Michael Vick’s Judgement and Career … Up in Smoke, Tests Positive for Marijuana

Vick: Bad guy or bad judgement?

Dog fighting, marijuana, what’s next for “Con”-Vick?

There has been a continued debate as to whether disgraced Atlanta Falcon quarterback is a bad guy or just an individual with incredibly poor judgement. The dog fighting charges against Vick are as heinous an act as there is. The visual imagery of the treatment of dogs that win in the pit are bad enough as compared to the ones that lose or are deemed not viscous enough to even compete.

Michael Vick supporters and apologists have stated that he is not a bad guy, just someone who used bad judgement. That might be the understatement of the year. I guess this is just more Vick bad judgement.

Aruba Get Trade Show Wrong as Well … More Bad PR for Aruba … Can Aruba get Anything Right?

Can Aruba get anything right? Does everything have to be some form of a shake down, where in the process all that occurs is dissatisfied customers? Aruba still has not learned the concept “the customer is always right” and that there are other places where people can spend their dollars and get treated accordingly. The lack of understandng that concept is quite stunning seeing that Aruba’s economy is based on tourism.

If this was a problem, the ATA should have informed the meeting planners in advance, so that they could have included this in their evaluation.   The action leaves a bitter taste in the mouth now and it has negative influence on a possible recurrence.

Will Aruba ever learn that sometimes its about getting anyone to even want to come to Aruba? Since the disappearance of Natalee Holloway and the bad PR they have received from the questionable investigation and judicial process, Aruba’s tourism has tanked. Aruba has all but begged and lowered prices to entice people to go to Aruba in lieu of forgetting that an American tourist went missing and vanished on their watch.

However, Aruba plays the nepotism and favoritism game again. This time its with set ups for trade shows. Aruban ministers have actually stopped the set up of a trade show so that they could have their own do the job.

According to rumours, a local company that wanted to get the job, went to the minister and told him about it.

Mystery at Sea Aboard The Joe Cool: Kirby Archer and Guillermo Zarabozo Arrested … Crew Missing

A bizarre twist in the story of the mystery at sea where two men, Kirby Archer and Guillermo Zarabozo were just recently rescued from a life raft near an abandoned charter boat 30 miles off the Cuban coast. Archer and Zarabozo have now been arrested by authorities and  charged with unlawful flight to avoid prosecution and making a false statement to a federal agent.

Archer’s charges stem from a January theft of more than $90,000 from a Wal-Mart in his home state of Arkansas. Both are being held in the federal detention Center in Miami pending a court appearance today.

The charges are initial clues in a case involving an empty boat adrift on a lonely sea, its crew inexplicably missing. Adding to the enigma were the two survivors found in the raft.

Art vs Child Porn: Umm … Elton ? Pictures Seized by Police of Two Young Nude Girls Belong to Elton John (Update: Elton John Pulls Pics)

Art vs. Child Porn:

Sir Elton John, this is a far cry from The Lion King. Pictures seized at an art exhibit by British police as part of a child porn probe do in fact belong to Elton John. The picture at the forefront of the controversy is “Klara and Edda belly-dancing” by Nan Goldin.

This has been an ongoing battle and concern as to the debate of what constitutes art and what would be considered child pornography. Many have been skirting the issue of the exploitation of minors for years under the guise of art.

The question has been asked for years, where is the line between nude art and pornography. The best answer seen yet is “somewhere between good and evil”.

The picture, titled “Klara and Edda Belly-Dancing,” shows two nude girls, and was one of 149 photographs by Goldin owned by the rock star.

John confirmed his ownership in a statement on his Web site.

Could This Really be a Picture of Madeleine McCann in Morocco, Why Are the Portuguese police not Interested?

COULD THIS REALLY BE MADELEINE MCCANN?

A possible picture and lead may have surfaced in the case of missing Madeleine McCann. However, “Portuguese police were not interested in her report because they assumed that Madeleine was already dead”. So why are the police not interested in solving the case?

A snatched picture purporting to be of Madeleine McCann in north Morocco was published last night, generating new momentum in the search for her.

Gerry and Kate McCann called last night for the picture, taken on August 31 by a Spanish tourist and handed to the McCanns’ lawyers yesterday morning, to be fully investigated. (Fox News)

New photograph shows child like Madeleine McCann on African woman’s back

The picture shows a light-skinned, blonde-haired girl being carried in a sling on a Moroccan woman’s back near the town of Zinat. It is the fourth reported sighting of a girl fitting Madeleine’s description in Morocco since she disappeared on May 3 but the first published picture.

A Spanish newspaper reported yesterday that another tourist saw a girl resembling Madeleine as she drove through the town of Zaio in northern Morocco at the end of May.

UPDATE:

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad claims that Iran does not sponsor terrorism, that the Holocaust ever occurred and now … “In Iran,we don’t have homosexuals like in your country” REALLY??? How many levels of hate could this man possibly have?

How Misguided Can Hollywood Get? Actor Kevin Spacey Meets with Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez

How misguided can Hollywood celebrities be?

“The Usual Suspects” from Hollywood are once again making their pilgrimage to Venezuela to meet with  President Hugo Chavez. This time its actor Kevin Spacey. So much for Hollywood caring about those rights of the citizens of Venezuela. It is simply amazing how Hollywood can rail on President George W. Bush, but some how Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez is a hero. Maybe Spacey and company would feel a little different if they mingled with the little people … rather than dictators. It is stunning and hypocritical that Hollywood celebs can over look the poverty and treatment of others.
