States, cities and counties are petitioning to form their own networks
The Federal Communications Commission has another challenge to its plan to create a nationwide broadband network for public safety needs — four state governments and more than a dozen cities and counties are applying to set up local and regional public safety networks immediately in the same bandwidth in the FCC's plan.
The FCC's Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau is considering 13 petitions for waivers for authority to deploy public safety broadband systems on a local or regional basis. Those systems would operate in the same 700 MHz bandwidth currently licensed to a trustee for the purpose of the FCC's proposed nationwide broadband public safety network, the commission said in a news release on Aug. 14.
The District of Columbia, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York and North Dakota, along with Boston; New York City; San Antonio, Texas; San Francisco; San Jose and several other cities, have petitioned the FCC to create their own broadband networks for first responders.
The petitioners claim to have sufficient funding available to deploy their own such networks, either on their own or with partners. The state and city officials seeking waivers say they can deploy those networks in advance of the FCC's completion of the proposed nationwide network.
The petitioners also assert "that these deployments can be accomplished in a manner that may be integrated into any such network resulting from the Commission's rule-making," the FCC news release said.
The FCC has been working on plans for the nationwide broadband network for emergency officials for several years. The plan originated in Congress, which ordered the radio spectrum to be made available for public use as broadcasters converted to digital television.
In 2007, the commission designated the Public Safety Spectrum Trust as the license holder for 10 MHz of bandwidth in the 700 MHz band. In 2008, the FCC attempted to find a buyer who would agree to share control of the spectrum with the trust and would make the spectrum available to public safety crews in emergencies. However, there were no successful bidders. Since then, the FCC has been preparing for additional rule-making for the public safety network. The FCC also is preparing a general National Broadband Plan under the economic stimulus law.
The public safety spectrum trust is conditionally supporting several of the 13 petitions for waivers, provided that sufficient safeguards are in place to ensure integration of any such networks into the FCC's nationwide, interoperable public safety broadband network, the FCC said. The trust is recommending that it and the FCC provide specific guidance on technology standards and system requirements to fulfill those conditions.
The FCC is inviting comments until Oct. 16.

Diet and Prostate Cancer: Helping Your Patients Beat the Odds
By James P. Meschino, DC, MS
Recent Trends and Research Findings
Prostate cancer incidence increased steadily from 1981 to 1989, with a steep increase in the early 1990s, followed by a decline.Incidence rates were forecasted to remain stable through the year 2001. However, the exaggerated rate of increase in the early 1990s was transient, likely a result of increased early detection of preclinical prostate cancer from the widespread implementation of the new PSA (prostate-specific antigen) blood-screening test. Nevertheless, prostate cancer remains the most common form of cancer in North American men, as well as in other Western countries, and is the second leading cause of cancer death in males.1
As reported in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, as many as 75 percent of prostate cancer cases may be prevented if men follow more prudent nutritional practices, many of which will be outlined in this review.2 In Japan, the incidence of prostate cancer is 80 percent lower than in North America and much of the Western world. Low rates are also found in Africa and Eastern Europe. Migration studies reveal that when men relocate from low to high-risk regions of the world and abandon their traditional dietary patterns, their incidence of prostate cancer rises to approach that of North American men.3,4
In recent years, a number of nutritional factors and bioactive compounds have been identified that are strongly linked to the development of prostate cancer. In the past year, published data from the Harvard alumni study revealed that men with moderate liquor consumption (three drinks per week to three drinks per day) show a 61-67 percent increased risk of developing prostate cancer, compared to men who never or infrequently consume alcohol. Wine and beer did not appear to be as hazardous as liquor. However, men initiating alcohol consumption of any kind between 1977 to 1988 had double the risk of prostate cancer compared to men with almost no alcohol consumption at both evaluation dates (after controlling for other confounding variables). This study followed 7,612 Harvard alumni (mean age was 66.6 years) from 1988 -1993.5
Also in 2001, the study by K.T. Bogen and G.A. Keating provided evidence that higher intakes of heterocyclic amines among African-Americans, especially from pan-fried meats, may partially explain the twofold increase in prostate cancer in this group, as it was shown to consume approximately two and three times more heterocyclic amines at ages less than 16 and over 30, respectively. Heterocyclic amines are potent mutagens that increase the rates of colon, mammary, prostate and other cancers in bioassay rodents.6
In the journal Oncogene (2001), S.R. Chinni, et al. provided strong evidence to show that the indole ring structures present in cruciferous vegetables may play an important role in the prevention of prostate cancer. This study demonstrated that indole rings (indole-3-carbinols) can inhibit the growth of PC-3-type human prostate cancer cells by arresting their cell division cycle, and promote their demise through apoptosis (programmed cell death). The authors concluded that indole-3-carbinols may be an effective chemopreventive or therapeutic agent against prostate cancer. Previously, similar findings have argued for the ingestion of indole-3-carbinols as a means to prevent breast cancer in women.7
A link between vascular disease and increased risk of prostate cancer has been reported recently, suggesting that heightened central sympathetic stimulation, which can lead to elevated blood pressure and heart rate, may overstimulate the androgen activity of prostate cells. Increased an-drogen activity is strongly linked to prostate cancer. Thus, heart rate and blood pressure may represent indirect markers of sympathetic stimulation of androgen activity on the prostate. In support of this model, recent data from a cardiovascular health study (2,442 men) demonstrated that men with a resting heart rate equal to or greater than 80 beats per minute had a 60-percent greater chance of developing prostate cancer during the 5.6-year follow-up period, compared to men with a resting heart rate of less than 60 beats per minute, an indirect indicator of cardiovascular fitness and lower sympathetic tone.8
In addition to these recent publications, a vast amount of prior evidence indicates that risk of prostate cancer is largely determined by nutritional and other lifestyle factors, and age-related changes that occur in the prostate gland. Incredibly, even undesirable age-related changes to the prostate may be preventable and reversible through nutrition and supplementation practices, including changes that lead to prostate enlargement (benign prostatic hyperplasia), which affects 50-60 percent of men by ages 40-59, and 80 percent of men by age 80. Thus, nutritional support for the prostate gland is considered to be an important anti-aging intervention to preserve the health and function of this gland, and important in the prevention and treatment of prostate disease.9,10 This review brings to light the evidence-based research that should prompt all health practitioners to counsel their male patients on the importance of nutrition in lifelong prostate health.
Age-Related Changes to the Prostate
As men age (by age 40), the prostate gland tends to accelerate the rate at which it converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). The build-up of DHT in prostate cells stimulates them to divide and multiply at a faster rate. This results in more prostate cells (more prostate mass) and the potential for prostate enlargement and other problems. As the prostate enlarges under the influence of DHT, men often notice symptoms such as reduced strength of their urine stream, more frequent urination, repeated nighttime urination, bladder urgency and related symptoms.10 More rapid cell division rates also increase the chances of forming cancerous DNA mutations. DHT is known to promote the spread of existing prostate cancer, and males born with the genetic inability to synthesize DHT are virtually immune from developing prostate cancer in their lifetimes. There is no question that DHT is linked to prostate cancer and prostate enlargement in a number of ways.11,12 Encouraging is that specific nutrients and natural bioactive compounds in foods and certain supplements have been shown to block the conversion of testosterone to DHT, and exert other protective effects within the prostate gland. As such, the consumption of these products at the correct dosage and/or standardized grade have been shown to be effective in the treatment of enlarged prostate problems, and some of these natural agents are associated with the prevention and (more recently) treatment of prostate cancer.13
Nutrients that Block the Build-up of DHT
There are several known natural agents that can effectively block the build-up of DHT within the prostate gland. The primary agents include the standardized grade of saw palmetto, pygeum africanum, beta-sitosterol, soy isoflavones and stinging nettle (urtica dioica).
Numerous studies have shown that the fatty acids and sterols present in saw palmetto block the build-up of DHT, and exert other favourable effects on prostate health. Saw palmetto extract is a proven therapy for enlarged prostate problems, and has recently been used in trials with prostate cancer patients, yielding impressive results in helping to contain the disease and lower PSA levels by more than 75 percent in many cases. For the prevention and treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), the usual dose is 160 mg (twice daily) of saw palmetto extract (standardized grade containing 90 percent fatty acids and sterols) or 320 mg (twice daily) of a standardized grade containing 45 percent fatty acids and sterols.
Pygeum africanum contains active compounds known as triterpenes, which have also been shown to be effective in the treatment of enlarged prostate problems in numerous human studies. The usual dose of pygeum for the prevention and treatment of BPH is 100-200 mg per day (standardized grade containing12-14 percent triterpenes).
In recent years, prestigious medical journals such as The Lancet and the British Journal of Urology have published research papers demonstrating that beta-sitosterol (found in saw palmetto, soy products and other plant foods) at 20 mg three times per day, or 65 mg twice per day, is also extremely effective in reversing BPH.
Contained within soy products, including soy extract, are several important isoflavones, the most important being genistein and diadzein. These isoflavones directly inhibit the build-up of DHT and exhibit many other biological properties related to the prevention of prostate disease and prostate enlargement as men age. Soy isoflavones have been shown to induce apoptosis of human prostate cancer cell lines; decrease androgen stimulation to the prostate gland; slow the cell division rate of prostate cells and prostate cancer cells; and reduce the conversion of androstenedione to estrone hormone in adipose tissue by acting as an aromatase enzyme inhibitor. All of these physiological effects are known to reduce prostate cancer development and/or arrest prostate cancer growth. In Japan, where soy isoflavone intake is high (avg. 50 mg per day), prostate cancer incidence is 80 percent lower than in North America.
The herb stinging nettle also enjoys a reputation as a natural agent that has consistently been shown to reverse prostate enlargement in European studies. Prostate combination formulas often include 20-60 mg of stinging nettle as part of the complex.14-34
Prostate Antioxidants
Studies indicate that prostate cancer may also arise from free radical damage to prostate cells, converting them into mutated cancer cells. Evidence is very strong to suggest that the antioxidant lycopene (derived from tomatoes) plays an essential role in protecting prostate cells from free radical damage. Lycopene is known to concentrate in the prostate gland and its fluids at levels much higher than are found in serum. As such, it has been shown to be a tissue-specific antioxidant in prostate health. Human studies, such as the Physicians' Health study and the Health Professionals' Follow-Up study have shown a striking correlation between higher lycopene blood and intake levels (six mg per day), and a marked reduction in prostate cancer development (as much as a 40-percent reduction). Experimental evidence also supports this protective effect of lycopene on prostate health.
Soy isoflavones (mentioned earlier in this review) are also known to provide antioxidant protection to the prostate gland. Soy intake is highly correlated with reduced prostate cancer development in epidemiological and experimental studies.
There has also been the suggestion from human intervention trials (placebo-controlled) that vitamin E (60 IU per day) and selenium (200 mcg per day) supplementation provide antioxidant support to the prostate, resulting in a 30 to 60 percent reduction in the risk of prostate cancer.4,11,35-41
Protecting the Prostate
To help combat the age-related changes to the prostate gland that lead to problems of enlargement, and the multistep processes involved in prostate cancer development, all men should practice prudent nutritional practices. Due to the changes that occur at around age 40, men this age and older should consider taking a supplement that contains the correct dosage and standardized grade of saw palmetto; pygeum africanum; beta-sitosterol; soy isoflavones; stinging nettle; lycopene; and other prostate- related nutrients, as a form of chemoprevention and general prostate gland support. The scientific evidence suggests that the following nutrition and lifestyle factors can favourably affect prostate health, and should be strongly considered by all men:

Rhesus monkeys have a form of self awareness not previously attributed to them
In the first study of its kind in an animal species that has not passed a critical test of self-recognition, cognitive psychologist Justin J. Couchman of the University at Buffalo has demonstrated that rhesus monkeys have a sense of self-agency -- the ability to understand that they are the cause of certain actions -- and possess a form of self awareness previously not attributed to them. The study, which will be published July 6 in Biology Letters, a journal of the Royal Society, may illuminate apparent self-awareness deficits in humans with autism, schizophrenia, Alzheimer's disease and developmental disabilities.
Rhesus monkeys are one of the best-known species of Old World monkeys, and have been used extensively in medical and biological research aimed at creating vaccines for rabies, smallpox and polio and drugs to manage HIV/AIDS; analyzing stem cells and sequencing the genome. Humans have sent them into space, cloned them and planted jellyfish genes in them.
Couchman, a PhD candidate at UB, is an instructor at UB and at the State University of New York College at Fredonia. He points out that previous research has shown that rhesus monkeys, like apes and dolphins, have metacognition, or the ability to monitor their own mental states. Nevertheless, the monkeys consistently fail the mirror self-recognition test, which assesses whether animals can recognize themselves in a mirror, and this is an important measure self-awareness.
"We know that in humans, the sense of self-agency is closely related to self-awareness," Couchman says, "and that it results from monitoring the relationship between pieces of intentional, sensorimotor and perceptual information.
"Based on previous findings in comparative metacognition research, we thought that even though they fail the mirror test, rhesus monkeys might have some other form of self-awareness. In this study we looked at whether the monkeys have a sense of self agency, that is, the understanding that some actions are the consequence of their own intentions."
For the study, Couchman trained 40 UB undergraduates and four male rhesus monkeys, housed in the Language Research Center of Georgia State University, to move a computer cursor with a joystick while a distractor cursor partially matched their movements. After moving the cursor, both humans and monkeys were asked to identify the computer cursor that they controlled -- the one that matched their movements and intentions. Both species were able to select the cursor they controlled from an array of choices, including the distractor cursor, at greater than chance levels.
"This suggests that the monkeys, like humans, have some understanding of self agency," says Couchman. "This awareness or implicit sense that it is 'me' who is presently executing a bodily movement or thinking thoughts is an important form of self-awareness."
Couchman says that because this is the first such demonstration of self-agency in a species that has not passed the mirror self-recognition test, the results may shed light on apparent self-awareness deficits in humans.
"Mirror self-recognition is developmentally delayed in autistic children and absent in many who are mentally retarded, have Alzheimer's disease or are schizophrenic. It is not clear why this deficit occurs, but like rhesus monkeys," he says, "these groups may simply have biases against mirrors.
"If, when studied, such individuals attempted to distinguish self-generated actions from partially altered actions in the paradigm reported in this study," Couchman say, "it might offer information as to whether the breakdown in their mirror self-recognition is due to a difficulty in processing certain kinds of perceptual or cognitive information."
Decades of psychological research has established that the concept of agency implies an active organism, one who desires, makes plans and carries out actions. The sense of agency and its scientific study is significant in the study of social cognition, moral reasoning and psychopathology because of its implications for intention, consciousness, responsibility, desire and development.
"Self agency also plays a pivotal role in cognitive development," Couchman says.
"It is linked to metacognition, the first stages of self-awareness and theory of mind (understanding the mental states of others). These abilities give humans the sense that they are entities separate from the external world, and allow them to interact with other agents and the environment in intelligent ways. If rhesus monkeys are able to recognize themselves as agents that cause certain actions," he says, "then they probably have a similar understanding that they are entities independent from the environment."

Arvind Kejriwal has lost his way: Ramdev
Jammu: Hitting out at Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for calling leaders corrupt "without any proof", yoga guru Ramdev on Saturday said the Aam Aadmi Party leader who had set out to cleanse the system has "lost his way".
"We should give proof while levelling allegations. It is the biggest dishonesty to label people as dishonest and defend your own corrupt people like Somnath Bharti, who has created uproar in the country with his acts," he told reporters here.
Describing Kejriwal as his "former associate", Ramdev said they had backed him on the issue of war against corruption "but he is deflecting from his mission. There is difference between his words and deeds now. I feel sorry for him.... He has got derailed from the path. It pains us."
"AAP has lost its sense and also Kejriwal, who labelled (BJP leader Nitin) Gadkari as corrupt in order to prove himself as honest person. He is trying to portray himself as honest and all other leaders as dishonest. That is bad".
He said people, who have come up as an alternative to the traditional politics in the country, should go for clean politics and issue statements with seriousness.
"His (Kejriwal`s) workers do not desist from terming Narendra Modi as corrupt. By doing this, he will further lose his respect and dignity," Ramdev, who has openly backed the BJP primeministerial candidate, said.
He also questioned the CM`s allegations against Union Minister Farooq Abdullah.
"Farooq Abdullah is a very serious person. Whatever Kejriwal is doing is a cheap act," he added.

New Jersey and Pennsylvania should bank on solar – new report06. November 2012 | Industry & Suppliers, Markets & Trends, Research & Development | By: Max Hall
A report commissioned by trade associations representing more than 100 solar companies in New Jersey and Pennsylvania has, perhaps not surprisingly, extolled the benefits of photovoltaics over conventional electricity generation.
The Mid-Atlantic Solar Energy Industries Association (MSEIA) and its Pennsylvania counterpart, the PSEIA, commissioned consultants Clean Power Research to quantify the value of solar-generated electricity by identifying the cost savings against power generated by a gas turbine plant and various long-term benefits.
The study includes an examination of figures, such as the environmental and economic development values of using solar over conventionally-generated power. It concludes that the value of solar electricity – at a penetration rate of 15% from four different types of solar array at seven locations – varies from US$256 to $318/MWh.
The trade associations point out that even if the price of solar renewable energy certificates (SRECs) – which power providers are obliged to purchase to fulfill their renewable energy obligations – rise, the true value of solar electricity to society and consumers will still represent a significant premium on the market value.
With SRECS costing $60/MWh in New Jersey and $20/MWh in Pennsylvania, MSEIA president Dennis Wilson said, "This indicates that electric ratepayers in the region are getting more than a two-to-one return on their investment in solar energy.
"Although the current SREC prices are unsustainably low, our analysis indicates that SRECs can increase in price, deliver net benefits and still support strong solar growth. Solar power has proven it can deliver value that exceeds its cost by 50% to over 100%. This net positive benefit will only increase as solar technology continues to drop in cost."
Clean Power Research stresses in the report that it tends towards conservative estimates of the "softer" benefits of solar, for instance using only the predicted enhanced tax revenues from employment in solar – against gas turbine – electricity generation, as the basis for its Economic Development Value of solar.
The study also factors in an estimate of the cost of adapting the grid in New Jersey and Pennsylvania to cope with the different strains put upon it by a solar penetration of 15%, using a figure of $10-$20/MWh.

Gay Parents Can Seek Parental Rights For Kids Raised Out Of Wedlock, New York Court Says

Robert Gant Hopes For 'Queer As Folk' Revival
The United Church of Christ (UCC) and a
dozen clergy members on Monday filed a federal lawsuit challenging
North Carolina's ban on gay marriage.
The plaintiffs, which also include
several gay and lesbian couples who wish to marry, argue that the
state's constitutional amendment limiting marriage to heterosexual
couples violates the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. It is
the first of the nearly 6 dozen marriage equality cases filed
nationwide to bring First Amendment religious freedom claims.
"The North Carolina Marriage Laws,
which make it a criminal offense for any 'minister, officer, or any
other person' to solemnize the marriage of a same-sex couple,
impermissibly intrude on Plaintiffs' First Amendment rights by
imposing significant burdens on their rights of expression
association," the complaint reads.
The UCC, which has more than 1 million
members, is one of a handful of denominations that bless the
marriages of gay couples.
"As senior minister, I am often asked
to perform marriage ceremonies for same-sex couples in my
congregation," Rev. Joe Hoffman, senior minister of First
Congregation United Church of Christ in Asheville and a plaintiff in
the case, said
in a statement. "My denomination – the United Church of
Christ – authorizes me to perform these ceremonies. But Amendment
One denies my religious freedom by prohibiting me from exercising
this right."
Jake Sussman, a lawyer representing the
plaintiffs, added: "In addition to bringing 14th
Amendment claims under equal protection and due process, this lawsuit
introduces a 1st Amendment claim that the marriage ban in
North Carolina violates the right to the free exercise of religious
beliefs by denominations, clergy, and congregants who believe that
same-sex marriages are theologically valid and want to perform
marriage ceremonies."

Gov. Mary Fallin's attempt to make a group of impoverished refugee children fodder for her reelection will surely test the limits of the Oklahoma electorate's cravenness and ignorance.
Fallin has been greeted with bad news recently when it comes to her reelection bid. First, SoonerPoll found that her approval rating has plummeted by approximately 20 points over the last year. Second, a Rasmussen poll shows she and Democratic gubernatorial candidate Joe Dorman are locked in a tight election with Fallin leading Dorman by a slim 45 percent to 40 percent edge. Until now, political pundits have considered Fallin, a state Republican who has never lost an election, virtually invincible in her reelection bid.
Fallin's response to this bad news has appeared to be to distance herself from the draconian, high-stakes testing policies of outgoing and controversial state schools Superintendent Janet Barresi and to arouse conservative anger over the housing of some 1,100 Central American children at Fort Sill near Lawton. The children are part of an exodus of younger people trying to escape the violence of their countries, which include Honduras and Nicaragua.
The Fallin campaign has actually launched a petition drive to close the Oklahoma facility housing the children. The petition language appeal is couched in typical flaming rhetoric, such as "illegal alien minors," and it, of course, blames President Barack Obama for the situation when, if fact, a policy initiated by former President George Bush has exasperated the problem of deporting the children. This is also a political refugee issue, not an immigration issue, created by years of immoral Central American policy based on U.S. pseudo-colonization interests. Both Republicans and Democrats have shaped this policy, which is based on exploitation and greed.
So, in effect, Fallin is asking her supporters and potential supports to do two things: (1) Condemn a group of children who are merely trying to escape certain death, and (2) completely ignore the actual bipartisan facts of why the children are here and why they can't just be immediately deported back to their countries.
Fallin is appealing to the cravenness of Oklahomans to simply not care about the welfare of children in general and the ignorance of people to just randomly condemn Obama for what can be construed as much as a Republican problem as it is a Democratic problem.
Will it work? These Republican "group hate" appeals have certainly worked here in the past when it has come to immigration issues. The state's cheerleaders like to make a big deal out of how nice everyone is here, but the reality is the state is filled with people who are terribly prejudiced and have mistrust of "the other," which, in this case, is a group of poor children with brown skin.
Still, surely a majority of the state has grown past these racist ideas, especially in the last ten years or so. One wants to think this, of course, but racism is not quantifiable here. Fallin's campaign tact, as racist as it can publicly get, is probably as good as any indicator where the state currently stands when it comes to tolerance. If she starts to move up in the polls, look for more group hate appeals. It's clear, given this recent political move over the young refugees, Fallin plans to make her campaign as little about state issues as possible.

Big Brother 10 Week 9 PoV Comp Spoilers| September 6, 2008 at 10:42 AM EDT
The Power of Veto competition took place overnight, again, in the Big Brother 10 house. Dan had nominated Memphis and Jerry, but with this week being all about the Power of Veto this is the only even that will really matter.
Winner of Week 9 PoV is: Memphis
Sounds like Dan threw the comp to Memphis, but the Mixologist himself doesn't know that. Smart move on Dan's part though because that makes Memphis the one vote this week. Dan is hoping that'll divert final emotional attacks from him if he makes it to the F2 w/ Memphis.
The real danger now is for Keesha. Memphis & Dan are discussing sending her packing and keeping Jerry around! Wow. Smart move? Too soon to tell.
The PoV ceremony will take place live on Tuesday's episode along with an eviction. In the meantime watch the Renegades live and uncensored ($5 off & Free Trial).

So not a smart move to get rid of Keesha, especially for Dan.
The only way he [or she] has a chance of winning is to make it to final two together. Memphis will win without a doubt unless he takes Jerry.
Keesha and Dan will be a contest of who is hated less.
According to my predictions, Memphis will use the Power Of Veto to remove himself from the block during Tuesday night's Live Veto Meeting, forcing Dan to put his ally Keesha on the block. Keesha will very well be the next contestant to be evicted from the Big Brother 10 House this coming Tuesday night, leaving only three guys remaining, which are Dan, Jerry and Memphis taking part in the final 3-part Head-Of-Household Competition on 9/9/08.

Mark my words. If "The Renegades" are dumb enough to ditch Keesha and keep Jerry in the game on Tuesday, that creepy SOB is gonna end up winning the whole shebang right out from under them…
I like Keesha so it would be lousy to see her carry Memphis all this way just to be screwed in the end.
Perhaps she will win and perhaps she will not -but she has been promised a spot in the F3 and that's where she should be.
It may be "just a game" and I know there is $500K on the line, but I cannot recall it ever being acceptable to cheat and lie while playing any game excusing the player(s) from fair play and decency….
It is assumed that the Final 3 players – play for themselves and all alliances dissolve.
Until that time – Dan and Memphis, out of the spirit of fair play, honesty and basic common courtesy owe her the same consideration and loyalty she has shown them these last three weeks.
So – even though I hope for Dan to win – I expect him to keep his word to both Memphis and Keesha – and win on his own merit and not at the expense of Keesha simply because he believes her to be stronger than Jerry
ditto to brain's comments!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Send Jerry home. Tired of him picking his boogers and flip them. He is very dirty
I really would hate for them to get rid of Keesha, she deserves to be in the final 3. I want Dan or Memphis to win, but I want her to be there with them. And if Keesha goes home, it won't be Dan's doing, it will be Memphis'. Dan has to put Keesha up since Memphis won POV, and Memphis is the only vote. So even though they are in it together, it's ultimately up to Memphis to decide who he thinks is better to keep. I sure hope he gets rid of that idiot Jerry.
Once again, Memphis would be stupid to get rid of Keesha. He can win against Dan and Keesha [who I still maintain should take EACH OTHER for a decent shot at the big prize] but I think Jerry's got a good shot if he makes it to final 3.
I want Memphis, Dan, or Keesha to win, but I'd prefer Jerry gets nowhere nearer to that money than he already is.
The only smart move is to get rid of Keesha.. . .some, many, most of you don't like it and are trying to rationize why she should be kept, but if she goes, the Renegades have a 90% chance of being in the final 3. . if Keesha is kept in the final 3, she has a 30 or 40% chance of winning HOH comps and being in the final. . . .She is too great a threat to keep.. . . .Jerry is just a angry old man who poses NO real threat. . .could he win? of course, which is why I have given the Renegades a 90% (and not 100%) if he is in the final 3.
Sorry, Keesha fans, she should and IMO WILL be sent packing on Tuesday . . .
ditto "brain damage" you hit the nail on the head, LOL.
Henry –
It is true Dan amd Memphis MAY go to the end if they take Jerry to F3 – but – they would have never made it this far without Keesha.
At some point they will have to man-up and do the right thing. It is a game – and part of a game is playing fair. They have been in a solid alliance with her for a month and cutting her loose now is cowardly. If they evict Keesha, and Jerry wins – as he very may well be able to do – I will laugh my ass off at their stupidity.
Katrina Gustav, well said you took the thoughts right from my mouth.. And if M & D do dump Keesha out from the F3, then maybe the old man should win the big money, Dan 2nd and M out, it seems M is the one talking to get Keesha out more so then D, or am I wrong on that.
Katrina, who cares? Are you telling me that suddenly D and M are going to get all reflective and award K her ticket to the final 3 because she helped them along the way? Come on. . . .that's silly on its face. This is not a team game. . . .it is all about the individual, and at the end of the day, D is keeping M because he thinks he can beat him in the final two, and M is keeping D because he thinks he can beat him in the final two. . . . . . and for that same reason, K is a goner. . .. .Mostly, I think because D & M don't think they can beat her in the final vote, but also because I don't think either of them believe Jerrky can beat them in the final HOH comps.. . . K could . . not probable, but could. . .Jerrky simply can't.
Keesha is going home. .. . if it was Dan with the vote, I could see him keeping her, but Memphis is cold hearted (not being mean, just observant) and driven and he will take out Keesha because he sees her as a real threat to his chances at 500k. . .. no matter what she has done for him in this game. . .
One thing is for certain though, if they take Jerry to F3, the house will be boring as hell. It is now with the four of them there. They don't like Jerry, don't want to talk to him, so why keep him. At least with Keesha in the house, they could have some fun. If Jerry makes is to the F3, I can see Dan winning the 1st part of the HOH, which is endurance; Jerry could probably beat Memphis in the 2nd part 'cause Memphis doesn't keep up with what happened when. That leaves Dan and Jerry in part 3. Jerry said he knew all the answers to the last HOH comp, so he could pull it off again. Then, of course he would take Memphis with him to the F2 or would he?
What is there really to reflect upon Henry?
The boys needed Keesha's help to oust all the HG's that were in their way. Both Memphis and Dan would have been long gone without her and would be in that raggedy jury house right now had she not stepped up!
They made a final 3 deal and she lived up to her end of the bargain – even though Renny begged her to get rid of one of them long ago! Now it is time for Dan and Memphis to honor the arrangement they made with her in good faith.
Award her a ticket? Are you kidding? How is it an award when one person honors the agreement and the other two back pedal because they feel insecure about their position in the game! lol
I still would like to see Dan and Memphis make it to F2 – and I perfectly well understand a game is a game. But when 2 men conspire against a woman after she makes good on a promise – I find it cowardly – and indicative of weak moral character.
You see it differently?
Katrina. . maybe you don't get the GAMES core concept. . . ie "using others to help you advance in the game and then EVICT them when they are no longer useful or they pose a danger to you getting 500k") Keesha is no longer any help to the Renegades and has to (IMO, "is" going) go.
The only case to keep Keesha is by someone (Katrina) who wants her to win.
At this point there is no advantage to keeping her. . . none. . . nada . . . zero . . .
Rationalize all you want, but Keesha is going to the jury house, and is is because that is in the best interest of Memphis. . . . and to a lesser degree, Dan.
You call it cowardly, and that is not only a gross mischaracterization, but silly, but it is the smartest game play, and that is the only thing that matters. If you want to see fair treatment, this is NOT the game to see it. . .
I see it correctly, you see it as you want it to be.
Edie, what makes you think the house will be "boring" with D/M/J in the F3? ANY and all of the moral constraints that are keeping this old man at bay because of Keesha being in the house will be totally lifted.. . . It think Jerrry may just totally melt down and have a breakdown. . . .Do I want this? YES!!!!!!!!!! absolutely, he deserves to not only amuse us, but also to have his anti social behavior immortalized on National TV. …even futher than it already has been.
I hope this guy goes home to angry crowds and a wife who hands him divorce papers.
I agree, Katrina Gustav doesn't understand the game.
I agree that a game is a game, and you do what you have to to get to the final 2. I think Dan and Memphis pretty much have that locked, so I think there is no reason to get rid of Keesha. I think they should honor their agreement, if anything to secure her vote, because if by some incredible miracle that Jerry gets to the final 2, he already has enough votes, but he will get Keesha's too. I think they won't lose anything by keeping Keesha, she hasn't really won many competitions and I think both her and Jerry have equal amount of chance to win HOH. I think Dan and Memphis should be confident enough in their ability to keep the power, and then take each other to the end and see what happens. They should just get rid of Jerry, because he is just a total ass, and keep the one who has been by their side all along, just to keep peace and not make the other HG's hate them even more!!
If they ditch K then I pray Jerry takes the whole 500,000 and leaves whoever with the 50,000…. and I hope the whoever is not memphis after all the help K has given his way… Dan doesn't deserve the whole enchilada anyhow IMO, and so more power to J if they play Keesha!!
I think it would be ironic if they keep Jerry -then loose the big prize to him!
Payback would be such a bitch!
I think if Jerry wins – they suffer humiliation along with the half million loss
Men can be such poor thinkers!
Once Keesha is in the jury house with Renny and the others – there is no way a Renegade wins the big prize if Jerry is part of the F2.
"Men can be such poor thinkers". . .I will agree if they keep Keesha. . . if they don't your sexist hypothesis will have been proven wrong and you will have been exposed as sexist debris.
I don't care if both Dan and Memphis laugh and Keesha when they kick hurt ugly wide ass out the door, she, Renny, Libra and (either Dan or Memphis) would NEVER vote for Jerrry. . ..
Let me remind you of a golden classic from Jerrrky's greatest hits. . .
"her pussy don't control me (talking about Keesha), I'd rather jack off than put it in her. . . "
My mantra in life is, "people who brag about buying Korean girls for a month never win 500k". . .I think it is a universal given.
LISA, have you watched the same game? Why would you think that Keesha is no threat? She won the biggest comp in this game the night of the double eviction. . . in a comp that will similar to the final two HoH comps. Keesha is a real threat if she is allowed to stay in this game.. . as opposed to Jerrky, who is not. Keesha is in her final 48 hours in the BB house.
Yikes Pedro!
60 days of game play and those are the quotes you take from Jerry to make your point…
His nose picking, disgusting personal hygeine, backstabbing various HG's, and leeching onto others collectively is far more unappealing than one of his many rididulous statements.
What did you call them?
oh yeah….Golden classics – lol
Perhaps you should have THOUGHT about what your point actually is/was before spewing nonsense in a blob.
I apologize you feel my opinion is sexist???
It's just that you remind me so much of Jerry –
He wouldn't be a relative ot yours would he?
Katrina, you drivel is not sexist because I say it is it is sexist because your words confirm it is.
I don't have time to list all of Jerrrky's transgressions, just as I don't have the time to list all of the points in your posts that have humiliated and exposed you as a sexist and piece of societal garbage. But, feel free to add to my point about Jerrrky, and feel free to continual with your nonsensical posts and narcissistic belittling. Its sort of funny, but then its sad that such an insufferable know it all like yourself finds it necessary to embarrass yourself on a public message board.
Your name calling is projection and the mirror is where you can find the Jerrky clone. Too bad, so sad… ..adios
Peace out
Yes Al Bundy, I AM watching the same game. And how many HOH or POV comps has Jerry won? I think if we look back, he's actually won more than Keesha. So if we look at quality over quantity, I think that may be a mistake. I think that both Jerry and Keesha have the same chance, neither one has done any good at physical or endurance, so basically they would have their chance at mental competitions. Where has Keesha proved more a threat than Jerry? To me, Dan and Memphis both have WAY more chance than either of them, so to me, their best way to have less people against them is to stick with their deal with Keesha. It's not like they are taking her to the end, just to the final 3, which is all she should expect. If either Dan or Memphis won, you would think they would take each other. If Keesha won, then more power to her, she would deserve it. The fact is, I would WAY rather Keesha sneak in and take it all over Dan or Memphis than Jerry. I HATE Jerry, he's a piece of crap, and I wouldn't want there to be even a 1% chance for him to take the half mil. I want it to be Dan or Memphis, but if not, then Keesha. I watch every season, and I think it's about time someone who played the game right and isn't a total ass wins. Dan played the best game, and I hope he takes it.
I believe Memphis will honor his promise to Keesha. Not only because it's the right thing to do but because no one left can stand Jerry. I believe M. may even take K. to the final 2 except he has a better chance against Dan for the 500 grand. Dan has made too many enemies to get the votes. Nearly everyone in the jury house hates him. April, Ollie & Libra wouldn't vote foe him on a bet & Jerry still looks at Dan as a Judas because of the Jessie deal. I wonder if he'll still feel that way when he finds out Dan was America's player. As stupid as he acts he probably thinks Dan could have said "no" until someone tells him there was no way.
I'm not sure that Memphis will take Keesha. The Renegade alliance has been pretty solid up till now, and Dan hasn't gone back on anything he's trying to do. He's loyal to Memphis. The other HG's don't realize it, but everything they do is for their alliance. Dan has a lot of enemies, but Libra doesn't hate him. April and Ollie do, cause they are total idiots and won't vote on game play. But then again, Dan may sway Michelle's vote, and she could possibly try and sway April and Ollie. You just never know in this game. Jerry on the other hand we know is a total moron, and he can't get past the Jessie thing, even though he himself didn't like Jessie, and doesn't realize Dan was AP, and like you said, probably still won't comprehend it when he's told. You would hope he would vote on game play, but he's a senile, insane old man, and a loose cannon – he would never give Dan his vote. I think it should be Dan and Memphis, and see if people vote on personal or game play.
Lisa, I agree about Dan & Memphis. They are close or seem to be. Renny is no fool & maybe she knows it's M. who set her up. So if K. is in the final 2 she would have a better chance than either Dan or Memphis. I think Renny can be very convincing when she wants to be. M. should keep this in mind on the choice of Keesha or Jerry. I'm just really tired of Jerry & didn't know J. said such nasty things as Pedro talked about. He's worse than pond scum.
On the live feeds, M/J have just struck a deal to take the old jerk to the final 3. M tried to get the jerk to give him some of his money, but the jerk wouldn't do it. Anyway, a DEAL is set. Now, whether or not M goes through with it is another question, but it does appear M will stab K in back. M has terrible body language around K and she is picking up that something is wrong. The old jerk is acting like he got a shot of adrenaline and is bouncing around the house in a very good mood.
At thi point I think K has to go, and that it is the smart move for the Renegades. . .but. . . after seeing the old jerk act so smug and cock sure of himself after the "deal" with M, I think it would be so classic if M would pull the rug out and send his bigoted asssss to the jury house tomorrow night.
Also, the HG have been told the POV is tomorrow night.
Jerrky hasn't won a single HOH or POV that was really critical in this game. The last HOH he won was 100% LUCK. If Dan ball had not taken that freak bounce and went from 32 to 19, Jerrky would not have won that. And as it turned out, it was great that Jerrky did win. . .his reign as HOH resulted in doing the dirty work of getting rid of Renny.
M and D have won every HOH or POV that was critical in this game. . . every single one. And there is absolutely nothing to indicate that Jerrrky can beat the Renegades in the final HoH comp. He has virtually no chance. Keesha?.. . she has a 10x better chance than Jerrky does. Sadly, Keesha is spending her final 28 hours in the BB house.
This site is updated WAAAAY to infrequently.. Apparently there is a live eviction tomorrow and Dan took his trip with Michelle.. Wish you guys would send many more updates to your awesome site..
Thanks for the update Pedro. It would probably be a good move to get Keesha out as she's a better player than Jerry. I just hate looking at him & his oh so patriotic hats. He's like no Marine I know, just a dirty old man. I didn't like any of the players in 9 and there were very few to like in 10. Long live Evel Dick!
I agree that Jerrrky is the worst of the human condition. In fact, I am really surprised he was able to pass any screening to get on this show, but, if I am D or M and I am looking at all the obstacles that stand in the way of getting both of them into the final 2, the Jerrky obstacle is much weaker than the Keesah obstacle. Now, if he were to somehow win the HoH comp, it would just be tragic, but odds are, that won't happen.
Also, I think that if by some BB miracle Jerrky would win the final HoH and make it to the final 2, both D and M would beat him. . .as opposed to K who, if she would somehow win the final HoH and find herself in the final 2, she would beat either D or M.
The smart play is to get rid of Keesha, now. The nice (stupid) play is to keep Keesha and get rid of the human debris, that is Jerrky. Sitting out here, the choice is obvious, but its different in there. But this is a game, and the object is to win 500k. . . so Keesha?. . well, she's got 24 hours left in the BB house. . . and judging from her attitude in the house the past 8 hours, I think she knows it.
Of course there is option 3. Memphis could pull a Marcellus and not use the POV, which would leave it to Keesha to decide who goes. She, of course, would evict Jerry because of her deal with Memphis and plus Jerry has been real nasty to her. That way Dan and Memphis have no blood on their hands. They would then get rid of Keesha and be F2. I know, I know, I'm dreaming…lol
Edie. .. .you just haven't been watching this game if you think Memphis is as effffing stupid as Marcellus was/is/will always be. Not an option.
There is blood on everyone's hand right now. . .
Keesha is going to join Renny. . .tick tick tick. . 23 hours and counting. .
We'll see. I guess just hoping to have 3 of the nicest HG's staying in the house for final 3 is wishful thinking. There's always that scare toward the end that some idiot that we hated through the whole game will win the money. This time, I would be happy with any of M/D/K winning, although in order, I would most hope it would be Dan, then Memphis, then Keesha. I just want that moron Jerry out so there is no surprises and no chance for him. He is such a POS, and I can't stand looking at him another week!!!
The only idiot left is Jerrky and he has no chance to do anything except get angry and spew his filth or have a coronary. Nice? Come on; was Dan "nice" when he played his POV "roulette" game? Was Keesha nice when she lied to everyone and led the ouster of Jessie? Was Memphis nice when he uttered the angry phrase, "F U old man".. as others were holding him back from attacking the old man; None of these people are nice. .. . Dan and Memphis are the best players. . . Keesha played the game using the right alliances at the right time, and Jerrky, well he just got pulled along because in everyone's dreams he will be in the final 2 with each one of them. This game proves nice guys finish last. . . Angie was nice. . and where is she? Steven was nice, where is he?
Ok, get this, right now on the feeds Memphis is reading the Bible!!! He is about to stick a huge 'get out of here, Keesha, knife) into her back and his is finding religion. . . interesting.
Jerrky is just one of biggest tools in the history of reality tv. . . .I would guess that he has used 14 minutes of his 15 minutes of fame.. . . he thinks he's gonna make the talkshow rounds when he gets out (he also thinks he's gonna win the game). . . No talk how (north of Springer) wants a sexist, racist, angry old fool on their show. I predict after the month of September 2008, we will never hear about this cretan again. . . what an idiot. .
21 hours from now Keesha will be "evicted from the Big Brother house. . ."
Lisa, I disagree with you on one point, I want Jerry to stay one more week. . . I want to see him get so close and then get booted. . . I want him to see Memphis and Dan rip out their Renegade bandanas and punk him in front of millions of people. . .I want to see him get played bigger than OJ got played. . . I want him to realize he is a HUGE fool. . ..I want him to understand he hasn't controlled anything for the past 6 weeks. . . . I want him to know he's just an old fool. . . . .
All of you owe Pedro an apology. . . right now, as you BBAD viewers know, Keesha is in a total meltdown. . . she knows!!! What a democrat. . . she thinks she is entitled to go on?? what a dumb blond. . . what a great show. . . .only in America. . . baby
The RENEGADES. .. ..live!!!!!!!!!! It will be so great when these tools figure out they were played for the past 6 weeks. . . . .keesha turned out to be a dumb blond after all. . . ..ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
When will these girls realize it will always be brows before hoe's.
I want Dan and Memphis final 2 and i want Jerry the rediculas old perverted, foul mouth man to go home. when Jerry gets to the Jury house he will realize he was an old 75 year old fool. I feel sorry for his family.
I agree with DR Will
