Not News (but Good to Be Reminded): The Internet Is for Wankers
The Internet has had many inflection points related to the transmogrification of human behavior. The latest what the hell? instance could be Chatroulette.
If the Internet is about the democratization of self-expression, then this is a pure form. It reduces all of the desperate and determined desire to be seen and heard and acknowledged to its essence.
Surveying the 16-year commercial history of the Internet, it might fairly be that this is what it comes down to.
The great struggle to normalize the medium, to pay no attention to what actually is going on behind the curtain, to stress what about it is good for all mankind, is rather hoisted on its own petard.
Chatroulette takes that most prosaic of Internet genres—chatting with strangers—and adds video to it. Odd that it took so long for someone to think of this. Cue, for the last time, the old New Yorker cartoon—from the days when people who read the New Yorker could speak condescendingly about such thing as chat rooms—about no one knowing if you're a dog on the Internet. Chatroulette is a form of speed dating in which a real-time figure appears on your screen (and you on his) who can be accepted or rejected, allowing you to move immediately on to the next. Chatroulette, which introduces (well, sort of introduces) people from diverse countries—even those in autocratic (and sexually repressed) lands, where Chatroulette does not seem to have been blocked yet—finds what curiously seems to be a common human interest.
Oh, and I use the word "people" in the purest Internet sense: 90% young men and 10% intrepid women.

Occupy the Blog! (2/20/2012)
11:20 am in Uncategorized by dakine01
You might have seen the post from Jane Hamsher inviting folks to the Tent Party on Saturday at Occupy Delaware. Here's a slideshow from the event:
Sure looks like the folks had a spot of fun, even though it also looks to have been a bit cold.
Since the last Occupy the Blog! we've received a number of reports from around the country; some with good news, some with not-so-good news; but all showing dedication and industry.
In the not-so-good news side of things, tobiasfox gave us the report on the eviction of Occupy Newark and a report on how Occupy Newark spent a $10K donation from #OWS and followed those with a report on sustainability:
People around the world are pushing for alternative energy as a means of becoming a more sustainable human society and we plan to show people how to do this at a minimal cost.
Under the guidance of electrical engineer Damian de Caires, people joining this working group will not only become more informed about alternative energy, but will also become technicians and assist with getting as many people off the grid as humanly possible.
From Occupy Nashville, we received reports from kyushukev as ON waits to be evicted, rallies for support, and waits some more to be evicted. Read the rest of this entry →

Another Sipdown from NofarS!
Every time I drink Yabao, it makes me think of a creamy bowl of steel cut oats with soymilk drizzled over the top. In the background is the taste of cedar or maybe pine, but only mildly.
Yabao is a tea that I don't really get excited about, or have cravings for, but then I make a cup once in awhile, & even though part of me is saying, "this is really boring", it's also really nice. Kind of like white tea, in a way. It's got a creamy texture to it, a bland milk-toast kind of character, but there is something homey & relaxing about it. I probably should have a cup more often.

This probably applies mostly to Canadians, but Botanus (out of BC) has put their gift certificates on at a discount. I take advantage of this, and use the g/c for sales the following year (although I just bought 396 on sale, I'm sure I'll find more bulbs I *need* for next year!) just wanted to pass on the deal to people who know Botanus.

It turns out that whenever students are feeling overwhelmed, that is the same period of the semester when the professor is experiencing the lightest load of work. Conversely, when students are able to relax, professors are smiling and sitting back, enjoying the reprieve.
I mention this because at this moment, I think that many of my professors are experiencing a lull in their work. How do I know this? BECAUSE EVERY STUDENT IS WORKING LIKE THERE'S NO MAÑANA!
It's what happens when there's a looming week long break. Professors give us all the work in the world to do before break, so that they get a nice week off to grade it. If there are any professors out there reading this, I sincerely thank you for not putting this work on the other end of the break, because how could we appreciate our week off if we were studying? On a related note, I'm sorry that you won't have as much free time as us during break.

It's about time! I'm sitting here chewing my nails off! Can you fast forward this thing to the end? I promise to go back and listen to it all.
Figured I'd pitch in here....
Welcome back to The WDW Radio Show - Your Walt Disney World Information Station, hosted by Lou Mongello. Thanks for tuning in once again. This is Show #6 for the week of March 18, 2007.
This week's show is chock full of fun segments that I think you'll enjoy, as well as some special guests, including the voice of WDWRadio, Jonathan Dichter for News & Views from WDW where we talk about some special events at WDW and we also visit the Walt Disney World Rumor Mill, where we discuss some more rumored rehabs for a few classic WDW attractions. We'll briefly touch on our training for the 1/2 marathon, and Jonathans fundraising efforts for the DreamTeam Project. I promised you more trivia, and this week Jeff Pepper and I take a look at another aspect of the Walt Disney World That Never Was, as we do another Disney Scene Investigation about a long-lost Disney character and his ties to the theme parks, Roger Rabbit. Finally, I get to announce and discuss the second of the 7 Wonders of Walt Disney World, in a segment in which we'll have lots of history and trivia, as well as a discussion of the past, present and future of this true wonder. As always, I want this show to continue to be interactive, so I'll answer a few of your emails before we end the show. I'll end the show with some very exciting updates and information on the Trivia Cruise aboard the Disney Magic in November with me and Margaret "Tinker Bell" Kerry, including a couple of surprise announcements for those of you who may be considering joining us on board. So since we have a lot to cover, sit back, relax, and join me on this weeks episode of the WDW Radio Show! View this week's show notes.
You can email the show at email@example.com or call our voicemail at 206-202-4WDW. Talk about the show by visiting and posting in the WDW Radio Show message forums at DisneyWorldTrivia.com.
Thanks for listening! Be sure to tune in next week!

Yeah, let me know what you think about the length... i actually had to cut an entire segment out that I had recorded for this week's show - otherwise it was closer to 2:45!!! (insert YIKES smilie)
Lou Mongello
Host, Author & Site Owner
I haven't listened to it yet, but I don't mind the length of the show! I sit in front of a computer for 40 hours a week, and podcasts are what keep me awake. So, if you want to extend the podcast to about 8-16 hours , I can fill in the rest of the time with other podcasts. I can't wait to listen to it tomorrow morning!
The Butabi brothers from Night at the Roxbury:
Doug Butabi: So anyways, I was standing there waiting to use the pay phone.
Steve Butabi: Yeah, he was, seriously.
Doug Butabi: And this guy who was on the phone, turns around and tips his hat like this.
Steve Butabi: And who do you think that guy was?
Doug Butabi: Lou Mongello.
Steve Butabi: The Disney World Trivia man, I swear to God, I was there.
Doug Butabi: Of course you were, you were the one who yelled the Podcaster's name.
Steve Butabi: I was like, "LOU!!!"
I don't mind the long time Lou! It's great... More stuff to keep me occupied with.
I'm an 1hr & 4 minutes in! Great show so far! I enjoyed the thing with Jeff.
Aly & AJ's Insomniatic- Now Available at all stores & Amazon.com!!!!
I don't mind the length Lou. I'd rather have the show flow correctly and be entertaining than to have it seemed rushed or thrown together willy nilly. I know some weeks will be long and some short.
To all who come to this happy place; welcome. Disneyland is your land. Here age relives fond memories of the past...and here youth may savor the challenge and promise of the future. Disneyland is dedicated to the ideals, the dreams and the hard facts that have created America...with the hope that it will be a source of joy and inspiration to all the world.
I don't mind the length! I loved this show! Awesome job, as always.

Since the WDW Radio Podcast only comes out once a week, 2 hour show is not a problem. Now that I have my new nano ipod, I can get back to where I left off should I hit the wrong button. There is so much information and trivia in these broadcasts, that 2 hours just flies by. Lou, the new program just keeps getting better and better. I have so much to research next month, and I'm really wishing I was going on the cruise.
mini-V What will you celebrate?
Adult daycare for the kid inside you.
I agree, with that kind of quality the show can't be too long!
And for the record my DS (6) and I both love Stitch!
Love the show and the length is great - the longer the better!! There is so much to learn and be entertained with!! The different segments keep getting better! And, boy do I feel sheepish (insert Genie here)!!! I thought the Wicked Witch WAS a real person!!!!
I seem to be a quiet minority here... I find the lengths rather, well, lengthy. I'm busy in all other aspects of life, and even when I'm sitting at the computer I'm usually working on medical records or business - which I learned is not podcast-tolerant environment. Don't get me wrong - quality is everything! And I'd rather have a 2hr 4min 41sec highly entertaining and informative show over a lesser one. I thought an hour was perfect - but then I live and die by the clock - and 1 hour is always easier for me to schedule than 2.
Oh well - since I am a runner, I guess my solution would be to get a fancy Nano or sumthin', then I could listen and learn along all those country miles. (I'll do the WDW Marathon or 1/2 someday - when I can get my schedule to cooperate... Next year I'll be there for a week long conference - a week AFTER the race weekend ).
The show is going great! I reallly enjoy listening. Two hours is great, as long as the quality of the show continues to be top notch, which it is.
Disney World is my Happy Place!

Hi Happy and the WDW Radio Running Team!
I have recently joined the team and I am training up for the next Princess Half-Marathon. Right now I am running about 3 miles 3 times a week at a pace of about 12 min/mile. I am working to stretch that out to a half-marathon distance using this plan, and I know I will need to do a little walking during the longer runs. My challenge is that I don't really know how to work the walking part in. I either wait too long and then have a hard time recovering or I walk too much and am not pushing myself enough. Also, once I start walking my running intervals get shorter and shorter.
Can you give me some advice on working this into my running so that I can work on those longer distances? My goal for the big race is just to finish. I am not trying to run the whole thing or get a good time (although I am looking to HAVE a good time- ha ha).
Thanks a bunch!!

Email Nick Pearce with the answer to this question: Should Alan Pardew keep his beard forever?
18.30 Right, hat's all we've got time for today. Thanks for all the mails and please have a read of the match report. Until next time...
WRAP Newcastle should rightly be furious after some pretty major decisions went against them. But did they offer enough to deserve to win the game? I'm not so sure. It would be great to discuss tactics and form but unfortunately the main talking point from that game was the sickening tackle by McManaman. It's depressing that none of the officials were able to spot it and dish out the necessary punishment. Wigan now 5/6 to stay up after that result and if they replicate that staying power they might just pull it off.
18.23 Wigan manager Roberto Martinez comes out to bat for Callum McManaman:
I haven't seen the replay but I believe he touches the ball and then it's a bad challenge. But it's nothing malicious. He's not a bad boy and the referee had a perfect position. I can guarantee that Callum McManaman is player of brilliant talent but not malicious. I know he wants to contact the player...and he will do that.
18.13 A mail from a very disappointed Angus:
The question is not whether a beard if kept. HALSEY must go! The worst decisions ever - Is it a matter of blindness , willful neglect or refereeing to order ! Three of the worst decisions since Nani was dismissed! DISGRACEFUL!! Very sad!! Disillusioned me!!
18.11 Newcastle manager Alan Pardew lets rip:
I'm disappointed for our team and Wigan in a way. It was disappointing how it was conducted. The tackle was awful. I've lost the game to a handball and I've got a boy going to hospital. The outlook's not good bencause the tackle was so bad. The referee apologised to say he missed it [the tackle]. He didn't explain why though.
I was in the changing room at the time so I don't know what went on there [with the half-time scuffle]. I do know what went on on the pitch though. In all honesty it's difficult to take and talk about this stage. My team put in an honest performance and has been very unlucky to come away with nothing.
The linesman should pick up the handball. The referee should know that's a handball. It's unbelievable. The decisions all seemed to go against us.
18.07 Everyone's having their say on the McManaman tackle. Here's former Liverpool coach Phil Thompson:
18.04 Newcastle's Ryan Taylor with some post-match analysis:
18.03 A mail from Neil:
AP should defo get rid of the beard.....he's starting to look like Roman Abramovich! Get it off Al!
18.00 Don't go anywhere...We have a furious Alan Pardew broadcast interview to relay for you.
17.58 Here's your up-to-date Premier League bottom half:
90+5 min Mark Halsey blows for full-time and the Annual Wigan Great Escape is on!
90+4 min Kone, with the ball at his feet in the Newcastle box, will be "tempted to go for a third" according to the Sky commentator. Well, quite. He shoots but his effort is saved and we'll have a corner.
90+2 min We're into the second of four added minutes with Newcastle desperately searching an equaliser. They've left themselves completely exposed at the back though! And Kone's away! He's got a clear sight on an unguarded net but the Newcastle defence scrambles back and puts him off his stride.
90 min: GOAL! WIGAN 2 - NEWCASTLE 1 (Kone) A playground goalmouth scramble ends with Kone bundling the ball home from a few inches out. There was an absolutely blatant handball from Figueroa in the build-up but Wigan don't care!
Yanga-Mbiwa clices a McCarthy cross out for a corner. He's pretty lucky, actually, as he was not in control of that ball. Could have gone anywhere.
88 min Newcastle camped in Wigan territory these last few minutes. Santon, like Di Santo earlier at the other end, does well to knock-down a cross into the box. But, once again, there's no-one making a run to compliment the flick and Wigan are able to get it clear.
86 min Cisse! So close! His near-post is effort is (probably) going in but Joel makes a smart save with his foot to divert the ball away from goal.
85 min Scharner clips a long ball towards Di Santo, who does brilliantly to knock the ball down. Unfortunately for Wigan no-one gambles and the ball is cleared to safety.
83 min My gut feeling is its a mug's game to make predictions based on your gut feeling. Newcastle are the masters of the late goal though....
81 min Di Santo, who must have one of the worst lids in the Premier League, is pinged for a foul on Tiote.
80 min Decent effort from Maloney lands on target but Elliot shuffles to his right to claim the goal-bound effort without breaking too much sweat.
79 min Perch mistimes his challenge on Beausejour and Wigan will have a handy free-kick to play with. Beausejour is substituted for Franco Di Santo before the kick.
78 min Here's one for all you Ameobi fans:
77 min Marveaux dinks a ball across the box but there's so much on it that even a man with legs as long as Shola Ameobi cannot control it. Goal-kick.
76 min Santon, on the overlap out wide, collects a Marveaux pass and puts a tasty ball into the box. Cisse mistimes his run and it trickles away from the Newcastle dangerman.
75 min A stat that will make grim reading for certain Wigan-supporting readers of this liveblog:
73 min Some Teletubbies in the away end are having a little boogie following that equaliser. Nervy times for Wigan as Newcastle sniff a winner.
72 min: GOAL! WIGAN 1 - NEWCASTLE 1 (Santon) Oh, lovely touch from Cisse! He pokes a long ball wide to Santon, who collects it, advances into the box and drills a low shot past Joel for a deserved equaliser.
69 min McArthur! He weaves his way through the Newcastle defence and tests Elliot with a decent, low effort. Corner. And it's Figueroa at the far post again! Goal-kick.
68 min Figueroa! He meets a corner at the far post, under little to no pressure, but misses the target. It seems inconsequential but that was a pretty good chance, you know.
66 min Gutierrez in the book for a foul. Maloney knew it was coming, Jonas knew it was coming and so did we all. But he couldn't resist sending the Wigan man tumbling with a tackle that you could probably classify as 'clumsy' and nothing more sinister. Shola Ameobi is on for Gouffran.
65 min Looks like Pardew is preparing to unleash Shola Ameobi on the final 25 minutes of the match. They're looking at a flipbook of tactics on the touchline.
64 min Marveaux breaks free and has Gouffran sprinting beyond him to the left. The pass is a poor one though, leaving Gouffran with far too much to do. He doesn't do it and fails to stop the ball going out for a goal-kick.
63 min Tiote the latest player to put a bit too much effort into a challenge. He escapes without a booking, though.
62 min Replacement McArthur sees some space open up ahead of him and he has a dip at goal. His effort takes a big deflection and loops out for a corner.
60 min Maloney advances towards the Newcastle goal with options to his left and right. He's so spoiled for choice that he ends up passing it to a Newcastle player. Waste for Wigan.
58 min McManaman substituted for McArthur by Wigan manager Roberto Martinez. The away fans hurl abuse at the departing Wigan midfielder, who looks just a little upset at what's unfolded today.
57 min Kone, with McManaman making a really good run on the overlap, lets fly from the edge of the area but the shot goes high and wide.
55 min Free-kick to Newcastle for a foul on Marveaux affords them a rare attacking opportunity, which Cisse uses (wastes?) to flash a shot high and wide of Joel's left post. Should have done better.
53 min Fellow injured Magpie Yohan Cabaye tweets some support:

No one NEEDS flash, sure its handy, but mostly for games and consumer crap, so get over that.. also as long as you don't "think" with your fingers, the on screen keyboard is fine... I can type almost as fast on the on screen as I can on a regular keyboard. Anyone complaining about the on screen just hasn't practiced much, or used it at all...

Hulu plus is presently pretty weak. The content is not the same as the free version, being that some of the networks haven't changed over the Html5 I suppose, but still you should be able to see everything on your pad that you can see online at the very least...
I know its beta atm, but its really weak, hard to navigate and once you find a show your only option is to subscribe... What if I want to browse around and tag stuff to watch later like (gulp) netflix... What if I am subscribed to show X and there is another new release in the library, wouldn't it be great if Hulu suggested the show for you like (gulp) netflix?
Yes, I am subscribing to both, no I'm not sure that will change. I'm not sold on Hulu being something I will continue with, but will be sure and comment more here

I live in Michigan, and while it is slowly warming up, the average temp is only 40-50 degrees. It was like 20 deg. this morning. So I was surprised to find one baby koi in my pond today. I haven't started feeding my adult koi yet since the water is still so cold; I usually don't start feeding them until at least the end of April/beginning of May when it warms up here. Does the baby need to be fed?
Is it normal to have baby koi in March? I thought June was the month for that to happen. It is about 2 1/2" long, will the adult koi eat it? I've only had my pond for 3 years, so I've never had any babies before, and honestly didn't think I would, since they eat the eggs. Thanks for your help, I have never posted here before, I am usually on the mosaic boards. Judy |

It's too early for it to have come from this years spawn. They probably won't be spawning for several weeks yet. At 2 1/2" it was probably hatched last summer. |

In all fairness. Lindsay Lohan has proven herself to be far more responsible and capable of self-government than have the majorities and leadership in either chamber of the U.S. Congress.
Perhaps they ought to take a long, long recess and put her in charge of the Constitutional duties they've shown themselves incapable of discharging.

Acanthosis nigricans is a skin condition in which brown or black velvet-like markings appear under the arms, in the groin, or on the back of the neck. Any skin fold can be affected, including the lower lip and chin.
Causes of acanthosis nigricans may include:
- High insulin levels in people who are obese
- A family history of acanthosis nigricans
- A cancerous tumor—rare
Risk Factors
Acanthosis nigricans is more common in people of African-American decent. Other factors that increase your chances of getting acanthosis nigricans include:
- Being overweight
- Type 2 diabetes
- Polycystic ovary syndrome
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
You will be asked about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.
Your bodily fluids may be tested. This can be done with:
- Skin biopsy
- Blood tests
Your bodily structures may need to be viewed. This can be done with:
- X-rays
- Endoscopy
Treatment often involves treating the underlying cause. For example, if acanthosis nigricans is due to obesity, weight loss can improve the skin condition.
Topical and oral retinoids and other medications have been reported to improve appearance in some cases. They help remove excess layers of skin.
To reduce your chances of getting acanthosis nigricans, take these steps:
- Maintain a healthy weight
- Eat a balanced diet
- Get regular exercise most days of the week
- Talk to your doctor about your blood sugar levels

Save the Hackney Empire
The Hackney Empire has been a key cultural icon in London for over a hundred years. It is closing its main stage for around 9 months in January as part of a restucture to turn around its financial prospects. We recognise the assistance to date given to the theatre by the London Borough of Hackney and also by the Arts Council and welcome their continued support. We call on all those involved to work together to ensure that the theatre reopens in 2010 as a successful and viable venue that continues to serve the people of Hackney and London as a whole.

Every Friday, we excerpt some of the most insightful, articulate, interesting, and entertaining comments we receive each week. Think we've missed something? Well…comment! (Some comments shown here have been edited.)
Lou and Me
Ex-Chicago Tribune scribe Don Terry's essay on his departure from the newspaper business—and how the Lou Grant television show helps him cope—prompted a mix of sympathy, criticism, and career advice.
"Don: I took a buyout, so I jumped and didn't get pushed. I did a blog and it didn't feel like either reporting or writing. Mostly I hated it. I'm writing a book and the loneliness is beyond description. Much to be grateful for, yes. But, they also tell me this grief thing takes two years. If that's true I have 4 months left. Oy. The one mantra that works, for me, is that what I miss, every day, no longer exists. With the New York Times, that's a physical as well as a "spiritual" fact. I miss 43rd street. I wish I'd thought of watching "Lou Grant" under the covers. A reminder that we had "it," however you define "it" at the best and brightest time. All best, Jane"
—jane gross
"It's nice to see my feelings in print, attributed to someone else. It belies the silent accusations that bitterness spurs my criticisms of the newspaper that laid me off 10 months ago. I was in the second wave, which got 15 people, only three of whom were under 50. The managing editor, who made the picks, prefers younger people for more than the obvious reasons. Since I was downsized/right-sized/laid off/axed/fired/booted, he has hired two new college grads and four interns. I can't help but see my newspaper in one description - "dumb in the content they put in the paper, dumb in trying to appeal to the wrong audience, dumb in the way they market themselves." I'm sad for the demise of what was a good, solid paper, and also sad for myself, that someone could take my career, my passion away from me just because he liked younger, more impressionable people. I try to read the paper but too often there's too little in it. Now that I no longer work there, people feel free to tell how irrelevant they find it to their lives. That's how it goes, I guess. But it's not bad to be lumped in with Lou Grant et al."
—beverly a
"Don, this is like something out of The Onion. Come on, Lou Grant was a TV show. It's like a World War II vet taking solace in John Wayne movies. Lou's world never existed. It was made up, just the like the sad story you're now buying into about your career/life. It's all in your head. Forget Lou Grant, and create a new, positive story about your life. It will work. You'll feel better. I promise. By the way, you're a really good writer."
"Don, thank goodness you wrote this essay — how else would you get the unsolicited career advice I'm sure you've been dreaming of?
"Folks, whether you like how he's spent the past year or not isn't the issue. This is a thoughtful piece of writing; bittersweet, creative, well-crafted. The sort of thing I wish I found in newspapers on a regular basis, but don't anymore. I'm glad Don found an outlet for such work elsewhere."
—Emily Achenbaum Harris
Megan Garber wrote about "Radiohead journalist" Paige Williams' self-funded piece, "Finding Dolly Freed," and Williams's request that readers donate what they can so that she recoup the cost of producing the piece. So how well does this model work?
"I thought this was an interesting experiment. I especially liked the comparison to Radiohead (the greatest band of the last 20 years - not an opinion - it's a fact!).
"I do think the retrospective model has its merits. In the end, just like Spot.Us - I don't think it's a silver bullet or THE solution.
"While Spot.Us has raised as much as 10k before (and tomorrow we are going to put up our third 10k ambitious sized pitch) - the average pitch, as you note, is several hundred dollars (between 5-7). That can be decent money for some - and chump change for others. All depends on your point of view.
"But since it's arguable - I don't think retrospective donations (or prospective) can sustain an entire individual's career.
"But just as Radiohead gets kudos - so does Paige. It takes a LONG time to get 1,000 true fans - but if she can do it - she will have something to stand on. Or so says Kevin Kelly (part of the inspiration for Spot.Us is his theory of 1,000 true fans: http://www.kk.org/thetechnium/archives/2008/03/1000_true_fans.php ).

Like, why you let babies get shot while babies is killin'?
from Vic Mensa (Ft. Beldina & Rockie Fresh) – Time Is Money Lyrics on Genius
Probably a reference to the little baby Jonylah Watkins who got killed earlier this year when a gunman approached her and opened fire.
The last part of that line is referring to how young gangbangers in Chicago are, killing other youth in their antics.

The term "assault rifle" is a misleading term. It is being applied to rifles owned by law abiding civilians simply because they "look" similar to those used by the military.
Military functioning machine guns are already illegal to own (without significant permits, etc.). Socialist democrats know this, which is why they focus on the gun's appearance instead of how it functions. If you put a "pistol grip" on your daddy's rifle, they deem it an "assault rifle" and will try to get it banned. It is simply an excuse to take away your gun.
Fear is a great motivator. Using a fear of self-inflicted violence, leaders disarm their subjects. To evoke the maximum fear possible, Obama posed with defenseless children. In every recent poll, gun control rated almost last as an issue of concern to Americans.
By going after a fundamental American right, however, Obama is shifting the public's attention from more important issues, like the raging debt crisis, out of control spending, and rising unemployment.
The purpose of the 2nd Amendment was not to protect "hunting" rights. It was to protect the average American's ability to fight an oppressive government or an invading army. So, the next time you see Ms. Feinstein, President Obama, or any other member of our socialist government posing in front of a wall of weapons, remember, they are just trying to scare you. Again, fear is a great motivator.
When coupled with ignorance and apathy, fear can be devastating.

I'v e heard of sharp breast pain in one breast or both being connected to breastfeeding during pregnancy. And that was my experience as well.
With my first pregnancy, I had sore breasts but no sharp pain. But with my second, when I was still nursing my first, I had sharp pains. I wound up weaning due to decreased milk supply and I had sharp pains both before and after weaning.
I remember reading Adventures in Tandem Nursing, which *everyone* who is pregnant and nursing should read. One lady in the book was nursing a two-year-old and she developed very sharp pains while nursing. It turns out the little girl was nursing even though the milk had dried up *completely.* She really didn't want to wean. It was a hard time for both of them, but they got through it! Not sure if the sharp pains are more common during pregnancy with breastfeeding or if that was just my personal experience.

Please Note: There will be no camping in or around the grounds in the lead up to Xfest or on the day.
Two enthusiastic music lovers have joined together to create a company that will aim bring special events with a host of different music styles to the heart of rural Dumfriesshire.
Paul Murray has been performing in many live rock bands throughout his career. Malcolm Tudhope has been DJing for over 20 years. From bars and clubs to large scale staged events. Both came up with the idea of not just bringing music styles together, but bringing people and communities together and helping charities who really need help along the way.
Kirsty Young will be ensuring all the i's are dotted, the t's are crossed and that our cash flow moves in the right direction.
Glen Davidson will be overseeing events as site manager, ensuring things run smoothly in the run up to our events and on the day itself.
Roy Wilson makes sure our online presence is current. Facebook, Twitter and our website are in capable hands. He also assists Malcolm and Paul in searching the lands for bands and DJ's.
Sound Force is proud to present Xfest 2015. This event will be supporting Help for Heroes and The Euan MacDonald Centre for Motor Neurone Disease Research in the hope that money raised will benefit people who are in need and also aid research into a cruel and debilitating disease.
Did you know all our profits go to charity?

Probiotic Blends
Why Take Probiotics?
Most degenerative disease conditions can be linked to intestinal toxemia and our inability to properly eliminate it from the body. By allowing toxins to remain in the body for an extended period of time, they begin to affect all bodily functions. The process of autointoxication is simply one where the body is unable to rid itself of the accumulated toxins before they are absorbed back into the body.
The over use of antibiotics, coupled with the consumption of chlorinated water, alcohol, and the preservatives in food, has compromised our body's ability to maintain proper intestinal flora equilibrium. Without these natural defenders to guard against pathogenic organisms, we can become susceptible to a wide range of health problems that affect all other bodily processes. By replenishing the healthy intestinal flora on a regular basis we can help the body fight off invading bacterial organisms and improve our overall quality of life.
In a healthy intestinal tract, there reside approximately 400 different kinds of microorganisms. Due to their inability to withstand an acidic environment, not many are found in the stomach. As we move on to the small intestine, the number of bacteria increases by a factor of 10, and by the time we get to the colon, there are almost a billion times more than found in the small intestine. All of the Probiotics we offer work together to help maintain proper intestinal function. Good bacteria aid in; acidifying the colon (maintain pH between 6.7 and 6.9); normalizing bowel movement; improving immune function; producing vitamins; producing lactase (for lactose intolerance); removing toxic wastes; reducing cholesterol; and reducing or eliminating gas problems.
Establish a Healthy Intestinal Biomass
Many conditions today can cause damage to, or even the destruction of the normal healthy bacterial flora of the body. Damage to healthy microorganisms can lead to an overgrowth of harmful bacteria, yeast and viruses. This can lead to stress on the organs of elimination and the immune system.
How They Function
In order for pathogenic organisms to establish themselves in the colon, they must first be able to adhere to the epithelial wall receptor sites. These sites provide a location for the growth of bad bacteria, and provide a proliferation area for increased colony growth. When there are sufficient "friendly bacteria", these appear to bind to the same receptor sites, thereby denying a location for negative organisms.
Probiotic Blend
Our unique patented Probiotic Blend is a powerful combination of specially stabilized, cultured microorganisms called Lactobacillus Salivarius and Lactobacillus Plantarum -OM. These friendly bacteria flourish in the small intestine and offer many benefits. Unlike other supplemental bacteria products, Lactobacilli -OM requires a very special culturing process and has been classified as a novel strain. Developed after many years of research, the OM strain of Lactobacilli truly marks a new level of achievement in bacterial supplementation.
Special Properties
The microorganisms in the Probiotic Blend are classified as novel in comparison with other Lactobacillus because they are the only strain found to be proteolytic, meaning the OM probiotics are very active on proteins as well as the by-products of protein putrefaction. This allows the bacteria to accomplish the breakdown of undigested proteins, making nutrition readily available to the body while helping to render potential toxins inert. In considering that viruses and bacteria are encased in a protein shell, our bacteria has the ability to directly attack pathogenic organisms.
This strain is also prolific in almost any environment, doubling the population of viable organisms every 20 minutes. This creates substantial savings to the cost-conscious consumer. Unlike other products that require as many as 12 capsules or several grams daily to achieve only minimal results, the recommended dosage is two to four capsules daily. Although some may prefer six or more capsules daily if they feel extremely toxic, this is only necessary for a short time, after which two to four capsules daily is plenty to maintain beneficial effects. Most consumers will realize a 30 to 50% savings by using our Probiotic Blend.
Pro-5 Probiotic:
This formulation is ideal for intestinal maintenance. In addition to the friendly intestinal bacterium, L. Plantarum- OM and L. Salivarius, this formula contains L. Acidophilus, B. Bifidus, and B. Subtillis, along with the herb hyssop. The additional probiotic strains in this formula naturally reside in the large intestine and can be beneficial in maintaining proper intestinal balance.

Three of the biggest wine-marketing WTFs!
If you're a woman and you love wine, then you must be a complete idiot.Wine marketing that panders to women makes us say "WTF?"
That's the only logical conclusion we were able to draw after stumbling upon a slew of borderline misogynistic marketing ploys to influence our (since we are most assuredly a "she") wine-purchasing decisions. With some research claiming that women are responsible for 80 percent of the wine purchased for home consumption, it's no wonder that some brands will push any crazy "girlie" wine idea they can dream up in order to get their hands into our wine kitty. We can certainly appreciate that there is some subset of our demographic that is seeking -- to put it nicely -- "softer" messaging about wine, which for too long has been largely targeted to men. But on behalf of our wine-loving gender, we simply must call bullshit on these overly sexist and, in one case, downright misleading wine-marketing concepts. Turn the page for three marketing ploys so egregious, we had to say "WTF!?"

- Four lucious white wines to savor now
- Four fall-worthy red wines to fall in love with
Wine In a Volére Wine Couture -- it's both a beverage and a fashion accessory. Box Purse: Does any winemaker seriously believe women are so vapid that they'd like to treat their wine as a fashion accessory? Apparently the folks behind Volére Wine Couture think just that. Frankly, we find ourselves feeling less than enthusiastic about a wine producer whose website lists its wine's "fashion forward design" as a primary descriptor. Lucky women can choose between three equally stylish varieties of purses -- a pinot grigio, a merlot or a rosé -- to take to their next jewelry party or scrapbooking session, since the purse is (surprise!) actually a resealable 1.5 liter box. Actually, that may be the only thing we like about these wines, since we favor eco-friendly options -- just not the kind that make us look and feel like a kid playing dress up.
They Cannot Be Serious: Finally! Wine-loving women around the world can breathe a sigh of relief, because someone was smart enough to develop a set of wines designed specifically to suit a woman's "ever-changing world" and "pair with our personalities." But wait, it gets better. According to the thoughtful cats behind Be. Wines, there's always a perfect bottle to go along with a wide array of fashion and activity choices. And since we women are such fey, fickle creatures, the brand has come up with four wines to address our unique, ever-changing natures: There's Be. Fresh, a chardonnay that's "an ode to serendipity"; Be. Flirty, a pink moscato, a wine "inspired by a perfect blend of confidence and playfulness with a delightful finish of fun"; Be. Bright, a pinot grigio "full of light and lovely whimsical wisdom complemented by the perfect touch of unforgettable charm"; and Be. Radiant, a riesling with flavors that "linger like that perfect evening that still floods your daydreams with sly smiles." And that's not all. The oh-so-clever pairing utility allows us to pick the two -- um, accessories? -- that best align with our mood, which in turn will help us decide which wine to drink. Choose "stiletto" and "cookie" (because we're always rocking sky-high heels while nibbling delicately on macarons), and you discover that the ideal wine to sip on just such an occasion is the flirty-licious moscato. If you're the kind of girl who's more the "tambourine" and "lasso" type, the genius recommendation is riesling. Be. wines gives women the chance to pair their wines with their... outfits?!

I Almost Didn't Leave the House Because I *Was* Wearing Makeup
When I'm not mommy-ing or writing for Kveller, I am writing other forms of comedy or performing stand-up.
I was recently asked to shoot an episode of an online comedy show called "Headline Punchline"–a talking heads showcase where five comics are given five headlines the night before filming and are asked to write up punchlines for them. It's very fun, and very stressful. But hey, I'm one of those sickies who actually works well under pressure.
The day of shooting, my wonderful husband took an extra-long lunch so that I could make myself look like a person presentable for the camera and less like a walking napkin. I did my hair and makeup and found clothes that weren't covered in toddler-mess.

WASHINGTON -- President Barack Obama is proposing yet another version of health care reform.
The president is sketching out a few areas where he says Democrats should paste Republican proposals onto the health care bills already passed with overwhelming Republican opposition.
Obama sent congressional leaders a letter previewing his Wednesday speech and highlighting a reach out to Republicans.
"In it he spelled out areas of agreement that had emerged from last Thursday's meeting," House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said. "Not that they were new, but he emphasized common ground in keeping costs down and fighting waste, fraud and abuse."
A More Sinister Motive?
Obama says he's ready to incorporate Republican priorities like reducing the huge costs of medical malpractice suits and expanding health savings accounts.
However, Republican leaders say just because the president is giving them a nod that won't buy their votes.
They believe he's just trying to woo wavering conservative Democrats by trying to make the massive reform appear more bipartisan.
They said the real plan is to shove a reform bill through the Senate with a simple majority vote, not giving the GOP minority a chance to stop it with a filibuster.
Even some Democrats doubt that maneuver, called reconciliation, will fly as it's only supposed to be used for budget matters, not for a more significant issue like health care reform that affects a sixth of the American economy.
"It won't work," Sen. Kent Conrad, D-N.D., told CBS' Face the Nation. "It won't work because it was never designed for that kind of significant legislation."
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., says if the Democrats ram through reform with tricky parliamentary maneuvers, the GOP will make it the top issue in every congressional race this year.
Talk like that is why Pelosi doesn't seem sold the president's reach out to Republicans will work.
"Could be some hope for some bipartisanship as we go forward, and I wish him well with that," she said.
Republicans insist they still want to work on health care, but only if Congress and the White House start from scratch, dumping the liberal measures the GOP simply can't abide -- and polls show the public rejects.

Japanese Wrist Phone: Big Brother is Watching You Slack Off
It looks like nightmares are becoming a reality for the Japanese. A new cell phone from KDDI, that's packaged attractively as a wrist phone, will be able to tell if you're slacking off at work. It will then rat you out to your boss!
This is definitely some Orwellian technology. The phone's accelerometer is sensitive enough to track the movements of your arm. If don't move a lot, the phone will report you to your boss.
KDDI claims that it can tell if you're walking, going up stairs, or cleaning. It will also tell if you are taking a snooze, spending time idling. I can just imagine the situation. A new salary-man gets a job and to top things off, he gets a brand new wristphone watch. A month later, he's informed that he lost his job because he wastes too much time doing nothing. No thanks.

Here are a few video clips on how to try different formations when serving. Try it out and let me know how it works. Change Ups and Surprise are keys to holding serve. MOVE and DISTRACT are other objectives.
Here is a video clip descsribing a special play that illustrates the basic Dynamite Doubles System in a simple yet very precise way:
To build a Dynamite Doubles partnership you want to begin by looking at the court much like a road map with zones and targets. The zones tell you where you are, how to defend the oncoming shot, which shot to hit and where to move after your shot.
The goal is to get in the same major zone with your partner so you together can defend any shot from the opponents and to minimize the gap between you.
The targets help decide which shot to hit based on whether you are on the defensive or the offensive. 1,2,3 and 4 are referred to as TRIANGLES and the space in the middle of those triangles is the DIAMOND. Diamond shots are power shots and meant to decrease any angles coming back whereas triangles are used to get out of trouble, to build up a point and to increase the angles.
To learn more about these crucial points for Dynamite Doubles sign up for the free tips and of course buy the Dynamite Doubles book for guaranteed help on your doubles game!

Reports today claim that Liverpool have a 'keen interest' in the Belgian international, who has put in a raft of impressive performances this season, and is currently third Premier League clean-sheets league. £10m
With interest rising, Sunderland boss Martin O'Neill wants to tie £10m-rated Mignolet down to a new contract ASAP, and he reiterated this in an interview with the Shields Gazette this week. He said:
"Simon still has two more years left to run on his current contract, but we would like to do something and that is something I want to push forward. If anyone deserves a new deal this season it is Simon, without a doubt. He has been fantastic for us."
Earlier this week, Mignolet's representative, Guy Vandermissen hinted that the 24-year old is thinking about a move away. He told ATV:
"Our ambition is for Simon to play somewhere that he can engage in competition with Thibaut Courtois for the place in goal for Belgium. Courtois is fortunate that he is playing for a team that has been doing well lately."
In statement on Sunderland's official website, Mignolet moved to clarify his Vandermissen's comments, claiming they'd be 'taken out of context. He noted:
"Things change quickly. All those clubs I am linked with, if I make a mistake on Saturday, I will be un-linked straight away. It will be the exact opposite and that's why I don't really get fussed about it"
In an interview earlier this week, O'Neill compared Mignolet with two of the British game's greatest every goalkeepers. He told Sky Sports:
"I've played with Pat Jennings and Peter Shilton and he's got a similar approach to both. He [Mignolet] is still very young and he's got a similar mentality to those two, if he ends up having half the career of those two I'll be ecstatic"
Pepe Reina put in a superb performance today in Liverpool's 4-0 hammering of Wigan Athletic, but the Spaniard has struggled for consistency this season, and excellent performances are the exception rather than the rule this season.
Ali Al-Habsi - another Liverpool target - didn't have much luck today, and I think it's safe to predict that he'll soon be scrubbed off the Reds' wanted list.
Earlier this week, Mignolet was named 2012 North East Football Writers' Association's player of the year. Possible summer signing?

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.
