That Picture Of Rihanna - Continued.

Such a hot topic this one. I feel the need to hurl further spanners with regard to a lot of the days commentary.

How is it that it seems to be perfectly acceptable for photographers to follow Rihanna (and other female celebrities) around beaches and events to photograph, often in secret, different situations in an attempt to capture a revealing image. Like a bikini slip or apicture from above or some see through clothing.

But one picture, just one, of a genuine, real world occurence in a popular celebrities life and all the bleating starts about how she shouldbe left alone. About how its private, not right and how would you feel if it was your mother/sister/daughter. I re-direct you back to the previous paragraph.

Reality Check

If Rihanna was that bothered then the big story would be the pending law suit.

All that aside the amazing little 19 year old has a huge world wide fan base of people that care and want to know.

As previously stated; if it really bothers you that much, Don't Look At It.

That Picture Of Rihanna

That picture of Rihanna looking all beat up has sparked a fair bit of comment and controversy.

Initial comments were unclear as to it's authenticity both as the alleged police photograph and as a photoshop knock up.

A statement has been released by the police that confirmed it resembled an image from a domestic violence case they are working on.

Most believe the picture of Rihanna isn't a production of photoshop and I agree, it looks genuine and truly awful.

In general most real fans are asking that she be left in peace to deal with her life....yeah right....like that's gonna happen.

It's a terrible thing and no-one desrves to be treated like that. But domestic violence is terrible for lots of women all over the world and if Rihannas courage and determination helps at least one then that can only be a good thing.

Besides why should she hide away, she's done nothing wrong. Why not let the world see what the bullying boyfriend did to her.

If it's too painful for you then don't look at the pictures.

Julia Roberts children have been the reason the top Hollywood actress has been absent for a number of years. Julia Roberts wanted to devote time to bringing up her children and being a good mom on a full time basis.

But now Julia Roberts is in the comeback trail without her children.

Julia Roberts is promoting two new movies; Duplicity and Fireflies In The Garden which she hopes will put her back in the public eye as America's Sweetheart once again, so long as it doesn't effect her children. It seems family life is still top priority.

Born February 15, 1820(1820-02-15)
Adams, Massachusetts
Died March 13, 1906 (aged 86)
Rochester, New York
Occupation Suffragist, women's rights advocate

Susan Brownell Anthony (February 15, 1820 – March 13, 1906) was a prominent American civil rights leader who played a pivotal role in the 19th century women's rights movement to introduce women's suffrage into the United States. She traveled the United States and Europe, and gave 75 to 100 speeches per year on women's rights for 45 years.

On November 18, 1872, Anthony was arrested by a U.S. Deputy Marshal for alleged illegal voting in the 1872 Presidential Election two weeks earlier. She had written to Stanton on the night of the election that she had "positively voted the Republican ticket – straight...". She was tried and convicted seven months later, despite the stirring and eloquent presentation of her arguments that the recently adopted Fourteenth Amendment, which guaranteed to "all persons born or naturalized in the United States" the privileges of citizenship, and which contained no sex qualification, gave women the constitutional right to vote in federal elections. The sentence was a fine, but not imprisonment; and true to her word in court, she never paid the penalty for the rest of her life. The trial gave Anthony the opportunity to spread her arguments to a wider audience than ever before.

Nancy Kerrigan (born October 13, 1969, in Stoneham, Massachusetts) is a two time American Olympic figure skating medalist and 1993 U.S. champion.

January 6, 1994, attack

Kerrigan gained considerable fame beyond the skating world when, on January 6, 1994, she was clubbed in the knee by Shane Stant at the U.S. Figure Skating Championships in Detroit. Stant had been hired to assault her by Tonya Harding's ex-husband Jeff Gillooly and friend Shawn Eckardt. Following the attack, her screaming of the words "Why? Why?" became well-known and were even included in ESPN's Sports Century video, which chronicle the most important sports moments of the 20th century. Though Kerrigan was not able to take part in the Olympic trials due to injury, the USOC gave her a spot on the team with encouragement from Michelle Kwan, to whom the spot would have gone.
1994 Winter Olympics and Walt Disney World controversy

A month after the attack, Kerrigan won the silver medal in the 1994 Lillehammer Winter Olympics at the Hamar Olympic Amphitheatre, finishing second to Oksana Baiul in a controversial ruling that gave Oksana the gold medal by 0.1 points. Immediately following her program, Kerrigan's public image took a nose-dive. While Kerrigan and bronze-medalist Chen Lu waited over 20 minutes for Olympic officials to find a copy of the Ukranian anthem, someone mistakenly told her the delay was because Oksana was putting on make-up. Kerrigan then made the statement on camera that it would be a waste because Oksana would just "come out here and wreck it."
After Norwegian security had advised Kerrigan not to attend the closing ceremonies citing a lack of security for her, Kerrigan was criticized for leaving the Olympic venue to take part in a pre-arranged publicity parade at Walt Disney World, her $2 million sponsor. It was there that she was caught on microphone during the parade saying

"This is dumb. I hate it. This is the most corniest thing I have ever done."

She later said her remarks had been taken out of context: she was commenting not on being in the parade, but on having to wear her silver medal in the parade. Others have wondered if Kerrigan landed higher profile endorsements than gold medalist Kristi Yamaguchi because of the publicized incident, or her better fitting an "all-American" image.

Residence:	Clark County, Washington

Tonya Maxene Harding (born November 12, 1970) is an American figure skating champion. In 1991 she won the U.S. Figure Skating Championships and placed second in the World Championships. She was the second woman, and the first American woman, to complete a triple axel jump in competition.

She became notorious after her ex-husband Jeff Gillooly conspired with Shawn Eckhardt and Shane Stant to attack competitor Nancy Kerrigan at a practice session during the 1994 U.S. Figure Skating Championships.

Tonya Harding entered the world of the nude Internet celebrity with the appearance of a pornographic "Wedding Video" that showed her having sex with her ex-husband Jeff Gillooly. Gillooly, who, not long after the scandal, began to fade from prominence and changed his name to Jeff Stone, sold the tape to a tabloid show after having been implicated as a conspirator in the Kerrigan attack. Stills from the tape were published by Penthouse in September 1994, and the tape itself was released at about the same time. Harding tried to distance herself from it.

Harding appeared on a USA Pro Wrestling show in 1994 as the manager for wrestler Art Barr.^{[citation needed]}

In late 1996, Harding used mouth-to-mouth resuscitation to help revive an 81-year-old woman, Alice Olson, who collapsed at a bar in Portland, Oregon while playing video poker.

Harding has contacted emergency services several times to report alleged crimes.

Valentines Day

Valentine's Day
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Valentine's Day
Traditional symbols of Valentine's Day include hearts, doves, Cupid and love notes. American postcard, circa 1900.
Also called	St. Valentine's Day
Observed by	Christian and Christian-influenced cultures
Type	Christian, cultural, multinational
Significance	Lovers express their feelings to each other
Date	February 14
Observances	Sending greeting cards and gifts, dating.

Valentine's Day or Saint Valentine's Day is an occasion celebrated on February 14 by many people throughout the world. In the West, it is the traditional day on which lovers express their love for each other by sending Valentine's cards, presenting flowers, or offering confectionery. The holiday is named after two among the numerous Early Christian martyrs named Valentine. The day became associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished.

The day is most closely associated with the mutual exchange of love notes in the form of "valentines." Modern Valentine symbols include the heart-shaped outline, doves, and the figure of the winged Cupid. Since the 19th century, handwritten notes have largely given way to mass-produced greeting cards.^[1] The sending of Valentines was a fashion in nineteenth-century Great Britain, and, in 1847, Esther Howland developed a successful business in her Worcester, Massachusetts home with hand-made Valentine cards based on British models. The popularity of Valentine cards in 19th-century America was a harbinger of the future commercialization of holidays in the United States.^[2]

The U.S. Greeting Card Association estimates that approximately one billion valentines are sent each year worldwide, making the day the second largest card-sending holiday of the year, behind Christmas. The association estimates that, in the US, men spend in average twice as much money as women.^[3]
