Ireland fly-half role up for grabs, says Schmidt
- February 12, 2017
Although Italy made amends for a 33-7 defeat to Wales with far better discipline, Conor O'Shea's men were dominated for long periods and, worryingly, saw their defence collapse in a completely one-sided second half. Jackson converted on 36 minutes for a 28-10 first-half lead that left Italy in disarray. Fresh from an opening day defeat at Murrayfield, Ireland flew out of the blocks and punched holes in Italy's defence nearly at will. (more...)

And plus I was really being myself, I would have just said "c*ck" or "p***y" so she was really lucky. Us, too, Lena . Us too. "She threw me off!" Watch the hilariously bungled interview above! Dunham had to be reminded that they were still on air. (more...)

Shinzo Abe to propose new cabinet level talks with US
- February 12, 2017
Now he's putting his game to work. Trump said the alliance between the USA and Japan was a cornerstone of regional peace and stability, edging away from campaign pledges to force Japan to pay more for the USA security umbrella. He will be the second foreign leader to visit the White House since the inauguration of President Donald Trump. Abe, of course, was an active supporter of the deal drafted by former President Obama, but he signaled a different approach during his visit. (more...)
