Karima Bennoune: Killing the Arab Spring in Its Cradle
Karima Bennoune, a professor of law at the University of California, Davis, is the author of the forthcoming book "Your Fatwa Does Not Apply Here: Untold Stories From the Fight Against Muslim Fundamentalism."...Since it attained independence from France in 1956, Tunisia has had some of the region's most progressive laws relating to women and families. Many fear that Ennahda is trying to undo those laws. Amel Grami, an intellectual historian at Manouba University, whose campus was besieged last year by Salafi activists opposed to women's equality and secular education, says the Arab Spring has "triggered a male identity crisis" that has magnified the extreme positions taken by Islamist parties.

Teen actor Yoo Seung Ho might be in the army, but he"s still one of the in-demand actors of his generation.
With only a few months left before his discharge from the military, both fans and industry producers are looking forward to the actor"s return to the limelight.
According to an unnamed drama producer, "One of the most desired actors for next year"s dramas is Yoo Seung Ho.

MBLAQ members to enlist in the army after one more concert?
Sad news for fans of MBLAQ! It appears that members of the group will be enlisting in the army following their concert "Curtain Call" in November, according to concert show director, Randy Noh.
He posted a picture of the concert poster onto his Instagram and wrote, "It seems like just yesterday when I saw [the boys] trembling since they had their first debut stage five years ago, but now MBLAQ [will be going to] the army, too. But will they be able to properly prepare for the concert? I"ll be unable to prepare anything for the concert because I was telling entertainment cosplayer Bang Mo Geun about this summer"s episode keke. I hope a lot of people come and support our MBLAQ, whom we won"t be able to see a lot of for the time being. P.S: the title and head copy are my productions ke #MBLAQ #MBLAQ #MBLAQconcert #20141129-1130 #OlympicHall #MBLAQslastconcertforthetimebeing." ...

"For next year's drama line up which has projects coming out one after the other, the most desired actor is Yoo Seung Ho. He'll be reformed as the best representative male actor in their 20s. Because he used to do child roles, there was a limit in the roles he could play but now that he is almost done with his military service, he gives off this youthful boyish image," said a drama production company president who refused to be named. ...

Boy group 2PM shared their thoughts about going to the army together, despite their differences in age. Aside from Thai member Nichkhun, all five members have expressed their intent on entering the army.
In an interview with Joy News, member Jun.K thought it would be a good thing if they all entered together and said, "If we entered the army in a zigzag way (through age), it would take us six years to be complete as a group again. Truthfully, we don't have a lot of members in our group. Whenever we do events and one or two members weren't able to attend, it makes a really big difference too. We can probably do unit promotions too, but it's still not 2PM." ...

Maryland Weekly Fishing Report Overview | May 15, 2013
The weather has been oscillating back and forth recently and some inland areas even reported frost earlier this week. There was a Striped Bass spawn on the Choptank last Friday when the sun shown brightly and temperatures soared; so hopefully this event also took place on other spawning rivers and there will be a new infusion of post-spawn Striped Bass into the bay fishery this week. The forecast for the rest of this week and next week has air temperatures in the 70's and 80's so water temperatures in the freshwater, bay and ocean areas should begin to rise substantially.
Fishermen looking for some catch and release Hickory Shad action were treated to yet another good run of fish last week when warm temperatures on Friday and Saturday pushed fish that were holding in the river to make a run up Deer Creek. Fisheries biologists working in the area collecting brood stock don't put much hope in the fishery lasting much longer since we are into the middle of May.
Photo By Jim Thompson
Recently the focus of fishermen in the lower Susquehanna has been the excellent White Perch fishing that fishermen are enjoying by casting shad darts, small jigs and spoons from shore and boats. A few American Shad and Hickory Shad are still being caught as well as a few striped bass in the river. Fishing for Channel Catfish in the Susquehanna and Elk Rivers has also been excellent. Out on the flats area fishermen are finding White Perch in some of the channels such as near Turkey Point and Spesutie Island; the perch are spreading out and are beginning to take up residence in their normal summer haunts.
Striped Bass fishermen will see some of the lower areas in select tidal rivers open up to fishing tomorrow, May 16th and will be allowed to keep one fish above 28" and add one fish below 28" to their daily creel limit. This will certainly be a welcomed addition for fishermen and smaller lures will now be part of the trolling spread of most boats. Water temperatures in the bay have actually dropped slightly due to some recent chilly nighttime temperatures and are still holding around 60-degrees but warmer weather is arriving and the upward climb of water temperatures will once again continue. Most of the traditional steep channel edges above the Bay Bridge continue to produce fish this week for boats trolling and others who are chumming or chunking at Love Point and Podickory Point as well as the Bay Bridge piers. Jigging will become more popular after tomorrow also now that one Striped Bass less than 28" per day will be fair game. John Fuss was fishing north of the Bay Bridge on a charter when he landed this nice fish.

Below the Bay Bridge fishermen trolling for Striped Bass have been concentrating their efforts along the western edges of the shipping channel from Thomas Point south to Point Lookout. The area out in front of Breezy Point and Chesapeake Beach have been producing a lot of Striped Bass catches in the last week and other locations around the bay such as Bloody Point Light, Buoy 83, Buoys 72 and 72A as well as the channel in Tangier Sound and the lower Potomac. Umbrella rigs, tandem rigged bucktails and parachutes, large swim shads and the really brave have also been having good results with large spoons. There are few things that can make more of a mess than a spinning spoon in a trolling spread. The large Striped Bass are feeding on large Menhaden and few things do a better job of imitating a Menhaden than a spoon. Fishermen have been reporting for the last week of large Striped Bass moving into Eastern Bay due to the warmer water temperatures and the large schools of Menhaden in the area. Light tackle fishermen have also been getting into the action by jigging large 10" soft plastics along steep channel edges and prominent points and lumps. Fishermen should familiarize themselves with the dividing lines in Eastern Bay designating the area that is open and the farther eastward area that is catch and release only. The areas are posted on the maps page site at the above right hand corner of this fishing report site, which also has many other useful maps on it. The following link will take you there. http://www.dnr.state.md.us/fisheries/mapindex/index.asp
There have been good reports of Striped Bass less than 28" being found out in front of Hooper's Island and the mouth of the Honga River as well as the lower Potomac this week. There have also been continuing reports of croakers being caught at the mouth of the Honga River, and at the mouths of the major tidal rivers on the lower eastern shore, the Point Lookout area and near Bushwood on the lower Potomac. Some impressive catches of large Speckled Trout are being reported in the Tangier/ Pocomoke Sound area by fishermen drifting bait in channel areas and casting Gulp Mullet swimbaits in shallower areas... White Perch are moving into their summer season areas and offer good fishing for those using bait or casting jigs and spinners near structure. Recreational crabbing continues to be slow in the middle and lower bay regions with only a season's first taste of crabs for those willing to put in the time.
Freshwater fishermen at Deep Creek Lake are enjoying good fishing for a variety of fish this week as Largemouth Bass begin to move into shallower areas in preparation for spawning. Largemouth Bass are taking up residence near and under floating docks and grass beds in the shallower coves. Smallmouth Bass are being found near rocky points and Northern Pike such as the one being held by Eric Richter before being released are being caught.

Trout fishing continues to be good in most trout management waters as trout stocking crews continue to stock trout this week in many of the put and take areas. Be sure to check the trout stocking schedule for updates as they occur and get out and enjoy the weather and some fun trout fishing opportunities. John Mullican reports that the 3" of rain the area received recently has the upper Potomac at flood stage and too dangerous for fishing.
Largemouth Bass in most regions of the state east of Allegany County are either still actively spawning or are off their spawning beds and providing some fun catch and release action as they feed aggressively. Water temperatures are still cool enough that good fishing prevails throughout the day. Fishermen have been having fun casting chatterbaits and poppers into shallow cover and also using spinnerbaits, soft plastics and shallow running crankbaits near grass, spatterdock fields and sunken wood such as fallen tree tops. Tidal rivers such as the Pocomoke on the lower eastern shore, the Susquehanna Flats and nearby tidal rivers as well the tidal Potomac and the multitude of farm ponds and lakes spread across the Maryland landscape all provide Largemouth Bass fishing opportunities. The Baltimore County Reservoirs are a favorite for many fishermen because of the high quality fishing there and their close proximity to population centers. Two reservoirs in particular, Liberty and Prettyboy also hold amazing populations of Smallmouth Bass as evidenced by this beauty that Bryan Wilhelm caught and released at Liberty recently.

Ocean City area surf fishermen are jumping out of their waders this week with excitement as the vanguard of the spring north bound Striped Bass migration began to show up at local beaches. Fishermen are still dealing with the beach structure changes that Sandy left in her wake in some areas, but many are reporting being able to wade across the trough to get to the outer bar this week. Large cut baits of Menhaden and clams have been the favorite choices for fishermen and most know to bring plenty of bait because of skates and spiny dogfish that are eager to chew up baits. Fishermen using smaller baits of Fishbites, cut bait or bloodworms have been catching a lot of blowfish and a few kingfish and small bluefish.
Inside the inlet tautog are being caught on frozen sand fleas and pieces of green crab near the jetties, bulkheads and the Route 50 Bridge. Casting large swim shad and jigs at night has been producing some nice large Striped Bass for fishermen this week. Good flounder fishing is being found in the channels leading to the inlet and the back bay areas. Gulp baits with squid or minnow combinations have been a favorite to help weed out the large number of throwback sized flounder. The Tautog daily creel limit drops to 2 fish per day at 16" on May 16th.
"The world is wide and there must be innumerable wild beautiful places yet unexplored that await the hunter and fisherman. Of these I am always dreaming and creating mental pictures. Yet the waters a fisherman learns to love always call him back. " - Zane Grey

Dodging the Wind
Type: Chesapeake
Region: Mid Bay
Location: Edge of Shipping Channel
Tags: striped bass, perch
Fishing for me lately has largely meant dodging the wind. Several trips in October were spent in West and Rhode River catching perch and an occasional striper on a lee shore. On Sat. (25th) the forecast looked good so we ventured out in search of breaking fish to cast to. Unfortunately the forecast was a little inaccurate. 15 knots can whip up some mighty rough and wet conditions in a small skiff so we stayed in shallow. After several hours we had only one small rockfish. Finally the wind subsided a little we started to search the edges of the shipping channel. Plenty of fish on the depth sounder and birds searching but nothing on top so I started to jig a � oz silver buddy at the 30� contour. I was just about to give it up and Wham! Something grabbed my bait and took off. This fish made several long runs that were so fast I thought I was on to a big bluefish or maybe even a cobia. My wife finally got the net on it and we snapped and quick picture and released it. This fish looked like a prime spawner and we prefer to eat the smaller ones anyway. I later heard that fish were breaking everywhere early Sunday morning.

Lifelong Vegetarian Fathers a Child at 96
A meat-free Indian resident is possibly the oldest man to father a child.
Ramjeet Raghav, a 96-year-old man from Kharkhoda, India, became the oldest person in the world to have a child. Raghav says he wakes up around five in the morning and goes to bed no later than eight at night. The 96-year-old also says that he works on the fields daily and takes two-hour naps every day. Besides his active lifestyle and sleeping habits, Raghav credits a diet of vegetarian food with providing him with strength and vitality. Raghav follows in the footsteps of Karam and Katari Chand, who credit their 87-year marriage in part to their meat-free diets.

XS Scuba 95 Cubic Foot Low Pressure Steel Tank Reviews
Reviewer: Kenny Ivey on 6/18/2014best tank made - not all tanks are made the same. the hot dipped galvanized tanks by worthington are by far the best tanks for the money. unlike other steel tanks that when the protective coating chips off the tank starts to rust and pit these tanks do not. steel tanks keep their negative buoyancy unlike aluminum tanks that float after you burn thru your gas. this lets you dive with less weight. i have me own air compressor so i like the low pressure tanksit is easier on the compressor unit unlike high pressure tanks that beat up a compressor pretty bad. the xs valve is very tough and when the tank is open it shows a green ring around the valve handlered when the air is shut off- my wife likes the...View Full Review
Faber 149 Cubic Foot FX Series High Pressure Steel Tank Reviews
Reviewer: Bruce N. on 7/13/2009Faber 149: one great cylinder. - this is the cylinder to beat all cylinders. i have two of them (not twined) and i couldn't be more pleased. perceived negatives: weight. not really an issue – they are only about 5 lbs heavier than a steel 120 or 130 length: not an issue either. i'm about 5'8" and have no problem at all with their size. for recreational divers that are not doing deco dives the size of these takes the "running low on air" worry out of standard dives (100+ min at 40 feet is easy). even if you are an air hog you will always finish a no-deco with air to spare. if you are a deco diver no problem (pony up to be on the safe side) but i can do 30+ min 130 fsw dive on air and still pop up on the boat with 1500 psi....View Full Review
XS Scuba 80 Cubic Foot High Pressure Steel Tank Reviews
Reviewer: Cara V Tufts on 11/19/2006Ahhhh - This is a perfect little tank. I just bought one of these High Pressure 80s and love it. Its shorter by a few inches but has the same capacity as its larger cousins. The height of the tank is about the same as that of my BC so instead of having to lift my BC up (weight and all) to cinch the strap around the valve, I let my BC rest on whatever surface Im using when coupling my tank to the BC. This makes it easier for me cinch and tighten the straps. Im spoiled and will be buying another one for myself next year and, if hes good, one for my diving buddy for Christmas.
Faber 117 Cubic Foot FX Series High Pressure Steel Tank Reviews
Reviewer: Roderick S. on 3/17/2013This is a very nice tank! - i use this tank for filling a pcp air rifle. almost seems a shame, as it would be a very good diving tank. i really like the white finish. it looks nice and seems very durable with reasonable care. the boot that came on the tank is decent, and it came with a very nice valve, that works well for my purpose. if the tank was to be used for diving, or handled and stored loose, i might get a different boot for it that had better built-in roll resistance, and a slightly larger base for better stability when standing upright. the tank is heavy, but that is to be expected for this type of product. it is not so heavy that it is difficult to handle and move around. overall, im...View Full Review
Faber 108 Cubic Foot Low Pressure Steel Tank Reviews
Reviewer: Scott Michael on 2/17/2009Great tank - I stepped up from an 80 cf aluminum tank. Not only do I have a lot more air, but I find that Im not having the excess buoyancy problems at the end of the dive. You will have to reposition where the tank hangs on your BCD and shed a considerable amount of lead.
Faber 133 Cubic Foot FX Series High Pressure Steel Tank Reviews
Reviewer: scott f. on 10/31/2013133 Faber - Have been diving ranges from 90-120ft. Very much like the lighter weight versus standard steel tanks. Will purchase a few more in the future.
XS Scuba 85 Cubic Foot Low Pressure Steel Tank Reviews
Reviewer: Allen Greathouse on 3/31/2012LP steel tank x2 - Purchased 2 LP 85 steel tanks. Great price which also included shipping! Shipment was via ground with tracking. I got a txt MSG when these were delivered to my home....how cool it that! CA to FL was less than a week ! Happy customer on all counts!! Thanks...tanks are awesome as well! Allen Greathouse
XS Scuba 108 Cubic Foot Low Pressure Steel Tank Reviews
Reviewer: Arthur Woolard on 7/30/2012Great tank - Get a hard fill and you will have 130 cf of air. Great for spear fishing were you need lots of air.
Faber 95 Cubic Foot Low Pressure Steel Tank Reviews
Reviewer: Dennis L. on 7/9/2011Perfect - this is my first steel tank, its awesome, was able to a few pounds in lead. the tank itself arrived from scuba.com very fast without a scratch on it and a vis sticker that my dive shop honored and didnt try to rope me into other fees to get the first fill. i think im going to love this tank!
XS Scuba 121 Cubic Foot Low Pressure Steel Tank Reviews
Reviewer: Max Witzler on 10/13/2007Big Tank! - Its big and heavy but it lasts forever. You can easily get two dives out of one tank. I chose the low pressure tank so that I would always get good fills wheras High pressure tanks are more likely to get short fills. I dont recomend it but I also recieved a 3200 fill. Thats way over the max but you really get alot of air when that happens.
Faber 85 Cubic Foot Low Pressure Steel Tank Reviews
Reviewer: Clifford Kraft on 5/26/2009Faber 85 Cu Ft steel tank - Excellent tank - everything perfect and professional. I like the nice external white paint job. Physical size is good as is weight. 2500 lbs is much easier on your gear and still gets you 85 cu ft of air. Price was good.

As a restaurant named one of the top 10 restaurants in the world, as well as having a celebrity chef renowned for this quirky inventions and scientific experiments with food, I was so looking forward to Dinner. It's actually easier to book than you think, and with some three or four months of advance planning (for the OCD like me), some furious mouse action, and the help of Opentable, you can get an 8pm Saturday reservation.

Despicable Me Minions Bento Box
The best part of Despicable Me? Definitely the minions.
And as I was googling around to find out some more about them, I found out that...
...there's going to a Minions film!
Coming in summer 2015.
For those of you who have read my blog for a while, you may know that I used to love making bento boxes (you can see some on the right). For those of you that are new (hello!), they are a popular Japanese lunch box, and often parents prepare children's ones with rice shaped like cartoon characters, with vegetables and fruit to decorate.

Champagne Heart Cake
So this is my attempt at one of The Great British Bake Off's Showstopper Cakes! It's a vanilla sponge cake, with champagne flavoured icing which are iced to look like roses, with a "secret" pink marzipan centre.
Now try saying that with your mouth full of cake :)
I have to admit, this is probably one of the most difficult and most technical cakes I've ever made. It took me forever, but it was worth it!
Oh, and its finished with a sprinkling of edible pink glitter, of course.

Restaurant 360, Dubrovnik, Croatia
When we arrived in Dubrovnik, we asked our taxi driver about the more famous Restaurant Nautika what he thought of it and his reply was "oh, it's for old people and politicians", but when we asked about Restaurant 360 the reply came "ah, that's a lovely restaurant, it's cooler and for young people!"
And because, you know, we're hip and kosher (at least I think that's what the cool kids say these days) we decided on Restaurant 360. Thanks Mr Taxi Driver!
So the entire restaurant is literally inside the city walls, you eat on top of the walls with a panoramic view of Dubrovnik (hence the name...). It's all very cosy and romantic and posh without being stuffy, which we really liked.

Dubrovnik. The city of blue skies, clear seas, and a whole lot of seafood.
This is the view from our hotel room balcony. It was beautiful. We literally got there, ran on to the balcony, and took a deep breath of lovely fresh sea air.
And I thought...
Dubrovnik is a coastal town (and one of the most visited detonations) in Croatia, where you're right on the coast of the Adriatic.
And you know what this means?
I did wonder if at some point I was starting to grow gills from all of this seafood. Even if I did, it would have been so worth it.

Associated Press
If you want to know how complex, polarizing, confusing and utterly messed up the issue of performance-enhancing drugs is, consider the reaction to the drug cases against two of sports' biggest fallen stars.
Barry Bonds, who never flunked a drug test, was pursued relentlessly for years by anti-drug and legal authorities, and when they finally pinned something on him nobody rallied to his defense. It's safe to say that most cheered on the pursuit of the cheating home-run king. Why? Because he was — let's see, what's the word? — a jerk, and there was little question of his guilt.
Enter Lance Armstrong, who also never flunked a drug test and was pursued relentlessly for years by the same authorities until they recently stripped him of his Tour de France titles. The media has rallied around him like a home-town hero for the most part. Why? Because of his charm and the great work he has done in the cause of cancer fundraising — never mind that there can be no reasonable question of his guilt.
Washington Post columnist Sally Jenkins, who authored a biography of the cyclist, began a recent column thus: "First of all, Lance Armstrong is a good man." And then, following the script for Team Armstrong, she claimed Armstrong is actually the victim and drug officials are the bad guys.
Well, Jenkins is not the first media type to fall for Armstrong's charisma and good works, not to mention his Hollywood-worthy story of overcoming cancer. Rick Reilly, maybe the finest sports columnist ever, made a fool of himself gushing and fawning over Armstrong in a column a few years ago.
"Doesn't Armstrong deserve the benefit of the doubt?" he wrote. "A man who's worked tirelessly for and inspired people you know, people in your life, people who don't even know yet that they will need him for inspiration? ... Doesn't he deserve at least that?"
So now we're supposed to determine which drug user is a good guy and which isn't, as if the job of catching cheats weren't nearly impossible already? Bonds is a serial jerk, so who cares? Armstrong is a good guy, so give him the benefit of the doubt.
(Memo to Sally: If Armstrong is such a good guy, why are so many teammates and former friends ratting him out and providing the backbone of the case against him?)
Well, drugs in sport is about as complicated as immigration. There are no easy remedies. Team Armstrong has been masterful in its response to drug charges over the years. Its strategy: Deny, deny, deny and play the victim card. It was almost comical how much smoke collected around Armstrong and yet he continually claimed there was no fire.
Team Armstrong's final act was both original and genius — Armstrong capitulated, saying he will no longer fight drug accusations and calling drug officials' pursuit of him "an unconstitutional witch hunt." With a single stroke, he rides off into the sunset as a sympathetic figure who, by the way, never has to defend himself against the charges. Brilliant.
Cut through all the baloney and gamesmanship and the only issue is whether he took PEDs. The evidence is overwhelming that he did. It strains credibility to believe that he not only beat cycling's best for seven straight years, but beat them all while they were on drugs and he was clean. Drug use is rampant in the sport. The hard truth is that Armstrong wouldn't even have a platform for his charities if he hadn't cheated. The whole thing is based on a lie.
So are most sports. Do you believe anything you see now? If you are not suspicious of Jamaican sprinters, Barry Bonds, Flo Jo, Chinese swimmers, most track and field world records, most cyclists, many NFL players, prodigious home run hitters, anyone who suddenly starts to run faster or jump farther near their 30th birthday, anyone who makes a sudden off-the-chart improvement, then you are uninformed. Sure, it's just a coincidence that baseball's home run binge of a decade ago came to an abrupt halt.

'Coronation Street' actor cleared of sex charges - 0 Comments
LONDON — A British jury has cleared Michael Le Vell, a longtime star of the British soap opera "Coronation Street," of child sex abuse charges.
The 48-year-old actor was found not guilty Tuesday of 12 offenses, including five counts of rape.
Le Vell is a nationally known figure because of his 30 years playing mechanic Kevin Webster on the popular television show, which is set in a fictional working-class district in northwestern England.

- RIAs and Customer Identification Just as RIAs owe a duty to diligently protect their clients privacy and guard against theft, firms also play a vital role in customer identification. Although RIAs are not subject to an anti-money laundering rule, securities regulators expect advisors to address these issues in their policies and procedures.
- Meeting and Exceeding Clients and Regulators' Expectations Although it can be difficult, there are ways for RIAs to meet or exceed client expectations, increase customer satisfaction, and help firms retain current clients and attract new ones.
In its quest to raise cash and get risky assets off its balance sheet, Credit Suisse Group found some willing buyers very close to home: its own employees.
Senior bankers who got illiquid loans and bonds as part of their pay participated in the Expanded Partner Asset Facility, which closed Dec. 31, and put a total of $450 million of their own funds into it.
Bloomberg reported that the new fund would use the leverage of borrowed money to buy more than $450 million of assets. The report cited someone familiar with the arrangement saying that Credit Suisse may act as the lender to the employee fund, and the reduction in so-called risk-weighted assets will reduce Credit Suisse's capital requirements.
Brad Hintz, an analyst at Sanford C. Bernstein & Co. in New York, was quoted saying, "This is an advantage to the company, if priced correctly, in that it will reduce their capital charges and liquefy their balance sheet. The question is what goes into it, how is it being valued and are they using a third-party firm to value it? Because to do anything else is a transfer of value from the shareholders to the employees."
A person familiar with the details was cited saying that the bank did not use a third party to value assets, which were transferred at market prices in accordance with the bank's compliance controls.
Douglas Elliott, a former investment banker and now an economic studies fellow at the Brookings Institution in Washington, was quoted saying, "If the price at which you're transferring the assets is based on market pricing, then you could just as easily take it to the market and do the same thing. If it's not based on market pricing, then you have the risk you're selling it too low."
As part of their 2008 compensation, people familiar with the matter said that Credit Suisse had given approximately 2,000 managing directors and directors, its most senior ranks of employees, stakes in a $5 billion pool of illiquid assets. By mid-2010 the fund's value had risen as much as 60%, although more recent data on the pool's performance has not been made public.

I love the renovation shows, because I have no imagination for things like that but I wish I did. Anyway, while I am surprised to hear that David of Love it or List it is married with children, since I figured they were both gay (they do that promo spot in which they say people actually think they are married to each other, and that would "never work, never!"), I guess I haven't wondered it about most of the people because I don't care.... But I would like to clarify that not being able to find the right person does not automatically mean gay. It could also mean picky or difficult or damaged or unlucky or busy or cautious or uncompromising or choosy or...anything, really. Anything.
So, best wishes to whoever it is and I hope he eventually finds someone to share his path (unless he prefers to be alone).WUWT?http://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-64895473659137154312014-06-12T23:36:54.270-07:002014-06-12T23:36:54.270-07:00Anthony Carrino of Kitchen Cousins pings my gaydar...Anthony Carrino of Kitchen Cousins pings my gaydar big time.

Bromstad makes no effort to hide that he's gay.

I always thought Mike Holmes was gay but he's not. He has his daughter on (not that that means anything).

My favorite though is Sarah Richardson, HGTV's answer to Ina Garten on Food Network. She could give some of the "divas" we read about on this site lessons on how to own being an entitled bitch. She and Tommy are amazing. They walk right up to camp and then step back.

I like Genevieve too. I absolutely hate "Love it or List It".

There's nothing like a House Hunters marathon on a rainy day.

I'll stop now.

QCF: Hyrule Warriors
or the last twenty-eight years, we've all welcomed Nintendo's taciturn hero of legend with open arms, navigating him through the most dangerous quests, filled with perilous trials like pushing blocks, and lighting conspicuous torches, and…yeah, that's right folks—twenty-eight years of this.
The legend of Zelda has certainly earned its iconic stature within games today, but aside from a few exceptions, it's becoming more and more apparent that the formula and design of the more recent entries have arguably reached a point of tedium. The Big N's elfin princess and hero could use a change of pace, and Nintendo answered enthusiastically answered that call.
Hyrule Warriors was the farthest thing I honestly has in mind for the franchise, but after finally getting my grubby mitts on it; I humbly, and most fortunately admit that I was wrong—not only is this experimental spin-off a refreshing palate-cleanser, but it's a direction I wouldn't mind the series returning to in subsequent releases for years to come.

State Department Concerns Raised About Fewer US Drone Strikes Amid Continuing Terror AttacksSubmitted by barracuda_trader on Thu, 09/26/2013 - 05:24
And now a word from our MIC Sponsors
Published September 26, 2013
The number of U.S. drone strikes appears to have dropped significantly over the past several months while terrorists have staged dozens of attacks, a trend raising concerns for the top House Republican on national intelligence.
New statistics from the West Point Counterterroism Center show more than 60 terror attacks across the world since July 1 -- most recently, the attack at a Kenya mall last weekend in which more than 60 people were killed.
Meanwhile, the number of U.S. drone strikes in Pakistan and Yemen – the hotbed for Al Qaeda and other terror groups -- appears to have decreased significantly over roughly the same period.
The publication The Long War Journal reports a total of 22 strikes since May in those countries.
The apparent trend of fewer strikes amid perceptions of a weakened Al Qaeda and diminished terror threats is drawing concern from Rep. Mike Rogers, chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.
"It's not diminishing," the Michigan Republican told Fox News on Tuesday. "There have been counterterrorism changes made by the administration that have concerned us all, things that we've been working on for a period of months that we're trying to work through that are very, very concerning. This is no time to retreat."
The White House has not commented on the apparent decrease in drone strikes but has referred reporters to President Obama's May 23 speech at the National Defense University in which he discussed the county's evolving efforts to combat the war on terror.

I understand Tonka. One of my "friends" who dumped me described herself as "practically perfect in every way." She had a great hair, a good figure, two masters in fine arts, very creative and funny. Had a great job, nice house, cute kid and good husband (well, he's sort of a drama queen but he's an opera singer so what do you expect :D) and I was always slightly jealous. I never wished ill on them even after she treated me so shoddily.<quoted text>Energy?
Your ex cheated on you. You broke up. You have moved on with your life. You don't think about him. Then 2 months later someone tells you he got the clap. It takes too much energy to smile about it?
I'm not suggesting people are sitting around spending time wishing misfortune to befall others. But when you come across news that exactly that has happened, you have 3 options: sorrow, glee, indifference. I think most people will experience some level of glee if misfortune befalls their enemies. A sense of "what goes around, comes around".
But I heard a few months ago that they got a divorce and I couldn't help myself; I did a little happy dance. I've gone back to feeling bad for the kid and ex-husband but I was initially gleeful that Ms. Perfect had turned out not to be so perfect.

CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE, week 'whatever'
I didn't log last week's adventure because I didn't have energy or life in me or thoughts. So here it is, now:
For the past two years, I've been so busy in NYC that my body has learned how to multi-task during my hangovers into illnesses (fevers, sinus congestion, etc).
I have to admit, it's a weird superpower to have.
My body says to me: "oh, you're not going to leave your bed anyway, so now in addition to having a piercing headache/earthshattering nausea…. you also have a fever. If you won't give me time to recharge, I'll MAKE YOU RECHARGE."
But lately I haven't been drinking away my stress, so my body was left no choice but to TAKE ME DOWN.
I had a 3 day fever last week. That's not new. I almost failed french because of a 3 day fever. But what is new is remembering how HELPLESS I feel when I am sick.
I whine more that a trust fund hipster that doesn't yet have an iphone 6.
"How do I even GET food?" actually crossed my mind.
It's a lesson learned. I'm never getting sick again. If you see me even thinking about getting sick, please remind me how much it sucks. It's not worth it. No matter how many late nights in my childhood we spent together cuddled under a blanket with a cold wet towel on my head—- It is a bully that doesn't deserve my time.
