Civility in question: Rep. Horrigan shamed again
Back in 2010, Democratic state House candidate Keith David Halloran of Rindge wrote on his Facebook page that he wished Sarah Palin and her daughter's former boyfriend had been killed in the fatal plane crash that took the life of former Alaska Sen. Ted Stevens. Democratic state Rep. Timothy Horrigan commented in response, "Well a dead Palin wd (sic) be even more dangerous than a live one...she is all about her myth & if she was dead she cldn't (sic) commit any more gaffes."
Republicans noticed, and for this bit of insensitivity Horrigan resigned his seat in the House the next day.
One would think that he'd have learned his lesson. Not quite. On Wednesday night Horrigan, who was reelected, forwarded from his Twitter account a joke in which the writer expressed hope that former Vice President Dick Cheney would shoot conservative Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia. That raises so many questions.
For one, why does Horrigan find humor in the gruesome early deaths of conservatives? More broadly, when did we as a culture become so debased that this kind of malicious humor became something an elected public official would find an acceptable part of public life? Then there is the obvious point that Democrats insisted after the 2011 Tucson shootings that violent imagery be purged from political discourse. Except, of course, when they use it.
Horrigan quickly deleted the joke after we pointed it out. That says enough about its appropriateness. It is remarkable that some public officials have to be shamed into refraining from publicly musing about their opponents being killed.

More reviews by Cherry_blossom
This is definitely my HG foundation for a night out, dinner dates, and other occassions! After a night out of dancing (and sweating), my face looks the same as it did when I left the house! Other than the excellent staying power, it is also good for its oil control. I never have to blot my face or even think of checking up on my foundation :)
The price is quite steep, but it's totally worth it. It can be a little difficult to remove at the end of the night, but make sure you do wash the foundation off thoroughly, or else you WILL wake up with a few new pimples! I wouldn't recommend this as an everyday foundation, as it can be a little heavy. I use mineral foundation for the daytime!
First of all, I have combination skin, acne scars, and acne. My face is pale and my acne is red, so I need good coverage. I have been using Make Up For Ever Duo Mat, which I LOVE, but I wanted to try a liquid foundation just to change things up. I bought Chanel Mat Lumiere, hated it, and returned it the next day and bought this instead. The SA matched my skin perfectly after I emphasized that I hate being matched with a dark foundation and going home to find my face looking blotchy and dirty.This foundation gives me the great coverage I was looking for and it's runny, so it spreads really well. It feels light. I applied it with the MAC 190 brush after moisturizing and it looks great. I would use a light powder just to set it if you want a matte finish. The only draw back is that I wish it had a pump. Don't buy this if you want a sheer coverage.
This formula in "Sand" would've been perfect - great coverage and staying power. I thought I'd found my HG foundation until I saw what I looked like in photos!!! I had to switch to another foundation immediately. For reference, I'm an NC or C30, 120 in MUFE HD, asian with light skin and yellow undertones.

I love this foundation. It gives excellent coverage but does not feel like I'm wearing a "mask" on my face. This foundation goes on easily and once on it stays put. I have gone tubing before with this foundation on and it did not budge. I have sensitive acne-prone skin and it has not caused me any problems. A little pricey but well worth it.
This is a great product if you need good coverage. The MA suggested I use a foundation brush but I find that a sponge works just as well. I am a redhead with pale skin and I have trouble finding shades that do not look too pink or too orange. Ecru matches my skin perfectly. I used this foundation when I was going through a period of some nasty breakouts for a few years. My job can be very physical and this makeup definitely stays put throughout swear and tears. One of the downfalls that I have noticed with this foundation is that my face appears ghost-white in pictures. Also, you need to be sure to apply plenty of moisturizer and let it set in for a good five minutes before applying Double Wear. I can see why this is too much makeup for some. If you don't need much coverage but want something with just as much staying power I would recommend Double Wear Light. I still have a bottle of the regular Double Wear but I find that it is useful as a concealer when I have a blemish.

This is the best foundation I have found...and believe me...I have tried several. I have oily skin so generally with other foundations by the end of the work day there is no foundation left on my face. This foundation holds up well, I do have to reapply powder throughout the day to my Tzone due to oiliness, but that is nothing new for me. I gave the packaging a 4 because it does not come with a pump, but you can purchase individual pumps from MAC for a few dollars, and they fit this bottle. A little goes a long way, one pump is more than enough to do my entire face. When I originally bought this foundation the MUA swatched a couple different colors on my skin and selected one that was a little darker than what I would have chosen, but It looked ok on at the time so I took her word and purchased it. I wore it for about a week but just wasnt happy with it, I found it a tad too dark, it left me looking orange. I put it in my vanity drawer, and went back to Revlon colorstay. Once I finished my bottle of Revlon, I got the Estee Lauder back out and called the counter I purchased it at to see if I could exchange it for another shade, they were extremely helpful and told me to come back to the counter and they would help me. They took the old bottle back and let me choose a new shade, I ended up with cool shell, the lightest shade they carry. They even gave me a gift with purchase (even though I was just exchanging my foundation) for my trouble. I have been wearing this shade for over 6 months and still have half a bottle left. I love it! I would recommend it to anyone. The only complaints I have are the price, and the bottle doesnt come with a pump, but both are things I can live with for such a great foundation!

I thought i was going to love this product after all the positive reviews... but it just isn't for me. Double Wear promises you a flawless face all day long that will not smudge or crease. And, while i didn't like the product much i had both pros and cons.
The color matched great. Usually SA's at the makeup counter are horrible with matching your skin tone... and the lady was certain i was darker than i am, but i am so pale. So, i asked her to give me the lightest shades in N, W and C. Cool Shell definitely looked the best. Finally no orange face. I asked her for a sample, and used it as my foundation the next day...
Color look great
At first application it does look flawless
Texture is nice and liquidy (which is what i prefer) so it goes on smooth
However, a few hours later...
My face was a slick, shiny and oily mess. OMG. I had to run to the bathroom to use an oil blot paper. Then, not even 2 hours later, again... super oily. And, i have combo skin. I don't know if it is some kind of reaction, but wow...
It was streaky. Smeared when i barely rubbed my face.
Started to look like i never put foundation on...
I don't want to seem like i HATED this foundation, because i didn't. I really liked it. But, i think i'd only wear it if i was doing something for 2 hours, then could take the makeup off ASAP, or no one would see me.
This is the closest to HG that I've come so far. My pale yellow-toned skin is difficult to match, and the shade called "Bone" matches it perfectly. My oily T-zone eats foundation for lunch; while most foundations are either a greasy mess or completely gone after three hours, this one stays on. I took off one lippie because it can get cakey - it's very thick, so I use just a little bit, but it still cakes and sticks to dry patches if I'm not careful (I tried DW Light, but the lightest shade is too dark for me). However, for a stay-put foundation that matches my weird skin tone, Double Wear is certainly worth it. The only way I'll switch from this is if Revlon introduces a Colorstay shade that's pale and yellow enough (Buff is just too ashy and dark). Til then, it's DW for me.
I love love love this foundation!! I've been using it for 3 yrs now. I use Tawny and need full coverage so this was just perfect. I have oily skin but never broke out from it. I simply cannot live without it! =]
Good stuff! I came back to this recently after trying it a couple years ago and straying to Merle Norman (which I love and still use!!) EL Doublewear has a better range of fair colors for my wintertime skin than MN. I find the shades Bone, Shell, and Linen all work well on my NC15-20 skin. Best recommendation for this: don't use too much. Seriously, very little is needed to cover EVERYTHING. And use on top of a good moisturizer. Remove with a good makeup remover, not just soap! I just Clinique Take The Day Off Balm. It's nice and thick and dissolves the makeup well. This is a very nice foundation :) I have repurchased and will again.

Georgia Tech looked like they could be in trouble early, but they weathered a literal storm and scored 21 straight points to power their way to a 28-20 win over North Carolina.
The Tar Heels looked like they had the upper hand in the first quarter, getting out to a 13-0 lead. Georgia Tech pulled a score back to make it 13-7, but it nearly didn't happen as David Sims was ruled to have crossed the goal line before fumbling. That may have saved the game for the Yellow Jackets.
North Carolina entered halftime with a 20-7 lead, but the second half belonged to Georgia Tech. The Yellow Jackets scored three straight touchdowns in the first 17 minutes of the second half, and were able to keep the Tar Heels at bay in the fourth quarter.
Vad Lee went 7-12 for 104 yards and a touchdown, and rushed for 55 yards and a touchdown. David Sims and Robert Godhigh both rushed for 100 yards, and Sims had two scores to his credit as well. Bryn Renner went 14-29 for 218 yards, two touchdowns and a pick for the Heels, and tight end Eric Ebron caught six passes for 108 yards and a highlight reel touchdown.
Box Score Hero:
It was a balanced effort for the Yellow Jackets, but Vad Lee was the straw the stirred the drink.
Rankings Ramifications:
Neither team was ranked coming into the game, but at 3-0, Georgia Tech could sneak into the rankings.
But Did They Cover?
Georgia Tech was a seven point favorite at kickoff, so they just covered.

S.F. Chronicle Blog Aghast New Survey Shows Their City Is Only Nation's 11th Gayest
Yeah. You can't make this stuff up.
From a January 24 entry in the San Francisco Chronicle's City Insider blog:
Avid followers of City Insider know we love to see how San Francisco stacks up against other cities in meaningless compilations of random statistics. But sometimes we have to call out these list compilers for being just, well, wrong.
Take The Advocate magazine and its new list, "Gayest Cities in America." Where would you expect to find San Francisco? We suspect it's not at No. 11 sandwiched between St. Louis and Cleveland.
But that's indeed where San Francisco - described as "the gay daddy of American cities" and "gentrifying, but still scrappy" - winds up. The gayest city of all? Minneapolis. Yes, Minneapolis. Followed by Santa Fe, Las Vegas, Orlando and Pittsburgh.
Supervisor Scott Wiener, who represents the Castro, isn't buying the list either. "It's good to have competition. It's good to have options," he said. "But this is pretty much the mothership."
We're no mathematicians (in fact, we barely passed college statistics), but The Advocate's formula seems a bit suspect. It adds up the city's number of gay.com profiles, gay wedding officiants, openly gay elected officials, Tegan and Sara performances over the past five years, lesbian bars and Yellow Pages entries with the word gay in them. It then divides the total by the city's population and then multiplies that by 100,000. Got it?
San Francisco winds up with a measley 18.6. First quibble: San Francisco has far more than two gay wedding officiants as The Advocate says. How would two people have married 4,000 same-sex couples within weeks back in 2004? Hmmm? And more to the point, the formula penalizes big cities. After all, New York City and Los Angeles don't even make the list.
There, we feel better now.

I'm no mathematician either but I don't think it penalizes big cities. The formula shows the ratio of Gayness to the entile popluation of those cities. So even though the San Francisco Gay community does quite well at tooting its own horn (snicker) they still are a minority of San Franciscans.

Who do you believe has more value coming into 07, Jhonny Peralta or Andy Marte? Peralta has hit better and plays a more difficult position, but according to the front office, plays it poorly. Marte had a tough year with the bat last year (and still has yet to top .285 any year or any level, something Peralta already did in the majors), but his defense is supposedly good at 3B.
I'm interested in peoples opinions, and the reasons given. For example "If peralta played 3B he'd be better defensively than Marte" (I have no idea if this statement is true or not).

News: Nas Says Damian Marley Collaboration Album Is 90% Done, "It Was Me & Damian Finding Our Way"
Wednesday, Jul 8, 2009 1:40PM
Nas recently spoke on the progress of his upcoming collaboration album Distant Relatives with Damian Marley and the feedback he's received from fans on the Rock The Bells 2009 tour.
While a confirmed release date has not yet been announced, the duo expect to begin working on the project again upon the tour's end in late August.
Nas estimates it's about 90 percent done, Marley guesses a more conservative 75 percent, with songwriting contributions by Marley's brother Stephen and a guest feature by rapper K'Naan. "I just think it was me and Damian finding our way," Nas said about the project. "When you have two different artists working on a record when they're used to doing their own thing their own way, it's not as easy as people may think. We just flowed, and the next thing we looked up and there were so many songs done or so many songs started and worked on...we just decided to keep it going. It's not reggae. It's not rap. It's different sh*t for each of us...I know people are kind of like, 'What's happening? What's Nas doing? What's Damian doing? Is this really happening?' ... So just being out here on the road we get a good feel from people about this whole thing." (Billboard)
Nas recently said the album was originally going to be released as an EP.
"I liked his music and what he does," Nas explained in an interview last month. "The feeling was mutual. So we started working on it and thought it might as well be an album. Hopefully [it'll be released in] the fall. We have a few more things to tweak. Reggae is one of the roots of hip-hop. Hip-hop music has helped reggae in its transition periods. Together we kind of wanted to give people that. To find the roots of reggae and hip-hop. Of course, Africa is the main theme that made us put this album together. (World Herald)
He leaked the project's first single "As We Enter" in late June.
"HERE IS AN EXCLUSIVE," Nas wrote. "SNEAK PEEK AT THE FIRST SINGLE FROM THE NEXT ALBUM I'VE BEEN WORKING ON WITH MY MAN DAMIAN MARLEY!! LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK??" (Global Grind)
Nas first announced his collaboration project with Marley last February.
"Right now, I'll tell you first, I'm working on an album with Damian Marley, and we tryin' to build some schools in Africa with this one, and trying to build empowerment," Nas said. "We're tryin' to show love and stuff with this album. So, the record's ... all about really the 'hood and Africa also as well. That's coming out real soon...Too early to tell the title or anything like that," he said. "Shout out to my man Jr. Gong, we getting it in right now." (MTV News)

Let jury decide
I wish Sound Off commenters would stop watching CNN or MSNBC and let the George Zimmerman jury do its job. You are not in the courtroom. You have no idea what is being said. You are only getting the sound bites the so-called journalists at CNN and MSNBC want you to hear.
I'm watching
The evidence so far in the George Zimmerman trial clearly points to self-defense. His injuries were obviously inflicted before Trayvon Martin was shot, not after. What concerns me is that several liberal pundits on TV are advocating that Zimmerman be convicted, in spite of his innocence, because there might be riots if he is acquitted, that he needs to be sacrificed to the god of political correctness. Is this what passes for justice these days?
In defense
The Sound Off writer who thinks that somehow George Zimmerman was at fault, couldn't be more off base. First of all, Mr. Zimmerman was part of a neighborhood watch group. That is why he was out and following Trayvon Martin. Regardless of what words were exchanged, the second that Mr. Martin attacked him, Zimmerman had every right to use whatever force necessary to protect his life. The evidence in this case is clear. Mr. Zimmerman was getting his head pounded against the pavement by Martin. The only reason that it was even brought to trial was to pacify the protests of the Martin family and minority leaders.
Muffle it
In response to "Noise is Everywhere," fire, police and ambulance sirens are intermittent, necessary and legal. Loud motorcycle noise is constant, unnecessary and illegal.
Bridge vs. sidewalks
The Golden Gate Bridge took four years to build. It looks like it will take longer than that to finish the sidewalks in Bradford.
Next year will be our chance to do the right thing and vote to eliminate the Democratic majority in the Senate and keep the Republican majority in the Congress. The Democrats have given the people a most horrendous and outrageously expensive health care plan called Obamacare. Costs for everyone having their own health insurance now will skyrocket and will be unaffordable. I know because I read the bill, unlike the Democrats. Say what you will about the Republicans, but they will work with the American people and will repeal Obamacare in its entirety. All current polls indicate that now almost 70 percent want it repealed. The Democrats must be stopped from continuing to impose bills that the majority don't want and will continue to overburden the middle class.

Oden better than Shaq, Yao, and Howard?
Found this from the oregonlive.com's pregame link post, it is a good piece talking about how the writer feels Greg has not only not been a bust this year, but a very good player, when he plays. Basically he uses per 48 min stats to see how Greg stacks up against the better centers in the league. One interesting note from the comments as this: "I think it's informative and encouraging to compare Dwight Howard's rookie season stats extrapolated to 48 minutes to Oden's: Howard (04-05) 17.6 points, 14.8 rebounds, 2.44 block Oden (08-09) 19.1 points, 15.4 rebounds, 2.56 blocks Looks pretty good good to me! Posted by: Dave | April 02, 2009 at 09:29 AM" Greg needs to foul less, but the stats don't lie about his effectiveness when he is on the court.

The Waynesboro
Police Department sign still bears the name of former Police Chief, Alfonzo
The name of the next Police Chief will soon be displayed on the sign; but
finding that person is causing plenty of controversy.
A disagreement
between Waynesboro Council members over outsourcing the search for the Police Chief
led to a heated discussion Monday night.
member Brenda Lewis said not hiring from within would be insulting, "That's a
slap in the face to the department itself to me."
member Herman Brown made a motion to allow the Georgia Association of Chiefs of
Police handle the recruiting process, half of the council members voted in
favor and the other members were strongly opposed.
members who voted against the motion want to see Deputy Chief Roosevelt Lodge
get the job.
has been with the department for two years and he says someone should only be hired
over him if they are better qualified for the job.
would have to be] better than mine and I think I'm pretty well damn qualified.
But that's the council's game so lets play," Roosevelt, said.
also says other applicants should have more than the right qualifications.
better know the citizens of this town, because it takes a lot to know these
citizens. It takes a lot to have them trust you," he said.
Broseghini says he doesn't care who gets the job, as long as they don't stop
the Citizens on Patrol program.
they can continue the program the people in Waynesboro appreciate and like; I
say it's another pair of eyes for the police department,"
Broseghini, said.
Pitcher says if the next Chief of Police is the finest candidate for the job,
she doesn't care what their name is.
have to pick the best person for the job and unless we see all of them, we
don't know who that is," she said.
She will have the opportunity to see the top candidates for the job in a few weeks because the
motion to have the GACP handle the application process passed.
City council members will decide who the next Chief of Police will be when they meet with the applicants at the end of March.

News: Rihanna Receives Backlash For Following Chris Brown, "It's F*cking Twitter, Not The Alter!"
Monday, May 16, 2011 5:10PM
Grammy-winning singer Rihanna raised a few eyebrows over the weekend after following ex-boyfriend Chris Brown on Twitter and lashed back at criticism from her fans.
Responding to a fan asking if her following Brown was a sign the two would romantically reunite, RiRi turned down the speculation.
"@iStan4Rihanna_ its f*ckin twitter, not the alter! calm down," she tweeted May 14th.
"@iStan4Rihanna_ babygirl I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt or offend u! Just needed to make it clear to the Navy! I still Stan for u xoxo" (Rihanna's Twitter)
Rihanna and Brown began following one another over the weekend.
Exes Chris Brown and Rihanna are following each other on Twitter -- and the fans aren't very happy about it. On Saturday, people began to notice that Brown -- who beat his then-girlfriend Rihanna on the night of the Grammy Awards in 2009 -- started following Rihanna on the social media website. In turn, she followed him as well. (Billboard)
Earlier this year, RiRi talked about her lack of motivation to hook back up with her ex.
"We don't have to talk ever again in my life," Rihanna explains. "I just didn't want to make it more difficult for him professionally. What he did was a personal thing -- it had nothing to do with his career. Saying he has to be 100 feet away from me, he can't perform at awards shows -- that definitely made it difficult for him ... But you can never please people. One minute, I'm being too hard, and the next minute, I'm a fool because I'm not being hard enough." (Rolling Stone)
A few months ago, Brown made headlines for causing mayhem following a "Good Morning America" interview where he was asked questions about Rihanna.
Chris Brown exploded in rage behind the scenes at "Good Morning America" this morning ... smashing a window and storming out without a shirt ... sources tell TMZ ... and it was triggered by on-air questions about the Rihanna incident. ABC sources tell TMZ ... Brown performed and was interviewed by Robin Roberts live from the Times Square studio when she began asking about the infamous incident. Brown tried to redirect the questions to focus on his album -- but Roberts continued to ask about Brown's legalissues stemming from the Rihanna incident. (TMZ)
Last February, Chris Brown had his restraining order downgraded but is forbidden from annoying, harassing and stalking ex-girlfriend Rihanna.

Paul McCartney is gearing up for the release of his next album "New" which will become his first effort of completely fresh solo material in six years since 2007's "Memory Almost Full". He kicks off promotion for the CD by releasing its lead single of the same name.
The single is produced by DJ Mark Ronson who has worked with the likes of Amy Winehouse, Lady GaGa and Lily Allen. "It's catchy, it's summery, it's a love song. I think people will recognize it as definitely me," the ex-member of The Beatles tells BBC.
"Mark's work with Amy was sensational, so I knew he'd be good. He knows his music, he knows what he likes and the two of us together took the song and tried to put the maximum vibe into it," he says. "We had a lot of fun. He brought expertise, energy, enthusiasm and the odd laugh or two."
Featuring 12 songs, the album co-produced by Paul Epworth is planned for release in the United States on October 15. "The record is very varied. I worked with four producers and each of them brought something different," the former member of the Fab Four dishes on.
McCartney's last album "Kisses on the Bottom" was released last year. Consisting primarily of covers of traditional pop music and jazz, it reached No. 1 on Billboard Jazz Albums chart and won Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album at the 2013 Grammy Awards.

I first met CZ almost nine years ago in an internet forum for survivors of abuse and encounters of the narcissistic and psychopathic kind. She was witty, wise, articulate and oh so real. Her generosity of spirit helped hundreds and hundreds of men and women heal from the wounds of battle in relationships of the not so very nice kind.
When MSN changed its forum template and CZ set off to explore the world of building her own sites. She knew how vital and important these sharing and caring spaces were for people coming out from under the web of deceit psychopaths and narcissists wove into their lives. She knew she needed to keep making a difference if people were to find healing and peace in the past.
Her efforts gave birth to her website: The Narcissistic Continuum and several blogs including the Web of Narcissism (WON) Forum. Her efforts and generosity of spirit have also given birth to a friendship that I value and treasure, even though we've never met, in person. After 9 years of online sharing and emails, I know CZ is an amazing Woman of Worth. A real WOW!
Thank you CZ for sharing your brilliance here and thank you for all you to do make a difference in the world everyday. Your difference shines!
Making a Difference: Cyber-communities
by CZ
Feigning remorse he said, "Sorry to steal your best years by leaving when you're old." Feigning dignity I replied, "Don't even kid yourself. You didn't get my best years. You got my worst."
It was a turning point for me, this brief exchange between two people who had married at nineteen…divorcing at fifty. I had been skydiving black holes for months, free falling into hopelessness. That is how it felt being disconnected from the comfort of a thirty-four year marriage, the reassurance of family ties, the grace of worth transferred, even in the pretense of love.
In case I didn't hear him the first time, he repeated, "Stealing…best years…you're old," and I don't know what happened to me! I don't. Something deep inside myself refused to believe his words. Something inside myself said, "You are a daughter of God!" I know this sounds dramatic, even romantic; yet to me, it was divine intervention. A grounding realization that no one is replaceable, not even a housewife. No one is worthless, not even an unemployed, replaced housewife. My life had value and meaning, perhaps even more so with age. This sure knowledge affirmed that each of us has a purpose to serve in the web of life. And our service to others needn't be spectacular or newsworthy. In fact, anonymity might serve me well.
My soon-to-be-x-husband left for his self-determined future, fame and fortune sure to be his claim. Instead of focusing on him, I focused on me, connecting the repetitive themes of my life from one maturing decade to another. I hadn't placed much value on my traditional skills, my community-building-and-serving-others skills. I didn't even think of my self as having skills. Building intimate relationships is what I learned as a girl. Ho-hum, who cares, don't all women do that? I had matured into a woman with an open door for teen-agers in need of a surrogate mom (just as goodly women provided for my rebel teens); a woman with casseroles and jell-o, cushy armchairs and china teacups, less worried about my hair than community welfare.
An older woman with an eye out for people in trouble, people in need. A woman who listened. A woman who cared. I had done my preparatory work creating a meaningful, connected life. It was time to put my skills to greater use organizing a healing community. I needed a website, a living room, and a keyboard.
Each morning (I won't add "at the crack of dawn" because sometimes I get up at the "crack of noon"), I log in to the Web of Narcissism and connect with people who are suffering, people who have lost everything including self-respect. They feel broken and powerless, humiliated and vulnerable. But I know they are stronger than they feel, more valuable than they realize, more worthy than they believe.
I trust in the power of human connections to heal our wounds simply by listening and talking with one another. Chit-chatting. Tete-a-tete-ing. Being honest about our lives. Keeping it real. So, I serve cyber-tea in china cups in lovely chintz-covered cyber-living rooms and wait for the healing to begin—a most natural process, indeed.
Shhhhhhh…listen. Do you hear the chattering of an Internet message board? If you do, look carefully. You are witnessing the mystery of lives unfolding. Their best is yet to be.

Advancing Your Career with Open Source
ROSE Blog: Rikki's Open Source Exchange
The Linux Foundation's Amanda McPherson wrote an interesting blog post about careers in open source. Amanda points to the article in CIO, written by Esther Shindler, called "Open Source as an Easy Answer for Better Developer Visibility (and Career Opportunity)."
In the past year, I've done quite a bit of research about women in IT, specifically open source, and one explanation for the lower participation by women is that they tend to leave the industry as a way to advance their careers. Amanda and Esther both point out that the current demand for open source developers makes this a great time for women to be in IT. Esther says that open source "is as even a playing ground as one could ask for, since every project's membership is self-selected." Esther also points out some of the pitfalls of the open source community, including that it can be rather cliquey, and she suggests ways to get involved, such as Sourceforge.net and ohloh.net.
Esther says that if you think your career is stalled, you should consider open source because "It'll be good for the computing community, good for your sense of personal satisfaction, and good for your career."comments powered by Disqus

Since when was Talib slated as a 2nd round pick? By most estimations he was picked within range of his projection.
Quote from: StretchCaddy on April 26, 2008, 05:40:57 PM he will be a beast in this cover 2.......IMOwhy do you say this?
he will be a beast in this cover 2.......IMO
How he is better than Mike Jenkins, Brandon Flowers, or Antoine Cason is wayyyyyy beyond me. The Bucs had atleast 6-8 guys that would be better at 20, yet decide not to move down. Even if all you get out of it is a 3rd or so.. MOVE DOWN! If Talib is here to replace BK and be put on an island this guy is going to be TOAST.
Quote from: MarleyMon81 on April 26, 2008, 06:05:40 PMSince when was Talib slated as a 2nd round pick? By most estimations he was picked within range of his projection.Lots of folks had him sliding after the pot news broke
CZAR'S FRONT OFFICE TAKE: The Bucs were never going to take a receiver with the first pick. They chose Kansas cornerback Aqib Talib, who does have some off-the-field issues, but also has tremendous skills. Talib is an interesting pick because many teams didn't see him as a Cover Two cornerback like Ronde Barber, but more as a man-to-man cover cornerback. A lot of teams rated Talib as a top-10 talent, but were worried about his personality and character. But Talib isn't a risk with the 20th pick because he's not going to get top-10 money. A solid player who can also help in the return game.SCHRAGER ON THE SCENE: An unnamed middle-aged member of the media sitting nearby waits until everyone's quit talking, takes a deep breath, and comments, "The Marijuana Man!" A pack of fellow middle-aged members of the media surrounding him laugh uproariously in unison. Hilarious! This is the comedy you're missing at Radio City, folks. Hey, failed drug tests or not, Talib was fantastic his entire career in Lawrence, capping it off with an All-American 2007 campaign in which the Jayhawks won the Orange Bowl. I'm a huge Talib guy. Ronde Barber can't play forever. This is a solid pick. I just did "The D'Brickashaw Ferguson" move.

The Fearless Vampire Killers National Tour
It's been one hell of a ride for Melbourne's blues-soaked garage rockers, The Fearless Vampire Killers. Forming as a bi-product of high school friendships, the band are making a name for themselves with an unhinged live show that draws comparisons to the likes of Dick Dale through to The Libertines.
With an explosive live set, its no surprise that The Fearless Vampire Killers have been hand picked to play with the likes of The Mars Volta, Kasabian and The Hives.
Their appreciation of their fan base, has seen them throw a number of pumping house party gigs for their single and video launches. Flowing with oceans of booze and hours of debauchery, these nights and the stories that result, are modern day Melbourne urban legends.
October 2011 marked the release of the band's long awaited debut LP, Batmania. An album drenched in swooning harmonies and surf rock riffs, has maintained enough pop sensibilities to ensure the first two singles, 'For You & Me' and 'Tell Me What You're Trying To Say' became favourites on playlists of alternative radio around the country.

bonds do NOT outperform stocks. Not over the long term, or over the last 1.2 and/or 5 year periods. Not even close.

Let me summarize this article:I have more pros listed in my last review of Series I Savings Bonds.
Pros: Series I Bonds offer inflation protection that's better than any other reliable investment. They offer significant tax advantages. And they act like a high-yield 11-month CD that becomes liquid on day 335. Then stays liquid, while continuing to earn CD-like rates, for 29 years.
Cons: The old paper bonds of yesteryear (which are no longer offered, by the way) sit in drawers and safe deposit boxes. if you're too lazy to spend 15 minutes converting them to your treasurydirect account. And I Bonds are not as ****y as stocks -: you don't feel the excitement you get when watching the value of your stocks gyrate wildly in your brokerage account.
I Bonds outperform stocks, but at a slow, steady, and less nerve-wracking pace.
I'm not sure why the author isn't singing the I Bond's praises instead of coming up with lame reasons to diss them.

7Miley "Accidentally" Tweeted A Series Of Personal Texts
Miley Cyrus doesn't know how to use twitter, it seems. At least that's what she'd like us to believe, as whenever she tweets something juicy it gets taken down and followed with a, "Aw shucks my twitter.com internet thingee got the hacking to it! My bad, y'all!" She tried using that excuse again when she "accidentally" tweeted a series of personal texts between her and someone named "FEFE" (could it be Fefe Dobson? lolz) in which Ms. Cyrus reveals her love of Xanax:
In Miley speak, "zanny" = "Xanax." Cute! Cyrus followed that tweet up with this tweet (via Zimbio),
Someone has hacked my twitter. I'm back in action now! Wtf! If that shit!
Miley. You keep using this word, "hack." It does not mean what you think it means. She tried again with another tweet:
Never mind. Realized I'm just an idiot & somehow I butt tweeted my conversation. Missing home #foodpoisoningsabitch.
Uh, okay. So…you (accidentally?) took a screenshot of your texts…and then somehow accidentally put that on twitter? All with the phone in your pants pocket? Come on. Come on, Miley. Miley, come on.

And she's crying herself to sleep why…?
She must be kind-of a pill-head if she's calling them "zanny's"
"Fefe" is probably short for fiance, which ugh, come on, Miley.
Sad, very sad. Top Disney mind controlled slave….
What is up with you and mind control ? First Miley then Marilyn ! I think you need a padded room !
This chick is a supreme douche bag. Such a little desperate attention whore. Anyone who spends their life on Twitter is an asshole. She has always been insufferable but more so recently with her "I hate daddy" tweets, calling out his infidelities, when her mother was running around with Brett Michaels a few years back. Liam Hemsworth must be the dumbest man alive to be willing to marry this unstable and desperate little trick. Good luck with that dude! He will be the one who needs a "Zanny" once he ties the know with that little freak!
Once upon a time ago…..a sweet up-and-comer name Miley came to Disney and became a hit, She was one of the lucky ones, she made to uber-stardom. This was when someone should have been keeping an eye on her, and not just teaching her self respect and values, but actually applying them to daily life. I am willing to assume her latest childish behavior is due to the fact that like many stars that start out like she did, she lives in a fantasy. Shes probably medicating because she never learned how to put her big girl panties on by herself yet. Changing her look on the outside only tells us how extremely f'd up she is on the inside. If someone close to her that really has her best interest at heart doesnt step in and give her a refresher course on the ups/downs of adulthood and how to deal, she is going to amount to nothing. I'm not talking money here, Im talking about her personal sustinence. I love Justin Timberlake, cuz even if he isn't perfect (what star his age doesn't like to spark a doobie?!)lmfao, he is multi-talented, multi-faceted, a philanthropist even if the cameras are not on, and best of all, doesn't hope his alleged "butt tweeting" will land him some attention. This girl will just keep trying to create some dumb image, that clearly isnt who she is, or she wouldnt be poppin zannies and cryin herself to sleep. Maybe she needs the zannies, along with some zoloft and some talk therapy. Oh, and scratch the haircut, survey says no one really likes it and ….Pink you will NEVER be! So show some respect and get with the real world you messed up xcuse for a superstar!

Forecast for Tunisia
As hopes fade for an Arab Spring, the country where it all started remains sunny—but for how long?
It's true. One of Ennahda's favorite tactics, both during the election campaign and continuing even now, is caricaturing the secular opposition as a bunch of decadent atheists. The party did run a moderate campaign last year, and it's good news that it has publicly abandoned Sharia—at least for now—but some of its members routinely make extreme statements, including Ghannouchi, who has in the past praised Palestinian suicide bombers and threatened the United States. "There must be no doubt that we will strike anywhere against whoever strikes Iraq," he said during the first Gulf War. "We must wage unceasing war against the Americans until they leave the land of Islam, or we will burn and destroy all their interests across the entire Islamic world."
His most disturbing statements were made some time ago, but he still rattles Tunisian liberals. "Ghannouchi said 'the Salafists are our sons,' " Sghayier, the young Amnesty International activist, said when I asked him his view on the man. "Excuse me, but the sons of who? The Tunisian people? Or the sons of Ennahda?"
On March 15 this year, Ennahda was given a righteous shellacking in nationwide university elections for posts in 40 academic establishments. The secular, left-of-center General Tunisian Student Union (UGET) won 250 out of 284 seats. Such an abysmally poor showing on Ennahda's part suggests that the Islamists have lost a massive amount of popularity since last year's election or that the rising generation rejects them out of hand—possibly both. Neither bodes well for the party's future.
"They have learned some tough lessons these last four months," says Ahmed Ounaies, the now-retired diplomat who briefly served as Tunisia's foreign minister in the tumultuous days after Ben Ali's departure last year. "They now admit that they'll accept the claims by the democratic opposition in the assembly. They're coming slowly, step by step, to the right way of ruling Tunisia."
The liberal coastal elite is proving a formidable foe. "These people are clear-headed and are better prepared for the future," Ounaies told me. "The newcomers are intruders in politics. They were either underground or in exile. The revolution was not theirs. Today's Muslims are connected with modern life and are learning about it through TV, movies, and the Internet. They are not the theoretical Tunisian boys and girls Ennahda imagined. The Islamists' thinking was superficial. They are being forced now into the concrete theater of responsibilities and are learning about the real Tunisian society. This rendezvous with history was inevitable."
But the culture, progressive by Arab standards as it may be, still has a reactionary streak running through it. Farhat, the theater director, is relieved that she no longer has to contend with a police state, but something else, something less oppressive but at the same time a bit scarier for being less predictable, seems to have moved in to replace it. "After the revolution," she said, "the censorship is different. This time the pressure is social instead of political. Two years ago the enemy was Ben Ali's dictatorship. Nowadays the dictatorship comes from the people."
Last summer, for example, a gang of Salafists set fire to a movie theater downtown for showing Persepolis, an animated Iranian film about a young woman during and after the 1979 revolution that briefly depicts Allah as a bearded old man. To Westerners the scene would appear no more anti-religious than the 1980s American Oh God! films starring cigar-sucking comedian George Burns as God, but even benign depictions of Allah rile the likes of the Salafists.
Nor is state censorship entirely a thing of the past. A few weeks ago the government fined TV executive Nebil Karoui $1,500 for showing the same film on television. He then hired a team of bodyguards to protect himself and his family from Salafist vigilantes and other potentially violent enforcers of "piety."
Right now, secularism and Islamism co-exist in Tunisia in the same uneasy balance maintained in Turkey. The future, however, may be kinder to secular parties than the recent past has been to Islamists, since faith won't create jobs, boost salaries, or bring back jittery tourists. Secular parties are discussing mergers to consolidate and boost the size of their base. And the old elite—the ones who built the modern republic after the French left—are reorganizing themselves to come back in force.
"No party has a majority," said Ounaies, the former foreign minister. "It will be the same during the next election, but we will have another political actor. There will be the comeback of the Destour."
The Destour was the party of Habib Bourguiba, the modern republic's secular founder. Parts of it later became Ben Ali's corrupt and despotic party, and its crooked and ruthless officials are finished forever. But the economic, political, and cultural Bourguibist elite haven't gone anywhere. And they're done sitting on the sidelines.
"The philosophy is still there," said Ounais. "The virtues of that philosophy are still there. The people are there. They have a network throughout the country. The corrupted and wrong people have been taken aside, as they should, but the rock is still there. And they're coming back."
For once—at least for now—opposing forces in an Arab country are more or less evenly matched, and politics aren't being decided by violence. Iraq could have done it after Saddam Hussein was overthrown, but it failed. Egypt could have done so after Mubarak was removed from the palace, but it failed. Libya isn't exactly on track. Much of the world hoped Lebanon might pull it off after the Cedar Revolution in 2005, but it was not in the cards, not with Hezbollah as the tip of the Syrian-Iranian spear. Only Tunisia has managed to replace bullets with ballots. The government was freely elected. No party has a militia. The mukhabarat, the secret police, have evaporated. The army is small, and it stays out of politics. Tunisians have little choice but to battle it out ideologically and at the ballot box.
The stakes couldn't be higher. If this period is but an interlude, if the country does end up falling to radical Islam, every Arab country will be at serious risk. For if political liberalism cannot take root even here, it won't be taking root anywhere in that part of the world anytime soon. But for now they have something that looks like democracy. We'll see if they keep it.

Ryan Lochte and More Single Celebs We'd Cast as the Bachelor by Tara Block 8/10/12 8 Reactions 10 Shares Print 0 4 6 0 0 Our favorite dreamy Olympian Ryan Lochte told the Today show this morning that he'd like to star in The Bachelor or another reality TV show once he moves to LA after the London Olympics. He said, "I'm definitely looking towards Dancing With the Stars and The Bachelor, so we'll see what happens." Chris Harrison, you better be on the first flight to London — we want to see some more primetime Lochte! Ryan isn't the first famous athlete to be speculated for the reality TV dating show. Earlier this year, ultraconservative football player Tim Tebow denied the rumors that he would be the next Bachelor. And while we'd be interested to see how the virginal quarterback would fare on the show (especially when it came to the fantasy suite episode), we could think of some other hot single celebs who'd be fun to watch dishing out roses on The Bachelor. After all, with its less-than-stellar track record, maybe it's time the show mixes things up with a celebrity bachelor? See who we'd cast now! Source: Getty Michael Fassbender What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Age: 35 Hometown: Heidelberg, Baden-Württemberg, Germany Occupation: Actor We've already seen Irish-German sexpot Michael Fassbender's goods onscreen in Shame, and we wouldn't mind seeing him pull a skinny-dipping session á la Ben on The Bachelor . . . especially if we were in Courtney's, er, skin. Where can we sign up? Source: Getty 1 / 18 Joseph Gordon-Levitt What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Age: 31 Hometown: Los Angeles, CA Occupation: Actor I mean, who doesn't love Joseph Gordon-Levitt?

Source: Getty 2 / 18 Jake Gyllenhaal What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Age: 31 Hometown: Los Angeles, CA Occupation: Actor With that dimpled smile and big doe eyes, we've had a crush on Jake Gyllenhaal since he first graced the big screen in the '90s. And despite dating some of the hottest starlets in Hollywood, he's yet to find the one. We think it's time he tried reality TV dating!

But Zac is all grown up now and ready for some lovin' — as evidenced by his condom dropping red carpet incident! We have a feeling he wouldn't turn down a chance to date a house full of women.

Benedict has a highly academic background and even spent his "gap year" teaching English in a Tibetan monastery. The newly single actor would be a prime candidate for a dating show, since his 12-year relationship with his college love just ended last year.

He's an intellectual, he's into art, he's not afraid to talk about sex, and he's a bit of a weirdo. But he's also likeable and cute, so we'd accept his rose!

"I believe that our current level of debt is dangerous for our economy and a crippling legacy for our children and grandchildren. So I could not vote to suspend the debt limit without securing any reforms to our runaway spending. I was also disappointed that this agreement didn't do more to protect American families from the high costs of Obamacare.
"I've made a promise to my constituents in West Texas and the Big Country: I will continue to work on their behalf to get our debt under control and to prevent Obamacare from impairing their health care.
"Addressing our growing debt will require honest negotiations between the House and Senate - with everyone at the table. It's time to make the difficult decisions about our spending problem, instead of kicking the can down the road."

Stage 9. Sunday 9th July. Arc-et-Senans → Besançon, 41.5km ITT.
Your entry must be posted before the first of your three picks starts
Official site stage information
Stage 8 Results
Pinot took a fine win, encouraged by Madiot's initial offers to increase his bonus (or perhaps it was the eventual screaming threats to kill him and the entire Pinot family if he failed). Excellent call by ceccovb, who soloed to our stage win with 20 points.
In the GC, andrewp retook the casquette jaune with points from Gallopin. Other GC moves came from Gravy24, up to 3rd place with 2 solid picks on a difficult day to call; and stage winner ceccovb of course, rocketing from 38th up to 5th.
Our mountains competition begins soon with Stage 10 - see the polka dots below for details.

Entry Deadline
The strict entry deadline is the official start time of the stage - timestamp one minute late, your entry doesn't count for that stage.
Subject to the deadline, you may change any or all of your picks, but only one time, in a single reply to your original post.
Entry Format
On the first three lines of the body of the post write your three riders' surnames only.
Write the surname in full, and nothing else. No nicknames, no abbreviations.
Add first name after the surname only when there's ambiguity (e.g. "Velits, Peter").
