Friday Tyrant - Pee on Water
Just tore over this story for like the 20th time since I first came across it for an issue of New York Tyrant. The issue was called Lady Tyrant and it was all stories written by women.Jul 31 2011 Giancarlo DiTrapano Stuff
Fuck Bears
Over the past decade or so bear admiration has become somewhat of a faddish gay subculture. Obviously, bears and bear-chasers have always been around, but as a visible phenomenon, the bear hasn't been very prevalent or (somewhat) accepted until the age of the Internet.Jul 25 2011 Giancarlo DiTrapano Stuff
Friday Tyrant - Mozipedia
Go on, call fag on me all you want for this and I won't care: I purchased the fuck out of Mozipedia: The Encyclopedia of Morrissey and The Smiths.May 13 2011 Giancarlo DiTrapano Stuff
Friday Tyrant - The Beast, Watered
I've grown oh so weary with humans and their human stories. Give me the pawing animal, the beast, chest out. Give me the instinct. Sam Michel sets his meat hook into you right at the nose. Then he tugs.Apr 15 2011 Giancarlo DiTrapano Stuff
Friday Tyrant - Scott McClanahan, Hick Christ
This post is destined to be one of those ones that, in years to come, people will go digging through the archives and find this article and be all, "Man, this fuckup knew way ahead of time what the situaish was with McClanahan."Apr 1 2011 Giancarlo DiTrapano Stuff

Friday Tyrant - The Gospel of Anarchy
Besides drawing a circle around the letter "A" on a few lockers at my junior high school (some circles contained the "A," some circles the "A" broke through), the amount of serious thought I've given to anarchism or anything at all political is at a bare minimum.Feb 11 2011 Giancarlo DiTrapano Stuff

Two Weeks in Umbria — Castellaro, Niccone Valley, Italy
Thinking about travel this summer? Here's a great experience from last year. Ursula and I flew to Rome and then drove up to a beautifully restored group of farm buildings which my mother had rented for the family and friends for two weeks.

Lebanon's new government agreed to a compromise policy statement on Friday that fell short of explicitly enshrining the militant group Hezbollah's role in confronting Israel but which would give all citizens the right to resist Israeli occupation or attacks.
The agreement on the compromise language came after weeks of dispute brought the government to the verge of collapse, and now paves the way for Prime Minister Tammam Salam to put his government to a vote of confidence.
Information Minister Ramzi Jreij told reporters that most ministers had agreed on a compromise statement that declares Lebanese citizens have the right to "resist Israeli occupation" and repel any Israeli attack.
The Israel-Lebanon border has been mostly quiet since Israel and Hezbollah fought in 2006, but Israeli forces still hold at least three pockets of occupied territory which are claimed by Lebanon.
"Based on the state's responsibility to preserve Lebanon's sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity and the security of its citizens, the government affirms the duty of the state and its efforts to liberate the Shebaa Farms and Kfar Shouba Hills and the Lebanese part of Ghajar through all legitimate means," the government statement said.
It also "affirms the right of Lebanese citizens to resist Israeli occupation and repel aggressions and recover occupied territory."
"There exists neither freedom nor sovereignty without the army, people and certainly the resistance," Industry Minister Hajj Hassan told the Lebanese National News Agency in reaction to the agreement.
Agreement on the declaration paves the way for Salam to put his government to a vote of confidence, almost exactly a year after he was first asked to try to put together a cabinet following the resignation of his predecessor, Najib Mikati.
The declaration reflected a compromise between the Hezbollah-led political coalition, which sought to guarantee Hezbollah's right to fight Israel and maintain its weapons arsenal, with political opponents who sought to disarm the resistance movement.
Tensions between Hezbollah and its opponents inside Lebanon have been sharply heightened by the civil war in neighboring Syria, where Hezbollah fighters have been battling alongside President Bashar al-Assad.
The deal was reached a few hours after Israel's army fired tank rounds and artillery into southern Lebanon in what it called retaliation for a bomb that targeted its soldiers patrolling the border. No injuries were reported on either side.
Israeli forces shell southern Lebanon
Israeli occupation forces on Friday fired shells into southern Lebanon after explosives were allegedly detonated near an army patrol along the border, state news reported.
Lebanon's National news agency said at least six shells struck areas between the villages of Kfar Shouba and Helta in southeast Lebanon, near the occupied Shebaa Farms.
Hezbollah's Al Manar television station said the shelling caused a field to catch fire, but reported no injuries.
The attack was likely in response to an alleged bombing targeting occupation forces on the border.
On 25 January Israeli warplanes attacked targets linked to Hezbollah on the Lebanese-Syrian border. Hezbollah pledged to respond to the Israeli attack "at the appropriate time and place."
The January attack was the first of its kind since the end of the 2006 Lebanese-Israeli war.
On 9 December, Israeli forces launched more than 30 artillery shells after saying two rockets were launched towards Israel from Lebanon.
A couple of days later, 16 December, a Lebanese soldier opened fire on an Israeli soldier, killing him. That was the most dangerous incident since 2010 when an Israeli soldier killed two Lebanese soldiers and a journalist.
In the Israeli-Lebanese war in 2006, 1,200 Lebanese and 160 Israelis were killed. Most of the Lebanese who died were civilians. Most casualties were Israeli army.
From 2006 until today rockets from Lebanon have been launched against Israeli targets but anonymous groups have claimed responsibility.
Clashes in Tripoli kill 9, injure 60
Renewed clashes between rival neighborhoods in the northern city of Tripoli Saturday raised the death toll to nine as dozens of families to fled to safer areas.
After a brief lull in the morning, sniper and mortal fire picked up again between Bab al-Tabbaneh and Jabal Mohsen, the Daily Star reported.
Mortars struck several homes along Syria Street, which separates the warring factions, prompting dozens of families to flee their homes for safer areas of the city.
The Army blocked the highway linking Tripoli to the northern region due to intensive sniper fire as soldiers continued to respond to sources of gunfire. Soldiers also blocked the Talaat al-Omari road and Al-Biqar-al-Jabal Street with barbed wire.
Schools and universities remained closed, with a few shops in unaffected areas remaining open. Armored vehicles were seen patrolling the deserted city streets.
Fighting erupted Thursday following the fatal shooting of Jabal Mohsen resident Walid Barhoum. Among those killed in clashes was a 10-year-old girl.
Militants from Bab al-Tabbaneh, a predominantly-Sunni neighborhood known for its support for the armed Syrian opposition, have engaged in multiple rounds of fighting with Alawite fighters from Jabal Mohsen, which enjoys strong links to the Syrian government.
The three-day clashes mark the 20th round of fighting in Tripoli since the Syrian conflict began in March of 2011.

System dynamics applicability to transportation modeling
AbstractThe main focus of this article is to review and evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of system dynamics (SD) with respect to its suitability and appropriateness in transportation modeling. This evaluation helps in appreciating how the SD modeling style can contribute to understanding better the relationships between elements of the transport system and between transport and its environment. It establishes the ease with which system dynamics can be applied to construct useful tools for testing alternative transport-related policies.

We all know that Kohler is the word when it comes to sinks and faucets. Well, this time it is a unique and exquisite Cervasse Prep Sink which is for bait. Designer Anne Kitzmiller has crafted a wonderful gizmo. I would hate calling it just a sink, because it is more than that. A prep sink is actually a utility device. The sink is not simply a sink, a kitchen working surface is also attached to it. This Prep Sink is obviously not as simple as it sounds. It is a gadget metamorphosized into a kitchen sink. Made of electronic interface, this one actually understands your commands with a touch of a button. Yes, you read that right. Press that button and you have your rinsing and disposing down, the sink does it for you.
Well, not quite that easily I may add. The button is a special one. Using Active Touch technology, the sink can differentiate between human and non-human touch. So you need not fret about your pans and pots commanding the sink for you. Just push the button, and a stream of water would gush down and the garbage would be disposed off nicely. Well, there is obviously a catch here. You might wonder about the signals it ought to give while performing these tasks. Do not worry, the short rinse cycle is understood through a constant glowing blue light and the following garbage disposal cycle is understood through a flashing blue light.
Well, this one is sure one in a million and I just hope that modern sinks turn more and more creative, thereby making the inhabitants lazy. So, how well this one would score over the humble sink would largely depend upon the moolah it is tagged with. Let us hope that the price is not as extra-ordinary as the features!.

Locke continues leading his group to the cabin. Sawyer asks him what he's talking about with the whole "I saw Walt" thing. Locke denies that it was a dream: "It was Walt. Only...taller." Sawyer: "Taller? What, like a giant?" Or like an adolescent with a couple of years' growth? Locke claims that Walt told him to prevent Naomi from bringing the rest of her people to the island, and that he didn't really ask any follow-up questions since he was lying in an open grave with a bullet in his gut that was conveniently placed there by Ben. Sawyer is as surprised as any of us that Locke was shot only a few days ago, but Locke shuts him up by raising his shirt and showing him the wound where the bullet entered his body -- and the other wound where it left. It apparently went right through where his kidney would have been had it not been stolen. I guess his father also stole most of his abdominal veins and arteries, and maybe a small chunk of his intestine. Locke's little show-and-tell seems to have shut everybody else up.
Jack, Kate, and Daniel have arrived at a rocky shoreline. Daniel sees a fellow Boatie lying on the ground near the ocean and starts calling his name (which is Miles). Jack runs down to Miles and starts to examine him (as a doctor would), when Miles pulls a gun on Jack. For my own sanity's sake, I'm going to assume that Miles was not just lying there for hours waiting to spring this ambush on someone, but that he had his own phone and knew Daniel was moving in his direction. Even though we never actually see that second phone. Oh, and Miles calls Jack "handsome." Daniel tries to explain that everything is fine and that gunplay is really not required. Kate slowly sidles up to Daniel, her eyes on his gun, but Miles tells her to back off. Jack uses Kate's name, so Miles decides to ask her where Naomi is. He's not put off by Kate's "who now?" non-response, referring to Naomi as the woman Kate killed. Kate has a couple of minutes to think up a good answer, as we cut to commercials.
Flashback! (I know some people think these might be flash-forwards, and I acknowledge that's a possibility -- but it seems highly unlikely to me, as Naomi knew about the discovery of the wreckage before she arrived on the island, and each flash-whatever scene in this episode is keyed to the discovery of the wreckage.) Miles parks in front of a cute bungalow in a modest-looking neighborhood while someone on the radio talks about the discovery of the wreckage. Miles takes a small suitcase out of this trunk, and knocks on the door of the house. A middle-aged black woman opens the door. He introduces himself as Miles Strong (or "Straum," maybe?) and reminds her that they spoke on the phone. She lets him in; as he enters, the camera pans across a photo hanging on the wall of a young black man. Miles asks the woman (Mrs. Gardner), "Which room is it?" She tells him it's upstairs, and he tells her he gets paid in advance and that the price is $200. So far, he's sounding like a prostitute. She points out that he quoted her a price of $100 (so make that "a cheap prostitute"), but he tells her the price went up after he learned that her grandson was murdered. That seems to make sense to Mrs. Gardner, and she fetches the cash -- which he crassly counts in front of her. He unpacks a small vacuum-cleaner-looking thing from his suitcase and tells her not to enter the room, regardless of what she hears. And then he heads up the stairs.

Landfills report up to 30% decline
Landfill managers said they knew something was amiss in the economy when they saw trash levels start steadily dropping last year. Some are reporting declines of up to 30 percent.
The Washington Post
Trash facts
In 2007, according to the EPA, Americans produced 254.1 million tons of household trash. Of that, by weight:
Paper and paperboard (packaging): 32.7 percent
Yard trimmings: 12.8 percent
Food scraps: 12.5 percent
Plastics: 12.1 percent
Metals: 8.2 percent
Rubber, leather and textiles: 7.6 percent
Wood: 5.6 percent
Glass: 5.3 percent
Other: 3.2 percent
63.3 million tons of trash were recycled; 21.7 million tons composted; 31.9 million tons burned. The rest, 137.2 million tons, wound up in landfills.
There are 1,794 landfills in the United States, down from 20,000 in the early 1970s. The EPA estimates they will be full in 20 years.
Between Thanksgiving and the new year, environmentalists said, Americans typically throw away up to 5 million extra tons of trash, thought to be mainly wrapping paper and shopping bags.
Source: The Washington Post
WASHINGTON — Along with the stock market and the foreclosure rate, a less-heralded barometer has signaled the arrival of hard times: the landfill.
In a wasteful society that typically puts 254 million tons of unwanted stuff at the curb to be thrown away each year, landfill managers said they knew something was amiss in the economy when they saw trash levels start steadily dropping last year. Some are reporting declines of up to 30 percent.
"The trash man is the first one to know about a recession because we see it first," said Richard Weber, manager of the Loudoun County, Va., landfill. "Circuit City's closing, so people aren't going there and buying those big boxes of stuff and throwing away all that Styrofoam and shrink-wrap ... and whatever they were replacing."
It's all part of the cycle of stuff that people in the trash business said they've seen in every economic downturn since the end of World War II.
People don't buy stuff, so there's less packaging — which typically makes up one-third of all landfill trash — to toss. With a drop in demand, manufacturers make less, creating less waste.
Effects of recession
More vacant homes and fewer people in a community mean less trash. A stagnant housing market means less construction debris. On tight budgets, people eat out less, so restaurants order less, so there's less to throw away. Landscapers are out of work, so there's less yard debris.
In Virginia, which takes in more out-of-state garbage than any state save one, trash professionals began noticing declines in late 2007 of 10 to 20 percent.
"And normally garbage is a pretty steady business because everybody wants to get rid of it," said Richard Doucette, a waste-program manager with the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality. Now, he said, some landfills are laying off workers.
Ben Boxer, spokesman for Fairfax County's solid-waste-management program, said the economy also is forcing people to heed the environmentalists' mantra: Reduce! Reuse! Recycle! Repair!
"A lot of these things that people throw away do have a valuable second life," he said, "especially for those who, now more than ever, are going to be facing difficult times."
In better times, Boxer has seen usable sofas crammed into garbage bins. But now, instead of ending up at the dump, stuff is being repaired and kept or traded on Web sites such as Freecycle.org, where up to 70,000 people a week have been registering to swap stuff since the recession officially began in the fall.
Rethinking stuff
Americans might not be saving string and rubber bands like their grandparents did during the Great Depression. But as the recession drags on, they are rethinking the way they use their plentiful stuff.
Auto repair. Appliance repair. Computer repair. Many such providers are reporting steady, if not increasing, business. "Right now, I have broken machinery everywhere," said Brian McElroy, a shop manager at Friendly Computers in Herndon, Va. "Some machines are on the verge of being boat anchors; they should throw them away instead of fix them."
In better times, Americans do toss them. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says 2 million tons of tech trash winds up in landfills each year, as do 100 million cellphones.
It comes as no surprise to economists that during recessions, consumers — whose spending drives 70 percent of the U.S. economy — choose to repair their stuff instead of throw it away.
Louis Johnston, an economist at the College of St. Benedict in Collegeville, Minn., combed through Commerce Department data and found that during recessions, people tend to spend 5 percent of their household budgets on repairs.
In good times, repair spending falls, in recent years to below 1 percent. "People need to know what the future's going to look like in order to plan for it," Johnston said. "The more uncertain it is, the more likely people are to just stop or walk in place."
That dictum might be seen most clearly with the stuff we wear. Retail sales have fallen or remained flat for the past five months. People aren't buying new clothes or donating their old ones.
Sales are up at Goodwill's nine Washington D.C. area thrift stores — 52 percent in January — but donations have fallen so much that the charity has been forced to advertise for them for the first time.
People aren't throwing clothes away, either. The EPA says Americans discarded 7 million tons of clothing and footwear in 2007.
But this year, more people are following Cathy Willis' example. Willis had a trunk of old sweaters and chose to "update" them instead of tossing them, donating them or buying something new.
She found Elinor Coleman, an expert "rebuttoner," and on a recent day the two huddled over a pile of sweaters and scads of vintage buttons to re-imagine her wardrobe.
Will the reuse and repair trend last in our throwaway society?
Julia Bovey, spokeswoman for the Natural Resources Defense Council, said yes. "I think we're seeing a change in culture."
However, Chaz Miller, director of state programs for the National Solid Wastes Management Association, predicted that once good times roll again, so will the garbage. "We, as individuals, tend to be very acquisitive," he said.
The most lasting change to the waste stream — manufacturers cutting down on packaging — was under way before the recession, he said, and will stick because it saves companies money.
Wal-Mart has promised to cut packaging by 5 percent. Amazon, McDonald's, Heinz and Coca-Cola all have redesigned products and packaging to reduce waste. Cadbury has come out with chocolate eco-eggs to reduce the amount of plastic used in packaging every year by more than 200 tons.

The Paper is the newest "reality" show on MTV and I tried to watch the first episode last night. I would like to say "don't bother" but I am a sucker for stupid reality shows that feature young people trying to act much older. The show follows the trials and tribulations of the staff for a high school newspaper (Cypress Bay High)as they work each week to get the latest edition printed and distributed. This first episode was about the selection for the next Editor-in-Chief.
Just to be frank, I cannot stand Amanda. Amanda is the bossy, goody goody who sucks up, stays home on Saturday night to finish her application essay and puts down the rest of the staff because she thinks that they are not as smart as she is. We all knew this girl in high school and she has come back to haunt us. Also, Amanda began the episode singing (contrived anyone?) and ended with a too smug look (over acting on reality television) on her face. Of course Amanda won the Editor post and the rest of the staff hates her. God this is good television.
The other staff members include Alex the managing editor, Gianna the news editor, Adam the advertising editor and Trevor the assistant business manager. Gianna and Trevor are dating and are constantly touching one another throughout their day. Alex is the typical curly haired doofus who loves sports (loves to watch never plays). And then there is Adam. I would bet my wedding ring that if he is not already Adam will come out of the closet. He is bitchy, loud and over dramatic. All the makings of a first class Diva and he is only a junior in high school.
So I watched the first episode and I will try for the second. For anyone who wants to relive the good ole high school days, check it out. Isn't it funny that the hair and clothes change but the actual people (or types there of) do not. We knew these kids in high school. We were these kids in high school. Now we get to laugh at these kids in high school.

Missing the cut means another lost weekend
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. -- For two full days, my man relied on me for advice. What's the yardage here? What club should I hit? Where's my aiming point? But as Roland Thatcher and I walked off the final green Friday, there was nothing left to say or do, no more information I could provide to be of any assistance. I removed the gold caddie bib embossed with the No. 1 to denote his Nationwide Tour leading money-winner status, lifted the golf bag one final time and squeezed it into the back of his car. Then I slammed the trunk shut, concluding our week together at the Chattanooga Classic.We missed the cut. Whoever said the role of professional caddie is neither glorious nor glamorous was mistaken. Such notions do exist at the highest level of the vocation. Just look at Steve Williams when he embraces Tiger Woods in a hearty bear hug following victory, or watch the smile that breaks across the face of Jim "Bones" Mackay when Phil Mickelson holes an important putt. Of course, those moments -- and those caddies -- are few and far between. Oftentimes, the pro jock's life is one fraught with disappointment and regret. Lost weekends are spent catching football highlights or carousing about the local haunts while associates ply their craft and, most importantly, fatten their wallets.
"It's awful," Thatcher muttered when I asked him about missing the cut. "It's absolutely awful."Now I know how he feels. The emboldened optimism that developed between Roland and me during the early part of our week together has been replaced by the bitter realization that at this time, on this course, in this tournament, we just weren't good enough. Scratch that. We were good enough. Our score wasn't. After posting an opening-round 3-under 69, we played the back nine first on Friday, making three birdies while climbing the leaderboard, only to limp home with a 75 that left us at even-par for the tournament. The worst part? Our downfall occurred almost entirely on one hole. The par-5 fourth is a 547-yard monster that bends from right to left as it nears the green. After overdrawing the tee shot, we found the ball nestled precariously above a fairway bunker. Thatcher's stance left his feet well below the ball, but we felt a well-struck hybrid could land us close to, if not on, the putting surface. It didn't happen. He lost his balance coming through, and the ball duck-hooked out of bounds. We dropped and hit the same club, only to find the front bunker. Then it was time for a Thomas Bjorn-like moment, needing three swipes from the trap before two-putting for a quadruple-bogey. So, yes, for you weekend hackers out there, the question, "How on earth did you make a 9?" also is applicable in the professional ranks. The answer: "I missed my putt for 8." "I had to sit back after finishing the hole and take a few seconds to count it up," Thatcher said, noting that we birdied three of the four par-5s on Friday but still played them in a collective 1-over-par. "It's been a long time since I made a 9 anywhere, much less on a hole where I was certainly thinking 3 or 4 on the tee box." The role of caddie is very much like that of professional golfer. Each job relies on talent, skill and experience in order to find success. The most important thing I learned in my debut was that it is not that difficult to be a professional caddie, but it is difficult to be a good one. Which got me to thinking: If Roland had a more talented, skilled and experienced man on the bag this week (like Tommy Brodersen, his regular caddie for the past four seasons), how much better would he have fared? So I asked him. Me: "I want you to be totally honest with me, I won't take any offense. If Tommy was on the bag this week, what would you have shot the past two days?" Thatcher: "Exactly the same. That's no B.S. The only thing Tommy and I really discuss completely is club selection, and I've got to say, I think club selection-wise, we did a pretty good job. ... Honestly, I think we worked pretty well together. Everything that went wrong was a result of me not placing the ball in proper relation to the hole and hitting some poor shots from some awkward situations." His words made me feel better -- but only slightly. After all, you can feel only so good when putting away the clubs on a Friday afternoon, knowing that another lost weekend is right around the corner. Jason Sobel is ESPN.com's golf editor.

This item will be downloaded electronically after checkout.
Migration is an inescapable issue in the public debates and political agendas of Western countries, with refugees and migrants increasingly viewed through the lens of security. This book analyses recent shifts in governing global mobility from the perspective of the politics of citizenship, utilising an interdisciplinary approach that employs politics, sociology, anthropology, and history.
Featuring an international group of leading and emerging researchers working on the intersection of migrant politics and citizenship studies, this book investigates how restrictions on mobility are not only generating new forms of inequality and social exclusion, but also new forms of political activism and citizenship identities. The chapters present and discuss the perspectives, experiences, knowledge and voices of migrants and migrant rights activists in order to better understand the specific strategies, tactics, and knowledge that politicized non-citizen migrant groups produce in their encounters with border controls and security technologies. The book focuses the debate of migration, security, and mobility rights onto grassroots politics and social movements, making an important intervention into the fields of migration studies and critical citizenship studies.
Citizenship, Migrant Activism and the Politics of Movement will be of interest to students and scholars of migration and security politics, globalisation and citizenship studies.

HRC Urges Top Law Firms Not to Take up House Defense of DOMA
March 23, 2011 by Michael Cole-Schwartz
Now that House Speaker John Boehner has announced that the House will intervene to defend the Defense of Marriage Act in court, one of the critical questions is who will represent the House? Capitol Hill sources have indicated that the House General Counsel's office may not be able to do the job adequately, so outside counsel may be brought it.

The biaryl unit is a fundamental feature of a large number of nonlinear optical materials and liquid crystals. Unsymmetrical biaryls (see figure) have been shown to be of particular interest, exhibiting amongst other things a high electro-optic coefficient. The synthesis of the new unsymmetrical biaryls involves the palladium-complexcatalyzed coupling of an organometallic derivative with an aromatic halide.

text: I've been studying web development for almost a year and I recently switched from hosting my files on the local file system to using a localhost, WAMP. One thing I'm not sure about is whether or not it's OK to leave WAMP on while I'm not using it. Is that OK? My concern is that it might interfere with the normal operation of the computer but I don't know if that's true. What do you guys do?
