Gavin Nowlan has emerged as the president-elect of the Arts and Science Students' Union, which caters to over 23,000 full-time undergraduate students and provides funding to about 40 course unions."During elections, everyone was there, all the course unions were involved. That's a big change from last year," said Nowlan, the union's current treasurer.Greater participation is the result of ASSU's attempt to rebuild itself after last spring's election, where former president Ryan Hayes, with the help of the union's CEO and another exec, manipulated election results to win over his opponent, Colum Grove-White.U of T admin stepped in, pulling the union's funding and forcing ASSU to hold another election. This time, Grove-White won."Coming in, there was so much to do. I wanted to start up all these committees to really get ASSU back on track," said Grove-White. He set up five committees examining the budget, constitution, sustainability, social venues, and donations and endorsement funding.The constitution committee, which will help to improve the union's transparency, is still working out a clear set of election guidelines, expected to be ratified in September."I think the biggest improvement this year has been communication," said Nowlan, who ran on a slate last year with Grove-White."Communication was difficult under the old executive. It was really hard to get funding for events, unless you were their political ally," said Gabe De Roche, co-president of the International Relations Society.Political advocacy no longer has a designated spot in ASSU's budget. That money has been funneled into course unions instead, almost doubling their funding. Now, student groups wanting money for a political cause outside the university have to present their case to a committee.But, De Roche said, ASSU's ambitions came at the cost of its focus. "This year, I think the union bit off a little more than it could chew," he said. "They had some great goals, but I think they should have put all their focus into the constitution to get that passed quickly."Nowlan will begin his presidency in May. "One of the things I plan to work on is getting more institutional support so we can improve the academic experience of students," he said.

Review: Spring Awakening
It's not typical for a big musical to leave the houselights up while an ingénue sings her way through the first number, but that's just one of many elements of the national tour production of Spring Awakening that makes this subdued cast all the more resonant. Focused on a small group of provincial German youth in the late 19th century, the production is an interesting study in both adolescent sexuality and a deconstruction of the American musical.Spring Awakening never bothers to cover its hand, embracing what might generally be left off-stage. This makes sense in a musical that centres on the often chaotic process of growing into your sexuality. Director Michael Mayer shows the wires by stationing the band in full view onstage, complete with a blackboard set list.Duncan Sheik's rock score strikes the perfect mix between angsty radio pop and the narrative transparency that makes a good showtune. Kevin Adams' gorgeous lighting added the perfect amount of spectacle to an otherwise minimal set. When the stage glows with gem-coloured lights during "Totally Fucked," it's thrilling.Yet the first act sagged a bit, as "My Junk" lacked the up-tempo energy that's required of such a joyful number. It felt sombre, particularly in contrast to the really grim songs, like "The Dark I Know Well," a haunting piece about abuse made particularly moving in the hands of Sarah Hunt (Marthe) and Steffi D. (Ilse)—who not only have stunning voices, but the ability to express the emotion of the often obscure lyrics.That being said, the least compelling aspect of Spring Awakening is the book and lyrics by Steven Sater, which stick with the formal language appropriate to the time period, but don't always commit to active communication between characters. It's only when the songs pick up that something gets said.Repression is one thing, but some of the performers can't find strong footing when it comes to the dialogue. The exception is a wonderful scene between Ben Moss (Ernst) and Andy Mientus (Hanschen) late in the second act (whew!) that offers a witty and intimate look into the musical's one gay relationship. The dialogue manages to show the beauty and danger of their romance, as they sing, "Oh, you're gonna bruise too/Oh, I'm gonna be your bruise." Dramatically, it's one of the show's most moving moments, shifting from the innocence of conversation to the moment when Wendla is handed off to a backroom abortionist from which (spoiler alert!) no good will come.The transitions are at their best between "Mama Who Bore Me (Reprise)" and a scene in Latin class that fully embraces the layering of time and place, having the boys set up their chairs for the next scene while the singing girls pass through them.In spite of a few expository gaps and a low-energy rendition of "Totally Fucked," the national tour production of Spring Awakening succeeds in providing a contemplative and emotionally charged interpretation of this unconventional musical. The sensational quality of the original Broadway production is muted here—these kids project a maturity that seeps through from their personalities—but that only adds to the bittersweet experience of springing from childhood into something a little more dissonant, but equally compelling.Directed by Michael Mayer.Starring Christy Altomare,Matt Doyle, Blake BashoffRating: VVVV—Naomi Skwarna
Tamils rally for decriminalization of Tigers
Last Monday, 120,000 people from Tamil communities across the GTA formed a seven-kilometre human chain to demand that Canada recognize the Tamil Tigers as a liberation group and a voice for Sri Lanka's embattled Tamil minority.A crowd of people gathered at Union Station in the afternoon to show strong support for the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, who are currently locked in a decades-long battle with Sri Lankan forces.Ramya Janandharan, the awareness coordinator for St. George campus's Tamil Students' Association, led a group of student demonstrators but was careful to say that she attended the protest to express her personal beliefs. The TSA has no official position for or against the LTTE, preferring to let its members choose for themselves."As a TSA we did not take a stance. But we believe the LTTE is the Tamil nation's only hope for lasting peace," she said.Kiruba Kulaveerasindum, a Toronto man who joined student demonstrators at U of T, called the Tamil Tigers "freedom fighters" and accused the Sri Lankan government of perpetrating genocide on its Tamil population."[The government] is not at war, they want to destroy the Tamil nation," he said.Demonstrators gathered signatures for a petition to have the LTTE taken off Canada's list of terrorist organizations. Janandharan told The Varsity that organizers plan to send copies of the petition to Prime Minister Harper and UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon. The LTTE have been banned as a criminal organization in Canada for three years.Last month, a former president of the Canadian Tamil Students' Association pled guilty in a U.S. court to facilitating a $900,000 weapons deal to supply the Tigers with guns and surface-to-air missile launchers.Former U of T student Sathajhan Sarachandran is awaiting sentencing along with former Waterloo student Suresh Sriskandarajah. Each faces a sentence of 25 years to life.

Gentleman Reg (Horseshoe, Thursday, 11 p.m.)
He's had a rough couple of years, but Gentleman Reg's CMW appearance was a declaration that not only is his career back on track, he's in better form than ever. While it's true that the local folkie rocks out harder than ever before on his new album, Jet Black, fans of his romantic ballads needn't worry, he hasn't gone hardcore. Emerging with a silk scarf thrown around his neck (used as a towel once the house lights started beating down), Gentleman Reg ripped through a selection of glossy rockers including "You Can't Get It Back" and "Coastline." He did so with a little help from his friends: The Bicycles' Dana Snell was a force on the drum kit, and Land of Talk singer Liz Powell rushed the stage for an impromptu backing vocal. The latest in a long line of rock 'n' roll comebacks, if things keep rolling for Gentleman Reg, at least we'll be able to say we knew him when.
Malajube (El Mocambo, Thursday, 1 a.m.)
Love the band, hate the fans—after all, it isn't often that a performer needs to tell the audience to shut up. Unfortunately, Malajube's legion of Quebeçois groupies thought it best to puncture the gaps between songs with soccer chants, and with lead singer Julien Mineau's mic mysteriously turned off through the set's first half, the audience didn't quite know when to stop. Malajube played much of their new album, Labyrinthes, a decidedly more subdued and sombre effort than their earlier work. While lead track "Porté Disparu" was performed with a riveting spookiness, the rest of the new songs blended into a rhythmless mush. Even peppy old stanbys "Casse-Cou" and "La Monogamie" got lost in the shuffle of new tracks. The show's one saving grace was an encore rendition Malajube's biggest hit, "Montréal -40º." But it wasn't enough to remedy a show that left the audience largely bewildered and disappointed.—SHOSHANA WASSERRating: VV
Katy Perry (Masonic Temple, Friday, 9:55 p.m.)
Two things distinguished Katy Perry from the rest of the CMW lineup—besides her obvious American citizenship, she provided one of the festival's few shows that could truly be described as a guilty pleasure. Within the opening synth beats of "Hot N Cold," Perry was masterfully working the stage, dancing in impressively high heels, and beaming contagiously at a capacity crowd of pop lovers and industry lowlives who packed the Masonic Temple. Her energy sagged noticeably when she broke out the acoustic guitar for her country-infused "Thinking of You," and even worse was "Ur So Gay," an absolutely painful Carly Simon-inspired sendoff to an ex-lover. Luckily, Perry was captivating with her upbeat numbers, particularly the show-closing "I Kissed A Girl." Before waltzing offstage, Perry danced with a six-foot inflatable tube of cherry Chapstick, then smooched an unwitting female in the front row. (And yeah, the girl definitely liked it.) —SWRating: VVVv
Teen Anger (Friday, Gladstone Hotel, 10 p.m.)
With the collapse of The Deadly Snakes, Toronto's Teen Anger want to revive garage rock the only way they know how—by kicking ass. While the band's set at the Gladstone's Eye Weekly showcase stalled due to a broken guitar string, leaving attendees awkwardly milling about, Teen Anger got back on board with smouldering tracks like "Carole Pope," "Homecoming Queen," and "Minimum Wage"—with the calling-all-graduates opening, "I make minimum wage, I'm always hoping for the best!" A slinky girl bass player complimented Teen Anger's adolescent fury, a melding of Richard Hell and the dirge-like aggression of Anagram. A band worthy of breakout status, see them now, and brag to your friends later. —CHANDLER LEVACK
Rating: VVVV The Ghost Is Dancing
(Silver Dollar, Friday, 2 a.m.)Everyone loves a love affair. The Ghost Is Dancing, yet another of Toronto's seven-person-don't-ya-love-hand-claps bands stole hearts with a late-night showcase at the grody Silver Dollar. With the forthcoming Battles On, new tracks like "This Thunder" and the orchestral-call-to-arms title track boasted a darker, synth-based sound than the band's poppier fare. And yet, "Wall Of Snow" and "Organ" had fans jumping, as the band (predictably) shed winter layers down to their skivvies. While haters may call the Ghost on overdramatic trumpet lines and aw-shucks crowd demeanour, one thing's for certain: it's the most jubilant live show in town. Plus, Jamie Matechuk without a shirt on? Swoon. —CLRating: VVVV
Bloc Party (Kool Haus, Saturday, 10 p.m.)
London post-punk turned electro-rockers Bloc Party headlined the weekend with a two-night stand at the Kool Haus, and were greeted Saturday evening with a lone bra that hit the stage before they even picked up their instruments. It was immediately clear—we were in for a sweaty night. While classic rave-ups "Banquet" and "Like Eating Glass" were delivered with precision, Bloc Party were a different band once they broke out the electro material off 2008's Intimacy. Singer Kele Okereke ditched his guitar in favour of a vocal effect pedal for "Mercury" and "Ares." Despite a few strange decisions (leaving out current single "One Month Off," not to mention my personal favourite, the ode to unrealized grade school romance "I Still Remember"), theirs was a party-starting performance that demanded a second encore. As he bid the Toronto crowd adieu with a moving rendition of "This Modern Love," Okereke thanked Owen Pallett of Final Fantasy for a wonderful tour of the city, and promised to return with album number four. —RDRating: VVVV
Cuff the Duke (Lee's Palace, Saturday, 12:45 a.m.)
Cuff the Duke were allocated one of the last time slots of CMW 2009, and they certainly ended the festival with a bang. Riding the success of their critically-acclaimed 2007 album Sidelines of the City, the band provided lengthy, wistful instrumentals on "Remember the Good Times" and "Long Road." Most memorable, though, was when the band invited all of the night's previous performers onstage with them for a rendition of "If I Live or If I Die." Assorted members of Elliott Brood and Basia Bulat's band harmonized with Cuff the Duke on violins, guitars, and vocals, as the Lee's Palace stage was transformed into a funky East Coast kitchen party. (Good thing everyone knew the lyrics.) Cuff the Duke also previewed several encouraging tracks from their upcoming album, including the tentatively titled "Good Day" and "Promises." If the rest of their new work turns out to be anything like their CMW concert, we definitely have some great music to look forward to. —SWRating: VVVVv
Iraq's Prolonged Occupation
The withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iraq was one of the most contentious issues of the 2008 presidential campaign. While Democrats insisted on a quick and phased removal of troops, Republicans like John McCain opted for a decidedly ambiguous "stay the course" approach which would leave U.S. forces in Iraq for "maybe 50, maybe 100 years."In a remarkable reversal that many members of the GOP are now hailing, President Obama has decided to withdraw all "combat forces" by August 2010, and remaining forces by December 2011. Prominent Democrats like House Speaker Nancy Pelosi have criticized the plan to leave 35,000 to 50,000 "residual troops" until the final withdrawal date. Disregarding the paradoxical positions taken by both parties, the plan seems ridden with loopholes.First, Article 27 of the Status of Forces Agreement negotiated by the Bush Administration in 2008 gives the United States leave to "take appropriate measures, in the event of any external or internal threat or aggression against Iraq." The ambiguity of this rhetoric is worrisome. After all, Iraq's Shiite majority is likely to form closer ties with Iran, a nation hostile to U.S. interests in the region. The government of Nouri Al-Maliki could easily be replaced by a less pro-Western administration that would formalize these ties. What constitutes "aggression" may thus be a point of contention, and the text of the SOF Agreement is distinctly vague about the nature of any American response. It might, for example, take the same form as the "appropriate measures" carried out in 2003 to protect the American people from the "imminent threat" of Iraq's non-existent stockpile of destructive weapons.Second, there does not appear to be any plan to scrap the $700 million monstrosity jokingly called an "embassy." The 104-acre complex in downtown Baghdad is about the size of Vatican City and heavily fortified even by the standards of the so-called "Green Zone." Its construction is permanent, and the United States will maintain a staff of more than 1,000 in addition to marine and security contingents. The price of sustaining such a large facility will cost the U.S. taxpayer a projected $1.2 billion a year, with funds paying for staff and maintenance as well as a cinema, swimming pool, and recreational centre. Construction contracts for the facility were awarded to "First Kuwaiti Trading and Contracting," a company notable for its unethical labour practices. In July 2007, a congressional sub-committee heard testimony from a medical technician working on the embassy. He claimed that the company had illegally employed foreign workers who had their passports confiscated while believing they were bound for Dubai to work on hotels. He described the working conditions at the construction site as "absurd," noting that many of the workers were "without shoes, gloves, or safety harnesses." Thus, Baghdad's costly fortress will remain indefinitely in a location central to Iraqi governance and infrastructure.But perhaps the biggest hole in the Obama withdrawal plan is that it makes no mention of the more than 100,000 private security guards working under State Department contracts in Iraq, a number likely to increase if troop withdrawal occurs on schedule. These personnel are not the benevolent, smiling security guards one sees at a shopping mall, but a vast mercenary army consisting of multiple firms, and completely immune to Iraqi law according to a report by the Congressional Research Service of the U.S. Congress.The Iraq War is often characterized as an "unmitigated familiar" or a "terrible strategic blunder," but just as the word "aggression" is highly subjective, so is the definition of success. For the Iraqi people, the war meant the destruction of their secular education system, more than a million refugees, and terrifying sectarian violence. For the American taxpayer, it meant an estimated bill of $3 trillion (though an accurate number is impossible to gauge) and more than 4,000 military casualties. For American firms, the invasion created a highly profitable enterprise; the titanic sum spent on the war did not simply disappear into a vacuum. Rather, much of it was transferred to private companies in a dramatic outsourcing funded by the U.S. taxpayer.The war's preamble was also a highly successful public relations exercise: one poll conducted in 2003 by the Washington Post found that nearly 70 per cent of Americans believed Saddam Hussein to be responsible for the 9/11 attacks. Another poll, conducted in late 2006, found that 90 per cent of American soldiers believed that the purpose of the U.S. mission in Iraq was "to retaliate for Saddam's role in the 9/11 attacks." These spurious pretexts for the war have long evaporated, but the occupation itself may be far from over.
Vigilante justice
Only at U of T could something start with Funstuff Colors and end with fines and transcript notices.On March 5, Leo Josephy and Lindsay Fischer mixed paint, dipped hands, and made literally hundreds of handprints around campus to promote EnviroFest. Shortly after, campus police received multiple complaints and spoke with the two.As of print time, a constable is working out repercussions with the college deans, who Josephy (of Victoria College) and Fischer (of Trinity) say aren't upset about their actions. Most of the prints dissolved a few days later from heavy rainfall. The two voluntarily went out to clean remnants off vertical surfaces.With publicly-funded buildings used privately for classes and public roads owned by the city, it's a headache to determine which jurisdictions could prosecute cross-campus vandalism. Adding to the confusion is our campus' public statues made out of donations or public funding and designated historic sites with their own vandalism codes. I'm not even going to get into the hassles of maintaining buildings sponsored by corporations.Someone in building management issued a fine for cleaning up the handprints. Not knowing where to issue it, UTSU received a bill, working with Josephy and Fisher to figure out a solution.Campus police told the accused that their acts constituted mischief and that they would've been handcuffed if they weren't students. The two say the constables they dealt with were honest, patient, and let them voice their thoughts. What concerns the two is the possibility of being put on conduct probation. Under section B, article three of the Code of Student Conduct, they could get anything from a warning to fines and a note on their transcript. They say they a received a positive response, including prospective students on tours who seemed interested in a much more lively, grassroots image of U of T. But the issue isn't the cops. When receiving a complaint, they investigate. The issue is what comes next.Josephy and Fischer seem to be the truest vigilante activists on our apathetic campus, short of the whining, quasi-violent "Fight Fees 14." Do they deserve fines? Transcript notices? The administrative hell of appealing said notices?Campus police didn't get back to The Varsity when asked for data on vandalism frequency, but I suspect it's not often reported. I also suspect none of the Governing Council candidates who chalked on private and public property had complaints or talks with police. The website of Reeves & Poole, maker of Funstuff Colors, says the non-toxic paint, made of pigment and chalk, is water-soluble. Just as bad as chalk; much better than unsustainable ink and paper pulp if you ask me.The two told me passersby dipped their hands in and made a few prints. We should've examined their fingerprints. I expect warrants for their arrest posted promptly.
The dream of an Egyptian resurgance
Having inherited the legacy of the Pharaohs, I marvel at Egypt's grandeur. With its rich history, natural resources, and dynamic culture, few can resist Egypt's allure. Although the visceral image of Egypt as a desert, littered with pyramids and inhabited by camels, no way represents Egypt today, the stereotype is likely a lot more palatable to Westerners than the truth. Egypt is actually about as Arab as it gets—and nevertheless, a beacon of culture, art, and science for Arab countries around it. From Umm Kulthum, one of the greatest voices of our time, to Nobel laureate Naguib Mahfouz, considered by many to be the greatest contemporary Arab writer of the 20th century, Egyptians have been the pride and glory of the Arab world since their heyday under Saladin.Alas, a stroll down modern Cairo evokes none that sense of pride. Still touted as the "Arab Superpower," Egypt remains underdeveloped and in desperate need of economic, political, and most importantly, social reform. The omnipresence of religion, along with a tradition of intransigence, result in endless social and political incongruities. The Egyptian constitution is replete with Caliphate-reminiscent laws that derive from religious texts, undermining the rights of minorities and women alike.The whole social problem started with poverty. Along with an ever-stratified and inefficient government bureaucracy, people have been obliged to exploit fault lines in the moral fabric of society, leading to corruption. The average middle-to-upper class Egyptian doles out enough bribes to government officials to land him a 10-year sentence in a Western country, yet such actions are overtly overlooked as social idiosyncrasies. I have also come across no less than three ranking officers who bragged that they could drop a murder charge, or have it reduced to a misdemeanour in a matter of hours—for a nominal fee of course. Needless to say, few can afford to pay for their services.To cope with everyday struggles (and there are many), Egyptians have developed a habit of blaming the government for any and all of the country's shortcomings. Specifically, they make the case that during Hosni Mubarak's 28-year, iron-fist reign as president, rampant corruption, unemployment, illiteracy, and a bedraggled education system have severely impaired the country's economic progress.They fail to note that, were it not for Mubarak's deals with the United States, Egypt would have drowned in foreign debt back in the early '90s. Moreover, he managed to preserve a precarious peace agreement with Israel for almost three decades. It was also Mubarak who quashed a very real threat from radical fundamentalists that plagued Egypt in the '80s and much of the '90s.There is no doubt that Mubarak's efforts to contain terrorism have come at the expense of civil liberties, as his government worked to silence dissidence. Nevertheless, he has given radicals and fundamentalists a reason to think twice before enacting subversive activities that disturb the country's delicate balance of secularism and piety.Some religious fanatics actually have the audacity to call Mubarak out on his undemocratic leadership, particularly the now-banned Muslim Brotherhood. If anything, the MB itself, which supposedly espouses the virtues of tolerance and democratic values, hopes to reinstate theocracy in Egypt by redrafting the constitution along sharia (Islamic law) lines. Alarmingly, they've gained a lot of ground.With hypocrites threatening to take over the country, no wonder Mubarak decided to come down on them. Contrary to their propaganda, which you hear in mosques all around the country, Mubarak bears no more responsibility for the country's moral failings than Egyptians themselves. As an example, consider a 2008 study conducted in Egyptian homes, which found that two-thirds of Egyptian men harass women, despite the fact that 80 per cent of them wear a veil. This is not a product of Mubarak's secular policies, but rather of the MB's own chauvinistic protocols.Yet with all this, Egypt remains alive and well. The resolve of its people, as witnessed by centuries of history, has allowed it to persist, and who knows? Maybe one day Egypt can reconcile its internal strife, and rise to its former glory. Why not? One can dream.
More than meets the eye
The Sandford Fleming building is an elegant piece of architecture, a quiet ornament on King's College Road. Next to its orange-lit big brother, Convocation Hall, it reflects a quiet grace.As I push through Sanford Fleming's heavy doors, I'm headed for the heart of the Computer Science Department, and expect to find muted hallways and rooms filled with machines I don't understand. I'm armed with a pocket protector, and I've tucked in my button-down shirt. I expect I'll fit right in.But three steps into Sandford Fleming are enough to point out my mistake. The place is a flurry of students and buzzing conversations. It's anything but dull.U of T's Department of Computer Science (DCS) was founded in 1964 and has become one of the top-ranked departments of its kind worldwide. From its humble beginnings as the first computer science department in Canada, it has paved the way for critical developments in the field, now home to 65 faculty, 300 graduate, and 800 undergraduate students. An impressive roster of research and faculty members includes some of the world's top researchers, as well as Canada's only Turing Award winner, Stephen Cook.Contrary to popular belief, the field of computer science isn't just about computers. It studies how computers interact with medicine, sciences, arts, and people. According to the Acting Chair of DCS, Sven Dickinson, "There's a misconception among many people that computer science is all about sitting in front of a box and writing programs, in solitude, typically. But in fact, it's much more than that. Computers have permeated every aspect of our lives, society, and professions."The computer science program encourages students to study the technological aspects of the field, but also helps them integrate their knowledge with other disciplines to explore new applications. The department has a strong interdisciplinary focus, not only bridging gaps between subfields of computer science, but also spanning to entirely different disciplines.The research scope of DCS is very broad, covering everything from graphics and numerical analysis to networking, human-computer interaction (HCI), and artificial intelligence. These research areas have important applications to finance, weather prediction, and medical imaging, which allows DCS faculty to collaborate with researchers in many other domains.Computer science intersects with disciplines like medicine, linguistics, psychology, neuroscience, and economics to tackle complex, real-world problems. According to Dickinson, getting to a solution requires a collective effort from many disciplines, including computer science. "Machines are making their way out into the world in almost every facet of life, and solving all these complex problems with these machines involves studying computer science and some other discipline. To do it right, I think you have to appreciate what those disciplines have to offer to the problem. And we're encouraging our students to be able to pursue these interests in these areas."The undergraduate program in computer science provides students with an understanding of fundamental computer science, as well as many opportunities to pursue research with faculty members or independently. As they progress through the program, students can explore different areas, and can enter specialist programs that combine computer science with economics, statistics, cognitive science, physics, or mathematics.Although enrolment dropped in recent years following the "dot-com bust," the numbers have started to creep back up again. "This drop in enrolment happened all across the continent," says Dickinson. "A lot of students felt that maybe there weren't a lot of jobs out there—which is an incorrect perception. In fact, there are more jobs out there right now than there ever were."Graduating with a degree in computer science opens up a variety of career options, with DCS graduates working in areas like IT, industry research, economic development, health sciences, game design, and health care. DCS also offers studies at the graduate level for those who wish to pursue a career in academic research."There isn't a single discipline out there that isn't being affected by computer science," says Dickinson. "We're interested in newer, faster, more reliable technology—smaller, more compact. We're interested in designing new languages. We're interested in making machines more efficient, distributing computation, and having machines work well with each other. These are extremely challenging, fascinating, fundamental problems in computer science. But we're so much more than that as well, in terms of taking these machines out into the world and solving problems that involve people."It moves beyond just the pure technology into how to use computers to affect positive change in the world, and make the world a better place."

These chicks aren't really all that crazy. After all, nowadays lots of cuties take half or even fully-naked selfies. Then again, it doesn't end there, because you'll see good-looking vids not only showing girls fingering themselves, but also giving blowjobs and even being fucked by ex-boyfriends. It sounds and is hot, but there's simply not enough here.Full review
These sexy Russians are amateur models who love to fuck and suck cock. Heck, some of them even fuck machines and toys instead! The production values are low and the design looks even more amateurish than the models' performances, but the action is still really hot and the footage is generally high in quality. Unfortunately, the website has stopped updating.Full review

You won't see anyone sticking a camera up a chick's skirt here, but you will get plenty of great shots of panties and pussies. None of these gals are filmed in secret. Instead, they lounge about and allow a guy to get some great footage under their skirts. Vids are streaming-only, but they look excellent and the site is a decent size so come and check it out.Full review
- Trial: $3.95/3 days
This sexy couple from Russia decided one day that the world should be in their bedroom, so they started filming themselves flashing and fucking and then posted it on their site. Watch the sexy Dasha finger her wet pussy in the woods and then suck off her man till he fills her mouth with his hot load. Then watch them fuck on their couch or go out dancing.Full review
- Limited Trial: $1.04/3 days
These Russian teens might look all innocent, but innocent, they are not. Would an innocent chick strip, fucked and maybe even lick some pussy, then take a load of cum on her face? If they would, then yes, these amateur babes are very innocent. On the downside, the site isn't updating, the streams are mediocre-quality and there isn't a lot content available.Full review
The sexy babes here are everyday gals who look great in action. These chicks are super horny and they just love to show off their tight bodies for you. You can catch them wearing skimpy outfits, stripping, bathing, taking themselves to orgasm, giving handjobs, sucking thick cocks and even fucking. You're going to fall in love with these hot amateur models.Full review

He's of Caribbean-Asian ancestry and she was born of Chinese parents and together this couple brings you hot interracial amateur action.

They haven't updated recently, though, and the site is small.Full review

The couple who lives next door could be filming themselves fucking right now. You never know, but you can check out this site to see if you recognize anyone.

Bohemia is the name of a region in the Czech Republic, but historically it was a collective name for the entire nation.

The amateurs on this site are hot, horny and ready to get fucked. They're featured in a good number of raunchy flicks that you're welcome to stream and download. Many come in an HD format, but none are exclusive.

The babes on this site aren't shy about giving others a peek up their skirts. Some of them spread their legs wide to flash their panties and then proceed to masturbate on camera. It's hot stuff and it unfolds in high-quality videos. If you enjoy getting peeks at panties and watching chicks get off you might want to think about getting yourself a membership.Full review

This amateur website has lots of hardcore videos (including some in HD) that will make you feel as if you're watching someone's personal life unfold before you.

This site is dedicated to amateur guys and hot chicks who got screwed over by their partners and decided to post their homemade sex tapes for some hardcore revenge. Some of the content comes from strangers who came across a porn tape and stole it for your pleasure. The variety of women and sex is nice, but the lack of updates and average quality disappoints.Full review

Some people argue that Czechoslovakian chicks do it best. After checking out this site, you might just be inclined to agree. That's because these babes are all brand new to the world of pornography, but even in spite of that they give some of the hottest blowjobs and ride cocks like seasoned pros. We're sure they'll go far in the industry, so check them out!Full review

This site gives you proof that amateur babes love getting naughty on camera. You can give its hot videos a look to see chicks with that gal-next-door charm getting naked, masturbating, sucking cocks and getting fucked. The vids are high in quality and there are lots of them, so you can feel good about visiting the website even though it has stopped updating.Full review
Watch home movies of everyday people having sex in groups of three. There are FFM and MMF threesomes to check out and the action is always hot and raunchy. A lot of the chicks hook up for some gal-on-gal action, but none of the dudes get together because they're far too busy stuffing girls with their cocks. As hot as it is the site's small and not updating.Full review

These cute chicks are just as horny as bunnies – if not more so. Some of them like to get drunk at parties and fuck in public, while others prefer a bedroom to show off their solo and/or hardcore skills. Some of them just want to lick pussy. Either way, The videos do make the site enticing. However, the lack of updates is one negative to consider as well.Full review
This site introduces you to French Canadians who are looking to break into the porn industry. You mostly get to meet girls, but there are some scenes where guys audition as well.

Horny amateur German couples make their own porno on this hot reality site. You wouldn't think they were amateurs judging by their wet and sloppy cock sucking and down and dirty action though. The videos and galleries are high in quality and update frequently and there are bonus sites to enjoy while you wait for new material, but the site is very small.Full review

This amateur site once offered people 20k to submit videos of their wildest orgies, birthday parties and bachelorette shindigs. It doesn't seem to be in business anymore though because it hasn't updated since 2012. They've left us with some fun movies, but not many of them, so the site just isn't worth joining, even with its handful of enticing bonus sites.Full review
German amateurs seem to know how to get down and dirty and even though the porn is amateur it doesn't mean the quality is low - much of the footage is in Full HD in fact. Updates are daily and this collection is already a pretty good size. Nothing is exclusive and you don't get any bonuses, but it's still a good site if you like your hardcore German porn.Full review
- $29.95/30 days
This hardcore amateur site focuses its attention on babes who aren't pornstars, but probably want to become one someday. Some of these chicks pose in front of the mirror and others suck cock and get fucked. It's all very hot and much of it is high in quality. But it's also nonexclusive and the price tag is a little high, so I can't really recommend this one.Full review
- Limited Trial: $1.00/3 days
Your cute next-door neighbor has been a very naughty babe and, luckily for us, there's video and photo evidence to prove it. This big site brings you lots of hot amateur content. The material isn't exclusive and it isn't all that high in quality, so the website does have some issues. One good thing about it, though, is that it seems to update pretty often.Full review
It may be their first time shooting porn, but they aren't new to having sex. The chicks on this good-quality website have all got some experience under their belts when it comes to sucking dick, riding hard cocks, getting covered in facials and creampies. They perform like pros in every scene, so it's a shame that this small collection is no longer growing.Full review

You'll find nothing but pure amateur porn here. There are masturbating hotties, chicks sucking long, hard schlongs and horny ladies getting laid every which way. They take it in their pussies and up their butts and many end up with dripping creampies between their thighs. The catch is that nothing is exclusive, it's all low in quality and they rotate content.Full review

OK, so these babes probably aren't the smartest gals on the block, but they certainly make up for their airhead personalities with their ability to fuck like pros. They take on lots of horny studs including a guy named Uncle Jesse, but the site has switched from not updating to rotating its collection, so there's even less content now than there used to be.Full review
Whatever the FB stands for, these hot chicks are definitely hot amateurs and obviously quite horny once there is a cock in the picture. They might play coy at first, but it doesn't take long for the camera and the hard cock to bring out their naughty side. And then it's all hot and wet and deep and hard from that point on. These sexy amateurs sure can fuck.Full review
Who needs Facebook and its anti-nudity rules? This social media site doesn't just embrace nudity, but also it encourages it! You can upload all your favorite homemade porn and naughty X-rated photographs to the website and should you be shy about who can see it, you can limit viewing to friends. There's already a ton to see, so go ahead and check it out.Full review

The ladies on this website aren't the type of babes you're going to see all over the Internet. They're amateur models and they've all got their own style and things that make them stand out.

I love the way that this hand has been contoured to look dead and diseased, the coloring around the fingers and the finger tips are also a great idea as it matches perfectly to the rest of the hand. I would like to use this for my final zombie character as i think it creates an outstanding effect and is also so simple.

A popular triathlon class at the University of Wisconsin-Madison has been caught in a financial transition, forcing the school to cut 29 physical education offerings.
The Wisconsin State Journal reports that students and trainers object to the cut, which would take place after the spring session.
"The triathlon class is a little different in that there's such a great bonding experience between so many of those students," said Tim Gattenby, who teaches adaptive fitness and personal training. "Either through the pain and suffering I put them through, or the way I teach the class."
The class typically has a waiting list of 30, and is part of the triathlon momentum in Madison. Faculty at UW includes some of the best competitors in the Midwest, including Thomas Brunold and Joe Kurian. In addition, the school has produced Olympian Gwen Jorgensen.
Looking to try something new in 2012, I fired up the laptop this morning to enter the Bell's Beer Iceman Cometh Challenge Race, from Kalsaska to Traverse City.
The Iceman also was trying something new, registration through USA Cycling, and the web site crashed just at the opening bell. They are "feverishly work (sic) on the problem."
"So many people were sitting on the site, waiting to hit register, that it blew up their site," said Steve Brown, Iceman's race director.
In testing, the site could handle 100,000 registrations in an hour. It seems that 4,000 in five minutes posed a problem.
Like my race strategy, I kept plugging away and completed the registration shortly after 11 a.m. I hope to finish the 29-mile race in less than the two hours it took to register.
Steve Clark, captured in this post biking to the start of the Birkebeiner, camped at the start line overnight, skied the race and biked 100 miles home, then endured a terrifying crash in his pick-up truck.
FasterSkier.com has the follow up on one of the more remarkable stories from the 2012 Birkebeiner.
First, the race.
Clark finished his 10th Birkebeiner, skiing freestyle, in 3:19:59. The 100-mile bike ride from his farm in Cushing took its toll on his race-day performance.
"The Birkie sort of is a culmination of the skiing season for me," Clark told FasterSkier's Alex Matthews. "You really want to have your best time, and the biking did seem like it would compromise the race, and it did. There's no doubt about it that I was pretty tired at the start line."
A flurry of record-breaking performances in the marathon fueled speculation about the prospects of a runner breaking the two-hour mark over 26.2 miles.
That's a wall that will not be broken in our lifetimes, according to running great Alberto Salazar.
In an interview with Here & Now's Alex Ashlock, the head of the Nike Oregon Project shared his view.
"I don't believe that in our lifetime, as the human body is right now, in the next 30 or 40 years, I don't see the marathon record going under two hours," Salazar said. "The marathon record on a course that's a loop course, where you're not going to get any sort of aid from a slight downhill like Boston or a wind on a good day like we had last year
"The world record is about 2:04. It was 2:08, 30, 40 years ago. Could it conceivably go another three or four minutes, possibly. But I think that training has evolved so much in the last 30 years. Whether it's going to continue to evolve at that pace to allow runners to run that much faster, I don't know. Possible, but I don't think in the near future, the next 20 years."
It's time to leap to beat a $20 price hike for the Summerfest Rock 'n Sole Half Marathon and $10 for the Quarter Marathon, scheduled for June 23.
Entry fees are $60 for the half and $40 for the quarter (6.55 miles) through Feb. 29. The price for the 5k will be $25 through April 31.
To lure repeat customers from the problematic inaugural Rock 'n Sole, organizers are offering a 20% discount and two extra tickets to Summerfest for 2011 participants. That deal is good through March 31st.
Chad Salmela, coach of the College of St. Scholastica Nordic Ski Team, probably explained it best: "It was a coupla 20-year-olds not thinking things through."
And he knew it moments after he spotted Joe Dubay, wearing a Saints uniform, coming up Main St. in Hayward and leading Norwegian skiing legend Vegard Ulvang and four-time national champion David Chamberlain. The 21-year-old college freshman beat both to the finish of the 54K classic race.
"Joe just won the Birkebeiner," Salmela thought, astonished. "There's a problem here."
Dubay wasn't registered to ski in the American Birkebeiner.
Taking a cue from Colombia, biking enthusiasts in Stevens Point organized a Cyclovia to open the city's streets for two-wheeled recreation late this year.
Similar events have been popular in Chicago and Madison, drawing thousands of bicyclists to cruise along roads typically filled with cars.
According to the news from Wisconsin Outdoor Fun, Trevor Roark has taken the lead in Stevens Point.
"Most wellness-based events are centered around competition," Roark said. "This is different -- however you want to get around, besides a car."
Along the route, there will be several activity stations, with games for kids, and activities such as yoga or Zumba for adults. Participants can start anytime from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. from any point in the loop, and they can stop whenever they want.
Tad Elliott and Holly Brooks interrupted their European pursuits to race the 39th American Birkebeiner, and scored great rewards for their air miles.
The former Olympians and U.S. Ski Team members won the men's and women's freestyle races in the Birkebeiner on Saturday, in nearly ideal conditions on the 50-kilometer course from Cable to Hayward.
Elliott, 23, became just the second American male to win the Birkebeiner in 22 years, and led a U.S. sweep on the podium, despite a strong international contingent on the start line. The unofficial winning time was 2:04:48, well off the record 1:56:06 Fabio Santus set when he beat Elliott two years ago.
The man who Elliott beat across the line on Saturday, Matthew Liebsch, of Plymouth, Minn., broke the European dominance in Hayward back in 2009 and helped Elliott to victory on Saturday.
He counseled the Team Salomon skier to hold back until the race hit the 34K mark, then tangled with Lars Flora and allowed Elliott to break free for a 10-kilometer solo ride to Hayward.
Tad Elliott and Holly Brooks interrupted their European pursuits to race the 39th American Birkebeiner and scored great rewards for their air miles.
The former Olympians won the men's and women's freestyle races in the Birkebeiner on Saturday, in nearly ideal conditions on the 50-kilometer course from Cable to Hayward.
They led a record field of nearly 9,300 skiers who were encouraged to "ski like Landgraf" at the start line in Cable. The message was delivered by Laurie Landgraf the widow of Dave Landgraf, who had skied in every Birkie before being killed in a bike crash in August.
Laurie Landgraf served as the honorary starter, and reminded the mass of enthusiasts to follow the spirit of her husband.
The Landgrafs' children, Cole and Emalea, shared their father's red founder's bib and led the initial wave of skiers into the woods.
Steve Clark is no hypocrite.
He preaches pedaling and rides his rhetoric.
In one of the more extreme examples, he strapped his skis onto his bike and pedaled more than 100 miles this week to the start line of the American Birkebeiner ski race in Cable.
I came upon Clark late Friday afternoon pedaling north on Highway 63, a few miles south of Cable and his destination, a camp spot in the woods somewhere near the start line.

My amazing contractor could do the work, but was not a designer...so the choosing was up to me! I quickly switched my blog-stalking focus to interior designers (hence my list of super creative fun reads in my blog roll!). I looked at every kitchen I could find, printing out my favorite pictures as I went.
Clearly there was a pattern of what I adored:
country living
house beautiful
Shaker style cabinets in espresso finish, blend of contemporary and modern design, stainless steel appliances.
My kitchen floor was in good shape (a new one wasn't in the budget), so I knew I was designing around white flooring. More pictures brought the realization that I like light colored counters partnered with dark cabinets. I also like the parallel lines the floor and counter made (all this self-discovery...it's like free therapy! See, it's good to spend all day on the internets!)
house beautiful
The other elements that I discovered I liked most in a kitchen were subway tile backsplashes (preferably in glass *swoon*), breakfast bars, an unexpected light fixture, and beautiful molding on the cabinets to make them feel truly built in.
elle decor
elle decor
tracy morris
house beautiful
And you may remember this post where I sang the praises of Erinn Valencich. This picture sealed the deal for me...it contained all of my favorite elements:
She was even so sweet as to answer my email regarding the color of the cabinets and info on the glass tile.
It certainly was nerve-racking making these decisions...I was panicked as to how it would turn out ($20 paint "oops" are a different story from granite countertop "oops"). Also, these designers most likely had generous budgets and access to countless materials...neither of which was my luxury!
So stay tuned....I'll be revealing my kitchen Before and Afters soon!!

CHAPTER 39 – Field and Dreams
It's the hour when the sun is high and your heels are blistered. The sky is cold, the trees providing no shelter as you continue to walk and search the horizon. Your legs ache and your vision is focusing, not on the task at hand, but on some hoped-for mirage in which the chair and a cold beer will magically appear. You're tired and cold, wishing only for the heat of a small fire to warm you from the inside out.
But someone else wants to go on. Those big brown eyes that look up at you are saying that it's pheasant season and they are not done hunting yet.
Actually, Barkley was not a hunting dog, he was just tagging along. His hunting skills are limited to socks and stray underwear. But we were out with friends on a good stretch of private land, as they hunted a few game birds for the freezer. He minds enough to keep back with me and not get in the way. Still, I hoped Barkley would pick up some pointers here, but the only pointer he tried to pick up was a little female who quickly rebuffed his interest.
We watched those dogs skirt and track, making J hook maneuvers that would make a fighter pilot proud even if he were a beginner. Barkley though, did do the occasional point, if only on a twig. Yes. Point. He did it first at about six months of age, pointing at a Baby Ruth wrapper on the ground. Then it was a ball cap dropped by someone, then a pigeon. I called the lady I got him from. She said, "
Labrador retrievers
don't point, that's just a puppy thing." Tell that to Barkley. He points
at birds, bacon and if company is over, to that pair of underwear I
accidentally dropped on the floor while putting laundry away.
Today, we were mostly out for a hike and the company of friends, the birds today being secondary. "What do you think, Barkley? A couple more miles?" He looked as if he genuinely understands my intent until there is that sound, the tiny whoosh of air being displaced by winged creatures with a brain the size of a pea and a breast that calls out for succor or bacon. Birds! Dogs! More Birds! Woof Woof Woof! "No Barkley, you're scaring off all of the birds, come back here!!"
My friends took it in good stride; this was just an outing, not a serious hunt. We'd walked for what seemed like ten miles, while the others fanned out up ahead with their dogs, leaving us junior birdmen to trail behind, watching for brass, looking out for wake turbulence. It's nice, being just a tiny group, the single monotony of our goal, striding forward, chests heaving, moving fast, the world suddenly coming to a stop with a small sign from a retriever.
It's that glorious moment in time where the motion of a wasted world of daily activities, of cell phones, meetings, and doing chores, comes down to that one moment of freedom and decision. That moment when the world accelerates and then just suddenly stops, there on the precipice, there in that space between a retriever, hunter and bird. A moment in a hunter's life, that evocative quality of living, in which the forward motion toward the game stops, but then loops back, toward you. A loop that completes the circle of predator and prey, waiting only for the curl of a dog's body, the curl of your finger, to close that circuit, and release it all with one sharp sound that breaks the line of containment.
Barkley is learning, and he for once, stood at attention when a bird was sensed, almost motionlessly, only the subtle tremble in his eyes, the despair of ever being released from the hold that's been placed on him, a responsibility he picked up willingly, if only for you. Yet, as much as he's trying, he might run on back to you, caught up at the moment, trying to please, it's a learning curve for both of you, but that free and loving heart is heavenly to see.
We may not get a bird today for our dinner table; Barkley is not trained for this, but we forgive each other, even as we make mistakes and learn. It is a bond between him and me. For me, it is not a substitute for something lacking in my life, but an outlet for the warmth I harbor in my soul, seeking a place for the waters of my emotion to go when all else is damned up. He's my confidant; he's my fashion critic (jeans and t-shirt again? Well, if you insist), he's a soft-hearted Kleenex if I cry.
He's given me renewed hope in the capacity of the heart, as his ability to love is boundless. He'll stay on alert, face aching with a grimacing growl, keeping predators at bay while I'm at work. He's been the soft nuzzle of concern on my neck after a coughing fit during a bad winter cold, and he welcomes the friends that I shoot with into the house while keeping those that wish to harm at bay.
Now, he was getting older, grey abundantly showing up in that black hair. Yet still, when woken by my soft snore from the office bed he'll move away from the heater, to my side as swift, as strong as ever, even as he slows. He looks at me with brown eyes more humorous and honest than anyone I know, soft paw on my arm, content simply to be by my side because I'm there. Like the rest of my friends, his needs are simple, his demands of me only warmth, faithfulness and time to go out and play.
He's taught me that money doesn't matter; he's as happy with a stick as an expensive toy; satisfied with a sleeping bag in a tent with me more than a luxurious pillow top mattress. Life is simple; someone to love and something cold to drink, well loved toys to play with and a safe place to sleep.
I know he will love the life that awaits us, one with less loneliness and more adventures, going where we go, with an open heart and a bigger family. For today, I think I will just give my four-legged best friend a little more time outdoors, maybe a bird for dinner if we're lucky. That's all we need, some open sky and something in the distance to seek, a bird or perhaps a dream. Perhaps, that's all any of us really need.
I give him one last little pat as we get up and move out toward a fading sun. His muscles rippling like silk under my hands, yet more precious than anything man-made. He races ahead, legs leaving the ground all at once, an outstretched leap toward his future, as if he had lost contact with the earth.

Michi Meko: Navigating this American Landscape
Openining reception June 11, 2010 6p-10:30p
Michi Meko is an accomplished Atlanta based artist presents the culmination of his multiple disciplinary art practices in recent years. Michi Meko Navigates this American landscape with instructions offered by his father and Uncle's-a constant awareness of surroundings a plethora of responses for each. With instructions in hand Meko leaves his native Alabama, with symbols from cotton to the confederate flags. Meko fuses these symbols to create a subversive cryptic language- that on surface is harmless, but scratch it and it reveals a history- a history that is unraveled through rituals and storytelling that qualify Meko to be elevated to Griot status. Meko assumes the orator role and passes this rich history in parables in the form of mixed media installations, sculptures, paintings, including a refined touch with spray-paint.
Meko uses a non linear history to create a mental space where traditional aesthetics do not apply. In this space the future of Blackness itself may be reversed. This unapologetic exhibition challenges the common conceptions of art. Meko's voice is steeped in history form Sun Ra to Adrian Piper to Fred Moten continuing the theories passed down from the Afro futurists. His exhibition conceptualizes the space that is necessary for post colonialism to exist, and suggests a future return to the original voice; a voice that responds to a visceral tribal heritage.
