For Realz?: Coming Up....
Because of sweeps, it's a little bit of a lull in reality TV land the past few weeks, since a bunch of shows are either about to end (American Idol, Survivor, Dancing with the Stars, ANTM, Amazing Race, Celebrity Apprentice, Hell's Kitchen) or just about to begin (like: the Bachelorette, So You Think You Can Dance, Real Housewives of New Jersey, Jon and Kate Plus 8 Plus 2, among others). So here's a partial list of summer reality TV shows starting in the next month that look promising from a feministy angle.
--Obsessed: A new A&E show about people with anxiety disorders, like panic disorders, OCD, and hoarding. Given the stereotypes of OCD sufferers as female, this should be intriguing! Plus, I've already admitted that I'm slightly ashamed of how much I like voyeuristically watching hoarders on TV. (debuts May 25)
--Reinventing Bonaduce: Mrs. Danny Bonaduce breaks out on her own, after winning another reality contest, called "Gimme a Reality Show." Uh oh. (Fox Reality, May 23)
--Wipeout: Intrepid contestants run a brutal obstacle course, and a woman's never won (I'm not counting the episode where they pitted fit female cheerleaders against 40 something male couch potatoes in the Super Bowl episode). I can't wait! (ABC, May 27).
--Next Food Network Star and Top Chef Masters: I'm always intrigued at how gender roles break down on these food challenge shows -- it's always a woman "cooking to show my kids to live their dream" or egotistical men shouting at people. Next Food Network Star is basically the same show as Top Chef, but on the Food Network (obviously), and starts June 7, Top Chef Masters is basically the same show as the Food Network's The Next Iron Chef (established chefs compete) but is on Bravo and starts June 10.
--NYC Prep: Gossip Girl meets the Real Housewives -- Bravo follows six kids enrolled at various new York private schools, drama ensues. I don't actually know if I'm going to be able to watch this show, I have a hard time with high school shows -- but there's no denying there's going to be some verrrrry interesting things to say about this. (Bravo, June 16).
If you don't have a subscription to award-winning 80-page quarterly Bitch magazine, it's definitely time to start one.

On December 15 last year, fighting that broke out between supporters of South Sudan's President Salva Kiir and Riek Machar--who had been vice president until Kiir fired the entire Cabinet--escalated into a civil war that has increased pressure on an already fragile independent press.]]>
Nairobi, September 9, 2014--Authorities in South Sudan must present journalist George Livio to a court or release him, the Committee to Protect Journalists said today. The reporter for Radio Miraya, a U.N.-backed station, has been held without charge by security forces for more than two weeks, according to local journalists and news reports.]]>
Nairobi, August 18, 2014--The Committee to Protect Journalists condemns South Sudanese authorities' shutdown of the popular Catholic-run Bakhita Radio station in Juba, the capital, on Saturday and the ongoing detention of the station's news editor. Security agents raided the outlet in the morning and arrested four staff members, according to the station's managing director and news reports.]]>
"Not sure I can talk about my 'career' just yet--I'm still just getting started!" freelance photographer Camille Lepage told the photography site Petapixel in October 2013.
Less than a year later, Lepage's body was found in a car in the Central African Republic, according to news reports citing the French government. She had been traveling with fighters of the anti-Balaka Christian militia and was killed in an ambush, the reports said.]]>
Last week, South Sudanese Information Minister Michael Makuei warned reporters in the capital, Juba, not to interview the opposition or face possible arrest or expulsion from the country. According to the minister, a lawyer by profession, broadcast interviews with rebels by local media are considered "hostile propaganda" and "in conflict with the law."]]>
"This is the worst situation I ever reported since I started reporting in 2007," BBC Media Action producer Manyang David Mayar told me after he left the restive town of Bor, Jonglei State in South Sudan. Forced to walk long distances carrying his suitcase on his head to escape the fighting in Bor, Mayar drank dirty water and slept in the bush.]]>
"They even started shooting through my house--I had to lie on the floor with my wife and kids," Angelo Wello, a freelance journalist for faith-based news sites and a pastor, told me. Like many residents of the capital of Juba, South Sudan, Angelo has found it incredibly hard to get accurate information and report on one of the most tragic, restive periods in South Sudan's short history. And, like other South Sudanese journalists, he has to weigh his work against safeguarding his own and his family's safety.]]>
His Excellency President Salva Kiir Mayardit
Office of the President, State House
Juba, South Sudan
Via email
Dear President Salva Kiir Mayardit,
We are writing to express our deep concern about the deteriorating state of press freedom in your country. In the past six months, CPJ has documented several cases of attacks, intimidation, and detention of journalists by security agents in South Sudan and we are concerned that this harassment has led to self-censorship and even exile among the local press corps. We urge you to use the power of your office to ensure that journalists are allowed to work freely without harassment and censure from state security officials.
In the past six months, CPJ has documented at least 12 cases of attacks, harassment, and detention of journalists in South Sudan. In all but two of the cases, security officials were the perpetrators. Security agents, including police, have routinely harassed, intimidated, and occasionally detained journalists.
The latest episode occurred on May 2, when Deputy Interior Minister Salva Mathok Gengdit ordered the unlawful detention of the chief and managing editors of the private daily Juba Monitor for publishing a statement that implicated him in the March murder of a traffic policeman, according to news reports. Gengdit denied the allegations, according to news reports. In early April, security agents arbitrarily detained and threatened a Miraya FM journalist in Malakal, and in January, security officials arrested seven journalists in an apparent attempt to stifle reporting on a violent crackdown on protesters in the city of Wau.
Local journalists have told CPJ that this official intimidation has caused them to censor themselves and, in some cases, even flee the country. In December 2012 and January 2013, two outspoken columnists, Zehariah Manyok and John Penn de Ngong, went into exile after receiving anonymous threats, according to news reports and CPJ research.
Mr. President, official threats and attacks against the press violate Article 24 of South Sudan's transitional constitution, which stipulates that "all levels of government shall guarantee the freedom of the press."
While it is encouraging that the Media Authority Bill, which was designed to provide the press with an independent regulator, was signed into law this week, the state must also address security concerns of journalists in South Sudan. In your New Year's address, you expressed concern about the cases of harassment, abuse, and arbitrary detention of members of the public who are critical of the government. In your statement, you called such actions "unacceptable" and disrespectful to those who fought for South Sudan's independence.
We urge you to ensure that security agents who continue to intimidate and censor the South Sudanese press face consequences up to and including criminal prosecution. Such a firm response to these violations will restore confidence among the local media and ensure that the freedoms for which your government fought will be upheld.
Joel Simon

A day before U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton visited South Sudan this month, McClatchy correspondent Alan Boswell reported that President Salva Kiir had finally acknowledged his government's support for a Nuba Mountains-based group that had been skirmishing with Sudanese forces. In a letter to his U.S. counterpart, the story said, Kiir apologized for his previous denials, which came in the face of U.S. intelligence to the contrary. The story, which exposed an important element in the tense relations between the two once-joined nations, put Boswell in the cross-hairs.]]>
Last week, South Sudan's ruling party secretary-general, Pagan Amum, won an important court battle, absolving him of allegations that he received a $30 million corrupt payment in 2006. The accusations came from former Finance Minister Arthur Akuien Chol, who alleged earlier this year that he had received orders from "above" to transfer the public money, according to local reports. The court acquitted Amum based on insufficient evidence. The money, however, remains unaccounted for, according to local reports. And the odds of any journalist in South Sudan investigating the matter further are slim.]]>
February is the hottest month in Juba, the capital of South Sudan, and Mading Ngor, a reporter and presenter for the Catholic-owned Bakhita FM, trudged his way through the heat to cover parliament proceedings last week--only to be thrown unceremoniously out of the assembly. "Before I had time to argue, four security guards pinned me to the ground and dragged me across the floor, tearing up my trousers," Ngor, a hard-hitting, critical journalist, told me.]]>

2013 Porsche Cayenne GTS officially revealed [video]
Porsche will be performing the world debut of the new Cayenne GTS at Auto China in Beijing later this month and here are the first images and details previewing the model. The German automaker boldly described it as an SUV that drives like a sports car.
Under the hood lies a 4.8-liter V8 engine that produces 420PS (309kW/414hp), which represents a 15PS bump over the previous generation, and it is mated with Porsche's eight-speed Tiptronic S transmission system. Additionally, the suspension has been stiffened to deal with the increased work being forced upon it and the overall ride height of the GTS has been lowered by 24mm compared to the Cayenne S variant.
It accelerates from standstill to 100kph (62mph) in 5.7 seconds and reaches 200kph (124mph) in 13.3 seconds while the top speed is rated at 260kph (162mph).
The Cayenne Turbo provides the inspiration for the front-end exterior styling and it is further complimented with side skirts, wider wheel arches as well as a distinctive roof spoiler with twin-wing profile.
Sales for the new Porsche Cayenne GTS are due to commence in July with pricing set to start at £67,147 in the UK market whilst their German counterparts will part with €90,774 (incl. VAT).
- New addition to Cayenne range with tuned 420 hp V8 and lowered, stiffened suspension
- World premiere at Beijing Auto Show, April 23
- On sale July 2012, priced from £67,147
The new Porsche Cayenne GTS builds on the Cayenne model's reputation as the most sporting SUV, offering a more powerful engine, increased dynamic power development and a tauter chassis with lower ride height. While the Cayenne GTS sits between the Cayenne S and the Cayenne Turbo in the range, its own special character enables it to be differentiated clearly from its siblings.
Beneath the bonnet of the Cayenne GTS lies an uprated 4.8-litre V8 engine, with 420 hp (309 kW), based on the Cayenne S power unit. Power transmission is via the eight-speed Tiptronic S with integrated auto start/stop function. The engine and gearbox have each been tuned to deliver particularly sporting levels of responsiveness, with the consequence that the Cayenne GTS sprints from a standing start to 62mph in 5.7 seconds, reaching 100 mph in 13.3 seconds. The top speed is 162mph and the Combined fuel consumption on the NEDC is 26.4mpg.
The chassis settings have been modified to further raise the dynamic ability of the Cayenne. The suspension is more tautly tuned and equipped with Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) as standard, while the body is lowered by 24mm relative to the Cayenne S. As a result, the GTS is even closer to the road and handles with trademark composure and agility.
The appearance of the Cayenne GTS clearly proclaims its pronounced sportiness with eye-catching features including the front-end styling inspired by the Cayenne Turbo. Further design details include window surrounds and trims in a high-gloss black finish, prominent side skirts and wider wheel arches plus a distinctive roof spoiler with twin-wing profile.
From behind the wheel, the GTS offers a sporting interior ambience courtesy of a bespoke interior finished in leather and Alcantara, and front sports seats with eight-way adjustment. Further standard features include a SportDesign steering wheel with paddle-shift, sports exhaust system and Bi-Xenon headlights.
Making its debut at the Beijing Motor Show on April 23, the Cayenne GTS goes on sale in the UK in July 2012, priced from £67,147.
Fitted to every Cayenne GTS is a Porsche Vehicle Tracking System (VTS), a sophisticated vehicle security package approved to Thatcham Category 5 standard, and customers will also be able to explore the potential of their new car by participating in a complimentary course at the Porsche Experience Centre, Silverstone.

We're suckers for the whole parting lovers angle. So when UsMagazine reported that Ryan Reynolds and Scarlett Johansson reunited for dinner, our ears instantly perked up. Unfortunately, they're not getting back together, so this was just a friendly check-in.
The soon-to-be divorced couple reportedly met up around 11pm on Friday, at the Chateau Marmont. They apparently had dinner at the Little Door restaurant before heading out for a drink. Sources say that ScarJo was the most vocal of the two in what was a "rollercoaster conversation," and allegedly seemed to be alternating between fighting back tears and smiling. This so so sad. Imagine what their babies would have looked like.
This is the second time they've been seen together publicly since announce the impending divorce. The two also met for lunch at the Blue Ribbons restaurant in New York in December last year. Wonder if Ryan asked ScarJo what was up with Justin Long?

This week saw a surprise new app show in the Windows Phone Store. Disqus, the popular commenting system used by many sites, made its app available for Windows Phone. The surprising part is that it is actually a Windows Phone exclusive at this point!
They have said that they do want to make iOS and Android apps but have no plans at the moment. Let that sink in for a bit. A popular service has made a mobile app and it is not on iOS or Android, but it is on Windows Phone. On top of that, they clearly state that they don't have any plans to make iOS or Android versions.
Windows Phone enthusiasts have been used to such things happening to them for most of the buzz-worthy apps. Typically, "cool" apps launch on iOS, and increasingly they launch on iOS and Android. Rarely do these apps make an appearance on Windows Phone, and even less likely that it would be simultaneously with iOS and Android. So, Disqus is a unique service for sure.
Now, before Windows Phone fans get excited and try to make a single event a trend, this has happened because one of the Disqus employees is a huge Windows Phone fan. This person took it upon himself to build an app for the platform and given how companies allow and encourage such activities nowadays, it was no surprise that it became an official app for the company. Kudos to the developer as well as the company.
The app itself is very nicely done, and it focuses on the community aspect of the service versus being a commenting app. Disqus as a service is of course not just a dumb commenting system, but they envision it to be used for discovering engaging discussions about a variety of topics. With a social network-style "follower" model, it allows its users to contribute across the internet. The point being, one may not be following all the websites pertaining to a certain topic but via Disqus there is a good chance you may be able to find a vibrant community for the topic of your interest.
Here are some screenshots of the app (taken from the app's Store website):

BOSTON -- It's never a good thing when the starting goalie is asked if he knows if he's starting the next game. Especially when there may only be three left in the entire season. But minutes after allowing all four of the Bruins goals, that's what Luongo faced.
"Bud," he said to the questioner. "Game just finished."
Is Luongo?
Until going to Boston, he was the picture of calm and confidence during the Stanley Cup Finals. He was on his way to shaking his reputation as an unstable big-game goalie. That has changed dramatically after being lit up in TD Garden for 12 goals in two games.
"He's the same as anyone else. He's been playing good the whole year," Daniel Sedin said following the Canucks' second consecutive loss. "Right now there's a few games left, he can't be down or stuff like that. He has to play his game, play the way that got him here and we as a team."
That may be the bigger issue here. Luongo will take his heat for his imperfections against the Bruins, made more obvious by the impenetrable Tim Thomas across the ice. But he's not getting any help from his teammates. The dozen goals he allowed is an ugly number. So too, is the one goal his teammates have supported him with in two games.
One goal.
Henrik Sedin doesn't have a point in this series and just registered his first two shots on goal in Game 4. Daniel Sedin had a goal and assist in Game 2 but hasn't done anything otherwise.

Ryan Kesler? The guy who took over the Nashville series and refused to let the Predators beat the Canucks? The guy who was likely the frontrunner for the Conn Smythe until, oh, about the moment he deflected a shot past his own goalie in Game 3? He has one assist in this series. He was a minus-4 in Boston.
Yes, Luongo has been bad, but there's a lot of blame to go around. Including the Canucks' inability to match Boston's emotion and drive for two games.
"I would say that they were probably the hungrier team the last two games," Luongo said.
That's a problem. Like they did in Round 1 against the Blackhawks, the Canucks have allowed a team back in the series after taking a commanding early lead. But it's worse now.
Instead of having to win four consecutive games like the Blackhawks nearly did, the Bruins need just two more.
If you believe in game-to-game momentum, the Bruins certainly have it. Good thing for the Canucks, they don't believe in it. They can't.
"We had all the momentum coming here," said Henrik Sedin. "Chicago had all the momentum for Game 7. Nashville had all the momentum when we came there for Game 6. I don't know. There's three games left or two games left. There's a lot of talk on momentum from the outside but we're focused on the next game."
They're also focused on trying to solve Thomas. During one five-minute interview, Daniel Sedin said the Canucks have to "find a way to solve him" at least three times.
They would never admit it, but Thomas is in their heads. The Canucks were satisfied with their shot total—38—and they were also pleased with the amount of quality chances they got on Thomas.
"We had a few point-blank shots tonight," Daniel Sedin said.
None of them went in. Thomas has the look of a special goalie going on a special run and that's trouble for the Canucks.
Now, headed back to Vancouver for Friday's Game 5, Thomas and his teammates have to find a way to keep it rolling. The Bruins seem to play better in the face of adversity. They play better when they're emotionally charged. For the first time all series, they have the momentum, and the adversity has shifted to the opposing dressing room.
"Every time this year that we've faced adversity as a team, we've rose to the challenge," Thomas said. "We needed to do it one more time because we were down 2-0. Now we've done that for two games. The challenge for us will be to keep doing that."

Vintage Synthetic Nordic Track with Fischer Zero Mohair skis (1970s), the latest trail grooming equipment, snowmaking technologies, adaptive ski equipment and a chance to try a hand at Nordic ski erg laser biathlon took place outside the historic 1818 Old Town Hall.
Afterwards, at Trapp Family Lodge in Stowe, 100 Nordic enthusiasts listened as Max Cobb, USA Biathlon, and Peter Graves, USA Ski Jumping, shared an overview of the 2013-2014 Nordic, Nordic Combined, Biathlon and Nordic Jumping U.S. Ski Teams.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 28, 2007 An air strike earlier this week in eastern Afghanistan was based on credible intelligence from multiple sources and by all indications struck its intended targets, the Pentagon's press secretary told reporters today.
NATO International Security Assistance Force troops used precision-guided munitions in the late Nov. 26 air strike in the mountainous Nuristan province, killing several insurgents, Geoff Morrell said during a Pentagon briefing. Abdullah Jan, the western Nuristan Taliban commander, is believed to be among those killed.
Morrell dismissed press reports that the attack had mistakenly killed civilian construction workers. He noted that the closest known construction site was a kilometer away from the target area and that no structures, vehicles or other construction equipment were anywhere near the impact area.
"We deem it at this point a legitimate air strike," Morrell said. He cited reports from ISAF and U.S. commanders in Afghanistan. "They had a legitimate target, they had multiple credible sources, and they believe they got their target," he said. "And at this point, there is no indication to believe there were the civilian casualties as are being described."
Morrell emphasized that the United States and its coalition partners never target civilians in their operations, but noted that "the Taliban most certainly does." Taliban fighters "most certainly put civilians in harm's way, use civilians as human shields (and) launch attacks from the midst of civilians," he said. "And they often, in the aftermath of a legitimate operation like this one, raise this issue of civilian casualties," he said.
"We have no indication at this time that there were anything other than legitimate targets killed in this operation," he said.

A June 26 public event will introduce the Mississippi State community and the general public to the university's new Life Sciences and Biotechnology Institute.
A 1-4 p.m. open house at the Pace Seed Technology building on Stone Boulevard will include tours and brief information sessions on the institute's various research efforts. Light refreshments will be provided.
The institute was formed in 2000 to encourage scientific collaborations among faculty members in biology, agriculture, human and animal medicine, food science, and bioinformatics. Proteomics, a research area dealing with proteins produced by cell type and organism, is its primary focus area at present.
LSBI also offers two-year startup grants to any MSU faculty member whose research falls under the umbrella of biotechnology, which broadly encompasses the use of organisms and biological processes to improve human health, enhance environmental sustainability and make agriculture more productive.
Among those discussing their investigations will be Drs. Shane Burgess, Cody Coyne, Larry Hanson, and Mark Lawrence of the College of Veterinary Medicine; Dawn Luthe, Yean Jung and Zhaohua Peng of biochemistry and molecular biology; William Holmes of the State Chemical Laboratory; Gloria Thomas of chemistry; Peter Ma and Gerald Baker of entomology and plant pathology; Susan Diehl of forest products; Terry Smith of animal and dairy science; and Felix Fritschi, Jeffrey Ray and Rusty Smith of the USDA/ARS Crop Genetics and Production Research Unit in Stoneville.
While the Pace Lab will continue as the home for faculty and staff members in seed technology, the building is about to undergo a $3 million renovation. Beginning later this summer, the yearlong project will result in improved laboratories and administrative areas.
For more information about the open house, telephone (662) 325-9208.

Airhole Face Mask - Vigilante
The Best Facemasks in The World
Airhole Snowboard Facemask
Airhole Facemasks are the best facemasks in the world because they are innovative, practical, and fashionable. The company is composed of snowboarders making products for snowboarders. Founded by professional snowboarders Kale Stephens and Chris Brown, Airhole Fasemasks provide the protection you need from the elements while bringing fashion to your face.
The Patent Pending airhole signature design expels moisture, retains heat, eliminates goggle fogging and allows for uninterrupted beathing and hydrating from camel packs or water bottles.
Rain/Sun/Snow/Wind: Airhole Masks are designed to help protect your face from the elements. Winter sport activities bombard your exposed skin with rain, snow, sun, and wind. The Airhole mask provides a barrier against these destructive forces using a weather resistant outer shell and a warm soft lining against your face.
Heat loss from the head is significant and prolonged exposure will result in failure. The face is a significant part of the head and is often neglected when dressing for snowboarding. Correct dressing in adverse conditions is essential for health and safety, as well as extending exposure time.
Cold burns energy and retaining heat retains energy levels. Wear an Airhole, look good, keep warm, prolong time on the snow...simple!

...Once Upon a time there was a very grumpy man. He worked in a job he hated, working for 'the man' doing meaningless tasks that crushed his soul and soured his mood. He left his job, packed his bags and travelled across the Atlantic in search of mountains covered in the freshest snow. For months he snowboarded every day, loving being in the mountains and loving his life. But, all good things must come to an end. With tears in his eyes and a pain in his heart he returned to his homeland. With no work and little money a decision had to be made. To go back to work for the corporate monster was not a possibility this enlightened man could face, and so with balls of steel (and a ridiculously supportive wife) he sold his house, moved in with his parents and used the money to build his dream - a Snowboard Shop where he could stock his favourite brands and meet likeminded snowboarders.
The result? Eight winters on, and still going strong, We are an independently owned and run snowboard shop that stocks rad brands at decent prices. ALL of the staff are snowboarders so we have first hand experience in the equipment we stock and extensive knowledge about what could work best for your next trip to the mountains. We product test all of our snowboards twice a year in France and Austria and write reviews for the UK's premier snowboard magazines - The Reason and Whitelines.
On top of all this, we keep our prices fair and always try and price match other UK Stores.
