Last week, I told you about a new study that found watching porn made men and women less likely to support affirmative action for women.
Pornography gets blamed for a lot of problems, which I understand because it's supposed to be a bad, bad thing.
When I saw the headline, "Porn Viewing Impacts Attitudes on Women in the Workplace" my reaction was something like, "That can't be true…can it?"
I had to put the theory that people who watch pornography are less likely to support affirmative action to the test. So we ran a poll to either confirm or deny this study's findings and I'm happy to report that it's not true!
3,452 people voted in our poll and 2,779 (81% of voters) said that they support affirmative action for women. Keep in mind that the people that voted are not only people who have watched pornography in the last two years (like the original study), but people who were currently watching pornography.
So now we're at a stalemate.
The study says people who watch porn are less likely to support affirmative action for women. Our survey says that only 19% do not support affirmative action for women.
What we need to do now is ask another question.
You see, the researchers wrote that, "Pornography often presents women as sexual objects deserving of degradation, and even aggression. In alignment with these depictions, prior studies have found that pornography viewers are more likely to hold a variety of antisocial attitudes towards women."
Since the majority of you porn watching perverts do support affirmative action for women, I need to know what your attitudes towards women are.
So tell me, how do you feel about women?

The original Somerset House was a Tudor palace commissioned by the Duke of Somerset. In 1775 it was demolished to make way for an entirely new building, effectively the first purpose-built office block in the world. Today it houses a formidable art gallery (the wonderful Courtauld), a beautiful fountain court, a terraced café and a classy restaurant. Having replaced the Hermitage Rooms and Gilbert Collection on the river side of the building in April 2008, the new Embankment Galleries explore connections between art, architecture and design with a series of temporary exhibitions; downstairs a ceremonial Thames barge illustrates the venue's history. In summer, children never tire of running through the choreographed fountains. Family workshops take place at weekends and holidays, and in recent years Somerset House has hosted an outdoor film screen in summer and a wonderfully atmospheric ice-rink in winter.

Review for Boro
From the 17th - 19th centuries, Japan's poor were allowed only to wear dark blue, brown and grey. Brighter colours were reserved for the wealthy ruling elite, as were luxury fabrics, like cotton. When the rich threw away their clothes, poor people gathered together the scraps and stitched them together to make bedspreads. The result (Boro) is the subject of this exhibition.
If this sounds niche to the point of obscurity, you'd be right. The exhibition offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of one of the world's most insular nations. However, from an artistic point of view, there is little to be gained. These are scraps of fabric, dyed blue and hastily quilted together to provide relief from Japan's cold winter nights.
In an attempt to justify the exhibition, or possibly to break up the monotony, the curator has overindulged considerably with the interpretation. A whole panel is devoted to how modern artists, name-dropping eight of them, could have been influenced by Boro ('Paul Klee would have been delighted by them') before acknowledging this did not happen. It's worth a quick look if you're at Somerset House, but definitely not worth a special trip.
nice place to be...
Saw the Sony World Photo Awards here which was fantastic. The permanent exhibition is worth a look as well.
One of my favourite places to sit in the sun... Their museum is pretty cute and accessible too
One of London's most innovative museums, I love the amount of thought they put into offering as much diversity as possible. There really is something for everyone (and many exhibitions are free) but it's also a great place just to sit and people-watch.
Always stunning, and has some classics in the gallery.
Indeed Somerset house has more happening then most people visiting London would realise. It is a true hidden jem which is ironic because it is also one of the larger buildings that are open to the public. A beautiful historic hosting some very up today events. As well as the family workshops a number of events for adults have been run in the evening which have been very well recived. An evening of no presure creative play with a glass of wine in one hand accompanied by sounds from chilled DJ's is a very plesent way to pass the time.

THE Arusha Regional Council for Teachers Association (CWT) has announced that its members will be joining the 'Saba-Saba' countrywide strike, planned for the first week of July.
An official statement from the CWT explains that teachers in Arusha Region will join their counterparts throughout the country in a major protest which is scheduled to start on the seventh day of next month (July 7), with a sole mission of pressurizing the government on the increment of salaries and payment of other arrears.
The teachers' statement made available here, also calls upon parents to support them in their mission to down tools from 'Saba-Saba' day until their demands are met to satisfaction. But the countrywide strike slated for the 7th of July, may not exactly record good results during the first day because the date falls on a national holiday when schools won't be operating though that hasn't prevented the CWT council here from distributing their written threats.
The council apparently demands 100 per cent increment on local teachers' salaries as well as improvement on their working environments, something that is said to be also a major problem, as well as settlement of their pending payment arrears.
The statement also instructs parents to keep their children at home during the days of the proposed strike so as to avoid what the council described as 'inconveniences,' to pupils and students.

Miles Harrison previews Bath's trip to Sale, as both teams' European hopes hang in the balance.
Last Updated: 13/04/12 9:11am
The race for a place in the top six of the Premiership cranks up a gear on Friday when Sale and Bath go head-to-head at Edgeley Park.
With the possibility of qualifying for next season's Heineken Cup still very much alive, expect no quarter to be given in the Round 20 clash.
Sale go into the match in seventh, just two points behind Gloucester, but Bath - still digesting the news that rugby director Sir Ian McGeechan and forwards coach Martin Haag will not be at the club next year - trail their hosts by a further two points and know that defeat would all but end their chances of a top-half finish.
Sky Sports commentator Miles Harrison will be in Stockport to cover the match and can't wait to see who wants it more...
Miles, how do you think the recent announcements about Sir Ian McGeechan and Martin Haag will affect the club in last few months of the season? How will Bath react against Sale?
MILES REPLIES: The normal response to news like this is that the players desperately seek to provide the kind of finish that would act as the right send-off for their coaches. I don't see any reason why this will not be the case for the Bath squad as they look to make sure that Ian McGeechan and Martin Haag leave on a high. That high would, of course, be the gaining of a European Cup place next season. And, when all is said and done, that is the main motivation here regardless of the news of the imminent departure of those two men.
Like Bath, Sale have really struggled recently (losing three in a row in the Premiership). Are you surprised that a Steve Diamond team has conceded so many points in recent games?
MILES REPLIES: In short, yes. I recall commentating on Sale on New Year's Day at Leicester and there was nothing that day which suggested that, a few months later, this team would be losing games by 45 points to nine as they did against Saracens recently. Clearly, Steve Diamond himself wasn't too impressed either as he reacted by ending the club's relationship with coach Tony Hanks. In its own way though, the conceding of the 'winning lead' against Newcastle was just as alarming as that result against the champions. OK, Newcastle are scrapping for their lives but if Sale want to be a Heineken Cup team next season then they simply have to put away the bottom club after having made such a promising start to the game. I would be surprised if they mentally put their foot in it again at home this week; they have to be right for this one as defeat could all but end their European chances.
Michael Claassens and Dwayne Peel are both class acts but which pack do you think will have the edge to deliver the good ball to their scrum-halves?
MILES REPLIES: Well, Sale have picked a big front-row with Andrew Sheridan and Tony Buckley propping and they will be looking to those two men to set the platform and therefore the tone. Sheridan is on his way at the end of the season and will be keen to leave a goodbye present of European rugby. Buckley was bought to deliver in games like these. In the second-row, Bath have Stuart Hooper back and, in Dave Attwood, they have a man who will be desperate to push himself right back into the England picture. In the back-row, Sale have an out-and-out seven in Dave Seymour and Bath have Carl Fearns, a different type of seven who will be looking to impose himself on his former club. As you suggest, that forward battle is going to be key and perhaps no battle more vital than the Seymour v Fearns contest. Whoever can deliver the edge here might just tip what should be a finely-balanced game in the favour of their team. I hope you can join us for a match that could well decide which of these teams plays European Cup rugby next season. Gloucester, the favourites for that sixth spot, play on Saturday and will be watching with great interest. Speak to you all from Stockport.

Recapture - a fly fishing film
Recapture shows the importance of Fly Fishing not only as a sport, but also as priceless way to facilitate connections; connections to our environment, each other, and the fish we spend countless hours pursuing. It's funny; when I look back at my formative years I realize the time we are connected to the fish represent a small drop in the bucket of time.
It's not the fish, but the intricate web of connections to all facets of life in the social and environmental spectrum that occupies the majority of our time fishing.
That's what keeps us coming back for more.
In the grand scheme of things, it's the sights and sounds of our favorite fishery, the friendships, and the community that endures long after a day on the river is over, or the last grain of salt has been washed from our fingertips.
Maybe it's the thought of the pull that gets us out there initially, but it's the people and places that make the memory.

What's so good?
By Jessica Deeken | Jan 19, 2011 | Total plays: 25,511
The title song echoes back to Massive Attack's Blue Lines around 2:30 with a psychedelic bridge, building from a clean early melody and syncopated beat into a haze of cymbals, synth, and guitar. It sets the tone for an album that paces out an array of highlights without ever losing its focus on the morose.
"Take it or Leave" begins with an eerie atmospheric clatter, like turning through a radio dial when every station lies just out of reach. On each song, there's an easy tension between organic guitar layers and a wily but subtly structured synth. The tension is easy to appreciate, but not easy to create, and the album comes off as a whole because of this equilibrium. Frontman Gerald Sonessa's lyrics are well crafted, "You will open your eyes / before all of this dies / You can only wink your eye..." but stay planted firmly behind what sounds like piles of pedals and other sonic goodies.
That dynamic makes for a great launch into a loud, all out rock show, which SAYS puts on, although it had me a little concerned for the record. Where the live set is strident, the recording takes a smart step back, and plays within a restrained framework that shows off the band's technical abilities.
Disbelieving captures more than their creative talents as performers and adds the curious feeling that evil robots may be steering this one. It may be archetypal Seattle shoegaze, but it's nice that not everyone is making dance music. And it's refreshing that these songs may never sell a single car.

Imperfect Chemistry by Mary Frame
Lucy London puts the word genius to shame. Having obtained her PhD in microbiology by the age of twenty, she's amassed a wealth of knowledge, but one subject still eludes her—people. The pendulum of passions experienced by those around her both confuses and intrigues her, so when she's offered a grant to study emotion as a pathogen, she jumps on the opportunity.
When her attempts to come up with an actual experiment quickly drop from lackluster to nonexistent, she's given a choice: figure out how to conduct a groundbreaking study on passion, or lose both the grant and her position at the university. Put on leave until she can crack the perfect proposal,'
she finds there's only one way she can study emotions—by experiencing them herself.
Enter Jensen Walker, Lucy's neighbor and the one person on the planet she finds strangely and maddeningly appealing. Jensen's life is the stuff of campus legend, messy, emotional, complicated—in short, the perfect starting point for Lucy's study. When her tenaciousness wears him down and he consents to help her, sparks fly. To her surprise, Lucy finds herself battling with her own emotions, as foreign as they are intense. With the clock ticking on her deadline, Lucy must decide what's more important: analyzing her passions…or giving in to them?
This was a cute, short book that was definitely easy to read. I think the writer has a lot of potential. I would have liked to have seen Freya's story line developed more and to know a little bit more about Jenson, but the story itself is good.

Over the weekend, The Orlando Sentinel reported that NASA is considering building a hovering outpost beyond the Moon at L-2 (Lagrangian point 2) that will be a 'gateway' to serve as a point for launching human missions to Mars and asteroids. The buzz among the space-related social medias ranged from "this is the greatest idea ever" to "this is make-work for the Space Launch System, (NASA's new rocket.)" The newspaper's report cited a White House briefing given in September by NASA Administrator Charlie Bolden, but said "it's unclear whether it has the administration's support. Of critical importance is the price tag, which would certainly run into the billions of dollars.".

Old, Good NewsBy
Usually, when Huffington Post, The New York Times, and The Daily Beast are giddy with excitement over something the Pope said about abortion, gay-marriage, or contraception, there's either been a serious misunderstanding or the eschaton is near.
For those who haven't yet heard, America Magazine (and several other Jesuit publications worldwide) has just published a lengthy interview of Pope Francis in which the Holy Father says some things that are making lots of faithful Catholics deeply uneasy.
They shouldn't be.
Before we get into some of the things Pope Francis said in his interview, it is worth recalling something Pope Benedict XVI wrote Deus Caritas Est, "Being Christian is not the result of an ethical choice or a lofty idea, but the encounter with an event, a person, which gives life a new horizon and a decisive direction."
Being a Christian is not, first and foremost, about ideas and rules. That is not to say our faith does not engage our minds or demand obedience (it obviously does both); it is simply to observe—and this is fundamental—that faith does not begin there. Everything Pope Francis says in his interview should be understood in this light. As you read Pope Francis' words (and please do read the interview) it won't be hard to keep this in mind because Pope Francis makes this same point, repeatedly.
The Church's moral teachings flow from the Gospel. The Church's moral teachings are a consequence, not the cause, of Christian faith. They are rooted in Him and lead us back to Him. The moral teachings of the Church are important precisely because (and ONLY because!) they are rooted in the Truth about man, revealed in Jesus Christ, Son of the Father, who sends His Holy Spirit upon His bride the Church.
"We have to find a new balance," Pope Francis says in the interview, "otherwise even the moral edifice of the church is likely to fall like a house of cards, losing the freshness and fragrance of the Gospel. The proposal of the Gospel must be more simple, profound, radiant. It is from this proposition that the moral consequences then flow."
Outside of this "context," Christian morality makes little sense and all our evangelical efforts hit a dead end. Thus, as Pope Francis says, "We cannot insist only on issues related to abortion, gay marriage and the use of contraceptive methods. This is not possible. I have not spoken much about these things, and I was reprimanded for that. But when we speak about these issues, we have to talk about them in a context. The teaching of the church, for that matter, is clear and I am a son of the church, but it is not necessary to talk about these issues all the time."
The challenge for the Church, as the Pope seems to see it, is not that people are unaware that the Church considers, for example, abortion, contraception, and homosexual acts to be sinful (everyone knows this); the problem is that they don't understand why the Church teaches what it does. The Church's moral teachings are known, but because they are taken out of context, (or presented without context) they are seen as arbitrary, ad hoc, and unreasonable—as Pope Francis put it, as "a disjointed multitude of doctrines to be imposed insistently."
Can anyone deny that this is a fair description of how the world (and many Catholics, for that matter) perceives the Church's moral doctrines?
There must be "balance," as the Pope puts it, in how the Church addresses the world. In the proper context, it's clear that Pope Francis isn't "playing down" the Church's moral teachings. He isn't undermining the sanctity of life or the intrinsic meaning of human sexuality. He's calling upon the Church to reinforce the foundations upon which those moral doctrines rest and upon which their coherence depends.
One final point. There are real risks that come with the way Pope Francis is talking about these things. He will be misunderstood—sometime through ignorance, sometimes through malice—and those who want to use his words to undermine the Church's long-standing teaching will be given the opportunity to do so. One might ask, Is it worth risking all these confusions and pitfalls to say something ("Jesus, not the moral law, is the heart of the Faith") that is not really news? Perhaps the simple answer is: Old news it may be, but it is very Good News, too.

He said we don't need to keep talking about it. Period. Move on to Jesus' true message of love and acceptance of all men. This is the basis of Jesus teaching not abortion or gay rights issues. Judge and correct your own sins. God loves and forgives everyone. How would you feel if Jesus' walked in on your discussions of division and intolerance for others in whose shoes you don't walk and therefore don't understand. He loved and understood the ones that society made outcasts. Which today would be the gays and abortion seekers you want to keep in the limelight. Pray for tolerance and unity. Pray for Pope Francis. He understands Jesus' teachings and he has the courage to speak up.
Our dear Pope knows clearly that his words will be taken out of contest. IMHO, he should always end his conversations that the church teachings and doctrines are forever cast in the Gospel of our Lord. As St. Francis said: "Preach often and if necessary use words" or something close to this quote.
As a practicing Catholic, I want to give the Pope all due respect but on this I cannot! If anything we should be talking more about the evil of abortion, To me this is Jesuit talk! This attitude of "who am I to judge" business shows the results of society today! There is right and wrong and no amount of obfuscation is going to change that! Call me ridged but darn if I understand this man at all! He as a leader should watch his words carefully! I am confused and perplexed!
Paulette, I think you are correct. I believe we are witnessing a Papacy, that will leave a great and lasting legacy to the Church.
I agree with both Diane and Paulette. It seems that so many people are looking to criticize, find fault, disagree with anything they read/hear without really paying attention to what is being said that they entirely miss the point.
I'm mostly astonished by the way some Catholic responders have "buried the lead" about this interview.
First, let's note that whenever a commentator says, "This is what the pope really meant . . ." we are about to hear some "spin." We seem to be reading such spin on a weekly basis now. Is this going to go on for decades? Are people going to continue to re-interpret his words to fit their notions of what he said, on a weekly basis, for years and years? Or is there going to be a tipping point after which people start to say: "No more re-interpretation. Just take the Holy Father at his word."
Second, so many Catholic commentators like to minimize the Pope's words by claiming that he is nieve about Vatican procedures, and that he doesn't understand how self-serving the vicious media is, and that he doesn't cautiously fall back on his "handlers." This interview puts that nonsense to rest.
The Holy Father knows exactly what he is doing, what he is saying, how it's being read, and the effect it is having. And his statements in this interview show that he understands all those things profoundly.
In addition to his determination that too many of the faithful "obsess" over "small-minded rules" about abortion, homosexuality and contraceptives, and that he de-enphasizes those issues in his teaching role because we need to find "a new balance" and that such obsessing will cause the moral authority of the Church to fall like a house of cards, the real news of his interview is this:
The pope acknowledged that he knows the kind of press he is getting, and it is fine with him. He said that he knows that many conversation Catholics try to spin his statements differently than he means them. He said that many conservative try to parse his words, and strive to look at the more hardline authoritive and conservative he displayed as the head of the Jesuit order in Argentina. But he cautions those spin-doctors: he said that when he was appointed the head of the Argentine Jesuits, he was too young, too inexperienced, and out of his element, and that he made authoritarian decision because the conversative line was the path of least resistance. But, he assures us, he has found his governing bearings now, and he knows what he says and the effect it has, and he assures us, "I am not a right-winger." The liberal things he says are exactly what he means.
Nevertheless, some people seem to be striving to minimize his words and his intentions. I think in doing so, they fail to comprehend the largest effect of his papacy. Within 6 to 8 years, he will, as all popes do, appoint, elevate and install a generation of "left wing" bishops and cardinals, and will forever change the governmental and teaching force and focus of the Church.
Remember, he was elected by the Holy Spirit.
Jeff, you are so on the mark. Conservative Catholics are reacting rather than listening. Pope Francis is remarkable. He is exactly what the Catholic Church has needed. He is moving the Church toward the teachings of Jesus and away from the Old Testament concepts of a God who is angry and who will destroy us if we are not perfect. Thanks for your on the money summary.
First of all, if the Holy Father is looking to simplify the teachings of the Church for the masses, then why does he speak in such a way that it is requiring so many people to interpret for us? Christ made his followers THINK but he was not confusing or perplexing. His message was clear.
Also, with all due respect to the Holy Father, I do not understand what he means that the clergy should not be obsessed with these doctrinal topics such as abortion, contraception and homosexuality. In my entire life, I can probably count on one hand how many times I have heard a priest speak from the pulpit on one of these topics. I think he missed the mark. The people need the Truth and part of understanding the "why" is having Faith, a virtue that many of us lack and should strive and pray for more often.
Finally, I hardly think there is a need for the type of "balance" Pope Francis describes. If anything, we have heard enough of the fluffy, feel-good stuff for too long. I apologize if I sound too old-school for some people, but there is a reason Pope Benedict the XVI lifted the indult for the Mass in the Extraordinary Form. The roots and foundation of Holy Mother Church are in the respect and reverence of the Tridentine Mass. The movement of bringing back this reverence and respect will strengthen our Church. We all know what happens to a tree when its roots are dead. The Roman Catholics today need to understand where we came from so that they know where we are going. If they do not understand and desire a reverence for the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and the moral teachings of the Church, then as harsh as it may sound, go elsewhere. "And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them." (Mark 6:11)
Carol ~ Keep in mind that the Tridentine Mass only dates from 1570. It is an important part, but only a part, of our history and tradition as a faith community.
He was elected by men who were supposed to be open to the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Whether or not they were is debatable.
Chuck ~ Both our theology and tradition teach that they were guided by the Holy Spirit as their predecessors were in Vatican II. It seems to me that to deny either is to buy into the Sedvacandist error.
It seems to me the reason he says "I am not a right-winger" is because he can't be boxed into either of the "wings" that we so love to use to fit people into our schemas that allow us to hear what we want to hear. The plain truth is that no Catholic can sit comfortably on either of these wings, and Pope Francis is calling us to realize that time and time again. Christ's body has no wings.

#InstagramDiary: Cape Point
Natalie Roos
Natalie Roos' body was born in Johannesburg… but her soul was always Capetonian. At the age of 14, Natalie started work in the television industry, presenting popular local kids TV show, KTV. Ten years and another TV job later (presenting celebrity gossip show JIP on Afrikaans music channel MK), Natalie made the move down to Cape Town where she started her blog, Tails of a Mermaid (www.tailsofamermaid.com). Her love for the internet and all things communication-driven became a natural progression to a career in Social Media, where she worked in an agency managing the online presence, content and reputation of various brands.
Natalie's passions include cats, communication and Cape Town.
The drive from the city out to Cape Point is possibly one of the most beautiful drives that Cape Town has to offer – it takes you through Sea Point, Hout Bay, along Champan's Peak Drive, and through Noordhoek, Kommetjie, Sweetwater, Witsand, Misty Cliffs and Scarborough.
Along the way you might be lucky enough to drive past a pod of dolphins playing in the bay, or a troop of baboons crossing the road ... so don't forget to Instagram!
Cape Point lies 60km from Cape Town in the Table Mountain National Park, part of a World Heritage Site. Its natural beauty encompasses thousands of hectares of fauna and flora, including buck, baboons and more than 250 species of birds.
There is also an iconic lighthouse at Cape Point, which stands at 249m above sea level.
Take the funicular to the viewing point and Instagram to your heart's content before taking it back down for lunch at the Two Oceans Restaurant. Or, if you're up for a bit of exercise, the walk down takes 90 minutes and will really help you work up an appetite.
Fifteen things to do at Cape Point
- Take in some of the most breathtaking ocean and mountain scenery in the world
- Ride the Flying Dutchman funicular up to the viewing point, below the old lighthouse
- Sample world-class cuisine and enjoy the most spectacular vistas over False Bay from the Two Oceans Restaurant
- Shop for curios and mementos at the three Cape Point shops
- Discover cultural and historical spots, including monuments to early explorers such as Vasco da Gama and Bartolomeu Dias
- Great swimming spots, picnic sites and walks at the Bordjiesrif and Buffels Bay tidal pools
- Photograph the more than 1 100 indigenous plant species that grow nowhere else in the world
- Watch massive whales moving past Cape Point on their annual migration
- Keep an eye out for the more than 250 bird species occurring here, including some endemic to the area
- Spot the Cape mountain zebra and the eland, among a variety of other fauna
- Walk the shipwreck trail to view a few of the 26 recorded shipwrecks around Cape Point

Hollywood Backlot How I Met Your Mother
With this issue, LA becomes the print home of David Strick's behind-the-scenes look at hot TV and movie productions.
Only in sitcom-land can worlds collide in 22 minutes and make a sort of sense, such as when a confluence of events lands the HIMYM arrivistes—played by Josh Radnor, Neil Patrick Harris, Alyson Hannigan and Jason Segel—on their way to a Robots vs. Wrestlers event in the thick of an arty cocktail party peopled with Peter Bogdanovich, Michael York and Arianna Huffington. Naturally, hilarity ensues. And that's precisely the beauty of this hit show, now in its fifth season on CBS.

Try sparkling Shiraz for Thanksgiving
By Jessica Yadegaran
Tuesday, November 20th, 2007 at 10:06 am in Uncategorized.
An email from my friend Shirley, a reporter here at the Times and a member of my Wine Groupies, recommending a dark, fruity sparkling wine for Turkey Day. Just wanted to pass it along:
"Wouter and I tried a really fun, interesting sparkling Shiraz that would be perfect for Thanksgiving and wanted to share the joy.
We had the Fox Creek "Vixen" Sparkling Shiraz from Australia during a dinner at Lolo, a new Mexican Turkish restaurant in the Mission. (Tasty fun place! You should try it.) Anyhow, this Shiraz is a lovely cranberry color and tastes like carbonated cran-pomegranate juice in the best way possible.
It's bone dry: you get a lick of fruit and then it just drops off a cliff of sheer bubbles. Goes great with duck confit — the fruit complements the meat, and the effervescence cuts through the fat.
I think we hunted around online and found the bottle for $20 a pop at K&L."
Note that below the brief on the opening of Lolo there's news of South's opening, the all things Down Under food and wine bar on Townsend in San Francisco. I'll keep you posted when I check it out.

Mirko Gozzoli
Mirko Gozzoli is a 2 time World Professional Standard Finalist
From a recent interview Mirko explains:
" I started dancing at 7 years old. I was born in 1975. Then one year later in 1983 I found a partner at the same dancing school and we started to dance together. She was from the same region but a different town. I was lucky because I danced with this partner from 1983 to 1989 and then, directly after her, I began to dance with Alessia. I was very lucky, only 2 partners. Now Edita Daniute is the third partner in my entire dancing career. I danced with Alessia from 1989 to 2009 – 20 years. I began this new partnership with Edita in November 2009 and I am very glad to find a lady as clever as Edita. She opened my mind because we had two different styles of dancing. For me it was a new challenge to start again in Professional competitions with a different partner".
Mirko likes more to be in competitions then in shows. In competition he can demostrate his technical ability to improvise and have a good floorcraft. He likes to feel the other couples and to change steps even at the last moment. While in shows he has to follow the beats, the bars, and the starts and ends have to be very calculated. Edita told us she felt safe in shows because Mirko cannot change anything during dancing. But she apprecieted his leading ability in competitions.

The second film in Christopher Nolan's Batman film trilogy released in 2008.< read all 48 reviews
This movie was by far the best batman movie that has been made yet. The acting was really good on all points but Heath Ledger totally took center stage as the joker. Everything from his facial expressions to his voice and the way he moved was absolutely perfect! I was also surprisingly impressed with the costumes. The joker costume was perfect, it really looked more like the costume from the comic books than previous jokers did. And the batsuit was actually kind of sexy looking, it lacked the hard plastic fakeness of previous batmen it looked more like it was painted on in some places. That suit in combination with the sexy growl his voice takes on when he is angry is enough to make me buy the DVD! The special effects where pretty awesome too. From explosions, to the cool batmobile, and the gliding batsuit, the effects made watchers really get sucked into the movie and watch the whole thing (and it was pretty long). The ending of the movie really surprised me. When Harvey and Rachel are both kidnapped and tied to gasoline cans i really didn't expect Rachel to be the one who dies being as she is Batman's ex-girlfriend. But then i also see how it was necessary because the burning, the scars and the grief is what drives Harvey to become two-face. This is a really great film, if you didn't get a chance to see it in theaters it will be an excellent addition to your movie collection.

American Studies
American Studies is an interdisciplinary major that explores the patterns of life and thought of the American peoples, past and present.
Flexibility and choice lie at the heart of this major. The student who wants a strong pre-law program could emphasize social sciences and history. Another student might be centrally interested in literature, arts, and media. Designing a small cluster of courses would allow the student to pursue an interest in politics, African American tradition, or women and the American experience. Adding a minor in Business, Law, English, Women's Studies, International Studies, or Speech Communication broadens the major or adds a pre-professional dimension to it. Often, students transferring from another field or university find that substantial coursework will count toward this major.
Majors are offered opportunities to apply their knowledge through internships, whether in a historical museum, political office, law office, or business setting. Philadelphia and the Delaware Valley offer rich opportunities for workplace experience, as well as for field observation and practice within other courses. American Studies both draws upon and returns to the worlds in which we actually live.
Career Opportunities
The ability to think out of the box that American Studies fosters will translate directly into professional skills. Law schools look for students who can read an argument for its overall structure and its details. Teachers, writers, and editors need to integrate information and present it persuasively. Business and social service settings need workers who will respond with insight to the cultural diversity of customers and clients that they serve. While American Studies gives no specific vocational certification, it offers the foundation for developing one's expertise throughout life.
Several fields deserve specific mention. Graduates might look for positions presenting the national heritage to the public, whether in museums and educational programs or at tourist sites. Some of our graduates have become secondary school teachers, adding certification after completing the B. A. The American Studies major provides excellent preparation for law school. Majors also find careers in the management, marketing, or public relations fields in business, or they work as journalists, political organizers, or writers.
Opportunities in all these fields are enhanced by forethought and development of practical skills. An internship in one's field of interest provides not only a real taste of it but also a beginning credential. Adding computer skills would be an asset to any pre-professional student. The Business minor would enhance opportunities for a graduate looking for work not only in corporations, but also in any setting (for instance a museum or social program) with administrative and budgetary needs. Learning Spanish, even using it in the field prior to graduation, adds a powerful tool of communication in the United States today.
In addition, American Studies majors may go on directly to graduate programs on the Master's or Ph.D. level to become college teachers or museum professionals. American Studies is itself a national movement and academic field, offered in graduate programs at many good universities.
For more information on the American Studies major, you may call Phyllis Cole at 610-892-1456 or email her at email@example.com.

Rock Slide Swamp Slides
More than just a pretty face, Rock Slide's bronzed brass Swamp Slides feature an ingenious tapered interior, meaning the slide gets thicker closer to your fingertip, making for a snug fit and a wonderfully warm and sustaining tone, even with the smallest model.
The cutaway at the bottom enables you to bend your fingers easily, and the indents at the side keep wobbling to a minimum. Best of all, the aged finishes are also completely smooth and have no negative impact on tone or playability whatsoever.
MusicRadar Rating
Great tapered and indented design.
Quite honestly, what's not to like?

Dan Henderson Thinks Sonnen Title Shot Is Demeaning For The Sport | UFC NEWS
"I think it's demeaning for the sport. You have guys that are in line for a title shot and then someone else gets it, doesn't matter who it is, if they don't deserve it, the sport loses a little bit of integrity when that happens. It only happens because of Chael having a big mouth, which is fine. It's not Chael's fault that he got the opportunity, but at the same time, I'm not the one to go out and talk shit. I wanna earn it. I wanna earn it the right way."

Remind me…. Why is it your going to be an assistant coach for Chael on Tuf? Is it that integrity thing…. Good grief.
