TOM BEAN -- A Tom Bean teen is facing charges after police say he came to class high on synthetic marijuana.
The 17-year-old was arrested at Tom Bean High School earlier this week.
Police say he brought synthetic marijuana to school and smoked it on campus.
The drug -- also known as K-2 and Spice -- is illegal in Texas and Oklahoma.
Police say the side effects of smoking synthetic marijuana can be deadly.
"We try to get people awareness and tell them, 'Hey, this stuff is back into the community. Pay attention to your kids. Talk to your kids. Let them know,'" chief Frank Deater said. "It's not tobacco. This has got a chemical substance in it that will change and alter their life forever."
The teen was charged with public intoxication and possession of drug paraphernalia, which is a third degree felony because police say it happened on school property.

I phone and get stuff mailed out to me from this wonderful shop. I once had an amazing friend from Iran who had the most beautiful complexion. When she came back from visiting her folks back in Tehran, she brought me back some 'dry soap' called sefidab. It's like white balls of chalk and you break wee bits off it and rub it on to your wet face. It's the best exfoliating product I've ever used....more
This is a grocery store, not restaurant. The Persian pastries lined up on the counter are beautiful but a bit stale - my hungover self devoured them nonetheless. Stop in if you're walking by.more
Lovely shop with a lot to look at. Everything is ordered nicely and I could go around for hours to browse the goods.more
I could browse through this magical shop for hours! There are just so many interesting things to look at, laid out invitingly across two rooms and including all sorts of dry goods, tinned dishes and other goodies like jars of giant olives, fruit tobacco, interesting cheeses, ornate backgammon sets and much, much more.
Owner Sally Butcher is really friendly and happy to help with any...more
For Middle Eastern fetishists, Persepolis is a must-visit shop. Although really more specifically an Iranian specialty stop, it's still the place to find delicacies from the region. Lots of fresh tasty pastries and sweets with rotating availability, all sorts of spices, an amazing variety of tea, plus different yoghurts and cheeses to far surpass any ethnic corner shop. They also sell...more

I have been taking Liquid Chlorophyll for about six weeks now and I have noticed a marked improvement in my health. I have seasonal allergies, which affects my lungs and makes it hard to breathe (tight chest and wheezing) and I have noticed since taking this product, my chest does not tighten up anymore and I can breathe better. It must be the elevated oxygen levels in my blood that Liquid Chlorophyll provides. Some other benefits I have noticed is a reduced craving for sweets, regular bowl movements, ease of digestion, faster hair and nail growth and a reduction in body fat around my mid-section; again probably due to the high levels of oxygen. When researching this product on the internet, I found this statement to be true - "Chlorophyll is high in oxygen. The brain and all body tissues function at an optimal level in a highly-oxygenated environment. A highly-oxygenated environment can also be beneficial for weight loss." I will always keep this product around!!!

The Now Foods liquid chlorophyll is very powerful and does detox the system. However, I rated it down because it contains a bunch of extra ingredients that I am not interested in taking. I was hesitant to try this liquid cholrophyll because it has mint and I hate mint. It does taste strongly of mint, as well. I prefer more natural things and actually do like chlorophyll with no buffer or filler ingredients to mask the green taste. But the biggest reason that I rated this product down (because I know peppermint is good for you) is because of the vegetable glycerin. There is simply too much, and it makes it syrup-y in consistency and stains everything in its path. There is a funny sweetness to it due to the veggie glycerin that I don't like. Also, and more importantly, I felt that the alkalizing effects of the chlorophyll were weakened by this inclusion of this filler--at least for me. So, yes it does detox and all, but the veggie glycerin creates a terrible consistency and weird, strangely sweet/green/minty taste that I don't particularly like. I prefer another brand found on iherb which is much more natural (green) and does not contain filler/buffer ingredients.

Cairo clouds/
Very rare blue skies in our usually polluted city.
(Happy Mother's Day!)
Very rare blue skies in our usually polluted city.
(Happy Mother's Day!)
Mada Masr has just published my review of two new books about Cairo that focus on the relationship between political upheaval and the urban environment. CLUSTER's book Archiving The City in Flux is an excellent, eloquent introduction to informality -- the many ways that Cairenes use public spaces despite, or outside, government regulation -- in the city.
Nagati and Stryker argue that what happened in January 2011 was the result of "decades of the urbanization of injustice." What happened after the uprising was the temporary breakdown of the state's heavy-handed presence, for better and for worse. One informal neighborhood took the unprecedented step of connecting itself to Cairo's ring road by building its own access ramp. Others have taken advantage of the chaos to engage in less civic behavior, from petty crime to riding motorcycles on sidewalks.
The proliferation of street vendors in downtown Cairo — where they occupy growing swaths of the sidewalk and the street, poach business from shops and blast music from speakers — is one of the case studies included in "Archiving the City in Flux." It is a hugely contentious issue and a litmus test for people's political attitudes and their class prejudices. For some, street vendors represent a much-dreaded lower-class chaos (interestingly, they attract a level of disapprobation that triple-parked Mercedes don't seem to). For others, they are "the people," struggling to make a living and challenging the authority of the state.
The CLUSTER team's work exposes the unfair stigmatization of lower-class informality while not romanticizing every example of people laying claim to a bit of this crowded, competitive city as an act of admirable political subversion. Their approach is empathetic yet empirical. They measured what percentage of sidewalk in downtown Cairo is occupied by street vendors (64 percent). They created a map showing where marches to Tahrir originated from, and they catalogued the changing products sold there (from cotton candy to gas masks to, during extended sit-ins, pillows). They used time-lapse photography to document how sidewalk stalls evolve throughout the day. They drove along the ring road charting where microbus stops, tea stalls, mechanics and staircases have been created by the local communities that were originally encircled but not served by the freeway.
You can see the full text of both Archiving the City in Flux and Learning from Cairo online here.
Lovely piece by Nael Shama in Le Monde Diplomatique on how Morsi and other Egyptian presidents did not understand Cairo, unlike Nasser who made it the centerpiece of his modernist societal project:
Only Nasser — who clipped the wings of the aristocracy and uplifted the poor, creating a viable middle class — bonded with Cairo. The expansion in education and health services and the establishment of an industry-oriented public sector gave rise to, and consolidated, Egypt's middle class in the 1950s and 1960s. In 1956, he vowed steadfastness against the tripartite aggression (Suez) from the rostrum of the widely revered Al-Azhar mosque, in the heart of Cairo's old Islamic city. "I am here in Cairo with you and my children are also here in Cairo. I did not send them away [for protection from air raids]," he said, to affirm his loyalty to the city.
Nasser did not travel much during his reign. He was not a big fan of the tourist retreats of Egypt's pre-revolution aristocracy. He stayed in Cairo, and there he died. In the autumn of 1970, Nasser resided for a few days in Cairo's posh Nile Hilton during the emergency Arab summit convened to put an end to the bloody Palestinian-Jordanian conflict — Black September. On the night of September 27th, on the balcony of his hotel room that overlooked River Nile, Kasr El-Nil Bridge and the lights of the city that never sleeps, he told his friend Mohamed Heikal: "This is the best view in the world." On the following day, he died.
A passionate and beautifully written defense of the choice to live in Cairo (addressed to all the worried relatives and acquaintances who want the author to "come on home" now.)
I translate this paragraph below:
En dépit des difficultés connues de la capitale égyptienne (poussière, pollution, chaleur, harcèlement, instabilité politique), vivre au Caire n'est pas une lubie. Surtout si ce choix s'inscrit dans la durée. Les étés au Caire sont chauds mais ses hivers sont doux comme les printemps dans le sud de la France. Ses journées sont bruyantes et peuplées, mais ses nuits sont de loin les plus fabuleuses de la région. Paris se couche à 2 heures les soirs de week-end quand Le Caire veille jusqu'à l'aube tous les soirs, indifférente aux débuts, aux milieux et aux fins de semaine. Là où Paris se tasse dans des 2 pièces de 25 mètres carré, Le Caire se repait d'espace, d'appartements aux plafonds hauts, aux terrasses ensoleillées. Quand on a la chance d'y gagner sa vie en euros, on n'a pas à penser à l'argent au Caire, on n'est pas obligé de compter pour dépenser, et en plus, on se retrouve avec du temps sur les bras, pour écrire, lire, nager, repeindre le salon. Et puis il y a des gens au Caire, des gens que précisément on ne risque de croiser ni à Paris ni à New York, des gens qui ont à la fois quelque chose en plus et une case en moins, des gens qui ne se sentent à leur place nulle part, qui n'ont ni de certitude, ni d'aptitude au confort, ni peur d'être d'éternels débutants.
Despite the well-known difficulties of the Egyptian capital (dust, pollution, heat, harassment, political instability), living in Cairo isn't a whim. Especially if it's a long-term choice. Summers in Cairo are hot but winters are as mild as springs in the south of France. Its days are noisy and crowded, but its nights are by far the most fabulous in the region. Paris goes to bed at 2am on weekends while Cairo stays up till dawn every night, at the beginning, middle and end of the week. While Paris stuffs itself into two 25-square-meter rooms, Cairo revels in space, in high-ceilinged apartments with sunny terraces. If you are lucky enough to earn your living in euros, you don't need to worry about money in Cairo, and what's more you find yourself with time on your hands, to write, read, swim, repaint the living-room. And then there are people in Cairo, precisely the kind of people who you won't come across in Paris or New York, people who have a little something extra and a little something off, people who don't feel at home anywhere, who have no certainties, no aptitude for comfort, no fear of being eternal beginners.
Sixth of October Bridge is missing parts of its railing. Although only one armored vehicle was fell off it.
With one eye on the railing rather than the road and another on his phone, my cousin searched for a scandalous picture on his phone. "I found it! Look at actress Elham Shaheen sleeping naked next to Mahmoud Abdel Aziz!" he said, showing us a blurry picture of a clothed Menna Shalabi and Kareem Abdul Aziz cuddling under a blanket that's only a few inches short of their neck.
"And then she gets mad when Abdullah Badr calls her a whore," my father said, shaking his head, and passed the phone to my uncle to see.
"Oh, it's art! It has a message within the dramatic context; it's purposeful!" my uncle quoted the common intellectual defense of nudity in films in a singsong manner.
"The message is: I am a whore," my cousin replied. They guffawed.
The laughter died once the Ministry of Finance finally came into view, it was reportedly attacked by MB supporters on Wednesday night with Molotov cocktails. 24 hours later, parts of the building were on fire again. On the seventh floor, bright yellow and orange flames were dancing unfettered by the three fire trucks parked in front of the building. The firefighters, distracted by their sandwiches, had pointed their hoses a tad too low, accidentally watering the shrubbery in front of the ministry instead of putting out the fire.Read More
The radio program The World just ran a piece I did on the Cairo arts scene and particularly on how artists are taking advantage of the current chaos/freedom to use public spaces they were barred from before and to connect with new audiences.
The piece discusses the recent Downtown Contemporary Arts Festival and an installation by Ganzeer and Yasmine El Ayat.
I also spoke to several other artists, but due to time constraints, those conversations didn't make it into the piece.
Artist Hady Kamar, for example, took time to chat with me about the difficulties of defining "revolutionary" art and the reasons behind the (modest but noticeable) increase in new arts spaces and initiatives in Cairo.
"I think a lot of people are doing more now on their own because a lot of the promises of the revolution weren't fulfilled, " Kamar said. "For example, openness -- societal openness or just a political openness. You can only rely on yourself and you can't sit around relying on [the fact that] the government is going to assist with this or we're going to become a place where there are going to be a lot of cultural spaces, without people taking it on themselves and doing it themselves. "
Kamar is one of the artists behind the charming new Nile Sunset Annex, a one-room exhibition space (in an apartment/studio in Garden City) that puts on a monthly show of physical (as opposed to digital) work and that, in my view, plays with the boundaries between professional art-making and other forms of creativity and craftsmanship, as well as those between genres (in the two shows I've gone to I've seen drawing, music, furniture replicas and embroidery).
The other artists I had the pleasure of meeting recently is Amira Hanafy, who did a piece entitled Mahdy's Walk for the gallery Art Ellewa (in the informal neighborhood of Ard Ellewa). In fact, I am part of Hanafy's piece, an aural portrait of the area made up of conversations with residents and visitors, recorded while following a circuit through the neighborhood. The walk took in one of the remaining open fields in the area, a patch of emerald-green barsoum that will undoubtedly be gone in a few years (there are already half-built apartment blocks standing on its edge) and the sound collage features conversations about the area's history, break-neck development and problems: land speculation, security, garbage collection.
While not all art can (or need) be socially or politically engaged, this particular moment in Egypt is such that many artists are both looking for new models to organize and sustain themselves and for ways to break out of Cairo's small alternative gallery scene and engage wider audiences. Hanafy's piece and the work at Art Ellewa generally is a great example of art that is embedded in, and relevant to, the community that surrounds it.
www.cuipcairo.org is a new website that acts as a central repository of information on events, initiatives, organizations and more that have to do with Cairo's built environment. Bookmark them, there's an events calendar function that has recently been added and is very handy for tracking what's going on about town. More info available in this PDF.
I've written something on the London Review of Books blog about the last few weeks -- and the dispirited, unsettled mood -- in Cairo.
I start by describing a little unwanted detour I had to take recently.
The street lamps on the Kasr El Nil bridge are out. The Semiramis hotel is battered and shuttered: during the latest round of clashes the hotel was looted by a well-armed mob that showed up one night at 2 a.m. The staff called the army and the police, in vain. As our taxi turns the corner by the Semiramis – on the edge of Tahrir Square, a few minutes from the American Embassy – there's a crowd of young men in the street in front of us. A boy with a keffiyeh wrapped around his mouth winds up his arm and lets loose, aiming squarely at our windscreen – but his hand is empty, he's just joking. Another boy waves us through. The first boy comes running over and, hanging on the open window, yells at the driver. I'm too flustered to catch what he says, but it's clear we won't be let through. We head back to the bridge, back across the Nile, up the other side and home by a different bridge.
And go on to discuss how masked teenagers closing down major thoroughfares for kicks is the mildest form of the trouble we're in.
✚ In Latitude: Shortening the Workday is No Way to Regulate Cairo
This week, my Latitude post looks at the recent decision by Egyptian authorities to impose earlier closing times. I am against this — not in the absolute, but because the decision has been hastily prepared, Here's the crux of my reasoning:
This is why the government's recent decision — made without public consultation or forewarning — to impose closing times on shops, cafés and restaurants nationwide came as such a shock. The authorities argue that forcing stores to close early will save electricity, something of a necessity because Egypt is constantly on the brink of brownouts. (This summer there were even prolonged blackouts when the national grid collapsed because of air-conditioner use). The curfew, it is hoped, will also improve traffic by sending people home early, and impose order on residential areas that are otherwise kept awake at night by street noise.
At least that's the theory. Shopkeepers, chambers of commerce, business associations and much of the opposition to the Muslim Brotherhood-dominated government say the decision will hurt an already struggling economy. Many also fear that enforcing strict closing times will only exacerbate the traffic problem, at least at certain times — especially since the government intends to impose the new rule without preparation. Metro and bus service has not been increased, for instance, and no special provisions have been made to accommodate shorter working days, like increased parking space.
After the government's original deadline for closing most shops at 10 p.m. and restaurants at midnight — Nov. 1 — came and went with nary a change in behavior, it relented. It pushed back the curfew for shops to midnight and the deadline for implementation to next week. Some restaurants and bars will also get to stay open till 2 a.m.
Read the whole thing, of course.
Friend-of-the-blog and fellow gentleman flaneur Matt Hall has a new piece at PRINT magazine about Cairo's hectic printing district alongside Mohammed Ali St, which is where one gets business cards and other office stationary. The article is not online (you can get a copy of the mag through the link above though) but Matt has some extra material up on this blog he contributes to:
An excerpt:
When Flaubert travelled to Egypt in 1849 in the guise of an oriental adventurer, the famous novelist accompanied his friend Maxime du Camp to the summit of great pyramid. Precluding any sense of a pioneering accomplishment, Flaubert reached the summit at dawn only to find pinned to the capstone… a business card.
The light increases. There are two things: the dry desert behind us, and before us an immense, delightful expanse of green, furrowed by endless canals, dotted here and there with tufts of palms; then, in the background, a little to the left, the minarets of Cairo and especially the mosque of Mohamed Ali (imitating Santa Sophia), towering above the others. On the side of the Pyramid lit by the raising sun I see a business card: 'Humbert, Frotteur' fastened to the stone.
The card gave a Rouen address, Flaubert's hometown. It had been placed there as a gag by Maxime.
My own contribution to the wonders of Egyptian business cards will be a lot less literary. I recently found this one, for an upholsterer, while cleaning out my desk:
Flaubert might have approved.
Voices and Faces of the Adhan: Cairo | Trailer from Scott F. Busch on Vimeo.
This film about the call to prayer in Cairo sounds cool — it looks at the project to unify the Adhan (on the grounds that the cacophony of different mosques was disagreable, I suppose). I actually love hearing the dissonant Adhans of Cairo, particularly when in the medieval part of the city (which has a high density of mosques with high minarets) — it can be a very beautiful thing to hear all of these calls, precisely because they are not in sync. I wonder if the question of noise pollution might not be better handled by improving the quality of speakers mosques use (the distortion they cause can be awful) or better yet, not using amplification altogether.
The directors have a Kickstarter campaign to raise funds to finish the film — help out here.
Speaking of the geography of the current street protests in Cairo, and my observations from this morning and this afternoon, here's a quick map that shows much of the city is now cordoned off.
Update: I've corrected some errors on the original map and added a couple of more details. See also this latest post on the fighting moving to Nubar Street, and some history of the names of these streets.
I went down to the warzone near the Interior Ministry this morning around 9am. There were a lot fewer people, but still a few hundreds out (no doubt their numbers will increase throughout the day.) The fighting stopped last night on Mansour Street, but seems to be moving to a second front on Nubar Street one block over. Once again I got close to the ministry as conscripts were eating their breakfast and cleaning crews were coming in and there are more truck-fulls of Central Security Forces and Army APCs. Everyone was just loitering around, the on the frontline barricades a few CSF were standing guard.
To get around the barricades you have to go around on the sidestreets of the Abdin neighborhood, and you see pretty much the same thing on the hand. Protestors having breakfast (it's amazing that even in the thick of the fighting the ambulant salesman are still there, selling sticky sesame-studded date bread and other goods), cleaning crews (one rather amusingly wearing a Halliburton uniform) and of course TV camera crews. The crowds, as they were, seemed to have moved to Nubar Street but were not engaged in any clashes when I was there, keeping a distance from the CSF barricade. Noubar Street is narrower than Mansour Street and appears to have seen some looting, notably at a small computer mall complex whose windows have been broken. People seemed to think that was the new center of fighting, and despite the calm, said there were sporadic clashes.
I thought that since the world is leaning about Downtown Cairo's street names, some history might be in order. The neighborhhood were the clashes have taken place is an administrative one and contains several ministries other than the interior ministry, as well as parliament, and the nearby (lower on Mansour Street, across from the ministry) beautifully renovated new office of the Freedom and Justice Party's MPs.
Mohammed Mansour Pasha was a two-time prime minister of Egypt, first as a member of the Liberal Constitutional Party and then for the Wafd.
Mansour Pasha could refer either to an Ottoman Sultan of Egypt (1642-44) or, more likely, a short-lived Minister of the Interior (1879) according to the ministry's own website. This is more likely because the neighborhood dates from that period and most streets bare the names of contemporary officials.
Nubar Pasha was Egypt's first prime minister (and served two more times) and an Armenian from Izmir, in modern Turkey. He was quite a fascinating character, and is associated with Khedive Ismail's accumulation of debts from the construction of the Suez Canal and lavish spending (such as building palaces to entertain Napoleon III's wife, Eugenie) that eventually brought Egypt under direct British control. Nubar Pasha collaborated with France and Britain, Egypt's biggest lenders, to reduce the power of the Khedive and begin the transformation of the country into a constitutional monarchy.
Here's a take on the recent events in Egypt by Nate Wright, an Arabist reader and Cairo-based freelance journalist. My own take coming up soon. Update: see this map to get a better idea of where's where.
After a week of violent clashes between protesters and police forcesin November, the military moved in and built a concrete wall betweenthe two parties on Mohamed Mahmoud street, the main thoroughfarerunning from Tahrir Square towards the Ministry of Interior. Lastnight, activists toppled the wall using metal beams and ropes, and thebattle lines were dramatically shifted.
Now, police officers are facing down protesters on Mansour street.It's a good distance from Tahrir but a lot closer to the Ministry ofInterior. The sight of tear gas raining down, motorcycles ferrying outthe wounded and protesters standing their ground recalls the clashesin November on Mohamed Mahmoud street and again in December on anearby street. But these similarities mask the changing geography of the battle.
Mansour street is straighter and wider, making it a lot easier forspectators to watch from a distance. The slight bend in MohamedMahmoud street meant that in order for people to see the tear gasthemselves, they often had to be fairly close to the front lines. WhenI walked down Mansour street this evening it was clogged withthousands of people -- many more than I'd ever seen on Mohamed Mahmoud.
Our own Ursula Lindsey will be joining our friend Jack Shenker (of the Guardian) and others at the Contemporary Image Collective in Cairo to discuss Jack and Philip Jason (sorry!) Larkin's text and photo publication on urban planning in the Egyptian capital, Cairo Divided. See below for details.
January 18 2012, 7 pm
Hosted by Megawra and CIC
Jack Shenker presents 'Cairo Divided' together with Wafaa Nadim, Ahmed Zaazaa, Ursula Lindsey and Mohamed El-Shaheed
Amid an uncertain tide of political change, the controversial 'satellite cities' project is dramatically transforming peripheries into new urban centres and consigning old focal points to a life on the margins. Against the backdrop of national revolution, photographer Jason Larkin and writer Jack Shenker collaborated for two years to produce 'Cairo Divided', a free hard-copy publication exploring the capital's rapidly-mutating urban landscape.
Please visit the project's website for more details.
From Cairobserver, a site about Cairo's urban heritage and one of the best new Egypt-based blogs of 2011:
Take the lift at Cairo Tower to the top and look at the skyline. Besides the TV&Radio building from the 1960s and the ministry of foreign affairs from the 1990s, a couple of bank towers, the rest are hotels, mostly built with Gulf investments during Mubarak's tenure. What does that tell us about Egypt, about Cairo? There are no condo towers for the wealthy because they opted to go suburban, there are few or no office towers (besides the two Sawiris towers further north) because most businesses that aren't multi-nationals are too small to rent space in an actual office tower so they rent cheap-rent residential apartments. Big telecommunication companies don't need office towers in Cairo because they went to the desert and built their own "Smart Village." And media companies also went to the desert and built "Media City." The skyline isn't telling of a very healthy economy. The kinds of investments that typically make a city work have all abandoned the city.
The result of decades of petrodollar and comprador capitalism...
Here's an exercise in how I think the votes in the proportional part of Egypt's parliamentary elections will be calculated. Let's take the beautiful district of Kasr al-Nil — the Fighting Lions! — where The Arabist is based, covering parts of Downtown Cairo and the tony island of Zamalek. This district slants liberal compared to the rest of the country. These are the results that have been published in the press:
To give you an idea of how complicated the voting process is because of the mixed system used — 1/3 individual candidaies with two seats per district (one each for professional and worker/peasant) and 2/3 for party lists — here are pictures of the ballots being used for a central Cairo district (the pictures were taken inside the polling station on Port Said St, Sayeda Zeinab district)
The first one shows the individual candidacies, which voters have to choose two candidates from — among 122 possibilities:
Much easier is the party list ballot, from which they choose one party out of 16:

A former Groveland man was sentenced to 12 years, seven months in prison on child pornography charges.
According to the U.S. attorney's office, Judge Lawrence J. O'Neill sentenced Nicholas Gregory Halvorson, 31, who pleaded guilty in January to receiving and sharing more than 1,400 images depicting minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct from September 2006 to December 2007. He was charged Nov. 4, 2010.
"Today's prison sentence is fitting for someone who robs children of their innocence and continues to sexually exploit them by producing and trading the illegal images with predators around the world," said Kim Wong, resident agent in charge of Homeland Security Investigations in Stockton.
HSI, a division of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, handled the case.

The Center for Responsive Politics tracks the amount of money spent on political races in the United States and has reported that $2.5 billion will be spent on this year's elections.

Yes, there's an election coming up, but that's not what makes today's infographic worth highlighting.
What are the most common job skills for Obama and Romney supporters? PayScale's infographic breaks it down.
College students are not expected to make a huge splash in this election. Part of this belief stems from anecdotal articles, but it's also based on polling by the Pew Research Center and others.
Where the issues are really resonating....
Popular book-rating website Goodreads has created an infographic about their users' preferences related to political parties. The site asked their readers who they would vote for in the upcoming election, then analyzed their literary tastes.
With the popular vote so close this election, eyes are on swing states even more than usual.
Americans will be voting for their new president on Tuesday, and a new infographic looks at how voters are consuming and sharing information on their mobile phones that pertains to the campaigns of the candidates, Barack Obama and Mitt Romney.
In just a few weeks, election day will be upon us. When November 6 rolls around, will you know where to vote and how it works?
With the evolution of the mobile technology, it is safe to say the 2012 election can be named the Mobile election.
An election cycle already renowned for partisan rhetoric has apparently divided pop-culture worlds as well. At least, that's if an infographic published by StumbleUpon and Visual.ly is to be believed.

There was a time when actor Shia LaBeouf was a fast rising star in the world of Hollywood, landing roles in movies with Will Smith, Harrison Ford and even Michael Bay. He was hitting with the big names in movies but all of that has come crashing down in the most bizarre series of events that has now resulted in the actor announcing he's retiring.
Following the plagiarism accusations and the backlash that stemmed from it, LaBeouf has decided that it's time for him to retire and he tweeted such a message out to his Twitter followers on Friday.
In light of the recent attacks against my artistic integrity, I am retiring from all public life.
— Shia LaBeouf (@thecampaignbook) January 10, 2014
This may end up being some weird Andy Kauffman, Joaquin Phoenix stunt from LaBeouf, but it's yet to be seen. There is clearly something going on with the actor, whether it be something in his personal life or whatever, that has him acting out like this. He's always been an aggressive person like this, dating back to the days where he lashed out against Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull to showing up stumbling drunk at a Walgreen and now this plagiarism scandal.
LaBeouf has a few movies lined up in the near future, from Lars Von Trier's erotic thriller Nyphomaniac to the Brad Pitt WWII movie Fury but his involvement in both is unknown. Fury is still in production which means if LaBeouf has indeed retired form acting, even more people are going to wind up placing him on their not so nice side.

Rosie ODonnell
Clearly not performing as was hoped, Rosie O'Donnell will soon be a part of the Oprah Winfrey run television station no more.
The comedic TV personality - who turns 50-year-old next week - will host the last episode of "The Rosie Show" on The Oprah Winfrey Network on March 30th.
Their relationship is certainly on the fast track, and Rosie O'Donnell is now engaged to marry girlfriend Michelle Rounds!
The news comes thanks to an insider having revealed that the talk show host broke the news to her studio audience during a taping this past Friday (December 2).
She's got a lot on her plate in the coming weeks, but Rosie O'Donnell has found the time to focus on her love life.
The "A League of Their Own" actress introduced her new girlfriend, Michelle Rounds, on Monday night (September 19) at O'Donnell's annual Rosie Theater Kids Gala in New York City.
Ready to start a new chapter in both her personal and professional life, Rosie O'Donnell has opened up about her "happier" future in the October issue of O, The Oprah Magazine, on newsstands September 13.
While she was once named the "Queen of nice," the 49-year-old former "View" co-host recalled the less than peaceful moments she shared with Elisabeth Hasselbeck during her stint on the hit talk show.
There are going to some big changes around Oprah Winfrey's OWN Network in the upcoming months, and Rosie O'Donnell recently announced that she's going to be a part of the new direction.
Taking to her blog on Monday night (March 28), the "A League of Their Own" actress revealed via video blog, saying, "I just wanted to say hi, and I'm coming to Chicago. It's a huge thrill for me, and I'm beyond the beyond."
She dated Tracy Kachtick-Anders for a year, but now Rosie O'Donnell is a single woman once again.
The lesbian lovers decided mutually to call it quits, though they still live next door to each other in Nyack, New York.
He made history earlier today (July 29) for being the only current president to ever make an appearance on a day-time talk show, and now President Obama's decision to do so is being talked about.
Of his sit-down with the ladies of "The View," Rosie O'Donnell said, "I have mixed feelings about that," she explained on her Sirius XM radio show.
Showing off her fresh romance, Rosie O'Donnell and a new partner were spotted out in Miami, Florida on Tuesday (December 29).
The former talk show host is now dating a Texas based artist named Tracy Kachtick-Anders, after revealing in November that longtime partner Kelli Carpenter moved out of their home two years ago.
It's been two years since she split with longtime lover, and Rosie O'Donnell says she is still adjusting to being alone.
The stand-up comedienne recently told press, "I'm not [enjoying the single life]. But on we grow, so to speak."
Surprise, surprise. Rosie O'Donnell has opened her big mouth again to bash her former View co-star Elisabeth Hasselbeck as well as Donald Trump.
It all happened aboard the cruise (for gay and lesbian families) organized by O'Donnell that went from New York City to a private island in the Bahamas. Reportedly there were 1500 people on the ship that heard Rosie's little tirade.

AN emphasis on having fun is the main focus for Mudgee Wombats colts coach Tim Burgess and manager Tom Flynn.
The Wombats return to the Blowes Clothing Cup competition in 2014 after a six-year absence with teams in first grade, second grade and colts.
First grade and second grade have been playing in the Australian National Field Days - now the GrainCorp Cup - northern conference for the last few seasons.
But the colts side has been non-existent since the Wombats dropped to the second tier competition for the 2008 season.
Mudgee's under 17s was the closest thing to a colts side the club had but they played in the Central West Junior Rugby Union competition.
"A lot of the youngsters who played in the teams with me, there was no pathway after that," Burgess said. "They had to play league up to the 18s or have a couple years off and join the senior ranks."
Now those players have the opportunity to continue to "play with their mates" in the colts side.
"In keeping the players to play union, the colts is obviously a really good stepping stone to get them to a senior level and obviously keep the club building," he said.
"It is a really good opportunity for the club and the youngsters in town.
"A lot of the 17s from last year are happy to step up, quite a few of the league boys are happy to come over. I've spoken to a few overseas players who are keen to come over on working holidays to play. Apprentices in the mines who will be happy to play for us."
According to Flynn, the colts years were the best and most enjoyable ones in a player's rugby career.
"Given the age of the blokes you are playing with, you are basically playing with your mates," Flynn said.
"Tim and I will be trying to push that, we want them to enjoy the season with their mates, we will try make it a good social scene for them as well.
"Regardless of standards, we want blokes. If we wanted the best side we would go out and find the best side but all we want is a good group of mates who want to enjoy the season."
In 2007, the last year Mudgee had a colts team, the Wombats finished ninth out of 11 teams, above Forbes and Dubbo Rhinos.
Mudgee had four wins, 11 losses, a draw and three bonus points from their 16 matches.

Victor Davis Hanson: Postmodern Class Warfare
Victor Davis Hanson is a classicist and historian at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University, and the author, most recently, of The End of Sparta, a novel about ancient freedom. © 2011 Tribune Media Services, Inc.
When President Obama's approval rating hit 40 percent, he fumed at "billionaires and millionaires," "fat-cat bankers," and "corporate-jet owners." In his sloppy targeting, Obama doesn't care much that a billionaire has 1,000 times more than a millionaire — or that his new tax proposals will take a lot more from those making $200,000 than from the few making $1 million.
Instead, the president is in a populist frenzy to rev up his base against "them," who supposedly "are not paying their fair share." The president's argument apparently is not that the top 5 percent haven't paid enough in taxes. Indeed, they pay almost 60 percent of all income taxes collected, while nearly 50 percent of households pay no income taxes. Obama seems angry that the top 5 percent will still have more money after taxes than do others, and so they should pay a redistributive government still more taxes.
But 21st-century class warfare is a weird thing.
Take the technology that gives most what only the few once could afford. Most Americans now expect as a birthright iPhones, iPods, laptops, DVDs, and big-screen televisions, thanks to cheap overseas fabrication and fierce price-cutting global competition. The typical welfare recipient now owns a sophisticated cellphone; a fat-cat corporate CEO not long ago did not.
For the president, riding on a private jet from New York to Los Angeles is supposed to be a privilege. But a poor person on a discount nonstop ticket can still get there as safely and almost as quickly for about one-thousandth of the cost in fuel and overhead. Once they land minutes apart at LAX, was the Gulfstream passenger all that blessed, the guy in steerage with headphones and a TV screen all that deprived?...

United we stand...Buridda Genoa
Where we work...
Sunflowerdesign store...where we work to make our dream true...
Thanks to all our wonderful Customers!!!
Featured Shop: Fennec Design
Our names are Joelle Workman and Justin Arawjo, and Fennec Design is our line of apparel and accessories. We specialize in hand-pulled, screenprinted goods featuring our unique style of original illustration and design, and we pride ourselves on using non-toxic, water-based inks, sweatshop-free apparel and recycled paper goods as the starting point for all of our pieces.
Fennec began in the fall of 2010. We were living in West Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, adrift in the milieu of twenty-something indecisiveness and in the midst of a particularly memorable stint as seasonal workers at a haunted house. Justin had been screenprinting part time for the better part of a decade post-college, and I couldn't sit near a piece of paper or stray napkin without doodling on it. We didn't anticipate that our first collaborative t-shirt – designed for a band we were playing in together – would elicit such a positive response. Four years, several moves, and more than a hundred craft fairs later, that single design has served as the catalyst for an ever-expanding collection.
On any given day you can find Justin in the studio, audiobooks in the background, pulling screen after screen (and drinking cup after cup of coffee). I'm usually bent over my desk, inking the finely-detailed pieces that will eventually be burned into a screen. Rather than strict divisions of labor, we both enjoy the complicated and rewarding challenge of a truly collaborative process; most of our pieces are drawn together, with each artist contributing elements to the overall design.
SUNFLOWER4KIDS...Sustainably design clothing for kids
It is too funny to work with our kids to make new items for our ETSY 'SHOP...
The feedback you've been waiting for
"You did a great job. This is exactly what I was hoping for. I wouldn't change a thing. You completely nailed it, it's fabulous."
Of course, that's not feedback, really. It's applause.
Applause is great. We all need more of it.
But if you want to improve, you should actively seek feedback. And that feedback, if it's more than just carping, will be constructive. It will clearly and generously lay out ways you can more effectively delight your customers and create a remarkable experience that leads to ever more customers.
If you're afraid of that feedback, it's probably not going to arrive as often as you'd like it to. On the other hand, if you embrace it as the gift it can be, you may decide to go looking for it.
Empty criticism and snark does no one any good. But genuine, useful, insightful feedback is a priceless gift.
Applause is good too.
Feedback is Apersonal opinion, no 1 has the same...
