David Icke's marriage breakdown: He once claimed he's the Son of God and the world is run by alien lizards, but the story of his marriage breakdown is almost as weird. By Natalie Clarke Updated: 08:11 GMT, 9 January 2012 The audience at the theatre in Times Square, New York, sat in reverential silence as David Icke took the stage and made his great revelation. Our planet, he declared, is secretly ruled by a race of reptile-like aliens. These reptiles, malevolent in nature, sometimes ‘shape-shift’ into human form. The Queen, for example, is a reptilian, President Barack Obama another. Bonkers, yes. One of the reasons Pamela Leigh Richards split up with David Icke, according to her, is that he became suspicious that she is a shape-shifting alien Wherever he goes, thousands flock to see him. But there is one thing Icke has not yet talked about on his tour — and he does go on rather, sometimes for eight hours at a time — and that is the increasingly bitter divorce battle he is embroiled in with his second wife, Pamela Leigh Richards.
Or that one of the reasons they split up, according to Pamela, is that he became suspicious that she is a shape-shifting alien. 12 Hilariously Inappropriate Kids Products. Pop-up book.

(Video) Alexandra Pelosi wrote on Real Time with Bill Maher: Why is it that the poorest states in America are red states? It seems the poorer the state, the more Republican it is. The Census Bureau’s 2011 Statistical Abstract shows the GOP finds their strongest support in places where poverty and median household income are the worst. Case in point: Mississippi ranks dead last economically, with the lowest per capita income in the country, yet according to Gallup, Mississippi is the most conservative state in the union.
It ranks first in the number of people living below the poverty line: 21.9 percent of Mississippi residents live below the poverty level. Dominated by conservative politicians, Mississippi has the lowest tax burden in the nation but ranks fourth in per capita federal aid. In a state that wants to repeal “Obamacare,” Mississippi leads the nation in a number of health care problems. Read More: Real Time with Bill Maher 0Share 19Share. New Father Remembers Time When Baseball Wasn't So Goddamn Meaningful. EDEN PRAIRIE, MN—While stressing that he loves his 6-month-old son Jordan "more than life itself" and that fatherhood is "a whole new world opening up to you every day," 36-year-old Greg Henderson admitted Friday that he misses the days when baseball was merely an enjoyable game and not an almost endless collection of meaningful and profoundly significant life lessons.
"I've been a fan of the Twins as long as I can remember," Henderson said. "And it hasn't always been easy, either. But at least before Jordan was born it was an excuse to doze off in front of the television with a beer, not a metaphor-laden allegory for every single important thing in life. " While naturally preoccupied with the normal business of fatherhood, Henderson’s only baseball-related involvement with Jordan had, until recently, been limited to purchasing the baby a Twins onesie and cap and placing a small toy baseball in his crib. "This is really pathetic," Henderson added. 5 Things Biggie Smalls Taught Us About Love. Today marks the15th anniversary of Biggie Smalls’ death.

Before you pass your final judgment on me, I feel it’s only fair that you let me elaborate on some of my darkest demons.
I’ve actually tried to avoid the subject to this point, just as I tried to avoid those demons for half my life. I’d like to explain to you how I began to cook methamphetamine at the young and very impressionable age of 17. It was all unintentional, you see, and from the very beginning it’s not what I set myself up to do. I should probably begin by saying my stepfather was a convict. My mother met her second husband after my biological father by writing letters back and forth in prison. Anyway, he was released when I was 15 years old and he moved into our house (our trailer) that we — my brother and mother — lived in at the time in Clearlake, Mendocino county, northern California.. It’s probably hard to imagine, but this is all normal if you ask me when you live in a town like I do and did during my youth. Anyway, he led me upstairs and said, “We need to talk.” Myq Kaplan Gives Birth to a Stand-Up Joke. “You’re supposed to lay down your coat for a lady: that was a thing,” he said, speaking rapidly at the Broadway Comedy Club in Midtown Manhattan.
“If there was a puddle, and a lady was like, ‘I don’t want to walk across a puddle,’ well, let me put my jacket down, because the bottom of your shoe is more important than my whole jacket.” Despite earning a decent laugh, this was a work in progress: wordy and a bit imprecise. An hour later at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater, his fourth gig that night, he refined the joke, more patiently establishing the framework as a comparison between chivalry past and present, adding a crisper point of view. “No one sees a guy with a dirty jacket and says, ‘Gentleman,’ ” he said. Mr. The most underestimated quality of successful stand-up comedians is how hard-working they are, which became clear as this joke evolved over two months. Slight, with glasses, and typically wearing a rumpled sweatshirt, Mr.

Nation's Quadriplegics Immobilize On Washington In Support Of Stem-Cell Research. WASHINGTON—Having arrived in the nation's capital by the wheelchair-accessible-busload, tens of thousands of quadriplegics from across the United States immobilized on the National Mall Wednesday, rallying in motionless protest against restrictions on federal funding for embryonic stem-cell research.
The throngs of stationary protesters, who were unable to join hands, march from the Lincoln Memorial to the Capitol building, or hoist banners and signs or anything else into the air, called on lawmakers to subsidize the creation of new lines of stem cells from human embryos, which they sedentarily asserted could one day repair their injured spinal cords and restore motor function and sensation to their bodies. According to preliminary estimates, as many as 60,000 came together to metaphorically stand up for their beliefs. "For the most part, it was very peaceful," said U.S. Park Police captain Ray Barnwell, who confirmed no arrests were made during the day's events.

Virginie Montet/AFP/Getty Images. Why can everyone learn Portuguese? Are some aspects of our nature unknowable? Can you imagine Richard Nixon as a radical? Is Twitter a trivializer? New Scientist takes a whistle-stop tour of our modern intellectual landscape in the company of Noam Chomsky. Let's start with the idea that everyone connects you with from the 1950s and ’60s—a "universal grammar" underlying all languages. It's virtually a truism. It can't be true. That's conceivable. Ideas about human nature naturally crop up in your work. To me it's just like bee nature. In your new book, you suggest that many components of human nature are just too complicated to be really researchable. That's a pretty normal phenomenon.
If human nature is relatively fixed, as you argue, how do we achieve social and political change? Human nature is not totally fixed, but on any realistic scale evolutionary processes are much too slow to affect it. The media has been one of your big interests over the years.

Buzz Andersen is what we in the design world call “a total badass.” After co-creating the hugely successful Birdfeed Twitter client, and working on both OS X and Soundtrack Pro at Apple, Buzz came aboard the Tumboat in late 2011 to lead the platform’s mobile division. Equal parts philosopher and programmer, Andersen’s approach to and reflections on his work stand as an incredible example to anyone working in a web-related field. Cornered for a few fleeting moments outside the Tumblr hive of whimsy, Buzz discussed meta-currents in design, the often misunderstood role of apps, and Tumblr’s facilitation of a new romantic self.

Ilana Panich-Linsman for The New York Times Rescue workers from Heart 9/11 and other volunteers raised framing on Friday for “Manny’s house” in Glastonbury, Conn. More Photos » But complicated is just one way to describe the story. How Manny’s house evolved from blueprint to concrete-and-plywood reality is also a tale of generosity, organized through countless human connections that might have once seemed utterly random but, in retrospect, are viewed in Glastonbury as weirdly, perhaps divinely, fated. The short version goes like this: In mid-2010, Glastonbury decided to do something with the site of a fire-ravaged Marine Corps League post.
With that mission in mind, the town manager, Richard Johnson, contacted Vicki Thomas, the Connecticut representative of Purple Heart Homes, a nonprofit group that builds or refurbishes houses for disabled veterans.

Third Graders Reportedly Have Oral Sex Under Desk, Teacher Fired For Not Noticing. Understanding today’s rude teens. Today’s youths are out of touch with some of the fundamental principles of life because teachers, parents and social workers are worried about infringing the child’s autonomy and integrity, says researcher. (Photo: Colourbox) When young people have loud parties on weekday nights or speak loudly in the cinema, they’re using roughly the same mechanism as when other youths jump on the heads of random bypassers or share mobile footage of gang rapes on Facebook. “Some youths can only relate to the relationship they have with their friends – and that relationship is often a reproduction of themselves,” says Sven Mørch, a psychology lecturer at the University of Copenhagen, who specialises in youth studies.
“For these people the fellowship can become an extremely inclusive VIP club, while those who are not on the guest list are excluded,” he says, “In some cases, people who are outside their social network simply do not exists in their world.” “This is an appalling trend,” he says. Sven Mørch. Sometimes I Feel Like I’m The Only One Who Gives A Shit About Rich, Lustrous Hair.
Today I saw a woman whose hair had incredible potential. With a little effort and the help of quality hair-care products, she could have had glorious, bountiful locks—the kind any man, woman, or child would kill for. I do not exaggerate when I say she had a head of hair that was a gift from God. But it was all a tragic waste, because atop her head sat a nest of horrors: flyaways, frizz, dry ends. Pure natural beauty ruined by pure neglect. At times like this, I often stop and ask myself: Am I the only person left in the world who still gives a shit about rich, lustrous hair? Even at the headquarters of Pantene, a 65-year-old institution dedicated to shampooing and conditioning, I see the erosion of this basic aesthetic value. Many of my colleagues arrive at work each day with limp, lifeless hair. What kind of world is this? Are you listening? Do you not want gorgeous fucking hair?
Regardless, what kind of asshole doesn’t want a marvelous head of luxurious, flowing hair? The British family frantically &prepping& for the end of the world.
