I must be in the minority here because I do not like this product. I am blush junkie so I know where I'm coming from.
Good things first. The packaging is great. It is very NARS-esque but still quite sturdy, durable and actually pretty to look at. It does not feel cheap like say NYX packaging. So good job there Sleek!
Onto the product itself, the blushes are pigmented. Way too pigmented. That's my quip with this product. It might sound like a good thing but it is not. You want your blush to mimic a natural flush and not clown cheeks. If there is great pigmentation, the blendability should also be great. Like say, NARS or Illamasqua blushes which are also insanely pigmented but blend out very easily. These blushes are just pigmented with no blendability and I am not even fair skinned. Medium toned infact. I can only wonder how much of a disaster they would be on fair skinned beauties.
I don't mind a sheen in my blushes but the middle colour is a glitter bomb. No matter how much I blend and try to sheer it out, I can still see chunky glitter on my face. Not a cute look. It is supposed to be a dupe for NARS Orgasm which also has very chunky glitter, so it might be a good thing if you're looking for that kinda thing. In my opinion, it doesn't look very natural and definitely not day time appropriate.
Overall, I am sort of disappointed as I had high hopes. If you're a beginner and do not know how to work with difficult blushes, then do not get this palette. It takes alot of elbow grease to make it work.

I'll be honest and say it upfront: I doubt I'll ever hit pan on any of the Sleek blushes I own. And for a very good reason � these blushes are so incredibly pigmented, all you've got to do is tap your brush on the pan with a very, very light hand and you'll probably have enough for both cheeks, if you are fair-skinned like me (I'm lighter than NC15).
I own many blushes, and I do not normally gravitate towards bright, warm reds as I've got this irrational fear that these blushes will turn my already pink-undertoned skin even redder.
These blushes surprised me though! Once applied with a very light hand, the two matte shades give me such a healthy and, I daresay, happy glow, while the shimmery shade works as a beautiful blush when heading out for the evening.
I always use a natural hair brush to pick up product, as I find that synthetic brushes sometimes pick up too much product for my liking. I've had this palette for a good three years (maybe more) now, and the packaging is incredibly sturdy for a drugstore product. It's survived many a holiday with me, and I'm not a very good packer... I usually throw all my makeup haphazardly into one large bag and pray for the best. =p
In all, a beautifully affordable makeup brand from the drugstore, and their blushes are, honestly, oh-so lovely!

These blushers are soooo soft and buttery. They are super pigmented, which can be a plus or a negative. I tend to use the middle colour as a blush topper since it's on the more sheer but shimmery side. It looks lovely paired with the red colour. I love the packaging, it has a great mirror and the compact is really chic looking and slim. I don't tend to use this palette too much since the colours are a little bright, but I do love the formula and packaging!

I already use Sleek eye shadows and I found the blushes in the palette to be as pigmented and long lasting as the shadows. Maybe the middle shade is a bit off: as a blusher it doesn't show so much on my medium skin, as a highlighter it's not shimmery enough... I guess it's gorgeous on pale skin though. You can't beat the price for 3 blushes of this quality.

so beautiful! i got this one and another one called pumpkin and they are absolutely perfect. i haven't stopped using sleeks blushers since i got them.
i bought them online on the actual store website, i cant remember the price but i think its somewhere around the $10-14 au mark. and sooo worth the price.
first of all they come in nice black slim packaging with a mirror which is amazing for on the go. the pigment on them is incredible so you only need a small amount and it gives you the prettiest colour, with amazing blend-ability... 10/10 would recommend this !

I love the sleek blush by 3 in lace iv just started wearing peachy blushes and these are perfect very pigmented as sleek usually are so a little bit goes a long way and you get 20g of product in the palette so it will probably last forever :) the 1st shade 'crochet' is really similar to sleek single blush in 'lifes a peach' and the middle shade 'guipure' is really similar to sleek single blush in 'rose gold' I have a review and swatches on my blog princesscaela89.blogspot.co.uk

I really think this product should have more reviews because it is so goood
It is so pigmented, on my medium skin I still need to be careful not to dab my brush too much on it.
Lace has 3 colour which I loves, I like the middle one with a bit shimmer on it.
I thought the shimmer would be too much before, but when I apply it, it is more like highlighter and gives your cheek more healthy glow! I receive many compliments when wearing it.
On my oily day, I couldn't use the shimmer though, then I use the left or the right matte ones.
The packaging is standard sleek, with large mirror and very thin easy to carry
It is paraben-free which I love.
I wonder how this product can be so good but yet so cheap.

I am new to Sleek since you cannot purchase the brand in the US, however I was so intrigued by reviews of this company and decided to purchase some products online.
My recommendation would be NOT ordering this from Sleek's website since there are so many horror stories associated with the customer service. I purchased my products from Amazon from seller RM Cosmetics. My package arrived two weeks BEFORE the due date that was originally scheduled, so it was pretty quick. The products came in a box, covered with bubble wrap and everything was un-damaged. Definitely will purchase more things from this seller.
Now on to the blush. The colors are super bright and very pigmented. The middle shade is my favorite since it looks like NARS Orgasm. The other two shades I have to work with a little bit to sheer them out since my skin tone is quite light, but it's no problem.
The product seems to be wearing well during the day and so far I didn't have to reapply.

Baltej Singh Dhillon
This article has multiple issues. Please help improve it or discuss these issues on the talk page. (Learn how and when to remove these template messages)(Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Baltej Singh Dhillon a Canadian police officer and was the first Royal Canadian Mounted Police officer to be allowed to wear a turban.
Early life[edit]
He was born in 1966 in Malaysia and immigrated to Canada with his family in 1982. After graduating from high school, he went on to Kwantlen College to study criminology with hopes of becoming a criminal lawyer. Having been advised to do some volunteer work to improve his chances of getting into law school, he helped the RCMP launch the Block Watch program in his community and was subsequently hired by the force to work on the program.
Recruitment and controversy[edit]
Based on his previous experiences, Dhillon decided that he wanted to join the RCMP. He went to a recruiting office and met all the initial requirements. The recruiting officer raised the delicate issue of the turban. RCMP policy did not allow it, however the issue went to then-Commissioner of the RCMP, Norman Inkster. Inkster sided with Dhillon, and pressure was put on the federal government to change the policy.
Dhillon's request (and subsequent support from Inkster) created much controversy. Many opposed to the change believed that the stetson was part of the uniform and allowing a turban into such an all-Canadian institution would change the face of a national icon.
Over 150,000 people signed petitions to retain the traditional RCMP dress code, and sympathetic legislators presented the results to Parliament. Conversely, Sikh leaders pointed out that turbaned Sikhs served in the British Indian Army in two World Wars and now work in many Canadian police forces.
On March 16, 1990, the federal Solicitor General, Pierre Cadieux, announced in the House of Commons that the policy was theretofore amended to permit Sikhs to wear the turban while on active duty in the RCMP. Dhillon subsequently entered the RCMP Academy, Depot Division, in Regina, Saskatchewan, as the first turbaned cadet. Dhillon's career saw him, among other things, work as an investigator with the 1985 Air India bombing task force.
Staff Sergeant Dhillon is currently head of the British Columbia RCMP Provincial Intelligence Centre, which is composed of Regular RCMP Members, Canadian Security Intelligence Service members, Municipal police service members and civilian staff. Staff Sgt. Dhillon still participates in Major Crimes and Polygraph as they were his previous area of expertise.
Personal life[edit]
He now resides in Surrey and lives with his wife, mother and two daughters.

The Beckley Courtyard Marriott is located just off the Interstate in a strip dominated by restaurants and gas stations. It is set back from the main road so noise is not an issue. Our room had a king size bed with a very comfortable mattress along with a nice sofa for relaxing while watching TV. There is a large flat screen TV in the room with a wide selection of cable channels. Since this is a Courtyard, there is no free breakfast in the morning; however, there is a McDonalds within close walking distance and the Courtyard does offer a limited breakfast menu for purchase. In addition, the Bistro at the Courtyard serves a light dinner and has alcohol in the evening (all available for purchase). The staff was very friendly and helpful during our recent visit.

Final Crisis Aftermath: Run #2
"Final Crisis Aftermath: Run!" is all about a sad-sack villain trying to survive in a world that he clearly isn't suited for, and about the nature of super-villains in general.

Damn. I'd never have guessed that he's part Cuban.
OT but Simon's uncut dick is SO fucking sexy..
Sigh.. when he was a SC model, those were the days worth subscribing.

^ Nice! I have to say again that he's HOT!
His ass looks flat and short.
He might be slow but he seems like he has a heart of gold. I like how he treats his best friend, his mama and his brother.
I feel kind of bad for Ryan I hear his family is messed up his parents are in financial debt, and I believe his younger brother has gotten into trouble with the law. I don't blame Ryan for trying to make some cash it is hard for Olympic athletes because people only care about them once every four years. So for Ryan to get his own reality show hopefully he can make some money off it and save it.
Holy shit, his chest
Does "I wanna fuck his brains out!" Still work? Even though he's not so smart. I think someone else fucked his brains out.....Vacancy, was that you?
I dont know what Ryan Lochte would do but i know what the fuck id do damn!!!
speedos almost look baggy
^It really is.
Those are very hot photos. But the show nearly killed my attraction to him... LOL
Ryan Lochte is 6'2" which is as far as I'm concerned the perfect height for a male .

Classroom discussion practices that can lead to reasoned participation by all students are presented and described by the authors. Their research emphasizes the careful orchestration of talk and tasks in academic learning. Parallels are drawn to the philosophical work on deliberative discourse and the fundamental goal of equipping all students to participate in academically productive talk. These practices, termed Accountable TalkSM, emphasize the forms and norms of discourse that support and promote equity and access to rigorous academic learning. They have been shown to result in academic achievement for diverse populations of students. The authors outline Accountable Talk as encompassing three broad dimensions: one, accountability to the learning community, in which participants listen to and build their contributions in response to those of others; two, accountability to accepted standards of reasoning, talk that emphasizes logical connections and the drawing of reasonable conclusions; and, three, accountability to knowledge, talk that is based explicitly on facts, written texts, or other public information. With more than fifteen years research into Accountable Talk applications across a wide range of classrooms and grade levels, the authors detail the challenges and limitations of contexts in which discourse norms are not shared by all members of the classroom community.

CSC student denies theftOctober 29,2013CSC student
denies theft
A second Castleton State College athlete has denied stealing more than $1,000 worth of merchandise from Dicks Sporting Goods.
Brandon E. Boyle, 21, pleaded innocent in Rutland criminal court to a felony charge of retail theft.
Boyle, who appeared in court on a citation, remains free on court-ordered conditions of release.
He is one of six student athletes at the college charged in an alleged shoplifting ring at the sporting goods store in Rutland Town.
Earlier this month, George A. Busharis, 19, pleaded innocent to four misdemeanor charges of retail theft charges that carry a potential two-year prison term.
By contrast, Boyle, who police said worked at Dicks and aided the thefts by voiding from receipts goods that were taken but not paid for, faces up to 10 years behind bars if convicted.
The other students charged are Mark Comstock, Eric N. Cross, Dominic S. Heller and Zachary J. Howe. The case remains open but Vermont State Police said Monday that no additional charges have been brought since the six students were charged earlier this month.MORE IN This Just InNORTH BENNINGTON Two public meetings, in North Bennington and Shaftsbury, have been set for...

I am a 62-yr-old woman who has spent much of my life managing chronic conditions including fibromyalgia/chronnic fatigue syndrome, ulcerative colitis and pms and all recurrent infections due to a compromised immune system, all of which were further exacerbated through pregnancies, miscarriages, then perimenopause and now menopause. Even though I excelled at school and work, it was always a challenge to get ahead, especially financially due to illness and debilitating fatigue, which in turn has made it challenging to receive proper medical care. So, I have done a lot of research into caring for myself and living a healthy lifestyle and even finding myself providing nurses and PA's with information they didn't have about my conditions. After recently qualifying for Medical, I was referred by the PA at the Venice Family Clinic to see Dr. Hiram Williams at The Eisner Women's Center for Health in downtown LA. After decades of being frustrated I did not have confidence that I would get the help I needed. I could not have been more surprised. Not only did Dr. Williams turn out to be knowledgeable, and I mean up to date and progressive in his approach, for the treatment for menopause, including use of BHRT, but also had additional special interest and knowledge of fibromyalgia/chronic fatigue syndrome, which actually makes sense to me since up to 9 times as many women have it as men and the single biggest factor that separates women from men is their hormones. Not only did Dr. Williams take the time to share his knowledge with me, but even more importantly, he took the time to listen to me, my history, questions, concerns and requests. He is very patient, thorough, understanding and kind. I don't know yet how effective my new treatment plan will be, especially since there are no known cures for my conditions. What I do know, is that I now have someone who I feel is on my side and will continue to help me move forward! I have many wealthy friends who have been able to see some of the more famous doctors who have written books on women's health, menopause and anti-aging and they are have all been favorably impressed by my reports of Dr. Williams. I understand that Dr. Williams also has his own practice outside of Eisner and I would recommend him to any woman who relates to my story. [NOTE: I wanted to be honest about my wait time but that was expected at the clinic and might not be the case at his office. However, it might also mean that Dr. Williams is taking whatever time is needed with each of his patients, in which case, it is worth the wait:)]

On Linux you can create any layout you wish by editing the appropriate ASCII configuration files. On Windows the keyboard layout definitions are binary. Is there any tool that can create these binary keyboard layout configuration files?
I grew up on the Macintosh international keyboard layout, which used the option key extensively, and now I would like to use the same layout on Windows.
On Linux this Mac international keyboard layout exists for both the console as well as for X.Org. On Windows, the most similar layout is US International, which is not the same.

|@2, They are retroactive, once you start the game, the achievement(s) will pop if you've already won 25 tournaments and/or played 10,000 hands. Don't know about 10 full houses, didn't pop for me.
Also, they are not time sensitive, and don't even have to be done online, you can do them all in single player offline mode.

This DLC isn't included in the 4MB update, that's all for this new fangled Avatar Famestar gimmick. I had to go to the Game Marketplace for the DLC, which is less than 400KB
Anyway, Alpha Dog unlocked immediately, but just under 5,000 hands to go...*clinches fist*

I'm not trying to defend the idiot but I'd hate to see one person be able to ruin your experience and stop you from enjoying MP on LIVE. It's your choice to stop, but that makes it sound like he won.

|@29 If you do change your mind and stay on LIVE and you want to prevent it from happening again, you can change your privacy settings so that only your friends list is viewable by your friends, or so that no one can view it except you. You can also block people from sending you those types of messages or mute them on the mic once they start being pricks, or even make it so that only your friends can send you a message. Make sure you report their GT's though if it does happen again, eventually enough people report the GT and MS will ban them.

|@27 Sorry, I think you made a mistake. Looking at your achievements, you won Summer 2011 achievements this past May 2012. You have none of the Spring 2011 achievements unlocked. I have read that the Spring 2011 achievements were unobtainable once the Summer 2011 season began. But the Summer 2011 achievements continued to be obtainable until just recently when the Summer 2012 season began. Hopefully I am wrong, but it is my understanding that Spring 2011 and now Summer 2011 are permanently unobtainable.

I remember watching that Kee Bird documentary on TV. It was a major battle to prep the aircraft for flight, a crushing loss when the mechanic died, and a complete heartbreak when the B-29 went up in flames.
However, I do have an observation that may make me a little less popular, but it's a free world, so let's see how this goes.
From the moment I first saw the bomber skidding around clumsily in the snow with all 4 engines running, I have felt that it was a blessing in disguise that the aricraft didn't have a chance to take off. I don't mean that I'm happy it ended like it did, but I truly question whether the aircraft would have made it off the deck or not. And I really would not have bet money on it.
Sure, it was unladen, which for a long range, heavy bomber means a lot. Several tons "a lot." But there was a lot of drag on the wheels. He started the aircraft, spun it around in a tight turn (pretty tough with no nose wheel steering, apparently) and lined it up. That's when the small APU engine at the back of the aircraft broke off its mount and spilled fuel all over the tail area of the fuse. Boom, fire. This could just as easily have happened half way down the icy runway at some speed. The pilot (name?) was lucky to get out. I don't recall if anyone else was on board at the time.
I hate seeing stuff like this. I hate seeing something this close fail, especially when it's a piece of history like a B-29. But I really question whether the bomber would have made it into the air, or crashed after running out of room and claimed at least one or two more of the expedition. I guess we'll never know.
For those of you who watched the documentary, any feelings on the chances of success taking off from that location, on that day?
I'd highly reccomend anyone interested in the Kee Bird saga to read 'Hunting Warbirds' by Carl Hoffman (ISBN 0-345-43617-2)
However, to answer a few questions --
Apparently the generator which was acting as APU in the aft of the Kee Bird had a jury-rigged gravity feed fuel tank - failure to disconnect and secure the tank meant the jolting taxi run of the Bird splashed petrol onto the hot manifold of the APU, resulting in the fire.
The pilot was Darryl Greenameyer, apparently a bit of a well known figure on the air-racing and warbird scene for many years.
Also on board where Al Hanson, sharing cockpit duties with Greenameyer, and Thad Dulin in the aft section near the APU.
Perhaps it might bes a blessing the Bird didn't actually take off and crash, burn halfway through the take off run - but the 'flight'of the Kee Bird would have been less than one hundred miles, from the lake to Thule AFB.
Despite some 'difficulties'with both the Danish authorities and the USAF, had the team flown the Kee Bird back to Thule AFB they would have been welcomed as heroes - and it's pretty certain the USAF would have then put resources into ensuring the safe return of the Kee Bird to CONUS (it would have been a PR disaster if they didn't... as it was the only disaster happened on the ice and not in the air...)
Apparently there are enough useful bits left at the site to encourage other recovery efforts, but they will be bringing back parts for other restorations and not unfortunately a flying B29.
I'd like to think they could have flown her off the ice, but then again I've also been accused of being an incurable romantic...
I just finished watching the NOVA program for a second time (this time online) since its origional PBS airdate. It was just as frustrating to watch as the first time.
I agree that the crew faced a considerable risk taking off from a runway of ice, but, the ship was a sturdy design with 4 good and new engines making it highly airworthy especially with a minimal load to carry off of the ground. If the pilot was able maintain steerage/control until take-off velocity was reached, I believe that Kee Bird, more likely than not, would have flown. The 8000 hp and 16ft props would have provided the necessary control and lift.
Their failure was not performing a preflight/pretaxi check of the aircraft. The ladder left in place was noted from the start and not only was the apu and its fuel supply jury rigged, it was needlessly left running. If it was switched off as soon as the first engine was started, it might have cooled sufficiently following engine start sequence was completed so as not to have ignited any spilled fuel to begin with. That small gasoline engine was a major fire risk that should have been dealt with. Leaving it poorly installed and left running while ship was moving was a major screw-up that was too painful to watch. The access ladder could have clipped the ground and damaged the hatchway or airframe if torn away from its points of attachment. The crew were talented, highly skilled men, but none the less careless knuckleheads. I would like to point out that it was knuckleheaded of them to have relied on another antique aircraft, the '62 Caribue, that was in marginal condition to rely upon as their lifeline and only source of transportation. That ship was not air-worthy and could have crashed a more than one occasion, especially the zero-flap landing with the bulldozer on board!
I wanted to see that old bird fly, and it had an excellent chance to make it. The pilot and crew failed to exercise reasonable care in pre-flighting that ship. They got impatient and very sloppy at the last minute, and it cost them dearly. Very frustrating to watch them watching their ship needlessly burn with out even attempting a take-off.

I also just re-watched the NOVA episode on the Kee Bird.
Such a shame and a waste. Seems like they could have at least salvaged some good parts from that plane for other restorations. I suppose disassembling the entire aircraft and getting it back to civilization would have been prohibitively expensive.

I think the biggest mistake was the decision not to wait until the next spring. They gave in to the temptation to rush, trying to beat the weather. This is another weather related accident.
What we believe or do not believe does not change the facts.
The oldest, most mysterious, most published piece of literature in the universe, remains unread by most people in the same universe.

My limited understanding is that the all-too-cavalier Mr. Greenamyer and his crew of idiots made such a horrible ecological mess, and then hastily left the area in such a horrible mess without cleaning any of it up as they had promised, that there will never be another similar recovery mission approved by the Danish government.
So if someone finds Amelia Earhart's airplane, parked next to MH370, and the secret formula for curing cancer is rolled up inside the Ark of the Covenant, which is sitting in the pilot's seat, next to Elvis playing his guitar in the co-pilot's seat, and Elvis is sitting on top of Obama's birth certificate... and all of this is resting peacefully on the deck of Noahs Ark... and it all happens to be sitting there in pristine museum condition anywhere near Greenland - the Danish government is so sore about what these chimpanzees did with Kee Bird that they will never allow anyone to go get it.

GRAND FORKS, N.D. -- University of North Dakota officials are encouraged by the NCAA's decision to allow Florida State to use its Seminoles nickname in postseason play.
"It appears they've set a precedent that we feel pretty good about," said Phil Harmeson, a senior associate to UND President Charles Kupchella.
The NCAA removed Florida State from a list of 18 colleges with American Indian nicknames that it had restricted earlier this month. Based on the NCAA ruling, teams on the list, including UND, may not host NCAA postseason tournaments or use the American Indian
imagery in NCAA tournaments after Feb. 1.
The association said Tuesday it recognized the relationship
Florida State has with the Seminole Tribe of Florida. It also said
it would handle reviews from other schools on a case-by-case basis.
North Dakota tribes have been split over the Fighting Sioux nickname. The Spirit Lake tribe, which is nearest the UND campus, has supported it, while the Standing Rock tribe has opposed it.
"That's something the NCAA will probably have to deal with if they decide that's the controlling factor," Harmeson said. "We will be arguing that that is not the controlling factor -- it is a factor, but not the controlling factor."
The university has asked the NCAA to clarify its Aug. 5 ruling but has yet to receive an answer, Harmeson said. The school may go ahead with an appeal based on the Florida State decision, he said.
"I think that it gives all of us hope that every school will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis," said Don Kojich, UND's new executive vice president for university relations.

|"Life" airs Wednesday nights on NBC
Actor Donal Logue has an impressive resume of comic book films under his belt. From âBladeâ and âGhost Riderâ to âAmerican Splendorâ and even âStarmanâ writer James Robinsonâs own âComic Book Villains,â Logue has fulfilled every fanboyâs dream. Now the successful performer is taking on a new challenge, joining the cast of an already successful TV show, NBCâs âLife.â
Airing Wednesday, âLifeâ stars Damian Lewis (âBand of Brothers,â âDreamcatcherâ) as Los Angeles police officer Charlie Crews, whoâs recently been released from prison after serving a twelve-year sentence for a murder that he did not commit. Now free, thanks to new DNA technology, Crews is back on the force with a shiny new Detective badge and an undisclosed fortune awarded to him by the courts. With an all-new Zen attitude cultivated in years of solitary and a love for fresh fruit (which he couldnât get on the inside), Crews is determined to find the people responsible for sending him to prison and destroying his life. Crews keeps a conspiracy wall hidden in a room in his empty, new mansion that maps out the progress on his own investigation.
Logue plays Captain Brian Tidwell, a womanizing, New York Police officer whoâs transferred to Los Angeles and has his eye on Crews' attractive female partner, Reese.
CBR News sat down with co-stars Damien Lewis and Donal Logue the about the current season of âLife,â the showâs conspiracies and mythology, comic books and Logueâs own comic book movie credentials.
CBR: Donal youâve been involved with a lot of comic book based films including âBlade,â âGhost Rider,â âAmerican Splendorâ and James Robinsonâs âComic Book Villains.â Are you a comic book fan?
Donal Logue: Itâs interesting because I really wasnât a big comic book guy and I think people assume I am. But I have a lot of respect for the genre and I have a lot of friends who were really into comic books. I kind of existed on the periphery of a scene of guys who were into fantasy, comic books, âDungeons & Dragonsâ and things when I was in high school and college. I think just being in âBladeâ and âGhost Riderâ put me in that comic book, Marvel world. But I love âComic Book Villainsâ because, you know, this English comic book writer, James Robinson, wrote a script about the people who have given their lives to comic books and how thereâs kind of a broader world out there.
|Donal Logue stars in "Life"
But, you know, itâs really fun. I think that thereâs a huge difference [between comic book films and âLifeâ]. But part of it is that thereâs a real joy as an actor to be able to just give yourself to being a vampire. But one absurd thing, like on âGhost Riderâ for instance, a lot the fans came down hard on the film adaptation of the comic book. And part of me honestly has to say, âLook, youâve got a guy on fire on a motorcycle. At what point do we really need to get too nitpicky about the criticism dramatically?â You know, I actually enjoy doing something like âLifeâ a lot more because itâs just realistic. Itâs just, you know, thereâs kind of this element of the real to it that I like.
âLifeâ has it's own mythology, much like âHeroesâ or âLost,â involving the conspiracy that wrongfully put Charlie Crews in Prison. What would you say to fans of those shows or comic book fans in general to get them interested in watching âLife?â
Damian Lewis: I think thereâs been a noticeable shift this season actually toward the mythology of comic book themes and certainly the way in which the show looks this season. I think the tone and the pallet of the show visually -- costumes, sets and color that weâre using, have been really heightened to sort of comic book proportions.
You know, I mean more poppy comic books, the brighter color ones, not the darker ones. But you know our girls, theyâre babes. Theyâre smoking and the bad guys are villains. They look that way. And the heroes look heroic, hopefully. You know, thatâs the world in which comic books set themselves. I think our show has become increasingly like that, actually, in a way that I was suspicious of to start with, but I think itâs been a great shift actually.
|Damien Lewis stars in "Life"
Logue: Comic books I think lend themselves so fantastically to film because theyâre visual stories. Theyâre all dialogue-driven. The subject has to be in the drawing or the writing as opposed to novels, which are so introspective. So itâs interesting to think about âLifeâ that way because it plays out neatly like a comic book that comes out in these weekly installments. You know, the more I become involved in comic books, the more I start to see them as a real genre of literature and start to appreciate them. But I hadnât even thought about that. Damian do you know if [producers] Far [Shariat] and Rand [Ranvich] looked to comic books for a lot of direction with âLifeâ or are they fans of the genre?
Lewis: I donât know whether they are personally, but I know that âLife,â as you were saying, has realistic elements. And certainly compared to doing something like âBlade,â it does. Itâs rooted in our every day kind of reality, but itâs heightened. âLifeâ is heightened in a way that comic books are. I think thatâs what makes it look visually different from other shows on TV and what gives us more scope in the playing of it. We can be a little bit more out there, a little bit more outrageous with it.
Damian, how much do you know about the overall conspiracy-plot of the show?
Lewis: Well, actually, as time has gone by Iâve wanted to know less and less. Iâve enjoyed the novel aspect of doing serious TV. You know, each week you read a new chapter and much like reading a novel it unfolds for you. There are times when itâs important, when I know what might be about to happen could relate to something in my past. But on the whole, Iâm happy to discover it each week. I think itâs why the show is loved by people because of the series and serial elements that the show has. Weâre able to run these two things concurrently. People can come, watch one hour, come away with something and have a story with a beginning, middle and an end as the crime is solved. But also constantly dipping into this ongoing mystery, which is the biggest crime in Crewsâ life. This is the biggest investigation of his life, you know, why did he go to prison? So yes, itâs fun. I think itâs really working on those two levels.
Is it safe to say that the conspiracy will last throughout the run of the series?
|The cast of "Life"
Lewis: Well you know, this may sound cynical but you never know in network TV, so I think the writers work as well as they can to tie up some loose ends at potential stopping points for the show; when the TV show might just be no more. So there will be some kind of answer given at the end of this season. But itâll also be left open in anticipation that weâll get a third season. And if we get a third season, you know, youâve seen Crewsâ conspiracy board in Crewsâ closet. There were six conspirators. Now, maybe Iâm reading too much into this but that sounds like six seasons to me.
Donal, was it the conspiracy aspect of âLifeâ that attracted you to the show and joining the cast?
Logue: I was more drawn to it because I didnât know who my character of Tidwell would be, exactly. I was more drawn to Rand Ravich and Far Shariat, who I had met because I had discussed with them the possibility of doing another show called âN.Y.-70.â So I liked those guys and I was always a fan of Damianâs work. It was more just talking to them about what the possibilities could be because I didnât know exactly who Tidwell was, how bombastic or how crude heâd be. Iâm not saying heâs really any of those things as much as I thought he might be in that way, but it was interesting. It was really very different from stuff I had been doing kind of immediately before it, so I think the juxtaposition felt even more severe.
You know, it is interesting because this Tidwell is a character that I probably understood least of any character Iâve ever played. I think that there was a broader kind of antagonism that I was supposed to show either towards the city of Los Angeles, the department or the character of Charlie Crews. But at the same time, I canât help but throw myself into the character having a lot of respect for Charlie Crews, liking him, liking his quirkiness, and liking his sense of humor.
|The cast of "Life"
But I just really kind of love the dynamic. You know, I get to be this like free-floating satellite that isnât tied to some of the broader conspiracy things. But I find myself every so often asking the big bosses like, âIs it possible that Tidwell has something really monumental to do with the conspiracy as to why Crews was behind bars for so long?â But they just kind of laugh it off.
Finally, several primetime police dramas have been adapted into comic books in recent years. â24,â âThe Shieldâ and âCSIâ just to name a few. Could you ever see âLifeâ being adapted into a comic book?
Lewis: Yes. Why not? Sounds fun.
Logue: You know, the comic book movie that I had a thumbprint on that was my favorite was âAmerican Splendor.â Maybe thatâs the way the Charlie Crews stuff could play out, like more viciously day-to-day life-like experience. But you know, itâs a good world and itâs growing. The showâs mythology has just grown so important that itâs just been unbelievable.
âLifeâ makes house arrests Wednesday nights on NBC.

Knee pads for Jesus?!?!
obviously down for some washing of feet
Knee pads? Is this some new kind of religious porn or something? Hutch maybe needs to talk to Ted Haggard about being on his knees.
or he is writing some Christian rock a'la Cartman
Here you go:
I wanna get down on my knees and start pleasing Jesus! I wanna feel his salvation all over my face!
"Strong Strategy", eh?
I bet the Aurora hookers are all over that euphemism in about 48 hours:
"Sure, honey, I do 'strong strategy', but it'll cost you extra."
kneepads for jesus is a multi-million dollar idea.
Hutch was totally asking for it with the knee pads reference. He probably reads and gets a kick out of these posts.
"Strong Strategy for the Lord"?!
"Confront the Corporation"?!
Damn, now I'm curious. Maybe he has a Yes Men-stye stunt lined up.
WTF? This is even stupider than usual.
Knee pads don't bother me until the Rev. starts talking about getting out the ChapStick.
He's try to get Microsoft to invite him to speak at their shareholder's meeting? So he can, what, confront them with the evils of their domestic partner benefits policy?
Why in the hell would Microsoft even be remotely interested in this? Please please please local media, don't pick this story up. I'm guessing coverage is his only goal.
Obviously, he's going to discuss terms for MS's surrender, in light of the powerful national boycott that Hutch+God led.
Sweet Jesus. knee pads...I'm overwhelmed with funny...too many jokes...
he should go so people can laugh at him. I am sure that one of the richest men in the world who is the modern day Ford really wants to listen to a backward idiot like hutcherson. I understand why hutcherson hates gays. I mean we are doing so much better than him. So go ahead asshole, preach your backward crap. You will be sitting in your same backward neighborhood 50 years from now while the rest of the world moves on.
his national ministries? you mean the ministries that are the last hope for hood idiots who are 10 years behind the technological revolution that gates started? The lord is not going to help you. you need to learn to stop blaming the gays and learn to help yourself. stop buying depreciable items, stop glorifying stupidity. the gays are not your worst enemy, you are. look in the mirror idiot, none of us gays are even giving you time of day. why is it that we have so much disposable income and you have none? are we taking your money? no....you CHOOSE to be stupid and CHOOSE to live the way you live.
yeah...this is bill gates. Now I have to order $50000 worth of kentucky fried chicken for my shareholders meeting.
The Fall '07 Southern Poverty Law Center Intelligence Report mentions Hutch in connection with Russian-speaking, anti gay Christian fundamentalists. It's a bit over the top, but worth reading.
@18: The SPLC report may be a bit over the top, but this is serious business. Let me tell you why:
1) These people are up and down the W Coast, including approximately 40 churches in Puget Sound alone.
2) Remember Micah Painter and the Russian thugs that beat him to a pulp? Remember that one of their defenses (not ultimately allowed by the courts) was that it was their upbringing and religion that made them do it.
3) These churches and people are beyond Fred Phelps' continual diatribe. They have used and will continue to use physical violence against members of the LGBT community. Ken Hutcherson has now actively aligned himself with a churches that want to encourage violence.
4) Considering that the members of these churches left the former Soviet Union and Russia because they believed they were being persecuted it's unbelievable to me that this country has open arms to those that now want to commit violence and encourage hatred against US citizens born and raised here that are members of a community they don't agree with. That's about as un-american as it gets far as I'm concerned.
That's why it's more important than ever to keep pressure up on the lovely Reverend Hutcherson. He's now fully aligned himself with people that want to hurt and kill people and have succeeded in doing so.
BTW, this bears some interest. How does a guy like Alexey Ledyaev get banned from Russia for his extremist views:
(see link at http://www.charismamag.com/display.php?id=6488 )
and then have a meeting with our lovely Rev. Ken Hutcherson, and Jay Hein of the Office of Faith Based Initiatives: (see story here at http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/03/white_house_contradicts_local_pastor_ken
I have a just a FEW questions in part 2 since you can only post 2 links at a time):
Continued from Part 1
1) Hutch, are you going to show up now at places where LGBT people are and seek violence against them? You've already said that this is a war:
(see this link http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/faithvalues/2003543693_hutcherson27m.html )
The people you've hooked up with certain want to use violence to maintain that "war".
2) Since Ledyaev was supposedly barred from Russia given his extremist views how does he pass muster with the White House? With the Secret Service? With the Department of Homeland Security?
3) Speaking of coming to the US, Hutch and his gang of "Watchmen on the Walls are having a 3 day convention at the Lynnwood Convention Center on October 19th, 20th and 21st.
Next to part 3
I guess I've posted my maximum... so I've emailed the rest of the post...
I just heard that Hutch and his ilk lost another battle in the culture wars.
The fundies in Oregon failed to get enough valid signatures to challenge domestic partnerships in that state.
Nothing fails like prayer.
Lynnwood has a convention center? How sad....
As for Pastor Hutch, I think his little band of thugs and religious nitwits should show up at the MS meeting and make a scene. Let the professional thugs from Blackwater or Pinkerton or whoever MS uses for security show them how they do things downtown. Maybe they'd get a trip to Uzbequistan. (however that is spelled)
@16 & 17, if they're not the same person:
You hateful piece(s) of shit. Read what you wrote again; notice how racist it is. You think that's better than the hot air that comes out of Hutcherson's ass? Well, it's not. It may be a different color, but it smells just as bad.
For some reason I don't think Microsoft really cares what Hutchison thinks especially considering the fact that MS had and still has a big name gay porn performer working for them in management. It's just live and be trashy out at that campus. Just get the stock price up!

Hi Matt
Why I never update:
-WordPress updates always BREAK some of my plugins or my theme or my customizations. That's dumb and unprofessional and unacceptable in a production environment. As a programmer, I would call that a bug. A very large bug.
How to fix that:
-restructure your app so there's better separation of your core from plugins and themes. Enable total plugin flexibility, but Don't allow any plugins to alter your core at all.
-explore and learn from the plugin architecture of other products.
-implement some kind of sandboxing or internal file-mirroring, so customizations can alter your core without altering your core.
-break your core files down into many more, smaller, and functionally isolated files, to minimize the impact of customizations.
-add a tag to all core files called "UserCustomized". Your updates would then skip those files, and/or Back them up and report file differences to the admin, so the admin can manually reapply the customizations.
-your updater would automatically reapply customizations after updating, at a line-by-line level. This would be facilitated by breaking your core down into more, smaller files.
-have stronger rules for certifying plugins, to ensure your updates don't break them.
Hope you can fix this.

I like this white pair. Usually when I see a white pair, there is some sheerness to them, but these don't have it. It is nice to see a pair that still has the coverage while still covering.

Great looking white jeans, but Audrina doesn't look nearly as adorable as she did a year ago. Her drastic cleavage removal has left her flat and shapeless. Not the Audrina we loved on The Hills.

text: I'm not able to crop images in 3.5 -- or at least I'm having lots of trouble figuring out how to do it. The instructions are the same as they've always been -- click on the image, drag to select the desired part, etc. -- but all it does is have a copy of the image moving with that universal zero-with-a-cross-thru-it symbol. I'm using Firefox. Also I have two blogs with separate themes, and it's the same with both. Appreciate any help.

Zen and Comparative StudiesPalgrave Macmillan 1996; US$ 176.00
