Oh. And one more tiny thing:
...I don't care what the fuck happens... there is no possible plot twist that could land me on "Team Jacob". Screw Jacob. Go "Team Edward"...
... I feel so dirty.
Nice review series Charles. I'm still not compelled to read Twilight but I completely agree with your point that people would fare far better if they were to turn off the shitty reality tv shows and crack open a book now and again... I'm just saying...
Happy Weekend, The Empress
Fuck. Now I have to read it. I trust your judgement, you're usually right...dick. I liked the guest blogs. Good touch.
As far as apperance is concerned your homoerotic dress might send more of the message you are looking for when trolling for dudes(sorry Jera)if you wear some nut huggers...think about it.
I read it on a plane last year and satified my curiousity. I wasn't compelled to read the others or see the movies. My 15 year old son read it after his English teacher set an assignment to read and report on something of a different genre to what they would normally read. I think he read 3 of the 4 books before losing interest. I agree that if it does the same as the "Harry Potter" books and gets kids reading it cant be all bad.
totally with you on the loss of a reading culture these days. Perhaps Harry Porter, Twilight, etc are not such a bad idea as you mentioned. At least they get to read (no matter the quality of the read) and they get to improve their spelling. Julia's spelling, horrendous as it is, may actually have been worse had she not read Twilight (shudders)
Thank you! I've been too stubborn to even consider the good points to Twilight, and haven't been able to control the disapproving glare I immediately send out to people who mention it. Which is pretty uncalled for, considering I used to be the biggest Anne Rice fan.
I liked the guest bloggers, but I definitely prefer your own Charles rants and reviews.
I love that you are Team Edward... awesome.
I honestly tried to read this book but it was so hard to get through while trying to read around all the Spam chunks, Patio dinners, and Yoo-Hoo that I kept vomiting onto the pages...
I will just take your word for it on this one.
I like your watch. And I agree with you (although I am a little sad about what vampire lite).
Great post!.. I still will not read it...Right now I am reading Jon Krakauer's book on Pat Tillman...
Great series, Charles. The fact that you challenged yourself in the first place shows a thirst for knowledge and a lack of fear to investigate points of view that you already have formed opinions of. To that end, you may want to read the others or anything else that fits the above criteria. Again, great critique, but then you fucked it up by posting a picture of that goofy metrosexual guy!
speaking as a grown ass woman who absolutely loves twilight, i really appreciate the open mind you kept when reveiwing the book. i don't read it because it's a literary work of art. i know it's not nearly the best written book. i like it because it's like an escape and it doesn't make me think.
with that out of the way, i fucking love all the twilight books. and i agree with the idea that anything that gets kids to read is good. i remember all the bullshit that came out with harry potter, that it taught children witchcraft and some parents wouldn't let their kids read it. i'd rather kids read than not read, even if it's magazines or books like twilight.
super post charles <3 and team edward FTW!
OMG! Team Edward?? Really?? He is such a whiny pussy!
MC Hammer ... Really?? Please tell me its 2 legit 2 quit (hey hey)
Books better than movies (obviously) but I think people were so obsessed with the books that the movies had no choice but to do well at the box office.
And heck yea Team Edward!
Hey, at least the Hammer was an original.
I assumed that it would be the kind of smut an evangelical Christian pastor might let his daughter read.
This quote and Dave Barry's spoof on it are all that people need to know about this book. When the Fox News morning team loved it, I knew it was bad news.
Dude. I totally commented on your first two reviews from China and it would appear that they didn't get to you.
Bloody stupid f*cking patchy internet connection.
I was all witty and sh*t too. Obviously.
Well, what evs.
I'm pleased that you didn't totally hate the book, but also slightly annoyed that I now feel unable to sniff superiorly at people whose noses I see buried in copies of the bloody thing on the tube.
No pun intended.
Now, is there any chance you could go ahead and read the Barack book, too, just so I could pretend that I did to my friends and resume superior sniffing at those far less well read than I?
Cheers mate. You're a star.
- B x
Well done Charles! I've really enjoyed this series of posts.
I agree that movies are the worst thing that could happen to just about every book in history. Stupid Hollywood. Well said!
I'm glad you didn't find the book to be too torturous. I told you it wouldn't suck as much as you thought it would. :)
PS: You pull off the popped collar look very nicely, it suits you. However, I wouldn't recommend that particular fashion trend to everyone. It's too creepy, especially if the guy is particularly obese, hairy, and/or sweaty. Just sayin'.
PPS: Welcome to Team Edward, aka: The Smart People.
I just want to say that "Julia" gave me a headache and reminded me of my little sisters, and "Dread" was a jerk-face. And skinny jeans are unacceptable on men. And popped collars are tacky. Always.
I agree that you should encourage people to read Twilight if only to get them to read something. I actually wrote a blog about it not too long ago when my sister and I were at a book store and some jerk laid into her for liking Twilight which really made me angry...but that's neither here nor there. That's not an invitation to read my blog. My blog is crap compared to this, so don't. I'm just saying that I agree that reading THIS book is better than reading NO books.
I actually like Twilight. I'm not a like a Twihard or anything. Okay, I admit...I went to buy the fourth book at the midnight release...and I've been to the midnight premiere for every movie. But it's something I share with my sisters. I don't like Bella's obsessive, clingy attitude or Edward's desire to "protect" her, which is really just a control thing. I hate that Bella has this awesome old school truck that she only drives a few times, and never when she's got a guy in the car. Edward or Jacob drive it more than she does. In real life their relationship would be considered really unhealthy.
But as a story...it's like a guilty, girly pleasure kind of read. Like I know the writing is average and it's nothing profound, but I enjoy it anyway. It's like watching Robocop. You know it's not a great movie, but you still enjoy it.
How could you??? I read this book... and read it, and read it, searching for meaning.
Ah well.
I read this book, and the first time I thought it was good. The second time I went through I recognized the shallowness of it. When you compare it to classic works there is obviously a huge literary gap, and I hated the religion and abstinence messages scattered through, but I have to admit, I did enjoy it the first time I read it.
I don't agree or disagree with you Charles. I read the first two books before I just couldn't stand it anymore. I don't like that out of all the delicious books that are out there to devour by the massive public, my age range decides to choose this series, but that's just me.
I mean it is great that this is somewhat promoting the illiterate generation to read my books, and yes Hollywood ruins literacy, and maybe I'm just acting like a whiny b***h, but it's my opinion so shove it.
I have a lot of qualms with this book. The not so great grammar and first person narrative (seriously there is only so much of Bella's thoughts you can take), the superficialness of Jacob and Edward, how Bella treats her parents, how everyone is totally in love with Bella as soon as she moves to Forks, and Stephanie Meyer's view of the vampires in this...
I mean I LOVED what Count Dread had to say, especially when he was talking about the sparkling bit, I even loved how he even bashed how vampires can't hold an erection. It's just that the way that vampires are popular now and not always in the traditional sense of the word, it saddens me.
I think that is all that I should say about this subject before I give myself an anurism, especially since my homework is yet to be complete...
The Adorkable Ditz
I think that you made a fair assessment of this book and I have to agree with what you said. I mean even though there is hype to this series at least its getting people to read. It is not the greatest book I have ever read but its not the worst.
I loved the guest blogs! I will say that Julia was annoying...
I can't really comment on this because I've never read the books...or even seen the movies...
But I'm so awesome because I still managed to comment.
Hell yeah.
HHHAAAAAAAA HAHAHAHAHAHA Your last line of "Team Edward" had me literally laughing!!!
Before I saw that, my comment was going to solely say "seriously? That's how you dress?"
I mean, popped collar? Come on... Sure I'm no fashionista but my theory is I try not to wear anything that my kids can make fun of me for in twenty years. And what's with the bieber hair? BOOYA! yeah I totally went there.
Seriously though, fair enough review. I have read them all, after much convincing, and though they're not great I was able to say "I get it" in regards to the teen craze surrounding it. I'll even watch the movies, once they're out for rent. But don't bother with the movies, unless you happen to be pms'ing and also want to eat a tub of ice cream and be reminded of the simpler times of your youth and girlhood, it'd be a perfect movie for that kind of night.
And IMO, team jacob fans are more of the movie watchers, Jacob turns into kind of an agressive stalker in the books. Totally love the alternate ending you created, I agree.
Though my household will always be "Team Dracula"
I read all four books. I could have skipped the 2nd and 3rd and gone right to the fourth, since the story line is, as you said, repetitive and easy to follow. I actually hated the movies, and thought they did nothing for the books. The casting was poorly done, as was the acting. The love story got me (what can I say...I'm a squishy mushy girl) and I did like the dynamic love triangle love story that Meyer attempts with Edward, Bella, and Jacob. In the end I was also team Edward. I guess I just believe that in the end, "real" love isn't always logical. Sometimes you just have to go with what the heart wants, instead of what the mind says is good for you.
As usual you pull me in and entrance me with humor and an amazing knack for leading me around my screen by my nose. All I can say is'Can't touch this"!
Emerson, I read the books. Yep. Read them all. My excuse is that I'm a high-school teacher and need to be up on what the kids like.
Would you say you are now at least 37% dumber or do you now not understand percentages because you are, as a result of reading this book, 37% dumber.
Hang on, just to clarify and not allow you room to make a smart comment about how I've read this and thus must have diminished mental capacity: my intelligence levels were already WAY above the usual quota, so now I'm just slightly above average rather than super sonic smart. Like before.
Just sayin.
I have to agree with Christine on her view of book Jacob - I personally think he's more manipulative than Edward, and plays on Bella's feelings just to get what he wants... dick.
And Charles, once I read that last line I think I fell in love you. Whilst most people find it embarrassing, I will admit that I am a Twi-hard and have read all the book an average of 12 times each... yes, I calculated the average... and they're not that great after the 10th time. However, I will forever love Edward, and the series - though Breaking Dawn was a huge disappointment.
It is an escape, as unfortunately reality will never provide such an uncomplicated existence, with the worse thing in your life being a vengeful vampire out to kill you whilst you have an even stronger, ridiculously perfect, handsome vampire (who loves you) to protect you.
Anyway, great review - loved it! I'm glad the writing didn't throw you off the story line - and I share your disappointment in the anti-climatic "fight" scene. I think you'll notice there is only about one fight scene in all four books.
i really like the idea of the guest blogs, but these two have to go. dread's a tool, and julia is an annoying, whiny twit. just grow up, julia, willya?
anyways, i was hoping that you'd hate the book and was looking forward to your lacerating wit. i'm still having difficulty with the 3 charles heads rating. seriously? but i guess i'll never know, cuz i sure as hell am not reading this crap!
now, can you get back to work and read "going rogue"? and do us all a favor and hate it?
thanks for doing our dirty work for us, charles, you're a champ!
Ay Charles. I am Team Jacob because he has a tan (and a tattoo). And muscly (is that a word) guys with tattoos that growl are always fabulous in my book. As far as the books, I've only read two out of the four, don't think I'll read the last two. Stephenie Meyer's writing annoys me and I have so many other books I wish to read before I die (and hell yes the Sookie Stackhouse novels are part of the bunch, because I LOVE True Blood more than coconut cupcakes). Bella, is the most annoying heroine in modern day literature. As the story progresses she becomes more whiny, clingy, Edward obsessed, incapable of making any decisions on her own, ugh! She's no role model for any teenage girl which makes me wonder if as a teenager I would've loved these books (shudder).
I thought your review intelligent (as usual), well written, and most importantly: UNBIASED, which trust, is a lot more than I expected from your crazy serial killer self.
Now on a different note, you got this song stuck in my head. You suck.
Good series. I was entertained. Good job, Charles.
Ranter: I never thought I would read it. My readers did this to me. I cannot be blamed ;-)
Tree Goddess: No nut huggers. My nuts have to dangle freely (as you have had the misfortun of seeing repeatedly).
Mynx: Good on your son for trying something out of the ordinary (good on his teacher too). I don't see how people reading more could be a bad thing.
etoile oye: Your name intrigues me. Julia is not a great writer... but she makes up for it with her misplaced optimism and trust in the system. lol.
SaaraTuulia: Thanks for preferring me over the pissed off vampire and the illiterate teenage girl. Also: I'm not saying you should stop glaring with disapproval...
Charliesperanza: Lol... could it be any other way?
Micael: It's never good to take my word on anything. Just... as a disclaimer.
Liz: The watch is a Bulova
Kalei's friend: Thanks.
Waldoni: That metrosexual guy exudes masculine musk and sexiness everywhere he goes. And I will always try to keep an open mind when consuming media.
Steph: I agree that the book is good for escaping. And that's the point of a lot of books. It's the best part of a lot of books.
aurora: He only seems whiny when it comes to the child he wants to sex up... I get a little whiny about my girlfriend too.
Pavla: Can't touch that. Go team edward.
Fred: The Hammer had sick pants. And I would have to agree about the fox news morning team.
Barreness: Maybe the Great FireWall caught your messages and wouldn't let them through....? I can miagine your wittiness in my head though
*imagines wittiness*
*laughs hard*
I will put the obama book on the list. Don't stop sniffing superiorly. If you sniff, you have probably earned it.
Candice: Team Edward HAS to have a higher IQ. It just makes sense. There should be a study done to make sure.
Chanel: Call me mr.tacky. Also: don't call your blog crappy. That's not going to help anyone. Tell people that it's "the best blog ever". I agree with the robocop analogy.
Sucker: the book has no meaning. I didn't search for meaning. This was a search for something inside of myself.
-E: It was somewhat enjoyable. And yes, it is a little tame in some areas, which coincides nicely with our evangelical christian fox news society.
Adorkable: I concur with everything you have said. I'm glad you liked the Count Dread piece. There is a lot that can be said to attack this book.
grrrl: julia is VERY annoying.
holden: You are some kind of wizard.
Christine: You zinged me! lol. But if my kids make fun of me for my clothes, I'm just going to lock them in the closet for hours on end. That's how my parents raide me, and I turned out alright. I agree with the "I get it" thing. That's pretty much the primary thought I experienced.
Julianna: I would say that "real" love is closer to NEVER being logical...or that's how it feels. I don't know that I will be reading any more of the books.
She-She: I said no one was to mention the MC Hammer.... shame on you.
Corianda: I calculated the percentage of increased mental capacity associated with listening to NPR's "Talk of the Nation" podcasts, and then balanced Twilight out with the appropriate amount of NPR episodes, leaving me even, the way I started: dumb as a box of rocks.
Dani-Q: Glad you liked the series. Go team edward! And 12 times for real?!
Carey: Going rogue is going on the list. As is the Obama book. I will get to them both eventually. promise.
Annah: I don't know what true blood is. And i have all but given up serial killing. I just don't have time for it anymore. And ever since I can remember I've been poppin' my collar....
I found this series of posts really entertaining. If I didn't say it before: I would definitely enjoy hearing from Count Dread again. Julia can stay at the mall. My brain can only handle so much.
I'm surprised at your response but I think you made some decent points (that I still disagree with-the whole damn Twilight thing is a bunch of crap, imo). Do you plan to continue with the books? I ask because I know how the rest of the story (sadly, I was surrounded by women that loved it and felt the need to inform me of every disgusting plot twist) and I wonder how you'd react to some the twists in the later books. Personally, I wanted to Van Gogh myself so I wouldn't have to hear about it anymore, but since you're a little more open to the whole thing I'm curious.
Anyhow, well done! Well done, indeed!
I LOVED the guest bloggers. What I loved about Julia's post was how scarily accurate it was--Julia calls Edward "Eduardo," (as a joke) her comment about Paster Dave and the purity test, feeling comfortable being just like everyone else. Sure, the constant effings and hawts were hilarious, but now I'm questioning your apparent knowledge of the teen scene ;)
But dude, lose the popped collar.
She says with love.
I haven't checked the links for your guest bloggers yet, but will. As far as your break down of the book...I'd have to say its pretty dead on. I read all the books and they were okay. Nothing spectacular but they were a nice beach read...nothing you have to think about too much. I read the Harry Potter books and found those to be better written. I have also read all the Sookie Stackhouse books (yeah I know I read a lot) and loved those. It takes a lot for me to dislike a book...and I don't jump on "teams" or go fan crazy. I appreciate them for what they are and respect the writers for creating worlds that vivid.
I loved the review of Twilight, and smiled when you said that; "I tend to be grossed out by things that become very popular with the broader population (especially with regards to media that become popular with the youth)." I didn't see Titanic until ten years after its release and no I have not seen Matrix as yet by reason of their popularity...lol... great job!

Posts Tagged 'Knoxville'
So as we all know Spring Break was last week and us students had a week off of school to travel or relax (or do work). A few of my friends planned a trip to New Orleans for what was the first time in a very long time that Fat Tuesday landed on the same week as Spring Break. We were only staying in New Orleans from Sunday to Wednesday so for the other days we were free to go as we pleased because we drove. We left Friday morning with the destination of University of Tennessee (Knoxville, TN) in sight.
A friend that was on the journey with us had a friend that goes to Univ. of Tennessee and invited us there for their annual Fraternity Boxing tournament. This tournament has been around for 28 years and raises nearly $100,000 for charity. Now this is no ordinary, give the frats beer and boxing gloves and let them at each other for blood. The event is held at a boxing arena called Golden Gloves in East Knoxville. The tournament is a weekend long event starting with elimination rounds on Thursday and Friday, and the final matches held on Saturday night. The boxers take the tournament extremely serious by using the months prior to the event to train and even drop their weight significantly for the weigh-in which is held on the Monday before the tournament. The students also prepare for the tournament by pre-gaming at their houses, in there yards, as well as crowding the college bars around the campus; It is almost like they were preparing for a football game. I have tried to go to as many of these student/college organized events in the past 4 years I have been enrolled in college. The last event I was at was the Beer Olympics hosted at St. Bonaventure University (Western New York). That was a blast and I am extremely pleased I had the chance to take part of that event. I unfortunately was unable to take part in the actual boxing tournament I did get a seat on one of the buses that went from the bars to the boxing arena and back to the bars for the after-party celebrations, and that was amazing. I have to say the southern hospitality was indescribable. I didn't see one fight at the bars/parties in the two nights I was there and everyone was extremely nice. I give Univ. of Tennessee two thumbs up from a student's perspective (without actually engaging in their academic program).
We had reservations at a hotel in New Orleans on Sunday and check-in was 3pm. I cannot say how ecstatic we all were to get down to the Mardi Gras festivities so we left early Sunday morning from Knoxville to make the 9hr journey. Everything was going as planned and we were even ahead of time until we actually got to New Orleans. The traffic was dead stop and my friend and I were getting antsy in the back seat so we decided to step out of the car and venture around the city as our other two friends moved the car about a block every 30 min. Our first impression of Mardi Gras was a parade taking over Canal Street with beads flying everywhere and intoxicating beverages being consumed by large quantities which ended up carpeting the sidewalks. As my friends finally got through the traffic and made it to the hotel we made our way back also. None of us expected what happened next. The room was like something I would stay in with my parents, not 3 other students on a Spring Break road trip, and the location was impeccable. We had a 26th level view of Canal Street (parades) and were a few blocks away from Bourbon Street (the shenanigans). I will not go into too much detail about Bourbon Street as I want to keep this PG but it is not for the weak. To fit in you have to do one thing, get weird. What it means to get weird is an individual's representation of how you want to take that. The street was littered with beads, bottles, and weirdly shaped cups to fit the drink that you ordered.
That brings me to my next point, the drinks. They have the most extravagant and highly alcohol induced beverages I have ever seen. Hurricanes, Hand Grenades, and Jester's are just a few drinks to be mentioned that are local to New Orleans. For some reason the creators of these drinks decided to use the highest proof liquors…i.e. Grain Alcohol, Bacardi 151. This clarified all the stories I heard about people coming down to Mardi Gras and ending up with alcohol poisoning. I am happy to say my friends and I did not experience this but I can definitely say I saw people that did. New Orleans is also known for their food so that was definitely on the check-list of things to do. We got to experience some Gumbo, Po'boys, Jambalaya, and Crawfish and it was all delicious.
Bourbon Street is definitely the place to be if you are looking for a party and people watching. Now Mardi Gras starts 12 days after Christmas (January 6th) and lasts until 46 days before Easter, therefore if Easter is late Fat Tuesday (last day of Mardi Gras) is late. Despite the festivities rally on for almost 2 months the craziest time is right before Fat Tuesday, hence the reason we went 2 days before and the day of Fat Tuesday. After going out Sunday night on Bourbon I thought I had seen it all. The bars don't close, ever, and there seemed to be no laws as long as you were not inconveniencing anyone else. As stated before I was there with 3 other friends but we actually met up with another group of friends that road tripped it down there too. We were both groups of 3 guys and 1 girl which worked out nicely because no one had to go anywhere alone, we tried to stick to the buddy system (not to sound like a children but if you take a wrong turn you will probably weep like a lost puppy and end up at the bottom of the Mississippi). Now that we had a group of eight we had power by numbers which is needed because Bourbon Street got crowded. Every night leading up to Fat Tuesday the street got more and more packed.
Now, Fat Tuesday, how do you describe Fat Tuesday? Get a drink, Get Weird, and have fun. It was by far the craziest of the 3 nights we were there. We all decided to join in on the festivities so after dinner we located a mask shop and accessorized to the occasion. Once we were all suited up we went directly Bourbon Street. Now we heard about a rumor that the street shuts down at midnight because that is when Mardi Gras is officially finished so we wanted to have time to enjoy the mayhem. We got to Bourbon around 9pm and there is no way I can describe my feelings and what actually happened other than telling you to book a flight and hotel for next year. After all the fun midnight came around and the cops actually came down the street on horseback to filter everyone back to their hotels or into the bars. Trying to displace the amount of bodies in the streets into the bars was not happening so we all decided to go back to our other friend's hotel room. Being the last night we decided to keep the party going do some swimming and then finally making our way back to our hotel. The next morning we had the choice of going to Panama City for another night or two to celebrate Spring Break but the majority spoke. We hopped in the car and headed back on a 20hr excursion back to Philly.

Wind and water play a predictable role in ruining perfectly good training rides -- especially in temperatures approaching the freezing mark. Castelli CW 4.0 Windstopper Gloves are designed to provide maximum protection against wind and rain without sacrificing the weight and comfort of lighter gloves.
The CW (Cold Weather) 4.0 Windstopper Gloves are constructed using Windstopper X-Fast, a polyester fabric that provides total wind protection and excellent breathability. It's perfect for those early spring days when you're forced to suffer through hours of cold and wet weather to make up for weeks of Sundays spent eating bacon and searching for live feeds of Belgian cyclocross. In addition to protecting you from the elements, the CW 4.0 Windstopper Gloves also use a lofty microfleece back that adds comfort and warmth while increasing moisture transfer for cool temperature workouts. After all, your hands sweat even when it's cold -- and a dry hand is a warm hand.
The CW 4.0 Gloves also feature a full palm of I-Vario, a grip-enhancing material that also decreases vibration; while a soft microsuede thumb panel will gently wipe a pesky runny nose. The gloves also have a neoprene cuff for added warmth (they'll stay snug around your wrist) and use Velcro for easy closure (they're easy to pull on and take off, even when riding).
The Castelli CW 4.0 Windstopper Gloves come in Black/anthracite and are offered in five sizes from Small through XX-Large.

Definitely A for effort and worthy of R&D.
Similar to the EV arguments regarding range - how practical is it to have a car that can only use a limited set of roadways? Not too many consumers can afford to buy a car for limited use. Granted, a hybrid version of this could allow for operation away from the electrified roads and still reap the weight benefits.
I would also like to see the power requirements to keep a highway running at speed. I haven't put pencil to paper, but I would suspect that as the number of coiled cars on the highway grows, the less energy will be available, and everything will slow to a crawl. With adequate power this might not be a problem since the speed of traffic is usually inversely proportional to the number of cars on the road anyway.
I almost want to say that fleet vehicles that run set routes would be a good place to start. If the cost was right, this would alleviate the fuel logistics costs of a fleet. But to keep costs affordable it may require widespread adoption to repay the capital of building the roadways.
The propulsion technique is similar to a MagLev.
The Panama Canal— the largest construction project in history at the time— cost $375 million in 1913 dollars. The CPI from that time to today has grown 21.2X, making the cost in 2008 dollars about 7.95 billion dollars. So $800 billion today would buy from scratch, 100 Panama Canals. This is approximately the Wall Street Bailout.
Here's another, perhaps more practical purchase–
The approximate cost of constructing a twin track 10,000 km maglev train system including 300 kph trains, tunnels, bridges and stations, between major US cities is about $800 billion. Average construction cost would be about $USD 50 million per kilometer. About 1200 maglev cars would be needed. The rolling stock would cost only US$20 billion.
So electric cars are fine, and I'll be a buyer someday. But let's build something amazing.

Transfer of weapons to Syria likely to spell further disaster for civilians caught in the crossfire, and fuel deadly arms race
A new era of high and volatile food prices is causing life-changing shifts in society, according to Oxfam and the Institute of Development Studies (IDS) in a joint report published today.
At least $18.5 trillion is hidden by wealthy individuals in tax havens worldwide, representing a loss of more than $156 billion in tax revenue, according to new figures published today by international agency Oxfam.
Governments and aid agencies have to tackle the politics and power at the heart of the increasing effects of climate change, rising inequality and people's vulnerability to disasters according to a new report published today by international agency Oxfam.
Oxfam is supporting international efforts to assess needs in Patukhali, Barguna and Bhola, the three districts worst hit by Cyclone Mahasen that hit Bangladesh on 16 May.
Poor countries are cutting back investment in farming, health service and services to help women because of fears about rising debts and the impact of the economic crisis, according to a new database launched today.
International donors must help Mali to rebuild its ability to govern itself and stop its slide into economic ruin if it is to "win the peace" following the French-led military intervention, says Oxfam.
A new report, Exploring the Links Between International Business and Poverty Reduction: Bouquets and Beans from Kenya, has been released by Oxfam and International Procurement and Logistics (IPL).

MANATEE COUNTY — When children are taken from their homes and put into an emergency shelter, they often come with nothing more than the clothes on their backs.
Manatee Children's Services, a nonprofit that has assisted abused and neglected children for more than 30 years, uses every resource it can to provide for the children it serves.
And starting June 1, Manatee residents can pitch in to help the organization while purchasing a chance to own a valuable piece of real estate.
A $50 ticket gives you a chance to win a three bedroom, two-bathroom house in The Harborage on Braden River. The home features more than 2,100 square feet of living space, a two-car garage and lanai as well as access to a community pool, fishing pier and observation deck, among other amenities.
"We are so grateful to be a part of this, and it certainly is a testimony to the good in our community," MCS CEO Melinda Thompson said. "We live among folks who really do care, and they want to help."
The effort is being led by Bradenton resident Mary Burns, who started Dream House Charity last year as a way to combine her passion for children and vision for fundraising. The organization raffles off one donated home each year specifically to benefit Manatee Children's Services.
"I thought with real estate so bad, that it would help someone else to be able to pay off their mortgage and give the proceeds to benefit their charity," Burns said.
If a minimum in ticket sales is not met, the drawing turns in to a 50/50 raffle. Last year's campaign raised about $4,500 for Manatee Children's Services.
Burns said she picked the charity out of 185 registered nonprofits because of its wide variety of services. MCS has 11 child abuse and prevention programs, including emergency shelter, parenting classes, abuse prevention workshops, mental health services and group homes for children in foster care.
"They reach out to the ones that no one else wants," Burns said. "They do so much."
MCS is funded through federal, state and local government, United Way and private donations. About 18,000 children and adults are served through its programs each year.
The raffle for the house will last through June 1, 2010. Tickets are available through the Web site, www.dreamhousecharityfl.com, or by completing a form available at Manatee Children's Services, 453 Cortez Road W., Bradenton.
Contact Pam McTeer at email@example.com.
WHEN: June 1, 2009 through June 1, 2010
COST: $50 per ticket
PRIZE: A three-bedroom home in The Harborage at Braden River (If minimum ticket sales are not met, the fundraiser goes to a 50/50 raffle)
BENEFICIARY: Manatee Children's Services

Most helpful review
By a customer from Warwickshire , 20 Sep 2003[Highly rated reviewer]
Propulsive in-your-face salute to film noir with a Nineties slant with savvy filmmaking from auteur Tarantino interweaving three tales of crime, sex, greed and O. Henry sensibility mixed with Murphy's Law.
What can one say that hasn't been said about 'Pulp Fiction': the dialogue is fresh, the narrative is brilliant, the acting is superlative, etc. All these praises are merely opinions, but one has to be completely ignorant to deny the influential aspects of 'Pulp Fiction.' A film that was the catalyst for the independent film generation. It is the film that defied Hollywood's preconceived notion--that all films needed to be moulded from an archetype. 'Pulp Fiction' reinvigorated a genre inept, and bereft of creativity. Simply put, 'Pulp Fiction' is the best film of the 90's; much like 'Citizen Kane' is regarded as the best film of all time. Both films cinematic aspects can be argued, but one would be hard pressed to deny the level of their influence.- Was this review helpful to you?

Pretty damn good.
By BlueEyedGirl (2 reviews) , 07 Oct 2012[Highly rated reviewer]
I liked it, funny in parts, interesting and well done. Not what i was expecting, i had expected a more linear plot focused on one particular story rather than what is more a kin to an insight of many short stories of the lives of people in a world of violence, drugs and crime. I'd say its enjoyable, however not for those who dislike gore, violence, or are offended easily. I recommend it :)- Was this review helpful to you?

Brilliance in film form!
By Beckymoggy (4 reviews) , 14 Aug 2012Having watched this film more times than i've had hot dinners, i can safely say that i really think this will go down in history as one of the classic gangster films. Though confusing to the 'new eye' once you get the hang of the film it'll prove to be exciting and intriguing.
Not recommended for the faint hearted as this film contains a lot of bad language and violence but well worth a watch all the same!
John Travolta, Samuel L. Jackson and Uma Thurman are by far the best characters in this...all with their own indivdual takes on life and the challenges it faces.
Pure Brilliance from Tarantino!- Was this review helpful to you?

Unless you're a Real Housewife, getting a book published is harder than writing it. (Reading lines — er, reacting naturally — is hard, y'all.)
A novel idea that beats the fame game is Pubslush, a new Kickstarter-esque social publishing platform that lets people submit, endorse, and fund fiction and nonfiction works based on excerpts.
Forget sappy confessionals: Next great American memoirs include Janna Leyde's He Never Liked Cake, which tells her story of relearning to love her father after a traumatic brain injury changed his character, and Bethany Parks's Flipping Chairs, a tale wrought with wry humor of time spent in Kenya and triumph over breast cancer.
Tomes need 1,000 supporters to be published, and you get charged only if that goal is met. Embracing the one-for-one trend (a la Toms and Warby Parker), Pubslush donates a book to a child in need for every one sold.
Bravo to that.

Occupational asthma is a lung disorder in which substances found in the workplace cause the airways of the lungs to swell and narrow, leading to attacks of wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and coughing.
See also:
Asthma - occupational exposure; Irritant-induced reactive airways disease
Many substances in the workplace can cause occupational asthma. The most common triggers are wood dust, grain dust, animal dander, fungi, or other chemicals (especially diisocyanates).
Though the actual rate of occurrence of occupational asthma is unknown, it is suspected to cause 2 - 20% of all asthma cases in industrialized nations.
The following workers are at higher risk:
Symptoms are usually due to swelling of the airways and spasms of the muscles lining the airways. This reduces the amount of air that can pass through, and can lead to wheezing sounds. See also: Asthma
Symptoms usually occur shortly after you are exposed to the substance, and often improve or go away when you leave work. Some people may not have symptoms until 12 or more hours after being exposed to the allergen.
Symptoms usually get worse toward the end of the work week and may (but not always) go away on weekends or vacations.
In general, symptoms include:
The health care provider will perform a physical exam and ask questions about your medical history. Your symptoms may have a pattern of getting worse with a certain workplace environment or substance.
The health care provider may hear wheezing when listening to the chest with a stethoscope.
The following tests may be used to diagnose this condition:
Avoiding exposure to the substance that is causing your asthma is the best treatment.
Asthma medicines (almost always inhalers) may help you manage your symptoms. Talk to your doctor about these medicines.
See: Asthma and allergy - support group
Occupational asthma may keep getting worse if you continue to be exposed to the substance that is causing the problem, even if medicines improve your symptoms. You may need to change jobs.
Sometimes, symptoms may continue even when the substance is removed.
In general, the outcome for people with asthma is good. However, symptoms may continue for years after you are no longer exposed in the workplace.
Call your health care provider if you have symptoms of asthma.

Art or Copyright Infringement?
Earlier this year Richard Prince lost in court to Patrick Cariou, whose images Prince appropriated for several collages and paintings. The debate is still raging, especially as the court's ruling would bar artists from appropriating images unless they are commenting on the original work–something Prince's work fails to do, and a difficult test to use in the digital media world where images are so easily accessible and useful to artists for any and all purposes. Randy Kennedy has written an excellent analysis of the case and its potential impact on artists, collectors and museums in today's New York Times. The implications of this case are far-reaching and controversial but might not have much effect today, according to Kennedy, who reminds us that the proverbial horse has long ago fled the barn. MoMA and the Metropolitan Museum
have weighed in on Prince's side to support freedom of expression for artists, but so much appropriation is happening today in so many places, the courts would have a difficult time pursuing perpetrators and if the law stands it would be nearly impossible to enforce.

Harlequins young guns are preparing to do more than just win a trophy
3:37pm Friday 15th March 2013 in Sport By Tim Ashton
Harlequins director of rugby Conor O'Shea claimed his young guns are going into this weekend's LV= Cup final to do more than win silverware.
After a thrilling 31-23 semi-final win over Bath at the Stoop on Saturday, Quins face Sale Sharks in Sunday's showpiece at Worcester's Sixways ground.
His young charges – 16 of the squad that beat Bath were under 23 as well as being part of the victorious Aviva A League side – may have a wealth of experience, but they know a good LV= Cup display will send out a significant message.
O'Shea said: "The younger players are putting down a marker to their more senior colleagues.
"For example, Tom Casson and George Lowe, in the centre, were excellent and put down a huge marker to Jordan Turner-Hall and Matt Hopper.
"The competition between those guys is incredible and it comes out on the training pitch as well as in matches.
"And the games are coming thick and fast. We have the trips to Saracens and Gloucester within five days of each other and so we need everyone to contribute to the run-in."
Tom Williams (two), Tom Guest and Karl Dickson got the tries, while Ben Botica added 11 points with the boot to see off Bath for the second time in the competition, having beaten them in the pool stages in November.
O'Shea said: "We were delighted with the attitude of the players against what we knew would be a tough Bath side. But we need to back it up now, we've won nothing.
"We've got to a final and we're looking for a performance of the same level. If you win, great, if you lose, there is nothing more you can do.
"We want the guys to get out there and put on the park what they are about and see where it takes them."

The Cherokee and Lighttpd alternative web servers
Apache has ruled the web since the mid-90s, but not all users are happy with it. Recent competitors Cherokee and Lighttpd offer an uncomplicated alternative for users who are looking for something light.
Apache is so predominant among Unix-style web servers that most people wouldn't dream of looking for alternatives. On the other hand, the Apache server carries much ballast, some of which dates back to its previous life as the NCSA-HTTPD. For example, the Apache developers kept the multi-process model with a fixed number of pre-launched server instances until version 2. Now there is a variant that uses multiple threads to process requests; then again, this new construction has added to the existing codebase, which can lead to inefficiencies. In this article, I examine a pair of promising Apache alternatives.

Some first-graders in Hollis are in the spirit of giving this holiday season.
The girls, who are all turning 7 years old in December, decided they want to help other kids by donating all of their birthday presents to Toys for Tots.
The idea started with six families who were looking for a way to help this holiday, and it grew to include the entire first-grade class.
That means dozens of toys will be available to children in need.
"If we donated toys, they would finally have some to do and play with," said toy donor Gracie Dortona. "I have a lot of toys for other kids that can't afford toys. I thought that would be nice."
The girls and their moms organized a party where all their friends could come and bring a new unwrapped toy that will help make Christmas brighter for New Hampshire families who would otherwise not be able to afford them.
"Now that they get toys, when they get them, they are going to be really excited to play with them," toy donor Annette Schlunk said.
While the kids danced at the party, the presents piled up.
"Everybody is bringing multiple toys, and everybody is really excited about it," Dortona said.
Marines were on hand from Toys for Tots to collect the gifts. They were amazed by the amount of presents the kids were able to collect.

In the latest round of fighting between Israelis and the Palestinian militants of Hamas in Gaza, one key player looms like an ominous, lengthening shadow: Iran.
Never far from sight or mind, the standoff between Iran and the West over Iran's nuclear program serves as the backdrop to the fighting. It frames Israeli tactics and strategy and influences the international diplomatic response. Iran and its nuclear program also play a powerful psychological role, as observers and participants ponder the parallels between the latest Israel-Hamas conflict and a possible war in which Iran would stand against the U.S. or Israel, and perhaps other NATO allies.
Little wonder then that Israel has received strong support from U.S. President Barack Obama -- who has repeatedly stated, "We are fully supportive of Israel's right to defend itself from missiles raining on people's homes" -- as well as from nations including the UK, Germany, Canada, Australia, the Netherlands and others.
When Israelis see a rocket launched from Gaza, the thought that one day that rocket could carry nuclear materials burns hot in their mind.
And when they see their Iron Dome defensive missile shield -- the extraordinarily successful new technology -- shoot down a missile, it gives them, and perhaps NATO, a sense of reassurance about how a clash with Iran might unfold.
Tehran has long armed Israel's most determined enemies. Israelis worry that Iran could hand nuclear materials to groups committed to Israel's destruction, a prospect many see as more realistic than a direct nuclear attack from Iran.
Israel's attacks in Gaza are aimed at stopping the rockets and mortar attacks that have gone on for years and have intensified greatly in recent weeks. Israel complained to the U.N. But Israel also wanted to deplete a Hamas arsenal it sees as part of Iran's preparations in case of war with Israel.
Israeli officials say the missiles launched by Hamas and Islamic Jihad into Israel's two largest cities, Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, are Iran's rockets, which Israelis believe were shipped by Iran in separate pieces like a doomsday Ikea package. They were sent by sea to Sudan and then moved through Egypt and into tunnels to Gaza, where they were assembled for firing at Israel with the help of Iranian operatives on the ground in Gaza. Iran and Sudan have denied that such a smuggling operation exists.
Iran has threatened to unleash attacks against Israel and "wipe it off the face of the Earth," in case of a hit on its nuclear installations. Those attacks could come from Gaza and from Iran's Lebanese ally, Hezbollah.
Perhaps not coincidentally, in late October Israeli fighter jets are believed to have bombed an arms factory in Sudan. The Times of London said the facility made missiles for Hamas and was operated by Iranian Revolutionary Guards. Some analysts have speculated that the Israeli attacks against Gaza constitute the second part of the Sudan operation, in which Israel set out to destroy Iran's most dangerous weapons arrayed in Gaza just meters from Israeli civilian populations and being launched with increasing brazenness by Hamas and Islamic Jihad.

Why is my bounce rate over 80% all the time?
My bounce rate constantly exceeds 80% averaging around 85/86%.
Can anybody see and obvious reason why?
I don't have an answer for you but I wanted to comment on a particular article you had but I don't have Facebook (surprisingly). You might want to think about alternative options.
one of the reasons I can think of that it is painfully slow and I have 60MB Charter
yeah, im aware that it is very slow. I used a third party theme and im currently in the process of building one from scratch. However, im not too sure whether its the theme or GoDaddy that is causing it to be so slow.
Definitely GoDaddy.
yeh, i might transfer away. do you recommend another host?
Page load speed will kill your bounce rate when people have to wait up to 5 or 6 seconds for some pages to load like I am experiencing here on my end. Nobody will want to hang around when there are 100's of similar sites like yours. There are some things you can do on your end to speed it up. If you have access to .htaccess you should cashed your static content and give it expiration. Move your style sheet links as far as up in head section as you can, preferably right below charset, title and page description. Move you scripts down right before the closing body tag. You already using Gzip as far as I can tell by checking your HTTP response header. Compress your css files and maybe combine them in to one. That's all I can think of right now.
BTW. I checked several of your pages with YslowV2 and you get pretty low scores. High 60's - low 70's. Score on my pages run anywhere from 92 to 97. That's mostly due to third party scripts I have no control over and cannot cache. Otherwise I'd be closer to 100.
after some 8 years being with godaddy we got finally fed up with them and went with inmotion vps, superior performance and service, we could not be happier

City of Alexandria, VA
Marine Operations Team
The history of the City of Alexandria is rich in seafaring traditions. While the City is no longer the seaport of the past, seagoing vessels ply the waters of the Potomac River and tie up to the docks along the Alexandria Waterfront. Vessels of all types, including pleasure boats, cruise liners, transport ships, tour ships and ships of war, routinely run the Potomac or tie up to docks along Alexandria's river front. In addition, during the warm weather months, thousands of residents and visitors can be found along the waterfront. In 1997, the City of Alexandria Fire Department initiated development of the Waterfront Operations Team to assist in the protection of citizens and mariners who use the various waterways in and adjacent to the city either for business or recreation. The Team was later renamed the Marine Operations Team to better reflect the multiple roles of the team, which include Open Water and Swift Water Rescue as well as Marine Firefighting (all members are trained to NFPA 1405 guidelines). Working out of two fire stations, members of the Marine Operations Team also work with Metropolitan Washington Council of Government member departments, both Police and Fire, to provide protection to those imperiled in the marine environment across the region. Resources Boat 204 and Boat 214: Designed to be rapidly deployed in all weather conditions, these Zodiac inflatables are used by the Marine Operations Team to gain rapid access to persons in distress in the marine environment. They can also be utilized to assist members of the Hazardous Materials in deploying booms. The inflatables are towed by Engine 204 or Support Unit 204 (Chevy Suburban), which is equipped with a variety of water rescue equipment. Fireboat 201 Vigilant: Vigilant is a Class 'C' fireboat equipped with a 1500 gpm PTO pump and a full compliment of equipment as required by NFPA 1925. Powered by twin Cummings diesels and Hamilton hydro jets, Vigilant can run at greater than 40 knots. Paramedics can be deployed aboard Vigilant to give the vessel an Advanced Life Support capability. Training Regional Assets Swift water rescue teams are also located throughout the city and region and operate regardless of the environment or jurisdictional boundary. Additional Information |
