SBS reveals bold 2013 line-up

SBS promised a bold and daring 2013 today, that will range the spectrum from "relevant and credible" to "bloody and unabashedly politically incorrect".

Tony Iffland, SBS director of television, today announced the 2013 program highlights, which he feels will continue the "sense of momentum" that follows a year he described as "tremendously successful".

With a mantra of "fresh, relevant and credible programs", Iffland highlighted return seasons of Once Upon A Time (with series two based around the Lebanese community in Punchbowl) and Who Do You Think You Are season five (which will have two extra episodes and include subjects such as Rove McManus and Asher Keddie), before announcing two potentially explosive documentaries for next year, examining mining in Australia and the Cronulla riots.

SBS will air the documentary Cronulla Riots - The Day that Shocked the Nation which is sure to spark heated debate. Photo: Andrew Meares

Dirty Business How Mining Made Australia is based upon the notion that "mining is a battleground that has forged and divided the nation", said Iffland, and the three-part series will examine the history of mining from the first gold rush to the latest political debate.

Cronulla Riots The Day That Shocked the Nation has been commissioned to run alongside Once Upon a Time in Punchbowl, and likely to stir up debate on what remains a heated topic.

Iffland also highlighted the first local drama commissioned by SBS in three years, Better Man, Khoa Do's tale of Tran Van Nguyen, the 25-year-old Vietnamese-Australian who was convicted and executed in Singapore for drug trafficking in 2005. Iffland was able to announce the cast for the show - which goes into production in Melbourne next week - including David Wenham as Julian McMahon and Bryan Brown as Lex Lasry, Van Nguyen's two lawyers, plus Claudia Karvan as McMahon's wife and Remy Hii as Van Nguyen.

Ann Coulter Calls Obama ‘The Retard’

Posted: at 11:48 pm

As is her custom, provocative conservative commentator Ann Coulter was decidedly politically incorrect in her assessment of the final presidential debate last night. Ms. Coulter took to Twitter where she used a derogatory term to describe President Barack Obama.

I highly approve of Romneys decision to be kind and gentle to the retard, Ms. Coulter wrote.

Her comment comes less than two weeks after Dan Niblock, the father of a young boy with Down syndrome, published an essay on the website of NBCs Today taking Ms. Coulter to task for using the same term in another tweet. Its apparently a habit of Ms. Coulters.

I want Ann Coulter to apologize for using a form of hate speech that is particularly searing to people who have special needs. This isnt the first time she has tweeted the word retarded to insult her rivals, and she needs to stop. Her behavior is not acceptable, Mr. Niblock wrote.

These complaints clearly havent had much effect on Ms. Coulter, who has been unapologetic of her past politically incorrect remarks. Still, we reached out to Ms. Coulter to see if she had any regrets about her post-debate tweet. As of this writing, we have yet to receive a response. We wont hold our breath.

Update (3:00 a.m.): In an email to Politicker, Ms. Coulter doubled down and made it clear shes not worried about upsetting anyone with her choice of words.

The only people who will be offended are too retarded to understand it, she wrote.

RAVENS: Pro Bowl linebacker Terrell Suggs practiced for the first time since tearing his right Achilles tendon, but he was extremely limited Wednesday. According to The Baltimore Sun, Suggs jogged from sideline to sideline on an adjacent field and also threw the football around to teammates during the media viewing portion of practice. "He's really the biggest key. We need him right now. It's a huge thing to have him back," linebacker Paul Kruger told the paper. "He's just the type of player that can really change a game and change a season for you. He's also a leader and someone who can really change the attitude and the atmosphere." It's unlikely that Suggs will play Sunday at Houston. Coach John Harbaugh classified him as day-to-day.

BENGALS: For the first time in his brief NFL career, cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick wasn't on the injury report. And, for the first time in his career, Kirkpatrick has a shot to play in a game. "That's coach's decision, I'm just playing my role, Kirkpatrick said, via the team's official website. When my number is called, it will be called. I'm not going to bug coach with that. It's not my job to ask. I'm ready. Body feels good. Just waiting. With the Bengals having a bye after Sunday's game, there's a chance that Cincinnati will decide to hold out its first-round pick to give him an extra week to rest the injured knee.

STEELERS: The Steelers rank near the top of the league in penalties per game. They're off to a disappointing 2-3 start. And rookie nose tackle Alameda Ta'amu was arrested after a late-night run-in with police over the weekend. But quarterback Ben Roethlisberger said there's not a lack of discipline under coach Mike Tomlin. I think people are just comparing him to Coach (Bill) Cowher, Roethlisberger told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. Every coach is a little bit different. ... Coach Tomlin is a players coach. Guys enjoy playing for him. He gets after us. He just doesnt do it in front of you guys (the media), which is good.

BROWNS: Vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan stopped by the Browns' complex with former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, who is a lifelong Browns fan. Ryan, though, is definitely not one. When talking to the team, it became apparent that Ryan got his quarterbacks confused, looking at Colt McCoy while talking about Brandon Weeden. "I think he saw the red (quarterback practice) jerseys and got us mixed up," Weeden said. "But he's got more important things on his mind right now than me and Colt. It was a good laugh."

Cincinnati Bengals, Cleveland Browns, Baltimore Ravens, Pittsburgh Steelers, AFC North, Ben Roethlisberger, Paul Kruger, John Harbaugh, Bill Cowher, Terrell Suggs, Mike Tomlin, Colt McCoy, Dre Kirkpatrick, Brandon Weeden, Alameda Ta'amu, Paul Ryan

Want a security pro? For starters, get politically incorrect and understand geek culture

Posted: at 11:48 pm

MIAMI -- While complaints can be heard far and wide that it's hard to find the right IT security experts to defend the nation's cyberspace, the real problem in hiring security professionals is the roadblocks put up by lawyers and human resources personnel and a complete lack of understanding of geek culture, says security consultant Winn Schwartau.

Take Janet Napolitano, U.S. secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, who has said the country can't find the right people for network defense. The real problem is a misunderstanding of computer geeks, their personalities, habits and their backgrounds, said Schwartau today during his talk at the Hacker Halted information security conference here.

NEWS: Gartner: 10 critical IT trends for the next five years

Computer geeks are discriminated against under hiring rules and legal niceties that often categorize them as undesirables. "We do not fit the mold. We at the outer limits of normal," Schwartau said.

According to Schwartau, there's a gauntlet of hiring obstacles today that actually work to discriminate against computer geeks who have the expertise to do the job of protecting government networks. Demands for college degrees and IT certifications and the ability to get IT security clearances should not be a priority in hiring, said Schwartau. "Forget education," he said, adding, "We need to re-design clearances -- they're a Cold War relic designed for nuclear secrets and 1950s crypto." The era of 9-to-5 is also over, he added.

He said what's holding up hiring IT security professionals can be found in the thinking of human resources departments that frown on conditions such as attention deficit disorder and autism, or obsessive-compulsive personalities which are typical of computer geeks willing to focus on an issue through the night. And although hiring rules in place tend to go the extra mile to accept alcoholism, the slightest type of illegal drug infraction makes it tough for job applicants. "We've got to start getting politically incorrect if we want to get the job done," said Schwartau.

If there are tests that need to be done to probe the basic trustworthiness of job applicants for sensitive network security jobs in government or industry, said Schwartau, it would be better to try industrial psychological profiling, making it clear that anyone that passed it and got hired would be subject to it over and over again during the time they were in their job.

Computer geeks could be asked something like, "If your wife and daughter were kidnapped, will you turn against my company?" he suggested. The answer would likely need to be "yes," because "anything else is deceptive."

"Do you need a secret clearance to defend a network? They say you do," said Schwartau, alluding to government rules. But the government is competing against private industry and, yes, the criminal world, for the kind of talent held by those who really know about network weaknesses.

Sign language users drop politically incorrect signs

Posted: at 11:48 pm

Miming a hook nose to refer to Jewish people is also now deemed unacceptable by signers, who have replaced the old sign with one involving a hand resting against a chin and making a short movement down, in the shape of a beard.

Gwilym Morris, from the Deafness Cognition and Language Research Centre at University College London, told the Guardian: We are nervous about this being seen as another example of political correctness because the changes are more about evolution rather than dictat of some body that approves language.

But Professor Benci Woll, director of the centre, said the changes in BSL were exactly like the changes to spoken English.

There are all sorts of words we used to refer to people 30 years ago that weve stopped using, she said.

The difference is that the change in BSL has been very rapid because it wasnt until deaf people were able to see each other over the internet that they were able to communicate with anyone who wasnt standing in front of them and see how foreign signers referred to themselves.

The younger deaf community doesnt use these old signs because of a clear process of political correctness.

Cindy Lange-Kubick: A capital time, on the Capitol steps

Posted: October 16, 2012 at 4:22 pm

Perhaps youve heard of The Capitol Steps, the politically incorrect comedy troupe that came to town Friday night -- no doubt lampooning empty debate chairs and wedging in jokes about Mormon underwear.

Well, those Capitol Steps made us here at Lincoln Life think about our very own Capitol Steps, the steps leading up to the north entrance of the grand Tower of the Plains.

And capital they are. All 48 of them, all carefully constructed of Woodbury light granite shipped from Vermont.

Climbing those steps, and counting them while climbing them, made us think of what all those steps have seen.

Theyve seen Abbott and Costello. (The duo were in town promoting war bonds in the 1940s, said Roxanne Smith, tourism supervisor for the Capitol.)

Theyve seen Jimmy Carter, too. (Rumor has it that on his 1976 campaign stop, the Republican governor wouldnt let him in the building.)

Theyve seen hundreds of protests and press conferences, about one a week, as traffic shuffles by the words carved into the building at the top of the stairs: The salvation of the state is watchfulness in the citizen ... .

Yes, free speech is welcome on the Capitol steps -- after filing for and receiving a permit, of course.

Vietnam War marchers. Civil rights activists. Neo-Nazis.

A man dressed in a dog suit and encased in a fake hot dog bun. (No one remembers if he was protesting hot dogs specifically or meat-eating in general.)

Obama, Romney Halloween masks hot sellers in election year

Posted: October 15, 2012 at 6:25 am

Every four years, Halloween gets a little scarier.

More profitable, too, for the holiday's merchants. Each presidential election year, there's an uptick in sales of candidate masks and other political paraphernalia to go with all the monster props, superhero suits and sexy maid outfits that sell this time of year.

"Sales easily quadruple in an election year," Jennifer Gracia, a product brand manager for Poway-based Disguise Inc., said regarding the Politically Incorrect line of masks of political figures the company makes.

The national Spirit Halloween chain, which has three locations in Long Beach, for example, has not only set up a mock voting booth in its stores to display candidate masks; there are QR codes on the booths that, when scanned by smartphones, link customers to the company's politically themed page where they can cast a straw poll vote for Obama, Romney or hot-selling costume characters like foul-mouthed stuffed bear Ted.

At the Marina Circle Center location, 4640 E. Pacific Coast Highway, Assistant Manager Rachel Durbin said the company partnered with Rock the Vote to promote voter registration.

"We have a link on our website so our customers can easily access Rock the Vote to register for the vote online," she said. "Voting is on everyone's minds during an election year, so we not only sell candidate masks, which are always in high demand, we encourage our customers to vote."

Spirit also runs a

So far this year, Obama leads Romney in the index, 65 to 35 percent, although that represents a 3 percent drop for the president since the first televised debate. Things are trending the same way on Disguise and the SoCal-limited Halloween Adventure's metrics.

Of course, there isn't a direct correlation between mask buyers and likely voters.

"Four years ago, we had a lot of Sarah Palin and John McCain masks," Durbin said. "This year it is all about President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney - we get a lot of customers coming in and asking. They are definitely a hot seller."

Democratic PAC using ‘loud’ Walsh in ads against colleagues Dold, Biggert

A pro-Democratic group is using video cuts of the loud, politically incorrect tea partyer Joe Walsh to turn up the volume against Republicans in three key Chicago-area races.

Walshs bluster is the centerpiece of a new spot, which is part of a $2.4 million ad buy attacking the 8th District congressman from McHenry, and two other Republicans who are targeted by Democrats.

Dont blame banks! I am tired of hearing that crap! Walsh is seen imploring on a video of him talking to district residents.

In another clip hes shown saying: I want America to pay for my contraceptives. Youre kidding me. Go get a job!

Clearly viewing Illinois as fertile ground to win over congressional seats, the House Majority PAC, which aims to put Democrats back into the lead in Washington, disclosed Tuesday it had pumped $2.4 million into the three key Chicago-area races including U.S. House races in the 8th, 10th and 11th congressional districts.

One video titled Loud links Walsh to U.S. Reps. Bob Dold of Kennilworth and Judy Biggert of Hinsdale, both of whom are incumbents. While Walsh is a tea partyer through and through, both Dold and Biggert are far more moderate. Still, the ad which, according to the House Majority PAC, will run in heavy rotation for two weeks works to link the three as equally out of step but only plays video snippets of Walsh talking.

Margies lived all her life in blue-collar South Boston. Now 30 years since she was a teen, she recounts the fates of former Southies. Sheila Sheen odd. And Marty McDermotts doing time in Walpole prison. The Burke brothers? Who knows, but it cant have been good. And homeless Cookie died on the street just days ago.

Margies doing better? Dont kid yourself. She just lost her cashiers job at the Dollar Store. Her deadbeat husbands who knows where. Daughter Joyce has special needs, which is why Margie was often late to work, and the landladys already tapping her foot for the rent.

For two months around the time Joyce was conceived? Margie dated Mickey Dillon. He made it out of the hardscrabble, Old Harbor projects and became a fertility doctor. Now hes got a classy roost on Chestnut Hill. Margie and friends remember him as good people. Even though they havent seen each other in decades, and even though hes probably lace curtains the opposite of a gravel-mouthed Southie maybe he can her find work.

In an interview, David Lindsay-Abaire said he gets the idea for a play when two ideas collide. He hailed from Bostons south side, made (in)famous in The Departed and Good Will Hunting and also for its antibusing stance in the 70s. He left, got an education, but found that some part of him will always be a Southie.

In the beginning, his Good People feels odd to watch. Its about subjects you almost never see in a theater. First and foremost, Margie needs a job. She must make ends meet or she and Joyce could end up like Cookie. Shell even babysit, if it pays more than her babysitter charges while Margies working. For those who can afford theater tickets, heres how the who-knows-how-many-jobless struggle day to day. Today.

Good People is also about social class, practically a taboo topic on American stages. Lindsay-Abaire explores differences, but without sociological generalities or authorial intrusions. Instead, in Act Two, he creates a triangle: a have-not (Margie, at Chestnut Hill in search of a job any job); a have (Kate, Mikes Georgetown-educated, African-American wife); and Mike, a nouveau-have, convinced he made it out of Southie on his own, but unable to sever ties with the old neighborhood.

Stevie, the store manager, says Maggie makes everything so difficult. She pushes buttons, as if she wants to hurt others as much as shes been hurt. As Margie, a terrific Eva Kaminsky never skimps on her irksome qualities (if she went into the audience, Margie would interrogate patrons to expose pretense and best kept secrets). At the same time, Kaminsky shows that underneath and if she had some luck the plays title could refer to Margie.

She needs a helping hand. Mike, whom the play practically shreds, denies he ever had one. Silver-haired R. Ward Duffy bounces Mike between social classes, his past and present. The friction shatters his patrician veneer.

Denitsa Bliznakovas excellent costumes cut to the quick. When she goes to Chestnut Hill, Margies best outfit cant compete with Kates designer-tailored, lounge-about-the-house togs. As Kate, elegant Nedra McClyde exudes restraint and sophistication, then fires sharp jabs when the gloves come off.

Paul Mullins directs with a deft, almost invisible hand. When the Southies gather James McMenamin (Stevie), Carol Halsted (Jean), and especially Robin Pearson Rose (Dottie) Mullinss stagings are a politically incorrect, internecine hoot.
