Hi, I have lost my virginity 3 years back. I also had an abortion based on tablet method when I was 1 and half months pregnant. Will my anyone be able to detect that I lost my virginity if they have intercourse with me? Please help!
There is no way that any sexual partner of yours would be able to tell that you've had sex before unless you tell them.
Here's the thing though; even strictly sexual relationships require honesty. You need to be honest about your sexual history because when you're involved in a sexual relationship, it can affect your partner too. And if you're looking for a long term relationship, you REALLY need to be honest. Starting off a relationship with a lie (even though you think it might never matter, it matters) is never a good idea.
You need to ask yourself why you feel the need to lie about your history to a potential partner. Are you scared they might reject you? If so, perhaps this isn't the right person for you afterall. Are you ashamed of it? Are you scared others might find out? If, for whatever reason, you think you may not be able to trust this potential partner, you may want to consider not having a sexual relationship with them in the first place.

House of Windsor
Posted by Cynthia | Filed under Musings
Veranda Magazine published this designer home over the summer, designed by Windsor Smith in collaboration with several well known L.A. guest designers. Created as a showhouse to raise money for charity, each designer decorated an area of the home. Even with multiple designers onboard, the home hangs together as one cohesive project. I held on to the images, as I found it to be fresh and stylized, and at the same time absolutely timeless. Details such as moulding and custom woodwork bring a level of sophistication to the space. Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin reportedly purchased the home post show when it went on the market. An 8,000 s.f. estatewith 6 bedrooms and 8 baths, is somehow modest in feel due the the scale, furniture and finish choices. An abundance of light fills the whitewashed rooms, creating a warming glow. I am taken by the down to earth quality of the home. Doesn't it feel comfortable? Like you might pull up a chair and gather in the kitchen for coffee. Now wouldn't that be a treat?

Thoughts on Writing
- "[M]any of us write unclearly not because we choose to, but because we are seized by a kind of literary asphasia, a dismaying experience that renders us unable to write as well as we though we once could, or in some severe cases, unable to write at all. This typically happens when we are learning to think and write in a new academic or professional field, when we start to write about matters we do not entirely understand for readers who do. The afflicted include not just undergraduates taking their first course in economics or psychology, but graduate students, business people, doctors, lawyers, professors—anyone writing about a new topic, aimed at readers who are unfamiliar to them and therefore intimidating.
As we struggle to master complex ideas, many of us, probably most of us, have to pass through this period of stylistic confusion. If you find yourself in that situation, your floundering should dismay you less if you know you are sharing an experience endured by generations of other writers. You will discover that you can write more clearly once you more clearly understand what you are writing about." - Joseph M. Williams, Style: Ten Lessons in Clarity and Grace, 6th ed. (NY: Longman, 2000), p. 11
- "Now, it is clear that the decline of a language must ultimately have political and economic causes: it is not due simply to the bad influence of this or that individual writer. But an effect can become a cause, reinforcing the original cause and producing the same effect in an intensified form, and so on indefinitely. A man may take to drink because he feels himself to be a failure, and then fail all the more completely because he drinks. It is rather the same thing that is happening to the English language. It becomes ugly and inaccurate because our thoughts are foolish, but the slovenliness of our language makes it easier for us to have foolish thoughts. The point is that the process is reversible. Modern English, especially written English, is full of bad habits which spread by imitation and which can be avoided if one is willing to take the necessary trouble. If one gets rid of these habits one can think more clearly, and to think clearly is a necessary first step toward political regeneration: so that the fight against bad English is not frivolous and is not the exclusive concern of professional writers." - George Orwell, "Politics and the English Language

External devices
From Livestream » User Guide
Start broadcasting like a pro! In this section, you will find links and advices about the best equipment and setup, such as suggested by the Mogulus producers.
Every webcam should do the job! Whether you have an in built camera or an external webcam, plug it into your computer and select the input in your videosources. Be careful: IP camera's are not supported by Flash and do not work in the Mogulus studio!
The webcams we suggest:
With Mogulus, you can also use videocameras. Connect your videocamera to your computer, using a Firewire or USB cable. You can then select it in the videosources!
Any DV, HD,... camera should do the job!
Please check with your camera provider if your device is Flash supported!
Connect only one camera per computer! If you wish to use multiple camera's, plug them into different computers and login to your studio on each computer. You can then switch easily from one camera to another.
For more information on audio and video set ups, go to :
We unfortunately don't provide simple live audio streaming, however, one of our producers Moohead (http://www.mogulus.com/mooheadradio) has a radio show and has given us his recipe for sound streaming:
Here is the entire audio chain:
Behringer B-1 Mic plugged via XLR connector to a Mackie 1402 VLZ Pro Mixer. Mixer Tape Out to line in of desktop (this is for the audio stream and audio archive of the show)
Phone Calls"': We use a Comrex Stac 6 phone interface mated with 2 Vonage IP phone lines plus a transparent 877 number from Vonage. This allows our viewers to call in toll free! We use a standard handset phone that hooks into the Stac 6 handset hardware. I answer calls as the lines light up. The Stac 6 controls caller levels.
Studio cohost: We use 2 Comrex Access units. These devices connect my co-host and I together through the internet WITHOUT TYING UP A PHONE LINE! The Comrex Access connects to a static IP port in my cable modem. Even though we are 2000 miles apart, we sound like we are in the studio together. The Comrex Access utilizes low latency audio codecs so we have virtually no lag, as well as high fidelity. This is important because it enables us to send one high quality audio signal to the Mogulus studio, containing both of us, as well as our phone callers.
Mogulus Studio: Next we run from the Main Out of our Mackie Console to the Line In of a laptop that is ethernet connected to my cable modem. We have a 15Mbps download, 2Mbps upload broadband connection. This sends all of our show audio to the Mogulus Studio, so everyone can be heard. Finally, we connect the laptop USB out to our Mackie Channel strip, using a USB sound card. This enables viewers to hear all audio from the videos we pull from the internet and create ourselves. All we do is "un-mute" the channel whenever we run a video that originates from the Mogulus Studio.
Video: I use a Canon GL1 3 CCD camera plugged into the laptop via firewire. This camera can be manually adjusted for low light performance. My co-host uses a standard high end webcam!
The end result is a program with sound quality that equals FM radio at its best.
You can stream your desktop, a videogame or a movie into your Mogulus studio. To do so, you need a capturing software such as: webcammax for PC
http://www.webcammax.com or camtwist for Mac
Download the application, open it and select your frame. The software will appear in your video sources inside the studio.
Check out our demo video below.
Chroma Key software
According to Wikipedia:
Chroma key: Chroma key is a technique for mixing two images together, in which a color (or a small color range) from one image is removed (or made transparent), revealing another image behind it. This technique is also referred to as color keying, colour-separation overlay (CSO; primarily by the BBC[1]), greenscreen, and bluescreen. It is commonly used for weather forecast broadcasts, wherein the presenter appears to be standing in front of a large map, but in the studio it is actually a large blue or green background.The meteorologist stands in front of a bluescreen, and then different weather maps are added on those parts in the image where the color is blue. If the meteorologist himself wears blue clothes, his clothes will become replaced with the background video. This also works for greenscreens, since blue and green are considered the colors least like skin tone.(...)
Chroma Key Software has the advantage of being cheap but does not enable you to stream live while performing chroma key effects. You will need to pre record your content and upload it to your Mogulus studio.
Here are a some links:
Real time effects!
This software is an amazing tool but requires lots of practice, time and knowledge! http://www.troikatronix.com/isadora.html

Using Romney's methodology, independent gubernatorial candidate Angus King paid an average of 15 percent in federal income taxes over the past seven years.
PORTLAND, Maine (AP) _ Figures released by independent U.S. Senate candidate Angus King showing he paid average federal income taxes of 22.2 percent over the last seven years would be different if he'd calculated it the same way as Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney.
Using Romney's methodology, King paid an average of 15 percent, less than many middle-class Americans.
King's accountant, Scott Small, said he based his calculation on taxable income after personal exemptions and itemized deductions. Romney used an adjusted gross income figure.
Democrat Cynthia Dill called on the three leading candidates to release their tax returns. King, a self-made millionaire, earned more on an annual basis than Dill and Republican Charlie Summers combined.

Anyway, yeah looks like I had a lot of luck for this game, managing to take out King Verlaat twice with lucky attacks and agi rolls. But I just love the Chamail>2nd shrine SS combo. I can't claim credit as the first to use it though, but I can't remember who I got it from.

Michelle Montanius is a character from the Grand Theft Auto series who can be heard in both Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories on Vice City Public Radio (VCPR).
Michelle Montanius is a reporter and later co-host of Vice City Public Radio. She has previously dated Maurice Chavez, the host of the Pressing Issues show on the same network, and refers to him as a "asshole". In Vice City Stories it is revealed that Michelle Montanius is pregnant with Chavez's child, although she continually asks him to marry her or pay for an abortion. In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, the pregnancy was not mentioned, and it is presumed that she had an abortion.
However, by 1986 things presumably have picked up for Michelle money wise, as she owns two homes. During the breaks between Pressing Issues, Michelle and Jonathan continue to try and get listeners to donate 10% of their income to the station. However, she refuses to give out the information of where to send the money, telling the listeners to find the address themselves. She continues to berate the listeners and people of Vice City, even calling listeners who haven't donated to the show thieves. Michelle and Jonathan also read out advertisements for companies who have sponsored the show, including Dileo and Furax.
It could be assumed that Michelle and Jonathan may have had a brief chemistry with each other. During a commercial break in Vice City Stories, Jonathan said, "Don't worry Michelle, I'll make that circus clown pay!", hinting that maybe they were heading into a relationship.

Memorial planned for final Rondo neighborhood building on November 2
Memorial services are being planned by Rondo Avenue, Inc. (RAI) for one of the last two remaining members of the original Rondo neighborhood family of buildings in St. Paul, which succumbed suddenly to the wrecking ball on Saturday, September 18. The building at 820-822 Rondo Avenue was 97 years old. It was preceded in destruction by more than 80 siblings, who developed terminal cases of eminent domain beginning in the late 1950s. The building was born on the corner of Rondo and Fisk in 1916 and served as the home of Emmett McGill's Grocery Store until 1957. Continue Reading →

While you're frying up some eggs and bacon, we're cooking up something else: a way to celebrate today's food holiday.
February is National Hot Breakfast Month!
Nutritionists will tell you that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Starting out on a full stomach helps keep you alert and focused well into the day.
If you're not a morning person, taking the extra time cook, eat and clean up might not sound worth it. Oatmeal might be the perfect solution. It can be made quickly in a microwave and you can customize it to your taste. Add some fruit and nuts and you've got yourself a warm, filling, balanced meal.
If time isn't an issue, the full egg and bacon breakfast certainly is an option. Biscuits fresh from a cast-iron skillet with fluffy eggs and crispy bacon make getting to the weekend easier.
A hot breakfast on a cold day is the perfect motivation to get out of bed and get going. What's your favorite hot breakfast?

In 1969 Nigerian musician-composer Fela Anikulapo Kuti, visiting the U.S., encountered Sandra Smith of the Black Panther Party. Smith's (today her last name is Isadore) fiery commitment to flying in the face of social and political oppression so inspired Kuti that on returning home, he fostered the genre Afrobeat, a fusion of African and American styles that, most significantly, incorporated political commentary.

Fall brings out all of our favorite flavors.
1. We don't care how cliché it is. We want everything pumpkin. Right now.
2. Can we also get a round of applause for all things apple? Fall isn't over until we hit the orchard.
3. Then there's maple. It comes from trees, which means it's basically as healthy as salad…

Pakpour Consulting Group Leads Municipal Civil Engineering with Ongoing Carbon Neutrality
Pakpour Consulting Group believes that environmental stewardship is everyone's responsibility, and as civil engineers tasked with providing safe, clean water and air to the communities it serves, PCG chose to be at the forefront of the fight against global warming and hope to lead other civil engineering firms to follow suit so it can become the first industry to achieve carbon neutrality.
"As a certified green business in Alameda County, going to a zero carbon footprint was the natural next step for us. Environmental stewardship is everyone's responsibility, and as civil engineers tasked with providing safe, clean water and air to our communities we should be at the forefront of the fight against global warming," stated Joubin Pakpour, P.E., president of Pakpour Consulting Group. "We hope other civil engineering firms will follow suit so we can become the first industry to achieve a zero footprint."
"Carbonfund.org's mission is to improve the world by helping people reduce their environmental footprint. Their goal is to provide a forum for the massive and growing, but mostly unconnected majority of people – whether they think of themselves as citizens or business people, parents or consumers, activists or theorists who want to do the right thing. Action is impossible without information. Pakpour Consulting Group is proud to be working with Carbonfund.org."
Pakpour Consulting Group provides comprehensive municipal civil engineering design and construction management services for a wide variety of public projects. Services include serving as contract district engineer, water distribution systems engineering, civil plan review, transportation engineering, sewer and storm drainage design, hydrology studies, program management services, constructability review and construction management.
Since 2007, Pakpour Consulting Group has monitored, measured and ultimately neutralized its environmental footprint. Pakpour Consulting Group offsets the carbon emissions used in producing its supplies such as paper and packaging and its office electricity by supporting Carbonfund.org's carbon reduction, clean air technology and forest preservation projects. In the past five years, Pakpour Consulting Group has neutralized over 500,000 pounds of greenhouse gas emissions through Carbonfund.org – the same quantity of emissions produced by the average passenger car driving almost 550,000 miles.
"As part of this process we scrutinized almost all of our day to day operations and through innovative approaches, we now recycle 80% of our waste and have reduced our paper usage by 13% while the company has doubled in size," stated Pakpour.
In addition to the operational emissions measurement, reduction and mitigation, Pakpour Consulting Group is helping to restore the natural resources used to manufacture paper and other office supplies through tree planting, watershed restoration and conservation projects. Carbonfund.org appreciates the commitment to environmental leadership and action that Pakpour Consulting Group continues to demonstrate through these company-wide efforts.
ETMG Reaches Sixth Anniversary as CarbonFree® Business with Unique Client Offsetting Program
The environmental movement today requires individual and collective efforts that reach beyond one's personal impact on the earth to make a difference. The CarbonFree® Business Partnership program gives companies of all sizes a simple and affordable way to neutralize their annual operational emissions, but our programs also create opportunities to go beyond direct impact.
One of our CarbonFree® Partners, Envision Technology Marketing Group (ETMG), a totally virtual marketing firm and a certified green business, is celebrating its sixth year CarbonFree® while maintaining an innovative additional emissions offsetting program that recognizes each new purchase order opened by their clients each quarter.
For the past six years, ETMG has donated 500 pounds of carbon credits through Carbonfund.org for every new purchase order. To date, and including ETMG's own aggregate CarbonFree® Partner offsets, ETMG has neutralized over 1.85 million pounds of greenhouse gas emissions by supporting clean energy technology and clean air projects around the world. That equates to taking 175 cars off the road for a year or equals the amount of carbon dioxide sequestered annually by 688 acres of US forestland.
ETMG chose to partner with Carbonfund.org after careful research, based on the high impact green causes Carbonfund.org supports, and the success the foundation has had creating momentum around environmental issues.
"Taking care of our environment has become part of our central mission to provide a unique and affordable service offering to our clients," explains Michael Grodin, co-founder of ETMG. "Our ability to leverage cutting-edge technology for all our communications and operational needs is a tribute to our clients, and the incredible products they develop, and showcases the possibilities of a new era of conservation."
This spring, ETMG produced a clever Infographic that explores the impact of their sustainability efforts. Carbonfund.org is very happy to partner with an innovative firm such as ETMG, leading its industry in helping transition to a cleaner energy future and healthier environment.

Title : Would you like to see.
Format : song
Composer : Dunbar, William (b.1853? d.1874)
Production details : publisher : Stephenson and DrydenSt. Nicholas Church Yard, Newcastle upon Tyne, Tyne and Wear
Date : 1874
Collection name : Local and other songs, recitations, and conundrums, a local tale etc.
Comic song to be sung to the tune of Down among the coals.
This song was written by William Dunbar and printed in 1874. Dunbar began his life in the service of Gateshead painter and glazier, Mr. Romanis. After working for a short time in the service of a Felling cartwright, he spent the remainder of his life in the coal pits. He varied the monotony of the pit life by appearing at amateur concerts at which, although not much of a singer, he was always well received. Along with his talent for composing, Dunbar had a decided taste for drawing and spent much of his spare time producing water-colours and pencil sketches. During the last few years of his life he spent most of his time writing pieces for the local annuals, published by J.W. Chater of Newcastle. He won a number of medals and competitions and on his death in 1874 was fondly remembered with a number of tributes in Chater's publications.
'We're seldom what we shud be' forms part of a small song book published by Stevenson and Dryden of Newcastle. It contains over 40 pages of local songs composed by Dunbar, along with extracts from 'Chater's Diary and Local Remembrancer'. Most of the songs are given the tune to which they were intended to be sung and are classified into 'local', 'motto', or 'comic' song types. The book was published in 1874, probably on the death of William Dunbar.

Read the article before you jump to conclusions, but this is VERY interesting.Forum: The Holders Posted:12/20/2011 7:30:02 AMIn any city, in any country, go to any mental institution or halfway house you can get yourself to. When you reach the front desk, ask to visit someone who calls herself "The Holder of Nothing." Should a look of sheer, primal disgust mar the worker's expression, you will then be taken to a separate building, one that appears to be an old, wooden outhouse. Inside will be a seemingly endless corridor far, far longer than the length of the outhouse. The corridor will be completely silent. Attempting to make any sound at the wrong time is a grievous, lamentable mistake. You will notice the lights in the corridor getting brighter and brighter as you make your way down towards the end, soon you will be blinded by their brilliance. If at any point the lights go out, quickly shout out, "No! Stop! What you are doing is wrong!" while backing away. If the lights do not come back on, bolt for the door you came in through. It should still be open; hopefully you aren't far enough down the hallway for it to close on you. If it does close, an eternity in hell would be far preferable to what you will suffer. If the lights come back on, continue walking down the corridor. At the end of the hall will lie a single cell; the worker will open the door for you while glaring at you in disgust. Inside the cell will be a mad pastiche of colors, arranged in several harlequin-like formations. You must not be distracted by them, for at the center of a room is a naked young woman, slathered in blood and bound by strips of human sinew. If you take your eyes off her even for a moment, she will completely and totally destroy you. She will only respond to one question: "What were they when they were one?" She will then stare into your eyes and speak the answer in incredible detail. It will be unlike anything you have ever heard; you will be on the verge of both ecstasy and agony at her mere words. It is not uncommon for a Seeker to lose themselves in the euphoria. The worst thing you can do, however, is look upon the tattoo on her chest. Your mind will tempt you to gaze upon it, but you must resist. If you do not, and foolishly set eyes upon it, you will fall victim to her horrifying powers. She will flay you alive and add your mutilated flesh to her bindings, and you will remain trapped with her, fully conscious, for the rest of time. That tattoo is Object 4 of 538.

Born Ernst Wilhelm Wenders on Aug. 14, 1945 in Düsseldorf, Germany, he was the son of Heinrich Wenders, a prominent surgeon. Raised Catholic, Wenders briefly entertained the idea of entering the priesthood until his fascination with photography and Americana - in particular, B-movies and rock-n-roll - pulled him in a more earthly direction. After graduating from high school, he enrolled at schools in Freiberg, Munich and back to Dusseldorf, where he dabbled with studies in medicine, philosophy and sociology, before dropping out of school entirely in 1966. That year, Wenders made the move to Paris, France, where he attempted to enroll in art and film schools. Rejected by two separate institu... Continue Bio >>

It's a relief to hear tropical storm Alberto is headed out to sea just 8 months after Hurricane Irene devastated parts of the east. People are still rebuilding their homes and businesses from that storm.
On the crystal coast where the tourism season is just about to kick off, we spoke with people about our brush with Alberto.
Beaches along the crystal coast Monday were busy with families and friends enjoying the warm day. Clouds and threatening rain loomed in the distance in Pine Knoll Shores. Some had their on on the skies, other on the water for possible rip currents.
Forecaster with the National Weather Service Brian Cullen in Newport says for the next 48 hours rip currents will have the biggest impact in the east.
"More than likely through the day today. Then continue on Tuesday. Then the threat will be more than likely diminishing on Wednesday," said Cullen.
Cullen says early hurricane season projections say it will be a less active season, but he says the official forecast for hurricanes comes out Thursday and that will have a better indication on what can be expected this season.
Hurricane season officially starts June 1st.

These men had coal in their veins and patriotism in their hearts, which is why these pieces make such astonishing additions to any Halloween party.

Following Mississippi State's 41-34 loss to Auburn on Saturday, BulldogBlitz sent out a mass text message to several of MSU's top recruits asking their thoughts on the game.Here are their reactions...Kivon Coman - "I feel like they had some bad calls and they played through adversity. I still think they will come out on top at the end of the season!"Nelson Adams - "I think the defense has to play better. I think they played hard but came up a little short."Quadry Antoine - "It was a tough loss. I thought the refs had some bad calls but they just have to keep their heads up and not let it get to them. I think they are going to be alright."Devon Bell - "Put it in the past and worry about LSU."Cole Carter - "I thought they responded really well being down two touchdowns. Vick Ballard played amazing and the defense came up strong after struggling. The offense, without the starting left tackle and then Quentin (Saulsberry) getting injured, played well. It was a great game to watch."Lelland Ducksworth - "I watched the game and thought that Mississippi State did great but then in order to win a game a team must win the turnover battle. The turnover at the beginning of the game hurt them but I'm sure they will rebound from that loss."Torrey Bell - "I think there were a few small mistakes made on defense. Things happen but they are still the best team in the SEC. I can't wait to dress in maroon and white."Frederick Brown - "I thought the game was very good. Very exciting. A lot of big hits and runs and a couple of catches. I thought MSU was gonna win it."Will Redmond - "It was a good game, which we should've won. But throughout the game it showed the fight the team has and that they are tough. It's gonna be tough to beat them."Deonte Evans - "I thought they were a little slow at the beginning but they picked it up and played hard all the way to the end and just came up short. I'm just happy they never gave up."A.J. Jefferson - "I really think they should've beat Auburn. It was still a real good game. They impressed me a whole lot." ...More...

Rated 5 out of 5 by shortnanc Best catalog purchase ever! Bought this for my son's wedding in Williamsburg, VA where it was humid and 93 degrees. It was the perfect touch to my black sleeveless dress. Got lots of compliments. I had not found exactly what I wanted and when the TravelSmith catalog arrived, I ordered it right away. So glad. It is exactly as pictured. Just enough cover-up. August 17, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Reese Beautiful! This jacket fit perfect. It is very light and dresses up a black dress great! Just perfect for granddaughter's wedding on the beach! I love it. Very well made. Don't hesitate to purchase! July 16, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by kajosp very attractive I tend to fit in between size ranges (size 8 - 10) depending on the garment. I tried the medium, but it was too large for my liking. The small fit just fine. This is nice and light for summer weather and dressy. It's made very well... just a little pricier I felt, but then again it's worth it and goes well with the sleeveless travel dress. May 8, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Singing2 What a beautiful jacket!! I am so glad I bought this jacket. It can dress up anything you want to pair it with. I bought it to go with an LBD to wear to a May wedding in Florida. I definitely need to keep cool in style. I first thought size medium would be right for me, but with this particular jacket, petite medium was much more flattering. I'm excited to wear it to my niece's wedding. I got a good price on the jacket with specials, so for me it is a good value. If you have to pay full price and have to watch how you spend your money, then this may not be for you. But for me it's a great buy to wear with the crepe paneled sleeveless black dress. My arms will be covered without added weight or warmth. Btw nicknames Singing and Singing2 are both me. I can't manage to submit with my original nickname so I modified it. May 7, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by Libbygirl Nice jacket I loved the look and fit of this jacket. It was just what I hoped it would be and will do quite nicely for me. The only downside was the price. April 21, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by kajosp very attractive I ordered the size MP, but sent it back for the SP. I tend to fit in between size categories, and although the MP fit, it was a little roomier than I wanted. I know the smaller size will be fine. It really looks sharp with the sleeveless back travel dress. April 21, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by MommaB Great buy! This was my first purchase from Travel Smith. I was extremely pleased and will definitely recommend them to my friends! April 21, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by FashionableMom Excellent light season wrap Very nicely finished, oK for moderate to very dressy events, the mesh is lighter than expected but also softer. Construction makes the fit great, however, and places seams just where needed. I've waited several years for this and hoped it would go on sale, never did but is worth it anyway. April 8, 2015

The Real St. Patrick Didn't Wear Green
And he probably didn't drive the snakes out of Ireland. But he did spread Christianity throughout the Emerald Isle.
St. Patrick's Day in the United States means clover-colored clothing, paper shamrocks, bagpipes, Irish folk music and dancing, corned beef and cabbage, green beer.
Often, the man of honor gets lost. At its core, the holiday is a holy recognition of St. Patrick's commitment to spreading Christianity throughout Ireland. It falls on March 17, the day he is believed to have died more than 1,500 years ago.
Over the centuries, Ireland's patron saint has become a mythical figure, widely pictured with a long beard, standing tall on the lush Irish coast in ceremonial robes, wearing a bishop's miter (or hat), holding a shepherd's staff. Snakes scatter from his feet.
It's an image that feeds into widely held misconceptions. To set the record straight:
"There is a huge contrast between the historical St. Patrick and the legendary St. Patrick," said Dermot Quinn, author of "The Irish in New Jersey: Four Centuries of American Life" and history professor at Seton Hall University in South Orange, N.J.
"All sorts of things get folded into the memory of the saints."
Historians reason that St. Patrick was the son of an aristocratic landowner, captured by marauders when he was about 16, taken to Ireland and made a slave. During six years sheepherding in relative solitude, he found God.
Patrick escaped and returned to Britain, but he longed to one day minister to the Irish. He studied for the priesthood and eventually was ordained a bishop. Sources vary on Patrick's timeline, but in the early 430s, Pope Celestine sent Patrick back to Ireland.

Katy Perry and John Mayer Are Having "Sleepovers" at John's House
It sounds like things are moving forward for KATY PERRY and JOHN MAYER.
--A source says Katy has been having SLEEPOVERS at John's house, which is in a gated community in L.A. . . . quote, "It's very private and they've been sneaking in and out. It has been going on for a while."
--This past weekend they attended a party at the home of a Hollywood talent agent, and the "guests" included creatures from a wild animal preserve, including a kangaroo and an alligator.
--A source says, quote, "They were really cute. They were standing near each other most of the night, playing with the animals outside. [They] definitely enjoyed each other's company.
--"They almost acted like they've been a couple for a long time. It definitely didn't seem like a new relationship."
Zac Brown Went "Midget Bowling" at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally
ZAC BROWN was at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota over the weekend . . . and while there he tried his hand at "Midget Bowling". Yes, bowling using a little person as the ball.
--Actually, it's more like "a modified slip and slide".
--Now, if this makes your "politically correct" antennae go up . . . you should hear what "Short Sleeve Sampson" has to say. He's the little person who was "being rolled", so to speak. He told TMZ that Zac did nothing wrong.
--In fact, Sampson said he's PROUD of Zac's skills . . . because he nailed a strike on his very first roll.
--Still, I can't help but think of Dwarf Tossing, which is against the law in certain parts of the country. But Sampson says the difference is that no one is ever tossed into the air . . . and there's little chance anyone will get hurt.
Robert Pattinson Will Be on the "Daily Show" Monday
"Good Morning America" thought it had the first post-heartbreak interview with ROBERT PATTINSON . . . but that's no longer the case.
--Pattinson will appear on "The Daily Show With Jon Stewart" Monday night . . . two days before he does "GMA".
--Pattinson will be promoting his upcoming movie "Cosmopolis". There's no official word if he'll talk about KRISTEN STEWARTduring either appearance.
--But a so-called "source" told the website GossipCop.com, quote, "He's never talked about his personal relationships before, and he's not going to start next week."
Rob Kardashian is Going to Law School
ROB KARDASHIAN is following in the footsteps of his father and namesake . . . by going to law school. He just Tweeted that he's starting classes soon at USC.
(--Robert Sr., who died of esophageal cancer in 2003, helped get O.J. Simpson acquitted of double-murder. )
Snoop Lion Says He's Now in the Business of Making "Positive" Music
When SNOOP DOGG was Snoop Dogg, he did a lot of gangsta songs, but now that he's SNOOP LION, his goal is to create FEEL GOOD music. He says, quote, "The world needs positivity and music that feels good, because music is relief.
--"That's what it does: It relieves your pain, it relieves anything that you're going through. When you go to a club or go in your car and put on your music it's for relief."
Joss Whedon Will Write and Direct the "Avengers" Sequel
If you liked "The Avengers" . . . and saw it 5 times like I did . . . this is good news: JOSS WHEDON will return to write and direct the sequel.
--Meanwhile, Whedon is also developing a TV series for ABC based on the Marvel Comics universe. That's all we know about it at this point. There's no word if it'll be connected to "The Avengers", which is a Marvel property.
Seven Days of Olympics Coverage Took the Top Seven Spots in the Ratings
The Olympics are in full swing, and apparently, it's all anybody's watching on TV. Seven days of Olympics overage took the top seven spots in the ratings, ranging from 25.1 million viewers at #1, to 18.3 million at #7.
--The most-watched night was last Tuesday's events. That included the Women's Gymnastics Team Final where Team USA won gold . . . and MICHAEL PHELPS earning Silver in the 200-meter Butterfly and Gold in the 200-meter Freestyle Relay.
--That's also the same night that Phelps first broke the record to become the most decorated Olympic athlete of all time, with a total of 19 medals. (--He went on to break his own record three more times to end his career with 22 medals.)
