Video: Justin Bieber waves to crowd after release from jail
MIAMI BEACH, Florida (CBSMiami) - International pop star Justin Bieber was released Thursday afternoon
after he was arrested on Miami Beach for DUI and drag-racing early
Thursday morning.
The world-renowned star appeared briefly in bond court earlier Thursday before Miami-Dade County Judge Joseph P. Farina.
In court, Bieber was represented by attorney Roy Black, who has
represented numerous celebrities and high profile cases in South
READ: Justin Bieber's arrest report (PDF)
Judge Farina set Bieber's bail at $2,500, which is the standard bond for a case of this type.
The pop artist left the jail just after 2 p.m., but not before stopping to wave to the gathered photographers and videographers.
Bieber has been in town the past few days, and was reportedly visiting Club Set on Lincoln Road Wednesday night.
The trouble started when Bieber's entourage allegedly used two or
three cars to block traffic on Pine Tree Drive to create a drag strip
for the young star. He was arrested at 4:09 a.m. near the intersection
of Pine Tree Drive and 26th Street in a yellow Lamborghini.
TMZ reported late Thursday morning that Bieber's father "helped facilitate" the crimes that landed Justin in jail.
According to TMZ, Jeremy Bieber, 38, was not only present when
Justin was arrested but that he was one of the people who helped block
off the residential street so his son could race.
TMZ also said that Jeremy was in the Set nightclub just before the arrest with Justin and was with him throughout the day.
The area of Pine Tree Drive on Miami Beach where the alleged drag
racing was happening is a residential area with a 30 miles per hour
speed limit. The arresting officer estimated Bieber was going twice the
speed limit.
According to the arrest report, the arresting officer said, "I
immediately smelled an odor of alcohol eminating (sic) from the drivers
breath and bloodshot eyes. The driver had slow deliberate movements and a
stuper (sic)look on his face.
"He felt at that time that Mr. Bieber may have been impaired," Hernandez said.
The arresting officer said Bieber stated, "Why the f*** are you doing
this?" "Finally, the driver exited the vehicle as he kept going into
his pants pockets."
The officer said he asked Bieber to not go into his pants and put his
hands on top of the car. The arresting officer said Bieber took his
hands off the car and faced the officer. The officer said he told Bieber
to look forward because he was going to perform a patdown.
Bieber responded to the officer, "What the f*** is this about?"
The officer said if Bieber didn't cooperate, he would be subject to
arrest. Bieber, according to the arresting officer, turned around to
face the officer and the officer grabbed his right hand and told him he
was under arrest.
Bieber responded, "What the f*** are you doing?"
"He was brought to the Miami Beach Police station where a DUI investigation was conducted," Martinez said.
According to the police report, once at the Miami Beach Police
Department, officers noticed Bieber had a "flushed face, bloodshot eyes,
and the odor of an alcoholic beverages on his breath." Police conducted
a sobriety field test on "a flat, dry, smooth, and well lit surface"
and that Bieber, "did not perform to standards," and later agreed to a
breath test and drug evaluation.
"During the investigation, Bieber made a statement that he had
consumed some alcohol, had been smoking marijuana and had consumed some
prescription medication," Martinez said.
The chief also noted that Bieber is under 21 and not allowed to drink anyway.
According to the Miami Herald, Bieber blew a .014
and .011 on a brethalizer test, but the Herald said both were too small
for a criminal charge or even administrative license suspension for
underage driver.
Martinez said Bieber has been cooperative with police and not caused any problems during his booking.
Bieber was transported from Miami Beach Police Headquarters to the
Turner Guilford Knight Correction Center just after 10 a.m. Thursday.
Law enforcement blocked the view of cameras while Bieber was being
taken inside the facility, which is not standard operating procedure.
Due to his arrest being a DUI, Bieber must remain in police custody for eight hours.
The driver of the red Ferrari was also arrested. Miami Beach Police
have identified the second driver as Khalil Amir Sharieff, a singer previously signed with
Def Jam Records.
Both the Lamborghini and the Ferrari were taken to the Miami Beach Police department's impound lot.
Earlier in the evening, Bieber and South Florida model Chantel
Jeffries cruised South Beach taking pictures with fans. The pictures
were posted on a Bieber fan page on tumblr.com.
On Monday, the 'Biebs' made headlines in Miami after he reportedly made it rain at a Miami Beach strip club. TMZ
reported that Bieber was spotted earlier in the evening at Mansion
nightclub on South Beach. Then he went to the King of Diamonds strip
club. The club's manager, Disco Rick, told WINZ radio that Bieber was
at the club, but was served no alcohol, and stayed in a VIP room.
The manager said Bieber stuffed wads of $100 bills into the hands of numerous unclothed coquettes.
Bieber's visit to South Florida has also led to an investigation in the city of Opa-locka where officials are investigating the unauthorized police escort given to Bieber Monday night by two of the department's marked squad cars.
Opa-locka Assistant City Manager David Chiverton confirmed the questionable escort to our news partners at WFOR CBS4.
"This escort that was done for Justin Bieber was unauthorized. We
have spoken to our police administration and they are investigating the
matter," Chiverton said.
Just last week, investigators in California searched Bieber's home in
Calabasas during a search for evidence that the pop star was involved
in an egg-tossing vandalism case that caused thousands of dollars in
damage to a neighbor's home.
Bieber, 19, was at the home and cooperated with authorities but was not interviewed by detectives.
As his downfall has been in the public view for the last few weeks,
some Hollywood stars have already started weighing in on his arrest.
"This is the best thing that could have happened to him," said former child star Danny Bonaduce on his radio morning show on Seattle's KZOK-FM. "Speaking from personal experience, this (arrest) could save his life."
Bonaduce became famous as part of the Partridge Family TV series cast
in the early 1970's. His life took troubling turns in the years after
the show, and in 1990, he was arrested for trying to buy cocaine in Daytona Beach, Florida.

Phosphor World Time Curved E-ink Watch Review
[rating: 3.5/5]
- Uses E-ink technology
- Looks cool for the money
- Easy to read display
- No backlight
- No chronograph
- Watch band is not replaceable
Last year I checked out Phosphor's E-Ink Digital Calendar Watch. For the most part I liked what I saw. This year the company released their World Time Curved E-ink watch.
At first glance the new model appears to be analogous to that of last year's offering, but with closer examination there are some updates as well as upgrades.
Phosphor Calendar Vs World Watch
First and foremost the watch body has been slimmed down to a more svelte finish as well as trimmed in the weight category. The two buttons that were found in last year's watch – they resulted in finger numb tips – have now been removed and replaced with a rocker button on the face of the watch that has a left/right action. The band, which is available in rubber, leather or metal is now integrated into the watches body and is NOT replaceable – we're not happy about that since after long term use of any watch the band could wear out. Fortunately, the battery is still user changeable.
Phosphor says that the World Watch is water resistant up to 50 meters, though we didn't take ours for a dunk since it feels and looks nice enough to be removed for water based activities, despite only costing $150.
There are 5 different displays that you can cycle through, all of which can be inverted from black text on a white screen to white text on a black screen. They include: a large time display, small time display, military time and date display with day of the week, world time and a dual time zone display of your choosing.
Black text with a white background is the easier to read, but it's nice to have the option to invert it in the event you get bored with the other. To toggle this mode you simply hold down the left side of the rocker button for about a second and the screen will flash. The screen will also flash (i.e. refresh) when the time changes.
To set the watch, you simply hold down the right side of the button, where it's engraved with the word "Phosphor". It's a pretty standard setup and should be intuitive to most. In order to set the default world time, you'll need to toggle to that screen and follow the same procedure. Since this time is dictated by the watches' core time, you'll toggle one hour at a time and the top of the screen, which displays three letters representing the location, will change with each subsequent push. The locations seem to be represented by each cities' major airport or best known abbreviation ; LAX for Los Angeles, LON for London and so forth. Some of the three letter abbreviations we're beyond my knowledge, but I'm sure if lived there or needed to know the time in that location I'd be able to figure it out.
The Phosphor World Time watch is limited to just 12 times zone, where as the world sports up to 40 times zones, though many of those are a result of time zones with a 15 minute differential. Nonetheless, the watch doesn't cover the entire globe, but seems to capture the major locations. Once in the world time zone mode, you can cycle through the different time zones by pressing left on the rocker button.
While there is a metal band and leather band option, we opted for the rubber (polyurethane) band. It's comfortable to wear for long periods of time and seemed to hold up to daily wearing over a 1 week period; no scuffs or scratches.
Like previous models, the Phosphor E-ink World watch lacks a backlight and sports a 'segmented display' as opposed to a dot matrix one, making it a bit more challenging to read at a quick glance. It's probably not the most practical of time keepers, but who cares, the cache of this watch is found in the technology (e-ink) and overall aesthetic. Just make sure you don't wear out that the band too quickly.
Head to Phosphor to get yours. They start at $150.

Companies use distribution list for internal and external communications of employees. Distribution list is a group of e-mail addresses (Group mails), under a single e-mail address. Every email send to a distribution reaches everyone included in the list. This is the easiest way to select different addresses from Outlook address book at a stretch. For all the sales related queries, "email@example.com" address can be used and each employee in sales department will be intimated. Internal communication is made easier using distribution list.
For setting a distribution list, you need a server side support. Microsoft Exchange Server is the simplest one in creating a group mailbox. Microsoft help has the easiest procedure for creating distribution list from the Outlook address book. This article focuses into the steps for creating a distribution list for group mailing.
Creating distribution list for Outlook 2007 and 2003
Creating distribution list form Outlook address book is very simple and easy. The steps are as follows:
- Launch Outlook from Start menu.
- Click File menu on the main toolbar.
- Select New from the drop-down menu.
- Choose Distribution List from the displayed menu.
- Type the name of the list in the box labeled Name.
- Click on the Select Members button.
- Choose the names to be added from the address book.
- Click on Members option at the bottom. You can also type email address directly in the Members box, separated by a semi-colon (;).
- Click OK.

For a company or business distribution list, server side setting is necessary. After creating the distribution list, you can use the list for sending bulk emails to the members added in the list. The steps are:
- Open a new message window.
- In the To box, type the name of the distribution list or click To and select it from the address book.
- Enter the message and click Send.

If ever you want to send individual email to any one of the member, you can just type the name or email address of that person alone in the TO field and the email will be send to that contact alone.

Irish Arts Center Gives Out Free Books for St. Patrick's Day
Turns out some things in life are free. In honor of St. Patrick's Day, the Irish Arts Center is giving out 10,000 free books penned by Irish and Irish-American writers on Thursday. Volunteers began handing out the books, which were donated by authors and publishers, at transportation hubs and post offices across the city at 6 A.M.
"We thought it would be a really good alternative way to celebrate St. Patrick's Day, 'cause you have the parade and then, you know, people associate it with drinking and stuff," said Jen Browne, 27, the box office and front-of-house manager at the Irish Arts Center. Browne is manning the Bronx give-away station at the steps to the Parkchester No. 6 train stop. "But this was a great way to highlight Irish culture on a day that it's all about being Irish," she said.
Even though most people passing by the table of books seemed perplexed by the idea of receiving a brand new book for free, most of them took one.
"When they hear the word 'free,' they're very surprised and they get excited," said Claire Burke, a 22-year-old intern at the Irish Arts Center who was also handing out books in the Bronx. Both Browne and Burke are of Irish descent.
Bronx resident Marie Jardine paused for a moment to receive her copy of "Forever" by the writer Pete Hamill whose parents emigrated to Brooklyn from Belfast, Northern Ireland. Jardine said she looked forward to reading a book by an Irish New Yorker for many reasons. "Because you're getting to learn about a new culture, you're getting to hear about a people who migrated to this country," she said. "It's beautiful."
"It's great to recognize literacy at all levels," added Parkchester resident Rachel Spiers, picking up a book to read on her hour-and-a-half long subway ride.
The Irish Arts Center is a cultural center that opened in 1972. The center organized its first Book Day with Speaker Christine Quinn and the New York City Council.
Volunteers are also handing out books in Inwood, Manhattan; at the St. George Ferry Terminal in Staten Island; in Park Slope, Brooklyn; and in Jackson Heights, Queens. The first book given out on Thursday was a copy of Robert Sullivan's "Rats" at 6:15 A.M. in the Bronx.

Operator in Latest Fatal Tour Bus Crash Had Poor Safety Record
The federal government has ordered the tour bus company linked to the fatal crash of a bus in Virgina that was returning to Chinatown on Tuesday to halt operations.
Sky Express Bus Company, the tour bus operator, had four crashes in the past two years with two injuries, and drivers were slapped with 46 violations related to driver fatigue and falsifying driving records, according to Department of Transportation records.
The company was also in the bottom one percent of carriers for sending out drivers unfit to operate a bus because of health concerns or a lack of training or experience.
But until Tuesday, the DOT gave the bus company a "satisfactory" safety record — its highest rating.
Authorities said the driver in the early morning bus crash — Queens resident Kin Yiu Cheng — may have fallen asleep at the wheel. He was arrested for reckless driving. The Sky Express bus swerved off northbound Interstate-95 near Fredericksburg, Virg., hit an embankment and flipped over.
The crash killed four passengers and left the driver hurt. Fifty-four people were taken to area hospitals and treated for minor to severe injuries. It was the third deadly accident involving a Chinatown bus in as many months.
Local lawmakers are once again calling for more regulation of Chinatown buses following the fatal crash. Legislation in Albany would allow the city to keep better track of long distance bus operators through permits and more detailed record-keeping.
At a press conference outside a Sky Express office in Manhattan's Chinatown on Tuesday, state Senator Daniel Squadron said more oversight of the long distance bus industry was needed.
"We have too little regulation," he said. "We have one solution: what we can do on the state and the city level."
The bill has passed the state Assembly but not the Senate.

Beyonce and Jay Z launched their highly anticipated On the Run Tour last night (June 25) in Miami, and it's already looking to be the jaw-dropping
'03 '14 Bonnie & Clyde spectacular we've been dreaming of all our lives. Aside from nailing their staggering 42-song setlist, Mr. and Mrs. Carter dominate the stage in some of the steamiest performance outfits we've seen in a WHILE.
Photo: Getty Images
The power couple kicked things off with their famous duet "'03 Bonnie and Clyde." Jay Z wore an American flag tee, beanie, and shades, while Bey bared all in a fishnet ski mask and Atelier Versace bodysuit. We can only imagine how excited the audience felt to see Beyonce walk towards them, and then how EXTRA excited they felt when she walked away from them (ya know, seeing as the back of the bodysuit is essentially a leather thong...).

BRENTWOOD, October 7, 2004 Market leader Ford remains firm favourite among drivers of cars sporting the new "54" plates. Figures just out give the blue oval a 13.7 per cent share of September's market and 14.5 per cent year-to-date. Highlights of Ford's performance include:
Three Ford models in year-to-date top 10: Focus (1st), Fiesta (3rd) and Mondeo (9th). The September top 10 has the ever-popular Ford Ka city car alongside Focus and Fiesta.
Last month the Ka dominated its segment, accounting for almost 49 per cent of new city cars a whopping 34 points ahead of its nearest rival.
The top-selling Focus has achieved sales volumes of more than 89,500 units this year 23,500 cars clear of its second-placed competitor.
September's soft-top enthusiasts hoping for a late summer joined a long list of Ford Streetka fans. Volumes this year are up by more than 10.5 per cent to 5,129 units.
In the commercial vehicle sector, light CVs led the charge. Figures for Transit Connect and Fiesta Van show a massive 50 per cent increase to 13,551 vans sold year-to-date. Their performance, together with iconic Transit, helped Ford lead the total CV market with a 24.6 per cent share.
Private buyers declared Ford Fiesta as their number one. The total sold in September was more than 24 per cent ahead of last year.
Focus and Mondeo were 1st and 2nd best selling diesel cars for the seventh successive month.
Paul Thomas, Ford of Britain managing director, said: "I'm proud of Ford's sales achievements in the crucial month of September, which reflect our position as Britain's favourite vehicle brand. Further new models in the pipeline will give us an even more exciting line up as we go into next year."

Misty Mount Sunapee
May 23rd, 2011 – The weather this spring is proving to be tricky when it comes to planning outdoor pursuits. With more rainy days than sunny ones, it can be hard to get motivated for a hike on a dreary day. Nevertheless after spending too many rainy days inside I knew it was time to get out and explore. Destination…. Mount Sunapee State Park.
Mount Sunapee State Park is most known for its downhill skiing, but to me the park has the most to offer once the snow melts. The picturesque lakeside beach and a vast network of well-marked hiking trails make it the perfect place to spend a day.
Starting from the secluded group campground near the ski area, I took the Rim Trail up a rocky path meandering through large glacial boulders, heavy moss, and smoky quartz formations. The wet day had created miniature waterfalls bounding from nearly every rock and a light fog hung over fields loaded with mountain laurel making the woods feel exceptionally majestic.
Moving about a third of a mile down the Rim Trail I found myself at the junction of the Newbury Trail. Taking a left will lead you to a scenic spot looking out over Lake Sunapee known as the bird's nest. I took a right on the Newbury Trail, and just over a mile down the trail is Lake Solitude, which lives up to its namesake.
Speckled with small rocky beaches and grassy nooks in-between, Lake Solitude is an ideal place to stop for lunch or just lounge around waiting for the wildlife to show up. The abundance of moose droppings in the area seemed to confirm who the lakes most frequent visitors are.
The trail options do not end at Lake Solitude. After re-energizing by the lake you may opt to take the .9-mile Solitude Trail up to the summit of Mt. Sunapee. Another option is to hook up with Monadnock-Sunapee Greenway, which will first head to Lucia's Lookout before leading into Pillsbury State Park.
Whichever route you decide to take your day would best be capped off down at the Lake Sunapee State Beach. Picnic tables and charcoal grills along the water's edge make the perfect setting for a post-hike barbeque.
About Daniel Wilkinson, New Hampshire State Parks Summer InternI love it here in New Hampshire. I've been visiting my entire life, but it wasn't until I moved here to attend Plymouth State University that I realized just how much the New Hampshire State Parks could offer. Comprised of 92 different parks, waysides, historical sites, and recreational trails there is something for everyone to enjoy here. From hiking, camping, skiing, biking, boating, to picnics, sunbathing, and playgrounds it is easy for the whole the family to have fun in a New Hampshire State Park. This summer, as a NH State Parks intern, I'll be traveling around New Hampshire to give you a look at all the different experiences you can have inside the state parks. Using a camera, my hiking boots, kayak, and mountain bike I plan to explore as much as I can and report back to you. I'm excited to get out there, but I'm even more excited to share my adventures and motivate you to get outside and enjoy the New Hampshire State Parks.

I would like to know please, what's the best driver: open source or manufacturer? And what's the difference between the two? I am having trouble with my ATD hd6470 in 11.10, and my system will not boot after I installed the proprietary drivers. Are there Open Source ones to fix the problem?

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, visit the help center.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
It depends on the driver. fglrx drivers (ATI/AMD) can cause problems as well as solve them. My recommendation is to stay with the open source driver unless you have a critical problem (e.g. blank screen) that can be solved in no other way.
It depends on the graphics card, but in general Proprietary drivers function better and grant better performance. They are designed by the manufacturer of the video card. However the open source drivers (as with other software) tend to have better reliability.
Depends on who you ask and what you use the drivers for.
If there is an option, I prefer the open source and will sacrifice performance (to a point) to use open source over closed. Why ? Because you can report bugs and hope for a fix.
If you go closed source, performance will (usually) be better, but the cost is at a loss of support.
Understand, just because it is open source does not mean there is an easy or quick fix to driver problems, but it is not as if the closed source providers are known for their linux support either.
Better to determine what you need from a driver, evaluate if the open source driver meets your needs, and if not try the closed source.
I find that the open source drivers to be as good as the closed source for my Acer 5222 with AMD grahics card. Minecraft runs just as good with the open source ones.

Rune Grammofon, 2006
By Allana Mayer
For those of us that may never see this abstract Norwegian quartet in their live improvisational mode, the grainy 16mm recording of their Oslo performance in 2004 may be the next best thing. Though all their albums are equally off-the-cuff, it's another thing to see this work created in real time. Though I haven't yet got my sweaty, nervous hands on a copy of this "ultimate" live performance DVD, the audio tracks have been e-pilferable for some time now. It's only whetted my and other spaced-out electro nerds' appetites. And until I can chalk up a 40-dollar DVD purchase to satiate my obsessive self, I'll just loop the soundtrack and dream.
This highly mysterious group lacks album and song titles and is rumoured never to practice in between recording or performance sessions, letting everything flow naturally when required. From almost two hours of live music (including an enthusiastic audience's strange habit of applauding in unified rhythm) comes a vision of the band at their most connected, dramatic, and expressive. In the first 8 minutes of "7.1″ the tension builds, and doesn't release until the conclusion of the encore six tracks later. Chopped vocals, something unseen in earlier releases, only adds to the mystery. Supersilent remain wordless and unconventional in their communication.
Trumpet, drums, keys, and electronic manipulation add up to more confusion, as a soft trumpet solo sounds more like a flute, sporadic rhythms speak to synthesized beats, and shiny chimes ring out from lazy fingerings. In the last three minutes of "7.4″ it becomes obvious that this band could seamlessly transition into fully functional electronic music, with rhythm and loop and traditional dynamics galore. Instead, Supersilent chooses to create its own language, of sound and body and discrete looks, speaking to each other, and their fans, in fascinating and compelling ways.

Wednesday July 22, 1998
When towering Abraham Lincoln met tiny Harriet Beecher Stowe, or so the story goes, he peered down at the woman whose "Uncle Tom's Cabin" had inflamed the North against slavery and said, "So this is the little lady who started the big war." And so it is on finally seeing "Lolita."
Shown to and refused by studio executives early in 1997, debuting in Europe in September and finally opening in Los Angeles 10 months later for a one-week Academy Award-qualifying run before going nationwide Aug. 2 on Showtime, "Lolita" seems hardly likely to have caused so much trouble.
Was this reverential, overly long version of the Vladimir Nabokov novel going to start a conflagration in the hearts of the religious right? Was this careful, respectful but only sporadically involving vehicle the bombshell guaranteed to outrage moralists across America? Surely, there must be some mistake.
"Lolita's" subject matter of a grown man engaging in a sexual relationship with a pre-pubescent girl has been understandably controversial since Nabokov's brilliant novel was published in France in 1955 and went on to sell 14 million copies in this country. And the congressional passage in 1996 of the Child Pornography Prevention Act, precluding the use of body doubles by forbidding even what "appears to be a minor engaging in sexually explicit conduct," cast more of a chilling effect and made reediting on "Lolita" a necessity.
But on seeing the finished film, the pious spin the filmmakers have put on the chronicle of their lack of success in the American market--a tale of besieged genius confronting soulless philistines, of dark threats to creative expression and 1st Amendment rights--seems lamentably self-serving.
This is not the case of a brilliant film sandbagged by the nattering nabobs of negativity, but rather a rarefied, arty, distinctly noncommercial work whose refined air and considerable cost (a reported $58 million, double its original budget) clearly were as much factors as the threat of controversy in keeping distributors away.
Paradoxically, "Lolita" is also the least likely movie to have been made by director Adrian Lyne, whose previous works include such non-art-house fare as "Flashdance," "Fatal Attraction," "9 1/2 Weeks" and "Indecent Proposal."
A passionate admirer of the Nabokov novel, Lyne, having rejected screenplays by Harold Pinter, David Mamet and James Dearden, elected to follow Stephen Schiff's careful script, retaining the novel's late-1940s setting and turning great stretches of Nabokov's hypnotic prose into voice-over material.
But though this "Lolita" is closer to the book than Stanley Kubrick's dazzling 1962 version (which starred James Mason, Sue Lyon and Peter Sellers), respect has not served it particularly well. Except for a memorably haunted performance by Jeremy Irons as the conflicted Humbert Humbert, what the new version lacks most of all is inspiration.
Humbert is the film's narrator as well as its protagonist, and it's his sad voice we hear crooning, "Light of my life, fire of my loins, my sin, my soul, Lolita," as, spattered with blood with a revolver next to him, he erratically drives his car along a country road.
Most of the film is a flashback from that moment, but before that can begin we go back even earlier, to Humbert's childhood, when he fell deeply in love with a girl of 12, only to have her die of typhus. "The shock of her death froze something in me," he remembers. "The child I loved was gone, but I kept looking for her--long after I had left my own childhood behind."
Humbert's tale proper begins in 1947 in the New England village of Ramsdale, where he has gone to spend a quiet summer before he begins teaching at nearby Beardsley College. Humbert inquires about a room rented by the affected Charlotte Haze (Melanie Griffith) and is about to turn it down when he catches sight of young daughter Lolita (Dominique Swain), lolling casually under a lawn sprinkler and smiling innocently through her dental retainer in a way he finds irresistible.
Humbert is, he tells us, a connoisseur of what he calls the nymphet, "the little deadly demon" with power enough to cloud his normally reasonable mind with thoughts of lust. From that moment on, Humbert's entire waking life is devoted to trying to seduce Lolita, to make her his own. It's a quest that takes strange turns, including the involvement of a mysterious author named Clare Quilty (Frank Langella), and has unlooked-for results.
It should be emphasized that though sex is very much on its mind, this "Lolita" is not prurient and not meant to be. What drama it has focuses on Irons' expert rendition of Humbert's various comic-tragic agonies, the contortions he has to go through to sustain a relationship with someone who, after all, is only 14.
Swain, who was a 15-year-old sophomore at Malibu High when filming began, does a respectable job as Lolita, but through no fault of her own this character is more problematic than Humbert's. For one thing, in an age when a supermodel like Kate Moss can become an international sexual icon partly because she looks 15, Swain doesn't, as Sue Lyon didn't, really look as young as the novel has you imagine her.
Nabokov's book is a problem in another way: It is largely narrative, with very little dialogue. Though "Lolita" tries to remedy this with extensive voice-over, the movie has no choice but to replace the novel's incandescent language, its major source of excitement, with the kind of not particularly edifying dialogue that tends to come out of a 14-year-old's mouth.
When Kubrick's "Lolita" was released in 1962, the ad line teasingly asked, "How could they make a movie of Lolita?" A more appropriate question for this version is not how could they do it, but how could such a sincere, well-meaning effort end up so ineffectual on the screen?
Lolita, 1998. R, for aberrant sexuality, a strong scene of violence, nudity and some language. Released by the Samuel Goldwyn Co. Director Adrian Lyne. Producers Mario Kassar, Joel B. Michaels. Screenplay Stephen Schiff, based on the novel by Vladimir Nabokov. Cinematographer Howard Atherton. Editors Julie Monroe, David Brenner. Costumes Judianna Makovsky. Music Ennio Morricone. Production design Jon Hutman. Art directors Jon Hutman, W. Steven Graham. Running time: 2 hours, 17 minutes. Jeremy Irons as Humbert Humbert. Melanie Griffith as Charlotte Haze. Frank Langella as Clare Quilty. Dominique Swain as Lolita.

"the kind of people I fancied should live in that house." The painting shows
a farmer standing beside a woman whose identity remains ambiguous;
she may either be his spinster daughter, as explained by the artist's sister,

18 CSU Campuses Among Nation's Top 100 in Awarding Bachelor's Degrees to Hispanics
Contact: Clara Potes-Fellow, 562-951-4806, email@example.com
(May 17, 2005) -- Eighteen California State University campuses are listed in the May issue of Hispanic Outlook in Higher Education as being among the annual "Top 100," a national list of colleges and universities that conferred the most bachelor's degrees upon Hispanics, according to the latest report by the National Center for Education Statistics.
California State University campuses consistently rank among the very top in the nation in this area. In addition, 12 CSU campuses were in the top 100 in awarding master's degrees nationwide.
"The CSU, the largest and most diverse university system in the nation, continues to be a leader in serving the culturally rich ethnic population of the state," said CSU Chancellor Charles B. Reed "We are proud that we remain the university of choice for so many talented and hard-working Hispanic students"
CSU campuses in the Top 100 in awarding bachelor's degrees are Fullerton (#5), Los Angeles (#6), Northridge (#7), San Diego (#9), Long Beach (#10), Fresno (#17), San Bernardino (#21), Pomona (#22), Dominguez Hills (#27), San Jose (#33), Sacramento (#39), San Francisco (#40), San Luis Obispo (#49), Bakersfield (#65), Stanislaus (#68), Chico (#77), East Bay (#82), and San Marcos (#93).
Campuses in the Top 100 in awarding master's degrees are Los Angeles (#9), Dominguez Hills (#21), San Diego (#25), Long Beach (#26), San Jose (#30), Fullerton (#35), Northridge (#39), San Bernardino (#44), San Francisco (#49), Fresno (#53), Sacramento (#66), and Bakersfield (#94).
National rankings such as these typically focus on student demographics that favor larger, urban universities, which exclude several of CSU's smaller, rural, newer and specialized campuses—California Maritime Academy, CSU Channel Islands, CSU Monterey Bay, Humboldt State University, and Sonoma State University.
CSU campuses were among the top 10 nationally in awarding degrees in a range of academic fields, with especially strong showings in Home Economics (10 of 11), Protective Services (5 of 11), Hispanic Studies (4 of 10), Public Administration (4 of 10), Agriculture (3 of 10), Area Studies (3 of 10), Business and Marketing (3 of 10), and Visual and Performing Arts (3 of 10).
The CSU graduating class of 2004 included 11,435 Hispanic bachelor's degree recipients among the 27,040 students of color graduating.
The California State University is the largest system of senior higher education in the country, with 23 campuses, some 400,000 students and 42,000 faculty and staff. Since the system was created in 1961, it has awarded more than 2 million degrees. The CSU is renowned for the quality of its teaching and for the job- ready graduates it produces. Its mission is to provide high-quality, affordable education to meet the ever- changing needs of the people of California. With its commitment to excellence, diversity and innovation, the CSU is the university system that is working for California. See: www.calstate.edu.

Heller as the wonderful solution:
Also, my past optimistic view was evidence based at the time. That is a simple point. I wish I was wrong.
I currently see that I was perhaps incorrect. I thought that Obama would talk the ban talk but do nothing for political reasons. But I was wrong. He went full press on the issue. I thought that progun Democrats and most progun Republicans would hold the line (Toomey, Manchin - hey, being touted for President!). We will see about the House. Also, my optimism was based on the history of desegregation. In that case, the Federal government took Brown as a case to move against states. That certainly isn't the case here.
If you understand that analyses change based on evidence, you might move beyond rhetoric.
I'm not seeing Heller or Mc as a magic wand. I'd bet that the only thing it will protect is the right to have a double barrel - with appropriate registration - when the dust settles. Rights to handguns and EBRs will be iffy. State laws like the SAFE act will limit access to those and will the SCOTUS overturn. Place you bets on the wiley old bird. Note the NYTimes article does discuss the holes I pointed out as legitimizing such laws.
See what happens for other cases - Posner's decision? That will tell the tale rather than old wily bird praise.

Eadie: We're Relishing Moseley Test
Back-rower eager to get back to winning ways
Mitch Eadie is determined to help Bristol return to winning ways against Moseley on Friday (7.45pm KO).
Liam Middleton's side - who have never won at Billesley Common in the RFU Championship – will look to get back on track following defeat to Nottingham in the last league outing.
"We haven't won up there before, but that's a challenge we're relishing and a record that we want to end," said the talented no.8.
"After the disappointment of last Friday, the boys have got their heads down in training and worked hard – we'll be ready to go again this weekend.
"There's still plenty of confidence among the squad, one defeat won't change that. We played some good rugby at times, but things didn't go our way. Now, it's up to us to put things right at Billesley Common and get back on track.
"We won't be taking Moseley lightly. They showed earlier in the season how dangerous they can be, so we'll need to be on the money to bag the points.
"We're taking it week by week, but we still firmly believe that we can achieve a place in the play-offs. It's important that we make it count on Friday night.
"Bristol always bring a big following to Moseley, so it'll feel like a home game for us – we can use that support to our advantage."

Tarte the Sculptor Contouring Face Slenderizer Swatches
The new Tarte The Sculptor Contouring Face Slenderizer apparently makes is the idiot's guide to contouring for girl's like me. I admit I am clueless when it comes to contouring my face so it seems like a good idea that a single chubby stick might be able to do that for me.
This new creamy contouring acts to slim your face down while creating a perfectly sculpted look!
Take a peek!
Tarte the Sculptor Contouring Face Slenderizer is a chubby pencil that looks exactly like Tarte's Lipsurgence packaging. No need for a sharpener as this has a swivel up design.
I think shade reminds me more of a bronzing color than a contouring one but it really depends on your skin tone and the color(s) you typically use for contouring. This is a milk chocolate shade with a hint of an orange-y undertone. Tarte markets it for slimming your neck, jawline, and nose as well as creating higher cheek bones. It's very creamy with an easy to blend formula which sets to a a near powder finish.
Tarte the Sculptor Contouring Face Slenderizer Swatches
I'm no expert at contouring but I did apply around my face and it deserves to be mentioned that the color sheers out considerably so you do have to built a bit to get the best color pay off here. Not that you want a pigmented contouring shade but you also don't want it to sheer away completely defeating the purpose of your contoured finish.
I'm not personally reviewing it because as I said I'm not one for contouring my face. But I did want to swatch it and briefly discuss it in case anyone was interested.
It seems like an easy, convenient way to contour your face!
I know quite a few reader's have purchased, tried, and used this so feel free to share your thoughts about it below!
It's available now at qvc.com as well as sephora.com.

Wow, is that an orangey color. I can't see this working for many skin tones, but at the same time I don't see how they would release something if they hadn't tried it on different skin tones beforehand. Thanks for saving me some money!!!:)
5/1/14 14:08 Patsy:
I just bought this from Sephora this morning :). I'm an idiot when it comes to sculpting and bronzing, so I'm hoping this is as easy as it sounds. I'll let you know!
5/9/14 13:40 Majick:
I think the design is great for someone who likes cream blushes and bronzers. It also makes getting into tighter places easier (i.e. the sides of your nose if you choose).
Frankly, I have sculpting powders from IT, Smashbox, and probably some others (lol, stuff gets lost in my stash) and I'm always in such a hurry that I just use my bronzer of the day for sculpting.
I put it under my cheekbones, under my jaw and down the neck lightly, and a little around the hairline but, that said, I would never get that fat bronzer brush down the sides of my nose. LOL

Man in a Suit: Georgia Grimond meets Paul Cocksedge, an electrical designer with a bright future...
From INTELLIGENT LIFE magazine, September/October 2012
The label "lighting designer" isn't one Paul Cocksedge likes; and it doesn't do his work justice. Light is just one material he uses to bring his elegant, intelligent ideas to life. "Light's wonderful," he explains; "there's still so much mystery around it." He toys with this mystery, employing unusual conductors – a pencil line drawn on paper, or a flower – to complete electrical circuits and baffle viewers. But it is by no means the extent of his talents.
"Styrene" (above) is a dappled, honeycombed ball with a naked bulb at its centre. It has a warm glow, a mesmeric pattern, and is all the more intriguing for being made from polystyrene cups. At 24, Cocksedge was given a brief by his tutors at the Royal College of Art in London to "grow" a product. His instinct was that there was air in the soft plastic of cups, so they would shrink and harden if baked in an oven. It worked; he had a new, cheap material to work with, a beautiful installation and the start of a promising career.
Since then, Cocksedge has spent nine years co-running his own practice. He's wary of "hyper-clumsy" design, preferring playful pieces, often intended for public spaces and encouraging human interaction. For "Kiss", in Christmas 2009, Cocksedge lined the central dome of Milan's main shopping arcade with a sparkling blue LED-light canopy and hung an oversized piece of mistletoe down to head height. When couples held the mistletoe and kissed, the circuit closed, turning on the lights. There was more to it than romance: Cocksedge persuaded sponsors to donate €1 for every kiss, raising around €100,000 for charity. Ingenious, inclusive, "Kiss" sums up its maker.
In person, Cocksedge has big, questioning eyes, a friendly, interested manner, and is clearly itching to get on. He relishes the idea of putting out a collection every year, saying that "working like a fashion designer would be ideal". For the moment, though, he is concentrating on his recently opened online shop, and a list of future projects that includes music, men's underwear, interiors and architecture. He won't be called just a lighting designer for much longer.
Cocksedge admits to an interest in fashion, preferring tailoring made in Italy "rather than China". What did he make of this royal-blue corduroy suit from Reiss? "I wouldn't usually go for cord," he said, "but it looked good and it worked." The ochre jumper surprised him – but in a good way. "Men think they know their colour," he said. "We don't. We are not very adventurous." And there was a chance, he thought, that the colour was inspired by light. How fitting that would be.
Cotton corduroy "Schroader" blazer, £225 ($425), and trousers, £95 ($180), both by Reiss; mustard wool/alpaca jumper, £170 ($250), and burgundy brogue boots, £415 ($605), both by APC; white V-neck T-shirt, £35 ($55), by All Saints; Tangente Datum watch with sapphire crystal back, £1,640 ($2,610), by Nomos Glashütte; "Styrene" lamp, £597, by Paul Cocksedge Studio

Predigital advocacy for the Edenton Seven
Sept. 5, 2012
Almost 68 years old I am, but until this week I had never hoisted a picket sign. Why now?
Within walking distance of my house, thousands of delegates and reporters are attending the Democratic National Convention. A moment of attention perhaps for littlerascalsdaycarecase.org?
Most of those striding along the sidewalk in front of the Convention Center barely glanced at my carefully stenciled placard, but occasionally someone asked about the case and accepted a card. Jim Morrill of the Charlotte Observer even gave me a mention on his blog.
What I have learned: As a media magnet, I'm no match for a white-bearded guy bearing a six-foot cross (on rollers) and two wooden tablets.

Women's earnings as a percent of men's in 2010
January 10, 2012
In 2010, women who worked full time in wage and salary jobs had median usual weekly earnings of $669. This represented 81 percent of men's median weekly earnings ($824).
Women's-to-men's earnings ratios were higher among Blacks (94 percent) and Hispanics (91 percent) than among Asians (83 percent) and Whites (81 percent).
These data are from the Current Population Survey (CPS). To learn more, see Women in the Labor Force: A Databook (2011 Edition), BLS Report 1034, December 2011. Beginning in 2003, estimates for the above race groups include people who selected this race group only; people who selected more than one race group are not included. Prior to 2003, people who reported more than one race were included in the group they identified as the main race. Data for Asians were not tabulated prior to 2000. Persons whose ethnicity is identified as Hispanic or Latino may be of any race.
