Hillary Clinton Distances Herself from Hillary Clinton
Hillary Clinton has been doing her best to put distance between herself and Barack Hussein Obama's failures. Now, she distancing herself from one of her own.
Hillary thought her Russian reset was a good idea.

Americans Disagree with Democrats on Immigration Reform
When Americans say that they favor immigration reform, they mean deportation.
Most voters don't want any of the young illegal immigrants who've recently arrived here housed in their state and say any legislation passed by Congress to deal with the problem should focus on sending them home as soon as possible.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 59% of Likely U.S. Voters believe the primary focus of any new immigration legislation passed by Congress should be to send the young illegal immigrants back home as quickly as possible. Just 27% say it should focus instead on making it easier for these illegal immigrants to remain in the United States. Fourteen percent (14%) are undecided.

Afghanistan's Culture of Pedophilia
Boning little boys for Allah.
Western forces fighting in southern Afghanistan had a problem. Too often, soldiers on patrol passed an older man walking hand-in-hand with a pretty young boy. Their behavior suggested he was not the boy's father. Then, British soldiers found that young Afghan men were actually trying to "touch and fondle them," military investigator AnnaMaria Cardinalli told me. "The soldiers didn't understand."
All of this was so disconcerting that the Defense Department hired Cardinalli, a social scientist, to examine this mystery. Her report, "Pashtun Sexuality," startled not even one Afghan. But Western forces were shocked - and repulsed.
For centuries, Afghan men have taken boys, roughly 9 to 15 years old, as lovers. Some research suggests that half the Pashtun tribal members in Kandahar and other southern towns are bacha baz, the term for an older man with a boy lover. Literally it means "boy player." The men like to boast about it.
"You fucking Jews. It's all about the money, isn't it."
The humor of Bill Clinton.
Clinton—"always eager to please"— told his embarrassed audience a joke that began: "These two old Jews are walking down the street."
"As the joke begins, everyone around the table looks dubious," Halper writes. "Where is he going with this? Surely the former president of the United States is not about to tell an anti-Semitic story in front of people he hardly knows. This, of course, is exactly what he does, according to a number of people present."
Briefly, the joke has the two Jewish codgers walking by a Catholic church, where a sign out front offers $100 to converts. One of the Jews, named Abe, agrees to convert and give half the proceeds to his friend. Abe meets with the priests, learns the traditions of the church, is declared a Catholic, and collects his reward.
"Hey! Look at the new Catholic here," Abe's friend says. "You got my money?"
To which Abe retorts: "You fucking Jews. It's all about the money, isn't it."
Halper writes: "As the former president laughs, the others offer weak smiles. No one wants to offend him."

At Last, Truth Comes to Washington
Paul Pierce is taking his talents to Landover, MD.
Pierce, 36, the sweet-shooting small forward known as the Truth, was one of the few Nets players to live up to expectations.But in the early hours Sunday, Pierce walked away from a Nets team in disarray, agreeing to terms on a two-year, $11 million contract with the Washington Wizards, according to a person briefed on the negotiations.While the deal had not been announced officially, Pierce all but confirmed it on Twitter. Making a reference to John Wall, Washington's All-Star point guard, Pierce wrote, "Obama, J Wall here I come."

[tw: food-related anxiety]
That I have no choice but to listen to my surrounding coworkers discuss diets and "oh I can't have this or that" every single day is probably one of the most infuriating and triggering things in the entire fucking world.
What others choose to eat or not eat is none of my concern. I literally could not give a shit less about your fruitless, sugarless diet or your sudden drop in weight loss as a reward for abstaining from indulgence. But you make it my concern when you proclaim these aspects of your eating habits out loud with pride while I sit gobbling down some processed food I was forced to grab in haste on my way into the office.
I wonder if people are capable of trying to comprehend a reality wherein personal control and choice regarding food consumption is a privilege - that for some, this privilege is especially hard to come by.
My reality involves mostly-empty cupboards and no one to lean on but myself. It involves sitting for hours on end, trying to will myself to get in the car and drive to the grocery store to buy nutritious foods for the week. In the event that I actually make it out the door, half the time my anxiety and fear of the kind of judgement that comes with fat visibility while food shopping won't allow me to leave the driveway and I'll returning to my kitchen to comb through my cupboards, making do with what I have at hand - pasta, ramen, soup, frozen food - the things that keep. Or nothing.
In the event that I do leave the driveway, my fear will guide me into a drive-thru in order to avoid human interaction. My anxiety takes advantage of impulse. I think "here is an easy way to sustain myself that doesn't involve being subjected to the gaze of others" and cease it automatically. It isn't until after I'm home, hating the food I'm eating with ever fiber of my being, that the guilt sets in.
During the times I finally make it to the grocery store, I make a beeline to the essentials. A lifetime of food-shopping experience as a fat person tells me that making eye contact with anyone could warrant unwanted and judgmental comments from other shoppers, so I keep my head down and my eyes on the prices. I struggle to keep from looking at labels and numbers, calories and sugar content, in an attempt to restrain the damaging diet mentality I've tried so hard to overcome.
I aim to shop for the week but end up shopping for only a handful of days, rushing myself through self-checkout before I can consider anything too carefully. Any more than a small basket full of food means going through the check out line with an actual person scanning my food choices who may feel entitled enough to make comments on my purchases as they fly past. "Oh these are so good, I wish I could eat them but I've been watching my figure." "Look at all this food! Having a party?" "Ice cream and wine? Gee, you must be having a hard week."
My shopping experiences are never fulfilling. I rarely leave with what I wanted to get.
I record my eating habits, but not like a used to - not as a method of punishment to be sure I'm keeping to arbitrary restrictions, but as a reminder to myself that on the whole, the food I eat is varied. That while I sometimes default to quick food fixes to appease my anxieties, the times I don't are enough to create a nutritional balance that pleases me. Because I am doing the best I can with what I have.
By all means, enjoy the pride you feel in your personal food choices and physical changes. I wish you happiness in your diet - a happiness that I never had the privilege of experiencing, that instead mixed with my mental illness in a way that would have surely destroyed me had I not found the strength to fight against it. But my experience is not yours and I respect your right to restrict your eating habits and keep track of your weight. Honestly, I do.
Just please, please - Shut the FUCK up about it.
When it comes to regulating weight…
We can acknowledge.
The food angle is dead.
Give it a rest now, people.
Food is for eating, not for regulating your size.
"Let me make this clear… if you see someone in the grocery store buying things with food stamps, it is NOT YOUR BUSINESS or place to look into their cart, to judge what they are buying. SO WHAT if they are buying soda? They may have a sick kid at home who can't keep anything else down right now. SO WHAT if they are buying ready-prepared foods? You don't know if they have access to a stove or not. SO WHAT if they spend all their food stamp money on chips? When it's gone, it's gone. The place to fix those problems is in voluntary education. Which I do all the time, teaching people how to cook. There were times on food stamps where I bought treats with food stamps. Do you really begrudge a mom the ability to buy her kid an ice cream once in a while? Pizza? If I managed my food stamp money so that we had a little extra to buy a take and bake pizza…. GOOD FOR ME. Sometimes we ate really cheap food or mooched off my parents for a while so there would be a little extra so I could buy the makings of a cake for my kid for her birthday. The point is that people think of it as "abuse" to buy foods they would not buy themselves or which are not healthy with food stamps. What it is? Is none of their business."
Okay, show of hands-
How many people by now have no idea that eating more fruits and vegetables, lean protein, and drinking plenty of (unpolluted) water is better for you than processed food?
I know it. Everyone knows it.
What these arrogant shits who keep aiming to "teach low income people" is not something we don't know.
If you want to "teach" me something about food then teach me how to make $30 a week for three people stretch without processed meals.
Or how about you stop assuming we are ignorant of the fact that fresh foods are better for us than hamburger helper and look at the root of WHY we have to buy the shit.
Once again, it's just easier to assume ignorance and laziness than it is to apply any critical thinking or empathy.
Reblogging myself because…hey! Neat!
(Source: creativeconflagration, via creativeconflagration)
Using exercise as a form of penance for "over-indulging"…
This way of thinking never sits well with me and is honestly part of the reason why I have such a fucked up relationship with exercise.
I would rather take pleasure in what I eat and enjoy the way I move my body without associating it with guilt or punishment for not "behaving" and eating one too many of these beautiful pastries.
(It is a Mexican Concha and it was nearly the size of my head before I consumed every bit of it for breakfast this morning.)
Please, just eat what makes you happy. Move when it pleases you. Don't do it to live up to some ideal that is grounded in making you feel guilty about treating yourself. Please. It's not worth punishing yourself over and perpetuating this way of thinking, that "unhealthy behavior" deserves punishment. It doesn't.

LEE COUNTY, Fla. - Investigators say the owner of a meat and seafood company embezzled more than $1 million through food stamp fraud.
Michael Schnatter is accused of paying cash for the cards.
Brand new details, uncovered Tuesday, show in some of the cases the people who sold the electronic benefit transfer cards did so with other people's names on the cards.
According to the report, the fraud involving Schnatter continued for four years, and involved some of his employees as well as sub contractors.
New documents obtained by WINK News show Michael Schnatter the owner of Blue Ribbon Steak and Seafood, racked up transactions of nearly $1,200,000 using EBT cards.
Your tax dollars pay for those cards, which act as food stamps for needy families. Selling them breaks a federal law.
An undercover Lee County Sheriff's Office operation showed Schnatter and some of his employees paid cash for EBT cards, at half of what they were worth.
Then they would swipe the cards to make it look like a transaction for meat and seafood. Only, deputies say no food was ever sold, and the value of the card went right to the business.
Schnatter's arrest report says he would sometimes drive his work truck with an empty cooler while making transactions.
On Monday only WINK News confronted Schnatter about the allegations but he drove away in a work truck.
In the back, there's a sticker saying "We Accept EBT."
During the course of the investigation, deputies went through his trash, and placed a GPS tracking device on his car.
After his arrest, Schnatter admitted he did this to make a profit and was introduced to the scheme through his employees.
When asked what his plan was moving forward he said "I was going to try to stop".
The report says Schnatter would receive 20 percent from each transaction processed through his terminal. It also says a search warrant on his home uncovered more incriminating evidence supporting EBT card fraud.

ment (Bowers et al., 2003). Other factors contributing to worker dissatisfaction include excessive paperwork, frequent patient deaths, combative and uncooperative patients, and inadequate staffing (Cherry et al., 2007). Aides who work in understaffed facilities feel extra time pressure, which contributes to burnout and absenteeism (Bowers et al., 2000). Research has shown that job satisfaction and organizational culture are strong predictors of worker commitment to an organization (Sikorska-Simmons, 2005), and, as discussed in Chapter 4, poor supervisory relationships are a key driver of turnover (Tellis-Nayak, 2007).
Caring for older patients can be emotionally draining, especially when patients are at the end of life (Haley et al., 2003; Holland and Neimeyer, 2005; Jezuit, 2000; Viles, 2000). Moreover, the work can be physically taxing. Direct-care staff in nursing homes have one of the highest rates of workplace injury among all occupations. In 2006, according to the BLS, the rate of non-fatal occupational injury and illness involving days away from work was 526 incidents per 10,000 workers among nursing aides, orderlies, and attendants (BLS, 2007a). This was four times the average rate among all occupations and was a higher rate than found among either construction workers (488) or truck drivers (411). Fifty-six percent of injuries and illnesses among direct-care workers were directly related to patient interaction, and 86 percent of these injuries and illnesses were due to overexertion. Nursing aides, orderlies, and attendants also had the highest rate of musculoskeletal disorders among all occupations examined.
Among personal-care aides, the documentation and treatment of on-the-job injuries is impeded when aides change employers, which can affect an individual worker's ability to access worker's compensation benefits (Scherzer, 2005, 2006b). In addition, the rate of injury to personal-care aides may be severely underestimated, largely because independent providers are generally ignored by current surveillance mechanisms.
In 1996 the IOM recommended that all personnel who provide direct care (especially in nursing homes) should receive annual training in lifting and transferring patients. The committee also concluded that hospitals and nursing homes should develop effective programs to reduce work-related injuries (IOM, 1996). Chapter 6 of this report identifies a number of technologies that have been developed to assist both direct-care workers and informal caregivers in performing some of the physically demanding tasks that are involved in caring for older adults.
Finally, trends in the care of older adults, such as the movement toward more home-based care, can affect the job environment for these home- and community-based workers. For example, as more workers are hired directly by patients under consumer-directed models of care, home-care workers may have to contend with a more ambiguous situation in terms of their lack of supervisory management. This in turn can make it less likely that these

Lindau is a Bavarian major town and an island on the eastern side of Lake Constance, the freshwater lake called Bodensee in German. It is the capital of the Landkreis or rural district of Lindau, very closely situated near Austria (Vorarlberg) and Switzerland (Ostschweiz). Lindau is part of Bavarian Swabia. The Coat of Arms of Lindau town is a Lime tree. The historic town of Lindau is located on an 0.68-square-kilometre (0.26 sq mi) island, which is connected with the mainland by a road-traffic bridge and a railway dam leading to Lindau station.

The name Lindau was first mentioned by a monk from St. Gallen in a document of 882, stating that Adalbert, count of Raetia, had founded a nunnery on the island. However remains of an early Roman settlement dating back to the 1st century have been found in the district of Aeschach.
In 1180 the St. Stephan's church was founded. In 1224 the Franciscans founded a monastery on the island. In 1274/75 Lindau became an Imperial Free City under King Rudolph I. The terminology 'city' here means German Große Kreisstadt, which is an exception due to Lindau's rather small population of c. 24454 only. In 1430, about 15 of Lindau's Jews were burned at the stake after being accused of murdering a Christian child.[2][3] In 1528, Lindau accepted the Protestant Reformation. Lindau first followed the Tetrapolitan Confession, and then the Augsburg Confession. After the Thirty Years' War, in 1655 the first Lindauer Kinderfest (children's festival) was held in memory of the war time.
After the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire, Lindau lost its status as an Imperial Free City in 1802. The city went to Karl August von Bretzenheim who gave Lindau and monastery to the Kingdom of Austria in 1804. In 1805 Austria returned Lindau to Bavaria.
In 1853 a dam was built to connect the railway from Munich to the island. In 1856 a new harbour was built, with its characteristic landmark, the lion sculpture, together with Bavaria's only lighthouse.
In 1922 the independent districts of Aeschach, Hoyren and Reutin merged with the district. After World War II Lindau fell under French administration and went firstly to Württemberg-Hohenzollern and then to the State of Baden-Württemberg. In 1955, Lindau returned to Bavaria.
Lindau is located near the meeting point of the Austrian, German and Swiss borders. It nestles on the lake in front of Austria's Pfänder mountain. Lindau is popular with sightseers and holidaymakers for its medieval town centre and pleasant location on Lake Constance. Since 1951, the Nobel Laureate Meetings at Lindau[4] attracts many Nobel prize winners to Lindau every year. A congress of medical physics is also held yearly.
Tourist attractions[edit]
Lindau is a main-sightseeing spot in the very South of Germany. Visitors from all over the world visit mostly in Summer. Lindau is famous for its rich, old town houses and variety of different buildings. The gardens of Lindau are wonderful in spring or summer blossom. Attractions range from old buildings to modern outdoor activities like Biking (particular e-Bikes are popular), Sailing, Hiking, Bathing, Camping, etc.
A very up to date and official site is Lindau Tourismus, which takes care of visitors and acts as a starting platform.

In the 19th century Lindau was an important location for textile industries. Nowadays Lindau has a well established industrial and touristic economy, including Restaurants, Hotels and B&B's. For families it is also popular to stay at a Ferienwohnung (Holiday apartment), which you find everywhere in the area. Lindau has a very low unemployment rate, likely due to the economy mix and good trade near the Rhine-Valley. Today, there are a lot of small amongst some industrial companies.

- Restaurants & Cafés, including many different kinds of cuisines, Italian, Greek, German, modern Gastro cuisine, Thai, Chinese, etc. and some take aways (Kebab, Pizza, McDonalds, Chinese, etc.)
- Swimming pools and baths. Some places are public and free of charge, some places have entrance fee and contain a pool and all amenities

- Variety of car dealers (major VW, BMW and Renault with subsidies to other car makes), petrol stations, etc.

Lindau is split into several districts. A search for 'Lindau Stadt' will reveal the town's bordering to the neighbour parts of Lindau.
- Central: Island, Aeschach
- East: Reutin, Zech
- West: Bad Schachen, Unterreitnau
- North: Oberreitnau, Hochbuch, Hoyern, Schönau
Lindau has a main station (for the next years still on the Island, reactivating of the old one on Reutin's mainland is planned) the Lindauer Hbf (short for Hauptbahnhof), with trains usually from/to Friedrichshafen, Munich, Ulm and Augsburg direction or Bregenz with OBB, Austria and further like Zurich by SBB.
Bus - - Stadtbus Lindau[edit]
Lindau's bus system is called Stadtbus Lindau, which departs conveniently from all station every 30 Minutes and runs until 22.30 daily, with special exceptions at events. The bus system is a very helpful way of getting around town for people of all ages, provided by the Lindauer Stadtwerke, which is the main local utility provider.
Beside that the RBA and the Zweiländer-line of Austrias "Landbus Unterland" offer their services. Recently long-distance coaches have started running lines to further away German cities an being an alternative to the Railway by Deutsche Bahn.
Lindau is connected to the Autobahn A96 (E43). Main roads (German Bundesstraße) include B31 and B12. The A96 will merge into the Austrian Autobahn A14 starting right after the boarding with the c. 7 km long Pfändertunnel. The tunnel has been under reconstruction and expansion into a 2-pipe system (opened in 2013) for a total of 4 lanes in the last years to compensate for traffic going North and South.
Lindau does not have its own airport, however is in very close location to Airport Friedrichshafen and Airport Memmingen, which usually serve holiday flyers and European destinations. For international flights, it is suitable to refer to either Airport Munich, Airport Stuttgart or Airport Zurich (CH), all in reasonable distance.
Lindau's local utility provider is called Stadtwerke Lindau. The business includes electricity, water, telecommunications, public baths, and other products. The provider tries to improve in all branches, particular also to integrate and deploy green-energy amongst homes, but also by buying renewables only.
Lindau's telecommunication network is ever growing in the global race for faster internet access. The local utility provider Stadtwerke TK-Lindau started deploying high-grade glass-fibre internet to major businesses, including corporations or Hotels, but also to new housing development areas. Other networks include cable television e.g. by Kabel Deutschland, which is available to some streets and xDSL, e.g. by Telekom or any other provider due to the liberalised market. Some systems have seen upgrades of the ADSL standard in the last years to cope with the high demand of novel communication media. Special projects are also set up to further improve the situation, e.g. plans to deploy a major WiFi hotspot network (or WLAN, which is more common in German) across the Island of Lindau.
Local news sources[edit]
Lindau has a well established newspaper called Lindauer Zeitung, which is part of the Schwäbische Zeitung. It is released daily. Another newspaper is the Bürgerzeitung Lindau (BZ). It is released biweekly and contains e.g. announcements of the town by the Mayor, but also very interesting small stories around local businesses, developments, events, reviews (e.g. anniversary summaries) and many more. The paper is free, but ad-sponsored and can usually be found in shops or companies premises. Both newspapers are print and online available.
Schools and Kindergartens[edit]
Lindau has two main high schools: Bodensee-Gymnasium and Valentin-Heider-Gymnasium. With one middle school for girls (Maria-Ward-Realschule Lindau) and one middle school for boys (Staatliche Realschule für Knaben Lindau) Among several primary schools across the town. Lindau recently completed construction of a new Kindergarten home, which also included a Kita (Kindertagestätte, which is a baby nursery for little ones ages 2–3 before Kindergarten start). There is high demand for childcare and places and the town has obligations by the State of Bavaria to prepare for every child.
Hospitals, registration offices, etc.[edit]
- Asklepios Krankenhaus Lindau
- Bürgerbüro Lindau, the local office for all legal things, e.g. passports, registration, etc.
- KFZ-Zulassungsstelle, registration office for cars
- Finanzamt (tax office), location in Lindau
Lindau's main shopping is mostly remote, off the Island, when it comes to supermarkets like Aldi, Lidl, REWE, etc. However, the Island holds many different shops with nice products, including clothes, cosmetics, gifts, toys, antique items, local products like cheese, vine, etc. Lindau's major shopping mall is called Lindaupark and hosts larger shops like Müller Drogerie, which is a German Boots-like store or Footlocker and a supermarket.
Festivals and events[edit]
With its special location near to the lake, Lindau is also a famous spot for festivals and events. The main season for this definitely in summer, between Mai and August. Some events run annually and for many years.
- U&D, Umsonst & Draussen by Club Vaudeville Lindau. The festival hosts live music at a public area.
- Nobel Laureate Meetings at Lindau, Lindau's prestigious, world-class science event. Students from all over the world are able to meet up with Nobel Laureates to chat about latest topics in science. Lindau is currently reviewing and soon building a new state-of-the-art conference home for the world-renowned event.
- Psychotherapiewochen, a famous event for psychologists
- Rund Um den Bodensee, which is a major sailing competition
- Gartentage 2014
- Lindauer Oktoberfest
- Lindauer Kinderfest
Famous citizens and children of Lindau, special groups[edit]
Lindau has a number of famous people and residents due to its international location near Austria and Switzerland.
- Prof. Dr. Dr. W. Mang (Bodenseeklinik). Dr. Mang is a plastic surgeon with world-status and he is regarded as expert in his field. Mr. Mang is from Lindau and a famous citizen.
- The German site has compiled a comprehensive list of citizens with honoured status
- Due to its close location to Austria and Switzerland, Lindau also maintains a strong multinational attitude. Lindau has a well established English Expats Group or Spanish Groups, etc.
Lindau is believed to be the origin of the Lindauer surname of Germany, Switzerland, Alsace-Lorraine, Austria and the Czech Republic. A Jewish family bearing this name is said to have descended from Suskind of Lindau, who was among those killed during the pogrom of 1430.[5] Lindauer is also a famous wine brand from New Zealand, however there are no or very few relations to Lindau from the product. Lindau has a very strong local beverages economy, including all the local wine spots (Rädlewirtschaften) with fine wines from local wine yards and quality Schnapps made by local farmers from their yearly harvest.
Despite numerous modern metrological news, it can be said that Lindau is located in a temperated-climatic zone (Winter, Spring, Summer, Autumn) with additional mountain surroundings and the freshwater lake. Winters can be cold, wet and dry with Temperatures as low as -20 °C in some extraordinary years. In some exceptional cases, Winters were so severely cold that major parts of the lake froze, so people could cross the lake e.g. by cars. It is said that this event will occur every 50–100 years once only. Summers will be warm, hot and moist due to the surrounding lake area. Heavy storms and rain showers, scenic thunderstorms are common in Summer with heavy wind seen, e.g. Beaufort scale 8 are possible. Usually the lake is calm, however there is also a warning light system for sailing boats indicating if heavy storms will arrive. Due to the surrounding mountains, snow is always in sight and a good indicator of weather. Lake Constance is located at roughly 400m above sea level.
Twin towns[edit]
Lindau is twinned with:
- Serpukhov (Russia)
- Chelles (France) Lindau is twinned and cooperating since 1964 with the City of Chelles in France, which was initiated by the returned French soldiers after World War II.
- Reitnau (Switzerland)

Just rhinoplasty and my Mothers genes!!
Just rhinoplasty and my Mothers genes!!
Oh good Lord. Bore me later hag.
I've removed so many negative people from my life recently.
It's liberating - I've never felt so clear headed and full of purpose.
I'm living that positive way, and this is how it's going to stay.
Depression is a circle in a spiral. You can talk about it all you like, you can pin point exact feelings and emotions. You can discuss it all, but never solve it. It does, however, create a most fascinating viewpoint that, at least for me, is not usually so transparently clear. Morbid epiphanies become the truth for a while and nothing else really exists.
Science, the discovery of amazing things to do with things bigger and smaller than we ever could have imagined. Cures for cancer, healthier foods, trips to the moon, stronger children, softer clothes. What is the point.
Religion, living to the best of our ability, being respectful, honest, humble and careful. Earning our place, our right to live beyond the years we know, to live beyond this world. What is the point.
How many people do you currently know who are actually happy with their life. So why are we so keen to live on, what for, what is the point. No one has ever given me a satisfactory answer to why they are here, why they want to live. What is this need for survival, the preservation of our lives, of our bloodline? What is this precious human experience, how many people really achieve such a thing.
What causes a man to hack his own arm of in order to survive. Is it hunger, a need for sex, clothes, honour or is it pure fear. For a race that, in my opinion, knows very little, we sure are scared of the unknown.
I am petrified of death, I have seen it, I want to say it sucked the life out of someone I loved, but it didn't, it was more of a switch and suddenly there was nothing there. Watching machines keep a person alive is a scary thing. Watching them be periodically pumped with oxygen and nutrients, tubes in their hands, arms, neck, chest, seeing their eyes flick open and roll back as they shake and fit until the next dose of drugs come, until the next pump of air comes. To literally decide to give up, to put the plug and watch their body become still.
There is a certain look in the eyes of the dead, almost a flicker of knowledge. It's not like in the films, you can't just brush your fingers over their eyes and shut them, they are stiff and hard to close. Dead people don't look like people at all, they look like skins. Whether you call it a soul, spirit, essence or personality, once you are dead it is very much gone, and you can see it in their face.
When Caz died I felt it. It is a strange kind of guilt you feel when you realise something bad has happened. Realising that no, she didn't trip and fall, she died. She just died, right there, holding my hand, mid conversation with me in a busy club with "Lolypop" by Lil Wayne playing, what an awful song. There was no point, maybe there is some irony, some twisted humour in the turn of events, but not any real point.
On realising that it was literally a possibility to die at any moment I did a lot of things. I guess I used myself as some sort of experiment to support or disprove my many theories and opinions. The last four years of my life have been utterly insane, I have done so much, experienced more than most other people I know at my age, but I do not feel like I have lived, I do not think I am a step closer to being ready to die. I just know more, I have felt more.
I guess my question would be, why am I here? What am I living for? Is there really no bigger picture? Most of the time I don't care. Right now, it fascinates me. If I am going to go to heaven, what will I do there, apart from be very happy and sing a lot. What happens after get there and why? Am I just created to exist, to disappoint and be forgiven? Do I exist to experience euphoria, I can't believe that existence is based on a feeling, to me, the feelings are just the perks of life. Feeling bad or feeling good, there isn't too much difference, high and low are subjective. What is fear, fear should be worry of pain, pain is uncomfortable, it makes sense not to enjoy it, and fear of anything else is utterly irrational.
I worry that I will never fall in love, get married and have babies. I worry I won't have enough money, lose enough weight, get enough satisfaction. I worry about experiences, not having enough of them, not creating the formula which I have kidded myself will lead to me eventually feeling fulfilled, like I have completed my life.
I would really like for someone to tell me, what is the point.
When I am happy, I don't worry about things, I am too happy enjoying life and all that comes my way. Currently, I spend my time analysing Keats poetry and looking at interesting suicide notes. I have become particularly obsessed with Kurt Cobain and Russell Brand; both seem to be tortured by intelligence.
When I am depressed I think more than I speak, I think more than I feel and I think more than I do, ruminating everything obsessively. I believe that it is not possible to think and be happy at the same time. You must accept things and move on, become complacent with ignorance, or be miserable with an insatiable need to understand more.
One thing I realised is that it doesn't matter how eloquently or vicariously we convey our emotions, people can never understand how we really feel. Sometimes, because of art, music, people allowing us to sympathise with them, we think that we understand what someone else is going through. How silly it all is, the need to make people understand, but the impossibility of it all.
I've enjoyed reading suicide notes. I'm almost scared whilst doing it, as if they might trick me into seeing some beauty in my greatest fear. I am scared by the finality of a tattoo, so I am quite safe from ever wanting to kill myself, unless I eventually go completely round the bend. I've never come across anyone who was over complicating things and decided to kill themselves. People are often simplifying things or concentrate on a single problem that they do not have the inclination or the volition to deal with. Granted, the magnitude of the problem varies from seemingly insignificant, to dauntingly understandable, but each decision to die follows the same pattern. Even if the situation is complicated, the clarity in the decision that death is the only cure is a simplistic ideology.
It's been 4 months since I went and had my nose job, so I thought I'd just throw out some progress/things that have happened since I last updated.
My bridge has completely healed now - there were a few scary moments when I could feel ridges along the bone where it had been broken and yet to fuse together, but it's smooth now (and so straight and thin! Such a win!)
I've been having some issues with the tip part of my nose - the very end still feels like someone hit me, and it's still sort of swollen, but nobody notices, which is good.
There is one thing: nosebleeds. I've been too busy to go back to my surgeon, but in the last month, I've had some minor nose bleeds in the mornings. It may be down to a cold I've had, or to my smoking. I'm not sure. I definitely need to book another appointment and see what is up.
Aside from that - it's all healing fine!
My nose cost £4,500 for 'Open Rhinoplasty' (this means they pretty much gave me an entirely new nose - broke my bridge down to cutting my cartilage out of my nostrils…) I have some before/after pictures here somewhere - check my archive :) x
Thank you!
I went with Ms Kallirroi Tzafetta - she's incredible and was confident in performing my open rhinoplasty…
Nope! Opinions are banned on ALL social networking sites LJB.
But I do. All the time.
I've turned into my worst nightmare - a control freak.
Falling asleep at my desk becuase this job is so brain numbingly dull.
I don't want to be here anymore.

2013 wasn't too great.
I entered a relationship towards the end of 2012, and was in it for most of 2013. I also spent most of the year miserable, and now I ended 2013 single. I don't feel bad about it though. I'm still miserable, but I'm less miserable and I'm miserable for different reasons.
And I consider that a victory.
I might not be happy, but I experienced new things throughout 2013 and I've learned from those experiences.
Years are just good milestones to keep track of growth, and when I look back years down the line I'm gonna feel good about every year.
I'm gonna grow, and I'm gonna change.

Thanks to an error that remained invisible to me until this afternoon, some of our readers were seeing an AA main page that had not been updated since yesterday afternoon. I was not one of those lucky folks so I had no idea until someone pointed it out to me today.

Marvelous Marvin Williams had quite the bounce back year after playing injured all of the previous season. The crazy thing is Marvin got back to all of his career numbers this last season almost exactly across the board. Averaging 9.7 points (10.8 career), 5.1 rebounds (5.1 career), 1.2 assists (1.3 career), .5 blocks (.5 career), .8 steals (.8 career). The main difference in Marvin's game this year compared to past years was his lack of penetration. Marvin went to the line 2 less time per game and shot 2 more 3's a game.
Best game:
Playing 66 games this year due to lingering injuries Marvin produced a great January and February. In fact he has a 3-game stretch where he score over 20 in each game and was lights out. At the first of February he scored 23 against both the Heat and Raptors and 21 against the Mavericks. The most memorable for me was the game against the Mavericks where he scored all 21 points in a the first 18 minutes of the game, including the Jazz's first 14 of 19.
What needs to Improve:
If Marvin is going to sit at the 3 point line and stretch the D he has to be automatic. He was unconscious in February shooting almost 45%, but in March he shot just 22%. Marvin has a place on the court as long as he is hitting 3's and for certain match-ups. If Marvin can attack a little more and get back to his 3-4 free throws a game I think that would be huge for him but also for the Jazz.
I love Marvin. I think he is a great guy to have on a team as he is not a selfish player and he is a great teammate. I hope the Jazz resign him and I hope he helps the Jazz get back to the playoffs. Marvin had an above average season I believe and helped the young guys learn a lot and I expect him to continue that in the future.
Cool Experience:
I was in Wendover just after the season ended and happened to run into Marvin at a craps table. I asked him if he was glad the season was over and he said "yes and no." He said it was good to let his body heal up and that the Jazz would be much better next year. He loves it in Utah and he loves this group of guys. On a side note my buddy and fellow staff writer Tyson Newman rolled for about 20 minutes hitting 3-4 points and having all of us including Marvin winning.

This is the continuation of a photo-project that I began in the summer of 2008: a random collection of "interesting" people in a broad stretch of the Upper West Side of Manhattan — between 72nd Street and 104th Street, especially along Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue.
As I indicated when I started this project in 2008, I don't like to intrude on people's privacy, so I normally use a telephoto lens in order to photograph them while they're still 50-100 feet away from me; but that means I have to continue focusing my attention on the people and activities half a block away, rather than on what's right in front of me.
I've also learned that, in many cases, the opportunities for an interesting picture are very fleeting — literally a matter of a couple of seconds, before the person(s) in question move on, turn away, or stop doing whatever was interesting. So I've learned to keep the camera switched on (which contradicts my traditional urge to conserve battery power), and not worry so much about zooming in for a perfectly-framed picture … after all, once the digital image is uploaded to my computer, it's pretty trivial to crop out the parts unrelated to the main subject.
Thus far, I've generally avoided photographing bums, drunks, crazies, and homeless people. There are a few of them around, and they would certainly create some dramatic pictures; but they generally don't want to be photographed, and I don't want to feel like I'm taking advantage of them. I'm still looking for opportunities to take some "sympathetic" pictures of such people, which might inspire others to reach out and help them. We'll see how it goes …
The only other thing I've noticed, thus far, is that while there are lots of interesting people to photograph, there are far, far, far more people who are not so interesting. They're probably fine people, and they might even be more interesting than the ones I've photographed … but there was just nothing memorable about them.

P. Kumar, Miami - United States - on 26/3/13
A man in New York has put up this craigslist ad offering $500 to help create the illusion that he is a DJ. The text reads: "I am looking for a DJ that plays in the pacha basement to help me give the illusion that I am playing with them for 1 hr. All I ask is that they play one of my original tracks, and make me look like I am performing with them. Arrange this with me, and I will pay $500."
After reading this twice over in shock, we calmed down and decided we really weren't that surprised at all. DJs are the new rockstars, and being one, especially in a popular club like Pacha, carries a certain amount of clout. Paris Hilton does it, so why can't this guy? And who knows, maybe the poor kid just needs to get laid, and $500 is about as much as you'd pay for a nice dinner and show in NYC anyway.
Here's another example of why pretending to DJ is more awesome than DJing. You don't even need wires.

Sporting a new, detuned version of the current CBR600RR engine and a new cast aluminium chassis, bodywork and suspension (now adjustable for preload) the updated Honda CBF600 is practical, easy to ride, fairly swift, comfortable and thanks to ABS brakes as standard, safe too. The Honda CBF600 is aimed at new and 'born again' riders and it does everything it ...
644cc, 43bhp, 105mph, Insurance group 11
The Honda Dominator is the motorcycle that defined the 'urban trailie' craze of the Nineties. Beloved by town-bound motorcycle couriers and B-road hackers thanks to its punchy delivery, rufty-tufty build quality and commanding riding position the Honda Dominator still makes its mark as a value-for-money commuting motorcycle.
929cc, 152bhp, 164mph, Insurance group 17
The Honda CBR900RR FireBlade's biggest revamp to date came for 2000 and it wasn't exactly what fans were expecting. New fuel injection was thirsty and made smooth riding harder. The 17" wheel tamed the Honda CBR900RR FireBlade's lively nature. More importantly the raucous, powerful Yamaha YZF-R1 was in the scene and the Suzuki GSX-R1000 was on the horizon – both better ...
583cc, 54bhp, 111mph, Insurance group 11
The Honda VT600 Shadow is pretty much the antithesis of the original chopper credo. If the first true chops were all about bad boy, bristly individuality, the 600 Shadow is about as soft, unthreatening and unoriginal as it gets. It's bland, novice-friendly and safe and predictable, but you';ve really got to ask yourself if you want that sort of thing. ...
647cc, 53bhp, 110mph, Insurance group 11
The Honda XL650V Transalp has been providing honest transport seemingly since the dawn of time. Revitalised with a bigger motor and a face-lift in 2000, it's softly-chuffing charm and easy-going manners have won a devoted audience. Mostly blokes more interested in getting from A-to-B than having a giggle buy them up.

The Honda CBF600 is undoubtedly a supremely competent motorcycle but lordy, is it dull! Bulky and heavy for a 600cc motorcycle, the Honda CBF600 lacks any real "go", despite being well designed and built. It's a good, safe choice for a new biker but, for those with more experience, it's unlikely to satiate your need for a rush. Once you've mastered the basics, ...

University and College Transport Scheduling and Planning Software
University and College Transport Scheduling and Planning Software
Automated software for university transportation provides true flexibility, adopting easily to changes in service, work rules, ridership and the IT environment. Trapeze works with campus transit organizations to increase the productivity of their schedulers with time-saving features that ultimately reduces operating costs through more efficient resource allocations.
For Example: The Ohio State University was looking to overhaul their demand response dispatching, by making it more efficient, tracking data, and utilizing reporting to make future planning decisions. Christopher Kovitya, Transportation Planner with OSU said: "A turnkey solution was determined to be the most attractive, hassle free, cost effective method to meet our goals." After installing a Trapeze solution OSU was able to cut down on the amount of radio traffic by up to 80 percent since ride notifications are automatically sent to the vehicle MDTs. Dispatchers are able to message drivers changes and can provide live vehicle location updates to customers when they have questions.
Prior to implementing NOVUS-DR, OSU used a "crude" Access database which did not allow for any automation. Entering information was tedious, and reporting was nonexistent. "We were looking to overhaul our demand response dispatching, by making it more efficient, tracking data, and utilizing reporting to make future planning decisions," says Christopher Kovitya, Transportation Planner with OSU. "A turnkey solution was determined to be the most attractive, hassle free, cost effective method to meet our goals."
OSU has chosen to implement Trapeze NOVUS-DR for Demand Response Management. From call taking to dispatching, the browser-based dispatch software is an easy-to-use application for many aspects of OSU's demand response operations. The solution makes it possible for the organization to see improvements in customer service by streamlining and simplifying requests for information and trip booking. The organization can also benefit from an increase in passengers per hour ratio through the ability to update schedules in real-time on the day of service.
"NOVUS-DR certainly makes our operations more efficient. The software enables us to combine trips and riders in ways that we weren't previously. This saves our vehicles time and allows us to add capacity to our system without additional vehicles on the street," says Kovitya. He further explains: "After implementation, we were also able to cut down on the amount of radio traffic by up to 80 percent since ride notifications are automatically sent to the vehicle MDTs. Dispatchers are able to message drivers changes and can provide live vehicle location updates to customers when they have questions."
Says Kovitya: "Trapeze has been excellent to work with from installation support to customer care. The implementation went smoothly with support staff on site during the entire service day for the first week." Currently, OSU is in the implementation phase for NOVUS-FX which is expected to help reduce the man hours spent creating fix route schedules.
The Ohio State University's (OSU) Transportation & Parking Services run a demand response transportation service called "Handivan." It offers faculty, staff, students, and visitors with temporary or permanent mobility impairments an efficient and convenient way to move around campus. This service operates seven days a week throughout the year, transporting wheelchair and ambulatory passengers door-to-door, both on and off campus within University established boundaries. Eight vehicles perform approximately 200 daily trips.

COMEDY NIGHT XV : OUR 15th NIGHT OF COMEDY AT THE RUMOR MILL!
at The Rumor Mill's OPEN MIC/Performance Night
Thursday, January 20, 2011 from 7:30-10:00 pm
Well, there are silly cats and 'philly cats' and then there is the Philly Cat, a.k.a CHARLES KELLAM, a funny cat who wears a hat and whose catnip is a woman without make-up. He thinks the "ladies in philly look way better than in Hollywood. Swear to Bob. I like natural beauty" and who can blame him? Sade, he says he'd like to meet Sade (and, again, who can blame him–every boy has to have a dream) "just so he can find out her last name". Swear to Bob. Anyway, this cat feels he has found his calling in laughter, he loves to make people laugh and to "stand up against the stereotypes." He's currently "recycling his water bottles to finance his first movie, "Sleeping on Root Beer," a comedy about a young bachelor in the Big City just following his dreams"…
Having grown up in Stockton, CA, GABRIELLA FRANCIS considers herself a survivor. She remembers those hard days of youth when she used to run all the way home from the bus stop, an entire block from her house. She was bullied a lot as a kid but she's not scared anymore, now that she's got her secret weapon, a Glock 9 water pistol. With her faux-naivete and apparent wide-eyed innocence, she's been stealing hearts all over the country and for this fraud the grand jury of the County of Los Angeles has indicted her for being criminally funny. She is also accused of taking audience members hostage at such otherwise respectable local venues as The Laugh Factory, the Improv, and the Comedy Store. In response to these charges, she has invoked her constitutional right not to incriminate herself. She has hosted the Rock and Roll Cabaret, been seen on 'Totally Amp'd,' and in various independent films and television commercials. She was the winner of 'The Stand-Up SMACKDOWN.' She should be considered armed (she has two of them!) and dangerously out of control.
AWET TEAME was born in Eritrea, East Africa and raised in Boston, MA. She has performed on all the main comedy stages in Los Angeles, San Francisco and the Bay Area, as well as those in Seattle, Boston, Washington, DC and at various universities around the country. Awet, recently added acting credits to her resume, appearing in a feature film entitled The Post Woman. Previously she worked behind the scenes as an Associate Producer on the feature RevoLoution, and was a casting assistant on both Flavor of Love and Animal Kidding. Currently she enjoys writing, and continues to perform on stages all across the US.
Oh-oh, ladies look out: Hamouli Man is in the house! From Bangkok to Beirut, from Kosovo to the Caspian Sea, from Cairo to Casablanca to California (well, you get the idea), this reincarnated Casanova has been seducing the virginal, the vulnerable and the willing, staying one step ahead of the law and a multitude of angry husbands. He dispenses his failsafe advice on seduction to horny men everywhere, spreading the gospel on how first to conquer (and then escape by dawn's early light) the Hot Momma Chickie Baby of your dreams. He is known to adopt a variety of disguises, sometimes appearing as comic parodist MEL KOHL, sometimes as a weatherman, and then again as a salesman. In this latter guise (and for a considerable fee) he offers insecure and worried husbands a modern chastity belt of his own design to protect the honor of their wives and daughters. But, he always keeps a spare key close at hand and their account information in his cell phone.
ROZ BROWNE is a graduate of USC and a former CPA who managed the books for celebrities like Peter Guber, Jon Peters, Lou Rawls, and Natalie Cole, as well as working for the now-defunct Arthur Andersen & Company. She was misdirected down this career path by a "high school teacher who told me that I could make a lot of money as a CPA." Meeting this teacher again at a high school reunion, she was chagrined when the woman explained that she thought Roz could read better between the lines and that what she had actually meant was that "One could _only_ make a lot of money as a CPA by stealing from your clients. You didn't understand that?" she said, looking at Roz quizzically over her glasses. Despite all those years spent learning the rules of fatal subtraction in the trenches of Hollywood, Roz managed to dig out of this morass of miscalculation and follow her dream. Since 1992 she has kept audiences laughing as a stand-up comedian, appearing widely in comedy clubs, numerous television commercials (including one for Diet Pepsi that aired during the Oscars), and in films which include Danny De Vito's How High, Sunset Park, Deirdra's Party and a new short film, "The Garage Sale." In 2007 Roz launched "The Merry Wives Of Comedy," a stand-up comedy show featuring some of the nation's most talented female comedians.
TODD MUNSON admits to having a history of waking up in strange places. He finds this disconcerting since he was raised Catholic; he hates it because he can't remember why he should feel guilty. He's from Nebraska, where his first job was borderline slave labor working in a cornfield. Desperate to escape this indentured servitude and make it to the City of Dreams, Todd literally fled the cornfield by riding a bicycle through rain, sleet, and snow nonstop to L.A. (see picture at left). Since coming to L.A. he's known for giving directions using restaurants as landmarks. (The Rumor Mill, e.g., he describes as being four blocks south of the Carl's, Jr. on Sepulveda and then seven blocks west on Washington Blvd. across from Café Brazil). He was busted at The Grove movie theaters while seeking admission on a children's ticket. He took a fishing class while in college (things are a little different up there in Nebraska) and, despite sinking a boat during the final, still managed to pass the course. This trumped his earlier educational claim to fame: vomiting onstage in the middle of "Jingle Bells" during his school's holiday pageant. Despite self-confessedly being one of the worst dancers you've ever seen, he claims to have invented the "Wash, Rinse, and Repeat." His first career choice was truck driver but somehow he became a comedian. Today he sometimes is known to ride the bus just for fun. He also has a seventh degree yellow belt in Taekwando, but recently broke a finger while popping a piece of bubble wrap.
SARDIA MARLEY, she of the megawatt smile and impish sense of humor, is back, only one month removed from surgery on her back. This is a funny woman whose work is never done, as Sardia missed only one show and is now back at her mission, after only a month, to conquer the worlds of acting, comedy, and entertainment. Sardia is a single mother of two difficult grown boys who give her no end of grief and delight (and plenty of material for the one-woman show she is getting ready to debut). She is also developing an online comedy show, and looking for her next movie role. Producers looking for a hot chick to burn up the camera lens, to radiate sex appeal, and have moviegoers laughing in the aisles need look no further. She can be found here every other Thursday night. Get her signed up quick, though, as she is wanted by the police. That's her mug shot to the right.

10.5: View exactly which files Time Machine backed up
I'm running this "timedog" command (the one with the new code to enable the "-n" switch listed above by JDSmith on Jul 23, 2008) on Mountain Lion and noticed something that makes no sense. When run it says at the end that "3510 changed files/directories" but if I use the "wc" command on the output it says that it contains only 793 lines. Shouldn't there be 3510 + 2 lines in the file (2 extra lines are the line at the start saying which folders are being compared and the line at the end that gives the totals), since each file or folder that is different is supposed to be listed? Why such a big difference in what it says are different and what it lists as different?

Naive Bayes Classification in Ruby using Hadoop and HBase
I couldn't find anything that could possibly handle many terabytes of data, though. Most Ruby implementations, like the classifier gem, have only a simplistic implementation […]. I decided to create a better naive bayes implementation (for instance, using a Laplacian smoother) that could also handle up to many terabytes of corpus data.
We already have a Hadoop cluster with HBase running, and HBase is perfect for storing data like word counts.
I guess you can imagine what happened next. GitHub project name ☞ ankusa.
