Tri Deltas Mark 40 Years of Supporting Children
Posted By titel On April 15, 2011 @ 10:25 am In Spring 2011, The Greater Good | No Comments
The longest-running fundraising event for the Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt is the Eve of Janus, which celebrated its 40th year last summer. Through the years this Nashville tradition has raised more than $3 million for the Tri Delta Pediatric Hematology Oncology Clinic. Funds from the annual Eve of Janus Ball go directly to support research, education and patient care.
Three energetic Nashville Tri Delta alumnae—Patsy White Bradshaw, BA'63; Mary Ann Braden Chaffin, BA'61; and Sandra Murray Polk, BA'63—launched the event in 1970. In large part because of the Nashville chapter's efforts to raise funds to support pediatric cancer research, the Delta Delta Delta national fraternity adopted childhood cancer as its philanthropic project nationwide.
To ensure that the Tri Delta legacy endures, the Tri Delta Pediatric Cancer Endowed Research Fund was established in March at the School of Medicine. The fund celebrates the organization's 40 years of support for Children's Hospital and the Pediatric Hematology Oncology program.
The Tri Delta Pediatric Hematology Oncology Clinic of Children's Hospital is a highly specialized medical facility offering comprehensive treatment to children with cancer and blood diseases. The emphasis is on family-centered, exceptional patient care and on "translational research," where innovative therapies are rapidly brought to the bedside.
One in every 330 Americans develops cancer before the age of 20. Although cure rates are up, the incidence of cancer continues to rise in all ages and in all racial and ethnic subgroups—especially among adolescents.

From a column for the January 30 print edition of The Washington Times:
What is easy to verify is how soft the Obama administration continues to be on terrorists. No waterboarding (not even when a grubby bewhiskered terrorist clearly needs a bath), no harsh questioning. No fair treating such a soldier of Allah like FDR was willing to treat a soldier of the Nazis or a Shinto warrior during World War II.

On Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor, host Bill O'Reilly and Fox News host Megyn Kelly claimed that President Obama "made a mistake" when he criticized the Supreme Court's decision in Citizens United v. FEC, asserting that it's "not true" the decision would, in Obama's words, "open the floodgates for special interests -- including foreign corporations -- to spend without limit in our elections." But, in fact, four Supreme Court justices agreed in their opinion that the decision "would appear to afford the same protection to multinational corporations controlled by foreigners as to individual Americans" to make certain election-related expenditures.
From the January 27 New York Post:
Whose side is the Justice Department on: America's -- or the terrorists'?
It's just insane that a lawyer who defended Osama bin Laden's driver and bodyguard -- and who sought constitutional rights for terrorists -- could be one of the Obama administration's top legal officials.
Lawmakers on Capitol Hill are hopping mad about the situation -- and rightly so. Months ago, Senate Judiciary Committee member Charles Grassley asked Attorney General Eric Holder to disclose who in the administration had previously represented or agitated for alleged terrorists.
The AG's reply?
"I will consider that request."
Holder must be thinking long and hard -- because committee members have yet to receive a response.
Meanwhile, they've started asking other questions of Justice -- like who came up with the brilliant idea to Mirandize undie-bomber Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, limiting the amount of intelligence he might provide about al Qaeda and future attacks.
With high-profile terror cases coming up -- like Abdulmutallab's, and the outrageous Khalid Sheik Mohammed trial in New York -- Americans need to know: Is our government putting in a good-faith effort when it comes to punishing the men who want to blow up our people?
The call to treat terrorists like civilians in court has been all Team Obama.
Which means the president and his administration also owe the American people an answer: Is the government's prosecutorial deck stacked in favor of the terrorists?
A Justice Department spokesman, Dean Boyd, tells The Post that the department will be responding to Sen. Grassley's request "very soon."
Will it be soon enough?
It's time for Holder and Justice to come clean.
On January 25, Bill O'Reilly falsely equated the waterboarding of detainees by U.S. interrogators with the training U.S. soldiers undergo. In fact, officials familiar with both the techniques used in harsh interrogations and those used in military training programs have said that such a comparison is false; those who undergo certain interrogation techniques in such training programs are aware that there are safeguards and know they can stop the training immediately if necessary.

The Washington Times attacked the Obama White House in an editorial for supposedly interfering in a voter intimidation case against members of the New Black Panther Party.

In a post on Tucker Carlson's The Daily Caller, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and National Review Online's Andrew McCarthy defended their debunked claims that President Obama has given Interpol broad powers to investigate U.S. citizens without being limited by the Constitution. In fact, according to the head of Interpol -- whose factual statements Gingrich and McCarthy don't refute -- the organization does not have traditional police powers; additionally, Interpol was already granted immunity from lawsuits by President Reagan.

Conservative media figures, including Rush Limbaugh and Jim Hoft, have suggested that the recent escape of three prisoners from the privately managed Tri-County Detention Center in Illinois demonstrates that Guantánamo detainees should not be moved to Illinois' Thomson Correctional Center, as the Obama administration has proposed. But federal officials have stated their intention to enhance the Thomson facility's security to levels exceeding that of the Supermax prison in Colorado, which currently holds numerous terrorists and from which there has never been an escape; moreover, a 2001 Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) study found that privately managed prisons have higher escape rates than federal prisons.

Rugby shirts should be a staple in everyone's wardrobe, whether male or female. It's like a polo shirt and a a crewneck mated and spawned the rubgy, the liger of collared tees. They are great to wear for those "in between" fashion situations. For example, let's look at Thanksgiving dinner: you don't want to look like a slob in front of your family, but you definitely don't want to overdress either. Wearing a rugby will give you a refined, casual look, and simultaneously quell all of grandma's fears about your life trajectory.
Keeping your grandma in mind, we found the cleanest rugby shirts on Karmaloop so you could get a head start. Now worry about how to explain that "strong" smell that keeps coming from your room.
Here are the 3 cleanest Rugby shirts on Karmaloop right now.
1. 10 Deep Nightfall Rugby
Fresh from their winter collection, 10 Deep gives us this crazy dope new shirt. Featuring their signature floral print in the center, this rugby has all the styling of a classic Ralph Lauren piece with a modern twist.
2. Crooks and Castles NCL Rugby
Now this is dope. Playing off the classic American flag color palette, Crooks hits us with a bold shirt that can work in nearly any occasion. Featuring their fictional "Strikers" pennant on the front, this shirt will lead you to more victories than losses. Quote us on that.
3. Billionaire Boys Club Gamo Rugby
We just can't stop posting BBC. This piece caught our attention because of the full sleeve camo pattern; we've never seen that on a polo shirt before.

Price seemingly connected with Smith just inside the Cardinal 35-yard-line, which would have given Washington a first down facing a 31-28 deficit.Officials reviewed the play, however, and determined that Smith trapped the ball on the ground. Thus, the catch was ruled an incompletion, and the Huskies turned the ball over to Stanford on downs, ending UW's shot at an upset bid.Good call? Bad call?

Surfing Over Hawaii
By W. KNOX RICHARDSON
having never flown himself, fifteenth-century inventor Leonardo da Vinci wrote,
"For once you have tasted flight, you will walk the earth with your eyes
turned skyward; for there you have been, and there you long to return."
If you merge
the contemporary designs of Leonardo's gliders and parachutes, you'll find
the result is the modern paraglider. With its parachute-like, fabric airfoil and
suspended cord harness, by all accounts Leonard foresaw the paraglider, a kind
of ribless kite for carrying people, an enhanced rip-stop nylon canopy wing
combining the sciences of hand gliding, parachuting and ballooning.
seen them flying with their colorful canopies, pilots hanging beneath, turning
effortlessly with the winds, climbing, spiraling and landing softly, perfectly
still, on tip toe like a ballet dancer. Flying from Kokohead crater, Makapuu
Point and Waimanalo, and on up the Windward side to Kahana Bay, and over to
Nanakuli near Dillingham Airfield on the North Shore. Today, paragliders are
considered legal aircraft and are regulated in air by the FAA via self-governing
training and member associations and on the ground by the state.
In the early
1980s, the first paraglider pilots were European mountaineers in the French Alps
who wanted a faster and safer way down off the peaks. Within a few years,
paragliders flew on the Windward coast of Oahu. Today with tens of thousands of
pilots worldwide, Oahu boasts of around three-dozen active, certified
paragliders and pilots.
Da Vinci's
quote from 1484 is like a mantra to paraglider pilots, gracing more than one
tee-shirt at a recent gathering of the Hawaii Paragliding Association (HPA), the
Oahu-based nationally recognized club for paraglider pilots and host to dozens
of adventure travel visitors from around the world.
like surfing, though you're chasing the wind not waves. It's 21-century
technology meets Greek mythology," said Pete Michelmore, owner of Gravity
Hawaii, Oahu's only permanent, full-time paraglider training company. "You
follow the wind, travel the world and fly up and down rugged coastlines. It's
very much like surfing that way."
costs less money and offers more payback than most adventure sports like trail
biking, skydiving or scuba – all of which impose some risk to your person. The
returns generally outweigh the known risks – which are minimized with proper
training, equipment and experience, and with a safety-first approach to the
"The first
flight tells everything," said paraglider master instructor Michelmore, a former
Army paratrooper who took up paragliding 18 years ago. "If they don't become
addicted to the experience right then, they probably won't go forward with
The first
paragliding experience is a ride with an instructor known as a tandem flight.
The instructor – who has hundreds of hours of flying experience and advanced
training — flies a glider that is built for two persons and can handle more
than a 500-pound payload. Here, the passenger is attached to a harness right in
front of the instructor. After a brief introduction and a safety briefing, the
instructor manages the take off and landing, but in the air the student pilot
can take control of the brakes and steer the paraglider getting to experience
soaring in a paraglider first hand.
skydiving and bungee jumping, there is no big "G" rush that one gets when
jumping out of an airplane or off a cliff. In paragliding, the pilot takes a few
quick steps toward the wind. As the canopy inflates overhead and catches the
breeze, the pilot is gently lifted off the ground and is already flying before
the ground begins to fall away.
ask if flying is scary. I always admit that it is scary for me - it's a rare
flight when I'm not at least a little scared about something, said Alex Colby,
an Oahu paraglider pilot and president of the HPA. Colby, a software design
engineer by profession, admits he is more fearful that most, but that after time
and training, such fears are reduced to safety concerns one normally controls as
a trained and experienced pilot.
"As to why
people want to fly - I don't know for certain. For me, flying paragliders was
the fulfillment of a half-baked childhood dream of taking to the air on some
home-made contraption," Colby said. "I was surprised to discover that flying
was largely about exploring another realm, learning to navigate safely the
powerful and mostly invisible world of air currents and convection and
micrometeorology, thermals and lift and rotor turbulence."
According to
both Colby and Michelmore, the minimum physical requirements for a new pilot is
the ability to hike an about 15 minutes up a fairly steep path carrying about 40
pounds on your back. Most of the flying on Oahu involves at least some hiking.
New students
find that the most physically demanding part is just learning to control your
canopy on the ground, Colby said. They spend many hours strapped into their gear
on a windy day in the beach park, learning to steer and move around naturally
while keeping the wing overhead.
flying itself isn't very strenuous at all - launching, flying and landing can
be done by a person in any physical condition," he said.
program includes almost 50 hours of ground training before solo. Ground handling
under canopy is also known as kiting as your feet don't leave the ground, but
it exposes the student to all types of winds and situations. Typically after
four to five weeks of ground handling, the student is towed into the sky for a
few low-to-ground flights and easily controlled landings.
with some wind-sports experience, such as sailing or wind surfing, often
complete training faster.
"First we
walk, then we dance and finally we run, then it's time for your first solo
flight," Michelmore said. First solo flights usually occur near Lanakai where
you launch at the top of a hill, gently following the contour only few feet off
the ground until you land at large field below. After some additional
instruction, you're signed off as a novice pilot for regular solo flights.
completion of our program the student pilot will be able to handle almost any
flying situation they may encounter in their flying career," Michelmore added.
The total cost for a training program from tandem to first solo is less than
$2,000. A complete rig with all necessary equipment starts at about $1500 for a
serviceable used outfit. New equipment can run up to $5000 or more for custom
and extra large rigs.
A normal
solo flight can last an hour or more, depending upon conditions including the
pilot's personal comfort. Without an engine and propeller to drive the
aircraft forward and provide wind over the wings, the paraglider uses natural
lift found on the windward side of mountains, and from thermals, rising currents
of air warmed by the heat of the earth. Cross-country flights of 15 to 30 miles
occur with regular frequency.
resident Bob Johnson is a local film production executive and recently certified
pilot who has been flying paragliders for about one year.
I thought I might like about paragliding has been borne out. The one thing I
hadn't counted on is haw many new friends I would make in short order,"
Johnson said. "Paragliding pilots come from a broad spectrum, rich and poor,
blue and white collar. As diverse as we are, we all have a strong passion in
common and there is always something to talk about."
Among the 70
or more certified paragliders residing in Hawaii, pilots' backgrounds are as
diverse as the local population. Paragliders include airline pilots, former
politicians, leading businessmen, filmmakers, tradesmen, academics, software
engineers, surfers and even a descendent of King Kalakaua. On Oahu there are
about 50 members in the local association, with about 30 of them being active
Thanks to
advanced design tools,paraglider technology is as good as any aircraft. Testing
of equipment is rigorous and materials quality is as good as the best boat sails
or parachutes.
paragliding is safer than any other extreme sport and 18 times safer than
mountain biking," Michelmore offered. Of course, no sport is perfect. Tree
landings are generally considered the worst situation one might find themselves
in. Hiking out of the jungle comes in a close second.
landings are bad because get your cell phone wet and you have clean your
equipment," he joked. With proper training, equipment, boots and helmets, the
sport is much safer than any other free flight sport, such as hang gliding or
paragliders on Oahu are afternoon pilots who — like surfers heading to the
beach after work — find themselves flying late into the day..
"Surfing is crowded with
sometimes 40 or 50 other wave riders out there, often bickering and all vying
for the same waves," Michelmore said. "The sky just doesn't get that

I purchased one of these about 8 months ago when replacing an old speaker in my Peavey TNT 150 cab, cab is 125 watts at 4 ohms. Ran the eminence basslite c2515 just like the old speaker was. blew in month and a half. Figuring that i did something wrong and seeing how many ppl loved these ordered another, placed that one in a single 15 cab ran with a Peavey Mark Bass 3 (210 Watts @4 Ohms), that speaker lasted almost 3 months untill poof....just stopped. had that one professionally installed and checked to make sure there were no faults by me. 2 bad speakers...one very unhappy bassist...beware buyers lighter might mean less to carry, but also the less it can handle also

I bought this speaker for a custom cab built for the GK 800RB. It's a 4-ohm speaker so I was able to get all of the low end power into one cab. This plus the neodymium magnet greatlly increased portability. The speaker is rated at 300 watts, but I have pumped about 400 through it and it just keeps going. This is a very high-quality and great sounding speaker.

I blew the speaker in my Hartke 1x15 Transporter cabinet the first time I turned it up and dropped this one in as a replacement... no comparison at all!! Sounds way better, (fuller range, more top end and smoother bottom), and is WAY lighter to boot! Good Stuff / Highly recommended!!

Mother isn't exactly tied to a specific period of time, i.e. it's just a modern age sitcom and it wouldn't be much of a hassle to set a show about 10 years ago to keep it in continuity with the original show,
Actually, it is. The narration is taking place in the year 2030. Each episode (when it airs) takes place in the contemporary; i.e., the Halloween episode last year takes place chronologically on Halloween in the year 2012. The year is referenced numerous times, for example in a recent episode Ted says "Kids, in the Winter of 2013"...

I could see this working next season if they change things up and continue to tell Ted's story after he met the Mother, and then have the Mother tell flashbacks to times they almost crossed paths (using the show's convention of flashbacks within flashbacks, since the entire show is technically a "flashback".) But not for a whole new series.

Marsha Anderson-Shearen described a rush of emotions upon seeing the last Ford Ranger pickup drive off the St. Paul plant's line Friday morning.
That Ranger was the last vehicle built at Ford Motor Co.'s Twin Cities Assembly Plant, closing after 86 years of churning out first Model Ts, then Model As, and finally pickups. About 800 employees are affected.
"It was hard to choke back the tears," said Anderson-Shearen, 53, who was leaving the plant for the last time after 21 years of work. "You'd go from happy to sad."
"It's a sad day in St. Paul," Mayor Chris Coleman said. "There's incredible history between St. Paul and the Ford plant and all the folks that worked there over the years."
After their morning duties were wrapped up, many workers gathered nearby at Tiffany Sports Lounge on Ford Parkway, where the barroom atmosphere around 10 a.m. felt more like 10 p.m.
Outside, Darrell Owen, who had worked at Ford for four years, smoked a cigarette and said he thinks the closing will hit hard Monday morning when he and his former colleagues don't have to get ready for another day at the plant.
"I feel bad, but I do have the option to transfer to another plant," said Owen, 43, of St. Paul, who hasn't decided whether he'll make the move to a plant in Louisville, Ky.
About two-thirds of the plant's workers can transfer out of state, though the company doesn't yet know how many will do so, said Marcey Evans, a Ford spokeswoman.
The buyout packages for those eligible for retirement are a $50,000 bonus for eligible production employees and a $100,000 bonus for skilled trades.
Darren Jacobson, a 19-year employee who lives in Hammond, Wis., plans to look for work, though he's not sure what to expect in this economy. He remembers the warnings he heard when he started working at Ford nearly two decades ago.
"People would say, 'This place is closing. I don't know why you stay here,' " Jacobson recalled. "Then you work five or 10 years and get comfortable."
The sense of loss feels similar to losing a family member, said Jim Eagle, chairman of United Auto Workers Local 879.
"I think what's kept people going is their pride," said Eagle, 62, who is considering whether to transfer or retire.
Eagle drove the last Ranger pickup off the line. It was bought by Orkin, the pest control company, for its fleet, Evans said.
There was a lot of picture taking and hugging to mark the last vehicle made in St. Paul.
Meanwhile, near the plant's entrance, neighbors and local businesspeople held up signs thanking Ford workers for their efforts, while saying they were sad to see such jobs go.
Katherine Werner, who lives on Cretin Avenue, organized the effort in honor of her late grandfather, Bill Priglmeier, who worked at the plant.
"These kinds of factories were the last good employers for a person with just a high school diploma," Werner said.
Werner's sister, Karen Johnson, said she wanted to help thank the workers and honor an era when hard work resulted in good pay and benefits.
"A lot of people have lost faith," she said. "Are upper management just out for themselves and making profit, or do they care about the average worker? I don't know."
Anderson-Shearen, the 21-year plant veteran, is considering retiring or taking a transfer. She's been saving for years and feels like one of the lucky ones because she has options.
"There have been a lot of people hurt by this," she said.
Ford announced the December shutdown a couple of months ago. The Dearborn, Mich.-based company is discontinuing the Ranger line in the United States. The reason: Industry observers say the company wants to emphasize the more fuel-efficient versions of the larger F-150 truck.
In 2006, Ford said the plant would close in 2008 as part of an aggressive plan to cut its excess manufacturing capacity and slash thousands of jobs.
The company offered buyouts of up to $140,000. Some 1,600 St. Paul workers signed up for one of eight buyout options, and the plant eliminated its night shift.
In 2007, the company agreed to keep the plant open until sometime in 2009 under a deal with the United Auto Workers, after union officials learned Ford was making money on the Ranger in part because of lower-cost workers.
Of the 925 remaining workers, about two-thirds were temporary workers making about $20 an hour, $10 less than the permanent employees.
In 2008, Ford said it would extend the plant's life to 2011, as rising fuel costs created demand for the compact pickup. State and local officials unsuccessfully made pitches to keep the plant open beyond this year.
Ford hopes to sell the site, but there are no firm development plans.

Did Americans help plot Kenya terror attack?

Al-Qaida affiliate claiming responsibility actively recruits in U.S.
Sept. 23, 2013
Just a day after Muslim terrorists stormed a shopping mall in Kenya, killing at least 68, the Taliban is suspected of orchestrating a suicide bomb attack on an historic church in Pakistan, killing at least 78.
Hundreds more were injured in the attacks that began midday yesterday in Nairobi, Kenya.
The latest attack this morning in Peshawar, Pakistan, occurred as hundreds of worshipers were coming out of the church in the city's Kohati Gate district after services to get a free meal of rice offered on the front lawn, said a top government administrator, Sahibzada Anees.
"There were blasts and there was hell for all of us," Nazir John, who was at the church with at least 400 other worshipers, told the Associated Press. "When I got my senses back, I found nothing but smoke, dust, blood and screaming people. I saw severed body parts and blood all around."

Super Junior – M's Breakdown0
Super Junior M stands for "Mandarin" another Sub-unit from the group Super Junior which is made up of the select members who can and are native mandarin speakers.
After the group released their single Break Down in China. SJ-M again, released a single with the same title, but this time with a new feeling and sound, Last January 3O, 2013 the group unveiled Break Down Korean version through YouTube, and as new as it is, some fans find the new version more appealing while some preferred the original tune.
Both versions has its different vibe and sting. Since it was originally made for the Chinese fans and the it was first released in Mandarin, the first version was more likable and upbeat to listeners, however the Korean version is less awkward to listen to, maybe because of the boys are using their native language this time. Nonetheless both versions satisfyingly and tastefully furnished.

Venus in Furs (1870)
by Leopold von Sacher-Masoch
Erotic Fiction (16)
A Novel Cure (520)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Due to the study « Psychopathia sexualis » of the German psychiatrist Richard von Krafft-Ebing, « Venus im Pelz » came into an unwarranted imbalance. More than a hundred years after this novel was written, there is a broad knowledge regarding the different types of sexual experiences. Deviations of the so called « Normal » are of low social acceptance. But persons, who like to play sexual games, will have no scruples trying out the harmless proposals given by Ritter Leopold.
Review contains spoilers
Venus in furs was originally published in 1870. I'm unsure when the translation I read was published, but there's an introduction dated 1921, so maybe that is an indication. It never ceases to amaze me how modern in language and treatment theme older novels can be. Having said that, some themes in the novel seem antiquated to modern western society.
I understand the term masochism was inspired by the author's name. The type of masochism and sadism the main characters in the novel exhibit is based on an entirely different underlying premise now than it was then. Whereas Severin and Wanda are proclaimed to be naturally at war as a result of their being of the opposite sexes, and this situation is seen as fixed until in a changed society men and women are given equal opportunities and treatment in daily life and in their upbringing and education, for most societies nowadays, this equality of the genders is a fact of life. To submit to another's dominance or sadism thus takes on an entirely flavour for modern masochist/submissive than it did in Von Sacher-Masoch's time.
What makes the novel even more amazing, is that it is the male Severin who wishes to submit to the female Wanda, and that she, for various reasons, agrees to dominate him. Both characters step out of society's expected gender roles, and assume the opposite roles. Not easily however; there is lots of soul searching, doubts, uncertainty, fear, on both sides both before and during their enterprising scheme. And afterwards, all doubts are miraculously 100% removed. Wanda has submitted to her new lover Alexis. Severin is entirely cured of his masochistic wishes and in his newer contacts he assumes a domineering role.
The 'bdsm' portrayed in this novel is of the experimental kind. Nothing safe, sane, consensual here. The mention of elements like ownership, total power exchange, kneeling, serving another, whipping will not surprise the reader of a modern bdsm novel. And I shouldn't wonder if this is the novel we have to thank for the notion of a 'slavery contract', including a need for ritualistic signing and negotiations on the terms of the contract. The slave contract drawn up is a hardcore contract. Severin agrees to even lose his life should Wanda wish it so. Gasp. Several other hair raising, skin crawling elements are presented more or less casually as well. Would modern masochist like to be whipped till it bled, for instance? I don't think so.
Wanda in fact may be the most interesting character in the novel. I'm unclear as to her motivation for agreeing to dominate Severin. She seems to be enjoying herself rather too much at several points to believe that assuming this role is a playful experiment for her, or just a way to fight boredom and amuse herself, or even to set out to 'cure' Severin of this needs, as she declares later. She brings to her role enough imagination and stamina to question her statement at several places that she does not want to dominate but seeks to be dominated herself in a relationship.
What also makes this novel different from most modern bdsm novels is that the main characters do not have sex with each other. She wears furs, he sometimes tries to kiss her feet, he bathes her once, but nothing more. For the larger part of time they interact like chaste friends, or brother and sister, discussing art, literature, taking long walks. So wholesome!
The writing style and tempo of the novel are excellent. There is some repetition of thoughts, premises, sentences. So much so that the novel begins and ends with the same thought. Leaving this reader with the suspicion that the rationale for writing the novel was not to publish a raunchy tale about masochism and dominance, but to promote equality between genders.
"You interest me. Most men are very commonplace, without verve or poetry. In you there is a certain depth and capacity for enthusiasm and a deep seriousness, which delight me. I might learn to love you." (20)
This line really jumped out at me, because it's just what I imagine a lot of nerds imagine some lady will say to them some day. And they'll be like yeah! I have a depth and capacity for enthusiasm! I was just waiting for someone to notice! I bet nerds really like this book, which was written by a nerd and then translated to English by a different nerd.
You know that old defunct Tumblr, "Nice Guys Of OK Cupid"? It was a collection of dating profiles from guys who were all "I'm so nice, why don't any women love me? I would treat a woman like a goddess but I guess they don't want to be treated like goddesses, they all want some asshole instead! Women are such bitches, because they don't love me!"
Masoch can't stop quoting this one line from Goethe, "You must be hammer or anvil." He thinks that "Woman demands that she can look up to a man, but one like [our dorktagonist Severin] who voluntarily places his neck under foot, she uses as a welcome plaything, only to toss it aside when she is tired of it." (105)
The problem here isn't with Severin's (or Masoch's) particular fetish, which is to have ladies whip them. That's fine, man, have your fun. The problem is that he extends it to some kind of conclusion about human nature that's not at all true. Women do not by nature demand either to look up to a man or toy with them. (Men aren't like that either.) That's a dumb idea. Here's another thing that's not true: "Man even when he is selfish or evil always follows principles, woman never follows anything but impulses." (43)
And it's boring! God, for a book about whipping there is none too much whipping. Instead there's a whole lot of him begging to be her slave, and then her treating him vaguely slave-y, and then him getting all indignant, and then her all "Well see, you're being a dick about it," and then him being all "Oh, you're mad at me, treat me like a slave," and then we circle back around to the beginning like fifty times. Wahhhhh.
If you flip the characters' genders in your head while you're reading, the book goes an awful lot like that 50 Shades thing does. (I know more or less how it goes from hearing a million readers and feminists get all pissy about it. It's hard to tell who's more offended about that book - readers or feminists.) But there's a funny twist at the end (spoilers follow for this and I think 50 Shades too): you'd expect a female protagonist to win over the guy and be with him (one way or another). But here, she just dumps him. She's all "I can easily imagine belonging to one man for my entire life, but he would have to be a whole man, a man who would dominate me, who would subjugate me by his innate strength" (23) and then she runs off with a dude who's just like that. So Masoch's kink assumes that one who has it isn't enough to satisfy a woman. That's weird, and probably kindof a bummer for him.
So this is a book about a self-defeating fetish for being controlled, born out of a weird hatred and fear for women. It's unpleasant, and boring, and all too familiar because I still hear that shit today, from miserable nerds.
Lame, dudes. Lame.
Venus in Furs is a bad book.
Like seemingly all of the underwhelming literature before 1900, it is a pointlessly nested story about a "supersensual" man throwing himself in the arms and the hands of a briefly reluctant mistress. Beginning with a sinister attempt at levity, it ends as a rather self-unaware farce including a lover hiding behind furniture. That awkward drollery is detrimental to the subject, and the inherent ridicule of the 19th century does not help ; I much prefer incidentally an other short story by the same author about a tragic voivod and his merciless queen in the Middle Ages, but I cannot remember the title and possibly it was not even by Sacher-Masoch ; anyway Venus in Furs's characters themselves express their longing for more primitive times, where lust and passion had more stark, unironic overtone.
So if even the author could see that why did he put them in the 19th century ? It's like setting an action movie in the 21st one ! Is it a stupid satire or what ?
Fornication, of course, is very much a laughing matter ! or at the very least a smirking matter. But Sacher-Masoch cannot manage a smirk, or even the deadpan which lends a goofy gravitas to most preposterous stories of throbbing flesh. No, he is too pygmalionically enamoured with his own subject, telling his story with love-struck eyes and dropping jaw, and both extremities of the tale suffer from it.
There is room for moments of grace in a story with a bad beginning and a sloppy end ; but an eighty-page story that does not make much room, unfortunately. Such moments are there, though.
Magically magnificent purple prose oozes from the page on occasion, such as the most magnificent sentence of all " she even gave me a kiss, and her cold lips had the fresh frosty fragrance of a young autumnal rose, which blossoms alone amid bare stalks and yellow leaves and upon whose calyx the first frost has hung tiny diamonds of ice " (by the way, the word of the week is whithersoever). Outrageous situations and the narrator's violent torments did echo somewhat in my jaded soul. And at least we are spared the triviality of explicit copulation, Gott sei dank ; it's all heaving bosom and such.
Venus in Furs is a bad book. But for a while, it manages to be a good bad book.
Also a funny thing is that Sacher Masoch fills his story to the brim with never-mentioned again Jews, without even portraying them negatively, which would have been more understandable given the context, or positively for that matter. He just sees them everywhere. Go figure.
Much more relevant than I expected.
As a Domme who deals with all kinds of sexual masochist I found this 137 year old novel a much more useful insight into the mind of male masochists then Stephen Elliott's "My Girlfriend Comes to the City and Beats me Up."
Leopold is more aware of his own inner emotional state.
I'm am amused to see how many reviewers think this book is not "erotic" because it does not contain graphic descriptions of sex. I think what those reviews fail to realize is that, for some people, descriptions of humiliation and abuse *are* sexual.
For some people this is a very hot scene: "To be the slave of a woman, a beautiful woman, whom I love, whom I worship."
"And who on that account maltreats you," interrupted Wanda, laughing.
"Yes, who fetters me and whips me, treads me underfoot, the while she gives herself to another."
"And who in her wantonness will go so far as to make a present of you to your successful rival when driven insane by jealousy you must meet him face to face, who will turn you over to his absolute mercy. Why not? This final tableau doesn't please you so well?"
I looked at Wanda frightened. "You surpass my dreams."
"Yes, we women are inventive," she said, "take heed, when you find your ideal, it might easily happen, that she will treat you more cruelly than you anticipate."
"I am afraid that I have already found my ideal!" I exclaimed, burying my burning face in her lap.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0140447814, Paperback)
Venus in Furs describes the obsessions of Severin von Kusiemski, a European nobleman who desires to be enslaved to a woman. Severin finds his ideal of voluptuous cruelty in the merciless Wanda von Dunajew. This is a passionate and powerful portrayal of one man's struggle to enlighten and instruct himself and others in the realm of desire. Published in 1870, the novel gained notoriety and a degree of immortality for its author when the word "masochism"—derived from his name—entered the vocabulary of psychiatry. This remains a classic literary statement on sexual submission and control.
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:06:21 -0400)
Venus in Furs opens with Severin, a young and wealthy Galician, who has a dark sexual fantasy: he wants a lover who will whip him into submission. When he meets a woman willing to fulfil that desire, reality starts to blur into fantasy, and Severin wonders if he can come out alive... The sensual and riveting Venus in Furs was a visionary novella of its time, and continues to fascinate readers today. It has joined the ranks of Momentum's Classic Erotica series.… (more)

NAB bosses refuse to respond as details emerge–> Ansar Abbasi report in TheNews
Ansar Abbasi
Source: http://www.thenews.com.pk/Todays-News-2-155380-NAB-bosses-refuse-to-respond-as-details-emerge
ISLAMABAD: Top bosses of the NAB have simply vanished to respond to the media queries pertaining to the alleged extreme coercive measures that were said to have been used during the last days on Kamran Faisal that may have led to his sudden death, either by suicide or murder.
Chairman NAB Fasih Bukhari and Director General Financial Crime Wing Kausar Malik, who are alleged to have held an insulting meeting with Kamran Faisal on the night of Jan 16, are neither responding on their mobile phones nor have replied to the SMS messages sent to them.
After repeated efforts the NAB spokesman Zafar Iqbal was, however, helpful to the extent of responding to an SMS message, conveying: "Sorry for late response. In fact I'm still with some guests. As far as you question is concerned, it is totally untrue."
The spokesman was asked if he could confirm whether Kamran Faisal was brought to Chairman's office by Kausar Malik where the officer was alleged to have been pressurised to change his report in favour of the prime minister in the RPPs case.
A NAB official, speaking on the condition of full confidentiality, confided to The News that Kamran Faisal was under extreme duress to change his investigation report that had become the basis for the SC's recent order to get Prime Minister Raja Pervaiz Ashraf and over 20 others arrested in the RPPs case.
The source said that in the evening of Jan 16 Kamran Faisal, who was an assistant director of NAB Rawalpindi, was sitting with his colleagues in the office of Rawalpindi NAB Additional Director Staff officer Shafqat, when he received a phone call from NAB Islamabad headquarter to rush there. Besides others, it is said, assistant director Shahzad was also present.
It is said that the phone call from the Bureau's headquarter had come from Director General Financial Crime Wing Kausar Malik. After the phone call, Kamran is said to have shared with his colleagues that he was being summoned to Islamabad HQs. On this the NAB Rawalpindi additional director staff officer provided to Kamran the official vehicle Kia Registration No. 4242 to attend this urgently called meeting in Islamabad. The name of the vehicle's driver was said to be Tariq.
When approached by The News Shafqat refused to discuss anything regarding this mysterious death. However, the source claimed that Kamran reached NAB's headquarters and went to Kausar Malik's office where he was told that he should change his report for the sake of the institution's respect as on the next day (Jan 17) the Supreme Court was to hear the PM's arrest case.
The source added that Kamran was reluctant to change his report on the wishes of his superior. Later, it is said, Kausar Malik took him to the office of Chairman NAB Fasih Bukhari who was also accompanied by one of the key prosecutors of the Bureau.
In the Chairman NAB's office, the source said, all the three again pressed him to change his report and suggested to him that he could give the reason that for being upset he had wrongly included the name of Prime Minister Raja Pervaiz Ashraf in the RPPs corruption case. It is said that he was also asked to sign a blank stamp paper.
The source claimed that after his refusal he was asked to leave. Kamran later got back to Kausar Malik's office and shared with some of his Rawalpindi colleagues what had happened to him. On Jan 17 hearing of the RPPs case, it is said that Kamran was also present in the SC.
Fasih Bukhari was contacted several times but he did not pick up his mobile. Bukhari also did not respond to The News query forwarded to him through SMS mobile message.
Kausar Malik also did not respond to The News. An SMS message sent to him on Friday evening was responded in the midnight conveying that his mobile phone battery got exhausted so "just saw" the message. He promised to coordinate with The News on Saturday but it did not happen despite repeated efforts. Kausar Malik even did not bother to respond to the questions sent to him.
These questions included: a) Will you please explain why did you call Kamran to your office on 16th evening? B) Why did you take him to the Chairman NAB? c) Did you and the chairman pressurise him to change his report?
Meanwhile an unidentified caller from an official number starting with 924 figure had called this correspondent on Friday evening claiming that late on the evening of Jan 17 Kamran was badly scolded by his senior in the Rawalpindi NAB office for refusing to change his investigation report.

Recently some anchors, including reputed anchor like Kamran Khan (Aaj Kamran Khan Kay Sath host) and not so reputed anchor Sana Bucha (Lekin host), have tried to show that Aafia Siddiqui is an American national or she is a dual national. Aafia's family has repeatedly denied these allegations. It was also interesting to see that how an international lawyer like Ahmer Bilal Sufi (also affiliated with PILDAT) didn't discuss the real aspect of the case i.e. her abduction and reasons behind her abduction.
My views on this issue are that dual national or not, the reality is that she was illegally abducted from Pakistani soil and she was a daughter of a Pakistani family. This is a ridiculous argument again trying to cash in false nationalism over single nationality or dual nationality which is not proved and most importantly was never contested in USA court in fake Afia trial. They also didn't discuss the main accusation on the media on her i.e. her links with Al-Qaida as they didn't have enough grounds for that. Shame on these social class fascists.
How can you allow someone to be abducted without due process if that person (national or not) has entered legally in Pakistan? The case on her was prosecuted for a stupid charge that she snatched gun from USA marines and then in the process got shot herself. No finger prints were there on the gun as was admitted by US official who gave the testimony in the case.
Apparently the momentum is being created to make a ground for the release of Dr. Shakeel afridi.
It is really shameful how things are being presented in the media. Either it is an act or irresponsibility and lack of prudence or lack of honesty, in both cases media organizations should see the professionalism standard of their anchors and opinion makers. Civil society should raise the issue on any forum.

SC orders action against Riaz, Salman and Arsalan–>Remarkable judgment
In a historic judgment by Supreme Court of Pakistan , the judges have ordered an action against Malik Riaz (real estate mafia lord), Salman (Son in law of Malik Riaz) and Arsalan Iftikhar Chaudhry (Chief Justice's own son).
We salute Chief Justice and Supreme Court for showing us that, at least in their eyes, no one is above the law.
SC orders action against Riaz, Salman and Arsalan
Source: http://www.geo.tv/GeoDetail.aspx?ID=54275
ISLAMABAD: A two member bench of the Supreme Court comprising of Justice Jawwad S Khawaja and Justice Khilji Arif have concluded hearing of the Arsalan Iftikhar suo moto case and issued its short order.
In the short order the Supreme Court directed Attorney General Ifran Qadir to take strict action against Malik Raiz, Salman Ahmed (Riaz's son-in-law) and Arsalan Iftikhar according to the law. The court said that the three had the right to a transparent trial.
The court ruled that Malik Riaz tried to buy justice, adding those giving bribes and those taking it were both sinners.
The two member bench also rejected the plea of Malik Riaz's counsel Zahid Bukhari to form a commission or send the case to an investigation agency.
The short order was written on the basis of statements recorded by parties in the case along with those of Hamid Mir, Kamran Khan and Shaheen Sehbai.
Shaheen Sehbai admitted that the son of the CJ was targeted to hatch a conspiracy against the judiciary.
The order further said that Malik Riaz had accepted that despite spending more than Rs340 million he could not get relief. The media should not be used by such persons who do not respect the law and constitution, the order said.

Catching Rockfish With My Son
Type: Tidal
Region: Eastern
Location: Choptank River
My 12 year old son, Will, and I caught these rockfish over an oyster reef just down the Choptank River from Secretary, Maryland. Will's rockfish was 20 inches, whereas mine was a measly 19 inch. He likes to keep reminding me of that! We were bottom fishing with frozen peeler crab in 30 feet of water. We caught a few sublegals and lots of small white perch. One perch did top out at 12 inches, and made it to the cooler.

Human hair normally grows for about one centimeter a month although some people grow hair faster than others do. When conditions are not ideal, hair growth is affected. It is a good thing that there are natural hair growth remedies available around the house and from specialty shops to stimulate hair growth. Many things contribute to normal hair growth. It includes your genetic makeup, your physical and mental health, your diet and your lifestyle. Properly caring for the hair is also a factor in stimulating hair growth. Stress, age, regular lack of sleep, illnesses, and strong chemicals from hair care products are just some of the factors that affect the condition of your hair, which could lead to a slowdown of hair growth or loss of hair. Let us take a look at some of the remedies that are available for you to have a full head of lustrous and thick hair.
10. Remove Stress
Stress is a major contributor to hair loss. To stimulate your hair growth, keep your stress level low. You can do this by identifying the stress-inducers in your life and avoiding them. Practice time management, socialize more, do meditation, yoga, bicycling, laugh more often, do deep breathing exercises, get a pet or engage in a hobby. When you remove or lower your level of stress, you will feel happier and more active, which according to scientific studies could actually make your hair grow normally, if not faster.
9. Exercise and Healthy Diet
A healthy diet and exercise is not only a natural hair growth remedy, these activities contribute to your general well-being. Exercise stimulates the normal functioning of your body organs, which help in physiological and mental rejuvenation – factors that contribute greatly to a healthy body. Together with a healthy diet, you supply your body with the right amount of vitamins and minerals, including Vitamin E, Zinc, Vitamin H or biotin, and Iron.
8. Scalp Massage
A good scalp massage increases blood circulate and stimulates the hair follicles. It allows the hair cells to receive more oxygen to stimulate hair growth. A few drops of virgin coconut oil or a blend of three drops of tea tree oil and one tablespoon of castor oil will act as antiseptic as well as help your fingers move more fluidly along your scalp without tearing the hair. Spread the oil onto your scalp and move your fingers in a circular motion all over your head, working the oil deep into your scalp. Massage your scalp for five minutes before you shampoo and condition your hair. Massage your scalp twice a day if you have the time.
7. Deep Cleansing for the Scalp
The oils and dead skin cells from the scalp can build up around the hair follicles, thus suffocating them and preventing new hair growth or even contributing to hair loss. A clarifying shampoo removes scalp build up. Work up the clarifying shampoo into a rich lather and massage it onto your scalp for at least two minutes before you thoroughly wash it off. It is advisable to use the clarifying shampoo twice a day for one week then once a day for maintenance and help keep your scalp clean.
6. Vitamin Supplements
Sometimes it is difficult to supply all the nutrients you need for healthy hair growth. Taking vitamin supplements will do the trick. To keep you hair healthy, thick and bouncy and to promote faster hair growth, you should provide daily dietary supplements such as protein, Omega-3 fatty acids, B vitamins, particularly vitamin B6, beta-carotene and vitamin E
5. Lime Juice, Fenugreek Seeds and Almond Oil
This combination of natural ingredients is employed in Ayuverdic home remedies as a hair growth stimulant. Crush one tablespoon of fenugreek seeds finely in a mortar and pestle. Add four tablespoons of natural almond oil and two tablespoons of lime juice into the crushed fenugreek seeds and stir to blend the ingredients thoroughly. Apply this mixture to your scalp and the roots of your hair. Massage your scalp for two minutes before leaving the oil on your hair for an additional 15 to 20 minutes. Rinse the oil with water and wash your hair with a gentle shampoo. Do not use a hair dryer to dry your hair. Use the treatment oil at least once a day.
4. Lime Juice, Rosemary Essential Oil and Egg Yolks
This is a richer Ayuverdic home remedy for hair growth with the addition of egg yolks. In a glass bowl combine ¼-teaspoon rosemary essential oil, three teaspoons lemon juice and two egg yolks. Stir the mixture until well blended and apply to the hair roots and the scalp, working the mixture into the scalp with a gentle massage for two to three minutes. Allow the mixture to work its magic for an additional 25 to 30 minutes before you rinse it off with cool water. Use a gentle shampoo and follow up with a moisturizing conditioner to complete the treatment. Hair should be allowed to dry naturally. As long as it does not irritate your scalp, you could use this mixture daily.
3. Sage Essential Oil and Beer
Herbal medicine practitioners recommend this inexpensive home remedy to stimulate hair growth. This treatment has been used since the 1930s. Mix one part sage essential oil to 10 parts beer. Blend the mixture thoroughly and apply to the scalp and around hair follicles. You can do while you are already in the shower. Gently massage your scalp with the mixture for at least a minute and leave it one for another five minutes. Rinse off with water and wash the oil residue with a gentle shampoo. Towel-dry your hair but avoid vigorous scrubbing and allow your hair to dry naturally.
2. Apple Cider Vinegar
If you do not want to spend extra on a clarifying shampoo, the next best thing is to use apple cider vinegar. Mix one-half cup of apple cider vinegar in one cup of water and use this as your final rinse after shampooing your hair. Leave is on for at least three minutes before you rinse your hair in cool water. Once a week of apple cider vinegar treatment will clean your scalp and stimulate hair growth.
1. Aloe Vera
One of the easiest remedies to stimulate hair growth is fresh aloe vera. You just have to get a stalk of aloe vera, peel off one side and massage the gel-like flesh of the plant directly onto your scalp. Aloe vera has antiseptic properties; it removes sebum build up from your scalp, it is a great hair conditioner and contains over 20 minerals needed for hair growth, including vitamins B1, B2, B6, B12, A, E and C.

The Demons (7-4 overall, 1-0 in the Southland Conference) take on the visiting Cardinals (2-11, 0-1) in a 3 p.m. matchup that is the second half of a league doubleheader starting with the women's matchup at 1.
Northwestern dumped McNeese Thursday night at Prather Coliseum 78-63 while Lamar was whipped 79-43 at Stephen F. Austin in the conference openers for all teams.
The Cardinals have played only one home game, winning it against Long Island. Their other victory came in a tournament over IUPUI. Otherwise, coach Pat Knight, the son of Basketball Hall of Fame coach Bob Knight, has taken his young team to games at Kansas State, Charlotte, Virginia, Alabama, Purdue and Baylor. Lamar lost all five starters from last year's Southland Tournament championship team which earned the league's automatic NCAA Tournament berth.
"Pat Knight did a great job getting Lamar into the NCAA Tournament last year. He's a good guy and a very good basketball coach who is trying to bring along a brand-new roster by putting the team into some challenging road games to get them tough for conference play," said 14th-year Demon coach Mike McConathy. "We also know that SFA is playing great basketball. So nothing that has happened before we take the floor Saturday has any real bearing.
"That said, the veterans on our team and our fans remember how painful it was to have our season ended by Lamar last March. They earned the win and we don't resent them for it, but as competitors, it still stings and here's our next opportunity to make amends as best we can," he said. "It truly comes down to our team continuing to commit to playing extremely hard for 40 minutes, defending aggressively, making good decisions with the ball, and protecting our home court."
NSU is 6-0 in Prather Coliseum this season and 30-6 in the last three years at home.
The Demons are averaging 84.6 points per game, fourth best in the country. Four players are in double figures and five have scored at least 20 points at least once this season. DeQuan Hicks tops the scoring chart at 13.7, followed by Jalan West (13.3), Shamir Davis (12.9) and James Hulbin (11.1). Brison White scored 20 against McNeese to raise his season average to 8.8.
After Saturday afternoon's game, Northwestern plays on the road three times next week: Monday night at Sam Houston State, Thursday night at Oral Roberts and Saturday afternoon at Central Arkansas. The next home game is Thursday, Jan. 17 against Nicholls.

how to drop customers nicely-& improve your business
I was hoping that this year would be a transition year- one where I could get enough new customers to drop the ones that aren't as profitable or are a pain. Well I've added about 10 mowing accts from the flyers I passed out and refferals. I bid high on all of my estimates and only had about 5 that didn't want my price. Now I'm up to 54 regular weekly accts solo and need to shed some of them to be able to keep up and it makes sense as I have some (3-5) that aren't very profitable, nice people that pay, but just still w a lowball price from when I first started out. Even though I've already started mowing for them, how do I let them go easily and politely?
