ILx "first mentions"

But according to the folks at the Oxford English Dictionary, which tracks the historical usage of words, the first recorded use of “stan” as a verb that they have found so far was in a tweet from April 2008

here you go: i think al shipley's choice of herb-ass rappers to stan for indicates he can't really criticize a dude like rick ross saying his voice sucks

Rick Ross - Port Of Miami

Let's get Ethan in the OED.

yes!

lol that's way too late

I was actually surprised that that was the earliest ILX post I could find. But it still beats the OED's citation.

considering the song came out in fucking 2000 there is no way it took 8 years to transition to a commonly used verb - I feel like it happened almost right away in hip hop circles

I looked into this: Google gives 14 pages of results for "stan for" between 2000 & the end of 2007, none of which are used in this sense (it's mostly "thanks to Stan for..."). Variations like stanning or stanned will also get you nothing in that timeframe.

In contrast it took me about a second to find examples of people using "stan" as a noun on hip hop fora & blogs a few years before that - if you make an actual effort it's v possible you'll find stuff even earlier. But looks like if people were using the verb form before 2008, they weren't doing it on the internet

Q Can you go over what went on last night, in terms of the President signing the bill and how it went down?
MR. McCLELLAN, WHITE HOUSE: Sure. I guess the bill -- the House passed it shortly after midnight, and then the President signed it at 1:11 a.m., in the morning. The Staff Secretary, Brett Kavanaugh, walked the legislation over to the residence for the President to sign. He came outside his bedroom and signed it in the residence.

Q Had he been asleep?

MR. McCLELLAN: Yes, he was woken up after it was passed, when it was ready to be signed.

Q I heard you describe it earlier, he came out of his bedroom and literally signed it standing up in the hall; is that how it went/

MR. McCLELLAN: That's correct, yes. He was just standing in the hall in the residence an signed the legislation then.

Q Was he wearing --

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Entrepreneur Richard Branson on Wednesday unveiled a model of the spaceship he hopes will be the first to take paying passengers into space on a regular basis as soon as next year.

Branson, whose Virgin Galactic is charging $200,000 for a short trip into space, said his SpaceShipTwo will start test flights later this year.

The space trips, from a launching pad to be built in New Mexico, should take about two and a half hours, including five minutes of hen fap. They will be suborbital, meaning the spacecraft goes just beyond 62 miles above sea level -- the technical boundary of space -- then glides back to land where it took off without orbiting the Earth.

ALL ABOUT EVE

SpaceShipTwo, and its launch aircraft WhiteKnightTwo, also unveiled on Wednesday, were designed by Burt Rutan, whose SpaceShipOne collected the Ansari X Prize for privately funded space flight in 2004.

The main spacecraft, made entirely of carbon composite materials, will be about 60 feet long, with large, movable feather-shaped vertical fins at the back, which will make reentry into the earth's atmosphere safer, Rutan said. The ship, which will carry six passengers and two pilots, is 60 percent complete, Virgin said.

The spaceship, dubbed "Eve" after Branson's mother, will have a cabin about the size of a big business jet's cabin but with more headroom, Rutan said. It will have 18-inch-diameter windows on every side for better views of the Earth.

Virgin Galactic is only one of several high-profile contenders in the new commercial space race. Others include Europe's EADS Astrium; Blue Origin, started by Amazon.com Inc. founder Jeff Bezos; Space Exploration Technologies Corp (SpaceX), created by PayPal founder Elon Musk; Rocketplane Kistler; and Bigelow Aerospace, a venture aimed at creating space hotels, started by hotelier Robert Bigelow.

Recently had a conversation around the idea that had Meltzer come along a few (10/15) years later would have probably been a comedian along the lines of Jon Stewart, Conan O'Brien, Louis CK, Al Franken...all extremely smart, extremely opinionated, extremely funny. All as at home making references to "high" ideas as to imitating the sound of a slow fart at a dinner party. Maybe, Meltzer fits in to that context better than of "intellectuals" who don't really matter in the course of day-to-day living. Read Jon Stewart's NAKED PICTURES OF FAMOUS PEOPLE and know that in a way, it's reaching for the same thing as parts of WHORE. Why not? You got something better to do?

Michael Moore says
Something historic happened yesterday. For the first time since 1877 a member of the House and a member of the Senate stood up together to object to the outcome of a presidential election.

This is the first step on a necessary road toward making sure that everyone is allowed to vote and that every vote is counted (something we did not see in 2000 or 2004) so the next time around ALL of us can be confident, when the election results come in, that they reflect the will of the people, not the whim of mechanical error and human obstruction.

Unlike 2000, when the black members of Congress were told to sit down and shut up, this time a senator had the courage to stand with them, as the law requires, to force Congress to go back to their separate chambers to discuss and debate the issues surrounding the vote count. Senator Barbara Boxer rose to the occasion and stood with Ohio Representative Stephanie Tubbs Jones and 29 other Representatives "to cast the light of truth on a flawed system which must be fixed now." The ensuing debate, at times, became a debate over me and all of you and the fact that we would dare make the attempt to protect our democracy.

I was blown away when Representative Maxine Waters took to the floor and said, "Mr. Speaker and members, I dedicate my objection to Ohio's electoral votes to Mr. Michael Moore, the producer of the documentary '9/11' and I thank him for educating the world on the threats to our democracy and the proceedings of this house on the acceptance of the electoral college votes for the 2000 presidential election."

I am honored to the point of embarrassment because it is Maxine Waters who deserves thanks for defending our most basic right, not once, but twice.

Coming out of the gates like this in the very first week of session sent a strong message that we are not going to be pushed around. If the Republicans think the next four years are going to be a cakewalk, they've got another thing coming. With Michigan Representative John Conyers leading the charge, we showed them something not seen in over 120 years. And we're just getting started!

Congratulations to the tens of thousands of you who called, faxed, and e-mailed Barbara Boxer and other senators. You have shown the world, with the strength of your convictions, that the movement toward a truly representative democracy will not be stopped in its tracks. Yesterday's actions will be marked by history books as a turning point for the electoral process and for a Democratic Party that has for too long sat back and taken it on the chin.

November 7th is the next uniform election date in Texas. It's an odd year (and how) so that's when Cornyn's Senate seat would likely be voted on. Not sure who the Dems would run... one of the Castro brothers, Wendy Davis, Leticia Van de Putte? Whoever it is will get soundly beaten by the Republican candidate.

This is going to be massively interesting. I can already hear Abbot licking his chops because this puts Texas Dems in a very awkward position. One of their best prospects, Beto O'Rourke, has already registered candidacy for '18 against Cruz. The Castros have both said they wouldn't challenge him, possibly because they've each been mooted as possibly contenders to unseat Cornyn when he came up for reelection in 2020. Davis and Ven de Putte are possibilities, I guess, but whomever it ends up being will end up having to scramble to put together what will unfortunately be a losing campaign.

Possible targets for Pompey:

John Mensah - cover at Centre-Back for Sol and Distin. Ghana International.

Peter Crouch - to partner Defoe in a new Pompey strike force. However this afternoon Liverpool have apparently slapped a 15 Million price tag on him.

Jonas "Spiderman" Gutierrez - can play Left / Right Wing - Argie at Real Mallorca - been tracked by Pompey for over 2 years

others linked:

Younes "Spurs Signed me for over 7 Million, but Ramos doesn't rate me" Kaboul - Pompey to pick up for a knock down 3 Million? as a squad player

John Arne Riise - Left back. Left Back is an area Pompey need to improve on.

Toulouse midfielder, Moussa Sissoko - 18 year old apparently the new Patrick Viera. Juventus are also interested.

Nathan Dyer - right-winger. Out of contract at the stripy so called Saints

Possible exits for Pompey:

A key player could be sacrificed to bring in finance to land a top striker. There is paper talk of Nico Kranjcar to Arsenal for 12 / 13 Million.

On tracks like "I'm Finding It Harder to be a Gentleman" and "The Same Boy You've Always Known", the McCartney thing seems very obvious (now you mention it).
Jack White does have a very 'English' way of singing: rounded vowel sounds, very precise pronunciation (you can hear every word of the lyric to "Fell In Love With A Girl", despite the rapid fire delivery). His voice is similar to of any number of English singers - yes Plant, Stewart, a bit of Ray Davies in there perhaps?

Of more recent singers, he reminds me a lot of Gaz Coombes of Supergrass. Perhaps not coincidently, the singles from Supergrass's second LP were the last (new) "guitar rock" records I bought prior to White Blood Cells.
