Six years on death row dims 'Flame' A day in the life of a death row convict
Russian justice: Soviet collapse leaves killer's appeal against execution in judicial limbo
Wednesday 03 January 1996
Imagine. You are kept alone in a narrow, windowless cell which you never leave, not even for a short walk in the prison yard. Every time you hear a footfall in the corridor, you think the guards are coming to take you for execution. Your relatives visit you occasionally and each time you say a tearful farewell. And this goes on for six years.
Such is the hellish existence of Nikolai "The Flame" Pozhedayev, on death row in the town of Yelets in central Russia. "Don't get the wrong idea," said Yuri Frolov, acting governor of Yelets prison. "This guy is no national hero. He is a real killer."
But even the prison authorities feel that the cruel limbo in which he is being kept is a violation of human rights.
Pozhedayev earned his nickname when he took the leading part in a brutal gang murder of three men travelling in a lorry. The killers robbed their victims before burning them in their vehicle. For this, in December 1989, Pozhedayev was sentenced to death. The other members of the gang each received the maximum jail term in Russia - 15 years.
The Russian justice system is much simpler than that in America, where death row inmates can spend years appealing to higher and higher courts. Here, the prisoner has one chance, a direct appeal to the President, and if that fails he can expect a bullet in the back of the head to follow fairly swiftly.
And so, after he was sentenced, Pozhedayev appealed to the then Soviet president, Mikhail Gorbachev, and received a refusal. Knowing the system, he understood that he had, at most, only a few weeks left to live and he composed his mind as best he could. Then the Soviet Union collapsed. He was told to appeal again to the new Kremlin leader, Boris Yeltsin. He has been waiting for a reply ever since.
What can you ask a man in this situation? "How do you feel?" As I was taken into his cell to meet him, I remembered that Pozhedayev had seen no woman except his mother for six years. Pale-faced and dressed in the distinctive navy and grey striped uniform of a smertnik [death-row prisoner], he stood to attention as I entered. The guards hovered in the doorway.
But there was no threat. He was infinitely more afraid of me than I was of him. Perhaps I had come to announce his death.
Timidly, I requested an interview. He asked for an hour to marshal his thoughts. I just had time to notice the tight mesh over the window, blocking out all natural light, the narrow bed and toilet hole in the corner before I was ushered out.
The guards organised a tour of the prison to pass the time until Pozhedayev was ready. They wanted to tell me that they were strict but humane. They welcomed the Interior Ministry's new battle against corruption.They complained that the state had not paid their wages for the past five months.
We tramped the corridors of the the fortress-like jail, which was built in 1830 and which remains standing only because of the huge iron girders which hold it up. My own ideas of Russian prisons come from Solzhenitsyn - icy cells, guard dogs, watch-towers. But Yelets Prison is unsettling in its attempts at cosiness.
The cells have black-and- white television sets and the prisoners are allowed posters on the walls. The library is perhaps a little overstocked with the works of Lenin, but soft pornography is also available. In the kitchen, young men peeled potatoes into bath tubs under the supervision of a motherly former factory-canteen manager, who said that meat was guaranteed daily. As is physical exercise.
The privileges of the ordinary prisoners are not for Pozhedayev. Thirty- one years old, he has been in and out of custody since he was 11. His father was also a convicted murderer. A local reporter had warned me that Pozhedayev had become like an animal. "He smelt me through the metal door of his cell. He said he recognised my aftershave. He will smell you too."
But in the interview Pozhedayev was all too human. He spoke softly, haltingly, obviously overwhelmed by the space of the conference room where he had been placed for our 10-minute talk. The time was short but he revealed something of his agony.
"I thought it would be quick but it has dragged on," he said. "Each time I hear a sound in the corridor, I think the moment has come. When you came, it was strange. I thought, 'maybe this is it'. My mother visits me once a month and every time we say goodbye."
Pozhedayev said he passed his time like a caged beast, "pacing to and fro". His cell light is always switched on but he has control over the radio switch and sometimes listens to pop music. He once gave up smoking for two weeks but then thought: "What's the point?"
Pozhedayev said he had heard that life sentences could soon be available in Russia. He would prefer life imprisonment to execution because while he has his life he has hope.
His other requests were modest. "Tell the civilised world I need medicines for my stomach ulcers," he said. "And say I want magazines - magazines with coloured pictures."
Outside the jail, I can't forget Pozhedayev. The thought strikes me that my writing about him may bring him to the attention of someone in Mr Yeltsin's office and his execution may be hastened.
But the chances are that nothing will be decided in the foreseeable future. The Kremlin leader is reviewing the use of the death penalty, weighing up the need to protect society from rising crime against the necessity of satisfying the Council of Europe on issues of human rights if Russia is to become a member of the European Union. However, with presidential elections due in June, the latter is not a priority.
Accurate statistics are hard to come by, but it seems that fewer executions are now being carried out in Russia. The head of the regional prison service, Colonel Vladimir Mitkeyev, thinks the number may have been about 20 for 1995.
How many prisoners still await execution is unknown.

Gulbarg society massacre case: Major relief to Narendra Modi Last Updated : 27 Nov 2012 05:32:46 PM IST File Photo
A local court in Ahmedabad on Tuesday disallowed Zakia Jafri to file protest petition against SIT report in the Gulbarg Society massacre case.
Court said that Zakia had been given ample of time to file protest petition.
"Zakia Jafri cannot file protest petition against SIT report due to lapse of time giving clean chit to CM Narendra Modi ," court said.
Earlier in April 2012, Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi was given a clean chit by the Supreme Court-appointed Special Investigation Team (SIT) in the Gulberg Society massacre case that took place during the 2002 post-Godhra riots in the state.
Slain former Congress MP Ehsaan Jafri's wife Zakia had accused Modi of not acting against the rioters when her husband was killed.
In its closure report, filed before the Metropolitan Magistrate, the SIT said it had not found any evidence against Modi and 57 others in the Gulberg Society killings.
Metropolitan Magistrate MS Bhatt, who had received the SIT's closure report in February, said on Tuesday, "According to the SIT, no offence has been established against any of the 58 persons listed in Zakia's complaint."
Modi's name was on the top of the list of persons named in Zakia's complaint. Her husband Ehsaan Jafri was among the 69 people burnt alive by a rioting mob on February 28, 2002 at the Gulberg Housing Society in Ahmedabad.

As a result, I could manage my usage a lot more efficiently. I've recommended it to lots of people who have also signed up. I've installed it in my rental properties too. As a landlord, it has cut down all my electricity admin costs - no more changing account holders, gathering deposits and better yet - no unforeseen costs!!

Please stop bringing your one night stands to Sunday brunch.
I just want a box on franzia all to myself. Just me, my wine, my tears, & my self loathing.

Sports tourists can show their Olympic mettle in Beijing
• Beijing Olympics Travel Guide photo gallery
BEIJING -- You've confirmed your flight to China, landed a hotel room, secured a visa, bought a Mandarin phrase book and even scored tickets to a few events at the Olympics. All the hard work is over. Now comes the fun.
The country has been working overtime to make the Games of the XXIX Olympiad a success, pouring money into security, infrastructure, transportation and entertainment. The Olympics will be a test of endurance and will, not just for the athletes but for visitors eager to experience the history, the culture, the sights, the food and the nightlife Beijing has to offer. Are you up for it?
Here are just a few highlights to get you started on your Olympic road trip.
The first (and easiest) stop for any visitor is Tiananmen Square (Tiananmen West or Tiananmen East stations on subway line 1). The massive public square is rich with history and the site of famous (or infamous, some would say) gatherings, including the student protests in 1989. Here, you can catch a clear view of Mao Zedong's portrait hung from The Gate of Heavenly Peace. Security is tight at the square; expect to have your bags searched upon entering.
While you're there, head south to the Chairman Mao Memorial Hall, where the body of the erstwhile supreme leader of China is entombed and on display. The mausoleum is open only from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., Tuesday through Sunday, during the summer, so be there early if you want to pay respects to the Great Helmsman.
From the square it's an easy jaunt to the Forbidden City (Tiananmen West or Tiananmen East stations on subway line 1), the former home of dynastic emperors, their wives and concubines, their servants and sycophants. Tourists from China and around the world flock to the compound that was once barred to outsiders. It's easy to spend the whole day exploring the resplendent buildings and trove of antiques. To escape the inevitable heat visit its Imperial Garden, where the emperor and his harem relaxed, to catch some shade and a cool drink from one of the snack shops.
If you only have half a day, check out Temple of Heaven Park (Tiantan Dongmen station on subway line 5). Heads of state, including former president Richard Nixon, have visited the site where emperors from the Ming and Qing dynasties prayed for abundant harvests. The buildings are impressive, but don't miss the amateur singers and choirs (singing Chinese opera ballads or revolutionary songs) using the park grounds as their own performance halls.
Even if your Olympic schedule already is packed, visiting and climbing the Great Wall is a must. Sure, you could go to Badaling, the section of the wall to which visitors flock; it's the easiest and closest section to access and your hotel concierge will be more than happy to sign you up on one of their tours. But you aren't traveling to China because you want things easy. To truly experience the Great Wall, carve out a full day and head to remote Simatai, about a 2½ hours drive northeast of the city center (take bus 980 from Dongzhimen long-distance bus station to Miyun, then transfer to a minibus; or just hook up with one of the tours from your hotel). You'll be rewarded with fewer tourists and hawkers, a strenuous hike and a majestic view.
After visiting these sights (and others that will beckon), no doubt you've worked up a mighty appetite and thirst.
You cannot leave Beijing without eating Peking Duck, the local delicacy known the world over. Even if you've had the dish elsewhere, it won't compare with the duck in Beijing. Although there are more crowded and more popular Peking Duck restaurants in the city, go to the highly-regarded Beijing DaDong Roast Duck Restaurant (two locations: No. 22 Dongsishitiao, Dongcheng District, local phone numbers are 5169-0328 and 5169-0239; and No. 3 Tuanjiehu Beikou, Chaoyang District, 6582-2892, 6582-4003 and 6582-4012). The skin is delightfully crispy and the meat moist; best of all, the duck is not dripping with grease.
Another must-try cuisine is hot pot, a boiling, spicy broth placed in the middle of the table. Dip and cook to preference an assortment of vegetables and meats at Dong Lai Shun (multiple locations, but try this one: Fifth floor, Xindong'an Plaza, Wangfujing Dajie, Dongcheng District, 6528-0932), a local chain that comes highly recommended by Beijing residents.
If you consider it a must, take in the bustling Donghuamen Night Market (on Dong'anmen Dajie, near the Sundongan Plaza, Dongcheng District), where you can order skewers of meat (and other unidentifiable edibles) from among the throng of food stalls. Locals, however, typically avoid the place, and one business owner, a lifelong Beijing resident, said it's because -- fair warning -- many consider the stalls unsanitary.
Craving a pizza or a plate of pasta? Find your way to the charming Vineyard Cafe (31 Wu Dao Ying Hutong, Dongcheng district, 6402-7961, Web site), which is nestled in a hutong, an old alleyway, across from the Lama Temple. Servers give a healthy pour of their house red or white wine (30 RMB, or renminbi, the currency of the People's Republic of China) and the restaurant has a nonsmoking room -- a rarity in China -- behind its courtyard.
And for all the delightful tackiness and unrefinement you can handle, Hooters (201 China View Building No. 1, Chaoyang district, 6585-8787, Web site) has set up shop across from the Workers' Stadium, one of the Olympic soccer venues. For a dash of decadence you can order a bottle of Dom Perignon with your plate of wings. And the servers are more than eager to sing a ditty at your table, just like at your neighborhood Hooters.
To get your drink -- and party -- on, venture to Houhai (pronounced ho-high) and Sanlitun (san-lee-tune), two sections of the city stocked with bars and clubs. Just mention either place, even if they are the only words you know in Chinese, to a taxi driver and he'll know right where to take you. If he drops you off a block or two away, don't worry; just follow the lights and reverberating bass.
You won't have trouble finding a bar in either area; many employ touts to persuade you to patronize their establishment. It can be quite the turnoff. Here are a few bars that don't pull that move.
Catch live music at the East Shore Live Jazz Cafe (Second floor, 2 Qianhai Nanyan Lu, Houhai, 8403-2131), a dark, moody, smoky joint with a second-floor view of the lake. Go early to snag a table, especially on Fridays and weekends. It's an especially good place for people-watching, and the tunes are a welcome change from the top-40 hits other bars are blasting onto the street.
On the other side of Houhai is Club Obiwan (4 Xihai Xiyan, 6617-3231, Web site), a two-story lounge and club named after a bar in "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom" and not the Jedi Knight. Enjoy a Tsing Tao beer on one of the red lounge chairs or grab a seat on the deck overlooking a quieter section of Houhai. On Sundays try the sampling of free salad and wings.
In Sanlitun, after you've stiff-armed more touts, reward yourself with a mug of Hoegaarden brew or two and a thin-crust pizza at The Tree (43 Bei Sanlitun Nan, 6415-1954, Web site), a secluded, rustic bar and restaurant that features a brick oven. Even though it's off the main street, the place can get crowded.
The Q Bar (Sixth floor, Eastern Hotel, 6595-9239, Web site) is in a quieter section of Sanlitun, but don't be fooled. The hip, trendy lounge on the sixth floor of a hotel packs in the beautiful people, not to mention expats, who chat away while drinking sour apple martinis and mojitos. It's the place to drink fancy cocktails -- and look good doing it -- even if the hotel it's in seems a little rundown.
I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the street Nanluogu Xiang (near the Drum Tower, Dongcheng district), a revitalized hutong now lined with funky boutique stores, coffee shops and bars. Spend a comfortable evening strolling and exploring the alleyway in a tout-free zone. Have dinner at Luogu Drum & Gong Fusion Restaurant (104 Nanluogu Xiang, Dongcheng district, 8402-4729) if you're up for some spicy, stir-fried bullfrog.
It will take one Herculean effort to experience all that Beijing has to offer, but no one said striking gold in this city was simple.

Kelly Tarlton's set for $5.5m upgrade
New exhibits, layout and interactive trailJESSICA TASMAN-JONES
Relevant offers
A $5.5 million upgrade of Auckland's iconic Kelly Tarlton's will make the venue more interactive and give marine lovers the chance to get up close and personal with it's star penguins.
The five month renovation, due to be completed in September, will also see the waterfront aquarium put more emphasis on marine life in New Zealand and Antarctic waters.
The move honours a commitment made by international entertainment group Merlin when they purchased the tourist hot spot last April.
The aquarium is now part of the world's largest aquarium group, Sea Life, and will be rebranded Kelly Tarlton's Sea Life.
Sea Life owns aquariums at a number of international locations including Sydney, Korea and Thailand.
Kelly Tarlton's general manager James Thomas says the upgrade will improve animal habitats and the visitor experience, including the penguin enclosure which is part of the Antarctic exhibit.
"Our penguins are one of the many reasons our guests visits us and are always amazed with our collection.
"Our new experience will ensure guests can spend as much time as they like with the penguins and get to know their individual personalities and traits."
There will be a new layout and exhibit structure and an interactive trail where junior explorers can recreate the life and work of Kelly Tarlton - the aquarium's founder.
Tarlton opened the aquarium in 1985 in disused sewage storage tanks on Tamaki Dr.
Following renovations the attraction will have 10 themed zones, more than 30 live animal displays and 80 different species and will produce four tonnes of snow daily.
Thomas says Sea Life is recognised for its work in breeding, conservation and campaigning.
Because Kelly Tarlton's was on sensitive land, the deal required Government approval from the Overseas Investment Office.
The acquisition of the aquarium was part of a wider A$116m (NZ$157.5m) deal to buy the Sydney aquarium, Sydney Wildlife World, the Sydney Tower Observatory and other attractions in Australia.
Merlin runs 70 attractions in 16 countries, including Legoland and waxworks museum Madame Tussauds.

This bizarre new video for MGMT's "Flash Delirium" from their upcoming album Congratulations is not easy to describe in words. Take an eclectic Royal Tenenbaums style family, add a Thrillesque dance sequence and a mad scientist-like experiment and you will be kind of close to recreating this video.

A new Hubble telescope image reveals a detailed view of a section of spiral galaxy NGC 4565.
It is an edge-on spiral galaxy, oriented perpendicularly to our line of sight.
NGC 4565 has been nicknamed the Needle Galaxy because when seen in full it appears as a very narrow streak of light on the sky.
The edgewise view into the Needle Galaxy appears similar to the view we have into the core of the Milky Way.
In both cases ribbons of dust block some of the light coming from the galactic disc.
Studying galaxies like NGC 4565 helps astronomers learn more about the Milky Way.
At a distance of only about 40 million light-years, NGC 4565 is relatively close by, and being seen edge-on makes it a particularly useful object for comparative study.
As spiral galaxies go, NGC 4565 is a whopper about a third larger than the Milky Way.
The image was taken with Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys and has a field of view of about 3.4 by 3.4 arcminutes.

MMO Blogging for the Experienced and Occasionally Wiser
As you probably noticed, earlier in the week I wrote a fairly tongue-in-cheek post about MMO payment models. It was largely inspired by Syl's post on the same subject.
In her post Syl linked the Cat Context episode from June, 2013 where she sat down with my and Ellyndrial to talk about payment models. At the time she and I had been having a bit of a blog battle over the whole thing, myself being passionately in favor of subscriptions and Syl defending F2P as not being inherently terrible. (I think that's a fair summary of our stances!)
When I read the most recent post I tried to stoke some of the old internal fire on this topic. I still don't trust F2P games, and I think embracing them (by developers and players) has made some areas of gaming pretty messed up. I think the psychology of preying on whales is the same as the psychology behind casino gambling, and that makes me feel squicky. As I said in my brief "last word" post I like subscriptions, and I don't play MMOs that don't have some kind of subscription option because that's just how I roll.
But when I sat down earlier this week to write yet another post on it all I realized… I just don't care that much about it anymore. Over time in the MMO blogging community you see the same evergreen discussions come up again and again: Payment models, casual vs. hardcore, WoW destroyed MMOs, and so on. And while I certainly encourage folks to continue writing posts on those subjects when they have something to say, after 6+ years I'm not sure I do.
Not only that, but time and the supposed wisdom that comes with it has made me a little more tractable. When I try to adopt a philosophy of "everyone should play what makes them happy", can I really get all raged up about payment model preferences? I dunno, man, if you're having fun then I guess it's all good.
Plus let's face it, us grumps have lost this battle. My feelings about MMOs changed dramatically after the rise and sudden fall of WildStar. Here was a game that espoused all of the things that we old school, Burning Crusade fans wanted! There was raiding and challenging leveling content and elaborate crafting and subscriptions. And it turned out when faced with this throwback game.. for the most part, and for whatever reason, we didn't actually want it. So much for pining for the old days. So much for bickering in support of the subscription model. I still feel a little lost about it, to be honest.
So this week instead of fighting the old battles and throwing down with other sites in rhetorical glee, I farmed up a hat for my chocobo.
… Ugh, casual bloggers are the worst.
I like subscriptions, but whatever.
In Defense of Massively's Existence
(Editor's Note: after publishing this post news broke that AoL officially laid off people from Joystiq, WoW Insider, and Massively. I'm sorry to see it wasn't just a rumor.)
I wasn't going to write anything about the potential shutdown of Massively (along with sister sites Joystiq and WoW Insider) because nothing has been officially announced and I try to resist writing about unconfirmed rumors. However, this morning I read the extremely grudge-wanky post I Hope Massively Shuts Down over at Keen and Graev and … it inspired me to write a response.
I'm not a big reader of Massively, although I do keep an eye on their Twitter and RSS feeds. I visit the site particularly when I want to get a feeling for how popular or how divisive a game change is. You can learn a lot about the MMO player community just by scanning to see which articles get the most comments.
And I sometimes have issues with Massively's articles. There have been times when I didn't think one was particularly well written, or I just felt it was a little too "press release-y". I have written the occasional post here in the past when I disagreed with an article or I didn't think the logic held up.
All of that aside, let's be perfectly clear here: The loss of Massively would be a huge loss for the MMO community.
Keen's mega-jerky post — because it was, let's be honest — argues that Massively is bad because it's "mass media". Which.. okay, it is. It's owned by AoL, it's very popular in the scheme of MMO sites, and it gets attention from publishers based on that. According to Keen, Massively's popularity turned "hundreds of thousands of people into sheeple". They write about things people want to read! Those bastards!
Except, the whole mass media pablum argument isn't the full story. You only had to read the comments on any article about gender equality in MMOs to see Editor-in-Chief Brianna Royce wade into the fray and share potentially unpopular decisions. Massively has also been a HUGE supporter of smaller, indie MMOs. They championed Glitch, a game near and dear to my heart. They've written articles about Age of Wushu and A Tale in the Desert and Wurm Online and a ton of other small games that many of us would possibly otherwise have missed completely. And straight up, they've linked this blog and Cat Context at least once each, and have a long history of linking other members of the MMO blogging community. Massively is GOOD for amateur blogs.
(Don't even get me started on Keen's accusations of fake game journalists. Like, seriously. He accuses them of not even playing MMOs! Are they just pretending to be MMO players because they like the attention?)
Yes, Massively is a business and has to meet certain metrics to be considered successful, including, I assume, page views. And yes, I'm sure at times they've written bland stories about hugely popular games almost entirely for the traffic, because that is what professional content sites do to stay alive. Perhaps I am biased as someone who has a job forming words (in marketing! evil marketing!) but I think it's pretty okay for someone to make a living from writing about games, and it's also pretty okay for a company to make money from distributing that writing.
All in all Keen's post reads like sour grapes to me. Perhaps he believes that the demise of Massively will somehow make his blog more precious and special, but the fact is it just reduces the legitimacy of our area of interest. I'm not a huge Massively fan, but it is a recognizable name that can get into E3 and other shows, highlight smaller games, and link back to the community.
MMO consumers are better off in an ecosystem where Massively exists, and to wave your hands and say that good people should lose their livelihood because Massively is (shock) a business that requires a appealing to a large audience to stay alive is short-sighted at best and downright mean at worst.
Introducing.. the TGEN Tribunal, Episode 1
Usually in this space you'd find the next episode of Cat Context, but there's something a little different this week!
Over the weekend members of The Gaming and Entertainment Network got together to hold our first Tribunal. It's a quarterly podcast where folks from your favorite shows talk about games, movies, pop culture, and more!
As the hosts of this particular Tribunal, I chaired the discussion and Cat Context is distributing it. The guests were Brax from Beyond Bossfights, Roger from Contains Moderate Peril, Syl from Battle Bards, Kodra from Aggrochat, and Joseph from Massive Failure and Roleplay Domain.
Our topic this time was… podcasting! We talk about how we got started, share the different levels of post- and pre-production that we all have, and give advice for future podcasters. Plus, Brax explains just what the heck he was thinking by creating a podcast network in the first place!
I hope you enjoy the first TGEN Tribunal, and do check out our other shows on the network.

Con Exhibitors, let's talk about lady-shirts
Convention season appears to be upon us! PAX South and MAGfest happened this past weekend, and my Twitter feed is full of talk about the upcoming Gen Con and PAX East.
One of the fun things for laypeople to do at conventions is collect a little swag, including the omnipresent t-shirt. It's popular with good reason — con-goers get a piece of clothing to show off, and the company in turn gets some good advertising. Wearing a nerd shirt is pretty much the unofficial dress code of any game convention I've experienced.
And often, I want to wear your shirts! If I liked your game, or I like your company, or it has a particularly sweet design, then I will happily wear your branding around and help support the cause. For the most part though while my dude friends leave PAX Prime with an extra stack of t-shirts in their suitcase, I might have one. If you don't have women's sizes then I'm pretty out of luck, and you've missed an advertising opportunity.
The next time you order shirts for your booth, please consider the following two points:
Don't print on American Apparel t-shirts
I'm going to assume that blank American Apparel t-shirts are cheap, because they seem to by far be the most used brand for promotional screen prints. And while there are certainly ethical reasons to reconsider your shirt supplier, let's focus on the practical here: they're small. AA shirts are sized tiny, and made from a terribly unforgiving weave. A booth that offers AA shirts in Small through 2XL is actually offering a range of "really wee through maybe-Large". I literally have a section in my clothing drawer dedicated to adorable shirts that I bought "in my size" at cons but ended up being in stupid tiny American Apparel sizes and thus can never be worn.
Have lady sizes
There's a reason why "women's cut" exists in shirts: women, particularly curvy ones, often just don't fit well in a men's cut shirt. They sit all wrong — the shoulders are baggy, the collar goes up weirdly high, the chest is too tight and then it's all extra bunching cloth at the waist and hips. I've tried, oh, how I've tried, to just ignore it and wear a lovely shirt anyway but I can't escape the feeling that it looks all wrong and then suddenly your game is being "advertised" by a disgruntled lady wearing an ill-fitting sack.
Anyone who has been to a PAX event lately knows that the crowd is roughly 50% women. If I do a demo of your game or meet some other requirement for a shirt and you tell me you only have men's sizes, you know what I'll do? I'll take your shirt, I'll try it on later, I'll make a sad face, and then it goes into the sad face drawer where it will never be seen by another human being again. Don't let your promo dollars end up in the sad face drawer, people.
(Amusingly enough the only promotional t-shirt I have obtained in five years of PAX Prime that came in a non-AA women's cut was for.. Dungeons & Dragons. And I still wear that sucker today!)
I know, or at least suspect, that printing two different cuts of t-shirts will increase your overhead costs, but men's shirts are not the "standard" or "one shape fits all". They're shirts that were cut for dudes. And that's cool, but if you have ladies at your con and you'd like them to wear your shirts too, then please consider bringing some non-AA women's sizes to your booth this year.

Chuck white this summer, don coloured accessories
Aastha Khurana
[ Thu, May 3, 2012 ]
New Delhi, May 3 (IANS) Summer means dressing up in white or beige cotton clothes with minimal accessories. But fashion experts say it creates a boring look and suggest shoes, bags and jewellery in orange, fluorescent green, red and other vibrant colours to enhance the style quotient this season. Fashion-conscious guys and girls can even step out in a pair of colourful sunglasses, says Eina Ahluwalia, conceptual jewellery artist, adding it helps in tackling the heat best and looking good too. "The most popular and most useful accessory this season for boys and girls is a pair of sunglasses with an umbrella and a fun piece of jewellery to liven up the hot and humid days," she told IANS. Sunglasses, both a necessity and a style statement, in different colours, shapes and sizes, have hit the stores. "We have been seeing a resurgence of 1970s shapes with a modern twist. Classic shapes like wayfarers and aviators are making a huge comeback. The modern twists in their design can be in terms of colour and materials used," Dhruv Gupta, CEO of online eyewear store gkboptical.com, told IANS. "New colours, pink and blue, are in major demand. Even white, red, yellow and candy colours are popular. Patterns in sunglasses are gaining international traction but are yet to catch on to the mainstream trend in India," he said. Usually white or light pastel colours are considered apt and cool in the heat, but shoe designer Swati Mehrotra begs to differ. She says reds, oranges and other "cute colours" in footwear, bags and accessories are the in thing nowadays. Pointing out the most favourite shoe colour, she told IANS: "The colour of the season is orange. You should have a tangerine in your wardrobe and match unconventional clothes and accessories together." Since the season is about being carefree and comfortable, flip flops in all kinds of vibrant shades and wedges are dominating the market and are worth spending money on. "Flip flops and wedges are back this season. The broader the strap the better it is. Teaming wedges with capris is the fun look. Pointed toes are back too. A pair of formal pointed toes with a delicate attire would also be a nice change," said Mehrotra, adding now it comes with heels too. Designer Rocky S recommends neon hues. From clothing to footwear - everything is available in electric blue, orange, pink and more. "From clothing to footwear, handbags and even jewellery, neon hues are one hot trend. Dangling pieces of feathers leave a playful impression. Fringes, collar neckpieces, chain neckpieces, staked coloured bangles, wooden art bracelets and geo neck pieces are working wonders this season," he said. However, Ahluwalia says artificial and costume jewellery should be avoided. "Precious metals like silver and gold, natural semi-precious stones, wood and plastic jewellery get a thumbs-up, but it is better to avoid artificial metals and costume jewellery. It will become dull and not wearable because of the humidity," she said. One does not necessarily need to spend big bucks on accessories. What is more important is mixing and matching them in the smartest way to get that perfect look. "Neon tube belts work best on a white fitted dress. One can have artful layering of chunky neckpieces with a simple basic plain-coloured top or tee. A white hot bag or clutch is a must have to match with any outfit," Rocky said. "Summer 2012 bags are elaborate and unusual. They come knitted, printed, with rivets and chain handles and wrist straps. But the biggest hit of the season is a tiny bag that is so small it can hold only keys and lipstick," said Rocky. Ahluwalia cautions against overdoing it. "Keep things simple, and the look clean. Comfort should come first and one should focus on quality over quantity. Wear that one piece that makes you feel special. Don't overdo it," she said A delicate bracelet, luxurious necklace, exquisite earrings or even an unusual hairpin can help you grab those eyeballs.

Tastes ok but terrible consistency . . all loose - not bound together properly, needs more flour, eggs and fruit to make it into a half decent Christmas pud. I think Aunty Caroline wants to keep it a secret and gave you the wrong recipe.
I lost the timing for this Christmas, but this recipe sure looks like the real thing I knew in Britain.

Rosberg pleased with win after managing problems
Jun 22, 2014, 10:12 AM EDT
Nico Rosberg made no secret of his relief and delight after dealing with minor problems on his W05 Hybrid car to win today's Austrian Grand Prix.
The German driver crossed the line less than one second ahead of Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton, and was forced to fight for the win by the Briton, and also by the Williams duo of Felipe Massa and Valtteri Bottas.
Just as they did in Canada, both cars had a minor problem with their brakes, which the drivers had to manage. For Rosberg, the result was a relief.
"Yeah it wasn't the easiest of races, trying to manage certain things which were a bit on the limit on the car," he explained on the podium after the race. "But in the end, yeah, I had a very very fast car again, so it was fantastic to win today.
"It's great also to get a one-two here in Austria, and it's been great to come back here to Austria, for sure it deserves a race, and the fans have been amazing, the atmosphere has been spectacular this weekend, so thank you very much for that, and it's been awesome."
Rosberg is now looking forward to the British Grand Prix at Silverstone, which is just a few miles from Mercedes' F1 factory in Brackley, and he is hoping for a repeat result in two weeks' time.
"For sure, looking forwards to the net one, home race so will be awesome to do another one-two there, that would be great to give something back to all of our colleagues back in the factory, and I'm looking forward to that."
With this win, Rosberg has extended his lead in the drivers' championship to 29 points, and will be doing everything in his power to win the British Grand Prix for the second year in a row. However, with Hamilton enjoying a partisan crowd, he too will be pushing to claim his second win at Silverstone and reduce the gap at the top of the standings.

National Basketball League of Canada representatives came to Kitchener on Monday to discuss the possibility of bringing a team to the city.
Mayor Carl Zehr met with NBL president and chief executive officer Andre Levingston to hear his proposal as to why Kitchener should be the next city to join the league.
"We just wanted to see if the mayor would embrace the opportunity of professional basketball being played in Kitchener, and he seemed pretty enthusiastic about it," Levingston said. "Naturally there is a lot of due diligence to be done on everyone's side, but we had a good initial meeting."
The seven-team professional men's basketball league tipped off its inaugural season in late 2011. In March, the London Lightning defeated the Halifax Rainmen in the finals to become the league's first champions.
Levingston said he feels the success seen recently in the London market, both on the court and in the office, can be replicated in Kitchener.
"There is definitely a passion for basketball in the city. They have a beautiful venue," Levingston said, referring to the Aud. "We think it would be a natural rivalry for the city of London."
While Zehr said he will certainly look into the possibility, he feels that starting up a team in Kitchener by the start of next season is very short notice.
"It's an intriguing possibility and we always like to be open to new opportunities in this community," Zehr said. "But there is absolutely, at this point in time, no definitive answer that was given to them, nor would I be in the position to do so because I don't know all of the details at this time, nor what the requirements are."
The NBL features elite basketball talent from across North America, highlighted by several players who have spent time in the NBA, Levingston said.
"It's a high level of basketball and great entertainment," he said. "It is family affordable too . . . we like for a family of four to be able to go to a game cheaper than you can go to a movie. It's a great family night out."
The NBL is also currently working towards bringing teams to the cities of Kingston and Windsor.

Richard J. Leskosky: The movie that made Hayworth a big star
Sometimes a single role comes to epitomize an actor's screen persona, even when that actor has a fairly lengthy, successful career apart from that role.
You can see probably Hollywood's best example of that when The News-Gazette Film Series screens the 1946 classic "Gilda" at 1 and 7 p.m. Saturday at the Virginia Theatre in downtown Champaign.

Hi: 4° Lo:-1°
By Ian Hughes Wednesday 17 October 2012 Updated: 19/10 13:33
HORSE drawn vehicles to humble spades went under the hammer in Stratford.
An auction of hundreds of nineteenth and twentieth century farming tools was held by Shakespeare Birthplace Trust (SBT) to sell off items not needed for its museum collection.
The sale, at The Hill in Warwick Road last week, attracted collectors of agricultural and horticultural equipment. In total more than 600 items associated with farming, gardening, and domestic life were sold.
Most of the artefacts were acquired by the SBT during the 1970s and 80s when it was planned to develop Mary Arden's Farm as a museum of rural life.
But the working Tudor farm at Wilmcote is now presented much as it would have been when Shakespeare was a boy visiting his mother's childhood home in the 1570s, so the tools from later centuries are surplus to requirement.
All proceeds from the sale - the exact total has not yet been finalised - will be used to fund the conservation and development SBT's museum collection.
Delia Garratt, head of collections and interpretation at the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, said: "We hold the world's largest collection of artefacts related to Shakespeare's works, life and times.
"Like many museums we do not have as much space as we would like to display or store artefacts in suitable conditions.
"Dispersing items which are not core to the purpose of the trust will allow us to focus resources on items more closely associated with Shakespeare and his local and global legacy."
