Afternoon, my OCTOROON!!! 1/8th black, her mom admitted. Wonder how that will effect her popularity.

Fellow tennis players reacted negatively to her announcement, with almost no support or sympathy in general for Sharapova. John McEnroe and Pat Cash said they found it hard to believe her. Jennifer Capriati posted on Twitter that she should be stripped of her 35 professional titles. Chris Evert expressed her surprise at the lack of support in tennis for Sharapova, noting that she "[had] always isolated herself from the rest of the tennis world, from the players". Serena Williams expressed surprise at Sharapova’s announcement and asked tennis officials not to extend any special treatment towards her. Rafael Nadal and Andy Murray said that Sharapova deserved to be punished on the basis that she had failed to take notice that meldonium had become a prohibited substance, Murray adding that "Taking a drug you don't necessarily need because it's legal is wrong".[185] Roger Federer urged the tennis federation to conduct more anti-doping tests in the wake of Sharapova's drug test case. Novak Djokovic said that he felt sorry for her, but that she must still be ready for punishment. Victoria Azarenka and Dominika Cibulkova were far less supportive, with Cibulkova adding that she didn't feel sorry at all for Sharapova and didn't miss having her on the tour, describing her as "a totally unlikeable person; arrogant, conceited, and cold". Following the announcement, as a result of the failed drug test personal sponsors Nike andTAG Heuer suspended their relationships with Sharapova, while Porsche postponed promotional work. The United Nations Development Programme suspended Sharapova from her role as a goodwill ambassador on March 16, while expressing thanks for her support of their work over the previous nine years. SharaROIDA!!! Caroline Wozniaki is good friends with Serena, and all of the other girls on the tour respect her. Maria has been taking this PED for 10 YEARS!!!

I'm sure somebody already did it, buy would somebody post the lineup along with the segments the models were in? Thanx in advance.

I'm sure somebody already posted it, but cab somebody repost the lineup for each segment on chronological order? I need it to critique every girl so I can give my final analysis on the show.

I might go into more detail after I watch it again, but this what I took from last night show: it was ok, not that bad, not that good. They didn't do the slow motion thing, and TGEY kept the celebrity shots minimal at best. I guess Taylor Swift is o.k., but to have her BACK TO BACK?! Adriana Grande did good, and let's face it, it worked for the pink section. Segments pretty much the same thing. Both Adriana and Alessandra are at the twilight if their careers as runway models, so I totally got that, and understood why they came out together with their fantasy bras on. Other were just basic. Maybe one day they can give us some background on the new and second year girls. I believe Lais was listed in the opening credits. So, why do TGEY BEVER INTERVIEW HER?! On to the girls: I was PRESENTLY SURPRISED by Karlie Kloss this year. She looked really good as a blonde. Her body looked better too than I remember in years past. Jourdan Dunn is another girl who caught my eye. Her highlights really helped her stand out. Elsa Hosk stood out again in the Pink section. That is pretty much her segment. Also, I'm glad they didn't put ALL the newcomers there. Most were, it's kinda like boot camp or something, but they mixed it in some.all the veterans like Doutzen,Izabel, Isabeli, Lily, Lima, Ale, etc. did their thing. I think Joan was good. Shania, too. As far as the rookies go, I wished Sharipova would have had more than one segment. Showed real promise. The other ones were Ok. Like I said I need to watch it again.

I'll go into detail later, now I'll just do a rough draft. Actually the music wasn't as bad as I thought. Still, the opening section threw me off. I mean, the outfits fit the British Invasion theme perfectly, especially the one worn by Lily D., Cara and new girl Kasia, but would it hurt to have a English band play, or at least use British MUSIC?! Instead they use a band from Chicago and a girl from Texas. WTF?! Lot of cut and paste this year. Birds of Paradise was actually the one the 2nd theme, then Shipwrecked, followed by Pink Network, then Silver Parisian Nights. Only Britsh Invasion and Snow Angels were in the places they were supposed to be in for the show. Anybody notice how Candice, Behati, Lily A, and Karlie went BACK TO BACK, while Ale and Lais were in section 3 AND 4?Guess the did that because, those are the girls they see as most important to their brand. Ale is a long time veteran, Candice was the 'IT' girl for VS last year, did a whole segment on her. Behati being engaged to Adam Levine doesn't hurt. LIly A and Karlie have been Angels for a while now. They did that whole segment on Lais and how she BROKE HER FOOT last year, and therefore was not in the show. While we are on features, the inbetween stuff was pretty much the same as it is every year. However, it was cool that they interviewed some of the newer girls like Barbara, Cara, and new girl Sara Sampaio for the PINK NETWORK SECTION. The top angels are always goona be featured, but most show in the past we only heard from them. They are overexposed anyway. What do we NOT KNOW ABOUT THEM?! Also, was it just coincidence, or did they plan to put all the BLACK GIRLS in the Silver Parisian Nights section?! I'm Black myself. Do we have any special connection to THAT PARTICULAR CITY?! Respond here or my personal profile if you know. Josephine Skriver should have a feature on her is she continues to be part of the VSFS. Sure, she's just a Pink girl, but she his an interesting story. She is a child of a LESBIAN MOTHER & GAY FATHER. Has a brother, too, and they share the same biological parents. Didn't say they were test tube kids, so my best guess is that their parents had sex just for the case of having kids to be parents, too. VS was getting flak for not having a trandsgender model(THANK YOU GOD!!!), so maybe they can show they are with the modern times by doing a feature on her. Hoping they were gonna focus on Elsa more. She has a GREAT ASS!!! Hopefully they were move her out of the Pink Section so we can see more of her. Problem is it probably won't happen. She seems to be THE GIRL of that particular section. The music for Birds of Paradise did fit. Pink was whatever. Not to crazy about those Neon Fire girls. Guess they ran out of options since they already used Katy Perry, Nicki Manaj, and Justin Bieber. Like I said, a rough draft.

Go to http://vsholic.com/videos/victorias-secret-fashion-show-video-2013/ They have a 720 and a 1080 both HDTV quality via torrent.

The outfits look decent enough. Save for the shipwreck, all the themes seem to match. Alled a LOT of new girls this year. What is it like 12, 13 of them? As expected, most of the first timers are featured in the Pink Section. I don't know if they will will do a segment for a newcomer, but if the they do, it would be on Cindy Bruna. She was featured in two major sections, walking with the long time, well established models. Izabel Goulart still looks good, and she had the right amount of animation on the runway, didn't over do it. Unfortunately, Isabeli Fontana was the odd girl out this year. And what the hell is up with the MUSIC?! I get Taylor Swift. She has some pop tunes, tall enough to be a model herself, and her style of music would fit with the Pink Section. But FALL OUT BOY?! Really?! They sucked hard. The only two songs I liked from them was "Dance Dance", and "American Suiteharts", and the latter makes me cringe. Who complains about being on tour and banging GROUPIES EVERY NIGHT?! The rappers brag about it. I never heard of Neon Jungle or a Great Big World, but based on what I have heard, I won't be going to the record to buy them or iTunes to download them. It the nightmare of 2009 gonna rear it's UGLY HEAD?! If they did what they usually do and have not made the show all about searching for the newest model, might have been a good show, their best since 2005. It looks like the music is gonna doom this one.

I'm not surprised some people didn't like the ending. However, what show has a PERFECT ENDING?! "Six Feet Under" was probably the only show that came the closest, since it showed how all the main characters' lives turned out, and even then there were some unanswered questions. Here are my some of my thoughts' about the ending of "Dexter": Even though Debra's death was not as dramatic as some people thought it should have been, I think they summed it up nice with the final flashback they had when Harrison was born, and when they had that heart to heart about how he made her always feel safe. Anybody who was a fan of the series knew the were always co-dependent on each other, that neither could survive in the read world without each other, and Dexter realized that when she died. Another thing is that when he is on the boat and says "I destroy everything I love", maybe they could have added flashbacks of his dad Harry, Rita, and Debra. That really what have drove the point home. The epilogue was whatever, kinda creepy. Just wanted to show who Dexter wound up, alone and totally detached from the rest of the world. Even though I would have been fine with him dying from the hurricane, I thought the epilogue was fitting, though very unrealistic. I mean, how the hell did he surivive that STORM?! P.S. Sorry for posting the possible spoilers, but I do not see that option to hide it on the toolbar. If you wanna explain how to, send it to my profile.

Exactly. Pretty much to sum it up, Dexter was one hell of a series throught its 8 year run, and it ended with one hell of a SERIES FINALE!!! Debra was shot by the son of Dr. Vogel aka the Brian Surgeon. We didn't know how bad it was, so Dexter had to deal with that, as long as Debra's former boss was looking for Hannah, while he was trying to get her, himself and Harrison out fo the country. Dexter got the call about Debra, which led him to go to the hospital to be by her side. He blamed himself, and said so to Deb, but she refused to blame him, and it seems like she is going to be ok. When Harrison runs up to him in the hospital, he tells him how he was born there, and we see a flashback of him and Deb when Harrison was born. However he has a confrontation with Deb's former boss, with Dex telling him to stay away form him. He replys by telling Dexter not to go down with Hannah. The Brain Surgeon tries to finish off Debra, including cutting a man's tongue out who stiched him up. He found her room, Dexter and the cops were there to catch him. However, Deb's situation has taken a turn for the worst. Because of a blood clot that formed during surgery, she lost a lot of oxygen to her brain, and she was so damaged that she was gonna be pretty much a vegetable for the rest of her life. Dex has a another flashback to when they had a heart to heart about when Harrison was born in the hospital and how he was gonna be a great father to Harrison because he was such a great big brother to her. One such story was "Remember The Monsters?" which was the title of the episode. She was saying she saw monsters when the lights were out, and she couldn't sleep. However, Dexter explained that they were just shadows,and to make her feel safe, he even slept on the floor in her room one time. In midst of all of this, there is a bad hurricane in the Miami area, so they are exvacuating everybody. Dex and Hannah say they can catch a flight from Jacksonville. Hannah gets on the bus to Jacksonville, but Deb's former boss tracks her down and is on the bus. He says that he is gonna turn her in, collect his bounty, and turn Harrison over to Child Protective Services. However, Hannah, being the master excape artist that she is, injects him with something to knock him out so she and Harrison can make their excape and flight. Dexter on the other hand, is gonna tie up some loose ends. After Batista and Quinn interrogate the Brain Surgeon and is locked in a cell, Dexter says he gonna test his hands for GSR, or gunshot residue. While there are cameras, there are no sounds. Dexter tells him that he is gonna kill him with a pen, he puts on the table. The Surgeon grabs the pen first and stabs Dexter in the shoulder, but then Dexter gets control of the pen and stabs him in the neck, killing him. Since Dexter was stabbed first, looks like a clear case of self defense. Dex leaves, but instead of joining Hannah and Harrison in Jacksonville, he instead heads to his boat. He realizes he can not leave his sister they was she is, so he goes to the hospitalm disconnects all the stuff that is keeping her alive so she dies. After that, while the staff is distracted because of all the people coming in from the storm, he wraps Deb in a sheet, puts her on the boat, and buries her at sea. He calls Hannah, wants to speak to Harrison, and tells him that he loves him, and needs him to remember that tell they see each other again. After that, he is overcome with emotion and says to himself and the audience "I destroy everything I love, but I can't let that happen to Hannah and Harrison. I have to protect them. From ME. After that, he heads off, supposedly towards the storm. After the storm has passed, they find the wreckage from his boat, and both his collegues from Miami Metro and Hannah get the news, believing he died in the storm. Then it goes to a scene at a logging factory, like somewhere in Canada or Alaska. Then we see Dexter walking, looking like he works there, having a full beard. He goes into a cabin located in the premises, takes off his jacket, sits down at a table, looks at the camera, and then fade to black. All in all, it was a great series, it had a great run, and this last season was definitely one of the best. The series finale was fitting as well. Such as a series like this, you couldn't have a happy ending, or even a bittersweet one. Michael C. Hall, Jennifer Carpenter, David Yayas and countless actors made this series so great, and I hope to see them on other shows in the future.

I started this thread, and it's definitely a show that is worth watching. Thing is, you are a little late to the party. "Dexter" is on it's 8th and final season, so I have no idea how you would catch up on all of that. Also, many of the seasons are interlocked, and there is a ongoing storyline when it comes to the main character and the characters he's closest with, so you would have to see every season to catch up with the current season. Maybe it's best you buy the DVD's so you can watch at your own pace, though that would be pretty expensive considering the show's run.

It was on the History Channel when it aired here, beginning of March. Since it' on the History Channel, I'm guessing most of it is based on fact and some of the characters are based on people who did exist. However, since the real Vikings didn't have a written language, most of it is based on what other people wrote about them, mostly the people they were raided by. I did recognize two of the actors, Jessalyn Gilsig used to be on "Boston Public", and Donal Logue, who used to be on some MTV commercials back in the day, and is currently starring on the new season of "Copper" right now. Besides the history aspect, it's pretty interesting that some of the women are as hardcore as the men. They even participate on the raids and the invasions that Ragnar leads. I hope the poster of this topic got the "hero" thing about Ragnar from another website. It's pretty clear this guy was NO HERO. Him and his people mostly got by by stealing, raiding, and killing other people. That monk that he captured and brought back with him is pretty much their slave. The nicest thing they did for him so far was asking him if wanted to participate in a threesome, which he refused. Still, I'm interested to see where the story goes, and rather Ragnar and his people eventually become more civilized.

That was SHOCKING!!! :shock: I knew Debra was off her rocker, and though she seems to be getting a little better because of the mutual attraction between her and her boss, I didn't see the attempted MURDER-SUICIDE thing coming. However, from the videos Vogel was showing her, know she knows that is the reason why her father killed himself, so she decided to kill him and her. A bystander at the creek saw the whole thing, and rescued Debra from the car. Dexter, was still in the car, but unconscious and the car was sinking into the creek. He would have drowned for sure, but Debra did a roundabout and SAVED HIS LIFE!!! That relationship is gonna get super awkward now.

My mother is 1/2 black and 1/2 German. My dad is Black, English, Cherokee, and possibly some Irish. I can't exactly figure out the percentages per se, but I believe my great-grandfather on my dad's side was white. Couple that with my Grandmother on my mom's side that would make me a quarter German and 1/8th English/Irish.

2 episodes in, and so far, SO GOOOOD!!! Debra is totally :lost: . She left Miami Metro, and is now a bounty hunter. However, she is on many prescription pills and recreational drugs, and was even sleeping with her target. Dexter wants to still have that brother-sister relationship with her, but she blames him for what she has become and hates him for it. While the back and forth with all that, he winds up killing her target after finding out that he was gonna meet up with a hit man. The hit man eventually got his. Debra found out where the jewels were, and the guy followed and beat her ass for it. He could have killed her, but he said "You're lucky I only kill people that I'm paid to". However, he winds up dead. Dexter took some evidence from the crime scene tested the blood, and found out that the killer was DEBRA. So now she killed again, and doesn't look she is gonna get off her self-destructive path anytime soon. However, Dexter being the protector of her as he is, covers up her tracks. Sgt. Batista, who looks liked he was burned out last season, decided to stay a cop because of LaGuerta's death. Joey Quinn is dating Batista's sister. They try to keep it a secret, but he already knows. However, instead of being mad, he wants Quinn to step up his game and become a Sargent as well. Thing is, Quinn is from Boston, so he thinks the pressure to step up his game is a CUBANO THING!!! His getting all racist and stuff will probably end his relationship with the sister. Plus, it looks like he never got over Debra. Now to the most interesting part. This new girl Vogel, who is some kind of psychotherapist who is brought in to help in the capture of some some type of serial killer who cuts open the heads of his victims and removes part of the brain, makes Dexter nervous. However, not does she who and what Dexter is, she also know Dex's father, and encouraged him to teach Dexter THE CODE!!! :shock: Not only does she believe that psychopaths can be a gift to mankind, she sees Dexter as the perfect psychopath because he kills bad people, therefore making the world a better place. She also believes that this new serial killer is one of her former patients, and she wants him to find out who it is, and then do what he does. Another season that has me on the edge of my seat.

Damn, isn't this just BITTERSWEET?! It's sweet because Dexter is back. (Y) However, it is bitter because its the LAST SEASON!!! It did have a good run, and the the trailer looks sweet. Obviously Debra is all FUCKED UP!!! She killed LaGuerta to protect Dexter, blames her for making her a killer, and is taking prescription drugs and sleeping with numerous men to cope. Dexter also blames himself for the way Debra is, and although he tries to keep their relationship intact, she wants nothing to do with him. There is this one scene when Dex sees all the drugs she is taking and he says "I've destroyed my sister". I know this is probably gonna be one hell of a last season to this epic show, and my mouth is just for the season to start.

What do u mean??

A lot of people think Zooey DeChanel is hot, right? Hey, she is popular enough to have her own page on this website. I agree she is of above the average attractive, she is not like drop dead gourgeous. Actually, I like her sister, Emily(the lead actress on "Bones") better. Here is more who make my list: -Magdelena Frackowiak -Barbara Fialho Of course Kylie Kross nothing about her screams "Victoria's Secret model" -Vanessa Hudgens -Tara Reid. I don't like her eyes -Eva Longoria. I saw the girl without the makeup. VERY AVERAGE. I get everybody looks better with makeup, but natural beauty does play a factor. Heidi Klum, Jessica Alba, and Adriana have that. Norah Jones, too. - Kirsten Stewart. She has the some expression on her face all the time, which is emotionless.

Ohh, so its likes that, huh? Nobody mentioned the "Tuskegee Airmen" or 'Red Tails'. Perhaps my people's involvment in WWII is not considered as important enough. 'The Thin Red Line' is by far my favorite WWII film.

Season Finale was EPIC!!! :shock: Well, pretty much the whole season was epic. Debra was shocked to find what her Dexter did in his spare time. She struggled with it, but eventually saw what he was doing was not a bad thing accepted what he did. She even wanted to to take care of Hanna. However, Dexter fell in love with her. She was like him in so many ways, and accepted Dexter for all he was, the good and the bad. He was so infactuated with her that he couldn't kill her. That really messed up Debra. When Dex told her that he loved her, she was devastated, and broke down and told her that she was in love with him, and was gonna tell him the night before she saw him kill Travis Marshall. Dexter was shocked, and knew he have that type of relationship with her. However, he got why she might feel that way towards him, and they talked it out and moved on. Lyla, you were almost spot on. Hannah almost winded up a victim of Isaak Sirko. He tried to have Dexter killed, and the other Mobsters were trying to have Issak killed. Eventually Dexter and Isaak came to a understanding, and used Hannah as a pawn so Dex will help him out. Thing was, he could have let the Mobsters take care of Isaak before Hannah got involved, but he cut that guys throat. Go figure. Maybe at the time, he wanted Isaak for himself. The guy who ran that strip club eventually got Isaak, but not before Dex and Isaak got the other mob assassins out the way, found out that other mobster that Dexter killed was Isaak's lover, and him telling Dexter that he should allow himself to love before he answered Isaak wishes by dropping him in the ocean where he disposed of his lover. Back to Dex, Hannah, and Debra. We found out that Hannah was a one-time boyfriend of a serial killer, and even participated in his killings, though at the time it could have been out of fear. However, she was very good at defending what she had. poisoning people that were in her way, and practically untraceable. Her relationship with Dexter was interesting. She even got him to see himself in a new light, that he doesn't have a "Dark Passenger", more to the fact is that just who he is, and he's good at hiding it from other people. And even though Dexter wouldn't kill Hannah, that wasn't gonna stop Debra. She was going hard after Hannah, interviewing people that she knew, the author that was doing a book on her; etc. Eventually, Hannah took care of that author as well. He might have been a killer himself, but that was put to rest when he died in Dexter's apartment. Ironically, she saved Hannah's life when she found her badly injured by that guy who was holding her captive, who she killed in self-defense. However, she poisoned one too many, trying to kill Debra. Deb got in a car accident, but she survived. Dex didn't wanna believe that Hannah would do that, but he eventually found out that she did. Knowing that he would do anything to protect his sister, he gave the evidence to Miami police, and they arrested her on attempted murder. She eventually escaped from custody, and left a plant at Dexter's doorstep, maybe to let him know that she escaped. I guess she gonna take that trip to Argentina now. She had a good run on the show. Maybe it was too late for her to get a Golden Globe nomination, but maybe next year, and she will probably get a Emmy nomination. Not really interested, but I'll mention it anyway. Quinn is in all and all a DIRTY COP. I mean, we knew it all before, but we didn't know he went this far. Sure, maybe he was doing right by the stripper, and killing that mobster wasn't necessarily a bad thing, but he dealed with that guy before. He gave him cash and drugs in the past, and Quinn, in turn, would look the other way. It took that mobster who was involved with Isaak killing Mike Anderson for him to get serious. Now, he is no longer with the stripper, and it looks like he might get lucky with Bautista's sister. Sargent Bautista, on the other hand, does seemed burned out by the job. He brought a small restaurant and is moving on to the next chapter in his life. Doubt we will be seeing much of him in the future. Now on the the finale. All season, while Debra was going after Hannah, Captian LaGuerta was chasing after Dexter. She never believed that her partner, and and seems one time lover, Sargent James Doakes, was the Bay Harbor Butcher. Ever since she found a blood slide where Travis Marshall was killed, she believed that the Bay Harbor Butcher was out there. Despite Debra trying to keep her brother's secret from getting out, and Dexter planting evidence that would make her believe that Doakes was the right guy, Maria didn't give up. She got some documents from her former boss Matthews. Dexter's name came up on many of those documents, and she remembered that Doakes had a problem with Dexter. Our old pal showed up again in this season's finale, which detailed why through flashbacks of encounters he and Dex had, showed the reason why Doakes got the creeps from him in the first place. These flashbacks were seen through Dexter's eyes, and anybody who has watched the show from the beginning knows that Doakes found out Dexter was the Bay Harbor Butcher. LaGuera even as went as so far to make sure the person who ordered Dexter's mother murder get out on parole so she can catch him in the act. Dexter avoided it at the time, and the person got away. Still, later LaGuerta arrested Dexter, but didn't have any evidence on him, and it seemed to be a illegal arrest. Maria had another trick up her sleeve, though. She had surveillance footage of Debra at a gas station not far from the church which her and Dexter used to torch it. In the footage, it shows her putting the gas that they used into a external container. When Dexter learns about this, he is convinced that he must protect his sister once again, and LaGuerta has to die, even though she doesn't fit the code at all. So he sets up a plan in which he kills the man whos ordered his mother's murder, and Maria, making it look like the killed each other. Deb somehows finds out about it, calls him hoping to talk him out of it, and is on her way to the location. When Deb arrives on the scene, she finds Dexter in his kill suit, the guy who ordered his mother dead, and LaGuerta stiil alive and conscious, just a little drowsy form Dexter M-99ing her. Deb draws her gun. LaGuerta tells her to shoot Dexter. He tries to explain himself, but when LaGuerta tells Deb that she has to end this and that she is a good person, he agrees, drops his knife and says to his sister "Do what you gotta go". Deb makes her choice but instead wounding her brother and taking him in, or shooting her brother dead, she shoots LaGuerta dead, and then goes to hug her, crying. :shock: We then she her and Dex at the happy new year celebration at Batista's restaurant, Deb holding him by the arm. In closing, I think this year was one of the better seasons, especially after last year which was pretty much hit and miss for me. Dexter falls in love with somebody just as twisted as him, actually partners up with one of his enemies, and to reveal his true self to his sister. Deb on the other hand, hunts down Dexter's love interest, admits to her brother that she's in love with him, struggles with who's he in love as well as dealing with what her brother does, yet she came to understand it and accept it. The way the finale revealed that Dexter and Debra will protect one another AT ALL COSTS. (last emoticon for sibling love)
