Meanwhile Kylie released one single in 2007 that only went number 1 in 3 countries. Her album 'X' also received lacklustre reviews whilst Rihanna's 'Good girl gone bad' received shit loads of praise.So what's going on here? The fact of the matter is that Kylie got that award thrown at her out of sheer sympathy for her having gotten diagnosed with Cancer in 2005 and 2007 marking the first year she returned to music.

      Scotland Robbed of Euro 08 Glory
      With Euro 2008 qualification at stake, Italy showed the rest of European football why they were the reigning world champions. Right at the death, they snatched a 2-1 victory from Scotland, thanks to a header from Christian Panucci. The Azzurri made it through, along with France, and normal order is restored for a competition in danger of losing viewerships due to the absence of prestigious teams. After booking their ticket to next summer’s footballing extravaganza in Switzerland and Austria, Italy manager Roberto Donadoni fired the first salvo at his counterparts with an affirmation that his team has grown even stronger since their World Cup glory. He said: “This team can go head-to-head with any team in the world and not fear them. The Scotland game was an excellent match. Every game this Italy team play we add more and get stronger.” Italy took the lead in the second minute of play. A quick throw-in caught the Scottish defence off-gurad, allowing Luca Toni to toe-poke from

      Liberty Dollar Offices Robbed Blind by Thieves
      These thieves go by the name of FBI and Secret Service agents. I learned early yesterday from www.gordonunleashed.com that the Liberty Dollar offices were raided by the feds. They took everything, including 2 tons of gold and silver. If taking privately owned commodities from a privately owned office is not theft, then our dictionary just plain sucks. Why did they do this? It seems that no one knows the answer to that question except the mob bosses who ordered the raid. For those unfamiliar with Liberty Dollar, they run a competing currency backed 100% by gold and silver. This means if you have a Liberty Dollar note, at any time, you can trade that in for a certain amount gold or silver, or you can use it as a method of exchange like you would a Federal Reserve Note (US Dollar). This means that not only did the feds rob the owners of Liberty Dollar, they also robbed all of the people who had purchased Liberty Dollar notes, as at this point, they cannot trade their notes in to redee

There, Beinerman allegedly walked through an open door into the penthouse and stole items belonging to Dunst…” I hate to say she deserved it, but I lock my door when I’m in the bathroom so no one steals my incredibly valuable, 1st edition Play Station 2 console.

Robert's Tshirts (all of them!), some of mine, a computer, a backpack, cigarettes.. They took my safari jacket.. A bummer as my passports, UNLP, vaccination cards, international drivers license were all in the inside pocket (plus all the stuff I described in this post). And the bag with my video camera.

      Warning: these Witnesses will probably not rob you.Frankly, I'm surprised no one else has thought of this before.Police in the Dalarna region are on the lookout for two well-dressed young men following an unusual burglary in Orsa on Sunday evening.The men, aged between 20 and 30, managed to gain entry to an elderly woman's apartment after dressing up as Jehovah's Witnesses."Once inside the apartment, they pulled out a knife and forced her to hand over jewellery and money," said police spokesman Tore Strand.That must have been a pretty good presentation they used to get into the lady's house that easily.technorati tags: Jehovah's Witnesses, Sweden, phony, robbery

      Melinda Wuz Robbed
      Quickly, because my mind ought to be on my work - Melinda Doolittle wuz robbed and I'm madder than hell. Tonight's elimination SUCKED. Blake is cute and quirky and Jordin will one day be a fabulous singer (she's a bit one note right now.)But Melinda was heads over heels the best singer of the twelve finalists AND the final three. Jordin deserved to move forward. But Blake? Puhlease. Though I like him a lot, his voice doesn't compare to Melinda's.Thank you for reading my rant. Here is Melinda. And here is Blake. Is there any comparison between these two voices? No. No. No. Will Blake sell CDs? One or two. However, who will have the lasting career and Simon's backing? Melinda.Blake's predictable and tepid rendition of "Imagine."Here's Melinda singing "I'm a Woman" like a diva.Frankly, I don't care who wins Idol now. I won't be watching the finale.

      Billy Beane just robbed the Nationals
      The Braves had traded Ryan Langerhans a few days ago to the Oakland A's, a move that delighted, yet surprised many of us Braves fans. See, Langerhans has as much pop in his bat as an amputated leprechaun and was getting on base as frequent as I do something productive.So yeah, not the type of guy that I imagined Billy Beane wanting on his team. Beane hates guys that make a lot of "outs", and making outs has become Langerhans' strong point. He really does it better than any major leaguer right now.Either way, Langerhans was sent to the A's, and now, about 72 hours later, his ass got shipped out of town and sent to the Washington Nationals in exchange for Chris Snelling. "You just have to laugh. I've never seen anything like that," Langerhans saidYeah, what makes me laugh are your at-bats. So, either Beane got the wrong player from the Braves, or he knew that he could get Langerhans and then use him in a trade to fleece the Nats. I'm thinking it might be the latter...So now Ryan can

      Jamie’s family pub robbed
      The pub owned by the parents of celebrity chef Jamie Oliver has been robbed by five men brandishing hammers and baseball bats. The gang of robbers shoved an 80-year-old kitchen worker to the floor and got away with cash from the till and safe to the value of £10,000 from The Cricketers at Clavering in Essex. Jamie Oliver has put up a reward of £150,000 to help catch the thieves. A spokesperson for Jamie said, Jamie would hand over the money to anyone with information that will lead to an arrest and conviction. Jamie’s father, Trevor, had this to say, “About four armed men came on to the premises and demanded the safe to be opened. I wasn’t in but my staff were and there was one customer inside. I think they were pretty frightened. They told one man to lie on the floor and he wouldn’t get hurt. Everyone was pretty shaken up by it. The good thing is that no one was hurt.” Related on In Entertainment:Johnny Depp’s daughter doing much betterOnes not

      I Got Robbed!
      I’m going to hijack the blog for a personal issue, if y’all don’t mind.  Today, while we were all at church, my home had a visitor.  From his box, my dog Dominick saw and barked at the intruder.  He’s a witness… but, not a very good one. They didn’t rifle through the house dumping drawers and digging through stuff.  They went into the back of my walk in closet, and found 7 rifles that were in cases behind my wife’s clothes.  They picked up a dell laptop from the counter, took $23 cash from one of my daughters, grabbed a few power-tools from the shed, and went on their merry way. I really want one thing back.  It’s a Winchester Model 94 30/30.  It was my Step-dad’s first gun.  He’s a gunsmith..  guns are his life.. and he gave me his first gun.  Now some addict is probably looking to pawn it for next to nothing come Monday morning..   If anything is a family heirloom to us.. it’s that 30 30. I’m bummed.

      Rugby Six Nations - Wales were robbed
      Wales were robbed of a draw against Italy. The referee told the players they had long enough left to kick to touch and then take the line out, so they did that (because they were going for the win) instead of kick a penalty which would have given them the draw.  And when the ball went out for the lineout, the referee blew for time. A blatant contradiction of what he had said to the players. If they had known that there wasn’t time they would have taken the 3 points. The problem seems to be an unexpected result of introducing more than one referee - who is actually in charge of calling the time? Surely it is the ref on the pitch and if he has said there is x seconds left then there has to be.  It must now be made clear to officials that the ref is totally in control. So what about Wales? What recompense can be made to them? They most definitely have had a draw stolen from them - and in sport careers and jobs depend on results. Replay the match! italy nations lose rugby six

      UK Car + Home Insurance, should we have to be legally robbed ?
      United Kingdom Company based Insurance - Can we get around being robbed legally each year ? Who likes paying for insurance? Nobody... Here is something for you to think about... Everyone who owns a car has to pay insurance to drive in the UK. Why do we have to pay for insurance with a company? To argue this case, read the following: If you think that you can save enough money to cover your insurance for a year, then why give it to an insurance company? If you can somehow prove every month that you have a specific amount of cash, equal to an insurance policy available for you to withdraw at anytime to pay for damages etc. Then why use a company? Every year you have to pay the same amount of cash to cover your policies, right. I.e. Car insurance, and Home insurance. What happens to the cash each year if you have not claimed? Well to my knowledge the company your policies are with, keep all the cash, and maybe pay a bit a tax on it to the government. Why should you have to p
