This was our first experience ocean front. We have been coming to the outerbanks for 24 years and has always stayed in Duck. We really like the location of the house and being on the beach. Loved the Pool . The Master bedroom upstair, beautiful. Master bedroom second floor, also very nice. Village Realty was great, they responded quickly to any problems. With all this being said we will not rent this house again. The rails on deck are very loose ,all decking floor boards are coming up. I stepped on nail heads that were out of the boards. The shrubs,steps and walking area were over grown with sicker vines, that we cut out so babies would not get cut. There was no access outside from basement, which is not safe. The rooms downstairs only had one access to bathroom and out of the bedroom, which was walking through someone else's room. (so odd). Ants were horrible inside and out , we lost food in the cabinet from this. The windows were dirty when we got here and one bedroom had an old open bar of soap in shower.
Property Manager Response:
Thank you for your survey. I see that you called in most of these issues, thank you for the opportunity to take care of these items for you so that you could enjoy your vacation. We also appreciate the information about the decks and we will definitely be taking a thorough look at them so that any safety concerns are addressed.

"It was a great weekend. On a scale of 1 to 10 it was a 15. Talking to Coach Golden, there is no doubt in my mind that a national championship is going to be brought to Miami," Chickillo said following his visit.
What does that mean in terms of his commitment status?
"I'm 200% committed to Miami."
Chickillo, who would be the third member of his family to play football for the Hurricanes (his father and grandfather both played at UM), had been around the program for years, but visiting the campus this weekend still had a profound effect on him.
"Just getting to the campus. Right when I pulled up to the campus, you know I've been around the Miami program for a long time now, since I was 6 years old. I was around in 2001 and 2002 when Miami was on top of the college football world. Right when I stepped on to the campus I got goose bumps because of the excitement that Coach Golden has brought and the enthusiasm, I remembered that feeling I had when Miami was dominant. The feeling is back. Coach Golden and his staff are going to do great things together and I can't wait to get down there with my teammates and just start working."
Chickillo shared his enthusiasm with some of the more than a dozen prospects who were at Miami this weekend for their official visits, and enjoyed spending time with them.
"Those are some great guys. Me and Denzel committed and we're going to get a couple more commits from that visit. They're a bunch of great guys and they are fun to be around," Chickillo said of the other visitors.
During his visit, Chickillo had a chance to sit down with Coach Al Golden. He came away very impressed with Miami's new head coach.
"The energy and enthusiasm. Everything that I want the Miami program to be, he wants," Chickillo said of Golden.
"He wants to bring home national championships. He wants Miami to be the most dominant program in college football because that's the way it should be. It's us against the world. That mentality is back. Coach Golden is the type of guy who will play anybody anywhere. We're not backing down, and we're ready to go."
Chickillo also spoke about how he and his father both also came away impressed by Jethro Franklin, Chickillo's potential future DL coach.
"My dad is excited. He said the same thing as me. He loves Coach Golden and his mindset, and Coach Franklin on the DLine. I've been recruited by over 60 schools and he's the best one I've talked to. He's been in the League, he's coached in the League, he's coached 22 years on the DLine, he knows technique and he's just outstanding. The only thing that worries me about Coach Franklin is that he's such a good coach that he'll become a head coach one day."
Chickillo was so impressed by his visit to Miami that he has shut down his recruiting process. He will take no more visits and will sign with Miami on National Signing Day.
"No, no. I'm done. I'm done," Chickillo said about taking other visits.

Yemen's president, Ali Abdullah Saleh, was so severely injured in an assassination attempt that it is uncertain when he will return to the country, his Vice-President has said. Mr Saleh was wounded in a bomb attack on his palace in early June amid months of protests against his three-decade rule, and is being treated in Saudi Arabia.
Vice-President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi told CNN that he saw Mr Saleh after the attack with a piece of wood between his ribs and burns to his face, arms and upper body. Mr Hadi said no one could tell when Mr Saleh might return.

Bobbi Kristina Brown's relatives have agreed to take her off life support. But they want to wait until Wednesday so she can die on the same date as her tragic mom, Whitney Houston, SIA reports citing the Post.
Bobbi's grandmother Cissy Houston floated the idea of a death over the weekend during discussions with the Brown family at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta. The Browns gave their blessing to pull the plug at the stroke of midnight to align the date with the 2012 passing of the legendary singer at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.
Note that Bobbi Kristina, 21, the only child of Houston and singer Bobby Brown, has been in a medically induced coma since she was found unresponsive in a bathtub.

Loyalist soldiers fired live bullets and tear gas as they tried to break up crowds chanting "Down with Gaddafi" and waving the flag of the uprising.
Worshippers pouring out of the Murad Agha mosque after Friday prayers in the eastern district of Tajoura were met with force when they tried to march.
A 29-year-old man, who had a family member shot dead last Friday, said protesters were worried about pro-Gaddafi spies, but wanted "to show the world that we are not afraid".
Loyalist soldiers sought to clamp down on the movement of the rebels by setting up checkpoints on the main road in and out of Tripoli.
There were reports of at least three dead and many injured in Zawiya, the closest opposition-held city to Tripoli, after an attack by a large force from a brigade led by one of Col Gaddafi's sons. The troops from the Khamis Brigade, named after the son, fired mortars and then fought battles of heavy machineguns and automatic weapons with residents and rebel army units.
Heavy fighting also broke out in the eastern oil port of Ras Lanuf, 410 miles east of Tripoli.
The UN warned today that thousands of refugees could flood into Europe in the wake of the Libya crisis.
The chaos on the borders of the stricken country may just be the beginning of a huge movement of people across North Africa and the Mediterranean. About 140,000 migrants have attempted to cross into Egypt and Tunisia and thousands of Nigerians have fled south to the border with Niger.
The United Nations Refugee Agency said European countries should start preparing for a "mass exodus" of Libyans and other nationalities.
A spokeswoman said: "At the moment we are worried about the dramatic drop in the number of people trying to get into Tunisia as we know tens of thousands are trying to flee the violence. That may be as a result of fear or they could be being actively prevented.
"The situation could change very quickly and there could be mass exodus trying to get across the Mediterranean. It would be responsible for European countries to start preparing."
Agencies such as the International Organisation for Migration have called for an $11 million emergency fund to deal with refugees stranded at the border. It calculates that there are about half a million foreigners in Libya who are trying to get out. The huge movement of economic migrants and asylum seekers has been building across North Africa - this year could be the tipping point.
The Italian interior minister, Roberto Maroni, of the anti-immigration Northern League, has asked for immediate EU help to deal with up to a million illegal immigrants expected to land in Italy this year. The EU border agency says the number could be 1.5 million.
In 2008, Silvio Berlusconi signed a friendship pact with Libya, including $5 billion reparation for Italy's colonial rule in the early part of the last century.
The hidden understanding was that Col Gaddafi would detain many of those using Libya as a port of departure for Europe. The Libyans are believed to have detained up to 2.5 million would-be migrants and asylum seekers.

Will Big Phil go over water to EU?
The announcement of water charges of around E240 per family by Environment Minister, Phil Hogan last week really has hit Fine Gael candidates on the doorstep. They have received a deluge of criticism from voters who see this latest charge, agreed by the last FF led government and the Troika as the straw to break the camel's back.
However, the question has to be asked, what pressure was brought to bear on FG to go out and commit Hara-Kiri two weeks before a local and European election.
Insider heard that Labour ministers were all set to agree the charges three months ago but got cold feet and then the issue was forced on the government when Taoiseach Enda Kenny told Fianna Fail leader, Michael Martin in the Dail that the charges would be announced before the local elections and ever a man of his word, Mr Kenny got Minister Hogan to stand up, sorry sit down at a press conference, drinking a glass of water and smiling to break the bad news
It will provide Sinn Fein with the fillip they sought. The government has given them the ammunition they needed to copperfasten their place in the opinion polls. Kathleen Funchion has a new pep in her step and seems to be reborn, looking fresh and ready for the fray.
However the big question following the water charges announcement is this; Will Big Phil go to Europe? No one seems to know. His cavalier attitude and the way he walked out into the firing; line on the water charges would lead you to believe he in the way to Europe, either is this country's next EU Commissioner or as a judge in the EU court of auditors based in London. On the other hand he has just announced E27 million in funding for the city and county for water schemes and waste water schemes.
Insider thinks that if, as predicted, Labour have a bad election, either Pat Rabbitte or even Eamon Gilmore will fly off to Europe,leaving the way open for Joan Bruton, who has strong Graignamanagh connections with Deputy Ann Phelan. If Joan Burton is elected Ann Phelan will get a junior ministry.

BANGKOK (AFP) – More than 100 migrants thought to be from China's Uighur minority have escaped from shelters in Thailand, with authorities fearing they have fallen into the hands of a human trafficking ring, an official said Wednesday.
Thailand has held dozens of the migrants since March, when they were discovered during a raid on a suspected people-smuggling camp in the kingdom's deep south and sentenced for illegal entry.
Police had said they were waiting to identify the nationalities of the group before deciding their fate.
The migrants claimed they were Turkish, but US-based Uighur activists identified them as Uighurs – a Turkic-speaking, predominantly Muslim group from China's northwestern Xinjiang region.
The latest annual US human rights report said that China carries out "severe official repression" of Uighurs in Xinjiang, with the Thai raid in March prompting the US State Department to urge Thailand to offer the group protection.
"Only 40 of around 160 women and children remain at the two shelters. They ran away together at night between November 1 and 5," Jaras Chumpan, chief of the social development and human security office in southern Songkhla province, told AFP by telephone.
"I am concerned that they might have been trafficked," he added. "They want to go to Turkey – they do not want to go back to China."
Thailand has long been a hub for people-trafficking, with thousands of Rohingya, a Muslim minority group from neighbouring Myanmar, believed to have passed through the kingdom in recent years.
Songkhla immigration police chief Thatchai Pitaneelaboot confirmed authorities were searching for the missing women and children, adding that police were still trying to determine their nationalities.
"We still don't know their identities – we are waiting for their identity proofs," said Thatchai, adding police thought they were from China or Turkey.
In March a southern Thai court fined around 120 adults $124 each for illegal entry, holding the men in detention centres and the women and children in shelters.
"The men have been detained in detention centres across the country," said Thatchai, adding that more than 300 men, women and children were discovered in the March raid – raising a previous estimate of roughly 200 people.
Under pressure from Beijing, countries including Cambodia, Malaysia and Pakistan have all in recent years forcibly returned Uighurs to China. Thailand has a generally cordial relationship with China.

Wish we were here/
Laura and I have so many good things to share with you- the story of her amazing auction fiber score, a new paper star tutorial, several knitting projects that have been started and finished and a few seasonal posts, but right now my life looks like this-
as I work to meet my first book deadline. And as Laura's house is off-the-grid, I help with her blog photos, so I'm also the hold-up for her pending blog content.
But there's all kinds of magic happening behind the curtain and I'm really pleased with where the book is headed. It's both absorbing and challenging to focus so completely on the same several designs, and I'm so excited to eventurally be able to share them with you. I've also got some news coming up next week about how you can be involved in the book project, so stay tuned for more on that.
I've been a voracious online media consumer as I knit and knit and knit, and when I need to take a break from Downton Abbey, British comedy on Hulu, and The Daily Show, I'm really digging Diane's podcasts at CraftyPod. I found many of her free podcasts instructive and thought-provoking in the past, (her podcast about craft book publishing was one of the most helpful resources I found online when researching my book proposal), so when she began charging a fee for each podcast, I was happy to pay a small bit to support her new series. Diane often writes and talks about the business of creative work and this podcast with Lisa Congleton has been particularly helpful to me as I focus so intently on meeting my specific deadlines.
Even though I love the work I do, sitting alone in my studio can be isolating and boring at times. Listening to Diane's podcasts helps me remember that I am a part of the larger craft community. I like that Diane features both the "bigger picture" why we do what we do converstations, as well as the nitty-gritty, how do we actually get our work done. If you'd like to think and learn more about how the business of crafting intersects with the online world, I recommend both Diane's blog and podcasts.
I'm always looking for more good shows or podcasts. What do you like to listen to or watch when you're knitting a big project?

Potter star looks to life without wands or wizards
By Mike Collett-White
LONDON (Reuters) - For Daniel Radcliffe, it's time to forget Harry Potter. The 22-year-old actor, inextricably linked to the boy wizard he played throughout the movie franchise, takes on his first adult role in Victorian-era horror film "The Woman in Black."
Hitting theatres in Britain on February 10 and a week earlier in the United States, the movie is a step into the unknown for an actor who grew up on the set of one of Hollywood's most successful series.
Instead of production budgets of $250 million or more, The Woman in Black cost an estimated $17 million to make. And however big Radcliffe's fan base around the world, another billion-dollar box office looks out of the question.
James Watkins, who directed The Woman In Black, called it a "reinvention" for Radcliffe.
"I think it's the start of that, absolutely," Radcliffe told Reuters in an interview ahead of Tuesday's red carpet world premiere of the new movie.
One of the attractions of playing Arthur Kipps, a young lawyer and father mourning the death of his wife, was the obvious break with what went before.
"People haven't seen me looking like this before. People haven't seen me playing a father -- all those things are going to help separate it in their mind," Radcliffe said.
"But I think ultimately the thing that will help that reinvention is the fact that the story is so good. I think people will very quickly forget that they're watching Harry Potter." Continued...

At a college?? Well, no, it shouldn't be exposed, but it's a college. At my nieces school (UW Eau Clair) I was able to not only break their wireless (WEP at the time), but also gain access to many parts of their network including a second AD running student accounts for the whole school. Could have totally wiped out the student user DB.
Like I said, it's a college, which generally means it is NOT secure by any stretch

Gender and Suicide Method: Do Women Avoid Facial Disfiguration?

This study hypothesizes that women are less likely than men to use suicide methods that disfigure the face. Gender differences in the use of suicide methods that disfigure the face were examined using medical examiner's files of 621 suicides covering a 10-year period from Summit County, Ohio in the U.S. Results showed that while firearms are the preferred method for both women and men, women were less likely to shoot themselves in the head. A series of logistic regression analyses revealed that gender, age, stressful life events and prior suicide attempts were predictors of methods that disfigure the face/head. Significant differences between men and women in correlates of suicide method emerged when the sample was split by gender. The results support the position that women who commit suicide are more likely than men who commit suicide to avoid facial disfiguration.

The Supreme Court found that JFS, formerly Jews Free School in Brent, broke race discrimination laws by rejecting a boy whose mother was not Jewish in the eyes of the Chief Rabbi.
Ministers fear the judgment means 100 state and private Jewish schools are breaking race laws by selecting pupils who conform to their beliefs.
Many more Christian, Muslim, and Sikh schools could also be forced to give equal priority to non-believers or pupils of other faiths, according to the Government's lawyers.
Children's Secretary Ed Balls vowed to protect the right of faith schools to select pupils on the grounds of their religion. He hinted that ministers may be prepared to review race discrimination laws to preserve the autonomy of schools such as JFS.
Mr Balls said: "We are going to need to look carefully at the implications of this, and all faith organisations will as well. We must make sure that the role of faith schools is properly protected in our state education system. Any further steps which have to be taken should only be taken once we have studied the judgment."
He said he did not see "any reason" to change the principles of the Government's school admissions code, which allows faith schools to select pupils on the grounds of their religion.
Along with many faith schools, JFS is hugely popular with parents and receives many more applications than it has places available. It gives priority to pupils who are deemed by the Chief Rabbi to meet the Orthodox criteria.
In today's ruling, a majority of Supreme Court judges dismissed JFS's appeal against an earlier judgment that it broke race discrimination laws by refusing a place to a 12-year-old boy known as "M".
The school rejected "M" because his mother had not converted to Judaism in an Orthodox synagogue. The Supreme Court said such a decision represented "direct discrimination" and broke the Race Relations Act 1976.
"The reason for the refusal to admit M to JFS was his lack of the requisite ethnic origins," the judges said. "The fact that a decision to discriminate on racial grounds is based upon a devout, venerable and sincerely held religious belief or conviction cannot inoculate or excuse such conduct from liability under the 1976 Act."
But the judges warned that they were not making a "moral" criticism of JFS and that the school should not be branded "racist" in the popular sense of the word.
They suggested that an "explicit exemption" from race laws may be needed to allow Jewish schools to continue to select pupils in a way that complies with their beliefs.Reuse content

Don't Piss Off A Goddess
the story of the ancient goddesses.
I am not your average girl. I can't sit still for hours, spinning. I have to be out in the woods, running around. I don't care if it is different. I am different. I am Artemis. I am better.
My father has known that, ever since I was born. I had a job to do from the minute I was born. I needed to help my mother. She was still in labor with my twin brother, Apollo. I immediately took up position as midwife for my dear mother, Leto.
Hera is a very jealous goddess. She cursed my beloved mother. The curse made it impossible for Leto to give birth on land, or anywhere the sun shines. She was angry because her husband, Zeus, is my father. Lucky for my mother, Poseidon, my uncle, revealed part of an island by removing the sea from its beaches. My mother made it here, to Delos. The moment I was born, I had a job. My birth was painless for my mother, the same is not true for my brother. Apollo, my twin, never was nor will he ever be, like me. his birth was long and difficult. Where my birth took but moments, Apollo's took about eleven hours. As soon as he was born, we were both given nectar and ambrosia, the food of the gods. After one day, we were both full gods.
Some gods are born, such as Zeus. Some are made, like me. As a young goddess, I was a total wild child. I sat on my fathers lap, days after I born, and asked gifts from the king of gods. I asked for 60 9-year-old Oceanides, and 20 nymphs from the Amnisos river. I didnt really care about land or people, but my daddy loved me so much, he gave them to me anyway. I did ask to be able to continue to help women in labor with their childbirth.
After these requests were granted, my father sent me to the cyclops, the one that makes his lightning bolts. He made me a bow, and a quiver of arrows. They were silver and I loved them imediately. I still do. They are the exact oppisite of my brothers arrows. His are golden, and cause extreme pain. My gilded silver arrows are completely painless.
I still had one more stop to make. I had to visit Pan. He granted me some of his hounds, for my activities in the forest.
I am what I have made myself. I am Artemis, Goddess of Childbirth, Hunting, Madians, Infants, Dawn, Frost, and Healing.

Originally posted on Grits Blitz | Last updated 3/12/13
After 14 great seasons with the Atlanta Falcons, Todd McClure has decided to hang 'em up. As is the case with most offensive linemen, McClure was vastly under-appreciated by most casual Falcons fans and will likely leave in the same manner. After all, with all the excitement surrounding free agency, the recent release of three key starters and the return of Tony Gonzalez, who is Todd McClure and why should we even care? Well, for starters, keep in mind that offensive linemen are rarely praised and are heavily criticized. If they do their job well, they simply did their job. There's really nothing all that glamorous about it. However, if the quarterback takes a sack or the running back gets stuffed, the offensive line is typically the first card we like to pull in our little blame game. With that, let's take a look back on McClure's career. When the 36-year-old was drafted in the seventh round by Atlanta in 1999, he started out his career suffering an ACL tear during training camp that would keep him sidelined his entire rookie season. McClure responded to the injury by going on to play in 198 games as a Falcon - in which he went over nine consecutive seasons without missing a start with 195 total. He and his offensive line were also responsible for the Falcons leading the league in rushing from 2003-2006. So it's actually no surprise that every running back that's ever had McClure as a blocker has rushed for 1000-plus yards rushing. So why should you care about Todd McClure? I shouldn't have to tell you. He's got a resume over a decade long that can do the talking. Do you have any favorite memories of McClure? How do you think his replacement, Peter Konz, will fair in 2013? Sound off in the comments and be sure to send him a tweet @ToddMcClure62 letting him know how much you appreciate the foundation he helped build in Atlanta.

Free Range Pork
Our free range pork is reared in a system that has health and welfare at its heart. The pigs are not certified organic but have the space to roam and root.
The pork cuts will be from pigs reared on pasture approved foods including fresh pasture, local vegetables and lucerne silage and are reared without the use of routine antibiotics etc.
The pigs are allowed to move around freely at all times, sometimes they are out in fields and otherwise they are in large straw bedded yards that allow the pigs to express their natural rooting instincts.
Our bacon products are nitrate free so will appear whiter than most nitrate containing bacon. We currently use a 80% sale to 20% sugar cure for the best flavour as we have found the straight salt unpalatable and received complaints. We can offer the option of a buying an organic, free-range, pastured pig and we can cure the bacon for you in a specially designed sea salt cure with no sugar or a sea salt and molasses cure. We would on this occasion need to send the package in two delivery shipments to allow for the curing time so there will be an additional delivery charge.

Deferred prosecution agreements — definitive guidelines and code of conduct - .PDF file.
Deferred prosecution agreements (DPAs), the government's newest weapon in the fight against corporate crime, become available to prosecutors from 24 February 2014. They will widen the scope for enforcement against companies and corporate entities involved in fraud, money laundering, bribery and corruption. On 14 February 2014, the director of the Serious Fraud Office and the director of public prosecutions published a joint code of practice on their use of DPAs, which supplements the recently published Sentencing Council's Definitive Guideline on fraud, bribery and money laundering for corporate offenders. The government announced plans to introduce DPAs in October 2012 and they were given their statutory footing in the Crime and Courts Act 2013, which received royal assent in April 2013. In the summer of 2013, there followed an extensive consultation exercise that has resulted in the publication of the code.
A DPA is a public, voluntary and transparent agreement between a prosecutor and an organisation whereby prosecution for alleged economic crimes can be deferred if certain conditions are met. If an organisation admits wrongdoing, a DPA would still mean criminal charges being laid but the proceedings would be automatically suspended pending compliance with stringent conditions, which will be agreed between the parties and subject to approval by the judiciary. Conditions may include disgorgement of profits, payment of fines, compensation for victims, co-operation in any prosecution of individuals and implementation of a compliance programme, if necessary with a monitor appointed. Unequivocal co-operation by the corporate is essential. If the conditions are not met, the prosecution will be resumed. Neither the code nor the guidelines seek to dissuade prosecutors prosecuting where the public interest would not be served by entering into a DPA. However, it is hoped that their use in appropriate circumstances can help to mitigate some of the collateral damage caused to shareholders and employees when a company is convicted of a criminal offence by the courts — for example if the business is wound up…

|Half Baths
|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|2 - 3 nights
Sunny beach cottage, half block from the sandy beaches of Lake Michigan, 40 miles to Chicago. 3 bedroom 1 1/2 bath plus outdoor shower. Lovely front porch perfect for summertime people watching.
Growing pains forced us to move from this house but we stayed here in Miller Beach because we love it so much.
Bryan Woodruff purchased this house in 2003
This is a sunny, adorable cottage perfect for your beach vacation. After spending a day in the sun, rinse the sand off in our outdoor shower. Chicago is less than an hour away for those who like a break from the beach or an evening out in a world-class city.
A half block walk to the beach. Easy highway access. Close to South Shore Train to Chicago.
Visited with my adult children and we loved it! Plenty of space, clean and charming. We chose a cold weekend for the beach but we took pictures there, great access to sand and waves, and we'll return in the summer months for sure. Very responsive owner and we felt at home, cooking and enjoying the big porch. Highly recommend this destination.
Right near the beach, close to everything you need.
It was a charming and pleasant home. Accommodations were clean. Sleeps 6 in beds, not 8. Kitchen, porch and living room were very inviting and comfortable. Great for relaxing and sharing. Lovely walk to the beach!
LOVE MILLER BEACH! Spent the first 20 yrs of my life there. Raised my 3 kids every summer on its shores. Now that my mom no longer lives in Miller, we rent. Very comfortable home, so close to the beach! Awesome, cozy bed when exhausted from sun, sand & fun!! Will book for a longer period in the future! GREAT landlord!
Loved the variety of colors in the different rooms. Worked great for our family of 6. Kids enjoyed the air hockey table. WiFi and cable channels didn't work the best but when you ate taking a vacation that close to the beach to shouldn't need those anyway! Love the SHORT walk to the nice beach. Would definitely stay here again!
30 plus years had passed since some of my high school friends and I got together. I live in Minnesota and they are still in Ohio so this location was a reasonable half way point for our group. The house really worked well for our needs. It was close to the beach, had everything we needed to cook, sleep, play at the beach and shower. House was clean and the neighborhood was extremely safe. Excellent customer service by the owners. They accommodated our early check-in needs and refilled the propane tank to the grill. The house rule book indicated a small grocery store a short walk away - we walked only to find the store was closed for business. No worries though because the grocery store 5 miles away provided everything we needed. Ordered pizza from the Flamingo the first night and service/food was good too. We were able to use the boogie boards and beach chairs during our stay which was very nice. Our group did not have one bad experience in working with the owners to rent or during our stay. The only thing I would note to future renters is to keep in mind that this is a residential home that has been lived in and not a hotel. Again, the accommodations were perfect and we would reserve again in the future. I cannot thank the owners enough for opening this house as a rental property so groups like ours have the opportunity to gather and enjoy a beautiful beach as a very reasonable price.

The City Paper: Goin' Out with Class!
So, Pete Morelowicz is upset at losing his job. And, to a certain extent, I feel bad for the guy. I'm told, and I could have this wrong, that he was the driving force behind the City Paper's new layout and design and resize, and, if so, then kudos--that was a bang-up, solid, excellent job. But if what made it into City Desk is meant to be his parting shot--and he wasn't totally shitfaced when he wrote it--then my sympathy is basically nil. Why? Because basically, what's befallen he and his colleagues is basically all our fault.
Basically, his gripe is: "This city used to be awesome. But then people I don't like moved in. And, blah blah, let me recycle the most tired "Starbucks" argument from 1996. Blah blah. U Street used to be a 'seed bed of talent.' I'm either too stupid to recognize the rich talent that is not coincidentally and arbitrarily located on a four block stretch of road that's the center of the universe as far as I'm concerned, or, I recognize it and have deemed it not cool. Whatever. My point is, I am losing my job because the people who live in DC are no longer cool enough to get what we're about. I blame them. They suck. The good old days are over. Whine! Whine! Meeeee! MEEEEEEEE!!"
Reading it pissed my friend Ryan off, who wrote: "I was almost to feeling sorry for the CP, until I read that art director's screed. It's actually a pretty perfect summary of the message CP has consistently presented over the past few years: DC was a whole lot better before you fuckers all moved here, and we can't even bother seeing if new fun and creative things are happening because yada yada Starbucks. It drips antipathy toward the people that live in this city; and they're surprised nobody wants to read them anymore." One commenter on the site basically nails it: "Man, I tell ya guys. I really felt for you (and for Kiki and folks at the Chicago Reader) but did you really mean to lash out at US, the READERS, when complaining about YOUR predicament?"
It pissed me off, too. I know a shit-ton of people who hard long and hard to make DC a unique place to live. I spend a ridiculous amount of my own time, kicking in a share of effort myself. And people who run theatres and host readings and promote exhibits and rehearse their music really have a lot of hard work on their plate without being asked to take the blame for the demise of the fucking City Paper.
But, after about a half-hour of steaming, here's what happened. My life in the city picked up again. Show at Woolly, drinks out, new Simpsons movie, birthday dinner, leisurely walk in the cooling night air up 7th, meeting up with friends at the Red Room, midnight show at Source...poor Petey's screed faded into the background of a typically riotous, typically unique weekend for me and for everyone else who realizes that "the good old days" aren't something you wait to happen to you, they're something you go out and seize.
But sometime just before the show began Saturday night, my mind alit on the memory of Pete's whining lament, and I took a look around the room. There I was, surrounded by a packed house, studded with people whose contributions to the unique and vibrant character of the city I could list at length, all enjoying this great big cultural celebration that Damian Sinclair and Julianne Brienza built for Washington out of their force of will, in a great old theatre that we all thought we were going to lose until some great people and members of the DC Council found a way to save it.
Oh, I had to laugh. The good old days, over? Yeah, that's one delusion I won't be participating in, I'm afraid. The way I see it, the only cultural aspect of the city that's been damaged by the sale of the City Paper is the City Paper's own weenie roast (the bourgeois-feints-at-edge event of the season, I'm sure). And what can I say. Everyone who says you are what you eat was apparently right!
At any rate, we'll see if Creative Loafing can do a better job than the current regime. I'm guessing that if they do, it'll be something of a surprise. But one thing it won't be, is a shame.
Let it be noted that the parts of that City Desk post written by Mike DeBonis truly are breathtaking. As advertised, he writes like there is no tomorrow. Golly...Mike DeBonis blog post...handjob from the Holy Ghost...WHO CAN TELL THE DIFFERENCE ANYMORE?

Hispanic drug.
Drug all your friends
to let them know
This is the end.
The short-term route
may be the answer tonight
Climb down that chute.
The secret is circling
The matter is gravity
It's right now, happening.
It's impossible to ignore
the screaming inside my own head
This has happened before.
Does this include pain
I will never know
Will it rain again?
What will I do now
Regret? Satisfy?
I don't know how.
The heart's in its place
The body is in pieces
It needs time and space.
This definitely happened before
Time has been lost
I have come back for more.
How does this end
Long-lost time spent
Forgive me, my friend.
