Quest for Spooge
Release date: 7/28/2002

Factory Video
Review brief:
This basically mediocre film is divided into three sections: Damons Quest, Markies Quest, and Jeremy Reddicks Quest. Of them all, the first is perhaps the most interesting as it presents us with a young Damon Dogg before he joined up with Treasure Island Media to become the worlds biggest cum-guzzler. ( He is listed here only as Damon.) He meets up with a young twink (Finnegan Casey) in the woods where there start blowing one another. This (and a later outdoor scene) is poorly photographed as only natural lighting is used and the camera angles do nothing to attempt to avoid shadows covering the cocksucking.) We see better when the boys decide to head back to Damons trailer for more head. Finnegan fucks Damon and blows his load onto Damons face. Even before he joined up with Treasure Island we that Damon had a taste for cum as he does a thorough cleaning of Finnegans spent dick. Markie, a cute skinny bleached blond with a pronounced overbite, enters a hotel room with young Chas in tow and places a Do Not Disturb sign on the door.

Review brief:
JIZZ GYM consists of three scenes, one of which is very good and the other two are fair to middlin. The action does not take place in a gym but in a locker room that I suppose we are to assume is connected to a gym. The first scenethe only one I truly recommendfeatures the blond twink Markie and two black studs: Ukiah Woods and Austin Rivers. Markie sneaks glances at the admirable endowments of the others and everyone is soon grabbing dick. Markie takes things further when he begins sucking Austins stiff pole. Ukiah slurps on Markies. (Markie it should be pointed out is no slouch in the dick department either.) Its nice to see performers who all suck, and these three do. After doing a good job of eating out Markies ass, Ukiah asks Markie if he has ever been fucked by two black guys; and, receiving a negative answer, asks if he would like to be. This receives an affirmative answer. Ukiah arranges Markie on the locker room bench andwith Austin giving the kid something to suck onUkiah slowly inserts his huge cock in the little guy's hole. There is a very nice close-up of this.

Review brief:
Only two of the three scenes are watchable and theres better stuff out there. The first scene is the one that is of most interest. It features Steve Pierce and Seth Handler. Steve is pierced and Seth is a handler. In fact both of these guys are pierced. In addition to nipples both have Prince Alberts in their pricks. Steve has a simple PA; Seth has an oversized one. (When Steve sucks Seths dick you can hear it clink against his teeth. Seth eventually takes it out so Steve can suck with ease.) Seth also has a guiche under his balls. Neither performer is looking good. Steve has grown a mustache that makes him look like Hitler on a bad day. Seth is scruffya poor mans Bruce Willis. The cocksucking goes on for twelve minutes. It is not until then that Steve begins to show off his notable elastic anus. This is illustrated first with a large dildo that Seth lubricates with spit. Anal balls follow the dildo. Seths dick is next. After fucking for a while (Steve probably doesnt even feel this) Seth inserts a dildo along with his prick.

Anal Associates

Reviewed on: 7/26/2006 by
Factory Video
Review brief:
ANAL ASSOCIATES turns out to be an average DVD with only three scenes. Only one (the second scene) is worth your time. The settings are office locales. In the first scene Alexander Diego and Nate Bruno suck each others cocks and fuck each other. Alexander has a smallish uncut cock; Nate is bald with a hairy OK physique and a good-sized dick. They didnt exactly bore me but they didnt turn me on either. I seldom get turned on when I join fucks already in progress. The second scene as stated before is the only one worth our time. Wanna make your boss happy? bald goateed Samoth asks young Trenton Lattimore. Trenton does. Out comes Samoths cock and Trentonon his kneesgoes at it. Soon both are naked. Not only is Samoths head bald, so is his entire body. Theres nary a trace of hair on his chest or at his crotch. Young Trenton, on the other hand, has a lightly haired torso. Trentons cock is rock hard as he sucks on Samoths hairless tool. (Now thats my kind of guy!) Samoth generously gives a mite of head to Trenton before Trenton returns to sucking Samoth.

Billy Wild
Factory Video
Review brief:
Billy Wild is a less than average hirsute blond with a face that looks like a prizefighter's. He is the only one given a full name. The others in the cast are known simply as Bathhouse Boy, tung4ass, Reighly Mayfield, Straight Stripper, orand this is the best oneDick. One is not listed at all. The reason of course is that this is vanity project. It not only stars Billy Wild but has been edited by Billy Wild and the casting was done by Billy Wild (which means he got to choose his own partners) and it was obviously based on an idea by Billy Wild. Well, its one way to get laid. Basically it is Billy picking up guys where they suck dick and eat each other's cum. Billy may possibly be fucked in one scene but we cant tell and he is definitely fucked in the final scene, but other than that its a feast of fellatio. It opens with Billy getting on a train ostensibly coming home. In his compartment on the train he takes off all his clothes and jacks off. He then licks the cum from his hand.

Review brief:
A more appropriate title would be CHICKEN CUM EATERS as there is nothing that really passes for dancing and these younguns have a voracious love of boy honey. The main stars are Markiea skinny bleached blond with buck teeth who had a Freshman magazine spread a while back and appeared in the solo HORSEDICK seriesand Mikey (not Mickey) Turneranother skinny twink who has definite sex appeal. There are other assorted cum-hungry boys. It begins with a group arriving at the theatre to see Markie dance (hehhehhe). Its a small room, drably furnished with comfortable seats for the patrons and a small stage area. Markie enters and twitches a bit; then drops his trou. Some members of the audience start rearranging their dicks but two dance critics in the back row decide theres something better. They suck one another off and swallow down the cum. A twink with a bigger dick than Markie joins him onstage and two other audience members come up to suck their cocks. The suckers concentrate first on the one with the bigger dick and then both go down on Markie.

Oink 2
Release date: 1/17/2003
Reviewed on: 11/24/2004 by
Factory Video
Review brief:
There are some sequels that just should have never been made. Speed 2 comes to mind, as does European Vacation. You can now add Oink 2 to that list. The Plot The plot is that 4 guys meet at San Francisco's Folsom Street Fair and go home to have sex with each other. The men are Kevin Daniels, Tom Braddock, Nate Bruno, and the only returning member from the first Oink movie, cutie Parker Wells. They're all attractive enough, except for maybe Bruno, who reminds me of a cross between Moby and Carrie Bradshaw's gay pal Stanford. Did you ever want to see him naked? Neither did I. The 4 guys suck and fuck in a number of different positions, but the only thing particularly piggy about the film is a cage and a sling. Thankfully, the chapters of the DVD are set up so that instead of taking you to the beginning of a scene, they take you to the orgasms. And the cumshots are really the only interesting thing about this movie - many of them are in-the-mouth. The problem is that it takes a full 50 minutes before we get to see one of them. By that time I was just plain bored.

Boy Sweat

Reviewed on: 7/18/2004 by
Factory Video
Review brief:
We too often buy DVDs because of the cover, and then are disappointed. But this DVD is much better than the cover would lead us to believe. It is one hot film! The guys may not be the handsomest in the world, but they positively drip in pheromones and are S-E-X-Y. And thats what really counts, isnt it. After a heading Stretch Open & Sweat appears on the screen, we meet our first two gym bunnies: Pete Ross and Billy Bowers. Pete Ross is a cute natural blond (his pubic hair confirms it) with a multitude of piercings. Both nipples are pierced. His belly button is pierced. His dick is pierced (not a Prince Albert, but a straight piercing through the dickhead). And there is a guiche underneath his balls. He must really set off the metal detectors at airports. (Odd that neither his ears nor tongue is pierced, but maybe hell get around to them.) Billy is a cute slim brunet whom we also have to thank for doing such a bang-up job as casting director. The action for the first three scenes takes place in a gym (simple sets, but adequate).

Carlos Morales is here too, albeit very briefly. Its a shame there was no way to put names to all the other faces, as there were some really hot guys in this comp. Story: Cumsuckers 7: Overload is a compilation of cumshots from the last batch of movies from the San Francisco Fetish Factory. What makes this cumshot compilations more compelling than most is that a good 60 or so of these cumshots are landing directly in someones mouth!

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Jay-Z says his "Made in America" festival is coming back to Philadelphia.
The rapper posted a teaser video on his "Life and Times" website Monday that showed footage from last year. It says this year's festival will again take place on Labor Day weekend - Aug. 31 and Sept. 1.
Jay-Z says the lineup will be revealed on Spotify on Wednesday.
Last year's festival was the first of its kind for the entrepreneurial Jay-Z, who is married to superstar Beyonce and owns a music management company, fashion line, nightclub and restaurant. He also has a stake in the Brooklyn Nets.
Thousands of music fans shifted among three stages in downtown Philadelphia to watch acts including Skrillex, D'Angelo, Passion Pit, Janelle Monae, Calvin Harris, Pearl Jam, Run DMC, Odd Future and Drake.

U.S. Ambassador Gerald Feierstein
Iran is working with southern secessionists in Yemen to expand its influence and destabilize the strategic region around the Straits of Hormuz, the U.S. envoy to Yemen was quoted as saying on Sunday.
Yemen's state news agency Saba cited U.S. Ambassador Gerald Feierstein as accusing Iran of supporting south Yemeni leaders trying to revive the formerly independent state of South Yemen, and naming Ali Salem al-Beidh, who runs a pro-independence satellite TV station from Lebanon, as one of them, reports Reuters.
"There is evidence that proves Iran's support to some extreme elements of the southern movement (al-Hirak)," Feierstein was quoted by Saba as saying in remarks reported in Arabic.
"Ali Salem al-Beidh resides in Beirut and receives financial support from the Iranian government. We have no doubt that he is responsible for efforts to foil the Gulf initiative (for democratic transition in Yemen) by supporting the calls for secession."
Yemen is grappling with al Qaeda militants and Shi'ite Muslim rebels in the north as well as the southern separatists. Its location flanking top oil producer Saudi Arabia - Iran's Sunni Muslim regional adversary - and major shipping lanes have made restoring its stability an international priority.
Yemen's Gulf neighbors, led by Saudi Arabia, sponsored a deal that saw veteran strongman Ali Abdullah Saleh step down last February after a year of protests and allowed his deputy, Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi, to take office.
The power transfer deal mandates Hadi to oversee reforms during a two-year interim period to ensure a transition to democracy, including amending the constitution and restructuring the armed forces to break the Saleh family's grip.
The process is expected to lead to presidential and parliamentary elections in 2014.
But efforts to convene a national reconciliation dialogue central to reform have met resistance from some south Yemeni separatist leaders such as Beidh.
Beidh failed in a civil war in 1994 to reverse the unification of north and south Yemen four years earlier.
Most of Yemen's fast-declining oil reserves are in the south, but many southerners complain that northerners in the capital Sanaa have discriminated against them and usurped their resources. The central government denies any discrimination.
Yemeni officials have also accused Iran of backing the Shi'ite Houthi rebels who operate in northern Yemen. Iran denies any interference in Yemen's affairs.

America's nearly $13 trillion publicly-held debt is a catastrophic threat to our security and economy, and the time to Fix the Debt is now.
That was the consensus among our group of politically diverse friends following a recent discussion over a Memorial Day barbeque.
We see clearly that the national debt is out of control, and its continued growth puts our national security, social safety net, job growth prospects, and everything we value most about our nation at risk.
Washington has done nothing about this looming catastrophe, and our voices must be heard in a way our elected decision-makers in Washington can't possibly ignore.
There is a ready and excellent solution to our debt crisis in the non-partisan Simpson-Bowles Plan, which eliminates the deficit and reduces the debt by cutting spending, streamlining government, simplifying the tax code and eliminating tax loopholes.
The "Citizen's petition" will boldly demonstrate that Americans across the political spectrum want Congress and the President to take action on the debt now by enacting a plan that uses the Simpson-Bowles framework to reduce the federal debt by more than $4 trillion over ten years.
Optimism, as they say, is the fuel of heroes, the enemy of despair and the architect of the future. So, we've set a goal for a petition of millions of signatures and contacted Erskine Bowles himself to see if he would be the first one. Not only did he return our call, he liked the idea so much that he asked us, a group of friends from many walks of life from across the country, to join forces with his staff and agreed to make this the official petition of the national FixTheDebt.org campaign.
It seems our Memorial Day petition movement is not only happening: it is growing! So please join us by signing the Citizen's Petition to Fix the Debt. Throughout our history, we've always come together to solve our most pressing problems. It's time to do it again.

The Potent Lesson In Understanding How Yelp Learned To Listen
The key to any relationship is communication, right? Yelp founder Jeremy Stoppelman on why it's the same for you and your users.
The story of Yelp is one of not-quite-foreseen potential: as CEO Jeremy Stoppelman will say, the company launched as a way to ask people for recommendations of where they should eat, shop, and hang.
It was the perfect idea, the founders thought, for they were harnessing word of mouth, one of humanity's oldest technologies—though one that no one online had harnessed quite cleanly enough. It was a perfect idea.
Then their user base plummeted.
Yelp knew not what to do. The next step was not clear. But buried deep within their analytics, a glimmer of hope appeared: the people who had used a buried feature that let you write reviews—without being prompted by another user—had comparatively insane engagement.
As a nimble company does, Yelp re-organized themselves in order to do what their users—through their data—were asking them to do: create a forum for reviews. They did. And now Stoppelman's being put on our cover.
In other words, the prodigious Yelp learned to swallow its pride.
As Stoppelman tells the Big Stage, this is a cautionary tale for budding entrepreneurs. "You've gotta be flexible," he says, noting that the place where he sees startups fail is when they have a specific idea and implement it, only to find that it doesn't fit the market. If the company doesn't go to where the market wants them to go—as a lean startup might—they'll crash before they can fly.
That flight, Stoppelman says, comes late: with almost every successful company he's encountered, they have a story of thinking they were going to do one specific thing before realizing that there was an adjacent opportunity and then taking the "right turn at the eleventh hour" to survive.
So even at launch, you have to be mindful of unforeseen opportunities, Stoppelman says:
"You have to be looking for that when you get started. There's so much excitement when you come up with a new idea and start to pursue it, but you can't put the blindfolds on, keep your eyes open and make sure you identify those opportunities"

WTF? Are you serious? Yelp learned to LISTEN? Great job listening to business owners who are sick of having their reviews arbitrarily filtered. I like changing my profile information only to have it ignored. The persistent sales calls after I asked them to stop 3 years ago is another fine example of their listening skills. We're the ones who provide their revenues, not reviewers!
Nice work here.
Yelp is evil! Yelp will filter/hide all of the good reviews unless your business agrees to advertise with yelp. Yelps busuness model is based on extortion and blackmail.

Some of it was pretty much true to life, but most of the time it did seem like someone's fantasy about how Hollywood works and how actors careers go.
As for the way it ended, it clearly was designed to set up a "franchise" onto the big screen if you will, the way Sex In The City did.
The big screen really? I hadn't thought of that, TBH I wouldn't go and see it even though I enjoyed the show.

Everybody seems to have a Twitter account these days – even dogs, it seems, as singer Britney Spears has introduced her new pooch to the world of the micro blogging site.
The popstar tweeted a picture of herself with puppy Hannah earlier today with the caption: "I want you all to meet my new little baby girl @hannahspears <3 How cute is she?!?!"

The canine already has her own Twitter account with an avatar that features the pair together and a bio that says simply: "I'm Britney's B**ch."
Hannah has so far racked up an astounding 5,405 followers already!
Hannah's first tweets were: "Woof!" and "Should I wear a bow? Mum says I'm a princess & that I need a bow."
The pup later tweeted: "What should I chase today…squirrel or chipmunk? Arf arf!"
Britney features on Will.i.am's new single 'Scream and Shout' which is set for a video debut this Wednesday (November 28) on The X Factor USA.
Awhh, how cute! Will you be following Britney's new pup on Twitter?

Placing traffic cameras to catch speeders or red light runners in the act, a go-to strategy for lazily lining the coffers of municipal governments, is already controversial enough. But one Florida city has figured out a way to virtually guarantee a steady income stream, while it's still legal, from its red light (s)cam: set the camera up in front of a hospital emergency room.
Florida Watchdog.org relates the story of Jacob Alcahe, a Miami-area man who drove himself to University Hospital in Tamarac because he was having chest pains. Believing he might be having a heart attack, fully stopping at the red light directly in front of the ER obviously wasn't the first thing on his mind last October:
With the emergency room in sight, he stopped at the traffic light at the intersection of University Drive and 72th Street and waited anxiously for the light to turn green. After several minutes, he decided he'd waited long enough.
"I was desperate to get to the hospital because I felt very nervous," Alcahe said.
Fortunately for him, the episode wasn't life threatening. Alcahe was prescribed some medicine and was told to go home and rest.
The real heart stopper came a few days later when he received a fine of $158 for running the light.
"I went to court trying to show the judge medical records. I explained that it wasn't intentional, but it was a medical emergency," Alcahe said.
But he was told his medical emergency wasn't a "sufficient excuse" and was charged an additional $125 for the judge's time.
In total, his rush for help cost him $283.
"I expected at least a fair (trial), but I think the camera is put there intentionally to capture violations of the people who actually have a medical emergency," he said. "It's a scam to get the city more money. It's unfortunate because local authorities should be for us and seem to be against us. I don't understand and don't think it's fair."
Other States have seen recent legislative action to block cities' reliance on traffic cameras to ticket motorists, even as the private contracting companies that equip the cameras and manage the ticketing system (and legally reap a share of each mailed fine) have come under increasing scrutiny.
Two Republican State Legislators are moving to add Florida to that list: according to Watchdog.org, Florida Senator Jeff Brandes and Representative Frank Artiles have introduced legislation that aims to prohibit cities from installing new traffic light cameras Statewide – even though it would grandfather existing cameras installed before July 1 of this year.

Well maybe if apple actually put out new products, something creative, and actually maintained its word by making a splash in 2014, they would receive less criticism. Its almost april and still nothing. Samsung has now outdone apples phone, and released a smart watch and a second gen smartwatch. Apple has nothing but court battles to show for its victories. Maybe if customers started to jump ship a bit more to samsung apple might start making better products faster.
So that's the funny thing about haters: their narrative about Apple keeps changing.
1. "Apple is a great company on the decline because its almost April and still nothing."
2. "Apple stole all their ideas and never really invented anything, unlike Samsung."
These are contradictory ideas about Apple, but the cognitive dissonance never registers with Fandroids.
Apple was beaten to market by Samsung in MP3 players, smartphones, tablets and TVs too. I'd say Apple has an extremely consistent track record of NOT being first to market. So why is NOT being first in the smartwatch market a sign of Apple in decline??? And, why are you postulating that Samsung was "first" in smartwatches when they were beaten to market by others like Pebble?

'Shocker' tourney honors memory of pro wrestler from McKeesport
A McKeesport-based professional wrestling promotion is making sure its fans remember one of its founding members.
Pro Wrestling eXpress will present the seventh annual Sean "Shocker" Evans Memorial Tournament on Saturday in the Wrestleplex at 2125 Beacon St. Bell time is 7:30 p.m.
Evans, who was raised in McKeesport, cofounded NWA East, PWX's former name, with promoter Jim Miller. Evans was Miller's neighbor and trained in the old Eastland Mall, the wrestling promotion's original home, in 1994. Evans went on to appear in events for World Championship Wrestling, Extreme Championship Wrestling and World Wrestling Entertainment.
Evans was diagnosed with throat cancer in 2005, and was told he had only six months to live. He fought the disease for two years before passing away in October 2007. He was 36.
The memorial tournament is PWX's largest production next to its annual anniversary show. Both events usually bring back icons such as Quinn Magnum and official Shawn Patrick.
The winner of a Fury 6 match with Shirley Doe, Beastman and Bill Collier vs. Ethan Wright, Matt Conard and Alex Matthews will be the final entrant in the tournament.
Opening-round matches include Jack Pollock taking on Ryan Reign, Seth Allen versus Stryder, Dylan Bostic battling J.R. Mega, and Patrick Hayes against the Fury 6 winner.
In nontournament action, the PWX Heavyweight title is up for grabs in a last-man-standing match between Gory, Tanner Reynolds and G-Raver. The PWX Three Rivers and Television titles are on the line in what could be the most dynamic fight of the night with Tony Johnson, Cassidy Stone, Chris LeRusso and Ganon Jones Jr.
Advance tickets at prowrestlingexpress.com are $12 for ringside, $10 for general admission and $6 for fans younger than 12. Tickets at the door are $15 for ringside, $12 for general admission, and $6 for youths.
Fight card is subject to change. More information is available online at prowrestlingexpress.com.

Rooney must score more - FergieComment on this story
Sir Alex Ferguson has challenged Wayne Rooney to rediscover his goalscoring form after one of the striker's worst starts to a season.
Rooney has scored only three goals in 14 games for United, including a penalty. It is his poorest return at this stage of the campaign in his nine seasons at Old Trafford, except for two years ago when he was distracted by the contract crisis that almost saw him leave the club.
Indeed, by this time last year, Rooney had already racked up 12 goals — the same amount Robin van Persie has scored so far in his first season at United. In fairness to Rooney, Van Persie's arrival has forced him to play a deeper role and the England striker has responded by contributing six assists in the Premier League. But Ferguson reminded him yesterday that he has to improve his goal return as well.
'I'm happy with that part of his game and he can contribute to the team's success, fine, but we would rather he scored more, obviously,' said the United boss. 'I think he's going through a period that all strikers do. He's not scoring and it will change once he starts to score regularly. Wayne is the type of player who can't miss games. He's missed bits of games and he was off with tonsillitis. With his frame and the type of person he is, he needs to play all the time.'
Ferguson revealed that Nani could be sidelined for up to five weeks with a hamstring injury. Antonio Valencia is also racing to be fit for next weekend's Manchester derby with the hip injury that will force him to miss today's trip to Reading.
There was better news for United as captain Nemanja Vidic returned to training this week, earlier than expected following knee surgery. Vidic could even play in Wednesday's final Champions League group game against CFR Cluj, although he is unlikely to be risked at the Etihad Stadium four days later.
'I wouldn't be afraid of playing him in the European game,' said Ferguson, who has also seen central defenders Chris Smalling and Phil Jones return from long injury layoffs. 'It's amazing that we've been beset with defensive injuries for quite a long period and, now we've got our defenders back, we've got two wide players injured.'
He must also decide whether to pick Anders Lindegaard ahead of David de Gea in goal again. Lindegaard has kept De Gea on the bench for the last two games after the Spaniard returned from dental surgery and Ferguson is wary of rotating his keepers too often.
'I'm not happy to do it all the time,' he added. 'I think that creates consistency and that's why I've kept Anders in. I could easily have changed it again but he has done nothing wrong.
'Hopefully, David understands that; there is no long-term issue. They are both good keepers.'
Luis Suarez received an award yesterday for becoming the first player to reach 10 goals in the Premier League this season.

Members of the Knights of Columbus carry a statue of Mary past the US Supreme Court during the March for Life on January 25, 2013 in Washington.
- Filed Under
The Supreme Court has been in hibernation lately during its long winter recess. The justices have not been on the bench since Jan. 22.
There have been some sightings. Six of the nine justices attended the State of the Union Address on Tuesday night, and they all appeared at President Obama's inauguration. Justice Sonia Sotomayor has been the most visible justice, promoting her intimate memoir, My Beloved World.
But starting on Tuesday, the justices will get back to work, commencing a four-month period of hearings and decision-making that could be among the most momentous in its history. If you thought last term was historic, with its landmark decision upholding the Obama health care reform law, this term might top it.
By the end of the term in late June, the court could well decide whether two longstanding but controversial tools for advancing civil rights have outlived their usefulness. The future of affirmative action hangs in the balance in a case from the University of Texas. And on Feb. 27, the court will hear debate over a section of the Voting Rights Act that requires federal approval of changes in local election procedures. Communities throughout the South assert that such intrusions are no longer needed, while civil rights groups say discriminatory practices persist.
High tech, low tech
Other major cases before the court will involve the implications of new technologies: whether human genes can be patented, and whether police can routinely take DNA samples from arrestees who have not been convicted of a crime. The constitutionality of a more low-tech police technique will also be examined: searches by drug-sniffing dogs.
But the truly historic cases before the court this term deal with same-sex marriage. One asks whether certain federal benefits that go to heterosexual couples can be denied to legally married gay couples. The other, from California, could decide whether states are constitutionally required to permit same-sex marriages -- though the case could also be decided on narrower grounds.
Throughout its history, the high court has played a pivotal role in expanding the rights of minorities, sometimes acting ahead of the times, while in other instances following the lead of public sentiment. Public approval of same-sex marriage has increased dramatically in recent years, but it is not certain that the justices will move that quickly. It is only a decade since the court struck down laws criminalizing homosexual acts.
It is hard to preview the dramatic court session ahead without also making a point we've made before. As history unfolds at the Supreme Court this spring, only a few hundred people will be able to witness it. That is because the justices stubbornly cling to their opposition to allowing cameras inside their chamber to broadcast their proceedings. The justices insist that allowing camera coverage would spoil their processes and somehow damage their legitimacy.
Sotomayor on cameras
During her book tour, Sotomayor was asked more than once for her views about camera access. She made the unfortunate statement that televising oral arguments could be "more misleading than helpful" because most viewers don't understand the issues involved or how the court works. Viewers might not be experts on the workings of other public institutions, either, but is that a reason to keep people from seeing them? As Justice Elena Kagan said during her Senate confirmation hearing in 2010, allowing cameras in the Supreme Court would be "a great thing for the institution, and more important, I think it would be a great thing for the American people."
Sotomayor made similar statements during her confirmation hearing the year before. But now that they are ensconced for life as Supreme Court justices, both Kagan and Sotomayor regrettably appear to have changed their minds. Political scientists say it is not uncommon for once-independent public figures to "go native" and adopt the norms of the institutions they have joined.
But in the digital age, those norms and traditions seem especially antique. In coming weeks and months, it will be frustrating to realize that those outmoded views are keeping the American people from seeing their Supreme Court make history.

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush is praising the Senate for
approving a financial bailout and calling on the House to do the same.
In a statement released following Wednesday night's vote, the president said he believes members of both parties in the House can support the legislation. He said the American people expect and the economy demands that the House passes the bill.
In the final vote, 40 Democrats, 33 Republicans and independent
Joe Lieberman of Connecticut voted "yes." Nine Democrats, 15
Republicans and independent Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont voted
"no." John McCain and Barack Obama cast "aye" votes.
The rescue package would allow the government to spend billions
of dollars to buy bad mortgage-related securities and other devalued assets held by troubled financial institutions.
Critics say the rescue plan is a giveaway for Wall Street and has little obvious direct benefit for ordinary Americans.
Meanwhile, Wall Street is reacting cautiously to the Senate's passage of the banking bailout plan.
Stock index futures, which give an indication of how trading will proceed when the market opens, are down moderately after the
Dow Jones industrial average futures are down 48, or 0.44
percent, at 10,839.
Investors may be taking a wait-and-see approach until the House votes on the plan on Friday. It was the House's defeat of the plan Monday that sent the Dow plunging 778 points.

STARKVILLE, Miss. (AP) -- Mississippi State coach Dan Mullen has
rarely met a conversation he didn't like during his two-plus years
on campus, chatting up reporters and fans at every turn.
But there are two subjects that will make the third-year coach
clam up in a hurry: Injuries and the depth chart.
Thanks to mostly closed practices, Mississippi State's preseason
camp is a mystery. Mullen has a policy of not answering injury
inquiries, dismissing them as "silly questions." Position battles
are also shrouded in secrecy.
The secrets won't last too much longer, though. The 20th-ranked
Bulldogs open their season on the road against Memphis on Thursday at The Liberty Bowl.
The Bulldogs return 15 starters from a team that finished 9-4
last season.

3 Buy-Rated Dividend Stocks: PEG, BPL, CXW
Buckeye Partners L.PDividend Yield: 5.90% Buckeye Partners L.P (NYSE: BPL) shares currently have a dividend yield of 5.90%. Buckeye Partners, L.P. owns and operates refined petroleum products pipeline systems in the United States. Its Pipelines & Terminals segment transports refined petroleum products; and provides bulk storage and terminal throughput services in the continental United States. The company has a P/E ratio of 27.00. The average volume for Buckeye Partners L.P has been 401,500 shares per day over the past 30 days. Buckeye Partners L.P has a market cap of $6.9 billion and is part of the energy industry. Shares are up 56.9% year to date as of the close of trading on Wednesday. TheStreet Ratings rates Buckeye Partners L.P as a buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, solid stock price performance, impressive record of earnings per share growth, compelling growth in net income and good cash flow from operations. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had generally high debt management risk by most measures that we evaluated. Highlights from the ratings report include:
- The revenue growth came in higher than the industry average of 10.7%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly increased by 6.8%. Growth in the company's revenue appears to have helped boost the earnings per share.
- Powered by its strong earnings growth of 59.25% and other important driving factors, this stock has surged by 33.10% over the past year, outperforming the rise in the S&P 500 Index during the same period. Turning to the future, naturally, any stock can fall in a major bear market. However, in almost any other environment, the stock should continue to move higher despite the fact that it has already enjoyed nice gains in the past year.
- BUCKEYE PARTNERS LP reported significant earnings per share improvement in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past two years. We feel that this trend should continue. During the past fiscal year, BUCKEYE PARTNERS LP increased its bottom line by earning $2.31 versus $1.25 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($3.40 versus $2.31).
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels industry. The net income increased by 71.9% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from $51.96 million to $89.34 million.
- Net operating cash flow has remained constant at $182.42 million with no significant change when compared to the same quarter last year. Along with maintaining stable cash flow from operations, the firm exceeded the industry average cash flow growth rate of -25.84%.

When Russ Ziegler, 5, of Dover, uses a computer in his kindergarten class, he uses a yellow, large-print keyboard. He also has to apply sunscreen before recess.
His older brother, Jeb, 7, helps him out, sitting behind him on the bus so he can keep an eye on him.
Russ has a visual acuity of 20/100 or in other words, needs to be within 20 feet of what people with normal vision can see at 100 feet. For someone with albinism, an inherited condition that results in no or limited quantities of the pigment, melanin, in skin, hair and eyes, his sight is quite good.
"His eyes are actually really great," said Paula Ziegler, his mother.
Many people with albinism have a visual acuity of 20/200, which is legally blind, Ziegler said.
Russ and Jeb bowled in an end lane with gutters Sunday afternoon for the 23rd Annual Tony Petraco Memorial Bowl-a-Thon to benefit ForSight Vision Center.
"We help people who are blind or visually impaired in York and Adams counties," said Tony Heath, service coordinator for ForSight Vision and president of the Eastgate Lions Club, which sponsored the event.
ForSight Vision provides counseling, employment resources and more to the visually impaired, as well as preschool vision screenings for early intervention, Heath said.
The Zieglers have been attending art classes and other programs at the ForSight Vision Center for about three years, Paula Ziegler said.
The center provides programs that incorporate other senses, such as touch, which uses textured paint in a mosaic project. The programs allow the kids to play with other children with similar situations, but also serve as a support system for the families.
"It's like coming home," said Felicia Smith, of Dallastown. Smith's two daughters, Kai, 7, and Naima, 6, both have albinism. Albinism affects only 1 in 17,000, according to Paula Ziegler.
"It's kind of like being part of a club where everyone gets it," Smith said.
The parents compare notes on therapists and accommodations at school. Accommodations can range from having an assistant in the classroom to having teachers' increase the font size on assignments to using electric magnifiers.
"You can talk (to people) on the Internet, and I've met people all over the world ... (but) it's just different," Paula said. "You kind of become instant friends."
Russ, Jeb, Kai and Naima took turns rolling the bowling balls down the lane, letting their feet swing while they sat waiting for their next turn.
"The way he gets around you would never know, and that's how most of these kids are," Paula Ziegler said. "They learn how to accommodate."

Nordic Cool 2013: Tampere Workers' Theatre, Finland: The Warmblooded
Saturday, March 02, 2013 - Sunday, March 03, 2013
Once the proud owners of a small farm, the Kotalas now live beneath the overpass of a forgotten highway alongside a motley crew of drunks and Romanian gypsies in this warm-hearted tale.

Written and directed by Sirkku Peltola
"The Christmas tableau performed under the bridge must be the most spectacular theater scene I have ever seen."
--Demari News (Finland)
From Tampere Workers' Theatre, one of the largest theaters in Tampere, Finland's performing arts capital, comes The Warmblooded, the third and final stand-alone production from an award-winning trilogy that chronicles the thinning fortunes of the Kotala family. Once the proud owners of a small farm, the Kotalas are now destitute, living beneath the overpass of a forgotten highway alongside a motley crew of drunks, Iraqi refugees, and Romanian gypsies. When the camp dwellers begin rehearsing a Christmas pageant for their charitable neighbors, they discover that their dismal lives under a cold, wintry sky can also be filled with small miracles. Written and directed by one of Finland's most frequently performed playwrights, The Warmblooded is a comedic, warm-hearted look at Finnish life.
In Finnish with English supertitles.

Question: I heard my Internet service provider is starting a policy called "Six Strikes." How will it affect my surfing?
Answer: It depends. If someone in your home is pirating movies, TV or music, you'll start receiving warning notices. The first couple will be friendly emails or calls telling you someone is pirating copyrighted content on your connection. From there, your ISP could throttle your data speeds or block out certain sites.
Your service would go back to normal once you've contacted your ISP.
While this sounds like harsh punishment, it's actually better than the way piracy disputes currently are handled. It gives you an opportunity to talk to anyone in your house who is misusing the connection, or lock down your wireless network, instead of receiving a surprise lawsuit from the MPAA or RIAA.
Limit distractions caused by Facebook
Q: I feel like Facebook is draining my productivity! Are there any tools that can help make the site not so addictive?
A: You bet! Downloads like Facebook Nanny and Cold Turkey can restrict your access to the site for custom periods of time. You also can block surfing through your router at certain times of the day. But these are all industrial-strength solutions to the problem.
Limiting notifications on your Facebook will do just as well to stop distractions while you're working. To do that, click the upside-down triangle in the top right corner of your profile page and go to "Account settings."
You'll see a Notifications tab in the left where you can edit how often you receive notifications. You also can opt out of notifications by hovering over any notification itself and clicking the X that appears.
Before you give a child a gadget ...
Q: I'm giving my granddaughter her first smartphone for Christmas. Are there any sort of parental controls I can set up to ensure she stays safe?
A: There are built-in parental controls on most smartphones that can be found in their manuals. And you can add third-party apps like Mobicip for safer browsing and Lookout to help keep their phone safe from viruses.
However, teens have a habit of learning how to hack their gadgets to get around these and do things they're not supposed to do.
The best way to avoid that isn't any app or setting. It's to have a chat with the child (and, in other cases, a grandchild and their parents). Tell them what is and isn't OK, then follow it up with regular check-ins. Children are more likely to listen when they see you trust and care about them.
Most anti-virus works on Windows 8
Q: I'm debating a Windows 8 upgrade but don't know if my security software will work. Are there options specifically made for Windows 8, or can I use what I already use?
A: While Windows 8 is the first Windows build to come with full-featured security software, I don't recommend it. Hackers tailor attacks to the default options in Windows. Luckily, most popular anti-virus software should work fine in Windows 8.
If you want to double check a specific program, use Microsoft's compatibility scanner. I tested three of my favorites - Avast!, Spyboy Search & Destroy and MalwareBytes - and they all made the jump fine.
According to Microsoft, third-party firewalls might not work in Windows 8. ZoneAlarm just released a version it claims will work just fine. No matter whether you run that or the default option in Windows, make sure you never run both at the same time.
Questioning safety of shorthand links?
Q: A friend posted a link on Facebook that said Youtu.be instead of Youtube.com. Would this link be safe, or was I right to not click?
A: Youtu.be is YouTube's official shortened link. You can find it in the share button underneath any video on the site.
While this one is safe, you were right not to click on a shortened link without knowing where it goes. Scammers can hide all sorts of malicious things inside them. If you often see shortened links on your social media, use Tweetdeck to read your social posts and switch "Auto URL shortening" to off. This allows you to see the full link. However, when you post a link, Twitter or other social sites still will shorten it automatically for you.

Housing markets around the world including London, New York, Paris, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Hong Kong have got off to a strong start this year, reports indicate.
Christie's International Real Estate, a high-end property affiliate network under Christie's auction house, has launched a new index that compares world real estate markets by different metrics - including sales price, prices per square foot and percentage of foreign buyers, among others.
London topped the index with a record sales price of more than US$121 million (HK$943.8 million) for a home last year.
The second was New York, where a residential property sold for US$88 million, marking a record in the city in 2012.
While some economists expect worldwide housing markets to slow down, others believe luxury homes are immune from overall economic movements.
"Except where there is government intervention, luxury residential real estate values will likely follow luxury goods and not the general housing market, and are therefore poised to increase in many of the cities studied in 2013," said The Real Deal magazine, citing research by Boston Consulting Group.
"This is particularly true as high net worth individuals turn their luxury investments toward nonconsumables and experiential luxury products that have lasting values."
Bonnie Stone Sellers, chief executive of New Y
And these people are particularly keen to buy homes across borders, especially when the local economies of their home towns are turning uncertain and even becoming more riskier in the near term. Agents have long been ready for more buyers from all over the world.
Dolly Lenz, vice chairperson at Prudential Douglas Elliman Real Estate, said affluent buyers from Britain and China are usually willing to pay more.
Lenz said the prolonged environment of record low interest rates - which is expected to stay until 2015 - is not the major reason for foreign money rushing into the New York property market.
"Many of these people pay cash, and the others would need mortgages at probably 60 percent of the home prices," Lenz said in a report on her own website.
These wealthy global buyers may not seek to buy a property in New York merely for the sake of investment, according to another realtor based in the city.
"Many of them are not just looking at this as a place to dump their cash," Pamela Liebman, president of Corcoran Group, told the Wall Street Journal. "They want a place they can use and enjoy when they come to New York; many of them have family here."

Cheesy Spinach and Bacon Dip | Perfect For the Playoffs!
This month's Weeknight Wow Recipe is so fun! With all the playoffs and the Super Bowl, this dip is bound to be a hit. It is so incredibly easy to make! Plus, with a name that includes cheese and bacon – hello!
I made this and left some on the counter while I was taking this picture. I came back and found an empty bowl. Hmm, I guess someone liked it {namely Frank}.
This literally took about 15 minutes from start to finish. Pair this with tortilla chips, veggies, cracker or even sourdough bread.
PREP TIME: 10 minutes
TOTAL TIME: 15 minutes
MAKES: 4 cups or 32 servings, 2 Tbsp. each
Cheesy Spinach and Bacon Dip
- 1 pkg. (10 oz.) frozen chopped spinach, thawed, drained
- 1 lb. (16 oz.) VELVEETA®, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 4 oz. (1/2 of 8-oz. pkg.) cream cheese, cubed
- 1 can (10 oz.) RO*TEL® Diced Tomatoes & Green Chilies, undrained
- 8 slices bacon, cooked, crumbled
MICROWAVE ingredients in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 5 minutes or until VELVEETA® is completely melted and mixture is well blended, stirring after 3 minutes.
Now, you might not always have all the ingredients, so here are some tips to make it in a pinch:
- I added fresh spinach. Clean spinach, chop up and microwave 1 minute before adding to your recipe.
- If you don't have bacon, you can always use bacon pieces (real bacon, not bacon bits)
- If you like it extra hot, add a red pepper flakes.
- Substitute low fat cream cheese if you want to take the calories down.
VELVEETA® and RO*TEL® are hosting an amazing sweepstakes to encourage simple, easy weeknight family meals and entertainment ideas. Winners will be picked each week, and the more points you collect the more chances you have of winning! Grand prize winner will receive $15,000!
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of VELVEETA/RO*TEL. The opinions and text are all mine.

Safeway unveils memorial at Tucson shooting site
TUCSON, Ariz. - Safeway Inc. has built a memorial at its Tucson supermarket where six people were shot to death and Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and 12 others wounded.
The company announced Saturday that it had completed the memorial near the spot where the shooting happened. Sunday marks the one-year anniversary of the shooting.
Safeway Phoenix division president Dan Valenzuela issued a statement saying the company wants to make sure the shooting site remains respected.
Spokeswoman Nancy Keane says no formal ceremony was held.
The memorial was built in a landscaped area next to the store entrance. It consists of a large granite boulder circled by six smaller granite boulders. The circle of rocks represents the six lives lost, and the larger boulder represents the wounded and "Tucson's unbreakable spirit."

Texas Longhorns Football: SI.com creates a tournament bracket for Horns' coaching search

Until Friday, fans can vote on the first-round matchups, which include some doozies.
Will this bracket influence Longhorn AD Steve Patterson's final decision — probably not. But it's still a bracket college football fans — rejoice.
Who should be the next Texas coach? Cast your vote now with SI's bracket! -> http://t.co/r0lg3xlmD7 pic.twitter.com/aGMpbN300b
