Hugh Jackman doesn't know what to say about gay rumours
The Aussie stunner has been slamming rumours questioning his sexuality for years and wishes they would simply vanish into thin air.
"I'd be happy to go and deny it, because I'm not (gay). But, by denying it, I'm saying there is something shameful about it, and there isn't anything shameful," Contactmusic quoted him as saying in the Parade magazine.
The married star, who has two adopted children, further revealed that he heard more about the reports in America.
He added: "The questions about sexuality I find more here in America than anywhere else, because it's a big hang-up and defines what people think about themselves and others. It's not a big issue in Australia." (ANI)

Gail Anderson's Book List
Online design research is helpful and I do love my audio books when I'm driving, but regular old hardcovers and paperbacks will always rule. Books have memories attached to them, the occasional forgotten slips of paper, and sometimes even an earnest childhood signature. My list is comprised of design books I can't function without, titles that have had lasting meaning for me, and some that overlap both categories.
all genres
- filter by:
- all genres (0)
A 400-plus-page book that's a steal and essential for any graphic designer's bookshelf (along with In the Groove and Blue Note).
I have read and reread Bird by Bird in a quest to enforce my commitment to writing regularly, but I think my attraction to this book is really Anne Lamott's personal journey. This is one of those titles that people always recommend, and I can't believe I waited so long to get on board.
The first of many oversized softcovers on album cover design (and still the best).
The definitive title on Alvin Lustig.
Any Curious George or Madeline book makes my list of favorites. I even have the anthologies. I wish I had the originals my sister and I shared as kids, but a girl can dream…
Everyone's got a copy of this from a high school or college class, right? I still refer to it when writing, and of course, had to buy the illustrated Maira Kalman version, too.
Completely digestible bits of graphic design history in one manageable book. I find myself referring to it more than any other design book I own, and I've got shelves full.
In the Groove serves as a wonderfully concise introduction to Alex Steinweiss, Jim Flora, and Erik Nitsche—and who can resist a Desi Arnaz album cover?
Harriet the Spy, It's Like This, Cat, and later, all of the S. E. Hinton books, were childhood favorites that still resonate to this day. Perhaps it's the city kid side of me that identified with the adventurous loners I met through their stories.
Design doesn't get any more smarty-pants than Paula Scher. And you might as well pick up her map book while you're at it. I actually read Make It Bigger—meaning I didn't just look at the pretty pictures, and scan the captions. That's how smarty-pants it is.
One of the smartest and most interesting volumes I've ever listened to on audiobook. It pretty much proves the notion that success doesn't just happen by chance. I enjoy Malcolm Gladwell's voice, too, so this one's gotten lots of car time. (And I've seen him around my neighborhood and have almost said hi, since I feel like we're old friends after so many listens.)
This is the ultimate Paul Rand book.
If you can dig up a used copy, it's worth the investment. There are lots of books about wood type, Victorian design, and printing techniques, but the reissue of Lewis's 1962 Printed Ephemera sets the standard.
I first saw this beautiful brick of a book when I was a young designer at Rolling Stone. A friend had a tattered copy—typesetters and designers often cut letters and dingbats out as needed—and I knew that I had to acquire my own. Of course, this was back in the dark ages before the Internet, so finding one meant scouring book fairs and flea markets. If you can score a 1923 ATF, do not hesitate to make the purchase. It will teach you everything you need to know about classic typography and good design.

William H. Robbins 73900342
I made the memorial for William H. Robbins after going to Oakwood Cemetery in Raleigh, NC and taking random photos of tombstones. It's a few years later and I'm thinking there might be a family connection to this William Robbins since he apparently was from Randolph Co, NC and my Robbins were supposed to have left Randolph Co in the late 1700s. Yes, it's a stretch but I don't discount anything. Any chance your Robbins include a Jacob Robbins (1796-1874) who was born to James and Hannah Jarrett Robbins? Cheers.

Hi Kevin, Thanks for the updates to these memorials! I wanted to check and see if you are in any way related to these folks? If so and would like to maintain their memorials, I'd gladly transfer them to your care. I'm not related at all� they were buried near some photo requests I was photographing that day and wanted to make sure I had all family members nearby. Just let me know! Thanks, Dana

How do I Approach a Plus Modeling Agency?
Once you determine what type of modeling you are best suited for, check out our listing of plus modeling agencies in the USA and around the world.
Plus Agency Open Call
If they do an open call (A specified time when they will see models) once a month, attend the open call. When you go there bring two photos with you. A headshot AND a full body shot. Your name and stats should be on the back as well as contact information. If you have a portfolio, bring that as well or a comp card.
Mailing Your Photos to a Plus Modeling Agency
If they ask for you to mail in your information, include a short letter to send with your images. Your images should be at least 600 X 900. Not too big and not too small. Please do not send cell phone pictures, pictures at your prom, wedding or birthday or photos with anyone else in them! You should not be doing any 'peace' or 'gang signs'; they should be simple photos that show your face, skin and figure.
What do I wear when I am meeting
with a modeling agency?

Thanks, Jessica Proctor and if u would like to reach me by phone my number is 8283900611
I go through an agency now but it is not a plus size agency. I've gained some weight after a few years and I believe that I would be a perfect candidate for this! I am 5'9 and 180 lbs but very curvy!
Ive been trying to get into plus size modeling for years
Hello I am from a small town I read the requirements for a model call, but do not have any funds to do this. I know I'm being a diva right now and asking for a special request, but please just look me up on Facebook. I promise you won't be disappointed.
I just want a better life for my family and posing for the camera comes naturally to me.
Thanks if you would even consider this request, it never a hurts to ask. All u can do is try, right?

The other thing that this company does is to renew your contracts without your knowledge. I opened two accounts with a 1 year contract, I was about to change service after a year when I noticed that my contract expiration date had changed on both contracts. But now they were for TWO additional years. I have never received any correspondence or calls regarding extension of my contracts. They now tell me in customer service that I told them to renew the contracts. I know that this is not true because I was counting the months to end their sorry service. Now I'm stuck in eternity of renewed contracts that I will know nothing about when they decide to renew them. There is nothing that I can do but cancel the service while in contract and take a big pre-expiration penalty.
I will also mention that their service continually goes to roam in places that they say that they have service. There have been times that in my own house the phone has gone to roam. This aggravates in more ways than one, when I took out the service I had a no charge roam service that they took a fee out for, now they have no record that the 'no roam charge service" was ever on my account. I just can't believe that the FCC allows this company to get away with this fraudulent activity. I'm sure that the bad practices are widespread with their customer base.

Helen Clark: Speech at the Global Launch of the 2014 Human Development Report "Sustaining Human Progress: Reducing Vulnerabilities and Building Resilience"
U Thant International Conference Hall
United Nations University
Tokyo, Japan
Thursday 24 July 2014
I am delighted to be launching the 2014 Human Development Report, "Sustaining Human Development Progress: Reducing Vulnerabilities and Building Resilience", in Japan - a recognised leader in disaster risk reduction and human security. Thank you, Prime Minister Abe, for your willingness to participate in this global launch today.
The topic of this 23rd global Human Development Report is particularly timely. As countries gear up for a final push to achieve the Millennium Development Goals, increased volatility has become the new normal, with disasters and crises threatening to stall or reverse that progress.
Syria, South Sudan, Central Africa Republic – these are just some of the countries where human development has gone into reverse because of the impact of serious violent conflict. Extreme weather events, such as last November's typhoon in the Philippines, or the floods across Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, and Croatia in May, can lead to loss of life and the destruction of livelihoods and infrastructure, reversing development gains in just hours. Here in Japan and in my own country, New Zealand, earthquakes and their flow on effects have also devastated communities.
But the development impacts of crises, and the numbers of lives lost, are not the same everywhere. That is because, as this Human Development Report states, there are policies and steps which can be taken to reduce vulnerability, and help build the resilience of individuals and communities to withstand shocks.
No one would pretend that this easy. This Human Development Report estimates that almost 1.5 billion people across 91 developing countries are currently multi-dimensionally poor—with overlapping deprivations in education, health, and living standards. A further 800 million are identified as at risk of falling back into poverty. This reminds us that it is not enough just to lift people out of poverty; we must ensure that their escape is permanent.
With this in mind, this Report calls for universal access to basic social services, such as health and education, stronger social protection measures, including pensions for the elderly and provision for the unemployed; and a commitment to full employment. All measures taken along these lines reduce vulnerability.
Universal provisioning of basic social services, the Report argues, is feasible across the board, including in poor countries. It is a wise investment which locks in development gains, boosts social cohesion, and enhances the resilience of societies as a whole to adversity.
The Report calls for more responsive institutions and laws which make societies fairer and more inclusive. These, it argues, are particularly important for groups of people identified as "structurally vulnerable", often due to discrimination and exclusion because of their gender, ethnicity, job type, or socio-economic status - to name just some factors.
The Report also presents evidence on how vulnerabilities vary across the life-cycle. Setbacks during certain periods, such as infancy, childhood, the transition from school to work, and in old age, may be particularly difficult to overcome. Targeted and timely investments during these sensitive periods of people's lives help us all reach our full potential.
No matter how effective policies are in reducing individual and societal vulnerabilities, crises – particularly those caused by natural disasters - will continue to occur with potentially destructive consequences. Building national capacities to predict and prevent conflict and unrest, and investing in disaster preparedness and recovery, does enable people and their communities and countries to manage and mitigate crises and recover more quickly from shocks.
Here, let me commend Japan for all the support it has given to the Hyogo Framework for Action 2005-2015, Building the Resilience of Nations and Communities to Disasters, and for agreeing to host the Third UN World Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction in March 2015.
The findings of this Report are an important contribution to the process of renewal of the Hyogo Framework, and of formulating the post-2015 sustainable development agenda which will replace the MDGs. This is the first time that the twin concepts of vulnerability and resilience have been examined together through a human development lens. If this report is heeded, if life cycle and structural vulnerabilities are addressed, and if conscious efforts are made to lift resilience to crises and disaster, then I have no doubt that many of the kinds of setbacks we see to human development today can be averted.
Download the report
Sustaining Human Progress: Reducing Vulnerabilities and Building Resilience
The Report highlights the need for both promoting people's choices and protecting human development achievements. It takes the view that vulnerability threatens human development and, unless it is systematically addressed, progress will be neither equitable nor sustainable.

Rabbi Forman will be on Sabbatical this summer from June 20-August 18, 2016.
Just as Shabbat arrives every seven days, similarly does a sabbatical year arrive every seven years. In the Book of Leviticus (Chapter 25) we are commanded to let the land rest every seven years. So, too, do some individuals take time during their careers to reflect, renew, and discover creative new ideas to enrich one's self and others.
Starting June 20th, I will be spending two months this summer doing just that. I will be attending the Kenyon Institute for a portion of that period at a writing seminar called Beyond Walls: Spiritual Writing at Kenyon for clergy of all faiths. And I will be finding time to write, read, and learn about new ways of connecting and communicating with all of you. I look forward to reconnecting with all of you after August 18th .
Please contact the office at 908-806- 2122 on Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays for any questions or concerns. In case of an emergency, please contact our president, Kim Turner, email@example.com.
Thank you for giving me this opportunity for renewal.
Have a rewarding summer.
Rabbi Joe Forman

"May I help you?" - Conference Slides From POSSCON
Paw Prints: Writings of the maddog
In March I attended POSSCON in Columbia, South Carolina for the second time. I wrote about their conference last year, and this year's conference was slightly bigger and even better than last year. This year they had four tracks, Leadership, Technical, Healthcare and Education.
For those of you who have not been to Columbia, it is the place where people smile at you when they greet you, where people say "sir" and "m'am", "please" and "thank you", and (according to the Mayor) the weather is perfect every day. Add to that the comfortable conference hotel and the fact that good beer and southern cooking is right across the street from the convention center, and you probably can guess why I like going back.
Mr. Steve Benjamin, the Mayor of Columbia, spoke at the speaker's dinner the night before the conference started and offered us a "get out of jail free" card (actually his business card). I was the only speaker to accept one, but everyone agreed that for me it was good insurance.
As always, I met some new friends, and (since I had been to this conference before), enjoyed seeing some old friends. Last year they were just starting to put together the Consortium for Enterprise Systems Management to work toward expanding the number of Enterprise Systems IT people in the Southeast. This year they opened a new facility in downtown Columbia which has rooms to offer workshops and other events, as well as for staff to coordinate their programs.
One of things that POSSCON does is to video tape a lot of their speaker's talks, and to make them available online to anyone who wishes to see them. They have just posted their videos.
You may want to look at the speaker's abstracts and pull down their actual slides first, as some of the video of the slides tried to capture the speaker also, and so the speaker's slide content in the video is a little small and hard to read. It may be easier for you to then listen to the video and read the slides that you have pulled down separately.
For those of you who are interested in FOSS trends in the marketplace, I can particularly recommend the talk by Jeffery Hammond of Forrester Research. This was Jeffery's second year at POSSCON and I enjoyed his perspective on things both years.
Another area that I really enjoyed was the workshop on 3D Printing and Open Hardware. Jim McCracken and Neil Underwood brought along several 3D printing devices, and I walked away with a really cool Android "Robot" that I was told would hold my Android phone, but which I may use to hold business cards on my desk since my phone mostly sits in its charging cradle if it is sitting anywhere.
So for those people who (unfortunately) could not make it to this conference, or (as in my case) were busy giving their talk in another track while interesting talks were going on in parallel, you can now pull the talks down, flip through the slides and listen to the speakers present. Almost as good as being there, but you won't be able to taste that good southern food, nor get out of jail for free!
Carpe Diem!

I am just wondering if anyone looks better with alternate hair color than their natural one? or know anyone else who does? I haven't seen my natural color for 21 yrs. (dark blonde/ashy brown color - nothing exciting - in the fall/winter its dark and in the summer it gets dark blonde). I am debating changing it from blonde back to my natural hc but I am really afraid. I was going to have it done last month but chickened out. I am so sick of the upkeep b/c my hair grows so fast but I am so afraid I will hate it and it will make me look older. I was seriously 14 the last time I saw it. I am also afraid DD won't recognize me. My DH says go chestnut color w/ blonde highlights but that again means upkeep plus I look better w/ cooler colors not so much caramels or honey colors. I go to the salon tomorrow. IDK if I am going to get my roots done blonde/foils or leave a brunette. Yikes! Thoughts?
Updated Pics* Anyone think some ppl look better w/ dyed hair color than natural color?
I agree the upkeep and the roots are no fun. Thanks!

Everyone who colors their hair thinks they look better with the alternate color. Otherwise they wouldn't do it.
Fuckin Renee! 😂 -Megomomma
When i always thmalk about this to a doctor they always see me lije a mad face. - isabelizabeth
^^^I meant on others as well (obviously if they loved their narural they wouldn't dye it) For instance my mom has beautiful dark brown hair but has been dying it blonde for 20 yrs. She looks better as a brunette though..
My sister has natural dark hair but dyes it coal black and looks better w/ dark brown. They both believe they look better w/ the alternate colors. Some ppl look better with a diff. color and others look better w/their natural color (Lindsay Lohan for instance looks 100 x's better as a red head than a blonde)
Mommy to a beautiful girl (5 yo) and 2 angels ^9/15/11^; ^4/18/12^. After 3 yrs. of TTC #2 -Rainbow Baby Boy born 4/29/15
Well I did it. I went brunette (its been 21 yrs. since I have seen my natural hair color) and I love it. It looks better than I anticipated. It looks like the Alyssa Milano hair shade pic I posted but w/ out the added reddish brown highlights. The base is the same though. I got home late tonight and I had to make 8 dozen Snickerdoodles for my neighborhoods' cookie exchange tomorrow so I will post a pic of how it turned out tomorrow.

Publisher's Description
Politics isnt a four-letter word.
Everyones been at that dinner party. The conversation takes a political turn. The arguments start, the atmosphere grows tense, and all that remains is a hopeless stalemate and an awkward silence. Makes you wonder . . . is thoughtful and productive dialogue about politics even possible?
In Honoring God in the Red or Blue, Dr. Amy Black addresses the debaters as well as those intimidated or annoyed by the debaters; political junkies and the contented uninvolved. She explains the purposes and limitations of our system and helps readers create realistic expectations for government. While Gods truth is perfect, human application of it is not, a reality that shouldnt deter us from engaging in debate and staying informed. Rather, it should challenge us to raise our standards for how we speak about the issuesand those in office.
Its time to approach political divides with an extra measure of grace. Success begins with seeking Gods honor first and foremost, regardless of where we fall on the political spectrum. Dont limit yourself to chatting about the weather.

IreneUnited States4 Stars Out Of 5Like politics?June 4, 2012IreneUnited StatesQuality: 4Value: 4Meets Expectations: 4Not politics! Don't ever talk about politics with family and friends right? Well this book talks about it and is an easy guide to navigating those awkward dinner table talks! This is a good instruction book with easy ways to talk about politics in a balance way. I like how the author shows that all Christians should approach these talks with respect and show love in our responses no matter if we agree with the other person or not. Her examples will help you debate issues in a considerate manner. If you know someone who is really into the politics scene they can learn from reading this book. Any person who does not enjoy politics can still read this book and learn some ways to diffuse an out of hand discussion! The idea of the book is a good one but the actual book did not meet all my expectations. That said, I still gave the book 4/5 stars.
I would like to thank NetGalley and the publisher for the copy of this book I enjoyed reading. I gave an honest review based on my opinion of what I read.

Column - The public sorts out 2DayFM
Andrew Bolt
–, Thursday, December, 13, 2012, (2:12am)
IF there's one thing the 2Day FM prank call disaster proves, it's that the public can be trusted to punish the wicked media.
Consider the fallout since British nurse Jacintha Saldanha killed herself, having three days earlier been tricked by 2Day FM hosts Mel Greig and Michael Christian, who were pretending to be the Queen and Prince Charles.

Have Your Say
Your mods refused to publish this last time for whatever reasson,. so I'll post it again, hoping at least you will read it.
Four groups you DO NOT MESS WITH or "prank"
Their jobs are bad enough without an imbecilic "stunt:" like this. Calling a hospital in an attempt to get private information on a patient.
Fire 'em both and never let 'em anywhere near a radio station for the rest of their miserable lives.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (07:03am)
Thu 13 Dec 12 (09:07am)
I totally agree.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (09:10am)
Yes, I agree with you as do many more I imagine. But in the cooler light of day, the people just as much to blame are all of those in our society who laugh at these type of jokes. I don't, you probably don't either, but plenty do.
I understand better now, what Andrew was 'saying' in his thread the other day. This Govt was going to use this incident to validate further its threatening censorship of free speech.
I for one think the public outcry against the incident and 'reparations', both physical and emotional paid by the perpetrators is enough.
Democracy is more robust than we think.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (09:40am)
Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (09:42am)
Thu 13 Dec 12 (01:45pm)
Fire 'em both and never let 'em anywhere near a radio station for the rest of their miserable lives.
Sacking these two does nothing about the systemic problem of prank calls by media businesses. They'll just continue, with other individuals making the calls.
No business sacks an employee for correctly following procedure. Procedures are rethought and amended to ensure the same thing won't happen again.
As long as media continue to try to attract the wreckless and infantile part of the audience with rubbish like prankster calls nothing will be fixed.
Four groups you DO NOT MESS WITH or "prank"...
Totally agree. MUCH better ethic for business to adopt.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (02:05pm)
4 groups that adults don't mess with, unfortunately there are no adults at Austereo.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (04:37pm)
Agreed, but get all responsible including the faceless women and men.
Do what others do and get permission to tape the call at the beginning.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (05:03pm)
hear hear!
Thu 13 Dec 12 (05:10pm)
Actually you make a good point. Imagine if they did a similar stunt with the CIA. I think the pranksters have learnt their lesson, but in case they haven't I now agree they should be sacked. As for the Biblical reference with stones and sin, yes we all have sinned but we also have a responsibility to conduct ourselves properly and decently. Otherwise, we would have to let anyone do anything they like in this world, and that would lead to a total collapse of our society.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (05:34pm)
Memesis, you're sounding a little precious there. Never prank emergency dispatchers, because that diverts resources away from REAL emergencies. Granted.
As for pranks to hospitals, they happen quite a bit, and a fair few are there, where more security minded people are in charge, to test the security of the system. Both these nurses SHOULD have been fired on the spot for breaching the privacy laws in the UK, at the very least the one who divulged information over the phone without verifying the identity of the caller. I'm sick of nurses being this protected species when they screw up, and screw up badly. Don't believe me? Look at most medical malpractice suits - a fair few times the doctor and the hospital itself are defending, but the cause of the patient being discharged before they were supposed to with medical complications? Nurses not recording or fudging observations on medical charts, nurses not administering correct dosages or changing dosages of medications, nurses.. well, nurses generally NOT DOING THEIR JOB.
The DJs did their job, they entertained. The nurses screwed up, got protected, and now, tragic though the death is, they are being canonised for not doing their job. Ridiculous!
Thu 13 Dec 12 (10:48pm)
Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.
Having served in an emergency services unit, married to a nurse, come from a family of cops, I'd say it would be a VERY safe proposition that i would never do anything so mind numbingly stupid and utterly reprehensible as to waste the time of people whose job it is to protect those in danger and care for the sick and injured.
Fri 14 Dec 12 (09:14am)
Thank God somebody has the sense to post this opinion.
You do not prank call hospitals, let alone to impersonate a head of state in order to breach medical privacy laws.
It's a black and white issue.
Fri 14 Dec 12 (03:12pm)
The media persist in using, and emphasing, the term 'prank' as though it serves to ameliorate the hoax; for that is what it was. All of those involved in the hoax, especially the supposed grown-ups who sanctioned it, need some time to reflect on what constitutes responsible conduct. After they have faced the music, a big dose of voluntary community service might go some way towards this.
Fri 14 Dec 12 (07:27pm)
I also tend to agree. They made stupid prank they ought to go. Of course, with them, the station manager who allowed them to do it (or maybe even encouraged them to do it).
for the punishment to be meaningful it needs to last longer than the attention span of the public. the station knows it only needs to wait out the next crisis to take attention away from it, and it can go back to being completely foolish.
Fine them, suspend their broadcasting license, or ban the directors from holding a license. something meaningful.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (08:54am)
Thu 13 Dec 12 (12:24pm)
No… all you are doing is handing power to some faceless bureaucrat.... That's the point of Andrew's column. We don't want more regulation on our freedom. We don't want to punish the 95% because 5% are idiots.
The best solution is not to listen to them, not to advertise with them, and to condemn them publicly.
Myself personally I think there is more to this story than we have read aboutinthe press, Im wondering if the nurse had ongoing mental problems because most of us have had problems at work or home and most of us deal with them one way or another but to take your life for something so trival makes me think there is more to this story
Thu 13 Dec 12 (10:16am)
Thu 13 Dec 12 (02:03pm)
mick, I have no doubt that there is significantly more to this than meets the eye.
That fact is actually at the very heart of the danger / problem with "pranking", you don't know what you are reaching into, until maybe it's to late.
Hence the need to do such mundane things as gain prior approval before going to air.
2Day FM / Austero should loose their broadcast licence, this incident doesn't just represent a failing of two hosts, it represents a failing of a whole organisation to even have the vaugest grasp of their responsibilities as broadcasters.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (02:19pm)
This is the problem.
The poor lady may have had other problems. This is why it is so dangerous to medal with peoples lives when you know nothing about their background, their situation or their vulnerabilities.
Would you want to be the person that triggers the final straw that is enough to tip someone over the edge?
Fri 14 Dec 12 (12:37am)
She may not have had on going mental problems. She may have believed it was an honour to look after Kate Middleton and when the prank call details appeared in the media she may have felt she betrayed her, the royal family and her own family. Her family in India may have been very honour driven people, once her family in India found out what happened it hit the fan, great shame on the family. Jacinta Salandha might have thought she was going to lose her job as well.
What might be seen as fun to the radio show hosts and management might not have been to this nurse, they didn't know her, it was in another country and a different culture.
Fri 14 Dec 12 (12:18pm)
Mick, she comes from a culture for whom "honour" is paramount, quite unlike the "I've done nothing wrong" Australian attitude to everything, but it does suggest that we really aren't in a position to judge her motives when we don't understand,
Fri 14 Dec 12 (03:34pm)
These other factors you allude to are not really relevant if the hoax call pushed her over the edge. It is a case of cause and effect. If you see a cyclist riding along the road and, for fun, you give him/her a little push which causes an accident, do you excuse yourself on the grounds of the rider's lack of expertise or ability to cope with your interference? But for that ill-advised hoax call, the nurse would probably be still alive.
The questio still has not been asked , how did she die ? And , did she kill herself or was there foul play ? I think her sister is right no one would kill themselves over that stupid prank , it was in no way even offensive .
Thu 13 Dec 12 (10:20am)
Thu 13 Dec 12 (04:40pm)
She passed the call to the other Nurse who may have got into trouble.
Whatever they find it seems to me the hoax call drove her over the top.
Fascinating. As long as someone dies the system works fine.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (10:39am)
Thu 13 Dec 12 (11:33am)
Thu 13 Dec 12 (12:48pm)
Like the boat people issue?
Thu 13 Dec 12 (01:14pm)
At last! I've uncovered the secret that explains why Leftards comment the way they do - Robotic Stupidity.
Reco, Mr Jordon, Skiman, Oneman, Tracey Conlan, Big Ted! You lot remind me of Himey on Get Smart!
Thu 13 Dec 12 (04:49pm)
In your case, the system isn't working.
What about the English press that dramatized this more than was necessary, did that push this nurse over the edge?
Thu 13 Dec 12 (10:46am)
Thu 13 Dec 12 (02:27pm)
Would your reaction be the same if it were an Australian nurse who died after a prank call from a couple of DJs in the UK?
The attempt to pay off the family with a thinly vieled bribe is a further continuation of management failures by 2Day
The family needs to reject this tainted cash which is little more than an effort to restart advert revenues.
There adequate clean cash from honorable sources for any trust fund.
This episode will become an example in most management texts on how not to deal with a crisis.
The solution is values, which is in zero stock levels at 2Day.
Values would have said stop this is wrong, not having that pathway to keep 2Day in the baliwick of honor and honesty is where this fiasco beget itself.
2Day has dishonored our country, insulted most of the world and they still do not get it.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (11:06am)
Thu 13 Dec 12 (11:51am)
I cringed when I heard the Radio station was trying to appease their conscience by sending half a million dollars to the family. Do they not realise they were adding injury to insult by doing so.
Do they seriously think money is the answer to everything. Sadly I think this is the case. I very much doubt the family would touch this tainted money.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (01:34pm)
Well said Rocky. Our stupid polititans are disgracing this country enough, without the need of our radio fraternity adding their stupid stunts.
Fri 14 Dec 12 (11:45am)
Austereo actually has huge and entrenched cultural problems.
I wouldn't hire anyone who has had anything to do with that dysfunctional circus.
Following all the instruction to subscribe to your article I had great difficulty in doing so. There couldn't be much one could do incorrectly so I wonder what happened. I gave my email address, gave my password and couldn't get much further.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (11:54am)
Correct me if I am wrong, does anyone really know why the nurse actually took her life. Or is it all speculation. Seems to me that there are a lot of people making conculsions and yet who really knows. I do not remember such a media beat ever. I am amazed at the comments.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (12:10pm)
If the nurse had not over reacted so tragically, the prank would have caused zero harm and lots of giggles.
Possibly hospitals would have sharpened their act regarding patient information given over the phone, in which case a positive would have come of it.
But what would the anonymous of the lynch mob say if the radio hosts, heaven forbid, caused themselves similar tragic self harm as the nurse did....?
The nurse was possibly teased and reprimanded while the hosts have been hounded by hatefulness and character assassination.
Reality check timely in my opinion.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (12:10pm)
Well said Andrew and utterly correct. Our slander and libel laws are more than enough for curbing vexatious claims, malicious lying and defamation.... and good ol' public outrage is the best medicine for the outrageous and their pranks and public clangers.
I'm sick of the political classes attacking our freedom every time we confront one of life's little problems as a society..... The truth is these political bullies are more of a danger to our Society than our own occasional missteps and bad choices.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (12:10pm)
I agree with mick and thebigquestion above.
To me it is just amazing that the verdict has already been made, when we do really not know anything, I repeat ANYTHING about the circumstances in which that woman died. She just passed on a call, it was not even her who gave away the information.
And even if we did know for sure that the suicide is directly and uniquely related to that phone call 3 days earlier, I believe that no-one has any right to judge anybody for what happened. The whole story would just be a very sad and drama-charged one, but overall absolutely unfortunate. It is just too easy to reach any conclusion with hindsight.
Please just stop judging others, and be thankful for all those silly things that anyone of us has surely made in the past, and that did not end up in tragedy.
Anyone of us could be in those DJ's shoes.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (12:44pm)
Sorry Andrew, but this is not a case of picking on the media. This is a case of pointing out and idiotic action which has, directly or indirectly, lead to a young lady loosing her life for doing her job.
Saying that we should not criticize the two DJs concerned because they part of the media organization is the same as your (correct) stance that people should not be wrongly accused of sexism for criticizing the PM.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (02:24pm)
I bought that 'Mexican' paper again, for this column. It's really good. Really good. Thank you.
I agree with Skiman too, though, that what's truly wicked is that it should take the loss of a good woman's life for this 'lesson' to be learned by some in the media. And I still wonder if those two are shattered by the damage to their careers more so than the death of a stranger - whose significance, after all, registered so faintly on their moral radars that they evidently didn't have a moment's pause over the possible damage to her career, let alone her life, from their little prank. "I Started a Joke" indeed.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (06:48pm)
It may be a good idea for all to stop making comments on this topic and wait until the contents of the letter Nurse Jacintha Saldanha left behind for her husband are made public....Until then, the truth of the matter will not really be known.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (07:26pm)
Most of the comments here are rubbish. The 2Day prank was no more than that - a prank. As far as I know, no one was ridiculed by the announcers; they just wanted to see how far they could go in their impersonations.
Are the attack pack suggesting that the nurse was so embarrassed by answering and transferring a telephone call that she committed suicide? Come off it! She was reported to be a devout Catholic, so suicide set off by such a trivial incident is out of the question!
The organization that really should be heavily criticised is the hospital that allowed the release of confidential information.
Thu 13 Dec 12 (10:30pm)
IF there's one thing the 2Day FM prank call disaster proves, it's that the public can be trusted to punish the wicked media.
I'm not so sure we public are that innocent in all of this Andrew after laughing along with media infotainers starting out down the slippery slope with Candid Camera and ending up with with the likes of candid chidren's messagebanks, paparazzi cameras, Big Brother, Borat and The Chaser all trying to outdo each other to infotain us more crassly.
Somewhere along the decline we completely forgot respect for privacy, commonsense and simple good manners and now we all have a hint of a young nurse' blood on our hands. Alongside that her suicide sat very uncomfortably as a sign of someone who took their professionalism very seriously if not far too seriously. 2 young radio announcers and a single radio station are very microscopic bit players in this poignant social message for us all.
Fri 14 Dec 12 (12:43am)
The station is getting maximum coverage with death threats and replay of the tears from the poor presenters, etc. It is whoever thought trying to ask permission is all that was needed before playing the" prank" should be held liable and the firm too if that was their policy.
Fri 14 Dec 12 (08:35am)
OK journo's you have had a good lick on this one, many readers are fed up with the one sided reporting especially by the English press who are trying to forget they hounded Princess Dianna to her demise. When the other side of this tragic story surfaces out of UK lets see how the story progresses, or will it be swept under the carpet if it looks like egg will be on the faces of the people doing all the hounding.
Fri 14 Dec 12 (08:38am)
The spindoctors at Southern Cross/Austereo are spinning furiously.
They have managed to confine the message to 2dayFM but in reality this disaster ran across their entire platform of numerous stations!

Late Goalsby not_blonde_really Dec 12, 2012 23:05Old Peculiar Old Peculiar Dec 16, 2012 10:11 Flag
Is it psychological? You are in front with 10 minutes to go. The manager takes off a forward and sends on a defender. Message received, stop playing the wining positive game and start the "hope we can hold on" game.
The Spurs game should be as we all want it. In the lead and wanting more goals.This is so obvious but no one agrees.

Some are quick to re-act!!!by A Yahoo! User Sep 1, 2012 19:42Old Peculiar Old Peculiar Sep 2, 2012 10:49 Flag
It is very simple. With the transfer window ludicrously extending into the start of the season late, hard bargaining deals will always go down to the last knockings. Accordingly team cohesion will not begin to happen until 4 - 5 games on. Some points will therefore be "lost". Does it matter? Is football a game or a business? Whatever faithful fans will lose out until the transfer date is changed to 31 July and hopefully remove the New Year window as well.

Early days but I have a feeling that UK players do not appear to be part of Spurs future.Sad, sad,sad.

Modric 65min ? He's goneby Roger Mellie Aug 28, 2011 17:07Old Peculiar Old Peculiar Aug 29, 2011 08:48 Flag
How many summers are needed to realise that transfers need completion before the season starts.Manager, Team, Fan frustration must count for something. Football is a business and bottom of the table is bad business.Wake up business managers and remember good team performance is still essential.

How friendly can you get?Kaiser Chiefs are hardly a threat to a Premier side and showed it very effectively.Spurs did not want to score and achieved that "goal" without breaking sweat and then when it appeared they might force a draw they stayed upfield to ensure a friendly result. Luckily I did not see the game live but as a downloaded repeat the fast forward (not a Spurs player) came in very handy. Still first game and very fiendly roll on Tuesday.

Luka & Levyby RAMBR0 Jul 6, 2011 21:36Old Peculiar Old Peculiar Jul 11, 2011 09:07 Flag
Most Spurs fans are awake and realistic. Let the business people do the business but let the manager and the team play the Spurs way. Win or not that is why we are Spurs fans.

Is Modric Really That Good?by Joan Jul 5, 2011 13:36Old Peculiar Old Peculiar Jul 5, 2011 16:10 Flag
Your understandable question and concern is applicable to not only Modric but all other "great" players. While they are at a club and want to be at a club they are valued and can become irreplaceable.As soon as they want to go and eventually do go they become a fond memory or a betrayer, but the team goes on. The most important factor of a succesful team is the passion each and every player has for the team. We have a great squad and most want to play for spurs and give their all. Some however do not show the passion factor and rarely give the never give up approach their team and fans expect.Support the players with Spurs passion and let those who want to go,go. One or two super players who are only interested in themselves can easily damage team moral.

if modric goes how about the othersby A Yahoo! User Jun 20, 2011 11:44Old Peculiar Old Peculiar Jun 27, 2011 08:21 Flag
According to today's (27 June )papers Chelsea are bidding for Bale & Modric, Liverpool for Lennon, Blackburn for Keene and Seville for Santos. All gossip or what? Despite Chairman's assurances when will they go? How will that affect the leftovers? Who will be bought to replace them? Does it matter that time is running out with the imminent tough start to the season? What ever Spurs will need more support than ever!!!!

I would hate to see Spurs turn into a Man City/Chelsea obscene money factory with annual manager changes, non-uk players and total discontent if the team fails to win cups/leagues.
Keep Spurs as it is with sensibly priced transfers buys, a good youth policy and on-going consistent management.If they do not win cups/leagues but give us the normal ups and downs of football then finishing 5th, 6th is not a problem.
The game needs transfer fee limitations not Tesco Uniteds. Even banks go bankrupt!

So What went Wrong...and when?by RAMBR0 May 3, 2011 04:52Old Peculiar Old Peculiar May 4, 2011 19:11 Flag
The spine of any great team is crutial. You need above average players in the following: Goalkeeper, Central Defender, Central Midfield and Central Striker. Whether one or two players of that standard in those positions they need to be available and playing well all season.So where do we fall down????Compliment those with a Bale or two and European football will be a regular feature without relying on others to fail.
However I am still very pleased with Spurs and Harry has our traditional style back in vogue. Well done Harry and the lads.
