If you have never seen her artworks, you have missed a lot. But we can help you to fill this gap – welcome this post dedicated to Daniela Uhlig, talented young CG artist from Berlin. The first thing that makes you surprised is the diversity of styles that are displayed in her works. Anime, Gothic, punk, pin-up, art nouveau – and it is not the whole list of the styles that are brilliantly presented in her output. She plays with these styles and in such a way creates the amazing pieces of art that feature the unique mood. The stunning creatures from her CG paintings are so detailed and amusing, that it is impossible to ignore them. One more thing that makes her works really incredible is a spice of humor that can be found in each of them. All her works dazzle with good humor, bright characters and genuine talent. Let's enter this spectacular multicolored world of Daniela Uhlig and her CG artworks.
Web design for the world
One of the joys of designing for the web is that your work has an immediate global audience. It's exciting to think that your designs can be seen as easily half way round the world as in your own home town. As well as being an exciting aspect of the web, this global reach also poses a challenge to designers. You need to be aware that different cultures view and consume the web in different ways.
You can overcome these cultural differences and build more accessible websites by considering a few important factors.
Killer content
Content is the most important element of any website. Your visitors may find elegant design pleasing to the eye, but what they are really interested in is the quality of the content and how useful it is to them.
Providing content which is well-written and relevant to your target audience will be a big help to ensure cross-cultural accessibility for your websites. Remember that 75% of the world's population do not speak English as their first language. It's likely that your content will need to be translated at some point. Developing good quality content from the outset will make for a smoother translation process. For example, try to avoid slang, colloquialisms and abbreviations. Metaphors may also have different meanings in different countries.
When using images, video and other visual content, always be culturally sensitive. For instance, photos of scantily dressed models may be perfectly acceptable in Western cultures, but may be highly offensive in other parts of the world.

Tilt-shift miniature faking is now the popular and fashionable method of making big objects look like tiny models. All you need to start is essentially a camera equipped with a tilt-shift lens which simulates a shallow depth of field. For this effect is usually achieved through creative technique in which a photographer manipulates the angle of a tilt-shift lens to distort the focus of a life-sized scene captured by the camera, thereby creating an illusive depth of field usually produced by macro lenses. Most faked tilt-shift photos are taken at quite good height to further imitate the effect of looking down on a miniature. In this post, we showcase a number of fantastic examples of tilt-shift photos. All examples are linked to their original sources and you're recommended to check out other amazing works of their authors.

The secret of the Asian beauty is hidden in its unsurpassed fleur that is so special and wonderful. This fleur is its important part that makes it stronger and gives the sharpened form.

When they go together, we perceive the beauty in all its fullness and fill our hearts with this fine feeling. The magnetic fleur of Asian beauty is brilliantly pictured in CG illustrations from this post. We hope that they will become a good source of inspiration and you will admire them.

The win displayed what was seemingly the perfect performance for Bill Carmody's Wildcats. The Wildcats shot 54.8% from the field, while posting 85 points on the scoreboard, and 45 of those points coming from beyond the arc on their 15 three-pointers. Most importantly, Northwestern completely controlled the tempo of the game, by out-shooting the Golden Eagles, 62-46. The Wildcats also out-rebounded Boston College by nine, and ten offensive rebounds.
It has been a season of inconsistencies, but Northwestern is finally playing to their capabilities. On offense, the 'Cats are setting up good looks, and making their open shots. On defense, they are playing with intensity, and are making necessary adjustments when those adjustments are required.
Dating back to the Wisconsin game, Bill Carmody has had to make some adjustments to his starting-five, and rotation. The loss of Jershon Cobb brought Mike Capocci to the starting lineup, and has given Alex Marcotullio, Davide Curletti and Nick Fruendt some meaningful minutes and a more significant role—something which neither player has seen consistently. When Capocci suffered a concussion prior to the Big Ten Tournament, Carmody had to make another adjustment, bringing Marcotullio to the shooting guard position.
The sophomore guard from Warren, Michigan has been a key role player throughout his two years with the Wildcats, but this is his first chance to make a consistent impact with consistent minutes, and Marcotullio has delivered.
Marcotullio has shined with his big chance, averaging 12.4 points per game in the past five games. In addition, he has been a pest at the top of the Wildcats' often-used 1-3-1 defense, which has given the guard 10 steals in the past five games.
But Marcotullio is making his biggest impact by just being on the court.
His presence brings that added scoring threat on offense, which opposing coaches must make note of. During the past five games, which Marcotullio has seen an increased roles, he has drained 13 three-pointers. In those games, the Wildcats have averaged 10.6 three-pointers per game.
It's no coincidence that in those five games, Northwestern has received a major boost in offense from their often-inconsistent starting-five. John Shurna is back to form with three-straight games with more than 20 points. Fellow forward Drew Crawford has also seen a recent boost in production, finishing with double-digit scoring in four of his last five games, while becoming a major weapon as a slasher.
Marcotullio is bringing Bill Carmody's 'Cats that added threat which makes their offense great instead of good. On defense, Marcotullio has brought a tough challenge to the opposition, posing as a tough defender, and a ball-hawk to watch out for.
Most importantly, the Wildcats are playing their best all-around basketball of the season at the right time. With two-straight wins in the NIT, Northwestern is looking to continue this historic season all the way to New York City.
With their recent adjustments to the rotation, the Wildcats are reaching their potential on offense and defense, and are quickly becoming a very tough team to beat.

President Obama: "There are responsibilities that all nations have, even in war"
In an interview today with Anderson Cooper, President Obama announced that he has ordered his national security team to collect all the facts in the Dasht-e-Leili massacre and apparent US cover-up---a move that Deputy Director Susannah Sirkin has praised in a statement earlier today.
Statement by Physicians for Human Rights in Response to Comments by Obama Administration Officials
Obama Administration officials stated Friday that they had no grounds to investigate the 2001 deaths of Taliban prisoners of war who allegedly were killed by U.S.-backed forces. In their statement, these officials claim that they lack legal grounds to probe these alleged war crimes because "only foreigners were involved and the alleged killings occurred in a foreign country."
War Crimes and the White House: The Bush Administration's Cover-Up of the Dasht-e-Leili Massacre
Physicians for Human Rights has issued a call for a criminal probe in the wake of a major New York Times story by James Risen with new evidence that the Bush Administration impeded at least three federal investigations into alleged war crimes in Afghanistan in 2002.
Bush Admin. Covered Up Afghan Massacre
The New York Times is reporting new evidence that the Bush Administration impeded at least three federal investigations into an alleged massacre of as many as 2,000 prisoners in Afghanistan. This major investigative piece, now available online and slated for the front page of the July 11 print edition, represents the culmination of nearly eight years of investigation by Physicians for Human Rights.

Pirq 1.5: Refreshed UI, more new features coming soon
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Lifestyle, App Updates, Reviews, Free Apps
We were able to get a look at the new Pirq app update, which is focused on bringing beauty to the free restaurant discount app. In addition to making the app look a bit more slick, Pirq also worked on bringing restaurant information directly into the app itself in a Yelp-like fashion, and finally, the company wanted to make it even easier to go through the process of finding a restaurant to eat at, to redeeming the free deal (no pre-printed coupons or pre-payments are needed, unlike apps like Groupon or LivingSocial.)
The tour of the app begins with the magazine philosophy. In order to get users to tap on a restaurant deal, a magazine approach is used. Big, polished, glossy images of delicious food, all from the restaurants. The app even pulls in featured menu items that are popular at the different restaurants. Read on for all the details.

Hands-on video shows off rumored next iPhone design and metal casing
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cell Phones, Design, Handhelds, Rumors, Videos
Video footage of the purported next-generation iPhone has surfaced today, courtesy of ETrade Supply, a reseller of parts. The video appears to confirm the new iPhone images we posted a couple of weeks ago, showing the two-tone rear metal casing of the next Apple smartphone, as well as a taller profile with larger display. Other changes that seem to be confirmed include the move of the headphone jack from the top of the device to the bottom, larger speakers, and a much smaller dock port. We also see that the SIM card tray in the new model is a bit smaller that the ones Apple has used in the past.

Meet the new Google Maps: 3D, offline maps, more StreetView
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Cell Phones, Corporate News, Google, Software, Videos
Google has announced a few nice updates to Google Maps that will be rolling out soon. For starters, expect offline maps to come to mobile Android and iOS devices. You'll be able to look up a map area in advance and select it to be made available offline. Maps will then indicate how much space it will take up on your device, and will download the content with your approval.
The second major feature is greatly-improved 3D maps. Thanks to planes shooting images at a 45 degree angle and from directly above, Google used stereophotogrammetry to combine the images to create 3D scenes. Google was able to demo this on an internal version of Google Earth for iPad, showing off the city of San Francisco in 3D.

Mitch Thomas
I've had a well rounded technical life. It all started with building an electric motor from scratch with my Dad. That led to a college degree in Electrical Engineering, and then my first true technology job working at IBM's Almaden Research Center. Then it was on to "real jobs" such as an instructor writing system administration manuals and teaching classes from them in far flung places like Tokyo, testing and developing internet advertising systems, building highly concurrent distributed key-value data storage and finally landing here at Tripwire where as a System Architect I enable teams to design and build security systems that make the online world a safer place.

Southern Vermont College student recognized for involvementMay 07,2013SVC student wins award
BENNINGTON Southern Vermont College student Hanifah Presley received the Engaged Student Award from the Vermont Campus Compact at the 2013 Engaged Campus Forum last month.
The campus compact is a consortium of Vermonts colleges and universities committed to civic engagement.
Presley, of Brooklyn, N.Y., received the award after a significant investment of time and energy in activities that promote and support engagement at Southern Vermont among her peers.
Since 2011, Presley has been active in MooseCorps, a community service club that provides service opportunities for the entire college community, worked many hours at One World Conservation Center in Bennington and sold Candy Grams to raise funds for the American Heart Association.
In a statement, Corie Steinke, the colleges residence director and civic engagement coordinator, said Presleys greatest strength is her willingness to communicate helpfully with other students.
As a community partner of Southern Vermont College, the Greater Bennington Interfaith Council was recognized as a finalist for the Engaged Community Partner Award, which recognizes the support of the Colleges civic mission.
Members of The Greater Bennington Interfaith Council worked with the colleges provost, Albert DeCiccio, and professors, Thomas Redden and Tracey Forest, and as guest lecturers for the course Comparative Religions.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER A pending deal between the state and federal governments will give a big boost to...

Getting out from under someone who is extremely heavy?
View Single Post
post #11
Join Date: Sep 2009

There are a few things you didn't mention that might add to this conversation...
#1 You said he's about 280lbs. How heavy are you? Because if he's 280lbs. and you are 130lbs., well...there isnt' a whole lot you can do unless you are a black belt and he's a blue belt or lower.
#2 What are your experience levels? If he's a 280lbs. purple belt and you are a 200lbs. white belt, then you're likely gonna be out of luck because not only does he have you severely outweighed he also has you by years of technique.
With all that being said I belong to a gym that's "fortunate" enough to have some big boys. We have a 260lbs. monster that has ungodly strength, a 340lbs. guy, and a 390lbs. guy who's strong as an ox. I'm 200lbs. and I get to roll with them a lot because to be honest the weight gap is huge and I'm about the closest in weight to these monsters. When I first started I used to have severe trouble...I would get stuck under them (mostly in side control) and I couldn't do anything except sit there pinned to the mat for a while and then tap out from not being able to breathe. After doing this for a while I've picked up a few things and it's not as bad anymore.
Just remember to always keep moving, never just lay there, and if you do need to rest for a second never do so on your back...always on your hips. Constantly try to move and push for space, and every inch they give you fight to create a scramble. If you can force scrambles you have to use speed to get out and get to a neutral position. Most big guys like that are going to move as little as possible so they will give you some time to work and push and squeeze trying to make space...never stop fighting to get out.
One thing I'll do a lot with the 260lbs. guy is let him get mount...the way he's built in particular is pretty top heavy. If I let him get to mount he's not near as stable as some others. Normally once he gets to mount I can buck and throw him off balance enough to reverse the position. If he's got a good mount that day and bucking isn't working I'll throw an arm up and give him an armbar on purpose (he's kinda slow on his armbars from his size) and when he changes up I roll and work the escape to the pass.
Maybe that will give you some stuff to work on, but I'm still interrested in hearing you size and skill level vs. his...

Sweet Kissesby Jessica Simpson
View All Available Formats & Editions
She's the opening act for Ricky Martin. She looks like Britney Spears, sounds like Christina Aguilera, and samples John Mellencamp in "I Think I'm in Love with You." One might think Jessica Simpson is having an identity crisis, but that's hardly the case. This 19-year-old has more spunk and vocal prowess than any spice girl (original and knock-off varieties included), and her single "I Wanna Love You Forever" -- a grown-up ballad from the newly released SWEET KISSES album -- is already a hit sensation. Simpson's sound is akin to that of the many Gen Ys who've hit the airwaves in recent months, but she sets herself apart from the rest of the teen pack with her R&B and gospel influences and her performing skills, learned on the Christian-music circuit that started her on the road to stardom at the age of 16. Simpson's conviction and experience comes through on the ballads -- "Sweet Kisses," "My Wonderful," "Your Faith in Me," and "Where You Are," a duet with boyfriend Nick Lachey of 98° fame -- as well as the uptempo "Final Heartbreak" and "Woman in Me" (featuring Destiny's Child). While some cuts tend toward familiar synthesized terrain, Simpson at her strongest seems destined to rise from cliched girl-power symbol to enduring diva status.

I kept on hearing so much good stuff about jessica, so i tried listening to her. When I did i couldnt keep the song on for more than a second. When i listen to her i feel like i wanna scream. Honestly, she is a good singer but her voice is just so... Preppy! Honestly try to find some good angelic singers
Wow!! Jessica has done a great job!I love I Wanna Love You Forever,I Think I'm In Love With You,and Where You Are.I think she's better than Christina Aguleria!
The new album will sweep the 02 Grammy's. A must have for any fan of the deity Jessica.
My sister interviewed her and she said she is really nice!I listened to her review and she sounds really cool! She's awesome! I love her! {Next to Jewel}
I think Jessica's music is an inspiration not only to kids but to older teens also, and she sets a very good example for younger and older people thru her faith in God and her sanity.
Jessica Simpson is the BOMB! So much better than Britney Spears! Great if you like cool pop songs with a lot of beat.
This is one of the best CD's I've ever listened to. I love the song, 'Where you are' performed by her nd her boyfriend Nick Lachey! She is awesome and I highely recommend getting his CD!
Jessica is a very talented singer and I think that she is totally 1000000% good:)
this cd is jessica's best album. jessica simpson has a full-octave voice that is so much better than Britney's nasaly voice. this cd has songs you can dance to and chill to. i love the duet with Destiny's Child, "I wanna love you forever," and "I think i'm in love with you".
Jessica Simpson is just as good(if not better) than the other singers, and has just as good songs. If you get the CD you'll have fun listening to the songs. :)
There's no doubt in anybody's mind that this girl has talent. However she needs to realize that she's not Mariah Carie. Her voice is incredibly unique if she would portray it that way. Brittany and Christina definately have some competition. She has incredible songs though. ''I think I'm in love with you'' is a favorite that will probably be enjoyed for a long time. What a sweet sound and an incredible combination for Jessica and Nick to do ''Where you are.'' Her first single was also a great hit! ''I wanna love you forever'' is many of her fans thoughts about this fascinating girl. There's no doubt in anybody's mind why she was immediately signed on. Keep up the good work girl, but with your own style! :0)
ok this cd is really really goood. Jessica Simpson has a great voice and her songs are awesome. i love every single one of them. i highly reccomend this cd. i listen to it like everyday and i don't get sick of her songs. She is awesome and i think the best pop star right now. buy this cd you don't know what your missing. ! !!!
Just listen to ''I Think I'm In Love With You'' with earphones and you will agree.
Jessica simpson is more than a britney spears and more than a christina agulera! Although christina agulera is a remarlable singer like jessica simpson and she is one of my favorite singers jessica simson can not just sing she can dance. Britney spears lip syncs alot but she has some serious moves and well almost all the boys in my class think shes hot. Me and my friends hated the outfit that she wore at the grammys!She has all the things you need to become a singer,a voice,moves,and a good relationship with her fans.
Jessica Simpson is a powerhouse! A five octive range makes for some incredibly high notes. Her wide variety of songs is jammed-packed with inspirational lyrics,positive music and positive messages beautifully demonstrates how you don't have to be over the top sexy to make awesome music, and have an amazing fan base.
jessica is definitely better than britney, chrisitina, and mandy. her voice is stronger and she is more experienced. i love her voice.
I think she is a really great singer. Jessica has the talent to make it to the top of the billboard charts. Plus, I really love the duet
Jessica Simpson is one of the Best New Artists out now. She has a wonderful voice. It doesnt have the nasal sound like several out now she is like a mariah carry and celine dion put in one
this cd is the best! i heard it at barnes and noble.com and i had to go buy it and every single song is good!
this is my favorite cd ever its so great
Hey Jessica, if you ever read these reviews, I just wanna say one thing, your cds are da bomb! I wish you lots of luck in the future making great cds like this one! ;)
This is a great CD, especially since it is a debut album. She has much more talent than Britney,and she uses it well. The songs just needed a little more variety.
i think this cd is really good. i like number 1,3,4,5,8,9, and 10.... i think 10 i dont have the cd with me now. i love number 3 and 9the best. number 8 is great too.
Jessica Simpson is the most talented new artist of the Millenium.

The Premier League has seen some stupendous goals this season.
Only last week, when Chelsea entertained Newcastle United, few expected Newcastle to come out on top; Chelsea had been in splendid form, whilst Newcastle had just received a drubbing at that hands of Wigan Athletic.
However, two stupendous goals from wünderstriker Papiss Demba Cisse meant it was all three points for Newcastle.
Here's recounting the top five goals in my opinion.

What are five similes and methapors in part three of the book?
1 Answer | Add Yours
SIMILES (comparisons that use the word "like" or "as.":
1) "[Montag] felt his head turn like a stone carving..."
2) "They rise like the midnight sun to sweat you in your bed!"
3) "There was a crash like the falling parts of a dream..."
4) "Their covers [the books'] torn off and spilled out like swan feathers."
5) "The books leapt and danced like roasted birds..."
METAPHORS (comparison that do not use the words "like" or "as"):
1) "Lights flicked on and house doors opened all down the street, to watch the carnival set up." (The scene in front of Montag's house is being compared to a carnival).
2) "I've hit the bull's eye." (Beatty is comparing his correct analysis of Montag's behavior to a marksmen hitting a target on the bull's-eye.).
3) "Now, Montag, you're a burden." (Montag is not actually a heavy load that must carried on one's back; he is being compared to a burden because he is a responsibility that must be dealt with.)
4) "And then he came to the parlor where the great idiot monster lay asleep..." [The characters who appear on the wall television are being compared to "idiot monsters."]
5) "The tents of the circus had slumped into charcoal and rubble and the show was well over." [Similar to the first metaphor example, the scene at Montag's house is being compared to a circus]

Marco Torres
Bun B celebrated his 38th birthday last night at the launch of Vice magazine's new music site, Noisey.com, at Austin warehouse district club Kiss & Fly.
The Trill O.G. brought along his Trillionaires band for a set that included a performance by DJ Lo Down Loretta Brown, AKA Miss Erykah Badu. The Dallas native treated the crowd with her soulful vocals by singing "Soldier" from 2008's New Amerykah Part One (4th World War), and wishing a happy birthday to the Houston rap legend.
Bun B, wearing a T-shirt in support of the earthquake victims in Japan, closed with the crowd favorite "International Players Anthem" and a cover of Morris Day & the Time's "The Bird" that had the fans doing the Harlem shuffle on the dance floor.

The transfer window closes in a week's time, but at Tottenham there is still plenty of work to do.
Spurs finally completed the drawn-out signing of Emmanuel Adebayor on Wednesday, but the Togolese international and Jermain Defoe are the only two experienced strikers in the squad.
Sebastien Bassong's departure for Norwich City and Michael Dawson's imminent exit for Queens Park Rangers also leaves Spurs with fewer senior central defenders than they would like—while the impending sale of Luka Modric to Real Madrid must also be offset with a replacement.
They could also do with a new goalkeeper who can take over the No.1 spot whenever the veteran Brad Friedel finally decides to hang up his gloves.
Here are six players that Spurs could do with signing between now and the summer transfer deadline next Friday.

'Business as Usual' in the Industrial Age: (Relatively) Lean, Green and Eco-Efficient?
Pierre Desrochers
University of Toronto - Department of Geography; PERC - Property and Environment Research Center
Karen Lam
York University - Osgoode Hall Law School
July 7, 2008
This paper discusses the creation of wealth from polluting waste in market economies before the birth of the modern environmental movement. The first section surveys some early English-language writings on the topic, with particular emphasis on books and monographs that have recently been made accessible online. The remainder of the essay describes historical cases of resource recovery that might be somewhat surprising to modern readers, illustrating in the process that economic profitability and pollution reduction have typically been far more compatible than is now believed.

Cadougan's big three almost didn't happen
There have been some big moments this season for the Marquette Golden Eagles.
One of the biggest came with 3 minutes 4 seconds to go in MU's 74-67 overtime win at No. 14 Connecticut on Thursday, when sophomore point guard Junior Cadougan stepped up and knocked down just his second three-pointer of the year -- and his career -- to bail the Golden Eagles out with the shot clock winding down.
It would be the Golden Eagles' last field goal until Darius Johnson-Odom's game-tying drive with 5.3 seconds remaining.
"That was a big play," coach Buzz Williams said afterward. "A big play. For him to have the guts to shoot it and for our guys to have the confidence to pitch it to him..."
Williams also divulged after the game that Cadougan might well have not even been available to play against the Huskies had things turned out a little differently following a mishap in practice earlier in the week.
Cadougan, who missed all but 12 games last year after rupturing his right Achilles' tendon, thought he suffered the exact same injury on Tuesday.
"Monday we practice for one hour, maybe the best practice we've had," Williams recounted. "Come to practice on Tuesday, we're live, and he drives. As he drives it, it looks like he steps on someone's foot. He just kind of drops the ball and he's limping. They take him to the training room and I just thought he turned his ankle.
"Go in there 10 minutes later they're talking Achilles', they called Dr. Gertel, (Cadougan's) in there crying. I'm like, "Achilles'? So we put him on crutches, put him in a boot, and literally (Thursday) at shootaround, that's the first time he did anything. But he was fine. I think it scared him more than it hurt him.
"It was just a strain. But it was just the fear of it, that kind of harkened him back to (last year)."
Considering how well Cadougan has played this season, first as a reserve and now as MU's starting point guard, his loss would have really affected Williams' rotation. The native of Toronto is averaging 2.8 points, 3.0 assists and 1.6 rebounds per game, and in 17 minutes at UConn had five points, three assists and a steal against one turnover.
Luckily for the third-year coach and the Golden Eagles, it was a potential disaster averted.
MU (17-11, 8-7 Big East) returns to the Bradley Center Sunday for a 3 p.m. tip against the Providence Friars (14-14, 3-12).

I first picked up a crochet hook in March of 2011. My friend had just had a beautiful baby girl named Megyn, and had named me the godmother. I was looking for something to fill my time as a stay-at-home-wife, and realized that not only could I find something constructive to do with my time, I could make my goddaughter beautiful things at the same time. My mother bought me my first hook, and my first skein of yarn, showed me the simple chain stitch-and after that I taught myself how to become a master-hooker. My first ever creation was a baby blanket for Megyn, and everything else just took off from there. I started making hats, headbands, and booties, and I was "hooked" lol! In the year since I started I have made a small business for myself selling my items and now, my patterns. I realized that I could not only sell my finished items, I could sell the patterns I made up to make those items!Read More » View all patterns by designer (35) »

The Human Rights Campaign released a report today to mark the first anniversary of Russian President Vladimir Putin's signing of his infamous ban on "gay propaganda" and related anti-LGBT legislation.

Yet despite the dangerous consequences of the increasing use of LGBT people as scapegoats — both in Russia and in neighboring Eastern European and Central Asian countries — and... MORE >
Flashback: When The Religious Right And Republicans Quashed An Investigation Into Right-Wing Extremism
SUBMITTED BY: Miranda Blue, Monday 06/09/2014, 2:56pm
Reports that the married couple who shot and killed two police officers, a bystander and themselves in Las Vegas this week were motivated by right-wing extremism have highlighted one of the more troubling trends in even the "mainstream" Right — denial that violent right-wing extremism even exists. As Brian mentioned earlier today, a conservative pundit's claim on the same day as the shooting that far-right violence is a "complete and total bogeyman" echoes the objections the attacks that many right-wing groups lobbed at a 2009 Department of Homeland...

After Complaining Women's Museum Will 'Indoctrinate' Visitors Into Feminism, CWA's Nance Demands To Chair Museum's Board
SUBMITTED BY: Miranda Blue, Thursday 05/08/2014, 2:02pm
The House voted 383-33 last night to move forward with a plan to build a National Women's History Museum on the Mall, despite an effort by Religious Right groups to prevent the museum from going forward. Now, we learn that Concerned Women for America's Penny Nance, the activist leading the fight against the museum, was offered a spot on its planning board but refused to participate unless an anti-feminist activist like herself was allowed to head the planning effort.

The case is Town of Greece v. Galloway.

Concerned Women For America Opposes National Women's History Museum, Angry Website Doesn't Mention CWA Founder
SUBMITTED BY: Brian Tashman, Monday 04/21/2014, 4:35pm
Mystified by growing support in Congress for the National Women's History Museum project, Concerned Women for America is now warning that the proposed museum will "indoctrinate those who visit the museum" into "leftist ideology." The group is especially peeved that the project's website doesn't include mentions of CWA founder Beverly LaHaye or Religious Right activists like Alveda King and Star Parker. While the idea of celebrating women is admirable, the content of such a museum would create a shrine to the leftist ideology and would not provide an... MORE >

Janice Shaw Crouse of Concerned Women for America knows the real reason why young voters are more likely to favor marriage equality and vote for Democratic candidates like President Obama, and it's apparently because they're just not smart enough to know better.
