After enduring harsh barbs from some of her neighbors on N. Maple Street in North Massapequa, Annette Genco is still fighting to turn her childhood home into a day care center.
Currently living in Long Beach, Genco has poured thousands of dollars into an effort to repair and renovate the house, which she said was in major disrepair. And while most neighbors appreciate her efforts, she said a vocal few have turned her day care dream into a nightmare.
"From what I understand, the people who are complaing have nothing left to do with their lives. Who could be against babies?" said Genco. "I am doing everything 100 percent legal. I'm getting every single certification I need. I already got fire and safety approval and we are already registered with the state. We are 90 percent through the application process, but because of my lovely neighbors, my contractors had to stop working on the house."
Neighbors against the day care center went to the Oyster Bay Town Board to halt construction on the house. In a statement, Town Supervisor John Venditto said the town is not against day care centers but to protect the public health, safety and welfare of children, as well as the surrounding community, there are rules and regulations that must be followed, including the town's zoning regulations and building codes.
"At this time, there are a number of unanswered questions with the proposed day care center in North Massapequa," said Venditto. "We are currently in the process of collecting information to determine whether or not the town's zoning authority is applicable. With that being said, the town's building code always applies to ensure that the structure is safe and sound. Ultimately, as is typical of the Town of Oyster Bay, the Town and its departments will do the right thing by the entire community."
In establishing a day care center, Genco is trying to do the right thing by her mother, who she said inspired the idea for a day care center.
"My mother loved children and she would find any excuse to invite the neighborhood children over the house," said Genco. "This is something that I knew my mother would love from up on high."
Genco said the day care center is also a dream of her caregiver of three years.
"When my father passed, I said let me do this for my mom and my caregiver," she said. "This is a private day care center for working professionals. This is not a low-income thing that is going to bring a bad element into the neighborhood."
Genco said neighhors' complaints about traffic have no basis. She said mothers would drop their child off at the center at 7 or 8 a.m. and then head to work. They would come back at 6 or 7 p.m. to pick them up. Plus, she said has a driveway that holds six cars, so there would be no cars parked on the street as the day care center would only care for eight infants at a time.
"Moreover, the parents wouldn't be there for more than 10 minutes," she said. "And these are people who would be able to afford private health care. This is not some slum."
The next step in the process for Genco is to hire an arbitrator to fight those opposed to her day care center, which she dubbed "Connie's Place" after her mother. This, of course, will cost Genco more money — but it is a price she is more than willing to pay.
"It is going to take years to make up what I'm spending, but I'm not in it for the money," she said. "I'm in it for the love and respect I have for both my mother and my caregiver. I'm trying to help my caregiving, a mother with three kids, have her dream come true. I'm also trying to bring the laughter back into the house where I grew up and give mommies and daddies a safe place to keep their babies while they go off to work. So what's wrong with that?"

The events on Sept. 11, 2001 had a profound effect on nearly all in the tri-state area, but for first responders, the effects were overwhelming. Long-time Massapequa resident Michael Smith, a member of the New York Fire Department, experienced those effects firsthand.
"While I've always been a person that could appreciate life, after 9/11 I became so distraught," he said. "I realized I need to do something I want to do — something I love to do."
A 30-year veteran of the fire department, Smith retired in 2002. He and his wife of 33 years, Teresa, began to look for a place they could enjoy life. This mindset brought them to the East End of Long Island, where they often went for day trips. They settled down in a home in Orient Point in 2004; in a home that needed quite a bit of work. And when it was time to landscape the property, a new idea took root — a vineyard.

Chris Wallace Owns NRA President: That's Ridiculous and You Know it, Sir!by Free Britney at . Comments
Fox News and the NRA butted heads over gun control this morning.
NRA CEO Wayne LaPierre reiterated his organization's claim that all children deserve the same amount of protection that the President Obama's daughters receive.
Host Chris Wallace responded, "That's ridiculous and you know it, sir."
The interview got particularly heated when Wallace brought up the controversial NRA ad labeling Obama an elitist hypocrite for opposing armed security in schools.
"They also face a threat that most children do not face," Wallace said of Obama's daughters, Malia and Sasha, who receive Secret Service protection.
"Tell that to the people in Newtown," LaPierre responded.
"You really think that the president's children are the same kind of target as every other child in America?" Wallace said. "That's ridiculous and you know it, sir."
LaPierre came out swinging at other points in the interview as well, even insinuating that the White House wants background checks as a way of tracking citizens.
"I think what they'll do is they'll turn this universal [background] check on the law-abiding into a universal registry on law-abiding people," he said.
Wallace said the White House hasn't mentioned any universal registry.
"And ObamaCare wasn't a tax until they needed it to be a tax," LaPierre responded, referencing the 2010 health care law and 2012 Supreme Court ruling.
"I don't think you can trust these people," the NRA president added, apparently unmoved and not swayed by yesterday's Obama gun photo release.
What do you think of the NRA's infamous Obama ad:
What do you think of the push for more gun control?
they're both human but is indeed there a difference between a Queen & a Tramp, CRAZY "SIR"!!
Sorry Aaron, when even Faux Noise goes after one of its own, as Chris Wallace did to La Pierre, he got owned!
How do they figure La pierre got owned? Based on what i just read he killed Chris.

Savage Love
I have an awesome relationship with an awesome guy.
Published: April 5, 2012
I have an awesome relationship with an awesome guy. He loves me and takes care of me. I'm GGG and he's vanilla. I only draw the line at poop, animals and children. But he's never asked me for anything other than vanilla sex. Which is why I don't know what to do. I went downstairs late the other night, and he was sitting on the couch masturbating while stroking the cat, which was sitting on his chest. The cat was sitting ON him, Dan, WHILE he was yanking himself. I don't know if he saw me. I went right back upstairs and went to bed. In the morning, he acted like nothing happened. Now I don't know what to do. Confront him? Get him help? Get rid of the cat?
Can't Analyze This
Pets want to be petted, and some pets are pushy about getting their pet on. Bearing that in mind, CAT, I want you to pick the two likeliest scenarios out of these four options:
A. Your boyfriend is attracted to your cat.
B. Your awesome boyfriend is capable of doing two things at once.
C. Your boyfriend fantasizes about fucking the Almond Roca out of your cat's ass.
D. Your awesome boyfriend needed to rub one out and he was considerate enough to slip out of bed and go downstairs and there he was, lying back on the couch, concentrating on the task at hand, when the cat jumped up on his chest.
Now, you were there, CAT, and I wasn't, which means you're in a much better position to judge. But I think B and D are the likeliest scenarios: Your boyfriend was having a wank when the cat jumped on him, for a few moments he divided his attentions between stroking the cat and stroking himself and at some point he pushed the cat off his chest and turned back to the task at hand.
But, again, you were there, CAT, I wasn't. So did it look like your boyfriend was masturbating about the cat, with the cat or at the cat? Or did it look like your boyfriend was masturbating in the immediate vicinity of the cat? These are questions that only you can answer.
And here's a question that only your boyfriend can answer, CAT, and I think you should put it to him: "I came down the other night and you were beating off with the cat sitting on your chest – what was that about?"
And here's the answer you're likely to get: "I was jerking it and the cat jumped up on me and I petted her for a minute mid-wank – but I didn't want to lose my hard-on and have to start all over, so the part of my brain that regulates higher boner function instructed my right hand to go into erection-maintenance mode. But I wasn't perving on the cat, honey, I swear."
Your awesome boyfriend will say that even if he was perving on the cat, CAT. But if he has the decency and good sense to lie to you about it, you should have the decency and good sense to pretend to believe him.
I'm a 25-year-old straight male who's into big-dick porn. I'm not into the dicks per se, Dan. It's the domination and dirty-talk aspects of big-dick porn that turn me on, i.e., hearing a woman say things like "That's huge!" "Stop!" "You're too big for me!" I'm not too bad off down there, but I want more. Significantly more. Do you have any recommendations on enlargement techniques? Pumps, pills, whatever? I have a partner who is sub and very GGG. I would really like to be able to play these fantasies out, but I know nothing of the feasibility.

An Exit Strategy for the Failed War on Drugs

Decriminalise Drug Use, Say Experts After Six-Year Study
Advisors say no serious rise in consumption is likely if possession of small amounts of controlled drugs is allowed
A six-year study of Britain's drug laws by leading scientists, police officers, academics and experts has concluded it is time to introduce decriminalisation.
The report by the UK Drug Policy Commission (UKDPC), an independent advisory body, says possession of small amounts of controlled drugs should no longer be a criminal offence and concludes the move will not lead to a significant increase in use.
The experts say the criminal sanctions imposed on the 42,000 people sentenced each year for possession of all drugs – and the 160,000 given cannabis warnings – should be replaced with simple civil penalties such as a fine, attendance at a drug awareness session or a referral to a drug treatment programme.
They also say that imposing minimal or no sanctions on those growing cannabis for personal use could go some way to undermining the burgeoning illicit cannabis factories controlled by organised crime.
But their report rejects any more radical move to legalisation, saying that allowing the legal sale of drugs such as heroin or cocaine could cause more damage than the existing drugs trade.
Caravan for Peace and Justice
A Trans-border Caravan for Peace and Justice with the Poet and Peace Leader Javier Sicilia
More than 60,000 people have been killed in drug violence in Mexico in the last few years. 10,000 people have been disappeared and over 160,000 displaced. Global Exchange and Mexico's Movement for Peace with Justice and Dignity (MPJD) led by Javier Sicilia have made "End the Drug War- No More Violence" campaign a priority in 2012. Starting in August, a high profile caravan will cross the US starting in San Diego/Los Angeles, heading east along the US-Mexico border and then up to Chicago, New York and DC.
Sicilia's son, Juan Francisco was murdered along with six friends on a fateful night in March of 2011. He has since become an inspirational voice for peace, justice and reform– drawing huge crowds throughout Mexico. He comes north this summer with a call for change in the bi-national policies that have inflamed a six-year Drug War, super-empowered organized crime, corrupted Mexico's vulnerable democracy, claimed lives and devastated human rights on both sides of the border.
2012 offers a uniquely fertile moment to internationalize the struggle for peace in Mexico. Latin American elite opinion is shifting rapidly on the question of ending drug prohibition. This call for reform has not yet echoed in the United States. The Caravan represents an unprecedented effort by Mexican civil society to impact U.S. thinking and policy.

"With great junk, comes great responsibility" - Better Off Ted
And a good day to you, sinners and miscreants, ne'erdowells and troublemakers! It's a fine Thursday, which means you awoke this morning with thoughts of my junk on your mind. It's okay, I know it's true. Why this is the season that sugarplum fairies dream of my junk. When stockings are stuffed with thoughts of my junk (as opposed to the rest of the year when stockings stuff my junk). It's the hap-happiest season of all! Extra bonus points to the first person to write and record a Christmas novelty song primarily featuring my junk.
By now you know the drill: My junk does not mean what you think it means. If it did, I would either be arrested or elected to congress (or both). Instead, it refers to tiny tidbits of movie news too small to blow up into a big post. Instead, I gather them all underneath the image of a creepy-ass junk drawer (taken from Highlights Magazine FOR CHILDREN). I start off every week with a whimsical story about one of the items above. Today's item is the braid of hair. (WARNING: The contents of this story have been stolen from a story told to me by my father-in-law, wife, and brother-in-law). Suzie wanted a pony more than anything in the whole world. Even though she was a rotten, angry child who beat other smaller children and routinely caused her parents to wonder if Rosemary's Baby was a documentary, her desire for a small horse was so big that she behaved for an entire year. She didn't light ANYTHING on fire, nor did she endanger the lives of small woodland creatures. And for Suzie, that's progress. So come Christmas time, she was SURE that she would find herself the proud owner of a pony sure to be used as a getaway vehicle. When she unwrapped her last present she was confused...and enraged. Her parents quickly pointed outside, for where else would a pony be kept? She bolted out the door and found tied around a post a small braided rope that was frayed at one end. "I guess he must have gotten away," her parents said. Then they laughed. That warm feeling of a prank well played would soon fade beneath the ill-temper of a psychotic pre-teen.
Okay, enough of that nonsense. Let's get to the movie news too small to warrant more attention this week!
1.) Miramax is getting in the business of bad decisions - I'm fine with Bad Santa 2.
The first one had Lauren Graham looking hot and allowed me to find Billy Bob Thornton as vile as I always do and still enjoy the movie. So news that Miramax and new partners (or reunited old partners, depending on how you look at it) The Weinsteins are making a sequel is fine to me. Less fine is the following list of other movies they're considering sequels to:
That's a big-bulging Santa bag full of doody-doody pie, isn't it? A Copland sequel? Really? Like we're all still wondering what happened to that one-eared dude Stallone played? A SWINGERS sequel? How do you capture lightning in a bottle like that again? Shall We Dance 2? Allow me to answer: No. No we shall not. I'm hoping that most of these are direct-to-video so I can pretend they don't exist. Oh, and I believe the official rules state that if you make a sequel to Shakespeare in Love the Oscar officially gets revoked. Bad ideas are afoot, y'all.
2.) Because Tom Cruise doesn't understand that people are still making fun of him - If you're Tom Cruise, don't you do ANYTHING to avoid unintentional laughs in your direction? I mean, if you want to make a comedy, that's fine. Then people are supposed to laugh at you. But if you think that starring in the big screen version of Rock of Ages won't get you mocked, you're craz....oooooooh, riiiiiight. The fact that Gwyneth Paltrow (shown below in bad-idea dress version) is in makes sense.
She can sing. Tom Cruise can't. I honestly think he believes this is a career-redeeming move and not another trip to the chuckle hut. Nobody has ever, ever benefited from singing 80s butt-rock tunes. Ever.
3.) What Oz was missing was dark violence - Remember Wizard of Oz.
No really, remember it because people are GOING to start sullying the crap out of it. In addition to that weird origin story of the Wizard that's coming from Sam Raimi and Robert Downey Jr, a slew of other strange projects are coming up. Why? Well, the characters are both familiar and in the public domain. So if you don't HAVE to pay money for brand recognition, the only thing stopping you is respect for the original work. Yeah, somehow that delayed things for a few decades, but no longer. Now we're getting stuff like a stop-motion version called Oz Wars. Don't worry though, it's written by the guy who wrote Space Chimps 1 and 2. That makes me think two things. First: There was a Space Chimps 2? Second: When he promises "a contemporary, freaky action-packed PG-13 audience pleaser, with Dorothy caught up in a whirlwind of warrior witches, black magic, martial arts and monsters." What he means is "I will make what George Lucas supposedly did to your childhood look like a friendly hug from a kind grandfather." I know they won't leave Oz alone, but come on...there has to be SOME kind of standard, right?
4.) Wait? Scorsese's doing a movie with WHO? Oh...right... - Scorsese likes the same dudes.
His idea of change is having Leo DiCaprio wear different clothes and speak with a DIFFERENT Boston accent. So it's no surprise that The Irishman, his next flick, is going to star...Robert DeNiro, Joe Pesci, and Al Pacino. This is great news for Pesci, who was last seen in the dumpster behind an apartment complex. Look, I don't mind reuniting most of the cast behind one of the greatest gangster movies of all time...and throwing Pacino in there. I think that's swell. I just want Marty to try new things. He is doing a kids movie kind of, so I can't bag on him too hard. Maybe it's that step he took outside of his box that made him freak out and run back to familiar ground. Hang in there, Marty. It'll all be okay.
5.) Trailers, Parked - Some really, really good ones this week. No joking around...okay, it's more like a good sandwich...with great bread and homoerotic lunchmeat in the middle. You'll understand in a minute.
Tree of Life is Terrence Malick's return to cinema. It looks pretty. I'm sure it will also be confusing and boring. Lots of people will like it and I will probably be on the fence. I'm just saying, it can't be worse than The New World. Yeesh that was boring. Have a look.
Fast Five is the next in the increasingly ridiculous series that sees Vin Diesel and Paul Walker trying not to kiss other dudes. Seriously, if you don't see the homoerotic tension in these movies, you are so far in denial it's ridiculous. Personally, I love it. Hell, the still that people are circulating around for the movie makes it look like Vin Diesel and The Rock are about to just have at it. So here you are: More homoeroticism that will be celebrated by homophobes. This series rules.
Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides may be great. Why? Well it does away with the dead weight of Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley, so we can finally focus on the only character we cared about anyway. I always thought there was more fun to be had with the series but those other characters sucked the life out of the movie. See what you think.
Okay, that's it folks. Hope my junk was satisfying as per usual! See you tomorrow for the weekend planning!
Follow me on Twitter...I love you.

This is the second to the last Things You Should Buy Me before Christmas. So it's Things You Should Buy Me before Christmas Eve. I am going to assume that most of you have made glorious purchases for me, you just haven't sent them yet because you don't want to ruin the surprise. It's either that or you don't think I've been a good boy this year, and I assure you I have been. In all seriousness, I'm trying to be responsible with this column and really show you cool stuff that you can get for nerdy friends of yours...and all of us have a little nerd in us, right? His name is Melvin and he lives in your pancreas.
Here are the things I think you should buy me (...fine...you can also buy these for other people) this week: 1.) I want to go to there - To me, there are three kinds of nerd merch: (1) - The kind that is dorky as all bejeesus but you don't care because it's so awesome; (2) The kind that you should, in fact, be ashamed of (it's why God invented walk-in closets); and (3) The kind that is so cool, it's almost not even a nerd thing anymore. Falling into that third category is the work of Justin Van Genderen. Inspired by the travel posters that everybody hangs everywhere these days, Justin made art for places I WOULD like to go:
Seriously, that's borderline classy. Sure, tiny Batman and itty-bitty Spider-man are there upon inspection, but otherwise that's just classy modern art. Justin has a few others, including Superman (if you're so inclined) and an awesome Fantastic Four one. Whichever one you choose, you will be the most upscale dork in your posse. Actually, what do we nerds travel in? Flocks? Gaggles? I'm going with gaggle. A gaggle of nerds. I like it.
2.) By the power of EBAY! - This is brought to you by Toplessrobot.com, who has a great list of nerd gifts for you who are indecisive about what to give the nerds in your life (hint - don't give a coupon book for physical touching...they will expire before use). My favorite on the list was something at one point I had:
Oh, Great Muppet Caper, how I would drink from your cups of awesome! True, you can't just order these from a retailer. You'll have to ebay that shit, but it's totally worth it. I mean, do you see the fine craftsmanship on those glasses? Why, I bet they have barely any lead-based materials in them! Wouldn't a nice glass of whiskey taste even better when supped from Miss Piggy's head? Yes. Yes it would.
3.) It's a repeat, I know - This Threadless shirt is (A) the only shirt I've repeated mention of and (B) on sale. B is part of the reason for A. In addition to that, zombies are just everywhere these days. Most shirts are cute, but few are just awesome. If you were to encapsulate the coolest aspect of a zombie apocalypse on one bad-ass looking shirt, it would go like this:
Boom. Perfect zombie shirt. Don't say I never did anything for ya. Well that's it for this week. I promise to hit one out of the park next week, even though by then it will be too late to order something that will arrive for Christmas. Don't blame me, blame the calendar yo.
Follow me on Twitter or I'll feed you to the zombie horde.

Movie news during the holiday season...pardon me for a second HOLY CRAP CHRISTMAS IS ONLY 10 DAYS AWAY AND I AM WOEFULLY, WOEFULLY UNPREPARED...is really slow. Everyone is winding down, studios are counting piles of money bigger than your house, and nobody really says or does crap. That means we get little notes like these two tiny things:
1.) Jon Favreau is not directing Iron Man 3. This sounds more shocking than it is and more terrifying than it should be. Iron Man 2 was good. Iron Man was great. That is the general consensus, and unlike anti-government extremists who grab their guns at the mere sound of the ending suffix "sensus," I have to agree. Part of the reason the first film worked was surprise, that's for sure. The rest of it was the chemistry between all involved. They played fast-and-loose with the script and came out winners because Robert Downey Jr was the man and Favreau was flexible enough to make it work. The second film was an exercise in overconfidence. It was TOO scriptless, TOO disjointed. It could have used a bit more actual, logistical work. It was still fun, but it proved that you can't just wing it every time and hit a home run. Cowboys and Aliens will tell us who the real Favreau is as a director. If it has the same problems as the second Iron Man, then I'm fine with him leaving that franchise. He's got another huge project lined up, called Magic Kingdom, which will involve all sorts of Disney characters. Speculation has it Marvel didn't want to pay Favreau big bucks, Favreau didn't want a fight, and the rest is history. I think it could be fine. Provided they get the right guy in place for the third film, all is well. I actually hope this means they get someone a little more hands-on and we finally see the Iron Man movie I was promised in the first film: He fights Mandarin in a real, full-blown fight while the drinking issues are addressed. Could be great. Anyhoo, best wishes Johnny F. You'll be just fine.
2.) I liked True Grit. I can't give you a full review because the movie doesn't open for like a week still, but I am permitted to dangle first impressions. I think audiences will be surprised how much fun the movie is, how much of a pure crowd-pleaser it is, and how well paced it is. I also think they're in for a surprise as to the genre. This is a Western. Not one of those new-fangled hybrids that impose modern mentality on Western framework. No, this is a WESTERN. It could have been shot 50 years ago. I know some smart-ass is saying "It was shot 50 years ago, back when they made the original." Well that's the point. The point is you can still make damn good Westerns today and they still work. One more thing about the original: John Wayne was the Denzel Washington of his era. He had talent to be sure but most of that was just charisma. He had no range, he played every part the same, and even if you like him you have to admit both of those things. Jeff Bridges is twice the actor Wayne was, and you're going to freak over how great his character is. The only reason he wasn't nominated for the Golden Globe (and the only reason the young girl wasn't nominated either) is because The Hollywood Foreign Press Association is the dumbest collection of whores and sycophants not holding elected office. Look for my full review soon, but just know that you have something awesome to look forward to.

The story behind ESPN's "30 for 30" documentary on Ben Wilson
By PATRICK Z. McGAVIN For Sun-Times Media October 23, 2012 6:26PM
Article Extras

Updated: November 15, 2012 6:40AM
Coodie Simmons was a 13-year-old seventh-grader living in Beverly in November 1984 when he learned about the shooting of Simeon basketball star Ben Wilson.
''Back then, we saw a lot of people get shot and be OK,'' he said.
''The next morning, I was home when I found out he died, and I was crying like he was my brother.''
The hip-hop video director and filmmaker is part of the celebrated collective Coodie and Chike with New Orleans native Chike Ozah. Their first feature film, ''Benji,'' which was Wilson's nickname, is a sorrowful and powerful documentary about Wilson's brief though incandescent life.
Made under the auspices of ESPN's ''30 for 30'' series, the movie played Tuesday night on the sports network.
Simmons graduated from Julian and studied mass communications at Northern Illinois. He met Ozah on their groundbreaking video for Kanye West's ''Through the Wire.'' Just as they deployed a striking use of Polaroids in that video, the filmmakers interpolate archival footage, first-person interviews and expressive black-and-white animation in relating Wilson's alternately remarkable and tragic story.
They frame Wilson's rise against the backdrop of Harold Washington's political career and the arrival of Michael Jordan, interspersed with gang violence and the introduction of crack cocaine.
The filmmakers point out that Wilson's murder was the 669th that year in Chicago.
''That's the only one we talk about,'' Simmons said.
''We wanted to tell the story of Chicago and how I felt, as a young man growing up there, with the danger of gangs, the thrill of house parties, where there was a lot of fun but also that bit of danger.''
The most chilling parts of the film deal with the parallel story of Billy Moore, the 16-year-old convicted of Wilson's murder.
Wilson, who helped Simeon create a high school basketball dynasty with a state-best six state titles, is the forebearer to Nick Anderson, Derrick Rose and now Jabari Parker. Wilson, the movie asserts, is ''a mythical figure fixed in Chicago's collective memory.''

When the Fed was imposed upon the public by the cartel of big banks and their hired economists, they told us that the Fed was needed to provide needed stability to the economic system. After the Fed was founded, during the 1920s, the Establishment economists and bankers proclaimed that the American economy was now in a marvelous New Era, an era in which the Fed, employing its modern scientific tools, would stabilize the monetary system and eliminate any future business cycles. The result: it is undeniable that, ever since the Fed was visited upon us in 1914, our inflations have been more intense, and our depressions far deeper, than ever before.
There is only one way to eliminate chronic inflation, as well as the booms and busts brought by that system of inflationary credit: and that is to eliminate the counterfeiting that constitutes and creates that inflation. And the only way to do that is to abolish legalized counterfeiting: that is, to abolish the Federal Reserve System, and return to the gold standard, to a monetary system where a market-produced metal, such as gold, serves as the standard money, and not paper tickets printed by the Federal Reserve.

Categories Local News & Sports
Modern minimalist design has barnstormed through Santa Fe with a vengeance. From the slew of new buildings going up around Site Santa Fe in the railyard, to shops, art galleries, and new homes around town, the vogue for pared-down clean lines and functionality is flourishing here. In a 400-year-old town with a distinctive regional aesthetic inclined towards ornamental scrolls and flourishes, the appeal might seem contradictory. But in fact, modernism feels right at home here. Both the pueblo and territorial styles of traditional adobe architecture developed a strong clarity and sparseness in its silhouette. It's what appealed to Georgia O'Keeffe and still remains timeless.
Still, the concept of distilling everything in a room down to its essentials can get a bit tiresome-conveying an ambience of refined restraint in six different shades of beige is about as welcoming and interesting as a coma. Step into Santa Fe Modern Home, over in the purple-hued Pacheco Park complex, and you instantly see a more inventive and unique take on modern minimalism at work. Owner and designer Page Kelleher has mixed contemporary furnishings and accessories with a Southwestern sensibility that suggests the myriad ways in which artistic vision can interpret life. All the pieces in Kelleher's store have individuality, but the emphasis is on craftsmanship and the beauty of the materials, rather than on projecting a calculated impression of hipper-than-thou social caché. Kelleher trained as an artist at the California College of the Arts in Oakland, and has had a successful career as a faux finisher and color consultant in both San Francisco and Santa Fe. She still does $85/hour color consulting, and it keeps her busy. But her long-time love of furnishings and design led her to open Santa Fe Modern Home, where she could turn her ideas into reality. She employs two local woodworkers and two steelworkers, which avoids the hassles of shipping and allows for more custom work. The store also represents other local designers, and Kelleher in addition holds periodic shows for artists whose work she likes and wants to support. Santa Fe Modern Home carries furniture, including a brand new line of custom upholstered pieces, linens and bedding, tableware and dishes, lighting, rugs, and even jewelry handmade by two local artisans. Every item receives her almost obsessive scrutiny in the selection. "One of my favorite comments that I've heard said about the store is "everything in here is really well considered,' " Kelleher said. "I'll spend an hour deciding whether an $8 glass will fit in." The result reflects not just care and thought, but also a certain harmony, an agreeable meshing of lightand texture, surface and patina, hard and soft. It's inviting and comfortable, yet coherent. Kelleher simultaneously draws on the heritage of New Mexico craftsmanship, for example in the tinwork the store carries. Spanish colonial taste tended to the ornate. Her tin light fixtures and candelabra strip away the fuss, creating a more modern, lean and edgy style. She describes her vision as a hybrid, of organic/rustic merged with minimalist. "It's less trendy in terms of materials and colors, yet it has a definite urban sensibility," she said. It's also deeply sophisticated. "I love the idea of combining mid-century chairs with an old trastero and a Navajo rug thrown over the back of the sofa," she explained. Along with buying her furnishings, clients often ask her to double as their interior decorator.
Kelleher also strives hard to promote environmentally-friendly practices. For her own designs she likes to use wormy maple wood, which is highly sustainable. The rugs she carries are all Rugmark®-certified, meaning they use natural dyes and no child labor (you can even design your own rug). A steel-cube end table was fabricated from recycled steel scraps. In Santa Fe she exclusively represents Benjamin Forgey, whose designs exemplify the same principles of recycling. Forgey mixes galvanized steel and plexiglass with salvaged driftwood he collects from around the state to make sensational chairs, tables, mirrors and coatracks. The beaver-chewed ends of wood are sanded smooth, and the sun-bleached surfaces shine with an almost silvery patina. Overlapping scallops of weathered wood radiate out like feathers around his "Icarus" mirror, creating a wonderful, tactile awareness of the materials. An armchair fashioned from twisted, sinuous branches wrap around a plexiglass seat like a slick of frozen light suspended in space, superbly balancing movement and stillness.
For centuries, New Mexicans favored very limited furnishings and spartan interiors. The reasons were apparent: People were too poor to buy much; a rural lifestyle meant few free hours to spend crafting more than basic essentials; and it was hard to get here, meaning traders were not hauling much in the way of décor across the deserts and mountains. Kelleher has translated that simplicity into modern terms, while putting a fresh spin on tradition. Santa Fe Modern Home leaves you feeling renewed and inspired with her vision.

Cabin Fever
Mumblecore Heads Into The Woods Of The Horror Flick
|Jay And Mark Duplass
|Release Date:
Baghead is the first movie from the badly named but heavily hyped mumblecore movement to get picked up by an Indiewood distributor like Sony Pictures Classics. While mumblecore pioneer Andrew Bujalski has reaped much critical acclaim, he's had to distribute his two features himself. Thus, Baghead carries tremendous baggage. So far, it hasn't turned into a hit, but it's gotten wider release than any other mumblecore movie. And the writing/directing Duplass brothers are acutely aware of the position they're in: Baghead mocks the pretensions of indie filmmakers, while raising questions about their ethics.
So far, mumblecore movies such as Bujalski's Funny Ha Ha and Joe Swanberg's Hannah Takes the Stairs have concentrated on the minute and miniature. While the aesthetic has been criticized for focusing solely on middle-class white characters, its directors may simply be accurately describing a segregated, relatively isolated milieu. Nevertheless, mumblecore at its worst suggests a lack of ambition that's content merely to depict small corners of the world without ever showing curiosity about other aspects of American life. When a character in Aaron Katz's Quiet City says that he hasn't left the Brooklyn neighborhood of Park Slope in several weeks, you might wonder if he's speaking for Katz himself.
Baghead kicks off at a film festival, where the lame indie We Are Naked unspools. Its director, Jett Garner (playing himself), emerges for a Q&A session. The barrage of inane questions will be familiar to anyone who's attended such events. In the audience, a quartet of actors and aspiring writers watch, deciding to make a movie of their own. Matt (Ross Partridge) and Chad (Steve Zissis) are both enamored with Michelle (Greta Gerwig). The slightly older Catherine (Elise Muller) is infatuated with Matt. The four decide to get a cabin in the woods and settle down for a weekend of screenwriting. They come up with an idea about a serial killer who wears a bag over his head. Their script, however, appears to be coming to life: Baghead stalks their cabin.
Baghead could have been made in response to criticisms of mumblecore. While its cast doesn't include any people of color, it's far more ambitious than Hannah Takes the Stairs or Quiet City. In fact, it bites off more than it can chew, aiming to synthesize an indie-scene satire, a portrait of romantic manipulation, and a horror film.
A bit prematurely, mumblecore has been hailed as the second coming of John Cassavetes, Eric Rohmer, and Jean Eustache. Baghead recalls a more disreputable precursor, The Blair Witch Project. There was already a touch of Cassavetes in that movie, which emphasized profane shouts and endless slogs through a forest over more typical horror-movie tropes such as monsters and on-screen violence. At heart, Blair Witch pitted technology, exemplified by a trio of filmmakers, in a losing battle with tradition and nature. While Baghead copies some of its imagery, especially the woodland trek, it's even more concerned with the power of manipulation inherent in filmmaking. Baghead looks genuinely artless--needless to say, it was shot on digital video, usually a handheld and shaky camera. That lends a degree of reality to the characters' shenanigans: in its first half, you could almost believe you're watching a documentary.
The Duplass brothers are fascinated by several types of power games: the kind practiced by directors and that pursued by men and women trying to get laid. The latter are more convincing. For once, the Rohmer comparisons aren't far off. Like the French director, the Duplass brothers are concerned with the way lovers use language as a weapon. Their quartet of characters talk incessantly, but they're not very articulate. Baghead casts an insightful eye on the way their insecurities manifest themselves in the bedroom. The monster that Matt, Chad, Michelle, and Catherine have seemingly created out of thin air can be seen as a metaphor for their anxieties and bad faith toward each other.
It's difficult to explain what's ultimately so unsatisfying about Baghead without giving away its trick ending. Many recent horror movies have moved away from the stylized worlds of Dario Argento and John Carpenter's 1970s classics toward a video-based, quasi-documentary aesthetic. A genuinely DIY project, Baghead manages to duplicate some of the flaws of pseudo-edgy mediocrities such as Cloverfield and Diary of the Dead, relying on deliberately crude videography to give the narrative credence. The movie's more suggestive moments of dread are scarier than its blossoming into full-blown horror. Compared to the way directors push their actors' buttons and men and women mess around with each other's emotions, a serial killer seems almost benign.

Microsoft is reported to be working on its own smartphone design and working with Asian suppliers, in a bid to take plunge into smartphone market.
Wall Street Journal cited unnamed officials at some of Microsoft's parts suppliers who said the company is testing a smartphone design but it is not sure whether the company will go for mass production of a product.
According to the reports, company is testing a smartphone with a screen size between 4 and 5 inches.
If the company brings in a smartphone into market, it will be in the league of companies like Apple who design smartphones and computers while developing software to run them.
Earlier this year, Microsoft had announced Surface, a new line of tablet PCs that are powered by company's Windows 8 operating system making its first foray into computer manufacturing since the 80s.
The company has also released the new Windows Phone 8 operating system, which is the latest version of the firm's smartphone OS, to take on Apple's iOS and Google's Android.
Earlier reports suggested that the new smartphone will compete against Apple's iPhone 5 and Samsung's Galaxy S III and other phones operating on its own Windows platform.

Zend predicts Java and PHP oneness
Lately, Zend Technologies has worked to put PHP in the enterprise by optimizing its tools for Oracle and IBM databases and middleware. Today, Zend makes its latest move on the enterprise, by throwing open early code for an up-coming PHP suite based on Eclipse. Zend thinks this will let it integrate with other Eclipse-based Java …
Anything but that...
I'll take my Java and my PHP separately, please. Java is OK for the enterprise, but it sucks for smaller, "quick and dirty" projects on a tight budget. PHP is great for smaller projects but sucks for enterprise. Putting the two together is like turning my hammer into a screwdriver.
Personally, I enjoy doing a bit of Java at work and coming home to a loving PHP box in the evening...The mistress isn't as fun when she's the wife.
Since Zend Studio was already written in Java and slower than molasses in the North Pole, its users will undoubtably feel comfortable moving to the slower than tree sap in the North Pole Eclipse platform. But for the rest of us that don't want to take coffee breaks while eclipse builds our workspaces, lets hope the really great PHP tools (Komodo, Maguma et al) will stay on top.
Could zend be more wrong?
As a professional PHP developer I seriously think Zend is heading in the wrong direction with its integration, frameworks and IDE's - As Jared pointed out PHP is great for fast-flexible (quick and dirty) web development, Zend's catalog of tools do nothing but contradict this.
I've recently been evaluating Zend IDE as our current Nusphere subscription is up for renewal and I can honestly say their IDE is a slow piece of crap and hasn't had a decent upgrade for a lont time - the Zend functionality is surpassed by the likes of Nusphere which is 20x faster, has superior functionality, gets regular updates and best of all you get direct support from the developers.- I think we'll be staying put.
And no I'm not Anti-Zend, I think their efforts need to be applauded, without them I'd still be programming Java, but I do think they need to sit up and take notice.

It has all come down to this. The deceptions and half-truths, the assassinations and betrayals, the bloody sieges that have left such deep scars upon the land -- all have led here, to a terrifying spectacle that no one anticipated, that few even thought possible. The future of the Forelands and the very survival of the Eandi courts will be decided by a war between Weavers.
Tavis of Curgh, an Eandi prince, has come through torture and exile and has managed to kill the assassin who murdered the the princess to whom he was pledged. But the young girl's death, plotted by Qirsi conspirators who seek to overthrow the courts and take command of all the seven realms, has left the kingdom of Eibithar divided and weakened. Joined by Grinsa jal Arriet, a Qirsi Weaver -- a sorcerer who can bind the magic of many into a single weapon -- Tavis has joined the king's army as it marches north to stave off an invasion. All the land is girding for war.
This war, however, is a diversion. In the Braedon Empire, another Weaver -- Dusaan jal Kania --has gathered a vast army of Qirsi renegades that he now leads by sea to the shores of Eibithar. Moreover, his influence stretches far beyond Braedon, spanning the length and breadth of the Forelands. Even as the Eandi armies ride to meet this challenge, they harbor in their ranks Qirsi ministers who have secretly pledged themselves to the Weaver's dark cause.
But Tavis, Grinsa, and their allies have hidden advantages as well. Keziah ja Dafydd, Grinsa's beautiful sister, who is also minister to the king of Eibithar, has infiltrated the Weaver's movement. Now, as war approaches, she and Grinsa move against their enemy, hoping against hope that they can find some way to thwart Dusaan's plans and stand against the overwhelming force he commands.
The time for preparations has come to an end. Two armies stand ready to do battle and the fate of all the land hangs in the balance. A war is coming. A war between Weavers. The Forelands will never be the same.
Weavers of War is the fifth and final volume of Winds of the Forelands, which also includes the critically acclaimed opening volumes, Rules of Ascension, Seeds of Betrayal, Bonds of Vengeance, and Shapers of Darkness.
Praise for Weavers of War, book V of Winds of the Forelands
"Full of magic and intrigue, Weavers of War: Book Five of Winds of the Forelands, the final volume in David B. Coe's epic fantasy series, will keep fans turning the pages to the exciting climax." -- Publisher's Weekly

Dear Austin,
You were a light to your family and to so many people who knew you-even to thousands of people in the world who didn't know you. Your five years of life have made such a dynamic impact on lives everywhere. As we reflect on your short life of five years, nine months, and ten days, you have made us so proud. We were amazed to see how you matured in the Lord at a very young age. As parents, we loved you and taught you to love Jesus. At the same time, you were teaching us that being parents of a little boy like you, Austin, was the greatest gift that we could ever obtain in life-definitely a gift from God. We experienced love for you beyond what any words could ever express; in turn, you loved us back. Times we spent laughing and playing will always be remembered. What a blessing we will share, our little man, when we can hold you in our arms in Heaven-together forever. We will meet you at Heaven's open gates. What a day that will be!
We love you so much,
Mama and Daddy
Written February 2001, six months prior to Austin's birth:
I prayed for God to keep Austin and protect him even before he was born.
How Very Often I Have Dreamed of You
How very often I have dreamed of you,
To hold you in my arms,
To kiss you on your cheek,
And to comfort all day long.
How very often I have dreamed of you,
A world of perfect bliss,
To hold your tiny hand in mine
And give a little kiss.
How very often I have dreamed of you
My little boy or girl
With silky black hair like Daddy's
Or like Mama's with reddish curls.
How very often I have dreamed of you.
Please, God, keep my baby safe.
I can't wait to hold you in my arms
And gaze into your face.
Renee Haley
The Austin Haley Story--A Family Confronting Unthinkable Tragedy
Just then I heard my father say, "I've got Austin here in the back of the Polaris."
I'm trembling as though an earthquake is taking over my body…everything is happening in slow motion.
At any moment I'm going to break—there's no doubt about it. My husband hears my screams; he runs toward me. Putting a hand on each of my shoulders, he asks, "What? What happened?"
Out of breath, I am barely able to speak. "Someone shot Austin while he was at the pond!"
On what should have been a beautiful August evening, Jack and Renee Haley were faced with one of the most devastating and senseless tragedies that anyone could imagine. An accidental shooting by a police officer had resulted in the death of their five-year-old son, Austin.
The Haley's and their family and friends struggled with the overwhelming grief. Ultimately, placing their faith in God has sustained them through the intense despair of losing a child. Despite the waves of grief, they never forgot the lesson Austin taught them throughout his short life: God delivers his children through all circumstances.
The Austin Haley Story will encourage anyone facing an unimaginable tragedy. It will bring comfort and strength to those who are at the lowest point in their life.
Jack and Renee Haley reside in Noble, Oklahoma, with their two children and extended family. After the loss of their son was broadcasted throughout the United States, they developed a passion in uplifting and encouraging others who have also experienced the heartache of losing a child.

Though not as gory as The Sad Tale Of the Brothers Grossbart, The Enterprise of Death is no less…meaty. Meaty in that there are a lot of themes to chew on, figuratively speaking. Slavery in the late medieval period, European-Moorish relations, the Black Plague and Inquisition, as well as the lesbian perspective in said era. Meaty too, in that necromancy, witchery and even cannibalism serve a large steaming portion of the story as well. Jesse Bullington, where he succeeds in delivering a pure, linear havoc in Bros. Grossbart, changes pace by delivering a more measured and thoughtful sojourn from the view of the quintessential medieval outcast. Peppered, it must be said, with mangled corpses aplenty.
What Bullington does really well is his portrayal of the lower classed every-witch in their milieu. Awa, Moorish slave to human and necromancer alike is an interesting lead protagonist. Her tale is more of survival than it contains full hero quality or development. Her learned skills in necromancy are portrayed more as a curse than an actual benefit, which gives the stereotype of witchery a refreshing take. Awa is quiet and demure, even when raising the dead at her bidding; however, there's not much depth to her character other than being determined to resolve her life or death dilemma, coerced by her devious tutor.
With what Awa lacks in depth the supporting characters deliver, as Bullington conjures a curious group of comrades surrounding Awa. The artist and reluctant mercenary Manuel symbolizes the of plight of the starving artist forced to kill for his coal sketches. The giantess Monique, who wants nothing more than to manage her own clean and upstanding brothel, however dirty her own desires may be. And the mercurial Dr. Paracelsus, ever seeking to understand and develop scientific thought, is cleverly exposed in earning his title as the Devil's Doctor. It an odd assemblage but one that gives quite a lot of detail, humor, and food for thought of the medieval era.
The Enterprise of Death is an interesting commentary on whether it is better, or perhaps just more fun, to struggle with life or succumb to that of the undead. The story is a fun romp across medieval Europe, concerning itself with issues still faced today like witch-hunts, war and disease, finding love, and whether cooked human really tastes like pork. It's an engaging and smart story.

County Executive Leopold Announces Student Model Government Winners
Teens will get a close look at elected office and civil service
Annapolis (December 29, 2008) - County Executive John R. Leopold announced today the names of the 35 students who will participate in next month's 2009 Student Model Government program next month, in which teens get a chance to debate policy and learn the responsibilities of elected officials as well as department heads.
The winners include Maya Mundell of Northeast High School, who will shadow County Executive Leopold, and Michelle Aylor of Southern High School, who will shadow County Council Chairman Ed Reilly.
"Civics is a very important part of high school studies, and this program gives students the opportunity to walk in the shoes of the people who make decisions every day," County Executive Leopold said. "Hopefully, they will gain a taste for public service that will guide their college careers."
The students will attend a County Government Orientation on Wednesday, January 28, 2009, at the Arundel Center, followed by individual dates where they will shadow an elected or appointed official. Students will then participate in a mock County Council Hearing on Tuesday, February 17, 2009.
Students were selected based on their community service and essays describing what they would seek to accomplish as County Executive or Councilman.>> List of Winners

A man in China has divorced and sued his wife for being ugly. He was awarded $120,000 in the lawsuit.
Planet Ivy is reporting that Jian Feng married his wife and was completely happy with her, until the couple gave birth to their first child.
Feng believed his baby to be very ugly, and he thought it bared no resemblance to him or his wife. Feng immediately suspected his wife had an affair.
But what really happened is that his wife has spent nearly $100,000 on intense plastic surgery, severely changing the way she looked, before she met Feng.
Upset by this, Feng filed for divorce and sued his wife claiming she married him under false pretenses.
Proving yet again, that you can't judge a book by its cover.

After receiving critics from some celebrities for snubbing Farrah Fawcett from the "In Memoriam" tribute, the Academy has spoken up and offered their explanation. Speaking on behalf of the show bosses, Oscars executive director Bruce Davis claims it is impossible to include every star who died last year in the montage.
"It is the single most troubling element of the Oscar show every year," Davis states, defending their decision. "Because more people die each year than can possibly be included in that segment. You are dropping people who the public knows. It's just not comfortable."
Soon after seeing Fawcett excluded from the Oscars montage during the 2010 Academy Awards on Sunday, March 7, her fellow celebrities went online to express their shock. "And where was Farrah Fawcett? She should have been included," Jane Fonda tweeted, while film critic Roger Ebert wrote, "No Farrah Fawcett in the memorial tribute? Major fail."
Moreover, Fawcett's actor lover Ryan O'Neal said he cannot understand why the Academy omitted her from the segment, saying "I'm just as confused as everyone about it. They have to explain it, I can't." He even revealed his plan to write a letter to the Academy to utter his disappointment about her omission, hoping "Maybe next year they'll slip her in!"
