A Rant in Prose
We're going to start with guns. More specifically, we're going to start with the irrational fear of guns that almost got a student suspended from school for wearing a US Marines t-shirt with crossed rifles at the bottom of it.
I wish I was making this up rather than there actually being people fucktarded enough to believe a fucking t-shirt with a gun on it might in some way endanger students. Do ya really think someone is going to take a gun PRINTED on their god damn t-shirt off and start shooting people with it?
The school reversed course on this one but the school still issued a statement about student safety over this stupid shit. It's a t-shirt, you stupid sons of bitches. You've got a better chance of being eaten by Godzilla than you do from being shot by a fucking t-shirt.
Buncha god damn gun fearing pussies.
Playboy Energy Drink has a facebook page with pictures of what they call Battle Bunnies. None of the pictures are of naked women. Some of them might as well be but no nipples or clits can be seen anywhere. It's mostly women in the military with their uniforms open in sensual poses.
I see it and think, among other things, that these women are showing that underneath the uniform, they are still women.
Apparently women see it and think, "disrespectful slut."
I read comments about how they are setting back the progress women have made in the military and how people have died in that uniform.
Forgive me but....BULLSHIT. Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit.
I have seen many pictures of men in uniform without their shirts on and read the comments from women about how sexy it is. I haven't read a single god damn remark about how it was disrespectful to the uniform or about how the guys should put on their shirts because people have died in it.
I haven't even read anyone make a negative comment on the comments.
Sexy guy in a partial uniform? Hot! Sexy woman in the same uniform showing her bra? Dirty slut!
Women, you need to knock the shit off. For all the talk of any double standards between the sexes, you are the ones that perpetuate it. Unless the woman is your friend, in which case you'll find an excuse for any of their behavior, you hold other women to a standard you don't hold men, or yourself, to. Any show of sexuality means the woman is a slut with low self esteem and she's setting women back.
We men don't give a shit. If some guy wants to show his junk off, more power to him. I hope some of these double standard perpetuating women see it and are overcome with the desire to fornicate. Maybe a good fuck would unbunch their damn panties.

Thank you for writing this.
The whole gun debate in this country has gotten out of hand. When people have lost the ability to talk rationally it becomes hateful words being slung at one another. I cannot tell you how many times I've sat in front of my keyboard and wanted to write something and then stopped. I own a gun, my husband is retired military, I know my views and I know it's getting ridiculous out there.
As for the women in their uniforms, I can't comment properly without seeing the pictures so I will say this - we women tend to do ourselves more harm then good when we resort to name calling. We expect equality but want to be seen as sexy at the same time. The moment a women labels another woman a slut or whore, any equality is lost.RepliesThe gun thing passed stupid a long time ago. I am so tired of those fucking whiners, I just wanna shoot them all. (Author's note: That last line was a joke, folks. Relax.)
As for the other, it just amazes me how quickly women turn on each other. These women are being blamed for how all women in the military are treated. That the way women in the military are treated has been happening since at least I was born doesn't seem to matter. These month old photos, that's what's keeping men from not being dickholes.
Women will never find the equality they stop beating each other up for being women.
I completely agree with Elsie about the fact that as women, we do ourselves a disservice when we resort to name calling and putting other women down.
It's ladies like that, who put back the progress that women have made over the years.It's a shame really. :)RepliesI'm a man so I guess I'll never understand but it boggles my damn mind when I see how women treat each other if one of them exudes any sexuality at all. And to top it off, these same women will complain about sexual double standards. I just wanna shake the shit out of them and explain what "you're part of the fucking problem" means. Grrrrrr.....

Taught this dance tonight and it went down well. It took a little while to teach because it's 64 counts but my class really liked it. The music is really nice and the dance flows with the music. Definitely worth looking at this dance if you haven't already.

I got a small sample of French Vanilla with Rum Spice with a Gift With Purchase. It is a very good base color or highlighter. I use this almost every time I need a highlight color for the brow bone. Once I am out of this color I will most likely repurchase it. It is a matte beige color, very neutral.
Contains a matte ivory cream shadow and a dark chocolate matte eye shadow. Nothing really interesting here. I am using up the cream as a highlighter. Clinique eye shadows are not my favorite.
meh...so boring. This is the most basic palette to be offered by Clinique in a gwp: white matte color, and the dark brown matte color. The only thing I liked about it is that the color lasted all day but I think matte colors that have no dimension are very aging, and this duo is very 1990s. But I will keep it because i like the vanilla color, and I could use it inner corner of the eye.

Last night I had a dream that me and my mom we're taking our two dogs for a walk and I thought I saw a small dog in a patch of tall grass. So, I went to check it out and it turned out to be a raccoon, so I ran back and told my mom and we walked home. When we got home and went in the basement we found that the raccoon was actually living in our basement. Then I can't remember much until the end where I was trying to kill it with my bare hands by strangling it. Apparently the raccoon was threatening in some way. idk.
So, because the raccoon was so predominant in the dream I looked up raccoon on the dream definitions site and it said this:
"To see a raccoon in your dream, signifies deceit and thievery. You are not being completely honest in some situation."
Which I find kinda hilarious considering the predicament that I'm in right now. I want to go to the LGBT youth group and I've been trying to think of a lie (the past week) to tell my parents so I can go without coming out to them. Because I'm not ready for that yet.
Maybe my subconscious is trying to tell me that it's a bad idea to lie. lol. I don't really know what the hell it's trying to tell me. or if it's trying to tell me anything at all. All I know is that the whole youth group thing has been on my mind a whole lot lately and I can't stop thinking about it.
IF you choose to lie, I want you to learn from my mistakes.
1) Don't mention specific people's homes. Parents can and will call other parents to contact their child, even if they've never met. Instead, choose a public place, like a park or store.
2)If your parents find out you aren't there, have a backup story ready. Saying that you went to the mall is probably best, as even if the parents where also there, there are so many stores that it wouldn't be unusual if you didn't run into each other.
3) Have details about your lie. It will be obvious if you try to make stuff up on the spot, so be thorough.
5) Feel free to mention the other people in the group; just lie about the pretense. Discussing how you feel about them will give you something else to tell your parents about other than what you did. For example, say that they are members of your book club, not your GLBT group. This should make your lie more believable as well.
6) Park in a different lot. Your parents will probably recognize your car, so it helps if you choose someplace inconspicuous to park. If your parents ask you about where you park, say you carpooled with someone in the group to save gas.
A study group is a pretty solid excuse for most high school students; parents usually wont object, and you can always just tell them what you did in school that day if they want to know what your study group was doing. Make sure to say that the other members of this group go to different schools, so that you are in the clear during parent-teacher conferences.
The only flaw would be that summer starts soon, and study groups don't usually extend into the summer. If you can't think of some reason that a study group would continue into the summer, just tell them that you are good enough friends that you wanted to keep in touch.
As you have probably deduced, this lie will be difficult. But if you honestly think this youth group could help you, especially in terms of coming out to your parents, then I'd say it's worth it.
Good luck as well. And sorry about the length of the comment; I get carried away.
It'll definitely be help if I get to go.
Btw, did you find youth group to be helpful at all?
Mental wounds not healing, driving me insane, i'm goin' off the rails on a crazy train- the ozzman
hey i wish we lived in the same area... i'm having problems with my parents and coming out... gosh i really wanna tell them,,, bt i feel lik i'l need someone to hold my hand & mayb take me in for a couple of days seeing that mother will throw me out after i tell her about myself.. -[
wish we cud help each other with this...
BT I HOPE FOR THE BEST FOR YOU!!! jus know that Lying isnt RIGHT. -] you'll find the way! -]

Amman, Jordan: Government attacks on central and northern cities in Syria killed six people on Sunday, activists said, as the government announced that two years of conflict has cost the public sector $15 billion (Dh55 billion).
In Focus | Syria
Syria puts public sector cost due to war at $15b
Attacks on central and northern cities killed 6 people on Sunday
President Bashar Al Assad's forces have been on the offensive in the central city of Homs, reclaiming some of the territory they lost to the rebels since the uprising began.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said Syrian army warplanes pounded the old quarters of Homs, killing one woman and two children.
Further north, in the suburbs of Idlib, three other civilians, including one woman and one child, were killed in army clashes with the rebels, the Observatory added.
A city of about one million, Homs has been a flashpoint since the early days of the uprising, and many residents have sided with the rebels.
It is Syria's third largest city and capital of its largest province, which carries the same name and stretches from the Lebanese border to the frontier with Jordan and Iraq.
Meanwhile, local Administration Minister Omar Al Ebrahim Galaounji revealed that public sector losses over the 27 months of conflict amount to 1.5 trillion pounds.
Galaounji said that more than 9,000 government establishments were also damaged in the crisis, which began as peaceful protests in March 2011 and later deteriorated into all-out civil war.
Elsewhere, the Observatory reported clashes between the army and rebels in at least three other provinces — the capital Damascus and the northern cities of Aleppo and Hama.

5Homemade Brown Sugar & Olive Oil Facial Scrub
Exfoliating your skin regularly is important to help remove excess dirt, dead skin, and oils to rejuvenate your skin.
Homemade scrubs can be every bit as effective as store-bought products but without the nasty chemicals and preservatives. A scrub made with brown sugar is great to help remove dead skin and olive oil will soothe the skin making it soft and tender. Don't worry about the olive oil; it's one of the most natural oils and will not clog your pores.
What You'll Need:
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup brown sugar
To create the scrub, mix the brown sugar and olive oil and together.
Things can get a little messy so if you are planning to scrub more then just your face and neck, it's recommended to use this scrub in the shower. Apply the mixture to your face in gentle circular motions concentrating on your cheeks, forehead and chin. Scrub any other areas of your body that may be dry, such as your elbows, knees, feet. After about 1 minute, rinse off the scrub with warm water.

Just my view: You do a lot of pieces that are either monochromatic, or deviate little from the original color, but If you enjoy it that is cool. Her right elbow's shading is a little harsh, and her left hand's shading is weird as well (I do like the her right hand though). May be a little too busy with texture, but I enjoy it. The bubbles above the crab (and the crab) do not look at appealing as the bubbles coming from the vase. The little purple fishies at the bottom and the left I think are not fish looking enough. If you wanted coins in the chest, they look like dashes and not like circular coins. I think the teapot and the flowing from it is elegant, nice. The sea-weed at the bottom is a little too simplistic, and the anchor I believe fades too much into the background.
somewhat Hopefully helps

Sanus VisionMount™ VMTV Written By Tom P, Hayden, Idaho on Thursday, June 07, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Very easy to install and all the nuts bolts and screws were separated and labeled. Made things much easier. Crutchfield was great to deal with.

High Quality - Easy To Install Written By Kent R., Albert Lea, Minnesota on Thursday, March 10, 2011 This Sanus TV Wall Mount is a high quality product. Every piece in the box was individually packaged and numbered, which made the installation an easy process. I highly recommend this product to anyone who may have an older model TV that they would like to mount to the wall. Lastly the Crutchfield product order team made it easy to order, followed up with an email confirmation, and we received our order in just a few days. Great service !
Great mount! Written By StacyB, Orlando, FL on Monday, September 13, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Assembly instructions were a very simple. Our only obstacle was that we had to purchase different screws to mount in concrete block wall. Adjustable platter holds 25" tube TV securely. Very happy with purchase!
Sanus VisionMount™ VMTV Written By ralph, Tawas City, MI on Saturday, April 11, 2009 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Well constructed, easy to install.
Excellent well made mount, easy install Written By eg, East Coast on Wednesday, December 17, 2008 My experience with tube tv wall mounts had been a disaster prior to using this mount. I've had a tv fall, the mount loosen, etc. but this mount changed my whole perspective on these types of mounts. Although the market has shrunk for tube tv's I highly recommend this Sanus mount if you are still looking for one of these. It was very easy to install into a stud (use a stud finder) and held with ease. I was so weary of it being able to hold our 21" TV/DVD combo tv, even though it says it can take 27". Our tv is pushing 70lbs and this thing had no problems holding it up and has shown no effects of sagging. An all around excellent, well made mount that is safe to use for heavy tvs (says up to 100lbs) and easy to put together even for a novice.
Great product Written By WaxFree, Dallas, TX on Monday, March 12, 2007 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great product with a fairly easy install. Supports a 20" tube tv very well. Excellent option for my outdoor patio area tv.

"These guys take about four to five years to grow," Johnny Flynn told me, pointing to the meaty oysters he had just finished shucking when we met. According to Flynn, owner of Colville Bay Oyster Company, the waters of P.E.I. are not only teeming with shellfish but full of bluefin tunawidely considered overfished in many of the world's waters. "To see the volume of tuna out there is phenomenal," he said, shaking his head. "It blows a hole through the idea that they are in short supply."
Though water is never far away, the island's main industry is agriculture, with more than 600,000 acres of farmland and 1,700 farmers. Potatoes thrive here, as do apples, blueberries, raspberries, and cranberries; the island's livestock include cattle, sheep, and hogs. Today, there is a growing emphasis on island food culture, thanks to organizations like the PEI Culinary Alliance, which creates networks of fishers, farmers, cooks, bakers, and artisans and organizes culinary events. The alliance has also developed the PEI Flavours Culinary Trail, highlighting drives and walks throughout the island with tempting stops along the way.
Despite the steady influx of Anne of Green Gables fans each year, Prince Edward Island has remained relatively low on the tourism radaruntil recently. Sparked by visits in the past two years from Live with Regis and Kelly and Will and Kate (as in His and Her Royal Highness), the buzz is beginning. Savvy travelers would do well to pack their appetites and dig in now, before the secret's out.
P.E.I. Essentials
Where to Stay
The Holman Grand, the first new hotel to open on the island in 25 years (high-season doubles from $295), or The Great George (high-season doubles from $220), both in central Charlottetown.
Where to Eat & Drink
Inn at Bay Fortune, for seasonal tasting menus straight from the seaside garden of this east-end property.
Lot 30, for bold takes on locavore eats in Charlottetown.
Blue Mussel Café and Carr's Oyster Bar, on the north shore, for shellfish and sea views.
Gahan House Pub & Brewery, a Charlottetown local favorite, for pub fare and handcrafted ales.
Where to Stop & Sample
Cows, at multiple locations, for award-winning ice cream; Charlottetown creamery tour.
Rossignol Winery, for tours and tastings of island varietals L'Acadie Blanc and Maréchal Foch in Murray River.
Charlottetown Farmers' Market, Saturdays year-round and Wednesdays June through October. Try the Avondale Meadows sheep's-milk cheeses and the made-to-order treats from L'il Orbits Donuts.

Write a ReviewGreat Barstools!
By Taylor R. from Edmond, OK on Sep 19, 2014
Avid Do-It-Yourselfer
I ordered 4 of these Amelia Barstools with backs. We needed to get backs because we have small children-- and they have been great! Our 3-7 years olds can easily get in and out of them, and with a secured booster even our 2 y/o likes sitting in them. They have good grippy-things on the feet too. The stools are sturdy and easy to clean, which are non-negotiables in this house. And I really debated on colors, but I am so happy with the blue color. It is just right-- not quite navy but not a bright primary blue either. I love the touch of modern/industrial design and pop of color they add to my home!

The Delivery Presents – Tunes and Terror and Not a Hint of Politics (with @RealityBlurs and @mark_scudder)
I believe Episode 162 is the first show in which I didn't hit on politics at all, and it couldn't have come at a better time. Quite honestly, I've had my fill of politics for a while (not a good sign since we're still two months from Election Day). Never fear, though, faithful listeners, for I had a couple of the guests on the show you'll truly enjoy, even if we didn't talk about conventions and polls and attack ads and Paul Ryan's pecs.
Mark Scudder is a musician who has done something exceptional — recorded an entire album online in full view of anyone who wanted to watch and give their input. The result, "The Solution is the Problem" is pretty darned good. If you're tired of auto-tuned pop-tarts, dancers who only occasionally remember to sing, and overproduced sample-fests, Mark's music will hit the spot.
In the second half, I was delighted to have game designer, author, and new friend Sean Preston of Reality Blurs on the show. We talked about his new role-playing game tremulus, what it's like to launch a Kickstarter, what makes a game fun for people who have never played an RPG before in their lives, and why we love scary stories so very much.
Dig in and enjoy! And if you have a few bucks to spare over the next couple or few weeks, pick up what Mark's album and pledge for Sean's game.

Corn Pudding
This corn pudding is so delicious, it's almost a dessert. Use frozen or fresh corn, but not canned -- it's too high in sodium.
Serves: Makes about 3 cups
- 2 cups milk
- 3 eggs
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 cup frozen thawed or fresh corn kernels
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the milk and eggs until smooth and a light lemony color. Gently stir in the syrup and corn. Pour into a 2-quart deep, buttered baking dish.
- Bake for 40 minutes or until the top is lightly golden and firm to the touch. Cool slightly before serving.

How to Save Your Own Life

4. Find out what the (eye) shadow knows
If you have trouble applying eye shadow or concealer smoothly because of yellowish eyelid bumps, the problem may be more than just cosmetic. In a long-term Danish study, people with lipid-filled bumps around eyes had a 48% higher chance of having a heart attack within the next three decades than those with smooth lids. The finding was especially true for women under the age of 55. In general, those with eyelid bumps also had higher levels of bad LDL cholesterol and triglycerides, and lower levels of good HDL cholesterol. But researchers were surprised to find that even when those blood tests were normal, heart attack risk was still elevated. So make sure your doctor takes a peek at your face while your eyes are closed. If she spies the eyelid sign, it may mean your body is prone to depositing cholesterol where it doesn't belong including in blood vessels and that you'd benefit from a more aggressive approach toward all your risk factors.
5. Get a wake-up call
People who get too little sleep (six hours or less a night), plus have poor-quality rest, face a 65% higher risk of heart disease, a Dutch study of 20,400 people found. So take your zzz's seriously. Tell your doctor if you're having trouble sleeping or if you're waking up without feeling refreshed. And adopt good sleep hygiene no caffeine after lunch, regular bedtimes and wake-up times, plenty of exercise in the early part of the day, no television or computer in bed to help you get the rest your heart needs. (For more tips, read 25 Ways to Sleep Better Tonight.)
6. Just say no...to soda
Sugary drinks aren't on anyone's good-health list, but in data reported last November, researchers noted that sweet sodas are particularly risky for women. A University of Oklahoma study of 4,166 women, age 45 and over, found that those who drank two or more sugar-sweetened beverages a day were nearly four times as likely to develop high triglycerides as those who drank one or fewer. They were also more likely to add to their waist sizes and develop impaired glucose levels, setting themselves up for diabetes. The researchers aren't sure why females are harder hit than males, but it may be as simple as calories because women need fewer, two sodas make up a greater proportion of their daily calorie intake. But don't wait for the definitive why: Quench your thirst with water or unsweetened iced teas, and get your fizz from seltzer (add a spritz of lemon or lime if you like a little flavor).
7. Dose with D daily
In the latest installment of "Is there anything vitamin D doesn't do?" a new review of 75 studies found that not getting enough of the sunshine vitamin raises your chance of a heart attack and ups many cardiovascular risk factors, including high blood pressure, general inflammation, and metabolic syndrome (a triple whammy of hypertension, high triglycerides, and extra weight around your middle). You can get D from sun exposure, but depending on your skin tone and how far north you live, that can be tough in winter months (plus, too much sun ups your risk of skin cancer and wrinkles).
Getting vitamin D from food is also a challenge fortified milk, fatty fish, and eggs are recommended sources. Most of us will have to rely on a supplement to meet the goal of 600 IU a day set by the Institute of Medicine, or the higher amount 1,000 IU that many other experts advise.

Video-Recorded Arrestee Disputes Police Account

Posted to: Legal Notices
The cops got it all wrong, Horace Rawlings insisted: He's a lover. Not a fighter. And he can't wait for the public to see the video.
Of course, he added, if he really had punched a cop after the bars let out, they would have known it. He boxes, after all.
"If I hit you," Rawlings said, "you are gonna swell up. You are gonna have lumps."
But two nights in a row the cops set him up, he said. The first night they kicked him bloody while he was handcuffed, he said. He insisted he never attacked them. He vowed that a bystander's video will bear him out.
The police tell a different story. They accuse Rawlings of causing havoc two nights in a row at club-closing hour, defying orders, fighting officers and raining profanity on them. The officer accused of stomping Rawlings' bloody head has said the video will bear out his side.
Now the FBI is trying to get to the bottom of what happened. After seeing the above photo in the Independent of Sgt. Chris Rubino's foot on his neck and reading eyewitness accounts of cops allegedly beating him while handcuffed, the agency opened a civil-rights investigation. (Read about that here.) Three agents came to Rawlings' Bridgeport home to interview him.
And the video in question is at the center of a New Haven police internal investigation and a high-profile test case of the department's seriousness about enforcing an order against limiting citizens' rights to record officers' actions and against locking them up in the process. (Read about that here.)
"Everything Was Blurry"
Rawlings, who's 24 and from Bridgeport, came to Pulse nightclub on New Haven's Chapel Street the night of Friday, June 1, to celebrate with friends, he said. One friend recently graduated from the University of Bridgeport. That ceremony took place at Harbor Yards, where Rawlings gets event-related work, he said.
The group left Pulse as it was letting out around 1:45 a.m. Saturday. People poured out the bar's back door onto the Temple Street courtyard, one of several trouble crowd spots on weekends in the nightclub district.
As usual, it was a confusing, jam-packed scene. Police received a report that a member of Rawlings' party had inappropriately touched a woman inside Pulse. The man was trying to get back in. Police said they had to repeatedly tell him to stay out of the club. They claim he refused, swore at them, tried to get back in. They cuffed him and arrested him.
Meanwhile, people told Rawlings what happened. He and others approached to police to ask what happened to their friend.
At this point, the two stories—the police story and the Rawlings story, backed up in part by three eyewitnesses—diverge.
The police version, according to cops present at the scene:
People crowded around the man being arrested as bar patrons flooded onto the plaza. Officer Matthew Silvestrini told the arrested man's friends they can meet him at the police station. They told the friends to leave the plaza. Rawlings refused. He yelled at them. He refused repeated commands to leave.
Sgt. Rubino, the police supervisor of the downtown bar district, stepped forward. He warned Rawlings one last time. Then he informed he was being arrested. Grabbing his arm, Rubino began to put on handcuffs; Rawlings kept fighting. Officer Josh Kyle came to help. Kyle punched Rawlings, then the two cops tackled him. A fight continued; a crowd closed in to watch. Back-up officers arrived. The cops got the handcuffs on Rawlings.
Still he kicked and fought. Kyle held his fight; Rubino claimed he put his foot on Rawlings' "back." All the while he swore at the cops at the top of his voice. The cops finally got him under control. They brought him to the station and charged him with interfering with a police.
Rawlings' version, offered during an interview Monday. Wearing a camouflage cap, short-sleeved shirt and jeans, he spoke in calm tones of contained outrage:
He wanted to bail out his friend quickly. Because he's not from New Haven and hasn't spent much time here (except for occasional runs to Popeye's on Whalley before a Milford outpost opened), he didn't know where he'd be able to find his friend. So he asked a cop. "I didn't speak nasty to the officer," he claimed. "I already knew how they do people."
The cop got "super-hostile." A second came and punched him. He got dizzy as they cuffed him, twisting his arms and his wrists behind his back.
"There was no way I could resist," he said. "They way they had my arms, it hurt my wrists."
Then "the stomp fest began." The officers took turns kicking his head and neck and striking him. His cheek and mouth were bleeding. He was spitting blood.
Yes, he said, he was swearing at them by this point.
"I was so pissed off. They're really doing this to me? All I could do was look up. I see flashing lights. Everything was blurry. I see people yelling, 'Stop! Stop!'"
And he saw cameras.
People were whipping out cellphone cameras to record the action. One of them, Devon Youmans, said he started recording a video (at left) after seeing Rawlings get punched and then, while handcuffed, struck by officers. He stopped recording when the cops ordered people to put away their cameras and leave the scene. He left, he said, before the alleged subsequent beating began. (Read his comments in this story.)
One woman leaving Pulse, Tamara Harris, stuck around. She shot the photo of Rubino (at the top of this story) appearing to show Rubino's foot on Rawlings' neck. Harris told the Independent she saw Rubino and company "step on his head," knee his back, and generally "roughhouse" him while he was handcuffed.
Harris's friend, Jennifer Gondola of Ansonia, kept video-recording the scene. She said she recorded Rubino beating Rawlings bloody while he remained handcuffed. Then Rubino took a pause, approached her, looked at the video, and demanded the camera. She put it in her bra. Rubino ordered a female officer to snatch the camera out of the bra. He pocketed the camera and ordered Gondola arrested for "interfering." "I would never have let her leave with that phone," Rubino later told the Independent. "Do you think anybody ever turns anything in in favor of the police? She would have never brought that in. I took that because it was in my favor."(Click here and here for stories with their differing versions of the incident.)
After spending the night in the 1 Union Ave. lock-up, Rawlings was released Saturday on a promise to appear in court. He went the house in Bridgeport where he lives with his dad and siblings. (He grew up in the projects, he said.)
As the FBI now examines Gondola's camera to review the video (if it still exists), people on all sides wait to see for themselves who was right.
Horace Rawlings, perhaps most of all, as he awaits a court date next week on what ended up being just misdemeanor charges stemming from his encounter with the cops that night: disorderly conduct; and interfering with an officer/resisting arrest.
Next-Night Rerun
Rawlings will also answer the same two charges a second time on that court date, stemming from a similar incident in the bar district the very next night.
It happened outside the Center Street Lounge as it let out around 2 a.m. Sunday.
Here's what police described as happening:
Shots rang out near the club. Cops responded.
At the scene two men uninvolved in the shooting were shouting at some women. The two men were Horace Rawlings and one of his younger brothers. The cops told them to pipe down and stay away from the crime scene. The brothers refused. Rawlings' brother yelled obscenities at the cops, calling one of them a "rookie-ass nigger." They entered the actual crime scene.
Rawlings allegedly punched Officer Carlos Conceicao as he moved to arrest the brother. The cops arrested both of them. The brothers continued yelling obscenities and taunts (such as: "You guys are mad because I got a big dick and I fuck your girls").
Here's Rawlings' version, as told in Monday's interview:
He went to Center Street to have fun with his brother Stilen. Despite all the problems he had had the night before. Despite the bruises and welts on his face and arms.
"Females that see me, they didn't have a problem," he said. "I go out to get ladies and have a good time. ... I'm a ladies' man."
He and Stilen were walking away from the crime scene, not toward it, Rawlings insisted. "I'm not trying to get beat up two nights in a row." A cop came running by and knocked into him. Then the cop accused him of bumping him.
Rawlings asked a second cop at the scene if he'd seen that.
"I didn't see shit," he claimed the second officer responded. "You're the guy that got arrested last night." The cops arrested both brothers.
Rawlings was told in the interview that police accused him of throwing a punch.
"Oh my God! I need a lie-detector test!" he responded. "I punched an officer? I punched an officer?
"If I had punched an officer, I would have tried to put him on the moon," continued Rawlings, who said he boxes regularly.
"He punched me," Conceicao repeated Tuesday. He described it as a "hammer punch" to stop the officer from approaching the brother, who "was the bigger mouth."
Conceicao said at the time his ears were ringing from the gunshots, which occurred "closer than 20 yards away from us. It was out of control. Your level of awareness and adrenaline is so high. Then these two kids are backpedaling toward us. [I said,] 'Guys, you guys can't go this way. Go that way.'" Then the brother flipped out, Conceicao said.
Conceicao said he had not recognized Rawlings from the night before. Conceicao had been on Hamilton Street working outside the Van Dome nightclub, not in the Temple courtyard, when the video-recorded events occurred.
A Hug Looms
At first, Rawlings said, he didn't expect the people video-recording his first encounter with the police in the Temple courtyard to be much help.
Bystanders had also video-recorded an encounter he had with Bridgeport police back in 2007. He and his brother were walking on the street when a cop grabbed his brother and arrested him. They told Rawlings to leave. Instead Rawlings insisted on waiting and watching. Police charged that he fought them. They arrested him along with his brother. He claimed they threw him to the ground and had a police dog attack him. (He displayed what he said are permanent scars on his arm, pictured, from the event.)
None of the people recording the incident would share their videos or pictures, Rawlings said. They were too scared of retribution, he said.
So he pleaded guilty to resisting arrest and interfering with cops, and received a one-year suspended sentence. (He also pleaded guilty to a 2008 misdemeanor marijuana possession charge, and a subsequent probation violation.) The alternative to fighting the 2007 interfering arrest was to fight the charges with no independent back-up and risk five years in jail, he said.
So Rawlings was thrilled to learn that Jennifer Gondola came forward publicly to defend her video-recording of the Temple courtyard, he said. He said he believes that gives him a shot at justice.
"I thought they were going to get away with this" based on his prior experience, he said.
"Everyone's scared of stuff like this. She's a hero," he said of Gondola. "I want to meet her. I want to give her a hug."

Really? How many times has this kid been involved with the police outside a bar? Do you think there's a pattern here? Let me get this straight, this kid has a problem with the police, spends a night at the station, then goes to Center Street Lounge the next night? That place is a gang-banger, dealer hangout…case closed.

We need to see the video.
People, put a PASSWORD on your smartphone. Then at least if the cops take your phone, they can't delete anything on it themselves.
posted by: Curious on June 12, 2012 3:01pm
Tomago, however you slice it, that is a picture of Rubino's boot on Rawlings' face and head, from his chin to his ear. That is not his "back" as Rubino puts it, and it is not okay.
posted by: southwest on June 12, 2012 3:11pm
Ok,this kid version don't make sense at all. Everyone has an opinion and mine is he's telling a couple of "lies". He has had numerous contact with the police. I see a pattern here with him. The police should have used better restraint as far as Rubino putting his foot on his neck while cuffed that's a no no!!! Those bar scenes are out of control when they all close at the same time. There should be an ordinance where they are stagger like each one close every 15 minutes until closing time to eliminate some of the drama.
posted by: Jones Gore on June 12, 2012 7:35pm
So what he placed his foot on his head. What we see in the video is that the cop did not do what he was accused of doing by the woman from Ansonia. She said he kicking Rawlings in the and Rawlings was bleeding from the face.
She lied.
They both need to stay of New Haven.

Are you serious? In no way was that a "beat down". This guys sounds a bit cocky, being a "ladies man". Dude, a lengthy arrest record and attitude are not attractive qualities in a man. Agreed that Rubino should not have had his foot on the arrestees head BUT, if he was spitting (as said in Rubino's account) I would have done the same thing. Spitting is an assault, plain and simple. And, if you are not up close and personal, and not involved in making the arrest (plus have, oh say 5 or 10 drinks in you), it might be perceived differently. I agree with videotaping, perhaps scattered cameras throughout downtown to show how thousands act a fool at bar closing. These colleges that bus students into downtown (so they become New Haven's problem) should be paying to staff about 50 cops at bar closing. NHPD, do what you have to do to go home safe. You only get sued when you do your job.

And isn't it just "coincidental" that an '07 arrest in Bridgeport was also videotaped? Something seems fishy there!
posted by: HhE on June 12, 2012 9:27pm
Okay, I watched the video. Let me save the FBI a hole lot of hours, and the tax payers a bunch of money. Mr. Rawlings' rights were not violated.
What is the definition of insanity? Oh, right. Doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting a different out come. Here is a tip, if one cannot go out without getting arrested, stop going out.
posted by: GeeLow on June 13, 2012 6:28am
This guy is not a victim he's a a menace. As long as the public amd media dupport people like this, our city will have to deal with frivolous law suits, and complaints. Sgt Rubino did nothing wrong. I just saw the video. The kid was trying to get up and would not stop moving his arms when the cops were trying to cuff him. Can you imagine whay he was doing when he wad standing on his two feet prior to the filming?
posted by: JustAnotherTaxPayer on June 13, 2012 6:29am
Interesting that the arrestee has a pattern of bad behavior while in establishments that serve alcohol. Even more interesting is the repeat performance, two nights in a row, and the repeat of video-taping of his arrest as in 07. It would not be the first time someone has orchestrated an event, to provoke and arrest, and a use of force by police, in the hopes of a successful legal action. This is not unusual, and has happened numerous times.
The use of legal force is easily researched on the Internet, but most people do not like violence, even it is legal and being used by uniformed people who are educated and trained, and then programed to do something that is inherently unnatural.
But what are the options. There is a report of someone gropping women, intoxicated and out of control. This results in an arrest. His friend, who is a man practiced in violence, who interferes, to defend his right to grop woman. He is also intoxicated, and psychologically unstable.(Maybe it is just his adverse reaction to alcohol that makes him repeat behavior that ends in an adverse result)
He again resists, first physically, then verbally, then spitting blood.
How does one insure that someone out of control, defending someone who violates women in public, who is spitting saliva and blood in a crowded area does not have HIV? I ask the woman who pictures herself as some type of crusader would you be able to quicly move to insure no individual who does not even realise what is happening, does not have their life altered a year or two from this moment?
These are the issues running through the minds of the police officers as this is happening, in addition to a group of drunken, immature, young adults, who at the moment of bar closing have their egos inflated due to their alcohol consumption, their judgement impaired, and many feeeling frustrated as they did not end their night as they had wished.
It s a shame they cannot give each individual officer the benefit of the doubt, which they claim to do for all people.

You hit the nail on the head taxpayer! She tried to make it seem like she was so right when, in reality, she was trying to incite more. "they're going to "F" you up when you get down to the station" and, at 1:29, "I got you". She also sounded like she had a few drinks in her. And yes, someone spitting (be it saliva or blood) is a threat. Guy isn't familiar with New Haven yet he's there 2 nights in a row? It sounds like he sobered up, realized that the previous night's video was a joke, then went back downtown to attempt a "better" video. Sad and pathetic. I always dreaded working bar detail. You can't deal with young, immature, disrespectful and intoxicated people (x 1000) rationally. Plus, they all think they are street lawyers. And yes, they should be cut off from the alcohol at a certain point. Heaven forbid the bars make less money.

Mr. Rollings - why in the world did you go back to NH the next night. For some of the players in this horrendous Greek tragedy, I think it might be time to go to a meeting that staarts with two capital letters.

I was more than ready to believe that Sgt. Rubino was wrong—until I read Mr. Rawlings' best possible spin.
Forgive me for not saying as elegantly as the great philosopher Thomas Hobbes did, but when violence is offered, how does one know one's alliant will stop at simple battery? Aggravated assault? Or go all the way to murder?
Mr. Rawlings is obviously fit, self professed to be a very good boxer, and has tattoos on his neck.

Energy and environment record
For more information on environmental legislation, see the Energy and Environment Policy Portal
Rights, liberties and courts record
McMorris Rodgers voted for final passage of the USA Patriot Act and Terrorism Prevention Reauthorization Act of 2005[2] and has supported a constitutional flag burning amendment.
Controversial campaign contributions: Tom DeLay and Duke Cunningham
Former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay's ARMPAC contributed $5,000 to McMorris Rodgers's campaign in the 2006 election cycle. [1][2] To date, McMorris Rodgers has not returned the money or donated it to charity. [3] McMorris Rodgers voted with Tom DeLay 94% of the time between January 2005 and March 31 2006.[3]
- Main article: Tom DeLay
McMorris Rodgers has also accepted $1,000 campaign contributions during the 2006 election cycle from Representative Randy "Duke" Cunningham of California, who later pleaded guilty in a corruption case. McMorris Rodgers later gave the money to charity. [4]
Ethics rule changes following the DeLay rule change controversy
In late 2004, before Cathy McMorris Rodgers was sworn in, there was an effort by House Republicans to change an ethics rule that would require that indicted Republicans step down from any House leadership positions they might hold. This was done in order to protect Rep. Tom DeLay's (R-Texas) seat as House Majority Leader, as it appeared at the time that he was in danger of being indicted. The rule change, which came to be known as the "DeLay rule change" divided House Republicans, and at the start of the 109th Congress, was repealed.[4]
While repealing the DeLay rule change, Cathy McMorris Rodgers voted along party lines with House Republicans to pass legislation that would require a majority vote in the House Ethics Committee in order for an investigation to be launched.[5] Because the ethics committee was split evenly between Republicans and Democrats, this change effectively meant that either party could kill an investigation. Previously, a deadlocked vote would lead to an investigation, as it did when first launching investigations into DeLay. Democrats protested this change heavily, and later in the year, the rule was repealed.[6]
- Main article: House Ethics Committee#Rule changes
McMorris Rodgers was born May 22, 1969 in Salem, Oregon. She was educated at Pensacola Christian College (1990 BA, Pre-Law) and the University of Washington (Executive MBA, 2002). She worked as a Legislative Assistant and as the owner/operator of an orchard fruit stand before her entry into politics,
She served in the Washington State House of Representative for the 7th District from 1994-2004, and was the House Republican leader from 2002-2003.[5]
Congressional Career
2004 elections
In 2004 McMorris Rodgers defeated Democrat Don Barbieri for the 5th District seat in the U.S. House. The seat was formerly held by Republican George Nethercutt, who announced his retirement from the House in an ultimately unsuccessful bid for election to the U. S. Senate that year.
McMorris Rodgers's campaign promises included identifying economic opportunities for the Northwest region; improving access to quality, affordable health care; and keeping our communities and nation safe. [6]
She received 59.7% of the vote in the election.[7] During her campaign, she gained the endorsements of the following groups:
- Washington State Law Enforcement Association
- Washington State Farm Bureau
- Association of Washington Businesses
- Western Fish & Wildlife Federation
- Washington Property Rights Alliance
- Associated Builders and Contractors
2006 elections
In 2006, Democrats nominated Peter Goldmark to face McMorris Rodgers in her November 2006 bid for reelection. (See U.S. congressional elections in 2006) [7] McMorris Rodgers received 56.4% of the vote and retained her seat.
