Keegan's first BBC interview since leaving Newcastle

2011-03-01T00:05:00.005Z

"I saw an interview with Alan Pardew afterwards where he said he hoped to get some of the £35million and I thought, 'Alan, you ain't going to get any of that'.

"I want to see Newcastle do well... I think £35million for Andy Carroll...if I'd been manager I'd have took it, but how can you spend it on the last day of the transfer window?

"My big argument was that we were selling James Milner for a lot of money - probably above the valuation we put on him - and I said, 'Please don't sell him before we get someone in, I've got four days'.

"The reason I didn't want them to put that out and to hold on a little longer was so I could get a good value signing with the money. If you sell Milner for £11million then they say, 'If he's worth £11million, our guy must be worth £9million."

"It's business, it's the sensible way to do it."

Food is always better when properly seasoned. You'll enjoy cooking a lot more once you've mastered the herb and spice basics. The food will taste better, smell better, and impress your friends/family/coworkers/pets. Hooray!

I'm going to go over the seasonings I keep in my kitchen and use frequently. You don't necessarily need all of these to cook - I just tend to go a little nuts. ;)

These will also be listed in alphabetical order so you can find what you're looking for easily!

Have any suggestions for ways to use a certain herb/spice or a herb or spice that should be added? Tell me in the comments section. Let's collaborate! :D

Sarah Palin - The shadow

2008-09-15T08:15:00.004Z

@ philipcarrgomm.wordpress.com

"She stands for:
–Small town values — a denial of America’s global role, a return to petty, small-minded parochialism.

–Ignorance of world affairs — a repudiation of the need to repair America’s image abroad.

–Family values — a code for walling out anybody who makes a claim for social justice. Such strangers, being outside the family, don’t need to be heeded.

–Rigid stands on guns and abortion — a scornful repudiation that these issues can be negotiated with those who disagree.

–Patriotism — the usual fallback in a failed war.

–”Reform” — an italicized term, since in addition to cleaning out corruption and excessive spending, one also throws out anyone who doesn’t fit your ideology."

and there's a nice video of Matt Damon slagging her off too.
