| Bill Clinton; "I Love This Rug". Was it cleaned after Monica & Bill Loved It?Thu, 08 Jan 2009 19:33:34 -0800 by jbranstetter04I love this rugIt's my kind of rugJust walkin' on itPuts a big smile on my faceIt ain't too tight, come as you mightHmm, hmm, hmm I love this rugWhy does President Clinton love that rug so much? Does it bring back nice memories of back when Monica Lewinski and he did curtain things on that rug that they never should have been doing in the first place (he was married)? What he and that woman, Monica Lewinski did in the Oval Office was the most disgracing thing that he did as President.I'm an arch conservative, and yet I used to defend Clinton against attack from my very conservative friends and family. I would tell them that he was elected by the majority of voters and that he is our President, give him a break. And then came that day, that day when Bill Clinton looked me and the everyone else right in the eye, and without having to do it, he lied to us. It was a bold faced lie!I believed him and I as usual defended him. You see, I thought he did have sex with her, "that woman, Monica Lewinsky", but when he told me right to my face that he didn't, I believed him. I told people that he would not stand up there and lie to us; that would make no sense. Needless to say that when I found out he had been lying to us, I stopped defending him from that time on until this very day. Now I spend my days defending Obama for the same reasons. I take a lot of heat for it, but it is just the way that I am; I believe in the election process. We need to take our loses as well as we take our wins. Jbranstetter04WASHIN GTON NEWSPresidents Lunch Together At White HousePresident Bush, President-elect Obama and the three living former presidents met for lunch at the White House yesterday. Media coverage of the gathering highlighted the event's historic dimension, and reflected very positively on the current White House and its ongoing efforts to aid the transition of power. USA Today reports that "in a brief Oval Office photo opportunity, Bush told Obama that he and his colleagues agree that 'we want you to succeed. Whether we're Democrat or Republican, we care deeply about this country.'" The AP says it was a "moment of statesmanship that tends to happen when presidents get together, no matter how bitter their previous rivalries." The CBS Evening News also reported a "friend of Obama's who said that he really took it to heart when the President said that they all wanted him to succeed."ABC World News reported, "Talk about a power lunch. ... Before lunch, they gathered in the Oval Office for a quick picture and remarks. But once alone, what did they talk about? Well, most certainly, the economy." NBC Nightly News reported, "It was apparently...Obama's idea to have lunch as a group, as the newest member of the nation's most exclusive club." CNN's The Situation Room referred to a "dramatic passing of the torch. Four white men welcoming the first African-American into one of the world's most exclusive clubs."The New York Times mentioned the White House meeting as a part of a story on Obama's stimulus plan. The Washington Post reports, "Douglas Brinkley, a presidential historian at Rice University in Houston, said the lunch was a 'smart move' by Obama as he faces a devastated global economy, skyrocketing federal deficits and ongoing military conflicts overseas." The Hill reports "Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs said the president-elect found advice he got from his predecessors to be 'helpful,' and that Obama is 'anxious to stay in touch with all of them in the coming years.'"Australian PM Bumps Obama At Blair House The CBS Evening N http://www.usnews.co m/usnews/politics/bu lletin/bulletin_0901 08.htm Related: five presidents meet lunch obama bush clinton carter love this rug monica lewinski cigar oval office scandal living former | |

| Jo Soares TDAH(DDA) - Ana Beatriz SilvaThu, 08 Jan 2009 08:53:51 -0800 by anabeatrizbsilvaPrograma Jo Soares - Entrevista com a médica psiquiatra Dra Ana Beatriz Barbosa Silva sobre TDAH (DDA) - hiperatividade -, tema do livro de sua autoria Mentes Inquietas. Exibido em julho 2003SINOPSEDistraído , avoado, enrolado, esquecido, desorganizado, impulsivo, agitado, inquieto, vive a "mil por hora". Estes são alguns adjetivos mais comuns usados para descrever o comportamento de pessoas que, injustamente, são tidas como preguiçosas, irresponsáveis e rebeldes. Na realidade, elas possuem um funcionamento cerebral diferente denominado Transtorno do Déficit de Atenção (TDA), caracterizado por distração, impulsividade e hiperatividade. Escrito com clareza, espontaneidade e muito bom humor, Mentes Inquietas soa como uma conversa na sala de estar de nossas casas, trazendo um alento ao coração das pessoas que por muito tempo se sentiram como "peixes fora d'água".

| Lakers vs Warriors 1/7/09 Gasol had 33 points and a career-high 18 reboundsThu, 08 Jan 2009 05:32:01 -0800 by kier0018Lakers vs. WarriorsGasol had 33 points and a career-high 18 rebounds to push the Lakers pass the Warriors.Gasol's 4th-quarter surge leads LakersOAKLAND, Calif.(AP) Pau Gasol didn't merely bounce back from a bad game 24 hours earlier. He ricocheted violently through the whole fourth quarter, knocking aside Golden State defenders and the Los Angeles Lakers' struggles with the same brute grace.Gasol had 33 points and a career-high 18 rebounds, Kobe Bryant added 21 points and the Lakers rallied from a late deficit for their seventh victory in eight games, 114-106 over the Warriors on Wednesday nightAndrew Bynum had 18 points and 11 rebounds for the Lakers, whose home loss to New Orleans on Tuesday snapped a six-game winning streak for the Western Conference leaders. Los Angeles also lost key swingman Lamar Odom to a bone bruise, trimming their rotation and increasing their dependence on Gasol, who had just 10 points against the HornetsBryant half-jokingly asked Gasol to make up for it with 40 points against the Warriors' notoriously inadequate low-post defense. The Spanish star nearly got there, putting up 14 points and eight rebounds in the final period alone while brutalizing Andris Biedrins and the Golden State defense.
