A Queen in Chicago (11-13-1926)
2009-11-13 07:01:00 Chicago Tribune, Nov 14, 1926, p. 1. Guest Post from The Oldest Chicagoan Americans make such a big deal about royalty. Remember Princess Diana? But before her, there was Queen Marie of Romania. She made a tour of the United States in 1926, and it was front-page news every place she went. Marie wasn't Romanian. She was part of the British royal family and was married to the king of Romania. He was kind of a cipher. Queen Marie ran things. Remember, in those days, in most countries, women didn't even vote. Today, we would call Marie a "hottie." When she came to America, her reputation preceded her. She'd had some well-publicized love affairs, so...

Queen Fatimah of Libya
2009-09-20 11:43:00 For the first time since a very long time Queen Fatimah of Libya , the last living Queen from the Senussi dynasty was the subject of an Arabic newspaper report . Of course I understand why the Saudi owned Pan Arab newspaper Al Sharq Al Awsat made a report about the 91 years old Queen in exile in the same Qaddafi was celebrating the 40 anniversary of his co-called revolution which is a military coup to be accurate. Queen Fatimah has been living in exile in Cairo since the revolution in 1969 , currently the old Queen is in hospital , hopefully she will get well. I wish time will come and she will see the day her country without Al-Qaddafi. The former Queen has won recently a lawsuit against the State in Libya to restore her old palace in some Libyan city , I do not know if it were Benghazi or Tripoli but I know that currently this palace is the new HQ of the British Embassy in Libya if I were not mistaken. Here is a photo taken for her from several years ago along with an adv...

Un altro eroe, l'ennesimo assassinio inutile Dietro il sipario, nella pantomima Resistere C'è ancora qualcuno che tiene duro a dispetto di tutto? Lo spettacolo deve andare avanti Lo spettacolo deve andare avanti Mi si spacca il cuore in petto E il trucco si sta sciogliendo in fretta Ma io continuo a sorridere Qualunque cosa accada, lascerò tutto al caso Ancora dolore, un'altra storia d'amore finita male Avanti e ancora avanti Qualcuno sa forse dire per cosa viviamo? Credo di cominciare a capire Dovrei essere più affabile Molto presto mi lascerò tutto alle spalle Fuori è già quasi l'alba Ma dentro me, nell'oscurità, brucio dal desiderio d'esser libero L...

QUEEN LATIFAH WAS ABUSED AS A CHILD
2009-06-11 21:57:00 There is, however, one personal experience that she's now willing to share, one that she had kept to herself for years. For a short period of time when she was a child, Latifah was the victim of sexual abuse at the hands of a teenager charged with her care."He violated me," she says of the abuser. "I never told anybody; I just buried it as deeply as I could and kept people at an arm's distance. I never really let a person get too close to me. I could have been married years ago, but I had a commitment issue." Eventually, she opened up to her parents, who separated when she was young."When I was 22, my brother died, and I knew that I couldn't carry his death and that secret," she says. "I had to get it off my chest. My mother felt terrible. She was kind of a country girl, so she wasn't up on how slick people could be. When I told my dad, he said nothing." Latifah says now that it was scary when her father didn't respond. "He's a man of action," she says.Read more here and in th...

Sonia Sotomayor: Quota Queen of the Bronx
2009-05-31 18:17:00 Diversity is not a synonym for affirmative action.  Rather diversity is code speak for bigotry.  Affirmative action is a narrowly tailored remedy for past proven discrimination.  Whereas diversity does away with the requirement to establish past discrimination,   It is flat out racism, the dubious proposition that merit some attach’s simply by the trait of not being white.   When the ilk of David Duke argue that being white is somehow a virtue, that is racism.  Likewise when Sonia Sotomayor argues that virtue attach’s itself by the like process for not being white, that too is racism. Chief Justice John Roberts: “The way to stop discrimination on the basis of race is to stop discriminating on the basis of race.” Given the Robert’s Remedy, there is no why for a bigot like Sotomayor to ever help move her nation past the question of race.  Further complicating the matter is that Stotomayor is sexist as well, David D.

British Subject in Samaria Refuses to Host the Queen
2009-04-26 14:28:00 A British Royal Subject Living in Samaria Tells the Queen that She Is Not Welcome while Her Government Tries to Choke the Jews Economically while Denying Jewish Human and National RightsThe British position is in fact Racist. It continues the British policy during the Mandate period in Israel and during the Holocaust to keep Jews out of Judea-Samaria and to allow/encourage the Arabs to drive out the Jews who were already there, especially as expressed in the 1939 White Paper policy. Of course, British policy encouraged Arabs to kill Jews in Baghdad [1941] and during the War of Independence [1947-1949], sending British troops to fight on the side of the Arabs. The official British information policy was to suppress news of the Holocaust as it was happening and could have been alleviated.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Your Majesty, You're Not WelcomeBy edict of a subject of Her Britannic Majesty, Queen Elizabeth IIItem: The British Embassy in Tel Aviv has decided to boycott Israelicomp...

Drama Queen
2009-04-07 08:13:00 Been suffering from lack of sleep these past few days. The reason being? I finally got started on a certain Korean drama which I had always heard about, but never really had the interest to watch, due to many other distractions. Heh. And what happened on the day I finally started? I couldn't stop watching. It was only at 3am that I dragged myself to bed (albeit reluctantly & regretfully)... Haha! So which show am I referring to? It's... Goong @ Princess Hours! But it hasn't been an easy watching experience. I actually have two DVD's (one is from the Philippines and the other was bought locally), BUT... Both of the subtitles included are lousy. You rarely get a straight sentence and there are occasions where there's just a tiny dot instead of a translation. Many a time I had to try and guess what was going on, and the topic of their conversations.So fed up (and desperate) am I of it that I resorted to looking around for other DVD copies which might have better subs (a comple...
