For The Beatles, fame in America was not a long and winding road.
For The Beatles, fame in America was not a long and winding road.
On Feb. 9, 1964, Beatlemania hit the United States with full force.
That's the night the Fab Four, with their Edwardian suits and mop top haircuts, made their first American television appearance – live – on "The Ed Sullivan Show."
Millions of parents surely wanted to scream "Help!", but millions more adoring teens – a record 74 million viewers – tuned in to see what all the fuss was about. The band's song, "I Want to Hold Your Hand," had already hit No. 1, boys were already wearing Beatles wigs and screaming girls were everywhere the group appeared.
The band would play three other times on the Sullivan show over the next year with a quarter of a billion – yes, billion – people watching, still considered per population percentage the most highly-viewed regularly-broadcast shows of all time.
Something in the way they moved struck a chord and for the next six and a half years, the intense fan frenzy (which sparked the term, Beatlemania) would continue. The band stopped performing live in 1966 but continued to sell records at a phenomenal rate.
Starting with the "I Want to Hold Your Hand" single on the Billboard Hot 100 and ending with the "Let It Be" LP, The Beatles had the No. 1 single in the U.S. for a total of 59 weeks and topped the LP charts for 116 weeks. Translated: They had the top-selling single one out of every six weeks and the top-selling album one out of every three weeks.
With each successive, groundbreaking LP, the Fab Four stretched themselves lyrically, musically and individually, creating a Revolution in music, fashion, movies … taking pop culture itself on a Magical Mystery Tour. The Lennon-McCartney singer-songwriter combination would set a standard for creativity that has never been matched – and likely never will be again.
As the 50th anniversary nears of that first Sullivan show, we invited readers to share their memories. Let it be said their passion for John, Paul, George and Ringo hasn't dimmed any with time.

We moved to Farmer in 1978 when I was about 7 and I started first grade there. I was learning to read at school. My mom has this record player that's like a piece of furniture with all these old records in it. One side is for the records and the other side has the turntable and a radio.
For some reason she never kept the album sleeves so I was going through them one day reading the labels. I came across a Beatles record and I said, "Mama, does this say The Beatles?"
She said, "Yeah, you should listen to that, you'd probably like it."
Well, I loved it! She had "Meet The Beatles" and "The Beatles IV." I would play those two records over and over and over while I rode my bike under the carport on my little Raggedy Ann record player. My best friend lived across the street from me and as soon as school got out, that is what we did. Played the Beatles and either roller skated or rode bikes to the Beatles! After a while my dad decided I needed a new one to listen to and bought me "The Beatles Rock N Roll Music Volume one."
I loved it, too, so I ended up with all The Beatles records.
When John Lennon was murdered I got more interested in them as people after seeing all the people so upset on TV over him. I wanted pictures, books and anything else so I could learn about them.
When I graduated college my grandmother took me to England. It was a lifelong dream. We stayed in London so I bought a train ticket to go to Liverpool. We took the Magical Mystery Tour and the bus looked just like the one on the movie. The BBC was there filming our tour and they would say, "OK, when you get off the bus wave to the camera."
So once they told us to sing "Yellow Submarine" all together on the bus. So we did. Everyone except my Grandma. When we finished singing I said, "Grandma, why didn't you sing?"
She said, "I've never been so embarrassed in my entire life!"
I said, "Why?!"
She said, "My granddaughter on that tacky bus singing at the top of her lungs that she lives in a Yellow Submarine!"
I laughed and laughed. It's one of my favorite memories.
I've seen Paul in concert four times with my best friend (yes, we are still best friends) and Ringo once. I still have one dream left. To meet a Beatle. I can't wait.
I also have a white Lab named Abbey Rose (after Abbey Road) and the black lab I had before was Sgt Pepper.

There will never be a group like The Beatles.
I was born in Philadelphia, and in the summer of 1964 our family moved to the suburbs. From the moment I heard the sound of The Beatles, I, like many other Baby Boomers, flipped out at the new sound of the Fab Four.
On my birthday in mid-August, my parents gave me a card in which were two tickets to see The Beatles in concert. What a way to celebrate my 12th birthday.
My dad drove to Philadelphia with me on Sept. 2 and you couldn't hear a thing for all the screaming. On top of that, we were seated on the top level, way in the back.
My dad told me to try screaming and maybe I would hear them better. That did no good. Dad then suggested that I could try to run down to the stage and possibly hear them better. I took his advice and, being much smaller than I am now, I wiggled my way through all the other girls until I was only three deep from John (who was my favorite from Day 1) and George. When John turned his head my way, I shouted, "John, I love you!" He smiled and winked at me!
On our way out, Dad bought me one 8-by-10-inch, signed color photo of each Beatle for only 50 cents each.
For my 50th birthday, Dad once again took me to see another Beatle – this time, it was Paul McCartney.
There will never be another group like The Beatles in our lifetime – one that played their own music and wrote their own songs. They were true geniuses.
– Maureen T. Robbins, Randleman
I was the perfect age of 12 when I saw them on "Ed Sullivan" that February night, and have loved them forever since.
However, as I've gotten older, I have realized, that it was only a scant three months after the Kennedy assassination that they appeared on the scene to a still grieving nation, and it was like a breath of fresh air that I think this nation needed at that time.
I've been a Beatles' fan all my life. My children were raised on that, and I think every Christmas or birthday or Mother's Day for many years, they replaced my LP's with CD's of all Beatles albums, and books … I have a whole shelf of every book about them, and that huge Beatles' Anthology. I really read every page of it. You can't mess me up much on Beatle trivia. I think "Rubber Soul" was my favorite album. I know that "Let It Be" was recorded before "Abbey Road," and was mostly acoustical, but was shelved, and later retrieved by Phil Spector and he added all the orchestra stuff to the songs (Think "The Long and Winding Road.") So, a lot of people think "Let It Be" was the last album because of that. It was just the last one released. And their last public appearance was on top of the Abbey Road building and they sang "Get Back." I'm sure everyone remembers that.
When John Lennon was killed, and I really mourned that, some idiot wrote a letter to the editor in the Greensboro paper and he said, more or less, good riddance because The Beatles had brought drugs and pot to this country … I was so furious, and wrote a rebuttal, that was published, that The Beatles were introduced to pot for the first time by Bob Dylan when they first came to this country, and didn't he remember the jazz times of the '30s??? Duh!

I'm sitting listening to "The Beatles 1967-1970" as I write this. It involves memories of days long past. I love different eras of The Beatles music for different reasons.
Despite their early live shows, their latter live shows were under-equipped for the venue. They played their songs as recorded but could not be heard for the fan reaction, the screaming.
Maybe being forced from the stage to the studio was the catalyst The Beatles needed. There, they were free to experiment with sound, music, composition, arrangement. Whether drugs influenced or not, their music was pure genius!
1964. I'm 10 years old and not much interested in music. Sure, I'd heard the music that became the "Golden Oldies, "but it didn't "grab me." For the most part I didn't listen to the radio or buy records.
Then came The Beatles. The first time I heard a Beatles song I was a fan. I loved the music, the look, the lyrics, the sound, even the accents. I brought as many of their records/albums as I could, even though Asheboro wasn't mainstream Beatle friendly. I bought magazines featuring the Fab Four as often as I could.
When the British Invasion hit in 1964 I was ready. I couldn't wait to see The Beatles live on "The Ed Sullivan Show," but it wasn't to be. On that night, either by happenstance or design, we visited next door relatives and, oh no, the TV couldn't be turned on because they had company.
Anyway, as time passed and Beatlemania grew I wanted to wear my hair like the "mop-top." No such luck. I always got the "crew-cut" and the gel to keep it up. I didn't use the gel and let my hair fall over my forehead no matter the length.
I followed The Beatles off and on throughout their career. A lot of their music spoke to me in one way or another. I was saddened by their break-up and waited for the Beatles Reunion that never happened.
Since then I've mourned the loss of John Lennon and the passing of George Harrison. I never saw The Beatles in concert, but I did get to take in "A Hard Day's Night" at the old Carolina Theater on Fayetteville Street in Asheboro.
My youngest daughter, born years after The Beatles, is as big a fan, if not bigger, of The Beatles as I ever was. We did get to see Paul McCartney in concert in Raleigh several years ago.
As close to a Beatles concert as we'll ever get.
– Neal Moffitt, Coleridge
It was Christmas 1965 and I was 9 years old. Today, the "tragedy" of my favorite Beatle, Paul McCartney, chipping a front tooth makes me laugh, but as a 9-year-old fan, I was devastated.
If memory serves me correctly, he was riding his moped in Liverpool, not paying attention, when he wrecked, his face smacked the pavement and his tooth went through his lip, chipping it and requiring several stitches in his lip. I was spending the night with my older sister's friend and we started crying as if our world was ending.
Her mother allowed us to make Rice Krispies treats to take our minds off of the tragedy marring handsome Paul's face. What would he do? As we ate our treats, we wondered if he would have plastic surgery or be scarred for life?
To Paul, it was not a big deal, but in my small world it was. If you ever wondered why The Beatles suddenly started sporting moustaches, wonder no more. To cover up the scar and stitches, Paul grew the moustache he was sporting on the cover of the "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" album. John, George and Ringo followed suit and the rest is history.

I was among the 32,164 who gathered for the evening concert at D.C. Stadium in Washington, D.C., to see and hear The Beatles on Aug. 15, 1966, during their final U.S. tour.
There was no problem being able to see the four adorable English musicians on the playing field stage from any vantage point of the stadium. Concert tickets ranged from $3 for the top-most upper deck seats to $5 for lower deck ones. My girlfriends and I had paid $5 for third-base area seating.
There was no dilemma in hearing the music of The Remains ("Diddy Wah Diddy"), Bobby Hebb ("Sunny"), The Cyrkle ("Red Rubber Ball") and The Ronettes ("Be My Baby").
But, when The Beatles finally took the stage as 1960s-era cameras flashed, there was a major problem. My personal experience and news accounts, too, attest that one just couldn't hear.
And why not? It was because of girls screaming in a frenzy when The Beatles appeared and began to sing one of their tunes like "Day Tripper," "Yesterday," "I Wanna Be Your Man" and "Nowhere Man."
I was not one of the screaming maniacs fans (at least I don't recall it that way).
What I remember vividly from the concert was that I looked at disbelief, with my mouth wide opened in surprise, at my girlfriends who seemed to be the loudest of the screamers, drowning out any remnants of music from the field. The actual presence of The Beatles had transformed my traditionally, mild-mannered friends (we had all been on our high school newspaper staff together and were now in college).
Although I couldn't hear The Beatles that evening, I rejoiced that I was in their presence.
I was devastated when they broke up four years later … and stunned when John Lennon was killed in 1980. We lost George Harrison in 2001. I've been keeping up with Ringo Starr, but I'll take advantage of any chance today to hear Paul McCartney sing.

Let it be (strange)One of the clues people cite as proof Paul McCartney died in a car crash and his fellow Beatles covered it up comes from the song, "I'm so Tired." When you play the lyrics backwards, it says, "'Paul is dead." Also, many people thought that towards the end of "Strawberry Fields" they could hear John Lennon saying, "I buried Paul." John claims he was saying, "cranberry sauce." Paul's song, "Yesterday," voted most popular song of the century by a BBC poll, had music written before the lyrics. Paul used the working title, "scrambled eggs," while composing the song. The "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club" album cover, voted by Rolling Stones magazine as the greatest of all time, showed a crowd of people The Beatles most admired, among them actress Marilyn Monroe, writer Edgar Allan Poe, boxer Sonny Liston, physicist Albert Einstein and occultist Aleister Crowley. Many people thought "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" was a thinly-veiled reference to LSD, based on the first letters of each word. John said hallucinogenic drugs had nothing to do with the song's origin. Rather, it was inspired by his son Julian's nursery school drawing of a classmate. "Come Together" originated as a campaign slogan for LSD guru Timothy Leary, who was running for governor of California against Ronald Reagan in the 1970 election. Two Beatles songs were transmitted into space, "Across the Universe" in 2008 by NASA and "Good Day Sunshine" in 2005 during a Paul McCartney concert to the International Space Station. "Send my love to the aliens," Paul added.

Snark Quote 1.
Miss Snark writes "I look for short story publications before I look for contest winners just FYI."
Snark Quote 2.
Miss Snark asserts "if someone tells me they've been published by a small house that uses POD the burden of proof for "is it crap" shifts to them."
Where do Internet literary sites fall in this debate? A lot of reputable magazines keep online versions (Mississippi Review, McSweeney's, etc...) and some online sites publish quality fiction and have the same editorial process of submission. The question I guess is, what do you see when a query letter has publications from online journals? Is that still looked on as being silly, or are online ventures (like OpiumMagazine and Pindleyboz, who coincidentally launch print versions from their online content) gaining some ground in respectability?
We need to be clear about how I read query letters first. I read your cover letter. Mostly they are crap but I ignore that cause most authors can't write good cover letters to save their lives. What I want to know first in the cover letter is what I'm reading. Is it a mystery? Chick lit? YA thriller? Then I want to know just enough about the plot to make me think it sounds interesting (the hook).
Then I want to know if you know anything about publishing, or if you've been published by someone who looked at your work critically. This is where the part about contests comes in, and now, the question about internet literary sites.
The key part of any publishing credential is whether the work was subjected to editorial review. If anyone can post to the Killer Yapp Dog and Pony Show book chat...those posts are not subject to editorial review and they carry no weight with me.
Contests are problematic in many times that I don't know who judged them. If you win a contest and you know who the judge was, say so. A contest judged by Stephen King is going to carry more weight than a contest judged by some anonymous literary agent (Miss Snark includes herself in that stellar group).
Which brings us to online sites. If I don't know the publication (and there are a lot of small literary mags I don't know off the top of my head) and IF YOUR SAMPLE PAGES ARE GOOD, I google your writing credentials. When I look at the site and see the submission requirements I make a decision about whether I think it has merit.
Remember though, writing trumps everything. You can have no, zero, zip, zilch writing credits and if you write well, I'll read it. You can have a million publication credits, and have won every contest you entered, and if I think the writing sux, you're not getting into the pool.

Excellent information here, Miss Snark. I posted a link for my writer friends who are in the query stage, and I think this will be a help to many. Thanks!

What if, in the past, let's say right out of highschool, you went through an indie publisher who used POD, claimed to be a real publisher, but instead was a vanity press.
Let's say that even though you never mention it in your cover letter, the published book (now out of print) is the first thing that comes up when you google the name.
I really want to know if this would hurt someone's chance.

You've got to hand it to them.
Consistently first class stories, beautifully written and accompanied by the best photography. Vanity Fair is an editorial-led magazine. And it is the complete advertisers' package.
The advertising pages in VF are beautiful to look at - they don't yell at you, they beckon seductively.
It takes nearly a whole month to enjoy this magazine properly. I love it.
I also love the way they use their web site. vanityfair.com is really a PR and marketing tool masquerading as a full service magazine site. The site is free, but the magazine leaks articles, on to it one by one as promotion for the current and upcoming print issue.
There's nothing particularly radical in that. But when your site content is as strong as vanityfair.com you can take a different tactical approach.
Their approach is to use PR to drive print sales, which of course is where they make the real money.
They do this regularly. Sometimes it's an Annie Leibovitz cover like pre-internet the one of a pregnant Demi Moore.
Today it was a Christopher Hitchens piece about letting himself be subjected to water boarding. theage.com.au lapped it up.
The story was a reprint from The Guardian, two days ago. The Guardian writer had taken Vanity Fair's bait ... and their hook and their line and their sinker too. But theage didn't mind.
I can't understand why theage didn't just write its own version. They did do a video piece. But the way video is presented on the Fairfax sites it really just looks like an afterthought to the serious work of putting words together.
By the way, if you're ever looking for Vanity Fair in an Australian newsagent you'll need to look in the "Women's" section.
Funny that ...

Classic boat association celebrates completion of $30,000 workshop upgrade
14th November 2017
Source: The Lakes Mail | By: David Stewart | Posted: November 14, 2017
Lake Macquarie Classic Boat Association has hosted a morning tea to celebrate the completion of work on its $30,000 workshop floor.
The new concrete surface, made possible by a state government grant issued under the Community Building Partnership program, has been installed in the group's No 2 workshop at Rathmines.
Member for Lake Macquarie, Greg Piper, was integral to the group's successful application.
"So this morning tea is to thank Greg for his input," association president Bill Coote said.
The group, which is like a Men's Shed but also welcomes women, has 54 members including four shipwrights.
Among their recent successes was the restoration of a 14-foot rowboat designed and built by Bill Fisher in Putney, in 1930.

Despite the advancement of science and technology in this century, many African republics have incessantly clung to belief systems that are a thwart to human progress in this age of enlightenment. To begin with, it is fateful that the values of science education have not been considered a necessity by various governments in many sub-Saharan republics of Africa. The resulting effect of this negligence is that poor public understanding of science is so massive—allowing wide room for the spread of superstitious ideas into the minds of society.
Regrettably, in most of the African republics in the Sahara region—where the majority of citizens live below the poverty line, with an ever-widening gap between the rich and poor, and with governments that are not concerned with the welfare of the people because of corruptions, impunities, and dictatorships—superstitious ideas often turn into something so lethal that if the population is not sensitized against such beliefs there are bound to be increasing human rights violations in the coming years and beyond.
First, HIV/AIDS is one of the nightmares in the region. It is estimated that 22.5 million people live with the disease; of these, 2.3 million are children. During 2009, an estimated 1.3 million people died from AIDS. This situation led to many children orphaned at a young age. As a result teenagers are left with the task of looking after families; most girls resort to prostitution and a majority of young men engage in crimes just to fend for the family.
Unluckily, despite the effort of science to let HIV-positive individuals lead normal lives by providing anti-retroviral drugs, which delays the virus from turning into AIDS, religious bigots and traditional witch doctors have been using this epidemic to exploit superstitious beliefs, thwarting this positive effort to help the human race.
Recently, the situation of Loliondo stunned many people. Loliondo is a village situated in the Nyorongoro district of Arusha in northern Tanzania. In Kenya, everywhere you went, you could not fail to see posters and signs of this place advertised. This village became famous when word spread throughout sub-Saharan African countries that retired Lutheran pastor Ambelike Mwasapile had found a miracle cure that many believed could cure incurable diseases like HIV/AIDS, cancer, ulcers, and many more. Ambelike, who is widely known as Babu wa Loliondo, used a tree from the Apocynacea family called Carissa edulis to make his famous herb, which was administered in a cup.
Suddenly, it became a shock when patients were taken out of bed in hospitals and rushed to Loliondo. Drinking the herb invoked the superstitious nature of many HIV/AIDS victims and they believed they had been healed; hence almost all abandoned taking anti-retroviral drugs. However, this fakery did not last when victims who had abandoned taking the anti-retroviral drugs started dying and a large number deteriorated in health.
Despite such kinds of failure, many religious institutions in Africa have copied this fakery and continued to organize miracle healing of HIV/AIDS. Sadly, after such healing crusades most individuals are told to throw away anti-retroviral drugs. As much as there is a struggle to help and sustain people living with the virus, irrationality advanced by religious dogmas and traditional societies has continued to usher people into deathbeds even when they could live longer lives.
Many people who have been liberated from irrational beliefs in Africa have wondered whether our great grandparents believed knowledge was expensive and decided to plant these irrational, superstitious ideas into the minds of younger generations, causing unwanted human crises up to this century. The situation in Africa, caused by irrational beliefs, is so disturbing that if it is not tackled by rationalists, freethinkers, skeptics, and others who have been liberated from the dogmas that thwart knowledge, many human crises will be massive in the upcoming years.
That is the reason why, at CFI–Kenya, we have held so dearly to the anti-superstition campaign. This year we managed to organize four major community-based workshops where we expressed concerns about how irrational beliefs were becoming a thwart to the fight against the HIV/AIDS epidemic. We demonstrated this by giving examples of the Loliondo saga, now widely known because of the crisis it brought, which was publicized in various media houses. For example, we printed a piece from the Star, which covered the story well (http://www.the-star.co.ke/national/national/30533-aids-patients-reject-arvs-die-after-loliondo-visit), and also one from Allafrica.com (http://allafrica.com/stories/201103280148.html and http://allafrica.com/stories/201105241304.html). We printed many copies and distributed them during these workshops.
We organized debates about the issue on the campuses where we have established movements. The University of Nairobi Academic and Freethinking club organized a debate sponsored by CFI–Kenya on 22 October, 2011, with the title, "Does religion kill HIV/AIDS Victims in the name of God?" This debate had a controversial title and the attendance was overwhelming. Nevertheless, the message was clear and many, even the religious who attended, saw the need to change perceptions. This approach was the best towards extending our mission. The Moi Freethinkers at Moi University also organized two workshops and closed with their annual meeting.
In the month of November, the humanist movements in East Africa realized that if they don't double their efforts and give much of their time to the empowerment of the various populations, then irrationality would soon threaten to consume the human population because of widespread superstition.
As a result, from the 25th to 28th of November 2011, East African humanist leaders gathered in Kampala, Uganda, to discuss the way forward and how humanist organizations could work together to spread the ideals of reason and science to combat widespread irrationality. Here, leaders from Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania drafted a two-year work plan (2012–2013) that would make sure their objectives are met within this framework. This included organizing joint meetings, mobilization, workshops, and conferences within the countries of East Africa.
This plan also included going into schools and institutions of higher learning where we could launch debating clubs and sponsor publications. In Kenya, the Center for Inquiry–Kenya was given the task of coordinating these activities; hence I was appointed the country coordinator for these events. Jackson Ezekiel, who is the chairperson of Tanzania Humanist Movement, was chosen to coordinate Tanzania, and in Uganda, Betty Nassaka, who is the head of International Humanist and Ethical Youth Organization, will act as the chair of this process. Also in the meeting, a resource mobilization plan was drafted outlining how the involved groups would solicit for resources to make sure that this mission is effective within the two-year plan.
To add, I also managed to meet students from Dar-es-salam University in Tanzania and Makerere University in Uganda who were interested in our On Campus program. Already they are in the process of starting On Campus movements and I have been invited to give a talk to a mass of students in February 2012 at Dar-es-Salam University.
I believe that with this initiative taken by the humanist body in East Africa, a lot of impact is going to be felt and we shall be steps ahead in the fight against irrationality in the two-year plan. Again, this is going to give CFI–Kenya an advantage in spreading the ideals of the Center for Inquiry beyond borders. We hope for the best in the year 2012 and beyond.

Ladies and Deviants...this is the film that started my long road down the Italian horror highway!
Thanks for watching!
It was back in the mid-80's when I first happened upon one of Argento's greatest films sitting there on that one fateful shelf in a West Coast Video. Even tho it was actually the terribly edited version called Creepers, it certainly was enough to fuel my Italian horror-lust. Also...Iron Maiden!
Phenomena was altogether a simple premise with all these convoluted details. Young Jennifer Corvino, played by the breath-takingly beautiful Jennifer Connelly in only her second film ever, has the fantastical gift of communicating with the insect world. That alone is a pretty intriguing story that could go any possible way. However, this is an Argento film...so, there has to be murders committed by a mysterious killer. Jennifer teams up with the always awesome Donald Pleasence as Professor John McGregor (that name alone inspires badassery) in order to discover who is behind all these annoying murders and, most importantly, what her sleepwalking means. To reveal anymore would be a severe crime. So, let's check it out together...shall we?
Please enjoy the full uncut version of Dario Argento's Phenomena!
Thanks for watching!

For those who were doubting that Media Molecule's follow-up to their first game LittleBigPlanet would fail to achieve the mass success that they had initially hoped for, you may want to hold off on criticism. After a record-setting launch last week, the developer has announced that LittleBigPlanet 2 is already enjoying more concurrent users than the first title ever achieved. What does this mean for the game? This could be just the beginning of never-before-seen levels of community creation and content.
There's no question that the fanbase surrounding the original game was as loyal and inventive as any other, but for many players, the idea of putting in the amount of time and concentration to create their own levels proved to be too daunting.
There was certainly no shortage of inventive programmers who managed to do things that surprised even the developers, but a large number stuck to the levels that shipped with the game and called it a day.
It would seem that things have changed with the sequel. After LBP2 premiered at the top of the sales charts in the UK, it seemed that the success would mirror that of the first game, with a first week only "95 sales short of" that of LBP. But after less than a week in the hands of fans, the amount of people playing the game is blowing previous records out of the water.
Media Molecule's David Smith expressed the team's delight when speaking with Eurogamer, reiterating that the news couldn't be better for the game's future:
"The user count is actually quite crazy - we've already massively outstripped our LBP1 record for total users online at once. And that's just with North America and a few other territories.
"I think some people [at Sony] would be waving certain things at me if I gave the actual numbers, but it's significantly higher."
This is fantastic news for fans, since the size and activity of the community is directly related to the amount of new and inspired content. Given that the follow-up title has added voice recording and writing, the fact that more owners are willing to spend their time experimenting proves that they may have been underestimated. It would seem that once again, LBP fans are showing just how creative gamers can be.
We can't forget that the customization tools are in addition to an entirely separate story mode, so the game shouldn't be thought of as merely a budding developer's toolkit. We've spent some time with the game, and while it isn't perfect, it is a step forward in many respects.
The game's staying power will ultimately be in the community support, and that level of responsibility placed on the users takes some time to build. The fact that the sequel is truly picking up where the first game left off in terms of activity is a great sign going forward.
Since the activity can really only be expected to increase at this point, Media Molecule may have done the impossible, and gotten even more people to really try their hand at playing, creating, and sharing.
You can join the ranks of sackboy-makers by picking up your own copy of LittleBigPlanet 2 today for the PlayStation 3.

Please accelerate your questions for advertisement to firstname.lastname@example.com. (Questions may be edited.)
Photo by Christina Paige
I accept accustomed a bells allurement that specifies "cocktail attire" for the commemoration and reception. My analysis shows that this can beggarly any cardinal of things. I appear from Oregon, area academic accoutrements agency allotment one's best flannel and abrading the mud off one's boots. My wife has any cardinal of beauteous dresses that would fit the bill, but I don't akin own a suit. Is this time to buy one? Please accord me some tips for abyssal the bouldered shoals of able cocktail attire.
Thank you for your question!
The abstraction of cocktail accoutrements originated in the U.S. during Prohibition—natural timing, accustomed the irony built-in to the blue-blooded experiment: There was cogent cadre overlap amid the movement in favor of women accepting to vote and the movement adjoin anybody accepting to drink, and the abstinent suffragettes acknowledging the 18th and 19th amendments aback chased their daughters into speakeasies and such. They created the Drinking Woman—"an ideal abiding in newfound concepts of individuality and a abnegation of Edwardian changeable functions," as the Accoutrement Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art puts it:
At cocktail hour in 2014, a developed can consistently canyon aggregation by cutting a little atramentous dress. The civil agnate of the LBD is a jacket, a necktie, and a nice brace of trousers. If you can't be confused to buy a clothing for this occasion, abrasion that, and abrasion it in the spirit of a developed adult at ease, not of a boyhood tugging on his collar at Model U.N., or of an allowance authoritative considerately abandonment his retirement party.
Herewith, a cryptanalysis of added ambiguous dress codes that I, and bodies I know, accept encountered on invitations.
"Lounge suit." This baffles some Americans active in England, Rhodes advisers and comatose brokers alike. A lounge clothing is aloof a suit: In the 1800s, English men of the high classes wore strict, abstaining apron coats for assignment (if they worked) and lounge accoutrement to play. The aboriginal lounge clothing was alleged so because, bendable and slack, it was beat to loll about the country or to relax at home. The lounge clothing "was absolutely not adequate at the coffer or the firm, nor at church, nor at awful academic amusing contest in the daytime, nor for annihilation at all in the evening," Anne Hollander wrote in Sex and Suits. In the 1900s, classes beneath the high classes—people who hadn't had the adventitious to lounge—started cutting them out and about, for business and pleasure, and actuality we are.
On one level, every affair in recorded history has been a Dress to Get Laid party, with the barring of some wakes and brises.
"Fancy dress." This is a Britishism acceptation "costume party." Some British association of New York City assert on application this byword on invitations, admitting its ambiguity on these shores. Some of those bodies do it carefully to admonish us absolutely how British they are, as if we're declared to be impressed. (I say to them, "This is America, pal. Learn the language.") If you're anytime in agnosticism about whether a affair advertised as a "fancy-dress party" is a accoutrement affair or a academic occasion, again appearance up cutting a tuxedo, but with a absurd accent on hand, such as a feathered affectation or a advancement bowtie.
"Highland dress." This is a Scottish thing: You don't accept to abrasion a kilt, but if you own one, it's time to get your tartan-flaunting on. Some Scotsmen abrasion annihilation beneath their kilts. Some Scotsmen adopt boxer briefs. No accurate Scotsman argues adjoin the argumentation of the audacious as an ideal underthing.
"Grown and y." This is a atramentous thing, and Urban Dictionary's lexicographical d is in this instance tight, so here's a agilely edited extract of its arch definition: Don't akin anticipate of assuming up at my action in billowing jeans, Air Jordans, platinum chains, and an XXXL white T-shirt. If you're not in tailored Armani or Versace, break your ass home! Also, unless it's neo-soul, attenuate groove, or old school, you won't apprehend it here. Appetite radio hip-hop? Go to that white kids' club in the suburbs.
"Dress to impress." The absolute accent on affectation identifies the hosts as apparent douchebags. Consider alienated this party.
"Dress to Get Laid." Since aback in the day aback Bret and Lethem and Ms. Donna Tartt and their aeon were enrolled at Bennington College, acceptance accept acclaimed an abominable agnostic ritual of this name. Aback advancing to appear the debauch, you should brainstorm on the actuality that, on one level, every affair in the recorded history of amusing activity has been a Dress to Get Laid party, with the barring of some wakes and brises. Abrasion a T-shirt and jeans. Or a kilt and a jockstrap.
"Festive anniversary attire." You may be tempted to abrasion article corny. Try not to accede to temptation. DON'T abrasion a Santa hat unless you access at the affair in a sleigh. DON'T akin anticipate about a bonbon pikestaff in your abridged or a poinsettia on your lapel; these accessories would be, in their hokum, alone hardly beneath abhorrent than a mistletoe belt buckle. DON we now no accoutrement added gay than a red-and-green cummerbund.
"[Fill-in-the-blank] chic." Miami accident planners are accepted to possess, amid added vices, a addiction of declaring "tropical chic" dress codes. Native-born Herald reporters and Eurotrash art collectors akin apperceive how to adapt this: linen pants, no socks. A son of San Antonio, anecdotic a bright area the guys wore "Western chic," recalls the footfalls of a charge of Luccheses: "It was actual J.R. Ewing—a lot of jean-and-jacket combinations, bandannas, turquoise, o ties, absolute tuxedos, and Texas tuxedos." Last ages the association folio of the Times-Picayune told New Orleans ladies what to accomplish of "summer chic" and "saucy chic," adage of the latter, "I apprehend a lot of low-cut shirts. … Possibly leather, too. And if that's what the host is activity for, so be it." As you apprehend this, invitations mandating "Yuletide chic" accoutrements for ambitious eggnog tipplers are sitting in mailboxes all beyond the country.
This columnist has alloyed animosity about these developments. Of course, we consistently acknowledge affable reminders about aggravating climates and difficult terrain. (If a bells is captivated on the bank at a bank resort, you appetite a heads-up, so that you apperceive to abrasion baiter shoes with your failing clothing for the account of accepting the absorption you'll charge to balk auberge aegis at 3 a.m.) And, of course, we can't absolutely blame of the helpmate and benedict who—true story—explicitly beat seersucker on the allurement to their Cape Cod wedding. (They were aflutter that their guests would appearance apparel from the fabric—a affectionate of annoyance appearance of preppy appropriation. They were aggravating to save guests from themselves.)
But the "____ chic" blueprint prompts apprehensive worries: Isn't this rather controlling? Isn't it somehow vain? Is the host aggravating to bandy a affair or administer a photo shoot?
"Classy." A aide looks aback on a New Year's Eve affair at a friend's apartment: "The acquaintance was an accident artist who additionally does autogenous decorating, so aback she wrote 'classy,' I anticipate anybody affectionate of got the idea. She's a Actual Certain Type. (Loves cutting sequins on a Monday, awe-inspiring best hats, etc.) For the best allotment the ladies wore little atramentous dresses or nice best dresses with pumps. The bodies wore on-ups and jeans. Which, IDK? It didn't assume like they approved that hard."
"Business casual." We all apperceive the adage: To dress for success is to dress for the job you want, not the job you have. That is about a acceptable policy—but accept you anytime advised photos of media moguls assuming to relax at Herb Allen's anniversary thing? Alone a base careerist would cede his appearance to challenge the ballsy shlubbery of Sun Valley business casual. It's awful—pro-shop ski vests over close shirts and Rupert Murdoch beneath a baseball cap and worse. The photos present affirmation that some guys who abrasion business accoutrement all the time artlessly accept no abstraction what to do aback caught by their constraints. Many of those zillionaires attending unemployed, and unemployable.
"Smart casual." The abstraction is to account the spirit of business accidental after attractive stupid. Abrasion an OCBD, chinos, old-school canvas sneakers, and—it's a abashment to accept to spell it out—a belt.
"Artsy casual." You should abrasion a sack jacket, an untucked polo shirt, aphotic jeans, and afresh able covering shoes, and if at all accessible appearance up hardly stoned.
"Casual cocktail." This is like a dog blare cogent women to abrasion flats, Tory Burch, probs. (h/t Shannon Elizabeth)
"Evening casual." Hunh?
"California semi-casual." No shirt no shoes no service, so accompany forth a shirt, but don't bend it, bro: Roll it lengthwise to additional yourself some creases.

After yesterday's legislative proposal from the European Commission for visa liberalisation for Kosovo, Ulrike Lunacek, EP Vice President in charge of Western Balkans and EP's rapporteur for Kosovo, stated:
"The European Commission's long awaited green light for visa liberalisation with Kosovo brings joy to Kosovo citizens and all of us who have been supporting visa free travel for this youngest European state for so many years. It is a very good new momentum for the EU integration process. This long overdue step will lead to the end of the unacceptable isolation of Kosovo citizens since the freedom to travel has been enjoyed by the citizens of all other countries in the region since the end of 2010.
This roadmap for visa liberalisation is also an important demand in my recent Kosovo report which was adopted in February of this year by a large majority of the European Parliament. It is high time for Kosovo citizens to be able to enjoy the freedom to visit friends and family in the EU for three months, like all other citizens of the region. The feeling of being "locked-in" has to be over as soon as possible. The two remaining benchmarks can be fulfilled by Kosovo soon, now it is up for us in the European Parliament and for the Council to follow suit and make the Commission's green light an open road for Kosovars.
Visa liberalisation is not a right, it is merit based. The government in Pristina has done a lot in fulfilling the requested benchmarks. It is now up to the Ministers of Interior of the EU Member States and the European Parliament to stick to promises and agree. Therefore I call on the Kosovo government and political parties to now invest in a common effort with the Assembly of Kosovo, with civil society and prominent Kosovars to deliver a positive image of Kosovo in the EU Member States to convince the 28 ministers of interior in the Council. I am optimistic and the EP will strongly support Kosovo.
Yesterday's good news from UEFA – Kosovo has become the 55th member of European football's governing body – was another important step to end the isolation of Kosovo athletes, artists and citizens. It is also a boost for the full international recognition of Kosovo statehood and its full inclusion in all UN bodies."

UPDATE: Horse slaughter back on hold for now: a federal appeals court on Monday granted an emergency request by animal protection groups to temporarily block the U.S. government from conducting inspections of horses destined for slaughter. http://reut.rs/17Daa0C
(Washington, DC) – The Animal Welfare Institute is deeply disappointed that a U.S. District Judge has allowed for the resumption of horse slaughter in the United States for the first time since plants in Illinois and Texas were closed under state law in 2007. While AWI will step up its efforts in Congress for a federal ban on horse slaughter, we hope that the appeals court will reconsider the overwhelming evidence that horse slaughter is harmful to the environment, public welfare, and the welfare of America's horses, and reinstate the restraining order before any horses are slaughtered.
"Like the majority of Americans, we are deeply disappointed in this reversal by the judge, but it doesn't change the fact that opposition to horse slaughter is stronger than ever and growing," said Chris Heyde, deputy director of government and legal affairs for AWI. "Since news broke that a plant in New Mexico was going to apply for a permit to slaughter horses, opposition has come from the Governor, Attorney General, and Land Commissioner of New Mexico, the President of the United States, and the U.S. House and Senate Appropriations Committees. It is time to stop playing politics and swiftly pass the Safeguard American Food Exports Act (SAFE Act) to put an end to this cruel and predatory industry."
AWI will continue working with the growing coalition of horse advocates, veterinarians, horse owners, Native Americans, and legislators on passage of the SAFE Act. Without this important bill, horses are at risk of being sent to slaughter in the United States and abroad.

Stefan Hansson claimed that the striker told him that he was keen on rejoining the Bianconeri before he retires – but the 32-year-old says that the pair have never even met.
Paris Saint-Germain star Zlatan Ibrahimovic has dismissed the suggestion that he wants to return to Juventus.
Italian publication Tuttosport recently published an interview with Swedish coach Stefan Hansson, who claimed to have befriended the striker at Malmo and suggested that the 32-year-old wants to rejoin the Serie A champions, whom he played for between 2004 and 2006.
However, Ibrahimovic has now claimed that not only is he uninterested in going back to Juve, he does not even know Hansson.
"A person named Stefan Hansson has been making comments about me," the Sweden international said via his personal app Zlatan Unplugged.
"I would like to clarify that I do not know this person. I have never met him, he has never been my coach and we have never talked on Skype.
"Normally, I would not even comment on matter like this, but his comments have reached unreasonable proportions, so I felt compelled to react."
Ibrahimovic, who netted twice in PSG's 2-2 Ligue 1 draw against Reims at the weekend, has a contract with the Ligue 1 champions until June 2016.

SHSU Researchers Evaluate GPS Monitoring on Sex Offenders of Arizona
By Andy Choi
A team of researchers at the Sam Houston State University (SHSU) has conducted a study on usage of GPS technology for the monitoring of sex offenders.
Dr. Gaylene Armstrong and Beth Freeman in the study report titled 'Examining GPS Monitoring Alerts Triggered by Sex Offenders: The Divergence of Legislative Goals and Practical Applications in Community Corrections' have scrutinized the effect of a state law in Arizona, wherein adult sex offenders who have been convicted of committing dangerous crimes against children and then sentenced to community supervision, have to be monitored with the help of GPS systems. Over a two year period the scientists monitored sex offenders in Maricopa County AZ and concluded that the GPS technology should be considered as a tool instead of using it as a control mechanism.
Dr. Armstrong, who is also the Research Director of the Correctional Management Institute of Texas, has revealed that there was a discrepancy between the legislative objectives and the practical usage of the enforced GPS monitoring program and that GPS technology was very much restricted in its usage and should be envisioned as a tool. The study indicated that most of the equipment related alerts were produced due to absence of satellite signals, than due to actual violations by the offender and rather than being a help to probation officers, they proved to be a nuisance and increased their workload considerably. This might also lead to situations where the probation officers become complacent and ignore the alerts which would lead to fatal situations.
Community corrections supervisors have assessed that almost 70% of the alerts were false and are mostly technology-related. The report indicates that training should also be given to the Probation Officers on the usage of GPS technology along with framing of written policies and guidelines to facilitate its enforcement. The study also revealed that GPS technology had two major disadvantages. The GPS technology was still in its infancy stages and was underdeveloped and also that it was not cost-effective.

Schneider Electric was delighted to sign on as the first-ever Title Sponsor of the 2013 Paris Marathon, which took place on Sunday, 7 April, with over 40,000 participants (including the 477 runners representing Team Schneider Electric!) in the challenging race that spans 42.195 km. This four-year partnership enables us to raise awareness of the importance of energy efficiency for all, while providing us unparalleled brand exposure.
As Aaron Davis, Chief Marketing Officer of Schneider Electric, said, it's 'the perfect opportunity to link our brand to the spirit and values embodied by the timeless challenge of the marathon, but with a focus on the people, the technologies, and the ability to do things differently. In the long term, our ambition is to make this marathon the first energy-positive race in the world'.
During the pre-marathon Running Expo, and the marathon itself, participants and visitors learned how our innovative energy management solutions improve personal comfort and energy usage to make homes, workplaces, and cities more efficient, liveable, and sustainable.
We were also able to feature a new technology that collects kinetic energy from footsteps on pavement or floor tiles, and transforms it into electricity to power low-energy applications. Our partner, Pavegen Systems Ltd, installed these energy-harvesting tiles across the marathon route to capture the energy of the runners. Nearly 5,000 watt hours were generated and used to charge display screens and electronic signs during the marathon.
Making a difference in the community
Thanks to all who participated, the 2013 Schneider Electric Paris Marathon has become the first race to generate useable energy, not just expend it. Plus, the Schneider Electric Foundation was able to donate €60,000 to Habitat et Humanisme, an organization that provides better energy access and awareness to underprivileged households in Paris.
Expect to hear more about our efforts to improve efficiency and meet the energy demands of the future as our partnership with the Paris Marathon continues!

Art-Lantic Ave. Comes Alive For First Fridays In Bixby Knolls Tonight

We're masters of the fishtail braid and the topknot, but we're follicle-ly challenged when it comes to dealing with our split ends. Luckily, this reparative conditioner performs the heroic task of actually repairing our split ends. You'll start seeing a difference after three uses, and over time your hair will look and feel stronger and healthier.
I've use this conditioner with high hopes on two occasions. It's really just OK. It's not going to seal your split ends (can anything really do that?), but it will make your hair feel soft, nourished, and very manageable, too. It's good, but don't believe the hype and expect a miracle. You're better off just getting a trim :-)3
While this seems to be a good conditioner, I am not 100% it lives up to its miraculous claims to reverse split ends. Also, the list of highly chemical-laden ingredients gives me pause. My ends are still split and dry, but it is a darn good conditioner...just not sure it is worth the chemical load...3
I was so excited to get a sample of this conditioner. I have used Nexxus products before and really enjoyed them. Plus, my hair is quite damaged right now (long overdue for a cut!) and I was hoping this would help it look better.
When I used it it smelled amazing! Right after I was with my nieces and nephews and my 5yo nephew kept coming and smelling my hair and saying how good it smelled, so cute! It also made my hair feel really soft. It didn't really help the appearance of my hair,but it might just be too far gone for help! I would use this again just because of how amazing it made my hair smell!

Ligteringen's debut theological work investigates the messages of the Apostles and the impact on modern Christians.
This slender book works to negate ignorance: "If we are ignorant about the gospel, we are prone to be misled and can easily be taken in by lies." To do so, Ligteringen calls on such New Testament staples as the persecution of Paul, the letters of Peter ("celebrating the sacrifice of Jesus, which brings us to life and glory"), and the Gospel of John ("God's love is complete in Jesus, so we must emulate him." The book maintains a steady message of love for Christ and the avoidance of sin: "what is waiting for the person who does deliberately sin…will be a terrible judgment of fire." Ligteringen directly addresses readers with some frequency, as in a chapter on the book of Revelation: "Our heroes have been hounded across generations, but let us stand boldly with them, upholding what is right and adding our voices to theirs—not to be intimidated by powerful and wicked types who would pervert the truth and who would suppress the truth—let us declare the truth." His enthusiasm never wavers, which will likely strike a chord with a similarly devout crowd. Along with its heavy emphasis on Paul—to whom nearly half the book is devoted—the book seems to take his advice of avoiding deeper arguments: "Paul refers to foolish and stupid arguments, which produce quarrels. If we want to teach, we must not quarrel." Not to be taken as a broad historical investigation, the book is instead a rallying call for the faithful, those who wouldn't disagree that "We must repent, be baptized in faith and understand that we enter a new and eternal life with God, through Jesus."
A brief, upbeat endorsement of the Apostles' faith in Christ that should please the firmly faithful.

Someone encountering the Internet for the first time might be forgiven for assuming it was created specifically for teenagers. Indeed, the Internet could reasonably be said to have been aging backwards since its birth – the domain first of scientists and the military, then of university students in the 1990s and now children and teenagers.
Teachers who include media literacy in their classrooms often face issues that don't arise in other subjects. Nothing illustrates this better than the issue of diversity in media. It's not unreasonable for teachers to see the topic as a can of worms and be concerned about offending students and their parents – not to mention worrying about what the students themselves might say. At the same time, it's a topic that is simply too important to be ignored: what we see in media hugely influences how we see others, ourselves and the world. As a result, an ability to analyze media depictions of diversity is not only a key element of being media literate, it's essential to understanding many of the social issues and concerns that we face as citizens. That's why Media Awareness Network has developed That's Not Me – a new online tutorial for professional development to help educators and community leaders approach this issue through key concepts of media literacy.
If anyone still doubts that youth need to learn how to evaluate online information, those doubts should have been dispelled by a recent hoax perpetrated by the group called the Yes Men. This group, which has a history of staging fake press conferences, decided to draw attention to Canada's position at the Copenhagen conference on climate change by creating a number of fake Web sites purporting to be, among others, the Copenhagen summit site, the Wall Street Journal, and Environment Canada's site. While it didn't take long for Environment Canada to make a statement exposing the hoax, by that time many journalists had reported the story as fact and the story had been widely distributed by wire services.
"A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is still putting on its shoes."
We generally think of our kids' online and offline lives as being two separate things. In reality, they constantly overlap, flowing back and forth face-to-face in the schoolyard and through texts and social networks at home. But on the Internet there are lots of moral and ethical choices that don't have to be made offline.
There has been a lot of discussion in the past couple years among scientists, the public health community and the media about the impact of smoking and tobacco images in movies.
It's been almost fifteen years since Mark Prensky coined the term "digital native" to describe young people who have grown up with the Internet and digital media. In fact, the children who were born the year Prensky's book was published are now in high school. While for many, the public perception of young people taking to digital platforms like ducks to water persists – accompanied by the image of adults, particularly parents, who are seen (often by themselves) as hopelessly out of their depth – the question remains how close that image is to reality. Are Canadian youth truly digitally literate? And if they are not "digital natives" who effortlessly acquire their skills on their own or from peers, are students learning what they need from their parents or teachers?
As the Internet has become more and more central to our lives, our online and offline identities have become less and less separate. Where the Internet was once a place where nobody knew we were dogs and we lived Second Lives as customizable avatars, today we mostly surf the Web as ourselves.
The last few weeks have shed an unprecedented light on the use of digital media to spread and inspire hatred. Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, the perpetrator in the attacks on Canada's National War Memorial and Parliament buildings, appears to have been motivated in part by exposure to online postings by a self-described member of the Islamic state[1], and the Federal government has already stated that it intends to create tools to remove online content that promotes the "proliferation of terrorism."[2]
Whether it's to prepare for the future job market or just to manage the lives they already lead online, young Canadians need to be digitally literate. But what exactly is digital literacy, and how can we ensure that all Canadian youth are learning the digital skills they need?

NEW ORLEANS (WGNO)- On April 20th, 2010, one of the world's largest man-made disasters occurred on the Deepwater Horizon in the Gulf of Mexico.
The film follows the vital story that many have not seen: the story of the 126 crew members working aboard the Deepwater Horizon that day, caught in the most harrowing circumstances imaginable. They were skilled working men and women putting in a grueling shift in the hopes of getting back soon to their families and lives ashore. In an instant, they were faced with their darkest hour, pushed to summon the courage to battle an unstoppable inferno blaze in the middle of the ocean, and when all seemed lost, to save one another.
It's hard to forget the devastating blowout and nearly unstoppable oil leak that for 87 days, millions, watched, as 50,000 barrels of oil gushed from the sea floor into the Gulf of Mexico. It would become the largest accidental ocean oil spill in human history.
Deepwater Horizon is a survival story based on true events. Its premier was held Monday night (Sept. 19) at the Orpheum Theatre in downtown New Orleans.
The film stars Oscar-nominated heavyweight Mark Wahlberg, Golden Globe nominees Kate Hudson and Kurt Russell, along with Two time Oscar-nominee, John Malkovich, and Gina Rodriguez.
Wahlberg takes on the role of real-life Transocean chief electronics technician Mike Williams, a devoted family man who was overseeing the rig's computers and electrical systems on April 20th. Hudson plays his wife, Felicia, faced with the fear of not knowing if her husband would return home alive.
Kurt Russell takes on the role of Mr. Jimmy Harrell, who was the offshore installation manager of the Deepwater Horizon, essentially in charge of the entire crew.
John Malkovich plays Louisiana-based BP manager Donald Vidrine.
Gina Rodriguez plays Andrea Fleytas, who finds herself trapped with Mike Williams on the fire-choked rig with no easy escape.
The film was directed by Peter Berg, who said, "I don't want my films to be a spectator sport. I want them to be experienced on a personal level."
Eleven workers lost their lives on the Deepwater Horizon that day. They were Jason Anderson, Aaron Dale Burkeen, Donald "Duck" Clark, Stephen Ray Curtis, Roy Wyatt Kemp, Karl Dale Kleppinger Jr., Gordon Lewis Jones, Keith Blair Manuel, Dewey Revette, Shane Roshto, and Adam Weise.
Deepwater Horizon opens nationwide on September 30th.

While there are dozens of ways to ingest your cannabis, the most common (and classic) way is to roll yourself a number, light it and burn it down to the end. Unfortunately, some people have yet to master that skill and are still rolling pregnant dolphins. So to help, we've compiled some of our favorite how-to videos to help you get from pinner to perfect in this week's how-to version of Stoner MacGyver.
Let's start with this old hippie, rolling his old hippie joints and singing his self-indulgent hippie songs. But for all of the hippie-ness, this is pretty much the standard, basic joint that everyone should master. Already got this one down? Good. Let's move on.
Stop paying $6 for joints of shake just because they look nice. You can roll the exact same thing yourself with actual buds -- all it takes is practice. I spent about a week in Jamaica a few years back with a pack of these papers and a whole lot of Jamaican green perfecting this very simple, but very elegant method.
This dude,Michael Sessions
, is a true preacher of the Stoner MacGyver ways, passing on old-school methods like this one. A friend taught me the technique about ten years ago, and while it takes a few tries to master, it eliminates any excess paper that you'd otherwise be smoking. It's also a pretty cool parlor trick that, as the eloquent Sessions says, "is the fun part that the bitches love."
You don't really even have to know whoPierre Burton
is for this video to be funny. But understanding he's one of Canada's most respected authors, journalists and cannaseurs definitely adds to the hilarity. Though the "hydroponic" in this video looks like someone forgot to trim it, the old man lays it down and spins up a nice "coner."
Continue for more video tips about how to roll a joint.
Sessions' videos are just too good not to share another with you. In this one, he lays it down with his take on the cross joint. I dig the method, which (as he mentions) doesn't require as much tearing or construction as other approaches. My only criticism would be the Zig Zags. That shit is like notebook paper compared to other papers out there these days.
Joints too small? That happens. Remedy that situation with a huge chunk of nugget, some ska music, a half-dozen papers and this video from the good people over atDaily Smoker

This vid comes from Holland in more ways than one. Arvid from Coffeeshoppr gives a lesson on the rare (around these parts) Dutch tulip.
Practice enough and you'll get to this speed (some dispensary somewhere will eventually hire this dude).
We can't guarantee all products sent in will be reviewed here at Stoner MacGyver, but if you've got something you think is the greatest invention since sliced pot-bread, send us an e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Joe started working for Archie Comics in 1969 as a favor to his good friend Jon D'Agostino. Jon and Joe had worked together before doing work at Dell and Charlton. Joe was helping Jon out at Archie doing the inking over Jon, Stan Goldberg and Al Hartley. This is the only work that Joe ever did with Stan and Al. In all, Joe inked 374 pages from 1969- 1974 for Archie Comics. The pages shown below were found after extensive research by our good friend Dennis Rogers. Dennis is currently in the process of tracking down many more of these hard to find Archie stories that Joe worked on. Having only to go by the year of the comic, story title and number of pages inked, Dennis then had to find out which comic(s) that the stories were published in. Great job Denro!
Much like Joe's association with Jon D'Agostino, Joe worked the same way with Paul Reinman. Joe penciled a few stories for Marvel Comics that were Paul Reinman's account and were credited to Paul in Marvel's early days in 1961. He also penciled the following 4 stories for ACG that were inked and credited to Paul. Check out Joe's drawing of Paul in The Girl From Way Back.ACG COMICS INDEX: Joe Sinnott (pencils)/Paul Reinman (inks) 1961 MAGIC AGENT #2 (5pg) Mr.X Marks The Spot MAGIC AGENT #3 (9pg) Beware Of The Black Brigade ADVENTURES INTO THE UNKNOWN #157 (7pg) Guard This Man With Your LifeFORBIDDEN WORLDS #105 (8pg) The Girl From Way Back
