Turkmenistan Pres Falls Off Horse After Winning Race

Turkmenistan state media silent on spill

BY: Washington Free Beacon Staff
May 1, 2013 4:19 pm
The President of Turkmenistan Gurbanguly Berdymukhamedov took a rather embarrassing fall off his horse Berkarar (“The Powerful”) just after winning an annual horse race in Ashgabat last Sunday.
State media in the former Soviet satellite state have been conspicuously silent on the fall, Agence France-Presse reports:

Turkmenistan’s equestrian-mad President Gurbanguly Berdymukhamedov suffered a spectacular fall from his horse after a race, according to Internet videos, but state media in the isolated ex-Soviet state maintained a rigid silence on the incident.
[...]
Government newspaper Neutral Turkmenistan devoted four pages to his victory, with six giant pictures of the president in national costume.
But there was no mention of the president’s potentially serious mishap in the press or on television. The race was shown on state television, but the footage cuts abruptly just after the finish.

In conjunction with state media ignoring President Berdymukhamedov’s fall, Turkmen government officials have been scrambling to confiscate all footage of the mishap:

[...] News websites close to the exiled Turkmen opposition said the incident had caused huge concern in Ashgabat, with officials scrambling to prevent more footage leaving the country.
The Gundogar news site said that officials at Ashgabat’s international airport had been making intensive checks of passengers leaving the country in search of phones, tablets and cameras of footage of the incident.
It quoted sources at the interior ministry as saying several dozen people have already been arrested on suspicion of trying to smuggle out footage.

The humiliating episode was broadcasted prominently on Russian state television.
President Berdymukhamedov appoints all editors in Turkmen media and access to independent news websites is disallowed.
Turkmenistan finished “runner up” in the Committee to Protect Journalists 2012 Top 10 Most Censored Countries ranking.

This has only been 102 years ago...Amazing!!!

 

Show this to your friends, children and/or grandchildren!

The year is 1910, over one hundred years ago. What a difference a century makes!

Here are some statistics for the Year 1910:

***********************************

The average life expectancy for men was 47 years.

Fuel for this car was sold in drug stores only.

Only 14 per cent of the homes had a bathtub.

Only 8 per cent of the homes had a telephone.

There were only 8,000 cars and only 144 miles of paved roads.

The maximum speed limit in most cities was 10 mph.

The tallest structure in the world was the Eiffel Tower!

The average US wage in 1910 was 22 cents per hour.

The average US worker made between $200 and $400 per year.

A competent accountant could expect to earn $2000 per year, a dentist $2,500 per year, a veterinarian between $1,500 and $4,000 per year, and a mechanical engineer about $5,000 per year.

More than 95 per cent of all births took place at HOME.

Ninety per cent of all Doctors had NO COLLEGE EDUCATION!

Instead, they attended so-called medical schools, many of which were condemned in the press AND the government as 'substandard.'

Sugar cost four cents a pound.

Eggs were fourteen cents a dozen.

Coffee was fifteen cents a pound.

Most women only washed their hair once a month, and used Borax or egg yolks for shampoo.

There was no such thing as under arm deodorant or tooth paste.

Canada passed a law that prohibited poor people from entering into their country for any reason.

The five leading causes of death were:

1. Pneumonia and influenza

2, Tuberculosis

3. Diarrhoea

4. Heart disease

5. Stroke

The American flag had 45 stars.

The population of Las Vegas Nevada was only 30!

Crossword puzzles, canned beer, and iced tea hadn't been invented yet

There was no Mother's Day or Father's Day.

Two out of every 10 adults couldn't read or write and only 6 per cent of all Americans had graduated from high school.

Eighteen per cent of households had at least one full-time servant or domestic help.

There were about 230 reported murders in the ENTIRE U.S.A.! 

I am now going to forward this to someone else without typing it myself.

From there, it will be sent to others all over the WORLD...all in a matter of seconds!Try to imagine what it may be like in another 100 years.

Man Without Enemies - and the truth will make you free

Ed Note:  God don't like clappin' in church.

Man Without Enemies

 

  A good goal for all of us to aim for

 

Ya gotta love this guy!!! Meet Walter Barnes - a golfer.  All of us should live so long as to be this kind of old man! Toward the end of the Sunday service, the Minister asked, "How many of you have forgiven your enemies?" 80% held up their hands. The Minister then repeated his question. All responded this time, except one man, Walter Barnes, who attended church only when the weather was bad. "Mr. Barnes, it's obviously not a good morning for golf. It's good to see you here today. Are you not willing to forgive your enemies?" "I don't have any," he replied gruffly. "Mr. Barnes, that is very unusual. How old are you?" "Ninety-eight," he replied. The congregation stood up and clapped their hands. "Oh, Mr. Barnes, would you please come down in front and tell us all how a person can live ninety-eight years and not have an enemy in the world?" The old golfer tottered down the aisle, stopped in front of the pulpit, turned around, faced the congregation, and said simply, "I outlived all them assholes", and he calmly returned to his seat.

Don't mess with seasoned citizens

Sue Baldwin- O'Dea posted in 912 Super Seniors Sue Baldwin- O'Dea 7:23am May 1 Don't mess with Senior Citizens Subject: What goes up a hill with three legs A lawyer and a senior citizen are sitting next to each other on a long flight. The lawyer is thinking that seniors are so dumb that he could get one over on them easily. So, the lawyer asks if the senior would like to play a fun game. The senior is tired and just wants to take a nap, so he politely declines and tries to catch a few winks. The lawyer persists, saying that the game is a lot of fun.... "I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me only $5.00. Then you ask me one, and if I don't know the answer, I will pay you $500.00," he says. This catches the senior's attention and, to keep the lawyer quiet, he agrees to play the game. The lawyer asks the first question. "What's the distance from the Earth to the Moon?" The senior doesn't say a word, but reaches into his pocket, pulls out a five-dollar bill, and hands it to the lawyer. Now, it's the senior's turn. He asks the lawyer, "What goes up a hill with three legs, and comes down with four?" The lawyer uses his laptop to search all references he can find on the Net. He sends E-mails to all the smart friends he knows; all to no avail. After an hour of searching, he finally gives up. He wakes the senior and hands him $500.00. The senior pockets the $500.00 and goes right back to sleep. The lawyer is going nuts not knowing the answer. He wakes the senior up and asks, "Well, so what goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?" The senior reaches into his pocket, hands the lawyer $5.00, and goes back to sleep. You know you're going to send this one on. Don't mess with seniors!

Dont'cha just love Texas?

You Gotta Love Texas.

 

The City of Dallas, Texas passed an ordinance stating that if a driver is pulled over by law enforcement and is not able to provide proof of Insurance, the car is towed.

 To retrieve the car after being impounded, they must show proof of insurance to have the car released. This has made it easy for the City of Dallas to remove uninsured cars.

 Shortly after the "No Insurance" ordinance was passed, the Dallas impound lots began to fill up and were full after only nine days. Over 80 % of the impounded cars were driven by illegals.

 Now, not only must they provide proof of insurance to have their car released, they have to pay for the cost of the tow, a $350 fine, and $20 for every day their car is kept in the lot.

 Guess what? Accident rates have gone down 47% and. Dallas ' solution gets uninsured drivers off the road WITHOUT making them show proof of nationality.

 I wonder how the Justice Department will get around this one. (failure to provide due process?)

 Just brings tears to your eyes doesn't it?

 GO Dallas!

New Law Allows Dallas Police To Tow and Impound Uninsured Cars-Truth!

Summary of the eRumor:  This is a forwarded email that says the city of Dallas, Texas has passed a law that allows the city to tow and impound vehicles that are pulled over for a routine traffic stop if the drivers can not provide proof of automobile insurance.

The Truth:  The law is real but not that new.   The City of Dallas, in the Lone Star State, has been towing and impounding vehicles since January 1, 2009 according to their City Hall Web Site. Ordinance 27189 was passed by the Dallas City Council on May 28, 2008 in "response to the large number of people driving in the City of Dallas without the proper state required auto insurance."  After January 1, 2009 the law granted  authority to the police officers to tow and impound vehicles that they stop for any alleged violation of city or state law if the owner or operator of the vehicle failed to provide evidence of financial responsibility as required by the Texas Transportation Code.
