Joe Igbokwe: Only The Just Can Be Vindicated By History By Obi Nwakanma - Duration: 22:03.
Joe Igbokwe: Only The Just Can Be Vindicated By History By Obi Nwakanma
Joe Igbokwe is an official bullhorn for Mr Ahmed Bola Tinubu, whom he calls "my leader" and the Lagos APC, which apparently makes him partisan to any discussion concerning the Igbo in Nigeria today.
Basically, he has taken his stance, and it is frequently a stance in opposition to a general Igbo position.
There is nothing fundamentally wrong with this, because the Igbo, by their republican ethos, accept that all men must exercise their conscience, have their opinions, and be allowed to dissent with the general views.
The Igbo have a saying, "let even the mad man have his say in the gathering of the kin and not stop him, for who knows, the spirits may relay truth through him." Many of us have no problem with Joe Igbokwe taking an alternative stance, given that we know what we know as Ndi Igbo, that each man carries his own bag of truth: "truth is like the goatskin bag, and each man carries his own." That would be both a saying and a parable at the same time, as the Igbo sages themselves are bound to say.
However, what irks many Igbo readers of Joe Igbokwe over the long period is what might be his Freudian impulsion to "kill his father" in order to establish his on being. .
The utter disregard for the Igbo condition, and his projection of an entire Igbo entity as antinomy. Simply because it does often threaten his own apparently quite lucrative and beneficial affiliation, he opposes every Igbo action and opinion.
The tendency to dismiss Igbo concerns as a product of some kind of Igbo national paranoia and overreach is disturbing because it is also false.
Joe Igbokwe frequently describes the Igbo as people who apparently are conditioned to hysteria and therefore their responses to the Nigerian national question have no basis in truth but only in their own overdetermined reality.
This is why I find Joe Igbokwe's essay in the Sahara Reporters very interesting. .
Now Joe is right in saying, and I'm glad he is heeding my own call in my "Orbit" column in the Sunday Vanguard, that the debate over the Igbo and the new Biafra question should not be left alone in the hands of Nnamdi Kanu and his followers.
I am glad that Joe Igbokwe is finally awakening to the reality that the great momentum achieved by Nnamdi Kanu and the new Biafra movement is not simply a flash-in-the-pan, but a growing reality, a movement, the result of a profound level of anger and alienation by a generation of young Igbo and in many instances, other Easterners, who have felt themselves discriminated against, and marginalized in a country that utterly disregards them.
I am finally glad that Joe Igbokwe has also finally been forced to acknowledge the facts of Igbo marginality which is what gives propulsion to the fiery anger of the new Biafrans.
In Igbokwe's words: "I agree 100% that Igbo have suffered systemic, organized, structured and official marginalization in Nigeria." This is the point of the secessionist movement.
But Joe Igbokwe also says "but let us go into constructive and civilized engagement to redress the imbalance." .
It has happened for far too long. Fifty years is enough for handwringing; fifty years of "systemic" marginalization has basically aborted an entire generation, and fifty years of "civilized and constructive engagement" has not yielded reprieve to the Igbo.
The Igbo have argued, negotiated, cried out, pleaded, tried to build bridges, made sacrifices and concessions for peace, have often yielded grounds to avoid conflict just to preserve this federation, and all that "constructive" effort has actually yielded nothing but continued marginality, discrimination, and insult to the Igbo.
Joe Igbokwe is a witness to the event in the SDP in 1992/3 when Dr.
Iyorchia Ayu, then senate president publicly insulted Odumegwu-Ojukwu at the SDP convention in Benin city when Ojukwu raised the issue of the Igbo representation in the party, over which Ojukwu left the SDP and backed Dawakin Torfa and Dr.
Sylvester Ugoh for the 1993 presidential elections. Yet Joe Igbokwe said nothing about that insult to Ojukwu or the Igbo. Joe Igbokwe was witness when Dr.
Sam Mbakwe, in his negotiations with MKO Abiola who promised to make an Igbo Secretary to his government, and Mbakwe quipped that the Igbo needed more than the guarantee of the SGF in an Abiola-led government, because the SGF was no more than the "President's tea boy.".
MKO Abiola in response declared that he did not need the Igbo or their votes and that he could do without them, to which Arthur Nzeribe made his famous declaration, "well, you cannot be president in Nigeria without the Igbo" and fought him in his uniquely Nzeribe-way.
What did Joe Igbokwe do? Nothing.
He insults Zik, he insults Ojukwu, he insults Mbakwe, he insults Achebe, and he insults everybody who has said, "Igbo eketere ole?" What is the share of the Igbo in this republic? Anyone who says, Igbo shall not stand by as mere witnesses to history, while others make and shape Nigerian history to Igbokwe has, how did he and his doppelganger, Ozodi Osuji put it?, a "selfish sense of superiority and paranoid grandiosity." These are his very words.
People who have a "selfish sense of superiority and paranoid grandiosity" do not cry about their marginalization. And the Igbo have cried, and cried, and cried.
As a matter of fact, Igbo cry has been for fairness and equity, not just for the Igbo, but for all marginalized people in Nigeria.
For crying out, Igbokwe also says the Igbo are not only "paranoid" they have a "persecution complex," a "marginalization complex" a "defeatist syndrome" and a "leadership complex." The last bit is even more intriguing to me: it accuses the Igbo of either wanting to lead, or worse exhibiting an impulsion to leadership all the time.
You hear in Joe Igbokwe's voice, the voice of the ventriloquist. He repeats what he has been programmed to say like a robot.
But in all that yo-yoing, he never ponders or reflects, on the contradictions of his own statement in agreeing that Igbo have been victims of "systemic marginalization." Joe Igbokwe accuses Nnamdi Kanu of "hate speech." .
Indeed, Nnamdi Kanu has exhibited the worst kind of instincts and does need to be taken to task over his extremist positions, and his use of needless incendiary rhetoric.
But to then say that the so-called Arewa youths are applying a "balance of terror" and learning "hate speech" from the Igbo, and that the Igbo leadership and community organizations are simply, therefore, to blame for their silence is not only ridiculous but is to be blind to the history that Joe Igbokwe summons as his witness: Joe never said a single thing when young Southerners, including young Igbo who had gone to do national service as Youth Corp members, were killed by mobs of the Northern youth in 2011 after Goodluck Jonathan won the presidential elections.
How about that for "ethnic bigotry" "primordial tendencies" and 'reckless abandon"? What did Joe Igbokwe say about those killings and the political riots, and the brazen subversion of Jonathan's presidency in the North right from its inception? What did Joe Igbokwe say when the Oba of Lagos threatened to drown his Igbo kinsmen in Lagos if they did not vote for Joe's APC in the 2015 elections? Did Joe not join in calling Igbo names, reminding them how they are merely "visitors" to Lagos? And about the "unacceptable …abuse and uncensored choice of words used against the person of the president" – meaning Buhari -what did Joe Igbokwe say when people were calling President Jonathan all sorts of unprintable names? Was the "President" in front of Jonathan's name any less in weight than the "President" in front of the name, "Buhari? Was it not Joe Igbokwe who first called his own president "clueless" and such other insulting names? What did Joe Igbokwe say when Buhari threatened to unleash mayhem in his now famous "the blood of baboons" sermons? Did Joe consider that the blood tide that was threatened was directed against his kinsmen in the North? This was long before Nnamdi Kanu began to deploy his own clearly deplorable hate speech.
Hate speech, in this case, begat hate speech, and it began with Joe Igbokwe and his cohorts, and it was directed, fully charged against President Goodluck Jonathan, who by all estimation has been the president that was most disrespected in office in a blizzard of obloquy unleashed on his person by Joe Igbokwe and the bullhorns of the APC of which he is a card-carrying partisan.
What the "young" Biafran agitators are doing is following exactly in the footsteps of the Joe Igbokwes of this world who invented political hate speech against President Goodluck Jonathan and his supporters.
It is thus quite clear, and it is not for nothing that Joe Igbokwe is now regarded as a "saboteur" in Igboland – and I did warn him about his terrible fate – the result of his own use of hate speech against his own people simply because he wishes to protect his own personal investments in Lagos. .
Joe has made his choices, and they are choices that places him in direct conflict with the Igbo, for whom he can no longer speak, and with whom he now has what we call a credibility deficit.
And there are quite a lot of things Joe Igbokwe clearly still does not know about Ndi Igbo: one, the Igbo "ji Ofo" – there is the ancient Igbo code of justice: as a people, the Igbo are guided by a fierce and unbendable will to justice.
The Igbo do not seek equity and fairness alone for themselves, they seek equality and fairness for all individual Nigerians as the primary condition of Nigerian citizenship.
They seek a great and prosperous country where no one would threaten to drown or kill the other without consequence; or where some jackass would "order" them out of a region where they have settled, or discriminate against them or anyone else for that matter on the grounds of their identity.
The Igbo stood solidly for Goodluck Jonathan, and they do not want to be persecuted for their political choices as has been the case in this APC government under Buhari which Joe Igbokwe fully supports.
This is exactly what Joe Igbokwe fails to comprehend. That he supports the persecution of his own people for personal political gains, and that is an abomination.
About Igbo assets in the North. It is only property, Joe, and real estate is not regenerative investment, it is only stock assets. .
It declines in value by attrition. If the Igbo, for any reasons, were to leave the North, the property value in the North will collapse according to the law of demand.
So, whatever assets the Igbo may be forced to leave behind, the loss will be momentarily felt, but those places where they left will be "ghost cities." It is not true that the Igbo can, should they be forced to leave, not be able to live "together" in the same political space or nation.
There is no greater fiction. The greatest momentum in Igbo life took place with the "ingathering" of 1966 – and that energy has never since been recreated or felt in the East.
There will be moments of tension, no doubt. There might even be excessive and at times deadly competition. But the Igbo is a conciliar culture built on negotiations and compromise, and they will thrive if they choose to go it alone.
They may even end up partnering with the Southern Cameroon secessionist movement to form a "union government" or better still, effect what we might call their own "Bakassi Purchase" – equivalent of the American "Louisiana Purchase" and there is nothing that is impossible.
Nonetheless, we must work with everyone interested in salvaging and preserving the Nigerian nation to help pull back from these edges.
About the Igbo language – Joe Igbokwe apparently does not know that the Igbo language is one of the official national languages of Equatorial Guinea, or that there are dialects of the Igbo language spoken in Central Africa.
He continues to dwell on the unreflective and unreconstructed fiction that has long been retailed about the Igbo by official Nigerian narrative that sees the Igbo more in terms of adversaries.
And finally, while a great Nigerian nation is valuable and desirable, and must be preserved, and might actually quite possibly be in the long run in the higher interest of the Igbo, but it should be a nation based on the guarantees of true equality and solidarity.
But it will not happen with the likes of Joe Igbokwe disparaging Ndi Igbo in general over their stance on their own experience of marginalization.
You must sit with Nnamdi Kanu whatever else you may think of him, and listen to him, bring him in with his group, and provide him conditions for rapprochement, and these without pre-condition.
It will also not be a Nigerian nation preserved on the back of the Igbo, based on a Carthaginian treaty and its, "peace of the graveyard," where the Igbo will continue to dwell inside a glass ceiling, or the condition that the late Dim Emeka Ojukwu called the situation of " Jonah in the belly of the beast," just so that the Joe Igbokwes of this world would have peace, the security of their own investments, and continue to enjoy the long, endless, pointless rumination also called, "civilized, constructive engagement." At some point, people do rise to say, "heck, No!" when they are no longer able to stomach their condition. This is what is going on with the young Biafrans. .
Once upon a time, people used to mock the Igbo and say that Igbo people could never agree to act with one voice.
Well, Nnamdi Kanu and his group have demonstrated what I have always known to be true, that there is a fundamental misinterpretation of the Igbo, by people like Joe Igbokwe who have for far too long lived inside his own head about the Igbo.
The Igbo act, and are perfectly capable of constructing a universal will, particularly when it comes to the matters of collective justice.
These are dangerous times, and truth be told, many of us who have crossed the threshold of fifty are not in charge of this movement or its impulsions.
The young Igbo have risen to confront us with our failures to act to prevent this moment. We can only move deftly to control the debate and reshape the enterprise and prevent what seems currently an inevitable confrontation.
This is the point that Joe Igbokwe must acknowledge, that he has been a witness to a history of injustice on the Igbo, and has chosen rather to be, not a witness of truth, but a self-righteous, self-interested dissenter, because injustice to the Igbo is not his primary concern.
His primary and reactionary quest is that the Igbo dare not rock his boat by speaking out against the pressure of the factors that are intent on destroying them.
Igbokwe wants Igbo silence and humility which by the way only needs three alphabets to become "humiliation." But as the novelist, Chukwuemeka Ike would say, "Our Children are coming" and they are coming with the ferocity of half a century of suppressed and unmitigated anger.
What must however be made clear to these young Biafrans – be they Ogoni, Kalabari, Ijo, Efik, or Igbo – for it is clear that there are great supporters of this movement among these groups too – is that the Nigerian project is a huge work in progress, and yes, Nigeria in which only the Igbo prosper will be as dangerous for them as the Nigeria which seeks to marginalize them. .
And Igbo interest and future can be secured in a Nigerian federation given certain conditions. We must give Nigeria a chance. We must help to shape it rather than abandon it.
We have the opportunity today to direct this fierce anger into a huge collaborative anger by arming the youth of the land with ideas, and make them see that their enemies are not the other dispossessed youth of the North or the South, so that they can build common grounds, and aim at creating a Nigeria of opportunities; that Nigeria which Zik promised the youth – the ones he called the "new Africans;" a Nigeria built on cooperative citizenship rather than adversarial citizenship.
What is good for the young people in the South must be good for the young people in the North, and none must be made to suffer disadvantage in order to prod-up the other.
We must make them understand that merit is crucial, but accommodation is as vital in the construction of one's strategic interest. But one must not be at the detriment of the other.
We must guide them towards dispensing with the sustained animosity that fails to see how religion, ethnicity, and class have combined to become the toxic mix that now tears at the very soul of this country.
There, is where I'm prepared to stand in my critique of Nnamdi Kanu. But we cannot blame the Biafran agitators because they agitate out of pure anger of felt dispossession.
And so, Joe Igbokwe may witness to history, but as that sagely philosopher of African and human freedom in the 20th century, Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe did once say at another crisis point, "history will vindicate the just." But only the just, Joe.
We need a just peace, not the perfect peace, but also not the peace of the graveyard purchased on the back of the long-oppressed who now say, "No, in Thunder!" because history too is their witness.

How Can Men Best Support their Wives after Pregnancy - Duration: 2:42.
(inspiring background music)
- First of all, don't think you know your partner, right?
Don't assume that you know everything
about her experience and how things are going.
Actually, start to have some curiosity
and with no attachment.
'Cause a lot of men I think think they
are doing a ton to support and provide, right?
They're trying to create a great lifestyle,
have a great house, provide things materially,
they show up, they're there maybe,
but they still don't necessarily know some
of the inner things going on.
And so I get to teach a workshop called How
to Stay Together When Baby Makes Three.
And one of the things I made couples do
in real life was, what, write down,
first of all, how is this going for you?
How is this whole parenting
and marriage thing going for you?
And listen, just listen.
With not feeling attacked, but curious.
How can we make this better?
What's missing, to actually ask the questions together
but without getting triggered.
'Cause a lot of times what happens
is you ask the question and then you hear the answer
and now you're defensive, right?
'Cause now it's like, well wait,
but I'm trying so hard to do all these things.
How can you not appreciate me
and look what I just did for you last week?
And now the woman is put onto the what's
the point of even sharing, right?
Now we're fighting, I don't want to fight.
- Yup.
(laughing)
- I don't feel like it.
Here's the thing.
We each in patterns of relationship develop expectations
of self, expectations of other,
and we have assumptions of self
and assumptions of the other.
I had one couple where he would come home
from work and he, I mean he would cook,
he cooked every single night and this has been going
on two and a half years right?
They had a baby, they had been dating
for I think four years, married
for two and a half.
Anyways, he said, "I hate cooking.
"I hate it, I can't stand it.
"I wish you did it sometimes."
And she was like, "What, I love it.
"I was letting you cook 'cause I thought you liked it."
- [Man] Oh wow.
- And so just, right?
And so he was trying to cook more when, this is it.
So they were living in this,
well I'm gonna support you 'cause I'm trying
to give you something that you want,
and he was resentful 'cause he didn't really want
it, he was doing it 'cause she thought she,
he thought he was being helpful to his partner.
So when you actually write down,
what are my expectations?
Well maybe you believe your partner has
the expectation that you are home every single day
at 5:00, and actually she is like,
it doesn't, that's not an important expectation.
Maybe she wishes that you were gone until 8:00
and that you guys had a babysitter
for four hours so that she could go out
and do something on her own.
Or she could meet you downtown for a drink,
or she could, you know,
we just have no idea what's really going
on for our partner sometimes, unless you ask.

Liverpool Transfer news - How Liverpool can afford to pay Naby Keita and Virgil van Dijk - Duration: 7:21.
Liverpool Transfer news - How Liverpool can afford to pay Naby Keita and Virgil van Dijk's asking price
Liverpool's summer targets Naby Keita and Virgil van Dijk are reportedly both available for an eye-watering £70 million each, but the Reds can still afford that.
9 million arrival of Mohamed Salah, and the incoming free transfer of Chelsea striker Dominic Solanke, Klopp has set his sights on the big-money pair.
Both Keita and Van Dijk are heavyweight targets for the Reds: players who are capable of taking Klopp's side up another level, as they prepare for another foray into European football.
But RB Leipzig and Southampton are believed to be seeking £70 million deals for their key men, which would ensure Liverpool almost double their current transfer record this summer.
There is certainly a debate as to whether the Reds should pay such significant fees for two players currently operating outside of Europe's elite, but the question of whether they can is moot.
Previous transfer windows under Fenway Sports Group have largely seen Liverpool look to flesh out their squad ranks—even last summer, when Klopp saw seven new faces arrive.
Only three of those could be considered key players in 2016/17—Joel Matip, Georginio Wijnaldum and Sadio Mane—with Alex Manninger, Loris Karius, Ragnar Klavan and Marko Grujic serving as cover.
In 2015/16, Brendan Rodgers also brought in seven players; the season before that saw eight arrive; the previous campaign introduced six new names on Merseyside.
Having already broken their transfer record to bring in Salah this summer, Klopp is primed to focus on quality over quantity for 2017/18.
The German's experience of the Champions League means he knows the need for a higher calibre of talent next term. There is certainly justification to bring in both Van Dijk and Keita, who meet that specification.
In line with this shift in emphasis, the pursuit of top-level signings will be aided by the sales of deadwood acquired in previous campaigns.
Liverpool are set to hold firm on their valuations of both Mamadou Sakho and Alberto Moreno, which stand at £30 million and £15 million respectively, while a host of other names are also set to depart.
The sale of Lazar Markovic is expected to generate at least £12 million, while peripheral midfielders Lucas Leiva and Kevin Stewart leaving could see a further injection of around £10 million.
There could also be a controversial exit in the form of Daniel Sturridge who, despite his clear quality, has struggled to hold down a regular role under Klopp due to regular fitness issues.
If Paris Saint-Germain or West Ham United firm up their interest in the 27-year-old, who still has two years left on his contract, the Reds can be expected to demand a significant fee given his pedigree.
These sales could certainly cover the signing of one of Keita or Van Dijk, as Klopp overhauls his squad.
There is also the case of Liverpool's heightened success last season to consider, with their rise in the Premier League last season prompting a surge in income.
The Reds finished fourth in the English top flight, securing their place in the Champions League play-offs in August.
And due to their challenge at the top end of the table, they were chosen for TV broadcast for 29 of their 38 games in the Premier League, which is a record for a single team in one season.
With the increase in TV income, their near-ubiquity on Sky Sports and BT Sport and an impressive finish, Liverpool earned a remarkable £148. 1 million for the 2016/17 season.
If this was allocated towards signings alone, it would cover the arrivals of one of Keita or Van Dijk as well as Salah and another widely reported summer target, Arsenal's Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
This is unlikely, but it certainly underlines the increased financial power Liverpool can impose.
Sakho, Moreno, Lucas, Stewart, Markovic and Sturridge aren't the only players who could leave Merseyside this summer, with a host of academy talents also tipped to leave.
Jon Flanagan, Connor Randall, Cameron Brannagan and Pedro Chirivella could all move on, and while fees for the young quartet could prove to be nominal, they could cover the signing of a left-back.
Liverpool have been linked with Hull City's Andrew Robertson, for example, and the Scotland international is unlikely to cost more than £10 million.
Signing Robertson, Solanke, Keita, Salah, Van Dijk and Oxlade-Chamberlain would, of course, also involve a major outlay in terms of wages, particularly for the latter quartet, but there is still scope to include this.
The redevelopment of Anfield's Main Stand last summer has brought an increase in matchday revenue to the tune of an estimated £20 million a year—and that is before a deal for naming rights is finalised.
This would amount to almost £400,000 per week, added to the shearing of high earners such as Sakho and Lucas, allowing the Reds to cover salaries for their high-calibre arrivals.
FSG remain eager to ensure Liverpool is a self-sustaining operation, but even as ambitions are heightened this summer, there should be no issue in spending a combined £140 million on Keita and Van Dijk.
In fact, doing so would give Klopp a better chance of leading the Reds to further success—and, naturally, financial prosperity.

5 REALLY WEIRD Services You Can Actually Buy in China - Duration: 5:54.
The world of commerce is a strange, strange place.
Enterprising people wanting to make a living and earn a buck or two can think of creative
ways to sell a product or service and China is no exception.
Being a quirky country, you would think that with a strict government people are restricted
from selling goods and services but that is not the case.
From live crabs that can be bought in vending machines to animal brains you can buy online,
China has one of the most colourful marketplaces in the streets or on the internet.
So in today's list we are counting down to the 5 weirdest services you can buy in
China whether it's online or in a physical store.
I'm telling you guys now, some of these are quite hilarious and creative!
Number Five: Robot Chef Service Chinese food is awesome.
Each dish is a one of a kind gastronomic experience.
No wonder that the cuisine has endured for thousands of years, but these days, China
has stepped it up a bit more and introduced robots into the equation.
Yes, robots!
Besides, everything seems to taste better when it is prepared by the skilful hands of
a cold, metallic automaton and it is a growing trend in the country.
In 2011, an inventor named Cui Runquan created a robot named "Chef Cui" that is programmed
to prepare shaved noodles, a popular food item in Chine where noodles are shaved by
hand from a block of dough and then boiled.
Selling for about $2000 apiece, the Chef Cui robots are now being mass produced and have
sold more than 3000 units.
A fast food chain in Shanghai, on the other hand, made the bold decision to use robots
as the chefs in the kitchen.
Obviously, the benefit to having these mechanized cooks is efficiency since a single robot can
wash pots and pans, combine the ingredients, cook, and plate the order in three minutes.
Impressive, right?
But if cooking robots isn't your cup of tea, then head on down to a place called the
Dalu Robot Restaurant and have your food served by robots.
Programmed like clockwork, the six server robots follow a rotation system that allows
them to efficiently serve the restaurant's twenty-one tables before returning to the
kitchen for the next wave of orders.
Number Four: Traffic Jam Stand-ins With a population of 1.3 billion people, it
would be a miracle if traffic runs as smooth as a well buttered pan.
China has one of the world's most notorious traffic jams that last for hours and even
weeks!
It's no joke that traffic jams of such a magnitude can cause serious blows to businesses
because of the delays it causes but, turning lemons into lemonade.
We have all heard of a service where people hire other people just to stand in line for
them at the movies for that midnight screening or wait in a queue for you for those concert
tickets that you have been waiting for since forever.
In China, they take this a step, in a weird almost practical way, further.
Several Chinese entrepreneurs had a big idea of creating a service where you can call someone
to stand-in for you in case you get stuck in a horrible traffic jam.
The service is quite simple.
When you are stuck in a potentially hopeless gridlock, all you have to do is call the service
and give them your location and information.
Two men on motorcycle will arrive shortly after placing the call.
The Traffic Jam Stand-in will sit in the car for you and drive it to wherever you need
your vehicle to be while you get to ride on the motorcycle and be driven to where you
have to be whether it's a meeting or a date!
For the meantime, the service is mostly offered around the region of Wuhan in Central China
where traffic is known to be one of the worst in the country.
Number Three: A Boyfriend or Girlfriend Well, technically you can't buy a boyfriend
or girlfriend but you can rent one for a day or for however long you want!
When it comes to being in a relationship or having one is a big deal in China that it
exerts a degree of pressure on young, singles especially during family gatherings where
questions on the subject get asked quite frequently.
This pressure has then become the springboard for a business idea where people can hire
someone to be his or her significant other in order to fend off unwanted snooping from
nosey relatives.
The service does not come cheap, however, as prices typically are at a minimum of 1000
RMB per day.
Not only that, the amount only covers the "rental" service.
A boyfriend or girlfriend will be at your side for that price but if you want to push
the illusion further, additional charges will be made for things like hugs, hand holding,
and the like.
Also, should the "renter" require the boyfriend or girlfriend to stay longer than
a day then he or she is responsible for accommodations, food, transportation, and any other things
that are necessary.
While there might be a degree of temptation to this service, sexual favors are not part
of the bargain.
Number Two: Hire a White Guy We kid you not.
In China, you can actually hire a white person.
Following the same vein as "Hire a Boyfriend or Girlfriend", renting a White person,
a real-live Caucasian, serves the market of businessmen more than those who are looking
for an arranged date to bring to your mom's birthday.
In China, it is generally believed that Western businesses and businessmen are successful
compared to any part of the globe and for a Chinese entrepreneur to be seen standing
next to a foreign "business partner" is a sign of status and success.
It's a little bit superficial but if it works for the system then the people behind
this is milking the cash cow quite comfortably.
With this service, Chinese businessmen, whether seasoned or fledglings, can hire an actor
to stand in as a business partner at whatever function that he is required to attend.
Most of the time, the actor is just asked to stand next to the one who hired him or
her and not say a word, creating the illusion that he does not speak a single word of Chinese
in a conspicuously Globalized world of business.
In fact, these actors come armed to the teeth with fake business cards, wearing sharp suits
that make them appear as big shots in their respective "industries".
Sometimes though, the actor will be asked to play a small role such as deliver a speech.
One actor named Jonathan Zatkin recalls an experience where he was paid to deliver a
speech at an opening of a local jewelry store and say "how wonderful it was to work with
the company for 10 years".
Zatkin also reveals the requirements of the job are quite straightforward: You have to
be White; you don't have to know Chinese or just speak unless you are asked; and you
have to look like you just got off a plane when you arrive at an event.
Number One: Virgin Tea Our top spot may not technically be a service
that anyone may take advantage of but it is something that a few entrepreneurs and large
scale tea plantations have benefitted from.
One of these plantations is the Jiuhua Tea Plantation in the Henan province who have
published a job posting looking for female virgins with C-cup breasts to "pick tea
by grabbing the leaves with their lips and dropping them in a basket nestled between
their breasts."
According to a plantation spokesperson, this requirement follows an ancient Chinese legend
about how tea leaves were delicately plucked and collected by the mouths of fairies.
With this supernatural method, the tea is believed to be infused with magical properties
such as the virility and purity of virgins.
Since fairies and pixies are hard to come by in a tight global economy, the Jiuhua Plantation
opted to hire female virgins, believing that it will yield the same results as their elfish
predecessors.
The job requirement is as equally colourful as the legend the plantation takes stock into:
the women are not allowed to tough the leaves or the basket with their hands for fear of
some kind of earthly contamination.
Also, on top of the rather specific C-cup requirement, women who are interested in applying
for the position should not have any kind of visible scarring, wounds, or skin conditions.
The job requirements and description could be seen as ludicrous by outsiders but what's
even more bizarre is that there actually are women who are willing to sell their services
for the plantation.

"NEYMAR WALL CHALLENGE" CAN YOU DO THIS ?! - Duration: 2:54.

Why Can't My Cat Roar? - Duration: 4:27.
I have a cat.
Her name is Cameo, she's adorable, and recently she peed inside of a potted plant.
But can you imagine how amazing it would be if she could roar… while peeing inside of
a potted plant?
She'd be like, "give me some treats" and then like ferocious roar... it would be
so cute!
But domestic cats can't roar.
Only four species in the cat family can: lions, tigers, leopards, and jaguars.
Here's the weird thing, though: zoologists are pretty sure
those four species of cats can't purr.
So even though my cat can't roar, the reason probably has a lot to do with the things in
her throat that let her purr.
Now, we still aren't - this is amazing - totally sure how cats purr.
There's no, like, "purr box" that we can locate in a cat, and no one's ever stuck
a purring cat in an MRI to find out exactly what's happening.
But we've known for a while that it probably involves the larynx, aka the voice box.
Back in 1834, a British zoologist named Richard Owen noticed that there was an anatomical
difference between the cat species that purred and the ones that roared: roaring cats had
a more flexible hyoid.
The hyoid is a structure that supports the tongue and larynx.
In humans, it's horseshoe-shaped.
It's basically the first bone under your chin in the front of your neck—although
you shouldn't be able to feel it from the outside, so maybe don't go squeezing up
around in there.
On the murder shows, it's how they know people called strangled when they got killed.
They're always like, "the hyoid is broken!
That's how we know that the murder was the squeezy neck kind."
In cats, the hyoid is more of a hook that hangs down and connects the back of the skull
to the front of the larynx and the base of the tongue.
In most species of cat, including the domestic cat, the hyoid bone is very … bony.
It's said to be completely ossified, meaning that it's fully hardened bone.
And all of the cats that have a completely ossified hyoid can purr, but don't roar.
The cats that do roar don't have a fully ossified hyoid, meaning that it hasn't fully
hardened into bone, so it's a lot more flexible.
The tissue is more like the ligaments that normally connect bones to each other.
Owen thought that flexibility was the key to roaring.
Roaring is a low, deep, resonant sound, so cats need long vocal folds to do it, just
like people with longer vocal folds have deeper voices.
And Owen figured a more flexible hyoid was what let a cat's vocal folds stretch enough
for them to roar.
For a long time, pretty much everyone agreed with this idea.
They also assumed that hardened, bony hyoids were the reason why all the species of cat
that couldn't roar could purr.
But there is one exception: the snow leopard.
Snow leopards don't have a fully hardened hyoid — they have the more flexible kind
that lions do.
But they can't roar.
And even though we've known about the snow leopard exception since at least 1916, scientists
didn't really question the hyoid idea until the late 1980s.
That was when researchers realized that there is another difference between cats that can
roar and cats that can't: roaring cats have thick pads of tissue on their vocal folds.
The pads make their vocal folds longer and heavier, which allows them to vibrate more
slowly and make a lower-pitched sound.
Only lions, tigers, leopards, and jaguars have these pads, with no exceptions —
not even snow leopards.
So roaring isn't entirely about the hyoid bone.
Sure, the extra flexibility might help, but they also need that extra tissue that our
domestic cat friends don't have.
These pads also help explain why cats that roar can't purr.
When cats purr, they vibrate their vocal folds about 26 times per second.
There seems to be some mechanism in their brains that controls the vibrations.
As they inhale and exhale, the vocal folds open and close,
which is what makes the purring sound.
It's like how you can make that motorboat sound by vibrating your lips, except they
do it inside of them with their vocal folds.
But the extra padding that allows lions, tigers, leopards, and jaguars to roar would dampen
the constant vibrations that they'd need to purr.
The females of those species do make purring-like noises when they're in heat, but those noises
don't seem to be quite the same as true purring.
They're closer to a growl.
So, my cat can't roar because her vocal folds just aren't shaped for it.
But she can purr, and that's pretty dang cute and I like it.
Thanks for watching this episode of SciShow, and thanks to Patreon patron Janet Neidlinger
for asking about how cats purr!
If you're curious about why cats purr in the first place, check out our video where
I explain that it's not necessarily because they're happy.

Why do I make promises that I can't keep... - Duration: 13:17.
Why do I make promises that I can't keep?
This question came up during my Q&A panel when I was at VidCon over the last weekend
and, oddly enough, it didn't come from the audience
I ran this QnA a little bit differently, because I wanted to answer questions that I ask myself.
Questions like, 'Who am I?' 'Who am I to you guys?' Like, 'why do I make videos?'
How did I get to this point right here, and, more pertinent questions like,
Why do I make promises that I can't keep?
Because if you've been watching my videos for awhile, you know what I'm talking about.
It's not a thing out of maliciousness
Or it's not me outright lying to you guys
I have ambitions
and I wanna reach high and I wanna accomplish them
so I often find myself making promises I don't keep up with
and the panel itself was really, really interesting for me
and I hope it was interesting for the people out in the audience.
Uh, but more than that, it was, uh, a moment of self-reflection for me.
Like it was the moment where I
could just have an honest true discussion
with you guys about who I am
and who I was
and who I want to be and where I'm going with this.
And that question just kinda stuck with me
Because I vaguely answered it on stage
but then I kept thinking about it.
Why? Why do I keep promises that I can't keep?
Why am I not keeping them?
And, and if I can't keep them, then why do I make them in the first place?
Am I not working hard enough to make sure that happens?
Am I lazy? Am I forgetful?
And so,
I'll get to the finer details of this answer
Uh, later on in the video, but
to understand my mindset right now
I have to talk about something that happened just last night.
If you weren't there, we were running a charity livestream over on Twitch.
We weren't doing it over here on YouTube, so don't be surprised if you didn't see it
Um, but we were over there on Twitch
and
it was really, really awesome because Bob flew into town
and we were having so much fun and we were having all these challenge videos that we were doing
Uh, I have a T-shirt challenge that I'm probably going to post a video of later
but then
later on
we had, uh, this guy by the name of AlaskanBlueJay on YouTube
who I met through the Make-A-Wish Foundation while I was at VidCon
and I promised him
that I would bring him on board
for the livestream
and I almost forgot
Uh, but thankfully, I got friends who reminded me to
call him and we called him and had a nice discussion
and he told the story.
This really, really impactful story that resonated throughout the rest of the stream
and I'll try to do it justice right now.
You've probably heard it. He didn't make it up
or nor neither did I.
But it's the story of this young child
walks along the beach
and on this beach
hundreds of starfish wash on shore,
doomed to dry out and die.
But this child walks along and every time he sees one, he picks one up
and he throws it back into the ocean,
giving it another chance at life.
He can't get to all of them
but every morning, this child, on his way to wherever he's going
picks up another starfish and tosses it back into the ocean.
And he does this everyday for awhile.
Day by day, walking along the beach, tossing another starfish back in
And one day,
this old man who's been seeing him do this
comes up to the child
and asks
"Why are you doing this?"
"Hundreds and hundreds of starfish wash up on the shore everyday."
"And you can never save all of them."
"Why even bother?"
"You're not making a difference."
And the child looked at the man
and looked down at the ground at the starfish at his feet.
He picked up that starfish and tossed it back in the ocean.
and said
"It mattered to that one."
And that's the story
and it's a simple story with a simple message meaning that
if you do something
even in the grand scheme of
the huge insurmountable obstacle that is the bigger problem
if you chip in just a little bit,
it'll go so far.
But then almost immediately after he told that story
We're just talking there.
He started screaming
Jay
AlaskanBlueJay
started screaming through the phone
and we didn't know what to make of it.
I thought maybe the TV was on or maybe
or it was like a joke
or a prank. I had no idea.
But
what happened was
his defibrillator in his chest went off
right on stream.
And it scared the crap out of me.
It scared the crap out of everybody. Everyone in stream
was so scared.
And I didn't really know what to do. I tried to
stay calm about the situation. He went to the hospital immediately.
I tried to stay in contact with him. As of right now,
I believe he is at home resting
It was, as he was told, it was probably a malfunction
more than something life threatening but, they are monitoring him
and he is doing okay
and as an aside, if you could send some love to him, he has a YouTube channel
AlaskanBlueJay, I'll put a link in the description.
But the point here is
after that story was told
and after he went to the hospital, and after that big scare,
uh, Kathryn helped start this campaign
of one dollar donations.
We had one hundred thousand dollar goal for this charity livestream to go to Able Gamers
and we were behind.
We were actually behind
Uh, and then Kathryn
kinda like started this "March of Dollars"
where if someone donated
we could see who donated, and if they left a comment
she asked that they comment "Starfish."
And for those of you who don't know who don't know, Kathryn is my editor
and good friend
and, uh, they commented "starfish"
and after that, not only did the chat take it upon themselves to start the hashtag #PrayForJay
but also
they really, really rallied behind this concept.
That these
one dollar donations
could make all the difference in the world
and then we saw, like, the counter
steadily rocket up. Names were flying by.
Everyone was saying "starfish." People were donating
for other people, saying "Here's twenty starfish."
"Here's a hundred starfish."
Someone donated a thousand dollars
and was like, "Here"
"Here's starfish for everybody who couldn't be there and can't donate."
And it was this beautiful, beautiful thing, this avalanche of one dollar donations
The- the representation of what that meant
in the face of being scared for Jay
and- and after there, I kept up with him.
He gave us an update when he went to the hospital.
He tried to stay on the stream.
He tried to actually, like, watch the stream while he was in the hospital
which I applaud that so much
and- and- and it was this beautiful, beautiful thing
that came out of me just meeting
this one guy
and him telling a simple story
and everyone chipping in one dollar donations.
And- and without that,
I don't even know if we would've made our goal.
And this all ties into the question:
"Why do I make promises that I can't keep?"
Because I made a promise to Jay
that I would bring him on the stream
and I almost forgot.
Not out of maliciousness, but just because I got caught up with other things
and I got busy and allowed myself to become complacent.
And I don't mean to turn his tradgedy
into something that it's not
but without that
I don't think we would've had the drive to keep going.
I don't think it would've resonated as hard as it did.
And so when I ask myself, "Why do I make promises that I can't keep?"
and I think about the answer I gave on stage.
All of that is bullshit.
If I make a promise and I don't keep it,
I am bullshit.
Because if I didn't keep my promise,
what would've we missed out on?
I wouldn't have been able to talk to Jay and get to know him
and you guys wouldn't know his story
and we may not have made our goal
and how many times in the past have I made promises that I didn't keep
and what opportunities did I miss
because of that?
I don't wanna do that ever again.
I'm almost twenty-eight; I'm gonna be twenty-eight in two days here
and I do not wanna live my life making promises that are
empty
in- in all the ambition
and all the-the swept up nature of the tour
and- and going doing these ambitous projects and going to VidCon
and going to conventions and meeting people
and doing quote-unquote "bigger projects"
I- I feel like I've lost sight
of the small things that made it important
for what I do here.
And- and I made excuses for it
and-and I've relied on the fact that I'm so
happy that my friends are here
to support me
and- and my friends are here with me
who have been with me for YEARS
and Bob, who flew into town for me
just for this stream because it's a cause that he believed in
and he wanted to join me in this fun day that we had
and it was the most fun stream we've had for a long time
and it was all because
and- and it was all because
we were all able to band together and we were able to keep this one promise
and we're able to keep doing these things
over and over again
and we're able to keep doing them in the future
because that's what's important.
This community is what's important
and you
you're what's important about this channel.
That is the only thing that keeps me going
and it so easy for me to forget it.
Even if I'm focused on the why and I know
in my heart that
I'm doing this for you
and I'm doing this because I love to do this,
even that isn't enough.
Because if I let this slip through the cracks,
And I know I'm not perfect,
but if I let something as important as a promise go by
[I mean]
What am I, then?
With that grand statement
and, uh, a bunch of wordiness
what I'm here to say is that
I'm here
for you
Because I owe everything that I have to you.
and if I'm going to be in this position where I can talk to millions of people out there
and try and steer this community in a direction that I think is
genuinely good
then I have to hold myself to a higher standard.
Not just in being better as an entertainer,
but being better
as a reliable friend.
And so, I will make
one promise starting off
this new
age of Markiplier
where my word is my bond.
The schedule, starting tomorrow, will be
back and will never falter.
Eight and Twelve, PST
You'll get videos
and I will tie in the ambition that I have.
I will tie in the lofty goals that I have.
And I will keep these promises, and whenever,
I promise you guys something
even if it's here through a video
or if it's when I'm meeting you in person,
if I promise it, it's going to happen.
And I guarantee that.
'Cuz if I don't keep those promises, I'm not worthy
of you guys giving me even a moment of your time.
So I know this got serious, I know it did
Uh, and- and I feel like it had to
after the emotions of the tour and the-the windstorm
of Vidcon and coming back for the charity livestream
and just this blur
of the past few weeks and then approaching my birthday (HAPPY BIRTHDAY)
which I- I think you guys know that I don't really care about my birthday
I- uh
I just wanna say
this is
the best thing
that's ever happened to me.
What you guys have given me
is the best thing
that's ever happened to me.
And I should treat it as such.
So thank you so much for watching
and thank you to Chica
because Chica was the hero of the livestream because
uh- uh all that aside, the one
individual that made the most donations
was Chica because
we did a Pet-a-thon
and there is a infinite pet-debt.
"Chica do you mind me picking you up just for a little bit?"
Moved the chair a widdle bit
But Chica was the true hero of this livestream
and I owe her a one hundred thousand pets
from each and every one of you guys
[baby voice] because we did an amazing job there
and you were a great bub.
You like [giggles] she's just like, "Eh"
"This again"
Aw,
I hope you know how much I love you.
And I mean it
A hundred percent mean it
There is no lie here
There's no
false promises here
This is everything to me <3
So thank you everybody so much for watching
Thank you Chica for being there
Thank you my friends
who supported me
Thank you Bob who flew into town
Thank you AlaskanBlueJay
for staying so strong and thank you everybody that I met
over this past weekend
And as always
[cute baby pupper voice] we will see YOU
[normal] in the next video
Buh-bye!
Bye, bub!
Bopitty-bop-bop-bop
Who's a puppy, puppy, bub?
Love you
Okey
we'll letchu down
Good girl!
"Who's a goodie puppy?"
"Who's a good puppy?"
"Who's a good puppy!"
"Whoseagoodpuppy"
Oh, you're not supposed to jump up"
"Don't up, don't jump"
Even though I'm telling you to jump
Don't jump
Don't do it
Oh no

CEO: Public hospitals can't sustain GOP cuts to Medicaid - Duration: 7:36.
And as we have heard, a number of patient groups and major players in the health care
industry have opposed the Senate bill.
Every major hospital group has criticized it.
They say they are especially worried about deep reductions in Medicaid spending for the
poor and those with disabilities, changes that include new limits like spending caps
or block grants that would eventually cut the number of people on Medicaid.
Hospitals say they will end up paying the difference by treating the uninsured.
While I was in Colorado for the Aspen Spotlight Health Festival last week, I spoke with Kenneth
Davis.
He's president and CEO of the Mount Sinai Health System, which includes seven hospitals
and more than 140 ambulatory centers and practices in New York.
Dr. Ken Davis, thank you very much for talking with us.
You were quoted recently as commenting on the House version of the Republican overhaul
of the Affordable Care Act.
You said it would have a fairly devastating effect on the country.
Is that the way you feel about the Senate version too?
DR.
KENNETH DAVIS, President and CEO, Mount Sinai Health System: Absolutely.
I think, if anything, there are aspects of the Senate bill that can be even more problematic.
Particularly, the glide path to per capita or block grants is going to produce a lower
reimbursement for the states than was even in the House bill.
JUDY WOODRUFF: What about the effect on hospitals?
DR.
KENNETH DAVIS: Well, there are a number of things that impact hospitals.
All of them collectively, particularly for hospitals that have a reasonable number of
Medicaid patients, are pretty difficult.
There are substantial cuts.
For instance, the public hospitals -- the Health and Hospital Corporation in New York
City, they can't possibly sustain these cuts to the Medicaid budget.
Other hospitals that have a large number of Medicaid patients have a very tiny margin.
That margin evaporates with this bill.
JUDY WOODRUFF: And is that -- even with tweaking, you're saying there's literally no way around?
DR.
KENNETH DAVIS: Well, fundamentally, this bill is about decreasing Medicaid and decreasing
what states receive for Medicaid and decreasing, in the House case, those who have the extended
benefits or the eligibility that they previously didn't have.
The bill isn't that much around tweaks to Obamacare.
It's a little bit.
It's a bit to tweak the exchanges, but the money's coming from Medicaid.
And unless they take a completely different approach to Medicaid, I don't see that tweaks
are going to help.
JUDY WOODRUFF: So, there are observers of the health care system who look at all this,
and they say hospitals are a big part of the problem.
They're consolidating.
There are mergers.
Doctors are cutting deal with hospitals.
Everybody's making more money.
Hospitals are charging more.
What could hospitals do that they aren't doing now to get some of these costs down?
DR.
KENNETH DAVIS: Well, let's remember all hospitals are not alike.
In many cases, geography is destiny in hospitals.
So if you're in a system like ours, in which the vast majority of our payments are either
Medicaid or Medicare, that's fixed.
And the size of our hospital system isn't going to change how much Medicaid reimbursement
or Medicare reimbursement we get.
Additionally, as some systems have increased in size, they have done so in order that they
can move away from fee-for-service medicine to what's called value.
To do that, to be a system that can take risk and value, you have to be large enough so
that patients don't escape your network.
And that's part of the thing that is driving consolidation.
JUDY WOODRUFF: Is enough being done, you think, to be mindful of costs?
DR.
KENNETH DAVIS: Well, the margins in many hospitals are so small that, if you are not fixated
on costs, you are bankrupt.
And in New York state, we have seen 30-plus hospitals go bankrupt in recent years.
JUDY WOODRUFF: So the lesson is?
DR.
KENNETH DAVIS: The lesson is, we are focused on expenses.
We have to be fixated on expenses.
But what we really need to do -- and we were trying to do this previously -- and hopefully
we can continue to do this -- is ask, how can we deliver health care in a different,
more efficient, cost-efficient way?
The system is failing us.
The macroeconomics of health care are such that the government can't afford it, the states
can't afford it, the employers can't afford it, and the employees can't afford it.
What we have got to ask is, what's wrong with the system and how do we change it so that
it's more efficient for everybody?
JUDY WOODRUFF: You brought up Medicaid.
You were saying how much of this legislation is around Medicaid.
There are many who say that the Medicaid expansion that was part of the Affordable Care Act originally,
which I know you were strongly for, the critics say this was simply throwing money at an inefficient
program, poor-quality care, people on Medicaid don't get the same level of care that others
do.
And they point to studies showing that, even with the expansion of Medicaid, that that
care is not getting much better.
How do you respond?
DR.
KENNETH DAVIS: Well, those studies or study doesn't take a very long perspective.
You can't see the difference in things like mortality for quite some time.
If you're lowering people's hemoglobin A1c or better controlling their blood pressure,
it can take sometimes years before you see an extension of a lifespan in those patients.
But what we did find, what was reported was an improvement in mental health.
And it seems like people have forgotten that.
The largest provider of payment for addiction services is Medicaid.
Twenty percent of all Medicaid recipients, at the very least, have mental health problems.
To take that out of the equation is very, very destructive.
And to think that we're not having a positive influence -- because the only thing we really
directly affect and that we can measure short-term is improvement in mental health -- is a little
demeaning to our psychiatrists.
JUDY WOODRUFF: Let me go back to the mega-question about our whole -- our health care system.
What conservatives are arguing, among other things, is that when you have health care,
rising costs of health care driving at least a sixth of the economy, that something's really
out of whack, that the whole system is too expensive, too out of control.
Government participating in it is helping to drive up those costs.
Do they have a point?
DR.
KENNETH DAVIS: Not really.
We lose money on every Medicaid patient who walks through our door, whether it's inpatient
or outpatient.
That's the cost of health care.
If they were truly interested in the question of why is our system so expensive, this would
be a bill about how we move away from fee-for-service medicine, in which physicians and hospitals
get paid for everything they do, and moving more toward value and risk, in which patients,
providers are all aligned, such that everyone wants you to stay well and out of the hospital.
We would have more incentives for readmission penalties.
We would have incentives for shorter stay.
We would have more incentives to bring care to a less expensive place, like the ambulatory
setting.
But those issues aren't being addressed in this bill.
JUDY WOODRUFF: And your point is conservatives may make that argument, but they're not promoting...
DR.
KENNETH DAVIS: If they are truly interested in changing the cost structure, making it
more efficient and less expensive, they have got to deal with reforms that actually affect
those metrics.
And these don't.
JUDY WOODRUFF: Dr. Ken Davis, we thank you very much.
DR.
KENNETH DAVIS: Thank you.

Kate Fails To Emulate Princess Diana Frosty Duchess Can't Please – Queen Sees A Royal Failure - Duration: 2:32.
Prince William might have gained some popularity since his and Kate Middleton�s Royal Canadian
Trip. The Duke of Cambridge was gleefully greeted by patients and graduates during the
his visit to Basingstoke Hospital. Kate Middleton, on the other hand, received somewhat of a
frosty greeting while in the Netherlands. She was there to take part in a panel discussion
at The Hague with mental health professionals and other experts on addiction. The previous
day, Kate Middleton participated, along with Prince William and Prince Harry, in events
to honor World Mental Health Day. Attendees at that event seemed more interested in meeting
William and Harry than they were in rubbing elbows with Kate. Kate�s deepest desire
is to be as beloved as Princess Diana, but the future Queen is failing miserably. No
matter what Kate does, it�s never enough to please anyone not Queen Elizabeth, not
Prince Charles, not the public, and certainly not Camilla Parker Bowles. The only way Kate
can find her way back into the good graces of the world and gain back the immense popularity
she once enjoyed would be an announcement that the Cambridge�s are expecting another
Royal baby. It seems the only time Kate is afforded any real adulation is when she�s
pregnant or has just given birth. Then everyone loves Kate Middleton expect for Camilla Parker
Bowles. The Duchess of Cornwall and the Duchess of Cambridge will never get along, that�s
a given. At least Kate and Camilla have one thing in common neither will ever eclipse
Princess Diana in popularity. These two Royal wives have neither the compassion nor that
special brand of magic Diana�s brother Charles Spencer talked about in his eulogy. It does
appear that Prince William has finally wised up and realized he needed to take a page from
Princess Diana�s book: express true empathy and warmth when interacting with his British
subjects. The public seems to be responding to this new and improved Duke of Cambridge.
One can only hope that William has finally grown into his Royal role and will keep following
in Diana�s impossible to fill shoes. tell us your thoughts in comments below. thanks
