Melissa- Good afternoon my friend. I don't think there is anything as amazing and beautiful as the wings of a butterfly. It is definitely on of natures best works.Robert Goodman 5/19/2008 9:15:14 PM
Hi Melissa,Beautiful butterfly.I don't think I've ever seen one that.Wonderful macro,great color!!!!! #5948421Melissa Olsen 5/20/2008 4:59:24 AM
Thank you Frank and Bobby and again my thanks to everyone who took the time to comment on this picture. Indeed I don't think there is anything prettier than the wings of a butterfly. It is a challenge to stand still long enough for them to land and wait for them to open their wings...I have as I am sure many of you have...held my breath so as not to create any motion. Totally hard! But when your lucky enough...you get what your eyes see...well almost. LOLJeana Clark 5/20/2008 6:05:25 AM

Fekkai Pomade Cristal Reviews
Good Product, Not for Everybody.
This product really worked for me... when I had short hair. It was originally given to me by a male friend who never used it much. I thought the scent was really nice - clean and sexy - but a little too harsh for me (I really like more masculine scents, but this was downright manly - I felt like I was wearing Speed-Stick on my head). I can only speak for myself as a gay woman, but I can't imagine ...read morea typical straight guy thinking this scent was pretty on a girl. Its a really unique texture - clearly the formulation of this stuff was more sophisticated than a simple wax. And when used sparingly on short hair, it is a real godsend. But on longer hair the piece-iness turns into greasiness. — 8 years, 11 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 3 people said helpful

The Best!
I love this pomade. It does the job and smells great, and rinses off my hands easily when I am finished.I use it to define the layers in my hair. Fekkai has many great products and this is on the top of my list. — 9 years, 2 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

I feel like Zac Efron belongs here somewhere. I spent more time laughing at his facial gestures in "Bet on it" than actually watching the MV.

I just knew that the DBSK boys would be here. LOL
Here's another gem of both Yunho and Changmin doing "Rising Sun," aka the song they tend to go cray cray with the facial expressions the most.

Platalea ajaja
Conservation status | Very common in parts of the southeast until the 1860s, spoonbills were virtually eliminated from the United States as a side-effect of the destruction of wader colonies by plume hunters. Began to re-colonize Texas and Florida early in 20th century. Still uncommon and local, vulnerable to degradation of feeding and nesting habitats. |
Family | Ibises and Spoonbills |
Habitat | Coastal marshes, lagoons, mudflats, mangrove keys. Forages in shallow water with muddy bottom, in both salt and fresh water, including tidal ponds, coastal lagoons, extensive inland marshes. Nests in colonies, in Florida mainly in red mangroves, farther west in willows or on coastal islands in low scrub, including mesquite and salt cedar. |
Forages by wading in shallow muddy water, sweeping bill from side to side with mandibles slightly open, detecting prey by feel. Sometimes picks up items that it has found by sight.
2-3, sometimes 1-5. White, spotted with brown. Incubation is by both sexes, 22-24 days. Young: Both parents feed young. Young clamber about near nest, may leave nest after 5-6 weeks, capable of strong flight at roughly 7-8 weeks.
Both parents feed young. Young clamber about near nest, may leave nest after 5-6 weeks, capable of strong flight at roughly 7-8 weeks.
Small fish, aquatic invertebrates. Diet is mostly small fish such as minnows and killifish, also shrimp, crayfish, crabs, aquatic insects (especially beetles), mollusks, slugs. Eats some plant material, including roots and stems of sedges.
Breeds mainly during winter in Florida, during spring in Texas. Nests in colonies. At beginning of breeding season, entire flock may suddenly fly up, for no apparent reason, and circle the area. In courtship, male and female first interact aggressively, later perch close together, present sticks to each other, cross and clasp bills. Nest site is in mangroves, tree, shrub, usually 5-15' above ground or water, sometimes on ground. Nest (built mostly by female, with material brought by male) a bulky platform of sticks, with deep hollow in center lined with twigs, leaves.

Cuban history, memories, and lingering class divisions come into sharp focus when Silvia Morini, after nearly 40 years in the United States, sets out to revisit the palatial home of her youth in Havana, Cuba. Accompanied by her son Guillermo, who was nine years old when the family fled Castro's revolution, Silvia finds the once-famous, ornate mansion still standing, but now converted into a government foreign exchange bank. As related in Stephen Olsson's revealing new documentary, Our House in Havana, the vivacious 68-year-old Silvia's nostalgia for an aristocratic, pre-Castro world inevitably rubs up against contemporary Cuban realities. This intimate, tragi-comic journey through pre- and post- revolutionary Cuba breaks through deep-seated barriers to reveal a refreshing glimmer of hope.
"La casa Italiana," the beautiful, Italianate, richly furnished former Morini family home epitomized the life of privilege led by Cuba's pre-revolutionary elite. Silvia's emotionally-charged memories of that life, recounted on the eve of her departure and again as she stands in front of the building that was her heritage, include neighbors and servants from the warm glow of earlier times. But Silvia finds La casa Italiana locked and confronts a guard who will not let her enter. And when she later encounters some of the family's former servants, their recollections and points of view evoke a reality profoundly at odds with the one to which she had steadfastly clung.
The Morini family home
With mounting disappointment, Silvia persists in looking for what remains of a lost world of high culture, debutante balls and yacht clubs. Against the backdrop of today's lively, but impoverished Cuba, Silvia wanders through Havana, encountering working-class Cubans of her own generation, still proud of the revolution's gains and fearful of its reversals, along with restive, younger Cubans seeking a future not frozen by the politics of the past. Though disconsolate over the past she lost, Silvia, warm-hearted and outgoing by nature, begins to rediscover the rich sights, sounds, tastes and people of Cuba, the building blocks of her own identity.
Back in the U.S., in the wake of her much-anticipated return trip, Silvia slides into isolation and deep depression. She struggles with the complicated emotions engendered by her bittersweet homecoming. Neither her nostalgic memories of a pre-Castro paradise, nor her historic intransigence toward revolutionary Cuba, can survive her experience intact. Silvia's depression lifts only when, against the odds, she undergoes a dramatic change of heart, reversing her decades-old "pro blockade" political stance. Finally, Silvia Morini, daughter of a sugar plantation owner, emerges as a social activist, lobbying Jesse Helms' office to end the U.S. blockade, and ultimately becoming, as she puts it, "more human."
To make Our House in Havana, Olsson and co-producer Carolyn Zaff agreed to follow Silvia without attempting to direct her movements or encounters. Through the use of compelling archival footage and Morini family photos and home movies, the filmmakers succeed at dramatically visualizing Silvia's personal life and cherished memories and set these against the powerful drama of the Cuban Revolution.
"Following Silvia was an intuitive decision…after three long distance phone calls, we took a deep breath and decided to make her our protagonist," says Olsson. "She was leaving a week later and she told us up front she wouldn't make any special concessions to the filmmakers. She welcomed us to join her, but what she wanted to see, after 40 years in exile, was paramount to her. It was certainly tough running after a subject and having so little control, but this approach took us inside Cuba and inside our character's heart, psyche and world view in a very personal way."

Does He Sound Angry?
Linford Haughton was angry. Yes, despite having one of the all time cool names - one which would absolutely keep me from getting angry, just by thinking about - he was angry. He put his thoughts to paper, named them "Darling, You Make Me Angry", and sent them in to the Sterling house of Song Poems. But I ask you, did Norm Burns - whose singing I adore, but still - express anything approaching anger in his reading of Mr. Haughton's outburst? I think not:
On the flip side, we have the sad tale of a man who has been left "Always Alone":

Eucherius of Lyon
Saint Eucherius of Lyon | |
Bishop of Lyon | |
Born | c. 380 |
Died | c. 449 |
Venerated in | Roman Catholicism |
Feast | 16 November |
Saint Eucherius, bishop of Lyon, (c. 380 – c. 449) was a high-born and high-ranking ecclesiastic in the Christian Church of Gaul. He is remembered for his letters advocating extreme self-abnegation. Henry Wace ranked him "except perhaps St. Irenaeus the most distinguished occupant of that see".[1]
On the death of his wife Gallia (born c. 390), as was a common 5th century practice, he withdrew for a time to the monastery of Lérins, founded by Saint Honoratus on the smaller of the two islands off Antibes, with his sons, Veranius and Salonius, to live a severely simple life of study and devote himself to the education of his sons. Soon afterward he withdrew further, to the neighbouring island of Lerona (now Sainte-Marguerite), where he devoted his time to study and mortification of the flesh. With the thought that he might join the anchorites in the deserts of the East, he consulted John Cassian, the famed hermit who had returned from the East to Marseille; Cassian dedicated the second set of his Collationes (Numbers 11-17) to Eucherius and Honoratus. These Conferences describe the daily lives of the hermits of the Egyptian Thebaid and discuss the important themes of grace, free will, and Scripture. It was at this time (c. 428) that Eucherius wrote his epistolary essay De laude Eremi ("In praise of the desert") addressed to Bishop Hilary of Arles.
Though imitating the ascetic lifestyle of the Egyptian hermits, Eucherius kept in touch with men renowned for learning and piety: John Cassian, Hilary of Arles, Saint Honoratus, later bishop of Arles, Claudianus Mamertus, Agroecius (who dedicated a book to him), Sidonius Apollinaris and his kinsman Valerian, to whom he wrote his Epistola paraenetica ad Valerianum cognatum, de contemptu mundi ("Epistle of exhortation to his kinsman Valerian, On the contempt of the world") an expression of the despair for the present and future of the world in its last throes shared by many educated men of Late Antiquity, with hope for a world to come: Erasmus thought so highly of its Latin style that he edited and published it at Basel (1520).
His Liber formularum spiritalis intelligentiae addressed to his son Veranius is a defence of the lawfulness of reading an allegorical sense in Scripture, bringing to bear the metaphors in Psalms and such phrases as "the hand of God." The term anagoge (ἀναγωγὴ) is employed for the application of Scripture to the heavenly Jerusalem to come, and there are other examples of what would become classic Medieval hermeneutics.
The fame of Eucherius was soon so widespread in southeastern Gaul that he was chosen bishop of Lyon. This was probably in 434; it is certain, at least that he attended the first Council of Orange (441) as Metropolitan of Lyon, and that he retained this dignity until his death. He was succeeded in the bishopric by his son Veranius, while his other son, Salonius, became Bishop of Geneva.
Among Eucherius' other letters are his Institutiones ad Salonium addressed to his other son. Many homilies and other writings have been attributed to Eucherius.

There are two important changes elsewhere in the criminal justice system which would help to reduce prison suicides. First, the Government must strongly encourage courts to reverse their rapidly increasing use of prison sentences and must reinstate the budget cuts which have reduced prison staffing and regimes. When prisons are severely overstretched, there is a greater risk that they will overlook potentially suicidal prisoners. Restricted regimes can also worsen the depression which drives prisoners to take their own lives.
Second, a breakdown of the 60 self-inflicted deaths in prison in 1995- 96 shows that 47 per cent had a known previous psychiatric history. An extension of psychiatric assessment services at police stations and courts, together with the improved range of hospital and community facilities needed to back them up, is needed to divert more mentally disturbed offenders into health and social care rather than overcrowded jails.

One hundred Tory MPs, including the party leader Iain Duncan Smith, are demanding access to any Government files and e-mails held on them after it emerged that civil servants have been routinely told to check their background while preparing answers to Parliamentary questions.
The move could cause mayhem within Whitehall as civil servants scramble to root out references to MPs dating back to 1997, when Labour came to power.
David Davis, the Conservative Party chairman, led the orchestrated campaign yesterday by writing to Sir Richard Wilson, the Cabinet Secretary, asking to see any references to him in faxes, files and e-mails to see if civil servants had been "politicised".
"I am asking for this information to ascertain how much the civil service has been politicised under Labour, and what information is kept about opponents of this Government," Mr Davis said.
Several Liberal Democrat MPs, including Matthew Taylor, the party's Treasury spokesman, have already applied for their files under the data protection act. They found that civil servants had been making derogatory and personal remarks about them in e-mails.
Steve Webb, the Liberal Democrat's Work and Pensions spokesman, is preparing to complain formally to the Information Commissioner, Elizabeth France, about the Government's failure to provide him with e-mail traffic within the Department of Work and Pensions.
Mr Webb believes references have been deliberately shredded. "I think they have been shredded. I think they have been deleting like mad. I think they have been trying to cover their tracks," he said.

I love getting stuff in the mail. I tend to shop via the internet because I just love packages or really anything that isn't a bill in my mailbox. I get a lot of junk mail, too, but every once in a while I'll find something a little special– like a $20 gift certificate from Palomino's because I somehow got on their mailing list. Score. Terry had gotten one before too, but we let it expire. Not this time! One Friday night, we discovered that Palomino is open late (kitchen til 11:30) and we grabbed a reservation and walked over.
Palomino has such a gorgeous view of the city. I've been there several times over the past ten years or so: I've worked for several people who used it as their restaurant of choice, and my mom liked to take me there for birthdays. Terry and I had never been, and though it's a chain, it's a small one, so I thought it was ripe for a review.
Did I mention that the view was gorgeous?
More, after the cut…
I started out with a mojito– theirs are pretty darn good. Not too sweet, not too tart, not too heavy with soda. They're not as good as The Quarter Bistro, but they're pretty darn good.
The waiter then brought a basket of their ciabatta and a tomato, olive, and feta compote that's a favorite of mine. The bread is fresh (they have wood-fired ovens) and the compote is fresh tasting as well. I could easily make a meal out of it (which probably wouldn't be a good thing). I believe they also use it in their bruschetta, so if you're tempted to order it, just wait for the bread basket.
As an appetizer, Terry wanted to try the portobello mushroom soup with sherry cream. It had just a hint of spice (from cayenne), and lots of caramelized onion and mushroom. The sherry cream was a great compliment– just a bit sweet, and the alcohol cut some of the creaminess of the soup. Very nice, and would be particularly nice on a cold day, watching ice skaters on Fountain Square.
For an entree, I chose the lobster ravioli. The serving is three gigantic ravoli made out of fresh saffron pasta. It is filled with lobster, scallops and tarrogon, covered in tomato sauce and lobster cream sauce and a bit of herbed marscapone. The dish was great, though the marscapone wasn't seasoned at all. Marscapone can be a bit tasteless– a bit like unsalted butter– so I salted it just a bit which made it perfect. Half of the entree was more than enough, and made for a great lunch the next day.
Terry chose the seafood alfredo. which was loaded with Parmesan, prawns and scallops. It was a very competent Alfredo, nothing outstanding, but the properly cooked seafood added to the quality. He'd order it again.
We skipped dessert since we were so full from dinner. Palomino's is a great place for a date if you want a beautiful view of Fountain Square and would be a nice place for a date. I hear they have a great happy hour too. If you get that $20 gift certificate in the mail– use it! You won't be disappointed.
My parents love going to Palomino's too.
Especially this time of year when you can eat and watch the skaters.
And its a chain, but its not like you can hit one at Kenwood, wheres the next closest one, Indy? So I don't mind these kind of chains at all.
5chw4r7z's last blog post..Allyn's Cafe
I *heart* the bread and compote! (I'm so food-nescient that I thought it was "bruschetta.") The bread basket and the mushroom soup make a great lunch!
Kasmira's last blog post..Collar Swap
Oh how I miss the mojitos!! The most popular drink here is Carlsburg beer…..not what I want as the weather turns cooler. Palomino's is definitely a place my hubby and I went to so often in Cincinnati that they staff started calling us the "Palomino junkies"
LOVE me some Palomino. It was my favorite happy hour in the city by far – discounted drinks and half price appetizers. The crab & artichoke dip is to die for. I'd go with two friends, get the dip, gorgonzola fries and whatever other appetizer we were feeling at the moment, and the three of us could do happy hour stuffed with a few drinks each for under $40. Best deal around.
Jen's last blog post..jrizzo: http://www.genderanalyzer.com/ says my vox, tumblr and twitter accounts are all written by men. I'm not very feminine.
Just went there this past weekend and ventured out of the norm – tried the smoked pork belly appetizer and it was delicious!
If you get a chance, try the Chop-Chop Salad at Palominos. It's the most amazing salad I have every eaten.
(Palominos was also where my boyfriend took me the first time we went out together; it holds a special place in my heart)

Poetry on the Rocks.
Trip Start
Sep 15, 2007
Trip End
Oct 17, 2007
Just before leaving Sydney I attended a book launch for a very good friend of mine, Nick Powell. Nick is a young Australian poet and whilst I am quiet a novice when it comes to the field of poetry I have enough awareness to know that he is a real talent. I had only seen him perform once before at his sister Sally's wedding last year, so I was very much looking forward to hearing him recite some of the poems from his book on that day. Once again I was set back on my heels. I have always enjoyed witnessing human beings when they are doing something of which they possess an obvious talent. Could be sports, musical performance, acting and in this case poetry. Well Nick is a special talent.
I was extremely happy to purchase one of his books that day and also to get it signed. I remember packing the book but had not opened it since arriving in Malta. Today for some reason Nick's book of poetry popped into my head so I put it in my carry bag and took it with me to the water front. Malta is one place where I would have the time to read and appreciate his poems, as well as give them the attention they require for me to decipher some of the stories! I had a great time reading Nick's poetry on the rocky bank of the Mediterranean, especially the one that made reference to Repton back home.
I also purchased 2 books whilst in Valletta this morning, one for learning the Maltese language and the second a Maltese - English (and vice verse) dictionary. I was hoping to increase my knowledge of the language as much as I could whilst I was still here and was looking forward to continuing that process when I got home, hopefully with the help of mum and dad.
Olga met me at the beach today so spending the afternoon with her was really nice. She taught me a few Russian words but with all the language learning going on in my head I am not sure how much I took in!
Spent the evening having a Maltese pizza in a caf� near my hotel before I settled in for a premier league football match between Tottenham and Aston Villa. I had one more full day in Sliema before I set off for Sicily, I was certainly going to savour tomorrow.

Your resume bio is boring me.
What makes one attorney bio better than another?
One place to look for answers is the Marque firm, based in Sydney, Australia. After reading one, you want to read them all.
Legal marketing consultant Jordan Furlong's recent article about the bios dissects what makes them so engaging. In addition to being "charming, insightful, engaging, funny and warm, not to mention extraordinarily well-written," they do the following:
• "they make you want to meet the lawyer"
• "they casually intersperse…concise, illuminating and fun stories that tell you about the person"
• "they are perfectly integrated within the firm's overall voice and brand"
But in my opinion, in addition to being all the above, the bios found on the Marque website include another special quality, one that is seldom seen. They're not resumes!
The Marque bios wrap all the dull resume stuff up and place it into downloadable PDFs whose links are off to the side. What an interesting idea. It places the focus of the reader's attention on other, presumably more important or memorable information about the attorney. If you really want to see a resume, it's there, but I wonder how often anyone does.
Ready for a new type of bio?
The majority of attorney bios are essentially, structured resumes coupled with dense, fact-packed paragraphs. Unfortunately, this format does not make for the most memorable of reads.
But are law firms ready for bios that lead with something other than their resumes? What about a bio that conveys warmth or perhaps some humor?
I suspect that we'll begin to see more law firms thinking about how their attorney bios can become more engaging. Hopefully, the Marque website bios will provide them with some inspiration. The Marque bios aren't perfect, but they include elements that are worthy of borrowing.

Hi Laura-
There is a crack in the cast iron sides of the fireplace which allowed some sparks through. The sparks ignited a bucket to the side of the fireplace on fire. It had inside some ancient starter logs and some crystal stuff, and it was the crystals that exploded. For a visual....

In need of some arms training critique....
In need of some arms training critique....
I have been a member here for a little while now. First & foremost I want to say Thank You for all of the great information on here. I have been training for the last 7 years off & on. On a steady regimen (Diet & training) for the last 4 months after about a year vacation.
Genetics has blessed me w/ extremely long arms in comparison to the rest of my body. I realize ahead of time that I have a long road ahead to pack mass on my arms. I wanted to throw up my Bi's,Tri's,& forearms workout on here to see if there is any changes I can make to help out the mass of my arms.
Note: I do each part on a different day as to not burn out one whole section of my body due to my job.BTW this is not my whole workout routine, just my arm excercises.
Preacher Curls 3x8
Hammer Curls 3x8
Reverse Curls 4x6
Cable Curls 4x6
Skull Crushers 3x8
French Curls 3x8
Cable Pulldowns 3x10
Dips 5x5
Std. Wrist Curls 4x10
Rev. Wrist Curls 4x10
Any positive suggestions are much appreciated - 06-05-2006, 05:19 PM
Well triceps looks good but i'd throw barbell curls into the mix for biceps, also try throwing little variations in their, for example when doing skull crushers i normally set the bench up 3 notches so i'm on a moderate incline this is the way Gustavo Badell does them and i find i really like them. Doing them that way really hits the lateral head nicely. Also try doing the french presses on a steep incline to get a nice stretch in the longhead these feel great. Also for biceps try incline hammer curls and incline zottman curls, for some variation. So ya everything looks good but like i said make sure to do some barbell curls, straight or ez curl bar. And i find arms thrive on variation.
Oh ya almost forgot for forearms try doing reverse wrist curls on a cable machine one arm at a time, the constant tension really pounds em nicely. -
Thanks, some variation may be the key. One thing that I noticed on my arms since starting this thread, My Bi's peak out decent but I am lacking in the "width" of them. Anything out there to focus on that area?
JMO, that's way too much work for your arms. 14 sets for biceps is overkill, you will overtrain them in no time. Reason being is that your biceps are also used on your Back day indirectly, and your triceps used on Chest day. I'd tone both down to 6-8 sets, go heavy as possible with good form, stay in the 6-10 reps range. good luck, I also have long arms

Kickbacks 3x10
Std. Wrist Curls 4x15-20
Rev. Wrist Curls 4x15-20
Do your Dips on Chest day at the end of your routine
Once again, just my preference, I'm sure others have different ideas.
edit: what's the rest of your routine look like? That's the other peice of the puzzle we need to help. - 06-05-2006, 05:41 PM
I hit my tri's with 4-5sets on chest day and bi's 4-5sets with Back. Bi's are especially small muscle so they don't need to be hit with 14 sets.
I here ya with the long arms bro I"m 6'2 and packing mass on is hard work but in time you'll get there. - 06-05-2006, 08:18 PM
I guess i'm the only one who does really high volume for arms, it works for me. If i were you i'd drop the hammers because reverse curls will pound forearms anyway and will also strengthen your wrists. Also preachers will really thicken up your biceps, do them one arm at a time with dumbbells. Also going to the other side of the preacher bench so your arms are hanging straight down and doing dumbbell or barbell curls using that side REALLY adds thickness to them. You could also drop pushdowns when training triceps, change between them and dips. I know i'm not the only one who trains high volume on arms though, ever seen Lee Priest or even Jay Cutler i believe on arms? THey just keep going and going. I just make sure that my rest periods are short and i keep my workouts short.

How do you guys feel about "21s"? I believe that is the name for them, it's an exercise that big Ron does where he curls the curling bar 7 reps lower range of motion, 7 reps upper range of motion, 7 reps full motion consecutively. I do these sometimes to mix it up and I like them. I get an amazing pump from them and quite a good burn.

Triple Drop Set = set 1 at 100% weight load to desired reps. immediately drop weight to ~60% (set 2), perform reps to failure, immediately drop weight again to ~50%, perform reps to failure (set 3). Do 2-3 sets like this and you'll be crying.
I do these on Leg Extensions and Leg Curls. (tonight was Legs). You get a super pump and really feel like you need to puke. - 06-06-2006, 12:48 AM

Heh, I'm familiar with ROM, damn computers wouldn't let me edit my post. But that sounds like a great idear Viper. I'll give it a shot.
I've never gotten much out of 21's, i think it would work better if you did heavy partials followed by lighter, full range of motion curls.
I feel everyone that has replied is right. You can't just stick with 1 certain plan example:
Standing EZ Bar Curls 3x6-10
Preacher Curls 3x8
Hammer Curls 3x8
Skull Crushers 3x8
Cable Pulldowns 3x10
Kickbacks 3x10
Std. Wrist Curls 4x15-20
Rev. Wrist Curls 4x15-20
This looks like some sissy plan from LF... AHHAHA jk jk viper this is really good lol (for an old man).... But seriously what I mean is you need to change it up all the time don't just walk into the gym on arm day and do the sameeee thing for a year.
There are about 100 different exercises to do just study up on all of them. Lift heavy for a few weeks, go high rep 15-30 a few weeks, super set, 21's, pyramid, negatives, slow up slow down, etc etc etc etc etc.......... Change it up is the key.
I do what jminis does and work Bis with back, and Tris with chest. It seems to be working for me but you have to figure out what is best for you no one can tell you that!! - 06-07-2006, 12:33 PM

I use x-reps in almost all my workouts, normally when i can't get full range of motion i go into partials in the most effect of area of the movement, this works quite well.

I hate to admit this, but after Tuesday's lame Wikipedia cop-out, I started to feel a little guilty. Surely I had much more to say about El Grito de Lares than that! Granted, I was really busy when I posted it, but some of goals for this blog are to find better sources that Wikipedia, because, as I mentioned, it's lame, as well as potentially sexual in some contexts if I got lazy and left of the "pedia" (can't help it, I think it's funny), and I also try to make this blog as personal as possible. Because in the end you could learn plenty about Puerto Rico through Wikipedia and other websites, but, aside from the fact that you have to know it exists to be able to look for it, simply reading an "unbiased" page (we know it's not but it certainly is more unbiased than mine) will not attach you to the subject. Not that I'm expecting anyone to become deeply enamored of Puerto Rico through reading this, especially since most people who are already know at least of Puerto Rico (again, you have to know it exists blah blah...). But for many of the things I talk about here, I've had very strong personal experience with, some of them quite emotional. My poor attempts at conveying them, since I'm going for honesty here, are not going to convert anyone to Puerto Ricanism, but ideally I'd want the personalness of this blog to inspire a space where people discuss their own experiences as well. That said...
El Grito de Lares is an ambiguous holiday, hard to understand for those not growing up with it. For one, the word "holiday" implies some kind of celebration and fun-filled festivities, which don't really exist in relation to el Grito de Lares (except for maybe in the town of Lares, but that's another story). It's akin to holidays like Memorial Day, observed but not necessarily a "happy" occasion. It also is equivalent to an independence day without, of course, actually being an independence day. The purpose is the same though: a sense of pride for the struggle for independence. However this was a failed effort, so the significance changes. Rather than being a celebration of failure (as I'm sure a couple of you guessed), however, it's a sort of nostalgic look back at what could have been.
That's the funny thing about El Grito... even though it's very essence is political, it's been absorbed into the culture without that. While it can be interpreted politically, and used as a political symbol, and it is very often, it doesn't have to be. Anyone and everyone references and seems to respect it, no matter what party.
It's this attitude that generally explains Puerto Ricans' view towards independence. Now, before anyone misinterprets that, let me explain. Independentistas are undoubtedly a minority, many people vehemently hate the party, and there exists plenty of fear about the idea itself (Would an independent Puerto Rico be able to support itself? Would it turn into a state like Cuba overnight? I know it sounds unlikely, but people legitimately voice that fear every day). To say independence is unpopular would be a huge understatement.
But poll numbers cannot represent an ideology, it being a complicated and ever-changing creature. Remember that the first half (give or take a few decades) of the 20th century was almost entirely devoted to the independence movement. The American (or FBI), as well as Puerto Rican (Luis Muñoz Marín), efforts were very successful at diminishing the movement's power, but completely erasing it was impossible. It still lingers even in the most passionate estadistas. Few people deny the vast cultural gap between the states and PR; the Americans will always be separate, the other, even while the island absorbs everything they produce. There is still some affiliation with them, and even some patriotism, but it is often followed by expressions of disrespect. It's a bit too complicated for this post at the moment, but I go into the contradictions of it a little at the end of this post. Needless to say, Puerto Ricans proudly affirm and jealously maintain their own identities separate from America.
Thus it would be fair to say that despite whatever party is currently in office and despite any and all plebescites, Puerto Rico has independence at its core. In a year Puerto Rico could become the 51st state, and independence would still be present as a concept. Unless Puerto Rico undergoes a drastic and deliberate homogeneization process to assimilate with the United States, it will always be its own being. Independence is no longer the result of an election (in today's Puerto Rico, anyways)--it is a value. Hence El Grito de Lares will survive as a manifestation of that crucial and impenetrable value.
For more thoughts on Puerto Rico's attempts to stay separate culturally from the United States, read this essay. I also go a little more into history here, including some about the independence movement.

El Grito de Lares, Part 2

As I read this, I was thinking about my own research, how Puerto Ricans write each other into history. How we write what happens to us, what we do to each other in history. It compels me. Conversations about these radical acts with family, it always goes back to Cuba or Haiti, then again, Cuba has more water per person than Puerto Rico, so what would that mean?

Puerto Ricans, whether they are called Independents (independentistas), Patriots or Nationalists or Freemen, who desire to be free, must always know that the federal government, here in the States has no "subject matter jurisdiction" over the person, case or location and should be challenged to proof it. These are magic words to learn when in Federal Court for desiring freedom for your/our Country.
You won't be told this in court but: All jury members, judges, attorneys, and employees working in federal court, must reside in federal territory to legally be a federal juror or touch your case or they can be commercially sued, disbarred and financially ruined for violating your constitutional rights etc.
Your God given right to be free is not wanted by the USA, it will oppose your desire for independence and freedom, because the Federal USA is a profit based Corporation.
The Federal Government is a District of Columbia "Corporation", as are all the States of the USA. What you know of as the USA, is NOT a Republic, but a multi-based Corporation acting as a Country. These Corporations were formed for the benefit of the real owners. Since June of 1933, everything since then, is under Contract law or commercial law, aka Admiralty law, to benefit your masters in power.
The Federal Government owns Puerto Rico as an ASSET, because it is a slave colony—whether you like the idea or not. But the Federal Government takes orders from those who own and run this (Corporation) Country, but are not of this country. The International Bankers, who really own the corporations called the USA and also the Federal Reserve, will let the slaves of PR be free, only if enough real men of Boricua blood wish to be free, by reserving their rights under the Constitution. Their books will be adjusted and we will be free.
The answer to your freedom lies in your Constitutional rights --- To win --You must always reserve your constitutional, commercial rights and know what they are and how to do so.
A Puerto Rican without a desire for independence and/or freedom from alien control has no heart and soul of a man.
The fact that the public does not know that we are NOT free, makes no difference, to the desire to be free. The PR that wants Statehood is a Gringito, who has no soul of a man left in his traitor's heart. Freedom is happening all over the world and yet we allow Gringitos to kill our right to be free.
A Gringito is a non-Anglo THING, IT is not really a "person", just like a mass murderer is more like an animal than a person, who internally is so inferior, that he desires to be what he can not be—thus Gringito means little gringo.
The Gringito is like an Uncle Tom to blacks or a collaborator and traitor to many others. To us he/she is all three and much worst. The "It or thing" I call Gringito, is the enemy of freedom -- all thru out HUMAN history.
We allow the Alien Invaders to kill, harm, abuse, rape, and scam us and yet the Gringito wants to give our Country away.
This abuse must end. No man or woman is a real Man or real woman who is too scared to fight for their souls and be free. If you listen to the Gringito, you will lose your soul.
Thru out eternity, humanity owes its freedom from slavery, ONLY TO BRAVE SOULS who fought and DIED for your right to be free.
The fight will NOT succeed if you don't fight the Gringito enemy/traitor/collaborator at home first. He is there next door and claims he is a real man and tries to give you many excuses of why PR can't be a free Country.
To give away your/our/my Country is not a right of alien invaders, visitors or foreigners with NO Puerto Rican Blood.
The right to vote on THIS ISSUE should NOT be given to NON-Puerto Ricans.
The fight for the independence of Puerto Rico is now non-violent and will be won in the hearts of real men around the World.
The Ronbothunter,
A proud freedom loving Puerto Rican.

He has a new hit show and a total babe for a fiancée, and as it turns out Justin Theroux is also quite generous.
The "Leftovers" stud chatted with Chelsea Handler about his penchant for gifting eggs to friends during Monday's "Chelsea Lately."
Revealing that he has a few skeletons in his closet, Justin Theroux chatted with host Jimmy Kimmel about his "bad boy" past earlier this week.
Kicking off the segment with a laugh, Jimmy joked about the "Leftover" star's new Details cover, which quickly led into Kimmel talking about Justin's reputation. "I know you...You don't do drugs...You're a good boy."
During promotions for his HBO series "The Leftovers," Justin Theroux scored a feature in the August 2014 issue of ELLE magazine.
It's not a place for everyone, and that rule definitely applied to Justin Theroux and his distaste for Los Angeles, CA.
His HBO series "The Leftovers" is gaining tons of fans with each new episode, and Justin Theroux is soaking up the success by fronting the August 2014 issue of Details magazine.
Taking care of their to-do list, Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux exited their hotel in New York City on Tuesday afternoon (June 25).
The "Friends" actress and her "American Psycho" beau are in town to promote Theroux's new HBO series "The Leftovers," and Justin told press he knows what he'd grab if the rapture actually happened.
They're quite the showbiz couple and Jennifer Aniston made sure she was front-and-center as he boyfriend Justin Theroux's new HBO series "The Leftovers" made its premiere in New York City last night (June 23).
Sporting a snazzy black getup, the "We're the Millers" hottie was all smiles as she arrived on her hunky beau's arm at the NYU Skirball Center.
Creating an eerie start to your week, HBO released the first official trailer for "The Leftovers" on Monday (April 28).
Starring Justin Theroux, the dramatic series "chronicles the aftermath of the Rapture gone awry."

Well, due to losing access to my g-mail, I'm back on this alt with the horrid reputation it has. (Frankly I'm surprised there's not a "Whackmiester" article on ED.)
Well, an important lesson is to be learned here: You cannot escape your reputation. Ever. All I can do now is just try to make a better reputation....

Lyrics Depot is your source of lyrics to In the Trunk by Too Short. Please check back for more Too Short lyrics.
In the Trunk Lyrics
Artist: Too Short
Album: Shorty The Pimp-Explicit
It's on
Where they at, where they at, where they at
I sold tapes every day me and Freddy B
Been famous since 1983
Give me ten dollars, and you straight get blessed
A rap all about you called the special request
Oakland, you know I go way back
To coug nuts, fal stangs, and cadillac's
When homeboys put vogues on any car
With 6 by 9's smoking burners
Everybody got addicted to my dopefiend beat
Whole town fucked around and started smoking D
Every rap I ever made was about this town
I made 7 whole albums with no James Brown
And even though I love his music, I just can't stand
The way they used it all up and didn't pay the man
And after 2 platnum albums, you call me weak
Cause I don't sell records in the East
Now what's funky, I say pussy on an old hoe
I guess y'all fools don't know
Why some good rappers can't sell no tapes
It's not the company's fault, the shit sounds fake
You wanna be in the trunk, with the booming box
While the young bitches ride on your jock
You can't do it like this homey, so just pass it
And stop kissing them white folks asses
It's like you smoked a whole damn key
You rap so fast you keep leaving the beat
I'm from the old school, I love P-Funk
But now rap music is all that they want
So when I'm in my car, I play Clinton
And when I'm on the stage I start pimping
And when I hear your shit, I push eject
Then I throw it out the window with the rejects
And when the hard core rappers go soft
I like to watch when they ass fall off
Cause ain't nothing worth kicking like a sucka MC
And any other rappers ever talk about me
I don't stop rapping, that's all they can say
And how I dogg bitches, every day
But if you can't be a dogg, then you're weak
You be phony like a side show freak
Some rappers try to come off positive
Where I'm from that just ain't how it is
They say rap music is here to stay
But the sucka MC's don't think that way
It took 8 long years before I got my break
So I wonder why rapper's make fake ass tapes
You won't get paid like I did, so give up punk
And while your in the studio, I'm in the trunk
You got no choice, so don't flip that coin
This ain't the military, so you punks can't join
It ain't pop, it's called underground rap
From Oakland California and the shit sounds phat
I'm spitting raps to my motherfucking homies
That's why they listen to the one and only
I used to be broke, but now we all used to be
Got no game for a bitch, all the game is for me
And these bitches, can't say shit to me
They could never could fuck with Short baby
I'm not a tounge twisting rapper with a funny style
Don't dress hip hop and dance real wild
But I do sell records like a motherfucker
Even though you might I'm just another sucka
I find the beat and then never switch
Grab the microphone and then call you a bitch
You want rent money, I got pimp money
One thing's for sure, I won't give it to a hoe
I throw a bitch in the god damn trunk
And start slamming that Oakland funk
Short Dogg's in the house, once again
Trying to fade the platnum, with Shorty the Pimp
And when I do, I'm going straight to the bank
Withdraw some money and buy some dank
You can't relate to my motherfucking homies
That's why they listen to the one and only
I grew up on the funk called P
But these motherfuckers growing up on me
And if I ego trip, and my head is fucked
I take my ass back, to where I grew up
And get real boy, it's never too late
Before I do like you and make a weak ass tape
I'm in the trunk...
in the trunk, in, in the trunk
in the trunk, in, in the trunk
in the trunk beating down the block
in the trunk, in, in the trunk
in the trunk, in, in the trunk
in the trunk beating down the block

He has been out of office for more than a year and a half now--and has spent, by his own account, a notable amount of that time in the bathtub. Yet many Americans still want to believe that Alan Greenspan is in charge of the economy.
In olden times, mainly the late 1990s, faith in Greenspan's omnipotence was expressed almost exclusively in positive terms. He was the "maestro," as Bob Woodward dubbed him in a best-selling book; the senior member of the "Committee to Save the World," as this magazine put it in a 1999 cover story; the Federal Reserve chairman...

Every June, assuming I'm sober enough to remember what month it is, I give advice to graduating students. These students then base their entire lives on my advice, succeeding or failing in life only because of how closely they followed my genius. Or I assume so, at least.
Skeptics may note that I'm not technically a genius. They may also note that a few minutes before writing this column, I accidentally sat on my own arm and was surprised to have done so. Do not listen to these jealous fools. Just listen to my advice, which is sound:
– If you're giving an important presentation at work and your groin itches, do not try to subtly scratch it by leaning against the edge of the conference table. You're not fooling anyone, Itchy McTableballs.

Adirondack Research is an independent research firm focused on social and environmental issues. With a diverse team of experts and partners, we specialize in creating customized solutions driven by science.
We use science to inform decisions.
We conduct process-based research focused on social science, climate change, and invasive species. Our passion is research, and we tailor each project to the specific needs of our clients, helping people make informed decisions when they matter.
Advising on Invasive Species in New York State
Invasive plants and animals pose a risk to ecosystem and human health, and often cause economic harm as well. Adirondack Research has conducted assessments of non-native plants for the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation to inform official lists of invasive species. Our detailed assessments support state regulations for the sale and transport of invasive species in order to best protect native ecosystems.
Our work defending against invasive species extends into the field, where we have partnered with the Adirondack Park Invasive Plant Program to develop the best monitoring and analysis techniques to assess invasive species management strategies at historic common reed and Japanese knotweed treatment sites in the Adirondack Park.
Solving Social Challenges
Adirondack Research is dedicated to supporting science-backed solutions to social problems large and small. Partnering with the Adirondack Foundation, we assessed the opportunities for education support of children between birth and age three (BT3) in northern New York State.
We used standardized assessment protocol followed by a program analysis to analyze BT3 programs, their effectiveness, shortcomings, and areas of potential improvement. Through our recommendations for system enhancements and publications, we are supporting the effectiveness and visibility of the strong network of service providers in the north country to support the success of our youngest community members.
We communicate science to influence policy.
The results of our studies are delivered to policy-makers and the public through accessible reports and engaging graphics, peer-reviewed publications, public awareness campaigns, citizen science and environmental advocacy.
Guiding New York State's Classification of Boreas Ponds
The Boreas Ponds Tract—over 20,000 acres of pristine wetlands, forests and mountains adjacent to the Adirondack high peaks—is now open to the public for the first time in more than a century, thanks to the state's purchase of the tract. Adirondack Research developed and performed a scientific assessment of the ecological, physical, and intangible attributes of Boreas Ponds, from examining the risk of soil erosion on potential trails to mapping out large mammal travel corridors.
Our comprehensive, transparent evaluation will help New York State officials determine the best land classification for the Boreas Ponds tract, with a focus on the land's ecological integrity, wild character, and ability to support public recreation. Learn more about this project and read our final report here.
Calculating the Hidden Costs of Road Salt
We know that road salt causes corrosion to our vehicles, bridges, and more—but we don't know to what extent. In partnership with ADK Action, Adirondack Research is investigating the cost burden of road salt use to residents and taxpayers across New York State.
By analyzing publicly available information on bridge assessment scores, personal vehicle resale values, county economics, and other factors, we are developing a clearer picture of the true cost of road salt. This information can then be shared in peer-reviewed publications, petition drives, and media delivery to create a better public understanding of these costs and inform future policy measures.

At the right time of day, the shadows turn a building into a maze of tesselating angles. Theres also a color version. The shadow creates a phantom balcony. (Theres also a color version.) (No bigger version available.) Someone had the courtesy to leave a fire escape light on one night on 17th Street just west of Union Square. You come walking down the sidewalk and there above you, suspended in the night, is a lovely white lattice. It cried out for a camera, so I went home and brought one back. Two lenses in the rain.
