Arthur points to the thing I hate most about Democrats: their indefatigable ability to drag out the lowliest fags-are-gross pandering while hiding lamely behind the old Clinton-era Republican canard that "it's not the sex, it's the lying." The watchword is "hypocrisy," a favorite of the Donkle, but the subtext is "icky," to use Arthur's well-chosen playgroundism.
Josh Marshall notes that RNC head Ken Mehlman, himself the butt-end, so to speak, of a lot of queer whispering, has taken money from a "gay porn king." He links unobjectionably to some industry-journal/trade-sheet documentation of the identity of The Porn King, and he also links unobjectionably to the corporate website for his company, Marina Pacific, "The Leader in Adult Video Distribution," which gives a perfectly adequate sampling of the adult videos in distribution.
But that doesn't quite drive home the point, so to speak, so Marshall links to several specific titles, which I can only presume he finds particularly chuckle-worthy or gross--or both.
From Harold Ford, Jr. to John Kerry to Jim Webb to Bill and Hillary Clinton to Bob Casey to Howard Dean--bref, every nationally important Democrat--we hear the same tale: We are the party of equality for homosexuals; but don't worry, because we believe that marriage is between a man and a woman, and only a man and a woman. We object to "enshrining discrimination" in the Constitution, but we don't have a problem legislating it at a federal level and leaving the "activist judges" to the sorry task of taking the brunt of rightwing criticism for letting faggots kiss in churches.
I've laid out my own objections to gay marriage, and they remain. But calling them objections to "gay marriage" is inaccurate insofar as it is not gay marriage that I object to, but the entire institution of civil marriage, which establishes a needless class of special citizens who reap great benefits while the many other households, from extended, multigenerational families to working-class roommates, are inelgible for the same benefits even though they share relationships of commensurate mutual love, trust, or care.
That caveat aside, it remains the case that the establishment of a household in this country requires a civil marriage, and that when your lover is in critical care in the hospital and you seek access to his bedside, or you seek permission to make medical decisions for him, or perhaps you seek to end his suffering over the objections of his estranged, religious parents, there's no substitute in our society as currently constructed for holding up the left hand, pointing to the ring, and saying, "That is my husband." Democrats know this, and unlike me, Democrats aren't advocating for the abolition of civil marriage in favor of a more universal right to a recognized household.
But because they seek the votes of religious morons, and because they believe that even among the non-faithful, right-thinking people will abide fag hairdressers but not fag husbands kissing on the steps of city hall, when someone asks John Kerry or John Edwards or Joe Biden or Howard Dean or Hillary Clinton, the answer is the same: We support equal rights for gays, but we don't believe in gay marriage. Then, on a good day, they'll talk about so-called civil unions.
The Democratic Party: The Party of Plessy v. Ferguson.
In the primary season before the 2000 elections, poor Dennis Kucinich, an honest and articulate leftist granted nothing but cruel mockery by a coporate media and political establishment that considered him a stupid, funny little man, principally because he advocated for actual changes in American policies, was one of only two Democratic candidates (the other was the equally "unelectable" Carol Mosely-Braun) to answer the question, "Do you believe in gay marriage?" with a straightforward, uncaveated, unequivocal, unembarrassed "Yes."
I emphasize that last adjective because gay questions elicit nothing from mainstream Democratic candidates so much as embarrassment and discomfort. They hem and haw. They to and fro. They dither. They avoid. Every queer knows that embarrassment intimately. We have felt it from our parents or our teachers or our friends. We feel it when we show up with a date at the office party and introduce him to coworkers. We feel it when we cease to be gay in the abstract and become actually, physically, really gay.
I'm sure Josh Marshall has plenty of gay friends, coworkers, and colleagues. I'm also sure that he thinks there's something very tawdry about Fire in the Hole and Flesh and Boners. I'm sure he never much considers that his gay male friends do those things. The nice young men in Washington-suit attire take off their ties and strip naked together. They press their hard cocks together. Someone gets on his hands and knees on the bed and someone massages his ass, spreads it, leans in, and licks around his asshole. Then he flips him over and feeds him his cock. Then he flips him back over and slips in a finger or two, or three, or four. Then he puts on the condom, squirts lube on his cock, rubs more into the waiting ass, lines up his hard dick and slides it in. They fuck. They come on each other.
That's what we do. And that's not a very graphic description. That's what Barney Frank does. That's what I do. That's what James McGreevey does. If Ken Mehlman is gay, that's what Ken Mehlman does.
It's not gross. It's sex.
The standard Democratic line is that they have to "frame" their policies on queers in rhetoric that obscures gross gayness from a disquieted Ordinary America, in order to win elections, in order to get power, in order to . . . The last is the great unaswerable, though lately it seems to be "in order to be marginally less objectionable than Republicans." But when Democrats acquire a congressional majority, queers will still get the short end of the stick, so to speak; marriage will still be "between a man and a woman." Ken Mehlman will still be not just a queer, but an icky queer who watches porn. Mark Foley will still be a "pedophile" who preys on "young boys," even though neither term is true or accurate. We will all still talk about something called the "sanctity of marriage." Pornography will still be an evil to be combatted.
In a healthy country, anyone can own Flesh and Boners. No one will talk about it because there's nothing to talk about. If it happens to come up, no one will care.
UPDATE: It appears that a number of younz have reached this post not because you're bowled by da rhymes I bust, but rather because you've been wasting precious billable hours googling "anal." Take it from me, your wife will not let you fuck her in the ass, no matter how many times you ask. In honor of your searching, in any event, here is a picture of the Brewer Twins.

I Have Anal Sex. I Lick Assholes. I Suck Cock. Sometimes I Swallow.

Well, I guess I'm gay, too.

First, I'll settle for 'marginally less objectionable than Republicans' at this point. Those margins are pretty large; they encompass a few hundred thousand blown up bodies and nearly all of our civil rights. And yes, call me charmingly naive, or, you know, just a fucking retard, but I do believe that had Democrats been in power the last decade or so, a few hundred thousand people currently fertilizing the sands of the Middle East would still be alive and well, if, you know, watching what they say when Saddam's secret police are around. And I also believe most of our civil liberties would still be largely in place. If those sentences are loaded with qualifiers, you and I both know it's that kinda world out there. I still maintain, a 'marginally' better world than the one the Repubs are currently dismantling is one helluva thing to shoot for, at this point.
Having said all that, the politics of faggotry, as such, seem to me to be depressingly simple -- you guys are, what, 1/10th of the population? The people who are made somewhat uncomfortable by the sight of you tongue kissing Ru-Paul, or whoever it is you tongue kiss, is, at this lamentable stage in our society's evolution, are, like, what, 80% of the population?
Now, some of that 80% are willing to be tolerant of things that bug the shit out of them (I myself long ago accepted that simply because something annoys or offends me, that's no reason to make it illegal, as most of my activities, voluntary or in-, offend or annoy someone out there), but that 'some' is probably less than half, and the half that isn't very tolerant is, in fact, batshit fucking crazy. Rovian politics is all about finding the batshit fucking crazy people and steering them into polling places.
I'm sure you can do the resultant electoral math; I mean, you're smarter than many Repubs, and they sure as christ can.
Democracy just doesn't work very well for minorities, and on our planet right now, you and I are both part of the same minority -- which is to say, mature, reasonable, mostly sane grown ups who are willing to tolerate other people doing shit that we find frickin' irritating.
For the vast majority of our fellow citizens, to be offended is to be injured. Of course, it's actually no such thing, but you can't tell them that. The average American believes that being comfortable in every conceivable way is an actual entitlement, guaranteed somewhere in the Constitution, which they've never actually read, but still, they're sure that's in there somewhere. You guys make alla dem uncomfortable, and that's not to be countenanced.
I don't mind government being in the marriage business; I wish religion would get out of it. In fact, I'm very much in favor of the kind of marriages we see celebrated (briefly) when Sam and Mary get hitched in PUPPET MASTERS. But when I say stuff like that, even my most liberal and atheistic of acquaintances regard me with horror. There's just something about the idea of term limited marriages, or taking the religion out of the marriage ceremony, that absolutely appalls nearly everyone raised in our cultural matrix. And appealing to THAT kind of visceral emotion is, again, what Rovian politics are all about.
I agree with your entire post, by the way. I'm a big porn perv myself. And I've simply become accustomed to keeping that mostly to myself; god knows if it got out, I'd automatically be judged to be an unfit parent... much like you are, for kissing Ru-Paul. You goddam degenerate, you. - 3:07 PM

Sorry. I badly, badly hammered one of the horribly misshapen run on sentences above.

I haven't checked in here for a while. I log in here today and Hooo-baby! Gotta run for now but don't you dare write another thing till I get back with my smelling salts and my fan.
- Dawn Coyote said...
My dear, dear IOZ - I have thought you many things, but charmingly naive was not one of them...
- topazz said...
Well I'm mildly insulted. FYI: I didn't google "anal sex" - I have you bookmarked and I come here for the issues. And you've got 'em, baby.
- Thrasymachus said...
Tcha! As if no *straight* man ever fucked an ass!
The only part of your description of gay male butt sex that I found truly shocking was the clumsy and amateurish technique.
Licking *around* the asshole? What good did *that* ever do anyone? And who in their right mind uses *four* fingers to stretch out an orifice that they're just about to fuck? And with a condom, no less? Well, I suppose at that point you might *just as well* shellack every potential source of pleasurable friction with 60 or 70 times the right amount of lube. . . really, you might as well just get out of bed and go make thrusting motions into the air of an empty closet with your penis. It's even safer, and promise you'll come just as fast.
A sad state of affairs, if that's the level of sexual proficiency on display in a typical bout of gay ass-banging. It saddens me, but it doesn't gross me out. . . if you wanted to to that, you could have described a scene in which one of your participants eats an enormous dinner before coming to bed and being ass-fucked. I've been down that road and it really *is* gross.
But come on. . . trying to shock us with that stuff, Ioz? Jeez, man. . . that's just gay. - 3:59 PM
- Highlander said...
I referred to myself... or something... as charmingly naive. I wouldn't label IOZ that way, no. - 4:30 PM
- Dawn Coyote said...
Isn't it funny how we just absorb and repeat each other's vernacular without realizing it?
I meant something else entirely in my reference to IOZ's naivete, specifically his quaint impressions about the ascetic nature of heterosexual sex.
Of course, the lash of ascetism is not without its own particular rewards. - 4:52 PM
- gmanedit said...
Gay sex is gross because sex is gross. When you were a kid, did you think about your parents doing it? Eww!
- Highlander said...
Wow. You shore do talk purty. ;) - 5:07 PM
- bobbo said...
Thanks for the twins.
- Keifus said...
And here I've been trying to get traffic by being interesting. (Interest is subjective. Shut up.)
IOZ, curious to your position on government subsidy of procreation. There're some pragmatic arguments for and against it, as well as one of the more reasonable situations when marriage (or "households," if you prefer) is a good model most of the time. Except, of course, the 50% of the time when it's not.
Also, any sex that your congressman politician may be having is sort of offensive, regardless of who's underneath. Why the picture of that pasty, age-spotted, white-stubbled flab sloshing back and forth in the dim hotel light to the bass rhythms of Barry White is making me... well, it's making me giggle a little actually.
- IOZ said...
gmanedit: You may be interested in the Coetzee quotation in this former post. Actually, I'm sure you will.
Dawn: I'm under no impression that no straight people do it right, just that the per capita instance is lower, and, more to the point, that it isn't the act itself, but the idea of two dudes . . . You get the point.
Bobbo: You're welcome.
Thrasy: It's called rimming for a reason. And in any event, let each man claim alone the stretching necessary . . . - 5:36 PM
- Highlander said...
I don't understand why I'm gmanedit.
But... ::shrug:: Whatever.
I did like the post you linked to, and posted a very long comment over there. I'm sure you're thrilled. If you respond, regardless of what honorific you bestow upon me, I probably won't read it, because I doubt I'll be able to find that post again. But thanks for pointing me to it. And for calling me baffling names. Like Dick Jones, I say good business is where you find it. - 6:00 PM

- topazz said...
That's not a bad idea, Ms Zilla. My local paper has a religious advice column with a rabbi and a catholic priest dispensing advice - and people write in questions about all kinds of things besides just religious conundrums.
Maybe Thras & IOZ could do something similar, with a concentration on politics and sex. - 7:15 PM

"...their indefatigable ability to drag out the lowliest fags-are-gross pandering...."
Is this really what you hate most about Democrats? What about their Jewer-than-you pandering, as when Howard Dean took a dump on Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki for not defending Israel during the bombing of Lebanon, or their gratiutous pandering for no good reason, such as when Nancy Pelosi called Hugo Chavez an "everyday thug"?
The common denominator here is that Democrats are self-righteous snivellers. - 2:42 AM

I know I'm way too late to the table to matter but–
It's always been amazing to me how many people live by the squick in their gut rather than the brains in their heads.
Ultimately, what is in your head defines the way your gut reacts. That's why it's crucial to do the right thing from the start. Your emotional responses come from your morality, not in spite of it. Your reflex, or knee-jerk, reactions are the truest demonstration of the character you've been building your whole life. - 7:40 PM

- Apple's sexy concepts from the 1980s (pictures)
In the book "Design Forward," Hartmut Esslinger says that being in the company of coders (and their monitors full of abstract-looking code) inspired Slate, a concept computer filled with lines and bar-shaped accents -- shedding the hard angles of past Apple devices. After shipping all of the prototypes to Apple, the two companies agreed on the Snow White design language, which often used white as a base color and focused on "lines, slates, and no angles."
The book sheds light on the finer details of Snow White design:
Slates with a zero-draft character shape, minimal surface texture, no paint, minimal transitional angles when needed (monitors), and volumes/sizes as small as possible.

'Do You Like My Basement' is a dark comic horror film which asks: How can a blood-soaked basement still make you smile?
Do You Like My Basement? is a dark horror film with a unique, voyeuristic approach to fear. A subtle commentary on actors and filmmakers, voyeurism and reality TV, the story is told from the perspective of an aspiring filmmaker, Stanley Farmer.
Stanley creates a spontaneous, dark comic narrative spun from the auditions of innocent actors who arrive at his apartment for a casting session and agree to play along with his homemade reality horror project. We are sucked into his film-within-a-film as we bear witness to the actors' candid interviews that evolve into unsettling basement auditions. The unfortunate timing of innocent callers heightens the tension as Stanley juggles the developing drama in the basement with home improvements and nosy neighbors, all while wielding his camera to create an improvised cinematic masterpiece.
Do You Like My Basement? is Roger Sewhcomar's first narrative feature film. His desire to make a feature-length movie grew from working long hours on countless low-budget independent productions in New York City. After ten years in the game, Roger transferred his energy to a project of his own and retired to his dank basement to write a screenplay. Four months later, the script for Do You Like My Basement? was done.
Roger tailored the film's parameters to his unique Harlem location. He transformed the space into a filmmaker's lair using existing features and inexpensive production design (plastic sheeting!) -- soon, a movie set was born. Roger begged favors from crew contacts, borrowed props from friends, and cooked a daily lunch to save production money. He also tested his sanity by continuing to work part-time jobs at Lincoln Center and Bloomberg while shooting the film.
Roger's goal is to illustrate that quality low-budget filmmaking can exist in the horror genre without indulging in soft porn and gore tactics. Do You Like My Basement? does feature a smattering of gore, but Roger also creates a compelling narrative through believable scenarios. He gives us a horror movie we love for the fine balance it strikes between humor and terror; we find ourselves laughing through our fear as the final climactic scene unfolds in Stanley's blood-saturated basement.
Roger and everyone involved with Do You Like My Basement? thank you for your support of this project.

- Disney's Port Orleans Resort - RiversideRachel GreeneFeb 26, 2014
I stayed at the Port Orleans with 3 of my friends on our senior trip after high school graduation. It was an affordable hotel that was on the WDW complex. The hotel itself has a great atmosphere - decorated like a real New Orleans themed building, with Mardi Gras touches throughout. The staff was friendly and helpful and the location was an easy ride to and from the parks.

Nov 27, 2012The hotel is very beautiful, the river that runs behind composes a beautiful landscape.
Buildings where guests stay have a themed division: "mansions" and "cottages". The rooms have the standard size of Disney´s moderate category, not so big but very confortable and clean.
The only flaw is that some rooms get away from reception, as it is "villages", you need to walk to go to the lobby or even have breakfast. - Disney's Port Orleans Resort - RiversideJJMember ofBudget TravelersLocal CultureOutdoor Enthusiasts+ 5

Apr 16, 2013The mid level of Disney properties. Along the same lines as Caribbean Beach Resort. Closest proximity to Downtown Disney.
- Disney's Port Orleans Resort - RiversideCarole MurphyAug 05, 2013
My family loved this moderate resort. We had a water-view room and visited when the magnolia trees were in bloom. Wonderful!
The food court was perfect and we preferred to dine there rather than the more-expensive restaurant.
The pool area wasn't as nice as other Disney resorts, but it was perfect for cooling-off after a long day in the parks.
Be sure to utilize the boat ride to Downtown Disney. It's very relaxing.

I absolutely loved this resort! It was very clean and the guest services were some of the best I have ever dealt with. They gave us an upgrade when they made a mistake! We were very pleased with our room. The theme was very cozy and cool and great for families. The view was great- all we had to do was walk outside or look out the window to see the water! It was picture-perfect and I would definitely go back!

Oct 11, 2012I stayed that the Port Orleans Resort on one trip to Disneyworld (and I usually switch it up each time). There's a central lake and and a beach, along with a pool and hot tub. It's one of Disney's mid-range hotels, so it's a bit cheaper than the premium resorts.
- Disney's Port Orleans Resort - RiversideCarol Anne WilliamsJul 05, 2012
Lovely grounds, A beautiful place to spend a few days. I have a family of five, so this was one of the only "moderate" options we had for lodging. We had a trundle bed. Worked out fine. This resort is really huge and particularly spread out. Tough on your feet after a long day in the parks.
I will say, renting a surrey bike as a family is one of my favorite memories. Nice way to see the place!Recommended for:Family Travelers - Disney's Port Orleans Resort - RiversideVerlisiaMember ofLocal CultureOutdoor EnthusiastsFoodies+ 2

Jul 05, 2012Hotel stars rating really doesn't matter when it comes to Disney resort. You will be in good hand no matter what.
I had a pleasant stay at Port Orleans Riverside. The room, while not exactly luxury, was clean and well kept. Linen and bedding was reasonably comfortable. Decent amount of counter space for the ladies. The bathroom is a bit small but other than that I have no complaint.
Transportation to and from any of the Disney parks was easy. There are frequent shuttles during park hours and the shuttle drivers are always courteous and friendly. Hollywood studio and Epcot are short rides away. Animal Kingdom is a bit further and you might fall asleep during the ride. Downtown Disney is accessible also through a lovely boat ride.
Transportation to and from the airport is another story. I do like the magical express. However, it wasn't exactly seamless. Shuttle wait time at the airport could be rather long. You can check in your luggage at the hotel (and pick it up at your final destination) but that would require you to arrange any required baggage fee beforehand. It would be nice if everything could be finalized at the time of booking so I don't have to make multiple phone calls.
Dinner options are rather limited. Your best bet is to take the shuttle to other resorts. The food court at Riverside is decent for breakfast and quick bites though.
Dining options at Disney's Port Orleans Riverside include a restaurant. Room service is available during limited hours. Recreational amenities include an outdoor pool and a children's pool. The property has an airport shuttle, which is complimentary. Wedding services, limo/town car service, and tour assistance are available. Guest parking is complimentary. Additional property amenities include a marina, a poolside bar, and multilingual staff.
There are 2,048 guestrooms at Disney's Port Orleans Riverside. Guestrooms are all accessible via exterior corridors. Bathrooms feature complimentary toiletries and hair dryers. Wired high speed Internet access is available for a surcharge; guestrooms also offer phones, voice mail, and in room safes. Televisions are available in guestrooms. Air conditioned rooms also include ceiling fans, blackout drapes/curtains, electronic check out, and electronic/magnetic keys. Guests may request irons/ironing boards and wake up calls. Housekeeping is available. Cribs (infant beds) and rollaway beds are available on request.
Additional fees and deposits may be charged by the property at time of service, check in, or check out.

Stop Federal Background checks in Arizona
Federal background checks do not work. Currently the federal government has required background checks to prevent convicted felons from buying guns. Does it work? No. There are loop holes like private sales where guns can be purchased without a background check. The solution would be to add more laws to close these loop holes, right? Wrong! The federal background check is only making a list of law-abiding gun owners. We are fighting to stop any new law that is requiring us to give our personal information when buying a gun. We also need to regain the freedoms we have already lost. This petition is for our great State of Arizona to stop honoring any new or current federal infringements on our right to keep & bear arms!

Contractor License Bond
Learn more at our full video library
- Am I able to get a contractor license bond with bad credit?
Yes. Even if you are a contractor with bad credit, we can get you bonded.
- What is the purpose of a contractor license bond?
To guarantee the contractor follows the rules and regulations within a specific state or local municipality.
- Are these considered contract bonds?
No. Contractor license bonds fall under the license & permit bonds category. Contract bonds are a category of their own and guarantee completion of a specific project, while contractor license bonds are blanket bonds guaranteeing the conduct of the contractors work in a geographic location, not a specific contract.
- Do I need a local or state contractor license bond?
It depends on who is requiring the bond of you, the local municipality, county or state. It is possible you may be required to post both a local and state contractor license bond.
- What are the states' requirements to become bonded?
State requirements vary by licensing board and contractors' license classifications. Some have stringent rules along with a bond requirement, while others have no contractor license bonding requirements at all. See our list below to start your research, but check with your local and state governments to see what requirements you have to fulfill to become a licensed contractor.
- Are "compliance only" and "payment & performance" contractor license bonds the same?
Yes and no. Both bond types guarantee contractors' licenses based on geographic locations (not job specific). However, "payment & performance" bond forms guarantee the payment of the contractor's subs and performance on their jobs. A "compliance only" bond form limits the guarantee to the contractor following the rules of the license and can often require no credit check.
Still have questions? See our Education Center or ask us now!
Contractors License Bond Cost
Costs vary by the bond size, applicant, bond form language, location (state, county or municipality) and the bond agency chosen. JW Surety Bonds only reviews the owner's personal credit as a result of our large volume of business, allowing for less scrutiny in underwriting. Many other agencies will review personal credit, business/personal financial statements, industry experience, bank balances and years in business. You can get a 10 second estimate, or you can apply and get an accurate quote.
Get Contractor License Bonds With Bad Credit
You can get approved with bad credit through our high risk markets, many of which are exclusive to JW Surety Bonds. If you work with another agency, the bond will likely be brokered through us, possibly costing you more time and money. Keep in mind, credit issues will increase bond costs.
What Is A Contractor License Bond?
The bond is a guarantee that you will follow the regulations of your state, county or local municipality. It is also required to obtain a license. Watch our video to learn how to get a contractor license.
Get The Contractor License Bonding You Need
Different states, counties and municipalities have their own unique bond requirements. Whether you need a local or state contractor license bond depends on who is requiring the bond. It is possible to need both local and state bonds depending on your location.
Contractor license bonds have varying bond form language, which declares exactly what the bond guarantees. Bonds with compliance language only guarantee that license regulations will be followed. Bonds with performance & payment language also guarantee payment to subcontractors and the contractor's work performance. Take a look at our bond requirement list below, which includes state, county and municipality requirements.

Celebrate Easter By Hurling Yourself Down Vermont Street
In lieu of egg hunts and church services this Easter Sunday, hundreds will instead hurl themselves down Vermont Street in Big Wheels. (Yes, we mean the plastic thing you rode as a child.)
Jon Brumit's annual Bring Your Own Big Wheel event sees the city's most creative cats emerge from the alleyways, donning costumes from Fred Flintstone to Dracula, steering trikes, bikes, wagons and more. (We do recommend protective garb, as well; that's one nasty hill to take a tumble.)
Racers will take off at 4pm from Vermont and 20th Streets on April 12; most years, there are multiple runs, should you miss the first heat.

The good folks at Talend have released the Talend Integration Suite MPx, a new enterprise data-integration platform that the company says "is designed to help organizations attain the highest levels of performance and shatter the limits typically associated with traditional data integration processes". The solution is based on the Talend Integration Suite while adding the new FileScale technology, a breakthrough that allows organizations to conduct highly parallelized processing and reduce limitations inherent in traditional data-integration architectures. It further allows integration processes to sort, filter and merge data, perform aggregation and arithmetic functions, and transform and ensure the compliance of data. Finally, the new package features multiple levels of massive parallelization, allowing the execution of separate subprocesses in parallel, breakdown of data sets into many parallel streams and the ability to leverage parallel database loaders.

Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

If you already use virtualized infrastructure, you are well on your way to leveraging the power of the cloud. Virtualization offers the promise of limitless resources, but how do you manage that scalability when your DevOps team doesn't scale? In today's hypercompetitive markets, fast results can make a difference between leading the pack vs. obsolescence. Organizations need more benefits from cloud computing than just raw resources. They need agility, flexibility, convenience, ROI, and control.

Stranded Carnival cruise ship Triumph
The voyage of the cruise ship Triumph was interrupted when a fire broke out Sunday morning in the ship's engine room as it cruised about 150 miles off Yucatan. The fire left the ship running on generators with limited water. Passengers used cellphones to call and text home, reporting that they were sleeping in hallways, urinating in bags and waiting hours in line for limited food.

Bill Lowe is proud to showcase a stellar array of new works by artists from the Fine Arts Atelier. Included in the exhibition are artists Barbara Brenner, Karen Schwartz, Ellen DeLoach, Brenda Rehrig, Jeffrey Paclipan, Susan Moreno, Richard Diedrich, Kelin Perry and Susan Grill Joss, among others. The show opens on Friday, February 21st, from 6 PM until 9 PM.
Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) February 17, 2014
Fine Arts Atelier, more commonly known as FAWS, provides classes, individual instruction, studio space, and a range of artist services designed to inspire and support artists in developing and strengthening their work. The original concept for this program was based on the Black Mountain School in North Carolina, where artists were taught by artists and worked in groups to gain, grow and hone their individual voice. Michael David launched this program and has been amazed at the pace at which it has grown, not only as a learning and teaching community, but as a family as well. According to Michael David, its corny, but the Atelier is like family; sometimes we argue and sometimes we make mistakes, I am closer to some of the members than others.
Michael David spends a great deal of time with every artist and is determined to bring out the best in each one of them. Ellen DeLoach has been a FAWS member since 2011 and she describes her immersion within a group of artists who are learning and passionate about art as eye-opening. DeLoach never had a formal education in art but, according to her, she feels like she is working on a Masters in Fine Art when being mentored by Michael David.
Another highly acclaimed artist,Barbara Brenner, recalls being so excited that my hands started to shake when she first learned of an encaustic workshop David hosted in Atlanta back in 2010. Flash forward to 2014 and her soulfully luminous encaustic panels are stopping gallery-goers in their tracks with an honesty and rawness that completely belie Brenners long tenure in corporate advertising at The Coca-Cola Company. The overwhelming success of her exhibition last season at Lowe Gallery has prompted Bill Lowe to schedule a second one-person show for the Fall of 2014.
According to Bill Lowe, the FAWS show promises to be an astounding one, the accumulation of all these powerful artists in one space will without a doubt entrance the gallerys patrons. So bring friends, mingle with the artists, enjoy some good food and wine, and more than an anything take in the extraordinary artwork! The event is free to attend, and is a great way for the community to become involved in the thriving Atlanta art scene.
Bill Lowe Gallery has been recognized for a quarter-century as the Souths pre-eminent contemporary gallery. It is widely acclaimed for the depth and scope of its program, curatorial excellence, and concentration on content-driven work by artists with an advanced technical mastery of their media. The philosophical architecture of Bill Lowe Gallery is built upon a reverence for the alchemical nature of artistic expression. The gallery honors the profoundly spiritual nature of visual language and the role it can play in affecting paradigm shifts at both a personal and societal level.

"We love this little card. It's very us and worked well for our over all theme and design. I didn't care too much for the tinyprints logo on the back being so big, and the card has a matte finish so get an ink pen not a ball point. But other than running out of room we love these cards!! They will be great for overall thanks and not just wedding thanks."
"Again, tiny prints comes up with the best designs! I come from a family that is Chinese, Spanish and German. This card is fun, colorful and perfect for just about any nationality! I don't need to get plain blank cards or specific language cards! Love it!"
"The cards are adorable - but because of the finish they are really difficult to write on - I destroyed a few because I typically use rollerball pens. However, I found a sharpie that works great (and looks cute too!)"
"I just needed a simple flat note card for a "go to" for numerous reasons and this fit what I was looking for. Its simple and beautiful. Paper is great quality and the colors are perfect. Love it."
"The note cards arrived on time and are just perfect for dashing off a quick note. The card stock is heavy and the printing crisp. I will enjoy using them!"

This set is very heavy duty and I believe will last a long time. The sockets are great but the holder isnt too great.

These Craftsman sockets are very well made, and at the time sears had a very good buy on them I could not pass up. The sockets are heavy made and fit tight on the bolt or nut you are trying to remove.

Still had a bit of machine oil on em in the package, must mean that they are super fresh ! Fits the head of the bolts well. No slop. Good ring to the metal. I am still using Craftsman tools I bought in 1973. Strongly suspect, 41 years from now, when I am 99 yrs old, these sockets will be working just as hard as I am using em now. Don't know if I can say the same about me. LOL

These sockets are excellent for home use and are a great value for the price. I used them to change the brakes on my car and they performed perfectly.

The greatest depp impact socket set ever.....Lasts for year....Simply amazing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Raeford, NC
via sears.com
These are OK for what I need them for and what I paid. I work on my wife and my cars a few times a year and paid about $10 for the set after discounts so I can't complain. That being said, they are definitely inferior to the classic Craftsman "made in USA, guaranteed forever" sockets. Not only is the warranty not as good anymore but the smoothness of the metal is inferior to the Craftsman metric impact socket set I've had for about 10 years. These are made in Taiwan, but for $10 if you don't need them for professional applications they are AOK.

Enriching Advisement: The Workshop Series was designed to provide an on-going series of workshops on a variety of advisement topics, with professional counselors, advisors, and administrators serving as the workshop instructors. The series was developed integrating conceptual, informational, theoretical, and relational advising aspects. The workshops address diverse training needs, and can enhance the skills of beginners through very experienced academic advisors. By attending various workshops, faculty and staff learn not only about the advising process and the tools needed to advise effectively, but they also learn the theories that support these processes. The offerings are scheduled at a variety of times, on both the Brighton and Damon City campuses, to accommodate faculty and staff's busy schedules.
Times and workshops vary each month to address differing needs. Class sizes are limited. Please contact Denise Klein at 292-2402 with questions or concerns, or to reserve a seat.

OtterBox or Leather Case
So I have an iPhone 5. I use it mainly for music, and to play games and social apps on. Nothing too crazy, just music work with apps is my main thing recently, and Angry Birds Star Wars lol.
I saw a case recently that was leather, and had a slim side pocket for a debit card. The thing I am wondering is, will this case, which is padded on the inside and has felt like material on the inside so no scratches, will it be better for the phone if i was to drop it? Its in a otterbox defender, but i have seen iphones crack in those still. This is what the case looks like for reference: http://hypebeast.com/2012/11/hard-gr...case-heritage/ |

If you are going for leather, I recommend this one. Great quality and a lot cheaper.
