			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2094" title="0304_octomom_exc" src="http://www.hewdge.com/wp-content/uploads/0304_octomom_exc.jpg" alt="0304_octomom_exc" width="490" height="469" /><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Nadya Suleman, the fertile and fast-talking Octomom, has been busy. Last month, she appeared on TV show, The View, where she revealed that she might even want another baby, “someday far, far, far, far in the future … if I meet somebody.”</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">She has also been having trouble raising the $450,000 needed to pay off her mortgage. What’s a gal to do? Enter Steven Hirsch, co-chairman of Vivid Entertainment, one of the world&#8217;s largest purveyors of adult films, who announced last week that his company would pay off Nadya&#8217;s mortgage if she would make a porn film.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">At the same time, PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) has approached her with a slightly more modest offer &#8211; $5,000 to put a sign in her front yard proclaiming, &#8220;Don&#8217;t Let Your Dog or Cat Become an Octomom. Always Spay or Neuter.&#8221;</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">As an added incentive, the animal rights organization said it would throw in a month&#8217;s supply of veggie burgers and veggie hot dogs for the fecund female and her 14 children, who range in age from 1 to 8.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Read the full story here: </span></span><a href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100325/ap_on_bi_ge/us_octuplets" target="_blank">http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100325/ap_on_bi_ge/us_octuplets</a></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;"><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Helga Hewston, roving reporter for Hewdge, caught up with Nadya Suleman at her home in California, where she agreed to an in-depth interview</span></span></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>Helga</strong>: Nadya, how did you first hear about PETA’s spaying and neutering campaign?</span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>Nadya</strong>: Ok, well, one of my vol&#8230; …oh ferchrissakes, hang on….one of the kids is escaping….oh yep, number twelve…<em><span style="color: #ff0000;">Get the f*** back here, ya little brat!! </span>A</em>s I was saying, one of my volunteers told me about PETA.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>Helga</strong>: Go on&#8230;</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>Nadya</strong>: Yeah, right now, I have lots of offers coming my way…<em><span style="color: #ff0000;">Hey you! Kid! Get back here! Whatever the hell your number is!!</span> </em>As well as PETA, I’ve had another offer to star in an adult movie. Cool huh? Did you see me on The View last month?</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>Helga</strong>: No. Were you ever an animal rights activist?</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>Nadya</strong>: Ha! Take a look around honey…this place is a ZOO!</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>Helga</strong>: Don’t call me honey. So what will you do with your fees from PETA?</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>Nadya</strong>: You know&#8230;.it’s a question that gives me sleepless nights. Should I have the full tummy tuck or should I just work on the boobs? It’s a BIG decision…if you know what I mean… Oh shit!…hang on&#8230;..<span style="color: #ff0000;">OH NO!!!!!!</span><em></em><br />
</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>Helga</strong>: ….hmm…don’t tell me….another one of your 14 kids trying to escape?</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>Nadya</strong>: Hell no!…MUCH worse &#8211; a volunteer trying to escape!</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>Helga: </strong>Nadya, you never disappoint. Go for the spaying dear…er…the campaign I mean&#8230;<br />

<p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The disturbing but true story, tells of a linguist father, d&#8217;Armond Speers, who spoke to his baby son only in Klingon (&#8217;<em>tlhIngan Hol</em>&#8216; in Klingon) for the first three years of his son&#8217;s life, as a kind of linguistic experiment.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Star-Trek fans or &#8216;Trekkies&#8217; will know that &#8216;Klingonese&#8217; is a language spoken by the warrior race of alien beings (and on-off enemy of the Starship Federation) called the Klingons. Even though their language is an invention of Star Trek writers, it has inspired a serious world-wide cult following, as well as its own syntax and grammar rules. </span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Italian prime minister, <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/silvio-berlusconi">Silvio Berlusconi</a>, has repeated his reference to <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/barack-obama">Barack Obama</a>&#8217;s &#8220;tan&#8221;  – and this  time made a wisecrack about <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/michelleobama">Michelle Obama</a>&#8217;s skin colour, too.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Berlusconi told a Milan rally of conservative supporters yesterday that he was bringing greetings from the <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/usa">United States</a> from &#8220;What&#8217;s his name? Some tanned guy. Ah, Barack Obama!&#8221;</span></span> <span id="more-1531"></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">He added: &#8220;You won&#8217;t believe it, but two of them went to the beach, because the wife is also tanned.&#8221;</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Last week photographs showed Michelle Obama greeting many leaders at the G20 summit in Pittsburgh summit with a kiss but stiffly holding out her arm for a handshake when she came to greet Berlusconi.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Pictures show Berlusconi gazing at Mrs Obama&#8217;s gown, instead of her face, and holding his arms out as if in delight at what he sees, while the US president looks on, apparently not amused.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Berlusconi has been on the defensive over a sex scandal that erupted last spring after his wife complained that the 72-year-old prime minister was infatuated with young women and announced she was divorcing him.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Prosecutors in the southern Italian city of Bari are investigating as a suspect in a cocaine investigation a local businessman who has said he sent some 30 young women to dinners and parties at Berlusconi&#8217;s Rome palazzo and Sardinian villa. The businessman told investigators he paid the women&#8217;s expenses and in some cases extra money in case they had sex with the prime minister.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Berlusconi was unaware of these arrangements, the businessman said. The prime minister, who is not under investigation in the scandal, has denied ever paying for sex.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">At yesterday&#8217;s  rally, Berlusconi also said that the cordial relationship between the US and <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/italy">Italy</a> was intact. He delivered a backhanded compliment to the US president when referring to Obama&#8217;s use of a teleprompter in public speeches: &#8220;He&#8217;s not reckless like those of us who say what comes to mind. We all asked ourselves: &#8216;Does he know what he&#8217;s doing, or is he just someone who knows how to read well?&#8217;</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">&#8220;But he&#8217;s all there, in a big way, and that should make us all happy and satisfied because we need the greatest democracy, the greatest country, to be in trustworthy hands,&#8221; Berlusconi said.</span></span></div>

Wow Commandante! It was fun reading about you and your ‘tribe’ of little ‘Fidelitos’. I hear Cuba has named a few cocktails in your honour &#8211; &#8216;Sex On The Bay Of Pigs Beach&#8217; and &#8216;Cuba Libido&#8217; immediately spring to mind&#8230;<br />
We have so much in common! I too, am a celebrity tyrant and have a small tribe – actually, 14 offspring in total (according to my publicist)<br />
Fidel, I need your advice: one of my volunteer nannies is a cute Cuban guy called Julio, who says I shouldn’t consider wearing my new Gap Che Guevara bikini at my next TV interview, until I get a full tummy-tuck. A tummy-tuck? How superficial!<br />
Fidel, I know you’ve had a little surgery yourself recently, so think about it! Why should a media-star and national treasure like myself undergo a full tummy-tuck without getting breast implants, liposuction and a chemical peel? It doesn’t make sense. Are Cubans always this unreasonable?</em></p>
<p><em>Love,<br />
Octomom</em></p>
<p><em>PS: How can I be more like you and get entire countries to donate to me?</em></p>
