I'm not sure what kind of expectations Claudia G. has of a pediatric dentist, but let me tell you something...clearly she hasn't been out there much. We LOVED Dr. Shaw and would recommend her to anyone without hesititation. I have 3 boys ages 4,5,&6 and they are, to say the least, a force to be reckoned with especially when they're all together. I've been to several different dentists and Dr. Shaw is the first to handle my 3 boys simultaneously with ease and patience and with a fun and super positive demeanor. She was so sweet and made sure to make all of my boys comfortable with the process. When my oldest started to get nervous and challenging, instead of getting short and stern (like other Docs we've had), she and her staff went as far as to show my oldest each and every tool that would be used during the cleaning and explain how they would be used. They reassured him that he wouldn't feel any pain and he really responded to them. He is a very cautious type A personality and has a major fear of any kind of doctor. She was the first dentist to be able to put him at ease and make him feel relaxed. She actually sang to him throughout the entire cleaning and it seemed to really help him feel relaxed. She has a great demeanor with children which is what I've found lacking in most "pediatric" dentists. You can tell the Dr. Shaw really loves kids and has a passion for what she does. During the visit she called me over to point out a few things with their cleaning and with their x-rays that I needed to take note of, which is way more than any other dentist has offered. I really like the fact that my husband and i were welcomed in the back during x-rays and during the cleaning, many dentists don't allow parents to be with their kids during the cleaning and my kids have definitely had a hard time dealing with that in the past, so kuddos for the "parents allowed" policy. She gave me lots of good up to date information about how to care for their teeth based on studies she has researched, and explained why she used some of the techniques and advice she gives. Again...I really hope you give Dr. Shaw a chance, as an experienced parent who's had several other dentists I can say without hesitation that she is to date the best we've had and we will stay with Dr. Shaw till she won't see us anymore!.

Dr. Eric Smith is the best dentist I have ever had. I went to Lovett dental because I was in so much pain on the right side of my mouth. I went to a dentist previously and was told I needed a root canal. I got the root canal done last year. I thought the pain from my right side had came to an end. Little did I know, it didn't. My tooth continue to hurt and continued to cause me more pain and problems. When I visited Lovett Dental, I didn't know if the doctors there could help me, but with all the pain I was experiencing, I decided to give Lovett a chance. This is where I met Dr. Eric Smith. After examining my mouth and teeth, he discovered I needed to have my root canal redone and a crown. I was so scared not knowing if my root canal really needed to be redone. I didn't know if he was going to be able to take care of the issue. But he did. He was so friendly, gentle and had a wonderful staff who helped assisted him with the work. Since I had my root canal redone by Dr. Eric Smith, I have not had any pain or issues since. I still can''t believe all the pain that I had is now all gone. Dr. Smith and his staff deserves two thumbs up for their wonderful service. On the whole, Lovett dental is a wonderful dental office to receive service. Be sure to request Dr. Eric Smith and his staff if you want to have the perfect experience I had. From now on, I will ONLY see Dr. Eric Smith and Im sure if you give him a chance, you will too.

We'll respond shortly.
In a recent thread on the East Bay Ruby Meetup list, several people chimed in with Ruby IDE suggestions. I suggested RubyMine, which we use at Pivotal. Several people mentioned NetBeans and Aptana RadRails, so I decided to have a little contest.
Now, if I am going to work in an IDE and sacrifice the speed of a text editor, I want to see it work for me ('cuz RubyMine can chew through all your CPU and RAM and then some faster than you can say Moore's Law). That means understanding Ruby, and using that information to save me some significant thinking and work.
I don't mean code-generation macros or dumb context-aware keyword-completion, I mean something useful like knowing where my classes and methods are. In my book, that leaves out Emacs, Vi, and even TextMate, regardless of their other merits (sorry people, I like text editors too, but I'm making up this test – flame away, the comments section is below).
So, here's the smackdown scenario:
app in
GemInstaller::Application) using IDE navigation (
Command-click in all the IDEs, although sometimes they ignore you)
Result? RubyMine succeeded, NetBeans and RadRails failed miserably. Here's what happened in each:
create_application class method reference in
app = create_application. NetBeans takes me to the method declaration in same class.
app method in
app is an
attr_accessor on another class, NetBeans can't find it.
create_application class method reference in
app = create_application. RadRails takes me to the method declaration in same class.
app method in
registry.app. RadRails takes me to the
attr_accessor on the
Registry class (without a prompt, and highlighting the symbol, which is even better than RubyMine).
:app symbol argument to
FAIL! ANGRY BEEP! RadRails can't figure out the symbol parameter to
attr_accessor. It says "Current text selection does not resolve to a Ruby element".
create_application class method reference in
app = create_application. RubyMine takes me to the method declaration in same class.
app method in
registry.app. RubyMine pops up a dialog asking if I mean the
attr_accessor on the
Registry class, or the local variable I'm declaring. That's rather silly, I admit, but the point is it followed the reference to another class.
attr_accessor choice. RubyMine takes me to the
attr_accessor line in Registry.
:app symbol argument to
attr_accessor. RubyMine takes me to the point where the
@app instance variable is initialized.
Application class name in the
GemInstaller::Application.new constructor invocation. RubyMine pops up a dialog asking if I mean the
Application class in my application, or two other Application classes that happen to be in my Ruby installation. This is also a silly question – it should have known the correct choice because of my namespacing, but it still found the class.
GemInstaller:Application choice. RubyMine takes me to the class declaration.
SUCCESS! RubyMine drilled all the way to the class declaration, even through an
attr_accessor, albeit with a couple of stupid questions.
I personally think this is a Big Deal. In the past, I've mocked Ruby IDE functionality as a poor simulacrum of the vast power in Java IDEs. When using Eclipse in Java, I could perform epic refactorings, extracting superclasses and adding parameters to method signatures; refactoring scores of classes across multiple projects in a few mighty keystrokes. Yes, I'm fully aware that this is because Ruby is a dynamic language, but that doesn't make me miss a real refactoring IDE any less, and others have long lamented these shortcomings, as well.
So, for years, even though I'd always indulge my pairs if they wanted to use an IDE, I've done all my personal hacking with a fast, lightweight text editor and command line tools. To me, the benefits of a memory- and processor-sucking IDE with tons of unnecessary, unconfigurable, resource-eating tiny-ass-fonts and chrome did not justify giving up the speed and responsiveness of a great text editor.
However, RubyMine can now navigate code for me. I don't have to think and manually find that class, RubyMine knows where it is. Granted, that ain't no Extract Superclass, but it saves me a lot of thought and time, both of which are increasingly rare commodities for me.
To be fair, this is really just a problem related to parsing and interpreting
attr_accessor declarations, and I expect that NetBeans and RadRails will pass this test as well in another release or two. That's all great news, because it means that Ruby IDEs are finally, slowly, coming of age. I think I'll still be waiting a long time for an automated Modify Method Signature refactoring, though…
Thanks. That was helpful.
Interesting. I'd been coding Seaside for the past two months, and coming back to Ruby/Rails I feel like the tool support is just so primitive. The IDEs have a LOOOOONG way to go before catching up to Smalltalk environments, but I agree that even basic code navigation is very valuable.
Thanks for the post. I learned something.
I too am a fan of sticking to a good editor. I've been a Vim fanatic for a decade, and yes, I know that's unpopular in the Rails world. I found that using NetBeans with the jVi plugin, I get a lot of the benefits of both worlds. I can slice and dice text crazy fast, but I also get some of those cushy IDE benefits.
I also like NetBeans because I code in a range of environments. NetBeans works pretty well for HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, Python, and Rails, which are my main languages. I still fall back to Emacs for Erlang, Oz, and Haskell, and I use Vim for everything else–Vim is always open for me ;)
The biggest reason I don't use anything based on Eclipse is because it leaves me feel very overwhelmed. NetBeans doesn't scare me so much, and yet I can still use it with most of the languages I care about.
I blogged about my NetBeans experiences:
@zydeholic – thanks!
@Shannon – RubyMine does have good HTML, CSS, and Javascript support. I never used NetBeans heavily, but I have to say that Idea/RubyMine does just feel a lot nicer than Eclipse.
@Pat – Yeah, I agree, it is still a pretty lame state of affairs – but I didn't say that above because it wouldn't have been as cool of an article ;) Just today RubyMine was unable to figure out where a method was because of metaprogramming or who knows what, and presented me with a list of about a billion occurrences to choose from. I think my scenario above was a real easy chestnut because it was plain-vanilla OO with the tricky part being the attr_accessor.
Thanks for giving us this test, but I thinks it could be better. I use Netbeans every day at work. I can navigate through code, and Netbeans understand where my variables and declarations are. Maybe it´s true and RubyMine has one or two better things, but it sacrifies all my cpu, all my ram, and the worst… it´s not free.
Now, do you really think I´ll pay for RubyMine IDE when I have Netbeans?
I used several trials of RubyMine, and it waist a lot of time skaning projects when I open it. It also breaks 5 or 6 times in two mounths.
I´ll keep Netbeans. But it´s my opinión, and again thanks for yours
@kikorb – Thanks for the comment. Yes, RubyMine isn't free ($99 US), and they have had a few annoying bugs in the latest releases. I also believe you when you say that NetBeans may be less of a resource hog – in my testing, RubyMine and RadRails did freeze several times, but I don't remember NetBeans freezing.
Regardless, in my case, I don't want to learn more than one IDE, and RubyMine is what we use it at Pivotal – and not just for Ruby (it is great for Javascript). So, it makes sense for me to use it (and pay for it) on my personal box – even though I'll still probably use a text editor for most stuff, especially when I want to open up a project and get to work quickly without a lot of freezing.
You mean spare. You said rare, rare commodities. You mean spare.
I personally think this is a big deal.
And what does each one cost?
Good comment. IDEs are the way to go.
The vim vs. emacs fanatics fail to realize that the will never fully make the switch to ingelligent IDEs.
Now, for ruby an IDE is not really needed, but a good IDE would for sure be helpful.
Since you asked for flames from text editor users…
If you need so much refactoring that you need a tool to do it, your designs suck. In Java it makes sense coz it's an awful language. But in Ruby there's no excuse. Now you're going to avoid metaprogramming curveballs since you don't think your IDE can handle it. You're shackling yourself to what your tools can do. The reason us "emacs and vim fanatics" prefer text editors is because we don't rely on tool support for our languages if the language features are powerful enough.
Have a read through Art of the MetaObject Protocol and take another look into some of Ruby's metaprogramming and you'll see a new world open up which your IDE may not support. Avoiding it means you may as well use Java and be done with it. Then you get the performance, the IDEs, and all the frameworks you need.
Since they all support ctags/etags, Dissing Emacs/VIM/TextMate for not knowing where your classes and methods are is a strawman and a silly reason not to use them.
That said, intelligent refactoring support and Eclipse-for-Java-style "quick fixes" is something that would make an IDE genuinely useful. I'm still waiting for a decent library of refactorings in a Ruby IDE. I'll keep trying them periodically to see how they are coming along.
I am using Netbeans for Rails and JRuby development. I use Eclipse for Java development.
I never have really understood why people get wound up over IDE vs Non IDE. I think for some it is a badge of honor to say they don't use an IDE. I guess they think it makes them a better programmer? It is a tool. Just like any other trade, everyone uses different tools and hopefully uses the ones that makes them most productive.
The main reason I like IDEs is because of the debugging features. For debugging nothing compares. I also like having the subversion tools built in as well.
I also don't understand language fan boys. To say Java sucks is just nonsense. Is it the be all end all? No, but no language is. Otherwise if one language was, then all of the others would not be around.
In my testing RubyMine was horrible! It has horrible fonts (common what's the problem the Java guys have with antialiasing) and crashes on our ERP project (more then 100 models)..
I think I'll just stick with gedit (with gmate) and Textmate when I'm on my Mac
An IDE isn't always more productive then a good editor. Everyone who ever used Textmate knows that
Coming from Common Lisp & Smalltalk, i just have to laugh when
i read articles like this one. Here is a clue: Ruby is very similar
albeit less powerful to other dynamic languages that have existed
for decades and have solved what you consider to be issues.
It might be wise for you to take a look at these other languages
and see what they did and how they did it.
@Avdi: ctags does go a long way towards code navigability in Vim. I still miss Resharper for C#, but my editing is a lot faster with Vim.
@Pat: I was really surprised by what Smalltalk had going long before the Ruby world. The first refactoring browser was for ST. TDD is very easy, since you write a test, run it, type in the code where the test breaks, then continue on. Turtles all the way down. And more. Dolphin Smalltalk was the most fun I've ever had in front of a computer.
Komodo is actualy quite a good Ruby IDE too.
It's not free, and is't ruby-only, but it's my favourite for Ruby.
Hello Chad,
Nice comparison =). As for RubyMine I've just wanted to highlight one moment in your code: You usually use require calls like this:
dir = File.dirname(__FILE__)
require File.expand_path("#{dir}/geminstaller/requires.rb")
unfortunately RubyMine doesn't understand such require, but if you use a bit another presentation:
require File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__), "geminstaller/requires.rb")
RubyMine will understand it and will be a little smarter =)
@Mark – Pros and cons on both sides, but IDEs have some sweet tools. One of my favorite features of Idea/RubyMine IDE is the little gutter indicators which show lines you have modified in your working copy – and you can click to see an instant diff with the version in source control. That is incredibly useful. If anyone knows how to make a text editor do that, please let me know.
I'd like to point out that Netbeans has this too… plus it also saves snapshots of files you are working on, so you can go back however long you've been working on a file and see what happened before you went down the rabbit hole :D

After the Magnolia Vase, the most impressive metal object exhibited by Tiffany & Company at the Chicago World's Columbian Exposition of 1893 was this punchbowl, an epic example of the late nineteenth-century fascination with civilizations of the past. The Tiffany exposition catalogue described the eight forms at the top of the bowl as "suggested by the prow of the Norseman's boat." The body of the bowl is fashioned of decarbonized iron, inlaid with silver and gold and displayed on a calamander wood base. Representing the Viking Revival taste, the piece was ornamented with such Norse mythological creatures as the wolves' heads that appear on the handles. Its overall heft and boldness were intended to symbolize the strength of the Vikings. The designer, Paulding Farnham (1859–1927), also designed the Museum's Adams Vase (04.1).

I'm having a similar problem when attempting to export ODB++ from .brd file. It seems to break at some point and starts spitting out the error messages referring to D:\vSureSRC\ like the OP. The last few lines of the log_brd2odb_x.txt are included below. The fifth line is where this log diverges from other successful gererations of ODB++ files for our other boards.

Something happened to my board file when my computer crashed due to a graphics card failure. After DB doctoring after the crash everything appeared to work fine; constraint manager was fine, all components imported worked fine, and gerber generation went off without a problem. However, now that I try to export an ODB++ file(s) the symbols folder within the ODB++ archive is empty and this is something our contract manufacturer needs. I tried the suggestion of changing the artwork to RS274X and decimal places but to no avail ( we use this format so I actually moved it away and back to the RS274X settings)
Did anyone ever get resolution on this? Right now I'm attempting to place-replicate an entire board design from the newer failing brd file to an older file that still generates ODB++ correctly but it's not fast or perfect and we've already lost some time due to this.
Thanks for any help

Sustainability Task Force Named by New GW President Knapp
E&EM Lead Professor Jonathan Deason was appointed to a GW Presidential Task Force on Sustainability formed by new GW President Steven Knapp in October 2007.
The task force is composed of students, faculty, and staff, and is charged with developing recommendations to enhance GW's academic initiatives in the areas of environmental stewardship and climate change as well as examining and recommending improvements in relevant University policies.
The task force will spend the academic year evaluating GW's existing academic and administrative programs and will develop recommendations addressing the following topics and areas: energy conservation, resource and waste management, sustainability awareness, research programs, learning/curricular opportunities, procurement policies, and service initiatives and partnerships. The task force expects to issue its report on June 1, 2008.
The presidential task force on sustainability complements the University's ongoing green initiatives. GW students currently participate in numerous student-led environmental organizations, such as Green GW and GW Net Impact, and GW's Class of 2007 created the Campus Green Fund to support various projects to help make the University more environmentally friendly and energy efficient.
In addition, GW is home to seven degree programs that promote environmental protection and sustainability. In addition to the Environment and Energy Management Program, these include the Environmental Law Program, the Environmental and Social Sustainability Program in the School of Business, the Environmental Studies Program in the Columbian School of Arts and Sciences, the Environmental and Occupational Health Program in the School of Public Health, the Environmental Engineering Program in the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, and the Science and Technology Policy Program in the Elliott School of International Affairs.
The recently approved Foggy Bottom Campus Plan: 2006-2025, which was the result of a two-year community-based planning process, sets forth an approach to future campus development that embodies sustainable design in construction, landscaping, and maintenance, transit-oriented development, and neighborhood planning principles. GW also is the first university in the District of Columbia to agree to a minimum Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) score of 16 points for all new construction.

The voice of women workers at the UN
Union women from around the world are preparing to attend the 60th session of the Commission on the Status of Women (UNCSW60), taking place at the United Nations Headquarters in New York from 14-24 March 2016.
PSI is an accredited organisation for the UN Commission on the Status of Women and will be participating with a delegation of 20 people from affiliated unions. Although a large part of our activities will take place during the first week, we are seeking to ensure representation throughout the entire UNCSW60, with delegates attending the entire event and others attending only part of it.
The priority theme for UNCSW60 will be: "Women's empowerment and its link to sustainable development". In preparation for the 60th session, UN Women will convene an expert group meeting (EGM) on this theme, from 1 to 4 November 2015, in New York. The session will also review the theme of the elimination and prevention of all forms of violence against women and girls, basing the discussion on the agreed conclusions from the 57th session.
The Global Unions have jointly prepared and submitted a Statement to the UNCSW60: Organising for Women's Social and Economic Empowerment by 2030
- One of the main reasons why women join trade unions is to take charge of their own social and economic empowerment by getting organised and bargaining collectively for decent work. 70 million women world-wide are represented in trade unions. Consequently, unions are key stakeholders and actors in ensuring all of the Sustainable Development Goals are met by 2030.
- Essential public services, including water, sanitation, health and education must be excluded from public/private partnerships, blended finance and trade agreements, as such initiatives impact most negatively on women's social rights. Tax justice and progressive taxation models can provide a solid alternative base for the public policies needed to achieve gender equality.
You will be able to follow the trade union delegation's activities on our Blog, Facebook, Twitter, Flickr and YouTube.
See the UNCSW60 website for more information on the session.

What have recent earnings releases from Coach (COH – $38.07) and Volcom (VLCM – $16.33) told investors regarding what to expect for the back half of the year?
We're of the belief that it's going to get ugly for the retail sector in the back half of the year. Simply, many top-line and bottom-line tailwinds that have mitigated downside or boosted profitability are now beginning to be anniversaried.
Let's take a look at the laundry list of top-line and bottom-line benefits over the past 12-18 months that will now expire and/or become headwinds for retailers over the next 12 months:
- The economy is not improving.
The short-lived top-line success that the retail sector experienced in February/March 2010 was a mirage. In the early part of 2009, the top-line was especially contracted due to "depression" level spending as even folks with a job thought they were going to lose it. Also, the large-scale liquidation sales sapped revenue away from the survivors a year ago.
- Product sourcing costs have increased and will only move higher over the next year. This, before we even begin to discuss the Chinese government's willingness to ease the Chinese Yuan's peg to the U.S. Dollar and the newly emboldened factory workers in China.
- Ocean freight rates have dramatically increased versus LY.
- DC-to-Store shipping costs have dramatically increased versus LY (i.e. higher gas prices).
- Materially lower inventory levels over the past year have led to record low levels of shrink. As inventory begins to build so will inventory shrinkage.
- Retailers are lapping record merchandise margin levels. Price wars are breaking-out in the mall (again, at a time when sourcing costs are under pressure). Retailers will be forced to "give-back" much of the merchandise margin improvement over the past year.
- Inventory purchase decisions for Holiday 2010 were made at a time when the economy at least 'appeared' to be heading in a positive direction (early-2010). Will retailers be stuck with too much inventory that will need to be heavily marked-down this year?
- Big picture, most retailers have materially increased their level of marketing spend. Since most retailers are doing the same, the incremental marketing investment is not achieving a reasonable level of ROI.
- Record low levels of employee turnover for the retail sector (i.e. the lack of job openings have 'forced' employees to stay put) has materially improved sales productivity (i.e. more seasoned sales associates are more productive).
- Retailers with stores overseas have benefited recently from a relatively weaker U.S. Dollar. No longer.
- There are no longer profitability-challenged stores to close or expenses to wring-out of the system.
With the above as a backdrop, let's take a look at two recent earnings releases (COH and VLCM). Both companies were up against relatively easy 2-year EBIT margin comparisons in the most recently reported quarter. Yet, both COH and VLCM reported EBIT margins that were weaker on a 3-year basis than the prior quarter (see tables below).
The problem is that profitability comparisons for 2H 2010 are much tougher to anniversary beginning in Q3 2010 (Q1 for COH as they have a June fiscal year end).
Were the earnings reports over the last week for COH and VLCM the proverbial canary in the coal mine?
We're of the belief that the retail sector is setting up for material downside earnings in 2H 2010 and FY 2011 versus the current consensus sell-side expectations.
The relatively disappointing profitability improvement (or, lack thereof at VLCM) in the latest quarter and the modest forward earnings expectations from COH and VLCM may be telling investors something about the back half of the year. Expect more disappointment beginning next week when large retailers begin discussing their top-line and bottom-line expectations for the second half of the fiscal year.
While you have to take a look at this on a company-by-company basis, look for many more disappointing outlooks in the next few weeks as retail earnings kicks into high gear.

Most age-related cataracts develop gradually. As a result, you may not notice signs or changes in your vision right away when cataracts first develop.
See a simulation of what vision with cataract looks like.
The only way to know for certain if you have cataracts is to have a dilated eye exam (where your pupil is widened with eye drops). Your ophthalmologist can detect early signs of cataract development by looking at your eye's lens.
Get a baseline exam at age 40 when early signs of disease and changes in vision may start to occur. Your ophthalmologist (Eye M.D.) will let you know how often you should return for follow-up exams. At any point, if you have symptoms or risks for eye disease, see your Eye M.D. Because your risk for cataracts and other eye diseases increases as you get older, starting at age 65 you should see your Eye M.D. every year. A complete eye examination will rule out any other condition that may be causing blurred vision or eye problems. Early detection and treatment of cataracts is critical to preserving sight.

Yeah, because when Cruz says things like tru!p wants to repeal the second amendment and expand obamacare, the host should just let those lies stand, right? Lol
Cruz gets challenged because he blatantly and patently distorts and outright lies about Trump's policies and positions.

Yeah Hannity. You have to be like Levin or Beck and be 100% pro Cruz or you're a phony. Don't you get it? Cruz is the announced one! I suggest you fast and ask for forgiveness.
If you jump on the Cruz train maybe some of these PACs and other money people will spread some cash your way like they have for Erickson, Beck, and Levin.

Trump does understand that out foreign policy over the last 10 years has been a complete disaster.
Being directly or indirectly involved in the removal of leaders in the Middle East has given us ISIS and put us in a position where our allies don't and won't trust us because we refuse to finish what we started and our enemies don't fear us for the same reason.
He understands that Obamas desire to blame America and his refusal to back up his red lines has given us a world where Russia is seen as strong and we are seen as weak.
He understands that the next president will only have one choice unless he/ she is willing to involve the USA in full blown conflict – to take a step back.

Because this video exists, the MSM probably won't touch this story.

Belligerence? Where? He didn't say anything belligerent.
They were pulled over for a seat belt violation. What reason did the police officer(s) have to harass and essentially detain the passenger?
If you actually read the entire story, he told the officers that he did not have his ID and gave them his name, birthdate, and address. Apparently that wasn't good enough though?
Cops don't have the right to harass this guy, you, me, or anyone else just because they feel like it.
It would be one thing if they had suspected that the guy committed a crime or was a wanted fugitive, but they just seemed intent on harassing him.

Yeah, because they don't deserve a few extras, right? I mean, the $18,000 starting salary is more than enough pay for a young man or woman to put their name on the dotted line, get shipped overseas, and fight for their country, right?
I mean, when they are in the desert, they are working 9-5 desk jobs in Air Conditioned offices, right? It's not like they are putting their lives on the line, right? Or spending months and/or years away from their families, right?
The nerve of these vets to actually expect the decent pay and retirement benefits that they were PROMISED, when Uncle Sams recruiters were telling them whatever they had to hear to sign up.
August 27, 2013 at 2:53pm
Yeah, definitely an over reaction. As a matter of fact, the whole week has been full of over reactions, hasn't it?
I mean, it's not like if a bunch of white kids harassed and assaulted a little black girl, filmed it, and then uploaded it to the internet with the title THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN BLACK PEOPLE MAKE WHITE PEOPLE MAD
If a white teenager posted to his facebook and twitter accounts how he hated black people and then killed one
That the left would think any of that was racist, right?
They would probably just say, kids will be kids, I'm sure.
August 27, 2013 at 2:38pm
How can you say that it had NOTHING to do with race when the title of the video was WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WHITE PEOPLE PISS BLACK PEOPLE OFF.
The entire title of the video has to do with race – Not only in it's words, but in it's tone and in the comments that were left under the video.

What crime was he suspected of having committed when the officers made contact with him?
If he wasn't committing a crime or wasn't suspected of committing a crime, the officers had no right to detain him anyway and he can look at them any way he wants to.
May 30, 2013 at 11:27am
Yeah, that quote is almost as crazy as the "Obamas" forgetting where Barracks homeland is when they said he "was going to his homeland" while describing an upcoming trip to Kenya. You would think the President and his wife would remember where he was born?
Or When Mr. Oblowme informed us that there were 57 states.
Or When he told us all he knew nothing about fast and furious right before he claimed Executive Priv.

I think we should cut him some slack on this one. From the angle that he was walking up to the copter, it doesn't even look like he noticed the salute, but as soon as he realized his "mistake" he got out of the copter and did his best to rectify it.
Not only that, but while it's become a tradition for the POTUS to salute, it isn't required.

The Batmobile is an upcoming documentary about the iconic car. Those lucky enough to be at Comic-Con get to see a 22-minute sneak peek of the documentary tonight. The rest of us can hope it eventually finds its way onto the internet.
The Avengers is out in the United States this weekend, and it's everything you'd want out of a superhero movie. Best of all, you finally get to see Nick Fury in action. Just don't see it in 3D if you can avoid it. As a post-production conversion, it adds absolutely nothing to the movie.
Do stay all the way through the credits, though. The scene in the middle of the credits is your typical Marvel teaser for the next movie, but the one all the way at the end (filmed after the premiere) is really something special.

Reviews for American Blues Theater
Truly a wonderful company. Their commitment goes above and beyond, for the art, the talent and the community.
ABT is a treasure! Their staff goes above and beyond to not only provide top quality performances, but create an experience for the community both on and off the stage.
American Blues Theater continues to excite and amaze me. It is an organization full of big hearts and big dreams. I cannot wait to see what's next!
I love the mission, art, and the people. Excellent organization!
American Blues Theater continues to produce excellent shows and do incredible work in Chicago. They treat each patron and donor as an individual rather than just a number. Such a wonderful place!
The Blues are talented, seasoned, passionate professionals. The only thing more satisfying than watching them work their theatrical magic is to help create the magic with them. Having been on both sides of the American Blues footlights on many occasions, I cannot say enough about this top-notch collection of artists, staff and board members, all of whom work tirelessly in seamless common purpose. The theatre is the better for American Blues being a part thereof.
ABT is the classic Chicago storefront theater. Always cast with local actors and designers, ABT continually produces intimate, visceral theatre that gets to the heart of America and what it means to live here.
Nothing but 5 stars!
I've never seen an ABT production that was less than exceptional.
However, what makes me love this theater is their outreach and service to their community; providing audio described and touch tour performances for the hearing and visually impaired and free arts and education program reaching 5th-10th grade students in the Chicago area plus so much more.
The ABT team is more than talented, they have huge hearts, they are a giving, crazy, fun and talented group of people!
A truly wonderful org that's on an amazing trajectory of growth!
With so many qualities to praise, I'll limit it to my 3 faves:
1) Throughout this group; Artists, Artistic leadership, Board, Staff, Technicians and Teachers, they're positive, hard working people with beautiful souls, dedicated to shared goals.
Those goals are:
2) Creation of truly excellent art which challenges, inspires and entertains a diverse audience in rich, profound ways.
3) Service to their community and audience, going well beyond the art they produce. They actually changes lives, for the better.
The upshot: They invaluably touch an increasing number of lives, consistently raising the quality of life and discourse in Chicago, as they grow.
I can't think of a better way to spend time, money and love.
Well...I've been affiliated with the company for a couple more years now and they continue to grow artistically, and infrastructurally while they expand their practical impact on other important not-for-profits. It really is an arts org in which I feel that my efforts make a difference.

I'm an actor. Over the years I'd seen several excellent shows at American Blues Theater (ABT), which put them on my list of exceptional companies that I'd like to work with.
However, I fell in love when I worked with them.
In addition to their standards of artistic excellence, which I'd already known to be at the highest levels, and their deep commitment to one another as people, they have a unique commitment to the city and to being an active positive influence on the world at large.
On a personal level, I've consistently worked toward making my daily impact on the world a positive one, and I've sought ways of maximizing that impact. In the process, I've learned that this can best be done in a community.
Which is why ABT blows my mind, they've created an environment where one can pursue art with a group of folks who share core values, which I happen to old very dear.
I periodically continue to work with ABT, as an actor however, I consistently volunteer for them, because it fulfills my soul to work in an artistic environment that's outwardly focused; striving with conviction to improve the world, whether it's in the service to individuals, families communities or other not for profits (local and national).
This company is a good fit for people who care about art and the larger well-being of their community and the world.
If you're thinking about supporting American Blues Theater, I encourage you to go for it.

I have had the pleasure of working with this company in various capacities since 2005. Their commitment to producing stellar art while making everyone feel included in the process can not be matched. I've always been made to feel "part of the family" since day one.

I just saw Collected Stories and had to come write another review. The show was amazing and the fact that they are also doing outreach combined with the production to help other non-profits blew me away.

Sandler and friends reunite for lazy, unfunny sequel
Despite being lambasted by critics, 2010's "Grown Ups" was an enormous hit, grossing $162 million domestically and another $109 million worldwide. It stands to reason that "Grown Ups 2" will do just as well — even though it's made for home viewing when you're flipping channels late at night and nothing else is on.
Once again, producer/co-writer/star Adam Sandler decided to gather all his friends and hang out for a few months — and get a major studio to pay for their get-together. Sometimes you wonder if they even knew (or cared) that cameras were rolling. »Read Full Article(4)

Jim DeVita paints portrait of Rothko in Forward Theater's 'Red'
Madison — Before becoming one of the last century's great artists, Mark Rothko thought hard about a career as an actor, and he habitually referred to his pictures as "dramas." In his Tony-winning "Red," John Logan brings that drama on stage.
Madison's Forward Theater has now brought "Red" to Wisconsin, where it opened Friday night under Laura Gordon's direction, in an 85-minute, intermission-free production featuring Jim DeVita as Rothko and Nate Burger as Ken, Rothko's young, fictionalized assistant. »Read Full Article(1)

MAC To the Beach Collection – Lustre Drops Review, Photos, & Swatches
Lustre Drops are like puff paints (the kind you'd use in crafts). They're tiny, but a little goes a long way. I like these mixed with moisturizer and used on shoulders and legs. They can be used on the face, though, and I like using it as a shimmered base for a blush or along the cheek bones.Read Full Review
MAC To the Beach Look: Humid, Shimmermoss, and "Sweet & Punchy"
MAC To the Beach Look: Humid, Shimmermoss, and "Sweet & Punchy"
If you've been collecting MAC for years, you and I both know that we own near-dupes of coming attractions, no matter how pretty the newest, shiniest thing may look. Since MAC To the Beach is out in the UK already, I thought I'd try a look using some of the products from the faux peek earlier this week. I used True Chartreuse as a base with Lucky Green eyeshadow layered over it to fake "Sweet & Punchy," so if you have your To the Beach goodies, try using that on the lid instead 🙂
You will need the following…
- Eyes: MAC Soft Ochre Paint Pot (neutral beige base), MAC True Chartreuse Pigment (matte chartreuse), MAC Water-Based Mixing Medium (glue-based adhesive), MAC Lucky Green Eyeshadow (yellowed, shimmery green), MAC Humid Eyeshadow (dark green), MAC Shimmermoss Eyeshadow (teal), MAC Nylon Eyeshadow (champagne gold highlighter), Make Up For Ever #7L Aqua Eyes Liner (electric blue), MAC Gorgeous Gold Eyeshadow (green-toned gold), MAC Plushlash Mascara (black)
- Face: Make Up For Ever HD Foundation (140), Laura Mercier Loose Setting Powder (translucent)
- Cheeks: MAC Sun Rush Lustre Drops (peach-gold liquid highlighter), MAC Hipness Blush (coral pink)
- Lips: MAC Thrills Lipstick (copper rose), MAC Sugar Overload Superglass (nude with flaky glitter)
- Brushes: 249 (flat, firm brush), 239 (fluffy shadow brush), 226 (fluffy crease brush), 219 (pointed crease brush), 116 (dense blush brush)
- Substitutes: Sun Rush = Strobe Cream (not a dupe, but similar); Hipness = Benefit Coralista; Thrills = Lane + Fetish; Sugar Overload = Bare Necessity
For eyes, start by applying Soft Ochre paint pot as your eyeshadow base all over the eye area with the 249. With the 239 and water-based mixing medium (or water), apply True Chartreuse pigment all over the lid area. Using the 239, apply Lucky Greeneyeshadow on the lower lid. Next, apply Humid eyeshadow into the crease with the 226, lightly blending outwards and upwards to fade to the brow bone. With the 239, apply Shimmermoss eyeshadow into the crease directly and then blended towards the outer corner and lid. Blend Nylon eyeshadow with the crease shade and highlight the brow bone. Bring everything together by applying #7L eyeliner on the lower lash line and Gorgeous Gold eyeshadow lightly patted below the lower lash line with the 219 brush. Finish by sweeping lashes with Plushlash mascara.
For cheeks, apply Sun Rush lustre drops on the apples and upper cheekbones. Then, apply Hipness blush to the apples of the cheeks and sweep upwards towards the temple with the 116.
For lips, apply Thrills lipstick first, and then layer Sugar Overload superglass for a complementing lip.

MAC to the Beach Sneak Peek…
I might not be able to give you a true-and-blue sneak peek, but here's a faux peek instead. MAC's To the Beach Collection includes several repromoted/permanent shades, and since I do own a few of those, here are photos and swatches of those products. Just to be clear, none of the products shown are in the limited edition packaging of the actual collection. I don't own Golden Bronzer or Rosemary & Thyme Eyeliner, but both of these are also permanent shades.Read Full Review

Borges interview collection a booklover's tip sheet
"I've always been a greater reader than a writer," says Jorge Luis Borges in "The Last Interview and Other Conversations." While devoted readers of the Argentinian writer may disagree, Borges (1899-1986) was one of the most bookish great writers of our age, an enthusiastic champion of other authors, from the obscure Thomas Browne to the towering Miguel de Cervantes.
Melville House has collected three interviews with Borges in this volume, the latest in a series that also includes Kurt Vonnegut, Roberto Bolaño, Jacques Derrida and David Foster Wallace. Both Borges fans and newbies will glean plenty of suggestions for reading, or rereading, from these talks.
"Borges the writer is, fundamentally, a reader," David Foster Wallace wrote in his 2004 review of a Borges biography. "The dense, obscure allusiveness of his fiction is not a tic, or even really a style; and it is no accident that his best stories are often fake essays, or reviews of fictitious books, or have texts at their plots' centers, or have as protagonists Homer or Dante or Averroes. Whether for seminal artistic reasons or neurotic personal ones or both, Borges collapses reader and writer into a new kind of aesthetic agent, one who makes stories out of stories, one for whom reading is essentially — consciously — a creative act."
Borges became widely known in the English-reading world after sharing the first Prix International in 1961 with Samuel Beckett. By then he had written the great, subversive stories that made his reputation, such as "Pierre Menard, Author of the Quixote," about the quixotic attempt of a contemporary writer to create Cervantes' masterpiece word for word; "Tlon, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius," in which an imaginary world begins to take over ours; "The Aleph," about a mysterious point through which the viewer can see everything in the world; and "Funes, His Memory" (sometimes translated as "Funes the Memorious"), about a man incapable of forgetting anything he sees.
Richard Burgin interviewed Borges at length when the writer came to lecture at Harvard. The longest and most engaging interview in this new collection is drawn from Burgin's 1968 book, "Conversations With Jorge Luis Borges."
When Burgin asks Borges if pleasure is the main purpose of literature, the writer responds, I think, with a qualified yes:
"I tell my students that if you begin a book, if at the end of fifteen or twenty pages you feel the book is a task for you, then lay that book and lay that author aside for a time because it won't do you any good. For example, one of my favorite authors is De Quincey. Well, as he's rather a slow-moving author, people somehow don't like him. So I say, well, if you don't like De Quincey then let him alone; my task is not to impose my likes or dislikes on you."
In discussing his story "The Zahir," about an ordinary coin whose image haunts the person who has seen it, Borges tells Burgin "I wrote that out of the word 'unforgettable,' inolvidable, because I read somewhere, 'You should hear so-and-so act or sing, he or she's unforgettable. And I thought, well what if there were really something unforgettable." (Yes, Borges' tales often have a touch of horror in them.)
This master writer digs into the differences between writing in English and in Spanish in the 1980 interview "Borges and I," conducted by Daniel Bourne, Stephen Cape and Charles Silver for the literary magazine Artful Dodge. When Cape asks if different languages offer different means of viewing the world, Borges responds:
"I don't think languages are essentially synonymous. In Spanish it is very difficult to make things flow, because words are over-long. But in English, you have light words. For example, if you say slowly, quickly, in English, what you hear is the meaningful part of the word: slow-ly, quick-ly. You hear slow and quick. But in Spanish you say lentamente, rápidamente, and what you hear is the -mente."
From a literary point of view, the last interview, conducted by Argentine radio journalist Gloria Lopez Lecube in 1985, is the slightest of the three. Described as a friend of the author, she talks with Borges about his blindness, insomnia, how many canes he has, who picks out his clothes and whether he still gets excited about awards. "Believe me: the benefits of blindness have been greatly exaggerated," he tells her. "If I could see, I would never leave the house, I'd stay indoors reading the many books that surround me."
If you're new to Borges, consider starting with "Ficciones" (Everyman's Library), an English volume that includes many of his finest mind-blowing stories, or "Labyrinths" (New Directions), a venerable paperback sampler. Or leap right into the impressive "Collected Fictions" (Penguin paperback).
I also recommend "Selected Non-Fictions" (Penguin paperback). Borges read widely in multiple languages, and wrote about books with the kind of insight and enthusiasm that will make you add to your reading list.
