Australian actor, Chris Hemsworth, has learned what every college-going male has known for decades. Make vague and obvious statements about women's rights and women will forget about all the other girls you've fucked. Australians are slow. And sexist. And alcoholics.

Mark Kirk is doing what?!
GOP Cap-and-taxer Mark Kirk voted on Friday with the Democrat majority to impose a massive national energy tax on Americans in the name of stopping global warming. Rep. Kirk and his fellow capntraitors ignored EPA's suppression campaign and supported increasing your utility bills and killing jobs despite mounting doubts about both the science and cost-benefit wisdom of draconian greenhouse gas regulations.
So, what did GOP Rep. and aspiring Senate candidate Mark Kirk do today when he returned to his district?
He hosted a job fair! Seriously. From his Twitter account:
Mark Kirk: He killed the jobs to save them.
Chicago pols are really something else.
John Ruberry has a report on the cap-and-tax protest at Rep. Kirk's office today — organized overnight and attended by dozens who represent a much greater discontent.
There's already a Mark Kirk Kills Jobs website.
And the #capntr8ors hashtag at Twitter has taken off.
Kirk just linked to his latest press release defending global warming science.
Rep. Kirk, meet Alan Carlin.

d'Arenberg Dead Arm Shiraz 2012
Awarded 3 Gold Medals. The 2012 Dead Arm is all about style, poise and savouriness. The gods may have thrown us challenging conditions and admittedly, there is a slight shift in style when compared to the more classic years of The Dead Arm, but the quality of this wine speaks for itself and an avid Dead Arm drinker will identify all the hallmarks of this iconic Shiraz.Ranked 10 of 134 2012 Shiraz tasted from McLaren ValeVery deep, dark, dense red colour with both black and purple tints. The wine is super-ripe and rich to sniff, with borderline porty characters, black olives and black berries. A biggie, but also balanced and rich and lush, with generous helpings of everything. Licorice and black olive tapenade to finish. It retains life and freshness despite its massive size. A fun-filled glass of shiraz. Huon Hooke 95 points.
- $65.60 per bottle
Leconfield Shiraz 2014
Double Gold Medal Winner!
Plus it was recently awarded 5 stars 'Top of it's Category' Winestate Magazine. The inherent fruit vibrancy of the wine comes from our 'Farm' block. Fruit is harvested at night to take advantage of the naturally cool temperatures, then fermented on skins for a week. A portion of the wine was barrel fermented to integrate the fruit and oak and racked several times to aid natural clarification, integrate the oak and to soften and complex the tannin structure. The fruit, sourced from estate vineyards, has been selected to give the depth for which this wine is renown. Oak Matured for 15 months in 55% French and 45% American oak Hogsheads.
- $24.95 per bottle

Hi guys,
Can anyone please advise me which is the best way (public transportation or taxi) from Orly Airport to the central of Paris (Latin Quarter) at 23.00PM. Is it safe at that time? Or should I ask the hotel to pick-up at the airport?
Many thanks in advance.

Hi guys,
Report Abuse
Oh, by the way, which is the best taxi? How is the price? Should I have to tip & how much? As I have never been to Paris before.
Thanks a lot.
Report Abuse
If you ask the hotel to arrange a pick up it is likely to cost way more than a regular cab from the airport.
If your plane lands at 11 pm you won't be on the road until 11:30 or later (possibly much later if you have to go through Immigration and pick up luggage). Not sure if train is still running then - nor Metro - but I wouldn't want to be walking the streets with luggage looking like a tourist in the small hours.
Sorry I can;t help with price of a cab (my company provides car services) - but I'm sure if you search Paris taxi here you can find the info. We always tip with cabs (but 10% as opposed to 20% at home - possibly more if there is a lot of luggage for the driver to deal with)
Report Abuse
Taxi from Orly is less that CDG. Yes you tip. You will also be charged 1E or so for each piece of luggage.
Report Abuse
It offers lots of advice about Orly access.
Report Abuse
Take a taxi at that time of night. Follow the taxi signs in the airport and don't accept any offers from rogue drivers - there is one official taxi line outside. The taxis will all say Taxis Parisiens on top. It will cost about 25-30E. A tip is not mandatory, but if you feel like it, give an extra 5% or so. Make sure your hotel knows you'll be arriving late and will have someone at the desk.
Report Abuse
Many thanks ALL of your advices
Report Abuse
St Cirq is correct. My timing with taxis has always been during peak traffic periods and I have paid as much as 80 EU for 4 people and bags. So, as long as you follow the advice, take a legitimate taxi, the price you get will be fair. Just be prepared with Euros (there are ATMs inside the terminal)
Report Abuse
80 euros from Orly? That must've been some traffic!

All the Naked Spelunking You Can Handle
August 26, 2009 · Print This Article
Ryan McGinley will exhibit a new series of photographs titled Moonmilk next month at Alison Jacques Gallery in London. McGinley and a group of models/friends/collaborators went cave exploring aka spelunking in the nude (nudity is an essential aspect of McGinley's approach to picture-making, so there's nothing unusual about this aspect of the work). The resulting images are breathtakingly beautiful–Edenic, even, despite the underground setting–each of them classic McGinley in their portrayal of timeless youth, freedom and, importantly, in their emphasis on adventure. Indeed, when McGinley was interviewed by Bad At Sports, he spoke of the enduring influence of children's books on his work, particularly those that feature brave young kids setting out to explore the unknown. (I've always loved those types of books, too; the Wizard of Oz series by L. Frank Baum being my all-time favorites–I still read them before going to sleep when I'm going through a particularly stressful time in my life).
Images from the Moonmilk series have been ping ponging around the Internet lately, and when IÂ saw them I was immediately reminded of Miru Kim's ongoing forays into various subterranian systems, including the Paris catacombs and the New York city subway. Kim's images feature her own nude body as the lone figure in these landscapes. Usually, though not always, Kim goes into these places entirely on her own, without the use of an assistant.
McGinley's photographs are more artfully composed than Kim's are, more mysterious and more expansive in their evocation of a hidden world waiting to be explored. Overall, they're just more "More." Kim portrays little about these cryptic worlds as being magical, even when she's posing in front of a modern-day "cave painting" of a starry night sky (one that's most likely been painted by an otherwise homeless underground denizen). Instead, she's interested in physically exploring an urban unconscious whose decrepit inhabitants and landscape have been "deleted," as she's put it, or otherwise repressed, like the scary monsters of childhood. Kim herself looks like a frightened animal in a lot of her shots: body crouched, clinging awkwardly against the wall as she painstakingly navigates these treacherous spaces.
The reasons why McGinley chooses to photograph his models nude is fairly obvious, given his overarching areas of interest; but Kim's choice to represent herself this way is more puzzling and problematic. In interviews she's explained that her use of nudity is an attempt to make her image less time and culture-specific, but that kind of logic doesn't really hold up given the loaded ways in which we already view the female nude in photography and elsewhere. For me, her decision to pose nude only makes sense when the photographs are viewed as a kind of performative image-making a la the work of Ana Mendieta.
Despite their shortcomings, there is something deeply powerful about Kim's underground explorations that makes them more provocative and ultimately of greater interest to me than McGinley's undeniably lovely ones. For one thing, there's an actual story behind each of Kim's images to be unearthed in the history of the place she's temporarily inhabiting. McGinley's are suggestive in regards to narrative, but their impact is largely mythic and iconic in nature. They're about FREEDOM, ADVENTURE and BEAUTY as they apply to those slim-limbed caucasian twentysomethings who still have the time to travel around with and participate in McGinley's undoubtedly life-affirming projects. But even more compelling is the matter of the sheer guts it takes for a woman (or anyone, really) to explore such places on her own, never mind the nude part.
McGinley's photographs do inspire a certain sense of yearning, but for me, that desire feels uncomfortably similar to the kind that makes me want to go out and buy stuff to make my life (and me) look better. It's a desire that will always be unfulfilled. Kim's photographs, despite their sometimes clumsy literalism, make me think about the truly mind-expanding things that can happen when a shy young woman chooses to go out adventuring all on her own, into exactly those types of deep, dark, fairytale-type places that everyone is always telling you not to go into, or else.
Or else what?

Happy Four Year Anniversary, Bad At Sports!
August 26, 2009 · Print This Article
Is this blog thing working again??
This week's podcast marks Bad at Sports' four year anniversary. Four years of weekly podcasts, people — not one missed show in 208 episodes. So incredible. On a personal note I want to say thank you to Duncan, Richard, Amanda, Tom, Patricia, Brian, Mike, Mark, Kathryn and everyone in front of the mike and behind the scenes who puts these shows together each week. I've only met a handful of you in person, but you've all kept me company, made me laugh out loud, nod my head in agreement, and make strange faces on public transit at one time or another. I've even had some heated arguments with a few of you–all in my head, of course. Point is, each week's episode never fails to keep me fully engaged, and that's been especially important for me as a Chicago-area newbie. Through their weekly podcast, the BaS crew provides a friendly entree into Chicago's art scene, which is notoriously difficult to map. Their weekly chatfests highlight the most interesting artists, curators, critics, and cultural practitioners in Chicago and around the country (and, thanks to Mark, in Europe as well) . What's so great about this particular podcast is that it makes you feel like you're part of the conversation just by listening. Bad at Sports represents everything that's unique and truly great about Chicago — they're a super-smart, unpretentious, no bullshit kinda crew. So if you read the blog but haven't listened to many of the podcasts–try it, you are guaranteed a good time. And if you happen to be new to Chicago, I want to especially encourage you to listen each week, and delve through their 208 episode archive. Start with those episodes that tap into your own particular interests (I guarantee that you will find more than one) and go from there. And don't forget — this art historical audio treasure-trove is absolutely free to access–though no one will mind if you're moved to donate every now and then.
Please check out this week's episode on The Stockyard Institute. Then, go explore a little! Below are just a few of my favorite shows from the archives (which I'm still working my way through) — please share yours in the comments!

Miles Fisher – This Must Be The Place: Music Video NSFW
August 25, 2009 · Print This Article
Miles Fisher is an actor that has had many roles over the last few years first in God's & Generals and most notably the parody he did on Tom Cruise a few months back. He also is a musician and the video he did for his latest song, a cover of the Talking heads "This Must Be The Place" is both a great remix and a killer video homage/parody of American Psycho. Needless to say if you have seen the film this is a video that is not safe for work environments but take a look.
Personas: Visualizing Your Digital Footprint
August 25, 2009 · Print This Article
Over the years many people have created data scrapers to collect and display in an interesting way the data that matches your name or search terms on the net. Year after year they get more cleaver and better. The latest of which and 2nd that I know of to come from M.I.T is Personas. Personas takes the data that it collects about you and parses and categorizes the data it finds to create a kind of Karyotype Taxonomy (somewhere in the world Duncan's ears are burning) of where your influence or activities lie.
So have fun check it out and share your results.
The Chicago Tribune's Sunday edition includes a lengthy article by Mark Caro and Lauren Viera on on how Chicago's art galleries are weathering the recession. According to the Trib, many gallery owners in the River North area are reporting that business took a downturn last summer and has stayed that way so far. Yet a number have also seen enough positive economic activity of late to feel glimmers of hope about the future.
"Compared with New York, where The New York Times reported in June that more than 20 galleries had closed, Chicago's leading art districts have remained relatively stable. River North, the most established gallery area, has seen some businesses move or otherwise constrict their operations, but the bulk are still standing. The West Loop has suffered a few closings, while empty storefronts dot Pilsen's developer-designed art district."
The article notes that Chicago galleries are using various recessionary strategies to stay in business. David Leonardis offered a buy-one-get-one-free sale earlier this summer, while other galleries have also offered special discounts. Still others, like Zolla/Lieberman, are highlighting more modestly-priced works for collectors feeling gun-shy about spending a lot of money during financially anxious times. And in line with what's happening nationally, dealers who specialize in high-end artists, like Richard Gray, have found the market to be as strong as its ever been for "really rare, really fine, highly exceptional works of art."
The arts district in Pilsen has not fared nearly so well, with numerous 'For Rent' signs on storefronts. Also highly worrisome news: UIC's non profit I space Gallery may be in trouble. Its private foundation support "dried up," and director Mary Antonakos is quoted as saying she's worried the space will close.
It should be noted that although the Trib's article includes numerous interviews with Chicago dealers in various media and price-points, it's noticeably thin on accounts from dealers outside the River North area (the piece does include a quote from Carrie Secrist, whose gallery is located in the West Loop, but none from her neighbors Tony Wight, Kavi Gupta, Monique Meloche or Rhona Hoffman–prominent Chicago dealers all).
In the end, however, a gallerist's actions probably speak louder than his or her words. The fact that all of the above-mentioned dealers are planning strong new shows to inaugurate the new fall season suggests that everything remains on track, for now anyway. Chicago art dealers appear to be hanging in there–holding their breath, to be sure, but hanging in there. Read the Tribune's full story here.

Texas Instruments reports 30 percent increase in profits
Cost cutting pays off
CHIPMAKER Texas Instruments managed to increase third quarter profits by 30 percent despite a marginal drop in revenues, thanks to cost cutting measures.
Texas Instruments, which has said that it wants to sell off its system-on-chip (SoC) division, announced impressive third quarter financial results despite revenues dropping slightly. The firm announced that its revenues fell two percent to $3.4bn, while profits rose 30 percent to $784m.
Texas Instruments' embedded and wireless operations fared badly, reporting steep declines in net income, with wireless racking up a $53m loss. The firm was helped to achieve its impressive profits by its analogue business, DLP imaging chips, custom ASIC designs and royalties, and even claimed that increased sales of its legendary calculators had helped.
Rich Templeton, chairman, president and CEO of Texas Instruments once reiterated that the firm is focusing on its analogue and embedded business units, saying, "These two core businesses now comprise 70 percent of our revenue. The importance of this strategy shows in the strong cash that we generate even in weak markets and in our ability to return that cash to shareholders. In the third quarter, our free cash flow exceeded $1 billion, and we returned more than 75 percent of it through dividends and share repurchases. Our confidence in the long-term sustainability of our business model drove the dividend increase of 24 percent that we announced in the quarter."
Recently rumours were flying that Texas Instruments was in talks with Amazon to flog its SoC business. While the firm didn't comment directly on the whispers, its statement listed what it views as its core businesses in the future, a list that did not include smartphones and tablets but did include embedded and analogue chips.
Despite Texas Instruments' impressive profits, the company will need to sort out its embedded division as it cannot continue to bank on cost cutting to keep increasing profits in the future. µ

TORONTO — The Royals are one win away from repeating as American League champions after delivering as comprehensive a beating as the Blue Jays have received all year, 14-2 in Game 4 of the American League Championship Series on Tuesday.
Knuckleballer R.A. Dickey could not get out of the second inning, and even after Liam Hendriks held the fort through the middle innings, Kansas City destroyed the back end of the Toronto bullpen to hand the Blue Jays their first 10-run loss of the year.
MORE: Top photos from the ALCS | Five takeaways from the game
Ben Zobrist and Alex Rios homered for the Royals, who set a playoff record with four sacrifice flies and also scored on a passed ball and a wild pitch, basically beating the Blue Jays in every way they could be beaten. It got so bad, Jays backup infielder Cliff Pennington had to get the last out.
Here's how the demolition unfolded . . .

Summary form only given. The authors report p-channel germanium MOSFETs which exhibit channel mobilities more than four times higher than typically obtained in p-channel silicon devices (in excess of 1000 cm2/V-s with a gate dielectric thickness of approximately 220 AA). Fabrication of these MOSFETs is quite straightforward and utilizes equipment which is comparable to that used for conventional silicon MOSFET processing. Germanium p-channel MOSFETs having effective channel lengths down to approximately 2.3 mu m (2.75- mu m gate length) have been fabricated. Using a dielectric capacitance of 2.5*10-7 F-cm-2 taken from large area devices, a mobility of approximately 1050 cm2/V-s can be inferred from the slope of the transconductance curve. For the 2.3- mu m device, a transconductance of 50 mS/mm at approximately 0.5 V above threshold and a k-value of 110 mS/V-mm have been obtained. This performance is significantly better than that of p-channel silicon devices having similar channel length and approximately 220-AA gate dielectric thickness.

Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
It's not obesity, but the panic over obesity, that's the real health problem, argues this scintillating contrarian study of the evergreen subject of American gluttony and sloth. Political scientist Oliver condemns what he feels is a self-interested "public health establishment"-obesity researchers seeking federal funding, pharmaceutical and weight-loss companies peddling diet drugs and regimens, bariatric surgeons and other health-care providers angling for insurance reimbursement-for spuriously characterizing fatness as a disease. He debunks the dubious science and alarmist PR that fuels their campaign, taking on arbitrary Body-Mass Index standards that slot even Michael Jordan in the overweight category, state-by-state maps of obesity rates that make fatness look like a contagion spreading over the countryside, and flimsy research studies that vastly exaggerate the danger and costs of weight gain. Oliver also examines American attitudes towards obesity, probing the abhorrence of fatness implicit in the Protestant ethic and, less plausibly, tying our contemporary feminine ideal of the emaciated supermodel to a confluence of sociobiology and the economics of the urban sexual marketplace. Arguing that fatness is perfectly compatible with fitness, he contends that scapegoating obesity drives Americans to experiment with dangerous crash diets, appetite suppressants and weight-loss surgeries, while distracting us from underlying harmful changes in the American lifestyle-mainly our incessant snacking on junk food and shunning of exercise and physical activity, of which weight gain is perhaps merely a "benign symptom." Oliver provides a lucid, engaging critique of obesity research and a shrewd analysis of the socioeconomic and cultural forces behind it. The result is a compelling challenge to the conventional wisdom about our bulging waistlines. Photos.
Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
"An extended polemic against the causal association of overweight and ill health. Ascrib[ing] to weight loss what might be better attributed to the life-style changes that produce weight loss is, Oliver claims, 'like saying whiter teeth produced by the elimination of smoking reduces the incidence of lung cancer.'"--The New Yorker
"Fat Politics skewers the conventional wisdom on obesity. Beautifully written and exhaustively researched, it is impossible to read this book without having your view of fat forever changed. I absolutely loved this book." --Steven D. Levitt, Professor of Economics, University of Chicago; author of Freakonomics: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything
"It's not obesity, but the panic over obesity, that's the real health problem, argues this scintillating contrarian study of the evergreen subject of American gluttony and sloth.... Oliver provides a lucid, engaging critique of obesity research and a shrewd analysis of the socioeconomic and cultural forces behind it. The result is a compelling challenge to the conventional wisdom about our bulging waistlines."--Publishers Weekly
"Fat Politics is one of those rare books that manages to turn all your conventional ideas and easy assumptions on their heads, while somehow maintaining a probing, reasonable, and entertaining tone. Anyone who holds strong opinions--professional or personal--about American's obesity epidemic is going to have to grapple with this book." --Stephen Johnson, author of Everything Bad is Good For You: How Today's Popular Culture is Actually Making Us Smarter
"Eric Oliver's book debunks almost every conventional theory that causally relates obesity to diseases and early death. It will infuriate countless obesity researchers, weight-loss doctors, and the food, diet, and pharmaceutical industries. Whether or not you agree with all of his critiques, one thing is indisputable: the entire field badly needs a good shakeup." --Jerome P. Kassirer, M.D., Editor-in-Chief Emeritus, New England Journal of Medicine, and author of On The Take: How Medicine's Complicity with Big Business Can Endanger Your Health
"A damning indictment of a culture awash in the paradox of too much choice, the shame of too much consumption, and the fear of a moral vacuum.... In one well-argued, boldly titled chapter after another, Oliver advances his view that we have made fatness 'a scapegoat for all our ills' and explores how we harm ourselves by doing so."--Daphne Merkin, Elle Magazine
"In Fat Politics, Eric Oliver examines America's ongoing search for weapons of body mass destruction and reveals that the emperors of the current fat hysteria aren't wearing any clothes. This is an essential book for understanding the leading moral panic of our time. Fat Politics provides a particularly compelling analysis of the economic factors that have helped produce the current panic over fat. Fat Politics is the latest illustration of what happens when an academic whose work is not actually funded by the weight-loss industry takes a look at the evidence regarding the relationship between weight and health."--Paul Campos, Professor of Law, University of Colorado, and author of The Obesity Myth

The book systematically goes through the evidence (but in a highly readable way) about how the idea of obesity came to be defined and how the idea that obesity was a disease became popularized (largely from a small group of weight loss doctors, diet hucksters, and bureaucrats).
Not only does he reveal the people who have been behind the scenes and promoting the idea that America's weight gain is an epidemic disease, he goes beyond this and describes why we hate fat people, why white women are expected to be thin, and most interesting why Americans are gaining weight and what this weight gain means.
Some interesting things that I learned from this book were 1) ceteris paribus, white women are twice as likely to be told be their doctor that they are overweight; 2) taxing junk food is only likely to make people eat worse; 3) the main reason why Americans gaining weight is not from super-size meals but from snacking; 4) the biggest source of the obesity epidemic is a powerpoint presentation; 5) the origins of the idea of obesity came from an astronomer.
I was not surprised to see that Steve Levitt, author of Freakonomics, said he "loved" this book on the back cover. Its the same kind of interesting and counterintuitive logic.
Oliver isn't saying that it's OK to weigh 400 lbs; instead, he points out that (except in the most extreme cases) the dangers of overweight and the benefits of losing weight are greatly exaggerated -- in fact, trying to lose weight can be more harmful to one's health than staying fat, and very thin people are often far less healthy than fat people. Numerous studies (which he cites in detail) have disproved the conventional wisdom, but these are routinely ignored or misinterpreted. He also points out that the main reason that the incidence of obesity has increased in America is not that Americans have gained a lot of weight, but rather that the threshold for classifying someone as "obese" has been lowered (duh!).
Oliver's most noteworthy point, I think, is this: excess weight is not the problem, it's a symptom. The real culprits in "weight-linked" diseases aren't the pounds themselves, but the behaviors and conditions associated with them. Fat people who exercise are healthier than thin people who don't; following a healthy diet is beneficial even if it doesn't lead to weight loss; and many conditions (such as insulin resistance) are likelier to be the cause of excess weight, rather than the other way around.
From my own experience, I can confirm Oliver's contention that doctors' obsession with weight loss as a cure-all often diverts them from dealing with the real problem. High blood pressure runs in my family, and afflicts both fat and thin people; but the same doctors who prescribed medication for my thin relatives told me that ALL I had to do was lose weight and my blood pressure would go down. After 30 years (!), during which my weight was all over the map while my blood pressure steadily climbed, I finally found a doctor who listened to reason, and I've kept my blood pressure under control ever since with medication. (Footnote: A few years later, I lost 40 lbs -- and my blood pressure didn't budge.)
Being a political scientist and a statistician, Oliver also offers his conclusions about the social implications of fat, which I found interesting but not always convincing (his argument for why thinness is valued in white women seemed rather circular to me). The chief value of the book, I think, is that he's done an excellent job of amassing the medical and statistical data, and showing that many of our assumptions about obesity are based on myth rather than fact.
But most enjoyable aspect of the book is how readable it is. This is no slog through dry statistics about our weight and health. Nor is it a finger wagging polemic whose substance is obvious from the first pages. "Fat Politics" is a lively, even gripping read as Oliver takes us on a tour through the cultural history of weight and the relationship between modern capitalism and weight gain. Readers of "Freakonomics" or "The Tipping Point" will find here a similar irreverence for conventional wisdom and compelling set of contrary arguments. Even if you don't agree with every one, "Fat Politics" will leave you with a new way of thinking about the debate and a heightened skepticism about the received wisdom on the topic.

The more families I photograph, the more I realize how sweet and unique each individual family dynamic is. Or to put it more simply–I love capturing a family's personality! This recent family portrait session in DC was no exception. I so enjoyed laughing and spending a (humid!) evening with these amazing parents and their four kids.
And is often the case…some of my favorite images are the ones that are less "scripted." We certainly had some in this session…ones that I feel in some very small way pause time and give a tiny glimpse of the big love in this family. But enough words…let's get to the photos. Here are a few of my favorites!
And finally–I must give a shout out to the artist in this family…Tracy is a wonderful artist whose mixed-media work can be admired and collected from her Etsy shop.

Business Watch -- WSJ
Finance experts don't necessarily invest as they advise.
Financial planner Mark Balasa and Morningstar's Christine Benz and David Blanchett tackled viewers' most pressing retirement questions, from determining savings rates and income needs to planning for Social Security and maximizing retirement accounts.
Rather than "insuring" your portfolio, you could be "ensuring" a loss.
It is difficult to determine when investors will shed fears and the recovery will be full, according to Ariel's Ken Kuhrt, but consumer-focused names are finding the power alley right now.
For more complete information on the American Independence Funds, you can obtain a prospectus containing complete information for the funds by calling 866-410-2006, or by visiting www.aifunds.com.

Personal Injury Lawyer
You are facing an under 21 DUI case because your chemical test came back at .05% under Vehicle Code 23140. You are subject to fines and losing your driving privileges for up to one year. If convicted of this charge, it will also be counted as a prior offense for the next 10 years. Do not discuss the facts of your case and make admissions on an open forum like this. Go see a criminal defense attorney for a free consultation to discuss your case, including errors on breath machines, etc. Good luck.
DUI / DWI Attorney
You need to request a DMV hearing within 10 days from the date of your arrest or the DMV will suspend your driver's license for a year. Because you're under 21, you're facing a "zero tolerance" situation because you shouldn't have been drinking at all. That being said, there could still be defenses in your case, for which it would behoove you to speak with a DUI defense attorney in your area to discuss.
DUI / DWI Attorney
Based on the facts as you have stated them you will only be looking at an infraction and not a full DUI, which is the good news. The bad news is that you may lose your license if you do not successfully win your DMV hearing. I would recommend hiring an attorney to represent you to preserve your CDL.

Phase — Mother Earth, a piece created by Mono-ha artist Nobuo Sekine in 1968, has been re-created:
Consisting of a hole dug into the ground, 2.7 metres deep and 2.2 metres in diameter, with the excavated earth compacted into a cylinder of exactly the same dimensions, Phase — Mother Earth was instrumental in the early development of work by the Mono-ha artist group, and has been considered a landmark work in Japanese postwar art history.More about Mono-ha inside.

Yukio Mishima 14 January 1925 - 25 November 1970
"There's something very shabby about a noble grave... Political power and the power of wealth result in splendid graves. Really impressive graves, you know. Such creatures never had any imagination while they lived, and quite naturally their graves don't leave any room for imagination either. But noble people live only on the imaginations of themselves and others, and so they leave graves like this one which inevitably stir one's imagination. And this I find even more wretched. Such people, you see, are obliged even after they are dead to continue begging people to use their power of imagination." - Yukio Mishima via Kashiwagi in The Temple of the Golden Pavilion. On this, the anniversary of Mishima's transformation into a headless god, a collection of video links. [more inside]
No Coffee for Old Men in Black
In a series of sixteen advertisements screened in Japan, Tommy Lee Jones plays extraterrestrial 'Alien Jones', who has taken the form of a man to check on the world of humans, all the while drinking a Japanese brand of coffee named BOSS. I have no idea how Tommy Lee Jones got talked into doing these advertisements, or why. And after watching them for yourself (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16), you probably won't either.

In Parentheses is a collection of many ancient, medieval and classic texts from all over the world, many of whom are hard to find anywhere, let alone on the internet.

Adding to that there's a linguistics section with wordlists and language flash cards in languages such as Icelandic, Quechua, Basque, Classical Armenian and a whole bunch more.

Japanese USB drives
The challenge, take the usb drive to new levels, you may have seen the mimobot usb drives, pretty hip but perhaps only Japanese-influenced since manufacturer Mimico is Boston based. The true Japanese usb style is undeniably unbalanced, por ejemplo: The USB Chameleon (video), the Self-destruction USB hub (video), the USB motorcycle engine hub (video), and no movie here but you will be happy to know that the Kore Janai robot USB drive is the "perfect cool toy" with the uncool appearance.

The Japanese Trailer to Kokoro Scan. Japanese game trailers always seem pretty interesting and fun. And, well, most often more-or-less nonsensical. This is for the new game Kokoro Scan, which, um, looks like it might be a dating sim of some sort? Maybe? The animation and segues are pretty interesting, and, though it's 6 minutes -- awfully long for a trailer, particularly one sans any gameplay (I think) -- it's interesting/off-the-wall enough to be engaging.

They've made a couple of bizarre music videos, played concerts in Japan and America over the last seven years, and now have an album and a live DVD.

Instructions are in Japanese as well, but it's pretty simple: Click "attack" and run your mouse over your opponent's face to slap, click "evasion" and run your mouse over yourself to dodge a slap.

The Life of Otokichi
The true story of Yamamoto Otokichi (or John Matthew Ottoson, a transliteration of "Oto-san"): a Japanese seaman who in 1832 got caught in a storm off the coast of Japan and ended up floating all the way across the Pacific, becoming the first Japanese (documented, at least) in North America. And that's only the introduction to his story. To get back to Japan he traveled around the world, setting many firsts for a Japanese native, and played a part as the inspiration for Commodore Matthew Perry and his "Black Ships." Although barely a footnote in history, in 2005 half of his ashes were brought back to Japan to rest in home soil. >
