What did you think about last Sunday's episode of Once Upon a Time, 'Fruit of the Poisonous Tree'? Read Selina's review and share your own thoughts in the comments!
This was the episode in which we began to delve into the backstory of the Queen, and to explore the breakdown of the relationship between her and Snow White. What I thought was going to be a Regina centric episode turned out to be more focused on Sidney, aka. Snow White's Magic Mirror, aka. Aladdin's Genie. (Honestly the best thing about this episode was that it opened the door for us to eventually meet Aladdin!)
Meet the nicest guy in the kingdom! Yaay. Oh wait he dies.
The episode opened with Snow White's father, King Leopold, finding the lamp and unlocking the Genie. And, being the philanthropic superhero that he was (can you tell that I love this man?), Leopold confessed that he already had everything he needed and granted the Genie his freedom. Lesson to be learned, children? Never be nice to strangers, apparently!
This was such an interesting scene, because I for one was not expecting Sidney Glass to be the embodiment of two separate fairytale characters! By venturing into Aladdin territory the show is really moving away from the Grimm-centric storylines (but still primarily Disney, hmm), and it opens the door for many more adventures of the Genie… which of course would be more appealing if we didn't know what a selfish man he turned out to be. But he did warn Leopold, a horrible fate would befall anyone who made their wishes. Even, it turned out, when these wishes were selfless. How unfair is that?
We meet the Evil Queen for the first time, sans the evil.
The first chronological glimpse of the queen was very misleading, as it made it appear as if she was the poor victim of a loveless marriage. And in some ways, I suppose she was: King Leopold, in all his well meaning wisdom, proclaimed his undying love for Snow White's departed mother in front of the whole kingdom, and that's enough to drive anyone to the edge. But the queen was evil way before this, I strongly believe. It was all an act, and she was so coldly calculating, it's frustrating. I hate it when villains always outsmart the good guys.
This was of course also what happened in Storybrooke, which is why this episode frustrated me to no end. Regina and Mr. Gold seem to keep winning the small battles; even Emma being appointed as sheriff ended up working to to Regina's advantage. We need the good guys to get the upper hand just once, otherwise it'll just feel futile and get stale.
Don't bite the hand that feeds you! And don't get the snakes of Agrabah to do it, either.
One of the best things about this episode was the way in which Genie brought about his own misfortune. Once Upon a Time likes to turn the fairytale stories on their heads and in this week's episode not only was the Genie and the Magic Mirror revealed to be the same person, but we also learned that the Magic Mirror wasn't trapped by the Queen. He trapped himself, and he deserved it!
Because as horrible as the Queen's manipulative games were, what happened to King Leopold was 100% the Genie's fault. The fact that he would even consider killing the king of awesomeness for "love" was just outrageous, and I'm glad that he didn't get his wish the way he wanted in the end. The Queen is easier to understand because she's just evil, whereas the Genie was selfish yet tried to justify his actions. Jerk. (Isn't it sad that I'm using that word to describe this guy?)
Basically, Sidney just needs to be taken down. There was no excuse for his actions in the fairytale world, and clearly his sense of justice hasn't been righted by his time spent entrapped by the Queen. The term "Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me" applies perfectly to Sidney in this case, and I just need Emma to just beat him in something, figure him out and trick him and drive him out of town (and then let's see what happens when he tries to leave)!
Meanwhile, in Storybrooke…
David and Mary Margaret made a brief appearance this week just to drive home the point that yes, they are carrying on their adulterous affair as opposed to just coming clean to his wife. Um, wtf? Look, I love Snowing as much as the next fan, but this is ridiculous. David's attitude of trying to have Mary Margaret while still avoiding confronting his wife is so textbook (no pun intended) adultery, and yeah, he's secretly a fairytale character with amnesia, but he doesn't know that. Mary Margaret doesn't know that. If this is so true love, why not just come clean to Abigail? For the sake of storytelling tension, I suppose, but it's not good enough, and it makes it difficult to root for them. If these two don't make this love official by next week's episode, I'm… tweeting the writers. That's right! That'll show 'em.
And speaking of things that are off, I didn't like the final scene between Emma and Henry. Yes, we know that Regina is evil. Henry knows that she's evil. But Emma doesn't, as much as she doesn't like her. Yet Emma is actively turning Henry against his legal mother by telling him, "Regina won't let me see you" (paraphrased). Dude. Not cool.
1,001… questions left to be answered.
It was interesting for an episode that went back as far as it did that we saw no hint of the Queen/Snow White relationship. We know from 'The Heart is a Lonely Hunter' that they were on good terms before the Queen tried to have her killed, but where did that hate come from? How did Snow ruin her life? How did the Queen get so evil? Luckily we're going to meet Regina's mother soon, and hopefully that'll give us some more insight.
All in all this was a fairly good episode in terms of establishing Sidney's character, but not one of my favorites. I guess maybe this is because I really, really detested the fact that evil kept winning, which in a way is a good thing: Once Upon a Time can make me this frustrated because I care so much about the storyline. I need the good guys to win!

Convicted serial killer Joseph Naso was sentenced to death today by a Marin County Superior Court judge.
Naso, 79, of Reno, Nev., was convicted by a jury on Aug. 20 of strangling four women between 1977 and 1994. The bodies of Roxene Roggasch, Tracy Tafoya, Pamela Parsons and Carmen Colon were found off of rural roads in Marin, Contra Costa and Yuba counties.
The jury in September recommended that Judge Andrew Sweet sentence Naso to death and the judge agreed, handing down death sentences this afternoon for the murders of Tafoya, Parsons and Colon. For the killing of Roggasch, Sweet also issued a sentence of life in prison.
At today's hearing, Naso again insisted he was not guilty and said the evidence against him was inflammatory and political.
Prosecutors said evidence in Naso's home tied him to the murders of the four women. Evidence presented at the trial included photos Naso took of women dressed in lingerie and heels who appeared dead or unconscious.
DNA from Naso and his ex-wife Judith were also found on pantyhose found on Roggasch's body, prosecutors said.
Naso also kept what the prosecution called a "rape diary" in which Naso described picking up and sexually assaulting women in various cities over several decades.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

NBA players union set to begin decertification process
The NBA players union is ready to decertify, and could begin the process as early as Friday. If the players do not accept the owners' revised proposal, expect this negotiation (can I call it a negotiation if neither side really does much negotiating?) to get uglier than the form on Kevin Martin's jump shot. (CBS Sports)
Another outcome likely will begin to unfold Friday before the union even decides whether to accept the proposal — and would continue to progress regardless of the outcome of next week's player rep meeting: Agents dissatisfied with the deal the union has negotiated and the intransigence of league negotiators already have more than 200 signatures on decertification petitions which are ready to be submitted to the National Labor Relations Board requesting a vote to dissolve the union, according to a person familiar with the plans.
Such a move would threaten to torpedo whatever support there is among the union membership to approve the owners' offer, and if it resulted in the players deciding not to vote on the proposal or voting it down, could throw the 2 1-2 year negotiations into the chaos of an anti-trust lawsuit — virtually guaranteeing that the 2011-12 season would be lost.
Regardless of whether the owners moved on many key issues (and reports say they didn't budge much from their last offer), the players must consider accepting the proposal. Yes, the owners are predatory creatures designed to suck the players' blood. Yes, the players have lost this "negotiation," if you can call it that, by a landslide. Yes, free agency might be slightly restricted and the cap would remain hard-ish, or at least a lot harder than it used to. But the alternative is scary: the owners will cut back their offer, causing a long legal battle during which the players will use a tactic that, according to Ken Berger, hasn't worked in the history of professional sports.
Right now, the players can either pass to Joel Anthony posting up, allow Rajon Rondo to launch a three pointer, or bring Bruce Bowen out of retirement to run an isolation play. In other words, the options are not good.

Beijing has rejected Taipei's claim that two Chinese military aircraft had breached Taiwan's airspace four times, saying it was a "routine flight".
"There was no occurrence of any abnormality," China's Defence Ministry said in a faxed statement to the Reuters news agency late on Tuesday.
Taiwan said it scrambled its jets to intercept two planes, identified as Yun-8 transport aircraft, on Monday.
The Chinese aircraft left without incident, Xiong Ho-ji, major general of Taiwan's Air Force Combatant Command, said on Tuesday.
"We followed them closely to make sure they left our ADIZ [Air Defence Identification Zone]," said Xiong, declining to say how many fighters were mobilised in the two missions.
The United Daily News, a Taiwanese newspaper, cited an unidentified military officer as saying that Chinese aircraft had detoured in the past so as not to enter Taiwan's ADIZ.
By entering it this time, the Chinese air force could test Taiwan's air surveillance capabilities and its reaction to intruders, the officer said.
The incident came amid speculation that China may set up an ADIZ in the South China Sea to assert its territorial claims there.
Deep suspicions
The latest incident risked hurting ties between China and Taiwan, which have been ruled separately since defeated Nationalist forces fled to the island at the end of a civil war in 1949.
China has never renounced the use of force to bring Taiwan under Beijing's control.
While relations have improved under the China-friendly President Ma Ying-jeou, who has signed a series of landmarkeconomic deals since taking office in 2008, deep political and military suspicions remain.
The alleged breach of Taiwanese air space comes a week after the US Defence Department lodged a diplomatic complaint with Beijing about the conduct of a Chinese fighter jet, which it said came within metres of a US navy patrol plane.
China said the criticism was groundless and its pilot maintained a safe distance from the plane.

I was fortunate enough to have dinner with Mara Zebest when she was in Phoenix for the Sheriff Joe Arpiao "cold case posse" news conference. She is an outstanding expert on Adobe software, and she has been a leader in the fight to expose the forgeries perpetrated by Obama and his minions. Here, she takes on a Republican Congressman, Dan Lungren. We should all go and ask our leaders these tough questions. Thank you, Mara, for your leadership.
Lungren is my local congressman and a FRAUD just like O'bummer. i've written to him MANY times and I doubt he even reads them. I' going to vote AGAINST him next time he tries to run

2007 Cadillac Escalade Overview
Overall User Score
Based on 13 reviews
The 2007 Cadillac Escalade rolls down streets with a little more conviction after upgrading its powerful V8 engine to 6.2 L and 403 hp with 6 speed automatic transmission. In addition, Cadillac re-did the exterior and strengthened the frame for the most famous SUV in hiphop. Improved steering and 22 inch wheels add style and substance to this powerful vehicle.
The 2007 Escalade comes in 2 trims: AWD and 2WD. Gas consumption runs from 13 mpg in the city to 20 mpg on the highway. This luxury SUV has 4 doors and 3 rows of seats that can hold up to 8 people. Standard features include power windows, power door locks, leather seats, power seats, cd player, ABS brakes, traction control, and stability control. Sunroof and navigation system come as options. The Escalade goes from 0-60 mph in a shade over 7 seconds. As for trunk space, the 2WD gives you 16.3 cubic feet and the AWD gives you 16.9.
Everyone loves the power and performance that the Escalade provides. However, drivers would appreciate better fuel consumption and easier access to the third row of seats. In any event, bring your checkbook and your conviction when you head to the dealership. The '07 Escalade understands its identity and makes no apologies.

Another Skype phone/mouse hybrid doesn't win me over
We've seen Skype phones crammed into computer mice before, but few of them look like anything we'd ever want to use. This new one looks perhaps a bit more usable, but it still has the same issues that plague every phone/mouse combo.
First, the good: It's a slider, so you won't have to use a mouse with buttons all over it. It has a little screen on it, so you can see details about your call while you're on it. The bad? Well, if you use the phone you won't be able to use your computer at the same time, as you'll be holding your mouse up to the side of your head. Yeah, not that useful. I don't see why phones that are designed to just work with Skype are popular when a headset is clearly the easiest way to go. Oh well, to each his/her own, I suppose.

The Satisfaction of an iPhone
By Deena Majeed
You have owned an iPhone 4 since it came out. You accessorized it with different covers, a wall-charger, and even a car-charger. Then in October 2011, the iPhone 4S emerges. Suddenly, you want the new iPhone, you need the new iPhone, you envision the new iPhone in your hands. So you upgrade, and you get rid of your (suddenly) old model. The newer version is minimum two hundred dollars with a two-year contract, you add on insurance (just in case), and a new cover or two.
You are content…until the iPhone 5 comes out in 2012, and then the cycle repeats.
This scenario is familiar to many Americans who like to keep up with the latest trends. It is a cycle of replacing and upgrading perfectly usable objects that we own, and it is a result of 'perceived obsolescence'. Perceived obsolescence is a concept that explains how we believe that the items we own, that are still usable, have suddenly become 'obsolete' (The Story of Stuff). They cannot be used anymore because there is a better, newer, and more functional version out there. Remember the first version of the iPhone? It has become so obsolete that the concept of buying and using one now is laughable.
However, perceived obsolescence applies to more than just iPhones; it applies to any material object that we buy. Down the line, we decide that we want to get rid of these objects because they are no longer trendy; this includes clothing, electronics, and even home décor.
The Qur'an tells us how we have become so distracted with material objects:
"Competition in [worldly] increase diverts you, until you visit the graveyards," (Qur'an 102:1-2).
Do we wish to spend all of our lives racing to accumulate material goods and benefits that will never bring us true satisfaction? Although it is exciting to receive a new iPhone, how long until we get bored and decide that we want something better, newer, and more expensive? We spend countless hours per week working, only to spend a great percentage of our paycheck on things that we do not need.
As for the solution, are we supposed to shun all material aspects of this life and deem them haram (prohibited)? No, not necessarily. But we do need to realize that the problem is not in the practice of being consumers, but in the actual mindset of consuming. We need to learn how to alter our perspective and realize the difference between wanting something and needing something. Of course we all know the actual difference between wanting and needing, but the line between these two concepts becomes fuzzy when we desire the wrong things. We begin to believe that we actually need the new iPhone, video game console, or pair of jeans, even though we simply want it and in reality, our life would not crumble or fall apart without it.
As Yasmin Mogahed reminds us: "Remember that everything in this life is only a glimpse. Love, beauty, happiness are only imperfect approximations. Only the dunya (worldly) version of these things. Seek the Real thing […]"
The line between the 'real thing' and 'approximations', however, has become blurred. We have become so bombarded with advertisements that lure us into believing we want things that we do not even want. Men are convinced that if they buy a certain cologne they will look as handsome as the model wearing it, and women are convinced that if they buy a certain mascara they will have eyes as beautiful as the model's, even though both the male and female models in the advertisements have been heavily photoshopped. Many times we believe the advertisement, we fall for its promises, its deceptions, its lies, and we buy the cologne, the mascara, the jeans, the camera—anything and everything that is advertised these days. We buy the product, we may use it for a while, and eventually it becomes clutter that fills up our homes and our lives. Eventually our homes and our minds become so stuffed with clutter and things that we do not need that our values become inflated as well. We forget what is important and what is not.
Remember our main goal in this life: to serve Allah subhanahu wa ta`ala (exalted is He), and to reach jannah (heaven) in the real, everlasting life. Enjoy the beauties of this world because they are gifts from Allah (swt) but do not be led astray by them. The less stuff we have, the more grateful we will be for the things we do have.
Studies have shown that truly happy purchases are not material objects, but experiences that we create. These types of purchases create memories that will never be forgotten, that we can carry with us at all times, and that will never clutter up our shelves.

Jazakallah khair for this awesome post! This is a great reminder!
This is really wonderful…I would be definitely keeping this in my mind and heart coz at times I'm affected here…
Jazakum Allah Khair for the much needed reminder!
beautiful post.. JazakAllah khair for posting it
Bismillah Masha'allah
Lovely! Thanks for the reminder
Assalaamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh,
Jazakumullahu Khairan for a beautiful reminder!!! Barak Allahu Feekum:)
So true – and related to this is the fact that happiness is actually an attribute of the soul – not the body.
And because happiness is of that spiritual realm, only things of the spiritual realm – acts of 'worship' – will truly advance a person towards achieving it.
I wrote about this (in a kind of transcript of a lecture) a while back at:
I wish you guys would stop slamming Americans and "westernization" (whatever that is)
Take a look around, the restaurant visits, trips to Zara, American Eagle, Michael Kors etc.
expensive cross country and continental vacations, the lavish cars/BMW
obsession. The need to marry someone with a title making at least 6 figures and
the weddings with HUNDREDS of guests!?! The huge banquets and all of that food you throw away!?! Never in my life life have I seen
such waste and extravagance. Ya'll better get real, the Americans you see on t.v. are hard to come by in terms of the whole and the materialism you may be experiencing has little to do with America, the most charitable country in the world.
Years after my grandfather died, my grandmother told me it is amazing how little it takes to get by on and be happy and content.
MashaAllah, SubhaanAllah. Keep it up.
As salamualikum, reminds me to look around my home and mentally , throw out a lot or abandon many items , decide what I'd keep should an emergency evacuation occur.
With all due respect, the author didn't say anything about Americans or westernization… More than likely, the author is an American… And as a muslim and a proud American (born and raised), I can tell you that the author had no intentions of saying only "those Americans get wrapped up in all this materialism…" No, it is a very real muslim problem and it has been a very real human problem since the beginning of the first human being… According to the Islamic tradition, as soon as God (All Praise be to Him) breathed life into Adam while he was in heaven, Adam jumped and started running around because of his amazement of all of what he was seeing… heaven. God revealed a verse referring to this story, the meaning translating something to the effect of "Human beings have been created in haste."
Imam Webb told a story that happened about 1400 years ago that Umar ibn Khattab, the second Caliphate, saw a man running, and he could tell that the man was in a hurry. And so he asked him, "Why are you in such a hurry?" So the man replied, "Because I'm in a rush to go eat my favorite food." So Umar replied, "Have you no control over your desires?"
Materialism is a very real problem that we all have to deal with, muslims included. So please don't take it as an offense against the, like you said, lifestyle of a very few number of Americans. Everyone knows Kim Kardashian does not represent the majority of Americans, who are hard-working people. This country was founded on hard-work. But this article was only to give a message, to be grateful for what you have, and recognize that this world is not the target. The target is in the hereafter, heaven. We're all here trying to improve ourselves, together, am I'm glad that you posted on this website.
I certainly don't remember reading a verse like that in the Quran. Please, if someone knows it, cite that verse.
hi sister, i remember that reference but could not recall the verse so i looked it up. aside from that given by Muslimah below:
al-Isra, 11 "And man supplicates for evil as he supplicates for good, and man is ever hasty."
al-Ma'arij, 19-20 "Surely man is created of a hasty (or anxious) temperament; When evil touches him, impatient,"
and several others referencing man's foolish desire for a hasty world.
anyway the article reminded me of when i bought my car (still have it), and telling the saleswoman that i'm looking for a car that will work reliably given that i was intending to have it for at least 10 years. i mean for certain reliable brands, this is completely achievable. i could see from her face the saleswoman had some difficulty with this, as she asked whether i was not intending to swap it over in 5 years or 7 like most people? (but she recovered quickly and accepted it when i indeed assured her so.) i reckon the next time i consider changing it is when there's sufficient technological advancement in fuel efficiency technology.
but it's hard to resist the cultural norms; you're gonna have to suffer being joked about for still not changing a relatively early (but perfectly adequate) Nokia smartphone running on Symbian… i've got used to it though.
May allah reward you, great post.
Another added bonus to not needing the latest cool gadget is a rise in the bank account. If you can keep your current Iphone, to use the analogy from above, working for the long term, you will not have to dish out hundreds to get a new one.
If you can make it habit to purchase older models of the technology gadgets, you save hundreds. If you can make them last also, then even more saved.
After all, they do say "A penny saved is a penny earned."
Assalamu Alikum
I believe the verse is not that Allah (swt) created man in haste. It is that man is a creation characterized by haste.
The actual verse is:
خُلِقَ ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنُ مِنۡ عَجَلٍ۬ۚ سَأُوْرِيكُمۡ ءَايَـٰتِى فَلَا تَسۡتَعۡجِلُونِ
"Man is a creature of haste: soon (enough) will I show you My Signs: then ye will not ask Me to hasten them!" (21:37)
jazakallahu akhairan 2gda we wil mek it,American,European,African,Asian,Australian etc alla Muslims r brothers to 1 anoda.
Good reminder!!! Jazakallah

Watch the video to see Harry get flirty with the girl, who has not been identified.
As these things go, every time Harry even smiles in a girl's direction, he's now dating or hooking up with her.
There's some buzz that it could be Kimberly Stewart, after her dad, Rod Stewart, confirmed that Harry and his daughter spent a night together.
To be honest, we don't see a whole lot going on in the (very) brief video...what do you think?

Hey Guy, nice you see lunch was well served! I would agree that the current app model for ebooks on the iphone does allow for big brother actions, as Apple has done, will no doubt do, and who is not transparent in the least.
But what changes with the iPad is that books will be sold through Apple's Books app. The question will be, are these books like songs and movies in iTunes and owned by the user? Or something like the Kindle where Amazon has the ability to centrally delete? The iPad feels less like a net device than the Kindle (even with few porting or connection options), so I don't think the app model will be used for ebooks. Won't know till I test one out! You said you were getting yours on the 2nd?

Facebook friends could hurt your credit score
Updated On: Aug 27 2013 06:56:09 AM EDT
Looking for a loan? Thanks to Facebook, you could be denied.
Traditional lenders look at your credit score and payment history to determine if you're a good bet, but now, a handful of tech start-up companies are helping them use Facebook to add to that money picture.
Like Lenddo, which looks at who your friends are on Facebook. If you're friends with someone who is late paying back a loan, it might be bad for you.
Another company, called Kreditech, goes further, looking at Facebook, eBay and Twitter to learn more about your financial picture.
The companies are start-ups and are not being used by big lenders, as of now.

Game-fixing at highest level?
Dictators said to fix Italy, Argentina World Cup titles
ZURICH — Soccer's biggest prize may have twice been won with the help of dictators fixing matches for the host team. Argentina's triumph in 1978 and Italy's in 1934 were said to be influenced by military leaders seeking propaganda coups, delegates were told Thursday at a symposium titled "The Relevance and Impact of FIFA World Cups."
"It's the same old story: Sport and politics are brothers and sometimes sport is under the other brother," Italian writer Marco Impiglia told The Associated Press.
Impiglia presented a paper suggesting Benito Mussolini ensured favorable refereeing decisions, helping the Italian team win.
Raanan Rein, an Israeli professor of Latin American history, said he was "100 percent persuaded" that Argentina's military junta influenced a 6-0 win against Peru. The match is a notorious chapter of World Cup lore and ensured Argentina advanced to the final instead of great rival Brazil.
Still, Rein and Impiglia said their claims lack documentary proof.
The four-day gathering of academics and historians is studying the political, social and economic impact on nations that have hosted the biggest and most-watched sports event since the World Cup was first played in Uruguay in 1930.
FIFA's choice of Brazil, Russia and Qatar — three countries with growing economies and diplomatic influence — as the next hosts from 2014 to 2022 suggests soccer and politics will continue to mix.
"It tells me that in terms of the global presence of football since the 1930s, FIFA has made a big step forward," said conference co-organizer Stefan Rinke, a professor of Latin American history at Free University in Berlin.
Opening the conference on Wednesday, FIFA secretary general Jerome Valcke acknowledged that working with democratically elected governments can complicate organizing tournaments that require billions of dollars of investment in stadiums, airports, roads and hotels.
Dictator-led hosts presented a different kind of challenge, delegates were told.
Rein said the generals who seized power in Argentina in 1976 needed a propaganda victory two years later to appease their people and a global community angered by the regime's often brutal treatment of opponents.
They collaborated with "at least one foreign government" to fix the Peru match, Rein said, as Argentina needed to win by four goals.
"According to many people I spoke with in Argentina ... there is in fact no question about it," said Rein, adding that many activists were conflicted by their affection for the players to speak out. "It not only stains the military regime but it also stains the national team, and they had a great national team. In many ways, they deserved to win the World Cup."
The junta fell in 1983, after a military defeat against Britain, and Rein speculated it could have gone sooner but for the extra-time victory in the `78 final against the Netherlands.
"Not winning the World Cup might have had somewhat similar consequences like being defeated in the Falklands, or Malvinas, islands in mid-1982," he said.
Mussolini described soccer as "unmanly," yet recognized its popularity and potential to create "a myth of a new Italy" when FIFA chose the 1934 host, Impiglia said.
"The fascist regime made a political abuse of the event," Impiglia said. "It was a questionable win and it raised many doubts at the time."

Hollywood Attorney Skip Brittenham Prepping Massive Graphic Novel
The name of the October 15 graphic novel release is Anomaly, and that it certainly is. Mainly because the co-author is none other than show business super-attorney Skip Brittenham, whose day job involves negotiating massive pay-or-play deals for A-list actors.
At 370 pages, Anomaly is being hyped as the longest graphic novel yet. Brittenham has paired with artist Brian Haberlin (of Spawn series fame) for a story set in 2717:
Humans live in off-world colonies, and a single corporation, The Conglomerate, routinely conquers other planets to steal their resources. The story follows a group of explorers who embark on a diplomatic mission to a mysterious planet, only to find themselves embroiled in a global conflict between its exotic inhabitants… Brittenham and Haberlin worked with distinguished professors in philosophy, religion and science to develop Anomaly's cultural landscape and planetary functions based on actual historical and scientific facts.

Balmain Fall 2012 Campaign
Balmain's Fall campaign has been out for a while, but it is still one of my favorites of the season. The more pared down ads are definitely starting to have an impact in the face of excessive accessories-focused spreads.

WHITE PLAINS, New York, (April 9, 2011) – Crosman's public relations counsel, John Brandt, joined Dick's Sporting Goods staffers and a number of other vendors to make the grand opening of the chain's new White Plain, NY store a special event.

OKLAHOMA CITY (May 6, 2014) — In recognition of National Teacher Appreciation Day, Superintendent of Public Instruction Janet Barresi is urging all Oklahomans to show their gratitude.
OKLAHOMA CITY (May 7, 2014) – Testing season can be a stressful time for students, but a number of innovative teachers throughout Oklahoma have tapped their creative energies to make the experience fun and interesting for their classes.
Topics include:
Read the full newsletter
OKLAHOMA CITY (May 9, 2014) – About 80 percent of Oklahoma third-graders are eligible to be promoted to fourth-grade based on the state's reading test scores, according to figures released today to Oklahoma school districts and elementary schools. Sixteen percent of third-graders scored Unsatisfactory but will have two additional opportunities to demonstrate basic reading skills through a student portfolio or an alternative reading assessment provided for under the state's Reading Sufficiency Act (RSA).
OKLAHOMA CITY (May 12, 2014) — Superintendent of Public Instruction Janet Barresi made the following remarks today following House passage of House Bill 2625:
"Today's vote endorses a system of social promotion that has failed to reduce illiteracy and has deprived students from receiving the best education possible. Nothing is more fundamental to learning than the ability to read. The Reading Sufficiency Act can greatly improve literacy in our state, but it cannot work if it is abandoned for social promotion.
OKLAHOMA CITY (May 13, 2014) – The Oklahoma State Department of Education has launched a new transparency website for the public that houses all school district financial information reported through the Oklahoma Cost Accounting System (OCAS).
OKLAHOMA CITY (May 14, 2014) – As the Oklahoma State Department of Education (OSDE) has not yet received a supplemental appropriation for teachers' health insurance premiums, known as the Flexible Benefit Allowance (FBA), state Superintendent of Public Instruction Janet Barresi has directed OSDE to use what remains in the schools' activities funds to pay for the health insurance of Oklahoma's fulltime district employees.
OKLAHOMA CITY (May 16, 2014) — State Superintendent of Public Instruction Janet Barresi thanked Oklahoma legislative leaders and Gov. Mary Fallin for unveiling a budget agreement that will provide $80 million in additional funding for K-12 public education.

Force India team principal Vijay Mallya believes his outfit can catch Williams in the Constructors' Championship.
Williams have enjoyed a great season so far, picking up three podiums to find themselves fourth in the standings behind Mercedes, Red Bull and Ferrari.
Their Silverstone counterparts are one spot below and 37 points behind, but Mallya is confident his Force India squad can make up the ground in the remaining eight races if they all pull in the same direction.
"Like us they have the best power unit, so that definitely gives them an advantage over where they were last year. And don't forget, in pre-season testing Williams showed their pace," he told the official Formula 1 website. "It was very clear that they would be very competitive. In fact I was a bit surprised that they didn't do in the first couple of races what they've done in the last few races. So we definitely will not make the mistake of underestimating them.
"Can we catch Williams? Yes, we can. We have to work hard at it as well, but as I just said, there's still a long way to go. They have done a great job and one should complement them for this - probably in the same way that we are doing well - unexpectedly - as a midfield, small team. The opportunity is there."

- 1/2 cup milk (do not use low-fat or nonfat)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 8 1/2-inch-thick slices egg bread
- 3 tablespoons butter
- Maple syrup
Preheat oven to 300°F. Place baking sheet in oven. Combine peaches, brown sugar, 1/4 cup water, cinnamon and nutmeg in heavy medium saucepan. Cook compote over medium heat until liquid is reduced to medium-thick syrup, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes.
Whisk eggs, milk and vanilla in large glass baking dish until well blended. Arrange bread slices in egg mixture. Let stand until egg mixture is absorbed, turning once, about 5 minutes.
Melt 1 1/2 tablespoons butter in large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add 4 bread slices to skillet. Cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer to baking sheet in oven. Repeat with remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons butter and 4 bread slices. Serve with peach compote and maple syrup.
