"As shocking as the recent revelations about the NSA's domestic eavesdropping have been, there has been no evidence so far of today's signal intelligence corps taking a step like this, to monitor the White House's political enemies," wrote Matthew Aid and William Burr for George Washington University's National Security Archive, a research institute that seeks to check government secrecy. …extract from article
Really now!? I highly suspect that the now rogue NSA is so mismanaged and out of control that faceless bureaucrats within the agency have a program to monitor even the President's phone calls and his alleged 'secure' emails in these Orwellian end times for the Republic.
When a government becomes everso corrupt as in our time; everyone is suspect. No doubt, their in house motto is: "trust no one".

Wii U
UPDATED POLL: 3rd party developers abandoning Wii U, who do you blame?

Nintendo. The generation-behind hardware trick wasn't going to work a second time, because the Wii had an extremely unique interface that played on people's curiosity, so unique in fact that it even brought in a lot of people that didn't normally give a care in the world about video games. Meshing a low-grade tablet (single touch is honestly going to confuse some people with how many multitouch devices exist and are in everyday use by people) and a basic game controller together is not nearly as appealing and putting it behind decade-old primary-console tech is not nearly as exciting. Most of the software was available for a long time on other platforms and the gamepad does very little to reinvigorate those titles. Still, I like my WiiU, and think there's potential there beyond just Nintendo first-party games (the only real reason I got mine, plus Monster Hunter 3U and Bayonetta 2 exclusivity), but I don't exactly think it's the consumer's fault that they're not too excited. | |

icarus231 posted... DarkAdonis123 posted...squatch22 posted...Activision releases Cod late, doesnt bother to release DLC.

Edit: According to the info here, Blops 2 came out November 13, 2012. http://www.gamefaqs.com/xbox360/669289-call-of-duty-black-ops-ii And for Wii U at launch, which was November 18, 2012. http://www.gamefaqs.com/wii-u/683297-call-of-duty-black-ops-ii So like I said, it was less than a week. --- If Platinum was HAND drawn, she'd be on paper, fool.

I love the whole line of real technique brushes!!! I love using this brush for setting my under eye concealer! You could also use this for applying highlighter to the face! Love that it's soft and easy to clean! Definitely would repurchase and check out the other brushes! :)
I use this brush mainly to set my under eye area with translucent powder after I have concealed. Sometimes I will use it for applying highlighter.
It is fairly small which works great to get right up into the eye area and for placing highlighter precisely where I want it. The quality of this brush is really good and I would go as far to say its better than most of the low price range brushes we can buy here in Australia. The bristles are made out of Taklon (synthetic) which are great as it can be used for liquid/cream and powder products. The handle is a gorgeous pink with a metallic finish and the rubberized end is good for holding the brush and standing it upright on surfaces.
Absolutely love this brush, I would definitely recommend this.

I love this brush! I use it for applying powder over my under eye concealer. It is really soft, and a great size for small areas. It picks up plenty of product so I tap off quite a bit of product. For the price it is a great buy. I definitely recommend.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Great little brush- if you buy sight unseen- it is small but you can get an appreciation of the scale if you watch any of Sam's videos on her site, which was a great idea.
I find it maybe one of the less softer brushes in the RT range but it's fine, not rough just not feather soft like the buffing or expert face brushes. I find it a really versatile brush for powders that need applied in small, directed areas. Whether that is highlighter or face powder. You can even use it for powder blushes if you like to use the smaller surface area for a sculpted and directional application.
Like all the RT brushes- it feels well made, doesn't shed and is easily washed/fast drying.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I bought this because I wanted a small face brush for contouring and this does that job and more. It is marketed as a setting brush, which it does very well - I have dry skin so only really use powder to set my undereye concealer and, if needed, through my T zone - the small size with a tapered head makes this brush amazing for this task as it only puts powder where you want. Oh, and it won't disrupt your concealer because it is so soft and precise. It is fantastic for highlighting and contouring for the same reason, it allows an unparalleled sense of control. Overall a very underrated and fantastic brush!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Thank you Sam Chapman for creating this brush. There has long, long been a gap in the market when it comes to brushes smaller than a blush/contour, but bigger than a domed eye blender brush. The only two I have had that came close were the MAC 225 (perfect, but discontinued, natch) and EDM eye kabuki (slightly too dense for a setting brush, but has its uses).
I needed, craved, a brush for setting of undereye concealer with powder and subtle highlight of cheekbones, that was not too big and not too small. I also didn't want to pay the Hakuhodo prices, awesome as they may be. Apparently Ms Chapman noticed the dearth of this type of brush too, as I've noticed in her earlier videos mentioning that the MAC 225 was discontinued and MAC always discontinue the good brushes. Enter the RT Setting Brush.
Perfectly sized for the undereye area, effective yet light as a feather for a sweep of setting powder like LM Secret Brightening Powder, it applies perfectly without dislodging any concealer underneath. Tapered and slightly flat it fits into the sides of the nose between the eyes. Synthetic bristles, dries overnight after washing. As with all RT brushes a very reasonable price, and praise be doesn't come in a set so you can buy this on its own merits and not be stuck with other ok-but-not-as-great brushes.
I have built a collection of RT brushes without even noticing, they just do their job quietly, effectively and without a huge price tag. This deserves as much hype as the buffing brush, if only for the fact it's sold as single brush!
15 out of 15 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I have a love affair with these brushes. They're great bang for your buck! I believe this one I bought individually and it took me a while to but because it was always sold at at the three ultas in my area. I bought it not really doing my research as to what I would use it for. Trial and error sometimes works better for me when testing out products. I personally prefer to use this as my go to highlighter brush, but i also like to use it with ben nye powder or laura mercier brightening powder under the eyes and as a contour brush to use around my nose. I need to buy another one or two to use for the latter two purposes.
Soft and dense
Relatively cheap (esp if you use the ulta coupon)
Unique size & shape
I can use it with powder or liquid products (though I find it blends powder effortlessly and liquid takes a bit more work)
Overall good quality
None that I can think of at this moment other than it was hard for me to find but that's not really an issue with the product itself.
A fun brush to have in the mix. I like the shorter handle size and the durable synthetic hairs really keep their shape, so Real Techniques are the brushes that go into my makeup bag on the go, since they are not precious or $$$. It's a good versatile size I use for undereye and around the nose setting, but it is slightly too dense for a light powder application, so I definitely tap a lot of powder off the brush before I apply the brush to my face. I do like the unique size though; this small to medium size is hard to find in the brush world!

Great for under eye setting or for highlighting. Super soft and pretty, the handle is really comfortable
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I love Real Techniques brushes but this is the only one I'm not so fussed about. It's lovely and soft like all the others, but not as dense (which is pretty necessary for a setting brush really). I did at first use this with my Ben Nye loose powder under my eyes and on my chin but it didnt pack the colour in enough for me, it just felt like it was dusting it around a bit.
It's too soft to use for much else in my opinion, as I use a lot of cream products including cream blush and highlighter. I might try this with some blusher for contouring but other than that I never pick it out of my brush jar. But I got it for free in the 3 for 2 at Boots so it's not all bad!

You all say that "this didnt happen back in the day" and "where were these teachers when we were in school?". This kind of stuff was going on 40 years ago but there were no cell phones so as long as the teacher and the student kept their mouths shut, no one would ever know.

I bought this perfume purely on the basis of other reviews by Perfume X customers. I had never even smelled it before. I took a risk because some said it was a powerful fragrance. Heavy perfumes give me a head ache but I trusted the fact that people said it would soften over time: and it does just that. My daughters loved it on me. I only spray two squirts in the morning and it lasts all day. However, the perfume is great but it's not the real star for me.... this website is! I ordered five different perfumes for Christmas presents for my family at a great price. I love this site and the best bit is I didn't get nabbed for customs duty which meant my purchases were a real bargain. Thankyou. I have recommended you to all my friends.

Luxurious, but not heavy !
This product is good for daily use. The scent is luxurious, but not heavy. From this product, I feel classical something, but modernized. The orangeblossom scent is so cute.

Comments about Gucci Perfume:
I had been looking for this perfume for some time and this site was the only place that had it! A lovely departure from the typical fruity-florals, sugar bombs and synthetic clones that pass nowadays as perfumes. Soft, spicy, smoky and a little sweet, dries down to a yummy (but lasting) skin scent. Not the type of fragrance that's for everyone, but the perfect one for me. Love it.

So here is a brief look back on 2012 for me.
Monday, December 31, 2012
Look Back on 2012
It's been interesting to read blogs and see what people showcased for 2012. I did a lot of skirts and tops this past year with a few dresses thrown in. I hope to add one more skirt to 2012; sewing plans yesterday were interrupted by stomach virus, so no sewing as planned. Today is much better and glad to end the year, feeling well.
So here is a brief look back on 2012 for me.
So here is a brief look back on 2012 for me.
This was two spring/summer projects that were the most time consuming for me to sew. The color blocked dress was Vogue 8805. A fairly popular dress among many sewists. I underlined the cream and pink areas as the fabric was rather sheer. The yellow outfit and particularly the top was another popular pattern, the peplum top, Vogue 8815. The skirt is McCall's 5523. The skirt has been a favorite of mine but only made one from it for 2012.
I made additional skirts and will showcase another favorite skirt pattern below. Vogue patterns and I have a good relationship. The patterns seem to fit me better and I have gotten their sizing down to what works for me and basically can make the same adjustments for each pattern. The black/white/gray skirt on the left is Vogue 8750. I made this skirt in 2011 and decided to make it again in 2012 with this fabric which was from Fabric Mart. The other skirt is a Vogue pattern also, very similar to a Butterick pattern I have sewn several times in the past. This fabric was from Jo Ann's.
This is becoming my quick sew skirt pattern and plan to make another one today. This is the Magic Pencil Skirt. It is cut and ready to go. This is such a simple skirt to make and requires fabric with some stretch. I think you could do woven as well just go a size larger. I see more of this one for 2013 for me. I also have made a couple of Pamela's Pattern top's as well.
And last but not least is
Vogue 8669. I made four of these, with one being a test garment. The brown metallic will be worn this evening for New Year's. I just love the drape of the neckline and it works so well with jackets for work.
There were a few more skirts sewn. No photos of me wearing so thought not to post those.
Thank you all for taking time to read my blog this year. Your comments and feedback was and is important to me. The sewing blog sphere has created many opportunities to meet many of you, if not in person, at least through cyber connections. Wishing each and everyone a Happy and Healthy New Year!

Victoria Beckham
Victoria Beckham is married to soccer superstar David Beckham and often confuses herself with royalty. Victoria Beckham, AKA Posh, rose to fame with the Spice Girls before marrying David and having two adorable little boys. Spice Girls reunion tour Posh
She's always on the go, so Vogue sent a writer over to Victoria Beckham's newly-opened retail store in London to ask her 73 questions.
The interviewer asked, "What's the first thing you do when you wake up in the morning?" and she answered, "I check on my kids." As for a daily ritual, Victoria explained, "I'm up at 6am working out."
He's quickly making a name for himself in the modeling industry and Brooklyn Beckham certainly loves being in front of the camera.
The 15-year-old stud-in-the-making posted a few photographs via Instagram with his famous parents David and Victoria Beckham during their New Year's vacation in the Maldives and they all look picture perfect. Brooklyn captioned the shots, "Great new year party with family and friends," followed by "Cooking with Benoit hahah."
She's always on the cutting edge of every trend, though if the cropped coif ever makes a comeback, it's not likely that Victoria Beckham will jump on the bandwagon. The former Spice Girl told Elle that she'll keep her tresses long and flowing for the foreseeable future.
Victoria explained, "I loved my hair short, but the great thing about having long hair is you can do so much more with it. It's a lot easier."
Making her Friday morning rounds (December 12), Victoria Beckham showed up on Dover Street in London, England. The former Spice Girl made sure she looked flawless before she stepped out onto the street in her chic white sweater and marble rose full-length wool skirt with claret heeled boots and a leather envelope clutch bag.
Earlier this month, Posh was honored with the Best Brand Award at the 2014 British Fashion Awards, and she gave props to her handsome husband David Beckham.
Her instinct is invaluable when it comes to fashion and Victoria Beckham has a brand new initiative in the works with Nails Inc.
The former Spice Girl will launch a limited edition nail polish collection for her Victoria label, with pre-ordering slated to begin on Monday (December 8).
She's always up for a good cause and Victoria Beckham put her design skills to work as a new UNAIDS Global Goodwill Ambassador.
The former Spice Girl created a t-shirt for World AIDS Day in order to raise money for awareness and research efforts.
Making the most of their Monday night (December 1), a host of famous faces flooded into the London Coliseum for the 2014 British Fashion Awards.
Fan favorites David and Victoria Beckham caused quite a stir with their arrival, sporting their red carpet finery and a pair of beautiful smiles as they posed for photos.
They certainly know how to attract attention, and all eyes were on David and Victoria Beckham as they arrived at the 60th London Evening Standard Theatre Awards in London last night (November 30).
The handsome English soccer star was dapper in a black tuxedo as he escorted his fashion designer wife into the London Palladium ahead of the evening's festivities.
Giving fans a special treat, Victoria Beckham stopped by her boutique in Selfridges on Wednesday afternoon (November 19).
The successful fashion designer put on her usual serious face as she posed for photos in a black-and-white ensemble in the Manchester, England location.
Boosting the local economy, Victoria Beckham treated herself to a round of retail therapy in Paris, France on Friday (November 7).
Joined by a friend, the former Spice Girl-turned-high-end designer hit up the Celine boutique before making her way to L'Avenue for more fabulous apparel.

I have been out of high school for many years. Do I have to take the ACT test?
It doesn't matter how long a student has been out of school, the ACT test is still required. Everyone admitted to ECU who has attempted 24 hours or less is required to take it.
I have been to several different colleges and all of my course work is on my last transcript. Do I have to request a transcript from each school that I've attended or can you accept this one?
Even though the course work from each school is on your last transcript, you are still required to request an official transcript from each school to be sent to the Admissions Office.
How many hours will you accept from my two-year college?
East Central University will accept up to 64 hours toward the 124 hour requirement from any previous two-year colleges attended. Sixty hours must be taken from a senior college to receive a degree.
How do I know which classes are going to transfer?
All hours from accredited institutions will transfer to East Central. Some will transfer only as elective hours and some will equate to specific courses. Your advisor will assist you in knowing how transfer courses will apply toward degree requirements.
Do zero-level courses count in my gpa?
Zero-level courses do not count in the gpa, regardless of whether you pass or fail them. You will not receive any credit hours for zero-level courses.
My transcript from my previous school is based on quarter hours. How will those hours convert to semester hours?
The number of quarter hours is multiplied by 2/3 to equal semester hours.
I need help choosing a major. Is there anyone I can talk to?
For general questions about choosing a major, or deciding on your career path, you can contact our Career Center in Rm. 152 of the University Center.
If I withdraw from my classes this semester, can I still enroll next semester?
When a student withdraws from a semester, it does not mean that he/she withdraws from the university, nor does it affect any previous or future semesters. You are only withdrawing (dropping classes) from the semester you indicated on your myECU portal or your withdrawal card (if applicable).
How do I drop or add a class?
If a student wants to add or drop a class, he/she should log on to their myECU portal and follow the steps to do so. The Financial Aid Office must sign your card if you are changing status.
If I don't pay my tuition by the due date, will I automatically be canceled?
Students who do not pay their tuition by the due date are not automatically canceled. If you want your enrollment canceled, please send written, signed verification [by fax, mail or email] with a photocopy of a picture id or driver's license requesting us to do so.
I took classes at a career tech center. Will my hours transfer as college credit?
East Central University does not accept any course work granted by a career tech center.
Do I have to pay an application fee?
All undergraduate students who have never attended East Central University will be required to pay a $20 application fee at the time of submitting their Application for Admission. Graduate students aren't required to pay an application fee. (Graduate and undergraduate International students should pay the $50 application processing fee in lieu of the $20 application fee.
I will finish my course work this semester but I will not walk across the stage during graduation. Do I still have to pay the $50/$75 graduation fee?
Regardless if you attend the graduation ceremony, you must pay the $50 ($75 for master's) graduation fee. A hold will be placed on your record and you will not receive your diploma or an official transcript reflecting the degree without paying this fee.
My name is Jane Doe and I would like to know my grades. If I give you my social security number, will you give them to me over the telephone?
Confidential information about a student's grades, number of hours, major, etc. are not available over the telephone. However, you can access this information on the web by accessing MyECU through the ECU website. You must have your username and password in order to view them.
I moved and need to have my address changed. If I give you my new address, will you change it for me?
In order to have your address changed, you must update it yourself on our website. Click on this link for instructions, /sites/default/files/siteContent/administration/academic-affairs-programs/admissions-records/forms/documents/ADDRESSwebcopy-j.doc.
I took a class and made an F in it. If I retake the class again, will the F be removed from my transcript?
No grades are removed from a student's transcript. If a student retakes a class, it is recorded in the semester in which he/she re-takes it. A student may retake up to four courses in which he/she previously made a D or F (not to exceed 18 hours) to have the first grade removed from the gpa. Any course repeated more than one time will be averaged into your gpa.
I was born and raised in Oklahoma, but I moved to Texas about two years ago and just returned to Oklahoma. Will I have to pay out-of-state fees?
Yes, out-of-state fees will be charged. It takes one year to gain residency and one year to lose it. See the residency policy in the ECU Catalog for exceptions.
I live about an hour away. Is there any way I can enroll by phone?
East Central University does not take enrollments by phone; however, you may enroll online via your myECU portal. For more information, contact the Admissions & Records Office.
I was in the military for several years. How do I go about getting college credit for some courses I took there?
The student will need to provide certificates from any military schools attended, as well as a copy of their DD214 form. The information will be evaluated to determine if credit will be granted. In lieu of certificates, Army members may provide an AART transcript and Navy and Marine members may provide a SMART transcript.
I went to ECU for three semesters and sat out last semester. When I come back, will I be under the new catalog?
If a student is out of school for any period of time (not including summers), he/she will be subject to the requirements of the new catalog once they return. However, a student may petition to remain under the previous catalog. Information on how to petition may be obtained in the Office of Admissions and Records.
I just got married a month ago and need to change my name. I don't have my marriage license with me. Will my driver's license work?
To change your name on ECU records, you must submit the Name Change form, a copy of your photo id, marriage license or divorce decree, or any other legal documents showing proof of your name change and submit it to the Office of Admissions & Records. Click here for the "Name Change" form, /sites/default/files/siteContent/administration/academic-affairs-programs/admissions-records/forms/documents/NAME%20CHANGEwebcopy-j.doc
How many classes can I retake?
A student can retake up to four courses not to exceed 18 hours, without the reviewed courses counting against them. After retaking the allotted number of courses, all remaining courses retaken will be averaged into the student's gpa.
I went to a university back home and didn't do very well. Can I just start all over?
Students can get a fresh start in college if they did poorly at another school; however, any course work that was taken at other schools MUST be submitted. Failure to do so is falsification of records and is grounds for expulsion. Once all records are submitted, you may see if you qualify for a renewal. This will allow you to remove all coursework 5 years or older from your GPA.
What is an academic reprieve?
An academic reprieve is a policy in which up to two semesters may be removed from the gpa. The semesters must be consecutive and must be at least three years old or older. No grade below a C may appear on the transcript since those semesters and the student must have completed at least 12 hours following the semesters being reprieved. The student must be enrolled at ECU to request a reprieve. The reprieved work is not removed from the student's academic record. Graduate students and post-graduate students not pursuing a 2nd bachelor's degree or first-time teaching certificate will not be considered for an academic reprieve.
What is an academic renewal?
An academic renewal is a policy in which several semesters may be removed from the gpa. The renewal must begin with the very first semester and the semesters must be consecutive and at least five years old or older. No grade below a C may appear on the transcript since those semesters and the student must have completed at least 12 hours following the semesters being renewed. The student must be enrolled at ECU to request a renewal. The renewed work is not removed from the student's academic record. Graduate students and post-graduate students not pursuing a 2nd bachelor's degree or first-time teaching certificate will not be considered for an academic renewal.
What's the difference between cumulative and retention gpa?
East Central University uses the student's retention gpa, listed as "retn" on your transcript, for retention and graduation purposes. The retention gpa does not reflect courses that a student has retaken, reprieved, or renewed, whereas the cumulative gpa does. Cumulative gpa reflects everything you've ever taken without the benefit of the reviewed classes.

Friday, July 16
Busch Stadium
Attendance: 44,074
St. Louis, MO (Sports Network) - Yadier Molina belted a two-run homer and drove in four runs as St. Louis again used an offensive display to beat the Los Angeles Dodgers, this time by an 8-4 count at Busch Stadium.
Tyler Greene and Matt Holliday each had two hits and a run scored for the Cardinals, who won 7-1 in the opener of this four-game series Thursday night. St. Louis has a 19-4 home mark in the last 23 regular season games against the Dodgers.
Randy Winn added a pair of hits, including a two-run triple, in St. Louis' third consecutive victory.
"We've done a good job of getting the count in our favor and when the ball's in the strike zone we've been aggressive with it," Cardinals manager Tony La Russa said. "We've done a good job of forcing near the middle of the plate and getting good hacks."
Jaime Garcia started for the Cardinals, but left after allowing eight hits and two runs in 3 1/3 innings. Kyle McClellan (1-2) allowed one hit over 1 2/3 innings to get the victory.
Chad Billingsley (7-5) was charged with 10 hits and seven runs over four-plus innings.
"They put the ball in play, found holes and made things happen," Billingsley said. "It was one of those days."
James Loney had three hits and an RBI for the Dodgers, who lost left fielder Manny Ramirez in the first inning due to right calf tightness. He's considered day-to-day.
Ramirez was replaced in left field by Xavier Paul in the bottom of the first inning. Just one day after being activated from the disabled list, Ramirez walked in the first inning, but never came out to play the field.
It was during that opening inning the Cardinals grabbed a 3-0 lead. Colby Rasmus singled with one out and Holliday walked with two down. Winn followed with a triple to the right field corner and he scored on Molina's base hit to right.
Felipe Lopez singled in Skip Schumaker in the second before the Dodgers cracked the scoreboard in the next frame thanks to RBI base hits from Casey Blake and Loney.
St. Louis loaded the bases with nobody out in its half of the third after singles from Albert Pujols, Holliday and Winn, but only one run came home - on Molina's grounder that ended up being a force out at third.
Andre Ethier struck out swinging to end the top of the fourth, leaving two runners on base. The Cardinals made it 6-2 in their half after Greene scored on Rasmus' double-play grounder.
Holliday walked leading off the fifth, and one out later Molina homered to left off George Sherrill.
The Dodgers made one final push at a comeback, loading the bases with one out in the eighth. Jason Motte walked Rafael Furcal to force in a run and Matt Kemp followed with a sacrifice fly. Dennys Reyes was summoned from the bullpen, but uncorked a wild pitch. Ethier, though, grounded out to first to end the frame.

Although it's been years since I've gone – or have had any desire to go – to San Francisco Gay Pride, I'm making an exception today. The SCOTUS ruling on DOMA (the Defense of Marriage Act) is worth celebrating, even though the Court's inability to utter the words "discrimination against lesbians and gays, period, violates the Equal Protection Clause of the 5th and 14th Amendments," gives me great pause. The same goes as well for the Court's failure to state that any ban on gay marriage violates the Due Process clauses of those amendments.
I guess I shouldn't expect much from a Court that deems those long lines of African American and Latino voters during the 2012 election as democracy at its best. Where were the Bull Connors? the Court asks. The fire hoses and bombed churches? The violent white mobs? (I imagine some of them might very well be holding office or working at the polls. Times have changed, after all, and why wield a metal pipe when you could simply press a button and eliminate voters with the last name of Lopez? Or come up with a genius redistricting plan)?
Racism-blindness – the Court's true stance on questions of race, and which those who remain invested in racial subordination insist on calling "color-blindness" – continues to serve as the backdrop against which the Court expands or contracts the rights of others, as has historically been the case. The cynic in me believes that, had the justices been asked to consider the case of an old black lesbian forced to pay over $300,000 in estate taxes upon the death of her loved one (a truly unlikely scenario, by the way), Justice Kennedy – fresh from his Voting Rights Act concurrence – would have been hard pressed to recognize the "harm" or "dignity" interests that made him veer to the other side when it came to DOMA.
Let's not fool ourselves: the wealth/property and whiteness interests that informed Citizens United lurks somewhere in Kennedy's DOMA opinion, just as surely as they serve the color-blindness doctrine by which the Court gutted the Voting Rights Act.
I'm just sayin'.
But I'm going to Pride, nevertheless, because when I marry my partner (from time to time she likes to say "if" – if I marry you), I can at least look forward to her social security when she's dead and gone. Assuming, of course, that the Republicans won't have succeeded in raiding the Treasury by then.
And as inclined as I am to party my ass off today, I'm going to take it easy because today is also Sunday, a day that I refuse to eat. Since May 16th – the 100th day of the Guantanamo Bay hunger strike – I've dedicated my Sundays to no food, a choice I've made to express my solidarity with the prisoners at Guantanamo.
The 150th day of the strike is fast approaching, and with all the promises about prison closure coming from President Obama and my representative, Senator Dianne Feinstein, there seems to be no end in sight to the terrible injustice that is Guantanamo. So I'll be celebrating Pride, though on an empty and wailing stomach.
And since we're on the subject of Gay Pride:
I wonder if there are any gay prisoners in Guantanamo, if any of the men on strike is negotiating the terror of the closet with the terror of everyday life in that awful prison.
I wonder if any of the soldiers guarding the prison are gay. In my mind's eye I can see a young, white working class soldier reflecting on a phone conversation that he had with his partner earlier in the week about the SCOTUS decision on DOMA. I can hear their excitement about the decision and then their somber discussion about what it might mean if he's deployed to another dangerous part of the world. I can hear them become suddenly disappointed when they both realize that, as Oklahoma boys who want to remain in Oklahoma, they're not quite within the decision's reach.
I wonder if any of the guards is a Mexican American lesbian, and if she wonders whether or not her family in Texas will be able to vote. Or whether she'll be able to vote when she returns.
I wonder if any of the guards is an African American gay man, who's ecstatic that he and his partner – recently married in D.C. – will finally reap the benefits provided by the federal government to heterosexual married couples. I see him worry for his grandmothers – both of whom live in Florida, both of whom waited eight hours on a hot day in November to vote for Baraka Obama – who say that they plan to vote in the next election.
God willing.
I wonder what the prisoner and the soldiers would say to each other -- privately, of course, and perhaps out of earshot of the NSA -- about freedom, democracy, and pride in America.
But I digress.
Happy LGBT Pride.
Dr. Bramhall: I hope it doesn't come to that (violence), and I imagine it would take a lot more for us to get to that point. Thanks for your comment.

I was sitting back the other day thinking about all I have and the things I dont and what I would like to have.
The one thing that kept coming to the top of my list of what I wanted but did not have was a 1911.
I have owned and fired alot of firearms in my life but I have never owned my own 1911
My question is.
What company do I want to look for?
And what company do I want to stay away from?
I do not have a ton of money, but I want settle for the cheapest I can find by a long shot.
I want a great reliable, good shooter, well made NICE 1911 (45acp of course) that I can target shoot AND carry when I want to carry it.
I do not want to go low end and get some brand everybody knows to be sub-par. But at the same time I cant afford some of those high price tags you find. Best quality at the best value!
Any help you can lend me?
Brand List from best to worst?
+/- of some of the brands?
Average price for the brands etc..??
Thank you


text: 5 Awesome.Saundazzz | 11/07/2011 | See all Saundazzz's reviews (54)I bought this out of interest in the festival scene of the late 60s, being a huge fan of a lot of the music from that era, and hearing that this was the "last great festival" of it's time. I was neither alive at the time nor was I present at the festival so I cannot comment on whether it provides an accurate portrayal of the festival's (seemingly chaotic!) events. I did, however, thoroughly enjoy the film!The footage really has survived extrememly well and at times it is hard to believe you are watching footage that is over 40 years old, the sound quality is perfect too and the whole thing has been edited perfectly to give you a mixture of footage of musicians performing, as well as interviews from different people involved in the festival as well as it's attendees, those that paid and those that didn't!!The bands and performers in the film are among the best ever, The Doors, The Who, Hendrix, Joni Mitchell etc., and the makers of the film have selected their best known songs too, which is a nice touch as you can still recognise artists who you aren't all that familiar with.Overall I would say this is a brilliant film, which is a must have for fans of music from this era.9/10.

Two small bookstores that have a big place in my heart
Though hard economic times have led to lots of restaurant, café, and clothing store closures, it's rare that a Parisian bookstore fails. On the other hand, I've read with sadness and horror about the closings of many US bookshops – be they chain stores like Borders, or smaller locales.
I'm glad that two of my favorite independent bookstores in the US are still around to enjoy and visit today.
When I was a teenager, my dad and I took a trip to several spots in eastern Pennsylvania. We don't have a lot in common, and our destinations showed our disparate tastes: a microbrewery and Independence Hall for him; Philadelphia's Edgar Allan Poe House and the Museum of Art for me. But my dad had also come up with a surprise pit-stop near West Chester: Baldwin's Book Barn, an early 19th century barn that's been converted into a bookshop.
I was touched by my dad's thoughtfulness; Baldwin's Book Barn was like heaven for me. Five stories of crammed bookshelves and cozy corners. The books were antiques – a rarity in my life at the time. I ended up coming home with a boxful. I still have most of them; some I even brought with me to France.
Published in 1886, A Tramp Trip: How to See Europe on Fifty Cents a Day by Lee Meriwether fueled my travel hopes and dreams (though of course I knew it would cost me more than 50 cents a day to see Europe). It's still one of my most cherished books.
On the other hand, I have to admit that I bought this one, The Rise and Fall of the Mustache, mostly for its title, which always makes me chuckle.
Previous owners have written their names in both books, but what I found especially intriguing is the person who scrawled "Bought for the Good of the People" onto an opening page of The Rise and Fall of the Mustache.
I don't know if I would have done this today, but at the time when I bought these books, I felt so touched by the traces left by their previous owners, that I added the date and place I bought them, in very contemporary ballpoint pen.
Though Baldwin's Book Barn's website presents it as a convivial gathering place for bibliophiles and writers, when I was there, I paid no attention whatsoever to the people or activities going on around me. All I remember is the old floors and ceilings, and between them, shelves upon shelves of glorious old tomes. Utter bliss.
In a completely different setting, the Housing Works Bookstore Cafe, at 126 Crosby Street, New York, New York is another small bookshop I love.
One day, while exploring Soho, I came upon this warmly lit place. In a high-ceilinged cream-colored interior, books are elegantly arranged on wood-panelled shelves on the main floor and on the narrow balconies of a second floor, which is accessible by a charming spiral staircase. While many of the books are full price, there are discounted ones as well; I've found some great bargains here. On one wall of the bookstore is a café area where snacks and drinks are sold, and there are tables where you can sit and savor them while taking in your surroundings...or pouring over the pages of a book.
The Housing Works Bookstore Cafe is such a pleasant place to browse and pick up a book or two. Every time I visit New York, I make a stop here, and I always leave wishing I could live out the remainder of my life in a little corner of it. Apparently I'm not the only one who's fallen for the site; the space can be rented for catered events – including wedding receptions, giving me another idea for my dream wedding.
Me on the second floor of the Housing Works Bookstore Cafe
The best thing of all is that the money you spend here goes to Housing Works, an HIV/AIDS charity. So not only do you get to eat, drink, and read (and possibly get married) in a wonderful environment; you're helping others all the while.
I understand completely why bookstore chains exist, and I freely and unashamedly admit to sometimes spending money at Amazon.com and Amazon.fr, and chains like the FNAC and Gibert Joseph here in France. But nothing can beat the experience of entering an independent bookstore and feeling that special sensation, as if the books are closer to you somehow, a living presence. Without these places, the world would lose some of its magic.
I think there is nothing wrong with writing in a book. Your ownership of it is part of its history. Annotated volumes by writers are considered quite valuable. So carry on.
The books.. sigh.. I hae some of those back in Canada and wonder if my kids will appreciate them.
from entering a new bookstore is subsided,
and the almost feral hunger to EAT the books with my brain
is passed, I calm down and figure out where to settle my ass
on the floor crosslegged so as to get a good eyeview of all the titles
in my near vicinity. I sit scanning. I take stock of what I am gonna
grab when I decide to make my move. Suddenly,
jump up, grab some books,
plop down again and paw through my treasures
like a gorilla on speed. Anyone watching this is convinced
I am either a genius or a madman. I always need coffee for this.
The back of my throat screams for caffeine.
I am known to spill my coffee in my spastic movement of hands
over paper. I want everything. I decide : yes, I shall get everything.
Then I have to make the hard choice of what I NEED. argh.
congrats on the EP!
Miguela – Thank you – and the teenager I was would definitely agree with your thoughts on writing in books. So many of the books I bought then are covered in marginalia – even the date and time I started and finished reading a book. It's kind of cool to look back and see those things, but in the case of very old books, I still feel a bit like I'm trespassing. And yet, logically, I'm only continuing tradition. Writing this, I feel like I want to go inscribe my name into all of the books I own, even the antique ones! But another part of me is fainting on an imaginary divan. I am torn….
Jaime – Thanks. These two places really mean a lot to me. As for the wedding, I'm not really the marrying kind, but if I ever did get married, I'm really going to do my best to convince the boyfriend that the American part (we'd have to get married in each of our native countries, because we both have big, somewhat immobile families) should be at Housing Works Bookstore Cafe!
Sally – I agree completely. I knew the boyfriend was for me when he told me he collected antique books. That's the best way for a man to seduce me : -) As for "The Rise and Fall of the Mustache", it's a collection of humorous stories, one of which is the mustache tale in question. I have to admit, I've never read it – I've been trying all day to say why, and I think it's because, you know how books sort of call out to you to be read, or it just feels right to read them at certain times? This one hasn't, yet. But I feel sort of guilty about that, so maybe I'll read it soon – and when I do, I'll definitely tell you how it is!
Linda – I hope you'll be able to visit both of these places. What do you think about City Lights, by the way? When I was in San Francisco, I made a pilgrimage there, but was impeded by a few factors and so I didn't really get to take it in as I would have liked. Is it all it's cracked up to be?
Jeanette – They really are. I'm happy I had a reason to write about them; usually they're just there, in my mind's collection of "happy places"….
fernsy – Thanks – and I am glad someone thinks I look spiffy! I feel like I'm staring dully ahead (okay, I was sort of distracted by the books) and the coat doesn't fit me right, and those boots were the only ones I could find that year that fit tight to the calves (I have massive calves and can't wear formless boots) and they are too big in the feet. And my nose is red because it's cold outside!
Seth – I'm so glad you know about Housing Works and how cool it is. And you're so lucky you get to go there a few times a year! For me, it's only once, if that (sometimes I don't get to the New York area).
Stim – Oh, they are indeed!
James – You make me think of a quote from my favorite book, "A Little Princess": "'She doesn't just read books, Miss Minchin, she devours them.'"
Sarah – Thank you! I really do love these two bookstores.
Pauline – Thanks so much. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Blue – Oh yeah, Baldwin's Book Barn is definitely worth the trip!
Firechick – Oooh, what a cool idea that would be!!! Yet another trip I want to take….
Christine – That is delightful! I always thought I'd meet and fall in love with someone in a bookstore. It just seems like the perfect place for that kind of thing. But alas, I never have…. I'm glad you got to live the dream!
Mark – How wonderful to have known someone who's done so much for others.
Brazen Princess – I'm so glad you enjoyed this little journey – I thought the OC was a great way to celebrate these two places I love so much!
Manhattan – Thank you, and you should definitely check out Housing Works – it's a lovely place. As for Parisian bookstores, I may one day write a post about them, but I felt like this OC would be better used to highlight bookstores that could one day face closure. No one knows what the future holds, but generally bookstores in Paris do well enough to stay in business, which is a real blessing. If you're really hankering for a post about Paris bookstores, I'd highly recommend Matt Paust's latest piece, about Shakespeare & Company.
designanator – Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed this post, and I'm so happy you'll check out Housing Works Bookstore Cafe – it's just such a wonderful place.
Karin – Housing Works is definitely a magical place, and what I love is that whatever you spend goes towards helping others.

Londonderry painter makes bit of a splash in Hollywood
"Beach Dunes," one of a matching pair of oil paintings created by Londonderry artist Elaine Farmer, will grace the set of a new ABC television series. |
On one of her regular visits to Daytona Beach, where some of Farmer's relatives live, the quiet beauty of the dunes at day's end mesmerized the painter during an evening stroll with one of her cousins.
"The sun was going down and the light was just casting these amazing shadows," said Farmer, who teaches art classes at her Londonderry home studio. I just began snapping away with my camera because I knew this needed to be painted."
As it turns out, Farmer created not one but several works of art based on her impromptu dune photographs.
And like many of her other paintings, the "Beach Dunes" series ended up being posted on the Fine Art America website, an online marketplace featuring the works of thousands and thousands of artists both living and dead.
Knowing in the back of her mind that Fine Art America has a licensing agreement with ABC/Disney Studios, Farmer knew there was a very, very remote possibility her work could be seen by some big folks in Hollywood, though she really didn't give the matter much thought when she signed onto the site two years ago.
"I really never expected anything to happen," Farmer said. "I was just hoping to sell some of my art."
So when she got a call from the producers of ABC's new television pilot "Betrayal" last Monday, Farmer was ecstatic, to say the least.
With two reproductions of her dune paintings sold to ABC (one of the original paintings had already gone to its new owner), Farmer signed a contract for an undisclosed amount with the television conglomerate allowing them to use prints of her paintings as props on the Hollywood set.
The new television series is currently under production, according to the ABC television website, and is expected to premiere sometime this fall.
However, like any series starting out, the future is somewhat uncertain.
"Whether we'll actually see this show or not remains to be seen," Farmer said with a laugh.
But that doesn't dampen Farmer's excitement in the least.
"The funny part of it is that my son is in Hollywood right now trying to pursue his dream of writing and directing," Farmer said. "And here I am in Londonderry, not even trying."

VIVUS Announces Commercial Supply Agreement With Sanofi To Produce Avanafil
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Aug. 1, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- VIVUS, Inc. (Nasdaq:VVUS) today announced that it has entered into a Commercial Supply Agreement with Sanofi Chimie ("Sanofi"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Sanofi, to manufacture and supply the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) for avanafil on an exclusive basis in the United States and other territories and on a semi-exclusive basis in the European Union and Latin America. The companies had entered into a technology transfer agreement earlier in the year and have been actively working on the transfer of the avanafil API manufacturing process since that time. Pending completion of the transfer, VIVUS intends to submit amendments to the approved avanafil regulatory applications to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) to include Sanofi as a qualified supplier of avanafil API. The companies are also working on the qualification of Sanofi as a bulk tablet manufacturer for avanafil.
"Sanofi was the logical choice for avanafil API manufacturing," stated Theodore Broman, vice president, chemistry manufacturing and control, VIVUS, Inc. "Their world-class manufacturing capabilities and facilities are well-suited to undertake the worldwide production of avanafil."
