'Orthodox' options...

Seems we may have a choice as to the next global conflict: it could be Holy War, with the Pope seemingly trying to reignite the Christian anti-Islamic fire.

"Show me just what Muhammad brought that was new and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached."

OK, that may seem a bit rough on old Moh but he was a warrior and his 'word' wasn't quite the love and peace message that JC preached, mind you that didn't stop myriad Christain offshoots slaughtering to their hearts content.

Or the option could be nuclear, with Chavez the clown forever stirring and poking a stick at the USA: I've mentioned this before [link] but now this:

He told Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmedinejad "under any scenario, we are with you just like we are with Cuba".

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has pledged to defend Iran from attack as the summit of the Non-Aligned Movement gets under way in Havana, Cuba.

All a bit depressing; I hope to post something more pleasant for my blog birthday (and Gavin's...David must have just had his or it's due this week). I've been away this week and will be for most of the time betweeen now and end of October, so don't expect much...OK, you weren't... :-)

P.S....this is the whole post ;-)

One's opprobrium offers opportunity…

Is she now the top paid model? In only one year she has gone from being Cocaine Kate, with many kicking her hard while she was down, to Kate the Great, in the latest Vanity Fair (Style Issue: click on the furry, Russian Hat picture...). We all know what followed but reportedly she made no admissions, and she was not arrested (photographs of alleged drug-taking are not admissible evidence in British courts). On 16 June 2006, British police finally dropped the charges for lack of evidence…

"However, in the absence of any forensic evidence, or direct eye witness evidence about the substance in question, its precise nature could not be established."

what a blow!… (sorry)

This opportunity from adversity…what a crisis…the Chinese word for “crisis” is so apt: it combines two different characters: danger and opportunity…and hence is exactly what has happened.

Her current contracts (for the Fall/Winter 2006 season) include: Rimmel, Belstaff, Beymen, Dior, Louis Vuitton, Roberto Cavalli, Longchamp, Stella McCartney, Bulgari, Chanel, Nikon, David Yurman, Versace, Mia Shvili, Calvin Klein Jeans and Burberry (this last being one of thos etaht dumped her last year). Kate Moss will also be doing some work for Virgin Mobile (she signed a $1.8 million deal for the rights to her autobiography a short while back after the Virgin mogul himself, Sir Richard Branson, convinced her she should set the record straight on various things….AND…Moss wants to become the first supermodel in space, and has signed up with Sir Richard's Virgin Galactic space flight.

Not mentioned in the list above but very important (to me…) is her being a major part of Agent Provocateur’s new range plus “The Dreams of MissX”…you can log in see these dreams if you’re a member ;-)

Not withstanding Kate in still 77th in Forbes Top 100 Celebrities just being pipped as top model by Brazilian beauty Gisele Bundchen (71st place)...OK, that's not her at her best but it was a flash ;-)

Owsblog options...

Sorry about the problems that seem to being caused by the new Blogger beta. For those that don't yet realise I switched at the weekend only to find out/ be informed afterwards that there was no 'communication' allowed between Blogger and Blogger beta, although this is temporary; read my warning to other Bloggers [HERE].

For those interested there is Owsblog2 that is the old 'normal' Blogger; I shall continue to post here but probably post the same on both blogs until Blogger/Google get it all sorted.

S.O.

¡OJO! Overt omission; owsblog overshoots...

Beta Blogger Buzz booboo! OJO is a spanish word meaning eye but also with the exclamation marks means attention...WARNING! This morning I had a link on the dashboard, wasn't there before and you may not have it yet (or you may have had it there for days/weeks!)...the link tells you about the beta set-up - don't change until you read this:

"Note that, even if your blog is eligible to switch, you may not have the link to do so on your dashboard. We are starting out by just switching over a limited number of accounts, but we'll add more and more as time goes on. However, if you still want to try out Blogger in beta, what you can do is to visit beta.blogger.com and create a new account. Later on, you'll be able to merge this account with your original Blogger account. Thanks for your patience, and we promise it will be worth the wait!"

So I changed to the Blogger beta set-up: it's newer looks nicer and has many improvements as far as playing with the look etc of your blog. All my education with html could have been avoided...HOWEVER...having gone through the very quick and easy change-over (you need a Google account, which is also easy or unnecessary if you already have one or a gmail account) I cannot comment on other blogs that are normal Blogger...when I tried a page comes up saying the following:

"Unfortunately, you cannot post a comment on a non-beta blog or claim a mobile blog using your Google Account. These features are coming soon."

There you have it: change if you want but be aware that as yet you cannot post on non-beta blogs!!! Which means I'm out in the wilderness a bit and I'll have to comment as a 'non-blogger'...I'll try to avoid being anonymous after what happened on Six's blog beach-paraphernalia post the other day (23rd Aug)...

Now you know. Message to Blogger:

EVEN THOUGH THIS WILL BE FIXED SOON IT SHOULD BE IN BIG LETTERS ON THE FIRST PAGE TELLING BLOGGERS! ESPECIALLY IMPATIENT ONES LIKE ME!!! GRRRRRR!!!
