Obama, Crying
While plenty of people criticized President Barack Obama's speech yesterday—"I react not as a President, but as anybody else would—as a parent"—I was less bothered by what he said than I was relieved by what he did: choke up, take a minute to gather himself and, through the rest of the press conference, wipe back tears. Of course, I thought. Crying is the appropriate response to have to a day like this.
Mia Farrow tweeted that it was the first time she'd seen an American president cry, and she might be right. It's a significant step. In most of politics, and most of public life, we've been taught that emotion is the opposite of reason, that our feelings will cloud our judgment, and that the last thing an American president should ever do is trade swagger for sentiment. It was this view of emotion, of course, that helped justify the barring of women from public office. She just can't handle it, was the refrain. The view of women as inherently more emotional than men is one feminists have been fighting for years, but just as important a fight is one over the view that our feelings somehow don't belong in reasonable discourse. Where else should we start in our policymaking and our response to horrific events, if not at a basic empathy for our fellow citizens?
It was Obama's empathy that made him presidential: the deep feeling he had for his own American story and how it fit with our country as a whole. He deployed it when he gave his "A More Perfect Union" speech on race in Philadelphia in response to the Jeremiah Wright scandal, and it has popped up in speeches in a thousand little ways since then. Bill Clinton did it before him, but Obama, as a thinker and figure, cut a sharp contrast to Mitt Romney and his mechanical view of a hierarchical leader. I never had any doubt that he had done good works in his church, as everyone testified, I just doubted that he was capable of the sort of—tenderness, I guess, is the best word—that Obama occasionally exhibited. It seems to come from a fundamental respect for the people he hoped to represent; Romney, in his most private moments, exhibited only contempt. I thought of that again when I saw Obama tear up. How nice it is to have a president who's not afraid to cry.
Obama's presidency has always felt, to me, the end of a sort of misogyny in America's highest office. Obviously, we still have a long way to go. Only 20 women will be sworn into the Senate when the new class convenes in January, and Obama beat out our most likely female presidential candidate yet in 2008. But when Obama talks about a hypothetical child who wants to grow up to be president, he uses the pronoun, "she." When he talks about his wife, he talks about a partner and a friend who does important work, he doesn't thank, Romney did, wives "for taking up their slack as their husbands and dads have spent so many weeks away from home." It may be appropriate in the long term for Obama to act more like a president than a parent, but when Obama said it, and began to cry, we know that he meant that he really understood.

I agree, too. I certainly hope that Obama (and others) will react in serious policy terms, and very soon. Not at this moment.
And it wasn't the tear he wiped away that got to me. It was his inability to speak. That place of silence, horrible but also reverend, is where we can all join together. Where we go from here -- that can wait till Monday morning. (Though I am glad for those beginning to speak up already, thereby ensuring, I hope, that Monday morning conversation.)

So is this the same Barack Obama that routinely orders drone strikes to kill "bad guys" and innocents alike by remote control, collects "baseball cards" of people on his kill list, and watched the killing of Osama bin Laden on a live closed circuit satellite feed like it was the Final Four?
Do brown children killed in Somalia, Yemen, Afghanistan, and Pakistan by his Nintendo war deserve tears?
Apparently not.

Sorry folks, but B.O. was NOT crying. In fact it took six hours for him to have someone write his "speech" after the shooting and there were no tears, just a fake wipe of a dry eye.
This shooting has become his political agenda to continue to take away the rights of Americans. He wants to make our country communist and we will soon have no constitutional rights.
As soon as our weapons are taken from us, our freedoms will disappear. Without the right to bear arms, we have no rights at all. Our country was built on the Right to Bear Arms, Right to Free Speech, Right to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of happiness.
Of course I am mad as hell the children and teachers were murdered. And yes, taking of his weapons of choice, a gun, MAY have stopped this masacre, or it MAY NOT HAVE. There has already been a bomb scare at a church down the road from the school.
People are going nuts all around and it isn't just people with guns. Chemicals, bombs, knives, ropes, and cars are all weapons. Where will those items go?
Goodbye Civil Rights.

Yes, you're absolutely right, this clown may have killed 27 people in some other manner, sneaking from door to door, hiding under their beds, then, once they were asleep, smothering them in their sleep with a plastic bag. No question he could have done that.
In your freakin' dreams, that is.
Look, there is exactly zero chance that there will be any substantive result from this incident, just like the one before that and the one before that and the one before that, not to mention the one that will come in the next few weeks and the one to follow in the next few months, etc., etc., etc.
That's simply the price of admission to the national freak show that we call modern America. But, hey, why stop with guns? Why not bombs and personal chemical weapons? After all, the Second Amendment says "arms" not "guns," so why shouldn't we have access to constitutionally protected weapons of mass destruction, too? A nuclear armed socieity is a polite society.
What's a little collateral damage in the pursuit of FREEEEEEEEEDOOOOOOMMMMMM!

Rated 4 out of 5Â by FPKaraK PERFECT VINTAGE BOOT - but TIGHT - READ I LOVE THESE BOOTS! If you are on the fence I would def leap over! BUT make sure you know these fit NOTHING LIKE THE BROWN OR CLASSIC BLACK. MUCH MORE STIFF AND TIGHT IN THE ANKLE. Frye's are always well worth the money. They are strong, sturdy, always well made and have the most amazing leather smell. I have had pairs last me over 5 years and still look brand new. I had to get these because of how awesome the washes were and how funky they look. I am always afraid of scuffing my shoes up and marking and ruining them. NO ISSUE HERE! The vintage-y look these have cover it right up and in fact add to the character! It is friggin' awesome! Just make sure you keep it in mind they are not all going to look the same. My sister got a pair and hers were super rugged looking where as mine are not. Sizing - before taking the plunge on these price boots I wanted to get all the information I could before I purchased these online. I read reviews from 5 different sites. All were very, very mixed. Lots said to size up. THANK GAWD I was able to try them on in a department store. They did not run small at all. In fact, I could have gone down a half size. These boots are very large. ***HOWEVER*** and here is the HUGE ***BUT*** I said there is a big big but ...LOL. as everyone has mentioned the ankle area is soooooooo tight. Unless you have toothpick feet your not getting your foot in there. I mean, I have very narrow feet but even I was wrestling with getting these on. Every time I wear them I PRAY I do not have to take them off for fear of not being able to get them back on. I am guessing they are like this due to the fact they are large and very heavy. I am normally a 7/5 and the 7.5 def fit loose. I could have opted for a 7 even but I like to wear lots of the funk FP socks. Problem with the sizing down is if you have narrow enough feet for these the size up is going to be TOO BIG. The ankle is still the same. I read reviews for these on every site possible and they are all mixed. I saw TRUST YOUR GUT. Know your own foot. LOVE THESE def worth the money! I just hope I didn't make the mistake by not sizing DOWN! I have worn them MANY, MANY times and still have such problems with getting them on. If you can try these on you must. Once they are on they are PERFECT, COMFY and do not hurt my feet at all. They are HEAVENLY so the struggle makes it worth it. I just wish they fit like the classic Veronica's! 4.1.2011
Rated 5 out of 5Â by fp love love these These boots are great. I would say they run 1/2 smaller than other frye boots. 12.9.2010
Rated 4 out of 5Â by Kate98 Beautiful but hard to get on The picture is quite true to how they look. They are extremely comfortable and feel like they will last a long time too. My only struggle with them is getting them on. I have thin ankles, but it is hard to get your foot past the ankle part of the boot. I have to pull quite a lot. That also means that I can only wear thin socks with them. No wool socks in the winter! 8.15.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by ts7 Most awesome boot EVER!! When I first tried to get them on I was afraid I was going to have to send them back. But once I loosened the bottom buckle and used a trick I was taught when I was little.(Putting a plastic bag over my foot with a small hole in it) It slid right on. (The bag is pulled right out)they fit perfect and after a few wearings they slip right on. I absolutely Love Them more than any other boots I own. I also ordered the Gratitude boot and these by far surpass them. I sent them back. 1.9.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by roses_are_pink BEST BOOTS EVER!!! The boots came as pictured, are beautiful in person and I get compliments on them everywhere I go. I am a size 7.5 and the boots fit true to size, though they are a bit hard to get on. I have blisters on my heels from wearing them so much but that is just the standard breaking in process. The leather on the boots are gorgeous and they look good with everything you wear. I could not be happier!! 11.11.2011
Rated 3 out of 5Â by Chelseagillster REALLY SNUG!!!! I always wear a size 10 in these boots, and they take some SERIOUS EFFORT to put on. I have long skinny boney narrow feet and my arch wouldn't fit at all!! I am still wearing them adn tehy're comfortable to wear, and easy to get off, but getting on is seriously a pain in the a** 2.23.2011
Rated 5 out of 5Â by electtralyte BUY! These boots are seriously awesome! I got them in the light color. They look great either up or slouched down. The vintage look is perfect! 10.17.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Angelxoxo My favorite Fryes!! I was a little worried when I ordered these in my normal size (which is 7) after reading other reviews. I am so happy I didn't size up. They are hard to get on the first time and yes they will leave you with a blister (once), but after wearing them out to a concert and dancing in them that first time, they fit perfect. They stretched out and fit like a glove!! I did adjust the strap over the foot by making it bigger by one notch before I even tried to slide them on and yes they do even fit with socks. I have collected 6 pairs of Fryes over the last 10 years and I wear every single one of them still!! I do have to say tho these are my favorite. I love the stone color and I get compliments every where I go!! I would say they are true to size and if you are going to size up only go a half size because they will stretch a bit. If you have other Fryes that you have in a size that fits you do not size up just break them in with love:) Fryes are boots that will last a life time!! 10.2.2012

What's New in Alexandria Video -- June 2011 video describing progress on the Arlandria Action Plan and Four Mile Run Restoration Project
FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION related to Arlandria Implementation activities, please contact Brandi Collins, Urban Planner, at 703.746.3854 or email@example.com.
In June 2000, a Task Force comprised of community representatives, residents, and business owners was created to assist in the planning for the redevelopment of key sites in the Potomac West area north of Glebe Road, in the neighborhood known as Arlandria. The Task Force identified a vision for the overall area and for two key redevelopment sites, the Safeway/Datatel site and the East Reed Avenue site. Following this work, it was recognized that there were other community concerns that had not been addressed and that there was a need and desire for a long-range plan for the remainder of the commercial property fronting on Mount Vernon Avenue in Arlandria. At the direction of City Council, in January 2002, the City Manager convened the Upper Potomac West/Arlandria Work Group to identify and address the community concerns as well as to advise and assist Department of Planning and Zoning staff in the preparation of the action and vision plans. The Work Group developed an action plan to address neighborhood concerns and issues in the immediate, mid and long term, and a long-range vision plan to guide both redevelopment of the key "opportunity sites" in Arlandria and infill development activities on other commercial sites on Mount Vernon Avenue as set forth in "A Long-Term Vision and Action Plan for the Arlandria Neighborhood."
Known collectively as the "Arlandria Neighborhood Plans," the Plans were adopted by City Council in June 2003. Broadly stated, the goal of the Plans is to build on the strength of Arlandria as a pedestrian-oriented, mixed use place, encouraging the redevelopment of underutilized sites such as Safeway/Datatel. The Plans consist of two complementary redevelopment plans for the greater Arlandria neighborhood that provide a blueprint for present and future development activities in Arlandria; an interim marketing strategy to strengthen existing businesses and attract new businesses that will both improve the market and encourage redevelopment activities; retail guidelines to improve individual storefronts; and, an action plan to address community concerns with an implementation schedule for immediate, mid and long term improvements.

Ubisoft Developing a Next-Gen Online RPG
According to one Ubisoft Massive employee, the company is working on a AAA next-gen online RPG.
Next-gen is the important part there.
The employee leaked the "next-gen" detail on his LinkedIn page.
Although his resume reveals that he has experience working on MMOs, this project is only described as an online RPG. There's no mention of an MMO aspect in his description of the game.
The same untitled project currently has a job opening for lead level designer. The official listing leaves out the "next-gen" description.
The company is looking for a designer with experience making third-person action games. The listing describes the project as an online multiplayer, co-operative, or open-world game.
No specific platforms are mentioned in the job listing or the LinkedIn page.
Any theories?
