About Mental Health Services in WA
Community based mental health services are located throughout the metropolitan area and in country locations. These providers have professional staff including psychiatrists, social workers, mental health nurses, clinical psychologists and occupational therapists to provide assessment, diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation and ongoing support.
Accessing Services
In many cases, the first step in accessing services for treatment of a mental health condition will be a consultation with a General Practitioner (GP). Before consulting a GP it's important to ask the receptionist to book a longer or double appointment, so there is plenty of time to discuss your situation without feeling rushed. It is also best to raise your concerns about your mental health problems early in the consultation. You don't need a referral from a GP or psychiatrist to see a psychologist. However, you'll need a Mental Health Treatment Plan from a GP to claim rebates through Medicare.
Your GP can:
listen to your concerns and make a diagnosis
check for any physical health problem or medication that may be contributing to a mental health condition such as depression or anxiety
discuss available treatment options
work with you to write a Mental Health Treatment Plan
provide brief counselling or in some cases, psychological therapy
prescribe medication as required
refer you to a mental health specialist, such as an allied health professional (psychologist, social worker or occupational therapist) or psychiatrist.
Community services / organisations, government and non-government agencies can refer people to mental health services. The referral can be completed by a social worker, psychiatrist, case worker or other service professional. In addition to this, family and friends can also refer you these services, or you can refer yourself.
Types of support available
There are many options for community-based mental health support. These include:
Psychologist services and counselling
residential mental health facilities
recreation programs
alcohol and drug counselling
relationship counselling and conflict resolution
Suicide prevention
Peer support programs
Trauma and grief treatments
What service providers can I access?
There are a number of service providers in WA, all providing varied mental health services and programs. Some programs will have eligibility criteria or you many need a referral from your GP or registered psychologist. Other programs can be accessed via self-referral or referral from family or friends.

10 Best Kids Smart Watches in 2019 [Buying Guide]
Being a parent, you've certainly got into the situation when your child's phone is dead, making you wonder where they are.
In a big city, a child can get lost, go out without permission, go with strangers, get injured, etc.
You never know what can happen. If it becomes discharged, the mobile phone can turn off. Even if it is on it can ring and not be heard by the child.
Fortunately, there is a solution to this problem – Smartwatch For Kids.
The best part?
All of them work GREAT in 2019.
The Best Smartwatches For Kids
Smartwatch always shows where the child is, thanks to a built-in GPS tracker. In addition, almost all models are equipped with an LTE module, so that parents can call their child at any time.
Also, a sensor notifies the parent as soon as the child takes off his watch. And, if something happens to the child, there is always a red button on the watch to signal his or her parents!
Impressive isn't it?
So, Let's take a look at the table that contains the main functions.
1. Kidaily – Best Cheap Smartwatch For Children

They have a compact body, a nice silicone strap, on one side of the watch the power button and the SOS button. Yes, your child can press it if something unpleasant happens, and you will receive a message about it.
On the other side, there is a micro USB connector. By the way, the developers claim that these watches are waterproof.
You can make calls and send voice messages, but you will have to purchase a SIM card yourself. It is inserted from the back of the watch.
Thanks to these watches the child is not bored. There is a camera for shooting video and photos, puzzles, math games, and other educational games and applications.
GPS location in this watch gives you the opportunity not only to know the child's permanent location but also to receive a message on your smartphone in case the child has left the safe zone that you have set up in the phone.
In conclusion, I will say that Kidaily Kids Smart Watch GPS is a combination of communication, security, and entertainment. Plus, all of this combined with a fairly small price. An excellent choice if you have a limited budget.

The company specializes in the creation of products of the category ELP (Electronic Learning Toys) and is a recognized world leader in the production of innovative educational products for children of all ages.

Its elastic silicone bracelet is comfortable for even a baby's wrist and a convenient clasp securely fixes the smartwatch in place.
I can't say that VTech Kidizoom is just a child's watch. It is rather a multipurpose device designed for children aged 4 to 9 years, with the ability to shoot photos and videos. A variety of different effects and filters give a child the opportunity to develop his or her creative abilities.
The main advantage of the VTech Kidizoom is its huge amount of games to suit each taste. Of course, you can download additional games according to their preference. In addition to the alarm watch, timer, and stopwatch, kids can use the calendar and calculator to help with simple calculations.
Since these watches are for kids, it would be advisable to include a GPS tracker, such as TickTalk 2.0, or an LTE module so that the child can contact parents at any time.
There is also no internet connection, which is another feature that most people want when choosing a smartwatch for their child.
Bottom line:
First of all, it is worth considering this model as a toy for a child or which will show him or her the world of gadgets and prepare for more advanced technologies in the future. So if you are looking for a good gift then this is a good choice.
Types of time display.
Ability to take photos and videos.
The availability of games.
High design and sturdy construction.
Calendar, calculator, stopwatch, timer, alarm watch.
Little built-in memory.
No child GPS tracking function.
3. DUIWOIM – Best For Child Safety
The Kids Smartwatch from DUIWOIM looks pretty ergonomic. A square casing, a front camera, and a connector for charging.
Everything about the design is very simple.
They are designed for children aged 4-12 years. These smartwatches can be a good gift for your child because it includes are fun learning games.
And the most important factor, DUIWOIM have GPS tracker and SOS button. I also want to note that they are waterproof (IP67 standard). Which is pretty nice for the child.

Looks pretty good, right?
Also, there is the possibility of using a memory card.
You can choose between blue for the boy or pink for the girl.
But, there is a disadvantage.
The quality of the camera leaves much to be desired, but on the other hand, it's a smartwatch for kids.
This smartwatch is an excellent choice if you want to combine your child's safety and be sure he will be interested in this device.
GPS and SOS button.
A great selection of games.
Ability to use a memory card.
Affordable price.
4. Owl Cole – Modern With Lots Of Features
Owl Cole Watch is one of the brands of children's watches: they have all the necessary functions, and the cost is not very high.
It is convenient to insert the SIM-card. Make sure not to remove the bottom cover, since the slot is located on the side. There is a vibration alert for the child to hear exactly when the parents try to reach him.
Now about functions.
When removed from the hand the watch immediately signals to the parent phone. If you set the "restricted zone" on the map in the application, then when you leave the zone the smartphone, too, will receive a message. You can listen to everything that happens next to the watch, and the child is also able to send voice messages to the list of numbers stored in memory.
Also, the watch counts calories and steps, and there is a training game.
The watch does not include a SIM card and you have to buy it yourself, and you need to keep in mind that the watch supports only 2G communication. You can independently check the coverage of 2G near your house.
Owl Cole Smart Watches for Kids are recommended for children from 4 to 12 years old and support work with iOS and Android devices. To implement all the functions on the parent smartphone, you need to install the SeTracker 2 application.
A lot of useful features.
Watch is water resistant.
Supports only 2G.
High casing.
5. Kurio – Affordable Watch For Kids
The main niche of KD Interactive is electronic products for children. In 2012, they released a successful series of products called Kurio. These smart watches belong to this series.
The watches are distinguished by the presence of a large number of games and various applications. There are really a lot of them, more than 20 pieces.
There are games for two players, and also thanks to the motion sensor, there is an opportunity to play mobile games.
The front camera will help the child to try himself as a registrar, and a large number of applications such as an alarm watch, a calculator, an activity tracker can be used to improve productivity.
Calls and messages are sent only via Bluetooth. That is, if the child leaves the zone of action, you cannot contact him. The location cannot be determined either since there is no GPS tracker.
Summing up, you can say that this watch will be a good gift for your child, he will definitely love it, but you will not be able to control his movement.
The choice is yours.
A lot of games and applications.
Ability to send multimedia files via Bluetooth.
Ability to use a memory card.

There is no location detection.
6. ABARDEEN – Budget-Friendly With Good Features
This product of the famous manufacturer of smart watches for children ABARDEEN features a cute and very childlike design with a plastic dial in pink, blue or green colors.
The connector for the SIM card is traditionally inserted in the back of the watch case. There is also an SOS button, two control buttons, and a charging connector.
From a technical point of view, everything is in place: the watch is able to track the coordinates of the child, there is Bluetooth for communicating with the smartphone, you can create and monitor secure zones, there is support for voice messages.
In an application on the phone, the parent can watch the movements of the child, and view a weekly archive of their activity.
When you press the SOS button, the parents are sent not only the coordinates of the child but also an audio recording of what is happening around the child, which will help to understand whether the child accidentally pressed the button or something really happened.
In principle, this is an inexpensive watch. I can just say that there are the best, but look at the characteristics and reviews. Maybe they will suit you and your child will be happy.
You can set up to 60 contacts.
Well used for calls.
Can be a problem with locating.
Instruction can be complex.
Work only with 2G SIM cards.
7. LG Child – Best Quality
These smart watches are designed by LG, which needs no introduction. It is not hard to guess that the quality here is at the proper level.
The watch itself is compact and the number is very simple. No buttons, a micro USB connector is on the back cover. Here we meet the first drawback – the lack of an SOS button, but your child can always call you.
The main advantage here is the location. It is relatively accurate, but in view of the features of GPS, it works best in open space.
You can only make calls, but you can record no more than 4 subscribers. It is worth noting that this watch only supports the mobile operator Verizon is and offered to subscribers for $5 per month.
Despite the lack of games and other applications, these watches will appeal to parents who do not want their children to be distracted by their gadget during lessons, everything is kept to a minimum.
There can be only one conclusion. LG clearly did not live up to its reputation. Yes, the design is good, but these watches are clearly not designed for children. Rather, they are designed for parents who want to follow their child. However, it's really the best smartwatch for teenager.
A very accurate location.
Long battery life.
No games.
Works only with Verzion.
No SOS buttons.
Does not show time.
8. iCooLive – Waterproof With GPS
This is a novelty in the market of smart children's watches from the company iCooLive. By design, this watch is a bit like the Apple Watch for kids, so that it can attract a child.
The model is presented in 2 colors: blue and pink.
These watches have many advantages, one of them being that they are waterproof. So you do not have to worry if the children wet them or go swimming with them.
Parents can also set up a mode in which the watch applications will be unavailable at certain times, for example at school, so that children are not distracted.
And if you suddenly want to know that your child is at school, the watch has a built-in camera. So you can make a video call anytime and see for yourself.
In the kit with the watch, there is a SIM card, Speedtalk. I note that the watch does not support operators such as Sprint, Verizon, or AT&T.
Summing up, I want to say that this watch has everything you need for your child, from calls and voice messages to interesting educational games. And it is worth noting its water resistance. So if your child is engaged in swimming, this is what you need.
The gift of SIM Card for Speedtalk.
Responsive technical support.
Supports only 2G network.
Supports only Speedtalk.
9. GBD – Cheap and Simple
Looking for a cheaper option? Then the smart watch for children from the Chinese company GBD is for you.
They have all the necessary functions: positioning, SOS button, various games and applications, the ability to configure the movement restriction zone, camera and even a flashlight.
Also, in this watch, there is something interesting. Parents can set the application lock for a specific time. For example, while the child is at school, so as not to be distracted from the lessons.
When purchasing these smartwatches, the SIM card is not supplied; you have to buy it separately. The watch supports only 2G SIM cards, so make sure before buying it. Also, there may be problems with the T-Mobile Starter Kit SIM Card, so I recommend taking the SpeedTalk Mobile Card.
Small difficulties with the choice of a SIM card is certainly a minus, but you can solve it by contacting your telecom operator. But the obsolete operating system, unfortunately, can only be remedied by GBD developers in the next generations of smartwatches.
As a result, I can say that this watch is suitable for children of 3-7 years, but they will be uninteresting to older ones.
Good charging.
Ability to lock functions for a specific time.
For the small child.
Only use military time.
Old operative system.
10. TickTalk 2.0 – Best Navigation System
TickTalk specializes in smartwatches for children. They use the latest technology and are constantly improving their products.
So in TickTalk 2.0 a new function "Things To Do" was added. Now your child's day will be planned, which means that education and upbringing will be more effective. You can list up to 50 things to do.
There is an opportunity to have a connection with the child, as it is possible to make phone calls, SMS, and even voice messages.
You can add up to 13 contacts to the watch, and if you turn on the built-in firewall, only people on the contact list will be able to call him.
Design, In my opinion, of this smartwatch for 12 year old or more.
The company makes the major task of the phone finding the child's location and the child's safety. Therefore, the GPS system is simply excellent. Not to mention the SOS button, a smart app for a smartphone, through which you can easily track the movement of the child.
In my opinion, these watches have only one drawback. This is their price. But believe me, they are worth it.
And remember, do not skimp on the child's safety.
To summarize, I want to note that this is one of the best offers on the market. There is nothing superfluous, everything is simple and convenient. This watch includes all your and your child's needs and even more.
Simple interface.
There are many useful functions.
Supplied with SpeedTalk SIM Card.
Best Smartwatch For Kids – Buying Guide
So, you just read about the 10 best smartwatches for kids in 2019.
But many people are wondering what to look for when you choose a product.
And so we offer you a buyer's guide. After reading it you will find it easier to find a solution.
Let's take a closer look.
Area of action
Like a mobile phone, the watch works in the area of the operator who issued a SIM card. New models of watches are equipped with a touchscreen and GPS / GSM-module with refined positioning on Wi-Fi. This allows you to find children in places with poor GPS reception.
In addition to locating the watch, the watch has the function "Safety Zone": when the child leaves the pre-defined zone, the watch sends an alert to the parents.
Remote Voice Monitor
Some models of smart watches have the ability to listen to the sound from microphones, and sometimes even have a camera–when you get anxiety from your phone you can hear and see what is happening with the child at the moment.
Call and SMS
You can call the child on the watch – they are equipped with a microphone and a speaker. In addition, you can exchange short voice messages, as in popular instant messengers, and in case of danger, send a signal with the SOS button.
Not all watches have this capability. If you need it, you should pay attention to it. As a rule, smart watches with games and good multimedia do not have this capability.
If you want to make your child a smartwatch gift as a toy and you are not bothered by questions about his whereabouts, then you can choose smart watches with different multimedia and different games. There may also be fitness functions: a pedometer, a heart rate monitor and sleep monitoring.
If it is necessary for the safety of children, then it is necessary to choose a watch with GPS-tracker and the ability to make calls.
I hope that this guide helped you choose a smartwatch for your kid and you will be reassured by it.
Share your opinion in the comments–why did you decide to buy a smart watch for your child? Which ones did you eventually buy and are you satisfied with?

Definition of Argumentative Essay
An argumentative essay is a form of essay that shows arguments about both sides of a problem. Maybe both sides are presented similarly balanced, or it could be that one part is presented more forcefully compared to other. All of it varies according to the writer, and exactly what side he supports the most. The typical framework of an argumentative essay follows this format:
- Introduction: Attention Grabber / hook, Background Information, Thesis Statement
- Body: Three human anatomy paragraphs (three major arguments)
- Counterargument: a quarrel to refute early in the day arguments and give fat toward actual position
- Conclusion: Rephrasing the thesis declaration, major points, call to attention, or concluding remarks.
Models for Argumentative Essays
There are a couple of major models besides this structure given above, which is called a classical model. Two other models would be the Toulmin and Rogerian models.
Toulmin model is composed of an introduction with a claim or thesis, followed by presentation of information to guide the claim. Warrants are then listed for the reasons to support the claim with backing and rebuttals. However, the Rogerian model asks to weigh two options, lists strengths and weaknesses of both choices, and gives a recommendation after an analysis.
Examples of Argumentative Essay in Literature
Example #1:Put some Science in Your Life (by Brian Greene)
"As soon as we think about the ubiquity of cellphones, iPods, computers plus the Internet, it's easy to understand how technology (and the technology to which it leads) is woven in to the fabric of our day-to-day activities. When we reap the benefits of CT scanners, M.R.I. products, pacemakers and arterial stents, we are able to immediately appreciate just how technology impacts the standard of our life. When we measure the state of the world, and recognize looming challenges like climate modification, international pandemics, protection threats and diminishing resources, we don't hesitate in embracing science to gauge the issues and find solutions.
And when we look at the wealth of opportunities hovering regarding the horizon—stem cells, genomic sequencing, personalized medication, longevity research, nanoscience, brain-machine interface, quantum computers, space technology—we realize just how crucial it's to cultivate a broad public that will build relationships scientific issues; there's simply no other way that as a culture I will be ready to make informed decisions on a selection of problems that will contour the long run."
Those two paragraphs present a quarrel about two scientific industries — electronic services and products and biotechnology. It has also given full supporting details with names.
Example # 2: men Here, Girls Here: Sure, If Equality's the Goal (by Karen Stabiner)
"The first objections a week ago originated from the National Organization for Women while the nyc Civil Liberties Union, both which opposed the opening of TYWLS in the fall of 1996. The 2 groups still insist—as though it were 1896 plus they had been arguing Plessy v. Ferguson—that individual can never be equal. I appreciate NOW's wariness of this Bush management's endorsement of single-sex public schools, since I have have always been of this generation that nevertheless considers the label "feminist" become a compliment—and many feminists still worry that any public acknowledgment of differences between the sexes will hinder their fight for equality."
This paragraph by Karen Stabiner gift suggestions an objection toward argument of separation between general public schools. It has been fully supported with evidences regarding the court situation.
Example # 3: The trip off discussion (by Sherry Turkle)
"We've become accustomed to a brand new means of being "alone together." Technology-enabled, we're able to be collectively, and also elsewhere, attached to wherever we want to be. We want to customize our everyday lives. You want to move in and away from where we're as the thing we value many is control of in which we concentrate our attention. We've gotten always the notion of being in a tribe of 1, loyal to the own party."
This is certainly an argument by Sherry Turkle, beautifully presented it in the 1st person plural dialogues. But is obvious that is element of a greater argument instead of the essay.
Purpose of Argumentative Essay
An argumentative essay presents both sides of a problem. However, it gift suggestions one part more positively or meticulously than the other one, to ensure readers could possibly be swayed to your one the author intends. The major function of this type of essays is to provide an incident prior to the readers in a convincing way, showing them the complete image.

It�s no surprise that Sandra L. Lynch will be sworn in next month as the first female chief judge of the 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. She has a history of breaking ground for women.
For starters, she was the first, and is still the only, woman to serve on the 1st Circuit appeals court.
Before that she was the first woman to chair the Litigation Department of the Boston law firm of Foley, Hoag & Eliot, where she also was a partner. And she was the first woman to serve as a law clerk in the U.S. District Court in Rhode Island.
Her elevation comes at a time when women are serving as speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives and as president of the Massachusetts Senate, and when there have already been 10 women who have served or continue to serve as chief judges in other U.S. circuit courts. And, of course, Hillary Rodham Clinton has come close to becoming the first woman nominated as the presidential candidate of a major American political party.
Replacing Michael Boudin, whose seven-year term as chief judge is expiring, Judge Lynch will hold the job by virtue of seniority.
�I think it is a good thing for society that women are now senior enough to be given positions of responsibility where the selection criterion is seniority,� she said.
While the general public may not pay much attention to the appeals court, which stands between the U.S. District Courts and the U.S. Supreme Court, judges and lawyers give close scrutiny to it. The appeals court �makes law� for all of the cases appealed to it, except the 5 percent accepted by the U.S. Supreme Court, and that includes most of the criminal cases that defendants lose in the district court, Judge Lynch said.
The court�s importance can be seen in most of the motions filed in the district court, which make multiple references to previous decisions of the circuit court to argue a particular interpretation of the law.
As chief judge, Judge Lynch will serve as executive officer of both the 1st Circuit Court of Appeals and the Judicial Council of the First Circuit. The latter body makes management decisions � including budgetary, staff, physical space and discipline � for the judges of the appeals court, district courts and bankruptcy courts in the circuit.
She will also represent the circuit, which comprises Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Puerto Rico, in the twice-yearly meetings of the Judicial Conference of the United States, the judiciary�s national policymaking body. Those duties will mean a reduction in her caseload, which now involves participation in 800 to 900 cases a year, writing 70 to 80 full opinions and writing concurring or dissenting opinions and short opinions on lesser matters.
The appeals court has primary jurisdiction over appeals of federal regulatory agency decisions. But the nature of those cases has changed over the years: fewer National Labor Relations cases than in the 1950s, for example, and more immigration and nuclear energy cases, Judge Lynch said.
The total number of appeals begun to the court�s five active and three senior part-time judges has risen only 1 percent from fiscal 2003 to 2007 to 1,863. But regulatory appeals are consuming more and more of the appeals court docket: 153 cases in fiscal 2003, rising 56 percent to 239 cases in 2007. Criminal appeals also rose in that period from 672 to 729.
Like everyone else, the 1st Circuit also has to come to grips with nettlesome privacy issues that technology raises, not just in the world around the court but inside the court itself. While appeals court opinions already are online, the court is moving to have all filings on the Web in the next calendar year.
But when it becomes that easy to get information, the court has to struggle with what to do about sensitive information � the address of a battered woman who moved to avoid her husband, for example � that used to be buried in the bureaucratic maze of a courthouse. Judging by the success of the 61-year-old native of Oak Park, Ill., since her graduation from Boston University Law School in 1971, those are tools she knows how to use.
Judge Lynch cited Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, who sponsored her nomination to the appeals court to President Clinton, as a role model in working with people who may not agree with one another to come to agreement and get things done. In 1995, she took the appeals court seat vacated by Chief Judge Stephen G. Breyer, who left for the U.S. Supreme Court.

A satirical cartoonist and a polemicist at heart, Ad Reinhardt was one of the major American artists of his day. In his many writings, he took a strong position against gestural painting and in favor of "pure art." He tended increasingly in his output to extreme simplification in form and color, culminating in his series of "black" or "ultimate" paintings. "I am quite simply making the last paintings anyone could make," Reinhardt announced about these black-on-black nearly identical square paintings that reveal to the attentive eye a cross structure on the verge of imperceptibility. By his radical declarations on formal purity and his palette reduced to a single color, Reinhardt became a key figure for minimal and conceptual artists of the 1960s and 1970s.
Reinhardt's prints raise issues of authorship, authenticity, and politics in ways that appear neither in his paintings nor in his cartoons and writings. 10 Screenprints by Ad Reinhardt predominantly features rectangular or square compositions of blue, purple, indigo, and dark gray in checkerboard, I-beam, or T-beam patterns. The first and last silkscreens in this portfolio directly relate to Reinhardt's black paintings, but the chromatic and compositional varieties in the remaining silkscreens expanded the format and palette of the black square motif, and recall his 1950s paintings in brighter hues.
Reinhardt was a political activist. No War, his contribution to the portfolio Artists and Writers Protest Against the War in Viet Nam, is notable for the use of a quotidian, mass-produced object to drive home an overt political message. Each impression is printed on two individual, pre-stamped postcards—one mounted to show its plain, verso side, and the other, the recto, with its striped border and stamp, addressed to "War Chief, Washington, D.C., U.S.A." Written in Reinhardt's calligraphic script, the conceptual and visual potency of No War is delivered by repetition to a point where language begins to resemble form.


text: Uncategorized The Talks September 8, 2019 Is it weird that I jot down random things that my kids would say to me? Or any kind of precious conversations I would hear from them? Call me crazy, but I thought some are hilarious or just so preciously sweet that I love to share it with my friends and family on my Facebook page. I always thought that writing things down is a great idea.. I felt the need for it, especially when my first born started talking. It was a very emotional time for the both of us, because I waited so long for him to speak.… Continue Reading

Now it's the challahs "turn" to get into the Chanukah action!! Following a few simple steps you can create a cutom made dreidel shaped challah.
This rice crispy treat-surely cannot be beat!
Using the classic rice crispy recipe as your base, decorate with a variety of sweets and treats.
The perfect family delight for any Chanukah night.
A few years ago I posted a craft idea on my blog. It describes using colorful twizzlers as edible perler beads to create colorful and edible works of art. After receiving a lot of positive feedback from my followers, I was invited to post a Chanukah version of the edible perler craft on www.kosher.com.
For all of you looking for a fun activity to do with your family over Chanukah, this one appeals to kids (and adults) of all ages.
My philosophy is that every celebration should include interesting and memorable details. This however, does not mean it has to be complicated, or expensive. Often, the most memorable party favor, table décor, or original presentation, is by taking regular household items and transforming them into an unforgettable memento that will remain with the guests long after the party is over. A couple of years ago, I did a Chanukah party setup for Mishpacha Magazine. Included in it was the following idea for Chanukah themed napkin rings. All it is, is pennies… but the décor, is priceless

I'm Erik and I am trying to make a railgun abridged series I have all the voice actresses I need but my Kuroko backed out due to personal issues, so I need a new person to voice her. A description of the characrter is below.
Kuroko is pretty crazy and very disconnected from reality so she gets exicted and loud for a lot of her lines, but if she isn't yelling she is usally very calm, but says a lot of weird and dark thing, but thinks they are completely ordinary. Comedic timing/Tone is very important for this role, so I may ask you to redo lines that would sound funnier if recorded differently.
(excited) But to fight the holy war you'll need the energy
The only man that touches me is my priest
is this not the Bible?

Jim Rogers, best remembered as a mysterious political candidate who had unlikely successes, died on Tuesday at the age of 79 in Durant, Oklahoma.
According to his obituary on the Brown's Funeral Service website, Rogers was a professor who taught at universities, community colleges, and high schools throughout Oklahoma, Kansas, and Wyoming. He specialized in Chemistry, Engineering, Mathematics, and Physics. The obituary makes no mention of Rogers's numerous political campaigns.
Rogers's politics can best be described as eccentric. During his 2008 presidential run, Rogers reported to the Federal Election Commission that leaf blowers were being used against him to sabotage his campaign. Nevertheless, he also achieved a modicum of success. In 2010, he won the Democratic Party's nomination for U.S. Senate, falling to incumbent Tom Coburn in the general election. Two years later, he entered the Oklahoma Democratic Party Presidential Primary and placed third, winning several delegates to the National Convention that were never seated. In his final campaign this year, Rogers again ran for Senate as a Democrat, forcing the eventual nominee Constance Johnson into a runoff, which Rogers lost.
Rogers's cause of death is not known at this time. However, according to a November 8 post on the talk page of his Wikipedia article, Rogers recently broke his hip and entered a nursing home. That information has yet to be corroborated.
The funeral for Rogers will be held tomorrow in Atoka, Oklahoma. The burial will occur at Atoka's Green Meadows Cemetery.

The Value Of Music In My Life
Eddie Van Halen supplies music for the film, "The Wild Life", an unofficial sequel to "Quick Occasions At Ridgmont Excessive" that stars Sean Penn's youthful brother Chris. Located in Tribeca since 1990, we are an arts heart where students of all ages share artwork and music experiences collectively. Couple this with the music heritage of the Freedman Excessive Faculty Band, and the result's an innovative, but unpretentious music culture that can be skilled through our numerous Downtown festivals and stay music events. Lesson Program – Teaching over 1.5 million classes per year, Music & Arts is the biggest private lesson supplier within the nation.
The outcome was a sound that did not sit well with longtime fans who felt the band had "offered out". Over a number of millennia, musical devices from regional indigenous traditions as well as from India and Central and West Asia had been assimilated into the mainstream of Chinese language music. Plus, you may obtain alerts about sales, Music & Arts coupon codes, and more in your inbox.
I've always performed the piano this way (since I used to be 4) and I would not have it another approach as a result of its made me delicate to music – the melody, the beats, the volume and tempo of songs. Although launched the year prior, "More Than Phrases", an acoustic ballad by the heavy metal band Excessive, lands at #1 on the U.S. charts. Produced from the wing bones of purple-topped cranes, these remarkable Neolithic finish-blown flutes, the world's oldest playable devices, are witnesses to a dynamic musical custom that was astonishingly refined both acoustically and musically.
Working for Music & Arts was a ardour for me since I'm a musician. This course introduces music students to the basic principles of enjoying brass devices and prepares potential teachers to work with beginning brass players. Ashleigh and Barrett Pepper opened Pepper's College of Music and Artwork as a method to make music and art more accessible to students on the North aspect of San Antonio.
For Adults and Children we provide Singing Lessons , Guitar , Ukulele , Piano , Violin, Viola , Musical Theatre (four-eight yrs) and Intro to Piano Our instructors are professionals of their discipline and sophistication size is small, permitting particular person consideration and steerage. A transparent instance would be to ballot 200 folks in the metropolis between the ages of 15 and 20 and ask them what their high five favourite songs had been.

BoJack Horseman gets away with a lot. As a character, Will Arnett's perfectly performed anthropomorphic horse-man is a stand-in for a rich, privileged White man who was once a part of the Hollywood elite and has since fallen on relatively hard times. Much like the contemporary face of the patriarchy he represents, BoJack is rarely forced to face his demons, and even when he is, there's always an out. As a show, the animated Netflix series hides its disdain with accepted sociocultural norms in plain sight, masked only by the fact that its characters are mostly funny-looking animorphs. It's this thin veneer that allows BoJack Horseman to tackle some of today's touchiest, most taboo subjects with an earnestness that live-action shows rarely even acknowledge.
It's not as if Seasons 1 through 4 of the Emmy-nominated creation of Raphael Bob-Waksberg were candy-coated sitcom stories about a washed-up TV star. It has been, and likely always will be, a show about a spectrum of broken people who are all struggling to overcome their own inadequacies in myriad ways. Once BoJack found its feet in a rough start to Season 1, that first batch of episodes served to show how far the title character had fallen, and laid the groundwork for even greater falls yet to come. Over the years, we've seen BoJack burn bridges with just about everyone in his life, attempting to rebuild some of them, being found in a compromising position with an underage teen, having a hand in the unintentional drug-related death of his former sitcom daughter, and learning some truly disturbing Horseman family secrets. So while few if any sitcoms deal with sexual assault, family power dynamics, and the curse of celebrity in any meaningful way, BoJack Horseman not only embraces such themes, it forces its star to confront the ramifications of his behavior years later.
Season 5 is less about the rehabilitation of BoJack and more about the fact that he easily slides back into old habits as soon as he finds a modicum of success; he's also reluctant to face past transgressions even when they're put right in front of his face or are paraded out in plain sight for TV viewers and critics of his new sitcom. For most of the season, he refuses to come clean about the sins of his past–both known and unknown to those closest to him, like Diane–until they're thrust out into the open against his will. It's only then that BoJack issues a mea culpa for things like his painkiller addiction, going on a drug-induced trip that alters his perception, and nearly strangling a co-star to death. What's amazing is that, even as BoJack Horseman skewers entertainment media and celebrity culture through thinly veiled approximations of real-world behavior, BoJack the character is blind to his own complicity in it.
In a chat with Vanity Fair, Bob-Waksberg called Season 5 "our most meta season—which is really saying something for this show." When asked if they had been building toward something like the #MeToo movement or whether it was just coincidental timing, he revealed that "there's some architecture we've been doing in the show for the last four years that kind of dovetails into some of the conversations we're having now as a society." Watch the show long enough and you start to question just when and how it shifts from being a comedy (really it's only Todd's antics holding this thread now; even his sex robot rising through the ranks of Corporate America rings too true) and moves towards a dark yet earnest drama. And much like Bryan Cranston's infamous character Walter White, you start to question how you feel about BoJack himself. As Bob-Waksbeg asked, "How do we view this character in light of how we view this kind of guy now?"
The show's meta conversations about how much responsibility a fictional program and its creative team have for its audience's interpretation of the story was pulled directly from BoJack's own writers' room. This multi-faceted discussion is a thorny one, a nuanced examination of culture and its societal mirror that has been reduced to extremes thanks to social media and knee-jerk reactions that go from zero to 100 as fast as a synapse can fire. Hopefully BoJack's own meta series "Philbert" and the comments made by its own stars and writers inspire more discussions and civilized conversations in the real world.
Outside of social commentary, of which this review barely scratches the surface, there's much more incredible character development on display from the supporting cast in this season. Diane, whose racial make-up and voice actor Alison Brie don't match (something Bob-Waksberg also addressed recently), goes on an around-the-world journey of self-discovery and remains as idealistic as ever, but even the moral anchor of BoJack Horseman is human; her own emotional failings make her just as hypocritical as those she holds the moral high ground over. (She also suffers the slings and arrows of working as a blogger in the 24/7 online media world, something near and not-so-dear to my heart.) Princess Carolyn (Amy Sedaris) continues her soul-crushing attempts to adopt and raise a child while managing production of the show's problematic meta drama series, "Philbert"; she, at least, gets a happy ending. And the ever-positive Mr. Peanutbutter (Paul F. Tompkins, who you can't help but love) comes to the devastating realization that he needs to grow up if he ever wants to be a part of a truly committed relationship. However, Todd (Aaron Paul) gets to live on Easy Street this season, and his antics are the main reason this show isn't dragged down by its own ambitious and darkly dramatic nature.
Standouts include the time-tripping Halloween episode "Mr. Peanutbutter's Boos", a sort of alt-version of the cast of characters in "INT. SUB", and "Free Churro", an Arnett-only episode that proves just how good an actor he really is. Honestly, if you never watch another episode of BoJack Horseman, make it this one; it not only capitalizes on just how likable Arnett can be even when delivering awful sentiments but it also shows off his range and capability for nuance. (As a fun fact, I too once mistakenly crashed a funeral. The directions to my grandfather's service got mixed up, so I learned from a small gathering of strangers that this funeral was, in fact, for an infant. Maybe that's a not-so-fun fact, but it's certainly in keeping with the spirit of BoJack Horseman; at least I didn't give a 30-minute eulogy before figuring it out.)
It's easy to recommend jumping into BoJack Horseman this late in the game as long as you're willing to go back to the beginning and struggle through the first few episodes to the point where the creative team finds their footing. It's hard to say just where this animated adventure exploring the depths of the human/horseman soul will ultimately end up, but the journey is well worth the effort.

It is official: I need my own skates like yesterday! The rentals available at the skating rink are just not cutting it anymore. They are subpar and limiting my roller derby success. I can't be bothered! Interesting how all of this is coming from a person who couldn't skate about a month ago.
Once upon a time, well actually just last week, I thought rentals were sufficient. I knew I needed to get my own skates. My theory was I needed to learn how to actually skate first before dropping a stack on the official gear. Sure several Alachua County Rollers mentioned how craptastic the rentals are, but I didn't really understand. Then I tried on the real deal.
My new play cousin, Gabby – deemed so because this Roll Bouncesque skater man thought we were related – and I went skating Wednesday night. The night started off with me slowly easing into my grandma skating. I always have to warm up, for at least five hours, before I feel semi-comfortable on skates. Mainly it's because there is an epic battle between the rentals and my body. Right now I think the rentals are winning. Fellow Hunny Nikki Tikki Tavi was already out skating and looking like poetry in motion. She saw my struggles and came over with several pointers. It helped, but one can only do so much with faulty equipment. So she let me to try on her skates. According to the ACR website she wears Riedell 265 boots.
I was scared to death to put them on. What if I broke them? What if they broke me? Why am I broke? At first a new epic struggle began with getting my foot into the skates. I have big, fat feet because I am the Queen of Stompingham. My father used to say if I kept walking around barefoot I would get big feet. Maybe I should have listened. We finally squeeze my feet into the skates without cutting them off. Nikki had me take a lap around the rink in them. It was like a whole new world opened up. My skating skills are still fairly non-existent, but for once I didn't have to struggle with the floor. And I was going fast; faster than ever. I didn't even fall. It was as if the skates had a mind of their own and were leading me around the rink. The skates were so smooth that I began to floating on wheels. I became a skating angel (one without wings or a halo, but I'm working on it).
When I took the Riedell's off and switched to the rentals, it was back to reality. Oh what a harsh world it is with rentals. I proceeded to try to go slightly as fast as before. It was not happening. Before long, I was taking several nasty falls. The rink staff came to check on me not once, but twice, after two particular falls. Then Roll Bounce dude came to help me up after one tumble. Finally my play cousin became concerned following another fall. I was fine after each fall. The only thing I hurt the entire night was my pride.
I am too through with rentals, well at least until I get paid next month. Or I could speed the process up if people wanted to donate to the Toni Needs Skates Foundation. We are a for-profit organization that exists for one purpose, to get me skates. Sure it's not tax deductible, but you will have helped save a life, namely mine.

i've seen them roaming through at night....
and at dawn...
circling the pond thinking about fishing...
with their beady eyes and ringed tails...
but this morning i think i saw them disappear under the deck...
yes, i may have terrists living in my yard
hey mel - come chase them away for me

While I'm Waiting to do something productive and as we all watch LiLo perform the toilet death-spiral of her nascent career...
I finished watching Kar Wai Wong's 2046 the other night... one of the best pieces of cinema I've seen in years. Spectacular. I never knew where it was going and it tore me up. Zhāng Zǐyí is an actress... damn...
Watched The Departed afterwards... probably a mistake - since it felt like a poor imitation of a hong kong police action drama (of course, there's a good reason for that). Ok fine - it might well be better than the original 'Infernal Affairs' (which i havent seen) - but after seeing 2046 I couldn't help but feel I was watching a knockoff. A screenplay that hollywood loved, but to me felt piled high with caricatures and mediocre performances (sorry, but Nicholson just felt like The Joker sans makeup). Then again - maybe it's Wong's fault for making such a good film.
Followed that up with a couple truly crappy films... as i'm running out of things in my queue that are worth watching. Not that that bothers me all that much - i've found a couple really really good series of fansubbed anime that have taken up the slack. (Yes, I'm embracing my inner geek... but some of this stuff has just gotten REALLY good). Kanon requires some patience and a willingness to get past the big-eyed style - but man when the hooks sink you're screwed. Shakugan no Shana was fun too in a far cheesier and less adult sort of way, as are a number of the Spring season releases from this year. If your experience with anime is Speed Racer, Robotech, and /or Pokemon - you might consider a new look - afterall - you cant judge Morrison's Invisibles or The Watchmen based on Ditko's ROM or the old Archies. This stuff has become a remarkable medium for storytelling.
And now that you're giggling at my childish source of entertainment - i'll go back to reading Cormac McCarthy - which is the other thing i've been doing - so piss off ;)

Guilty of kidnapping and conspiracy to commit larceny, housebreaking, kidnapping, false official statements and murder for his involvement in the death of Hashim Ibrahim Awad - an Iraqi Police Officer.And he gets what... a year in jail and now he goes home?
I'm really beginning to question my support for the military men and women who serve... and that's screwed up. Who signs up for the military these days... because if this and the other stories like it is any indication - it's right back to the days of the Texas Rangers - Rapists, Thugs, and Murderers - all in the guise of authority and wrapped in the flag. WTF is happening to my country.

i love this
"His mother isn't exactly making the most of her high-speed connection. She only uses it to read Web-based newspapers."
So, hollywood... you afraid yet? you should be...
I love the president.
I think what we're doing in Iraq is absolutely the right thing.
I really want to encourage him and all the people that support him.
Because, in the end, he's a great man... and so are all the wonderful people who agree with me.
so please don't take all my stuff.
(when does someone stop him from using the constitution to wipe his ass? - oh crap... did i say that out loud... kidding!!! i was kidding!!! really....)

Listened to Norm Coleman (he just doesnt have a brain)
Listening to Kerry (wtf were the dems thinking with this dumbass)
why cant we have senators who can hammer this issue - it's not like it's a surprise... eloquence? rhetoric? nah... but nice ties and tailored suits.
ahh well... it's a democracy... you cant have everything.
Also saw that there's a rebuttal to william kristol's tripe from a couple days ago (the W will be seen as a great president spew). The 250 pages of responses had to rattle the WP's editorial board... since they were almost all better considered than Kristol's cheerleader routine. The problem, of course, is that Kristol could be right - and no one sees it...
my response:
There is only one thing Corn misses here... Bush is a symptom. The problem is the 27% of this country who still - in the face of such overwhelming evidence - 'feel in their gut' that Bush is doing a great job. We have a terrifying minority in this country - driven to the irrational - willing to put their own egos before reality or the interests of their families, friends, communities, or country. Kristol and Podhoretz are canaries - there is a poison in the Republic - and if left to fester, god help us, a future America could evolve that all but worships W. Afterall - which among you could have imagined the absurd state of our current political rights and freedoms 10 years ago?

The World Needs More Bears
The Christian thing to do is to love them...
to forgive them for what they've done.
But when i see stories like this...
My heart goes out to the father who not only has to grieve for the loss and empathy for the things his daughter went though - but also has to struggle with the worthless and bitter taste of vengeance...
Me? - makes me glad i'm not a christian... Fine - call me a barbarian texan - but i'd cut out that son of a bitch's small intestine, nail it to a tree, and stake the chained bear to the adjacent post myself (an old native american method of disposing of people like this). And when those good hearted people who oppose the death penalty ask 'but who are you to judge' i'd say 'i'm the guy with the bear'.

Diaper Dave Apologizes
So Diaper Dave, the esteemed senator from Louisiana, has said he's sorry he got caught having sex with a prostitute. And now that he's said he's sorry - he wants to move on - get on with the business of representing the values of the good god-fearing republicans that elected him. According to him "I'm not going to answer endless questions about it all over again and again and again and again" - ok - how about answering some endless questions once, maybe twice.
In the mean time he wants to get back to work... seeing to the erection of fences on our borders... making sure I-49 gets laid promptly and efficiently... and improving Louisiana's problems with mother nature's overly exuberant discharges.
The beautiful bit though? Wendy...
"I stand before you to tell you very proudly, I am proud to be Wendy Vitter."
When you proudly proclaim your pride...
Proverbs 6:16 - These six things doth JHVH hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:
17 - A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
18 - An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
19 - A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
Lake of Fire? Why yes... i believe they'll take a window and an aisle if they're available...
how many times to i get to combine politics and work in a post?
So one of the lawyers for Antigua in the WTO dispute with the US was interviewed recently - and this is the result. If you didnt understand the situation before - it's a great primer.
Now - lets talk about what happens. "Antigua didn't bring this case so it can sell cheap Microsoft products or DVDs" is a great indicator. When the flag goes up on this - i expect a lot of 'certificate of authenticity' shops to go up in antigua. Redmond is going to suffer - badly - because its going to be SQL connector licenses that go out the door first. The film industry will be next - esp if Antigua begins offering 'legal' copies of movies on the internet that havent hit the theaters yet (yes - that will happen - quickly i might add).
So what's the Bush administration's best method for dealing with this? Bush doesnt have fast-track trade authorization anymore... that expired... so... i guess... this? This is going to be a massive political problem in about 4 months... really...
I never thought Adam Sandler was funny. Not when he was on his Remote Control days (i only watched that to see the beautiful Marisol... not Kari Wuhrer)... not when he was on SNL as _____-guy, idiot with guitar singing sophomoric cringeworthy songs on weekend update... not when he was in any of his copy-paste romantic comedies where he's put in some absurd situation with some beautiful woman and hairbrained hilarity ensued. He wanted to be Bill Murray... badly... and he was always just a shadow. A mimeographed copy - with the blue smudgy color and the get you stoned smell.
But for all that - i never wanted him to be hit by a train.
Until now.
DIAF Adam.

Saw a painful story on homeless mentally ill being shoveled into prisons in florida. Makes me want to give up on fixing anything here... Maybe open a take-out BBQ joint in Beijing... franchise it... call it Perfecto or something... "I will start a chain of BBQ Joints in the world. This will go down in history. Take out for everyone there. Perfecto." The 15 yr old just had the wrong product. Too much exposure to Chertoff's gut...

One to make you feel better about the future....
because some days, like today where the president admitted someone in his administration leaked the name of a covert CIA operative specializing in nuclear nonproliferation for personal political gain and he was pretty much ok with it and just wanted to move on....
and where Joe Biden pretty much nails the current situation in Iraq with "Absent an occupation – which we cannot sustain; or the return of a dictator—which we cannot support; Iraq cannot be governed from the center"...
some days you need it.
Truth to power. It doesnt help - but like the kid said - "silence betokens consent"

The Iraqi port city of Basra, already prey to a nasty turf war between rival militia factions, has now been gripped by a new fear -- a giant badger stalking the streets by night.
It gets better... (from the article)
"I saw it three days ago at night attacking animals. It even ate a cow. It tore the cow up piece by piece. I tried to shoot it with my gun but it ran away into the orchards. I missed it," he said.
In Iraq there can be only one explanation for an animal so vicious.
"I believe this animal appeared following a raid to the region by the British forces," said Ali Mohsen, a farmer in his 40s from Karmat Ali, near the air base used by the multinational force.
"As we are close to the airport, they probably released this animal into the area," he reasoned.
Mushtaq Abdul-Mahdi, director of Basra's veterinary hospital, has inspected the corpses of several dead badgers and tries to reassure his fellow citizens that they are not a new post-war arrival in the region.
"These animals appeared before the fall of the regime in 1986. They are known as Al-Ghirayri and locally as Al-Girta," he told AFP. "Talk that this animal was brought by the British forces is incorrect and unscientific."
Dont let the lies fool you. The British have obviously been working on improving their advanced Hedgehog technology... and are just using Iraq as another venue to test their weapons of terror!!!
and now for your moment of zen....

And today's winner of the Colin 'Mobile Biological Weapons Labs' Powell "I tried to do my job for 2 1/2 whole hours" award for ineptitude and cowardice goes to Former Surgeon General Richard Carmona.
Yes - yet another Profile in Non-Courage for this administration. I guess if you're going to pick lapdogs that are going to whine about how shitty things were - at least they did right by picking ones that hold the whining until the team is mathematically eliminated from the playoffs.
In 2000, Wendy Vitter told Newhouse News Service she could not be as forgiving as Livingston's wife or Hillary Clinton.
"I'm a lot more like Lorena Bobbitt than Hillary," she said. "If he does something like that, I'm walking away with one thing, and it's not alimony, trust me."
Put up or shut up Wendy...
I'll even buy you the knife...

Colin 'Mobile Weapons Labs' Powell on Iraq
THE former American secretary of state Colin Powell has revealed that he spent 2½ hours vainly trying to persuade President George W Bush not to invade Iraq and believes today's conflict cannot be resolved by US forces.
"I tried to avoid this war," Powell said at the Aspen Ideas Festival in Colorado. "I took him through the consequences of going into an Arab country and becoming the occupiers."
Wow. 2 1/2 hours. You did your job for a whole 2 1/2 hours. Bully for you. You deserve a cookie. How can you sleep at night you piece of shit. Suck eggs.

Oh Noes!!!
Religious Extremest Terrorists!!!
in Texas!!!
Bombing Churches!!!
nevermind... they're white christians...
nothing to see here - move along...
Full points to MSN for their Live Earth coverage. Great functionality at the site... and tremendous crowd response. I mean - i HAD to watch it just for the Spinal Tap reunion (and Big Bottom featuring 30 bass players was pretty damned funny). Foo Fighters was what you'd expect - Grohl owning the scene (they really are remarkably talented) - but I was pleasantly surprised by Keith Urban and the Abingdon Boys School.
I'll be flipping about the rest of the afternoon. The upcoming Jpop scares me... but how can i miss it ;)
----- edit
Ok - Alicia Keys is really really pretty and i love her voice... but for some reason Dave Grohl is sexier. Hmmm... not sure how i feel about that.

Transformers - The Movie
Ok. It's not like anyone who's going to go see this thing is going to see it or avoid it because I said so... but since it's 2 am and I'm bored and i have this LOOOONG diatribe about housing and city planning and burbclaves and outgrouping that I dont really want to go post on Sharon's blog (i know... i know... shoot me)...
So instead I'm going to talk about robots. Now just because I used to use Transformers as the naming convention for all our servers at the ISP... and I actually OWN a mid 80s version of Optimus Prime and he's sitting on top of my monitor right now... that doesnt make me biased. Well... ok... maybe it does. Cause see... Transformers is ROCKIN COOL. Ok - maybe not THAT cool... but it's a lot more fun than that insipid Shrek crap and a HELL of a lot better than anything Pixar has done in 5 years. There. Got your attention?
Lots of graphic violence without the violence... there are homage shots to the way they did violence in the 40s... giant scorpion robot chases special forces soldier across ruins - special forces soldier is screaming like a banshee - scorpion robot whips its tail back - piece of rubble gets in the way JUST as the tail comes down and the sound cuts off. No blood. Just an implied 'fatality' (if only he had said 'GET OVER HERE'...) Anyway - the plot is silly... but it is SUPPOSED to be silly. They're GIANT ROBOTS looking for the allspark!!! - a giant cube that makes machines into psychotic killers (would loved to see how the 30s engineers handled their cement mixers back in the day). But it never takes itself seriously... there's big city fight scene - where one transformer protects the others from harm by holding up a truck full of furbys... another scene where Megatron is disgusted by having landed on a bunch of humans (they did refer to humans as insects previously - so that sorta holds up) - all achieved in an absolutely absurdly bloodless environment. Lots of dead people - 0 buckets of blood - no boobies (but the film does make Megan Fox look pretty damned good)... NO hubris bobs - because the damned movie even pokes fun at its constant hawking of chevy cars (they use the pontiac commercial music at one point)... only 3 Bobs for Predictability (which is impressive for a movie where you KNOW whats supposed to happen) because Bay just basically strings one crazy explosive chase seen into another and you really dont know where he's going to take it... and, of course, 5 bobs for stupidity - but name a film that's been greenlit in the last year that didnt earn 5 of those. Great contributions from Turturro and Bernie Mac in a movie that really isnt about the actors - its about the GIANT FREAKIN ROBOTS. And VERY good to get the original voice of Optimus Prime in there guys. Full points on that one (if Ebay doesnt use Optimus in a TV ad - they're idiots).
Bay and the studio could have done bad things to this... made it into an Inspector Gadget sorta film... but they didnt. They made it gritty and violent - peppered it full of sappy military montages (which are almost a guarantee of imminent military deaths), and lots of absurd fun.
At the end of the summer, do you want to look back and say 'i should have gone to see Transformers'... yeah - exactly...

Worst President Evar
He's an evil horrible man with a tiny dick taking it out on the world - and i'm tired of apologizing for him. I cant tell you how wrong this is... there aren't words to describe it... i hope this puts more people on the 'impeach that SOB Cheney' bandwagon. I'm liking Kucinich more and more these days (and it has nothing to do with his totally hot wife)

Once upon a time...
there was a country. Oh sure - the country took itself a little seriously - and had this odd sense of purpose - they called it manifest destiny in some circles, they called it flat out arrogance in others, and in yet others they called it imperialistic capitalism. One thing that was certain - there was a whole lot of ego involved.
So this country got itself into a land war in asia - something we all know is probably the second greatest classic blunder one can make. But I'm getting away from myself. The year was 1968 - and a campy fairly unpopular show was in its second season on network television - taking shots at those that felt war and violence was 'the answer' to political problems.
So fast forward 40 years... yes - its been nearly 40 years... and today we find ourselves in a much stranger position. Senators from the opposition party arguing for the elimination of constitutionally guaranteed freedoms... a vice president acting without regard to the rule of law... and the supreme court having to reconsider the question of whether those detained and in custody on american soil can be held without trial, without rights, without the sorts of guaranteed safeties the Eee Pleb Neesta was written to guarantee...
The overacting canadian said it right...
"We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."Leave it to us to let a canadian rub our noses in how far we've fallen - and do it in a cheesy sci-fi timecapsule commentary on the last big military failure of our nation. Happy Canada Day - and thank you. Rub our noses in it every time if you would...
"These words, and the words that follow, were not just written for the Yangs, but for the Kohms as well!"
"But the Kohms–"
"They must apply to everyone, or they mean nothing! Do you understand?"
You might ask yourself - 'why is he so glad to be back in Austin?'
Is it the people?
Is it being in his house for a change?
Is it sleeping at night in his own bed?
or is it...

In August we have send a letter to the USA Ambassador of the Netherlands in Washington. We asked him if he would be willing to send out a letter to the Governor of Texas requesting him to stay Clinton's execution. On September 22nd, we received a confirmation from the Ambassador himself, Mr. Schuwer, that he indeed is willing to send out the letter as we requested, and that the EU Ambassador in Washington would send out the same request to the Governor.
On October 5th, we received confirmation that on that same day, the Ambassador of the Netherlands has send out a formal letter to the Governor of Texas, Greg Abbott, requesting him to stay Clinton's execution.
We are very pleased with the help the Embassy of the Netherlands gave us and Clinton. The fact that an Ambassador expresses his concerns towards the Governor about Clinton's execution shows that something is clearly wrong. We hope more politicians are willing to send out their concerns!
Because of policy, the Embassy of the Netherlands does not make their letters and requests public.

(Editor's Note: Yom Hashoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day, began last night as a solemn observance of the more than six million European Jews who died at the hands of their Nazi oppressors between 1933 and 1945. Established in 1953, the day is observed on the 27th day in the Hebrew month of Nisan. This year that date is today April 19, 2012. It began, by tradition, at sundown April 18, 2012. Many observances are schedule this weekend throughout the United States.)

Charlie Austin's wife Bianca opens up about the loss of their baby girl in heartbreaking Facebook post
Bianca Austin, 27, said the death of daughter Tayton-Grace, who had a rare brain condition, was 'extremely traumatic'
PREMIER League star Charlie Austin's wife has opened up about losing their baby girl in a heartbreaking Facebook post.
Bianca Austin, 27, said the death of Tayton-Grace was "extremely traumatic" but a decision they made after learning she would have "zero quality of life".
The couple made the difficult decision to terminate the pregnancy at 34 weeks and three days later, the baby girl was stillborn in August 2010.
Bianca, who married the Southampton star in June 2015 and since had two children together, decided to speak out today as part of baby loss awareness week.
Writing on Facebook, Bianca explained that problems began around 28 weeks when her "bump" measurements fell four weeks behind.
She said: "I arrived at the hospital with a friend excited to see my baby bouncing about on the screen again.
"The sonographer put the scanner on my tummy and there she was, kicking and moving around.
"But the lady scanning me was quiet, she told me she wanted her senior to have a look at my baby and left the room.
"Minutes later the consultant came back, scanned me, then sat on the chair next to me and said 'it's not good news'."
She was told the baby's brain hadn't developed properly on one side and she said she knew then the little girl would be brain damaged, but didn't know the extent.
"I collapsed walking out the hospital, and remember thinking 'this cant be real, things like this happen to other people, not me'," she said.
Bianca spent the next four weeks travelling to and from John Radcliffe hospital in Oxford, and had numerous scans from different doctors.
She continued: "They decided Tayton had the most severe form of schizencephaly and that she would be severely brain damaged.
"The consultant told us our daughter would never walk, never talk, she wouldn't even be able to eat or drink without tubes, she would need 24 hour care to manage this.
"They couldn't give me an exact life expectancy but they knew she wouldn't live long.
"They could tell me from the MRI's on her brain that she would likely have severe seizures daily and if a nasty infection didn't kill her, eventually one of those fits would.
"Because Tayton's medical condition was so very severe and because the doctors determined she would have zero quality of life, I was given the option at 34 weeks to end my pregnancy."
Bianca added: "I cannot even begin to explain how difficult making that decision was.
"I guess it's like having the choice whether to turn off someone you loves life support machine.
"Because though you've never met that baby in your tummy you have a enormous amount of love for them.
"You've already imagined taking them home, watching them take their first steps, their first day at school.
"Your future and theirs is already planned in your mind. But I knew all I imagined would never ever happen.
"My little girl was far to poorly and her little life would only be spent in pain.
"So me and Charlie made the most difficult choice - to let our little girl go."
After consultants signed documents confirming the baby would have no quality of life, Bianca's pregnancy was terminated at the end of July.
"I can't even begin to explain my feelings that day, you can't put that pain into words,there's no point even trying to," she said.
"I had to spend the next three days with Tayton in my belly as the hospital in Swindon was too full to induce me.
"Days felt like years with a baby in my tummy that was no longer kicking me. A baby I knew was no longer alive."
Tayton-Grace was born on August 2, 2010, after a "long and upsetting" labour.
Bianca said: "I was on the labour ward still so I could hear all the other babies screaming. The screams broke my heart."
She described her little girl as "beautiful" and "completely perfect" but said when she saw a "large dent at the back of her head I'd made the right choice for her".
The couple were able to spend the rest of the day with Tayton, dressing and holding her, but later that night they had to walk out without their child.
Bianca said: "The day that's usually the best day of a mother's life was the worst day of mine.
"I felt like my whole world was crashing down around me.
"Even at this point it didn't feel real, it felt like it had all been just a bad dream."
She explained the months after their baby's death "weren't any easier".
"From having to register my daughter's death and birth at the same time, to seeing other pregnant women.
"Seeing people I knew in the street quickly look the other way, or people who I barely knew asking 'wheres the baby?'
"Returning all my babies things to Mothercare a month after Tayton was born is an experience I'll never forget.
"The cashier refused to take back my pram, cot and many other things because my receipt was too old.
"I explained to her in tears what happened but that 'didn't change the refund policy'."
Eventually she was able to return the items after her mum called head office, but says the company "insensitively" offered her a voucher with the shop as a goodwill gesture.
She added: "What on earth was i going to do with a bloody mother care voucher?
"I felt angry at everything, at every woman I saw with a baby that got their happily ever after when I didn't.
"Angry at myself for not creating a perfectly healthy baby, angry at charlie back playing football, angry at my family and friends who were moving on with their life while I was stood still in pain.
"I wanted the world to be stood still hurting and grieving with me."
Bianca said things began to get easier with time and a day without crying turned into a week without crying, then a month.
"I remember vividly still wanting to strangle the people who would say to me 'you'll be ok', because then, I still wasn't ok, but baby loss is such a taboo people don't know what to say," she said.
Schizencephaly is a rare congenital brain malformation in which abnormal slits or clefts form in the cerebral hemispheres of the brain.
The signs and symptoms of this condition may include developmental delay, seizures, and problems with brain-spinal cord communication.
Affected people may also have an abnormally small head, intellectual disability, partial or complete paralysis and and poor muscle tone.
Severity of symptoms depends on many factors including the extent of the clefting and whether or not other brain abnormalities are present.
Although the exact cause of schizencephaly is unknown, it has been linked to a variety of genetic and non-genetic factors.
Treatment generally consists of physical therapy and drugs to prevent seizures.
In cases that are complicated by hydrocephalus, a surgically implanted tube, called a shunt, is often used to divert fluid to another area of the body where it can be absorbed.

"They don't realise at the time talking about your baby might be exactly what you want and exactly what you need.
"Life does go on and in time I learnt to live with the pain.
"Losing my baby never broke me but it certainly changed me and I'm sure for the rest of my life I'll be a different person."
Bianca said she hopes the raising awareness about baby loss will create knowledge and change.
She continued: "Change in the hospitals that place you on a labour ward full of screaming babies, to help the cashiers in baby stores know how to deal with someone who's lost a baby.
"It's to stop the people crossing the road to avoid talking to that friend who has just lost their baby, it's family, friends and people at work knowing what support to have in place to help someone cope with their loss."
She added: "Baby loss is something I once thought I'd never have to consider, I never thought I'd be a statistic.
"But I am 1 in 4, I am a mother who lost her baby, and if creating awareness can help a person even feel slightly less pain than I did back then, then breaking my silence is more than worth it."
Former QPR player Charlie and his wife Bianca were spotted enjoying a holiday in Barbados earlier this year.
It came after rumours the pair had split - but they were quick to deny the rumours on Twitter.
