Racism goes un noticed at the Grammy’s
Current mood: aggravated
A rant about the obvious discriminating language used in rap music as that would take way to long.
This little rant is in reference to something I heard during Kanye West's performance at last nights Grammy awards. The line that bothered me was "you can be my black Kate Moss" ... now no-one batted an eyelash at this line which if reversed to something like "you can be my white Naomi Campbell" for example, and the rapper was white, it would have caused uproar, the entire crowd would've slapped their hands tightly over their mouths with shock at such a blatant show of racism.
But the line refered to a white person and and is therefore in the eyes of todays society not deemed racist, this double standard is a constant disgust to me.
Why is it ok for Kanye West to have a racist line in a song?
It’s a 3 letter word so why can’t I type it
Current mood: confused
"THE" is one of hte most used words ever but for teh life of me I can't seem to fucking type it correctly.... what the fuck is up with that, maybe its the drugs I did back in college or maybe I'm just thick.
Should I stay or should I go....

So I made a decision this week, one that I have been toying with for the last year. To leave PanAm ...that is the question!
I been at PanAm for 3 years and have put alot of effort into promoting female boxing and I've coerced my fair share of people into the ring and I'm proud to say we have around 10 female fighters as oppose to the 2 when I started. I assured them PanAm is a good place to start boxing this of course is true PanAm is a great place to start, however I'm at the point where I need a little more from my coaches. Regretfully this means that I have to leave PanAm, I have to leave because the next time I step in the ring I want to be fully prepared.
The long and short of it is you play soccer or baseball but you don't play boxing, you make a mistake and it's not a ball in the net its your head hitting the canvas.
So there it is I'm off to United Boxing, I'll still be teaching the Sunday classes at PanAm as long as I'm welcome.
So do you know what your name is... of course you do right? what kind of idiot doesn't know their own name, well if I hadn't come across a DVD by Russel Porisky I too would have thought this a bloody stupid question.
My name is Lisa Williams, however when the government refers to me as LISA WILLIAMS I answer to it. Ok your thinking so what we all do, but humor me check out the info below and the website its pretty interesting.
There are two "persons" identified in law. These are "natural-person" and "artificial-person". See Government Tricks for more details.
A natural-person is defined as "A human being that has the capacity for rights and duties". Note that the word capacity means the ability, but not the obligation for rights and duties.
An artificial-person is defined as "A legal entity, not a human being, recognized as a person in law to whom legal rights and duties may attach - e.g. a body corporate". Sometimes an artificial-person may be referred to as a CORPORATION, which is not always the same as an Incorporated Company. These subtle re-definitions are made in Statutes whenever the Government wants to change the meaning of the word.
There are many different types of artificial-persons, each with different duties. Here are a few different types of artificial-persons:
Whenever you read any Law or Statute, you must be sure to check the meaning of the word "person" as it applies to that particular law.
In order to implement slavery of it's citizens and control them according to its whim, the Government had to invent a system that would not violate a human-being's fundamental rights, but would allow the Government to "own" everything produced or gained by its citizens.
The technique used by the Government was to create an artificial-person (referred to herein as a CORPORATION for emphasis) for every human-being in Canada. As creator of a CORPORATION, the Government can demand anything it wants from the CORPORATION. As a legal entity, a CORPORATION does not have feelings and cannot be hurt. It can be subject to slavery and complete domination by its creator and the CORPORATION must obey its creator.
So for every John Doe human-being in Canada, the Government created a JOHN DOE CORPORATION. Capital letters are used to represent CORPORATIONS and COMPANIES. Lower case letters are used to represent the name of the natural-person. See Capitalization.
As a CORPORATION needs a business number, in order to do business, the Government assigns a unique business number to each JOHN DOE it creates. Such a business number is called the S.I.N. (Slave Identification Number a.k.a. Social Insurance Number). The creator (Master) can then track all activities of the Slave and claim ownership on all property and income of the Slave.
Finally the Government needs to appoint an Officer of the CORPORATION to run the day-to-day activities. Such a position requires a contract since the Officer will be held accountable for the actions of the CORPORATION. So, the Government tricks John Doe to become the Officer for the JOHN DOE CORPORATION by signing such contracts as Driver's Licence, Bank Accounts, Citizenship Cards, Passports, etc. In the Income Tax Act, the Government just decrees that John Doe is the Legal Representative for the Officer of the JOHN DOE CORPORATION and the only contract involved is the annual Income Tax Return (yes it is a contract for one year) wherein John Doe gives his agreement as Officer of JOHN DOE for the previous year.
Unfortunately John Doe does not know that he is an Officer for the JOHN DOE CORPORATION and must therefore follow the rules imposed upon JOHN DOE. Hence the confusion sets in because John Doe believes that he is JOHN DOE and therefore has to forfeit his rights and duties upon demand by the Government and its officials.
We recently received a copy of a letter from one of our readers (see letter) sent to the International Bar Association, and to date, there has been no reply.
"Whereas it is essential, if man is not to be compelled to have recourse, as a last resort, to rebellion against tyranny and oppression, that human rights should be protected by the rule of law," (Preamble - Universal Declaration of Human Rights)
An Immigrant's guide to Canada - Part 1: The Toque (it's not a condom)
Current mood: chipper
Category: Travel and Places
3 years ago as me and my husband were preparing to emigrate to Canada. My husband having lived there for most of his life decided to clue me in on the local lingo. The word 'toque' had come up in conversation when he was speaking to his sister on the phone.........having no clue what this was I asked him to which he replied "Thats what we call condoms in Canada", and gullable as I am I accepted it.
A few months later we arrived in Canada....it was November and cold. The first day was chaotic we had all my husbands family over and I met my niece and nephew for the first time......after the novelty of my accent had worn off a little they took thier leave and my sister inlaw said to her then 3 year old son "Make sure you put your toque on before you go outside". I looked at my husband mortified and whispered "why's your sister telling her son to.." but before I could finish my husband was in hysterics and explaining to everyone that he had told me a 'toque' was a condom.
So for all you non Canadians out there ......A toque is a wooley (thermal) hat (which you wear 6 months of the year if in Winnipeg), most English speaking countries just refer to it as a hat or in the UK a bobble hat.
