Unruly Women: The Politics of Confinement and Resistance
Seven Stories Press, 2011 - Social Science - 339 pages
Winner of the VanCity Book Prize, Unruly Women: The Politics of Confinement & Resistance is the seminal book about women's imprisonment that helped spark examinations around the world into the special circumstances women face in prison, as well as the sex and gender crimes that get them there. Most women who are incarcerated do not pose a danger to society but transgress patriarchal, capitalist norms that seek to control their bodies and choices, as seen in the case of prostitution and prosecutions of pregnant women for risky behaviors. Further, the majority of women who enter the criminal justice system have been victims of violence, which raises questions about the continuum from victimization to criminalization. Unruly Women explores patterns of female crimes and punishments, from the witch hunts to the present; institutionalized violence and sexual abuse against incarcerated women; women loving women in prison; motherhood inside prison; battered woman syndrome; Hollywood's formulaic women-in-prison films; political education in prisons; and acts of resistance, inside and out. Karlene Faith challenges misconceptions of "deviant" women, and celebrates the unruly woman: the unmanageable woman who claims her own body, and who cannot be silenced. As the "drug war" wages on, riddled with excessive and inequitable prison sentences; the incarcerated population skyrockets toward 2.5 million (up from less than 200,000 nationwide in 1970); and private prisons burgeon around the coasts, now is a critical moment to educate ourselves about what is at stake with our prison system. Faith's incisive work causes us to question the usefulness of the forced confinement and surveillance of mostly nonviolent people.

I don't think you are being
I don't think you are being realistic here. In your op you said:
"Given that all the source code for Bitcoin is available and completely open to the public, there is aboslutely no excuse for this"
You and I both know the vast majority are not going to learn code and should not have to. Most do not have the time either. Sure I could learn code and I did a little when I was in school but have pretty much forgotten it over the years. Am I going to learn it now hell no.
You are saying there is no excuse for the misinformation because people could learn code and find out for themselves, that is unrealistic. You'd be better off pointing to the fact that no programmer has come out and said hey Bitcoin has a possible backdoor.
Chastising folks just because they do not want to take the time to become programmers just to vet bitcoin is not going to do the trick IMO.

A smiling crowd of stylists gathers around a chair, watching as a special guest deftly weaves a woman's hair into a type of braid they've never seen. He lets them pick up where he leaves off, showing them how to part and plait with encouraging guidance. This is not an impromptu sleepover, but a school lesson?Redhouse Salon prioritizes up-to-date education with several events and classes for its staff. In fact, continuing-education milestones are factored in with creativity to determine an employee's rank on the team. By staying abreast of current trends and innovative looks, they broaden their repertoire beyond simple cuts and color applications. Their services cover highlights, stress-reducing scalp massages, and retexturing treatments from the popular perms and Brazilian blowouts to more obscure japanese straightening techniques.
The salon's aestheticians also administer pore-pampering facials. Having trained at the Rep?chage institute in New Jersey, they nourish skin with marine ingredients such as seaweed and cleansing slaps from a fish's tail. Elsewhere, nail technicians conclude mani-pedis with swipes of OPI polish and CND Shellac, and massage therapists channel the scents of aromatherapy and the focused pressure of deep-tissue work to ease aches. Clients who hope to carry pieces of their visits home with them can browse shelves of retail products?including formulas from Bumble and bumble, Aveda, and M.D. Skin Care?all of which have been tested and approved by the staff.
Vixen Aesthetics arose from a passion for healing people and caring for skin. Medical director Dr. Jerry Greib developed an interest in aesthetics while treating patients in the emergency room. Leann Griffin, a registered nurse and the CEO of Vixen, fueled her passion for skin rejuvenation after caring for patients in the critical-care and burn-intensive-care units. Together, these two helm a staff that beautifies clients with medical and nonmedical aesthetic procedures. Wrinkles relax after injections of Botox or Dysport, and facial fillers such as Artefill, Restylane, and Juvéderm work to restore fullness. The staff rejuvenates complexions with exfoliating microdermabrasions as well as more advanced treatments, such as carboxytherapy—the practice of injecting small amounts of carbon dioxide into the skin to improve the appearance of stretch marks, scars, and lingering marker mustaches. With the assistance of versatile laser systems, they can also remove hair, resurface skin, remove tattoos, and eradicate nail fungus.
Ria Schodowski always knew she wanted to help people, but it wasn't until she left nursing school and headed to Singapore to care for her ailing mother that she realized massage was how she wanted to do it. During this time, Ria befriended her mother's massage therapist and watched as his treatment helped her mother's aneurysm to shrink. This dramatic healing convinced Ria. Upon her return to the United States, she became certified in reflexology and massage therapy and opened Ria's Touch.
Today, Ria uses her skills to relieve her clients' aching joints, increase their flexibility, and improve their sleep with five massage styles. Her repertoire includes pregnancy, sports, and deep-tissue massage. To further encourage physical well-being, Ria also performs nail, waxing, and facial services furnished with her own line of lotions, which are made with all-natural ingredients and free from preservatives. For toxin-free home care, clients can purchase her organic lotions and shower-therapy bath tablets, which work to relax muscles, soothe the skin, and help wash hard-to-reach spots on the back.
In 1975, newlyweds Pete and Laura Wakeman solidified their marriage by hiking the entire north-south length of Montana. They?d traveled a long way from Cornell University, where they discovered a mutual talent for baking bread that helped pay their tuition. Their passion stuck with them after graduation, prompting them to stay in Montana and establish Great Harvest Bread, their first bakery. Since then, the small bakery has blossomed into a national franchise with 200 locations across the United States and several pending locations on the United States? half of the moon. Each of Great Harvest Bread?s locations operates as an independent bakery, with its kitchen run and recipes devised by an independent owner. Many of these bakeries craft their menu around the company?s focus on whole-wheat bread, using ingredients such as wheat harvested from independent farms, fresh-milled whole-grain flour, and unbleached white flour. They also inundate loaves with berries, nuts, cheeses, and herbs and create their own desserts.
The experienced instructors at Body Experience Fitness Studio view closeness as a key ingredient to health. Their group studio accommodates a maximum of 18 students, allowing enough space for dynamic Zumba steps and reaching stretches while simultaneously preserving an air of intimacy. During classes, they foster the familiar atmosphere by giving personalized directions—yoga poses might shift to include challenging poses for advanced yogis or a supportive chair assist for beginners, and the tension of resistance bands can rise if pupils accidentally use pantyhose instead of sanctioned resistance bands.
Their curriculum includes lessons in varied fields, from boot-camp drills to Hatha sequences, and their histories are just as diverse. For example, trainer Shelly Haag entered the fitness industry to combat her fibromyalgia, and registered yoga teacher Heidi Rohrbeck simply seeks to augment the happiness of others. However, the staff shares the goal of holistic health improvement, regardless of age, body type, and limitations.
Pump It Up's indoor inflatable arenas launch socked striplings into the air with a plethora of kid-friendly bounce pads. Staffers supervise fun-filled visits, during which adult counterparts leap around with their kids through gargantuan bounce houses, skip down air-filled slides, and slither like snakes covered in bacon grease through an inflated obstacle course.
The colorful venue also hosts custom birthday parties and private team parties, each themed to please the partygoers in question. These soirees immerse children in a schedule of interactive activities while melting off youthful energy faster than ice cubes thrown into a running DVD player. The birthday boy or girl even gets to blow out the candles on their cake seated in their blow-up throne. Relying on the staffers' vigilant, watchful eyes, guardians can rest assured that their charges will stay safe, and each piece of the inflatable playground is held to the floor and one to the ceiling by a complex series of anchors installed according to strict safety standards.

Turkey is on the front line of the ongoing wars in Iraq and Syria. The security environment is volatile. Terrorists have been active in Turkey before and ISIL poses an extra threat to the region. However, the Gallipoli peninsular is far from Turkey's borders with Iraq and Syria. (more)

New Bra
Monday, Jan, 27 2014
A Japanese lingerie maker has built a new kind of bra that only becomes unhooked if the person trying to take it off of you is truly your love. There's a heart rate monitor that's built into the bra and syncs with an app on your phone and monitors your heart rate over time.
Apparently there's a special equation for how your heart rate rises when you're in love. A built-in sensor reads the woman's heart-rate signal and sends it to a special app by Bluetooth for analysis. the app then calculates the True Love Rate based on changes in the heart rate over time. When the True Love Rate exceeds a certain value, the bra hook is opened automatically.

|LSU-Auburn offers stout defenses, wild finishes
|Written by Admin
|Thursday, 18 September 2008 12:53
If those aren't strong enough selling points for Saturday night's clash between SEC West rivals No. 10 Auburn and No. 6 LSU, here's another: Tommy Tuberville really doesn't think you should miss it.
``If you like defense, watch this game,'' the Auburn coach said. ``If you like athletic ability, watch this game. If you like excitement, watch this game. It usually comes down to one or two plays.
``It's an unbelievable scenario. And usually the game means something.''
This one certainly does. Plus it offers speedy defenses, quarterback controversies and running backs galore. Throw in a defending national champion and this divisional squabble does seem like a pretty enticing follow-up to last weekend's Southern California-Ohio State game, if not as L.A. chic.
believe it? Here's Tuberville again.
``It's one of the best college football games of the last 10 years, there's no doubt about that,'' he said. ``For some reason a lot of these other games get built up, but there's not been a better one year in and year out than the LSU-Auburn game.''
Either Auburn (3-0, 1-0 SEC) or LSU (2-0, 0-0) has represented the West in the SEC championship game six of the last eight seasons. They join Alabama as division teams ranked in the Top 10.
But for one end-of-game, gutsy touchdown pass from Matt Flynn to Demetrius Byrd in last year's 30-24 win, LSU wouldn't have won the SEC West much less the national title. Coach Les Miles passed on a field goal attempt that would have won the game even with too little time on the clock to be certain of another play.
If it failed, Auburn would have gone to the league title game instead. Tuberville called it ``the play of the year'' this week.
Auburn preserved its perfect 2004 season with a 10-9 win on a TD pass from Jason Campbell to Courtney Taylor with just over a minute to play. LSU, by the way, had missed its extra point. So did Auburn's John Vaughn, but he got a second try because of an LSU personal foul.
ad this weekend.
``To me, Auburn is our biggest rival,'' LSU guard Herman Johnson said. ``It's been like that since I've been here. Since I've been here, we have never beaten them on the road. Last year, I circled the Auburn game on my schedule. This is my senior year. I want to beat them. I want it to be special.
``You can find a number of teams on the schedule you want to beat. For other players, it may be another team. For me, I really want to beat Auburn.''
LSU coach Les Miles stops short of placing the Auburn rivalry above other SEC opponents, taking a low-key approach unlike Tuberville. Then he gives a pretty apt description of it when asked to define what makes a good college football rivalry.
``Tradition. Historic matchups. Certainly very competitive games and games that have real significant conference implications,'' Miles said. ``At the end of the year, the winner of that game stands atop the conference or atop the West. Obviously this game and many other teams that we play in this conference would be very capable of being called rivals.''
Few of them have waged the kind of defensive struggles sprinkled in this one. LSU has managed just 19 points combined in its last three visits to Jordan-Hare Stadium. These teams have stout defenses and not entirely stable quarterback situations. Both have played two quarterbacks.
les is 7-3 at LSU against Top 10 teams. Auburn and Tuberville have fared even better against that kind of competition, winning nine of their last 12 and six in a row at home.
``This is what I came to Auburn for,'' Auburn defensive end Antonio Coleman said. ``This is what I wake up for, these types of games. I love challenges. We'll see who can come out and win at the end.''
Like Tuberville, Coleman isn't downplaying the stakes. He knows how important this game has been in the West race in recent seasons. The latest meeting proved that.
``I've been thinking about that since last year,'' Coleman said. ``That's the key every year. If you beat LSU, you are in the driver's seat getting to the SEC Championship and, hopefully, the national championship. That's the key. If we want to go to those places, we have to come out and do our job Saturday.''
Auburn cornerback Jerraud Powers is also taking his cue from his head coach.
His prediction: ``This is going to be another one that's going to go down to the wire.''

Of course we want perfection. We want the best picture, best job, best hair.
But perfection is when you see his crooked teeth beyond the gap of his smile. It's the scar on your arm from where you fell out of a tree at age eight. The way you hold your fork the wrong way and the phobia you've hid for so long. It's the way your moms voice echoes through the house and your family bickers on Christmas morning. It's the times someone stutters amongst excitement and the times you fall asleep, mid-sentence, on the phone. It's the way you snore in your sleep when you dream of perfection. But what society won't tell you, is that perfection is imperfection and imperfection is perfect.

A dour management team on the Cummins (CMI +2.6%) earnings call today wasn't enough to shake the bulls. Full year North American revenue growth of 9% sounds good, but the CEO was quick to point out +40% Y/Y in Q1 was followed by -8% Y/Y in Q3 and Q4. In China, inventory levels are so high, even a big spring selling season may not be enough to clear them. Mining? "The weakest of any major end market we serve ... revenues could decline by as much as 25% for the full year."

I think I read in Barrons a few years back that Cummings had noticed that a slowdown in their sales often was a leading indicator of global recessions. Not the case here, due to the weakness in mining from what was likely the peak of that market, but still a worrying signal. I'll try to find a link.
It was Caterpillar, not Cummings, and it was in Fortune, not Barrons. I was close, in that both begin with C, and both are companies?? Sorry guys, but heres the link:
This is one of the reasons why I got out of CAT. Something is a miss in China and at least CMI is being honest. To me this is what I would have expected CAT to say but instead are doing investigations into accounting frauds. I understand CAT but believe they are not telling (or not understanding) what's happening in China.

Eduardo Alcala - Leather bags
"As far as inspiration is concerned, I have to admit that many times it's the leather itself that suggests the bag's shape. Designs depend on the quality of the leather, on the shapes or objects I see around, on current trends… and they even depend on the mood I'm in!"
"One day I received a telegram with some money in it, inviting me to go to the state of Jalisco to work, and I accepted. After a week, the workshop owner approached me and asked if I knew how to make belts, to which I replied yes. He told me to leave what I was doing and took me to another part of the workshop, where I made belts. Soon I was promoted to master, given my own working table, and I coordinated a team. I was given the freedom to create my own designs.
"One day my wife asked me to make her a coin purse, and when the people at the workshop saw what I had done, they liked it and asked if could do it in a larger size. That's how I began making bags. Sometimes they would bring me some samples to replicate, but most of the time I worked on my own designs.
"As time passed by I became workshop manager, and I developed a good working and personal relationship with the owner, Max. We even became compadres. After a while things changed and problems arose, so I decided to set up my own workshop, where I specialize in belts and bags.
"As far as inspiration is concerned, I have to admit that many times it's the leather itself that suggests the bag's shape. Designs depend on the quality of the leather, on the shapes or objects I see around, on current trends… and they even depend on the mood I'm in!
"Amongst the challenges I have had to face, I am proud to say that I have been able to support my family. Even though this is a beautiful profession and the results are equally beautiful, it is also a difficult profession because sometimes people would rather buy from intermediaries than directly from the person who made the item. This unfortunately affects the artisan, because we earn a lot less than we should.
"My designs are filled with Mexican sentiment, because in Mexico we do not only revere death (Day of the Dead celebrations), we also revere life. This is reflected in the work of artisans who infuse their products with life.
"I would like to see my type of work preserved, and I also want to show it to the whole wide world. It would give a great sense of satisfaction to know that my work is recognized and admired throughout the world. It would even be better if my work was recognized in my Mexico.
"I would like to assure customers that my products are entirely crafted by hand, with quality materials, which makes each piece a work of art. Since I make each piece by hand from leather, there can be slight imperfections, which should not be regarded as defects, but rather as a testimony to the authenticity of the material and the handcrafted process."
