A graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Law School, where he served as president of the Harvard Law Review, Obama worked as a community organizer and practiced as a civil rights attorney before serving in the Illinois Senate from 1997 to 2004. He taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School from 1992 to 2004. Following an unsuccessful bid for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives in 2000, he announced his campaign for the U.S. Senate in January 2003. After a primary victory in March 2004, Obama delivered the keynote address at the Democratic National Convention in July 2004. He was elected to the Senate in November 2004 with 70% of the vote.
As a member of the Democratic minority in the 109th Congress, he helped create legislation to control conventional weapons and to promote greater public accountability in the use of federal funds. He also made official trips to Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. During the 110th Congress, he helped create legislation regarding lobbying and electoral fraud, climate change, nuclear terrorism, and care for returned U.S. military personnel. After announcing his presidential campaign in February 2007, Obama emphasized withdrawing American troops from Iraq, energy independence, decreasing the influence of lobbyists, and promoting universal health care as top national priorities.

McCain graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy in 1958 and became a naval aviator, flying ground-attack aircraft from aircraft carriers. During the Vietnam War, he nearly lost his life in the 1967 USS Forrestal fire. Later that year while on a bombing mission over North Vietnam, he was shot down, badly injured, and captured as a prisoner of war by the North Vietnamese. He was held from 1967 to 1973, experiencing episodes of torture and refusing an out-of-sequence early repatriation offer; his war wounds would leave him with lifelong physical limitations.
He retired from the Navy as a captain in 1981 and, moving to Arizona, entered politics. Elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1982, he served two terms, and was then elected to the U.S. Senate in 1986, winning re-election easily in 1992, 1998, and 2004. While generally adhering to conservative principles, McCain has gained a media reputation as a "maverick" for disagreeing with his party on several key issues. After being investigated and largely exonerated in a political influence scandal of the 1980s as a member of the "Keating Five", he made campaign finance reform one of his signature concerns, which eventually led to the passage of the McCain-Feingold Act in 2002. He is also known for his work towards restoring diplomatic relations with Vietnam in the 1990s, and for his belief that the war in Iraq should be fought to a successful conclusion in the 2000s. McCain has chaired the powerful Senate Commerce Committee, and has been a leader in seeking to rein in both pork barrel spending as well as Senate filibusters of judicial nominations.
McCain lost his bid for the Republican nomination in the 2000 presidential election to George W. Bush. He ran again for the Republican presidential nomination in 2008, and gained enough delegates to become the party's presumptive nominee in March 2008.

“I have voluntarily entered a facility for the treatment of sex addiction,” the former X-Files star’s lawyer Stanton “Larry” Stein tells People. “I ask for respect and privacy for my wife and children as we deal with this situation as a family.”
Duchovny, 48, has been married to actress Téa Leoni for over 10 years and have two children together–daughter Madelaine, 9, and son Kyd, 6.
The Californication premiere of season two is set for September 28, 2008. Duchovny plays womanizing writer Hank Moody on the Showtime series.
Back in May, Best Life reported, “There was the time [Duchovny] confessed to a reporter about his fascination with hotel porn (’I like to watch other people —k’ was the exact quote) and rumors swirled that he was a sex addict.”
- Ovo je bilo vreme kada smo bili ponosni, kada smo imali nesto sto nijedna zemlja ima, kada smo bili napredni i u vozilu buducnosti....Nikad mi nece biti jasno zasto smo dozvolili da nas povuku u "medieval abyss"?
- Ovo je bilo vrijeme dok je bog hodao zemljom.
- "Za milion godina"!
- Ne zanima me ništa. Sad me stavite u vremensku mašinu, i zaključajte me u period 1984.-1987. i ne vraćajte se po mene. Tek sada vidiš koliko smo svi u... da ne kažem čemu. A kako smo jaki nekad bili.
- E, pa bilo bi super kad bi mogli bit jos jednom! Jogoslavijo, pozdrav svima yu iz Slo
- Eh...bese to jednom u jednoj zemlji
- Eh,da nam je sada samo jedan dan iz tih divnih vremena...
- Tad smo mi pomagali afrikancima a sad skoro oni pa da i pomazu nama e ironije haha
- Kako je nekad bilo lepo,kad smo svi bili zajedno!
- Da li netko zna gdje se na netu može skinut ta pjesma?
- Ovo me vraca u sretna vremena!!!
- To su bile najbolje godine.
Menjam plasticni facebook i fancy myspace za jedan dan sa drugarima na Bulevaru Nemanjica ispred bloka C3.
Juce sam napunila 35 i nikada ne bih menjala sarene i mirne 70`s i 80`s za vas 90`s i 2000`s. A deca ne znaju, nece ni znati. Bilo je sve petsto kec i bilo je sve Live Aid. Sve je bilo meko, lako, nezno. Rastereceno. A mi smo svi bili deca, i kad nismo vise bili deca. Bili smo naivni i lepo vaspitani, iz dobrih kuca. Roditelji su nam se poznavali. Zaljubljivali smo se i strasno patili, bili smo tuzni uz Dragstor 202 i cekali satima nasu pesmu narucenu. Dobijali petice bez mnogo muka, ucili i zavrsavali. Niko nije previseo brinuo za nas. Kupovali ploce i kasete u Jugotonu i jeli u prvim mlecnim restoranima.
I bas nas je bilo briga. Bili smo glavni, a to nismo ni znali.
ps. hocu da pokazem koliko sam tuzna pa malo i srecna sada, ali necu da upotrebim emotikon za to. Kako to da uradim?
Pictured below is Chris and Tara at the premiere of Sex and the City: The Movie at NYC’s Radio City Music Hall back in May.

A surprised Brad Pitt was awarded Best Actor in Venice today, collecting the award for his performance in The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford. The MC said, “I guess you forgot something here years ago. Brad, this is yours.”
He was a little surprised, as he made his way up to the podium to accept his award, and after the MC congratulated him on his baby twins, Brad laughed and said, “You can run but you can’t hide. It was an honor to receive this last year and it’s an honor to receive it this year. Thank you very much.”
Brad Pitt won the award last year for his portrayal of Jesse James in The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford.
The MC then offered up a yellow flower for co-star and partner in crime, George Clooney. Ha!

Pamela Anderson gets dolled up for a press conference to promote her new reality television series Pam: Girl on the Loose in Sydney, Australia on Tuesday.
The show premieres on Sept. 2nd on E!
At one point during the press conference, a fan asked for the 41-year-old’s autograph on his bum! He also grabbed a piece of KFC fried chicken as she signed it! (Pam has voiced her disapproval of the fast food chain.)
With regard to her show, she said, “I think it’s a lot different to be a reality show. [In] a reality show, there’s a beginning and a middle and an end and something happens. But my life is so sporadic and so crazy: none of its contrived, none of it’s made up.”

Each state and territory has its own legislature: unicameral in the Northern Territory, the ACT, and Queensland, and bicameral in the remaining states. The states are soverei

Australia also has several minor territories; the federal government administers a separate area within New South Wales, the Jervis Bay Territory, as a naval base and sea port for the national capital. In addition Australia has the following inhabited external territories: Norfolk Island, Christmas Island, Cocos (Keeling) Islands, and several largely uninhabited external territories: Ashmore and Cartier Islands, Coral Sea Islands, Heard Island and McDonald Islands, and the Australian Antarctic Territory.

Sve je nekako postalo sexier i provokativnije...Spotovi, general looks, pogled ka kameri. Nekada je sve to bilo naivno. Procenite sami. Meni se nekako vise dopada onaj miran i naivan svet osamdesetih...Kladim se da je svaka nova B H 90210 dobila silikone od mame za 15 rodjendan. Koliko smo samo cekali da Brenda izgubi nevinost! Iz nedelje u nedelju! A ove sa naslovnice Nylon-a mi deluju, onako bas kao ticerke. Anyway...serija pocinje a Brenda se pridruzila:
A third spin-off from the show (following Melrose Place and Models Inc.), focusing on a family from Kansas who will move to Beverly Hills when their grandmother suffers from alcohol addiction, is in the works. It will air on the CW in the fall of 2008. This new series is currently being called 90210 removing the "Beverly Hills" from the title to distance itself from the previous incarnation.
Lori Loughlin has already been placed on contract as a regular cast member, and it is known that Jennie Garth will reprise the role of Kelly Taylor and play a guidance counselor at West Beverly. Shannen Doherty is also returning to reprise her role as Brenda Walsh. It has not been determined for how many episodes any of the returning characters will appear in at this time.

A gentleman is simply a patient wolf
A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend. A successful woman is one who can find such a man.
Humor has been the balm of my life, but it's been reserved for those close to me, not part of the public Lana.
I would rather lose a good earring than be caught without make-up.
It's said in Hollywood that you should always forgive your enemies - because you never know when you'll have to work with them.
The compounded pregnantitis, it be spreading. Brangelina, Julia Roberts and now Rebecca Romijn. Or perhaps you speak perhaps of Marcia Cross, who had her twins at age 44. No mystery on that last one. She has said she had in vitro fertilization before conceiving her girls. And some other celebumoms may have had help as well.
"There's a reasonably good chance that some of these women had twins because of in vitro fertilization," says physician Judy Albert of Reproductive Health Specialists in Pittsburgh.
Why that conclusion? Find out after the jump.
About 17 percent of young women suffer from infertility. But for ladies ages 35 to 39, cases of infertility rise to 23 percent, Albert says. And what have we here? J.Lo had her twins at age 38. Roberts was 37 when she had her first two kids. Nancy Grace had hers at 48. Romijn is 35. Only Angelina Jolie, a relative spring chicken, had hers under the age of 35. She may have a pair of arms ropier than beef jerky, but she says she's 33.
For the record:
Lopez has denied in vitro procedures in conceiving Max and Emme.
British tabs have insisted Roberts underwent fertility treatments, though she has said through a flack that twins run in her family.
Per US Weekly, Jolie's twins did come via IVF.
And a "source" close to Romijn has said her twins were conceived without medical intervention
Grace has declined to say anything specific about how she got knocked up with her husband's twins at age 47.
One other thing you should know: Chances of naturally conceived twinnage do rise in women in their 30s. But only by about 2 or 3 percent, Albert says.
So, take in those stats and draw your own conclusions. I'd love to hear your thoughts in our comments.

Četvrtak, 21.8. Svečano otvaranje
I najzad odlican sajt: http://www.fsnis.org.yu/
Anticki amfiteatar u Ohridu...Prepun. Iznad poslednjih kamenih krugova teatra, cvetne kuce Ohridjana koji zive tu, prate desavanja u amfitetru sa svog prozora, balkona onako raskomoceni, uz kafu ili hladnu lubenicu...Dole, ambasadori, ministri, poznati i nepoznati, svi koji su mogli da priuste sebi vece uz otvoreno zvezdano nebo i miris jezera.
Inva Mula je Albanka, cerka je Anvi Mule, pevaca, rodjenog u Djakovici. Sopran je i dala je glas Divi Plavalaguna u filmu Fifth Element.
Od glasa se covek jezi. Boja koze, nacionalnost ili granica je nebitna. Glas je nesto supreme, kao sto tvrdi Luc Besson.

Angelina, who gave birth to twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline last month - was so affected by footage of the recent earthquake in China that she is contemplating giving a home to a child orphaned in the natural disaster.
A source told Britain’s Star magazine: “Angelina is devastated over the earthquake that occurred in China in May. She has been in constant touch with relief workers as part of her UN involvement, and even got her hands on photos of a few orphaned kids. “She’s made overtures offering a home to one earthquake orphan, or even two if they are siblings.”
Malo kasnim, ali Milorade, shvati me...i ja sam plivala kada si ti plivao :)
Zašto radim nego da mogu sebi priuštiti stvari koje volim, žensko je pravdanje za trošenje novca zbog kojeg često padaju u zamke osećaja.
