual demonstration the guy talked at length about proper approach, preferred diet (e.g. pumpkin seeds), etc.

P.S. What do you guys think - should I post this one? Or is it too pornographic?

They forgot...

The Firm (outruns hitmen and other lawyers)
All the Right Moves (outruns football players)
Far and Away (outruns Nicole Kidman)

Haven't seen you around in a while, Nicole. What a beautiful return Thanks a lot!

It's because Fox news sucks WP. In comparison, the other news sources don't seem to suck as much
I suggest that is because you aren't looking at them critically because you like what they are saying and so you've chosen to put your blinders on. Since Fox's bias is one you DISlike then you are hyper-sensitive to it, and you choose at that point to take the blinders off.

Any bias is bad in the news (ideally). I dont think that it's just that I don't disagree with the bias, just that it's SO BLATANT.


EXACTLY!
the fourth estate is a failed institution,brought to all of us in part by the machinations of one michael powell,head of the FCC in 1993,and media conglomerates wanting to monopolize ALL media.
ruper murdoch is only ONE in a small group of FIVE that own ALL of american media.
that is one mighty big bullhorn,one which i choose to not listen to.

what i find ironic in mr pennypackers comments is this:
he states that he does not buy into the polemic(us vs them)and then uses a POLEMIC to make his case against the so-called "neo-libs"(really mr pennypacker,look the definition up please)on videosift.
hypocrisy? you betcha...

i do wholeheartedly agree that there is an US vs THEM,but not in the way the corporate media likes to portray it:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservative
on one side,and
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_liberalism
on the other.
this is a media created polemic,a falsely created juxtposition that does not have the inherent divisiveness that we have been forced to accept over the years.
the real US is the average person,doing there best to survive in a seemingly more volatile world.most of US dont have time to vette every story we see on the news.this is a basic fundamental question of trust:do we "trust" corporate news?
answer:no..we dont.they as an institution have failed to instill the necessary ingredients for trust.at one time they did,but in the late 70's news went from "non-profit" to "profit",and since we have seen a devolution of news quality and veracity.thats why we see 24 hr coverage of anna nicoles death and not more pertinent news pieces.we are partly to blame for this digression.
THEM are those who seek to gain profit and political influence by manipulating the masses.FOX news is the most egregious benefactors of this type of malfeasance,led by one rupert murdoch.while not alone in media machinations,they are by far the worst offenders.

whenever i see comments about corporate media i think of this short video,if you have not seen,or read noam chomsky's "manufacturing consent" watch this vid.it states quite well my thoughts:

thank you and good night

This is great. The same affliction applies to the medical field and anything else for that matter. People are just so sure of themselves, an open mind would go a long way.

We have some really old medical texts attributing all illness to "humours", vapor like gasses.
Here's a great quote as a rebuttal when the idea of bacteria came around:

"The facts on which the Bacteriologist build need not be, and are not, denied. Specific Bacteria do exist, and they do more or less serve to convey disease, but adequate investigation compels some of the first medical authorities in the world to consider the inference of the Bacteriologists that infective diseases are usually conveyed by Bacteria utterly delusive; because they find that the universal efficient cause of the whole group of infective diseases is some form of miasmatic volatile poison, which on entering the human system, or any other animal system, produces the disease, and at the same time produces the Bacteria characteristic of the disease, a part of the poison, and probably a very small part only, being made up into the microscopic parcels which the Bacteria are." ~ Dr. John Nicol , a most esteemed correspondent, editor of The Beacon at Tioga Center, N.Y. June, 1895
