The 5 Worst Lyric Changes in Covers of Famous Songs
#2. The Animals Change the Narrator's Gender (And Therefore the Whole Point of) "The House of the Rising Sun"
Do you know "The House of the Rising Sun" by the Animals? If you do, relax, I'm not going to rag on it. It's one of the best rock songs of the '60s, and it contains one of the best rock/blues/pop vocals ever. It really is a great song, and I can't say the Animals messed up the original, because no one even knows who wrote the original, and, therefore, it's ripe for reinvention. Nevertheless, even though it's a traditional song, it's traditionally about a woman.
It was about a woman when Woody Guthrie sang it and Bob Dylan and Joan Baez and Nina Simone. Woody and Bob didn't mind that it was about a woman even when they sang it in first person, and Nina and Joan were cool with that, too. And although the lyrics are not overt, it becomes pretty clear that when it's sung in the traditional female perspective, it's about ending up a hooker in a house of prostitution.
Now supposedly the record-buying public wouldn't accept an Animals song about prostitution (which is odd, because no one seemed to mind all those other artists recording versions earlier than the Animals), so they made it about a man. And the house became more of a gambling house rather than a boning for money house ...
"The ruin of many a poor girl" BECAME "The ruin of many a poor boy" (and assorted other gender-based changes)
Great song, but all that power, regret, anger, and sadness would sure as hell make a lot more sense if you were sold into white sexual slavery instead of forced to, I don't know, play cards all the time.
#1. Hilary Duff Adds One Word to a Who Song and Earns a Special Place in Hell
Boy, it's been a long time since anyone said Hilary Duff sucks. Hating on Hilary Duff is so old school, like tooling on Ashlee Simpson or Britney Spears. But hey, I set about to find the worst lyrical changes in music history, and there's just no way not to put this as number one.
"My Generation" is the Who's signature song. But more than a rock 'n' roll classic, it is arguably the theme song for all nihilistic, rebellious youth. It is an anthem about being young and free and stupid. Live hard and leave a pretty corpse.
But if you're Hilary Duff and you suck, you might not want to approve such a negative, anti-authority message. That's fine. There's a solution for that. It's called DON'T DO A COVER OF "MY GENERATION." But sadly, she did, and ...
"I hope I die before I get old" BECAME "I hope I DON'T die before I get old"
Aside from spitting on the band she's covering by altering the intent of their lyrics 180 degrees, the word change also mixes horribly with the rest of the lyrics. Instead of being about a person who believes only youth can be trusted to live life to the fullest, she just seems to hate old people while still hoping to become one! Although, in Hilary's defense, singing a song about embracing short-sighted, selfish half measures probably does describe her generation pretty well.

Unlike Star Wars' Tatooine, Kepler-16b is cold, gaseous and not thought to harbor life, but its discovery demonstrates the diversity of planets in our galaxy. Previous research has hinted at the existence of circumbinary planets, but clear confirmation proved elusive. Kepler detected such a planet, known as Kepler-16b, by observing transits, where the brightness of a parent star dims from the planet crossing in front of it.
"This discovery confirms a new class of planetary systems that could harbor life," Kepler principal investigator William Borucki said. "Given that most stars in our galaxy are part of a binary system, this means the opportunities for life are much broader than if planets form only around single stars. This milestone discovery confirms a theory that scientists have had for decades but could not prove until now."
Scientists detected the new planet in the Kepler-16 system, a pair of orbiting stars that eclipse each other from our vantage point on Earth.
The gravitational tug on the stars, measured by changes in their eclipse times, was a good indicator of the mass of the third body. Only a very slight gravitational pull was detected, one that only could be caused by a small mass. The findings are described in a new study published Friday, Sept. 16, in the journal Science.
"Most of what we know about the sizes of stars comes from such eclipsing binary systems, and most of what we know about the size of planets comes from transits," said Doyle, who also is the lead author and a Kepler participating scientist. "Kepler-16 combines the best of both worlds, with stellar eclipses and planetary transits in one system."
"Working in film, we often are tasked with creating something never before seen," said visual effects supervisor John Knoll of Industrial Light & Magic, a division of Lucasfilm Ltd., in San Francisco. "However, more often than not, scientific discoveries prove to be more spectacular than anything we dare imagine. There is no doubt these discoveries influence and inspire storytellers. Their very existence serves as cause to dream bigger and open our minds to new possibilities beyond what we think we 'know.'"

Python for small businesses and startups
Why Python is perfect for startups
So you have a great business idea for a wonderful IT product or service, and you want to build your high tech startup around it. Having the idea is a great start, but you will have to build an IT solution/service to get your business off the ground; be it a website, software solution, social network, or mobile app. Which programming language to choose to write these IT products is always the question to get the startup going on a reasonable budget.
The truth is, you can write a great product in any language, if you know what you are doing. And when users are looking at a great product they really don't know which language was used to create it, or how much code it took, nor do they care. But when it comes to time and budgets, there are unique situations, like getting a startup off the ground, where the choice of a programming language can make a difference between success or failure.
Startup Specifics
How are startups different from other projects? Startups at the beginning of their journey are usually broke. Fifteen to twenty thousand dollars are budgets they often work with, but in the world of IT that may not be always realistic, unless you pick Python. The second standout feature is that startups don't have a lot of time on their hands to convince partners and investors in the potential of the project. Third, they have to start making the product work immediately in order to survive and make their first money. And, as you will learn next, startups are almost always complex undertakings, adding fuel to the fire.
Real Life Example
OpenERP, an open source enterprise resource planning software is written in Python. Because of the simplicity of the language, it helped drive the costs down and make the product attractive to small and medium startups. Modules are developed around editing Python files, which makes them easier, more flexible, and faster not only to develop but to use. Because of Python's succinct nature, the download size of OpenERP's distributive archived is only 6MB. As you can see, an irresistible product was created which soon gained popularity with many users.
Complex Projects
Typical startups like media streaming projects or social networks are almost always web-based, and the web is driven by big data, be it video streaming of horror flicks or social networks for dog whisperers. Python is the language to tackle complexity. It is also ideal for web solutions. Integrating two systems together would usually take a lot of effort, but the simplicity of Python's philosophy helps overcome this issue. This language is also a winner when it comes to scalability. For startups, it is important to catch the wave of success while it lasts and if you can grow the business as you please, it can spell out good things for years to come.
Proof of Concept and Working Prototypes
Python offers ready solutions for big projects. Sometimes it is easier to write something in Python and rewrite it later in another language, if necessary. This give the startups the most valuable gift they require: time. Often trying to make a startup work is like being stuck in limbo—you are heading to a really good place, but you are not there yet. So the faster the startup reaches the other end of the rainbow, the better. Python is a language that is great for writing prototypes. It doesn't require much time and the working prototype is already there, while other programming languages can take too long to do the same. Through a prototype, it is easy to see whether the business idea really works or not, and can really save the startup a lot of trouble further down the road.
Real Life Example
Dropbox, a famous file hosting service, was started by Drew Houston because he kept forgetting his USB memory stick as a student. He began the project for his personal needs but because the product was so good, others began using it. Dropbox is written in Python, so a prototype was created instantaneously, and soon funding was secured. In October 2011, Dropbox had 50 million registered users. In November 2012, the number of users reached 100 million.
Easy Code, Small Team
Python is an effortless language that allows programmers to write proof of concept 'with their eyes closed'. You don't have to gather a huge team of designers and developers to have a solid product on your hands. This gives startups a chance to try different ideas and see them work in action. A working prototype is something that can give them a great boost of confidence, and a passion to move forward, despite the exhaustion.
Real Life Example
Sometimes great projects begin when people are disillusioned with an old way of doing things. Similarly, Adrian Holovaty and Simon Willison were fed up with using PHP for building large websites, and became passionate about Python through a book Mark Pilgrim called Dive Into Python. Python tools for web development did not satisfy them either though, so they created their own, which later became the foundation for Django, a well-known free, open source web app framework that is easy-to-use and developer-friendly.
Easier Investments
When you have a working system, all you have to do is fix bugs later and get investment quickly. Startups are nothing without investors and their donations, so it is extremely important to show them what the product is all about. No matter how big a gap in the make you find or how loud the online buzz you create becomes, if you don't have the investors on your side, the project will stay where it's at. 80% of the time proof of concept is only used to convince investors and is not used further in business. So the less you spend, and the faster you get it, the better.
Real Life Example
Other very different, yet excellent products written in Python include BitTorrent, a peer-to-peer file sharing software; Cocos2d, an open source 2D game framework; Reddit, a social news and entertainment website; MyPaint, a free, open source raster editor for digital painters; MoinMoin, a wiki engine for creating public wikis (used by Ubuntu and Apache, among others); Mercurial, a cross platform, distributed revision control tool for software developers; and many others.
Read more in this summary of Jessica McKellar's presentation on Python in the enterprise.
Faster First Money
With startups, you have to get to the market and start making money quickly, otherwise the project may flop. Because Python is as fast as lightning, the profit return is faster if you also develop and support your startup in Python. The profit will also be bigger, because the initial spending was lower.
Good Support Team
Python was created and is driven by enthusiasts. Good custom support allows the product to be of stable high quality, and you know how detrimental even a small flaw or a crash can be. If you chose Python support, you will enjoy quick response rates, fast resolutions of technical issues, open mindedness and passion of professionals who are the biggest fans of their product.
Once I needed a consultation on PythonWin. I wrote to Mark Hammond, the creator of the PythonWin add-on, without much hope for an answer. To my surprise, it took Mark just a few hours to answer and his comments allowed me to realize interaction between C++ and Python with the help of COM. That's what they call democracy!
Why Python for Startups
Startups are the kinds of enterprises that have to strike while the iron is hot, because the competition is fierce and your moment to shine will not last forever. Python allows you to have a working, complex product in one or two months, with the help of a team of one or two people. You spend 15-20 K, and can get proof of concept or even a working prototype straight to investors to get the funds you need so desperately. You can start making money now and build the reputation of your business with the help of excellent support. Learning from the success of other startups that have gone global can also help you find the best solutions for your project.

For anyone interested in Python, I can recommend http://fullcirclemagazine.org/, a free online PDF magazine about Ubuntu, but includes a beginner Python course.
Great post Vadim, I especially like the real life examples.
Good post Vadim,
I'm also using Python (with Django) and I can confirm that one or two man team can put up a working product in under two months. Btw I was a Django beginner when I created Difio.
IMO any rapid prototyping language and framework are good for startups. Can you compare Python to Ruby for example and tell us why choose it, instead of something else?
More Python-fanboy hype. Any modern language can do the same.
As someone who has been programming in various languages for the last 20 years I can honestly say that I actually ENJOY using python and I don't get to use it anywhere near as often as I like.
This is an idiotic post, I would say the complete opposite holds true, look towards either node/jvm/rails/go when building for scalability
Scalability has nothing to do with language. Example Disqus which is built with Django. See their presentation here http://blog.disqus.com/post/1083759994/scaling-disqus (you have to search for the video of this talk b/c I can't find it right now).
I slightly take back what I say but this post is pretty generic and would be trivial to do for other languages, and scalability doesn't have to do with language? that is completely false, maturity, tooling and libraries all help with scalability, some newer languages lack all three

Yes python is just for small businesses. Don't expect that your business will upgrade to bigger business. It's impossible. :)
I totally disagree with your comment. Do you know Google makes use of Python more. Do you also know that Blogger is built singly with python? If the Google a global giant uses python more how then will you say "...Don't expect that your business will upgrade to bigger business. It's impossible".
That's not how you spell lightning.
Good catch; it's now corrected!
Nice article. I'm not a programmer, but I'm learning Python because it is a great tool to help enhance open source design software like Inkscape and Blender. Plus, it's fairly clear and logical and easy for somebody like me to use / learn.
"Modules are developed around editing Python files, which makes them easier, more flexible, and faster not only to develop but to use."
s/Python/x/ where x = { Perl, PHP, Ruby, etc }
I fail to see how this sentence helps support the idea that Python saves trouble.
Interesting ignorance on this thread :-) I code many languages and it always comes down to the right tool for the job. However, Python is a superior language for it's readability. Point blank. If you don't understand the critical significance of that simple principle, then god help the programmer who takes over your obfuscated code !

In December 2011, Randolph County accepted a $3,000 grant from HSUS that included a stipulation that the gas chamber be phased out as a means of killing pets in the county pound. More than two years later, however, Randolph has neglected to actually phase out the gas chamber. Johnston County, which also accepted a grant at the same time as Randolph, removed their gas chamber about a year ago.
When HSUS asked the county to either honor its commitment to phase out the barbaric killing machine or give back the grant money, pound officials chose to give back the grant.
Since 2011, twelve NC counties have ended the use of gas chambers to kill shelter pets. Twenty three states have passed laws against gas chamber killing.
There is no progressive sheltering agency of any scope or stature willing to philosophically embrace CO systems for euthanasia of any dog or cat. Humane sheltering is deliberately, inexorably, and philosophically moving away from mass killing as an acceptable method of dog and cat population control. ~Dr. Michael R. Moyer, V.M.D.
Animal advocates may contact MiMi Cooper, the official who oversees operations at the Randolph County pound, at firstname.lastname@example.com. Contact information for Randolph County commissioners, who could, if they wished, decide to mandate removal of the county's gas chamber, can be found here.

Random House The Well-Fed Backpacker
Great cookbook for the backpacker! I wouldn't use the term 'glamping' to describe our backpacking outings, however we do put a great deal of thought into our meals while on the trail. I have other books that mainly discuss the use of a dehydrator, this book is different. June Fleming discusses backpackers needs from top to bottom: nutrition, packing, cooking, camp setup. She discusses where to get certain ingredients and how to use them in conjunction. This book doesn't have a massive amount of… Full review

Simple backpacking food recipes — just add hot water! This way of camp cooking was new to me, having done little camping for years. Now I am gung-ho to give it a try after reading these simple recipes. I've taste-tested some and am eager to set up my meals for planned June camping/canoe trip! Did run into a few ingredients that are had to find...example: Lipton no longer makes tomato flavor cupa-soup.

Not so much a recipe book but rather a methods and skills focus. I have a number of outdoors oriented cooking guides. Some are mostly recipe books while some are more general and skill oriented. This book is very much skill oriented and geared towards how to dehydrate your own trail foods and how to find and utilize grocery store supplies suitable for backcountry use. I really like Cliff's writing style, although I can see how some would find it to be a tad bit goofy. In fact I bought a copy… Full review

(Reuters) - With financial markets on edge, White House officials and Republican leaders scrambled to reassure them that the United States will avert default and lift its $14.3 trillion borrowing limit before August 2.
Created by StevePro on Jul 25, 2011
Last updated: 08/01/11 at 11:13 AM
All congressional leaders agree to a compromise plan to lift the debt ceiling. President Obama announces the deal in a press conference.
Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid: "We're moving forward together."
Leaders struggle to work out a bipartisan deal that can pass both chambers. The House rejects Reid's original plan. Reid's revised plan is considered. White House enters intense negotiations with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell in a last-ditch bid to forge a bipartisan agreement to raise the federal debt limit.
Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.): "We're going to get a result on a bipartisan basis. That's what I'm working on."
House GOP leaders offer party members a reworked plan Friday morning designed to appeal to tea-party-allied conservatives. The plan passes 218 to 210, just above the 217 needed. The Senate votes to table the House bill.
Boehner lieutenants spend the day trying to coax undecided Republicans to support the leadership's position, but the vote is canceled late Thursday because the votes are not in place.
Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.), saying she would vote no a few hours before a vote was scheduled to take place: "I am committed to not raising the debt ceiling. . . . Despite John Boehner's best efforts, absolutely faithful efforts, to try to put a plan on the table, the problem goes back again to the president's failure of leadership."
All 53 members of the Senate Democratic caucus announce their opposition to the plan in a letter to Boehner.
Senate Democratic caucus: "A short-term extension like the one in your bill would put America at risk, along with every family and business in it. Your approach would force us once again to face the threat of default in five or six short months. Every day, another expert warns us that your short-term approach could be nearly as disastrous as a default and would lead to a downgrade in our credit rating."
The Boehner debt plan is scored by the Congressional Budget Office, revealing not $1.2 trillion in cuts but $850 billion. Within hours, Boehner rewrites the bill with $915 billion in cuts. But trouble among Republican ranks is brewing.
Republican Study Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio): "I am confident, as of this morning, that there were not 218 Republicans in support" of Boehner's proposal.
When President Obama and Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) speak to the nation tonight, I urge you to keep a few facts in mind. Many of these points I've made before, but you probably weren't paying attention then. So: Leave aside the politics, which has been plentiful. Leave aside the theater, which has been epic. Focus on what is at stake as the nation hurtles toward default like Thelma and Louise's car did off that cliff.
With financial markets growing edgy, Boehner says raising the debt ceiling and enacting fiscal reforms should be done in two stages. Geithner says it must be raised to last 18 months to keep 2012 campaigning from further threatening the U.S. credit rating.
After a brief meeting with Obama, Democratic and Republican leaders disagree over whether the debt limit can be lifted in one step or two. Obama wants to extend the borrowing authority through the 2012 election year.
Boehner breaks off talks with Obama over impasse on revenue increases. Boehner says agreed to $800 billion in increases but that Obama was seeking $400 billion more.
Obama and Boehner are reported to be discussing a $3 trillion deficit-cutting deal that upsets many Democrats for not including enough tax rises to offset spending cuts. Obama repeats some revenues will need to be part of any accord.
The White House signals Obama may accept a very short-term debt limit extension beyond August 2 to give a deficit cutting bill time to clear Congress. Obama meets separately with top Democratic and Republican lawmakers.
The "Gang of Six" resurfaces with a deficit reduction plan that proposes $3.75 trillion in savings over 10 years and contains $1.2 trillion in new revenues. Obama seizes on it and calls on Congress leaders to start "talking turkey."
Republicans push for a measure that would cut and cap government spending and require an amendment to the U.S. Constitution requiring a balanced budget. Obama says he will veto it should Congress send it to his desk.
McConnell and Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid work on a fallback plan to allow Obama to raise the debt limit. Obama meets Boehner and his deputy, Eric Cantor, secretly at White House but no progress is made toward a deal.
Ratings agency Standard & Poor's says there is a one-in-two chance it could cut the U.S. credit rating if talks remain stalemated. Obama suspends talks and gives party leaders 24-36 hours to deliver a deadlock-breaking "plan of action."
Moody's Investors Service puts United States on review for possible downgrade. Obama meets lawmakers for nearly two hours but a deal remains elusive.
Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell offers backup plan for raising the debt limit if there is no agreement on a broad deficit-reduction plan. Obama warns if the impasse is not resolved soon, government benefits for older Americans might be at risk after August 2.
Their follow-up meeting breaks little new ground, but Obama pressures both Democrats and Republicans to make concessions that would clear the way for a deal.
During a testy, brief meeting at the White House, Obama and congressional leaders agree on little more than the need to meet again the following day.
Boehner says grand bargain is out of reach because Republicans will not accept the tax increases Democrats are demanding. He calls for a more modest $2 trillion package that would rely mostly on spending cuts.
A dismal jobs report focuses new attention on the sputtering economy. Obama says uncertainty about the debt ceiling talks is hurting economic expansion.
After hosting lawmakers at White House, Obama says Republicans and Democrats are still far apart on many issues but that all agree on the need to raise the debt ceiling.
Obama invites top lawmakers to the White House to restart negotiations and clinch a deal by July 22.
Obama and Boehner meet secretly to discuss "grand bargain" that would save roughly $4 trillion over 10 years through a tax code overhaul and trims to benefit programs.
Democratic legislators discuss a scaled-back deal that would avert default but force Congress to tackle the debt ceiling issue again before the 2012 elections. The White House rejects the idea.
The International Monetary Fund says the United States must lift its debt limit soon to avoid a "severe shock" to global markets and a still-fragile economic recovery. Obama calls for new steps to spur job growth and tax hikes on the rich, irking Republicans who remain focused on deficit cuts.
Republicans declare an impasse in the Biden talks, saying Democrats are insisting on roughly $400 billion in new revenue by closing tax breaks for the wealthy and certain business sectors.
Some 34 Senate Republicans vote to repeal tax breaks for ethanol, a sign that there may be some wiggle room in the party's no-tax-increase stance.
In a sixth meeting of the Biden group, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner argues that tax increases need to be part of the equation, but Republicans remain unmoved.
The House of Representatives rejects a measure to raise the debt limit in a vote staged by Republicans to pressure Obama to agree to accompanying spending cuts. Senior Democrats decry the vote as a political stunt, although 82 Democratic lawmakers join Republicans in defeating the bill.
The "Gang of Six" talks falter as a leading conservative, Republican Senator Tom Coburn, drops out due to an impasse over healthcare.
The United States reaches its $14.3 trillion debt limit. The Treasury Department begins tapping other sources of money to cover the government's bills.
House Republicans release a spending outline for the coming fiscal year that has deep cuts in education, labor and health programs cherished by Democrats.
House Speaker John Boehner, the top Republican in Congress, says any increase in the debt ceiling must be matched by an equal amount of spending cuts. The Treasury Department estimates it needs at least $2 trillion to cover borrowing through the November 2012 elections.
Biden and negotiators from both parties hold their first meeting as top Republicans say there will likely be no broad agreement on tax reform and healthcare.
The House passes a budget that would cut spending by $6 trillion over 10 years, in part by scaling back medical care for the elderly and the poor.
After Obama's initial proposal is criticized as inadequate, the president lays out a new deficit-reduction plan that would save $4 trillion over 12 years. He proposes that Vice President Joe Biden lead deficit-reduction talks.
Obama and congressional leaders bring the government to the brink of a shutdown before they agree on a budget for the current fiscal year that cuts $38 billion from last year's levels. Billed as the largest domestic spending cut in U.S. history, it actually causes the government to spend $3.2 billion more in the short term.
The House passes a budget for the current fiscal year that would cut $61 billion from last year's levels. The Democratic-controlled Senate defeats it one month later.
Six Republican and Democratic senators, known as the "Gang of Six," begin talks on a long-term deficit-reduction deal they can present to their parties.
A report by a bipartisan deficit reduction panel commissioned by Obama advocates $3 trillion in spending cuts and $1 trillion in revenue increases -- mainly by closing loopholes in the tax code -- over 10 years.
Republicans win control of the House of Representatives on a promise to scale back government spending and tackle budget deficits that have hovered at their highest levels relative to the economy since World War Two.

Modern productions often exploit female sexuality as much as did Restoration actresses like Nell Gwynn. Olivia is often seen as obsessive in her pursuit of Cesario-Viola, but rarely to this degree. Many productions now imply Orsino's intense interest in his "page" (the cross-dressed Viola) is at least latently homosexual. Jack Belloli writes of modern revisionism's love of pushing situations to extremes via such effects as the male/female twinning in Twelfth Night:
"Shakespeare piercingly explores the embarrassment this brings. While disguised as Cesario, Viola cannot quite believe that Olivia, whom she is courting on behalf of Duke Orsino, has been "charm'd" by her superficial "outside" appearance. Many contemporary productions of the play have taken this embarrassment even further: the ambiguous nature of Antonio's wish to be "servant" to Viola's brother Sebastian has been exploited and, in 2002, the RSC's Olivia could not resist one last kiss from Viola even when revealed as a woman."

Sandra Fluke is the 31-year-old attorney who as a law student was publicly called a "slut" by Rush Limbaugh for demanding to testify before a House hearing on contraception. She has now been nominated as Person of the Year by Time magazine.
Recall that what got Limbaugh's and the right's ire up was that Fluke dared to argue that insurance coverage for birth control pills should be free for poor students. Limbaugh's response, as stated, was to loudly, lewdly, and for three days running, label Fluke a "slut" and a "prostitute."
Following Limbaugh's appellations, he faced immediate and severe public outcry (including from the president). Boycotts of his radio show and its sponsors took off -- with some notable successes.
Fluke's presence and stature as a women's rights advocate, on the other hand, soared into the stratosphere. Indeed, she later became an Obama surrogate and delivered a prime time speech at the Democratic National Convention. (See, attached video clip).
As might be expected, the announcement of her nomination has sent the right wing into a collective conniption fit, and the conservative media is having a field day damning not just Fluke's nomination, but the whole idea of the nomination ("Person of the Year") as well.
"Just when you think Time magazine can't make any more of a mockery of itself, they nominate Sandra Fluke, contraception advocate extraordinaire, as a candidate in their Person of the Year 2012 poll," wrote Ben Shapiro for Breitbart.com. "Leave it to Time to make her its Person of the Year. Of course, in the year of the dependent American voter, they might be right."
Or how about this from the conservative blog WND US?
"Fluke is apparently unable to figure out how to purchase low-cost birth control from places like Target, Walmart or her local pharmacy. Still, Time magazine felt she was qualified enough to include her with legitimate newsmakers and leaders who are significantly more deserving of the award and recognition."
It is important to note that Fluke's main detractors are, as usual, middle-aged, white males. And it's also worth noting that these guys are, to a man, vehemently opposed to not just free contraception for women but abortion as well.
The recent election helps explain why so many white males are so absolutely and unalterably opposed to abortion. The social critic and comedian Dick Gregory used to tell a joke that, "the one thing America will never run out of is white folks." November 6 showed that Gregory was probably more than a little premature. The fast-changing demographic statistics are now widely available and fairly well known, so I will not rehash them here -- except for one number. Yes, America is growing darker and darker with each passing day. 50,000 Hispanics turn 18 every month. That number represents not merely a "change" in the political, social, cultural, and economic face of America; but, in a real sense, it signals a slow-motion and bloodless re-conquest of America by it's original owners.
And, white males are reading the handwriting on the wall just as well, if not better than, anybody else. They are disappearing right before our eyes -- right before their own eyes. They understand better than most, therefore, that the practice of abortion and birth control by "their" women only serves to speed up the process of their diminution and...ultimate elimination from the body politic altogether.
Sandra Fluke thus represents and embodies many, but by no means all, of the primordial fears and insecurities of white male privilege and patriarchy. Understand that she is at least a third generation, completely 21st century, forward-looking "liberated" woman. She (and her generation) flatly refuse to "go back," as she put it at the Democratic Party Convention, to an age when women, like children, were seen but not heard. And so Fluke's Time Magazine nomination is for a great many white males another nail in their patriarchal and privileged coffin.

Returning to the Farm workshop helps farm families plan for farm succession
Returning to the Farm workshop helps farm families plan for farm succession
UW Center for Dairy Profitability, University of Wisconsin-River Falls, UW-Platteville and UW-Extension are offering two workshops to help farm families plan for a son, daughter or partner to return to the farm and eventually take over the farm business.
The four-day workshop will be offered on both the UW-River Falls and UW-Platteville campuses. The UW River Fall dates are Jan. 13 and 14 and Feb., 10 and 11; and the UW-Platteville dates are Jan. 20 and 21 and Feb., 17 and 18 at UW-Platteville
Families looking toward the future of their farming operations have many issues to consider. Two issues of extreme importance to the future life of the business are the development of a son, daughter, or partner to be the future manager of the business and the creation of a management succession plan. The Returning to the Farmworkshop helps families make these plans.
Returning to the Farm is open to all farm families who want to learn more about planning for farm succession. Families are expected to participate in both sessions. At the end of the February session, families will have completed the framework of a working succession plan.
Through this program, farm businesses will:
• Determine if an existing operation is large enough to support an additional partner.
• Uncover alternatives for the transfer of farm assets.
• Recognize personalities and learn to work with each individual's strengths.
• Write long- and short-term business and family goals.
• Learn how to address major issues that can lead to failure in a multiple generation farm business.
• Hear the current issues and information on the tax implications of farm transfer.
• Understand the tools of estate planning and business succession planning.
• Receive business succession and estate planning resources.
The registration fee for this four-day program is $300 per farming unit (up to four people per farm). This includes materials, meeting room costs, refreshment breaks and lunches. The registration deadline has been extended to Jan. 4, 2012. If you have more than four people in your farming unit attending the workshop, $80 will be charged for each additional participant.
For more information about the program or to register contact Joy Kirkpatrick, UW Center for Dairy Profitability Outreach Specialist at 608-263-3485 or by email firstname.lastname@example.com Or to download a brochure go tohttp://www.cdp.wisc.edu/Calendar.htm and scroll down to Returning to the Farm.

Toulouse is a city of contrasts with an exceptional heritage that offers the visitor plenty of pleasant surprises such as mansions from the Renaissance period which was the golden age of the town. The city also hosts an amazing blend of brick and stone buildings and a rich collection of museums built within historical monuments or on former industrial sites. From place to place, along streets and monuments, "la ville rose" meets history and reveals all its charms. At night, the city enlightens and Toulouse takes on a new face: the facades, the monuments and the river become the main characters of Toulouse's magical evenings.
Enjoying the Midi Toulousain means taking the time to live. Stroll through the bustling streets for a shopping trip, stroll through the market with its various flavours and colours or just linger at an outdoor café... Here, the atmosphere shows the personality of the southern people: authentic, friendly and popular. Toulouse also has a real knowledge when it comes to welcoming visitors and offering them good opportunities to gather around a table and to enjoy the local products (foie gras, fillet of duck, sausage, cassoulet of Toulouse, wines and cheeses...).

Join artist Micah Ganske and learn expert tips for painting portraits in acrylic. Whether you're new to the medium or a veteran painter, you'll build the skills to create compelling likenesses that tell a story about your subject. You'll start with the basics of choosing a photo, transferring the image to canvas and building a portrait with glazes. Ganske explains the many layers of acrylic in an intimate environment as he demonstrates how to build a painting from the underpainting to the finishing touches. With a crisp, over-the-shoulder view of Ganske's work, you'll gain thorough insight into how an accomplished painter moves and constructs an image.
Meet your instructor, Micah Ganske, and learn how to set up and get started.
Choose and apply your background paint, transfer your photo onto canvas, and sketch in the details you'll need before painting.
Ganske shows you how to create an underpainting with your acrylics, adding detail and defining various sections as you go.
Taking your work a step further, you'll mix and apply the midtones to your painting, resulting in a finished underpainting.
Your creativity will be sparked as you mix and apply colors to start the overpainting of your work, paying careful attention to laying in lights.
Ganske walks you through the process of building up your overpainting, laying in shadows and adding beautiful details.
Bring the background to life, continue to refine details and revisit areas to add complexity and dimension.
Put a polished glow on your painting as you add carefully placed highlights and opaque paint to add subtle changes to color and light.
"Love the format of the class. Being able to attend at my convenience (time and location) is great. Micah, hope you'll come up with some more classes!"

Burtons Grill is an upscale, casual restaurant that is part of a chain of 10 properties. What distinguishes Burtons from other chains is its commitment to the landscape of the local community.
Burtons Grill
Cuisine: Contemporary AmericanCategory: Neighborhood Favorite; Night OutLocation: 1875 U.S. Highway 17, Mount Pleasant Towne CentrePhone: 606-2590Hours: 11 a.m.-10 p.m. Monday-Saturday, 11 a.m.-9 p.m. SundayFood: 3Atmosphere: 3Price: $$-$$$$Vegetarian Options: Yes, dedicated vegetarian menu and gluten-free menuWheelchair Accessible: YesBar: Full-service bar; drink and beer specials, happy hour on MondayParking: Towne Centre lotOther: $5 burgers at the bar until 4 p.m.; children's menu. Daily lunch specials; herb garden; private dining room for 40 guests seated, 50 guests cocktails; PowerPoint capable, HDTV, Wi-Fi; "Loyal" club with points and perks; newsletter; events, outdoor seating; carry-out, URESERV, gift cards; Facebook, Twitter. Manager John Pauciello, email@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.com, burtonsgrill.com.
It was founded by three experienced restaurateurs, Kevin Harron, Kevin Rowell and Pat Gordon. For them it was sharing a vision: The restaurant had to meet their own desires and expectations. They wanted Burtons to be a haven for active, discerning adults with sophisticated palates interested in high-quality food and wine.
As president and cofounder, Harron, 2007 Massachusetts Restaurant Association's Man of the Year, says, "Our strategy is simple. We commit to serving only the freshest, highest-quality ingredients, to employ passionate, driven people and train them to deliver consistent, considerate service. We keep our prices affordable, our atmosphere comfortable, and we work diligently to make sure we're upholding our values."
For their Mount Pleasant location, they have tapped into local farms: Ambrose, Boone Hall, Rosebank and Thackeray. It means local fish and meat when possible. An herb garden is right outside the restaurant. And although a corporate culinary director calls the shots for the enterprise, chef Chase Barton can tailor his menu to local tastes. Barton is a Culinary Institute of America grad who comes to Mount Pleasant from Burtons Grill's Virginia Beach location. With advance notice, he is more than happy to work with guests to create a tailored menu for their special occasions and events.
For those who are gluten-intolerant, Burtons has designed a menu in partnership with the Gluten-Free Restaurant Awareness Program and Certified Gluten Free. Vegetarians will find pastas ($14.95) and risottos ($15.95) along with salads and seafood ($18.95-$24.95) that will not make them feel like outsiders at the table.
And for children, Burtons offers {B} Choosy, a menu in collaboration with ChooseMyPlate.gov ($6) where the young appetites at your table can choose among proteins, vegetables, grains, fruit and dairy. Portions are kid-friendly and can be prepared sauteed, baked and yes, fried.
The space
This is an attractive restaurant where dark woods and burgundy-upholstered booths create an oasis of calm and class in the landscape of lifestyle mall eateries. Exposed bricks, photos of Lowcountry images and candelabra-styled lighting ground the interior with a look that's says Charleston.
Servers at the time of our visit were attentive, well-informed about the menu, and from their enthusiasm, it was clear that sampling was very much a part of their training. There is quite a bit of management by "walking around" and a sense of camaraderie among servers, bussers and the host station.
The food
The appetizers are substantial and lend themselves to sharing. Goat cheese-stuffed zucchini ($7.95), risotto fritters of sausage and provolone ($9.95) and sauteed local shrimp ($10.95) are a few of the options.
We shared a lightly crusted order of spicy calamari ($11.95) that offered tender tentacles, the sweet heat of pickled jalapenos and a less than robust roasted pepper aioli. If there is a weakness in the appetizer menu, it is that it is too rich and more "small plate" than first course.
Salads ($6.95-$7.95) are well-composed, generous in size and can be topped with a protein ($5-$8).
The menu speaks to appetites large and small, so the dinner menu provides a full complement of sandwiches ($10.95-$13.95) as well as simply grilled seafood ($19.95-$23.95) with your choice of a seasonal vegetable and potato or herbed rice.
Freshness was served in the catch of the day with an order of mahi-mahi ($24.95) plated over risotto swirled with sweet kernels of corn, shrimp and sugar-snap peas. This still-life of edible pastels was finished with a lemon beurre blanc and snippets of chives. It was quite good.
Cooler weather gave an added appeal to braised short ribs ($23.95) served over a crisped onion-potato croquette with batons of carrots and a creamy horseradish sauce bearing witness to the comfort food nature of this dish. Its only shortcoming was the ribs being so lean that the usual fat melt was not present — a tender dish but a bit dry.
A neighboring table's order of a burger ($10.95) received their accolades.
Rio Bertolini's locally made mushroom ravioli are paired with medallions of chicken ($18.95) and butternut squash for a seasonal take on pasta and vegetables.
Steak lovers will appreciate aged beef ($28.95, $29.95), and seafood fans will find the market catch fish ($19.95-MP) can be grilled, "bronzed" (think Cajun seasonings) or fried.
Desserts are a short list of favored flavors: Key lime pie ($6.95), sorbet ($5.95), hot fudge sundae ($5.95) and a warm chocolate torte ($5.95) that married delicious to decadence.
Burtons' attention to detail comes at a price, but it is a fare worthy of your time and money. Quality ingredients, a trained staff and attention to detail are not served without a cost.

5 Common Responses to Awkwardness (That Make Things Worse)
Sometimes awkward situations just happen, like when your pants fall down, or a bridge you designed collapses, killing hundreds of people. It's kind of hard to lighten things up when you're taken by surprise like that.
But there's also a lot of awkward situations we anticipate, and have a little plan ready to defuse the tension. Unfortunately, a lot of those strategies end up making things even more awkward. Like ...
Letting Someone Else Go First
I'm not talking about holding doors open for people, which is its own nightmare of misunderstandings and mixed messages. I'm talking about situations like getting out of an elevator, where someone right up against the door should logically be the first person to get out (assuming it's everybody's floor). Instead, some polite folks, anticipating anarchy, step away from the door to hold the it open and let people out, which in a crowded elevator, makes the people they are backing into have to scramble to rearrange themselves.
A lot of times they're worried about awkward situations like the doors slamming on people getting out or closing before the next group has time to get in. Meanwhile, they've created an awkward situation as the people right behind them, ready to follow them out, halt confusedly while they watch this person rearrange themselves into the corner, and then try to figure out who should exit first in this new arrangement. Sure, it's just a few seconds, but you all could have just poured out like subway passengers and no one would have to spend any time feeling weird.
OK, I admit the subway is probably not the best place to go for examples of non-awkwardness.
And that's assuming there's only one chivalrous knight on the elevator. If two people have the same idea, they could end up in a brief "after you" standoff after everyone's exited.
Or sometimes you're about to turn onto a busy street (or cross one as a pedestrian), and you're just waiting for a gap in the cars when some nice driver slows down and waves you in. In many cases this is a nice thing, but in some situations it just makes everything worse. For example, if there's more than one lane going the same direction, and one guy in one lane tries to wave you in, while the drivers in the other lane don't give a shit and keep going. You can't turn until both lanes are stopped, so this nice driver is just holding up his entire lane and accomplishing nothing, and everyone behind him is now mad at him and you.
"Nobody else wants to stop!" you mouth at him silently, and he just keeps smiling and waving you in, like he doesn't see what the problem is. Man -- just go, dude. There will be a gap eventually, or maybe not, now that all the cars backed up behind you will be catching up where that gap was going to be.
Or how about stop signs, where some people disregard the fact there are clear rules about who goes first and consider it a chaotic Lord of the Flies situation where somebody has to take charge and they're willing to step up and start waving people through like they are the Stop Sign Lord. Confused drivers assume he will go first because he stopped first, but no, in his magnanimity he waves some random person through instead. This is not a complex situation that requires a level-headed leader to save the other drivers from chaos. You stop first, you go first. This is not hard to grasp. Oh, and blinking red traffic lights? Those are stop signs. Same rules. You're welcome.
Trying to "Include" the Shy Guy
Every "quiet person" knows that there are people out there that think this is a defect. If you're not talking very much at a party or gathering, something is obviously wrong with you. You must be mad, or a little slow, or intimidated by present company. Not talking much couldn't possibly be one of the many diverse personality traits people can have.
And there's no question that one silent person in a group of talkative people can make the situation a bit awkward. So some people's solution is to try to "include" them by making a joke about how quiet they are, which is probably the worst thing you could do to make them feel less awkward.
"Hey, you're not talking to anyone! HEY EVERYBODY SHE'S NOT TALKING TO ANYONE!"
Phrases like, "Jeff hasn't said a word!" or, "Oh, look, we're probably boring Jeff with our baseball talk. I bet he's not a baseball fan," or, "Jeff must think we're a bunch of crazy gossips, his ears are probably burning!" Or they might make a joke about how quiet the person is. If the group has been talking about their crazy drunken exploits, they might say winkingly, "I bet Jeff has some crazy stories. I bet he's a wild man at parties! He's got a secret side we don't know about! Ha ha ha!"
Moments later, tragedy struck.
Of course the quiet person, being a quiet person, is able to respond to these jokes awkwardly at best, so all you've done is put them on the spot and call attention to how quiet they've been all night to anyone who wasn't paying attention before.
Trying to include a person is a nice thing to do, but there are way more discreet ways to go about it than what is basically, "HEY, LOOK AT YOU, QUIET PERSON!" Just ask them some things about their job or pets or life in a low-key way and if there's anything they really seem interested in and connects to other people there, expand on it. Maybe treat them like a person who might have some regular interests, instead of like their quietness is the most important thing about them. Crazy, I know.
Checkout Stand Jokes
I'm a bad person, so every time someone has a "special problem" at the checkstand and holds up the line, I hate them. To be fair, some of these problems aren't their fault -- a barcode the system won't recognize, a coupon the staff wasn't trained how to process, having a stroke, etc. But whether they're stuck there because of an honest mistake or because they're trying to pay in antique pennies, there's a right way and a wrong way to deal with it.
"That's 15 quarters and ... is that a doubloon?"
First of all, if you're arguing about an expired or forged coupon, just give it up. You've been caught. Just be a gentleman about it and say, "Well played," to the cashier and tell him he is a formidable opponent, and then be on your way. If it's something you've really got to see to the bitter end, though, for God's sake do not try to lighten things up for the people in line by making an awful joke.
Do not tell the checker, "I guess it's free, then!" when you can't find a price tag. Do not make a joke about "computers these days" when your debit card keeps failing. Do not turn to the line and remark about kids and what can you do with them when you have to stop paying in order to have a talk with them about whether a Naruto pencil case counts as school supplies or whether they have to pay for it out of their allowance.
I think the kid should pay YOU for being allowed to bring that to school.
The people in line don't want to know that you are sorry for holding them up, they just want you to hurry up. It's natural to think that making jokes would help defuse tension, but in a situation where people kind of think it's your fault anyway, it makes it sound like you're not taking their annoyance seriously and trying to pass off your coupon-arguing delay as no big deal.
"Oh, I've forgotten my ticket! What an amusing adventure we'll have arguing about it!"
It also makes it seem like you're taking your sweet time. You'd probably be better off with no eye contact, grabbing things frantically and rushing, which at least gives the impression you're trying to fix things and get out of there as fast as possible, which is way more appeasing to an impatient shopper than a corny joke.
Finally, the checker has probably heard those same exact jokes about a hundred times and is liable to stab you with a pen. Now that would be awkward.

How should gun laws in this country be changed?
Laws don't prevent crime, they prosecute crime.If laws prevented crime our prisons would be empty, our drug problems wouldn't exist, instead we have record prison populations and a rampant drug problem. Of course we need the rule of law, but believing that laws cure society's problems is naive.
The gun grabbers use the shooting incidents to push for their goal of disarming the public, criminals will always obtain weapons to commit crime via the black market, gun control laws or not. The focus needs to be on the criminals, leave the honest law abiding gun owners alone.

The bushmaster was used to kill everyone except the killer, who took his own life with one of the 2 handguns he was carrying. The gun in the vehicle was a shotgun. The conspiracy theory has been thoroughly debunked. That was created by individuals who watched erroneous news reports early on. The CT State Police have addressed the erroneous information regarding no bushmaster and 4 handguns. Also the State Medical Examiner who performed autopsies said all victims perished from wounds created by a .223 caliber projectile.

The purpose of any law is to get people to obey them. So you can say the problem with any law is that it only affects the people who obey them. Duh! Following that logic means we should have no laws then, correct?

So we should just accept the slaughter of 20 1st graders as the price we pay for your "freedom"? That Bushmaster was a lawfully purchased and owned firearm until it was used to massacre 26 people. So then we can expect the NRA to be pushing their subsidiary political party ( Republican) to support funding and implementation of universal background checks for ALL gun purchases as well as funding more mental healthcare?
