Why Runway Models Are Almost Always White
Sunday, February 17, 2013

Thursday, November 15, 2012

Micropolis: NYC Street Workout Goes Global

Thursday, May 24, 2012

Pro-Muslim Groups and Critics Mount a 'Propaganda War' (VIDEO)
Wednesday, April 06, 2011

Manhattan Street Grid System Turns 200
Tuesday, March 22, 2011
Today marks the bicentennial of the Manhattan street grid system, a latice-work of streets created during a time when the city's population exploded and the streets needed to be ordered in a "regular way," according to NYU professor and curator of an upcoming museum exhibit, Hilary Ballon.
A Street Artist Interprets Gadhafi With a Nod to Obama
Monday, March 21, 2011
The last time world affairs found their way into artist Samuel Mark's work, bed bugs were taking over the city. Mark channeled the collective panic of New Yorkers into a series of works that depicted the critters swarming over mattresses, sofas and other discarded furniture. The series earned the street artist instant notoriety and widespread media coverage.
Look | An Illustrator Takes on All the City's Buildings
Friday, March 18, 2011
For a certain segment of the population, the promise to draw every building in town may sound familiar, not unlike Sufjan Stevens' initially audacious, then outlandish and ultimately forgotten bid to make an album about all 50 states (final count: two states).

Snapshot | Jackson Heights: He Loves Allah
Friday, February 25, 2011

Cell Phone Service in the Subways: Be Very Afraid
Monday, February 14, 2011
Multiply the volubility of this guy by 20, maybe 50 on a crowded day, when the subways are completely wired and everyone's got his or her phones out. Now imagine your normally placid commute being disrupted, daily, by the sound of TMI.
Marty Markowitz Eating. And Eating.
Thursday, February 10, 2011
There is no New York City public official better suited to the spectacle of food -- whom the citizenry wants to see eating -- than Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz.
This is not simply an issue of body type, although that certainly factors in. The fact is, Marty exudes a certain jocularity, a game-ness that's very old-school. Have a baby that needs to be held? Give it to Marty! Have a catchphrase that bears repeating, such as "Fuhgeddaboutit!"? Marty'll say it!
Innocent Graffiti: Jennifer Aniston's Moustache
Thursday, February 10, 2011
Street art isn't what it used to be. And for a lot of New Yorkers, that's probably a good thing. Gone are the days when entire subway trains were coated in spray paint.
That isn't to say that street art is irrelevant.
Check out "Exit Through the Gift Shop," the documentary that at once celebrates and hilariously sends up the significance (and the very definition) of street art. The movie, directed by the ever-mysterious artist Banksy, is up for an Oscar this year.
So, who are the newest street artists making their mark in (and on) the city?
One of them has been penning "moustache" on the upper lips of various actresses, at least their two-dimensional selves (Reese's moustache here). The penmanship isn't anything to write home about, but still, there's a certain Gallic charm to the enterprise, and an impishness. These days, it's striking just how innocent and inoffensive so much subway graffiti is. Sure, you get the predictable assortment of four-letter words and body parts and all-around disfigurement. But not all that often. To a much greater extent subway posters seem to have been defaced by really happy, well-adjusted people. Whatever became of urban rage?

Old Town Market is small in size and BIG in caring about the products they sell. They have the organics & the local produced options that we all should appreciate & care about. They also prepare food that is both good for us & tastes great.
They have vegan options on their deli menu. Freshly prepared soups and sandwiches were very good. Grocery items available were organic and gluten free.
We needed some drinks and stopped here. The place is very organic and somewhat expensive. It seems to be very "health" oriented not a place for the usual grocery items.
The sandwiches and sides were very good, and they provide nice outdoor tables for eating. Lots of healthy and not so healthy options from which to choose, except they had nothing to drink that was sugar-free or suitable for someone with diabetes or watching sugar consumption. Not even sparkling water. Otherwise, a very good option for take out food.
They have very recently remodeled the deli and created better seating. You won't find a better sandwich or juice counter in town. The sandwiches are huge and unique. The market is pretty good too but the deli is great!
This small little store has a cooler of prepared food to go ,for picnics, a deli for preparing sandwiches to order, vitamins and supplements, a large offering of organic and gluten free bread, cookies and staples, fresh organic vegetables, and daily specials. Our sandwiches were piled high with organic meat, and perfectly prepared...they were delicious! They have an organic soup...
This is an Organic food market and deli. The store si just off highway 160 in the lower Pagosa Springs area. It is clean with friendly service, and a fair variety of freshly made items.
Friendly good feeling healthy stop. Good selections and fresh organic yumminess to enjoy for all. Surprisingly great for a small market. Do yourself a favor and enjoy some goodness from here.
I love the variety - from healthy veggie and fruit smoothies, to homemade soups and sandwiches, to take home curried chicken salad not to mention organic grocery store.
I am on a very restrictive diet and they have the best organic and gluten free items. Prices are a bit high but, it's always expensive to eat health food. Will always shop there when back in PS.

Jay Cutler
Penalties, Turnovers Doom 49ers, Spoil Opening Of Levi's Stadium
It's hard to win when you play like the 49ers did Sunday Night. When you get called for 13 penalties and commit 4 turnovers its hard to win in the NFL. They still outplayed Chicago and had a chance late to win, but fell short.
Bears Spoil 49ers Home Opener With 28-20 Win
Jay Cutler passed for three fourth-quarter touchdowns after much of Chicago's starting defense went down, and the Bears beat the San Francisco 49ers 28-20 Sunday night to spoil their Levi's Stadium debut.
49ers Offense Needs More Consistency For Home Opener Against Bears
The San Francisco 49ers won their first game of the 2014 season, but they didn't generate enough offense consistently on their own. Gifted four turnovers by the Dallas Cowboys, the 49ers didn't score at all in the second half of the game. They'll need to make sure they create their own opportunities in Week Two against the Chicago Bears at the Levi's Stadium opener.
49ers Will Face Similar Test From Week 1 As Bears Come To Town
The first NFL regular season game played at Levi Stadium has the San Francisco 49ers hosting the Chicago Bears. On paper, Chicago is very similar to San Francisco's week 1 opponent the Dallas Cowboys.

A new group in Harrisonburg is taking on the task of watching the watchers. Today they held their kick off meeting at Broad St Mennonite Church.Members say that the group was formed in response to reports of police harassment particular in Weed and Seed Communities. There was also guest speaker from a Cop Watch chapter in DC. "It is a strategy not a solution but definitely if people assert their rights towards that power structure it will work," says Mark Bowen. The group expects to begin patrolling the streets in the very near future.

First Lady Talks LGBT Youth: "We're Here for Our Kids"
September 25, 2012 by HRC staff
Post submitted by Dan Rafter, Former HRC Associate Director of Communications
First Lady Michelle Obama recently appeared on 'Access Hollywood' and reflected on the changes she's noticed over the past four years. After highlighting the president's historic support for marriage equality and the implementation of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" repeal, the First Lady spoke about the positive message these advancements send to youth:
...I'm probably more hopeful than I've ever been because I can see the changes and I can see it in our kids. I get to see so many great signs of this country's growth. Kids who now feel like, for the first time, if they're gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, that they feel like they have a place….One kid came up to me yesterday on the photo line and he said, I would have committed suicide if it wasn't for what your husband did.
Check out the video:
Michelle Obama is a steadfast supporter for equality who has always had an eye towards improving the lives of our nation's youth. At the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte earlier this month, Obama delivered a rousing speech that including mentioning the dignity and respect same-sex couples seeking to marry deserved.

Alpine Unification and the Grossmont District School Board Elections
From Dick Hoy - Vice President, Grossmont Union High School board of Trustees
The primary responsibility of school board trustees is to ensure a quality education for all students in their district. In order to meet that goal they must see to the fiscal wellbeing of the district's annual operating budget as well as the proper utilization of bond funds. Unfortunately the current election and the potential unification of Alpine threaten the financial stability of the Grossmont district as well as the quality of education for all its students.
Bond Proposition U, passed in 2008, called for the building an 800 student high school in Alpine contingent upon the enrollment at the 9 comprehensive and 2 charter high schools being at the 2008 level when bids were let for the actual construction of the high school. Between 2008-11, the purchase of a site was completed, permits were obtained, and school designs were prepared. During that time enrollment was at or above the trigger number, but starting in 2012 declining enrollment hit the district hard. Since construction bids had not been issued yet, the school was put on hold per the bond language. Currently the district is over 2,000 students below the 2008 level. Do you build a new high school when you have lost the equivalent of a high school?
The Alpine Union School District is also declining in enrollment at an alarming rate. Today, Alpine can barely financially support its existing elementary schools. Its district finances are in shambles. This year's fix is to reduce staff pay, decrease benefits, and shorten the school year for students. Only 6 months ago, Alpine experienced the first San Diego County teacher strike in 18 years. Can Alpine be trusted to build and staff a high school and meet increased operating expenses?
Education Code 35560 provides that a new Alpine Unified School District would be entitled the land purchased for the school, worth about $23 million, and less than $6 million in cash. The proponents of Alpine unification, however, want the Grossmont district to handover the land and $70 million in cash so that they can build a high school. They claim that, unless they get the entire amount, unification will be futile. Where would that amount come from? If it came from the yearly operating budget, the Grossmont District would go bankrupt. If it came from bond funds it would not only circumvent Grossmont District voter approved bond language requiring a minimum enrollment, but would be far more money than was ever discussed for building the Alpine school during the 8 years that I have been on the board. A third option, a combination of general funds and bond funds just compounds the problem for the 95% of the students who would remain in the Grossmont District.
What makes the unification proposal even worse is that its supporters want the unification election to include only Alpine residents. The taxpayers of the entire district will be affected by unification. Millions of dollars could be transferred to a new Alpine district and taxpayers throughout the Grossmont district will be on the hook for the bond payback for many years to come. Shouldn't all the district voters be given the right to vote on unification? I certainly believe so.
Now we come to the current board elections.
Two candidates are siding with Alpine unification proponents and their effort to get some $70 million from district taxpayers while disenfranchising 95% of the voters.
Three candidates, Rob Shield, Jim Kelly, and Gary Woods want to protect the best interests of the Grossmont District and the 95% of the voters who reside outside of Alpine. They want all district voters to weigh in on unification. They care about the education of all students. They want to protect Grossmont, Valhalla, El Cajon Valley, Helix, West Hills, El Capitan, Santana, Steele Canyon, Granite Hills, Monte Vista and Mount Miguel high schools from the financial disruption that a unification settlement beyond that provided in the Ed. Code would cause. I believe the choice is clear! Shield, Kelly, and Woods for the Grossmont Union High School Board of Trustees.
More than 100 GEA members have made thousands of phone calls encouraging voters to elect GARY WOODS and ROB SHIELD to the Grossmont School Board!
Over the next 21 days, even more GEA volunteers will do the same. Ask your GEA School Site Rep how you can help with phone calls in support of GARY WOODS and ROB SHIELD!
Also – Use your social media to help! Here are a few ways to do it:
Sample Facebook posts:
I stand with GEA members in support of the election of Gary Woods and Rob Shield to the Grossmont School Board.
GEA has my support in electing Gary Woods and Rob Shield to the Grossmont School Board. It impacts students, educators, and parents alike.
Join me and my colleagues in the Grossmont District. Elect Gary Woods and Rob Shield to the Grossmont District School Board!
In solidarity,

This past summer, three grievances were filed on behalf of GEA Members. The three grievances were resolved with the following agreements:
No more than 40 students per class:
GEA is working with the district to reduce the number of classes that are over the cap of 40 students.
Counselor ratios:
GEA asked that the district provide enrollment numbers by school site to review counselor/student ratios.
November election:
GEA provided lunch to members during a GEA lunch meeting at all district school sites over the past two weeks. If you missed those meetings, be sure to ask your GEA Rep for important information on the November election, and how it could impact Grossmont District students and employees in future years. Be sure to share GEA's recommendations for the November elections with colleagues, friends, neighbors and family members. Information is available at GEA-Action.org.
Hello GEA Members,
Welcome to the new school year!
This message contains information on:
1. A Stipend opportunity - Common Core Curriculum - Instructional Leaders needed - CTA/Stanford Grant to Support Common Core Curriculum Units
2. GEA Monitoring of class size with the Grossmont District
3. GEA Contract
4. Watch for an invite to a GEA lunch meeting (lunch provided) at your site soon.
1. CTA/Stanford Grant to Support Common Core Curriculum Units -- Teacher "Instructional" Leaders are needed to help implement the Common Core Standards throughout the state of California. You can submit names as a team. The team can include administrators. A stipend is included.
The deadline is September 17!!! See the attached application - for the project description of a grant that CTA, the Stanford Center for Opportunity Policy in Education (SCOPE), and the National Board Resource Center (NBRC) received to create an Instructional Leadership Corps (ILC) of accomplished classroom teachers, site leaders, administrators and higher education professionals. The ILC will provide expertise for the instructional shifts needed to implement the CCSS in ELA and Mathematics, and the NGSS; support the design and implementation of school-based professional learning around instructional practice; and create and lead regional professional development. Teachers chosen to participate in the ILC will receive a stipend of $2,000 for the first year.

2. GEA will be meeting with the district after the second week of school to make sure that all classes with over 40 students have been balanced to no more than 40. It is a contract violation to have more than 40 students in all classes except PE and performing arts, and it is not safe or fair to our students to have more than 40 students in a room.
3. The new GEA contract will be posted soon on GEA-Action.org.
4. GEA lunch meetings are planned for September -- Lunch will be provided -- Watch your emails for more information.

Hello GEA Members,
A very important Supreme Court ruling was issued on Monday, June 30, 2014. The case was called Harris v. Quinn and it had to do with union dues.
Briefly - the Supreme Court upheld an earlier case called the 1977 Abood case, which set up the requirement that a union – as the exclusive bargaining agent – had to represent all employees, both union and non-union members. In return for being the exclusive agent for all employees, the union could have union dues and fair share fees (agency fees paid by non union members) deducted from employee paychecks. This fee structure insured that the costs of bargaining contracts and providing other representation services would be fairly paid for by all who benefited.
As GEA President, I am very proud that the Grossmont Education Association has a very high percentage of union members. Of our 880 member bargaining unit, 94 percent are GEA members. That shows that GEA members stand together, unified to support each other with contract negotiations and work place relations and conditions.
In Harris v Quinn, the Supreme Court ruled 5-4 in support of eight health care workers who did not want to join a union that would have represented their interests a the bargaining table. Their case was funded by an anti-union organization.
Some of you may have worked in a job that had no union. Unions represent the interests of all members to insure fair and equal treatment in the work place. Often people working the same job in a non-union environment earn less in salary and have worse work conditions than those who benefit from union representation and membership. One can argue that unions help protect the middle class.
There are some very wealthy people who have funded court cases to challenge union dues and fair share fees collections. You can read about one such group who supported bringing Harris v Quinn to the Supreme Court, and how CTA fought to defend your interests and your union in this case, in the articles following this message.
Watch your emails and the GEA-Action.org Website for updates during the summer.

Research Goals
Panama City, May 15, 2009 – Stigma, discrimination and violence against homosexuals and other people who have same-sex relations, also known as homophobia, and against transgender, transvestite or transexual people, also known as transphobia, are hindering the efforts to curb the HIV epidemic in Latin America and the Caribbean, a group of United Nations (UN) agencies said today, in anticipation of the observation of the World Day against Homophobia (May 17).
Evidence indicates that these populations are disproportionately affected by the HIV epidemic. But fear of discrimination tends to dissuade people from seeking HIV testing, counseling, care and, when applicable, treatment.
PAHO VIDEO: Eliminate Homophobia
The UN LAC Regional Directors' Group, representing ten UN agencies, funds, programs and UNAIDS Secretariat working in the response to HIV in the Latin American region, has urged national government and civil society to renew efforts to eliminate homophobia and transphobia.
"Stigma, discrimination and violence against homosexual, bisexual and trans people will only stop if society works against it. It is imperative to develop a supportive environment where all people are treated with dignity and respect. All citizens are part of society regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity, but prejudice and repression have impeded recognition of the rights of sexual minorities, "said Rebecca Grynspan, Regional Director for Latin America and the Caribbean of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), on behalf of the group.
"This situation is improving, but not fast enough to halt and reverse the HIV epidemic by 2015, as committed by the governments," said the UNDP director. Within the UN system, UNDP is the lead agency for human rights, gender, and sexual diversity.
According to the UN, the hostility against these groups varies, but homosexual and trans people are frequently insulted, fired from jobs, and barred from community activities. Often they experience discrimination in the health services and are mistreated by the police. Every year there are reports of assaults and homicides motivated by homophobia and transphobia.
Trans people (transsexual, transgender and transvestite persons) face particular challenges, including severe discrimination and harassment in schools. Many are expelled during adolescence and have little chances of getting formal jobs.
The Joint UN Programme on HIV/AIDS will launch the document "UNAIDS: Action Framework: Universal Access for Men Who Have Sex with Men and Transgender People" , which calls for a coordinated and expanded UN response to improve the human rights situation of men who have sex with men and trans people.
"Countries in the region should observe the World Day against Homophobia as a way to strengthen human rights and build up more effective AIDS responses in the region," said Cesar Nunez, UNAIDS regional director for Latin America.
"Discrimination is an act against the essence of human beings. It gravely affects not only those who are directly discriminated against, but also their families and communities," said Marcela Suazo, UNFPA Regional Director for Latin America and the Caribbean. The International day against homophobia gives us the opportunity to create awareness of the problem and take responsibility to eliminate it."
"Hatred against people with different sexual identities or orientations is an assault on life itself and a clear violation of basic human rights, which call on us to avoid distinctions between human beings," said Mirta Roses, director of the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO). Nils Kastberg, UNICEF Regional Director for Latin America and the Caribbean, endorsed this statement.
The World Day against Homophobia was created by civil society organizations to mark the events of May 17, 1990. On that day, the General Assembly of the World Health Organization (WHO) approved the 10th Revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-10). The 10th Revision recognized that "sexual orientation (heterosexual, bisexual or homosexual) by itself is not to be regarded as a disorder." In earlier versions of the Classification, homosexuality had been classified as a "sexual disorder."
"Countries should use May 17 to examine their national legislation and policies, and determine how they can be improved," said Rebecca Grynspan, in the statement, which is also available in YouTube. Examples of countries that have enacted policies or legislation to curb homophobia include, Brazil, which launched "Brazil Without Homophobia" in 2006, a comprehensive effort involving several federal and state agencies; Argentina and El Salvador, which established that health services should no longer tolerate discrimination based on sexual orientation.
In 2008, Nicaragua and Panama, the last two countries in Latin America where sex between men was criminalized, revoked such legislation. In the Caribbean, the decriminalization of consensual sex among adults was proposed during the 8th Annual General Meeting of the Pan Caribbean Partnership Against HIV/AIDS (PANCAP) last November, but homosexual behavior is still effectively a crime in seven countries.
The Regional Directors Group was created in 2003 to enhance the synergy of the United Nations response to HIV in Latin America and the Caribbean. It is comprised of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO/WHO), the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), the World Food Programme (WFP), the International Labor Organization (ILO) and the World Bank. All of these organizations are co-sponsors of the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS).

Butch Jones with worst challenge decision in history
Tennessee scores with about 1:50 left. Down by 8 and still two timeouts. First onside kick Tennessee was offsides. Second onside kick Tennessee recovered but touched the ball after only 9.5 yards.
Butch Jones decides to challenge the ruling and loses a timeout. Missouri only has to snap the ball 3 times and they win. Dumb dumb dumb. Do not want.
Also was Pinkel ever a candidate back in 2007 or 2010? We might have screwed up not offering him. I think he could have been pretty good here.
It can't get worse-or can it?
Dropped Passes
This team has many flaws, all well-documented. I only watched the first quarter today, then followed the rest of the game online while attending a work function. Canteen's drop in the end zone after the fake punt just floored me. That pass was killer, and right in his wheelhouse, a sure TD. He's not the only one, Funchess looks like a prima donna out there. Wojo called Devon Gardner a "coach-killer" back in September, and I agree the INT's are just mind-numbing. But these guys have to catch the ball when it's right in their hands. Why don't they?

Usual markings. Normal wear. From the Publisher She''s savvy, she''s sleuth-y, she''s Natalie Fuentes. Trouble sticks to 16-year-old Natalie Fuentes like glue to paper. As the new kid at Western High, there''s nothing she''d like better than to avoid making waves and instead focus on My Very Secret Life, her self-published zine. But when the school''s reclusive caretaker is brutally attacked, Natalie is the only person who seems willing to investigate. Armed with the clues found in her zine''s clippings, pictures and notes, and with the help of the caretaker''s socially awkward son, Natalie searches for answers. Soon the two are stirring up secrets that others including the school''s most infamous "cool girl" clique -- want kept under wraps. When the trail leads to the police-shy leader of a local graffiti gang, Natalie must use all her streetwise wiles to crack the case. Illustrated with snippets from Natalie''s zine, and with a fast-paced plot that will keep readers guessing, Strange Times at Western High is as spirited as the savvy sleuth herself.
