Movie Review - Battle: Los Angeles

reviewed Battle: Los Angeles and gave it
3.5 stars: "I went in with low expectations and was entertained for 2 hours.
It's a neat premise, although not an original one. If you've played Halo before
and watched District 9 you've pretty much seen this cliche filled movie. That
being said, it's a fun movie with good CGI that doesn't h...urt the movie (
I find a lot of movies depend on CGI these days.)
Summary: good suspenseful
scenes with a predictable cliche filled plot that had me rolling my eyes at some
parts, but i don't go to Sci-fi films for the acting. If you like sci-fi and
like first person shooter games like Halo or even Call of Duty, go see this on
the big screen

Piggie Smalls - Pigs in Boots

E-MAIL THIS TO YOUR MOM: Piggie Smalls

By Michelle Collins

It was nearly two years ago today that we brought you the story of Cinders, a tiny pig so afraid of mud that his owners fitted him with small, green pig boots.  Remember him?

Of course you do. 
Well thanks to The Graham Norton Show on BBC America — arguably the best talk show on TV, for reasons not unrelated to this post — we have been introduced to yet another piglet in boots.
This is Clive.

Clive is an obviously British miniature piglet, whose owners apparently took some cues from Cinders and fitted him with small red Wellington boots taken off of a Paddington Bear doll.  He’s also #1 on my poll for “Things I would like to simultaneously raise as my own/Eat for breakfast.”
So once again, thanks England, for seeing a small pair of boots on a bear doll and thinking “I wonder if those would fit my pet pig” and then actually putting them on your pet pig.  Your insanity is the BP oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico that is my bloodstream.

Geraldo Rivera Accuses Bill O'Reilly Of Singling Out Muslims

During A Heated Debate Geraldo Rivera Accuses Bill O'Reilly Of Singling Out Muslims

In a story that you probably have not heard much about since it does not involve Charlie Sheen, on Wednesday, a 21-year-old named Arid Uka shot two American air  force men dead and wounded two others in Germany.
Uka, who is Muslim, yelled 'God is  great' while shooting.
State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley, however, did not go so far as to call him a terrorist, saying:
"We are looking into the individual who shot our service members. We're  looking into his relationship with others. I don't know that we've made a  judgment yet on whether it was someone acting alone or someone acting in concert  with others. For example, was the shooting of Congresswoman Gabby Giffords a  terrorist attack? I mean, you have to look at the evidence, look at the  motivation and you make a judgment."
O'Reilly called this "gibberish" but Geraldo Rivera disagreed and took O'Reilly to task for only labeling Muslims as terrorists, and not others who commit similar acts.
"Let's take Jared Loughner. Let's take the example that P.J. Crowley  uses. Now, if Jared Loughner and Arid Uka were both acting alone and Jared Loughner either said nothing or said 'You S.O.B.' as he then mowed down 19 and  killing six, would he be any different?"
No, said O'Reilly. "If Jared Loughner had said, 'Allah Akbar' and then you traced him back to a Islamic  fanatical thought process, he'd be a Muslim terrorist."
Gerlado also brought up Sergeant John Russell, who killed five G.I.s at Camp Liberty in Baghdad.
"Was he a Texas terrorist? A Christian terrorist?"
According to O'Reilly, he is not a terrorist because he was not involved with the global Jihad.
"There isn't a jihad for lone nutty gunmen in Arizona."
The argument got pretty heated and ended with this:
Geraldo: "If every Muslim criminal is a terrorist, what was Timothy McVeigh?"
O'Reilly: "If a pickpocket in Medina, I'm not calling him a terrorist."
Geraldo: "Are you sure you wouldn't? I'm not so sure."
It is an interesting debate and Geraldo has a good point: what is the difference between killing people because you are insane and because you are part of the Jihad? Is one act worse than the other just because it was committed by a Muslim?
Food for thought.

UFC 127

My thoughts on UFC 127
Penn vs Fitch isn't main event worth to begin with but I guess since it was in Australia, it was harder to get a great main event there. Regardless, the match wasn't all too exciting and the majority split decision was a joke. I'm not a BJ Penn fan, but I appreciate how humble he was when he admitted even he thought he lost.
Bisping showed no class after his match to Rivera, going up to him and calling him a loser. Rivera showed more guts than brains letting the match continue after the knee to the face when he was down.
Sotiroloulos, surprised me when he got out of the first round after the flurry by Siver, but the better man won by decision
