US Investigate Taylor's Son: Torture & War Crime
U.S.: Investigate Taylor's Son for Torture, War Crimes
Son of Ex-Liberian President in U.S. Custody, To Be Arraigned on Tuesday
(New York) – The U.S. Department of Justice should investigate with a view to prosecuting Charles "Chuckie" Taylor, Jr., the son of former Liberian President Charles Taylor, for torture and war crimes, Human Rights Watch said today. The younger Taylor is implicated in committing such abuses while he served as the commander of an elite pro-government military unit in Liberia.
The former Liberian president's son is scheduled to be arraigned on Tuesday, May 30 at 10 a.m. in Miami before Judge Barry L. Garber in the New North Courtroom of the Dyer Building. He is indicted for falsely stating his father's name in a U.S. passport application. He was taken into U.S. custody on March 30 when he attempted to enter the United States at Miami International Airport.
"'Chuckie' Taylor headed a military unit that allegedly committed egregious abuses such as burning Liberian civilians alive," said Richard Dicker, International Justice director at Human Rights Watch. "Federal law allows for investigation and prosecution of such crimes. We look to the Justice Department to do just that."
According to information and research by Human Rights Watch and other international human rights organizations, "Chuckie" Taylor was involved in committing serious crimes from approximately 1997 through at least 2002, most notably while he headed the notorious Anti-Terrorist Unit (ATU), a unit of the Liberian government security forces.
Although the younger Taylor lived in Liberia, he is a U.S. citizen who was born in the United States. It is a crime under federal law for a U.S. citizen to commit torture and war crimes abroad.
"Federal laws on torture and war crimes committed abroad have been on the books for years, but we don't know of a single person who has been prosecuted for them," said Dicker. "How serious can the U.S. be about justice when these laws have never been used to hold our own citizens to account? With 'Chuckie' Taylor in custody, this is an ideal moment to wield this authority."
Recently, the U.N. Committee against Torture expressed concern that there have been no prosecutions under the U.S. criminal torture statute.
According to information and research available to Human Rights Watch, during "Chuckie" Taylor's tenure as head of the ATU, the unit committed torture, including various violent assaults, beating people to death, rape, and burning civilians alive. This information suggests that the ATU also committed war crimes during Liberia's armed conflict from 1999 to 2003 – including extrajudicial killing of civilians and prisoners, rape and other torture, abduction, and child soldier recruitment – while "Chuckie" Taylor headed the ATU.
To underscore the need for investigation and prosecution of Taylor, Jr. on torture and war crimes under federal law (18 USC sections 2340A and 2441), Human Rights Watch submitted a memorandum to the Department of Justice on serious abuses in which "Chuckie" Taylor is implicated. The memorandum includes Human Rights Watch's research and information from other human rights organizations, along with other open source material documenting the evidence against him to date.
Background on ATU
Shortly after his inauguration as Liberia's president in 1997, Charles Taylor created the ATU. The ATU was initially used in Liberia to protect government buildings, the Executive Mansion, the international airport, and to provide security for some foreign embassies. According to Human Rights Watch interviews with former Liberian combatants, the ATU's responsibilities were expanded in 1999 to include combat and other war-related duties, after rebels from the Liberians United for Reconciliation and Democracy began operating in Liberian territory.

Using so-called sin taxes to change consumer behavior is often controversial. Not surprisingly, tobacco companies and smokers don't like them, while many health organizations do, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Among the reasons for hiking Ohio's sin taxes on tobacco:
- The American Cancer Society of Ohio and other anti-smoking groups argue that when cigarette taxes go up, smoking goes down.
- Fewer smokers mean fewer tax dollars spent on health care.
- And for politicians, cigarette taxes are a no-brainer: It's easier to pass a tax increase that doesn't affect most voters' pocketbooks; only 29 percent of Cuyahoga County, Ohio, residents smoke.
But there is a case against raising taxes on tobacco, says the Plain Dealer:
- Tobacco giant Philip Morris and smokers' rights advocates say states ultimately lose money because smokers stop buying cigarettes at local stores; instead they buy them over the Internet or travel to nearby states with lower taxes.
- Cigarette taxes are unfair because they take a larger chunk out of a poor smoker's budget than a wealthy smoker's; the proposed tax would cost a two-pack-a-day smoker $236 a year.
- The Coalition for a Healthier Ohio says the state's annual smoking-caused Medicaid costs are $1.1 billion; Ohio taxpayers chip in $458 million and federal taxpayers (including Ohioans) pour in an additional $655 million.
- The true cost of a pack of cigarettes in the United States is really about $40, according to a 2004 Duke University study; that's based on lifetime costs for a 24-year-old smoker over 60 years (it includes the cost of cigarettes, taxes, life and property insurance, medical care and lost earnings because of smoking-related disabilities).
- The Duke study said smokers pay about $33 of the cost, their families pick up $5.44 and society chips in with $1.44.

Day 1: Arrival and Aboriginal Culture Park
Arrival in Cairns: Welcome to the tropics! On arrival you are met by a Small World Journeys staff member and transferred to your accommodation.
Accommodation: Your accommodation is at a breezy award-winning hostel in the centre of Cairns' restaurant and shopping district, and only a few blocks from the waterfront. Well shaded by tropical trees and plants, the hostel features an outdoor pool, pool table, large kitchen for self-catering meals and free internet and WiFi.
Aboriginal Culture Park: Today you visit a unique Aboriginal culture park, winner of multiple tourism awards. A perfect introduction to the 40,000 year old aboriginal culture, Tjapukai—named after the local indigenous tribe—showcases Aboriginal rituals, dance and traditional arts. You witness the telling of creation stories, listen to the haunting sounds of the didgeridoo, and learn to throw spears and boomerangs in the care of Tjapukai tribal members.
Accommodation: Cairns Budget Accommodation
Meals Included: Dinner
Day 2: National Park, Aboriginal Culture and Language
National Park: Today you enter Wooroonooran National Park—a diverse part of the UNESCO Wet Tropics World Heritage Area which hosts some of the oldest continually surviving rainforest in the world.
Josephine Falls: One of the most picturesque places in the entire Wet Tropics! Your group takes an easy walk through the jungle, listening for the call of the king parrot and the bowerbird and emerge at Josephine Falls, where Josephine Creek plunges down a gorgeous set of cascades. Below the falls, boulders surround a fun swimming hole and a natural water slide down a smooth sloping rock face.
Aboriginal Language Lesson: Next you travel south to a small community where you have the privilege to meet members of the Grant family who are descendants from the Jabanbarra Jirrbal Peoople (coastal plain people). This afternoon is a special lesson in learning the basic language skills required to speak a local Aboriginal language – Jirrbal. You will be taught by an Aboriginal elder from the Grant family who is one of the last remaining speakers of this language. You learn how the language curiously uses gender markers, what role language plays in stories and as a means to preserve culture. Using interactive language activities and games, your Aboriginal host teaches you in a fun and dynamic way how a local Aboriginal language and culture is delightfully intertwined. This is a unique indigenous cultural experience.
Accommodation: Set in the heart of the Tully Valley overlooking the picturesque mountains of the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area lies Echo Creek, your accommodation for the next two nights. Cabins are single-gender with all linen provided and separate shared bathrooms.
Accommodation: Tully Valley Cabins
Included: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner
Day 3: Guided River Kayaking and Aboriginal Culture
River Kayaking with Aboriginal Guides: Today Bulgan Creek's pristine wilderness and small gentle rapids treat both first timers and experienced kayakers alike. First you are fitted with a life jacket and after a safety briefing you are given instruction on paddling skills. You then wind your way down the creek, its banks cloaked in lush green rainforest, and you learn about this special place from your Aboriginal guide.
Aboriginal Plant Uses and Story Places: As you traverse the river, you start to understand the complexity of Aboriginal belief systems and how sites have memories and meanings. You learn that spirituality, law, land, social life and care for country are all interconnected. With your guide you to stop to observe significant plants: trees and plants and vines all have a special name and use. Animals such as fish and birds also had significance when they appeared. Your guide also explains the cultural story places of the Jirrbal Aboriginal people, and you learn how they looked to nature for cues on how and when to conduct their daily activities, such as gathering food, preparing for cyclones, and migration. Halfway through your group journey, your stop for a swim and a treat of billy tea and damper (homemade bush bread).
Accommodation: Tully Valley Cabins
Included: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner
Day 4: Aboriginal Culture & Art, Waterfalls and Crater Lake
Aboriginal Culture & Art: The communities of Mission Beach, Tully and Cardwell are the only area in Australia where Aboriginal people lived permanently in the rainforest. Boomerangs were cut from the massive buttresses of rainforest trees, and today you are given a boomerang on which to paint. First you are given an overview on painting from a local indigenous perspective. Then one of your Aboriginal hosts recounts a story of historical significance and you have the chance to express this story through your art.
Famous Falls: Millaa Millaa (meaning "plenty of water" in the local aboriginal language) is the icon of tropical north Queensland and one of the most photographed natural sites in the region. The waterfall flows over pure basalt rock thousands of years old in a dramatic burst. There is a fantastic swimming hole at the base of the falls, and you can climb on the peculiar columnar basalt for a unique perspective of the falls from behind.
Giant Trees & Crater Lake: You pay tribute to a local high-profile resident – a massive curtain fig tree, and learn how these giants straight out of Lord of the Rings eerily "strangle" their hosts. You also walk Crater Lakes National Park, where an ancient volcanic crater—or maar—is now protected in a national park. You learn about the rainbow fish that mysteriously appeared in the lake with no streams running to it, and you look for the friendly resident turtles. A track around the lake passes through several different rainforest communities, offering you an opportunity to glimpse some of the area's endemic species. You return to Cairns tonight.
Accommodation: Cairns Budget Accommodation
Included: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner
Day 5: Mossman Gorge, Daintree Rainforest and Aboriginal-Guided Hunting & Tracking
Aboriginal Guided Rainforest Walk: Today you discover the Daintree Rainforest at Mossman Gorge, an area important to the Kuku Yalanji. Beginning with a traditional smoking ceremony, you wander rainforest paths, discovering with your guide how these Aboriginal people found their way through dense rainforest, made shelter and learned which native plants were tasty to eat. As your guide shares his stories, you learn how the seasons dictated life, what falls under men's and women's "business", how to make fire in the rainforest and how to make fish very easy to catch. While on the walk, you can go for a swim in the sparkling clear water among the boulders, and perhaps paint your faces with traditional ochre rock paint. Your walk finishes with some billy-tea and fresh-made damper with native honey.
Hunting and Food Gathering: Next you walk with two gentle Aboriginal guides of the Kuku Yalanji tribe along the coast they've called home for thousands of years. Brothers Linc and Brandon will teach you to throw a spear and you try your hand at catching food the traditional way — hunting for fish, mud crabs, mussels and other "bush tucker" (food) among the mangroves. For the brothers, their core ethos is related to understanding and sharing the belief that hunting and gathering come with the responsibility of respect for resources and management which they continue today and pass on to others.
Cooking What You've Caught: Later you are invited to your indigenous guide's home where you meet the family, hear tales of the native "Dreamtime" and feast on what you've caught. This is an authentic interaction with Aboriginal people that allows you to see how indigenous traditions are integrated into the modern world.
Accommodation: Cairns Budget Accommodation
Included: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner
Day 6: Free Time, OPTIONAL Urban Challenge and Depart OR Add Didgeridoo Making with an Aboriginal Family

Question 1: Do I need a visa to visit Australia?
Answer: All visitors to Australia need a visa, with the exception of visitors from New Zealand. In some countries a visa is easily obtained by the travel agent who issues your ticket, and should be free of charge. For more information on getting a visa, please see: Australian Visas. All visitors will also need a passport, valid for at least six months after the planned return date.
Question 2: How do we arrange airfare?
Answer: We do not arrange airfare in house, however we do work closely with a couple of travel agents who would be happy to help: In Australia, we recommend Kim Salter, our Melbourne-based travel agent. Contact Kim at firstname.lastname@example.com or call + 61 0433 324 455 or toll free within Australia 1 300 640 821. In the US, we recommend: Sandra Marron at Millennium Travel California. You can contact Sandra at firstname.lastname@example.com or call 1-415-898- 7974.
Question 3: What happens when we arrive at the airport?
Answer: You will be met by a Small World Journeys staff member who will give you an orientation and then accompany you to your accommodation.
Question 4: When is the best time to visit Cairns and the Great Barrier Reef?
Answer: Cairns is a tropical place, and outdoor activities can be enjoyed year-round. In our summer (December-February), the weather is at its warmest and wettest. You can expect hot days with occasional tropical storms, producing lush green hillsides and plenty of waterfalls. Average temperatures are 23-31 degrees Celsius/73-87 Fahrenheit. In our winter (June-August), the climate is at its most mild, with warm days, cool nights, and little rainfall. Average temperatures are 18-26 degrees Celsius/64-78 degrees Fahrenheit. Autumn (March - May) brings unpredictable weather - it can be warm and rainy or hot and sunny. Springtime (September - November) is the most predicable, and days tend to be warm to hot with little rainfall. The visbility at the Great Barrier Reef is at its best September - November, but can be enjoyed year-round. Come June - September for seasonal whale watching.
Question 5: Do we need to worry about jellyfish?
Answer: The box jellyfish are present in the northern coastal waters from November to April/May. The jellyfish are found close to shore—they breed in estuaries and very very rarely can they make it to the outer Great Barrier Reef. Most of the swimming beaches have "stinger nets" up during this season so people can swim. However, the tiny Irukandji jellyfish has been known on occasion to slip through the nets, and this is most often where people have been stung. It is a very painful sting, but there have been only 2 confirmed deaths in Australia due to the Irukandji jellyfish. The good news is that the jellyfish are rarely found at the outer Great Barrier Reef, where you will be snorkeling and/or diving. Most people swim on the reef without using any protection. According to the CRC Reef Research Centre, "In offshore waters around coral reefs, box jellyfish that cause Irukandji syndrome are usually well dispersed and the incidence of stings is very small." Nonetheless, reef operators have "stinger suits" as well as wetsuits as an extra precaution.
Question 6: What happens if a student cancels?
Answer: If an individual student cancels from a trip within 30 days of the trip departure, no refunds are given. For this reason, we strongly encourage all parents to purchase trip cancellation insurance in order to protect against unforeseen circumstances which are the main cause for student cancellations. For more details, please see our Terms & Conditions.
Question 7: What is your safety record?
Answer: Our safety record is outstanding. Please ask us for teacher/supervisor references specifically regarding our safety measures and practices. We do risk assessments for every excursion we run. We carry a first aid kit in our vehicles, as well as on the guide's person when in remote areas. All guides are certified in first aid and CPR. We give every student a card with emergency numbers and safety information on it to carry, and we review safety measures as part of our orientation. Safety is absolutely our number one concern at all times. We do everything in our power to make sure each trip is as safe as it can possibly be.
Question 8: Do you do risk assessments?
Answer: Yes. We evaluate and re-evaluate the safety of each of our destinations and activities, and we always reserve the right to modify or cancel an itinerary if the guide feels that conditions are unsafe. We will gladly provide a risk management assessment specific to your trip on request. Small World Journeys' staff also adhere to a comprehensive Risk Management Strategy.
Question 9: Why should we purchase travel insurance?
Answer: We strongly recommend the purchase of travel insurance for your protection. Should a participant need to cancel their trip for any reason, our cancellation policy applies. However, travel insurance protects any loss they may experience should s/he or an immediate family member become ill or sustain an injury that prevents them from going on the trip.
Question 10: What makes Small World Journeys "eco-friendly"?
Answer: An eco tour, in our opinion, is a trip in which everyone benefits: the community, the environment, you and us. Simply by joining one of our trips, you will be supporting carbon offsetting, Rainforest Rescue's Adopt-A-Square initiative, aboriginal cultural ventures and locally-owned businesses who are working towards a more sustainable future in tourism. As our guest, you are supporting us as well. Thank you! For more information, see 10 Reasons Why We're Eco.

This includes supporting farmers by purchasing locally-grown fruits and vegetables for you on your trip. We also give you a list of where to buy locally-made crafts and souvenirs so you can continue this support as well.
SUPPORTING LOCAL HOMELESS & NEEDY PEOPLE: We make both financial and in-kind donations to Rosie's Friends on The Street, a Cairns-based charity. Rosie's seeks to provide homeless people and people living rough a hot meal, conversation and a non-judgemental human connection. Small World Journeys' staff also volunteer on Rosie's outreach nights, and many of our students have made comfort packs for Rosie's patrons!

"The girls loved staying with the aboriginal family and crafting their didgeridoos (and learning about them). The variety of experiences and cultural information was terrific. We learned so much! Small World Journeys guide Matt was terrific – very friendly and knowledgeable. He clearly wanted to make sure we all had a great experience, and was good with the girls – answering questions, pointing out interesting things, and providing anything we needed. Healthy food options were provided, and the various locales were all ecologically interesting. Very satisfied - this was an amazing trip and great experience"

text: Last week, Harold Ford Jr. baffled the reasonably literate readers of The Huffington Post Web site with a somewhat confusing and seemingly contradictory editorial about the funeral of Coretta Scott King. Like all believers in the power of nonviolence to achieve social change and justice, I mourned the loss of Coretta Scott King, Ford wrote. He continued, Funerals should not be ceremonies to fabricate a lifes works. They are a time to celebrate with honesty and dignity a womans life. Were not entirely sure what fabrication he was referring to, but we are sure that Ford a congressman who voted for the war with Iraq called himself a believer in nonviolence.

What Are the Average Dimensions of the [email protected]@?
Even though the majority of the female population don't discuss it often, many women are concerned about the size of their vagina.
The size and shape of the vagina vary in each individual, and they have never been subjected to an intensive research to the same extent as the male genitalia.
Nevertheless, a recent research, which examined more than 200 women, has managed to establish the average dimensions of the vagina.
Just like the rest of the human anatomy, there is a great variation when it comes to the size of the clitoris.
According to the findings of the research, the average clitoral width is 0.8 centimeters while the average clitoral length is 1.6 centimeters.
The width of the participants' clitoris ranged from 0.2 to 2.5 centimeters, and the length of the clitoris ranged from 0.4 to 4.0 centimeters.
Labia Minora
The labia minora are the smaller, inner lips which surround the vaginal opening. According to the research, the labia minora come in very different lengths in every woman.
The findings of the research showed that the two sides of the inner labia are not of the same size. The average size of the left labia minora is 2.1 centimeters wide while the right is 1.9 centimeters wide.
Moreover, on average, the left labia is 4.0 centimeters long and the right one is 3.8 centimeters long.
Labia Majora
The labia majora, also known as the outer lips, are the parentheses around the labia minora. Both of the outer lips have an average length of 8.1 centimeters, which is about the size of a nail polish bottle.
Nevertheless, the research found out that they have a range of 4.0 to 11.5 centimeters. The size of both the inner and the outer lips is not related to the size of the vagina.
And, what is interesting is that as you get older, the labia minora and the labia majora become smaller.
Vaginal Canal
The average length of the vaginal canal is 9.6 centimeters, and the range is from 6.5 to 12.5 centimeters. As for the width, the range is from 2.1 to 3.5 centimeters.
Only two women, who participated in the research, had a vaginal canal width of 2.1 centimeters. The two of them were sexually active, and both of them experienced pain during an intercourse.
So, unless you notice any pain during sex or an incapacity to use tampons, you probably fall into the normal range for the width and length of the vaginal canal.

Hey -- I'm going camping for a couple of nights and I'm delighted to cook on the fire again. It's been a couple of years since I've done this so I would like to check in on cooking times and ideas... or maybe I'm forgetting something that is *especially delicious* when cooked this way?
I am very SIMPLE when cooking on the campfire. I will double-wrap everything in foil, season with olive oil and salt and pepper, and cook on the coals. I don't use a camping stove or a grate -- everything right on the coals.
Here's what I am thinking:
*for protein -- chicken sausage or sweet or hot Italian sausage from a good deli (probably cooked on sticks or maybe sliced in foil? which would be better?)
*baby red potatoes seasoned with rosemary, S and P (with sour cream YUM)
*plum tomatoes (maybe with some fresh basil after they're done)
*red onions
*corn on the cob (shucked first, dotted with butter and salt and pepper)
*some yummy bread, also grilled and then dipped in the grilled tomatoes which get all sauce-y YUM
*Maybe portabella mushrooms? I have not done this before but spotted a recipe that looks great with these -- marinate a little while, grill in foil, melt some cheese in top, maybe spoon on some of the grilled tomatoes
*For dessert: sliced peaches grilled in the foil packets with cinnamon, butter, sugar
Cooking Times: I think the onions go into the fire first (big ones -- into fire for about 50 mins?), then the baby potatoes (35 mins?), then tomatoes and corn take about the same cooking time (25 minutes?) and finally the bread, sausages, and mushrooms for the last 15 minutes or so.
Is it better to spear the sausages on sticks, or to slice and cook them in a packet??
thanks! Can't wait...

10 Tweets That Sum Up Just How "England" It Was To Lose A 2-0 Lead Over Spain
The year everything but our football team changed
Most Popular
It's never really a friendly when you're playing Spain, especially when your form has been as poor as the England team this year. The squad is in desperate need of pride and redemption.
And after Adam Lallana and Jamie Vardy knocked in goals, the team currently managed by Gareth Southgate were 2-0 up. Happy days, and a mark of intent for a new era.
Then they conceded 2 goals in the last few minutes. Classic us eh? Here's how Twitter reacted...

He expressed hope that once his party comes to power in Pakistan, people will be able to drive down to Delhi from Lahore without any barriers.
"Fanaticism in Pakistan is at its peak now"
Nawaz Sharif is not able to 'go fast' on improving ties with India because of the pressure from fanatical elements.
Fanaticism in Pakistan is at its peak now, Khan observed. But once US troops exit from Afghanistan, the power of fanatics in Pak will wane, he said.
In order to bring stability to Afghanistan after the US exit from there in 2014, India and Pakistan will have to cooperate and not interfere in the functioning of the government in Kabul, Imran Khan said.
He brushed aside rumours that ties between India and Pakistan would wane if BJP comes to power post-2014. "Who comes to power is not the business of Pakistan, it is for the people of India to decide. All I want is a strong leadership, the ability of taking strong decisions," Khan said.
Pakistani youth want cordial ties with India; so favourable atmosphere for bilateral trust should be restored between the two countries, he said.
Once Kashmir issue is resolved through talks, India-Pak will have a cordial relationship, Khan said.

ASU strengthens foreign connections
Mon, 02 Apr 2012 00:35:08 GMT —
Albany State University professors are reaching out to African dignitaries in hopes of strengthening its foreign exchange program.
The school's department of History and Political Science hosted a group of African women through the Department of State's International Visitor Leadership Program.
During the visit, the dignitaries were able to learn about American culture by exploring the role of the woman in education and politics.
Albany State University students often have a chance to study in Africa, but professors are hoping this networking makes it possible for African students to study in Albany.
"We are hoping that they will be bringing their own students here to have classes which in a way will encourage understanding among nations and peace will be encouraged for the world," says Dr. Babafemi Elufiede, ASU Chairman of the Department of History, Political Science and Public Administration.
He says ASU students have had the chance to study in Nigeria and Kenya.

BILLY BOB THORNTON wrote, directed and starred in Sling Blade in 1996 which
won him an Oscar for best adapted screenplay.
It established Billy Bob – who was married to Angelina Jolie from 2000 to
2003 – as a major talent.
Billy Bob, 58, stars in Parkland which is about the murder of John F
Kennedy and is set for release on November 22, the 50th anniversary of his
Here he tells GARTH PEARCE what he wishes he had known at 18.
"I WAS 18 when my dad, Billy Ray, died. Otherwise, he might have given me
advice on not getting married too young.
It happens a lot in the American south. I got drunk one night, went bowling
and ended up married.
My wife, Melissa, was a very nice woman. We had a daughter, Amanda, (now aged
34) who works alongside her in Arkansas.
I should not have married and become a father so young.
It is not fair on your wife and kid, because I still had so much to do.
And perhaps I never did learn the lesson on marriage since I've been married
and divorced five times. Marriage is not easy. If the guy is, say, a plumber
and his wife works at a flower shop, both working 9am to 5pm and seeing each
other every day, those marriages are hard enough.
But being on the road, away from home, makes it more difficult.
If you are an actor, even doing a Disney movie or cartoon voices, you could
still be away from each other for six months.
Look how it applied to me. I go away and do a film like Monster's Ball (2001)
with a very explicit sex scene with Halle Berry. She is one of the most
beautiful women in the world and I am talking on the phone to my wife,
(Angelina) and she says: "What have you been doing today?"
And I say: "Oh, I did that sex scene with Halle Berry." You are then asked if
you actually touch her. I say: "I had to — it's in the scene."
Go back to that guy who is a plumber and he asks what his wife did for lunch.
She says: "I went out with Harold." He says: "Who's he?" She says: "The guy
who puts flowers in the pots."
See? That's already hard, with areas of doubt. But if you are a thousand miles
from home on a film set simulating sex with a beautiful woman, it's even
I blew my marriage to Angelina. I thought I was not good enough for her and I
was too insecure. We are still friends.
Another marriage for me? (He has been with partner Connie Angland for ten
years and they have a seven-year-old daughter, Bella). I am not saying I
will and I am not saying I won't. It's funny that people talk so much about
me marrying five times. But if an actor who is known as a playboy goes out
and screws every girl who walks in to a bar, then that's OK. That's hip.
To be married five times is treated as a bizarre subject. But at least I was
I was just 25 when I moved to Los Angeles, trying to make it as an actor.
I arrived on June 9, 1981, with my friend, Tom Epperson, who wanted to be a
screenwriter. We stayed at first in one of those motels which are so cheap
and run-down they rent rooms by the hour for couples to have sex.
I then cashed in my pension from the Arkansas Highway Department, where I'd
worked, used that as a down payment on a rented apartment and got a job in a
pizza joint.
I was paid 96 dollars a week while Tom looked for temporary work as a teacher.
He was a few years older than me, so he got the bed and I slept on the floor.
Our weekly treat on a Friday was a box of powdered donuts and a bottle of
cheap rum.
I was allowed one pizza a day for free, so waited until each evening and
shared it with Tom (Billy Bob and Tom co-wrote The Gift in 2000, which
starred Cate Blanchett, Hilary Swank and Keanu Reeves).
I lived like that for some years before I got an acting part.
So when I listen to other actors talk about "the work" or a role being "a
risk", I don't know what they are talking about. Real work is not acting.
There are no risks.
I'd done jobs like mending roads and driving trucks. So I had nothing better
to fall back on had acting not worked.
I would say that there is one thing I'm glad I did not know at 18 — how tough
it would be to make it. Ignorance made me carry on.
My reputation in the film industry? I don't have a clue. All I know is that
I'm honest and they can take it or leave it.
I do not go around kissing a**. That goes for movie people, studios and
As for fans, I love 'em. I remember what it was like to be a fan, when
Hollywood was a dream.
I will talk to people all day long. They can take my picture. I don't care.
Compared to my life at 18, I'm living a fantasy."

As I've mentioned before, the new work hours are putting some major hurt on my creativity. Sliding into bed at 645 in the morning (or later) just runs roughshod over any kind of real life scheduling.
Which means I'm looking for inspiration, and +Dyson Logos has inspiration in spades.
On the chance you don't already know, Dyson has a Patreon campaign where, if enough money is raised each month, the maps that he draws and posts on his blog are released for free to be used personally or commercially. Here's the link to the free maps. Heck, you don't even need to be a backer to benefit from this but the more backers the more maps potentially released into the gaming wilds.
Anyhow, here's two that I'm currently looking at to inspire some of those drowsy braincells...
This would be just the right size to kick off a dungeon, and the river might even lead the players elsewhere.
Plenty of time for me to work on this but the fact that i want to work on this is pleasantly surprising. I may be awaking the inner muse ;)

Kellan Lutz
"I'm not a calorie counter by any means, and I don't run. I despise running," says Kellan Lutz, 25 (on vacation in St. Maarten in April). He does, however, pump some serious iron to get his body looking like that. Oh, and he has a few more tricks he's willing to share: "I cut back on my candy intake, swim a lot and try to drink as much water as I can. That's the best way to cut up."
Charlie Bewley
Turns out the British Bewley, 29, who plays a Volturi, has a strange signature trait he looks for in women. "There is one physical feature," he says. "That they have a disproportionately large head."
Alex Meraz
Meraz, 25, has a philosophy about all the shirtless time he clocks in Twilight as a wolf: "It's like a costume. You wear it and you own it. You can't be intimidated about your body."
Chaske Spencer
To maintain his on-set energy, wolf pack member Spencer, 35, would "watch films like Lethal Weapon," he says. "It would keep the testosterone going."
Jackson Rathbone
"I've always experimented with different looks," says Rathbone, 25, who plays the quick-tempered Jasper in Eclipse. "That's why I guess I'm a character actor."

Review for Tom Williams Collision Center
Lon S. on 11/08/2012
Lon said the process was a bit lengthy, but they did a really good job. He said the work took 10 weeks, which was about a month longer than promised. They told him they were busy. He suggested that in the future this business should offer some assistance on rental vehicles. He was kept informed, but because they were busy he had to call them. He said his estimator, Diane did an extremely good job with what she had to work with. He would recommend this business, but there are two others in Birmingham and C and M is a lot cheaper and quicker and the other businesses are equally as good as this one. He said he chose this business because he purchased his vehicle from their affliated dealership and he lives in the Mountan Brook area. He said this business is enormously busy.

Daily briefs of the top news stories impacting Christians around the world. In today's edition:
Presbyterian Church Elects Non-traditionalist Leader
'Global Prayer Call' Targets Hand-Over of Power in Iraq
China: Arrest Of 100 House Church Leaders Confirms Trend
New Evangelical Group Hope for 'Profound Impact'
Presbyterian Church Elects Non-traditionalist Leader
Jenni Parker, Agape Press
The Presbyterian Church USA has elected lay-leader and activist Rick Ufford-Chase as the mainline denomination's head and spokesman for the next two years, despite his association with a group that is seeking to change the church's ordination standards. According to an Associated Press report, the 40-year-old elder of a Tucson, Arizona, congregation was installed at the PCUSA's 216th General Assembly Saturday in Richmond, Virginia, as its new moderator. The moderator presides over the assembly and acts as the denomination's chief spokesperson until another moderator is chosen at the next General Assembly. Ufford-Chase's church is affiliated with More Light Presbyterians, a group that has been working to remove the PCUSA's requirement that church officers "live either in fidelity within the covenant of marriage between a man and a woman, or chastity in singleness." The More Light Presbyterians are also seeking to nullify a church law that prohibits the ordination of self-avowed practicing homosexuals. In response to questions about how his allies will react to Ufford-Chase's pledge not to use his new position to advance the cause of changing these standards, he said his commitment is "to be as absolutely fair as I possibly can, to make sure that everyone gets heard," but when asked his personal opinion, he would share it.
'Global Prayer Call' Targets Hand-Over of Power in Iraq
Charisma News Service
Christians worldwide are being urged to pray for Iraq this week as the Iraqi interim government assumes control of the war-torn country from the U.S.-led occupation. The long-awaited hand over was supposed to happen tomorrow, but the United States formally handed sovereignty to Iraqi officials on Monday, aiming to forestall guerrilla attacks with a secretive ceremony formally ending 14 months of occupation. Meanwhile, intercessory and missions groups are mobilizing believers to intercede for Iraq. International Prayer Council, a worldwide network of prayer movements, has issued a Global Prayer Call relating to the hand over of power. "We feel it is right that we mobilize special prayer ... for the situation in Iraq," British prayer leader Brian Mills said. Operation World is also encouraging Christians to stand in the gap for Iraq during the transition. In Baghdad, a Christian worker is asking Christians to pray. "I asked one Iraqi if there will be big parties in the streets on the 30th," said the worker, referring to the original hand over of power deadline. "She replied that everyone will be happy, but no one will be out in the streets celebrating. Everyone is too afraid."
China: Arrest Of 100 House Church Leaders Confirms Trend
Compass Direct
Chinese police arrested 100 house church leaders on June 11 as they gathered for a retreat in the central city of Wuhan. Xing Jinfu, 39, who has already been arrested three times in the past for church related activities, was among those detained. The church leaders are being held at an unknown location, according to the China Aid Association. On the same day, Shen Xianfeng, a senior leader of the China Gospel Fellowship (CGF), was placed under house arrest. Reports of increasing arrests of house church leaders began to filter out of China in April, when the New York-based Committee for Investigation on Persecution of Religion in China reported that Xu Shuangfu of the controversial Three Grades Servants movement was kidnapped in the northeastern province of Heilongjiang. The mass arrest of CGF leaders confirms the belief of many Christians that the Chinese Communist Party apparently has not changed its repressive religious policies under the leadership of President Hu Jintao.
New Evangelical Group Hope for 'Profound Impact'
Jody Brown, Agape Press
Several high-profile evangelical leaders are behind the formation of a new group whose focus is to identify, educate, and activate Christians and religious conservatives in America. Americans of Faith announced last week its plan to "make the voice of evangelical Christians and religious conservatives heard." The group has launched a new voter registration effort called "Operation Vote" that it says will emphasize the fact that Christians not only have the right vote, but the duty as well. "We are going to make sure that every Christian and religious conservative in our nation hears that message this year," says Jack St. Martin, executive director of Americans of Faith. Saying the group's goal is to have a "profound impact" on American society and culture, St. Martin explains the group hopes to make individuals "good citizens, reliable neighbors, and responsible stewards of our nation's blessings." Others involved in the leadership of the new organization include Tony Perkins (president of the Family Research Council), Ed Atsinger (president and CEO of Salem Communications), Dr. Richard Land (president of the Southern Baptist Convention's Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission), and Frank Wright (president of the National Religious Broadcasters). Founder Jay Sekulow has been quoted in press reports as saying Americans of Faith expects to register five-million "social, Christian conservatives" to vote in the upcoming presidential election.

This non-fiction classic is a collection of letters going between John and Abigail Adams written during the American Revolution. A lengthy introduction by the editor, Frank Shuffleton provides a thorough and interesting introduction to the lives and times of Mr. and Mrs. Adams. The content of the Adams' letters range from, well, the revolutionary to the ordinary.
A good portion of the letters chronicle John and Abigail's daily life – his in participating in the Continental Congress, and hers in raising the children and maintaining the Adams' estate. Separated for long periods of time, the letters provide an in depth look at not only current events, but also the Adams' marriage. Some of my favorite parts were when Abigail would gently chide John for not writing more often, and both parties frequently expressed their distress at the separation. The reader, like the Adams' is plagued by the Revolutionary postal system, or the lack thereof. While the book is arranged chronologically, often several letters would pass before the other party had a chance to respond to a previous letter, making it difficult on the reader. Also making it difficult for a pleasure reader is the system of footnotes. Each letter is individually footnoted, and the reader must continually flip to the back of the book to gain historical reference. A time consuming task, that for me, because more troublesome than it was worth in that it broke up the "story".
My favorite parts of the book often centered on Abigail's political opinions, as her letters gave a unique insight into a woman's perspective. I loved one particular letter in which she clearly expressed her opinion to John about the education of women: "If we mean to have heroes, statesmen, and philosophers, we should have learned women." Abigail was, without a doubt, a woman ahead of her time. I would recommend this book to a Revolutionary War aficionado/history buff, or students looking for an amazing collection of Revolutionary primary source documents.

The story is provided to ExitEvent through a partnership with WRAL TechWire. Both publications are owned by Capitol Broadcasting Co.
By Jason Parker, WRAL TechWire, reporting from Kansas City October 8, 2014
Today, on stage in Kansas City, John Austin who runs the Groundworks Labs' new business accelerator program in Durham, announced that the Triangle beat out more than a dozen other cities to win the bid to host the 2015 UP America Summit, bringing nearly 200 entrepreneurs from the Americas to the Triangle.
"We are pleased and exited to invite you to our community in the Triangle," said Austin at the 2014 UP Summit in Kansas City, "We've got a great story to share with you." The UP America Summit gathers organizers from entrepreneurial communities across North America, providing opportunities for organizers, entrepreneurs, and leaders to learn from one another.
The Triangle will host the organization's third event, held annually. It's part of the UP Global international effort to boost entrepreneurship, which is supported by The Kauffman Foundation, Google for Entrepreneurs, The Case Foundation, Coca-Cola and others.
"The Triangle is a perfect fit for the UP America Summit," said Ari Kern, Southeast Regional Manager of UP Global, "I've been very impressed with how cohesive and collaborative the community is, especially given the geographic diversity across multiple cities.
"The Triangle has a lot of incredibly strong entrepreneurial leaders, and new people continue to step up and take ownership over the community's programs, initiatives and events."
Here in Kansas City, there's a buzz in the room about visiting the Triangle next year.
"It is wonderful to see how the Triangle region is able to provide all the ingredients for a vibrant startup ecosystem—a perfect fit for next year's UP Global Summit, "said Roman Kern, Director of Systems and Operations at MassChallenge, a Boston-based accelerator. "I am pumped to be part of it, and look forward to great sessions and discussions with inspiring local entrepreneurs and community leaders."

45 Prospects in 45 Days: Houston's Mark Appel
Reporting on prospects is a somewhat dicey proposition for a self-appointed sabermetrician. The big league game is dependent upon numbers while the prospect world is dependent on scouting reports and first person accounting. So, when I report on prospects I often report of what others have said about the player. This makes life difficult because most prospects have their defenders and their detractors and Mark Appel is no different. Appel already caused waves when he became the only first round pick not to sign in 2012. The Pittsburgh Pirates selected him eighth overall and did not have enough in there entire bonus pool to give him the contract he was looking for.
Returning to Stanford for his senior season ended up working in his favor. Appel worked on his game and ended up increasing his strikeout rate in the process. That silenced some of his critics as those critics had been wondering why Appel wasn't more dominant than he was. After all, somone that would end up being the number one overall pick should be blowing through collegiate batting orders quite easily. His defenders would point out that the PAC-12 is one of the more competitive conferences in college baseball.
Jonathan Mayo of MLB.com has Appel rated as the Astros fourth best prospect overall and their best pitching prospect. He rates as Mayo's 25th best prospect in all of baseball. Mayo says Appel is a "complete package as a pitcher, combining stuff, size, and pitchability." If we translate that into plain English it says that Appel is already a polished pitcher that has a chance to move through the Astros chain rather quickly. While he may not have the upside that Jonathan Gray does, he probably has a better chance of having a solid big league career.
The Astros system is a lot deeper than it used to be. ESPN.com has the Astros system ranked number one overall. Not all professional scouts agree as Jason Parks of baseballprospectus.com had them number nine overall last year. Either way, they are good enough to where they don't have to rush Appel. He mixes a fastball that sits in the mid-90s with a solid slider and changeup. None of the offerings are what you would call electric, but they are all good pitches that will likely succeed at the big league level. Everyone in the minors can hit a mid 90s fastball, so Appel will likely have some outings where he looks rather ordinary. The question is how he will battle through those outings.
The good news is that Appel issued only two walks per nine innings in limited duty last season. His combined FIP was also under 3.00. That and a couple of bucks will buy you a cup of coffee. 38 minor league innings aren't enough to base anything on. The Astros front office has been non-commital about their plans with Appel this season. If he blows everyone away in Spring Training he could end up opening the season in Corpus Christi and coming up to the big leagues around the all-star break. If he shows some signs of struggle he could start in Lancaster and spend the year on the farm. It's really hard to say what to expect from Appel as a fantasy owner this season. Personally, I think a September call up is an outside possibility, but the Astros have enough minor league arms ahead of Appel that they don't have to start the arbitration clock in 2014.

Dani Alves scored the opening goal of the game in the 36th minute as the visitors looked good value for the lead at halftime, yet Radamel Falcao grabbed a leveler four minutes after the restart.
Messi came to the rescue in the 81st minute with a stunning free kick to give Barca all three points against its unfortunate opponent, which competed well throughout.
Barcelona looked lively in the opening stages and thought it had opened the scoring in the eighth minute, only for the effort to be disallowed.
Lionel Messi controlled Alexis Sanchez' pass before bypassing two Atletico defenders and pushing the ball past Thibaut Courtois. However, the Argentine was ruled to have used his hand to control the ball in the build-up, earning himself a yellow card in the process - his fifth this season, meaning he will miss the side's game against Sporting next weekend.
The reigning Liga champion came close again on 20 minutes through a well taken set piece. Xavi stepped up to curl a free kick 25 yards from goal, but the Atleti goalkeeper was on hand to make a strong acrobatic save to deny the away team the opener.
Both teams were difficult to separate in the first period, yet the visiting side did take the lead in the 36th minute after a smart team move. Dani Alves linked up well with Messi before the attacker slid the ball to Cesc Fabregas to fire across the six yard line, with Alves waiting to score his second league goal of the campaign.
However, two minutes after taking the lead, Guardiola's men had Victor Valdes to thank for preserving the narrow lead. After some sloppy defensive play by Barcelona, Arda Turan broke into the box before slamming the ball across goal with Radamel Falcao lurking, yet Valdes was sharp enough to intercept it.
Atletico made a superb start to the second period and grabbed an equalizer in the 49th minute. Gabi's corner was unintentionally flicked towards the back post by Sergio Busquets where an unmarked Falcao was waiting to volley home from six yards, his 20th goal this term in all competitions.
Despite not looking anywhere near its best in the second half, the away side did come within inches of retaking the lead on 67 minutes. Alves' inviting cross was narrowly missed by Messi at the front post yet Alexis Sanchez was on cue to head the ball over the bar.
Just when it appeared Barcelona would have to settle for a point, Messi stepped up with a true moment of magic. The Argentine's free kick fooled everyone as it curled into the far corner from 25 meters out with Courtois left rooted to his spot. It was the attacker's 28th Liga goal of the season and arguably his most important.
Next up for Barcelona is a home encounter against Sporting next weekend while Atletico faces a trip to Sevilla, hoping to return to winning ways.

Reflections of the Old City skyline within the new.
Anglesey North Wales, long exposure photography of a clear starry evening.
Christmas Eve and the Chapel was too full …. so a unexpected chance to watch for Father Christmas as he made his way to Anglesey in North Wales, I am sure there were a few lucky folks with new Christmas camera's waiting to get out and photograph on Christmas Day.
A little aerial photography in North Wales looking down or is it up the Llyn Peninsula. Photograph taken at sunset to capture sinking cold mists.
Christmas Rush hour at

Long Exposure photography of car trails past a beautiful historic welsh cottage, waited for ages to see the Christmas lights but they never switched them on……
Haymarket Street in Bury
I hoped to capture in this photograph the essence and absence of the North Wales Slate Miners whose overalls and boots are always ready for work.
Slate mining in North Wales required a full team of men not only to mine but to look after and build new equipment and supports and overall to be back up the the men underground. I was quite taken with the tool desk (that is on wheels) I have noticed more recently that it must have been "the" mobile joinery and mechanical equipment of the day as I have seen it in the Lancashire and Yorkshire Mills that I have seen since.
Photographers just love rust and I am sorry but I thought that this was great.
Bangor Pier or Garth Pier was designed by J. Webster to be constructed of a wooden deck on cast iron columns and was opened on 14th May 1896.
The pier was the place to visit, steamers from Liverpool, Blackpool and Douglas transported tourists to marvel this new 470ft pier.
In 1971 the pier was closed due its decline and at one point looked to be demolished but was rescued. restored and re-opened to the public in 1988.
Bangor pier is regarded to be one the finest of the three remaining grade II listed piers in the Britain.

Nearly every Republican in the House has signed the pledge, which leaves no wiggle room for lawmakers to support any legislation that raises the net level of taxation.
The issue of raising taxes has been a sticking point for Republicans both during the debt-ceiling negotiations and as the deadline approaches for the supercommittee to reach a $1.2 trillion deficit-reduction deal.
Gowdy joins a growing number of GOP members who are trying to distance themselves from the pledge. Some House Republicans recently told The Hill that they want their name taken off Norquist's list.
"I haven't signed it since 1994," Rep. Steven LaTourette (R-Ohio) said.
Others who are listed as signers said they specifically refused to sign the pledge during their most recent campaigns.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) has blasted Republicans for signing a document that Democrats say impedes negotiations.
"Who do they fear?" asked Reid, speaking of Senate Republicans. "The truth is they are terrified to violate the infamous Grover Norquist tax pledge even though they know Norquist is wrong — or if they don't know, they should know."
