Everybody will have a particular feel about what they like in focal lengths. Ask yourself about the application and the goal you are seeking to obtain with your photographs, and the choice of lenses will be obvious. Also be wary about the lust for speed, it'll end up costing you an arm and a leg, and is a hard thing to give up when you have a taste of it.
Thanks a lot for the useful link.....

A direct gear-driven VMAC® compressor, with no belts or clutches to wear out, pumps out plenty of air for arc gouging, plasma cutting or almost any air tool. A powerful 500 amps at 100% duty cycle is enough for almost any stick, TIG, MIG, or flux-cored welding project. And, the precision arc starting providing by Lincoln Chopper Technology and Touch-Start TIG will make any operator a better welder. Don"t pay extra for plenty of AC generator power-up to 20,000 watts of 3-phrase and 12,000 watts of 1-phrase is standard stainless steel roof and side panels added durability and corrosion-resistance. The reliable Cummins® B3.3 water cooled diesel engine will keep you running-and working-for a long time.

Robin Monarch is a man with a complicated, secret past and a very grim future. Currently locked up in the USDB—the military supermax prison known as Leavenworth—the CIA offers Monarch one shot at freedom and a pardon. All he has to do is steal something from a highly secure position at ground zero of a warzone and escape undetected.
But this isn't Monarch's first time at this sort of dance—as an orphaned teen scraping for survival on the streets of Buenos Aires, he was involved with the Fraternidad de Ladrones—the Brotherhood that schooled him the art of deception and survival. But his initiation rite is to take all the skills he has learned, and all the nerve he possesses, and steal something of great value under impossible circumstances.
In both cases, success will require everything he has—skill, wit, endurance, and intelligence—and means survival and freedom. And failure? failure is to lose all that he has.
Introducing Robin Monarch ("a Jason Bourne for the new millenium", says James Rollins) in the first in a series of standalone short stories. Think Bourne. Think Bond. Think better.

"great action and story line... want more !!"
Love this series! Gives Jason Bourne a run for his money. Will definitely keep my eye on this guy Robin.
"Can't wait for more Robin Monarch!"
This was a great introduction to the character Robin Monarch. What a fun, edge-of-your-seat kind of listen. I'm looking forward to more Robin Monarch stories on audio.

Travel Updates
Invisible Man artist Liu Bolin is back, but where is he?
- From: News Corp Australia Network
- January 11, 2013
- Chinese artist disappears into his surroundings
- Spends up to ten hours working on each photograph
- Artist casts himself as a human chameleon
CHINESE artist Liu Bolin, who shot to worldwide fame through his incredible 'invisible art', is back with another exhibition: if you can spot him that is.
Liu spends up to ten hours at a time being covered in paint by assistants for the camouflage artworks so that he blends into his chosen backdrops.
The works are so effective that at first glance he is almost invisible.
Liu's new exhibition, Hiding in the City, at New York's Eli Klein Art Gallery, shows him hiding in a wall of mobile phones, blending into bus stops and merging into statues in Beijing's Forbidden City.
Chinese artist Liu was inspired to create his camouflage artworks after the Chinese government destroyed Beijing artist village Suo Jia Cun in 2005.
At the time, Liu had been working in the village, which housed Asia's largest congregation of artists.
Prompted by the demolition of the site, Liu decided to use his art as a means of silent protest.
He has said that his works are a comment on man's place in society: "Each one chooses his or her path to come in contact with the external world. I chose to merge with the environment."

Apart from those active things I play chess and used to teach this great game to kids for over 10 years.
When I read books it could be anything. For instance about the first solo flight by Lindbergh around the world or the Con-Tiki expedition. Clive Cussler is one of my favorite authors when traveling by plane. In general I'm interested in physics, and natural science and mathematics, and more recently in geocaching in the great outdoors!
My music taste is abit weird; from classic like Mozart to Ramstein, Blue Man Group, and Bon Jovi, or dutch singers like Ilse de Lange andTwo Unlimited
I am humorous, nerdy, and like to travel

Muskingum County Sheriff Matt Lutz speaks to the media about exotic animals loose in the area. / Trevor Jones/Times Recorder
It was just a few days ago when the sheriff of a county with 86,000 residents was thrust into an international spotlight.
While people worldwide have second guessed his actions, Muskingum County Sheriff Matt Lutz said he does not have second thoughts about giving an order to shoot and kill lions, tigers, bears, wolves and monkeys.
"When I gave that order, I wasn't thinking about the animals," Lutz said. "I was thinking about the public and their safety. I know I would do nothing different today."
On Tuesday evening, the sheriff's office had to deal with 56 animals roaming the Kopchak Road area after their owner, Terry Thompson, 62, released them from their cages and then killed himself.
Of the animals, 48 were shot, six were taken to the Columbus Zoo, one monkey is unaccounted for but presumed dead, and another monkey was killed by one of the large cats.
"When I became sheriff, I vowed to be as professional as I could," Lutz said. "I represent the people of this community, and the most important thing I knew when I took the job was to surround myself with key people who could do the job. That's exactly what I did and that's exactly what they did."
Media outlets from across the state and the country poured into Muskingum County to cover what became one of the largest stories in the country. The story went viral on the Internet, and coverage of the events played out around the world.
Lutz said handling the media as he did this past week came from media training classes and dealing with the local media.
"I've always tried to be open with the media and keep our communications lines open," Lutz said. "I watched my dad doing his job, and he was a real people person."
Lutz's father, Lt. Michael Lutz, was a 16-year veteran of the sheriff's office who was killed in the line of duty in 1994.
Lutz said he, his dispatchers and his deputies have been receiving numerous phone calls and emails from people who are extremely distraught and angry about the deaths of the animals.
"Some people are being very hostile to my dispatchers and even me," Lutz said. "They're using profane language in some cases, but I believe that these people don't have all the facts."
Lutz said in his 23 years as a member of the sheriff's office, he's had personal experience in dealing with Thompson and knew the number, type and aggression level of the animals he kept at his farm.
"I've been out there and walked past the pens and had those cats become aggressive," Lutz said. "I knew if those animals were running loose, they were out of control. If I had to do it over, I'd do the exact same thing."
Still, he thinks the animals dying was senseless.
"It didn't have to happen, but that was a decision Mr. Thompson made," Lutz said. "There was no reason for those animals to have to be killed or my deputies put in the positions they were put in. But that was his decision, and I had to do what I had to do to protect my people and this community."
Lutz said he isn't really bothered by the bitter backlash toward him.
"I keep things in perspective," Lutz said. "I believe people are allowed to speak their minds and have their own opinions."
But not everyone had the facts, and rumors have run amok regarding Thompson and what happened Tuesday night on Kopchak Road.
A story reported on national TV Friday stated people had been arrested after trying to dig up the bodies of the dead animals.
"No one has come on the farm and tried to dig up the animals," Lutz said. "I refuse to speculate about things, and I refuse to belittle the situation. I don't know what was running through Terry's mind or what he was thinking. I know he couldn't have been in his right mind to do what he did. That's about all I know."
Lutz said he's heard some rumors and has mulled over various opinions in his mind, but he thinks Thompson killed himself by shooting himself in the head.
"There is no other conclusion," Lutz said. "This was a suicide."
Some chicken bones and meat were found on the driveway near Thompson's body and Lutz said he really doesn't know why they were there.
"There have been various explanations," Lutz said. "Maybe Terry just threw them there for the animals to eat. We just don't know and probably never will."
Lutz can't say enough about Columbus Zoo Director Emeritus Jack Hanna, officials from the Wilds, his employees, county officials, state officials and Gov. John Kasich for their support.
"And the public," he said.
"I have to give a huge thank you to this community who supported us in so many ways. ... I just can't tell you how that makes me feel when there's that much support for you and your office. It's good."
Lutz had a meeting with his employees Friday afternoon to go over the incident.
"We're tired, but we're good," Lutz said. "This is part of the job. This is what we do. I know I personally have great support from my staff and my family."
The dispatchers have had a difficult time not just answering their daily calls but dealing with frustrated and angry people from all across the world, Lutz said.
"They're great people, and they've handled themselves so professionally," Lutz said. "I couldn't be prouder of them."
As for the deputies, Lutz said they did a great job, although it wasn't one they enjoyed.
"I've told them if they need to talk about the situation, come to me and I'll get you some counseling," Lutz said. "None of us were happy about what we had to do out there. None of us."

Michelle Rodriguez: Black Actors must be "Trashy and Black" to get an Oscar
When thinking down the line of Hollywood actresses of color who've made an indelible impact on current films, Michelle Rodriguez probably doesn't register on anybody's radar; at least not enough so, that she'd be recognized by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. So when Vulture caught up with the actress at an amfAR event at Cannes this past week, the actress had just come from a screening of the controversial Lee Daniels directed film, The Paperboy— (which has been garnering unfavorable reviews by critics) — and expressed her appreciation for the film…
"I say fuck them because they don't get it", the actress opined. "He's so good at keeping me entertained. When I don't like the dialogue, I'm amused by the visuals. And when I don't like the visuals, I'm amused by the dialogue. It's always switching up senses. I'm intrigued by his ability to capture me in a theater. It's not easy to capture me in a theater — I'm ADD like that."
When prodded about a scene in which Nicole Kidman apparently pees on actor Zac Efron to soothe a jellyfish sting, Michelle waxed philosophical about the politics surrounding Black actresses and actors who've been nominated for and/or won film awards…
"I fucking loved it. One of my friends said, 'She's going to get nominated for an Oscar for that.' I was like, 'Nah, man. She's not black!' I laugh, but it's also very sad. It makes me want to cry. But I really believe. You have to be trashy and black to get nominated. You can't just be trashy." (Source)
It didn't take long for Michelle's public gaffe to start circulating those Black pockets of the social media realm. Re-tweeted and re-posted on Twitter and Facebook, Black bloggers and pop-culture critics were not amused and immediately took offense; but doesn't Michelle Rodriguez present a very good point about the worth of Black actors and actresses (or anyone in that industry, of color) in Hollywood? As a woman of color, navigating the landscape of the Hollywood machine, Michelle herself has been typecast since making her debut in Girlfight, whether she'd be inclined to agree with that very obvious point or not, so on some level perhaps she speaks a very honest (albeit it an unfiltered and somewhat tactless) truth.
Consider some of the voices of displeasure when Octavia Spencer nabbed an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for her role (playing a sassy domestic) in The Help. And most of us couldn't even fathom Viola Davis emphatically defending having played a maid in the same movie. Some of our sistren and brethren still harbor the bitter aftertaste Halle Berry's 2002 Oscar win for her turn in Monster's Ball left in our mouths… the same evening Denzel won for playing a corrupt and unscrupulous police officer in Training Day, to which he quipped, "Two birds in one night, huh?" during his acceptance speech. Box office numbers for movies that are rife with racial and/or ethnic stereotypes don't lie… because ofttimes, we're the ones rushing out to the theaters to see them. We aren't running out in droves to see highly nuanced and thought-provoking films about us, written and directed by us.
In a sometimes tense Black social media sphere, where certain ones us hurl accusatory epithets like Mammy, Ghetto Queen, Sapphire and thug towards entertainers who portray such roles, directors (both Black and non-Black, who help steer actors in those roles), and towards everyday people who don't convey modes of behavior befitting the ideals and expectations of an upwardly mobile person of color; I get and understand the exasperation and desire to see better images of ourselves on the big screen and to see better behavior modeled by some folks in our community. So in essence, isn't Michelle Rodriguez mimicking a truth we often voice out loud about ourselves? One commenter who actually agreed with Michelle's assessment, wrote on Facebook…
The "black and trashy" are the most recognized and talked about which tends to silence all the valuing nominations into the backdrop or a footnote. What she speaks of are not absolutes but are of the most resonating nominations."
What say you? Is Michelle Rodriguez's comment about rewards for "Black and Trashy" roles a dig at Black actors or a critique of Hollywood's perpetuation of racial stereotypes?

Additional Information
About Fundación ParaguayaFundación Paraguaya is a financially self-sustaining social enterprise that promotes entrepreneurship in urban and rural areas through microfinance, education programs, and more. Its focus on agriculture has helped many farmers boost their crop yields. And a number of other borrowers have taken out loans to start and grow social businesses that have helped deliver eyeglasses, medicines and other helpful services in their local communities.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

I recently got my hands on the book "PHPUnit Essentials" and decided to do a review.
The book offers a wide variety of information about PHPUnit. At the very beginning it provides insights how to install PHPUnit and how to set up a development environment. Further, it elaborates on the question why to do tests and how to write code that can be tested easier. Finally it reaches its culmination with more business oriented techniques of "Functional Tests in the Browser using Selenium" and "Continuous Integration".

Social Media Marketing: How enterprise-level social media managers handle negative sentiment
At last week's MarketingSherpa B2B Marketing Summit in Boston, we had a very interesting panel of social media marketers sharing their experiences with everything from metrics to internally selling the business value of the practice.
One question that always interests me is…how should marketers deal with negative social media comments, postings, and the like? If you come across negative sentiment that is discovered during listening, or in general any type of negative blogs, blog comments, postings on Facebook, Twitter etc., how should you react?
Here at MECLABS, we follow the credo of Transparent Marketing. Hey, we're not perfect and we don't have all the answers. We're always experimenting. And where we fall short, someone else might have a better idea.
At the expense of receiving a deluge of negative social media mentions, I like (clever Facebook pun intended) when we get some negativity coming our way. The overwhelming amount of social media attention we get is positive. When we get some negative feedback, it means professional marketers are passionately following our content.
And that's the other thing – its feedback. As I said, we're always experimenting and learning ourselves. We're also lucky to have a very savvy audience of experienced marketers. So those negative comments help us decide how to shape our content to most benefit our audience. As I've said before, our job is to help you do your job better. When you tell us what you don't need and what you do need, we get closer to hitting that mark.
(Of course, now that I've set myself up for all the negative comments, I also wanted to let you know that you can always give me feedback in private as well.)
Enough from me, on to the experts from the MarketingSherpa B2B Marketing Summit that were kind enough to share their wisdom… Read more…

Miller Park Tax Intact Nearly 20 Years Later, as Lambeau Field's Ends
Residents of Brown County have a little extra money coming their way. Gov. Walker on Monday signed a bill that will return $17 million in excess taxes that the county collected to upgrade Lambeau Field. In the greater Milwaukee area, it's been a different story when it comes to paying off Miller Park. Taxpayers here have been repaying the debt for nearly 20 years. The end date for the tax came and went.

Globalization, Governance and the State: Some Propositions about Governing
Peters, B. Guy, Ibero-americana
The conventional model of governance is based on the role of the State and its various organizations in making and implementing laws. This model is not only centered on the State, but is also hierarchical, with authoritative decisions made at the top of the hierarchy of government flowing downward through the remainder of the system to the public. Further, in this conventional model most of the action of governing occurs within government itself, excluding actors in the civil society as well and international actors that may have some influence on decisions. Much of this model is also premised on a centralized state, with sub-national governments being largely dependent upon central government.
The conventional model of governance has been under attack from above, from below, and from outside. Indeed, scholars operating from a number of perspectives have tended to denigrate the role of the State and government in the process of governing, and assume that it is possible to have "governance without government" (Rhodes, 1997), or alternatively "policy without polity" (Hajer, 2003). For others the State is powerless in the face of a powerful international market (Strange, 1998; see Reich, 2005), or has been fundamentally changed in terms of structure as well as its own image (Migdal and Schlichte, 2005). The assumption is that the State is no longer capable of governing in any meaningful manner, and hence alternatives are necessary to provide direction to the economy and society.
Before moving to discuss important propositions about the changing role of the State in governing, I need to discuss the meaning of the term "governance". To some extent governance has been like words in Alice in Wonderland-it means exactly what each scholar wants it to mean. In particular, some scholars tend to beg the question of governance by arguing that any actions through which non-State actors influence actions and policy is "governance", thereby setting a very high standard for any action not to be governance. Thus, by definition, in this definition of the term the State is largely excluded from "governance".
In this paper I am conceptualizing governance more broadly. Governance will be used to mean the process of providing direction to the economy and society. Governance therefore is will be conceptualized as a goal directed activity, requiring the means of identifying what society wants to do, and then examining the means of achieving those collective goals. And it is important to note that any understanding of governance should focus attention on the pursuit of collective goals, rather than on the goals of individual actors or groups. Given that there is more than a little diversity in the goals being pursued by individual actors, governance therefore requires mechanisms for resolving the inherent conflicts, and that collective nature of the process in turn may return government and the State to a more central position in governing.1
This definition of governance does not beg the question about the role of State actions or social actors in the process, but instead leaves the role of those various actors open as an empirical question. Indeed, beginning with this definition, a major part of the analysis of the governance process is to determine the role of the various actors, and to understand something about the interaction of State, international and social actors involved in the process of governing. Few, if any, processes for steering society are so simple that any single actor will be able to determine the outcomes alone. That has almost certainly been true in the past (see Pierre and Peters, 2000) governing has become more complex and hence understanding the complexity have become at once more difficult and more necessary.
In addition to the generalized conception of governance, the term has been discussed with a number of adjectives (Adam, 2000). Most commonly, there has been a concern about "good governance", which has come to mean primarily governing, especially in less developed political systems, in a more open and transparent manner than has been true in those systems in the past. …

Patriots add to the defensive line
FOXBOROUGH -- The Patriots have added a little depth to its defensive line today by signing defensive lineman Eric Moore.
To make room for Moore, the Patriots released linebacker Pierre Woods. Moore has played four seasons in the NFL (2005-2008) but was playing in the UFL with the Florida Tuskers when the Patriots called.
"I'm very excited right now for the opportunity," Moore said. "I have the chance to come out and help this team."
Moore, who is 6-foot-4 and 268 pounds, said he plays defensive end. His NFL experience includes stops with the New York Giants (2005), New Orleans Saints (2006) and St. Louis Rams (2006-2008). He also was on the practice squad with the Carolina Panthers last season. He entered the 2010 preseason with the Panthers but was waived on Sept. 4.
Moore said he had plenty of reps in the UFL and said he will be prepared for the Patriots.
"I"m just trying to learn the plays and get out there and help out in any way I can right now," he said.
Moore played at Florida State and was a sixth-round draft pick by the Giants in 2005. He is originally from Florida and in high school played in an all-star game with Patriots defensive lineman Vince Wilfork.

Bonzo's picks, Week 1
Cold, Hard Football Facts for Sep 07, 2007
By Jonathan Comey
Cold, Hard Football Facts monkey tamer
While Bonzo the Idiot Monkey has proven to be little help to us in the area of thoughtful football analysis, he does have a knack for making good picks against the spread.
In 2005, Bonzo flipped a coin to determine the winner against the spread in each NFL game. And his record, quite frankly, was un-monkey like. Bonzo went an incredible 134-113-5, a 54.2 percent winning percentage that was better than any of the five experts on CBS Sportsline. Hell, people have started their own 1-900 service for less.
Not bad, for a coin-flipping monkey.
Then, on a crisp spring day in 2006, Bonzo got loose. We thought for sure he had perished in the wild, and even held a brief farewell ceremony. But miraculously, Bonzo returned this past spring, just in time for the draft and a barnstorming media tour, sporting a tattoo of Aaron Brooks on his leg and a purple mohawk.
But now that Bonzo is back to pick winners randomly, we have a new appreciation for the ol' mutt.
So, at great expense, we had groundbreaking software sent to us here at CHFF headquarters (the alley behind Steve's Sit 'n' Sip).
With "Monkey Translator 3000," we can now get some sense of Bonzo's thought process before he makes his random coin-flip selections. We'll convey those to you based on the software's interpretation -- interesting stuff, from a simian at least.
And as always, we'll be comparing the picks of our pigskin-prognosticating primate against those from the so-called "pundits" at CBS Sportsline (click here for theirs).
Can Bonzo pound the "pundits" again? Well, Bonzo is already off to a 1-0 start thanks to Indy's victory over New Orleans Thursday night, now here are the rest of his Week 1 picks.
Atlanta at Minnesota (-2.5): MIN
Bonzo's thoughts: Bonzo sleepy ... sleepy ... sleepy

If you're looking to buy a few new Xbox games for Black Friday, Microsoft has your back. They've slashed the prices on tons of Xbox 360 and Xbox One games for the next few days.
Amazon has announced its Thanksgiving weekend sales for video games and man they are complicated. The company will keep adding new discounts every few hours over Thanksgiving, Black Friday and...whatever this Saturday is called.
Avalanche Studios released the official system specifications for the PC version of Just Cause 3. They are and are not what you may have been expecting. The minimum requirements are definitely a lot higher than a few PC gamers were comfortable with, but the recommended settings weren't quite as steep as some other games.
Fallout fans will soon have a new way to experience the original game in the series. A group of modders is remaking the 1997 role-playing game within Fallout: New Vegas.
The new and yet-to-be-proven-to-be-improved Steam autumn sale is now live. The new change has gone underway by Valve and developers and publishers from the indie ranks to the AAA colonnades have made it known that their games are currently up and available for purchase at greatly discounted rates.
Nintendo of America has launched their Black Friday Sale a couple days early. They've slashed price on several 3DS and Wii U games available through their eShop.
World of Warcraft's upcoming expansion Legion will let players finally create Gnome Hunters. Aside from looking awesome, Gnome Hunters will also have access to a new set of pets.
Video games are frequently home to heartwarming stories and, sometimes, those tales of love and compassion spill over into the real world. Thats exactly what happened recently with Dying Light, with developer Techland doing something special to memorialize a young fan who succumbed to cancer earlier this year.
While some gamers may spend up to eight hours in the day playing a game and some people might consider that binge playing one gamer spent an entire decade living out of internet cafes after running away from home as a teenager, following a vicious fight with their parents.
Electronic Arts and DICE's Star Wars: Battlefront managed to get off to a strong start in the sales department. The game has managed to become EA's best selling digital title at launch with decent physical sales. They're following up this momentum with free DLC following the launch of the Jakku DLC.
Rainbow Six Siege was supposed to enter open beta today. However, Ubisoft has decided to delay the test indefinitely.
Just in time to give you something else to be thankful for over the holiday weekend, Sony has announced the latest additions to the PlayStation Plus library, which can be added to your digital game collection starting next Tuesday, Dec. 1.
The Game Awards 2015 is right around the corner, boasting nominations for some of the best games to arrive in the past 12 months. But no awards show would be complete without a few snubs, and we've gone ahead and narrowed those omissions down to our top five for the year.

Two 19th century carved Italian plaster cameos housed in a lovely gilt wood frame. A very handsome piece which would be stunning hung or placed on an easel. These plaster pieces were souvenirs for wealthy European travelers on the Grand Tour in the 1800's. The larger cameo is a Roman bust which measures 2" tall by 1.75" wide. A full length carving of a classical woman measures 1.5" tall by 1". They are numbered #9 and #28 which is typical of these pieces. Both are mounted on a soft green velvet and framed in a contemporary frame which compliments the pieces beautifully. Frame measures 9.5" by 7.5". A wonderful accessory to give a continental flair to your décor!

Top of newsbreakers. It's nice to see an ISU player continuing a good pro career!
Here is a link directly to his player profile on the same site.
Thanks for the link cyQlone!
Sadly I didn't know he was out half of last season with the blood clot. Now that I'm a member on here hopefully I'll stay up-to-date on my Cyclone knowledge.
Good to see this! I was worried he's get cut after the blood clot thing. Jordan is a hard worker and deserves everything he's earned, glad to see the Panthers have seen this in him too and rewarded him.
he has been a diamond in the rough all of his career, carolina is lucky to have him
Iowa State: Anyone who's a true college basketball fan needs to see a game at Hilton Coliseum. Nice is in the DNA of Iowans and the fans here are particularly gracious -- even when the home team loses but gives a great effort, they are appreciative.
ESPN.com picked Hilton Coliseum as the "Hot Arena" in the Big 12...coaches in the league noted that, "regardless of talent, the Cyclones have a home court like no other."

Great, thoughtful responses. Thank you. Black Unicorn, I especially like you're sociological approach. I agree the differences and permutations are varied and critical.
I believe monogamy becoming the norm is due to wanting to know who's whose child. There didn't use to be a way to tell who was the father otherwise, and when property started existing (in the form of land or whatever) and needing to be passed along, men would have wanted to make sure they passed it to their own children and not someone else's.
I believe that's the reason why monogamy was generally expected of women but not so much of males.
Then with gender equality came the notion that both should. Often gender equality comes in making the gender that has more freedom join the other rather than the opposite (or a compromise). It's rare that the gender who had less rights suddenly gets them all.
I think now we need to work on making it socially acceptable to decide for yourself what works for you without having to follow such models if they don't work for you.
I'm seeing the beginnings of the brainwashing in two of my daughters right now -- the 14 and 15 year olds. So much talk about cheating and all the drama and judging over it -- as if we expect kids at that age to "commit" to just one person, for the rest of time! I am appalled, at what my girls are being conditioned to believe. It's like watching them read dated history books, and sitting in class with a biased, ignorant teacher. I'm so glad you started this thread, because it will sure help me educate them, as to the history of all this nonsense. I just downloaded "Sex at Dawn" on my Kindle, so I think that will help too.
"Those who do not know history,
are condemned to repeat it"
-- right???
(I must say I am thankful to the reality tv show, "Sister Wives" -- my 14-year old keeps asking, "When can we get one?")
(I have yet to reply, "Honeybabes, we're actually much, much closer to getting a brother husband..." )
That's not to say there aren't plenty of "monogamous" tribes of people out there... there are. But I did place that word in quotes, because we're primates, and we get around. Even in what we regard as "monogamous" primates, they still have sex partners outside of their primary mate, and it's not uncommon at all.
I would consider the hypothesis that Humans have had a variety of relationship types in different settings for millions of years, to include monogamy, polygamy, polyandry, and group marriage, which could explain why different people need different things. How to test this? Now THERE'S yer problem...
This is an interesting thread. I don't think there is much I could add to it, as I don't really have a great knowledge of polyamory. But I want to read more of it nontheless. =]

From a strictly biological POV, men should invest in the children of their womb-sisters, for a lack of better word, i.e. women with whom they share a mother. Whereas before the advent of modern technologies of re-production, women always knew who was their child, men never really do. I think it's a trade-off between the avails of pregnancy and labour/security in the continuation of your line.
There are a lot of theories of 'monogamy' (most often single-standard) being the compromise between a woman wanting to have a strong male partner care for her and her offspring and a man wanting to impregnate as many women as possible somewhere in the dawn of time. I personally think these theories are way too biased by what we (think we) observe from modern and historical behavior standards. For example, these theories never explain why having an unrelated man take care of her and her baby would be so much more preferable for a woman than having a close relative be the man in the house (or the cave). Also, why a society would necessarily function better with multiple male-female couples than with larger family groups composed of women with men primarily affiliated with each other and their mother's/sister's house is never explained either.

The trouble for me in socio-biology that attempts to answer questions like 'How did monogamy/male dominance/homosexuality originate?' is that they take granted that we live in the best possible world from an evolutionary viewpoint. Evolution is blind; it would not care if humans never evolved. It does not strive for the best/most organized/most functional lifeforms, but rather by accident favors those individuals whose traits, again quite accidentally, match the environmental changes occurring. Recent evidence indicates that Neanderthals did not go extinct because they were less smart or evolved than Homo Sapiens; they were simply highly adjusted to very cold climes, and when the climate started to warm up, they lost the habitat they were most comfortable in.
Sorry, a ramble, but I do so like trashing evolutionary psychology.

There must be some evolutionary influence on behaviour, otherwise different species wouldn't have such different (usual) sexual patterns. For example, the other two chimpanzee species tend to use sex the way we'd use a polite handshake. Why don't humans?
My favourite book on this stuff is The Red Queen, by Matt Ridley. The later chapters are basically an exercise in comparative anthropology, except that instead of looking at different tribes he looks at different species. Birds in particular have a lot of different mating patterns, depending on the species' environment.
In my opinion, all forms of sexuality are natural. I mean, what's the alternative, them being artificial?
In comparison, no cars or pairs of glasses or computers are natural. Doesn't mean I'm going to stop using them.
Good point about how you can pass things through females. I think then I would add a lack of consideration for women. In a lot of societies, they had few rights, and using them to pass property might have felt like giving them too much importance.
I was reading the Amicus's closing arguments for the current BC polygamy case. One part I found interesting was a quote about how monogamy advantages men from a Darwinian point of view.
The basis was that, survival-wise, it's best for men to have as many mates as possible, and for women to have mates who can support the children they have. Therefore the Darwinian point of views sees these as the goals, and nothing about love, freedom, jealousy or anything like that.
From a Darwinian point of view, with polygamy women have the option to marry rich men. If they're already married, no problem, and they can support several wives. From that point of view, it's better for them than monogamy, in which men get "taken", and women have to marry men who are poorer.
Polygamy results in rich men having many wives, poor men having none. (Notice this is focusing on polygyny. I believe it's because it's also a study on patriarchal societies).
So, polygyny is better for all women (they all get to pick a mate who can support their kid better compared to who they could with monogamy) as well as for some men. But it's bad for some other men.
Therefore, the quote mentions how monogamy becomes a compromise between rich men and poor men. Rich men keep having first pick in mates, but have to limit themselves to one at a time. Poor men get to have wives that "trickle down" due to not being able to marry already married rich men. Women end up, on average, poorer and less supported, as do their children.
It was an interesting take, as people are quick to talk about how polygyny is bad for women. I thought a study about how monogamy might have been put in place to advantage men was definitely an interesting read.
Absolutely fascinating thread. WOW. If only more people would question this stuff!

When you need a good laugh, do you reach for a book? I don't. I expect books to move me deeply and submerge me in another reality. So when a novel makes me roar with laughter, it's always a delightful surprise.
Here are seven I found utterly hilarious.
Maria Semple is the author of Where'd You Go, Bernadette? (Little, Brown, $25.99)
I don't think I've laughed harder while reading a book. It features a hash-smoking, pill-popping poet in Spain on a fellowship. His Spanish is horrible, and he often finds himself in conversations he doesn't understand. Talking to a girl at a party: "I wanted to know what she had been crying about and I managed to communicate that desire mainly by repeating the words 'fire' and 'before.' She paused for a long moment and then began to speak; something about a home, but whether she meant a household or the literal structure I couldn't tell." The first time Lerner does this, it's funny; the second time it's really funny; the third time it's really, really funny; the fourth time it's less funny; the fifth time it's even less funny; the sixth time it's the funniest it's ever been, the seventh time even funnier. In rewrite rooms all over LA, this formula gets endlessly debated--until it's time to order lunch.
This is the only unapologetically comic novel on the list. There are sharp, gorgeously crafted jokes on every page. When I wrote for TV, I was more of a story person. Jokes scared me. They still do. So when I come across a book this dense with jokes, I bow down in awe. All hail, Steve Hely!
I've given this book to twenty people; all have cherished it. It's a coming-of-age story about a sharp but unsophisticated girl who falls in love with a family of English intellectuals in general, and two of its sons in particular. The book is packed with romance and carnality, despair and wit. Its shocking lack of sentimentality makes me laugh each time I read it. I can't pick up this book without holding it to my heart and feeling all smiley.
It's mild torture to try to pick a favorite from St. Aubyn's five Patrick Melrose novels. But the dinner party scene from Some Hope, in which a French ambassador accidentally splashes gravy on Princess Margaret, might be the most twisted, horrifying moment in these great, stylish books. St. Aubyn writes the sharpest, funniest dialogue I've ever read. If I could manage to write even one of St. Aubyn's exchanges, I'd have to take to bed and spend a day recovering. But St. Aubyn doesn't stop at one exchange. He tops himself continuously, going on and onto such dizzying heights that just thinking about it makes me feel I might have to take to bed after all.
Matthew Kneale has written two perfect novels, this one and When We Were Romans. English Passengers is a staggering accomplishment, an epic epistolary novel about a sinister anthropologist, a buffoonish vicar, and a boatful of criminally minded Manx sailors who set sail to Tasmania in hopes of discovering the Garden of Eden. The book is full of terrifically funny and outrageous set pieces. In one, it's Sunday at sea and the vicar has insisted on delivering a sermon to the extremely displeased crew. The anthropologist, to mess with the vicar and amuse the crew, decides he will give his own presentation, and sets about hypnotizing the vicar. But he gets outsmarted by the rowdy sailors (who, he finds out, loathe him even more than they do the vicar) and is forced to try his pseudoscience on the ship's beloved pig. See what I'm sayin'?
Single-mindedness is funny, which is probably why this is the third book I've mentioned that features a drug addict. DeWitt's second novel, the comic The Sisters Brothers, has been deservedly lavished with praise. But his debut, about a passive, drug-addicted bartender, is a hilarious, horrifying gem.
Being a writer is a series of humiliations. Nobody has captured this better than Jonathan Franzen. Early in The Corrections, Chip finally turns in the screenplay he's been working on for years, one he's certain will deliver him fame, respect, and sexual rewards. The moment he drops it in the mailbox, he suddenly realizes how truly horrible and embarrassing it is. I don't think there's a writer out there who hasn't felt this nightmarish, nausea-inducing clarity upon handing in a script, article, or Huffington Post slideshow.

Jesus has risen
1When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they might go to anoint Jesus' body. 2Very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they were on their way to the tomb 3and they asked each other, 'Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?'
4But when they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away. 5As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed.
6'Don't be alarmed,' he said. 'You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him. 7But go, tell his disciples and Peter, "He is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you." '
8Trembling and bewildered, the women went out and fled from the tomb. They said nothing to anyone, because they were afraid.#Some manuscripts have the following ending between verses 8 and 9, and one manuscript has it after verse 8 (omitting verses 9-20): Then they quickly reported all these instructions to those around Peter. After this, Jesus himself also sent out through them from east to west the sacred and imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation. Amen.
[The earliest manuscripts and some other ancient witnesses do not have verses 9 – 20.]
9When Jesus rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had driven seven demons. 10She went and told those who had been with him and who were mourning and weeping. 11When they heard that Jesus was alive and that she had seen him, they did not believe it.
12Afterwards Jesus appeared in a different form to two of them while they were walking in the country. 13These returned and reported it to the rest; but they did not believe them either.
14Later Jesus appeared to the Eleven as they were eating; he rebuked them for their lack of faith and their stubborn refusal to believe those who had seen him after he had risen.
15He said to them, 'Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. 16Whoever believes and is baptised will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. 17And these signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; 18they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on people who are ill, and they will get well.'
19After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven and he sat at the right hand of God. 20Then the disciples went out and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with them and confirmed his word by the signs that accompanied it.

Re: They are going ahead with a Justice League movie
I still dont quite believe this movie is actually going to happen, there maybe alot of "will" for this movie to happen from fans and DC/WB looking at the much greener grass on Marvel / Disneys lawn, but despite reports, I just dont see it happening. Having a film in development is obviously not the same as filming.
Meanwhile if Man of Steel flops, that would kill this, they cant launch a Justice League movie on the back of a Superman flop, and the studio will need to wait a couple of years, before they can revive Superman.
As bad as the Green Lantern movie was, that is not a problem for this movie.
Assuming Superman is a hit, I think the biggest problem is making a new Batman work after the highly successful trilogy.

text: 350 art works spread across 760 square-kilometer (293 square-mile), the Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennial is perhaps the largest art event of its kind in Asia. Its creation was in part to address an area in need. The Niigata Prefecture in Eastern Japan, like many other rural areas in Japan, is experiencing a rapid "depopulation" in recent years as residents moved to urban centers for better opportunities. By permitting artists to transform these abandoned landscapes, the Triennial organizers hope to revitalize these regions into creative hubs, even if it is temporary. In promoting the event, Satoshi Suzuki of Loopwheeler designed several items, including the long-sleeve t-shirt seen above. Constructed from premium cotton jersey weaved by loopwheel looms, each is transformed by graphics resembling sponsors on a cycling jersey. Further tying the 2 concepts together, Loopeheeler coined the term "Tour de Tsumari", in reference to the most famous cycling race, Tour de France.
