Madeleine McCann: Stephanie Bysh And Ariella Encroach On Praia Da Luz

MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann, Kate McCann and Gerry McCann

STEPHANIE Bysh is mother to Ariella d’Gama, who has passed a while in a children’s home.

What has it got to do with Madeleine McCann. Well, get this:

DAILY MAIL: “British mother whose daughter was taken into care by Portuguese police after she ‘went out drinking’”

A British man told police that her mother Stephanie Bysh, 44, had been ‘drinking heavily’… The town is five miles from Praia da Luz, where missing toddler Madeleine McCann disappeared in May last year from a rented apartment.

Yes, just five miles.

Yesterday, it was all just 15 miles from where our Maddie went missing.

The day before that it was all occuring 25 miles from Praia da Luz.

Anorak estimates that inside week, little Ariella will be actually inside the apartment used by the McCanns that fateful trip…

Such are the facts…

Michelle Obama Does Cameron Crowe

obama-partytime-300x136 Michelle Obama Does Cameron CroweMICHELLE Obama is shouting “Show Me the Money”. Write Anorak in NY:

I know I have lived in America for almost five years now and so I should be used to all of the schmaltz and ceremony of a presidential election, but do people really believe this guff? The excerpts I saw of Michelle Obama’s speech last night were more like the outtakes from a second rate Cameron Crowe movie than anything resembling real politics. So why is everyone so excited about it?

Black. White. Old Young. To the rest of the world they just all look so American…

Putin Blames America For Georgia

VLADIMIr Putin says it wasn’t us wot started it, it woz dem damn Yankees:

“The fact is that US citizens were indeed in the area in conflict during the hostilities. It should be admitted that they would do so only following direct orders from their leaders…

 ”The American side in effect armed and trained the Georgian army.

“Why… seek a difficult compromise solution in the peacekeeping process? It is easier to arm one of the sides and provoke it into killing another side. And the job is done.

“The suspicion arises that someone in the United States especially created this conflict with the aim of making the situation more tense and creating a competitive advantage for one of the candidates fighting for the post of US president.”

Polar Bear Watch: Narwhals For Global Warming

narwhals-for-global-warming Polar Bear Watch: Narwhals For Global WarmingPOLAR Bear Watch: Anorak’s look at polar bears in the news…

ON Reuters, readers learn:

Arctic sea ice shrank to its second-lowest level ever, U.S. scientists said on Wednesday, with particular melting in the Chukchi Sea, where polar bears were recently seen swimming far off the Alaskan coast.

The story is illuastrated by a picture of a polar bear - as it must be. The bear seems to be drowning in a choppy sea. Unless it’s put down first.

A Slapper Dash Hack Adds Up Sexually Transmitted Diseases

slapper A Slapper Dash Hack Adds Up Sexually Transmitted Diseases BRYONY Gordon, who dresses like a bit of a slapper and works for the Telegraph, is thinking about sexually transmitted diseases:

Sexually transmitted infections in teenagers have risen 21 per cent - cases of chlamydia and gonorrhoea are up, up, up, chastity is down, down, down, and while the average age to lose your virginity in the 1980s was 17, today a quarter of young people are sexually active before they turn 16.

Hacks are notoriously bad at maths, but here Bryony manages to mix up her percentages with her averages.

Can we say that in the 1980s, a quarter of young people were sexually active, as she says is now the case?

Yes, we can. But to do so would dismiss Bryony’s story and make it something of a non-story. Still, everyone likes a bit of a slapper in the Tele’s offices, so more of Bryony, please…

Gordon Brown’s Party Tips For An Alterantive Edinburgh

Gordon Brown says bring a brick to party.

From an ebay listing for Brown’s ‘Alternative Edinburgh’, penned by Gordon Brown in the early seventies:

“This book was edited by Gordon Brown when he was a student in the 1970s at Edinburgh University. It is entitled Alternative Edinburgh and was penned at the time when Brown was a socialist student leader - it is full of suggestions of how to live in Edinburgh for next to nothing!…my favourite one is how to turn up at a party without bringing a bottle with you - so what do you do… you bring a carrier bag of empty cans and put two half-bricks in the bottom of it to weight it down“.

Australia Bans Gymnastics AS Olympic Fall Out Continues

aussie-rules-players Australia Bans Gymnastics AS Olympic Fall Out ContinuesDID you notice that Australia finished below the UK in the Olympics medal table?

Now we learn that Belgian Gardens State School has decreed that performing a cartwheel on the playground is an offence that should result in suspension.

The school has banned all forms of gymnastics during breaks, including handstands and somersaults – even the humble forward roll has been given the flick.

Is this ban rooted in the fear of being seen by crowing British children, who may mock when the Australian tumble fails to meet the required level of expertise?

Invesco: Barack Obama Is The Conquering Greek Hero

Obama+002 Invesco: Barack Obama Is The Conquering Greek Hero

OBAMANIA Watch - Anorak’s look at Barack Obama in the news…

Hail to the living Greek God! Barack is among us

Says EU Ref:

Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama’s big speech tonight will be delivered from an elaborate stage resembling a miniature Greek temple. The stage, similar to structures used for rock concerts, has been set up at the 50-yard-line, the midpoint of Invesco Field, the stadium where the Denver Broncos’ National Football League team plays.

Some 80,000 supporters will see Obama rise up appear from between plywood columns painted off-white, reminiscent of a Holy Shrine Washington’s Capitol building or even the White House, to accept the party’s nomination for God president.

He will stride out to a raised platform to a podium that can be raised from beneath the floor to the singing of a heavenly choir. Courtesy of Cartago Delenda Est, we have a preview of his costume.

The Archaic period is almost upon us…
