The BEST TRIP !!
LOVE LAKE COMO and UP TO BELLAGIO!! WE got lost for 5 min. (in Como) to find our tour director, after stopping to have a glass of wine! @ a cafe!! But, all turned out well...great boat ride and return, had some small TAPAS and WINE @ A SMALL CAFE ON THE SIDE OF THE LAKE!! HOW GREAT IS THAT!!??

We had a wonderful day with and absolutely delightful guide and great driver. The weather was perfect and the guided information was great. The city of Como was enchanting and the ferry ride to Bellagio was relaxing with the most beautiful views of Villas, water and landscapes. Bellagio, well what can you say about Bellagio, GORGEOUS! Highly recommended if you have the opportunity.
lovely tour, well arranged, good guide.
This tour was amazing!
The tour was great! Concise with our guide who was well versed on what we were seeing. Timing was perfect with adequate "free time" to explore the region on our own. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone with limited time to devote to the Como region.
Tour guide very knowledgeable. Trip well organized. Great choice!
This tour was amazing!

I had a fun time on this tour. Morena was terrific, and very personable. She spoke excellent English, and we all wore headphones to hear her on the boat, and on the port of Bellagio where we were on our own for a couple of hours. My new friend and I took in the sight of the lovely gardens on Bellagio, where you pay 6 euros or so. We had great sunshine on the first leg of the trip, but even though it disappeared later we still had good weather. We saw George Clooney's home, and the house where they filmed Attack of the Clones and Casino Royale, so it was worth it for film buffs. Definitely a great time!
Wife and I took this tour on 8/11/14 and Alesandro was our guide. He was full of information traveling to Como and while we toured the town. He kept a good pace and was very friendly. Not many stores were open due to the country holiday week but the town was very pleasant. The real jewel of this tour had to be the lake cruise. The cruise wasnt a 20min ride down the bank, it was possible an hour. We enjoyed this a lot the towns on the side of the lake were just as beautiful as the mountainside. The fog in the air made it seem magical in a way, you can take some pretty good pictures along the way. Find a good seat and take it all in, there was a good breeze in the open roof section and it got cold. The cruise ended in Bellagio, which also was very cute. A lot of stores throughout the town selling mostly silk scarves since that's what the area is known for. The town itself isnt that big and the 1.5hr we had to wander around was enough time to get a good feel of the town. We spent our time shopping and got a slice of pizza and wine at the top of the hill takeout shop. Not much to say about the ride back besides the driver of the bus maneuvering it like a boss though the narrow streets.
This was well and truly worth doing...good value for money, guide very thorough ...plenty of free time to enjoy a lunch and some shopping...would do it again in a heart beat
nice and pleasant
This tour was amazing!
Loved the whole tour, had a great tour guide, very hot day excellent time.
A great trip to a most beautiful part of the world. Good clear information imparted by our friendly and well-informed tour guide. Highly recommended

We were only there for one night to see Blue Man Group. We were three adults and two children and reservied a mini suite. The room was comfortable, the kids had a confy fold out couch. The staff was very accomodating, found us a great italian restaurant nearby that would also be appropriate for the kids. All and all very happy with this hotel. Will definitely stay there again.

Small but nicePosted Feb 22, 2015
This was a very nice hotel with a very nice staff. The doorman was very inattentive however. The main issue, and honestly as some one who is used to living in a cramped city and is impressed by any luxury, it wasn't a big deal, but everything was very small. The lobby, the bar, the elevator, and especially the bathroom. When I opened the door to the bathroom it's blocked off the entire toilet area. I had to walk in all the way to the shower and then close the door they also had a magnifying mirror you would have to sit on the counter too use it didn't turn around. The bed was clean and comfy and honestly it was all very pretty but just tighter than I would expect for the price.

Loved it!Posted Feb 17, 2015
I've stayed a several other hotels in the general Copley Square area and have enjoyed them all. This time I chose The Lenox. I loved it! Small, intimate hotel. Very Nice, comfortable! All the staff members we encountered were super polite, helpful, accommodating, courteous! I will definitely stay at The Lenox again. I get to Boston fairly frequently as our daughter is in college there. We like to stay in the Copley Sq. area because it's so close to the green line T and Boylston/Newbury Sts... The Lenox fits in perfectly.

Day 5: our last day in Boston and we set out to explore South St Seaport. The first stop was the Boston Tea Party museum…. it looked kinda boring so we just did the walk around the harbour. It was a beautiful day and it was nice to be near the water. We get to the aquarium and Hinesh inquires about going on the hump back whale cruise. Unfortunately the next boat leaves the next day so we had to go without.

Tuesday is is allocated to seeing Boston with a city tour, some free time to wander around the sights and then a harbour cruise with lobster (or chicken) dinner. We should have some more interesting tales to tell after that lot.

The Very End of Innocents Once a long time ago, there was a little girlThe Very End of Innocents2 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
Who dreamed that she could be anything she wanted to be
Happiness filled her heart and smiles were always on her face
Not once has she even thought about negative thing
Only imagination filled her mind
Everyone loved her
Her parents, to the teachers at school, to the other kids at school
Even the meanest and grumpiest of people loved her
Exciting to be around and very smart indeed
Sometimes a little hyper at times and maybe even clumsy
A beautiful little girl
An outstanding one
Friendly and caring
She never lost hope in things
She grew up.

Chihiro Fujisaki let out an agitated sigh. Despair had always been there for him. When the kids at school made fun of him for being the smallest and quietest, despair was his only friend. All he wants is for these other students of Hope's Peak Academy to learn to love despair, and they want to escape it? How annoying.
He sat at his computer, which he had finished designing a portable remote control for Monobear on, so he wouldn't have to go hours and hours without an alibi during the day, hiding out in some dusty control room. "Which one will snap first?" he asked to no one in particular. Perhaps it will be the big, strong girl, Oogami-san. Or maybe it will be Togami-san, he must be desperate to get back to controlling the world that doesn't exist anymore. Or maybe it will be Maizono-san, the cutesy girl that no one would ever suspect. Either way, it really didn't matter. He didn't care, as long as it was someone with the guts to commit a murder. It was a couple more minutes until Nigh

"This Twilight Sparkle"
Poem by Picardy Third
Alone, outcast
I find a familiar tune
A repeated fate plays again
As I walk under cover of the moon
To hear them laugh
To hear them jeer
Like the cries of demons
Painfully reminding me what I fear
I am the Great and Powerful
Oh, what point remains?
I have lost all that I own
Do I even hold true my name?
I turn my head and glance
The horizon dark, shadows high
Barely in sight, a village stands
Under Luna's gem of the sky
By folly act of children
Disaster struck, peril ensued
And from Everfree's forbidden depths emerged
A great beast of midnight blue
My efforts, though valiant
Were but foal's play
Defeated and upstaged by one
Magic powerful and bright as day
This unicorn, this hero
This ray of hope, this Twilight
Left me homeless, left me broken
Running scared into the night
But as my hooves tire
As my body aches
I know I cannot run any longer
I must do what it takes
Courage in tow
A hastened, furious pace
With fervor I return

Applejack glanced at the sky, pausing her applebucking as she noticed a gray coated mare with a blond mane glide down from the sky. Even if she hadn't recognized the pony herself, the mailbag slung around Derpy's shoulder would have tipped her off. Noting the lack of any other Apple family pony present on the farm, Applejack trotted up to the mailmare. "Whatcha got for me, Derpy?"
The gray pegasus just smiled, pulling a letter out of her bag for Applejack to see. The farm pony's eyebrows lifted as she read the address, her surprise growing as she opened the letter and read its contents. "Well, ah'll be..."
Focused as she was on the letter, she did not notice Derpy take off, heading towards Sugarcube Corner. The mailmare had plans, and many muffins had to be ordered...

The loud, mocking laughter echoed throughout the Netherworld valleys as Overlord Laharl's sword split yet another zombie's skull down the middle. He planted his boot on the undead creature's chest and yanked his blade free with a sickening squelch. A light clapping sound drew his attention, and he turned around to find his "servants," the self-proclaimed Beauty Queen Etna and Angel Trainee Flonne approaching him.
"Great job, Laharl!" Flonne applauded with a sweet smile, holding her staff under her arms as she flapped her tiny white wings.
Etna meanwhile, chuckled as she rested her spear on her shoulder. "I think that was the last one. And, unless I'm mistaken, you gained another level Prince!"
"Ha ha!" the blue haired overlord laughed haughtily. "At long last! Lvl 9999! Now no one in the Netherworld can stop me!"
The two girl tipped their heads to the side upon hearing that, Etna raising an eyebrow. "Uh... Prince? What do you mean by that?"

Samus' eyes opened slowly as she awoke from her slumber. Her head throbbed as a fog began to lift in her mind. As she began to become aware of her surroundings, she realised that she was strapped into a chair in her zero suit. She also took in where she actually was: she was in a poorly lit room that was either in a facility or aboard a ship. She had to squint her eyes because, although the room was poorly lit, what little light there was made Samus' head feel like it was about split open. Her hangover level headache was made all the worse by the heavily synthesized voice that began to boom in the room.
"It's about time you woke up." Samus would have clutched her aching head had her arms not been restrained.
"W-where am I?" she asked quietly so as not to made her headache worse, hoping that whoever had abducted her would hear her question so she wouldn't need to raise her voice any further.

Sonic groaned as he sat up on the couch, the loud ringing of his telephone waking him from his afternoon nap. Didn't people realise that saving the world was hard work? He thought he deserved a little relaxation after all these years!
Sighing, the Blue Blur leaned over and picked up the receiver, holding it to his ear. "Hello?" he asked irritably, rubbing at his eyes.
"Hello there, blue boy."
Sonic nearly dropped the phone, snapped out of his grogginess by Rouge's voice. It had been two months since the little "incident" at Rouge's home, and it didn't seem like Rouge had spoken about it... but at every opportunity she made a small, seemingly-innocent comment that let Sonic know she remembered it. Such as offering to take him lingerie shopping with her and Amy, or asking if he wanted to try on her new high heels.
"What do you want, Rouge?" Sonic asked coldly, electing a giggle from the treasure huntress.

Megaman stepped up to the door of the robot factory and peered inside. The coast was clear, so he slipped in. "I'm in Doctor Light." He contacted over his radio. "We're sure this is where Wily is hiding?"
"We're sure, Rock." The doctor answered. "Be careful. Who knows what kind of traps lie in wait."
"Don't worry, the upgrade you gave me is functioning perfectly." Megaman looked down at himself. Doctor Light had finally upgraded him from a child's body to a full grown adult. He really was a Mega MAN now!
Mega looked around the dark interior. There were several robot construction pods, but he didn't recognize their model. "Doctor, what is this place?" He peeked inside a pod. There were functioning repair and adjustment tools inside.

Twilight smiled, leaning towards the window of the library in an attempt to fight off the chill of her current project. She glanced back to the bubbling cauldron, frowning at the frosty fog roiling over the sides. This just isn't working how I want it to! She sighed heavily and moved closer.

She opened her eyes and looked at the gray, cold ceiling. The room was almost bare; a cabin in one of the corners, a desk where books and parchment was laying all over, and a bed were the only things in Lily Feather's room; not that she couldn't put stuff in it, she just didn't feel like it. The only thing on her wall was a Wonderbolts poster of Spitfire.
She'd been a Wonderbolts fan ever since the orphanage went on a trip to Canterlot to see the display. She didn't really feel like going. When they all were there to see it, she snuck away and began looking at the surroundings. Suddenly, she heard a voice behind her say, "Hey, you're not allowed to be here!" Lilly turned around and saw a yellow pony with orange hair. "I'm...."
"It's OK sweety," the yellow pony grinned. "Are you lost?" "No, I just didn't want too look at that boring race," she said. The yellow pony looked at Lily. "So you don't want to look at my friends race? You do know, I'm going to race in this,

Metroid: HoU: The Witch upgrade"The Witch upgrade." Samus said, selecting the upgrade from the list. This was another one that had piqued her interest thanks to the name. Witch? As in magic-casting Witch? Samus was interested since, well, there was no such thing as magic. Sure, there was the whole Chozo spiritualism thing that blurred the lines a bit, but no Witch kind magic. Either way, she decided to find out, and hey, if the thing worked as advertised, magic. She inserted the upgrade into her zero suit, and waited for the changes to begin.Metroid: HoU: The Witch upgrade3 years ago in Introductions & Chapters More Like This
After a few seconds, Samus didn't feel any changes. No clothing changes, nothing. She did, however, start to feel very unpleasant, like she was sick, but somehow not quite to the level of feeling nauseated or that any part of her body wasn't working properly. Her skin was also starting to feel strange, and she quickly walked over to the mirror to take a look at herself
At the mirror, Samus initially didn't notice anything different about herself. But she had looked at her body

"SWEET SONG!," Lyra called up the stairs, "IT'S TIME TO GO TO SCHOOL! YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS YOUR FIRST DAY!"
Sweet Song was in her bed and sat up slowly, rubbing her eyes with her hooves
"I'M COMING, MOM!" she yelled back while slowly getting out of her bed.
She went to the bathroom, washed her face, and went down to find the biggest breakfast she had ever seen her mother make.
"Wah...?" was the only thing she could say.
"It's all for you and for your big day at school!" Bonbon said and went over to her daughter and hugged her and gave her a little kiss on the forehead
"MOOOOOTHER! I'm not a baby anymore," she tried breaking loose, only to find yet another one of her mother's hugging her and kissing her.
"Not you too," Sweet Song said while trying to avoid the incoming hug and kisses, but failed to avoid it.
Lyra pushed Sweet Song over to the dinner table, where all three of them began eating and Lyra, as she always did to lighten up the mood, told stories of humans and how

Last week I had a realization. As hard as it is to say, I feel like I've always been 100% honest with all of you, and it's time to come clean: design is no longer my true passion. Sure, it's been fun talking about beautiful homes and products for the past nine years, but something has been missing. And while I was reading the comments under the March Instagram Pet Challenge, I realized I needed to stay true to my heart. So many of you left comments that suggested I was unfairly favoring small dogs. And you were right. I've been working so hard to suppress my love for a different animal (in an attempt to keep things fair) that I swung too far in the other direction and forgot the animal with which my allegiance truly lies: cats.
Starting today, there are going to be some changes around here. Amy, Max and I had a long and serious talk, and we all agreed: it's time to change Design*Sponge. So today you're going to see some major changes taking place. We'll continue to post homes, products and projects, but from the only perspective that truly matters: a cat's.
Over the next month we'll be making the transition from a full-time design site to a full-time cat site. We'll be slowly phasing out design content over the next 30 days (so you'll still see some non-cat posts for the next few weeks) and will happily be accepting any and all cat-related submissions. We will, however, no longer be accepting design-related submissions. I hope you all understand our need to stay true to ourselves and what really means the most to us as a team. From our cats to yours, Grace
This has been a long time coming. Honestly, I was just waiting for the announcement. If I had to wait much longer I might have just stopped reading and gone back to Cheezburger. I can't wait to see the new changes. Forget design, moar cats!
I think I speak for many of the readers when I say this change is both expected and welcome. Personally, I am really looking forward to the Biz Cats series. I've always known my cat had entrepreneurial skills and I think now is the time for him to harness them.
is this an april's fools joke??:)
Thank You !
OMG, I love cats soooo much, I totally approve for this change. We always can see in the pictures from the sneak peeks that what makes a home really a home is the kitten in it !
It is important to stay true to yourselves also.
Cats are sooo wonderfull, I wish I could hug them all. I wish I could hug every cat !
HA! Love it!
Exactly Ozana!
It took me a minute. Haha
April 1st is the purrrfect day for it!
Thank you! Finally someone puts more lights on cats!
This seems like an April Fool's joke…..??!!
Oh yeah, Biz Cats!! We need more Cats in the Whitehouse too. Are you going to rename the blog? Design*Cat? Cat*Sponge? I'm hoping you'll work on that.
Check out the new logo above ;)
hahaha! I was falling for it until I remembered today's date! Good April's fools, I would of agreed wholeheartedly if the subject matter were of the canine variety ;P
Happy April Fools :-)
About time! Much needed and welcome change.
If there is one thing that the internet needs is more cat photos…
I love this bold new direction. Looking forward to posts about chevron printed kitty litter boxes and African art for the eclectic cat pad. Meowwww!
Bahaha…you are so funny.
You should partner up with Design Milk to keep the cats happy.
oh! and the Before & After? Adding in Cats puts a whole new spin on it.
I think this is an important issue that is little covered by reputable sources online. I hope to see your staff providing extensive coverage to events such as this: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-21993134 in the near future.
Happy Aprils Fools!
(thanks for this huge burst of laughter)

Biz Cats! Happy April!
I wish this was true, but I know it's April Fool's Day! Such a fun (cruel haha) way to joke! :)
cat sponge :DDD
Thank God it's April, the 1st:)
i had already jumped ship from the lack of catastrophe
and resorted to:
zac efron and cats. could it get any better?
The best April Fool's are the closest to actual reality and reading your letter, I could believe it all! Especially the new logo, which is the best part. Cat*Sponge!
Oh god, I nearly cried at the thought of no Sneak Peeks (they get me through every Monday!) before realising what day it was.
Not only do I love cats and design, but I love your sense of humor! Happy April DS!
Ummm that is very good news, since Margarita, my house mate and slave is always talking and living for design, you see that is what she does and love, to the contrary I would love to see more well designed and interesting cat sites. So I approve of the change, I will be sending some images of myself playing in the garden, sitting on top of her favorite cushions, and sleeping on her bed, looking forward the new content, I will pass the word to all my feline friends.
My cat Pauline wants to know if she can contribute to the Biz Cat's section. She considers herself an industry expert.
Sneak peeks shot from 12-inches-looking-up are going to be SO, SO interesting and subversive. A real design game-changer! I'm incredibly excited about this new direction.
Hmmm. I find this a bit disturbing. I mean I have had 4 cats at once but also coexisting with 2 dogs. I love me some feline friends but lest we forget that dogs are also "man's best friend"?!
I will continue to support DS in this catastic adventure but I do have 2 little Bostons that would love an opportunity to guest post if the need arises. They are particularly fond of outdoor design and also shoes.
Just a thought. Oh, and what about the goldfish?
Wait until you see the behind the scenes home videos shot from cat collar cameras ;)
Sounds like an awesome idea! I have 3 kitties that would love to contribute! ;)
Oh no, what is this cat invasion over the internet? What about us dog people??! Who will start a Dog*Sponge blog for us? My pups would happily pose for the header :D
The header! Hilarious!! Sending some cat lady love ;)
I wish!! :D Cat Sponge would be a great name too. Cats simply absorb everything especially my time and productivity [OK there never was productivity].
I know this is a joke…but I would totally read Cat Sponge ;)
Cat Sponge- ha ha!
I cannot wait to see What's In Your Toolbox, DIY tutorials and Before|Afters from our fellow felines.
Absolutely purrfect post!
I am totally on board…I have thousands of pics of all of the cats we've rescued and an absolutely endless supply of adorable photos of my current collection of felines. I will start posting images to DS on an hourly basis…I can also provide images of my neighbourhood cats if you would like to 'categorize'.
I'm so disappointed that this is an April Fools prank on us. I would read Cat*Sponge every day! Meow.
I almost fell off my stool before I realized what day it was… Phew!
I think my heart stopped, Grace! Praise the Lord that it's April 1. I don't want to have to find another website to pour over during my lunch breaks!
Are you Joking?
Are you changing the direction of your radio show as well? After the Pounce?
Lol- Clay you always have the best name ideas. ;)
I really approve of this change. I've never been a cat person myself, but I'm excited and ready for Cat*Sponge to open my mind to new directions in cat-based design and products. I may even have to consider getting a cat so I can take better advantage of all your posts and suggestions!
I am confused and upset about the comments making this sound like an April's Fool joke. It is obvious that you are serious about this new blog direction, and I for one could not approve of it more. Did you know during the latest economic downturn, only pet related businesses and telecommunications showed growth? What, do you all want her to blog about cell phones?? NAY, I say.
Are we, Grace's devoted readers, going to deny her the opportunity to lead the way into a new, more cat-centric economy? I am with you, Grace, even if there are others who do not grasp the vision.
This is hilarious/awesome! :) Love the sense of humor and "all-in" attitude: from the left-hand side bar, to the top banner and multiple cat posts! AmAzing.
thanks tammy.
check out the top right "i want to" list ;)
You have just solidified your spot as my favorite site on the internet.
The impending problem that you may or may not have anticipated is that I'm starting to prefer Cat*Sponge to Design*Sponge.
My dog was p*ssed..but then I told him it was the 1st
Anyone who follows your Instagram feed had to know this day was coming! I wonder what the Friday recipes will bring ;)
It took me much longer than it should have to figure this one out! High fives and three cheers from me, and my cats: Omaha, Sweet Lil, and Odds.
Such good cat names, well done ;)
Ha ha! Love cats!! I'm a fan.
I look forward to Sarah's new floral column on which non toxic flowers & foliage are best for cat snacking each season and which vases tip over most easily to allow for maximum cat enjoyment!
YES! This is a dream come true!
Awesome. My new favourite website!
Yaay! Love the creative thinking that led you to this decision – a site/blog after my own cat-like heart.
I am very gullible so if it's true, I am sad…sad…sad….as I am not a cat person
I am so glad I came across this blog, why is it so hard to find everything you are looking for in one spot, I love cats and I'm currently redecorating my house and you have given me so many great ideas. Thank you so much
Great news, Anouk is already happy while she sleeps on her Ikea PS Chair… (Cats love design! )
I can't believe it, I've trusted your decor advice for years… what kind of cat advice could compare? Oh well, no sense crying over spilt milk!
Do you really need to keep sponge in the title? The word "cat" is so fabulous in and of itself that nothing further is needed …
not going to lie… I really would love to see a post about chevron printed kitty litter boxes!
also VERY happy about the change!
As a design addict and pet industry professional. I. Love. It! There's lots more cats on the @SwheatScoop social media pages for a month long eco- challenge. Gracey, you should volunteer as a guest contributor for their campaign and infuse your cat inspired design knowledge!
I'd love to have my cats guest-post some week. They've been working on an amazing diy tutorial on shredding upholstery. If that's not up your "alley", maybe a photo essay on covering every surface in fur will do the trick?
So hilarious, I love it!!! Happy April Fools Day!
cat sponge! that's the best april fool's ever!
Good one Grace! haha (Hey, but I think a sister-site may be in order!)
My cats Mao and Coco highly approve of this switch since they feel that my recent home decorating projects have not taken their needs enough into account.
Not going to lie, didn't exactly know what was happening there for a moment and I don't really subscribe to April Fools so I panicked a bit there. I can't stand cats so I'll be glad when this joke is over :) Cat Sponge does have a nice ring to it though…
Dear Catitor Bonney, It is with great pleasure I read of your timely decision. I do hope you will take into consideration that a cat's reading/scrolling time is very short during busy days full of pressing obligations involving sleep. For future planning, as I am sure you will want to include my kind of cat in your Style Icon feature, it would be a black and white post. Purrs, Frances
Yay Cat-Sponge! Will you be conducting Cat-Interviews? Will After the Jump now be After the Pounce? Can you please feature how to entertain and have cat house parties?? I never know what to serve besides tuna and milk!
This actually made me cry. Brilliant. Thank you for the much needed laugh. My cat, Mr. Roly-Poly sends his regards.
LOL!!! Cat*Sponge!!! Brilliant!!! My Sewing Assistant heartily approves. When he is not napping on my sewing/design materials, that is. :)
LOL!!!! Cat*Sponge! If it didn't smack of doing work around the place, I'm sure my Sewing Assistant would heartily approve…when he is not napping on top of my design/sewing materials, that is. :) Brilliant!
Wow. You had me scared for a minute! (Though I do love cats.) Well done!
i wish there were cat paws playing with the ribbons on the website! <3 cats!
ah! i wish i'd thought of that ;)
Oh my goodness. The comments are almost as good as the whole thought of D*S becoming C*S. PRICELESS.
It's actually April 2nd here in Australia… I got a bit upset over my coffee, even started thinking of a Pinterest board I could dedicate to D*S. Well played guys, well played
Sorry about the double post – I blame whichever cat was working on the server at the time. Your "I want to" list is hysterical!
Purrrrfect. You will, of course be investing in those collar cam things so we get a true vision from those kitties…
This was well-written enough that I thought it was real for a quick second!
Honestly, I wouldn't say no to an occasional cat meme post.
I can see the new columns now! "In the litterbox with," "Small Meowsures," "Human/House/Hairball"…. now that's content I can sink my claws into!
My Cat is king of the before and afters, some examples:
Before- Rug flat in middle of living room
After- Rug Crumpled in corner
Before-Glass of water on counter
After-Broken glass in puddle on kitchen floor
Seriously Grace, Ill send you his CV!
Phew! My heart was racing there…yeah, you got me on that April Fool's prank! I was seriously going to cry because I wouldn't know where to get my fix!

The National's "Fake Empire" Used in Ad for Mitt Romney Campaign, Band Is Furious, Of Course
As the final weeks before the election draws near, the campaign on both sides is getting more and more heated. Both the President and the contender have employed various tactics to get their audiences' attention, and with the use of social media, blogs, and online videos, publicists have found creative ways to sell their message. The use of musical themes and power ballads has always been a good way of relaying the proper sentiment in commercials – but sometimes Artists don't like their music representing ideas that are not analogous to their beliefs.
One of the songs from the band, "The Nationals" was used in a pro-Mitt Romney video and was created by a group of Romney advocates from Ohio University. The Nationals, who were a staunch supporter or Barak Obama and his campaign, were furious about the incident especially considering the fact that they were never asked for permission to use their music in the first place. Matt Berninger from The Nationals made a lengthy comment about the use of their music for an ad they didn't support. After many viewers "thumbed up" the comment on YouTube, the uploaders finally called it quits and took the video down. This just goes to show that even with numerous amounts of spam and useless comments out there, not everybody on YouTube has the mind of an eleven year old.

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Righteous fury is wrong response to Boston
NEW YORK — A few days before Christmas in 1970, a teenager named Louis Taylor was having a good time at a party at the Pioneer Hotel in Tucson but quickly snapped into action when a fire broke out in the facility. The young man knocked on doors to alert guests of the situation and, when casualties started to mount, helped put injured people on stretchers. Twenty-eight people were killed that night.
But as Steve Kroft recently reported on 60 Minutes, rumours started circulating that Taylor might have been the culprit behind the blaze, and he was arrested and convicted. He spent the next 42 years in prison and was released only a few weeks ago.
There is little evidence, however, that Taylor committed the crime. For one thing, several fires had broken out at the location previously and all had pointed to another suspect, but that information was never presented to the jury. Top fire experts, looking at the case today, say that it's not even clear that arson was the cause.
Taylor confessed only after being questioned all night by eight different police officers and he did not have an attorney or guardian with him, suggesting, as Kroft puts it, that Taylor had been "railroaded." Far from there being enough evidence beyond a reasonable doubt, even the trial judge said later that he would not have voted to convict.
How, then, could Taylor have been wrongfully imprisoned? In the aftermath of what turned out to be the worst fire in Arizona's history, there was a strong and understandable desire to make sense of this tragedy, to find the guilty party, and to bring that person to justice. This desire, however, was not tempered with reason; other, less noble impulses played a role.
The original fire investigator decided that Taylor was the one to blame because, as an African American, "if they get mad at somebody, the first thing they do is use something they're comfortable with. Fire was one of them." The result was that a man who was probably innocent was denied something that can never be given back to him: more than four decades of freedom.
Two incidents this week prompt us to reflect upon the lessons from Taylor's story. The first is the terrorist attack at the Boston Marathon and the ensuing hunt for the person or persons responsible for this reprehensible act. The second is the publication of Samir Naji al Hasan Moqbel's op-ed in the New York Times, Gitmo Is Killing Me, which details the vicious treatment that Moqbel, who has not been convicted of or even charged with a crime, is receiving at the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay. He writes:
"I will never forget the first time they passed the feeding tube up my nose. I can't describe how painful it is to be force-fed this way. As it was thrust in, it made me feel like throwing up. I wanted to vomit, but I couldn't. There was agony in my chest, throat and stomach. I had never experienced such pain before. I would not wish this cruel punishment upon anyone."
As someone who has had a nasogastric tube placed without anesthesia myself, I can personally attest to the excruciating distress this causes, and in my case, the device was inserted by a physician who was trying to help me get better. I can't even fathom what it must have been like in Moqbel's situation.
"All men [sic] by nature desire to know," writes Aristotle in the opening of his work, Metaphysics, and when we're faced with evil on the scale of 9/11 or the Boston bombing, what we want to know most of all is, "Who did this and why?"
On the heels of these intellectual questions comes a more primal desire: revenge. We want to inflict the worst possible damage on those who would do us harm. The thinking — if you can call it that — goes something like this: "You hurt me. Now I'm going to hurt you even more."
There are several ethical problems with this line of reasoning. As the Pioneer Hotel case illustrates, a hot-blooded response to tragedy may result in punishing someone who had nothing to do with the crime. Meting out justice requires a cold, dispassionate view of the facts, and when you're filled with rage, it's virtually impossible to maintain the critical distance you need to see the world as it really is.
Another ethical issue that follows from an emotional, reflexive response to injustice is that the punishment we devise might be disproportionate to the crime. Even if Moqbel is lying when he claims that he had nothing to do with 9/11, how are we justified in subjecting him to the horrors he describes? Aren't the military's measures to keep him alive in the wake of his hunger strike a violation, at the very least, of the Geneva Conventions, the post-Second World War protocols that legally prevent all governments from abusing prisoners of war?
The only way to justify the treatment of people like Moqbel is if we declare that what they've done — or believe they've done — is of a magnitude so atrocious that even international law like the rules specified in the Geneva Conventions simply don't apply. That is the unapologetic position taken by a former vice president and recapped in R.J. Cutler's new documentary, The World According to Dick Cheney.
As Cheney puts it in the film:
"The basic proposition here is that somebody who conducts a terrorist operation, killing thousands of innocent Americans, they don't deserve to be treated as a prisoner of war, they don't deserve the same guarantees and safeguards that would be used for an American citizen going through the normal judicial process.
"This is a wartime situation and it does require tough programs and policies if you're going to be successful. And it (is) more important to be successful than it (is) to be loved."
The problem with Cheney's position isn't that our management of detainees at Gitmo makes America unlovable; it's that any society with a legitimate claim to being a democracy, one that has always prided itself on being committed to moral principles, cannot dispense with simple human decency the way one might discard an old wallet that has outlived its usefulness. We ought to treat everyone, even prisoners, with a modicum of respect and dignity, not for the narcissistic reason that we'll feel better about ourselves if we do, but because every human being is entitled to this.
Consider the following principle, upon which our way of life was built:
No free man shall be seized or imprisoned, or stripped of his rights or possessions, or outlawed or exiled, nor will we proceed with force against him, except by the lawful judgement of his equals or by the law of the land. To no one will we sell, to no one deny or delay right or justice.
This edict is a cornerstone of our democracy, but the formulation I've just quoted isn't found in the U.S. Constitution; it's from the Magna Carta, written — in Latin — in 1215. In our efforts to find terrorists and bring them to justice, whether the crime at hand is 9/11 or the bombing of the Boston Marathon, it's worth taking a step back, and perhaps a collective deep breath too, to consider how righteous fury can sometimes cloud our ability to see and do what's right.
If we're unwilling or unable to rethink domestic and foreign policy regarding suspected terrorists, we'll undermine the very goal of our extreme counterterrorism measures. That's the conclusion of the Constitution Project, which on Tuesday issued a nearly 600-page review of America's post-9/11 detention and interrogation programs. These practices, the nonpartisan, independent legal research group concluded, have "damaged the standing of our nation, reduced our capacity to convey moral censure when necessary and potentially increased the danger to U.S. military personnel taken captive."
It's of the greatest importance for a government to protect the lives of its citizens. But it's also crucial to uphold the ideals upon which that government rests. Good governments do both.

© Copyright 2015 Newton Citizen
PORTERDALE - City Manager Tom Fox presented a proposed $1.1 million budget to City Council members at a work session last week, along with a cautionary note that the city should "prepare for the worst and hope for the best."The proposed budget is more conservative than in years past, Fox told the council, and does not include a cost-of-living increase for employees. The council expects to have the first and second readings of the budget ordinance at the regularly scheduled City Council meeting at 6:30 p.m. March 2 at City Hall. Fox issued several budget-related recommendations to the council, including the formation of a budget/finance committee, a review of the city's labor resource allocations, approval of a street light fee to offset the operating cost of city lights, and approval of the sale of vacant lots in the city to generate revenue. Fox also suggested the city delay any capital expenditures, which would primarily relate to restoration of Porter Memorial Gymnasium, and passing the 2 cents-per-thousand-gallon wholesale water rate increase from Newton County on to water customers. Fox cautioned that refraining from increasing fees or taxes could make it necessary for the city to cut services. "If the consensus is not to raise taxes and not to raise fees, then the city will have to cut services," Fox said. "There's no other way to do it." Under the proposed budget, the city expects to collect $900,600 in general fund revenues, while total expenditures are budgeted at $1.1 million. The city expects to sell its reserve sewage treatment capacity to the Newton County Water and Sewerage Authority, netting approximately $208,000, which will be transferred to the general fund in order to balance the budget. Fox reminded the council members that the sale of the reserve capacity is a one-time opportunity that will not be available to help make ends meet in 2010. "So as you can see, if we were doing this budget for the following year, we would be $200,000 short," Fox said. The proposed budget includes little new spending. One exception is $42,800 budgeted to pay Porterdale's portion of the cost of operating the Newton County 911 Center. Porterdale's share is based on its dispatch call volume. Porterdale officials hope to reduce this cost through discussions with the 911 Center board of directors. New spending budgeted for the Police Department includes $3,600 for air cards for police officer laptops and $5,950 for the purchase of a used police vehicle.

Who are the real kingmakers in global security affairs? Journalists and historians alike tend to focus on great powers. Great powers, after all, are involved in the lion share of interstate crises and conflicts around the globe. But a closer look reveals that great powers' interests generally collide and clash over those countries 'caught in the middle'. From Egypt to Afghanistan, from Georgia to Ukraine, and from Serbia to Syria: the real pivot states are invariably located at the seams of the international system.Read more

Commentary on the Lamentations of the Prophet Jeremiah
SynopsisPeter Martyr Vermigli's earliest biblical commentary to survive is his lectures on the Book of Lamentations. As a refugee from Catholic Italy, Martyr sympathises with the Hebrew poet, who looks over the devastation of Jerusalem. The Introduction gives a précis of Christian Hebraism and pays particular attention to the Bomberg Bible. The notes highlight Martyr's allusions to the Jewish commentators of that Bible.

Brandon Lee died while filming the original movie, about a murdered rocker who comes back from the dead to seek revenge.
Director Alex Proyas completed the film as a tribute to Lee, and now the story is to be remade later this year (10).
Pressman has opened up about his plans for the revamp, telling MTV, "(We've got an offer out) to a major actor and things are moving ahead very aggressively, with the aim of doing the film this year. (It will be) quite different from Alex Proyas' approach with the original Crow.
"The setting is the southwest - the Mexico/Arizona area - and an urban (setting), Detroit or Pittsburgh or something like that. There are two locations that the film is set (in). Its initial platform is in the southwest and then it moves to the big city in the north, middle or eastern America, and then back."
