Anthem for Doomed Youth
2009-06-01 20:15:00 What passing-bells for these who die as cattle?Only the monstrous anger of the guns.Only the stuttering rifles' rapid rattleCan patter out their hasty orisons.No mockeries for them; no prayers nor bells,Nor any voice of mourning save the choirs, --The shrill, demented choirs of wailing shells;And bugles calling for them from sad shires.What candles may be held to speed them all?Not in the hands of boys, but in their eyesShall shine the holy glimmers of goodbyes.The pallor of girls' brows shall be their pall;Their flowers the tenderness of patient minds,And each slow dusk a drawing-down of blinds.- Wilfred Owen

Hyperinflation Here We Come:Last Gasp of a Doomed Currency
2008-09-14 16:41:00 Rather than solving the problems, the government?s bailouts merely confirm my worst fears, and increase the chances for a hyper-inflationary outcome. By nationalizing Freddie and Fannie, the government has merely delayed the crisis. The borrowed time will cost us dearly, as the day of reckoning will now likely involve much steeper losses. read more | digg story

Is FriendFeed Doomed?
2008-05-20 17:29:00 This is a guest post by Jarred Taylor who regularly blogs at Tropophilia on social networking and technology issues. As it exists today, FriendFeed is probably the most useful social tool on the web. I’m only a casual user, but its speed, simplicity, and solid feature set are impressive. The combination of a wide spectrum of supported services, a large and active user base, and powerful comment and "like" system set it apart from its competitors. However, it is destined to be crushed unless it is acquired by one of the bigger players. The recent announcements by Google and Facebook with their respective "Connect" projects present direct and deadly challenges to FriendFeed. These are but the beginning of much larger social strategies that these giants have been developing for years. I have written on my own blog about the differences between Google and Facebook’s approaches to their projects, but in their essence they hav...

London is Doomed
2008-05-04 23:59:00 From midnight tonight Boris Johnson will become the 2nd Mayor of London, and I really don’t know how he pulled it off. The only ‘advantages’ that he had coming into the mayoral race was his notoriety from certain ill-advised comments that he had made in the past, his wild hair and bumbling persona. Were Londoners simply voting for Conservative candidate Boris in order to stick two fingers up at Gordon Brown’s Labour government? I’m sure that was a big factor too. For months the newspapers had been heralding the mayoral elections as a two-man race between the current mayor, Ken Livingston, and Boris Johnson. There was little reporting about any of the other candidates, including the former senior police officer Brian Paddick, who I would have liked to take over the reins. So will Boris prove himself to be more than a wild-haired buffoon? I really hope so, for the sake of London. As Hammer says, £11 million pounds is a lot of money to control, and fou...

Fresh & Easy is airless & awkward, possibly doomed
2008-03-31 17:00:00 After opening 59 stores in which the consumer never has to touch anything that isn't plastic wrap (even an eggplant, because you never know when they might attack), British-based sorta-supermarket/Trader Joe's wannabe Fresh & Easy is halting its deathmarch into the U.S. to "smooth out any wrinkles." And by "wrinkles," they mean, "no one's going to our stores" and "smooth out," they mean, "and we're baffled as to why." BECAUSE NO ONE LIKES SHOPPING IN A GROCERY STORE THAT SMELLS LIKE THE INSIDE OF A STYROFOAM COOLER. You're welcome.

England Doomed: Institutional Anglophobia in the Police
2008-03-23 04:13:00 For years ethnic minority groups have accused the Police of institutional discrimination - now it’s the turn of the majority to make the same accusation.Former soldier, Craig Briggs, has wanted to join the Police since he was a child and joined the army to get some experience before applying. After serving 4 and a half years in the army he’s about to leave any day now and has applied to Greater Manchester Police.However, he’s been turned down before even getting an interview because he has the word “England” tattooed on his arm.A spokesman for Greater Manchester Police said “A family who aren’t of English origin who see England on your arm could feel you might discriminate against them. We live in a diverse society and try to ensure we give everybody equality.”The rest at Wonko's World in Englandistan

Is America doomed through lack of choice?
2008-03-15 17:37:00 Part One: John McCainYou can get anything in America it seems, it is, by all manner of definitions, the land of plenty. A bubbling, spitting, melting pot of every race, creed, sexuality, age and haircut. A shining, phallic beacon of Capitalism and democracy and surprisingly, and in no way significant, the largest population of Germans outside Germany. It is the undisputed Heavyweight champion of the world accounting for at least 50% of the world's military spending. It is the superpower and theoretically, the land of the free.Then why, as a federal constitutional republic with one of the worlds largest populations and budgets, is it still operating under a two party system?What choice do the American people face at the end of this year: John McCain, Ron Paul, Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama.John McCain seems to be obsessed with marketing himself to America as a conservatives conservative, constantly bleating about war, abortion, race and sexuality.

Smart Buyers Collection: Singapore property market is doomed
2008-03-04 00:59:00 Smart Buyers Collection is a collection of words of wisdom by various Singapore property watchers.By: SeanPosted: 4-Mar-2008Singapore property market is doomed to fall/decline this year and next year. The main reasons are as follows: (a) There are still a significant number of speculators (estimated at 30%) still holding to their existing properties with the hope of making quick bucks before TOP. Unfortunately, there will be 30-40 condo developments numbering up to 20,000 units which will go TOP this year or next year. Its real unfortunate that in 2008-2009, the global economy will not improve. There will be over-supply on top of the existing sales that we see on Classified Ads every Saturday...We shall also see pages and pages of auction sales or files for bankruptcies. As such, some desperate speculators will have no choice but sell their properties at the prices which they have bought in 2006/2007 to escape from bank actions. Banks will be more stricter on extending loans and thi...

Doomed to failure - Share Liverpool FC
2008-02-01 11:10:00 A somewhat unrealistic proposal to raise a billion odd dollars from about 100,000 Liverpool supporters, doesn't look like getting too far. The basic premise behind it is spot on, Liverpool supporters will be paying for the Yanks loans anyway (read: billion dollar debt once the stadium loan comes through in addition to their last one) so why not just buy them out instead.Their website (http://www.shareliverpoolfc.co-.uk) which is supposed to be acting as the focal point to check the feasibility of the project has already had it's account suspended, with a message advising to contact the billings department asap, if a couple of pounds can't be raised to get the website up and running, what hope is there for a billion dollars ? ;-)[Edit 02/02/08 :- It's actually working now]

The world is doomed. And god hates f*gs
2008-01-27 12:11:00 I recently stumbled upon the Westboro Baptist Church which operates the godhatesfags website, headed by infamous homophobic pastor and politician, Fred Phelps. It’s a small organization of about 70 people from Kansas, that frequently pickets military funerals, gay pride gatherings and high profile political gatherings to “warn people about god’s wrath”. Phelps believes that the world is doomed for accepting homosexuality. I’ve listened to countless interviews of the Phelps clan and the more I listened to them, the more I laughed. They justify all of their hatred towards homosexuals on the bible and on god’s will. Since we don’t know for sure who wrote it, then how can we be sure that it’s entirely accurate? Maybe someone tweaked the facts, because i know that if there is a God, then he loves everyone, no matter your skin color or your sexual preference. It just boggles the mind that the Phelps solely use the Bible to spread their mess...

Justice League Movie Doomed to Die? Hooray! - SendMeRSS
2008-01-14 18:09:00 Justice League Movie Doomed to Die? Hooray! I've certainly been public about my resentment of the Justice League movie previously. I don't think I'm alone here when I say that almost everything seems bad about the project (well, not the costumes). More than anything I'm on Christopher Nolan's side, where I'm worried that it will tarnish the brilliance of Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. But besides that, Warner Brothers is just doing it all wrong. They're making a Teen Titans movie with different actors (and thus different characters) and butchering it to hell with the typical Hollywood bullshit. However, an internal studio deadline is coming, and from the sounds of it, Justice League may be canned entirely! The Hollywood Insider Blog on Entertainment Weekly posted this update last week: "The ongoing WGA strike now has Warner Bros.' superhero bonanza Justice League of America in its crosshairs.

2007-12-30 01:13:00 I have many times and tonight was one of those times. I spent the afternoon at a park with the girl's and a friend of ours and her children. It was hot (85 but I really hate to complain) and it is December! I left my Mom at home so she could putz around and be alone in the house for a change. Sadly my sister, her husband and the 2 dogs left today...I hate when she leaves!

Redskins @ Giants: We're doomed!
2007-12-15 19:51:00 We're going to get pwned like a brick to the back of the head or so says people who know better than me. An ominously titled MSNBC article, Skins trying to keep playoff hopes alive vs. Giants tries to make it interesting by lieing, "However, the Giants realize beating the Redskins won't be easy..." even though it has apparently been quite easy. Source Bleacher Report reminds: Tom Coughlin's team powered for 411 offensive yards here in 2006. Even more impressive has been Coughlin's ability to outscore the Redskins by average of almost 20 points per game--and holding the Skins to less than six. ADVANTAGE NY GIANTS That cannot be right. Even so, Bennington Banner also appears to pick the Giants, even when they don't actually make picks: Washington (6-7) at New York Giants (9-4) The Giants are coming off wins in Chicago and Philadelphia, two teams ranked ahead of them in preseason predictions. They are only 3-3 at home, but have won six straight on the road. The Redskins lo...

Doomed! Doomed I Tell You! - Aaron Rodgers, Brett Favre, AJ Feeley
2007-11-30 12:28:00 Do you have injured quarterback problems? If you're like me, and you needed Brett Favre to lead your team to a playoff-critical win this week (son of a %$#ing ^&@#!!), then head over here (don't worry, cursing is encouraged) and take a look at who will be taking on the starting QB role in a few places: A.J. Feeley, Philadelphia - Is Donovan McNabb healthy? Nobody is saying, but McNabb didn't practice yesterday and Feeley is working with the first team. So that probably means no. Considering that Feeley threw for 345 yards and 3 TDs last week against the Patriots, maybe the Eagles aren't in a hurry to get him back in . The interceptions are an obvious problem, but there aren't many quarterbacks with 300+ yard potential on the waiver wire. He's still available in 88% of Sportsline.com fantasy leagues.
