Waldheim, who served as U.N. chief from 1972-81, was first confronted with purported evidence of his personal implication in wartime atrocities when he ran for the Austrian presidency in 1986. He consistently denied any wrongdoing, defending himself against disclosures made by his main accuser, the World Jewish Congress, and by foreign media.
But his initial denial of serving in the German army unit—and then assertions that he and fellow Austrians were only doing their duty—led to international censure and a decision by Washington to place him on a "watch list" of persons prohibited from visiting the United States. That ban was never lifted

He finally made it!!
Vice Premier Shimon Peres put an end to his historic losing streak Wednesday by beating MKs Reuven Rivlin (Likud) and Colette Avital (Labor) to become Israel's ninth president.
The Knesset elected Peres in a second round of voting in which Peres was the only candidate. 86 MKs voted in his favor, while 23 voted against him.
In his presidential acceptance speech, Peres, wearing a white yarmulke, gave thanks to his fellow candidates Avital and Rivlin, and paid tribute to his family.
"I have been in the Knesset for 48 years and not for one moment have I lost faith or hope in Israel,' said Peres. "What Israel has achieved in 60 years, no other country has been able to achieve. I hope I can be representative of our faith not because there are no problems but because we all want to overcome them."
"I will dedicate myself wholly to the nation," continued Peres, vowing to continue efforts to bring back the kidnapped IDF soldiers.
May he complete his mission and help strengthen Israel's resolve in this turbulent world.

This clip was probably the most difficult clip to watch for a number of reasons. When I first saw this clip I was shocked. It was unlike any other clip the girls posted (or that I had seen up to that point). Now before you think that I am some kind of prude or something, let me make it clear -I am not. All one would need to do is to see my resume (yes, I owned an adult business for about 4 years) and one of my best friends produces movies (including but not exclusively porn movies). So, when it comes to being shocked, I rarely am. However, I was in this situation because it was unlike their other 200+ clips. Sure smack my bitch up had drinking, no biggie. They had the beer is good clip...and I laughed and enjoyed it. There were other bar clips as well (keves comes to mind). But back to the clip, yes it was shocking when I first saw this clip. When I first saw the clip I looked at it more as an embarrassment. When I was younger I knew people who used to get drunk so much they could not find their car - let alone walk to their car. The thought that they were actually drunk, could not find their car and once they did, drove it in...made me wince. Next, the fact that this clip was posted gave me an additional concern because once this clip was on the net, there is no telling how it will affect their futures. As a professor, I tell all of my students to not post anything on the net unless they would be willing to say their contents face to face because there is no such thing as anonymity on the intertubes. Tasha and Dishka are young, intelligent and talented and I hope that the clip does not have any adverse affect, in their future. Ultimately, I voiced my concern to Tasha. She stated they were acting - and I totally believe her.
In the end, I remember what it was like to be in my early twenties and going to bars and having a good time with friends and co-workers. And, as I told others in the chatroom, this is probably a better glimpse into their lives than all of their other clips. And, I can appreciate that aspect. Though, the degree of the acting still makes the clip hard to watch. I can say that this is probably the one clip I have viewed the least of all Tasha's clips.
So, without further adieu - here is the clip:
Oh and when I asked Dishka who won, she said no one did. It was 0-0!
Now, LOL, what kind of sport ends at a tie? Well...that would probably be good for another post...pansy Soccer...PLEASE! <eg> Give me American Football!!! DALLAS! DALLAS!!! DALLAS!!!

Forces loyal to Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas of Fatah were ordered Tuesday evening to defend their positions in the Gaza Strip, and counter a “coup†by rival Hamas Islamists.
Hamas, stepping up a rapidly expanding power struggle, on Tuesday afternoon launched attacks against installations of security forces allied to Fatah, seizing a number of smaller positions and laying seige to others.
“Advance, our forces! Confront the seekers of the coup. Defend your dignity and your military honour. Defend the security of your people,†the command of Abbas’ National Security Forces said in a statement issued in Gaza.
Honestly, who does one root for in this contest, other than the deaths of all of them? Do I sound overly harsh?

The first one was posted on Dishka's Heep account. In this clip she sings to a IPOD! What a wonderful voice even when she was joking around in part of the clip. Now, is it me or does she not have the most wonderful eyebrows - they are just so expressive and compliment her attitude and expressions! My only question now is what was the name of the song she was singing too?
Next is a Tasha and Dishka clip! Now on the first one it's clear they filmed it in Tasha's bedroom. This one, I am thinking, they filmed it while on vacation. Dan and I discussed it - Dan thinks it was in Tasha's room as well. I don't. The room just looks too spartan. What do you think? Was it Tasha's room?
Enjoy!

Lets see their culture of death and hate tends to promote depression, shocking! I tell ya! Maybe if they tried to be productive, stop the culture of hate and death and you know tried to be productive members of society they might stop being depressed? Nah....that cant be....the cult of victimhood has led them this far, no reason to change now!

Steve has posted 10 Heep clips so far on youtube. Dan posted one clip on Live something...I dont remember..the information is on my work PC.
Is it me or is the quality of the clips better on Heep (well actually its better just has a flash file). But seriously, the quality of the clips are better on Heep's viewer than on youtube's.
Also, the titles of the Heep clips are approximate. My knowledge of Hebrew is damn near non-existant. Most of the titles were chosen based on the actions of the clip and Shawn made the original database. Any corrections would be very appreciated!
Anyway back to the important thing...today will be a twofer.
Suicides (I am not sure if this is the correct title)
THIS SONG ROCKS! I had to get the song downloaded and Tasha helped me with the artist name and song title. This clip is one of my absolute favorites!
Honey I'm Home
Tom boy Tasha! What can you say! Dino was awesome in the clip as well. My view of the clip was that Dino was calling 911 and Dishka placed him on hold! LOL Probably wrong, but that's what I thought.
Enjoy People!

Kylie Minogue - I believe in you
This is a very good song, very catchy and uplifting at the same time. One of my favorites from her!
Spiller - GrooveJet
THIS IS the JAM!!!! I remember working at EarthLink and listening to this Canadian Dance Station on the Net...This song was playing..and its just awesome - great beat and groove! It just makes you want to move!
Modjo - Lady (Hear me Tonite)
The latin rhytm and beats..GREAT song..I remember going out in Riverside and listening to this song on the Radio during the Mixings that went on Friday and Saturday Nights. Nice memories! Up until last year I had no clue there was a video!
Quad City DJs- C'mon N Ride It
The clip says that this song was in 1996 - I think its earlier. I remember going to parties when I was in college listening to this song. hehe....those were good times....From what I can recall LOL!
Mark Morrison - Return of the Mack
This was the first song I can clearly recall listening from a streaming radio station on the net - again this was the Canadian radio station that broadcasted near Buffalo, NY. This was back about 1995/96! Now Granted I have been online alot longer than that (Yeah I remember Compuserve, PC Link, Prodigy and bbsing) even before HTML was out and most grapics were in ANSI.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the clips as much as I do!

Anyway, yes I know the chatroom is not working. I have already sent emails to youtube to find out what the hell is going on. Dan found out that there are other chatrooms not working as well. Hopefully this will be fixed in a timely manner.
Also, you guys have to check out Tasha and Dishka Friday @ mere rhetoric! Totally funny! - For the record, I was able to identify 13 clips.
In case you didn't know - The Hey Clip is about to reach 15 million views. It should reach that either tomorrow or Monday. Here is the one Tribute that Tasha and Dishka did in honor of the clip reaching 10 Million!

The first clip is:
Betty Wight - Tonight is the Night
This slow jam is just smooth. And, I am sure everyone can relate to this!
Isley Brothers - For the Love of you
Bobby Caldwell - What you wont do for love
One of my absolute favorites! So smooth...so romantic....so perfect!
AND FINALLY:
The Floaters - Float On
This is THE JAM!!! You put this on...and your mind just floats away! One of my favorites since I was a little child!
Music today can in no way compare to jams such as these. They certainly do not make music like this anymore, and that is a true shame!

Now its time to have a glass of wine in celebration to being a citizen!
Maybe this will mean the end of the "Maverick" as a force in politics. G-d knows his chance to become President is so dead the body has already turned to dust!

This one is about them leaving on their vacation! It was an excellent clip showing them packing, a final gathering of friends and family and ultimately leaving. It almost looks like they went backpacking instead of a full blown hotel based vacation. Who knows maybe they did. This was a very nice clip..and I enjoyed watching it.
Now unto a different topic, its hard to believe that so few people on Heep actually comment let alone click the thumbs down on the girls clips. It's almost shocking to me.
Enjoy the new clip everyone! Enjoy the girls waving goodbye to the camera and to all of us!
UPDATE: My favorite part of the clip is 2:00 min into the clip. Tasha is twirling her finger in her hair and says oopsie. What can you say but adorable?
