Ever wanted to watch The Droid Life Show live on your big screen? Even after the release of Chromecast, it's been fairly tedious due to the limitation on live video streaming from YouTube. We now know that that's about to change, as desktop streaming of live events looks to be working. (more…)
Google Update Bonanza: Maps, Translate, YouTube, Chromecast, Search, and Chrome Beta
Google is still going strong with their trademark "Update Wednesdays," and this week is absolutely no exception. We already saw the Wallet update and the possibly erroneous YouTube update, but now have a plethora of other fresh meat, most being relatively minor. Regardless, it's definitely a good thing to see Google paying attention and squashing those bugs, adding nifty new features along the way.
All the updated apps are listed down below. We'll be updating this post as we learn more. (more…)
Did Google Just Send Us All a YouTube 5.5.26 Update Meant to be Internally Dogfooded?
Sooooo, YouTube just updated on all sorts of devices, which often times prompts us to write it up. Thing is, today's update is different than most as it appears to have been an update targeted to employees of Google. Once updated, you'll see that the YouTube icon has changed to an icon with a bone inside, which means it is part of their "dogfooding" program. Dogfooding, meaning internal testing. (more…)
Thanks to New Bug, YouTube Playlists Tab Has Disappeared on iOS and Android App (Updated)
Sometimes, new functionality brings new issues. Such seems to be the case with saved playlists in the YouTube app for iOS and Android, which have disappeared for a number of users. (more…)
Everything Google is Struggling at the Moment… (Updated)
It's not you, it's Google.
The dashboard is showing all things "green," though. That is clearly wrong.
Update 11:19AM: We have orange for Gmail!
Update 11:22AM: Gmail is now sort of back. Can login to accounts, struggling with multiples, though. Contacts hating life. Hangouts won't sign-in at all.
Update 1:00PM: Gmail seems to mostly be up now after an hour or so of frustration. Everyone good?
We are seeing issues with Gmail, Google Apps, Hangouts, Google+, and more. Will update this post as things come back online.
Video: Android Design Team Talks Favorite Apps by Design, Including New Newstand and Timely
We are suckers for a well designed Android app, so from time to time we watch the Android team's "Android Design in Action" show to see what kinds of tips they can offer to developers, to stay up-to-date on new design guidelines, and also to see what apps they find to be well-designed. In the latest episode that aired yesterday, a number of members from the design team took a turn at walking through some of their favorite apps. You'll see one of our favorites, Timely (16:15), along with the new Play Newstand (6:15) app, Foursquare, Etsy (20:20) and others. (more…)
Google's YouTube Reportedly Launching Subscription Music Video Service
According to multiple sources, YouTube is looking to announce a fancy new subscription service, allowing users to check out on-demand music videos on both desktop and mobile platforms. As you should already know, Google recently launched a music subscription service earlier this year at Google I/O, named All Access. YouTube stated earlier this year that they did have a product to unveil later this year, so it is starting to look like a subscription service could be it. (more…)
YouTube for Android Updated to 5.1.10 – New Video Notifications and Google Ads Included
The wave of Google app updates continues to roll in today, with YouTube now joining the party. The Play store listing has yet to update and tell us what is new, but after opening the app, we noticed a couple of things almost immediately. The first, was a listing at the top our timeline which showed as an advertisement from Google for Drive. We aren't sure if we are only going to see Google ads like this after the update or if this is the beginning of a new advertising machine for any company. (more…)

New Balance 1600 "Urban Sky" by Zack Schlemmer 0 Comments
December 16, 2013 BY Brendan Dunne / 0
We'd suspect that the New Balance 1600 is a sneaker that won a number of new fans in 2013. We're attributing that to both the collaborative creations that released like UBIQ and Ronnie Fieg's along with the strong inline version that were issued via the Elite Edition branding. There's another of the latter that's arrived before the year's end-this one with its muted scheme that ends up with a bit more black than the similar New Balance 1600 "Wanted". Make sure you see the rest of the photos below and then grab a pair for yourself from the team at Feature Sneaker Boutique.

Day 57-59: Our last few days
... to an end and our thoughts are turning to seeing everyone one last time in Sydney and then to our new life in Austria. Day 59 After raining most of the night it continued this morning as we tidied up Bruce ready for giving him back tomorrow. We then drove through Kangaroo Valley but we could not see much on either side of the road. After a quick walk through the village in the rain we then continued to Fitzroy Falls where again we ...

We called in to the farmers markets on our way out on Saturday and got ourselves some pizzas and sweets. They were delicious. Into Central Tilba ...
Surfing and Sunburn
... Tomakin Cove and sunbathed for a while in the painful windy sand until Eva got attacked by a massive spider (in my head, it was big anyway for a beach spider so we moved a bit). Scott and I went for a nice beach run to the end where the river meets the sea and Scott saw a dog like Asta. Beach was very similar to down Albany way. We swam in the sea then Scott did some snorkelling while I topped up my tan, only saw a couple fish ...

I've just been browsing a website where the sourdough bread is labelled "Yeast Free". They couldn't be more wrong. OK, I accept it's a genuine mistake, based on lack of information (which I've emailed them to put right – nicely!). More worrying is that their baker might have told them that.
A sourdough culture is created from the natural yeasts and enzymes in the wholemeal rye flour used (or sometimes by exposing the dough to a favourable, yeast-rich, environment, like a plum orchard, as one US sourdough baker does – I wonder if he later fishes out the insects and bird crap?).
There is no added yeast in sourdough, as there is in ordinary bread, but there is still yeast, albeit a wild strain, or even several strains (of course, all yeasts once were wild). There'll be enzymes, too, because before yeast can ferment your dough, some of the starch has to be converted to sugar – that's the task of enzymes, like diastase, which gives its name to diastatic malt – use too much of that and your dough will be a sticky, sugary blob. That's also what gives malt loaf its gooey, sticky, texture.
This – being less robust than commercial yeasts, which have been bred for potency – is why sourdough can take longer to prove than, say, plain white. But, just as in the plain white, the leaven is yeast.
If something ferments, you can be pretty damn sure it's yeast doing the work* (if a fermentation smells beery, it's yeast, and a sourdough culture smells like essence of brewery**). Which makes me wonder – if not yeast, what do they think is in the sourdough culture to pump up the bread? Tiny men, with really tiny pumps, maybe? Buggered if I know, but if you're going to put medically-significant labels on your bread, you'd better damn well know…
*Bacterial fermentations normally take place in the gut, particularly of ruminants, and in industrial plants. Not in bakeries.
**Yeast converts sugars to alcohol and CO2 . The former accounts for the smell, and is driven off by the baking process, and the latter, trapped by the gluten, inflates the bread.

"For us, the idea of having a work that has contradictions is very important—when, in affirming something, it includes itself and attacks itself. How can you put together all of these things that have nothing to do with each other? You use glue! Glue can be an idea, a word. You can use an ideological glue."
SEGMENT: Ellen Gallagher in "Play"
From "Art in the Twenty-First Century" Season 3 (2005)
Featured in this video
From the series
Release date
October 7, 2005
Working with vintage magazines, Ellen Gallagher explores both the representation of ethnicity and the essential nature of identity. In a series of large paintings, she mounts page after page in a grid so that the viewer relates to the magazines in a spatial rather than a sequential way. "I'm collecting advertisements and stories and characters," she says. "And I see them as conscripts in the sense that they come into my lexicon without me asking them permission." Using an intricate printmaking process to engrave an image of Isaac Hayes, Gallagher comments"I think there is a nostalgia in my gathering of this material...yet in that gesture you're continually moving forward and continually seeing the world."

I loved this stuff! My hair is long, and often gets dry, frizzy and damaged... I have to leave conditioner in my hair for about half and hour every time I wash it. I had tried the whole "not using shampoo/conditioner" for a month and instead using baking soda and apple cider vinegar, but that didn't seem to do so much... my hair just got frizzier and more tangled.
I didn't want to use products with any chemicals/sodium laurel sulfate so I decided to try this stuff out when I went to Trader Joe's, and I love it so much!!! It's probably as good as the bumble&bumble I used to use, and no chemicals....
My only complaint is that the smell is a little plain. Not bad, just not as yummy as some shampoos/conditioners. But at least nothing obnoxious, and it smells very clean.

I've been looking for 'cone-free conditioner, but they all cost a fortune. This however costs $2.99! And it does the job, although it's not super-moisturizing. That's okay, though, nor were any other other 'cone-free conditioners I've tried.

I found my HG conditioner!!!!!!!!
I used to have the most beautiful waist-length golden blonde hair. Unfortunately, because of stress, it started changing texture (from thick and smooth into brittle frizzy cotton candy texture) and breaking off in chunks. I was eventually forced to chop it off at chin length, but even then it continued to break off. I've spend the last few years trying to get it to stop breaking so it can start growing my hair back.
I've tried everything. EVERYTHING: drugstore, high end salon brands, natural stuff, essential oils, even a horrible green mask that left my hair smelling like garlic for over a week. Biolage, k-pak, purology nanoworks, tigi, redkin, etc etc etc. None of them did much of anything. I used ShiKai for a while, which finally gave me very positive effects and made my hair stop breaking and I've been able to grow it to just past shoulder length so far, but after a while my hair started feeling dry and brittle again.
I've recently found that my hair likes silicone free products so I decided to try Trader Joe's Nourish conditioner after reading all the positive reviews. WOW!!!!!! I can't believe how soft and touchable my hair is! The ends don't look parched! It doesn't break off at the slightest tug!!! I was tempted to review it after the first time using it, but I like to wait a few weeks before I review anything. Several weeks later, this is still as wonderful as it was the first time I used it.
I use it in conjunction with the matching shampoo, which is also wonderful (and free of harsh detergents btw). It's white coloured, thick and creamy without being heavy. It smells like heaven! I don't usually care for fruity scents, but this is so light and pleasant and refreshing. It's rather melon-scented with a touch of green and an aquatic finish (i know that sounds a little weird, but i could seriously sit around and just smell this stuff).
It provides a wonderful slip, especially considering it's silicone free. It has plenty of wonderful natural ingredients and leaves my hair looking and feeling moisturized, soft, bouncy, and shiny. my SO can't stop touching it and neither can I. I haven't had touchable soft shiny hair for years.
I have a lot of hair so it feels thick, but actually the strands themselves are medium-fine and I'm amazed at how this conditioner doesn't weigh my hair down in the least.
I only wish TJ's made a deep conditioning treatment for this line, and maybe a leave in spray as well.
I use a touch of coconut oil on the ends if I need an extra touch of moisture (also a miracle product). I will continue to use this and update if there are any changes.
plus, it's only $3 a bottle!!!!!!! Definitely a refreshing change from the $50 a bottle for nanoworks.

This conditioner is wonderful! It's inexpensive, moisturizes my dry, kinky-curly hair! I washed my hair and used this conditioner, because I didn't have time to deep condition. My hair was super soft and moisturized!! Definitely an HG conditioner and it has nothing but good for your hair ingredients!!

I think the conditioner is better than the shampoo (which I also rated). The conditioner is very lightly scented- almost no scent at all- very light and clean. The conditioner is pretty thick without a ton of chemicals in it, and doesn't feel greasy or runny. When I first tried it I figured it wouldn't do much conditioning, but I was wrong. It rinses clean and lets you be able to run your fingers through your hair. Makes my hair soft without that oily feeling that some conditioners leave. It's not a miracle worker- so if you have very dry or damaged hair, this wouldn't be enough for you. But it's great for normal or slightly dry hair that needs "regular" conditioning. I'll definitely repurchase.

This is a very good basic conditioner for my wavy (2b), thick, dry Asian hair. Pros: creamy, no silicones (but does have parabens, FYI), provides enough slip, rinses very clean, smells great. Cons: Not super moisturizing - it won't be a deep treatment by any means. I consider this a pretty close dupe of Giovanni's 50/50 Remoisturizer conditioner but is way cheaper, and you get more product for the price. I will repurchase.

my hair is thick and dry. this product works well in moisturizing hair. please be warned: if you are looking for something to weigh hair down, add lots of fake shine or 'cones, etc. this doesn't have it. you will have to get that from styling products. this shampoo/conditioner pair is a basic pair to clean hair and moisturize w/out all the extra stuff. my hair has a natural shine to it when i use this, vs. fake. it's great for moisturizing as necessary and for volume.

Unfortunately, this conditioner doesn't work too well on my hair (I have dry-ish, curly, abundant hair). It seems to weigh my hair down, leaving it slick and limp.

This has a nice mild conditioner scent and love the fact that it is an organic product, but it weighs my fine hair down everytime.

Hayden Panettiere debuted her new bangs in the same $1,195 Alexander McQueen Stained Glass Print Mini Dress Nicki Minaj originally sported three weeks ago:
While Hayden paired her frock with the popular $950 Saint Laurent Paris 80 Ankle Booties, Nicki opted for red pumps.
The Pre-Fall 2013 long sleeve dress features an elaborate stained glass print.
Nicki's look is my fave here. Hayden's shoes should pair well with the dress, but they seem a bit hard as a complement.
What do you think? Who wore it better?
Nicki…Hayden needs to get in touch wit Nicki wigologist. That wig is a mess.
Hayden. Nicki's shape looks egregious in this dress.
Hayden, nicki looks wide and all outside!
Hayden looks waaaayyy better! Nikky's unnatural-looking, fake hips make her look like somebody's aunt in that dress. She looks like a frickin' centaur! #SayNO2PlasticSurgeryKids
Hayden because her body is real…
NICKI HANDS DOWN! haydens boots and hair are a mess
Nicki! Better shoes.
Hayden looks better, especially her boots.
they both look a hot, harsh mess. not feeling it.
Nicki clearly wins here, those boots Hayden had on killed it for her. The question wasn't about the shape of the person its who wore the outfit better.
its kinda a tie… they both bring something different with the dress. I actually like the edgy red booties. Nicki's wide shape is banging but I think we are getting sick of seeing it ALL the time.
Nicki. Not a fan of Hayden's shoes with this dress.
Both Graduated from Hot Mess University!!! Looks llike a hood dress.
lmbo @lila "centaur" though?!? lol that is true though.
Hayden looks like Betsey Johnson with that wig. She is too pretty for this mess. The dress is not cute so none is winning. But those Saint Laurent boots are fantastic. I need to score them in black before they sell out.
Hayden, Nicki's fake body ruins the dress… But they need to switch shoes!
so basically from the comments, it's tie. I go with nicki though. Her shoes match better and pink lipstick offsets the harshness of the red.
@lips: I totally agree with you. A shoe switch is very necessary!
In my opinion, a person's shape does go along with who wore it better. That's why the show "what not to wear" exists hello. They find nice outfits for the person's personality and body type. A person with big hips like Nicki Minaj is not going to look the same way as Hayden did in her dress. I liked both of their outfits, but that dress didn't flatter Nicki's body it made her look like my nana was wearing it. It suited Hayden more.
Hayden by all in all and overall is in a class of beauties that define all that is right, tight, and outta sight. Can't deny Hayden the premium prize of absolute gorgeousness. You totally Rock Hayden babydoll, you are deliciously sexy.

Always great food and a relaxing atmosphere. The pizza buffet is great so you can try a little of everything.
We visited Sammy's on a very busy night, Friday of Labor Day weekend. The place was packed and all pizza's were quoted 50-60 minutes. My husband and I were OK with that knowing we were going to order the salad bar as well as pizza. As I cannot eat cow cheese, I brought in my own goat cheese for my... More

Sammy's is well-known for its pizza, but some times it is hard to choose so why not try out the buffet! Good selection including soups and salads. A great value for the price which includes a cookie for dessert!

The pizzas were the last to arrive. They could use additional... More

Price: £12.99
Emergency Kit is an anthology with many differences. It is, to begin with, a book which gives prominence to poems rather than to the poets who wrote them. It is truly international, bringing together poems not just from these islands but from many parts of the English-speaking world. It is the first book to identify a strain in the poetry of the last half-century which is characteristic of the 'strange times' we live in - an age when, as the editors note, scientific discovery itself has encouraged us to 'make free with the boundaries of realism'. It values imagination, surprise, vivid expression, the outlandish and the playful above ideology and sententiousness. It is, in short, living proof that poetry in the English language continues to thrive and to matter.

Leaving Paris for Belgium

We stowed our suitcases then sat in our allocated, very comfortable seats for the relatively short trip to Lille, France, then leave the station, walk about 500 metres to Lille Flanders to catch the train to Charlerois, where our lovely friend, Jean-Pol was waiting for us. We spent the remainder of the afternoon chatting before enjoying J-P's great cooking, ...

No help as to how to get back on track either, total sulk. On a more amusing note, She does say to "keep driving on this road for a long time"! We worked out that this is a distance more than 10 km.

It is another damp cold day although it is not raining or freezing. We miss double glazing on days like this as our windows get full of condensation. Both of us are getting very desperate for a shower. Our immersion heater trips the electric and we obviously can't run our engine so we have no means of getting hot water other than by kettle. We are on a Town quay with no other facilities other than water ...

It is truly amazing that Time allowed Mark Halperin to publish the following caption and image on his blog, The Page -- no matter how briefly (the site has since pulled it down):
Maybe Halperin thought it was really clever to echo a scene from a late-90s romantic comedy, but it isn't. The image and all that it suggests -- yes, her hair is supposed to be held up by semen -- isn't supported by any facts provided by Halperin in his post. The page to which he links doesn't have anything to do with semen, romantic comedies, or hair gel. In fact, it's a statement from Sen. Mary Landrieu's (D-LA) Communications Director "on motion to proceed timing" on the Senate's health care reform bill.
In other words, it's part of a broader, sexist right-wing narrative that the U.S. Senator from Louisiana is, as Glenn Beck put it yesterday, "a high-class prostitute" engaged in "hookin'" -- all because she lobbied Senate leadership for expanded Medicaid funding for Louisiana in the Senate health care bill in what was characterized by the media as an exchange for her "yea" vote to proceed with floor debate on the bill.
Not to be left out, Rush Limbaugh got in on the action yesterday too, declaring that Landrieu "may be the most expensive prostitute in the history of prostitution."
These types of backwards, sexist remarks are what we have come to expect from Beck or Limbaugh, but this is truly a new low for Halperin, and, by association, for Time. As my colleague Julie Millican pointed out last week, the other weekly news magazine -- Newsweek -- has a sexism problem that it needs to address concerning another female politician.
So let this serve as a word of warning to those media figures like Halperin who like to think of themselves as separate and apart from -- perhaps I should say above? -- right-wing bloviators and pot-stirrers like Beck and Limbaugh: When you engage in baseless, sexist smears of women politicians, you are no different than the side-show commentators. Maybe you're worse -- at least they don't purport to be journalists.

The Washington Post's Howard Kurtz suggests women are less likely to watch "hard news" than men:
Hartford, Conn.: Do you think Good Morning America would change its format for George S. I have turned on MSNBC for years just to avoid the "how did you feel when you heard your whole family had been mauled by dogs and coyotes" questions. I would love to have "mainstream" TV on instead of MSNBC or Fox.
Howard Kurtz: I don't know. Much of the audience for morning shows is comprised of women, especially in the second hour. While I personally wouldn't mind it, moving to a harder-news format would be risky.
If Kurtz has any evidence that women are less likely than men to watch "a harder-news format," I'd love to see it. Otherwise, I'll just have to assume he's making that up. But why?
UPDATE: A Kurtz reader calls him on this nonsense:
Cambridge, Mass.: Wooooooow... because most morning viewers are women, a harder news format would be risky? Really? Really?
Howard Kurtz: The fashion- and cooking-type segments are there for a reason. Of course women are just as interested in important news as men. But morning shows are a peculiar animal, designed to be watched while many people are having breakfast and getting the kids off to school. I'd love to see GMA try a different approach. I'm just saying there's a reason that all three network morning shows do a lot of the tabloid stories and the fluffy stuff.
Kurtz seems to try to backtrack -- "Of course women are just as interested in important news as men." But he doesn't explain what the fact that the morning show audiences consist mostly of women have to do with anything. And his line at the end -- "I'm just saying there is a reason that all three network morning shows do a lot of the tabloid stories and the fluffy stuff" -- seems to reiterate his suggestion that women are more averse to hard news than men.

Fox News contributor and talk radio host Laura Ingraham took to Fox & Friends today to declare that "Nancy Pelosi basically did everything except sell her own body" to pass the House health care bill. None of the hosts objected - at least one of them chuckled. So there you have it: to the conservative media, it is appropriate to declare the first female Speaker of the House almost - but not quite! - a prostitute.
Meanwhile, over on Fox Business, Frank Luntz was calling Pelosi ""living proof you get one shot at a facelift," adding, "If it doesn't work the first time, let it go"
It's hard to get outraged, mainly because this sort of gender-based attack on Pelosi from conservatives has been par for the course for years. Back in May, we put together a research item and video compiling various attacks on her looks -- conservative media figures, especially radio hosts, seem to love to stick "Pelosi" and "Botox" in the same sentence. Over a six-day period, they characterized Pelosi as being incapable of "human facial expression," referred to her "fashionable" "Botox shots," and called her a "hag."
Perhaps this is why the Politico is reporting that the Republican Party has a "women problem."
Huffington Post's Sam Stein reports (emphasis added):
The New York Post editor fired after speaking out against a cartoon depicting the author of the president's stimulus package as a dead chimpanzee has sued the paper. And as part of her complaint, Sandra Guzman levels some remarkable, embarrassing, and potentially damaging allegations.
Guzman has filed a complaint against News Corporation, the New York Post and the paper's editor in chief Col Allan in the Southern District Court of New York, alleging harassment as well as "unlawful employment practices and retaliation."
As part of the 38-page complaint, Guzman paints the Post newsroom as a male-dominated frat house and Allan in particular as sexist, offensive and domineering. Guzman alleges that she and others were routinely subjugated to misogynistic behavior. She says that hiring practices at the paper -- as well as her firing -- were driven by racial prejudices rather than merit.
And she recounts the paper's D.C. bureau chief stating that the publication's goal was to "destroy [President] Barack Obama."
The most outrageous charges, however, involve Allan. According to the complaint:
"On one occasion when Ms. Guzman and three female employees of the Post were sharing drinks at an after-work function. Defendant Allan approached the group of women, pulled out his blackberry and asked them 'What do you think of this?' On his blackberry was a picture of a naked man lewdly and openly displaying his penis. When Ms. Guzman and the other female employees expressed their shock and disgust at being made to view the picture, Defendant Allan just smirked... [N]o investigation was ever conducted and the Company failed to take any steps to address her complaints."
Guzman's complaint goes on:
"On another occasion, upon information and belief, Defendant Allan approached a female employee during a party at the Post, rubbed his penis up against her and made sexually suggestive comments about her body, including her breasts, causing that female employee to feel extremely uncomfortable and fearing to be alone with him."
And finally: "... [W]hile serving as the top editor at the Post, Defendant Allan took two Australian political leaders to the strip club Scores in Manhattan..."
Guzman alleges that while at the paper, misogynistic and racist behavior was directed at her specifically. According to the complaint, she was called "sexy" and "beautiful" and referred to as "Cha Cha #1" by Les Goodstein, the senior vice president of NewsCorp. After doing an interview with Major League Baseball star Pedro Martinez, she says Allan asked her whether the pitcher "had been carrying a gun or a machete during the interview" -- a line Guzman said was racist and offensive.
When she would walk by certain offices at the paper, Guzman alleges, editors would routinely sing songs from West Side Story -- a nod to her Hispanic heritage -- including the tune: "I want to live in America."
Guzman also makes the following allegations to supplement her case that the Post harbored an environment that was offensive to women and minority employees.
"A White male senior editor sexually propositioned a young female Copy Assistant, telling her that 'If you give me a blowjob, I will give you a permanent reporter job.'"
"The last five employees who were recently terminated by Paul Carlucci, the Publisher of the Post.... Have all been black and/or women of color."
Read Stein's entire piece and the compliant in full here.
Politico's Ben Smith picks up an interesting angle to the story:
The New York Post and New York Daily News, for a time, complemented their fierce competition for circulation with bitter attacks on each other's staff and on their owners, Rupert Murdoch and Mort Zuckerman.
But Murdoch and Zuckerman, as has been reported, reached a truce of sorts, and they've been reported to be in sporadic talks about some sort of merger of -- at least -- the paper's back ends. And the clearest signal I've seen in a while of that rapprochement came this week, when a fired Post employee, Sandra Guzman, filed suit against the paper and its brawling Australian editor, Col Allan.
The Daily News offered a sanitized version of the story: "A New York Post editor sacked after complaining that a cartoon likened President Obama to a monkey sued the paper on Monday, claiming rampant racism and sexism in the newsroom," but detailed none of the actual allegations.
Meghan McCain writes about the sexist double-standards women in politics face:
The brutal criticism of Sarah Palin-which will only increase when her memoir comes out-is yet another example of the double standard and cruel treatment of women in politics. Sarah has been attacked for everything from her hair to her clothes to the number of children she gave birth to. Maureen Dowd even nicknamed her "Caribou Barbie." I can't even begin to think of what that kind of judgment-criticizing parts of your life that have nothing to do with what you stand for or want to accomplish politically-feels like.
Now, I'm not about to deny that women in politics often face double-standards and outright misogyny in the way the media treats them. They do, as I have often written. And that's something that should be addressed more frequently, so I'm glad McCain has done so.
But Maureen Dowd calling Sarah Palin "Caribou Barbie" isn't an example of a double-standard in which Dowd only makes such comments about women, it's an example of Dowd being a nasty and utterly pointless columnist who relentlessly mocks politicians -- male and female -- she dislikes, often focusing on their personal appearance or what she claims is their deviation from gender norms.
Dowd has called Barack Obama a "debutante" and a "pretty boy" and "effete" and compared him to Scarlett O'Hara. She repeatedly referred to John Edwards as "The Breck Girl" and a "Material Boy" and "Secretary of Hairdressing," and at least once dedicated an entire column to an Edwards hair cut. Dowd mocked Edwards for visiting "the Pink Sapphire spa in Manchester, which offers services for men that include the 'Touch of Youth' facial, as well as trips 'into the intriguing world of makeup.'" (Dowd remained silent about John McCain's own foray into the "intriguing world of makeup" at the Pink Sapphire.) And Dowd famously wrote that Al Gore was "so feminized ... he's practically lactating." (See, Gore wore a brown suit, and ... uh ... Well, actually, that was about it.)
Of course, all of these insults from Dowd are fundamentally sexist in nature. She belittles male politicians she doesn't like by, basically, calling them women. The obvious underlying assumption is that being feminine is a bad thing. So even when she obsesses over a male politician's personal characteristics, she often does so in a way that indirectly insults women.
But Dowd's reference to Sarah Palin as "Caribou Barbie" isn't an example of her singling out women for criticism over "parts of [their] life that have nothing to do with what [they] stand for or want to accomplish politically." It's an example of her behaving like a mean-spirited seventh-grader with little of substance to say.
And it's a reminder that it actually understates the misogyny in Dowd's columns to suggest that she critiques the physical appearance of only women in politics.

Remember Marc Rudov? He's the frequent Fox News guest who thinks Hillary Clinton deserves to be called a "B-word," ridiculed a study on housework as the product of a "gyno-versit[y]," insists that "girls just love to expose themselves," among other things.
Rudov, who nevertheless calls himself a "feminist," has now brought his stylings to Accuracy in Media, where he has a column bashing NBC's Maria Shriver for her "A Woman's Nation" series:
Maria Shriver, you have two sons and two daughters. Do your sons like hearing from you that they're growing up in a woman's nation? I doubt it. What will their friends say? Nothing flattering. What will your daughters think about their brothers - and all men? Isn't your TV program just as destructive as those that once prompted mothers to teach "life in a man's world" to their daughters?
Rudov is just getting warmed up. He then declares that all "laws and policies that confer upon women unilateral rights and protections in rape, reproduction, abortion, custody, child support, domestic violence, workplace practices, and immigration" are "unconstitutional" because "[o]ur legal system is designed to be blind to specific groups," yet such laws get passed anyway because "spineless men fear retribution from feminists and sexual retaliation from their wives for writing, passing, enforcing, and adjudicating gender-neutral laws."
Rudov then blames American women for the current state of American men:
Men are fast becoming slacker dudes and permanent blue-collar workers. This is because highschool programs favor girls; college-enrollment stats prove it. Not only are women dominating at the undergraduate level, they are receiving more than 50% of degrees in law, medicine, and business. At UC Davis 80% of veterinary grads are women. The trend of female domination is growing unabated.
Is this a problem? You betcha. A society of marginalized men is a weak society. Whom will these highly educated women marry? Slacker dudes? I don't think so. Given that 40% of American children are born out of wedlock, marriage isn't a big concern for many women. Too bad. Every study of teenage pregnancy, drug usage, alcoholism, gang membership, crime, and school dropouts points to the lack of fathers at home. Women file 70% of divorces and choose single motherhood as a lifestyle.
Then, it's back to bashing Shriver, claiming that she's "compounding the omnipresent wedge between men and women" and that "any men who rally your cause are pathetic eunuchs - proof of your thesis."
Yet Rudov did find one bright spot in his alleged emasculation:
In canonizing women as strong, smart, talented, and self-reliant - and they are - you have done men a big favor: terminated all justification for women to receive alimony and child support. You are the alimony terminator. We love you. This is fantastic, as Arnold would say.
And so, America is now a Woman's Nation, a matriarchy, a gynocracy. Women are in control. They no longer need, and therefore cannot require, men to support them financially - at any time, in any way, for any reason. Otherwise, they'd be hypocrites, wouldn't they?
Sounds like Rudov needs to decide whether he's upset that women are taking over or relieved because he's no longer expected to do anything for them.

porcelain doll parts, I need legs
jimavaJune 25, 2002
I made a porcelain doll years ago, in another state, in the move I broke one of her legs and need a new pair. Does any one have any sources for these. I have searched in Illinois and it is not as popular craft as it was in Alaska. I would like to display my "first born" but she needs legs.
This is the site of a dollshop n my area.....I know that she does supply lots of parts for people. I took a couple of classes and she is very nice and helpful.....She has tons of doll molds and lots of spare parts so perhaps she could help you..here is her contact page...
Here is a link that might be useful: Dolls in Wonderland
