No Reports Of Shootings, Stabbings or Slashings On Monday In NYC. Its A Celebration Bitches!
NYDN – No news really is good news — not a single person was reported shot, stabbed or slashed in New York City on Monday, police sources said. The shutout seemingly caught the NYPD by suprise, as officials were almost at a loss to explain it. "Nice way to start the week," said Deputy Commissioner Paul Browne, the NYPD's top spokesman. Neither Browne nor other officials could remember the last time a day ended with three zeros.
Well hot dog! Would you look at that! Not one MurderDeathKill this Monday. Lets pop the fucking champagne! Tossing up 3 zeroes like a its a perfect game. No runs, no hits, no errors. No shootings, stabbings or slashings. Now I'm sure there was about 10,000 bums who froze to death overnight. Not sure how many people got beat to death. I'd imagine they are still counting the bodies from Jets fan suicides. I'm sure Bloomberg has the statistics on how many people overdosed from soda and salt. But for that made up 24 hour period nobody got shot or stabbed and that big news around these parts. Stop the presses – the NYPD tossed a shutout. New York's Finest indeed!

Guidance and patterning of axons are orchestrated by cell-surface receptors and ligands that provide directional cues. Interactions between the Robo receptor and Slit ligand families of proteins initiate signaling cascades that repel axonal outgrowth. Although the vascular and nervous systems grow as parallel networks, the mechanisms by which the vascular endothelial cells are guided to their appropriate positions remain obscure. We have identified a putative Robo homologue, Robo4, based on its differential expression in mutant mice with defects in vascular sprouting. In contrast to known neuronal Robo family members, the arrangement of the extracellular domains of Robo4 diverges significantly from that of all other Robo family members. Moreover, Robo4 is specifically expressed in the vascular endothelium during murine embryonic development. We show that Robo4 binds Slit and inhibits cellular migration in a heterologous expression system, analogous to the role of known Robo receptors in the nervous system. Immunoprecipitation studies indicate that Robo4 binds to Mena, a known effector of Robo-Slit signaling. Finally, we show that Robo4 is the only Robo family member expressed in primary endothelial cells and that application of Slit inhibits their migration. These data demonstrate that Robo4 is a bona fide member of the Robo family and may provide a repulsive cue to migrating endothelial cells during vascular development.

Chotti Bahu is an Indian television soap opera that aired on Zee TV between 2008 and 2012. The show had two seasons titled Chotti Bahu – Sindoor Bin Suhagan and Chhoti Bahu - Sawar Ke Rang Rachi.
The series became very popular in countries like Mauritius, West Indies, Romania, USA, Trinidad, Malaysia and South Africa. Chotti Bahu season one currently reruns in Zee Anmol in India and Zee Lamhe in the UK.
Dubbed version of the serial was telecast in Tamil language as Chinna Marumagal in Zee Tamil. It was remade in Telugu language as Chinna Kodalu which aired on Zee Telugu.
Choti Bahu - Sinduur Bin Suhagan (Hindi: छोटी बहू - सिंदूर बिन सुहागन) is an Indian television drama-series that aired on Zee TV channel and focuses on the youngest daughter-in-law, a great devotee of the Hindu god Krishna (often referred in the serial as "Kanha"). The serial also focuses on the vices of the Hindu caste system while glorifying the spirituality of the bonds of marriage.[1] The series was scheduled to premiere on November 10, 2008, but was delayed until December 8, 2008 due to the "Indian Television Strike" that began on November 9, 2008.[2] The show ended on 17 September 2010.
Set in Vrindavan, Choti Bahu focussed on the trials, tribulations[3] and sacrifices of Radhika, the youngest daughter-in-law of the Purohit family and the adopted daughter of a priest. As a baby, Rhadika was found abandoned on the steps of a temple in the town of Vrindavan. She was adopted by Brij Mohan Shastri, a saintly priest, and his meek wife Devaki. Radhika grew up with Shastri's daughter, Vishakha. Both the girls were of the same age. Shastri's aged mother resented Rhadika and always treated her badly while indulging Vishakha. As a result, Vishakha grew up into a wilful, selfish and pampered brat. Radhika was a great devotee of Lord Krishna. Yet, because her true parentage was unknown, the orthodox people of Vrindavan did not permit her to enter temples. She was dutiful and patient. Vishakha often took advantage of Radhika's good nature to cover up her mistakes.
The Purohit family was a wealthy and powerful clan based in Delhi. The head of the family was the hereditary priest of a large and influential religious organization. Dev was the youngest son of the incumbent priest and a favourite with nearly everyone in the family, especially his grandmother. The Purohit family visited Vrindavan and here Dev saw Radhika for the first time. He fell in love with her at first sight. Owing to some confusion, he got the impression that her name was Vishakha. The Purohit family visited Shastri's house and asked for Vishakha's hand in marriage. Dev and Vishakha were engaged but, true to the traditions of their families, they did not meet face-to-face. Meanwhile, Vishakha found an opportunity to audition for a film role, which was a dream come true for her. On the day of her wedding, Vishakha went away for the audition and asked Radhika to cover up her absence till her return. Because of some unforeseen circumstances, Vishakha could not return in time. Therefore, it was Radhika who went through the wedding rituals with Dev. Radhika's face was veiled in keeping with tradition. The truth was only known to Shastri's mother and Devaki. Vishakha returned after the conclusion of all the rituals.
Chhoti Bahu - Sawar Ke Rang Rachi (Hindi: छोटी बहू) is the second season of an Indian television dramas series It focuses on the lives of Radhika and Dev and is a different story than the first season. It has a different storyline and even some characters except for Dev and Radhika which are played by Avinash Sachdev and Rubina Dilaik respectively. However, this season of the show didn't became as popular as the first one [4]
Radhika, a Brahmin by birth, was adopted and brought up by a family of weavers in a small town. Dev visited the town with his family, met Radhika and became good friends. One day, while Radhika and Dev playing in a temple, they reached a place where 50 couples were getting married. Dev rubbed sindoor on Radhika's forehead, which she had gotten on her head by accident. This caused them to get married without their knowledge. When a priest who witnessed Dev and Radhika's "wedding" comes to Radhika's home and tells her parents that Radhika is married, Radhika tries to tell Dev this but is unable to meet him again.
After 12 years
This article's plot summary may be too long or excessively detailed. (April 2012) |
One night after college, Radhika meets Dev. Radhika feels bad that she is attracted to someone else. Later on, she finds out that Dev is the one she had married as a child and tells him the truth. Under obligations, he tells her to marry Rohan. He refuses.
A fire starts and Rohan gets badly burned. Dev meets Radhika in the hospital and asks her what caused the fire. She tells him that Rohan knows that she loves someone else. Radhika decides to get into their house as the choti bahu and wife of Dev.
The family accepts Dev and Radhika's relationship. However, everyone calls Radhikha an unchaste woman. To end this problem, Dadaji calls off Dev's marriage with Radikha and fixes it with Barkha. On the eve of Barkha and Dev's wedding, Barkha lies to Radikha that she has told Dadaji about what happened 12 years ago. Radhika therefore dresses up in Barkha's wedding dress and takes the wedding vows with Dev.
Radhika obediently performs all the duties of a choti bahu. Barkha puts sleeping powder in Dev's juice, causing him to become unconscious. Barkha then reveals that she loves Dev and Radhika overhears everything. Barkha murders Radhika. In a twist, Radhika returns after a month, but this time is different — she has become confident and fearless. This is because Kanha, the god Radhika is devoted to, has disguised himself as Radhika to put an end to Barkha's crimes, as Dev is made only for Radhika.
The rest of the story tells how Kanha teaches Barkha her lesson. One day, when Kanha is at home as Radhika, Dev asks her if she's alright. Radhikha asks why, and Dev tells her he saw her outside the temple begging for help. This is actually the real Radhika, who was reborn after Barkha tried to suffocate her. Dev is later poisoned by a juice that Barkha got originally for Radhika, and the family believes Radhika did it. Barkha repeatedly tries to get Radhika out of the house.
Then the real Radhika comes in the house. However, Kahna helps Radhika throughout everything. Barkha tries to murder Radhika again, but Dev stops her. The entire family then appears and disgraces Barkha, finally knowing her true nature. However, as Radhika faints, Barkha flees and successfully escapes. Later in the day, while Radhika and Dev go into the forest, Barkha tries to kill both of them, thinking that if she can't have Dev, no one can. However, everyone thinks she dies instead. The monastery was being taken by the bharawaj family which was however Radhikas real family. Ruby wants to kill Radhika even though she is her twin sister and that is the reason why she wants to kill her. Radhika and Dev both go to Mumbai to radhika's house but Dev feels uncomfortable when they get an unwelcoming welcome from Ruby. Ruby and Jolly (Rubys brother who loves her so much) try to make a plan to throw Dev and radhika out of the house. When everyone comes to the party and Radhika finds out that everyone was using her to get the monastery land and humiliate her husband she severs all ties with them and try to find krishnas idol and leave but kanha comes and tell Radhika she has to stay back alone because of the battle against right and wrong. Radika stays back but Dev and her in laws get mad at her and Radhika s family think that she did that for money and she became greedy. In the morning Radikha was doing a puja without an idol and ruby comes but she is not her self but an evil spirit comes and possessed her body and "Ruby" strangles Radhika but doesn't succeed. Radhika thinks that there is a bad omen when the mirror shatters and the curtains flow when the windows are closed. In the middle of the night Ruby suddenly enters the purohit house in Dev and Radhika s room. The spirit ruby faints after seeing kanha's photo. Dev is confused and the family.the next morning Ruby s family come to pick her up but the spirit comes in her and she says that she wants to stay and says that the monastery will stay with her. Then after a few incidents Radhika and Dev find out that Ruby is possessed by an evil spirit and the priest says that either Ruby or Radhika have to live but to take away the evil spirit radhika must go to a cave that leads to the world of death. she has to get an antidote that will take the evil spirit out of ruby's body. Radhika faces snakes and poisonous plants. She survives by praying to Kanha . At home sonia (Radhika's step-mother aunt), Rb (Radhika and Ruby s father), and Jolly think Dev is talking rubbish when he tells them that ruby is possessed by an evil spirit and she cant get out of the house. Sonia thinks that this is an opportunity to get the bharadwaj property and ruby would die. Jolly tells Ruby who is suffering that Dev is talking rubbish and takes off Kanha's locket to protect ruby then the spirit comes in ruby and kicks Jolly out. Jolly is shocked and so is the family. Radhika gets the antidote and tries to give it to ruby but the spirit flies and Tries to kill ruby radhika saves ruby .

Dev completely forgets about his marriage and Radhika as he grows into an adult. However, destiny helps him meet Radhika when she is selected as the bride for Rohan.
Radhika was adopted by Mansaram after her mother's death. An ardent follower of Krishna, Radhika was married off to Dev in her childhood. Radhika is selected as the bride for Rohan and after marriage becomes the Choti Bahu of the Purohit family. Radhika is unaware of the fact the Dev, the Purohit's domestic help, is her real husband. She feels a spiritual connect with Dev at their first meeting. Radhika discovers the fact that Dev is her first husband but is unable to reveal it to him.

There is no question that final passage of the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act is a positive outcome for our many brothers and sisters who are still suffering from the after-effects of that tragic day in New York City almost 10 years ago.
The arduous process of getting this obviously "right to do" legislation through Congress to President Obama's pen, however, illustrates the challenges faced by firefighters, and fire departments, at every level of government during this unprecedented fiscal climate.
We may still be considered America's heroes.
But in a time when everyone is struggling to make ends meet, nothing is guaranteed.
We owe it to ourselves, and those we serve, to get informed about the public policy process and become credible, effective, and hardworking advocates for fire protection and emergency services in our communities.

Fractal Design Core 3000 review -
Product Showcase
When we flip around the unit we can see the side panel a little better. Very simple with a mesh where you can install an additional fan. There are a total of 7 fan slots (1x 120mm + 1x 140mm in front, 2x 120/140mm in top, 1x 120mm in bottom, 1x 120mm in rear, 1x 120/140mm in side panel). Three fans have been pre-installed.
The panel can be removed be removing two thumbnails at the back and then pull it towards you, it is the old traditional way of chassis panel removal. The size of the chassis by the way is is chassis is just 200x480x430mm with a Net weight of 7,1kg.
The backside then. Next to the rear IO we spot a 120mm fan. All three fans in this chassis can be PWM fan controlled as the Core 3000 has that little fan controller delivered with it, so you can go really silent or choose for maximum performance at the cost of noise. The Core 3000 has 7 card slots and all the way at the top we spot two grommet holes, these could be used for some sort of external liquid cooling.
Here we can see the left side panel, with the same locking mechanism. Two thumbscrews at the rear secure it down. The matte black paintjob is very sensitive to scratches by the way. We had to carefully place the chassis on it's side, and after placing it back... scratches *sighs*

The Spanish Football Federation are reportedly keen to sign Vicente del Bosque to a new contract beyond the 2014 World Cup.
Del Bosque agreed to stay on utnil the end of the competition in Brazil last summer, in signing a two-year deal just before Euro 2012 got underway.
The 62-year-old is thought reluctant to sign on again or even consider it before next summer's tournament is concluded, in case the competition does not go as planned and he is then free to leave.
However, Marca report that RFEF chief Angel Maria Villar sees no reason for Del Bosque to stop leading the national team and that he has already begun trying to convince the Coach to consider another renewal.
It is understood that Del Bosque will be presented with a formal contract offer come next October, if at the conclusion of the qualification stage La Roja have sealed their place at the World Cup in Brazil.
Spain have an 83 per cent win percentage under Del Bosque and they go into this coming summer's Confederations Cup as world and double European champions.
The recent qualifiers against Finland and France saw Del Bosque move outright in front as the Coach to have overseen the most games in charge of the Spanish national team, with 70.

For the past few years, I have been working on a short story. After a bit of polishing (and having it edited by Blood Lord (thank you again c: )), I feel that I am (finally) ready to present my finished work.
I originally believed that this would be the last story that I would write for a while, however inspiration has hit me once again. So, upon completion, I will be posting those tales here for you to enjoy. The majority (if not all) will be short stories. The title (of this thread) is subject to change until I can find something that sounds better.
So stick around and let me spin a colorful yarn (ha) for you guys. The first one, is a tale that goes by the name of "The Choice". It is meant to be a monologue. Enjoy c:
The Choice
Once again, I have been presented the most ludicrous of choices. In the one hand they place food. In the other, I am offered warmth. So what shall I choose?
(laughs) I remember a time when there was no need for such a frivolous choice. I could have my cake and eat it too. But no, times have unfortunately changed for the worse, especially with the many new constricting laws that have been passed. When I try to eat now, a federal case is made about it. When I try to keep warm, they say that I'm not sane. Is it wrong of me to sleep with the warmth of newspaper at night? Is it wrong of me to scavenge food from a dumpster? Oh! How I can remember the days with which I could enjoy both a roaring fire and a nice meal. I remember the days when I had something to look forward to when I get up in the morning. But now it is all just a distant memory that shall soon completely be erased from my mind.
(Stomach growls) I see that my stomach is answering my question for me, then food it is!
(A breeze blows) Brrr!! My flesh tells a different story. Oh woe is me! Why must I make a decision that not even my own body is willing to make?!
(Shouting is heard) What! They dare try to deny me my only other right of speech? This is the least they could grant me! Regardless of how loud my voice rises! They have taken my sight and freedom, but they shall not have my voice too!
(Fades to black) where am i? (laughs) that is a silly question, of course I am still here and I still haven't made a choice. Hunger must have made me weak.(reaches to stomach) but what is this? I cannot feel my hands either? A decision must be made soon I see. Food, if it is warm, it should keep me warm and full throughout the week! But if it is cold, it would surely make my numbness worse. Warmth, if it is not scorching, should help me to easily forget my hunger at least for a few days. But if the temperature is not right, then I shall be lusting after yet another meal. Should a man choose to starve or should he choose to freeze?! Which is the manlier way to die?! My eyes have died since long ago from having nothing remarkable to look at. All I see is a vast nothingness that seems to stretch on to eternity. I refuse to sacrifice any more of my freedom, I have made my decision! (Calls to someone waiting outside)
(A Person enters the room and begins to speak) I have learned, that while I may not understand what this being is speaking of, I only need to nod and smile at the appropriate moments, of which these fools will surely believe me. The utterance of one phrase is all that is necessary to seal the deal.
Yes I have made my choice. (The person nods in approval, and then proceeds to make preparations for both warmth and nourishment).
These poor innocent fools sincerely believe that I am in the wrong, that I am the one who should be persecuted. All the good I have done all the help that I have given, and for what? Nothing. My words have fallen on deaf ears, and no one understands my actions. I should show them once more, in the only way I know how. In the only way that matters.
(Gets up, proceeds to ram person into the flames that the person had been stoking.)
I have chosen both; you will hinder me no longer! (Proceeds to take a bite)
YES! This is the meal that I have been craving since they stole my freedom! The warmth, the taste, all of it is exquisite and it is mine! (As I attempt to enjoy my very warm meal, I feel the sudden onset of sleep overtake me. As I come to, I hear the ever present voice once more.)
What is your choice?
Once again…I am presented with the most ludicrous of choices.

{/rw_verdict} –>
AllMedia Grabber is a program that allows you to find and extract
From "EXECUTABLES, LIBRARIES, CUSTOM CONTROLS, MICROSOFT OFFICE FILES, DATABASES, RAW or BINARY FILES (like exe, dll, ocx, doc, ppt, xls, pdf, mdb, raw, bin, hex…)". Of course the developer cleverly did not specify all the files AllMedia Grabber can extract from but in my testing it seems like AllMedia Grabber can "scan" just about any type of file: if you right click on any file, a context menu entry will say "AllMedia Grabber (extract)". Select that and AllMedia Grabber will scan the file and see what it can find. This happens for files where you would not expect images, icons, video or music files to be in like .TXT and .HTML files.
That being said, AllMedia Grabber was given out as v4.0 back in May [3]. Today's is v4.2. Here are the changes are per the developer:
What's new in version 4.2 (Release Date:14/06/2009):
– Optimized scan speed.
– Improved ICO files routine.- Improved Extraction of PowerPoint files.
- Some minor bugs fixed.
What's new in version 4.1 (Release Date:26/03/2009):
– New rewritten routine for detection and extraction of ICO, CUR and BMP formats.
– Added scan pause/resume.- Exports scan results to Web Page including preview of extracted files.
- Improved Extraction of PDF files.
- Some minor bugs fixed.
That being said, to learn more about AllMedia Grabber, please read the full review [3] I wrote back in May.
This review was conducted on a laptop running Windows 7 Professional 32-bit. The specs of the laptop are as follows: 3GB of RAM, a Radeon HD 2600 512MB graphics card, and an Intel T8300 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo processor.
Nirsoft Resources Extractor [4]
ResourcesExtract is a small utility that scans dll/ocx/exe files and extract all resources (bitmaps, icons, cursors, AVI movies, HTML files, and more…) stored in them into the folder that you specify.
{/rw_freea} –>
{rw_verdict2}I didn't like AllMedia Grabber back in May and I don't like it very much now. However I have a respected friend who vouches for this software, and that is fine – not everyone has to agree with me. So my recommendation is give AllMedia Grabber a try and see if you like it. If you do, keep it. If not, don't keep it. If your experience is anything like mine, you won't like it.

Coping with expedition life
17th March, 2009Any time away from home can be tough. This is now well into our third week away from home for all of the E-Base team. I know that homesickness can be difficult for people and having spent a miserable week away at cub camp at the age of 7, I have bad memories of being away from home.
Everyone in the team here is amazing, each bringing their own personality and fun to the mix. Without them I could be back to my cub camp feelings again! The work we are doing doesn't allow you to stop to think about life outside Antarctica for 5 minutes. So although I'm sure we all miss home, we are keeping ourselves very entertained in our work. I also personally want to thank my wonderful Jacqui and my great family for all their support. Without that I probably wouldn't be here now.
I love doing the education videos (does it show?), but even that can take Jamie, myself and Jonny (our fantastic camera man/director/co-script writer/co-science advisor who you never see as he is behind the lens) several hours to put together, mostly due to me taking a several takes to get it right….sorry Jonny! We had our first real break today and stopped working this afternoon for a while. We had lunch with one of our amazing new friends here in Antarctica.
His name is Alejo and is part of the 2041 team and maybe one of the most amazing men you will ever meet. He has spent so many years working in this continent that he probably knows more about Antarctica through experience alone, than anyone else around. He has almost lost count of the number of times he has been to the South Pole and his adventures are legendary. He has pioneered climbing new mountains and also works as a rescue worker, saving numerous people from this harsh continent when things don't go to plan. I personally can't think of anyone else I would rather have supporting this team.
Alejo took us out on a Zodiac speed boat to visit a local penguin rookery and onwards to see an incredible blue ice glacier. We have seen lots of penguins and seals since our arrival, but today we were fortunate enough to see five leopard seals up close. They are creatures not to be messed with, but again simply down to his experience Alejo kept us safe and secure around these potentially dangerous wild animals. The fog had descended in Bellingshausen but as soon as we found the Leopard seals at the glacier, the sun burnt through and the photographs we took look stunning.
Everything I see here makes me understand more and more how precious life is in Antarctica and how fragile this ecosystem is. I am here to make a difference to the way we think about and use energy. If you are interested enough to read this, then just maybe you can help make that difference too.

Prolonging Your Tan
Posted on | April 23, 2014 | By David Linn | 2 Comments
Rabbi Label Lam often explains that when someone comes back from vacationing in a warm climate, everyone knows that they have been away because they can see their tan. Rabbi Lam continues that when you come back from Eretz Yisrael you have the "inner tan". When I was a kid, my mother used to have this cream called "After Tan" that you would "apply liberally after showering" to prolong your tan for weeks after your vacation memories had faded.
Having recently returned from Eretz Yisrael, I've been contemplating how to prolong my "inner tan". In EY, I was on a high. Waking up for shachris on three hours of sleep was not that difficult. Running to the kosel to daven a midnight maariv in the rain, a privilege. Now, back home, exhausted, pushing myself to the 9 o'clock shacharis on purim morning was not easy. What happened? And how did it happen so fast?
In actuality, this is not something limited to a trip to Eretz Yisrael, it is something that, IMO, happens to every growth oriented person and perhaps more particularly to BTs. After the initial excitement of an event or an inspiration, people tend to slink back to their previous "less inspired" self. What serves as the "After Tan" for the inner tan?
The Gemara praises Palti Ben Layish as exceeding even Yosef HaTzaddik in Yosef's ability to stave off the continuing advances of Potiphar's wife. What did Palti ben Layish do to deserve such praise? The Talmud relates that Shaul HaMelekh had a daughter who was married to David, but Shaul argued, erroneously, that based on a technicality she was not married to David and legally had no husband. Shaul gave this daughter Palti ben Layish as a wife.
Palti ben Layish was faced with a dilemma of epic proportions: He could not refuse the King; he had to take his daughter as a wife. Yet, he knew very well that this was a married woman. There he was in the bedroom, on his wedding night, with a married woman. What did he do in order to ensure that he would succeed in withstanding temptation? He took a sword and stuck it in the ground and said "Anyone who 'occupies himself with this matter' will be stabbed by this sword." The Gemara goes on to say that because of this tremendous act, Palti Ben Layish merited the assistance of Heaven and was able to live with the King's daughter for many years and never so much as touch her.
What was so incredible about the act of sticking the sword into the ground? The answer is that Palti Ben Layish had the foresight to place a reminder of his true, clear thoughts at the time when they arose so that later, when perhaps his thinking wouldn't be so clear, he would have that reminder. On that first night, Palti ben Layish knew what was right and what was wrong. On that first night, he had his priorities straight. On that first night, it was crystal clear. But, he also knew the human condition. He knew that when tomorrow came and as the days and the months and the years passed, his feelings would dissipate, his clarity would become murky. He would be tempted, he would come up with an excuse, he would become weak, and he would rationalize. Therefore, he said to himself, "I need a reminder, I have to seize this moment of absolute clarity and take a concrete step that will remind me that I know what is right and wrong in this situation." There are moments when one does not rationalize, when one can clearly see the truth. Those are the moments when we must set up our own reminders.
I think in a way that reminders are a great way of prolonging the "inner tan". Now, I'm not saying that we need to be planting swords all over the house (post-its might do the trick!) It may be as simple using a meaningful picture of your trip to Israel as your bookmark in your siddur. It may be placing an insightful quote as your computer screensaver. It may be pegging an area of growth to a particular event in your day that will remind you to do something such as saying (bli neder) "I won't eat dinner before I learn one page of mussar", "I won't go to bed before I say one kapitel tehillim", "I won't eat lunch on Sundays before I call my parents" or "I won't take off my tefillin before I learn one mishnah". A similar means of prolonging the "inner tan" is by taking a small concrete commitment at the height of your inspiration. Doing so will almost certainly extend the length of that inspiration and helped to internalize it and make it a part of your being.
So, when we you return to your job, school, etc. after Yom Tov and someone asks you what you did over Pesach, simply reply "I was working on my tan!"
2 Responses to "Prolonging Your Tan"
April 15th, 2006 @ 9:41 pmSo if it is possible to prolong your inner tan after a visit to EY, is there something that one should do before going? This is not a amart-ass question! Is there something like metaphorical tanning lotion that should be applied before hand to deepen the experience? Just curious on your thoughts about this.
David Linn
April 16th, 2006 @ 12:36 amAmishav:
That's a great question and though I hadn't thought about it, it's probably just as important as the steps taken after the trip.
From a spiritual standpoint, I think one has to make themselves as receptive as possible without expecting to be knocked off your feet. Sometimes the greatest spiritual lift comes from the least expected place.
From a practical stand point, I think a great deal depends upon who is going, for what reason (touring, learning, Bar Mitzvah, spiritual recharge, a mix of these, etc.), how much time you have and the like.
If it's your first trip, it's extremely important to have an understanding of the geography: what is where, how long it takes to get from place to place and what there is to do there.
I also think its important to get an overview of the history of different areas and a snapshot of the history of the land up to present times. There is so much more that can be personalized and having planned three trips in the past two years, I can give a little individual guidance to those interested. Please feel free to email me at email@example.com.

Early this month because I'm going to be swamped, and I know I'm not going to have a chance to watch any more films.
Horrible Bosses (2011) — I wasn't offended at some point, as I am with a number of modern comedies that feature gross-out scenes, but watching this was a complete waste of time. I don't feel as though as I gained anything after seeing the movie that I didn't already know or laugh at after seeing the trailer. I like Jason Sudeikis (Hall Pass), but I wish he had better taste in films, since I don't think he's done anything yet that's lived up to his talent.
Ladies They Talk About (1933) — Barbara Stanwyck is a woman in prison in this pre-Code that's still enjoyable to watch today. She's a well-dressed distraction for a bank robbery who refuses to squeal on her compatriots, so she goes to jail. Her hard eyes reveal her schemes, even when she's pretending to be a silly rich woman, although later, her motivations are all over the place.
The characters and situations in the clink are entertaining, although I never believed that Stanwyck's hard cookie was stupid enough to engage in one of the later plots the gang drags her into. Watch for the moment when, new to prison, she's warned away from the cigar-smoking woman who "likes to wrestle". More interesting is her relationship with crusading reformer David Slade (Preston Foster), who's got a huge crush on her, and the jealousy it creates in another prisoner (Dorothy Burgess). That woman's mixture of hero worship and revival-style reformation is a potent cocktail of crazy.
Outcast Lady (1934) — Constance Bennett stars as Iris, who can't be with the man she loves. Although they're neighbors and from the same background, she's penniless and her father was a drunkard (as is her brother), which means she's not good enough for Napier (Herbert Marshall, who's too old for the role of a struggling young man who does what he father tells him). So Napier (not the stupidest name in the movie, that's coming up) heads back off to India (they're all British, you see), and Iris winds up marrying Boy Fenwick (Ralph Forbes), a rich friend of the family who's loved her from afar all these years. (Yes, that's the stupidest name. I spent the first third thinking it must be "Boyd" until I saw it written out.)
Then the movie gets strange. On their wedding night, Iris gets an anonymous note accusing Boy of an unspecified horrible crime that he spent time in prison for! Worse yet, it's true, so instead of living with the guilt of his secret, he jumps out the window! Iris won't have the real reason for his suicide revealed, for fear her brother's worshipful idolization of Boy will be shaken, so everyone thinks Boy killed himself because of her. The relationship between the brother (Hugh Williams) and the friend is fruitfully rich with symbolism, if you're into that kind of thing. Trying to save the brother doesn't help, since he winds up drinking himself to death anyway, this time out of hate for his sister.
That sends her into a downward spiral, and only seeing Napier will keep her from dying from an unspecified illness, only he's now married to a proper little thing named Venice (Elizabeth Allan) who calls him "Naps". I found the way people flat-out told others what they wanted and what they were thinking, especially this other family friend who kept showing up whenever anyone had a problem or concern so they'd have someone to explain it to, ridiculous. I have no idea why they were making such stage-y versions of the problems of the rich during the Depression. I guess for the same reason people today watch the Real Housewives shows.
Paul (2011) — This kept pleasantly surprising me, from the way it beautifully expressed the joy of going to Comic-Con to Jane Lynch showing up as a waitress at an alien tie-in roadside store and cafe. Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are two sci-fi nerds touring America, checking out places like Area 51, when they find a runaway alien voiced by Seth Rogen.
Great cast, with Jason Bateman as an agent, Kristen Wiig as the fundamentalist daughter of an RV park owner, a voice cameo by Steven Spielberg, and Sigourney Weaver as a mastermind. The whole film is a love letter to geekdom, cute and funny.
Sin Takes a Holiday (1930) — Not nearly as spicy as the title suggests, this is a rather predictable filmed play starring Constance Bennett as a secretary who marries her boss (the unknown-to-me Kenneth MacKenna). He proposes it as a way to deter his girlfriend, a woman planning to get divorced and marry him. Yes, that's right, he doesn't want to get married, so he gets married. Bennett accepts because it will give her enough money to travel and buy some nice clothes.
If anyone watches this today, it's probably for Basil Rathbone, who plays the charming roue' Bennett meets on her trip to Paris. As expected, when she returns home, her makeover, now that she can afford it, and her bringing a "lover" makes her more attractive to her husband-in-name-only, and the couple then falls in love and makes their marriage real. The purpose of these types of films is to perpetuate the view of marriage as an important thing to respect, with almost a magical ability to bring those under it together, even if they enter it casually or for other reasons.
While watching this, KC asked me why there were so many arranged or otherwise paper marriages in these movies. I suspect it was because it allowed the writers to put the characters together more easily. We're looking at a time where single men and women weren't supposed to be alone together — consider their reputations! Having them married allowed them to share more intimate settings. Plus, it forced them to keep being thrown into contact with each other.
Ally McBeal Season 1 — For a variety of reasons, most involving David E. Kelley and Robert Downey Jr., we bought the complete series when it came out, and we're just now getting around to watching it. I remember seeing the first episode when it was released — actually, before, since I was splitting an apartment at the time with a TV critic who kept saying how terrific a portrait this was of the modern woman. I'm not so sure about that, but now, this is another memory time capsule of a time when everything was uncertain but people were still doing well enough to spend time agonizing about relationships between the sexes (instead of, say, how to keep food on the table). As with many of the more enjoyable series these days, it takes it a while to get going. I've missed Fish-isms and "Bygones!"
Glee Season 1 — It's quite odd watching this show get started, compared to where it is now. Matthew Morrison doesn't sing so much these days, and we see less of the teachers overall. The music was a bit more diverse back then, I think, as they had fewer choices available to them (back when they were an untested project). There were more fantasy numbers, too, whereas now they just throw the cast onto a stage. I don't miss the pregnancy plotlines at all, nor do I miss crazy wife.
I'm left full of questions about things I forgot the show did. When did Artie stop playing guitar? What happened to Matt Rutherford, the black football player/dancer who joined when Mike Chang did? Why did they stop writing Quinn as so sure of herself and knowing what she wanted, even if her desires were shallow? When did Tina quit looking like a goth skater? Does anyone remember that Rachel and Puck were together? Or that Kurt was on the football team? AND the cheerleaders?
Speaking of which, it's still powerful watching Kurt grow up and into himself. Otherwise, the show doesn't age well, since the plotlines are all over the place. It may end up being TV from a particular era, a touchstone at the time but quickly forgotten as people move on.
How to Lose Friends & Alienate People (2008) — This is the fourth time, I think, I've tried to watch this, but this time, I finally finished it. It's got a good cast, anchored by Simon Pegg, but it's all just so unpleasant about everything. Pegg plays a British journalist who thinks he's so smart about how shallow Hollywood is but really wants to be part of that celebrity world, even if it means abasing himself and being hated by the famous. He jumps at the chance to write for a major American magazine and moves to New York City, where he has misadventures.
Pegg's character makes lots of comments about being too smart to be taken in by the celebrity culture, but his actions belie his words. He hates it verbally because he loves it so much internally. Jeff Bridges is his editor, Kirsten Dunst a fellow writer, Megan Fox the actress lust object represented by publicist Gillian Anderson. Lots of cringe comedy as Pegg's character gets embarrassed and humiliated. Based on Toby Young's memoir of his time at Vanity Fair, although revised to be a more traditional romantic comedy. Predictable, and not particularly funny.
Whisper of the Heart (1995) — I was reminded of this movie due to its recent release on Blu-ray, so I dug out my DVD. The bit about rewriting the lyrics to "Country Roads" doesn't get any better with age, but I could appreciate much more the suburban and country settings now that I've seen other Ghibli films. The boy's goal of becoming a violin maker strikes me as one of the odder job choices in fiction, but it's handled well. It makes me wish that Only Yesterday was available in the U.S., since that's josei to this film's shojo approach.
Oh, yes. That is what Dr. Who has been reminding me of for the past season and a half. Thank you for figuring this out for me.
Now I am trying to decide if "David E. Kelly's Torchwood" is a bad thing or not.

The Wu-Tang Clan has broken their silence after rapper Andre Johnson cut off his penis and attempted to commit suicide in Los Angeles on April 16 — and what they have to say isn't very kind!
The Wu-Tang Clan wants the world to know that Andre Johnson is not now and has never been affiliated with the band. After Andre's shocking April 16 suicide attempt, the group denied its connection to the rapper also known as Christ Bearer in a strongly worded article posted to their social media pages on April 17.

But an article that was posted to the Wu-Tang Clan's social media pages on April 17 and later deleted read: "Parental Advisory: Don't Believe the HYPE. This Mother F–ker Ain't Got S–t to do with The WUTANG Brand."
According to E! News, the article was posted along with an image of a man who may or may not be Andre, and the caption, "Not affiliated with the Wu-Tang Brand."
Additionally, someone claiming to be a spokesperson for the Wu-Tang Clan released a statement to The Mirror, saying of Andre, "He is not of any affiliation to Wu-Tang Clan or any of its subsidiaries. No one here has ever seen or heard of this fool until now."
However, a rep for the Wu-Tang Clan has since told E! News that no one from the band's camp made a statement to the paper, adding, "What Christbearer did was unfathomable. I feel for his family at this time."
Andre Johnson Cuts Off His Penis In Suicide Attempt
Andre cut of his own penis and jumped from the second story of a building in North Hollywood, Calif. on April 16. He survived the fall and was rushed to Cedars Sinai Hospital, where doctors were reportedly not able to reattach his penis.
Other rappers were present when Andre jumped. They said that there were no drugs on the scene, and that a possible mental issue could be the reason behind Andre's suicide attempt.
So HollywoodLifers, do YOU think the Wu-Tang Clan should be more supportive of Andre during this difficult time? Let us know!

Who's saying they are not supportive? It's obvious there are some jerks pretending to be the clan making BS statements. What exactly does the writer of this article know what's the clan is our isn't doing to ask a subjective misleading question? So someone here has access to clan phone records and text messages?

Of all age groups, infants are the most vulnerable to fluoride toxicity. Due to their small size, infants receive up to 400% more fluoride (per pound of body weight) than adults consuming the same level of fluoride in water. Not only do infants receive a larger dose, they have an impaired ability to excrete fluoride through their kidneys. Healthy adults can excrete more than 50% of an ingested fluoride dose; infants, by contrast, can only excrete 15 to 20%. This leads to a greater build-up of fluoride in the body, and may help explain why infants fed formula made with fluoridated water suffer higher rates of dental fluorosis, a discoloration of the teeth caused by excessive fluoride ingestion during childhood.
Teeth are not the only tissue that can be affected by fluoride exposure during infancy. A baby's blood brain barrier is not fully developed at birth, and this allows fluoride, a neurotoxin, greater access to the brain than in later periods in life. Over 30 studies have associated elevated fluoride exposure with neurological impairment in children, which may, in part, result from fluoride's affect on the thyroid gland. In light of the serious nature of these effects, and the lack of benefit from pre-eruptive ingestion of fluoride, basic precautionary principles strongly counsel against exposing infants to any fluoride.
Concerns about the wisdom of supplementing an infant's diet with fluoride are being voiced by even ardent pro-fluoride dental organizations. In 1994, the American Dental Association (ADA), American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), and American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) reversed their decades-long policy of recommending that doctors prescribe fluoride supplements to newborn infants. While these organizations have refrained from taking the obvious step of recommending that fluoridated water not be be added to infant formula (a practice that exposes infants to nearly 4 times more fluoride than supplements) a growing number of prominent dental researchers have made this recommendation.

- New Recommendations: See the new recommendations from pro-fluoride organizations and researchers on fluoride exposure during infancy.

Help start an infant warning campaign:
- The Fluoride Action Network is currently working with individuals and organizations throughout the United States to pass legislation on both the state and city level requiring public disclosure of the the risks that fluoridated water poses to infants. In 2012, FAN helped persuade the State of New Hampshire to pass by a landslide vote a bill requiring water departments in the state to notify consumers of the fluorosis risk posed by infant consumption of fluoridated water. To learn more and contribute to FAN's effort on this project, click here.
New Hampshire Passes First State-Wide Fluoride Warning Law
Beginning August 4, 2012, New Hampshire will require notification that 6-month-olds should not be routinely fed infant formula mixed with fluoridated water to avoid discoloring babies' unerupted teeth (fluorosis), reports the Fluoride Action Network (FAN). Passed by the House, 253-23, unanimously by the Senate, and signed by the Governor, HB-1416 reads:
Harvard Study Finds Fluoride Lowers IQ
Harvard University researchers' review of fluoride/brain studies concludes "our results support the possibility of adverse effects of fluoride exposures on children's neurodevelopment."
Impact of Fluoride on Neurological Development in Children
In a meta-analysis, researchers from Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) and China Medical University in Shenyang for the first time combined 27 studies and found strong indications that fluoride may adversely affect cognitive development in children. Based on the findings, the authors say that this risk should not be ignored, and that more research on fluoride's impact on the developing brain is warranted.

The Fluorosis Risk: Infant Formula Made with Fluoridated Water
Babies who ingest infant formula made with fluoridated water have a significantly elevated risk of developing dental fluorosis in their permanent teeth. The fluorosis caused by infant exposure will generally appear on the child's front teeth, the teeth most likely to embarrass and cause anxiety for the child if they have fluorosis stains.

Fluoride Is Not an Essential Nutrient
In the 1950s, dentists believed that fluoride was a "nutrient." A nutrient is a vitamin or mineral that is necessary for good health. Dentists believed that fluoride ingestion during childhood was necessary for strong, healthy teeth. A "fluoride deficiency" was thus believed to cause cavities, just like a deficiency of calcium can
Infants Have Impaired Ability to Excrete Fluoride
"Approximately 80% of an absorbed dose of fluoride is retained in young children compared to 50% in adults. This is supported by the finding that renal fluoride excretion rate is lower in children than adults. This difference in fluoride retention is due to high fluoride uptake in developing bones."
