Theater 2 (The Roy and Niuta Titus Theater 2), T2
1971/2012. Lebanon/France. Directed by Simone Fattal. In 1971, artist Simone Fattal visited a Museum of Modern Art exhibition of artists' self-portraits that included all mediums save video. So, upon returning home to Beirut, she decided to make a video self-portrait. At first the camera stands in for the canvas or sketch paper, but the filmed portrait gradually captures the artist revealing herself, unraveling over time—by turns nervous, playful, introspective, inquisitive, disarmingly unrehearsed, and evocatively intimate. Ultimately the camera becomes a mirror, reflecting both the artist's enactment of a portrait and our gaze, discovering, staring. In French; English subtitles. 46 min.
1997. Morocco/France. Directed by Touda Bouanani. This video comprises three fictional tales of women's lives. In the first, Yasmine, a chambermaid, depicts her own imaginary world, drawing inspiration from a book of poems by Ahmed Bouanani, the director's father. The second features a fortune teller who narrates her story using the ronda, a Moroccan-Spanish card game. The third is inspired by the travel chronicles of Isabelle Eberhardt and by Taos Amrouche's rendition of The Song of Exile. In Arabic; English subtitles. 11 min.
Tale of the Umpteenth Night
1993. Morocco/France. Directed by Touda Bouanani. This video self-portrait draws inspiration from the storytelling tradition of A Thousand and One Nights, in which extraordinary characters become commonplace, and Georges Pérec's infamous book Je me souviens (I Remember), which collected the remembrances of an entire generation in France. The artist's voice emerges to claim its autonomy amid a social realm in which the collective supersedes the individual. In Arabic; English subtitles. 4 min.

NORCROSS -- Oak Hill Academy is known more for its boys basketball program, but the Warriors brought a 21-1 record to the Peach State Battle of the Southeast.
Unfortunately for the Virginia school, the event was at Wesleyan's Yancey Gymnasium. The Wolves haven't lost in nearly two years on their home court.
Wesleyan, which has won four straight state championships, jumped to an early lead, was up by 13 points at halftime and then survived a poor third quarter for a 60-50 victory Saturday.
"We have flashes where we look great and then times where we look mediocre at best," Wesleyan coach Jan Azar said. "It's killing me."
Holli Wilkins had 14 points, six rebounds and three steals as Wesleyan, ranked No. 1 in Class A and No. 20 in the ESPN Fab 50 national poll, improved to 13-2.
Brittany Stevens contributed 12 points, six assists and two steals to the victory, while Katie Frerking had eight points and four assists. Jordan Frazier scored seven points and Kaelyn Causwell had seven rebounds. Missy Byrd added six boards.
Wesleyan scored the first eight points of the game, led 20-11 at the end of the first quarter and appeared in command when Stevens hit a 3-pointer at the halftime buzzer to give the Wolves a 39-26 edge.
Oak Hill, however, outscored Wesleyan 14-5 in the third quarter to pull within 44-40. Soon the advantage was back to eight points, though, and the Wolves kept a safe lead by making 6 of 7 free throws down the stretch.
Wesleyan hasn't lost in its home gym since a one-point overtime defeat to Buford late in the 2009-2010 regular season.
Reminded of the fact, Azar said, "Don't jinx us."
GAC 45, St. Pius 30
Playing just 15 hours after a tough loss to Region 6-AA rival Buford, Greater Atlanta Christian bounced back for a 45-30 victory over St. Pius, Class AAA's No. 3-ranked team, in the first game of the Battle of the Southeast on Saturday morning.
"It was a good win for us, especially with the quick turnaround," said GAC coach Cal Boyd, whose team is ranked No. 6 in Class AA.
Brianna Cummings led the Spartans (12-5) with 17 points and 12 rebounds, while fellow sophomore Sydni Means had nine points, four steals and two assists. CiCi Buford and Sierra Lawrence each scored eight points for GAC.
The Spartans stretched a 24-14 halftime lead to 37-20 by outscoring St. Pius 13-6 in the third quarter and coasted to the victory.
Dylan Krause led St. Pius (13-3) with nine points. Freshman standout Asia Durr scored just four.

The Pornification of Pubic Hair.
Update: #2 on the Times, "From Sports Illustrated, the Latest Body Part for Women to Fix." OPINION > Great! Another Thing to Hate About Ourselves
Pubic Hairless.
What is it about female body hair that is considered undesirable by Americans?
What makes women feel the need to get rid of it, often through painful means such as shaving and waxing? Are the red bumps and ingrown hairs a fair price to pay for the prepubescent look that men supposedly prefer? I mean, body hair is natural, isn't it?
No one knows for certain the purpose of pubic hair. Some say that we have pubic hair for physical attraction. Science says it's there to help catch and spread the scents a person's body gives off—called pheromones and glandular secretions—which are powerful aphrodisiacs. These scents are fundamental to the ritual of attraction.
The medical field has suggested that pubic hair may catch and prevent everyday bacteria from entering the body.
For purely aesthetic reasons, this writer thinks that pubic hair (especially if it is trimmed) is attractive.
That said, based on my direct experience with women in their 20's to their 40's (much to my disappointment), the baldness trend continues to persist.
I did a little research on pubic hair as part of my efforts to understand when and why the media and the porn industry (and subsequently American women) decided that baldness is sexy:
- Pubic hair shaving actually originated in ancient Egypt and Greece when prostitutes had to shave for both hygienic reasons and as a clear sign of their profession. Although female body shaving was established as the norm between 1915 and 1945, pubic hair removal did not gain a strong foothold until the 1980s. The big hair look of the 1980's was reserved for a woman's head.
- Islamic faith requires pubic hair shaving. Shaving pubic hair is one of the Sunnahs of the fitrah, and Islam has stipulated that it should not be left without shaving for more than forty days (that seems quite long to go between shavings according most of the shaving women I spoke with). The basic principle is that every person should shave his/her pubic hair, unless they are unable to so because they are too old or too sick.
- Male Bicycle racers have been shaving their legs for years. Despite the argument that I regularly hear, that cleaning road rash wounds is "easier with no leg hair," the true reason lies in tradition and vanity. According to the professionals I have spoken with, shaving your legs is "all about looking clean and tradition." To shave your legs indicates that you are serious about bike riding, regardless of how fast you actually go. Half of being a cyclist, some might say, is showing off your package and shaving your legs. By this rationale, guys who ride bikes for recreation and insist on shaving their legs most likely are having some kind of sexual identity issues.
- Most women I have spoken with about this subject, regardless of adult age, maintain some kind of hair removal ritual. Most suggested that they were completely bare; those who weren't trimmed their pubic area into a "landing strip."
- America's relatives in Europe are even starting to see women shave their legs and underarms, a trend that is relatively new by American standards. There is a common perception that European women, with the possible exception of those in the English-speaking British Isles, do not make it a practice to shave at all. Having recently traveled to a clothing optional beach on the French island of St. Barts, I can attest to the fact that this is not entirely true. Many young European women are beginning to shave their underarms and their legs as well, although you still certainly see women of all ages with hair left in its natural state on legs and arms alike. That said, most British women seem to share the North American cultural preference for clean-shaven legs and arms.
- Most of the Asian American women I have known and the few that I have dated (ages 25-35) didn't shave their legs or armpits largely because of the fact that they barely had any hair at all. That said, they didn't shave their pubic area either because (I think) they had a natural "landing strip". One Asian friend of mine plucked the sparse amount of underarm hair she had with tweezers.
- Waxing and Brazilians (shaving and waxing are quite popular in the urban parts of South America) have become so popular that some States have enacted hair removal laws. Missouri recently passed a law requiring parental consent for minors seeking to be waxed "on or near" genitalia.
The good news for men like me is that women with pubic hair are beginning to be fashionable once again. Witness this drawing from an American Apparel ad:
You may think that this is some desperate ploy by a company that has been teetering on the edge of bankruptcy. To me, this is quite beautiful.
And the signal that maybe, just maybe, 1980's fashion, the desire to look like a porn star and the sick notion that prepubescence is somehow sexy is coming to an end.

Mera N hair in general must be strictly controlled in this society, people with afri can textured hair have to chemically alter it, women have to shave their body hair and men have to shave their facial hair and short hair on their head. What about us yogis who believe our natural lot of hair is sacred?
Rachel B
hahah hair was for friction people. back when we ran around naked and needed it to aid us in whatever way. now men make it appear undesirable by acting like its disgusting. i mean.. we do the same.. how many women really like 'men with …hair sweaters' ? lol we dont want a man with thick icky hair all over his back or say.. his ass ya know? quid pro quo.
and the sick need of approval is probably the main driving force in the 'shaving' world. be it your boss not giving you grief over a long beard, a man turning away at a womans hairy underarm, a woman hating waking up with her mans chest pubes in her teeth.. etc 😉
Valerie S I do have to say that I wear jeans A LOT, and if I don't shave my legs I get ingrown hairs and they annoy the crap out of me. I don't shave to please the opposite sex, simply to alleviate the irritation.
Just me.
Ashley C i can say for sure that the mainstream totally bare down there female look is dying a slow death and the triangle/landing strip is coming back.
And i happen to like nicely trimmed facial hair and longer/longish hair on men.
Mera N i think it is silly to be afraid of hair, i personally have had no problem with the issue of hair being unattractive, i think it silly that men put so much effort into looking like little boys, and yet i dont think it really matters beyond perspective. i find it is much easier to keep my hair intact, find it appealing and attractive on myself and others and glad i can spend what used to be shaving time being carefree, secure and unburdened about my appearance/grooming. it is all in how you choose to view it, 😉
Carol K ahh should not of used the hairy leg as an example….looks like a man leg..and no woman wants to look like a man leg, I'm afraid it ruins your stories point.
Mark R When the Kids inaugural for Obama was done by Disney — not our freaks — I almost did an Elvis on the TV.
Valerie S Carol, it is a man leg! A biker's leg.
Cristov R Even worse is that men are following the same trend.

Sorry Elephant — Lenny beat you by at least 40 years.
Obscenity is a human manifestation. This toilet has no central nervous system, no level of consciousness. It is not aware — it is a dumb toilet –… it cannot be obscene — it's impossible. If it could be obscene, it could be cranky, it could be a Communist toilet, a traitorous toilet. It can do none of these things. This is a dopey toilet, Jim

I started shaving all the hair off when I was 12, basically as soon as it grew in. I had never seen porn of any kind, though at the time (1970s) porn stars still had hair (I know this now from seeing images of "retro porn"). It wasn't about being "sexy" as I wasn't having sex, had no desire to, didn't even have a boyfriend though I was starting to think about boys. I had never seen a woman naked other than my mom and a couple of her friends over the years and my mom was a hippy, definitely not shaven. The hair just felt gross and somehow dirty to me. I still feel that I smell better and most certainly feel cleaner and more comfortable with no hair. The idea that the lack of hair in the pubic region is all about sex or being attractive to men is odd to me. While some men like hair free and others don't, my body and it's condition are maintained for MY comfort and pleasure. Having hair "down there" doesn't please me and is uncomfortable so I keep it hair free. I happen to have a body type that could NEVER be associated with prepubescence from any perspective, I am clearly and unequivocally a woman so that simply is not a viewpoint on the question that resonates with me.
Keep asking questions and exploring. As a society I think it's unhealthy for women to feel the must look a certain way or not be lovable or attractive. I hope for all women, hairy or not so much, that they feel their own pleasure and comfort are more important than that of any man they would like to attract. I just thought I'd offer another perspective…
So you hate you "dirty" "hippy" mother and that drives you to shave. Sad.
Jen — wtf??? I don't know how the heck you go that
amo — amen!!
Jen, you must be insane to have read that out of this post. Projecting something maybe?
I feel the same as you, the only difference being that I dont shave. I find the hair so comfortable and natural. I started shaving since i was 13, i stopped when i was 21 and its been so so good. I think every woman should do what she wants, but i wonder how many would really remove hair, if removing hair wasnt an actual thing.
elephantjournal.com Mark, did you read the article, first? If you have, you can leave a comment for Mark K. If you're just going off the title…
elephantjournal.com Carol, sounds like you didn't read the article before commenting..!
Mark Richert Skimmed, the usual PC happy stuff. It's all been covered — we need to honor those who go before us. Lenny died for being blacklisted.
Valerie Soraci Wait, I thought this was about pubic hair….
Mark Richert Lenny spoke about why parts are dirty — and if we are made by god in "his" image — then parts of god are dirty, yes? That is — we are all images of the divine. To state that we are divine, all of us sacred as a starting point — well, that's pretty amazing for around 1960. And pretty valid today.
Valerie S
I agree that it's pretty amazing someone back them was able to confidently call out BS when he saw it.
If you want to timeline this shit, I'm playing my Plato card with an image of the Cave on it. 😉 Honor that.
Don't be an image of the shadow, live in the skin you're in. Stop trying to get that perfect view on the wall of what it is you're supposed to be, just be.
I think it's great he could tastefully write about this subject. It's not like women haven't questioned or asked or caught a glimpse of each other's private parts and how we choose to keep them tidy.
And it's not like you haven't heard guys get questioned about their lack of hair on their bodies- "dude, do you shave your legs??"
In the end, we all have our opinions and preferences and on some animalistic level they expose us for who we are and that can be terrifying… or really f'ing liberating.
Your choice.
Valerie Soraci and, it's just hair, really, just lift poofs of modified fur. It's an extra gift from Mother Nature to keep us guessing and shaving.. and waxing…and plucking.. and trimming… and Epilady-ing, hello product of the 80's!
Gayle Menaker McWeeney "See my beard? Ain't it weird? Don't be skeered, it's just a beard." ~George Carlin
Karki Meade
Everyone has a body and most bodies have hair. I think of my own removal of hair much like a tattoo that isn't there: it's my choice to be this way and it's how I intend to have my body. Whether it's for sexual gratification, my own desir…e, or to please another, it's done because I choose to do it. If I want a tattoo that's permanently engraved on my skin, people might comment on its message or its quality, but few would suggest I'm a deviant anymore. But if I remove body hair, I'm some sort of deviant? It's my body, fuck off.
You can opine, but look at yourself before you complain. If a woman shaves her legs and underarms but not her pubic hair, she's normal? There's nothing normal or natural about that other than her desire to be hairy and not hairy in chosen places. It's her normal and her natural. And that's fine. If another woman is completely hairy, or gets lasered and is as hairy as a reptile, or a man shaves his entire body while singing patriotic songs, that's normal for that individual.
Our bodies: we clothe them in unnatural ways, cut our hair, brush our teeth, wipe our asses, get tattoos, shave, use soaps, put extra holes in our ears and elsewhere, color our hair, use our genitals for many purposes other than reproduction, and I'm glad we do.
elephantjournal.com Mark, if you read or even skimmed you'd know this ain't PC. Mark K is prob the least PC guy I've ever known. ~ Waylon
ahahaha ~ W
that was not my intention but thanks Laura!
well it came across as you were letting the world know that you have a long list of ladies you've experienced with from 20 and on up to no older thank 40…..would have been interesting article. next time maybe.
ummmm i wrote 20's to 40's not 20 to 40.
i work at a place that does body sugaring (a superior, much safer and gentler form of hair removal) and i can say that the brazilian is NOT going out of style! the main thing that keeps the business running is women and also men getting brazilians, and from talking with numerous women a day, most say its because they feel cleaner when bare, and they dont have to shave everyday or get in grown hairs.
but its painful to have hair ripped from your genitals no?
well if you really knew what keeps you clean you'd realize that pubic hair prevents infections just as not shaving your armpits and smothering them with perfumes and toxic deodorant leads to breast cancer. keep learning as much as you can to keep your body clean. just as using soap to clean your yoni actually makes it agitated and can lead to a very awful smell……
Hm. Perhaps just another thing to take up women's time so they can't worry about bigger issues?
I think women, and men for that matter can decide for themselves what is important and what isn't. I think this article gently points out some deeper—and important—issues around this seemingly superficial question. That said, yes, let's focus on those bigger issues, amen—write an article for us, we'll share it up.
i stopped shaving legs & pubes 2 years ago. smartest thing i have ever done. so much more natural and powerful.
Seems to me that a man who wants to have sex with a woman who's pubic area looks prepubescent is kinda creepy.
Exactly Mark's point, methinks. Amen! ~ W
A lot of people prefer the feeling. It's unclear why your preference is noteworthy.
You didn't interview enough women for this article, clearly.
Petite young women, who like to date older wealthy guys who do some yoga, mostly shave their twats. : )
ahaahah Neilman. Way to leave a comment that, unlike almost all others, ain't anonymous. Kudos brother. ~ Waylon
perhaps you should try shaving yours. I hear it makes your dick look bigger.
may be so but it won't reduce the appearance of child bearing hips.
hah? child bearing hips are amazing. boys you're too much. write an article as this is and expect to hear from fired up folks mark. no need to reduce yourself to the battlefield.
thank you. my father always told me 'you have to break a few eggs to make an omelette'. i am a secure man and am easily amused by jokers!
I notice a lot of people are anti-shaving for the pleasure of a partner. Just curious… what's wrong with doing something to please a partner? Shaving serves purposes other than looking pre-pubescent. I'd like the guy I'm with to bathe and shave his face so he's clean and I don't get beard burn when we make out. So what? Isn't it sweet and mutually pleasurable to do things to please our partners?
It is romantic and beautiful to want to please your partner. If you are more turned on with a shaved face so be it…..that is your prerogative in the same is the writer's prerogative to appreciate the beauty of a natural body.
The point of the story is this: i was wondering if i was the only man left with the "mostly natural" preference…..for sure a woman should do what she wants with her body regardless of someone else's preference including making a grooming change to please a lover. I was trying to create some awareness for the prevailing grooming choice and get some people to take a position……success!
I get it. I was responding to comments, mostly! Great article! x
Yes, we get it. You are a connoisseur. Congratulations.
yes, and of course he hasn't dated anyone over the age of 40. (even though he is 50 years old)
not true! i said 20's through 40's not 20 to 40. Also, i am not 50.
Let's keep it respectful, friends. No need to turn this comments section into a virtual junior high school. ~ Waylon
So you've compared the sex appeal of shaved adult women with that of naked prepubescent girls? No? Have you evaluated the differential degree of attraction of convicted pedophiles to these two groups? No again? Then on what basis do you conclude that shaved adult women in any way resemble the naked prepubescent girls? Our aesthetic preferences may differ, but unless you're going to tell me you've done the case-control experiments, stop implicating those who merely disagree with you in matters of lifestyle choices.
What stroke me the most in this article was the sentence : "Missouri recently passed a law requiring parental consent for minors seeking to be waxed "on or near" genitalia."… just give us a break, will you??? Soon they'll be passing laws requiring parental/governmental consent to breath in and breath out … that is so so sick …stupidity has no limit, really …
Or passing a law requiring folks to spell breathe in and out correctly. My mom, an English teacher, would have loved that one. ~ Waylon
"stroke me the most"
the horny ghost of Freud must be having a field day with these comments. ; )
Are you serious folks? There are far more serious matters to 'debate'. Mark…you are one sick puppy!
Like? This brings up issues of sexuality, feminism, relationship, love, body image…not bad for one little article. Constructive suggestions? ~ Waylon
so I don't have long hair…I shave my head (as in my cranium) is that less natural??? I think it's ironic that hipies have long hair— takes more water to clean it It isn't against being a woman or anything it's just freeing.
and I feel that way about body hair — I just like the feeling of being smooth and naked all over it feels clean and uncluttered and to me shows off what god made even better…
for me I say we all choose what we like best for ourselves and the right partners will be with us when we have mutual understanding…(and maybe love will win out over shaving or not shaving??)
wow. what a joke. we are such a sad culture that the normalcy of hair has become a topic of such debate. who cares, i personally think shaven women that look like they have a ten year old's yoni is perverted. who thinks having sex with a ten yr old is sexy. if you are one of those men please get a good therapist and hopefully you will one day grow up and enjoy the divine sacred beauty of a real woman in her natural sensual way!
I mentioned the age range only to underscore the point that this matter is not related to age. Sorry if my writing offends you. I do not make a living as a writer. The only way I will become better is by writing more and I am deeply grateful to Waylon for publishing my thoughts. Thanks for your critique.
mark, who cares about the age of all the "women" you have been with over the years. you look like pathetic here by all this personal details about the women you have been with between 20-40. could have been an interesting article but that blew it for me…….
maybe writing is not for you or you just have too much time on your hands.
I mentioned the age range of the women to illustrate that this matter is multi-generational…….So sorry if my writing offends you. I do not make a living as a writer as I am busy raising two teenaged children and with my work…..The only way that I will become a better writer is to keep writing….I am very grateful to Waylon for publishing my thoughts.
LOL, wish you had the courage of your convictions to not be anonymous—perhaps if you offered your name you'd offer a comment worth respectfully replying to. ~ Waylon
really you must edit your articles and please the content. keep to the yoga and the light . love a debate but not on such a badly written article,
Thanks, TTT. I love this article, personally—I wish I could have written something similar.
Keep to the yoga and the light? Are shadows—troubling questions—and issues of body image, sexuality, relationship not important to you? ~ Waylon
they are important to me! i appreciate your elephant journal just thought the article could have been edited and would have worked out. it cheeses your magazine to have an article that is talking about pubic hair from a man talking about women he's experienced with. it also makes those women look really bad and i feel sad for them if they are one of those women. as we know i am sure a few of them read your magazine. i just think in a controversial article that could have been profound …. perhaps editing it would have made it so. still think your doing a great job just think at times when there are few professional writers on staff that the content could be edited….. thanks,
There should have been a statement from his wife or girlfriend for balance in this article. Otherwise this looks like a guy that is looking at too much porn.
Evolving trends and preferences are interesting. I shaved to near bare before college but then lost the desire to maintain an unnatural image and stopped using cosmetics as well (this coincided with my college experience of expanded social-, environmental-, and self-awareness). For me shaving and daily make-up did not enhance my experience of life enough to make it worth the time, money, and discomfort or the broader consequences of my choices as a consumer. It became my comfort and preference just to be as God made me and accept that if this is unattractive to some it's all right we're just incompatible.
Yeah right ..he's so deep and interesting and unconventional. Go for it Laura!
Yeah, I never understood the thing about shaving or waxing pubic hair. I consider it a red flag if a guy wants me to go hairless, bordering on deal breaker. That is just inhumane and unnatural.
i love my body hair, ya chumps. pit hair 4eva
just for the record porn followed a trend started by women in the late 1980s. that trend was shaving the pubic area clean. porn caught up about 10 years later

Just an fyi, I have a brazilian because I (UNDERLINED I!) wanted it and I feel it is more attractive. It has ZERO to do with whether men like it, it has to do with my own being and sexuality.
When in Rome…
You're probably the only man I've seen openly admit he likes the bush! Grooming is so annoying and time consuming. It would be nice to not have to worry about it. It's a little more difficult to ignore when you're super hairy.
Dave Foley has a great bit about how he misses the bush. I, personally, think a woman should do what she wants. Full bush, trimmed, Brazilian, whatever. Yes, that includes going bare to please a partner, but only if she can go back to full bush if she wants, when she wants. I hate the upkeep of waxing/shaving, but also don't love the feel of an ungroomed bush. I do what I want with my body hair, and while I wish so many woman didn't feel pressure to groom, I don't see any of it changing anytime soon.
To the writer: Why does it have to be neatly, uniformly trimmed? Do you trim yours? Standards should be equal between genders, don't you think?
Ummmm male leg shaving and sexuality are unrelated. How on earth do you claim men who shave legs are in a sexual identity crisis. Seriously???
THANK YOU! I started shaving when a guy complained and if I could talk to my younger self, I would've said to kick him to the curb and save myself time, pain, and money. I kept up shaving long after we parted ways (even though I felt like I looked like a child) and, having finally let it grow back, will never ever do it again. Ever. Also, for everyone who removes hair because you "like it", have you asked yourself why you like it? In addition to that, are you aware that it is, in fact, not cleaner and can lead to several types of infections? I'm not suggesting that everyone make peace with their pubes like I have. I'm just saying, it's healthy to always question where your own motives come from and whether or not they're based on facts or opinions.
Sadly, I found this article rude. I support everyone having their own opinions and voicing them, however, it needs to be recognized the purpose of this article is no different than the flip side of the coin. Instead of saying, "Shave your genitals or you're undesirable," it's, "Don't shave your genitals or you're undesirable." Both are very shaming. I have tried every combination of body hair, or lack thereof, throughout my life and currently I simply choose to not shave my legs but I do shave my genitals. I find shaving helps me feel cleaner, I feel my partner's skin against my skin during sex, and overall it's just more comfortable. How about instead of talking about what people should or shouldn't do, we focus our energies on allowing people to make their own personal choices and supporting them in whatever that may be without judging them based on our own opinions.
I don't shave at all or do anything to pubic hair and like I never even think of it. The only difference instead of wearing bikini bottoms I get those shorts made out of bikini material. But seriously I used to shave and not doing is just so good. I stopped shaving when i was 21 and I am 23 now and dont miss it at all. I changed my diet quite a lot and I think this actually makes a difference but the hair looks super healthy. And when something looks healthy you find it pretty good.
Mark, for one- It's not true that most European women don't shave their legs and underarms. I'm from Serbia, and have met many women from, say, Hungary, Romania, Czech, Germany, Spain, etc. – all shave their legs and underarms, and this is not something new (it goes back to the 70s even).
I find it amusing that the author feels that it is only 'recently' that Europe is following the trend. How was that conclusion drawn? I am 50 and have been shaving under my arms and my legs since school days as have all my girlfriends in France and England. To see hairy armpits and legs is unusual.
Interesting article. Would have been good to include comments from the model who said of the shot, that basically they're trying to make the viewer think she's about to "show you my p*$$y", a slightly different matter. But my actual comment is about cyclists…as there are two generations of career, international pro cyclists in my family (me and my son), it is definitely done for functional reasons. Road rash, yeah, but also daily massages are easier and more effective and comfortable. It used to be said that it was for aerodynamics which was mostly BS… but lo and behold, recent wind tunnel studies show it offers a minimal benefit. When 10-15 watts energy expenditure over the course of a race can mean the win, well… And many of the "it shows your a serious cyclist" stuff is true, and yeah…we like the way it looks. But that's not why we do it, nor are we projecting some sexual identity issues, as you assert. That's YOU projecting. For what it's worth, every woman I've ever slept with thinks it's extra hot.
"petite young women who like to date older guys"….i think you may have me profiled…. :))))))

Watch a presentation that explains
the procedure, preparation and
post surgical details.
You have what everyone else wants, so take care of it! Start a medically supervised treatment plan now to properly cleanse, moisturize and protect your skin. Enjoy the outdoors, but remember your sunscreen. You already have the healthy glow, so if color is what you are after, reach for the bronzing powder rather than the baby oil. Control that acne, protect your skin, and smile.
The storm of puberty has now passed and it is time to see how you turned out. Is it pure perfection or time to start making healthier lifestyle choices to get that body you have always dreamed of? If you need a little help from us, remember that motherhood may be just around the corner for some of you. Breast surgery may affect the ability to breastfeed in the future, and most will notice further changes to the appearance of their breasts after pregnancy. Is now the time, or is it smarter to wait? We can help you decide.
It may be time to start using better skin care products to repair environmental damage and give more protection. Sunscreen and topical antioxidants along with stronger exfoliation using microdermabrasion or chemical peels can help restore that hydrated, youthful appearance. You may also want to think about Botox® to diminish laugh lines or create a smoother forehead.
It is finally time to bloom again! The after effects of pregnancy and breast-feeding may have left their mark on tummy and breast. But now there is no need to rely solely on your bra and Spanx® to get that shape you enjoyed before motherhood or have always envied. Whether you would like your breasts larger, smaller, lifted, or just an overall improvement in proportion, or perhaps a tummy tuck or thigh contouring, it's finally time to think about you again.
Just because the leaves change color, dry out, and fall, there is no reason why your face has to follow! Your forties are the season of life to start getting a little more aggressive, and there have never been so many wonderful options. A skin care regimen with retinols and bleaches as well as fabulous light and laser treatments that deliver fantastic results with little to no downtime may be just what you need. You will quickly get over your fear of needles when you see how fabulous you look with a little Botox and the perfect filler to make your face look healthy and youthful. Is it time to address those eyelids?
You may be working out harder than ever, but everything seems to be getting a little softer and wider. Pregnancies, weight fluctuations, and the aging process all begin to change our figure in ways that may be more resistant to diet and exercise alone. Just as a tailor can make that dress fit like a glove and hold everything where it needs to be, it may be time for a little alteration on your body. It may be as simple as melting away that little bulge with CoolSculpting™ in the office, (with the added bonus of no downtime or scars!), or liposuction may make more sense for you. Abdominoplasty could be the way to get back that ultimate core tightness.
You are wise and wonderful, and not nearly as tired as that person in the mirror looks! Our faces all age in predictable ways with bone resorption, fat loss, and skin laxity. Addressing these changes on all fronts is what actually creates the most natural appearance, which is by far our highest priority. Learn about the benefits (and limitations) of facial rejuvenation through surgery, injectables, and lasers for the best result that lets you shine!
Isn't it finally the time for you to make yourself a priority? Why continue to hold off on what you have always wanted to do? Perhaps you may want to revisit the results of a previous surgery that may be due for a tweak or possibly even a remodel. This may be just the boost you need!
Body types are as different as apples and oranges (or apples and pears) due to gender, genetics, and lifestyle choices. While you can actively influence some of these factors, many are completely out of your control. For example, pregnancy and dramatic weight fluctuations can leave changes that won't respond to diet and exercise alone. In some cases, plastic surgery may be the answer to creating a more appealing and balanced physique. Plastic surgery does not help you lose weight, but a capable surgeon can remove excess tissue, tighten loose areas, and ultimately influence where you gain weight in the future.
Options for body contouring range from non-invasive fat removal with no downtime or discomfort (Zeltiq's CoolSculpt™) to body lift procedures that require more extensive surgeries and recovery. We base decisions on your history of weight fluctuations, skin quality, fat distribution, muscle laxity, medical risk, and commitment to making healthy choices in the future to maintain results.
Because there may be many options available, a consultation with physical exam is essential prior to our making appropriate recommendations. Dr. Folk is professionally trained to perform the full spectrum of body contouring that is available. We have the experience and expertise to help you choose the procedures that are most appropriate for you.

Underground tunnel found on the U.S. – Mexico border
July 15th 2012 · 19 Comments
Mexican authorities found a new drug smuggling tunnel on the Arizona – Mexico border Friday, the fourth discovery in the past week. The passage was found near Nogales, Ariz., during a drainage system inspection on the Mexican side of the border.
On Thursday, Mexican troops had found another underground tunnel beneath the Tijuana – San Diego border and seized more than 40 tons of marijuana. The alleyway is a 365-meter long construction originated in a warehouse, and extended 100 meters into the U.S.
Soldiers found the Tijuana warehouse with four moving trucks filled with the drug, a trailer full of dirt, and excavation equipment. The tunnel was equipped with a railcar system. Three people were detained.
A week ago, a completed tunnel was discovered in an empty mall store connecting San Luis Rio Colorado, Sonora and San Luis, Arizona. The 240-yard tunnel showed a top level of sophistication.
According to the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE,) more than 150 secret tunnels have been found along the U.S. – Mexico border since 1990.

maybe this can stop some of the drug and gun smugglers!
theres plenty more stay tuned!
we for got the hand grenades!!!!
that isn't the first and it won't be the last.
Yes, a lot had been found earlier, and many more to come….
I saw they should be dynamited as they are found!
Or set traps in them like the Anchient tombs had.
when are we going to say enough is enough….there is a national security problem
when are we going to say enough is enough….there is a national security problem
Trap doors hidden to prevent escape!

blow the length of it…..WE WANT THE REPORT OF JUST THAT.
This is the ONLY way Obama can win this election….. Import votes thru tunnels…………….dj
perfect place to set traps
I absolutely believe the tunnels should be dynamited when they are found. They will just dig another, but at least that one will be closed. Oh, hope they aren't guarding it with Fast and Furious Guns
Still believe that Marine Snipers posted at caves end selectively dealing with those exiting would be a strong, strong deterrent.
Another one!
They need to booby trap the tunnel and put the trigger on our end and see how many of the drug cartels personnel disappear.

This article was previously published under Q315223
On This Page
During the Windows startup process, the computer may stop responding (hang), and you may receive the following error message:
One of the following error messages may also be included:
*** Hardware Malfunction
Call your hardware vendor for support
*** The system has halted ***
NMI: Parity Check / Memory Parity Error
NMI: Channel Check / IOCHK
NMI: Fail-safe timer
NMI: Bus Timeout
NMI: Software NMI generated
NMI: Eisa IOCHKERR board x
This behavior can occur if a hardware component malfunctions, or if there are damaged or incompatible drivers installed.
To try to resolve this behavior, use the following troubleshooting techniques. Because Windows can display only basic error messages when hardware malfunctions occur, troubleshooting can be difficult. Most equipment problems center around the motherboard, the RAM on a motherboard or on an adapter, or the cache memory on a motherboard or on an adapter.
To troubleshoot basic hardware problems, try one or more of the following:
Check the AdaptersRemove any adapters that are not required to start the computer and run Windows. In many cases, you can start your computer with only the drive subsystem controller and the video adapter.
If the error message does not appear, one of the adapters that you removed is the source of the problem. Reinstall each adapter separately, restarting after each adapter is installed, to see whether the error returns. If the error does not return after you reinsert all of the adapters, it is possible that one of the adapter cards just needed to be reseated. After your computer is running again, monitor the computer to make sure that the error does not return.
SolutionIf reseating the adapters does not solve the problem, replace the adapter that is causing the error.
Check the Computer BIOS/ConfigurationVerify that you have installed the latest revisions for your computer's BIOS or firmware configuration software. Go into the BIOS and set load Fail-safe defaults or BIOS defaults, disable any antivirus protection in the BIOS, and then set Plug and Play OS to No.
The type of hardware that your computer uses and the design of the motherboard determine what part of your computer's firmware can actually be updated. Various manufacturers provide diagnostic tools for troubleshooting.
SolutionUpdate the BIOS, the firmware, and/or the EISA configuration.
If none of these procedures isolates or resolves the issue, the problem can be narrowed down to the motherboard, drive subsystem controller, hard drive, or the video adapter. Advanced RAID or other caching controllers can have RAM, processor chips, or both that could also be the problem. If the simplest configuration contains one of these advanced adapters, resolving the problem may require use of additional troubleshooting or diagnostic software, possibly using duplicate hardware.

Staff at The Robert Peel are pictured during the pub's 'Bury week' celebrations.
Dressed as cops and robbers, in reference to the founder of the Metropolitan Police, after whom the pub is named, are (front) shift manager Rob Burgess and team leader Jenny Harvey, with bar associates Simone Burgess and Kieran Murphy behind the bar.
As part of the week-long event, the pub showcased four beers from new Bury-based brewery Brightside Brewing Company, for the first time. The ales served were Brightside best bitter, Darkside stout, Maverick IPA and Solstice golden ale.
Customers could also sample a local dish of black pudding fritters, served with mushy peas.
A charity raffl e had a Bury Football Club shirt and tickets up for grabs. There was a Bury quiz evening – and The Robert Peel took on fellow Bury pub, The Art Picture House in a charity football match.
The week raised £400 for CLIC Sargent and local charity Laura's Wish.

|Home > Server Virtualization > News > Presentations covering impact of cloud and virtualisation on data centre design and delivered at GSIC now available
Virtualization World 365: Server virtualization, hardware consolidation, virtual machines, P2V transformation, physical to virtual transformation
Alongside Panduit, GSIC saw presentations from EMC, IBM and Cisco as well as sessions by the likes of Anixter and Stulz. Delegates at the event received a vision for the future of the data centre with speakers discussing the nature of virtual transformation and how implementations of virtualisation and cloud computing are affecting data centre management, as well as how IP-based physical security and high-speed data transport will be developing across data centre environments.
At the event, which was held in Europe for the first time this year, the speakers outlined the challenges to be overcome in 2012 which include signal transportation, power and cooling systems design, asset tracking across virtual and physical networks and resource planning.
Steve Luczkiw, Vice President for Channels and Strategic Alliances at Panduit commented, "This is the first time we have held this congress in Europe and we exceeded our expectations around attendees and partners coming to the event. The interest that we saw from delegates in how cloud computing and virtualisation are affecting data centre design and infrastructure management reflects the wider trends that Panduit is seeing in the market, as organisations look to achieve greater flexibility and responsiveness from their IT."
"We are taking a very positive message back to our business which we hope will encourage the cultivation of further relationships," said Garry Moulds, Senior Client Development Manager at Redstone. "The delivery of high quality customer service remains paramount to Redstone and that gives us an opportunity to differentiate ourselves above and beyond our immediate competition."
The GSIC conference was hosted in Dubrovnik, Croatia from the 14th to the 17th of November. To access the presentations given at the event, please visit: http://bit.ly/vzzJxp for presentations from days one and two and http://bit.ly/tX8FNz for presentations from days three and four.

Gran Turismo's GT Academy Produces First Major International Win
I wonder if u r an idiot.
Really superb visual appeal on this site, I'd rate it 10 10
I wonder if that Dodge can take any corners...
Yeah, they should be in the high 10's/low 11's at least if they launched them better
Look what launch control and AWD can accomplish.
Both of them suck at driving. But of course the Koeni would win: more hp means higher top speed. I didn't see torque figures, but that would have determined which car should have had the quicker start.
Those wankers don't know how to launch worth a damn. WIth that sort of torque, the best method is launching at idle unless you have some serious clutch skill, or launch control. The Koenigsegg should have annihilated the Viper, and would have if it had had a competent driver at the helm.
Mat you read my mind. A 392 challenger will run a mid to high 12 sec 1/4 mile. So a stock Viper should blow by a 392 1/4 and a supercharged one like Mat said should in the 10's. So they ar fudging about viper being supercharged or they might just be the 2 worst drivers.
wow, those quarter mile times seem pretty high for mega horsepower sportscars. shouldn't these guys be running in the 10s???
This viper is supercharged, its not 600hp because that its stock hp..but more than that
I looked at it a couple of times and the viper didn't do that well either Specially in second when it went side ways and the CCXF had regained traction. After third gear or so the CCXF should have blown pass it like nothing even with a bad start.
Wow I'm actually surprised by how close it was with the difference in horsepower !
So if the Koenigsegg hadn't blown the launch off of the line, I wonder how bad it would've spanked the Viper? And not to trash on the Viper in any way. That is a stupid fast beast of a car. I was impressed how the Koenigsegg reeled in the Viper at the top end of the track.

There have been some great responses to this post so far. Written by parents of sons who will be taught to respect women regardless of appearance. Written by parents of daughters who are taught the meaning of consent, personal accountability and free agency. And since I am not a parent, I thought I'd try and chime in from the perspective of someone who hasn't had a moment to speak out.
Hi. I'm Jia, and I was a fifteen year old slut.
I say that because many would assume as much. I was certainly not a virgin when I got married. In fact, I'd had sex with five men before my wedding day. Four of them before I turned fifteen years old. Before you go back to putting blame on these young girls who dress in revealing clothing and have sex at a young age perhaps you should ask yourself a few questions:
Why are they sexualized at this young of an age?
I can't speak for all the girls in the world, but the first time I had sex taught me that the worth of a woman was in her ability to provoke desire. When I had sex for the first time I learned that my body was not my own to control. It was an object only worthy of lust or shame, sometimes both at the same time.
Is it really your business?
Oops! Now what?
Update: There's a great post at Patheos featuring a lot of amazing responses to the original blog post.

I happened to chance upon a website the other day which looked interesting. Well, at least the landing page was. But the moment I entered the actual website, I was absolutely lost in a flood of information. I did only what any other reasonable human being would do. I closed the site. A marketing brochure that had turned up in my mailbox also met a similar fate. It landed in my trash can for being too verbose. Why do people like to complicate things? If you want to communicate with me, please understand that I don't want to be subjected to long-winded, wordy messages with complicated words.
Communication essentially has three parts – the sender, the message, and the recipient. As the sender, your job is to decide on the communication objective. Please note that this is not to impress me with words. It is about crafting a message that can truly achieve the communication objective. Most communicators miss out on the last part and that is the recipient. If you do not consider me, the recipient, in this entire equation, then the entire exercise is a big waste. So please make sure that I am actually going to be interested in reading what you have to say. If you write too much, make it boring, use jargon, I may just discard your message.
The most important aspect of any communication is to ensure that the recipient is interested in the content and understands the content. Hence, it is imperative that the sender understands his or her target audience first. The message then should be crafted in such a way that it provides the information to the recipient in the most simple, concise and interesting way. So yes, less is definitely more. Avoid complicated terms, use simple language. Move away from generalities, be as specific as possible. And use imagery to connect with the recipient of the information.
In summary, keep the message simple, direct and visual to draw in the recipient and fulfill your communication objective.

Etude House Ice Shot Sleeping Mist Review
Considering how fun, funky, and silly Etude House Ice Shot Freeze Foam is I was preparing myself for Etude House Ice Shot Sleeping Mist being more of the same.
But actually Etude House Ice Shot Sleeping Mist is a little more low key of a product and way more practical.
Take a peek!
Etude House Ice Shot Sleeping Mist is a new cooling jelly-like mist that you can use in the AM or PM to prep skin. Now this isn't a facial mist is the traditional sense of the word as it is NOT a fine mist in the least. If anything it kinda sorta resembles the gelatin-like texture of the Nature Republic Tweety Jelly Moisturizer.
It the bottle it looks sorta solid but it mists out like a heavier facial spray so no worries about it being chunky somehow. It has a rather delightful lemon lime candy scent that's very subtle so I don't think it'll be upsetting to sensitive users.
They recommend it for nightly use but personally I use in the day or the night without an issue. It's basically a glycerin based mist so it gives a nice bit of hydrating that gives skin a soft, supple finish. After application you'll want to gently tap your face so it absorbs fully. It's rather idea for a lightweight moisturizer if you want or to use prior to moisturizer if you're skin is drier. I think "ice shot" is slightly misleading as it isn't terrible cooling unless you pop it in fridge prior to use.
You can use it any numbers of ways but not to set makeup as it is way too thick for that. Typically I apply prior to moisturizer because it helps my skincare to absorb easily or you can use it as a lightweight moisturizer of sorts as well if your skin needs less moisture but needs a little something to allow makeup to apply easier.
Honestly, I think Etude House Ice Shot Sleeping Mist is one of my favorite mists of the moment since it does provide considerably more hydration than any others I've tried or owned in the past so for that along I love it.
One thing I did dislike was the fact that it seems to run out very fast. I've used it for two weeks or so and I'm almost done with the bottle. This is with daily use. Other facial mists I get a way longer time out of them!
Outside of that I must say I Muse Approve this one!
Really liked it!
You can grab it from Sasa.com or E-bayer F2Plus 1 (not affiliated) for fairly close to retail.

your review is kinda tempting me to get it!! But i have a sensitive skin and often tends to breakout, would glycerin aggravate breakouts??
8/29/13 2:02 sparklyblind:
Asian brands, especially Japanese really seem to work the best w my skin. I also worry about breakouts overload but these brands seem to really often be geared towards those of us prone to breakouts from both oily troublesome skin but also sensitive and allergic, and I'm both- dairy DESTROYS my skin all over, not just my face and I'm getting more and more allergic to more products as well as foods the older I get, too
But, "YAAAYYY!!" Thank you, again for showcasing our prospects, Muse! It's quite very Lovely<3
8/13/13 3:49 Angel:
Pure Canada Ice!!! You can never have too much LOL!
8/29/13 1:57 sparklyblind:
Hhhmm, this IS tempting! I'm all about mists these past few years, before I admit I thought they were just a waste of money and not another thing to have to spend $$$ on. But since I became allergic to dairy it took 2+ yrs to discover just wth was destroying my skin all over, especially my face, I've rehauled nearly everything in my face care routine. This lemonlime candy is a definite favorite yum scent of mine! I really would like to give this a try and also look into the other product of their's that you reviewed.
A jelly-like mist? Hhhmm, seems interesting, definitely new, did you ever have any issues w the spray clogging from this sort of texture, Muse? Plus, Asian brands, especially Japanese really seem to work the best w my skin. I also worry about breakouts overload but these brands seem to really often be geared towards those of us prone to breakouts from both oily troublesome skin but also sensitive and allergic, and I'm both, so "YAAYY!!" Thanks FOR ALWAYS NOT JUST "TEMPTING US, MUSE, BUT YOU REALLY DO HELP US when we really need solutions
I like (I'm sure I'm mispelling this brand somehow) Icelandic Skyn's mist, it's not a fine, lovely mist like Caudalie (which I also adore but wow does that price keep jumping!!) Skin Icelandic mist is touted a a vitamin dose to use daily but honestly, it seems like a sort of spray on cleanser. I don't get trouble if I leave it on overnight even though it's quite thick in my opinion and even sort of "foams" up if you spray to cover face and neck without wanting to touch your face due to dirty hands worries. Also, it smells EXACTLY like their pre-moistened facial wipe clothes which I also love, and I REALLY LOVE their product appropriately named The Antidote for gentle clearing, decongesting, light moisture, nutrients, AND OMG- it actually DOES COOL!!
I wish these companies cooling mists claims were more accurate, Caudalie is the only mist to ever be cooling in my uses.
(But HEY!! btw about Caudalie- I found a great use, aside from cooling/EVERYTHING, ha … it seems very wasteful but when you're in bed, sick and totaly ALARMED at the sudden site of a swarm of ants… long story…. I had my Easter Basket close by w me…) Caudalie spray is a SERIOUS and ALL NATURAL ant repellant! Sounds crazy but obviously it will kill them, but if you take action BEFORE and spray where you know ants like to try to invade each Summer it keeps them AWAY for seriously months!! I think it's the oils, they can't walk in it, idk. But even the scent of it will keep them away! I keep my old, used but still scented bottles as well as the caps just placed strategically about. This sounds so silly and any1 reading will prob never think of Caudalies Beauty Elixer mist the same again, hopefully they'll see it's even greater than they already knew! Maybe the will first hv to encounter the scent followed by it's negative affects on them to remember exactly hoe great it works to keep them away once, but once they do… they remember for years! I swear it's like they tell their kids or something. Crazy to talk about on Muse's site and sorry about this, but if anybody is like me and just CANNOT EVER be exposed to the "normal" cleaners, repellants, etc. even just a whiff and I hv a disabling migraine, try a spritz or 2 of this magic stuff and if ants usually try to invade, they will stop, it even stops them from trying to enter from another angle in the vicinty of at least the size of a bedroom!! )
But, yes, I'm getting into mists ALOT these past 2yrs since my skin decided to just freakout and never stopped. Finally I was able to discover I had developed a reaction to dairy, it affects all of my skin but of course we must show our best face so it was TERRIBLE. It actually finally caused me to DESPERATELY break down and buy a FEW SK-II products and wow did they deliver, FINALLY!! I wish I had those 2yrs worth of $$$ I'd wasted to collect a few more SK-II items, but the 1 thing I hv not seen from them is a mist so I really am trying alot of mists and just lighter, outright liquid products after seeing how great the mostly liquid/very SK-II items I chose work.

Fundraising efforts at The Union Rooms have smashed the Plymouth pubs target.
The pub staged a charity fundraiser fun day, with local businesses and arts and crafts companies selling their products. There was also a visit from Dartmoor Zoo, bringing along insects and reptiles, for the youngsters.
Staff also took part in a sponsored exercise bike ride (pictured), cycling the equivalent distance from Lands End to John O'Groats (874 miles) on four machines at the pub.
Cash collections in the run-up to the event, as well as a raffle, raised £4,723 for CLIC Sargent.

London's Poverty Profile has been created by one of the London's largest charitable funders, Trust for London, and the independent think tank, New Policy Institute.
Overview of London boroughs
Posted on 17 October 2013
The table brings together the borough level indicators in the report. For each indicator, the four boroughs with the highest level are coloured red. The next four are orange, the next eight are amber and the remaining 16 are light yellow. So the darker the colours, the deeper the problems.
What stands out from this grid is that the Eastern parts of London have the most severe problems. There is a much clearer East/West divide than an Inner/Outer one. In particular, with the exception of the inequality indicators, the Inner West has few dark colours. By contrast, the Outer East & North East and Inner East & South has many.
The final column looks at how boroughs have changed overtime relative to one another (focusing on indicators 1, 2, 4, 15 and 17, which allow a direct time comparison). The green indicates boroughs that have seen a relative improvement and red indicates a worsening: the darker the colour the greater the change.
It shows boroughs in the Inner East & South have experienced the greatest improvements, so despite having a lot of dark red, things there are getting better. The boroughs that have fallen are in the Outer East & North East, where many indicators are now poor, but also part of the Outer West & North West too.
Start exploring the indicators in this grid.
Find out more about indicators relevant to particular boroughs.

1,000 years ago Earth colonized the planet Charm. But the population of Charm is now far removed from their ancient ancestors. Technology has been lost over the years but the people have something better--Magic! Charm is a world covered by volcanoes, each erupting a different color of magic. Everything within a particular Chroma becomes that color. Plants, animals, insects, and even humans all become one color and can perform that color of magic. Traveling is dangerous because a person leaving their native Chroma home can no longer perform their color magic. Havoc is a barbarian living in a non-Chroma village, where no one has magic. As a boy, he rescued a dragon that rewarded him with special magic; to sense pending danger. His gift becomes more valuable than he can imagine as he is suddenly drafted and forced to become the new king of the planet. He must perform his duties or be executed for treason. To make matters worse, the assassin who killed the former king is now after Havoc!

Coast Guard summons 2 ship captains after Cavite collision-A A +A
Monday, March 17, 2014
AUTHORITIES probing the collision of an unknown ship and a fishing vessel summoned the ship captains off two cargo vessel that reportedly passed by the area of incident off the coast of Ternate, Cavite.
The Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) summoned the skippers of M/V Galaxy-Kalikasan and M/V Ocean Hope after data recording from the Vessel Traffic Management System (VTMS) of the Port of Manila revealed that they are the two vessels that passed through the area where F/B Israel-G reportedly sank between 11 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. of March 12, said PCG Public Affairs chief Commander Armando Balilo.
As of Monday, divers from the Coast Guard Special Operations Group (CGSOG) have already retrieved six bodies, all crew members of the ill-fated fishing vessel. Four other fishermen remain missing.
Meanwhile, rescue divers on Sunday failed to re-float the sunken vessel due to the lack of visibility beneath the sea surface. CGSOG personnel will once again attempt to re-float the vessel on Monday.
Balilo said that there is high possibility that the remaining missing fishermen were trapped inside the vessel.
F/B Dan Israel-G was reportedly carrying 23 fishermen when it collided with an unidentified cargo vessel last Wednesday evening.
Rescue teams were busy still bringing in several drums and would fill it up with air that would be used to re-float the fishing vessel. (Sunnex)

Diamondback Mason FS Pro 29er Mountain Bike - 2014The 2014 Diamondback Mason FS Pro is an unquestionably competition ready all-mountain renegade that is donned to the nines with race-level components. Engineers at Diamondback sought to deliver a full suspension 29er with slung back geometry that preserves optimal speed and efficiency while boasting amazing handling and ridiculous downhill ability.
Mason FS Pro's frame is made from lightweight butted 6061 aluminum, the industry's go-to material for many high-end road and mountain race bikes, adored for its shape-ability, amazing strength, and resistance to corrosion. The geometry is likened to that of a downhill bike, but with just the right attention paid to the wants of XC riders coupled with the Fox Float CTD rear shock--the result is a frame that is versatile enough to go enduro, XC, all-mountain, and even some pretty extreme freeriding. To accompany this, Mason FS Pro needed plenty of strength and plenty of travel up front as well, so the choice was the Fox 34 Float CTD fork which boasts beefed up stations over their 32 offering, a whopping 140mm of travel and a 15mm quick release thru-axle. Translation: very solid downhill and cross-country control that absorbs jumps and obstacles relentlessly with no fear of breaking under extreme pressure.
As an additional measure for weight reduction and all-mountain competitiveness, Mason FS Pro's designers chose a simple 1 x 10 drivetrain powered by a SRAM X1 X-Sync 11-speed crank and a SRAM X7/X9 shifter/derailleur setup. The promise of this configuration is smooth, instantaneous shifting in any conditions for any situation. Conventional wisdom amongst Diamondback's all-mountain riders who exist in the truly all-mountain environs of the Pacific Northwest is that the need for multiple front shifting options does not exist. A 32t front ring and an 11-36t SRAM cassette give you all the climbing and accelerating power you need--essentially, if you're in it for real all-mountain action, gravity will give you plenty of momentum for those insane top speeds you crave.
AVID Elixir XO Hydraulic Disc feature huge 200mm front and 180mm rear rotors to provide some of the best stopping and modulation the industry has to offer. They're also designed to stave off brake fade that lesser brake systems succumb to under extreme downhill/high rotor heat situations--Elixer XOs deliver in all conditions. Add in a slew of high-performing alloy parts such as Raceface Atlas handlebars and stem, and roll it all on a super light, super strong alloy Easton Haven wheelset with Kenda Nevegal tires, and the promise is a life-changing transformation to your all-mountain experience .
- 6061 weapons grade aluminum frame is light, strong, fast, and has ideal all-mountain geometry and 140mm of rear suspension travel
- Slung-back frame geometry brings true all-mountain climbing and descending action
- Fox Float Rear suspension features Climb/Trail/Adjust feature so you can dominate any terrain
- 140mm travel Fox 34 Float is ready for any downhill, any obstacle, any terrain, any abuse
- A 1x10 SRAM XO/X1 rear derailleur/crank setup is simple and provides effortless shifting and plenty of gearing options for tough up and down trails
- Avid Elixir XO hydraulic disc brakes with huge rotors provide superior stopping and excellent modulation
- 29" wheels surmount obstacles easily, provide great efficiency, and have low rolling resistance

NYPD Memo Directs Officers To Provide Narrative Description For Every Stop and Frisk
City lawyers in the class-action suit challenging the constitutionality of the NYPD's stop and frisk tactic revealed a new memo on Tuesday requiring officers to expand the amount of information included on department logs.
Attorneys for the plaintiffs said they've been trying to get the NYPD to provide more information about each stop since the suit was filed five years ago. Without it, they argue, it's difficult to determine if an officer has enough reasonable suspicion to legally detain someone. It was dated March 5, 2013, the day after Lead attorney Darius Charney with the Center for Constitutional Rights said a brief was filed with the court asking for various changes to the NYPD's practices.
"It's gamesmanship pure and simple. You know, you wait till the eve of trial to all of a sudden to say, 'hey, we're gonna change the way we do things,'" remarked Charney, outside the courthouse. He also alleges the memo is an attempt by the city to avoid any court-mandated remedies.
But city lawyers said the memo was merely a reinforcement of existing policy since the department's patrol guide already advises officers to enter relevant details about stops in their activity log. Most of the information gathered on the department's UF 250 forms consists of checked off boxes. The memo, issued to commanding officers of all patrol boroughs, directs them to ensure that a narrative description is attached to that form explaining the circumstances. For example, if "furtive movements" is checked, the memo states that they must describe the particular way the suspect was moving.
During the trial, officers have testified that they sometimes don't record a great deal of information in their activity logs, saying the practice is a guideline rather than a requirement.
Federal District Court Judge Shira Scheindlin ruled the document could be introduced into evidence later in the trial when its author, Chief of Patrol James Hall, testifies.
