2010: In Memoriam

A small sample of those we lost this year...farewell.

Happy Xmas...

Santa Baby, slip a sable under the tree, For me.
been an awful good girl, Santa baby,
so hurry down the chimney tonight.

Santa baby, a 54 convertible too,
Light blue.
I'll wait up for you dear,
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight.

Think of all the fun I've missed,
Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed,
Next year I could be just as good,
If you'll check off my Christmas list,

Santa baby, I wanna yacht,
And really that's not a lot,
Been an angel all year,
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight.

Santa honey, there's one thing I really do need,
The deed
To a platinum mine,
Santa honey, so hurry down the chimney tonight.

Santa cutie, and fill my stocking with a duplex,
And checks.
Sign your 'X' on the line,
Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight.

Come and trim my Christmas tree,
With some decorations bought at Tiffany's,
I really do believe in you,
Let's see if you believe in me,

Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing,
A ring.
I don't mean on the phone,
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight,
Hurry down the chimney tonight,
Hurry, tonight.

Santa Baby

Merry Christmas, everyone...

Bah Humbug (continued)...

And another thing: when will they stop that bloody TV ad showing Becks & Posh getting "hot and bothered" in an empty lift for their "his-and-hers" perfume? Becks looks in need of an overdue shave, and Posh ain't no actress.
In fact all the current TV perfume ads are rather naff - sorry Beyoncé, you look great but your rendition of “Fever” isn't a patch on the original. As for Jude Law's perfume ad, that deserves a prize for the most STUPID dialogue uttered on TV...

But these banal perfume ads are trivial compared to Iceland supermarket's GODAWFUL Christmas TV ads featuring Jason Donovan. Showing those Iceland ads several times during a TV break just makes we want to avoid the shop for the rest of my life...
Beyonce advert banned for being 'sexually provocative'

Arise Sir Becks?

Bookies have reportedly slashed the odds on David Beckham to be knighted by the Queen in the New Year, after he received the 2010 BBC Sports Personality Lifetime Achievement award.
David Beckham receives Lifetime Achievement award

Bah Humbug!
I'm still baffled how 35-year old Beckham got a Lifetime Achievement award. But to give him a knighthood? Is the world ready for Sir Becks and Lady Posh?

Pass me the sick bucket...

Let it snow (the 2010 remix) - continued...

Christmas travellers face chaotic journeys as heavy snow falls across many parts of the UK, with hundreds of flights cancelled or delayed. London's two main airports, Heathrow and Gatwick, were forced to close their runways on what is normally the busiest weekend of travel during the Christmas holiday period, stranding thousands of British travellers.
Heavy snow and ice bring travel chaos across UK

Yep - the brief respite of mild weather is over, and it's back to the big winter freeze again...
Much as I'd like to join the debate about how useless we are at coping with bad weather (despite the UK suffering snow-induced chaos for the third year running), instead I'll warm the cockles of my heart by watching Charmaine Sinclair strut her stuff on TV...
Is the UK uniquely bad at coping with snow?

kristy Mcpherson LPGA

The highest-ranked player on the Duramed Futures Tour to compete in "The Big Break VI," Kristy has overcome obstacles in becoming a potentially promising future LPGA Tour player.

At age 11, playing with her brother she was tackled and an hour later she couldn’t walk. After months of seeing doctors, it was determined she was suffering from a severe arthritic condition, which confined her to bed for 11 months. When Kristy did return to school, she refused to use a wheelchair and instead was pushed around by friends in an office chair with rollers for transportation.
She later became a three-time All-American and twice won the Southeastern Conference Championship while at the University of South Carolina. Her collegiate high point came in 2002 when she won the SEC title and led the team to an upset victory in the tournament. Adding to her accomplishments, she was also named the NCAA Honda Most Inspirational Athlete in 2002.

Kristy competed in the 2005 U.S. Women's Open. And three times she has made it to the finals of the LPGA Qualifying Tournament only to twice miss by one shot. She won't have to worry about making it through LPGA Q-School this time, however, after finishing in the Top 5 on the 2006 Futures Tour money list and automatically qualifying for the 2007 LPGA Tour.

Erica Blasberg American golfer

Erica Blasberg was an American golfer who played on the LPGA Tour.

Blasberg was considered one of the LPGA's more photogenic players and in February 2006 Puma signed her to endorse and wear their clothing.ESPN radio once compared her to Natalie Gulbis, an LPGA golfer who did a swimsuit calendar.

Blasberg's body was found at her Henderson, Nevada, home on the afternoon of May 9, 2010, according to local police. As of her May 19 memorial service, no cause of death has been disclosed and an investigation is ongoing.According to an Associated Press story, Henderson police were dispatched to Blasberg's home in response to a 911 call around 3:00 PM (PT). The source of the 911 call was not released, as it is part of the investigation.In an interview reported in the Riverside County Press-Enterprise on May 10, Blasberg's father, Mel Blasberg, was quoted saying, "At first glance it looks like she might have taken her own life, but at second glance, something is very, very strange about it. We're waiting for the police to make an investigation."Missy Pederson, who was supposed to be Blasberg's caddy at a May 10 qualifying round for the Bell Micro LPGA Classic in Mobile, Alabama, told the New York Times that Blasberg had sent her a text in the early morning hours of May 9. In the message, Blasberg told Pederson she was not going to play in the tournament. A worried Pederson sent a text back to Blasberg, asking if she was all right, but Blasberg never replied.However, Blasberg's agent revealed that Blasberg's bags were packed at the time of her death.

On May 13, 2010, police in Henderson, Nevada, executed a search warrant for the home and office of Dr. Thomas Hess in the ongoing investigation into Blasberg's death.The search warrant listed an anti-anxiety medication, Xanax, plastic garbage bags, and a sample of Dr. Hess's handwriting.An inventory of the materials seized in the search of Dr. Hess's house includes two computers, a cell phone, two video cameras and a GPS unit. A computer and white trash bags were seized from Dr. Hess's office.Citing "sources close to the investigation," the CBS Early Show reported on June 2, 2010, that Dr. Hess spoke to Blasberg the night before her death and was the person who called 911 from Blasberg's residence.CBS also reported that a white trash bag, similar to the one seized from Dr. Hess's office or home, was found near Blasberg's body.Blasberg's father, Mel Blasberg, appeared on the Early Show on June 2, 2010, and denied that his daughter was clinically depressed, having financial troubles or was otherwise unhappy with her recent performances.

On August 24, 2010 the Clark County coroner's office ruled that Blasberg's death was caused by suicide. Asphyxia was cited as the primary cause of death with the presence of prescription drugs in Blasberg's system also cited as a "significant factor in her death." The Henderson, Nevada police said that no foul play was suspected in her death, but they issued a misdemeanor arrest warrant for Dr. Thomas Hess on obstruction charges.

And the next Newcastle manager is......

Alan Pardew set to be new Newcastle manager

So despite taking the Championship by storm last season, beating Arsenal away, thrashing Aston Villa & Sunderland, and knocking Chelski out of the League Cup, Chris Hughton is sacked by Newcastle, who wanted someone "with more managerial experience".
And that "someone" is supposedly.....Alan Pardew??

I really feel sorry for the Newcastle fans - looks like they've got their Christmas Turkey early!

Torah Bright Australian snowboarder

Torah Jane Bright (born December 27, 1986, Cooma, New South Wales) is an Australian snowboarder. She turned pro at age 14 and finished fifth in snowboarding at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Torino, Italy. She lives and trains in the area of Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. She won gold in the 2010 Winter Olympics in the half pipe.


Bright finished 30th overall at the 2005 World Championships in Whistler, Canada and was runner up for the World Cup title during the 2003–04 season.

Bright entered only two World Cup events during the 2004–05 season, both in February at the 2006 Winter Olympic venue of Bardonecchia. She placed third in both events, qualifying for the Australian Olympic team.

In 2006, Bright earned a silver medal at the Winter X Games in Aspen, Colorado. She returned the following year, winning the gold medal in the women's superpipe event. She is the first Australian snowboarder to ever win gold at the Winter X Games (11), beating Winter Olympic medalists Gretchen Bleiler and Hannah Teter.

In 2007, Bright took first at the Nissan X-Trail Nippon Open in the women's halfpipe, giving her back-to-back wins in two consecutive competitions. At the 2007 World Super Pipe Championships in Park City, Utah, Bright won first place, beating 2002 Olympic gold medalist Kelly Clark. In late 2007, she made the podium for both events in the Roxy Chicken Jam, the final event in the TTR (Ticket to Ride) Snowboard Tour, where she became the 2007 TTR world champion.[3]

In 2010, at the Winter Olympics at Vancouver, Bright was chosen to carry the flag for Australia at the opening ceremonies[4], and qualified for the number one spot for the final of the Women's half-pipe, despite suffering two concussions beforehand in training. Crashing out in her first run in the final, Bright was the first competitor to make a second run. With a successful second run, she posted a score of 45.0, which remained the highest score through the field's second run. Bright became the fourth Australian to win a Winter Olympics Gold medal.
