A corrupt cabal of martial arts masters, led by master hung of refuses to allow him to teach in peace until he proves himself in a series of fights against the local master, which ip does.
Editor's NoteA retired special agent forges an unlikely bond with his neglected young neighbor, and vows to bring the girl back home safely after she's kidnapped by violent criminals. When Tae-Shik hung up his guns to open a small pawn shop, he also shut himself off from the world. Tae-Shik prefers to live in solitude, yet he still takes a liking to his precocious neighbor So-mi, whose mother pay her little attention. When So-Mi's mother crosses a local gang of criminals who respond by kidnapping the desperate mother and daughter, Tae-Shik realizes that he may be their only hope of making it out of the situation alive. After entering into a tenuous agreement with the local mob, Tae-Shik becomes the target of an intense police manhunt and finds himself besieged on all sides. Now the closer Tae-Shik gets to So-Mi and her mother, the more his dark past finally begins coming into focus.
The Man From Nowhere (2010) - Blu-Ray DVD Review
By: Luigi Bastardo Blogcritics.org Reviews
Published on: 4/4/2011 2:52 PM
|Possessing some seriously similar attributes to several other international hits from yesteryear, The Man From Nowhere borrows heavily from Luc Besson's Leon: The Professional, Pierre Morel's Taken, and Tony Scott's Man On Fire, while embedding its own strictly-Korean elements. The story — which tells of a mysterious and mild-mannered pawn shop broker who goes on a solo suicide mission to rescue a little girl from the neighborhood when she and her mother are abducted by some ruthless gangsters — was South Korea's highest-grossing hit of 2010, and has found its way to American shores via distributor Well Go USA....read the full review

Customer Reviews of Man From Nowhere (Blu-Ray)
Random Acts of Kindness Make A 'Good' Film 'Great'4/13/2011
Random acts of kindness make a 'good action picture' into a 'great action picture' with THE MAN FROM NOWHERE South Korea's mega-popular THE MAN FROM NOWHERE was successful for very good reasons, so many that there's no way I could touch upon all of them in a single review. Suffice it to say that it's an action picture whose formula is broad enough to appeal to men (once the action starts, there's never a dull moment), women (there's a strong through-line about caring for society's lost children), male teens (who wouldn't want to be as coolly quiet as the film's lead), and female 'tweens' (I've been assured by ladies that star Bin Won is very 'easy on the eyes'). If that winning combination isn't enough, then add to the mix the social messages and perhaps a metaphor on "random acts of kindness" and it's no wonder that the film was a huge hit overseas. Bin Won stars as Tae-sik Cha, who, quite literally, is the film's "man from nowhere." As our story opens, he's seen doing his best to blend into the landscape, buying some sausage to eat in his small apartment. He's treated like anyone on the street who has his slightly disheveled appearance: mostly ignored but slightly suspect due to his unkempt guise. Arriving back home where he runs a pawnshop shop out of his apartment in a quiet, rundown tenement building (the place looks much like he does), he meets the young So-mi hiding in the darkness at the bottom of the stairs. We soon learn that they're begrudging friends (of sorts), with Cha not taking any responsibility for the young girl (whose mother has essentially abandoned her to a life on the streets) but feeling tied to her more as the only responsible adult in her life. But So-mi's mother is guilty of more than being a bad mother. In an attempt to make a big score selling drugs, she's stolen a small supply from the wrong people; and, when they show up looking for the stash, they're more than happy to take So-mi off the woman's hands because there's a big demand for black market body parts. Who would miss one more deserted child? The mob never counted on Tae-sik Cha. Truth be told, Cha is a former government assassin, living a life of self-imposed exile after seeing his wife killed by one of his former enemies. Now that he genuinely has nothing to lose, Cha realizes the only tether keeping him in this world is the young So-mi, so he makes it his personal mission to get her back alive no matter the cost. The story doesn't stop there, and the plot is developed on several layers. There are competing mobs vying for control of the city's drugs and prostitutes, as well as the supply of human body parts, and, of course, the police can't be far behind. What unfolds is an incredible tale of one man's spirit sinking to the depths of despair and rising to the challenge when he realizes that no one else – not the government, not the police, not anyone – is willing to do what's absolutely necessary to bring down the thugs who snatched So-mi away from her sad life. There's action a'plenty, and, in several daring twists of direction, not all of it takes place on scene. In fact, Cha's opening salvo against one of the heavies who shows up looking for the stolen drugs doesn't even appear on screen; cleverly, we're only shown a window shattering from outside, and when the camera is back on Cha's apartment, the heavy is out cold on his kitchen floor. Director Jeong-beom Lee clearly knows when to "play the action" and when to pull it back, providing the audience with sufficiently masterful hints as to what happened where we couldn't see. The film remains taut throughout, right up until what is, arguably, one of the most incredible knife fights you'll see on film EVER. I'm not talking samurai swords. I'm not talking fencing. I'm talking down-n-dirty knife fights. Watch closely because you won't forget this choreography any time soon. Still, what surprised me most about THE MAN FROM NOWHERE isn't so much its

Norwich report 'racist abuse' towards defender Bassong
Published on Dec 11, 2012 7:13 AM
LONDON (AFP) - Norwich City revealed on Monday that they have filed four allegations of racist abuse towards their defender Sebastien Bassong to police.
A Swansea City supporter was released on bail on Sunday after being arrested for allegedly making racist gestures during his club's 4-3 loss at home to Norwich in the Premier League on Saturday.
The 23-year-old fan reportedly gesticulated at Cameroon international Bassong as Norwich celebrated their fourth goal.
Norwich say that the three other allegations concern racist messages sent to Bassong on Twitter following the match against Swansea and the 1-1 draw at Everton last month.

Richardson attends birth of child
BEREA, Ohio (AP)
Browns rookie running back Trent Richardson missed practice Friday to be with his girlfriend during the birth of his third child.
ACTION SATISFACTIONAnother week of NFL action kicked butt and we have all the hard hits. Check out the best images.
Richardson was not at the team's facility while the team prepared for this week's game against the Super Bowl-champion New York Giants. Browns coach Pat Shurmur said Richardson will travel with the team and play in Sunday's game.
The Browns were forced to practice inside because of rain.
With Richardson out, running backs Montario Hardesty and Chris Ogbonnaya took snaps with Cleveland's starting offense.
Richardson, who missed the entire preseason after undergoing knee surgery, has rushed for 222 yards and scored four touchdowns for the Browns (0-4), the AFC's only winless team. The No. 3 overall pick in this year's NFL draft, Richardson leads the Browns with 15 receptions for 122 yards.

RoadKill drops players into instantaneous battle with 30 core missions and numerous side missions. The missions place the player into the three cities of Hell County — Lava Falls, Blister Canyon and Paradise City. RoadKill's dynamic reputation system determines how the world reacts to the way players perform missions, kill and maim citizens, destroy enemy vehicles and build alliances with the gangs of Hell County. In the game, players collect salvaged parts — which upgrade the 30 vehicles with items such nitrous thrust and armor plating — to unlock secret features and help explore the world in a search for hidden blueprints. In addition, players drive to survive with a radio system that provides alerts about bounties, mission tips and music while they run down, impale, shoot and splatter both innocent and armed civilians

To be honest, Roadkill is trapped into one big cliché. Every time you shut down your PS2 you'll have the feeling you've just been playing a bad remix of GTA or Twisted Metal Black.

Canepa: Weddle's All-Pro season explains big contract
"I'm forever indebted to them. They're standup guys and they put themselves out there for me. They signed me twice, and I couldn't live with myself if I let them down. Not a day goes by that I'm not going to be out there playing my butt off."
Weddle now does what a free safety is supposed to do, be around the ball and, when the opportunity is there, picks it off. He didn't have a lot of great play around him this past season, the lack of a consistent pass rush not helping. But it doesn't make him wish he'd gone to another club.
"It was very important to go through the free agent process," he says. "With other teams showing interest in me, it showed me I'm doing well, I'm all right. It gave me a vote of confidence. I'm a defensive guy and it's a written rule that offensive guys get more publicity, but last year I was just as good as this year, maybe better overall. I just didn't have the numbers to back it up.
"I've always been a guy who's made the plays. Not having it come to fruition early in my career was hard to deal with, but it made me work harder. I still have a lot of room to grow and get better. But I know how good I am and how good I can be. In the end, I'll prove to everybody I'm right."
Weddle is just fine with Spanos' decision to bring back Smith and head coach Turner. He puts the Chargers' disappointing season on himself and his teammates, not the coaching staff.
"Honestly, it's good for the team that we have the continuity and stability," he says. "Coaches coach and players play. There's only so much a coach can do. The frustrating part was not playing together as a defense, not playing smart. The coaches go over things constantly and then we go out and don't execute. Whose fault is it? When we're not smart, we're a below-average defense.
"We're behind Norv. There's a great misconception. People don't know what they're talking about, how hard he works. He believes in us. We started our first year together and the fans wanted him out then and they didn't want me here either.
"Everyone's frustrated. It's not fun. Bottom line is, it's on the players. Either get better or get some guys in here who can get it done."
Bottom line.

With just a week left for the 2014 FIFA World Cup to kick-off in Brazil, the latest FIFA/Coca Cola rankings are out.
The World and European champions, Spain, have retained the 1st spot and Germany have retained the 2nd rank in the FIFA/Coca Cola rankings. World Cup hosts, Brazil, have moved one rank ahead to the 3rd rank by pushing Portugal to 4th rank. Argentina have moved up by two ranks, to 5th from previous 7th. Similarly, Switzerland have also moved up by two ranks, from 8th to 6th. South American teams Uruguay and Colombia have fallen down on the latest rankings.
Uruguay have fallen down to 7th from their previous 6th, where as Colombia are down to 8th from 5th. Italy's position in the latest rankings is unchanged. England have moved up to 10th rank from their previous 11th. England have had a fluctuating rankings since Hodgson's appointment in May 2012. England were ranked seventh in the world, Roy Hodgson took over as the head coach. They have been as high as third and as low as 17th in the 25 months since he took charge. Belgium, who are touted to be the 'dark horses' at the 2014 FIFA World Cup, have moved up to the 11th from 12th. The 2004 UEFA Euro champions Greece are down to 12th from 10th.
Croatia, who play Brazil in their opening World Cup match, have moved up to 18th, previously on 20th. The 1998 World Cup champions, France, are down to 17th by one rank. Bosnia and Herzegovina, who will be playing their first ever World Cup, have moved up by four ranks to 21st. Algeria is now ranked highest in Africa, after moving up three ranks to 22nd rank. Côte d'Ivoire are two ranks down to 23rd and second amongst African countries. Ghana positioned 37th, is way behind the other opponents of their Group G. Egypt, who will not be a part of World Cup, have gone down twelve ranks to 36th. They have the biggest drop in terms of points (down by 83 points).
Iran heads Asian confederation teams by moving up to 43rd. The United States of America at 13th rank lead the CONCACAF nations. Australia is the lowest-ranked team at the World Cup, at 62nd rank. Scotland have moved up by five ranks to 27th, Wales have risen six places to 41st and the Republic of Ireland have dropped to 70th. Northern Ireland down are to 90th rank, which is their worst ever position. Northern Ireland are ranked behind the likes of El Salvador, Albania, Libya and Jordan and just one rank ahead of Trinidad and Tobago. Palestine have made the biggest move in terms of ranks and points. With the current rank of 94th, Palestine have moved up in the FIFA rankings by 71 ranks (up by 270 points).
With the latest FIFA/Coca Cola rankings, it is evident that Group D is the 'Group of Death'. It is the only group with three teams in the top ten according to latest FIFA rankings. This is how Group D stands with the new rankings: Group D - Costa Rica (28), England (10), Italy (9), Uruguay (7). It is statistically the toughest group. Group H is the only group with no team placed in the top ten: Group H - Algeria (22), Belgium (11), Russia (19), South Korea (57).
These are the top 30 teams, according to the latest FIFA/Coca Cola rankings for June:

Brees wants to bury bounty probe, help New Orleans
Thursday - 1/31/2013, 1:37pm EST
By BRETT MARTEL
AP Sports Writer
NEW ORLEANS (AP) - Drew Brees wore gray sneakers to his first full day of Super Bowl-related appearances _ a wise move for an ambassador of a city who had to walk briskly from end to end of a sprawling convention center to make all of his scheduled stops.
Not only was the Saints' star quarterback a man on the move, but also ready to move on from the bitterness of the bounty scandal, which may have undermined his team's chances of playing for a title on its home field.
"We're professionals and we've moved past that in the sense that there's nothing that can be done other than, `Let's move on and let's find a way to be better next year in spite of it,'" Brees said. "It would be easy to sit here and be angry, but it is what it is."
Coming off a 13-3 campaign in 2011 and a narrow loss to San Francisco in that season's playoffs, the Saints went into the offseason figuring they would be contenders again this season.
Then came the NFL's probe of the Saints' cash-for-hits program and numerous sanctions, the most severe of which was the full-season suspension of coach Sean Payton. New Orleans went 7-9 and missed the playoffs for the first time since 2008, and now the team practicing at the Saints' suburban training center is the NFC champion 49ers.
Throughout the community, displeasure with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell's handling of the matter has been on display for months, from T-shirts reading "Free Payton" (he is now reinstated) to signs in bars and eateries showing Goodell's photo and reading: "Do not serve this man."
During the season, Brees offered his own criticism of what he thought was a faulty investigation and overly heavy-handed disciplinary process. But when the topic came up Wednesday, Brees said it was time to "put this thing to bed."
"We've said what needed to be said," Brees said. "Sean's back, all the pieces are in place, and now it's time for us to put ourselves in a position to make a run."
Brees has been one of New Orleans' most prominent public faces and leading promoters since he arrived in the Big Easy in 2006, when much of the area was still in a state of devastation from Hurricane Katrina's August 2005 landfall. Now his team is the official host of the Super Bowl, and Brees is once again stepping up to highlight his adopted hometown's resurgence as it hosts the Super Bowl for the first time since 2002 _ also the first time since Katrina.
He also sought to stamp out the notion that there is some kind of undercurrent of tension between his club, its fans and all of the high-ranking NFL executives in town for the league's biggest single event.
"I know the city is going to be a great host regardless," Brees said. "The city wants to put their best foot forward, they want everybody to have a great experience. I don't like the fact that we've got the NFC team practicing in our facility, but we're going to be gracious hosts and hope that it pays us back in the future."
Brees' stops Wednesday included a talk with area high school kids about the importance of managing one's money. He even revealed that he graduated Purdue with an unpaid $2,000 mobile phone bill, and later regretted it when it damaged his credit score and pushed up the interest rate he had to pay on the first house he bought in San Diego, shortly after being drafted by the Chargers in 2001.
Later, he hosted a news conference in which his foundation donated $1 million to businesses teaming up with charities in the metro area. He also made several radio appearances and lent his support to an event hosted by former Saints special teams standout Steve Gleason, who has the debilitating and incurable neuro-muscular disease ALS.
As an organization, the Saints' approach has mirrored that of their quarterback. Owner Tom Benson spoke at an NFL event promoting the importance of children doing more physical activity on Wednesday. He has invited Goodell to the team party in New Orleans' City Park on Thursday night, and he will attend Goodell's main media event Friday and has even invited the commissioner to watch the game from his suite in the Superdome.
"We're making this the best Super Bowl ever and what that means is we're going to get another Super Bowl to come back in a few years," said Benson with a nod to the city's intent to bid on the 2018 Super Bowl. "We've rolled out the red carpet for everybody."

Is there any way they could make Ship varients sellable on the exchange? could they make all of the Ships tier 3 and below White - Tier 4 and Tier 5 Ships Blue? Then make Endgame Ships that are Purple and separate from the tiers all to gether. Maybe even include the Hull charachteristics of Lower level ships yet pack a very big punch. That way it would diversify the number of times you feel like your looking in a mirror.
It would make Pvp and PvE more fun when grouping with a higher varieity of ships.
Then they could add new ships that dont really fit into the tiers anymore. Maybe you could recieve a Rare Ship as a reward for a hard missions or something, but only make very few of these ships availible. But it would be attainable to everyone. It would give people something to strive for in PvE at REAR5 level.
The goal would be to find a very unique ship that few other people will have.

Hi guys,
I've been around for a while now, and ever since I joined AVADA was the first WP theme in the featured, then Udesign. I was wondering how they are rendered, because Udesign has more of everything compared to Avada (sales, reviews, stars, feedbacks…everything). They seem to be separated by sales, but the sales written there with small characters are not the real amount of sales the theme had, so what's the deal?
Apart from this, I was also thinking how can one theme/author surpass these in the list. We've seen some very good work (at least from my pct of view) reaching the featured list up to the middle or a bit higher, but since I've joined the top 3 have remained stable.
They're popular files not featured. And they're ordered by the number of sales and not by anything else.
Those "small characters" are weekly sales. That means that if if you read, for example 245 under Avada, it means it was bought 245 times this week.
Aaah, makes total sense! thanks guys, I was really wondering what's up with that, but it makes total sense. Cheers

Kim Kardashian may have only given birth to little North West two weeks ago, but she's already panicking about her weight loss diet and has apparently been crying about her post baby body.
Kim, 32, is said to be all signed up to celebrity trainer, Tracy Anderson's diet and fitness regime but is finding her weight gain overwhelming.
A source told Closer: "After the birth she was crying at how big her stomach still looked. Her family and friends reassured her it was normal, but she said she looked saggy and couldn't face the pressure of everyone expecting her to snap back into shape quickly like other celebrities."
[Kim Kardashian pictured in bikini just days before giving birth]
[Kim Kardashian almost died in labour]
The source continued: "Kim's been obsessing over her old pictures for weeks now as inspiration. She hated the way her body changed, and, for the last three months, would barely look in the mirror from the neck down."
What's more, Kim is apparently so down about her body that she doesn't want to undress in front of boyfriend Kanye West, 36, and is even saying she will never get pregnant again.
Body issues aside, Kim's mum Kris Jenner has confirmed that her baby's name is indeed North West.
[Kim Kardashian shares fake baby photos with friends to test loyalty]
The name caused outrage last week with commenters branding the name 'novelty' and 'cruel'.
However, Kris has explained that she likes the name because of its secret meaning.
She said: "I love the name North. I'm pro North, absolutely. The way [Kim] explained it to me was that North means highest power, and she says that North is their highest point together and I thought that was really sweet."
Kris continued: "It's North West, but you don't walk around calling somebody, "Hi North West",' she said. It's just North."
Yeah, but it is North West.

Condom broke
me and my girlfriend had sex yesterday, the condom broke but I noticed and stopped ( I didn't cum) ... what are the chances of her getting... Show More
Most Helpful Opinion
Of course there's a chance but not as much as if the condom had broke while you were cumming. Also, it'd have to be the right time of the month for her taking into consideration that sperm can live and stay present in her for several+ days afterwards. For you right now, I'd say it's a wait and see and hope that she didn't get pregnant. Your chance are very good that she didn't, but definitely not 100%.
What Girls Said 3
if the condom broke and it was pre cum. its slim, but you should really not have sex, I see you are under 18.
What is so bad about him being under 18? I was 16 when I lost my virginity, and I was a junior in high school. I could understand if he is like way younger, but don't assume, it's rude and it's not what he asked.
I agree with gossexyangel, its not your position to judge him. In my country the legal age for sex is 16, and even if it wasn't like that where he's from, its still rude of you.
What Guys Said 3
First, condoms break from mishandling. Check your storage, your lube (no petroleum-based products, right? you're using plenty, right?), how you handle the packaging, everything that happens to it from the store to the bedroom. They're only a few microns thick. You can't be rough or careless with them.
Second, figure out emergency contraception, for times like this.
Finally, the chance she's pregnant is small, but it exists. If you haven't had the "what if you get pregnant" talk, then now, right now.
There is usually a little spermicide in the lubrication that comes in the condom, so it should be ok. But as always, if your girlfriend can't get a hold of another form of backup like the morning after pill (or whatever its called these days) then she should wait about two weeks then have a pregnancy test just to be sure.
But I'm 90% sure she shouldn't conceive, so don't stress 'too' much.
Have an opinion?

PLAINS TWP. — When the five-floor Critical Care Building opened at Geisinger Wyoming Valley in 2008, officials knew the fifth floor eventually would be needed. But for what was unclear, until this week.
Doctors, administrators and staffers took part in a ribbon-cutting ceremony Wednesday to mark the official unveiling of the 24-bed, 24,000-square-foot, $9.5 million Progressive Care Unit. The first patients, who typically don't rise to the level of requiring Intensive Care Unit attention, will be housed there starting Monday.
The addition will replace the current 13-bed Progressive Care Unit housed in another part of the hospital that will be used for other needs, said John Buckley, the chief administrative officer for Geisinger Northeast. And he said that even as the latest expansion project is complete, others are being planned.
"We'll be looking at expanding the operating room, expanding the emergency room," Buckley said. But this week, the attention was bring paid to the fifth-floor project.
Each room includes cameras and monitors for two-way communication with doctors, electronic monitoring of patients' vitals, a large private bathroom with shower, a sleeper sofa for family members who wish to stay and a flat-screen television. Two rooms are outfitted to care for infectious isolation patients. And two rooms are fitted with bariatric lifts to assist staff members with lifting severely obese patients, which Buckley said is a situation arising more often.
"In Northeast Pennsylvania, we recognize patients are not as healthy as they should be," Buckley said, adding that this feature benefits the patients and the staff members.
The nearly doubling of space for the unit also will mean nearly doubling the number of people employed to staff the floor. Plans call for the hiring of 82 people in the next year and an additional 44 by 2017. This includes nurses, aides, physical therapists and respiratory therapists.
Dr. Steven Pierdon, the executive vice president and chief medical officer for Geisinger Northeast, lauded the expansion and said it's "further evidence of Geisinger's commitment to providing Luzerne County residents high-level, high-quality care close to home."
But Buckley noted that since the facility's emergency room became a level-one trauma center in 2008, the number of patients seen in it each year has doubled, and about 25 percent of those seeking treatment are residents of another county.

Remember Me
on Tuesday, 20 November 2012. Hits 606
The Dispatch
KC Playroom, a swingers club that stopped holding its private parties in a Shawnee industrial building last month, apparently has returned under "new ownership." And Mayor Jeff Meyers, for one, said the news "disgusts me."
"We have some great friends who are taking over the KC Playroom so you all can still have a place to party," the club recently reported on an Internet site it has used to promote previous parties.
The site also announced that a "Fishnet and Heels" party would be held last Saturday night at the club, which it described as being "in the Johnson County area, very close to I-35 and I-435 with hotels two miles from the club."
The exact location was not provided. But on Saturday night, cars were parked outside the building at 7007 Martindale Road, where previous KC Playroom parties were hosted, and an outdoor smoking area similar to those set up for the previous gatherings was visible.
"I thought that was over with," Meyers said after learning KC Playroom might be resuming parties at the site, which is within a couple of blocks of a Montessori preschool and several residences.
Meyers added that he had been informed the activities that took place at previous KC Playroom parties went "way beyond dancing."
"I just don't know how that could be considered legal myself," Meyers said. "That's why there's been an awful lot of people looking at it."
The club, referred to as a "sex club" in an email City Manager Carol Gonzales sent to members of the Shawnee City Council in July, has been under investigation by the city for more than a year.
Gonzales said in the July email that following "investigative and legal research," the city concluded "it is a private use of a privately owned building, therefore subject to building and fire codes, but not other regulations applicable to businesses."
Three months later, a resident using the name "Bob Smith" emailed city officials to complain that "nothing has been done to have this business licensed and permitted."
"Mr. Smith, actually quite a bit has been done," Gonzales responded in an Oct. 24 email. "Other agencies have already been brought in and are also looking into issues that fall within their purview."
Gonzales added in the email that city officials had been told KC Playroom would close at the end of the year.
Following subsequent media reports about the club by The Dispatch and KCTV5 News, the area business owner who was operating KC Playroom said he would close it immediately. In addition, the Martindale Road space was listed for lease on Craigslist, seeming to indicate that the club would no longer be an issue in Shawnee.
Now that it appears to be back, Ward 4 Councilman Mickey Sandifer said, "I do not like it at all. And I will check into this." ...

San Francisco may be getting ready to shed its image as a city where anything goes, including clothing.
City lawmakers are scheduled to vote Tuesday on an ordinance that would prohibit nudity in most public places, a blanket ban that represents an escalation of a two-year tiff between a devoted group of men who strut their stuff through the city's famously gay Castro District and the supervisor who represents the area.
Supervisor Scott Wiener's proposal would make it illegal for a person over the age of 5 to "expose his or her genitals, perineum or anal region on any public street, sidewalk, street median, parklet or plaza" or while using public transit.
A first offense would carry a maximum penalty of a $100 fine, but prosecutors would have authority to charge a third violation as a misdemeanor punishable by up to a $500 fine and a year in jail. Exemptions would be made for participants at permitted street fairs and parades, such as the city's annual gay pride event and the Folsom Street Fair, which celebrates sadomasochism and other sexual subcultures.
Wiener said he resisted introducing the ordinance, but felt compelled to act after constituents complained about the naked men who gather in a small Castro plaza most days and sometimes walk the streets au naturel. He persuaded his colleagues last year to pass a law requiring a cloth to be placed between public seating and bare rears, yet the complaints have continued.
"I don't think having some guys taking their clothes off and hanging out seven days a week at Castro and Market Street is really what San Francisco is about. I think it's a caricature of what San Francisco is about," Wiener said.
The proposed ban predictably has produced outrage, as well as a lawsuit. Last week, about two dozen people disrobed in front of City Hall and marched around the block to the amusement of gawking tourists and high school students on a field trip. ...

"Sometimes my friends and I stop each other mid-sentence and say, 'Oh my god, you guys. We go to Harvard. This is so weird,'" Maria, a junior, said recently over Skype chat.
Harvard had been Maria's dream school for years. (She requested a pseudonym, but not because she's not proud of her alma mater.) A valedictorian of her New England public high school, she got in on the basis of a 4.0 GPA and started working toward an English major. Last year, she began looking around for some extracurricular activities to enrich her college experience. There were more than 400 student groups to choose from. Maria chose a group called Harvard College Munch. Her goal was to meet new people, to explore something new, maybe to release some of the pressure that comes with trying to compete in an intimidating hothouse of rampant overachievement.
Maria is petite, with honey-blonde hair and brown eyes. They widened as she ticked off a few of the areas she hoped to explore in her free time: "Bondage, handcuffs, ice play…"
Maria is, she said, less a masochist than a submissive. "So a lot of taking orders and stuff like that," she explained. "I'm really into the whole exhibitionist thing, semi-public places, mirrors…" In addition to educational meetings on campus, Munch has hosted private events where members can get together and "play." Since joining, Maria's had a chance to explore some of her fantasies. "I've been hit with a riding crop, a belt, a paddle, canes, a flogger … floggers are my favorite."
The popularity of 50 Shades of Grey has accelerated a mainstreaming of the BDSM subculture already underway—the initials stand for bondage, discipline, sadism and masochism—and the trend has been especially pronounced in our more elite institutions of higher learning. Columbia has a BDSM group. So do Tufts, MIT, Yale and the University of Chicago. Brown, UPenn and Cornell have hosted BDSM educators for on-campus seminars entitled "The Freedom of Kink" and "Kink for All." It looks like conservatives who have long viewed the Ivy League a bastion of depravity may have a point after all.
But some young members of such groups are finding the subculture is offering them more of an education than they expected, confronting them with serious issues involving consent, disclosure, anonymity, sexual violence, guilt and innocence, crime and punishment.
While the scene's mantra—"safe, sane and consensual"—is heard so often it might as well be translated into needlepoint, violations of these maxims are common. In the last year, hundreds of people have come forward to describe the abuse they've suffered within the scene. The victims are mostly women, and like 50 Shades'fictional 22-year-old Anastasia Steele, many are also young, submissive and uncertain about their boundaries.
In December, and Victoria (not her real name), a 20-year-old English major at an Ivy League school, had decided to skip reading period, apply more makeup than usual and venture on her own to a kinky meet-upshe had read about on FetLife, a social networking service for fetishists. Victoria didn't have any experience with submissive sex, but she had been drawn to it for years; she sometimes had fantasies about dungeons or about being restrained or embarrassed, and she recalled family trips to Medieval Times having given her an unusual erotic charge.
The meeting was fun. Victoria had interesting conversations about neurobiology and religion and, of course, about kinky sex. It was near the end of the evening when a man walked in whom she recognized; he had tried to form an S&M club on her campus a few years before. Eric had a doughy, impish face and slicked-back hair, and he wore his cell phone in a carrier on his hip. ...

There are a lot of things to find disturbing about GQ's Rihanna profile, featured in its December "Men of the Year Issue"—like how naked she is or how she appears to have used the interview to stage another meeting with Chris Brown, further evidence that the two are back together and juicing the controversy of their reunion three years after Brown assaulted her.
But I admit I'm irritated about something else, too. In the words of writer Jay Bulger:
I ask what turns her on, because I know she'll answer. "I like to feel like a woman," she says. "I have to be in control in every other aspect of my life, so I feel like in a relationship, like I wanted to be able to take a step back and have somebody else take the lead." Do you ever switch things up? I ask. "I could absolutely be dominant," she answers. "But, in general, I'd rather ... How do I say this in like a ... non-X-rated version?" Right. Lastly, any boundaries I should know about? "Love makes you go places you probably wouldn't ever go, had it not been for love. But I think everybody still has their limits."
In the piece, this is the end of a clearly delineated section. And the next describes the night out that ends with Rihanna and Brown's rendezvous at a club. The connection is meant to be clear: Rihanna's preference for submission is the reason she's going back to Brown, going "places you probably wouldn't ever go, had it not been for love."
But submission doesn't have to be about seeking out abuse, be it physical or emotional. Dominance and submission are tools partners can use to negotiate what they want out of a sexual experience or a relationship. That power dynamic still allows for all involved to be safe. Similarly, women who return to partners who abused them aren't necessarily involved in dominant and submissive sexual relationships. ...

MY favorite CASE: A UK sadomasochism case allows us to consider when the state should be allowed to criminalise actions between consenting adults
What is your favorite case?
Many years before the publication of EL James's 50 Shades of Grey, sadomasochism was slap-bang before the English courts. The case of R v Brown Ors whipped up controversy and undoubtedly left its mark on the issue of consent and non-fatal offences.
In the late 1980s, a group of more than 40 men decided to video themselves inflicting sadomasochistic tortures on each other on numerous occasions at a variety of different locations.
The videos spanned a 10-year period and showed the men engaging in various acts, including beatings and the maltreatment of their genitalia with a selection of instruments such as fish hooks, hot wax, nettles and cat-o-nine tails.
All acts were carried out in private, consensually and for no other purpose than achieving sexual pleasure and gratification.
The videos were copied and distributed among members of the group. Unfortunately for the men, the police came into the possession of these videos.
Some members of the group were charged with unlawful and malicious wounding and assault occasioning actual bodily harm on each other contrary to Offences Against The Person Act.
The trial judge ruled that the accused men could not rely on the defence of consent and the men were convicted in 1990 and sentenced to terms of imprisonment. An appeal against the conviction to the Court of Appeal failed, so the men appealed to the House of Lords.
The question before the House of Lords was, "Where A wounds or assaults B occasioning him actual bodily harm in the course of a sadomasochistic encounter, does the prosecution have to prove lack of consent on the part of B before they can establish A's guilt under section 20 or section 47 of the Offences against the Person Act 1861?"
The appeal was dismissed by a bare majority of the House of Lords.
Lord Jauncey of Tullichettle, in the majority, held that "in considering the public interest, it would be wrong to look only at the activities of the appellants alone, there being no suggestion that they and their associates are the only practitioners of homosexual sadomasochism in England and Wales".
Lord Jauncey seemed concerned that others who practised these "rather curious activities" may not be as "controlled or responsible as the appellants are claiming to be", which could result in wounds becoming septic, the spread of Aids or the "proselytisation and corruption" of young men. ...

24 Hours Vancouver
The lawyer who represented families in the Missing Women Commission of Inquiry has published another blog post about RCMP Cpl. Jim Brown after the latter filed suit against him, which claims his online posts were "false and defamatory."
Lawyer Cameron Ward's post responded to a civil suit filed against him and three others last week that claims several posts on cameronward.com could suggest Brown is "closely and criminally associated with Robert Pickton," among other serious allegations.
Brown has been headlining media coverage since summer, when many pictures depicting the Mountie in bondage scenes with women were published and resulted in the RCMP initiating a code of conduct investigation. He's seeking costs for damages and to restrain the defendants from publishing further material about him.
Ward, meanwhile, has been adamant that Brown should have testified at the Missing Women's Inquiry and has called for an inquiry reopening to question Brown's links to a Pickton informant.
"If he had been called as a witness, Cpl. Brown could have explained whether his off-duty interest in 'bondage, discipline, sadism, masochism, fetish and kink' had anything to do with the Mountie's foot-dragging and inaction," he wrote on his Monday post.
"Too many lingering questions remain unanswered." ...

Rumor had it that Fifty Shades of Grey would generate a brand new baby boom that would surpass even the one created by World War II. While that remains to be seen, E.L. James' "mommie porn" novels have spawned a bizarre new fashion line--for babies. No, that's not a misprint. A new line of 50 Shades of Grey-inspired baby clothes has just hit the Internet. And probably a few select retail stores as well. However, before prudes and haters faint dead away after conjuring nightmarish visions of infants clad in black leather jammies, stilletto booties, and bondage harnesses with tiny detachable handcuffs, the novels' BDSM theme is manifested on the clothing only in the form of words. The outfits themselves are quite normal--tops, bibs, bonnets, jammies--all emblazoned with funny "Fifty Shades-inspired taglines."
"I'm a product of 50 Shades of Grey," reads a cute pink onesie, while another proudly states:
"I'm the result of my Mommy reading Fifty Shades of Grey."
An identical white onesie conveys the same message a trifle more explicitly. "9 months ago," it reads, "my mommy read Fifty Shades of Gray."
Still another explicit message on a tiny sweatshirt top proclaims: "My mommy pretends Christian Grey is My Daddy."
Yikes. Does that mean Daddy pretends Mommy is Anastasia Steele?
Other catchy Fifty Shades-related phrases include a "Laters, Baby" onesie so called after Christian's signature phrase; a bright yellow bib stating "I'm 'LiL Blip' Thank you 50 Shades of Grey", and a "Generation Grey" tee-shirt that comes with a bizarre accessory--a tiny checkered/plaid tie. The little tie is a free gift. Presumably it's also a clip on. ...

The Washington Examiner
Tuesday's election results showed that 52 percent of Maryland voters bought the "fairness" argument those proponents of the state's same-sex marriage law used.
That was the percentage who voted for Question 6, the referendum that allowed the same-sex marriage law the Maryland legislature passed earlier this year to stand. Opponents of the law managed to get enough signatures on a petition to take the matter to referendum, but during the campaign it was hard to find a pro-Question 6 ad that didn't have the "f" word -- "fairness" -- in it.
Now it becomes my sad duty to inform those Marylanders who voted for Question 6 that this wasn't about "fairness" at all, but about overhauling the institution of marriage -- and society -- in such a radical way that we might not recognize either in the future.
The overhaul started long before Question 6 got on the ballot, and long before the Maryland legislature passed the law legalizing same-sex marriage earlier this year. The catchphrase of Question 6 supporters -- "marriage equality" -- might have fooled many into thinking that the law merely allows gay and lesbian couples to marry. But it does far more.
As I've written before, there is no longer a gay and lesbian rights movement. There is now what is called the lesbian-gay-bisexual-transgender -- LGBT -- movement, and it's expanding.
The May 18 edition of the Huffington Post contained an article with this title, one that shows where the institution of marriage will soon be headed: "Should Groups Like Asexuals and the Polyamorous Be Included Under The Queer Umbrella?"
For the uninitiated, "polyamorous" people are defined as "those interested in relationships of one type or another with more than one partner." In any true, genuine sense, "marriage equality" would have to accommodate the polyamorous. On the Showtime television network, there is indeed a show titled "Polyamory: Married & Dating." There is at least one website dedicated to New York City's gay-lesbian-bisexual-transgender-polyamorist community. ...

Caligula. Has it ever been said if Joffrey is based on him in some way? Either way Jack Gleeson looks a lot like that statue.

The character of Joffrey is certainly very Caligula like.
I don't know much about him only he was considered a bit nuts which yes would be a good description of Joffrey.

sources focus upon his cruelty, extravagance, and sexual perversity, presenting him as an insane tyrant

@Tonka No he was sent for the Hounds brother The Mountain who had been raiding the Riverlands.
Who's playing him this season? [if he is even in it?] Conan Stevens or Ian Whyte again?
Edited by Baihu1983 at 18:41:49 02-05-2013
@Baihu1983 oh in that case it's perfectly fine that he ends up with a bunch of cultists on the middle of good knows where.
If you can read this you really need to fiddle with your forum settings.
In the discussion around the fire they mentioned that The Mountain had killed him, I believe they said it was him that took Beric's eye too. So it's not like he didn't *try* but yeah he's gone a bit off-task.

@Mr-Brett He said it was the Lannisters who couldn't decide if they should hang him or stick a dagger in his eye so they did both.
Ah ok so maybe The Mountain, maybe not. Either way he was mentioned but perhaps not directly.

No the Mountain has killed him once.
Killed him with a lance through the chest and the 2nd time he was killed by a Clegane was the Hound.
It was The Mountain who stabbed him in the eye in the you know what. So in the you know what he has killed him twice but in the show only once.

It is indeed a very valid and well thought out point.

Yep can't really argue with it.
Just got round to seeing it - Stannis' daughter was Matilda when we went to see it a couple of years ago. Good shit!

Slightly book wankerish question, but have any of Westoros/Essos gods other than the Red God been shown to actually exist/have power? Obviously Thoros is reviving Beric, and Melisandre making shadow babies, but what about the Seven/Old Gods?

Not that I remember. But then they've not done anything in the book so far (I'm up to Eddard being arrested at knife point by the scheming Baelish.)
The tree's/godswoods are mentioned a lot, but other than that...

I think Tyrion asked about the whereabouts of the god of tits and wine at some point

@DUFFKING This is probably a better question for the other thread.

Rescue a Border Collie Pyrenees
Border Collie Pyrenees
Border Collie / Great Pyrenees Hybrid Dogs
The Border Collie Pyrenees is not a purebred dog. It is a cross between theBorder Collie and the Great Pyrenees. The best way to determine the temperament of a mixed breed is to look up all breeds in the cross and know you can get any combination of any of the characteristics found in either breed. Not all of these designer hybrid dogs being bred are 50% purebred to 50% purebred. It is very common for breeders to breed multi-generation crosses.
Recognized Names:
"This is Arctic. His mom is a purebred Great Pyrenees and his father is a purebred Border Collie. He is the most gentle loving affectionate dog. He sheds a TON, though :-)"
Barley the Border Collie / Great Pyrenees mix at 1 year old—"Barley and Oliver are brothers. They are a Border Collie and Great Pyrenees mix. Barley is the golden dog and has the intelligence of a Border Collie, but the affection of a Pyr."
Oliver the Border Collie / Great Pyrenees mix at 1 year old—"Oliver, is a big, happy, doofus of a dog who hasn't shown us as much intelligence as his brother, but is equally or more affectionate than Barley."
