1988 : « The Danish little dictator », Prime Minister Løkke Rasmussen, financed Afghan terrorists by giving them 80, 000€ (300, 000€ today) to purchase AK47 assault rifles to commit terrorist attacks. It is he who is carrying the rifle in the picture.
During the Danish television program last night, he demanded that 6 minutes of my interview - where I speak of his terrorist past - be deleted. This is absolutely shameful for the "democratic" Danish Kingdom!

Kavanaugh is innocent. Ford & others are making accusations up JUST BECAUSE he's nominated by President Trump. Change my mind :p

I think Ford could be very well telling truth, but what’s worse is the negative attitudes and attention the very important conversation surrounding sexual assault and powerful men is getting. I think this could be a very telling indication of just how incoherent and separated the American people are now. I choose to believe Ford based off of her testimony (that I’ve followed all day because I’ve been home from school puking my guys out), but that is my opinion. It’s just sad that many of the people who celebrated Cosby’s sentence, then turn around and don’t even give Ford’s accusations a chance.

 

P.S. - As a student of psychology this hearing has been quite interesting.

The most disappointing thing about today’s hearing is that every American interviewed on TV appears to have made up thier mind days ago. What’s the point of this hearing if no one is actually opening up thier mind to hear what the two have to say. I’m still undecided as too how I feel about the allegations, but I’m against Kavanaugh because of his other testimony on his beliefs.

How are we supposed to change your mind when all we have is what's being shown on TV? There's barely any way for the likes of the FBI to really proof what happened and who is right or wrong, let alone a bunch of people on a forum :p

 

It's all a show anyway. In the hearing the Republicans were doing nothing but just stroking his dick and telling him how he is the victim, whereas he refused to answer almost all of the real questions and instead he just Trumped his way through by repeating the exact same words a hundred times.

By the way, the bigger worry about Kavanaugh is probably not as much the accusations (unless proven, which is gonna be incredibly difficult), but the way he handled himself. He made it painfully clear that he will always put his political views in front of a fair and neutral decision as a judge and that's a terrible thing for any judge, anywhere.

Kavanaugh was pissed off because of these wild, false accusations. How else was he going to react? Even his damn family was getting pounded with trashtalk. I think at that point he was determined to clear out his own name, not giving to a damn about some Supreme court job.

    • I love that it is more straightforward in relation to the number of quotas and does not allow possible problems as it was in Tokyo and Paris.
    • I love the judo qualification system, for me is the best in all disciplines. It combines a strong circuit, and it allows 100 or so countries to participate in.   So, maybe, if UWW does its job properly, it will be a good thing.
    • China Media Group (CMG) will broadcast all 116 gold medal events of the Milan Winter Olympics live on CCTV-1, CCTV-5, CCTV-5+ and CCTV-16. It will also use technologies such as 4K/8K ultra-high definition to enhance the viewing experience. Live broadcasts of all events will be carried out from 16:00 Beijing time to 06:00 the next day.
    • The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.
    • Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....     
    • The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.  
    • The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR
    • That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.
    • I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird  
    • So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind ,
