Personally, I'm Starting to Get a Bad Feeling About the Oscar--Reeva Story


  1. OSCAR PISTORIUS
.........copied from    the telegraph.co.uk

Oscar Pistorius 'was told to back off from Reeva Steenkamp'

Oscar Pistorius subjected Reeva Steenkamp to such intense emotional pressure in the early days of the relationship that her best friend's father was forced to warm him to "back off".

Cyril Myers, who Miss Steenkamp lived with in Johannesburg said he had found Pistorius to be "very moody" as he wooed the young model who felt caged in by his attentions.
"Very nice and charming to us when they started dating. Then he always came in to say hello. But when they began to date steadily, he just dropped her and picked her up.
"That's not right. I call it respect. If you're in a relationship and you pick up the 'daughter' in the house, at least come in and say hello." After the couple's first date, Pistorius "would not leave her alone", Mr Myers said.

"He kept pestering her, phoning and phoning and phoning her. Oscar was hasty and impatient and very moody – that's my impression of him.
"She told me he pushed her a bit into a corner. She felt caged in. I told her I would talk to him. I told him not to force himself on her. Back off.
"He agreed, but his face showed me what he was thinking: 'Oh, this guy is talking nonsense'."
Mr Myers described his anger when he heard about Reeva's death, and that it was Pistorius who had killed her.
"She was my little girl, and he shot her four times from behind a closed door. One shot may have been a mistake – but four times?," he said.
"I have a printing business, and I had large, framed photographs of Oscar and myself. I smashed them all. I don't want to know anything about him.
Miss Steenkamp had lived with Mr Myers, a commercial printer, and his wife Desi since September, and the couple's daughter Kim was the model's closest friend in the city.

He said the Paralympian would have to live with his conscience regardless of the outcome of the forthcoming trial.
"I wouldn't do anything to him, because when it's finished and done, he must live with it. I hope he gets a long sentence. Gets what he deserves.
"People will stay away from him now. Women too, they will be too afraid, no girl wants her a**e shot off. And if my daughter wanted to go out with him, the pawpaw would hit the proverbial fan." Mr Myers said he had decided to talk to the newspaper because, "everywhere you go, it's just Oscar, Oscar".
"But Reeva was the victim, her voice must be heard too. People must know who Reeva Steenkamp was," he said.
did not originally plan to stay with Oscar Pistorius the night she died but changed her mind because it became too late for her to drive home safely, her best friend's father has said.

Miss Steenkamp, who grew up in Port Elizabeth, used to introduce him to her friends as her "Joburg dad".
"I've got this thing with all three children (Reeva, and his daughters, Kim and Gina), if they don't come home at night, they must text me," Mr Myers told South Africa's City Press newspaper.
"Then Reeva sent the (SMS) message: 'Hi guys, I'm too tired. It's too far to drive. I'm sleeping at Oscar's tonight. See you tomorrow'.
"Tomorrow never dawned for her I have nightmares at night thinking how frightened she must have been. Can you imagine how terrified she was?"
Police asked Mr Myers, his daughter, Kim, and his son, David, formally to identify Miss Steenkamp's body the morning that she was killed.
"We looked at her through a glass window. She was . . . you know . . . the way someone looks who has been shot . . . The police tried to make it easier for us," he said.
He did not describe Miss Steenkamp's injuries further. Police on Sunday denied reports that Pistorius used a cricket bat found at his house to assault his girlfriend before shooting her.
Mr Myers, who identified Miss Steenkamp's body, told the Daily Telegraph that he was "surprised" by reports that she had been assaulted with a cricket bat.
"When I identified Reeva, I saw no indication of that", he said. "The first I knew about it was when I read it in the papers. I do not know where that came from".
No such evidence was entered by the prosecution during pre-trial proceedings to decide if Pistorius would be granted bail, even though it would likely have affected the magistrate's ruling.

cl.......to me this story has many of the hallmarks of domestic violence........

Bill O'Reilly--Crusin' for a Brusin'

taking bets.....who will lay out bill o. first, James or Mary?  Mary does not suffer fools easily........need I say more?

I think James is trying to hold back and not embarrass bill right off the bat, maybe he will cut him a little slack until he can't stand it any longer........

But what about Mary Matalin...I have never seen her take it from anyone.   She knows  her  facts and she knows  the point she  is trying to make expertly.......it's just a matter if time.....

I'm saying it's  just a waiting game before she has  to straighten out the facts according to Bill O'Reilly.

On the other hand James Carville just can't get on the air of his new  channel, Fox News, and lay Bill O'Reilly out the first  day.....how long can  James suffer morality according to bill O?

What do you think?

Right now my money is on Mary but I do think we  have to wait  just a little while  to see what happens before the fighting begins.

I just can't see Mary Matalin putting up with the condescending Bill O. regardless of his political party.

here is a little hint from mediaite:



O’Reilly And Carville Clash Over Whether Clinton Cared More About Economy, Debt Than Obama Does

VIDEO» 90 comments

Bill O’Reilly continued his theme of what the biggest problem facing the country today is withJames Carville. Carville cited a general economic trend downward since the 1970s and unemployment. After a brief clash, O’Reilly brought up Carville’s former boss, Bill Clinton, and challenged him on the difference in economic outlook between Clinton and President Obama. Carville disputed that, saying their only major difference is on style.
Carville said that the economy is slowly but steadily improving, which led to him and O’Reilly briefly clashing over exactly how much better the economy is getting and exactly where health care cuts are coming from.
O’Reilly then turned to the Clinton issue, saying that the former Democratic president had a “very responsible fiscal policy” and didn’t try to “micromanage” the private sector. He accused Obama of being the biggest spending president in history and claimed at least Clinton cared more about the national debt. Carville argued that a key difference between the two presidencies is that the economy was starting to grow when Clinton got into office, but not with Obama.
But Carville maintained that by and large Clinton and Obama have similar economic beliefs. He said both favor raising taxes on the wealthy, both worked on getting health care reform done, and both signed free trade agreements. If anything, Carville said, the only difference between them is on style. O’Reilly insisted they have a fundamentally different economic philosophy. Carville pushed back, saying that Obama most likely just believes in “aggressive government during a downturn.”

My Favorite Power Pundits, James Carville and Mary Matalin--It's Just A Matter Of Time......


from mediaite........


Why James Carville And Mary Matalin Are Leaving CNN…

VIDEO» 16 comments
When it was first announced that husband and wife political odd couple James Carville and Mary Matalin were leaving CNN, all speculation indicated that new president Jeff Zucker was pushing them out to make room for new blood at the network. But according to Carville, there may have been a more logistical reason for their departure.
Appearing this morning from their hometown of New Orleans ahead of Sunday’s Super Bowl on CBS This Morning, Carville told host Norah O’Donnell“what CNN said was they wanted contributors to be there on set.” Finishing her husband’s sentence, Matalin chimed in, “which makes sense.”
“It makes total sense,” Carville continued. “It’s a good strategy, but it’s a strategy we can’t fulfill.” For years, the pair has regularly appeared on CNN remotely from New Orleans, but now apparently the new management is insisting that contributors appear from CNN’s sets in New York and Washington.
Charlie Rose, no doubt sensing the duo’s reluctance to discuss the issue said “tell them to bring the set to New Orleans,” before changing to subject to Hillary Clinton‘s upcoming memoir.
Watch video below, via CBS:

from chloelouise.........
I'm saying this may turn out to be very interesting........how long will this power couple put up with the political facts according to the O'Reilly interpretation .....I don't think he can shut either one of them down....Repub or Dem,  they are both extremely skilled and knowledgeable......It's just a matter of time.......

Why I Want To Divorce My Mother And Marry My Cat


I love you Chlo-Chlo.......


Chlo Langen........a cat and my best friend




Edward Gorey's 88th Birthday


Why I Want To Divorce My Mother And Marry My Cat


Well, they both are really old.

They are both ever so slightly insane.

They are often mixed up and don't really know where they are but neither one will admit it.

Obviously, very crabby and set in their ways--both.

Each think they are always right--not think, they know they are right.

Each run off when questioned--as if they have an appointment.

both parties refuse to venture out of their familiar space......make up stories about impending engagements...

Of course, varying degrees of hearing and vision impairment exist in each case.

mother does not know a nickel from a dime.

Chloe does not know a nickel from a dime.

Arrogance is a global problem.


The difference:

My cat loves me and cares if I have a bad day--she always has, mother never has.

My Chlo-Chlo appreciates the way I try to take care of her.

Mother is taking care of herself--just like she did in 1942.

Chloe is sooooo beautiful.

Chloe loves just being together.

Chloe thinks I am doing a really good job of taking care of her even if I forget her and spend too much time on my comp.

Chloe wound never stop loving me.

Carville vs O'Reilly--Can This Marriage Last?

 Carville vs O'Reilly--Can This Marriage Last?

What do you think of the marriage of James Carville and Bill O'Reilly??????

 How long can this marriage last--I think the seeds of turmoil have already been planted.  We had just a little hint of what may  happen last evening when James and Bill butted heads over medicare.

James is only going to put up with the facts according to O'Reilly for so long before the verbal boxing match begins.

He will be thrown out fast once his  facts are correct and Bill is wrong and James refuses to back down.  I think we may be in for a really good show.  What do you think.......


why did James Carville jump over to Fox.....let the games begin.....

Tenisha Taylor Bell, Special to CNN, on Chicago Violence

Chicago's violence took my dad, friends

By Tenisha Taylor Bell, Special to CNN
updated 12:22 PM EST, Fri February 15, 2013
Tenisha Bell's mother and father Velma and Ezekiel Taylor. Bell's father was shot and killed in Chicago when she was 5.
Tenisha Bell's mother and father Velma and Ezekiel Taylor. Bell's father was shot and killed in Chicago when she was 5.

STORY HIGHLIGHTS
  • President Obama's visit to Chicago brings attention to city's extreme gun violence
  • Tenisha Bell grew up on South Side; her dad and two friends were shot and killed there
  • Bell worked hard at school, fled Chicago and will never live in her hometown again
  • Bell credits her mom for her success; says kids need education, mentors, jobs
Editor's note: Tenisha Bell is an executive producer at CNN and president of the Atlanta Association of Black Journalists.
(CNN) -- President Obama is visiting my hometown of Chicago -- the city I hate to love.
The president's visit focuses attention on gun violence, and comes soon after the funeral of Hadiya Pendleton, the 15-year-old who was shot down in Chicago after participating in the president's inauguration festivities.
I know way too much about urban gun violence; three people I love were shot and killed, like Hadiya, on Chicago's streets.

I grew up on the South Side in the late '70s and early 80s. I was very young, but I recall the evening of my dad's death vividly. We had a green phone mounted on our kitchen wall. One night as my mom and I were sleeping in her bed, the phone rang. My mom awoke and went to the kitchen to answer.
She leaned against the wall, that green phone in her hand, with a look of despair and horror as her sister-in-law told her the news.

The Chicago police then banged on the door, saying, "We just found your husband dead." At that moment our lives changed. Chicago's ruthless streets had stolen my father. Ezekiel Taylor was shot and killed in a robbery, on his way home from church. He died four minutes away from the house where Michelle Obama grew up.
And so my mother, Velma, was left to raise me in a single parent household. Without her husband's income, she struggled to keep me in private school and extra curricular activities -- from ballet, to tap, to flute lessons, to drum lessons. Her sacrifice can never be repaid. She taught me how to be a survivor, and imparted strong values, standards and morals.
She also taught me the lesson of forgiveness. I forgive the two men and woman who killed my father because you can't go forward if you don't.
In high school, my great friend and honorary "big brother" died in the same street violence. Ron Hollister was intelligent, upstanding, funny and a good student . He was gunned down in a robbery on a summer day when he was home from his freshman year at college. He had gone to get his car washed.

Chicago's gun violence: Can Obama help?

Chicago's 500th homicide this year

National politics cloud teen's funeral

Pendletons: Hadiya was bubbly, funny
As a senior in high school, I vowed to get out of Chicago, to escape the pain and tragedy. I worked hard and landed a full four year scholarship to Clark Atlanta University. I never looked back.
But in March of 2010, Chicago reached me in Atlanta with another horrifying phone call. My grade school buddy Steven Lee -- kind, funny and generous -- was leaving his birthday party and was caught in the crossfire of two gangs. Steven was killed by a stray bullet and his killer was never captured. To add to the tragedy for his family, his older brother was a Chicago police officer who was killed in the line of duty in August 2001.
My hometown is a war zone. Too many innocent children and young adults have died. Chicago police reported that 506 people were murdered in the city in 2012, about 16% more than 2011. Compare that with the fact that 310 American troops were killed in Afghanistan in 2012.
Chicagoans can be proud and hopeful that our president is going to the city to bring attention to this epidemic of violence. Too many mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers of murder victims have been suffering for too long.
Leaders like Chicago Police Commissioner Garry McCarthy and Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel need to figure out why murder rates in cities like New York and Los Angeles are plummeting while Chicago's continues to soar.
And parents, religious leaders, teachers and community organizers also need to help take back the streets.
The city needs an action plan to save innocent people from becoming victims like Ronnie, Steven and Hadiya. It needs more community centers to offer a safe haven and alternative to gang banging for kids. Young people need direction and mentors -- people like my mother, who instilled in me the values you need to rise above the challenges of poverty and despair.
I love Chicago because it made me who I am. It has the best pizza, a great skyline, gorgeous Lake Michigan, museums and a diversity of cultures on every corner. Obama called it home. It gave us Oprah, Michael Jordan, Nobel Prize winning author Saul Bellow -- and the great University of Chicago. It gave us Michelle Obama, who was also raised on the South Side.
But it's the city I hate to love, and I won't go back -- especially now that I'm raising a son. I don't want to lose him to the streets of Chicago.
I hope President Obama's visit will inspire the city to save itself, so young people in the future will feel they can live and raise a family in the city they love.

Gloria Allred Begs KOGO 600's LaDona Harvey to Move Out of the Dark Ages



Gloria Allred Begs KOGO 600's LaDona Harvey to Move Out of the Dark Ages

LaDona said  "Well, what do you think?"

LaDona please--Gloria Allred is right--there is no other answer then discrimination against women.

Allred suing the college for gender discrimination--the mother fired--the father hired

To me that only means men can do it and women can't--the conservatives and rush limbaugh--do they wonder why they lost the election?

Talking about the lady that was fired from San Diego Christian College for getting pregnant--It's illegal to have sex, get pregnant--really.  Apparently she signed some sort of contract that she would not get pregnant without being married while working at this business, but that discriminates against women Gloria said and that is illeagal by the constitution of California.  It also discriminates against women because men can have children without losing their job--there is really no evidence, but the woman's condition is obvious and she loses her job.

To further rub salt into the wound the father was employed by the school while the mom was let go.

The real question--La Dona cannot possibly be that obtuse--I think these talk radio people just say anything to make a show.

The other important fact LaDona is missing.  Gloria Allred is quite the amazing lady.  She has fought very hard for the rights of women.  She has taken many cases and won where the lady did not have the finances to fight the case by purchasing the services of an attorney.

LaDona claims she would just not do it....


Okay LaDona, I give you the self-control idea for just a moment--that does sound good on the surface.  I guess LDona is maintaining she has incredible self-control and judgement.  LaDona--have you ever been a teenager?  Maybe you signed the agreement because you desperately needed a job but did not really understand the agreement you signed.  Maybe the employee really did not have full command of the language. 

LaDona, claims she is an atheist, sent to the moon over Ms. Allred, calls Gloria a self-promoter and a "fame-ho"......LaDona says they would fire the man that got the girlfriend pregnant in the same situation--LaDona, how would they know?

LaDona made a joke and said it hurt the girls feelings--in a condescending tone--but wait LaDona, I bet it hurt more than her feelings, I bet it hurt her wallet.

I think LaDona is an embarrassment against women and women's rights--LaDona reads everything carefully in advance, LaDona does not make mistakes.  That's a fabulous idea, but not every girl, lady, employee falls into that category--besides that their school statement is unreasonable--If I heard it correctly that feel homosexuality is immoral, as well.

Really LaDona--I am embarrassed for you--what are the gay kids supposed to do--what are the gay kids at that school suppose to do.  Tell me what you think about that LaDona--kids who fell into their ridiculous contract of immorality through no fault ofr their own--kids who do not have the power or control to do anything about the situation. answer that LaDona. 

Tell me what you think.

Dr. Ardy Sixkiller Clarke--The Interview on Coast to Coast

Dr. Ardy Sixkiller Clarke--The Interview on Coast to Coast

George Knapp Knocks One Out of the Ballpark on Coast 2 Coast

Right, everyone is so excited when George Knapp takes over the microphone on the last 2 Sunday nights of each month, but this last Sunday, Jan 27, 2013 George really did an exceptional job.

George always puts on a good show, but every now and then he runs a dialog that is so insightful--really--I feel lucky to have been a listener.

Well, to start off the show he interviewed Dr. Ardy Sixkiller Clarke, Professor Emeritus at Montana State University--She has dedicated her life to the study of indigenous populations.  Her stories and research of Native Americans was so interesting and respectful--I had to know more about her interview techniques.  That is the word that is beaming in my mind right now--respectful.

Once she starts talking the listener is drawn in--I had to know more:

I contacted her via her website and she very graciously agreed to an on-line interview--I am honored.  This lady, this writer, this researcher has a certain insight and quiet that is unequaled and rare in today's modern society.  There is a quality about her that allows one to see a truth about people and about ourselves that we often miss because we are so busy running through the activities of daily living.  Heaven for bid if we actually took time to think about people who have lived before us, people who occupied our land with respect and valor--shouldn't we take time to observe this--to have respect for lives past. 

Can I take the time to learn something--to increase the capacity of my mind?

Dr Clarke's website is very simple and pleasing to the eye--to me her website is good Feng Shui.   On her website she talks about her writing process.  She is also very helpful to new writers.  She also holds classes for aspiring writers.

Well enough of my ramblings--lets move over to the expert and the interview:

from the website www.sixkiller.com
The author of several children's books and the best-selling, Sisters in the Blood, she lives in Montana with her husband, Kip; her beloved Lhasa Apso, Prairie Rose and her Maine Coon cat, Rez Perez.   While retired from academia, she continues to work as a consultant to American Indian tribes and  indigenous communities worldwide and is currently working on a second volume of work about the indigenous people of Mexico and the Star People.

She also speaks at UFO conferences about the Starpeople, as she did on Coast To Coast, and even holds retreats for aspiring writers.

I asked questions about her writing style and interview philosophy and then some practical questions about the website, etc.



First and foremost I would like to hear what you have to say about interview skills.  It seems like you must be able to create an environment where people are not afraid to speak.

I think the best interviewer is one who LISTENS.  I did not gain access to most of the people I interviewed without their either having observed me over a long period of time and believing I was a person who could be trusted or being introduced by a family member or friend who knew me.  I never really grilled the individuals.  I let them tell me the story and I tried never to interject my personal feelings or show any kind of shock or emotions that might lead them to believe I did not believe their story.

Do you give yourself a writing assignment or do you just follow your passion and write about whatever you feel like--because the media sets me off good or bad and I cannot stop writing about it.  How do you make your writing decisions.

There is a website called Nanowrimo--it stands for National Novel Writing Month.  The month is November.  Every year, writers come together all over the world and try to write a 50,000 word novel in one month.  I did that last November.  It was the most challenging thing I have ever done and to be honest, I like the novel I wrote.  As I have time, I am going back and working on it and developing the characters.   So that is the only time I have ever given myself a “writing assignment” so to speak, unless you would count all of the professional articles I have written for publication over the years.  Other writing decisions come from something I read or hear about and I think I have to write my thoughts about that.  For example, if you go to my website www.sixkiller.com, you will find some essays there.  I wrote one when Ray Bradbury died and his death is what motivated me to write the essay.  

How often do you write?  Do you consider it work or fun.  What part of writing do you like or not like.

I write every day.  I consider it work in that I do it every day.  I can’t think of anything about it that I do not like.  I have been writing all of my life.  

I particularly admire your ability to tell a story that I think must have been very emotional for the people involved.  You did not sell the people out in any way.  You created an environment of respect for the individuals.  Can you talk about your approach.  

My approach is not to rush anything.  I approach interviews as though I have all the time in the world.  Often, for the first hour, we might talk about family, friends we have in common, places we have been, etc.  I also give my word that under no circumstances will I ever reveal their identity and I mean to keep my word.  I think most people know when you are telling the truth.  

Are you interested in having a blog on Salon.com or anything like that and what do you think of those things.  Do you try to submit your things to newspapers or magazines of the traditional type and what do you think about those kind of publications?

I always admire people who have blogs, but I don’t think I would ever do that.  I just do not think I have that many things to say that would attract a following and I have no interest in Twitter or Facebook.   I never submit anything to newspapers.  I have done a few articles for magazines, but until now, most of my articles were written for professional journals.  

How many different subjects do you write about and why?

Well, obviously I write about UFO/Star people encounters.  I wrote, Sisters in the Blood, a best seller in academia about native American Women.  I have written children’s books.  I am currently writing a series of books about three pre-teens, The Three Amigoes, who travel in the world to archeological sites and discover things, get into trouble, solve mysteries, etc.  I have not submitted to anyone so I do not know if there will even be an interested publisher.  I also just completed a children’s book called Starchaser’s First Christmas.  I have no publisher for it either.  

Are you trying to write to make a living or are you trying to share certain information with the public or are you writing about what inspires you the most?

If I were writing for a living I would probably starve.  Unless you write a best seller, there is not much chance you can support yourself.  I write about what inspires me.

But how do you keep from being angry yet still keep writing?

I focus on the positive.

About the practicality of your website--did you design it yourself--are you happy with the way it functions?  

Yes, I am very happy with the website.  No, I hired a website designer.  He brought me several designs.  I chose this one for simplicity.  I hate complicated websites when I am surfing.  

How do you suggest to new writers to be successful with exposure.  

Never turn down an opportunity to respond to  people who want to interview you--even if it is a small blog or radio show with a small audience--be willing to give of your time.  Do book signings at your local bookstores.  Anything that can bring positive attention to yourself.  For example, I am going to speak at a UFO Conference in July that only has about 80 participants annually.   Many people who write would not bother with such a small conference, but for me I want to reach out to as many people as possible and I will find the time to do that.  

I have in my mind--to me this places the book straight in the hands of the reader and I am saying good job for that.  

Is this what you were trying to accomplish?  

Absolutely.  I also publicize my e-mail.  I answer every e-mail as you well know.

Thank you.








Well, as everyone can see I had a very lovely and informative interview with Dr. Arde Sixkiller Clarke.  Her information for writers is very useful and helpful, too.  She is not only beautiful on the outside but gracious and generous, as well.

I don't mind saying that because recently I asked someone to give me some tips for a publication I am hoping to write for as they said they were interested in my subject matter.  This person writes for them often and as I knew someone who was having lunch with this individual--someone whose job is to talk about careers--I asked if she could call or e-mail me--well, enough of that...you know the answer....

This is Dr. Clarke's current work.....I copied this info from the website:
Encounters with the Star People: Untold Stories of American Indians  offers up a collection of intimate narratives of encounters between contemporary American Indians, UFOs and Extraterrestrials. The first person accounts, described as conscious experiences and recalled without the aid of hypnosis, reveal a worldview that unquestionably accepts the reality of Aliens or Star People.  The stories also reveal cultures that almost universally regard Star People as ancestors, which allows for interactions that take place without fear and helps explain the uniqueness of the encounters and experiences.  The stories range from an account of a UFO crash landing on a reservation where a team of alien scientists waited for a rescue, the unveiling of a petrified alien heart to an elder who had earned the title of "the man who shot an alien" among his family and friends.  Others told stories of aliens who assumed human identity, and were quietly inhabiting Earth to a race of aliens who lived underground.
The stories were told by people from all walks of life. Some had graduate degrees; others had never attended school. Some were adept at technology; others had never used a cell phone, owned a computer or a television set. A few of the stories were about events that occurred before the 1947 Roswell incident, however, the majority of the events took place between 1990 and 2010. This book contributes to the knowledge about UFOs from a group that until now have mostly remained silent. For readers, it is likely they will never look at the UFO/Alien phenomenon in the same way again.


I wanted to mention the UFO Watchtower Conference, July 27 and 28 – Hooper, Colorado in the famous mysterious valley.  Sixty-seven UFO sightings in November.                                                                   here is a link to her website:

http://www.sixkiller.com/

here is a link to Coast to Coast--go to shows and then recent shows to read more about Dr. Clarke's interview on C2C: 

http://www.coasttocoastam.com/

Thank you to Dr. Clarke--I really enjoyed our chat--I feel lucky to know you and I would love to attend a conference where you are speaking.
