Having said that I would like to convey how much I loved this film. Director Wayne Wang instilled `Snow Flower and the Secret Fan' with the same depth of emotion and sensitivity that made his `Joy Luck Club' such a moving and memorable viewing experience.
The storyline moves neatly back and forth between two sets of Chinese women living in different times (Lily and Snow Flower in 1829 China, Nina and Sophia in present day Shanghai). Though time and place differ, the shared cultural and spiritual bonds formed by their mutual `vows of sisterhood' are identical and timeless. Bingbing Li plays the parts of both Lily and Nina and Gianna Jun the dual roles of Snow Flower and Sophia. Both story lines are engaging but clearly the Snow Flower and Lily tale is the more important of the two. Nevertheless the present day friendship between Nina and Sophia is essential to the intent of the film, providing not only context to the earlier friendship but a cultural bridge between past, present and future. In other words, while everything around us is constantly changing what's really important in life remains the same.Read more ›
The movie takes a different approach than the novel in that it has two parallel story lines - one set in the present featuring two young women who are kindred spirits, but whose friendship is eventually strained by conflicting ideas regarding relationships, lifestyle, etc. On the same day that she receives news that she has a job opportunity in New York, Nina (Li BingBing) receives news that her estranged best friend, Sophia (Gianna Jun) has been in an accident and is in hospital. As Nina goes through Sophia's things at the hospital, she comes across a manuscript, parts of a story of two women in 19th century China, whose friendship mirror Nina and Sophia's own close bond.
The trouble is that this parallel storyline does not work - by dividing the story up into two disparate timelines, not much time is spent in developing the central characters.Read more ›
I read and completely loved Snow Flower and the Secret Fan, so I went into this movie with some expectations. Knowing this is a movie, however, I was ready for the artistic license. I was a little confused by the modern setting, but hey, let's get past the first 10 minutes before I start judging.
I actually liked that they paralleled the two stories of the women, modern and past. I suppose if you hadn't read the book the film would seem jumpy, so I see this as a visual supplement to the book in some ways. I can see where others may get confused with the relationship between Snow Flower and Lily (friends? Lovers?) but this is from a different era. They didn't enter the relationship that way and it is not described that way at all. They were each others comfort and in so many ways soul mates, but they were not sexual...
Anywho, read the book, enjoy it. Watch the movie...realize it is NOT the book verbatim, enjoy it too. It's not a travesty of an adaptation, it's an interesting, tear jerking, new take on a wonderful story.
I was particularly interested in watching this movie because I have lived in the orient and I was eager to see how it would be depicted. There is something that most Americans do not understand, and that is that oriental cultures have histories and deep-seated traditions that Americans have a difficult time imagining. This movie is about one such custom - a custom where young women bind themselves to one another in a life-long mutually supportive relationship.
These relationships were vital to the happiness of many Chinese women, especially those of higher social status. Marriage for them was almost always a matter of an arrangement for social status, wealth, alliances between families, etc. They were seldom marriages of love, at least initially. The primary role of women in that society was to provide their husbands with social status and sons. Since this is the case, women of status relied heavily on female-female relationships for emotional support.
This film depicts this sort of relationship, and involved three interwoven story lines - one set in early 1800s China, one set in modern Shanghai, and one set about a decade or so earlier than today.
As you watch the film you will see parallels between the story lines, and the same two women play the main characters in all three story lines. I found that to be a memorable part of the film.Read more ›

Brad likes it, so he's gonna…you know.
Is it or isn't it? Only his jeweler knows for sure! LOL
So many questions…
A little discretion goes a long way in the adult world, Luann. You're still not there yet.
Brad should lie and tell Luann that it is only a gold pin depicting a heart with an arrow piercing it.
I hope Brad is paying Luann for all this down time with Shannon. It's a little more than a small favor…
If it is a ring, Toni might have a cow.
The last time Brad brought up the subject, she seemed upset enough to break up with him.
Luann the incurable romantic. If she can't have it she wants to live it vicariously through Brad and Toni. Still she needs a bit of restraint here.
knnew it!!! knew it!! valentine's day, 2013. I am pretty sure its a ring. Only doubt because Greg has been known to misdirect his comic's fans from time to time. I hope not this time. It also makes sense that Toni would glady accept a proposal this time. They are much closer, which has should have been clear to anyone closely following this two week, maybe three weeka arc, Shannon is closer and closer to Brad (as someone pointed out she called Brad, Brad, not Bwad) and Toni is far more emotionally ready to accept a proposal, I think the biggest question is will Toni pick Luann to be her maid-of-honor and we know who the best man will be. Oh the drama!! It makes up for all the sad news in the rest of the rag or internet we all read everyday.
Tickets to a basketball game most likely.
a valentine proposal, how sweet
……..and if she says no, MAJOR FAIL………….
poor Brad……….
Maybe it's the condom he never got to use with Diane (kidding)
"The last time Brad brought up the subject, she seemed upset enough to break up with him."
I remember that last time – I think it may have appeared here:
Seems strange that he would wrap the ring like that, especially since she's already seen it… unless he took it back, previously… Anyway, I think it will likely BE a ring… on the other hand, it could be a small chain or a bracelet; either way, I think there will be a proposal…leastwise, I hope so; after all, there's only 7 years left in this decade, and we all know how slowly things happen in Luanndia

I am trying to create a shortcode called 'year' that I can place within pages as I have documents which should always refer to the current year. I have used the following in my functions.php:
function year_shortcode() {
$year = the_time('Y');
return $year;
add_shortcode('year', 'year_shortcode');
This brings the current year into the page but it sits at the top of the div rather than inline with the text. I'm wondering if the_time is being echoed despite the fact I used return? Can I use &echo=0 somewhere?

TEHKIKAT DVD AWESOMEI have to tell you this DVD just brought the good old days of Doordarshan. i enjoyed this when i was in school and i also enjoyed it now with the same excitement. Packing was impeccable as was delivery. The video quality is too good so is the audio. Recommended for collectors if you really like to see some standard detective series, not like the substandard ones now shown.

Are You A Werewolf is the BEST game I have ever played!!! Since the game requires at least 8 players, the first time I pulled the game out I actually had to BEG several people to just give me 20 minutes to try the game. After 20 minutes no one wanted to quit. In fact, within the hour we had 16 people playing. Everyone had a great time. We ended up playing that first time for 2 1/2 hrs; laughing hysterically the whole time.
If you can get at least 8 people together you must try this game!!! FYI There are other versions of Werewolf that can accommodate even more than 16 players.
To add a little atmosphere to the game, when the Moderator begins to read the script, "It is night. The moon is full...", our group howls at the moon. This may sound corny, but it is a very effective way to get everyone into the right mood...
I just came from Anime Next anime convention. I spent 2 nights playing Are you are werewolf? Around 2-3am leaving. I must say, it kept everyone up. The more people you have, the better the game was. First few rounds are slow, but after a while, you get everyone. Everyone develops a strategy.
Your a humble villager, you go to sleep for the night, the only problem is your next door neighbor didnt wake up. his body is found by the town of villagers. he was killed, by a werewolf.
LETS GET HIM! a villager crys, then someone points out that the werewolf is probably umong them...
Decide who to lynch, stay innocent, there are 2 werewolfs around, you might even be one of them. Choose someone to lynch, but be careful, if the town decides not to lynch them, you may be next.
Cant look too innocent, night may come around, and the werewolfs will kill another.
Are you a werewolf?
This game is great, at Origins 2002 gaming convention(www.originsgames.com) me and about 14 other people Played this game for 12 hours non stop.
This game requires 8+ people so its not something you can play with a friend on a saturday afternoon, but, if you have 8 or so bored people sitting around, theres no end to the fun you can have.
This game could end in as soon as 15 minutes, or go for as long as 12 hours
Only the survivors win.
We play this almost every week. There are some people (i.e., me) who almost always get lynched early even though we're almost always innocent, and some whom I swear can tell when I'm a werewolf (so I'll maul them first). The psychology and poker face aspects are great. It is fun to play, and never drags.
The main downside is that once you're out (generally through no fault of your own), you don't get to play while the subsequent rounds continue. Even with 5 minute rounds, you can be sitting out for quite a while.
The other downside is that you need to gather a large number of players to play it. It's not worth bothering to start with fewer than 7 or so, plus a moderator.
This is an odd game, no two ways about it. It also stands as one of the better party games I have ever seen.
The basic premise is that a village has become infested with werewolves who are preying on the villagers. Their objective is to eliminate the werewolves from their midst by voting on who should be lynched each day, while the werewolves finish off a villager each night. A gory theme, granted, but decidedly less so in execution. This is a hilarious game.
There is lots of bluff and posturing in this game, as players try to defend themselves and stay alive from round to round. This is a game where verbal skills are put to the test, as the secret werewolves try to keep suspicion away from them, and innocent villagers are done in by mob mentality.
The game is quite cheap to purchase, but honestly, not much is needed in components, other than cards to determine which role to play, and rules. These are found easily enough on the Internet, as well as rules for a more complex version called 'The Mafia of Kansas City.' Still, this version only costs a few bucks and is a lot less trouble than printing and mounting your own set of cards.
This is a very good game, given the right group. Recommended.

The Big Ten is still perfect in 2010. All three teams in action Thursday night came out victorious. You've already seen my thoughts on Ohio State-Marshall.
Let's take a look at the other two games:
Minnesota 24, Middle Tennessee 17: It wasn't a masterpiece, but Minnesota took a big step toward establishing its offensive identity. Coach Tim Brewster has talked about "pound the rock" for a while, but until Thursday night, the Gophers hadn't been that power-run, clock-killing offense. They achieved both of those goals in a big way at Middle Tennessee, rushing for 281 yards and holding the ball for 45:34. That's exactly what new offensive coordinator Jeff Horton wants to do with this unit. Running back Duane Bennett had a huge night (30 carries, 187 yards), and I couldn't be happier for fullback Jon Hoese, who scored all three Minnesota touchdowns, including the game-winner in the fourth quarter. Hoese nearly didn't make the trip after his father suffered a severe stroke this week. He ends up playing, scoring three touchdowns and recovering a fumble on a kickoff return. He'll be getting a helmet sticker Saturday night. Minnesota's defense looked shaky at times in the middle quarters but did enough to win, and senior quarterback Adam Weber completed 10 of 17 passes. Most important, Minnesota played a more disciplined game, committing no turnovers and had just four penalties. The Gophers had to take advantage of Middle Tennessee without Dwight Dasher, and they did with a second-half rally.
Indiana 51, Towson 17: Tandon Doss' absence clearly didn't slow down the Indiana offense, which surged both through the air and, more importantly, on the ground. As I expected, Damarlo Belcher picked up the slack for the injured Doss and came up big with eight receptions for 96 yards and a touchdown. Ben Chappell did what senior quarterbacks are supposed to do against poor FCS teams and delivered an efficient performance (17-for-24 passing, 186 yards, 2 touchdowns). But the big story was Willis and the run game. Coach Bill Lynch introduced the pistol formation to spark the rushing attack, but Indiana has been inconsistent and Willis has struggled to stay healthy. The junior back looked great Thursday with 102 rush yards and two touchdowns on only 13 carries. Linebacker Tyler Replogle led the defense, and two defensive backs who used to play receiver, Mitchell Evans and Matt Ernest, both recorded interceptions. Indiana has to capitalize on a very soft nonconference slate, and Thursday night was the first step.

text: Posted November 4, 2012 Has that EVER happened? I do not see it under any circumstance. occasionally a coordinator will receive a demotion and stay, but there's no precedent for it leaguewide and it takes both sides to want that to happen. Richard Williamson stepped down from OC back to WR s coach between 01-02, Ron Meeks went from '10 coordinator to '11 DBs coach. But for the most part, firing a coach means severing ties with him.

What if.
What if Baylor and Oregon's nuclear, technicolor offenses crossed paths, cramming their unique styles, offenses and carnage into one space.
In all likelihood, these two will not meet, at least not this season. But if somehow, someway these forces were to collide—the ultimate "don't cross the streams" scenario—the end result could be unprecedented Las Vegas intrigue and, of course, unprecedented excess.
"The over/under in this game would be a record NCAA total, right around 91.5," Bovada.lv sportsbook manager Kevin Bradley said. "I would expect this matchup to take more money than any other potential BCS matchup because of the high scoring potential that our bettors love."
For perspective, the largest total in college football history actually surfaced last season, and yes, Baylor was involved. Oklahoma State was the other part of this equation, and the over/under closed at an absurd 88. While these two teams gave the over a good run, the combined 75 points proved to be a couple of touchdowns short.
Baylor and Oregon would almost certainly topple this record and do so with relative ease.
Right now, however, it's purely hypothetical. It's more realistic than generating an absurd point spread featuring [insert power house college team here, likely Alabama] vs. [insert horrendous NFL team here, likely the Jacksonville Jaguars], an exercise we seem to undertake yearly. But that's not saying much.
Yet, this scenario is not an impossibility, and for the sake of entertainment and scoreboard operators requiring IVs after the first quarter, we should welcome even the notion of it taking shape.
For it to transpire, both teams would likely have to meet in the BCS Championship Game. The scenario is at least gaining steam in Vegas circles.
Oregon has the second best odds to win the BCS National Championship on the sportsbook Bovada, sitting at a valueless 21/10 and behind only Alabama. Baylor has watched its odds nosedive following its incredible start. In fact, Bovada didn't post odds on the Bears when its initial odds came out in January. Some sportsbooks had Baylor as high as 300/1.
The Bears are now 12/1 to win the BCS National Championship on Bovada, tied with Florida State and Clemson, and behind only Ohio State, Oregon and Alabama.
David Purdum has covered the sports betting industry for five years, and he recently explored this incredible drop in odds for Baylor. Outside of the impressive play, a hefty wager came in on the Bears, shrinking these odds down as low to 6/1 in some places.
As for the possibility of an Oregon-Baylor matchup, Purdum has also discussed the potential impact it would have.
"Ed Salmons, head oddsmaker at the LVH SuperBook, projected the total would be somewhere in the mid-90s, but added that 'we're not far from having a college football total in the hundreds.'" Purdum said. "Think about all the potential prop bets that would come with this game, as well. Will any team score in the first minute? Will the scoreboard malfunction?"
Yes, "will the scoreboard malfunction" would put the measly "heads or tails" prop bets to shame. Also, don't rush to an answer. After all, the offense on display in this game could power a small village.
Together, Oregon and Baylor have combined to score 613 points in 11 games played. Baylor is No. 1 in points scored (63.4 points per game) and Oregon isn't far behind (56.8 points per game).
Did you know? Baylor averages 49.8 PPG in the 1st half! That's more than every team but Oregon & Florida State average for a game— ESPN Stats & Info (@ESPNStatsInfo) October 10, 2013
With the incredible avalanche of points and gaudy offensive numbers have come enormous expectations from oddsmakers, and more specifically, enormous point spreads.
Oregon and Baylor have been favored by a combined 340.5 points in 2013—good for an average of 31 points per game. These numbers are even more impressive when you realize they have not been enough. The Ducks and the Bears have combined to go 10-1 against the spread.
"Baylor had covered the spread in 10 straight games before failing to do so against Kansas State," Purdum noted. "That was the longest streak in the nation. Now, Oregon owns that streak. The Ducks have covered in eight straight games."
The tempo and production of the offenses can be a challenge to assess when it comes to point spreads and totals. That's not just the case for the average football fan looking to invest in a side, but also the individuals tasked with creating the sides to be picked.
Todd Fuhrman is a former Caesars bookmaker and current market analyst at Donbest.com. He knows the challenges of handicapping these teams while determining how the public might respond.
"The difficult part is trying to gauge public perception, because the public wants to bet on teams that can score quickly," Fuhrman said. "Seven points to Baylor or Oregon is not the same as seven points to a more methodical offense like, say, Florida. These teams not only move faster, but they can also change games and payouts in a matter of minutes with the pace at which they play."
Let's Play the Hypothetical: Oregon (-9.5) vs. Baylor, Who Ya Got?
More difficult than simply gauging points scored, the spread in this game would vary a great deal. Each has proved its Vegas worth in recent months, although no team has destroyed inflated point spreads quite like Oregon.
"Right now I'd have Oregon as a 9.5-point favorite over Baylor, give or take," Bradley said. "The Ducks are clearly a touchdown favorite."
Others could see a number much higher. And the differing stances help showcase just how difficult these teams are to understand, even for the experts.
"John Avello, executive director at the Wynn sportsbook, told me last week that he'd have Oregon -14.5," Purdum said. "He also said he'd hang the total at 100."
Handicapping one of these teams can be difficult enough. Handicapping both could prove to be a fascinating but challenging proposition for Las Vegas. The possibilities (and points) are seemingly endless.
For now, oddsmakers won't have to fret over the appropriate total or point spread that will garner betting to their liking. The game does not exist, and it will likely stay that way unless the stars align.
We can only hope that somehow, someway they do.

Subjects: Classical Literature , Classical Languages
Friedrich Gottlieb Welcker (1784–1868) was one of the most engaging and creative of German philologists during the formative period of modern classical scholarship; 'one of the heroes', Wilamowitz called him. Art, poetry and religion were to him all the same object of study, and a key to the world of Greek imagination and feeling. His attempt to grasp the meaning of all Greek mythology gave impetus to a still vigorous tradition. This work (in two volumes, first published 1835 and 1849) is his effort to recover the lost epics of the archaic period, and the conditions of their performance and transmission. If his adventurous reconstructions, here and in his companion work on Greek tragedy, do not always command assent, they offer many brilliant observations and insights. His influence has been as diffuse as it is unacknowledged; again and again one finds on reading him that Welcker said it first.

How is it "killing" the Club exactly ?? Last time I looked, the Reds were doing fine thank you very much !As far as the foreign signings are concerned....either get with the times, or get left behind. I think recent World Cups bare witness to the fact that the home nations seem to be there to make up the numbers as they are just not good enough ! Besides, Liverpool have Finnan, Gerrard and Carragher starting almost every game, with Pennant and Crouch right up there on the starting roster. Look at the teams that are made up mostly of players that hail from the British Isles...yup, all at the bottom of the Premiership(fighting relegation every season) and in the championship !

So we've erased some of the blemishes, we've lightened some of the, the laugh lines and age lines, and now we're ready to really dig deep into our retouching. If you look over to the right side, you have a lot of sliders that you could work with, and you'll notice that the sliders have actually already been moved a little bit to the right. It started correcting its best guess for fixing the skin tone. Now I can see the before and after simply by doing one of two things. I could turn on and off the preview.
And as you can see, there's a little smoothing that's already happened. I could also go to this drop down and go to an after or a before. Well what I want to do I want to find out exactly what it's determining as skin versus the rest of the image. And to do that I'm going to switch from this before or after choice, to one of my mask choices. I'm going to switch over to the white mask. And I can see very easily, that it found the skin really, really well.
But there's a couple of areas, like in the hair, which it thinks might be skin. So it might be smoothing hair, when that should have detail. And it missed a little bit on the neck. I'm going to zoom out just a little bit with the Cmd-minus key. And if I wanted to add some area to the neck or remove some area from the hair, all I have to do is paint over it. Because when I'm in this mode, I have a brush and I can simply brush out, what should be hair. And if I want to add skin, I can go over here and switch from Not Skin, to Add Skin.
The keyboard shortcut for this is X, which is really useful, because I can easily toggle back and forth, in case I overshoot. Such as there, I simply want to hit the X key and I can go ahead and paint that out. So I'm going to paint in a little bit more of the neck, and maybe remove a little bit of the hair over here. Now I know I'm just working with her skin tone. I'm going to go ahead, switch back to the After choice.
Zoom in just a little bit so we can really see what's happening, and now start working with the sliders. Now, I can't fully see everything on the right side of my screen. I have a lower resolution monitor, so it looks a little clearer for you to work with. So, if you want to scale back to the size of your screen, just go ahead and you can press the little resize button, now we see everything and now I can work with the sliders. The first thing I may want to do is play with the Blemish sliders, and as I move that to the right, it starts removing the larger blemishes on her faces.
It doesn't really smooth things out, but it's useful for removing, of course, age spots, or if the person is young and they have some sort of acne problem. You can easily erase those with the blemish slider. I can go ahead and smooth out the skin, now I use this with caution, because a lot of times people pull this way over to the right and everybody looks like plastic Barbie doll, and it immediately looks like they've been retouched. The art of retouching a person is making them look like you see them in real life, versus erasing every possible line.
When you meet somebody you don't look for their lines, you don't see lines in their face, you see the person! So my goal is to make this look like the person that I normally would see. And I can work with a lot of elements, if their skin is shiny, because maybe it was a hot day, or the sun was shining on them. I can go ahead and move this slider to the right and it removes some of the shine. And if I needed to add texture back in, I can go ahead and add texture in with the texture slider, and that makes the skin look a little more natural. The best suggestion is to play with these sliders and constantly switch back and forth between turning the preview on and turning the preview off.
Now another slider that's very useful is something called Evenness. And if you look at a person's skin tone, there's probably parts of their skin that's redder or darker or lighter, and you want it to be more natural or more fluid. And that's where evenness comes in. So, I can go ahead and move that slider over, and if I really go all the way over to the right just to prove a point, you see that it will smooth out the skin but now it looks a little bit flat, it's too even. So let's go ahead and bring that back and a lot of times I only use this if the person has very rosy cheeks or rosacea.
And I want to make sure there's a nice, smooth skin tone. Acne's another situation where I may use Evenness. Now, there's a check box here which says Face Only. Now in this case, we're really lucky, because her face is fairly isolated, because the dress is a high collar. And we have the green background. But suppose it was a wedding dress that was off the shoulder. I may want to switch from Face Only to the entire body. Now, when you do this, be a little bit careful because sometimes it will affect other parts of your image.
We'll switch back to Face Only and slide down and look at some of the other controls. Now the Color Correction slider allows you to add a little more warmth or skin tone if the person happens to be blown out, or even if they're just pale. Now you can play with these sliders all day, and you won't see much of a difference until you start working with the Amount slider. And as soon as I move that over, you can see how it's affecting the image. Once we've done that, let's go back, pull back some of the warmth.
And probably pull back the Amount a little bit. Now there's also an Ethnicity drop-down menu, and of course different ethnicities may have different skin tones. So whether the person is white or black and so forth, it's best to choose the skin tone that matches their ethnicity. Now once we've done that, let's continue down and take a look at how it works with both the eyes and the lips. Now I can easily whiten the eyes, and if I bring it all the way over it might be too much. People don't have really incredibly bright white eyes.
But it's great for removing some of the redness in eyes, or maybe if a person has duller eyes. Now, what's really nice is the Detail slider. And to really show this off, I'm going to zoom in a little bit closer. And as I slide the detailer in the eyes, it really makes them pop. And by making the eyes really sharp, the image looks much sharper. Now, again, just like with skin retouching, you can go overboard with the eyes where they don't look natural. Once you move things to the right, think about it for a little bit and pull things back.
Now if there's a situation where you like how sharp the eyes are, but you're seeing a little bit of fringing there, simply go back to your mask, and you can see where that overlap is. And now I'll simply click over here, get my brush back, and make sure you switch it from Not Skin, if you have that set back to Skin. I'm going to hit the X key and I can simply paint out all that extra area, such as her eyelashes, because I don't want those affected.
And now when I switch back, you'll notice that I don't have that red fringing as much. Now let's move down to the lips, and we can go ahead and play with this slider. Now, sometimes these lines may be distracting, so if you look at the top of your screen, there's two buttons, there's one that says Reset Face on the right and this one is Hide or Show Mouth and Eye Control. By clicking that, you no longer see this area that's being highlighted but you're still affecting it, so if you notice I pull the vibrance up, it's going to brighten her lips, which is a little bit crazy here.
So this is really good if the person wasn't wearing a lot of lipstick, but in this case I really don't want to push it. Again, if I need to, because I might have a little bit of overflow there, I could switch back to show my controls and just bring this down a little bit to make sure that the upper lip is not affected. Let's jump back, full screen, zoom into just her face, and look at the image before and after our retouching. If you wanted to you can actually look at this either side by side or split screen by clicking on this button here, and it switches you between different viewing options.
So if I wanted to, I could have her face dead center and on the left side is before and the right side is after. This is a very efficient way of working so you have perspective on how you retouched your image.

Arlington's own Remy — he of Arlington Rap fame — is out with a new music video (above), just in time for the Fourth of July.
Set to the tune of Toby Keith's "Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue," Remy skewers the chipping away of American civil liberties in the wake of terrorist attacks.
Video via Reason.tv
Remy Munasifi, the maestro behind the timeless Arlington Rap, has a new music video that's sure to attract some attention.
Rather than parodying Arlington and its many brown flip flops and Starbucks, Remy has this time turned his comic crosshairs on Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.
Borrowing the hook from Drake's "Started From the Bottom," Remy skewers Trump's statement at a Today Show town hall event this week: "It has not been easy for me… I started off in Brooklyn, my father gave me a small loan of a million dollars."
Throughout the video Remy juxtaposes Trump's "I'm really rich" braggadocio with images of his failed business ventures.
Remy produced the music video for ReasonTV, which is part of the libertarian think tank Reason Foundation. Reason has been critical of Trump's brand of politics, particularly his anti-immigration stances.
Clarendon resident, Arab-American comedian and minor internet celebrity Remy Munasifi has released a new music video.
This time around, the "Arlington Rap" star is parodying the pop hit "All About That Bass" with "All About That Paste," a tribute to his love of hummus.
In the video, Remy pokes fun at store-bought "white people humis" that lacks tahini, and cautions against dipping carrots and tortilla chips in hummus.
"Hummus is like Katniss, it needs pita," Remy raps.
The video also features Remy's mother, who dances in the background in several scenes.

Arlington Was Home to the Original Twitter — Arlington residents had access to Twitter as early as the 1950s. Well, perhaps not all residents — mostly Henry Clay Elementary School students. Twitter was the name of the Clarendon-based school's newspaper, copies of which are now available for review at Arlington Central Library. [Preservation Arlington]

Clarendon's own Remy Munasifi, of Arlington Rap fame, is continuing his comedy campaign against the Transportation Security Administration with a new holiday-themed video.
Remy again collaborated with the libertarian Reason TV website to create the video, entitled "I Saw Daddy Pat Down Santa Claus (A Very TSA Christmas Song)."
The video features plenty of suggestive gags at the TSA's expense, including Remy holding a nutcracker with a sign reading "Only the TSA May Handle Nuts" in the background, and Remy holding a candy cane next to a sign reading "Only TSA may handle kids' junk (food)." At one point Remy also fondles Jolly Old St. Nick's groin region.
Reason has been critical of the TSA's heavy-handed approach to airport security.
'Arlington Rap' guy Remy Munasifi is out with a new music video.
Created for the libertarian Reason Magazine, the video is an homage to the soon-to-be-phased-out incandescent light bulb, set to the music from the Police's "Every Breath You Take."
The video debuted last night on the Fox Business Channel program Stossel.

Hi, I hope someone can help. I've created a site, http://english-language-words.com or http://www.english-language-words.com
I had the site as a different domain before (michaelcote.com) but of course this was temporary, and the site indexed just fine. Then i bought http://www.english-language-words.com (because that's what the site is, so the domain should reflect it), but it's been weeks and google search brings up nothing when i search either english-language-words.com, http://www.english-language-words.com , http://english-language-words.com , or http://www.english-language-words.com ..
I'm not sure why google wont' index the new domain when the old one was indexed very quickly. I've used the webmaster tools, under health, and index.
One thing i do notice is that i have alot of broken links( that I'm working to clean up), since moving the site to the new domain i lost alot of the pages.
If anyone knows a solution, or if I'm just missing something obvious, please let me know, as I'm new to building webpages.
Thank You:)

Studies on the impact of single nutrients on the risk of CVD have often given inconclusive results. Recent research on dietary patterns has offered promising information on the effects of diet as a whole on the risk of CVD. The Cardiovascular Risk in Young Finns Study is an ongoing, prospective cohort study with a 21-year follow-up to date. The subjects were children and adolescents at baseline (3–18 years, n 1768) and adults at the latest follow-up study (24–39 years, n 1037). We investigated the associations between two major dietary patterns and several risk factors for CVD. In longitudinal analyses with repeated measurements, using multivariate mixed linear regression models, the traditional dietary pattern (characterised by high consumption of rye, potatoes, butter, sausages, milk and coffee) was independently associated with total and LDL cholesterol concentrations, apolipoprotein B and C-reactive protein concentrations among both genders, and also with systolic blood pressure and insulin levels among women and concentrations of homocysteine among men (P < 0·05 for all). A dietary pattern reflecting more health-conscious food choices (such as high consumption of vegetables, legumes and nuts, tea, rye, cheese and other dairy products, and alcoholic beverages) was inversely, but less strongly associated with cardiovascular risk factors. Our results support earlier findings that dietary patterns have a role in the development of CVD.

Romantic getaways boost Gatwick numbers
Gatwick is set for a record breaking Valentine's weekend and half term holiday - with almost a million passengers passing through its doors. That's a 6 per cent increase on last year. Geneva is the most popular destination for the third year in a row, as families head to the ski slopes.
An unprecedented 982,000 people are expected to use the airport between Friday February 13 and Sunday February 22. Passenger numbers for the Valentine's Day weekend alone are also up by 7.9%, with the total number of flyers at more than 400,000. Couples travelling on Valentine's Day will be treated to a gift of a teddy bear and a box of luxury chocolates to ensure love is in the air, and a Queen of Hearts stilt walker will be in the terminal to meet and greet.
City breaks dominate the great British getaways, with Barcelona in second place, closely followed by Dublin and Amsterdam. Nick Pope, Operations Manager at London Gatwick, said "The figures show record numbers will be travelling through the airport during the upcoming Valentine's weekend and half-term, and we look forward to welcoming passengers and helping them enjoy the experience of travelling through Gatwick.

More than £30 million has been pledged to improve the area around Gatwick with new houses, transport infrastructure and jobs.
The announcement was made by Conservative MP for Portsmouth North Penny Mordaunt at Gatwick Airport this morning.
Plane returns to Gatwick after part falls off
A passenger jet was forced to return to Gatwick Airport part-way through its flight to Egypt after a part plunged to the ground.
Thomas Cook Flight TCX1638 left the West Sussex airport at 9am this morning with 237 passengers on board but had to turn back a short time into its flight to Hurghada.
The object is believed to have fallen from the plane near the Kent and East Sussex border, but it was not until the jet was over Belgium that the fault was reported.
None of the passengers were injured after the over wing slide unit plummeted, which led to a probe by the Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) being launched.
A Kent Police spokesman said:
"Kent Police was called at 11.15am to reports of an object falling from an airplane above the Langton Green and Groombridge area.
"Officers are trying to locate the object which is believed to have landed close to the Kent and Sussex border. Anyone with information should contact 101."
Whilst airborne, the slide unit has fallen from the aircraft and we are aware that local police have been informed.
The aircraft landed safely at Gatwick Airport and we are now immediately undertaking a full investigation and working with the airline authorities. We'd like to apologise to our customers for the delay to their flight.
Ebola screening at Gatwick
Screening for Ebola at Gatwick Airport will begin, say Public Health Enland.
It will start in North Terminal, then checks will begin at South Terminal,
followed by St Pancras (Eurostar) later this week, a spokesman said.
He added: "This expands the screening initiated at Heathrow last week, which
is going well. Manchester and Birmingham airports will follow in the coming
"Screening is being undertaken to help ensure individuals arriving from
high-risk areas know what to do if they start feeling ill, and can receive
expert advice immediately. We are also providing all general practices,
emergency departments, and pharmacies in England with awareness posters from
this week. Public Health England will continue to consider other appropriate
additional measures."
The screening is taking place for passengers that Border Force officers
identify as having travelled from Sierra Leone, Guinea and Liberia.<
Passengers have their temperature taken and complete a questionnaire asking
about their current health, recent travel history and whether they might be at
potential risk through contact with Ebola patients.<
Based on the information provided and their temperature, passengers will either
be given advice and allowed to continue their journey, or undergo a clinical
assessment by PHE staff and if necessary be transferred to hospital for further
"Screening is being undertaken to help ensure individuals arriving from high-risk areas know what to do if they start feeling ill, and can receive expert advice immediately. We are also providing all general practices, emergency departments, and pharmacies in England with awareness posters from this week.

Reports British man has died from Ebola as airports start enhanced screenings
A British man who is thought to have contracted Ebola has died in Macedonia, according to a senior government official in the country.
The UK is to begin enhanced screening of passengers from Ebola-affected countries at Heathrow, Gatwick and Eurostar terminals, Downing Street has announced.
Earlier, a top US medical official warned that the epidemic could be the "next Aids" if not contained quickly, while the chief of the World Bank said the future of the African continent could be at stake if the spread is not halted.
It comes after the World Health Organisation reported that the recorded number of deaths from Ebola has almost reached 4,000 worldwide and warned the real number could be more.

The arrest of five people, including an alleged pimp, by Norwich police last week was part of what the FBI announced Monday as a nationwide law enforcement sweep designed to identify children being victimized through prostitution.
The FBI joined with local, state and other federal law enforcement agencies and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, for "Operation Cross Country 7," which started on Friday.
The FBI said the operation was conducted in 76 cities across 47 FBI divisions nationwide and led to the recovery of 105 children being victimized through prostitution. Additionally, 159 accused pimps were arrested on state and federal charges, the FBI said. The sweep is part of the FBI's Innocence Lost Initiative.
The FBI's New Haven Division said five underage prostitutes were rescued and cases against their accused pimps are progressing. It is unclear where in the state the underage prostitutes were found. The FBI worked with the state police computer crimes unit and local police departments in Norwich, Berlin, West Hartford, Milford and New Haven.
Norwich police Lt. Mark Rankowitz said police, through the department's special FBI liaison, Officer Julie St. Jean, worked for months leading up to Friday's operation.
Four women, three from out of state, were all arrested at a Norwich hotel that worked with authorities, Rankowitz said. The women who arrived to meet their clients in Norwich were all over the age of 18, though. They were arrested for prostitution, Rankowitz said. A Rhode Island man was charged with promoting prostitution.
Rankowitz said the women arrested as part of the federal investigation had posted online ads for their services.
"The truly sad thing about underage prostitution is not only that it exists, but that child prostitutes are frequently forced into this lifestyle," said Special Agent Kimberly K. Mertz, head of the New Haven FBI. "It's heartbreaking to hear the stories of how they came to be involved in prostitution and their inability to get out."
FBI New Haven Supervisory Special Agent Sean Gordon, in a statement, said the operation was aimed at safely removing children from their "horrible situations."
"That said, we also work diligently to locate and identify pimps and prostitution networks with the goal of prosecuting them and getting them out of business," he said.
Gordon said the state Department of Children and Families "has been the driving force to educate the public about underage prostitution and child trafficking and to provide safe havens for these children who are taken off the streets."
