Town Square
Can anyone tell me: why Mitt Romney?
Original post made by Ed Treller on Sep 21, 2012
The republican candidate 4 years ago was beat by Barack Obama in a landslide, almost 200 electoral votes, 365 - 173.
With recent history in mind, why did the GOP pick the guy who lost so badly to John McCain, who lost so badly to Barack Obama?
Looking at Mr. Lawrence's recent thread, with 88 comments and 1200 views, no one can offer a reason why the GOP chose Mitt Romney. I heard lots of reasons not to choose Gov Romney in the primaries; was no one listening?
Real Clear Politics, which seemed to be highly recommended in the last political thread, predicts an Obama victory, 332-206, with the "toss-up" states all breaking to their composite polls. Web Link
Similar electoral numbers appear at the vaunted 538 blog, with them giving Gov. Romney only a 23% chance of winning. Web Link
Again: why did the GOP pick Mitt Romney?
on Sep 21, 2012 at 4:24 pm
Two reasons for Romney:
1. the other Republican candidates were boring and/or seriously flawed
2. big money loves Romney, which allows him to outspend everyone else combined
Maybe the Republicans will find someone more competent 4 years from now. None of the RNC speakers was very interesting, except maybe for Condi Rice.
on Sep 21, 2012 at 4:44 pm
All the big boys stayed out of the race, so Romney won by default -- Santorum Perry Bachman Cain Trump et al.. ain't exactly the first string. The first string saw Obama as unbeatable based on last year's poll numbers and elected to wait for the open eat in 2016. With the decks cleared, Romney just outspent the rest, virtually carpetbombing, with negative ads, each one as they stuck their head above 20% in the polls. Conveniently for Romney, they did it serially, so he could knock them off one at a time. Shooting fish in a barrel.
In 2016, Thune, Daniels, Bush, Christie, Rubio, etc.. bring their 'A' game for the open seat. We'll see if Republican voters exhibit a backlash on them for not having the guts to run this year, leaving them with Mitt and the pathetic 7 dwarfs. That anger will be one of the 7 stages of Mitt-post-loss-grief-syndrome.
The senate stays blue. Yet to be seen is if Romney's lack of coattails costs the House. The repercussions of such a devastating turn could wreak havoc for the GOP for a year or more leading to the midterms.
In short, Romney was a fluke. In what other circumstance would a party nominate someone who wouldn't even release his taxes like his father did?
A stunning choice.
on Sep 21, 2012 at 4:46 pm
Although your question is clearly rhetorical, you did ask it more than once. As the current White House would say, the answer is "self evident"... I suppose you know it.
Because he won the primaries. Why did the Democrat party pick Michael Dukakis or George McGovern? Neither party gets to pick ANY candidate, they get to choose between the ones on the ballot. In this case, Romney was preferred over the others.
The plain truth is that President Obama is not Kenyan, not a Muslim, not Communist, and not un-American. Similarly, Mr. Romney is not an evil guy who cuts and burns companies, contributes to the death of ex-employees, and wants to destroy the middle class. He is, perhaps the most charitable, boy-scout like candidate in our history. No, you may not like him and he's certainly not a warm, fuzzy guy, but like John Kerry's "swiftboating," he has been unnecessarily demonized. Perhaps turnabout is fairplay, but just wait until it happens to your guy next.
We should be having an honest conversation about our government's uncontrollable spending, mounting debt, continuing credit downgrades, unsustainable entitlements and pensions, lack of revenues, unfair taxation, our increasing wealth gap, unemployment, energy, immigration, the staggering economy and a world that is quite literally ablaze and appears to be on the verge of a melt down.
Have we heard anything about these issues? Sadly, not much. But we have heard about "you didn't build that" and "47%^ of Americans are victims."
So if you want to talk about Mitt's taxes for the next few days, have at it. But there are better ways to enjoy yourself and far more productive ways to discuss our problems.
Mr. Romney is clearly behind and he is very lucky that this election isn't held on the first Tuesday in October. An awful lot can happen in the next 45 days and I can almost assure you that this race is more likely to tighten than widen. We'll just have to wait and see.

A far-off scream turns into a cackle of deranged laughter. Hands reach out through steel bars. Straitjacketed crazies cower in padded cells; lights flicker on and off down endless maze-like corridors; groans and whispers echo through the shadows—is there anywhere that exerts a stronger pull over the darker recesses of our cinematic imaginations than the insane asylum? Film has a unique facility to portray impressionistic, subjective states—dreams, nightmares, memories, aspirations—and therefore, of course, madness, because what is madness other than being inescapably trapped in a totally subjective reality? So it's no wonder there's long been a filmic fascination with the subject, and within the storied tradition of films set, wholly or partially, in psychiatric institutions, a particularly seminal entry celebrates its 50th anniversary this very day—Sam Fuller's exploitation classic "Shock Corridor."
The schlocky tale of a Pulitzer Prize-hungry journalist who goes undercover in a mental institution to solve a murder and finds himself struggling to hold on to his own sanity, "Shock Corridor" is elevated above its splashy, trashy brethren in the exploitation genre by a couple of things, most notably Fuller's kinetic editing and shooting style (in jagged, stark black and white, bar one color dream sequence) which lends even the hammiest moments a jolting immediacy. It's also overtly a document on the America of the time, with the insane-asylum-as-microcosm of society theme writ large; at several junctures, patients deliver long speeches that are more social commentary than characterization, and often the symptoms of their illnesses are themselves not-so-thinly-veiled references to various social ills and issues. And so the witnesses to the crime that the reporter wants to investigate include the inmate driven insane from the bigotry he experienced as the first black student admitted to a previously segregated Southern university, who now believes he is a founding member of the KKK, along with other representations of nuclear panic and the Red Scare (note comedian Dave Chappelle sort of aped/re-tweaked this concept decades later for his comedic means).
That Fuller manages to pack in all this text/subtext and also feature electroshock therapy, stripteases, nymphomaniacs, riots and other salacious diversions is a testament to just how deliriously in-your-face a film can be when you jettison such niceties as good taste or high production values. Undisciplined, unprincipled and totally compelling, the Criterion-approved "Shock Corridor" got us thinking about other representations of asylums on screen through the ages, from the well-known to the more obscure. So take a walk with us through the ward, as we pull back the viewing hatches and observe the following ten snarling, spitting headcases:
"Gothika" (2003)
Whoever said that less is more when it comes to horror, and that thrills imagined can be more effective than those shown clearly never sent the memo Mathieu Kassovitz's way. Some years, and several films after his scorchingly brilliant sophomore feature "La Haine," Kassovitz went to Hollywood and to Halle Berry, for what we hope was a big fat paycheck, and seems to have thought, well, what the hell, in for a penny, in for a pound. And so the resulting film, a mishmash of madness, murder mystery, possession and ghost story sees him throw everything at the wall (occasionally his lead actress) to see what sticks. The result is an overwrought, hysterical hot mess in which the "twists" and revelations are so groaningly telegraphed that it all plays out like déjà vu even the first time you watch it. The film's biggest problem, aside from Kassovitz's never having met a strip light that didn't fizz on and off ominously—at one point that's happening inside ("That damn generator!") while lightning flashes outside—is that there's simply no tension, no ambiguity in the central character at all. She may be possessed, haunted, insane or whatever, but Berry's Dr Veronica Grey must also be morally good, and what's really the only reason a woman can murder her defenseless husband with an axe and have it seem like the right thing to have done? The audience gets there a looooong time before the film does, but at least we have time to ponder such questions as: what was the point of Robert Downey Jr's completely superfluous character? And with him as a doctor and Berry and Penelope Cruz as inmates, is this in fact an Institution for the Criminally Photogenic? Kassovitz would trundle even further down turkey lane with the incomprehensible "Babylon AD," but really, the greatest shame about "Gothika," aside from the whole "wtf were you thinking, Halle Berry?" which could arguably be applied to her entire post-Oscar career, is that in its delirious, maximalist embrace of every genre cliché, it stops just short of the all-out camp that could have made it a cult classic.
"The Snake Pit" (1948)
At the time described as transgressive—even horrifying—to a modern eye 1948's "The Snake Pit" plays as a relatively progressive and measured take on the 1940s mental health system (through framed of course through the all-pervading patriarchy of the period). Directed by Anatole Litvak, it's a strange hybrid of women's picture, social critique and defense of the usefulness of psychiatry, and contrary to the impulses of the more melodramatic "madness pictures," it presents a broad overview of a women's mental hospital in which the inmates are largely to be pitied rather than feared, and for some of whom at least, cure or the management of the their condition is possible. Olivia de Havilland's Oscar-nominated performance is one of the elements that gives the film its surprisingly modern feel—for those of us more used to seeing her fretting in period garb or simpering over Errol Flynn, her Virginia here a minor revelation, with her luminous prettiness dialed down and a certain strength underlying her evident fragility. Virginia is committed to psychiatric care with a heavy heart by her devoted new husband, after a series of worrying incidents in which she becomes distressed around a certain date in May. In hospital, a kindly, pioneering doctor takes her case, but even he can only do so much within an underfunded and under-resourced system. Virginia is given electroshock therapy and counseling; she has breakthroughs and setbacks and, having been moved from ward to ward, is eventually deemed well enough to go home. The film, however, is never overly simplistic about her case nor the circumstances of her care—there are multiple reasons for her condition, not one "A-ha!" incident from her past (as in, say Hitchcock's "Spellbound") that can account for her retreat from reality. And the professionals in the hospital, with the exception of one unnecessarily strict nurse, are mostly presented as decent people too, perhaps overloaded with too many cases, but well-meaning even when they behave counter to Virginia's best interests. It's an engrossing, remarkably un-salacious story that also, in the bravura shot in which an image of the worst ward taken from overhead slowly transforms into that of the titular pit, boasts one of the most memorable images in any asylum film.It's possibly one of the reasons why, in the intervening years it's become something of a touchstone, and its title, at least, is referenced in two of the other films on this list ("Nightmare on Elm Street 3" and "Session 9").
"Shutter Island" (2010)
Part of the enjoyment factor of B-movies is usually how the cronkiness of the story is reflected in the cronkiness of the filmmaking, sometimes leading to the kind of gonzo inventiveness that "Shock Corridor" teems with. But "Shutter Island," despite all its pulpy, edging-on-hysterical twists and genre trappings, is directed by Martin Scorsese with all the glossy high-production values and technical proficiency that his late period work has been defined by, leaving us with that most paradoxical of beasts: the high-falutin' B-movie. It gives Scorsese the opportunity to pull out all the stops in terms of flashbacks, dream sequences, layered-on gothic atmosphere and exquisite production design that only a hokey mystery story set in a sinister lunatic asylum could ever really allow, but it does all ultimately serve little purpose—it seems to have been a lot of fun to make, but, overlong, overplotted and overstuffed with ludicrous genre stereotypes (Nazi doctors, hard-bitten 'tecs, untrustworthy orderlies) "Shutter Island" compromises on anything like relatable characterization. Still, it's a fun puzzle box to sort through, especially if you manage not to guess the twists too far in advance of when you're supposed to, and it does all look brilliant, with Scorsese reveling in having a vehicle into which to be able to funnel, in the most affectionate way possible, so much of his encyclopedic movie knowledge, especially the films noir and gothic melodramas of the 1940s and '50s. But that he's done so with such a broad remit, and with such resources at his disposal (not least the incredible cast of Leonardo di Caprio, Ben Kingsley, Mark Ruffalo, Patricia Clarkson, Michelle Williams, Elias Koteas, Max von Sydow, Emily Mortimer, Jackie Earle Haley and more) kind of feels a little like a cheat, and so, whatever its visceral pleasures, and however neat a package of lunatic asylum cliches it may make for the purposes of this list, "Shutter Island" remains a fun but resolutely minor entry in the great Scorsese catalog.

Guys, The Ninth Configuration. Absolutely mind blowing when I first saw it. Shutter Island owes it a lot!
JD | September 26, 2013 9:14 AM
I feel I should point out two things:
1. Wes Craven's contributions to Dream Warriors consisted of co-writing a first draft of the script. It was Frank Darabont and Chuck Russell's rewrite that got the film green-lit and led to the creation of the Whedon-influencing horror / fantasy classic we cherish.
2. Every abandoned state mental hospital in New England, and as far as I know all over the country, is FULL of old files and documents. When they closed those places they left all kinds of amazing stuff there. It was cheaper then paying to have them trucked off to a dump or an incinerator. I know someone who took boxes and boxes of old files out of a deserted state hospital. They make for very depressing reading.

You forgot about Kingdom Hospital, the tV series by Danish top director Lars von Trier, or the overly polished remake by Stephen King.

Shutter Island is underrated. People were too ready to jump on Scorsese for The Departed winning BP backlash.
Todd | September 11, 2013 4:34 PM
Glad to see "Bedlam" on the list. Val Lewton + Boris Karloff = Good
I'll throw "The Cobweb" from 1955 into the mix. It's a nice Vincent Minnelli melodrama, with the changing of the mental institution's curtains as the main plot mover.

Fans are starting to realize the Lions are better than their 2-5 record. Or they just want to see Rex Ryan's Jets.
Lions president Tom Lewand said Sunday's game against the Jets has sold out and the local television blackout will be lifted.
Last weekend, the Lions defeated the Redskins in a game that was blacked out on local television with plenty of empty seats in the stadium.
The way we see it
The Lions put together an exciting victory over Donovan McNabb and the Redskins in Week Eight, and with QB Matthew Stafford back to throw to WR Calvin Johnson, the Lions' offense looks improved. Plus there's a budding star on the defense in the form of rookie DT Ndamukong Suh. If the Lions keep playing well they will avoid more blackouts. Lewand added that Lions fans have shown that if the team wins, they will show up, as opposed to other NFL teams that struggle to sell out.

Years ago I lived down the street from a genuinely pleasant middle-aged couple who counted their Dalmatian canines as children, lived modestly, and would spend their weekends at either their sprawling ranch-like farm or a secluded chalet in the wilderness. Both commanded decent salaries, which allowed them to read the financial papers without worry, take exciting vacations, and maintain their multiple properties. As for the car of choice for these well-to-do suburban-dwellers — it wasn't a Mercedes or BMW, nor Audi or Lexus. The car sitting outside in the driveway was none other than a bright red MINI Cooper, complete with Dalmatian print–lined seats.
Welcome to the fascinating world of the MINI owner.
Last weekend I was invited to attend the MINI UNITED festival in France. The festival, now in its fourth iteration, is the world's largest gathering of owners and fans that come together for a weekend of racing, live concerts, and partying. I knew there were fans of the car; I just didn't expect the craziness in store for me.
The premise was laid out: meet in Munich, capital of Bavarian Motor Works (BMW) and home of the corporate offices of MINI, with the international press teams and drive to the festival in Le Castellet, France. Along the way we would pass through Austria, Switzerland and Italy. I was confident enough; MINI had assured me that an automatic vehicle would be available for U.S. journalists, who can't drive the "proper way."
As we lined up to receive our vehicles, I was told that it wasn't possible to have an automatic. Inconvenient? Not horribly. This was an excellent chance to build on the solid foundation of manual driving practice I had under my belt: 30 minutes or so, the weekend before. My first challenge: a taupe, red-topped MINI Clubman John Cooper Works.
Upon taking the wheel, I began to get a feel for the clutch under my foot and the shifter permanently glued to the inside of my hand. It wasn't until the Swiss border when I had my first real challenge, learning how to stop without stalling. Unfortunately, that didn't happen. Despite the toll road traffic that saw my car stall close to two dozen times in the span of a mile (I blame the stop-and-go traffic; I believe my guide blames it on my light pedal foot), we arrived at our first pit stop in Milan.
"MINI attracts a psychographic, not a demographic."
– Jim McDowell, CEO MINI USA
The next morning we switched cars and I took the wheel of a Classic MINI for the first time. Despite the leaps and bounds in technology, size and assumed modernity between it and its successor, I was still comfortable taking control of the four-speeder and pushing it past the 100 mph mark, though the shaking can only be described as the feeling on your hands while riding a rollercoaster. Continuing past Torino and into the foothills of France, our convoy of mismatched MINIs darted along the roads in an adventurous game of hide-and-seek.
It was only when I first got honked at coming through Marseille that I realized we weren't the only MINIs on the road. No, when I took a good look around I started to notice MINIs appearing in droves — some in groups, some alone — honking and waving, shouting and cheering. I think the most unsettling thing for me at that moment was the realization that these were perfect strangers to me, and to my best guess, each other. Almost disturbing, but at the same time you felt that you had just joined an exclusive club on the road — where everyone was watching.

There are two MINI's in my family as well. We have a cabrio and a Countryman. These cars are just so much fun and the family community that MINI has is mind boggling. I am even sadder, after reading this article, that I was not able to make it to MINI United. MINI's announcement of MINI United dates should have been published a little faster. I had already made leave plans for IMM (International Mini Meet) in Hungary and therefore could not afford to make it to France. Well since there is not MINI United next year hope to see you at IMM 2013, Tuscany!
Great write up. We just became a two-MINI family and are loving it. If you are looking for MOT (Mode Of Transportation) buy a Hond-Yota-San. If you are looking to join a great family and an amazing group of people, buy a MINI!

News: Keri Hilson Hints At Lil Wayne Hook-Up, Appearing On "Carter IV"
Thursday, Aug 4, 2011 4:30PM
R&B singer Keri Hilson recently talked about rapper Lil Wayne's studio grind and how his upcoming Tha Carter IV may feature vocals from Ms. Keri.
Although calling the guest spot opportunity a possibility at best, Hilson warned listeners not to be surprised if she's heard on the long-awaited LP.
Keri also says there's also a chance she could wind up doing something for Wayne's "Tha Carter IV," which is due out Aug. 29. "He has a studio on the road and he records day-in and day-out, before the stage and after the stage and every other moment in between," she notes. "Wayne and I work together very well, so it could happen while we're on tour." (Billboard)
Late last year, Hilson discussed Wayne's creatvity and rated him on a scale of 1 to 10 for hotness.
"Lil Wayne, I love Wayne, he's very creative. He does have a lot of kids -- I don't know if I could deal with that. It seems like one big happy family, he's such a rock star...Wayne is up there. He's like a seven." (Hot 97)
The rapper recently expressed that he needed better production efforts for his upcoming LP.
"These n*ggas' beats been sucking," Wayne explained in an interview. "I'm putting it out there: You producing? What y'all doing? Get right, man. Step it up. This is coming from a rapper. One of the best rappers. I ain't saying I'm the best no more, because these n*ggas is too good these days. I got old. But d*mn, y'all n*ggas' beats is terrible! [Chad Ochocinco walks into the room] These n*ggas' beats sound like Ochocinco made them." (XXL Magazine)
Young Money's Gudda Gudda recently spoke to SOHH about the LP living up to 2008's Tha Carter III.
"I think it's going to be big and I'm not just saying that because he's my homie," Gudda Gudda told SOHH when asked about the delayed project. "I'm just being honest. I think it's going to be big and it can match up to what Tha Carter III did. The expectations are really big and it's going to be really big for hip-hop when it finally comes out." (SOHH)
Tha Carter IV is slated to drop Monday, August 29th.

What Is Entertainment Hd?
In this site I will be posting everything that I think is worthy of entertainment. Please feel free to navigate through the site.
To start, I want to mention one of my favorite shows, this is True Blood.
It is a show created by HBO and is a great tv series that will keep you locked to your screen. The theme is about vampires exposing to humans. They are exposing to humans because there is a synthetic blood that they consume, which allows them to satisfy their human cravings. To watch true blood online you can go different ways. You can go to amazon and buy the series in DVD. You can contact your Dish of Cable provider and order HBO channels. You can even go to Itunes and buy the series. you can also visit this link. http://www.watchtruebloodonlinehd.com . This site is about the Tv series and only the tv series, which is great if you are a fan. How can you benefit from this tv series. Well, you don' t really, but think about it. It is about vampires and horrendous creatures. Invite your partner to watch it with you. If you are a guy, she will be hugging you. If you are a girl, well, there is your chance to hug him. Any way, this is one of my favorite shows. I just thought of throwing it out there. Oh and by the way I know there are a lot of grammatical errors here, but who cares, you get the point don't you. If you don't, then too bad for you. hahaha.

The Spartacus Tv Series is One Great Series.
The Spartacus TV series is one great TV series by Starz.
I am a big fan of TV series filled with action. Spartacus is a story of betrayal and revenge. Oh my God, I think I told you the entire story in one sentence. Well, not really, but you get my point.
The first time I watched the series was, one day when while I was browsing through tv channels I found this fight between gladiators. I was hooked. So much action and so much blood caught my attention.
Although, I have to warn you that this is not for kids so don't watch it when they are near. The Spartacus series is filled with sensuality as well as erotic scenes not to mention the nudity.
Anyway, you will enjoy the serie. I really recommend it.
There are three series not including the prequel.
here is a list of the seasons:
- Prequel- Gods of the arena
- Season 1 Blood and Sand
- Season 2 Vengeance
- Season 3 War of the Danmed
If you want to stream spartacus online and watch it. There are a couple of ways to do it. you can buy the episodes from sites like amazon or Starz.

New T25 Workout DVDs- Is it Entertainmening or what?
What you should know, about the T25 DVD workout, before you decide on it.
You are tired of being fat. It is your goal to reach a better health and fitness level. You are sitting on your chair or browsing online, and you watch the Focus t25 advertisement. Seems like is meant for you, but is it? Is it really for you? It states that it has the power to change your body with only twenty-fiew minutes, five days a week, but is it? Let me tell you my story. Focus t25 review. I am out of shape, with no time to hit the gym like i used to when I was ten years younger. I am father to a wonderful toddler and full-time husband. I work over 40 hours a week. In other words, I am enslaved. I saw the Focus t25 commercial, and went insane. I wanted to call the phone that instant, but decided to go online and do a bit of research before buying it. I found that all reviewers said the same thing, "yes it works, is great… ", but they left a few things out. I want to reveal a few things. Where do I begin? They lied to you. Well, let me tell you why; they state that is only twenty-five minutes for only five days a week. It is correct in a way, but the 5th day you do two videos making it a fifty minute day. By the way, there is a sixth day, called optional. The day for stretching. How can stretching be optional? The Focus T25 offers exercise modifications. What they forget to mention is that the modifications are not that easy as well. Maybe they are hard for me, and if they are for me they might be for you. If you are years out of shape, you might need to customized those modifications. This Focus T25 is not for everyone, as advertised. To the program, Focus is the key. You have to be ready to take the challenge. When I say ready, I mean physically and mentally. This workout program is for people with determination and discipline. You need to be focused, not only during the program, but before and after. Remember that whatever any workout program promises, cannot be reached without proper nutrition. The workout program also provides information to achieve proper nutrition. Remember that, it is not only scheming through a nutrition guide, but implementing the learned. You are required to change your day to day diet. For this program to work for you; you cannot be doing only the workout routine, but changing your life style. My warning is, If you are not ready to commit to a new way of life, the program is not for you. Not only this program, but any other workout program. Well, this has been my input on reviewing the Focus t25 workout program by Shaun T. I thought you might want to read what others left out. If you want more information on this program, visit my page.

The Charleston County Sheriff's Office has charged a 49-year-old woman with felony DUI in connection to a two car accident that injured three people in Ladson.
Deputies charged Julia Smith of Summerville for the Tuesday night accident.
Around 8:12 p.m., deputies responded to the area of Lincolnville and Ladson roads for an accident involving entrapment and injuries.
According to deputies, a Chevy suburban crossed over the centerline and struck a Toyota sedan traveling in the opposite direction.
Authorities say they detected an odor of alcohol from Smith, who was the driver of the SUV. A police report states Smith was "very unsteady" on her feet.
The driver of the car was airlifted with serious injuries and the passenger was transported by EMS with non-life threatening injuries. Authorities say Smith was also sent to the hospital for possible injuries.
The area of Ladson and Lincolnville Road was shut down while authorities investigated the accident.

Few weeks ago, after small and major web sites blacked out in protest of SOPA, the US congress decided to pause it. Note, they did not throw it out completely but until they can come up with changes to make it pass. So the battle is not exactly over, even though the Internet won the first round. Those outside the US may think that American law does not affect them, but in reality it does, directly and indirectly. The latest victim was the file upload service Megaupload that was used both legitimately and illegitimately by users. The owner lived in New Zealand, had servers in many locations including places that were considered to be "safe" such as the Netherlands. They were also incorporated in Hong Kong. If you visit Megaupload (and its associated services) you will come across the following on its page (known as an ICE take down):
So how does SOPA affect those outside of US jurisdiction?
- If it does pass in the US, what prevents it from spreading to other countries? DMCA take downs are even enforced by hosting providers outside the US with no business ties in the US.
- People will stop being creative. No more video, music and images sharing to name a few. The mentality will be "if it looks illegal it probably is" even though it might be completely original content that publishers are willing to share.
- A large portion of services used in the US are used by those outside. Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Reddit and much, much more.
- Do you have a website? There is a chance you are hosting it on an American web hosting company. Something you put on that is not illegal in your country, might be in the US. This blog is hosted in the UK, but the company providing the service is incorporated in the US, thus coming under US jurisdiction.
- Do you own a domain operated by a US entity? .com and .net are run by Verisign (a US based company), .org is US based as well. Look at what the Department of Justice did to Megaupload's page. All it takes is a change in the nameservers.
- If you use something like PayPal to receive payments, you may have your account suspended and frozen. Even if you were selling stuff legal in your country or region.
- Search engines could start censoring results. Google provide search results based on location, but come under US laws, so they may not show you results to services legal in your country but illegal in the US.
This is by far not an exhaustive list. The list goes on and on and on. So in case SOPA comes up again, think how it might affect you living outside the US. Every little bit of support helps.

Is there a way for app developer to edit / or answer to those questions ?!
( if not: Nokia, you can't change how the people use that, you have to adapt and let developers to post there also. )

MARRIAGE DIGEST: Lesbian couples make up large majority of Calif. 'gay marriages'

* = Required Fields
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (BP)--California's "gay marriages" appear to be following trends in other states, where lesbian couples are far more likely than homosexual men to legalize their relationships.
The Sacramento Bee reported that a sampling of marriage licenses in Sacramento County showed 60 percent were obtained by lesbian couples, 40 percent by male couples. Elsewhere, in Yolo County, lesbian couples made up 65 percent of all marriage licenses. Because the marriage certificates no longer list the couple's sex -- instead of "bride" and "groom" the forms say "Party A" and "Party B" -- the newspaper was forced to go by first names to determine the makeup of the couple. In about a dozen cases in Sacramento County (for instance, "Dusty and Robye"), that was impossible, the newspaper said.
In Massachusetts, which has recognized "gay marriage" since 2004, nearly two-thirds of all "weddings" have involved lesbians. Similarly, in New Jersey, 60 percent of all same-sex civil unions have involved women.
"Women want to be married more than men do," Gary Gates, a demographer at UCLA, told the newspaper in the June 20 story. "The idea of partnering is more attractive to women."
That no doubt is true, but conservative experts say it points to something just as significant: promiscuity among the male homosexual population.
A three-year study by University of Chicago researchers released in 2004 showed that 42.9 percent of homosexual men in Chicago's Shoreland area had more than 60 sexual partners, while an additional 18.4 percent had between 31 and 60 partners. All total, 61.3 percent of the area's homosexual men had more than 30 partners, and 87.8 percent had more than 15, the research found.
Such behavior has consequences: Nationwide in 2006, government data showed that 66 percent of new HIV infections were attributed to homosexual men, even though they make up only about 1-2 percent of the population.
Meanwhile, The New York Times reported that some male couples "married" in Massachusetts have turned the traditional idea of marriage on its head. One couple, Eric Erbelding and Michael Peck, both 44, have no problem with each other having sex with other men. One lives in Pittsburgh and the other in Boston and they see one another every other weekend, The Times said.
"Our rule is you can play around because, you know, you have to be practical," Erbelding said.
"I think men view sex very differently than women," he said. "Men are pigs, they know that each other are pigs, so they can operate accordingly. It doesn't mean anything."
But Erbelding told the newspaper that most of the homosexual couples he knows are "for the most part monogamous, but for maybe a casual three-way."
SUIT SEEKS TO STRIKE CALIF. AMEND. -- The American Civil Liberties Union joined three major homosexual activist organizations June 20 in asking the California Supreme Court to prevent a proposed constitutional marriage amendment from appearing on the ballot. The amendment, if approved, would reverse the court's decision that legalized "gay marriage."
The lawsuit argues that the amendment would "revise" the state constitution -- something that is prohibited from being done under state law by a voter initiative. ("Revision" essentially refers to a fundamental change to the document.) Revising the constitution requires approval by two-thirds of the legislature before an initiative appears on the ballot. Lambda Legal, Equality California and the National Center for Lesbian Rights also are taking part in the suit.
"If enacted, [the amendment] would eviscerate the principle of equal citizenship for gay and lesbian people and strip the courts of their authority to enforce basic constitutional guarantees," Stephen Bomse, a lawyer in the suit, said, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.
Legal experts are calling the suit a long-shot, the Los Angeles Times said. State courts typically don't halt initiatives after they have already qualified for the ballot.
Attorney Glen Lavy of the Alliance Defense Fund, which is supporting the amendment, said Equality California and the other groups "are desperate to evade democracy."
"First, they used the courts to erase the votes of nearly 5 million Californians who voted to protect marriage," he said in a statement, alluding to a 2000 referendum the court invalidated. "Now, they are trying to silence the people's voice forever. This is just another attempt to force a radical political agenda upon the people of California. The opponents of marriage are willing to use any means necessary to impose their will."
Amendment supporters submitted 1.1 million signatures to qualify the amendment for the ballot. For information about the amendment, or to donate to the amendment campaign, visit ProtectMarriage.com (out-of-state donations are allowed).

Plymouth senior Mack Mercer is already known as one of the best players in Michiana by local coaches, but he is trying to convince college coaches that he's one of the best high school players in the country.
"You know you got to go out with a bang," said Mercer.
Most high school kids do everything they can to avoid hard work in the summer, but Mercer says he has no choice. He's playing in basketball tournaments across the country this summer and at every stop he'll have a lot of college coaches watching his every move.
"You know it just gets your name out there. Coaches are here to watch and it's a great opportunity," said Mercer.
The best players from across the country play in summer AAU tournaments and Mercer hopes he can show that he belongs with the top recruits.
The 6'9" power forward has already received scholarship offers from schools like Ball State, Boston College, and Indiana State, but he's hoping by the end of the summer he'll have a lot more options.
"I feel like being able to shoot the ball and put the ball on the floor," said Mercer. "I mean I'm tell enough that I can post up and that's always been a facet of my game. I really feel like I've expanded outside the arc and that will definitely help translate to the next level."
Mercer is playing with the Eric Gordon All-Stars AAU Team this summer. His summer coaches have been around the block before and they know how important these tournaments are for players like Mercer.
"You know we were playing our very first night in front of 65 coaches there," said Eric Gordon All-Stars Coach Scott McIntosh. "It's been that way every night we've played. That's good because Mack is going to get looks more than just Indiana."
His AAU Coaches say so far Mercer has shown the skills that college coaches will want on their teams.
"He can provide a lot on the offensive end for any college team," said McIntosh.
Mercer still has a few tournaments left to get his name out there. He's excited the summer is almost over though, because once it is he'll one step closer to becoming a college basketball player.
"Its been a huge dream of mine since I was young and I am just trying to make it come true," said Mercer.

"It's All Happening": Busy Bring It On and Motown Actress Ariana DeBose Blogs About Her First Tony Awards
By Ariana DeBose
Ariana DeBose, who made her Broadway debut this season in the Tony Award-nominated Best Musical Bring It On and can currently be seen in Motown, performed twice at her first Tony Awards on June 9. She documented the evening for Playbill.com.
What a night!
I am still reeling from last night's incredible celebration of the Broadway community! I am so inspired by what I've experienced over the past 24 hours…starting with dress rehearsal. (I have never seen so many people excited to be awake at 6:45 AM.)
What is it they say about working in television? "There's a lot of, 'Hurry up and wait'!" It's true, but it was great to have the time to take it all in. I stood in our holding area with the casts of The Lion King, Mamma Mia!, Cinderella and Pippin, and I have to say: Broadway has a great look right now. It's like a sparkly melting pot. So many styles of theatre are being featured on The Great White Way. Only here will you find circus people, cheerleaders, music moguls and showgirls hanging out in one place. (#earlymorningmusings.)
Tony Awards dress rehearsal led me straight to half-hour for Motown's matinee and then back to Radio City for the show. I have to say…I had the jitters all the way up until the downbeat of the opening number — which, by the way, was one of the best opening numbers I have ever seen (but maybe I'm a little biased, since it was written by Bring It On songwriters Lin-Manuel Miranda and Tom Kitt)!
Neil Patrick Harris (NPH) is such a fearless host and fantastic showman. Hitting that passerelle (the walkway that extends into the audience) in the opening number with my fellow Bring It On principals was terrifying and exciting all at once, but there is nothing better than 120-something performers hitting the button of a number. (#fierce.) Looking out into the audience and seeing these faces I love and respect left me very misty.
I'm still mind-blown that I was standing on stage behind a curtain waiting to go on for Bring It On's performance as Judith Light made her acceptance speech! I was running on adrenaline and five cups of coffee, so trying to harness all that energy was nearly impossible, but listening to her speak with such love and genuine gratitude for everything around her was so heartening.
So, after that… mad dash to the third floor to change into costume for the Motown performance: to the elevator, costume change, wig change, water, makeup touch up and back to the deck all in (maybe) ten minutes. It sounds like a long time, but in TV Land that was a rush. When I finally joined them, my Motown family greeted me with such support — they made this girl feel really special. Taking the stage with them was icing on the cake!
I watched the rest of the telecast at the Bring It On viewing party and witnessed so many amazing moments… Thrilled for Diane Paulus and Pam MacKinnon — two female directors taking home statues in one night? That's what I'm talking about! And, let's hear it for all the beautiful ethnics up there being honored. It was inspiring to see Courtney B. Vance, Cicely Tyson, Patina Miller and Billy Porter up there. I'm just glad I had the privilege of being a part of the evening… and with two shows!
I then party-hopped in true Tony fashion, hitting Bring It On, Motown and Kinky Boots celebrations as well as the Tony Awards Party at the Café Carlyle. I spent the evening with so many dear friends and people I admire, including Bring It On producers Kristin Caskey and Mike Isaacson; Tom Kitt; Zachary Quinto; Jerry Mitchell; Motown love (and Tony nominee) Charl Brown, Mr. Berry Gordy and the Motown team; and so many more!
It was a magical night that I was so honored to be a part of… I was my own version of Cinderella. I didn't want the ball to end, but I am so glad it happened, and I will never forget it. Hopefully there will be more in the future. Fingers crossed, at least!

Yuma, AZ- This violent crime happened over the weekend. The gunman pistol whipped the cab driver in the face with a gun and robbed him.
News 13 called Buchanan's to get their reaction but they have not returned our call.
Some cab drivers told News 13 they are fearful because the gunman is still out there and hasn't been caught.
Police say the cab driver picked up a man near the 2900 Block of Pacific Avenue and drove him to the 2500 Block of West 24th Street on Saturday at about 1:30AM.
Police say the man had a black hand gun and used it to hit the driver in the face.
He then demanded cash.
Police say the gunman then got out of the car and took off running with the driver's hard earned cash.
About $100 in all.
The victim hasn't come forward to talk but a driver at City Cab tells us while crimes against cabbies doesn't happen that often, when it does it puts fear in most drivers.
"I feel threatened, unsafe, worried, I'm not just worried about myself but I'm worried about all the other drivers out there," said Jessica Stephens a driver with City Cab.
She says their company policy does not allow them to carry guns so many of them protect themselves by carrying weapons like small knives, mace and even tasers.
As for the suspect on the loose?
The Buchanan's cab driver told police the gunman is about 5'8 and he had on a blue shirt. Those were the only details he was able to remember.
Police say they are actively investigating this crime. They encourage anyone with information to contact them or 78-crime to remain anonymous.

Sigur Ros For Harvest 2012?
After a few years of self-imposed hiatus, Sigur Ros look set for a massive 2012 with the release of new record Valtari (out May 25). The band will be once again bringing their phenomenal live show across the globe, and it looks like an Australian visit is on the cards.
Speaking to Mixdown Magazine in a yet-to-be published interview, drummer Orri Páll Dýrason revealed that the band to be in Australia "in November".
While there is every chance a standalone headline tour could be in the works, we here at Beat think it coincides nicely with what will be the second ever Harvest Presents: The Gathering.
While nothing is confirmed at this stage, the prospect of Sigur Ros appearing at Harvest excites us more than just a little.

For the past year Massey played a leading role as a Director for Rebuild Joplin, helping to get 18 tornado affected families back into homes and raising funding for many others.
She is now putting that passion to work for the entire Four State area.
"I'm just so thankful to be part of an organization that is reaching into all facets of the community and not just Joplin, but the region, and working on issues that folks are having in all walks of their life, whether they were affected by the storm or not," says Massey. "This is just a way that I can continue to serve the community and serve the region in a different way."
Massey says one of her goals with the new position is to get more people involved in volunteering within their own communities.

Then you're truly, actually, specifically working for the public. You're turning yourself into a bag of chips."

The Corner at CCS
As part of our ongoing investigation into the filmers behind TransWorld SKATEboarding's latest video, The Cinematographer Project, we caught up with DC filmer Chris Ray. Few filimers have pushed the genre of skate videographer with the trafectory and innovation that Chris has. His films are truly unique and his recent part filmed with DC rider Evan Smith for The Cinematographer Project was no exception. To get a closer look at his work, we sat Chris down this week and bombarded him with a bunch of questions that begin with, "What". Here's what he had to say.
What was the most memorable part of filming for the video? I would say working with Evan directly. He wanted to be really involved after we decided to make the part focused directly around him. He kept saying "this might be my big chance for people to see me" and I would just laugh at him because he is so good and I don't think he realizes how big of a future he has ahead of him.What's the craziest thing that happened while you were filming for this project? It was probably when we were in New York when a big hurricane hit. We were out of power at the hotel for a couple days and couldn't go anywhere. We didn't let it faze us and ended up staying so we could push around the streets for another week.What was your favorite section from the video (aside from yours)? I'd say the Alien section. I've always loved their vibe and the imagery added between skate shots was amazing. I'm also a big fan of the whole team!What's the hardest thing about being a globe trotting filmer? Evan's part was only filmed on trips. He lives in Pittsburgh, so I was never able to just wake up and call him to film. We had to get a full plan together in order to meet up. What's different about your style vs. some of the other videographers featured in the video? I wanted to focus more on one guy instead of a team or montage. I tried to make it just skate heavy with the hope it would make you want to get up and go skate. The video is rad because everyone is so different. I can watch all of the parts and appreciate all of them for different reasons—talk about so many inspirations packed into one video.
What's your favorite trick in Evan's part? The feeble big spin on the long yellow flat bar in the East Bay. I love when he rolls away and the flashes are going off at night. What's your favorite spot from Evan's part? The green roll in bridge in Houston where he did the wallie stalefish. I filmed it rolling in fish behind him and it was super scary because I was getting speed wobble and cars were driving by. I was stoked to try filming it in a different way because I've never seen anyone film at that spot that way before.What was your thought process behind choosing Evan as your focus? I originally wanted to do a whole DC team montage since it's full of all new guys and I just started working there. As we started working on other projects like the "Rediscover DC" campaign, it made a bunch of the guys on team a lot busier. Evan was killing it on trips and I was shocked on how amazing he was. I didn't know and I don't think others really knew until this part came out.
Aside from camera gear what's the most important thing for a videographer to bring on a shoot? You need to cover every excuse. Wax, extra shoe laces, extra shirts, and extra grip. Being a filmer doesn't mean you just hit record. Put the skaters in a perfect situation to help stack clips! What makes a good video part? What makes a good skate video these days? If people watch it more than once! With the internet people just click and ask for something new the next day. It's hard to keep up and a part released six months ago starts to feel like it's two years old in the internet world. I just always make sure the skater is hyped on his part. If we're both happy—I'm stoked.What different countries did you visit while making Evan's part? We did a trip out to Australia for our Rediscover "The Road" video and I saved some of Evan's footage for his TWS part. We also had done a Europe trip when I first started. Other than that we kept it in the US with a trip to SF/Sacramento, Orlando, Houston and an east coast trip to New York/Philly. DC hooked it up on taking care of all our travel – Thanks DC!

Centre of Excellence in Accounting and Reporting for Co-operatives (CEARC)
A focal point for academic and applied research
As part of our efforts to develop the most relevant curriculum materials possible for the co-operative business model, we began a series of Symposia to study various aspects of co-operative business management. The first was the Symposium on Co-operative Accounting. This Symposium highlighted the importance of this area of research which led to the creation of the Centre of Excellence in Accounting and Reporting for Co-operatives (CEARC) in 2007.
CEARC's research work is a collaborative effort and includes partnerships with other researchers and universities. CEARC's vision is to be the leader and respected global voice, in helping co-operatives apply accounting and assurance standards to the specific circumstances of co-operatives.
The Centre of Excellence provides a focal point for research into issues about how accounting and reporting systems should best be designed to fit the unique nature of co-operative businesses around the world. CEARC works closely with co-operatives, public accountants, and academics to develop innovative research programs with practical applications for co-operatives.

But he only remembers one player who's no longer with the Cougars.
Jones, now a top player for Iona, guarded BYU phenom Jimmer Fredette before transferring out of Arizona. Fredette torched Arizona for 49 in one game, 33 in another.
No wonder Jones is confident that the Gaels (25-7) can beat the Cougars (25-8) in a battle of No. 14 seeds on Tuesday night at the First Four.

Where's the Outrage at 'X-Factor' Flasher?
Popular British reality singing competition "The X Factor" aired in the U.S. Sept. 21 to a TV audience of roughly 12 million, all tuning in to hear the raw pipes of undiscovered talent. But the studio audience, judges and Fox TV viewers got more than they bargained for, when an unassuming contestant let it all out on stage.
Much in the vein of American Idol, "The X Factor" show is a reality singing competition in which a panel of judges (including Simon Cowell and Paula Abdul from the original "American Idol" panel) determines which singer or group has "The X Factor" and can continue each week based on their live singing performances.
For comedic relief, producers allow a handful of not-so-talented contestants to get through the initial rounds in order to embarrass themselves in front of the audience and judges. In the spirit of American Idol, it makes for great TV. (Who doesn't remember "Pants on the Ground"?)
But the judges and audience members were shocked and outraged when contestant Geo Godley performed an original song titled "I'm a Stud" with accompanying pants-less choreography. When Godley got to the chorus and sang "I'm a stud! Roll out the red carpet, I'm a stud!" he dropped his pants and wiggled around, his crotch exposed, on stage for approximately 50 seconds.
No one attempted to stop him. The music continued for more than a minute. The camera showed audience members covering their mouths and eyes wide. Others were seen walking out.
One of those who refused to watch was judge Paula Abdul. An appalled Abdul pushed back her chair, stood up, and left the theater during Godley's performance.
At least the TV audience was spared actually having to see Godley's genitals; an "X Factor" logo blocked them on-screen. The original studio audience wasn't so lucky.
If Godley had dropped his pants and exposed his private area to a random passerby on the street, he'd be arrested. But when he was on stage at FOX, he was celebrated as a crazy contestant. "Factor" producers knew children were present, (even hosting a 13-year-old competing against Godley!) and yet they allowed the behavior to continue, uninterrupted for close to a minute - long after any genuine "surprise" in the act.
What's worse, producers not only allowed him to continue beyond a reasonable expectation of the performance being a genuine but they then aired the full performance to viewers during the season premiere. This "The X Factor" aired at 8 p.m., to more than 12 million viewers, and boasts contestants as young as 12 years old.
After Abdul's protest 45 seconds into the routine, the first bit of verbal reprimand came from judge Antonio "L.A." Reid, a full 56 seconds after Godley's performance ended. "Ok so listen," Reid began. "That was offensive. Disgusting. Distasteful. Upsetting. Get him outta the building, please." The audience cheered Reid's remarks, but Fox didn't find it "disgusting," "distasteful" or "upsetting" enough not to air the pre-taped performance.
The Parents Television Council filed a protest with the FCC. But, as of 24 hours later, the silence from the media was deafening. FOX aired the indecent exposure of a man's genitals to minors during a prime-time season premiere, during which viewership is high, and they have faced no scrutiny from the mainstream media. Is the liberal media that jaded?

do we know he exposed himself?
Submitted by OffTheLows on Fri, 09/23/2011 - 5:15pm.
but yeah, if he was truly flashing himself with children in the audience, it's inexcusable they let him continue his performance. he could have been wearing some skimpy underwear and for added shock value they did the censor image anyway. There's plenty of security on the show to protect the judges from angry contestants.

I think the outrage lies with those who viewed the show. For the rest of us who lost interest in American Idol after the first season's auditions came to an end, this Redux version has been off the radar for some time. Reports now are saying the guy was wearing a thong, which while embarrassing and somewhat inappropriate, isn't exactly illegal. Also it seems Ashton Kutcher had a similarly blacked out body part on the premier of 2 1/2 Men this past Monday. Has PTC filed a complaint against CBS too?

Hollywood is flat out of ideas and this is now what passes for entertainment. The only thing that they have not tried is to bring back the ancient gladiator fight to the death. They have the bread going well and now the circus is failing. Soon the bread will too but by that time the games will be all there is left and they will be feeding once again Christians and conservatives to the lions.
