I only have boys, so while I have an opinion on this, wanted to see how the moms of teen girls feel about store's such as Victoria's Secret carrying lines of sexy underwear that are for college aged girls, but appeal to a teen audience. They were recently targeted by moms for their "Bright Young Things" spring break line. From Time.com:
But should anyone be walking around in undies that declare "Dare You," "Call Me" or "Feeling Lucky?" like some of the missives printed on the manufacturer's spring-break inventory? That's certainly a matter of personal taste — for adults. But for young girls, "This speaks to the idea that girls have a fantasy of being raped, that women on some level are asking for it," says Dana Udall-Weiner, a Santa Fe, N.M., psychologist who works with girls on body image.

Would you let your teen wear suggestive underwear? Do you think that teen girls have a right to feel confident and sexy, or are they getting the wrong message from retailers?

What does knowing my dh as a teen, PKA, have to do with him sexting which you clearly stated?

Um, that was the context of the debate, you saying how you knew all teenage boys should respond to sexting and would be worried if they responded in the way that bord posted, which was totally appropriate. You said that you knew all about teenage boys, their hormones and how they should react to sexting by using your dh as an example. I don't know why you did what you did, but I have edited my comments saying that I don't really want to discuss this subject in depth because...I really don't want to discuss this subject anymore.
Frankly I'm appalled by your comments on the entire subject of sexting and that you brought your dh into the discussion. I think you need to read the posts, you seem to have large gaps in factual knowledge of the discussion.
|Wed, 04-03-2013 - 3:51pm

I said that my son in this post to Thardy : "Welcome to high school in the 21st century. We aren't the kind of people to try to ruin a young girl's life over a lapse in judgment. Usually all it takes is for the boy to tell the girl that he's deleted the picture and that he's disappointed in her for sending it."

Missed that and if I DID see it, I would have NEVER guessed you were speaking of your son. That was not very clear.

Well, since it was in a conversation where Thardy suggested that we should have called the police and reported the girls who sexted my son, I kind of thought it was clear that we were speaking of his response.

If you read my comments you might note that I said I wasn't going to discuss it, depsite the fact that you keep claiming that "all" teenage boys should enjoy sexting and you would be "worried" if they didn't. We keep saying that people shouldn' enjoy sexting, you are the one who is worried that the teenage boys are not.

But hey...way to take the comment of context, again.

YOU just took that out of context. I NEVER ONCE said that I was worried that the teenage boys were not sexting. I would NEVER approve of sexting either by a male or female and I am QUITE PLEASED that my teen thinks anyone that does that is STUPID. I said I was surprised of the reaction that he would be appalled and scared.

There was NO reason to throw in my dh who is an ADULT, not a 17 yr. old boy into the discussion. That was quite personal so I would appreciate it if you take it down.

Nope, you said you would be worried about his reaction to receving a sext. That "all" teenage boys were hormones and thought of sex all the time and he wouldn't like looking at half naked teen. All the while lol'ing all over the place. The context is clear and really appalling to be lol over the issue in any way. I think the proper response of a teenage boy is to be appalled and scared, what other response...other than your loling and stating that teenage boys think of sex all the time is correct? Something I have asked numerous times, none of which you answered.
And I didn't bring your dh into this discussion, you did. You used him as an example of how you know what teenage boys are like, I think you even lol'ed all over the comment as well. I said I wasn't going there, despite that fact that YOU brought him into this discussion, not me. I still don't want to talk about why you brought him into the discussion. Yep, I just checked you lol'ed as you brought him into the discussion.
<<<edited out the orignal comment>
I can't edit your comments, sorry.

Compared to the type of guys the rest of us are married to and trying to raise.

Please explain the differences since you know so much......

I am not sure that I can explain the difference between "high expectations" and "low expectations," "vulgar" and "not vulgar" and "classy" and "not classy" to you. You've been struggling all day to understand that trashy come-on lines on underpants is something other than the distinction between "cute/trendy" and "granny pants." I'm not sure we're ready for more abstract distinctions.

|Wed, 04-03-2013 - 3:46pm

Upset maybe that maybe the girl he knows would do that but appalled and a little scared? Come on.

Even if he couldn't find it in him to be scared and appalled on a moral level, you'd think that the possible repercussions if he'd been found with the picture on his phone would be enough to freak him out quite a bit.

Exactly, the consquences could be huge and there is nothing funny about this situation, not at all.
|Wed, 04-03-2013 - 3:45pm
Spice Girl, you ally do need calm down. Again, it was YOU who mentioned your husband..nobody e. I am not even sure what your all worked up about.
I was a bit surprised by the connection that was made....but I edited the comment but I can't edit the first comment since it wasn't mine and I of course can't edit the repeat comments that are not mine.

"LET'S GET BOPPIN'!!!!!! YEAAAAHHHHH!!!!!"Boppin' is a Puzzle Game made in 1994 by a company named Accursed Toys, which consisted of a few people, including Jennifer Diane Reitz of Unicorn Jelly fame. It was originally released for Amiga, but sold very poorly: a DOS version was later made, featuring more overall levels, a slightly different plot, a better color palette (as opposed to the 32 colors of the Amiga version) and some enhancements.The story: Boik and Yeet are two videogame heroes from the dimension of Arcapaedia. They soon learn that every villain in their favourite games are disappearing, and are confronted by a number of former game heroes, worried that, without any enemy to fight, they will become useless. Boik and Yeet discover that every enemy character was kidnapped and trapped by Sweety Hunnibunz, a creature who wants everything to become clean and wholesome by removing every trace of "bad things", beginning with games. Boik and Yeet then must fight him and, in later episodes, his unnamed wife and Oops, their son.The gameplay: Boppin' is divided into single-screen levels full of destroyable blocks and bonuses. There are spots on the ground where blocks spontaneously form (usually where Boik or Yeet appear): the heroes must pick them up and throw them to the other blocks to match them and make them disappear. Boik and Yeet can only shoot them with an angle of 45°, so the player should pay attention to the rebounds of blocks against walls and floors: if a block collides with another block that doesn't match, or against a lethal floor (indistinguishable from the normal tiles), or if it goes off the screen, Boik or Yeet will lose a life. There are also refractor tiles, that send the blocks bouncing against them flying in one of the four cardinal directions.The blocks disappear if two or more of them are matched, but if the player completes a pattern of blocks (usually cross- or square-shaped), one of the creatures captured by Hunnibunz will be freed, granting the player many additional points.The game can be found as freeware here, with full Win XP compatibility, and with the original Amiga sounds and music added.
The game provides examples of:

Painting my nails is one of those little things I like to do when I get a free moment to myself. Currently I keep my collection of nail polish in a cosmetics bag with clear zippered pockets – one pocket is for mani/pedi tools (nail clipper, file, etc.) and the other is for the polishes. It's worked great, however after several years of use, the bag now is worn and torn, and so I've been thinking of either finding a similar replacement, or maybe trying out one of these ideas:
(1) Dedicate a shelf in the medicine cabinet to them
(3) Line them up on a vanity tray
(4) Keep them in an acrylic organizer or (5) a re-purposed spice rack
How do you like to store and keep your nail polishes organized?
Sorry for the unexpected long silence here! I didn't plan to be away from the blog for so long. I've had several things going on at once these past few weeks, and with little downtime available to unwind and re-energize, honestly, it's been somewhat overwhelming and draining.
I'm just now starting to create a bit more breathing room to get a balance back. I've missed having time to do things like cook at home, exercise regularly, take Little Foot to the dog park, visit with friends, have a leisurely weekend, work on projects, make some progress on the apartment, write blog posts, catch up on my blog reading, etc. … I'm looking forward to integrating those things back in to my days.
Loving the look of flowering branches in the kitchen, whether in large or small scale:
A beautiful way to bring a bit of nature indoors, don't you think?
On most days, I tend to put my hair up in a pony tail, bun or chignon – any of you do the same? Here are a few ideas for keeping all those bobby pins and hair elastics organized and easily accessible:
Designate a specific spot for each type of hair accessory so that when you need an item you know where to find it. (1) A small clear vanity jar can beautifully hold hair elastics. (2) A paper clip holder works great for bobby pins since the magnetic ring makes them easy to dispense. (3) A larger container with dividers is great for separating out different sizes/types and for holding larger quantities. (4) Magnetized boxes and magnetic strips (5) adhered to the inside of a cabinet door are perfect for small spaces.
Where do you like to store your hair accessories? Share your ideas with us in the comments section!
Photos are a great way to label the contents of a box. We've seen them used for organizing shoes, and this lovely example from Elsie of A Beautiful Mess shows them used for organizing hats:

I will be giving my mom the royal treatment this weekend. She is my mentor, my role model, my greatest supporter, always giving her love and kindness. I feel so fortunate to be her daughter.
Happy Mother's Day to all you moms out there!
Last week I showed you photos of my office progress. Today I'm showing you photos of our living room. If you remember from this post, when we got the keys, the walls were painted a medium brown. Similar to the office, we decided we wanted to brighten things up with a nice white (we went with Horseradish C15-1 by Olympic):
Here's my list of things to get/make:
1. Throw pillows – I've been so busy making them for others, I haven't set aside the time to make some for myself! lol I guess also, I haven't really finalized what fabrics I want to use. I want to do four, maybe five pillows total. Two will probably be in China Sea's Aga Reverse in black and white, but not sure what I want for the others. Still deciding!
2. Art for wall above sofa – I'm thinking something abstract with various blues
3. Another table lamp and two side tables (the thing holding the current lamp is actually a shoe shelf turned sideways)
4. A rug to add a bit of warmth and texture
5. A mirror for above the fireplace – maybe a sunburst one or a tall rectangular one
6. Coffee table accessories
7. A flat screen TV (you can spot the "mini", yet bulky one we currently have in the second pic)
I'd love to take out the blinds and add new window treatments but considering we don't really know how long we'll stay in this condo (1 year, 2 years?), it may not be worth the investment. The white chair I've had since I was in college and was given to me by a friend of my mom's. It'll probably stay for now.
Well there you have it. That's what my living room looks like currently – a neutral base. Can't wait to add some life and color to it. Stay tuned for more updates!
An old fave from domino. This is such a great idea for a small room with no storage. A loft bed leaves leftover room underneath for a closet system to organize clothes and accessories. Fabric on the loft's undercarriage and custom curtains dresses things up. Every inch is maximized and the space feels serene and clutter free.

As the week comes to a close, we at Open Letter Books are getting ready to join the masses of publishers, agents, authors, translators, and book people in general in for Book Expo America 2013.
In addition to getting ramped up to see familiar faces and meet new ones, we'll be toting around a copies of a few of our forthcoming titles and plenty of shiny new catalogs to wave in your faces. And since we won't be at a booth this year, we will instead be everywhere. In the book lines, at publishers' booths, at snack-and-wine gatherings in the aisles, not
not crashing evening parties/events/galas, in the whispers of the wind, in the rustling of exhibit floor curtains. In your free book totes and dreams.
Creepiness aside, we'll basically be around all week and would love to see and talk to you! If you plan on being at BEA and want to catch us, shoot us an email, or check in with us on Twitter to see what we're up to. (We may even have a few free A Thousand Morons shirts to hand out!) You can also use the same means of contact to avoid us. As an added bonus, Chad will be speaking on panels Wednesday at the Alternative and Independent Presses panel at 10:40 a.m., and Friday at the The Translator & Editor panel at 3:30 p.m.Hope to see many of you there!
From this PW piece on BookExpo America and changes to the show:
Reed is already looking to bigger changes in 2013. In a blog post yesterday Rosato discussed a move to B2C, enabling publishers to connect directly with consumers. The show would move to Thursday to Saturday with the general public invited to attend author events and go on the show floor on the final day. "Nothing is baked," he wrote, "and we have a ton of due diligence to conduct to insure that a BEA that includes consumers, is an event that serves the industry."
Better late than never. And just wait for the Simon & Schuster rant about how "readers don't belong at our day of books!" I'm sure their reaction will be priceless and as confused as all get out.
Even though I don't approve of the 14-year-olds at Frankfurt who dress up in very skimpy clothes to look like their favorite manga characters and be photographer by old dudes, nor do I approve of the general lack of understanding among the great public on how to walk down hallways and up escalators, it was nice to see so many people flood the Frankfurt Book Fair clamoring for new books. So, I hope this comes true:
But while some publishers want more targeted audiences, others (and in some cases the same ones) would like to see BEA, in the words of Jacobs "broaden the show's constituency." If that means opening the show to the public, "I think it would be worth a try," Jacobs says, noting the phenomenal public turnout for New York Comic-Con. Opening the show to the public, however, "is a very polarizing issue," Muller says. "It would be a disaster," Sabia says. "There already is enough chaos in New York." Nevertheless, Fensterman says there will likely be a consumer component in New York next year: it will be separate from the actual convention, but held at the same time, offering publishers the chance to promote authors both to the trade and the public. Applebaum says Random has an "open mind" about the public attending. Such a move could change the complexion of the show, but that is all right with Jacobs. "I'm up for trying something new," Jacobs says. "Any sort of radical idea should be considered," agrees Jensen. (PW)
I'm leaving tomorrow morning for BookExpo America (aka BEA, aka ABA, well, OK, ABA is more than a bit outdated, but I think some people still say this), and with E.J. in Norway things might be a little quiet around here for the next few days.
This year BEA is in L.A., which is always nice and sunny. And somewhat inconvenient, since the fair has to be split up between two halls, forcing most people to walk back and forth and back and forth all day . . . but whatever. It's still 72 every single day. And the parties are a bit more glamorous than the ones in Chicago.
In case you're not familiar with BEA, this is an annual gathering of booksellers, publishers, reviewers, etc. It's a chance for publishers to show off the books they're bringing out over the next year and to touch base with independent booksellers from across the country. And yes, there are lots of parties. Overall, a good time is had by all.
I was talking to a professor here the other day about the difference between the Modern Languages Association annual conference and BEA. MLA is so high-pressure, both in terms of interviewing and having to present papers. You have to be on your game at MLA.
On the other hand, BEA is more of a celebration for surviving another year. (And really, when talking about indie bookselling, you can't overplay the survival aspect.) A time to re-energize, to get excited about books all over again with a few thousand of your closest friends. Oh, and did I mention the parties? (This year there's one at the Chateau Marmont.)
But seriously, BEA is the place where National Book Award buzz starts being generated, and where dudes in costumes walk around giving free hugs. It's occasionally over-the-top, it's frenetic, it's crowded—it's all of that, but it's also a lot of fun to see everyone again and at least have a chance to touch base and, you know, congratulate them on surviving for another year.
In addition to mingling and picking up new galleys, there are a ton of educational events, including three panels on translation. (I'm on two of them, both on Saturday. One about funding for translations, the other about marketing them. Which, from what I've heard, is just a bunch of hype. And speaking of the marketing one, we have a late scratch—Gregg Nations from Lost won't be able to attend since he's "going dark" following Thursday's season finale, which I take to mean that the finale is going to be "game changing" . . . )
Also on Thursday, we're having the annual Reading the World party. This year it's being held in collaboration with Bookforum and will take place at the REDCAT Theater (631 West 2nd St.) from 6-8pm. Anyone interested in going should e-mail me at chad.post at rochester dot edu.
I'll try my best to blog the BEA, but generally there's not a lot of downtime. May turn into one long recap next week . . .

Published June 24, 2013
After five years of referring to climate change as a long-term climate and humanitarian problem, President Obama is trying a new strategy. In a speech Tuesday to sell a package of regulations to limit greenhouse gases from power plants, Obama will list the ways a warming planet impacts human health now, White House officials say.
The strategy may have legs. Despite the growing consensus among scientists of how humans are impacting the atmosphere, how to confront climate change—or in some cases, whether it even exists—has deadlocked along party lines. "Framing issues around some of the near-term impacts on families is probably a more effective way to make people understand the benefits of these changes," says Paul Billings, a vice president for the American Lung Association, who was invited by the White House to attend Tuesday's speech. (See related story: "California Tackles Climate Change, But Will Others Follow?")
The administration has directed several government agencies to work together on a wide-ranging effort to try to quantify the "social costs" of climate change, including health effects. (See related story: "Obama Pledges U.S. Action on Climate Change, With or Without Congress.")
Other climate experts are leaning toward the health impacts as well, curious whether reframing the issue could kickstart the national conversation. "As we clean up the energy sector's carbon dioxide, we also clean it up for [other pollutants like] sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides," which have been linked to respiratory diseases, says David Hawkins, director of climate programs at the Natural Resources Defense Council.
How is climate change expected to affect human health? The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and climate experts illuminate the top five ways.
1) More heat waves, more heat-related deaths
Heat waves are the most deadly of any weather related events—more than hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, and tornadoes combined. The CDC expects not just more waves of warm weather, but more record temperatures as well. Currently, things like heat strokes kill 700 people a year in the United States. The CDC says if current emissions hold steady, officials project that number to rise as high as 5,000 by 2050.
The heating has already begun. Last year was the hottest year ever recorded in the United States. The 12 hottest years on record came in the last 15 years. With the urban heat effect—in which dense cities and paved surfaces produce more heat than in rural areas—people in cities may feel greater impacts. (See related: "10 Ways Obama Could Fight Climate Change.")
2) More asthma and worse allergies
Higher average temperatures from climate change have been shown to increase plant metabolism, causing the increased release of pollens, fungi, and spores. More than 20 million Americans are affected by asthma, a number the National Institutes of Health expect to increase exponentially with every degree increase in ambient temperature.
A bigger concern might be the presence of airborne particulates from coal-fired power plants, which are the U.S.'s biggest emitters of carbon dioxide. The administration is likely to argue that cutting CO2 emissions from power plants would also be helping to reduce the release of respiratory irritants sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide.
3) More mosquito bites and the diseases they carry
The relationship isn't completely understood and it depends on regional factors, but biologists have noted that as temperatures rise, the reproduction rates of parasites like malaria and West Nile virus also increase.
On top of that, mosquitoes and ticks tend to have larger appetites in warm weather, causing them to take more blood meals from unlucky mammals. The combination, says the CDC, is a scenario with the easier spread of diseases that ticks and mosquitoes spread.
4) Stressed agriculture, questionable nutrition
Longer growing seasons may be good for producing more food, but agriculture economists have warned that drastic fluctuations in year-to-year weather can overstress crops. In some regions, drought has been shown to encourage the reproduction of aphids and locusts, as well as several types of mold, that can hide inside many leafy crops. Those pests, some farmers fear, could lead to increased use of insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides. (See related Quiz: What You Don't Know About Food, Water, and Energy.)
In a study last year, the U.S. Climate Change Science Program indicated that an increase in sea-surface temperatures would lead to a proliferation of ocean bacteria species like Vibrio vulnificus and Vibrio parahaemolyticus that cause seafood-borne diseases. Most at risk, the study said, would be cultures heavily dependent on marine-based diets.
5) Contaminated water spreading pathogens
Climate change has already been linked to more extreme storms. Some of them, like Hurricane Katrina or Superstorm Sandy, have left entire cities underwater for days, allowing standing water to teem with bacteria and other pathogens. The impacts of standing water depend widely on the region's water and sewage treatment practices.
But scientists believe that new regions will be affected by floods and standing water. A 15-inch (38.1-centimeter) rise in sea level, the high end of what some models have suggested, would increase the annual number of people in the United States affected by coastal storm surges. It's now 50 million; by 2080, it could be as high as 250 million.

The cooler decades of the 50s, 60s and 70s had more violent tornadoes than the warmer 80s, 90s and 2000s. That data is found at the NWS. 2012 set a new record for the fewest tornadoes in any July. We are currently setting a new record for the longest length of time since a major hurricane has hit the US. Last major hurricane was Wilma in 2005. Tropical cyclone energy went down during the 30 years of recent warming.
In 1954 three major hurricanes hit the US east coast. Sandy was no longer a hurricane when it hit the US last year.
What more and stronger storms are you speaking about?
More people die from cold weather than hot weather.
Malaria did not increase during the 30 years of warming.
CO2 is plant food. Plants grow stronger and faster with more CO2. Plants are also more water efficient and more drought tolerant with more CO2.
Floods may be appearing to get worse but that has nothing to do with what is in the air. It has to do with what is on the ground. As man builds houses, buildings, roads, etc more ground is covered. This leaves less open ground available to soak up rain water and flood waters. The result is more runoff leading to flash floods and increased flooding. It also restricts the replenishment of ground water.Just because there are more people, and those more people are living in more and more areas that used to be unpopulated does not mean that weather is getting worse. It just means there are more people.
Mr. Stone, how do you define man caused global warming? My understanding is it's defined as rising global temperatures caused by human CO2. Are you aware that global temperatures have remained flat for at least 15 years as acknowledged by the UK Met Office, UN IPCC chief Pachauri, NASA, NOAA, and others? This despite global CO2 continuing to rise during this time. Are you aware that US CO2 has fallen over the past two decades, has plunged since 2006 and is heading lower? And that China's CO2 continues to skyrocket, that US CO2 could go to zero and it would have little to no effect on global CO2 at this point? If global warming is not happening, and especially if US CO2 is so low, none of the things you talk about in your article taking place in the US can be caused by global warming or man caused climate change.

Yes, these are all good additional reasons to fight against climate change. There is only one problem however, which environmentalists are refusing to own up to, while they push politicians to engage in unilateral and ineffective actions of self-sacrifice for the global good. John Nash's (A beautiful mind), game theory tells us that it is ineffective and self-harming, because of the "prisoner dilemma", so why do environmentalists continue to push for it? If people don't wake up soon, environmentalism will continue to be discredited, and even hated to the point where no initiative for sustainability will be accepted by society anymore. It will be viewed as a fool's endeavor. It is time to dump the idealism and adopt some common-sense ideas folks, because the way things are now, environmentalists are becoming the worst enemy of the environment.
I agree that not enough has been done to reach across the aisle on this issue, but it seems unlikely that Republicans would be willing to work with the President, even on the most innocuous initiatives to mitigate the effects of climate change. Politically, unilateral executive action has the potential to grease the wheels by forcing Congress to put climate change on the front burner, even if in opposition. In any case, the potentially devastating costs related to climate change are so great, that we must act now, even if the political price is through the roof, and even if it provides grist for deniers.
@Paul Loovis But people have been saying that "We must act now!" for years Paul. They'll be saying exactly the same in thirty years' time and nothing will have changed - except there'll be more people, more cars, bigger cities, more housing, less natural environment, less species etc.
The fact is that no one is prepared to dump their car tomorrow morning and pedal around on a pushbike. No one is prepared to never board a plane again, either for business or vacation, no one is prepared to stop switching on their lights, cooking on gas or electricity. No one will dump their dishwasher tomorrow and no one is prepared to stop buying manufactured and imported goods in their stores - food, toiletries, clothing, furniture, TVs, refrigerators, kiddies toys etc.
It will be exactly the same in thirty years' time. Those youngsters leaving school today will be driving around in cars which they will consider absolutely essential or their right to own. They will still jet off on vacation as their right. They will still buy a dishwasher rather than wash up in the sink, they'll still purchase TVs and cell phones and live the Western life-style as their right.
It's quite apparent to me that humans stepped beyond the tipping point long ago - probably when domestic electricity or motor vehicles became common. There was no way back after that. All this talk is just that - talk. These people will still be talking when they retire and leave the same problem to the next generation.

The 36 best songs you might hear on the main stage at this year's Westword Music Showcase
The 20th annual Westword Music Showcase is less than two months away. This year's installment will be on June 21. It's the day Denver music goes on vacation to the Golden Triangle, and I can go from watching a rapper to watching a punk band to watching a band with five stringed instruments in the space of an hour.
Photo credits below Clockwise from top left: Diplo, 2 Chainz, Man Man, King Khan and Cherub.
Tickets are on sale now. We'll announce the vast majority of the lineup very soon, and we'll spend plenty of time between now and the actual festival telling you about all 300-plus Westword Music Award nominees.
Also, this year's main stage is a pretty good party. It will feature Diplo, 2 Chainz, Cherub, Man Man and King Khan and the Shrines, and in case you're looking for a primer on that, we've put together a playlist of some of our favorite songs by those acts. Further explanation follows.
How about that ankle-breaking turn from "I'm Different" to "Van Helsing Boombox"? Hey, I tried. Let's just say I wouldn't hold my breath on a 2 Chainz/Man Man collaboration album. Still, there is a through line here -- none of these artists is too cool to do silly things in their music in the pursuit of good times. Those are frequently the best kinds of live bands, especially outdoors in the summer.
We were generous in interpretation here, allowing any song to which a main stage artist made substantial contribution. That means a bunch of songs produced by Diplo, like "Gringo" and Usher's "Climax." And there are a few 2 Chainz guest verses, like on "Beez in the Trap" and that incredible turn in "Mercy." Those songs could all conceivably appear on a set list. Less likely to actually appear on stage this June are the songs from King Khan's previous bands, including the Spaceshits and King Khan & BBQ Show. Still, those tracks give you an idea of the colossal energy and talent of the man.
So yeah, on June 21 we'll all get together and demonstrate the remarkable things going on in Colorado music. And there will be some pretty solid party-starting out-of-town guests around as well.

Philadelphia, PA 19103
$2 Admission from 12-6pm, each day
(Free to enter from 11am-12pm and 6pm-7pm, each day)
We are excited to announce that we will be bringing our popular Art Star Craft Bazaar indoors this fall to the 23rd Street Armory! We hosted one back in 2011 and are pleased to be bringing this show back once again.
The Fall Art Star Craft Bazaar is a retail art/craft show that is organized and juried by Philadelphia's premier craft shop, Art Star Gallery & Boutique. 60 of the very best independent makers from Philadelphia and beyond have been chosen to set up shop and sell their wares. Shoppers can expect high quality handmade goods that reflect Art Star's unique and quirky aesthetic. Erin Waxman + Megan Brewster of Art Star have hand selected a diverse collection of artists that create anything + everything, including housewares, paper goods, dolls, prints, ceramics, clothing, accessories, paintings/drawings, sculpture, and many other one-of-a-kind curiosities. All items have been handmade from a variety of mediums that include fabric, clay, glass, wood, paper and much more. The show will also include artists who will be selling select works (t-shirts, prints, cards, etc) that have been reproduced in small batches, if not locally, within the US. The Art Star Craft Bazaar aims to offer something for everyone (women, men, kids, moms, babies, teens, etc) at a range of prices to accommodate all budgets.

This is not what i said ! You can do a very simple SQL query find there are a another website with the same domain so first come first served.
And no this is not better than a human but it's take less time and it's better when you haven't this option checked.
You can not add duplicate domains, so if customer a added domain1.tld as mail domain, customer 2 cannot add it. So if thats all you want, then its already implemented. But it wont solve the phising problems as these problems arise when someone adds a domain which is not used on your server but might be used by other customers to send email to.
This is not wat i said, i said that with a Regex+SQL you can see if a domain is already used IN YOU SERVER, and this is logic no ?
Although this is not what I said, yes there's a regex that it allows you to do this and it is extremely simple regex you can do it in 15 minutes (Okey the script need to download a whois page from a whois provider (XML: HTML or anything else) and you perse it using regex to find the name after this you use a condition and it's done) but this is not what i say to do, what i say to do is to simply check if a domain is already used by another clients if we haven't check the option of limited domain, yeah okey it's not betted than a human but it's fast the same
1) You can not access whois data from all domains with a script. E.g. a .de domain requires a captcha and some tld's hide the owner details.
2) The whois data does not always match the client data.
3) Domains can be rented, so the person in the whois is not the person allowed to use it.
So if you reject domains based on whois details, you will get a lot of customer complaints.

/ Andy Cave Lecture at Beacon Climbing Centre
Please Register as a New User in order to reply to this topic.
ClimbUK - on 15 Mar 2013 - www.climbukltd.com
On Saturday 23rd March from 8:00pm at Beacon Climbing Centre, alpinist and author Andy Cave presents an inspiring journey of climbing exploration, from Bridlington to Pakistan, from Shetland to China. Lashings of drama and humour guaranteed as Andy relives some of his greatest climbs and travels. Includes brand new dramatic film footage of the recent desperate new alpine route Ecstasy, shot by Alistair Lee. Not to be missed.
All proceeds from the talk going to support the essential work of the Llanberis Mountain Rescue Team.
At 17 Andy discovered rock climbing and was instantly hooked. He dreamed of climbing the world's hardest routes, though many laughed at his ambition. Just three years later, he succeeded on the north face of the Eiger. After four years as a miner Andy quit his job so he could dedicate himself to climbing and has never looked back, climbing hard routes on rock and ice, in the UK and far abroad in the greater ranges.
"One of the greatest mountaineers of his generation." Observer
"A natural story teller." Joe Simpson
His story has been read by tens of thousands in his two award winning books, Learning to Breathe and Thin White Line. He has appeared on radio and TV, as both presenter and subject, and has inspired many with his journey of an ordinary boy growing up to achieve remarkable things.
Venue: Beacon Climbing Centre
Address: Cibyn Estate, Caernarfon, LL55 2BD
Date: Saturday 23rd March
Time: 8:00pm
Tickets: �8 and available on the door.
