Saturday, April 13, 2013 - Waterbury, Conn.
Strong pitching efforts by Chelsea Botsch and Jillian Stafford helped the Wilmington University softball team earn a Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference doubleheader sweep over Post University, 3-0 and 3-1, at LaMoy Field on Saturday.
Wilmington (24-16, 11-5 CACC) scored six runs in six different innings throughout the doubleheader, riding the arms of Botsch and Stafford to sit in fifth place in the CACC standings. Post (14-20, 7-12 CACC) also received complete games by Ashley Cummings and Johanna Rice, but could only combine to collect 10 hits in the doubleheader off the Wildcats.
Botsch worked her way through the first game, tossing all seven inning while only allowing four hits and not giving up any runs or walks. The sophomore struck out five batters in improving to 9-7 on the year with her first complete game shutout.
The Wildcats only mustered six hits in the first game, but finally got on the board in the top of the fourth off Cummings. Brook Ash collected her second hit of the game to lead off the fourth, helping her move closer to the all-time single season hits record. Christin Headley moved Ash to second base with a sacrifice bunt before Rachel Painter reached on an error by the pitcher, allowing Ash to score from second for the game's first run.
Headley accounted for the Wildcats' second run of the game, smashing a double in the sixth to score Cambria Ziemba from first base. After singling to lead off the seventh, Brooke Berger scored on another Post error, giving the visitors a 3-0 lead.
It was more than enough for Botsch in the middle of the circle, as she denied the Eagles any runs, working around hits in both the sixth and seventh inning. She induced a game-ending double play in the bottom of the seventh, fielding the grounder and tossing it to Headley at second before turning two.
Stafford leveled her season record, improving to 3-3 overall with a game two victory, throwing the complete with while only allowing one run on six hits.
The Wildcats got the bats going in the top of the first inning, scoring a run on two hits. Ziemba started the game off with a single through the right side, moving to second as Ash grounded out to third. Two batters later, Stafford helped herself out with a single into center field, scoring Ziemba from third for the game's first run.
Stafford would receive all the run support she would need with another run in the top of the third, as Headley took care of it all by herself, hitting her third home run of the season to center field.
Post got a run back in the bottom half of the inning, but Stafford got out of the jam while only allowing the one run on two hits. The Eagles would not have more than one batter on base the rest of the game.
Wilmington added an insurance run for Stafford in the top of the sixth inning, again on one swing of the bat. Senior Skye Boris hit her fourth home run of the year, a solo shot over the fence in left, for the 3-1 lead.
Stafford set the Eagles down in order in the bottom of the sixth and worked around a leadoff single in the seventh to close the door and pick up the CACC sweep for the Wildcats.
Ash and Stafford were the only Wildcats to record three hits in the two games, as Ash went 2-for-4 in game one and followed it up with a 1-for-4 performance in game two. Stafford went 1-for-3 in game one while hitting 2-for-3 with an RBI in game two. With the three hits, Ash now has 59 hits on the season, three off the all-time single season mark for a Wildcat.
The Wildcats, who have now won 12 out of their 14 games, return home to Asbury Field this week for three CACC doubleheaders. They will play Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday at their home field, first starting with Chestnut Hill on Tuesday. First pitch is scheduled for 3 p.m.

"Empty legs," the so-called repositioning flights that have no passengers, represent a growing marketplace of bargain charter opportunities, and it's easy to see why. Many charter flights carry only crew because the aircraft is on its way to pick up travelers or going somewhere empty after dropping them off.

Since the Wright brothers' first flight, major improvements in safety have resulted primarily from technological advances. The reduction in accidents over time has paralleled improved airplane and wing design and engine-propulsion technology, the introduction of traffic collision avoidance systems, terrain warning indicators and other innovative equipment.

The Dish: Egg Soufflé Had enough of the same old scrambled eggs for breakfast? Consider the egg soufflé from South Florida-based caterer Silver Lining. Executive chefs Andrew Whiteman and James Donato came up with the recipe.

Introduced in 1977, the hawker 700 has endured thanks to its durability, spacious stand-up cabin and bargain prices. You can pick one up on the used market for as little as $1 million. spend a little extra on paint, a new interior, a cockpit makeover and a maintenance service plan, and your airplane will be hard to distinguish from a brand-new Hawker 900XP selling for $14 million.

Scaling back doesn't have to mean giving up the benefits of private aviation and settling on airline travel.

It's understandable that no equivalent to your local auto-parts store exists for business jets. Aircraft maintenance records must be documented scrupulously, and the pedigree of every nut, bolt and washer has to be recorded for possible FAA review. So, when it comes time to replace a fuel pump or engine mount-or even a tire-it makes a difference where the part comes from.

Mar 13, 2015I was stunned at how little there was to like about this movie. There is no payoff for the unpleasantness you are forced to sit through. Completely unredeeming and depressing. Consider this: Megan Fox is actually one of the few good things about the movie.
Feb 27, 2015I don't remember anything but somehow hating girls music a little more and paul rudd failing to make cupcakes funny...which isn't easy i bet....december 5th is my actual birthday too ......
Feb 16, 2015This movie is pretty decent. Arguing over which music is best. The father likes rock music, the mother likes classic pop music, and the kids like the modern pop music. It seems pretty legit.
Nov 23, 2014This is 40 is a movie for anyone in their teenage years to anyone in middle age. Its full of good laughs and this movie does very well considering Seth Rogen is not featured in the sequel to Knocked Up. Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann are great. Another great Judd Apatow film.
Jul 12, 2014funnier than expected, but its a typical 1 time see movie and thats it.at least you can see leslie´s **** and megan is always welcome
Jun 23, 2014This Is 4o is an excellent movie from Judd Apatow. The nail is pretty much nailed on the head regarding marriage and children. There were just so many familiar sights on offer here! Plus it was really funny.
Mar 2, 2014judd apatow films are amazing expect the 40 year old virgin . leslie mann and paul rudd are funny including melissa mccarthy . but judd keeps making r rated films . make a pg13 film first

Dec 8, 2013Epically awful......................................................................................................................................................
Aug 15, 2013Cliche, predicable, boring, annoying add up to waste of time. It's just a sequence of celebrity and brand name dropping with adults acting out as irresponsible adolescents and adolescents acting out as mouthy brats. I watched half before calling time-of-death.
Aug 6, 2013The first word that comes to mind with this movie is "miserable". There was no central plot and the parts that actually were there are put out there and then ignored and practically unused. It was just plain terrible with very few parts even attempting comedy.
Jul 18, 2013The movie has its fair share of laughs, although none of them are of the gut busting variety, and Mann and Rudd do a commendable job of carrying the film on their combined shoulders. But This Is 40 ultimately fails due to a maddening lack of focus. It feels like it's trying to go in ten different directions at the same time.
Jun 13, 2013So funny!!!!!! I laughed my butt off. I love all of Judd Appatow's movies. There is always a great combination of hilarious and meaningful sentiment towards them. Rudd and Mann make a great combo.
Jun 4, 2013"While it comes with many flaws. This is 40 is a calmly funny, up-beat comedy that takes us through the mid-life crisis. While its not always laugh out loud funny. Thanks to comedic timing by Rudd & Mann, this movie saved itself from being a much worse" C
Apr 30, 2013A typical Apatow movie funny with enjoyable stars, but a tad long. This film was enjoyable mainly because you have Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann two very likeable and funny stars.
Apr 29, 2013This film was completely garbage, it shows that Judd Apatow can out anything and it will be picked up by some mainstream studio. This film is nothing like Knocked Up so if you are hoping for some similar laughs you are lookin in the wrong place. This movie consists of a married couple and moaning about life not living up to their expectation. Completely and utter crap.
Apr 27, 2013There are some funny one-liners, but the irresponsible nature of the characters in this movie drove me nuts. The fathers in this movie are total dead beats and all the fighting and bickering got annoying. If there is one message to take away from this, having kids is no reason to keep someone around!!!
Apr 26, 2013This review contains spoilers, click expand to view.
Apr 16, 2013There are a lot of great comedic actors having great fun here. Like many of Apatow's films, it's too long, kind of self-indulgent and not quite sure of what it wants to be. However, the characters spoke to me. It's not so much a study on middle age, but not knowing where you are in life, at any age. It isn't perfect, but it doesn't have to be.

Apr 13, 2013
Apr 12, 2013This movie is CRAP! I recall it being a comedy but it is just actors reading a script in front a camera. The only person who added life to this movie is Megan Fox...just saying.I normally like to watch movies that show real life events but those kids are just TV BRATS that would influence REAL LIFE BRATS. My opinion is this movie is
Apr 6, 2013A remarkably funny movie based around concepts that feel so relatable and honest. The improvisation in this movie was great, and you really feel as if you understand the characters. Fun and serious and everything in between in only a way Judd Apatow could deliver.

Mar 20, 2013Bland, annoying and badly executed, Judd Apatow disappoints once again. If you liked Knocked Up, give this one a miss.
These movies with family members playing major roles don't ever work, learn your lesson Apatow. -

Mar 9, 2013Absolutely loved it. Favorite comedy of the year! Thought it was fantastic from start to finish. Was my life! Cannot wait to see what Rudd does next! 10/10
Mar 3, 2013
Feb 22, 2013
Feb 14, 2013Funny. With a dose of pathos and melodrama. If an up-and-coming director made this it would be receiving the plaudits it deserves as a very very solid comedy/drama. I went to see it at 6pm on a wet Thursday in Scotland and the half empty theatre loved it. Judd's becoming a victim of his own success. Another great comedy. Genuinely funny people making a genuine, and genuinely funny, film.
Feb 13, 2013Funny as heck!! Paul Rudd is the best! There are so many great moments that you can barely find time to stop laughing before something else happens. Anyone with pre-teen aged kids can relate to most of this story. My only real issue with the movie is that it is entirely too long for a movie of its type. Its a comedy about life at 40, not a Lord of the Rings trilogy!!
Feb 13, 2013Marketed as the 'Sort-of sequel to Knocked Up', writer/director/producer Judd Apatow returns with his regular blend of bickering tragicomedy, only this time it's more cantankerous, self-aggrandising, and most painful of all longer then it ever should or deserved to be.

Jan 26, 2013How did this movie even get over a 6 from the users? C'mon people. This movie is unbearable. Its 2 hours and 20 minutes of people yelling at each other. The characters are insufferable. I hated them all. This is 40 is not a funny movie. Nor is it a good movie. Skip it.
Jan 24, 2013
Jan 21, 2013This is 40 is a tale of 2 movies. The first hour and half seems forced, unnecessary and has mindless conversations. The last 40 minutes, Apatow brings back his old ways of comedy and has some of the funniest scenes since The 40 year old Virgin
Jan 21, 2013This movie is so bad it hurt my eyes to watch,Leslie Mann is less than a one trick pony and if she wasnt married to apatow she would be dredging a living on reality shows....maybe.
Paul Rudd looks a sif he wants to scream.."where did it all go wrong"!
The only possible saving Grace is Mellisa Mcarthy who is always a joy.
dont watch this, you will never get the time back! -

Jan 10, 2013
Jan 9, 2013Maybe it is about 20 minutes to long and concludes the main plot point twice, but "This Is 40" is full of comedic moments and overall relatable content that is definitely worth a watch.
Jan 5, 2013
Jan 4, 2013Fight-make up-fight-make up-fight=make up. There is never a big moment in this movie. Right when you think that their gonna have the fight to end all fights and the movie is gonna take some sort of a turn, the fight is over and we go back to square one. No real story arc. The acting is good and there's a few funny parts. Not a bad movie but definitely not Apatow's best by a long shot.
Jan 3, 2013
Jan 3, 2013Not even the stunning Megan Fox can save this film.
Jan 2, 2013
Jan 2, 2013I absolutely loved this movie and didn't want it to end. I can't wait another 5 years for a sequel, I want Apatow to write another immediately, or put everyone in a sitcom or reality show. I laughed and I cried, I love Leslie and her daughters the most.
Jan 1, 2013A little long, a little inconsistent, and a little full of unnecessary supporting characters. In the end its success hinges on the likability of its cast, and it that regard it mostly works.
Jan 1, 2013I really think Apatow is trying to win an Oscar. This film is so more serious and relatable than his previous ones, and I'm not sure how I like it. It's a pretty good movie and it definitely makes you question your realationships but the 2 and a half hour run time are felt, and at times it is more awkward than enjoyable. Still a pretty good movie even if it is nothing like the other ones.
Jan 1, 2013This is 40 is self indulgent, silly and only occasionally funny. The main problem is its just too long, scenes dither and meander which ultimately detracts from any possible cinematic weight or substance. I have no doubt that there is a perfectly funny, astute 90min movie itching to get out of this fatty 134 min sludge of a film. A crying shame.

Dec 26, 2012
Dec 26, 2012This movie is funny but ultimately bland and pointless. At least 45 minutes of the film (which never really goes anywhere, or has any sort of plot) could be cut out and the same message will still be gleaned. Fans of Knocked Up may enjoy this, but otherwise it is a mediocre romantic comedy.
Dec 25, 2012This is 40 was hilarious. In my New York cinema on Christmas Day the crowd started laughing from the first line and didn't stop til the end. Metacritic can make you doubt the wisdom of critics sometimes; this was easily the most enjoyable film I saw all year (other than Brooklyn Castle). Go see it - and stay for the credits.
Dec 24, 2012
Dec 24, 2012
Dec 22, 2012This is classic Apatow-very funny and very naughty.Rudd and Mann make a good couple and the daughters are adorable.But Apatow needs to learn that sometimes less is more as this movie would have been better at 105 minutes than it is at 130 minutes.As funny as it is it seems very long for a comedy.
Dec 22, 2012Overall this is an enjoyable and funny movie. It hit the comedic mark in many moments and was not a rehash of other films of this genre. But it was uneven and slow at times.
Dec 22, 2012
With his fourth film as writer-director, Judd Apatow has arguably made his most personal film yet, without forgetting to make us laugh.
Jan 11, 2013Apatow's return creates a pleasantly sprawling, perceptive study of mid-life angst that never lacks for laughs. Promoting Rudd and Mann from Knocked Up's margins to centre stage proves to be a shrewd move.
It's not bad, exactly – but it is boring and very rarely funny. This is laboured. This is aimless. This Is 40. It's really quite a grind.

An interesting exhibit; The 2014 Whitney Huston Biennial: I'm every Woman.
Early this year there was an exhibition in Dumbo, but contrary to what the title of the exhibition may suggest it was not a tribute, or singer of the late singer. Instead it was chosen works from 75 different female artists across all range of ages, backgrounds, cultures and artistic disciplines.
With many positive responses towards sparking interest in female artists as well as for the female artists themselves to gain representation in their disciplines on a market which is not yet equal. We also welcome this month's sponsor Leicester Locksmiths who will help fund this academic project.
The contributory artists are all of strong individualistic nature, and have their own style and expression which was show cased. The exhibition was only open for one night, and in a more symbolic way this is representative of women uniting, even for one night and much like those who followed Whitney Huston's life and career knows, the exhibition was called an innovative endeavour which we hope will live on, just as Whitney Huston's incredible spirit and voice has done.
Liberal feminism
Here at feminists for choice we would like to give a little bit of information and hopefully education to what feminism includes. But to begin with we think it would be a good idea to make sure that we have the general definition of the word as clear as we can. Feminist theory is simply striving for equality between men and women. There are today various activist groups under the banner of feminism, and some of the many different ways to battle for women's rights are not agreeing on many points.
The general concept of feminism and the generally accepted idea is that feminists work for increasing equality, and where possible make efforts and place energy in being able to push for change where needed. For many feminism is also closely linked to theories on freedom. That is freedom of choice, for each individual, regardless of gender to be able to strive to better their best traits as they like the rest of the people have their right to take opportunity.
Inside of our society pretty much all feminists fight to ensure that the norm of minimum wage, educational accessibility, job opportunities etc. In our current day life, and our modern day society there is ample need for the advocates of women's rights to be given a bit of time.
The last things which we here at feminists for choice thinks it's safe to say is part of every feminists guide book. Namely the cause of ending sexual violence and promoting sexual freedom. Where a woman has the right to decide what happens to her body.
For us here at feminists for choice, what we here see as the most fundamental of all principles which unite feminists and humanists all over the world. Of course we speak of the principle of equality. For us here at feminists for choice this is not only between the sexes but for everyone. And wanting to take it one step further it even becomes about being seen without judgment or predetermined fabricated negatives.
As mentioned there are countless of sub genres to feminism, and they are not always in agreement with each other. More commonly these days is a liberal type of feminism working with an open and changeable way of thought. Keeping the before mentioned points at the base. Opposite this liberal way of being a feminist there is a more socialist type of feminist thinking, which deals more strictly with issues involving work, economies, opportunity and much more.
Of course in each individual's own practice of feminism should it be an active and activist type of practice, or should it be of a less radical type, is personal. And for us here at feminists for choice the thing that matters to us, is that the matter of equality is something that we actively fight for as the right to opportunity does not come free, and keeping our own selves going in a good direction forward is more important than being passive and idle in the matters at hand.
Points to keep in mind, a feminist way of thinking
There are a couple of things, arguments, opinions, simply put, points. That need to be kept in mind in your day to day life. Firstly there is no doubt about some sort of gender system existing. There is not only the pure biological facts, but in the society we are divided into a masculine and a feminine group. This is a behavioral and social part which can be damaging. There is also no doubt that in the past women have suffered great injustice and inequality, and we have to ask ourselves where we are on this road today. Another point which is to keep on that noodle is that sexism does also exist. There are many who hold judgmental and discriminatory views, as well as implicate these views today. Lastly it's also important to remember that there is a big gender difference when it comes to our sexuality and the relations we have with each other. This is also a fact, and something that will effect how we define equality between the two sexes.
Feminism and Psychology – A Journal
Here at feminists for choice we would like to recommend a journal called Feminism and Psychology, it's an acclaimed international peer reviewed journal that provides a forum where you can take part of their discussions, and read what those in the profession has to say. It's very interesting, and something that we highly recommend you have a look at should these subjects interest you.
Of course the main points that are discussed here is the interface between psychology and feminism. The aim for the journal itself is to help develop theories which are applicable to practice and inclusive of psychology, or as they state, even beyond. In the journal you can find many high quality originally performed surveys and experiments as well as critiques and theoretical articles.
Reasons to become a feminist
If you are not already a feminist there are only reasons for you to become one. You may realise and see many things just slightly differently in the world. We wanted to give some quite obvious examples here, for example how many of children's shows and toys are made strikingly stereotypical. This one is a difficult one to get over, as it's so widely spread and so current. Secondly you may also realise that the mainstream media today, the most popular films, tv shows, music and celebrities all portray women, not as independent personalities, but in some strange way in which the female is reliant, needing and in awe of the male counterpart.
Lastly, you may also realise that you can be a feminist no matter what your way of life is. A feminist house wife and mother of 3 is as valid as a lesbian woman activist fighting for gay and women's rights. Feminism has not moved enough in the last decade, due to the fact that it's been forgotten about somehow, in the midst of every things else. But equality between the sexes is just as important as it is to eradicate racism.
Feminists paining women as victims; an untrue and uneducated view
As we have touched on before there are some modern fabs on the Internet which seem to be coming to some very strange and untrue conclusions. Of course here at feminists for choice we believe that everyone has the right to their own views and their right to exercise their freedom of speech. The only thing that we would have an issue with is when bias and uneducated viewers make radical claims against a movement that have been fighting for equality though history. A common of these uneducated criticisms on feminist, is stating that feminism makes women into victims.
However this is not true, as such a statement could only come from the mind of someone uneducated in the history and the principals of the movement itself. What they often face to realise as well is that the movement is continuously changing. For us here it should be the last thing you should would want to do is complain about those who fought for your rights.
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
Here at feminists for choice we would like to take the opportunity to present a brilliant young woman. Namely Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, a Nigerian born writer currently seen as one of the most prominent of critically acclaimed young authors, who is successful in gaining a new generation of readers to African literature. In the current every so discussed question of the term feminism, to the question "why use the word feminism instead of human rights" she has stated simply because it is dishonest.
We see her and her view, and feminism is something which is part of human rights, but it's too vague of a description, and stating human rights when speaking about the specific problems related to gender it would be to deny the issue. After a long history of female suffering, it's only fair to acknowledge the issue, an issue which still exists, rather than placing it in the margins as a problem not to be resolved. So if you are a reader, we recommend Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.
Emma Watson and the HeForShe campaign
This is the biggest news currently in the media eye in the fight for feminism. In her speech which she held as a goodwill ambassador for the UN, promoting the HeForShe campaign she addressed the issues with the current misconception and wrongfully negatively loaded currently common view of feminism. She also spoke of the imbalance in the audience of those who support feminism, and that there are many male gender stereotypes which we also need to work to abolish. She was straight, and said that feminism, is a cause which is for everyone.
One of the most important things she bought up, that we see here, is simply how the fight for equal rights have stagnated, and that we've not moved further along since a decade back. A better way of viewing and portraying the fight for gender equality is needed from every point. Emma stated many truths in her speech and one of the most profound and valid which we see here is quoted below. We would like to offer you the opportunity to read and reflect on the worlds. Post sponsored by Bristol Locksmiths Service.
" Both men and women should feel free to be sensitive. Both men and women should feel free to be strong… It is time that we all perceive gender on a spectrum not as two opposing sets of ideals."
Emma Watson
Gender is a social construction?
This question is something that has been, and still is on the discussion board of many situations. Weather in the board room of a feminist movement or with a pint at the local pub, and we thought we'd say a couple of things on this subject.
We consider that the statement, as many others have surpassed its own time of relevance. It's true that there will always be some form of culture nurturing certain things and in the race for social acceptance one must follow. However, there are also numerous things which suggests that it may not only be a cultural drive behind, but also a biological one. With the growing research done in neuroscience, psychology and micro biology there are clear imperial facts stating that there are fundamental differences in the genders. Of course this is the grounds for a much bigger discussion, but the thought of gender as a social construct must also evolve as we know more and more about ourselves.
About the rise of Black Feminism
In the early days of the feminism as a whole, it was not what it is today, and by women, in the definition by many of the feminists of the time, nonwhite women in the working class were excluded from the agenda. This was something which of course which to many seems hypocritical, and luckily this was the thought of some women of the time, both black and white. This gave rise to another feminist movement, namely black feminism. Women's liberation needed to be focused on the liberation of all women, regardless of race or class, and in the battle to make the liberation applicable to every woman Bell Hooks made her voice heard.
In this time the national black feminism organisation and the national alliance of black feminists were also formed, and as a side note this was during the time when the Black Power Movement was also in full running. There was another movement that spurred off at this time as well, which was the Womanism movement, and writer Alice Walker was one of the leading names at the time in the intellectual bridging between white and black feminism, in her works she examined society at the time as a whole, rather than divide things into smaller issues providing a better general understanding for all.
About the Women's Liberation Movement
In the light of giving information on the Suffrage Movement, we would also like to mention the Women's Liberation Movement which started after the second world war, where a higher and higher number of women were getting education. Many of which pursued higher education such as collage and university students as well, however after leaving their academic life they were met with much resistance and inequality towards jobs which matched their education and their intellect.
The Women's Liberation movement, in the 1970s were much about changing the lives of women in that age, and focus was mainly on employment, education and sexuality. Worth mentioning in this is a lady called Betty Friedan, who was a prominent feminist of the time founded the National Organization for Women, NOW for short, which was became a huge umbrella type organisation taking many branches and feminist causes under its wing and played a big role in the history and development of rights for women.
Quickly about The Suffrage Movement
Although the first women's rights, and feminist movements did not go under the name of feminism. They in today's view can very much so be classified under it. The word feminism itself gained its current association with the feminist movement came from France where the word was initially used to describe support for women's rights.
The Suffrage movement started at the 19th century, and is mainly interconnected with the battle to gain women's rights to vote. This movement crossed boarders, and although in some countries under another name, in many of them there was some level of success. In the late 19th century, in countries like Sweden, Finland and in some of the western states of the U.S, limited voting rights for women were instated. It's worth noting that the first country in which the movement took off was in Finland. Which also logically explains the progression.
But we've come a long way since then, and the focus is becoming more and more centered around human rights, than just feminism.
How can we reach a state of equality?
This must be the question we ask ourselves before we start shouting about everything that is wrong. The focus must be the solution, and not the problem. Of course you can only come to a solution by investigating the issues, however when it comes to equality, in the name of feminism or not, complaints without any suggestions for improvement is just something different feeding a negative cycle.
On the subject of the gender based roles the equality must be searched for in a way, where women can have opportunity to be industry professionals without having to give up their femininity. The same must be shown the other way around, and men must have the right to choose their life without the basis of a gender. Meaning that the way we view things must change. There is giving and taking in each of the discussions of this type, and everyone must have open ears, and open minds for anything to move forward.
This too might be words stating an impossible ideology, however, there is no gain in treading water at a point far from equality and opportunity for everyone.
In the question of if we still need feminism
This question is widely discussed, and there are many supporters of both sides to the coin. Some say that feminism is a dated method of chasing equality, and some see the gender based roles still implemented and use this as the argument for answering yes to the question whether feminism is still needed or not.
On this point we would like to emphasize our own view and standpoint as feminism as a point and discussion about equality, regardless of gender, race etc.
However there are many situations where a strong form of discrimination against women is in place, but the women affected are happy in their situation. The question must then become, is it not our responsibility to find that which is common to all women, and all people, and make sure that the human rights and equality is what we strive for, and not be lazy, in our lives, opinions or standpoints. This as, just to raise the question mark, plus there are more modern turn and views on feminism than there has ever been. Thanks to
The first feminists
The question of who the first feminists were is a difficult and vague one. The previously mentioned Abigail Adams was certainly one of the earlier ones, however due to the nature of the question. It's very difficult to pin point where the first feminist movements really started. It was not really until the sixties and seventies that the word feminism became widely used. There are some who say that feminists are those who state themselves feminists and fight for women's rights and equality, not only between the sexes, but for everyone.
Since the first feminists were unaware of the terminology which came to follow one could say that the first feminists were those women who fought for their rights first. But since the rights in question and the goals in question have always been different, any type of equality movement which included women as to have equal rights in any manner could be called a feminist. In turn it makes the question vaguer, and harder to answer. But if we go for a textbook answer, the first feminist movement became active during the sixties. Thanks to Locksmith Brighton's Locksmiths Damien for contribution in July to this post.
Third wave feminism
We would like to tell you a little bit about the differences between many feminists today, versus those from 40 years ago during the second wave of feminism. So, we are currently in the third wave of feminism, which has changed focus slightly and left behind the days of the early feminism. Theories that deal with feminism in this third wave usually involves subjects like anti-racism, consciousness, women of colour and power. At times this type of feminism also touches on subjects like trans-nationalism, cyber-feminism, eco-feminism and individualist feminism. What may be much appealing to many in this wave of feminism as well is that often seen as a positive aspect of life, rather than something which can be oppressive. The biggest example of this may be that during the second wave there was a strong resistance towards certain images and film as degrading to women, however many feminists of this third wave have reconsidered their opposition towards it, this for some reaches as far.
Check out the latest popular very much talked about (but not very controversial) post entitled : How to tangibly work towards equality in everyday life.
About Abigail Adams
We would like to take some time to tell you about this wonderful and influential, yet commonly unknown woman. Born in 1744, we class her as someone very ahead of her time, both politically involved being the wife of the first Vice President of the United states, and the mother of John Quincy Adams, the Sixth president.
Abigail Adams was a dedicated lady, a writer with a strong patriotic sense, abolitionist and one of the earliest feminists of great importance. Some of the main things keeping her in memory is the collection of letters she wrote to her husband when in Philadelphia. John frequently sought the advice of Abigail, on a range of different matters, and the letters are filled with strong intellectual and political discussions on the government, many in which where the subject of equality. She was strongly against slavery, and often in matters she voiced her views on behalf of women of the time.
So a big thank you to Abigail Adams, for seeing and fighting this battle for equality so early on, and in such an inspirational and strong way, to make head way for the next generations.
Feminism is not about women
There's a common misconception that feminism is for the equal rights for women. And many say that this is now the case, and that feminism is dated jibber jabber and not needed anymore. However, it may be the word feminism which is loading this type of cause with a strictly gender based view. It's not true feminism is just a word or a title given to a subject, based on how it spawned initially. Feminism today is about equality, not just for women, but for everyone. And the issues women are facing, are no different from other unequal situations of prejudice, judgment and unethical normative behaviour. So, before one discards feminism as something for the working women in the 60s, the definition of the concept must be redefined within ones view. Of course each feminist is also an individual, and have their own individual interpretation of what it means and what it is, however at the bottom line there is equality, for everyone regardless of who, what, where etc.
Feminism and Choice
We are close to the 200 year mark since the start of a rising feminist movement. Some even say around in the late 1800's the word feminism cropped up in France and the Netherlands. Of course the aims of the movement have changed much though out history depending on when, where and what culture and what status those for it were in. But should you wish to put it all under one roof, and one concept, simply it's just a movement for women's rights. Although today we live in what often seems like an equal society here in the west, there are still many reasons to support the feminist movement that exist today.
Firstly we have to look at the rights and equal financial rights. Then we have to look at the opportunities available for women and men, and the bias that exists in many of our institutions and companies today. After this we need to look at the society, and the culture, the normative behaviour we grow up with, and question whether this is actually equal. Today many say that we live in a male dominated world, and they are right, often the women that we see in higher powered role are not so feminine, They act and live in a masculine way in order to get to these positions.
So when it comes to the equality between the genders, legally the rights are more and more fair. However the issues that we deal with today are many and they are of quite complex nature. Feminism is not to say that women should have the same rights as men, as long as they act as them. What we've seen with much of the commercial and political sectors is that the same chance to get education and build a career is presented for women, so as long as they live, act and dress like a man. And for many the feminist movement, is something that should be for everyone, this due to the fact that it's seen as a movement for individuality and the rights to be yourself and get acceptance from the workplace, institutions or society.
Conditioning, work, culture and a Locksmith
The social conditioning and the narratives that we grow up with in popular culture includes objectified women, and idolized men. Anorexic models and a culture which places focus only on exterior image and appearance. Even today, there are hard narratives of princesses, damsels in distress, who are waiting to be saved by their price etc. This is just peaking briefly at a very western culture. If you look further you see issues like young girls being married away or sold, forced prostitution, instances where women are punished for being raped etc. So in our current time the public eye wants to portray a society where gender does not matter to your opportunities, or your life, and that everyone lives by equal rights. But it's a fallacy, and the feminist movement is still a very relevant one, and in need of as much support as possible. Thanks to our June sponsor locksmiths Bristol. The gender gap is really apparent but one learns just to get on with life. The ability to work in intellectual spheres as well as manual labour jobs while understanding the importance of gender is crucial.

Discrimination in freedom for Girls
When looking at the toy's industry at the moment, it's nothing less than a decrease. It's all pink and purple clothed dolls in proportions which promote a very low self image in terms of exterior look. There are beauty shop toys, cleaning appliances in miniature plastic versions, vacuum cleaners, ironing boards, make up kits, kitchen appliances etc. The list is long, and the narrative presented to girls, at a young age is seemingly not that far from brain washing at times. Educationally driven toys is something created for the boys, mechanic Lego, science experimental boxes, toys which develop and require a high level of physical skills like skate boards etc. This type of social conditioning, which is happening on a wide scale must be taken seriously, taking away someone's opportunity to be a science geek girl, or seen from the other less common occurrence of a house husband. So before going out to buy that birthday gift for your daughter, keep her own opportunity of choice in mind. It may have much stronger long term effect than you can imagine.
What is feminism
People have different understanding and different interpretations of the word feminism. Of course the meaning is individual to the person in question. It could be described as something along the lines of equality of the sexes. Not only in as having the same opportunity and level of fairness in choice, but as in being able to do so being a woman. Not being a woman, pretending to be a man. Simply put, some say that feminism is the radical notion that women are people to. It may be easier and more useful to describe what is often associated with it, but very far from it.
So, feminism is not selfish fulfillment by career women and professionals looking to gain status in a company or an industry. The main objective is equality, for everyone. It's against the type of prejudice, judgement and discrimination which is held by being a woman. The boundaries around where feminism starts and where other equal rights subjects start is quite gray, and often issues with discrimination quite commonly also cross paths with discrimination against people based on class, race, gender, disability, age and so on. Feminism is not only for women, but for everyone as it's parallel to equality for each individual, as an individual.
Our Social Experiment
Not it's not easy to conduct a social experiment but that is what we have set out to do. The most important aspect will be the validity of the experiment and that is why we have enlisted the help of those people that we will believe to serve the best results. There are not many social experiments that are not contradicted for weak research methods and questionable tactics that may affect the results of that which is being studied. It is to this effect that we are ready to gauge the positive results and outweigh the those methods which seek to alter the fine distinction between quality and poor research. Not many researchers are open to this level of scrutiny and that is why when picking the ideal candidates. Many thanks also to April's sponsor locksmith Liverpool Mickey for website funding support. Anyway, we asked the question why so many were attracted to working in the locksmiths industry. Not only a research candidate of high caliber but also a man of integrity when looking for the right type of candidate for this type of project but then also begging the question why?
The only matter in hand that has not been addressed is that of valid results that do not sway the objective criteria that have been placed on the findings. To this effect it will be necessary to employ a higher number of inverse relationships that lock in the correct level of higher class 3 results. This should be monitored at every level to ensure that what has been created is a first class delivery of higher level research. This should be apparent to all observers and any organization inspecting the risk element of this type of project. But why does it all sound so academic. Well actually it isn't! The real answer is that it is the male dominated workplace that is the attraction in an effort to create a balance.
But what about the Greater Impact?
Low and behold for he who understands the greater impact of the workings of nature and the impact on the greater sphere is one the wiser. It is not only the intellectual points that make up our understanding when the greater picture is concerned. It is also the understanding of those aspects that affect us and our peers. It is this importance placed on our peers that gives us the freedom to express and explore the greater ideas. Thanks to May's sponsor plumber Manchester for this month's writing support contribution. Before her time as an intellectual contributor has provided the insight and wisdom to contribute to this type of project and enabled her to seek funding from the industry. It is hard to comment on the reality of certain situations without having a broad understanding of the wider ways in which the world operates and the way in which women attempt to create a balance in the construction workplace traditionally run by men.
For those who have not entered into this arena, it is hard to see why this wider view is desirable, but it becomes all to apparent once research has been conducted and results have been provided.

Imo x32 is welcome even if released in 2 years.
For the last 5-7 years apps don't use significantly more RAM. In fact win7 is more lightweight than vista, and C11 & C++11 make for a solid guarantee for native (non-interpreted, hence lower memory) solutions to stay common for a long time. Even today's AAA games are fine with 2GB (they care a lot more about GPU ram). So X32 is likely to be a good fit for like 15 years until/if a new hw paradigm comes about. I've never used any desktop 32 bit (or even 64 bit) app that would require over 4GB, not even close, those which did did so because of memory leaks and/or bad programmers.

I guess the performance advantage of ext3 vs ext4 in some benches are due to ext3 defaulting to writeback data mode in 2.6.30 while ext4 still defaults to the slower and more secure ordered data mode, so that's not exactly a fair comparison.
Phoronix: EXT4, Btrfs, NILFS2 Performance Benchmarks
The past few Linux kernel releases have brought a number of new file-systems to the Linux world, such as with EXT4 having been stabilized in the Linux 2.6.28 kernel, Btrfs being merged into Linux 2.6.29, and most recently the NILFS2 file-system premiering with the Linux 2.6.30 kernel. Other file-systems have been introduced too during the past few Linux kernel release cycles, but these three have been the most talked about and are often looked at as being the next-generation Linux file-systems. Being the benchmarking junkies that we are, we have set out to compare the file-system performance of EXT4, Btrfs, and NILFS2 under Ubuntu using the Linux 2.6.30 kernel. We also looked at how these file-systems compared to EXT3 and XFS.
I guess the performance advantage of ext3 vs ext4 in some benches are due to ext3 defaulting to writeback data mode in 2.6.30 while ext4 still defaults to the slower and more secure ordered data mode, so that's not exactly a fair comparison.
First of all, thanks for the great articles! Phoronix is great!
Btrfs developers were aware of lower performance from older benchmarks articles, as acknowledged here: http://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.p...e#Benchmarking
They delivered one improvement on v0.19:
"In general, v0.19 is a dramatic speed improvement over v0.18 in almost every workload."
... so the benchmark probably didn't consider the latest v0.19 yet perhaps.
when the database numbers are as far off as they are in this test it makes me suspect that the fsyncs are being ignored by some filesystems and not by others. none of these filesystems are so far apart in design (except for possibly nilfs) that a 20x-60x variation is reasonable.
What's the point of benchmarking btrfs just before a major format change?
Red capslock text and reiser4 propaganda... where have I seen that before?
Yay! It's the crazy Reiser fan!
I've missed their rantings.
Also: MY THOUGHTS ON TEH GREAT JFS AND EXT2 CONSPIRACIES
But seriously though, looking at that I have a few quesions:
1) Does this mean we should just stick with EXT3?? Surely not.
2) What about deleting large files (mythtv)? Is XFS still the daddy for your 3.5TiB XFS partition containing all my myth media and every file is >2GiB?

If an asteroid were headed for Earth, we'd all band together and figure out how to stop it, just like in the movies, right? And yet, when faced with major, data-supported, end-of-the-world problems in real life, too often we retreat into partisan shouting and stalemate. Jonathan Haidt shows us a few of the very real asteroids headed our way — some pet causes of the left wing, some of the right — and suggests how both wings could work together productively to benefit humanity as a whole.

Bisping has only EVER been finished by 1 man and that was Dan Henderson, whom is in your list of one of the best ever. It's more about style's as opposed to fact's.
Smart money, in my eyes is Bisping late T/KO (4 or 5) or Decision

Thanks For Giving tour
Tum Yeto Distribution's 'Thanks For Giving Tour' Tour started out in Vista, Calif. on Nov 25 and ended in Durham, N.C. on Dec 19. The 2002 Dodge Grand Caravan is on its last legs, but continues to surprise everyone when it makes it across the U.S. (which is about four times a year.) The odometer now reads 260,000, and Tum Yeto owner Tod Swank has promised to buy a brand new tour van once the old Dodge hits 300,000. - Mike Sinclair

To lather up with soap in the shower, only to turn off the water, exiting the tub covered in soap, then running out into the house and giving the nearest person a hug. Only then to put lathered soap on them, giving them a "Soapie Opie."
Man, I can't believe it. I was over at Frank's house and he came running out of the shower all naked and lathered up, then he gave me a Soapie Opie.

The Hull Detail
So I was near leaving this boat behind with the 212 never ending story , but I found new wind in the sails to get me going on the near complete project here. I set out doing some scribing on the hull top here and their and wound up going over all that was their, and found items on the plans that were not scribed in before.
Using the Greg Sharp plans, I found that a lot of little bit's were left off the hull from Dan, and I like a finer scribe line on my models. Most of the shapes were found in my Template collection, but others had to be made by the old fashion way of filing brass sheet to get my scribing template. There is a second coarse of action and that is Photo Etching your Templates, but I am not that tried and tested in the method.
So basically I tend to copy right off the plans the shapes needed to be engraved to the subject. In this case I still had room on the first Template I made by hand for the Sturgeon's Sail and having them all on one sheet will be good if I needed to redo any of them later. I made the pattern on the brass and then drilled out a few access holes, from here I used my Vertical file tool to do the main filing, then I tighten up the corners by hand file.
On the bottom I wanted recessed flood drains, I took a Q from Steve and Pete the way they enjoy doing recessed detail areas. Using regular auto body tape and laid my template over it, then cut out the shapes and placed them where the plans showed the flood vents to be. For the circles I used a punch for the tape cut and placed it on the hull. Priming over these later will build up a film so when the tape is removed it will leave a recessed pattern, and the results worked well! With enough primer build up (4 to 5 coats) the look was achieved with great results, and can be done even more efficiently with a vinyl printer set up that will cut the patterns from your drawings. I talked with Joel the other day and some good news for me is he had offered to send me a set of his Photo Etch work to use on the Sturgeon, at first I did not think that would be of any good to me cause of two different subs, but then it would be very nice to have his MBV etch part's for the model. My plan for that is to simply dig out the round vents you see on the model, and apply the etch parts in to the sub's hull, I will set the pieces so they are just a tad raised to the hulls surface skin. The mold process will pick the finest detail when done and their will be no need to include them as PE part's for the boat, I will however make up grills for the bottom floods. Also I have made the Cleats for the top of the hull and plan to dig out the upper hull spot's on the model and insert them. Later a modeler can fill in the fine engraved lines and set the cast cleat itself in they wish!
Still plan on adding a few other things in the way of detail to the hull but the look of the deck is getting closer now, when this is done I am off to molds for this boat.
Photos in order of Before to now.

Purchase Reason
I was at Shea Stadium for the Beatles first show. I remember exactly where I was when John was killed. When I saw this photo I burst into tears. I've been to Strawberry Fields and seen the mosaic in person. I don't know why, but this photo speaks volumes to me.

that's pretty good.
but a lot of people see that canonical is not red hat. we can't just expect other companies to be as awesome as red hat is with contributions.
and hey, it could be a lot worse. imagine if canonical was completely ungrateful and ordered around kernel or x server developers to fix things.
or worse yet, what if every bit of code canonical wrote was binary only and dynamically linked to the vanilla code that make up a distro. and if part of that code was written by microsoft through a strange deal.
hahaha. see how good canonical looks now compared to the above?

2004 Grand National Roadster Show - The Best Never Rest
Written by Johnny Hunkins on June 7, 2004 There's a lot more to the Grand National Roadster Show than street rods.Every year, a bunch of rich guys and their six-figure street rods get together for a little car show to sort out the pecking order on who owns America's Most Beautiful Roadster. That's the story most people associate with the Grand National Roadster Show, and if you want more details on that part of the GNRS, there are plenty of belly-button magazines and websites which will recount all the dreary details in snooze-o-vision, but that's not what we're here to do.
We're here to tell you there's another side to the Grand National Roadster Show--one that contains neither Grand Nationals (we don't know why, we think turbo Buicks totally rock) nor roadsters. Over the event's 55-year history (which used to be known as the Oakland Roadster Show) the GNRS has developed the solid reputation as being among the street rod hobby's most elite shows. For starters, all the cars are shown in doors--not on grass (that comes as a relief for both participants and spectators). And don't plan on just showing up with your ride and paying an entry fee for your car; there's a selection process that starts with an application, and--if you're lucky--ends with a highly-coveted invitation. Fortunately, the event's promoters have had the foresight to open up the GNRS to cars outside the traditional street rod milieu, and that puts the GNRS on PHR's radar screen in a big way. Simply put, you wouldn't believe the variety of cool cars at the GNRS.
This past January 23 - 25, we rolled into the beautiful Pomona Fairplex in Pomona, California, to check out the GNRS. If you haven't figured it out yet, there are no "dogs" at the GNRS--they're all top-shelf cars. We were tripping over ourselves to see all the cool stuff, from restored drag racers and musclecars to pro streeters and g-machines. Three huge exhibit buildings were filled with the west coast's hottest cars and we were hard-pressed to find favorites, in fact, there were way too many for us to photograph. If you thought the GNRS was only about '32 Fords and the America's Most Beautiful Roadster competition (AMBR for those in the know), you owe it to yourself to check it out yourself next year.
If you want more info on the Grand National Roadster Show or other west-coast events put on by its promoters, you can check out their website at www.hotrodshows.com. If your car has what it takes, you'll want to enter this prestigious event, and if you're into seeing a wide variety of great machines, we think you'll be pleasantly surprised as a spectator.

We'll be posting more details soon, but you can tune in to http://www.ustream.tv/channel/barlowgirl-live on Wednesday. See you there!
It feels like just yesterday that we packed in the van and drove to Nashville to make our first album. Time flies! It's been such a blessing to us to be able to make music, travel the world and meet YOU. Thank you! We thought it'd be fun to take a look back on the first 10 years of our career and show you what that journey has looked like and sounded like. The album is a collection of 15 of our most favorite songs including "Never Alone", "I Need You To Love Me", "Let Go", "Mirror" and a bunch of others. Oh, it's also chronological...the music and all of the pictures in the booklet. The album packaging is kind of like our family scrapbook as well...since most of the pictures came from our actual family scrapbooks. Even our first ever photoshoot and the cover of our first demo are in there. Yikes! But whatever, it's all part of the journey, right? We even had our awesome cousin Sarah put together a photo book for you guys with a ton of amazing pics from the road.
Click here to check out a review of one of our shows, written by our good friend Kevin Davis at New Release Tuesday. We enjoyed seeing you and Natalie. Thanks, Kevin!

The 48th annual LA Roadster's show was Father's Day weekend at the Fairplex in Pomona. HOT ROD staffers visited some of the festivities that helped kick off the show, including a celebration of Alex Xydias on his 90th birthday, while others stuck around to see what the Sunday show had to offer. We rolled in after a late breakfast so we missed a lot of the best deals at the swap meet, but there were still plenty of pre-war steel (and fiberglass) toogle. For more information on the LA Roadsters and upcoming shows, visit http://www.laroadsters.com.
