Um, Cardinal Dolan, You Know What You're Doing, Right?
I will be praying that God gives you keen insight and wisdom, as well as courage to fight the good fight.
I couldn't believe the news that Obama was invited to the Al Smith Catholic charities dinner with your blessing. Like a lot of other people, I find it hard to see how this can end well and easy to see how this could be a disaster just weeks before the election. Your Eminence, please tell me you have an ace up your sleeve. Please reassure your concerned sheep that you've got this and all is well. You have never given us reason to doubt you or question your courage and fidelity. So I'm choosing to believe the best and pray that God gives you wisdom and courage. Lead on, Smiling Cardinal.
Well, you've had an interesting week, haven't you? I thought rather than talking about you I'd talk to you. Who am I? Nobody special, just a daughter of the Church. Just an Army wife, a homeschooling mom raising three kids, and an American citizen who's very worried about her country.
You, on the other hand, are a breath of fresh air for the Church in America. You are the embodiment of the courage, enthusiasm, joy, and faith we need now more than ever. Your election to the head of the Bishop's conference was music to my ears. It gave me great hope in many ways. God has not forsaken us here in the U.S.A., even though we've forsaken Him. He has given us you in this critical hour. I know I'm not alone here -- any Catholic who's paying any attention at all is grateful for all you've done.
I want to thank you for the leadership you've provided. I want to thank you for having a spine. Thank you for your forthrightness and fidelity. Thank you for fighting and defending and teaching and admonishing and for doing it all with your unbeatable smile. You're a big bear -- part teddy and part grizzly. It's exactly what we need, so don't ever change.
When this story of the Al Smith Catholic charities dinner first came to light my first thought was that the reporter had his facts messed up. I thought, "There's no way Cardinal Dolan invited him!" Then came some disbelief, then an out loud, "What?!?" when I learned it was true.
The firing squad quickly took aim at you, and the Catholic blogosphere was soon crackling with a lot of angry Catholics who could not fathom why our Church leaders were inviting the worst President in history to dinner.
In my own small circle, I tried to encourage folks to take a deep breath and not rush to join in the condemnation. Cardinal Dolan, I said, has never given us a reason to doubt his strength or his loyalty. Let's give this a chance and see what comes of it.
But I have to admit, I'm not crazy about it either. The whole thing makes me nervous, to say the least.
The man sitting in the White House does not behave like a President, so I won't call him that. He wants to be king, and he acts like a tyrant, so from now on, I will refer to him as the tyrantking. He is the enemy of life and freedom in America. I don't think anyone can dispute that assessment. I think he is a wolf who barely bothers to put his wool on anymore.
He is the enemy of Catholicism, as far as I'm concerned. He uses the Church to cover his behind and give his evil policies some sort of legitimacy, thanks to apostates like Nancy Pelosi, Joe Biden, Kathleen Sebelius, and thanks to the inexplicable Fr. John Jenkins. (Why is he still the president of a Catholic university, by the way??)
After this last year and the all-out assault he has waged on religious freedom and the child in the womb; after his pathetic and manufactured "war on women" that revolves around contraception; and after all you have said and done to stand up to him and lead the Church in the battle to defend what is right, why why why do we have to invite the guy to dinner for drinks and a few laughs??
As of this moment, Catholics in America must decide whether to violate Church teaching and their own conscience, or whether to disobey the HHS mandate and risk their business and livelihood. The war is ON, and we're gonna tell jokes and have a good time with the tyrant behind the oppression? Seriously?
Your Eminence, please tell me you have an ace up your sleeve. Please tell me there's more to this that the rest of us just don't know about yet. Please tell me you haven't taken leave of your good senses.
In my head, the conversation is going something like this:
Cardinal Dolan is no idiot. True. This ain't his first rodeo. True again. He's certainly no Obama sycophant. Very true. He must have a good reason for doing this. I sure hope so. But c'mon, really? Are we suddenly no longer fighting for our lives against this guy and his evil policies? Exactly... This will end badly with one opportune photo, and Obama will milk it for all it's worth right through the election. Yep. Okay Jesus, I trust in You. Please prove me wrong about this.
I'm waiting anxiously to hear what your thoughts are about this whole mess. Please reassure your worried sheep that you've looked at this from all sides and all is well.
I beg you, please promise me that you won't gift the tyrantking two ...

Great article Jennifer! I agree. Too many Catholic politicians and citizens have had their focus and faith corrupted by the world and it's harping on racism and poverty as the most important issues while a river of blood from babies of all races and income levels flowed daily from all the abortuaries in this country. Also I wouldn't call Obama a tyrantking as he doesn't have enough class to be a king. He is an amoral socialist.

To Rob,
The first issue is not Medicare or finances--you are getting sidetracked. The first issue is life. Catholics cannot support intrinsic evils (e.g., abortion, contraception, euthanasia, embryonic stem cell research, gay "marriage") under pain of mortal sin. If a candidate supports intrinsic evils (the current President supports all of the above intrinsic evils and propagates abortion all over the world at our expense), a Catholic cannot vote for him/her under pain of mortal sin. The ACA is not about healthcare, but about redistribution of wealth, population control, and denial of medical care.
When we stand before Our Lord at our particular judgment, we would not want to have to defend voting for a pro-abortion politician when there was a pro-life alternative. -

Rob: I forgot to address the tax question. Romney has released the amount of taxes required by law. The same as Obama did according to law. Obama releasing more is purely by choice. What we can deduce from that is, no matter how many years taxes a candidate releases, it will not keep a Marxist/Socialist from being elected as president. Romney is telling us who he is and if we are honest with ourselves, Obama told us who he was too, Only too many people were mesmerized by his personality, and did not listen to him voicing his political philosophies. They heard him but did not "listen." I know Judy, Vance, Me and some others on this board did listen, and we know full well who Mr. Obama is. God bless.

Rob: It has been brought up before by the GOP, many times. The Dems always fought it. Look, we both agree something has to be done. All I know is that Ryan's plan is 100% better than what Obama is offering. At least I would be in charge of my own money, life and healthcare. You forget I have two children under the age of 50 that I am concerned about. At least they think, Ryan's plan is a good start. We wouldn't be in any of this mess if FDR wouldn't have started SS and Lyndon Johnson didn't start the "The Great Society". They were just ways to get control of the people and get votes. You wouldn't believe what Johnson said after he signed the civil rights bill and the great society bill. He was despicable. And, by the way, our Black brothers and sisters would have had the civil rights bill way BEFORE Johnson got in office if Johnson hadn't FILIBUSTERED it when EISENHOWER tried to get a civil rights bill enacted. Johnson was the senate majority leader at that time and he killed it. SS was only meant to be emergency income for people who lived passed 65. The life expectancy at that time, was 60 for men and 64 for women. It was never meant to be a "Retirement Fund." It was meant to be a supplement, not a way of life. Hence, the present culture. The progressives have succeeded in breeding a society with "Help me, help me. The government owes me a living" mentality. Now, according to a report from Senator Jeff Sessions, 110 million of our citizens are on some sort of government program. That's 1/3 of the population. That really makes for a healthy nation doesn't it? Thank God I had wise parents that encouraged me to save for my retirement. I thought it was nonsense at the time,but am very grateful to them today. I worked from the age of 15 and always paid myself 10% of my income first. I worked until I was 70 and HAD to retire only because of health reasons. If I were still ship shape, I would still be working today. By the way, Rob, are you still upset with me? I noticed you didn't even acknowledge my apology I made a few days ago. I really hope you accepted it. God bless.

JoAnn, Obama has released tax returns going back to 2000. The returns are easily found on the internet.
In regards to your assessment of the Ryan plan, why would people choose to forgo tranditional medicare if given the choice? If this plan is so good, why aren't current seniors fighting for it right now and choosing to have their care and costs decided by the private insurers? The reason is simple and it's a slight difference between the two plans. Both plans have to look for ways to trim costs and shift expenses. The ACA cuts costs by reducing payments to providers while maintain the full complement of services currently offered. The risk obviously is that provider cease accepting Medicare. However, as most hospitals and providers know, this reduction in reimbursements can be made up by the new number of covered individuals. Ryan's plan does allow you to choose traditional medicare. So assuming 100% of individuals choose the traditional plan, where do the cost savings come from and where exactly is the reform? And let's say a senior chooses to go the private route, well the "savings" are dervied because the burden for the additional expense are shifted to the senior by virture of the difference between the voucher payment and what the provider and insurance company charge. Under this scenario we assume the ACA is repealed, there is nothing compelling private insurers to spend more on actual healthcare. Savings come from increased costs shifted to seniors.
I have a hard time understanding who would pick this plan. Private insurance already profits on the fact that the highest cost in healthcare are covered by the government. I can't imagine what a premium is going to look like for a senior choosing a private plan. But again, if this plan is so good, why not do it right now for all seniors? -

When I read the article by Jennifer Hartline, about why Cardinal Dolan has invited Obama to the Al Smith Dinner-it was like my very thoughts were appearing on the page like magic.
She has expressed my feelings exactly. I understand that our Lord ate and sat with sinners and he will forgive everyone who is truly sorry for their sins. But Obama is evil, his actions are almost "anti-Christ" like! Obama will take his appearance at this dinner and use it to his advantage in the upcoming election. There is a quote, "there is a time for peace and a time for war", now is time for war against Obama and his evil agenda. If we, Christians and Catholics do not stop him-who else can we blame? I hope and pray that Cardinal Dolan will re-think his invitation and will uninvite Obama before it is to late. -

Maria, while I don't necessarily agree with everything you've said, I too have some serious misgivings about the lack of financial disclosure. There is a lack of transparency in this that I thought we were protesting against. What makes that issue have more punch for me is the fact that Romney's own father started the tradition. For all the ranting and raving about disclosure of every jot and tittle of Obama's past, I find it amazing that minus a few gutsy conservative commentators, there is silence.
Romney is in a jam. Best case, his returns show a lot of foreign accounts, he made a lot of money and used every creative strategy in the book to avoid taxes (none of illegal but also most not available to most working class Americans). Worst case, he may have had to avail himself of the IRS's amnesty program for foreign holdings. If he had to do that, that is a different ball game all together. And while I have to believe the GOP would not nominate him if he had that in his past, crazier things have happend. John Edwards was really close to the dem nomination.
He and his wife are right, he does not have to show them. And I don't have to vote for him either.

Funeral service for Jeanne Lee Seppala will be at 11 a.m. Monday at Walker Funeral Home in Gillette. Burial will follow at Mount Pisgah Cemetery. Visitation will take place one hour prior to the service.
Jeanne Seppala, 76, of Gillette, died Wednesday, Jan. 16, 2013, at her home of natural causes.
Mrs. Seppala was born June 29, 1936, the oldest identical twin to Joanne in Faith, S. D., to parents Harold and Gladys (Tibble) Shrull.
As a young child, she moved to Newcastle with her family where she was raised and educated, graduating from Newcastle High School in 1954. Upon her graduation, she attended Black Hills Teacher's College in Spearfish, S.D.
There, she met her husband, Jim Seppala, and the couple was married in November 1955 in Edgemont, S. D., where the couple made their home. They later moved to a ranch on the Cheyenne River before moving to Newcastle.
In 1974, Mrs. Seppala began a 27-year career with the now BNSF Railroad. In 1982, she and her family moved to Gillette, where she has lived since.
In 1997, she suffered a stroke. Mrs. Seppala handled this life-changing event with much grace and determination. An accomplished right-handed painter prior to the stroke, she became an equally accomplished left-handed painter.
As a young woman, she competed in rodeo. She had a special way with animals. She enjoyed the Broncos and the Yankees, loved watching her children and grandchildren compete in all of their activities and she was very artistic. Mrs. Seppala also loved her time at the Senior Center and cherished her friendships made during time spent there.
Mrs. Seppala is survived by her four children, Joleen McIlravy of Gillette, Linda Gaudard of Buffalo, Mike Seppala of Pueblo, Colo., and Susie Carr of Gillette; eight grandchildren; 10 great-grandchildren; one sister and several nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her parents, husband, Jim, and twin sister, Joanne.
Memorials are suggested to benefit the Senior Center Painting Class. Memorials and condolences may be sent in Jeanne's name in care of Gillette Memorial Chapel, 210 W. 5th St., Gillette, WY 82716, via the internet at www.gillettememorialchapel.com or attached to the obituary on the News Record's website at www.gillettenewsrecord.com.
I will miss Jeanne every painting day. I loved her laugh, her smile and enthusiasm for every day. She always had a hug handy and showed her love for you every time she saw you. I have one of her paintings and it is one of my prized possessions. She is an inspiration to anyone with difficulties in everyday life as she accomplished so many things over the years. Will chuckle every time I turn my picture upside down to paint as that is what Jeanne did and we gave her a bad time about this. She always laughed with us. She was such a joy to be a round. RIP Jeanne and enjoy all your rewards and I am sure she will have everyone laughing and smiling around her. God bless her family and may He grant you peace and comfort in this time of loss.
Mary (Petterson) Allen
We are very sorry to hear of the passing of your Mother. She was a great Lady and we are very glad to have known her. You are in our prayers. Gary and Ellen Steeves

Trent, based on the little music video you provided, I'm not sure I can run with you again. This is so weird and extremely disturbing!!!!!!!!! I expect something like this out of you AFTER a 50 miler, but not before. You crack me up and make me feel old.
Back off!
Um - LOVE that: I know I will watch it again - priceless!
From memory: I am Adam, prince of Eternia, defender of the secrets of Castle Greyskull. This is Cringer, my fearless friend. Fabulous secret powers were revealed to me the day I held aloft my magic sword and said, "BY THE POWER OF GREYSKULL. [He man!] I HAVE THE POWEEER!" Only three others share this secret: Our friends the Sourcer, Man-at-Arms and Orco. Together we defend Castle Greyskull from THE EVIL POWERS OF SKELETOR! [skeletor laughing in background].
I can remember totally wanting to be She-Ra....
Good thing we outgrew it.
Oh, ew....
That's me in the back.
Now I'm ready for this.

Zoomy Now I'm ready for this.
NICE! I'd best not let my hubby know about that race...he grew up not far from there and used to ski at Chestnut.
Was he from Iowa, Illinios or Wisconsin?
IL. Macomb, to be precise.
Gotcha...That's not quite the Tri-State area I thought of when you said Chestnut Mtn.
Nice area though. (If you like college towns)
There's nothing else out there...just farms and WIU.
Did anyone get one of these for Christmas/Hanukkah:
I wish she had been around to do our dishes tonight. I think.

I have done a star shot before using Autopano. I was curious to see how this one would work out though as I shot it relatively poorly. Has come up great though:
First_Light_To_Star_Light by Beetwo77, on Flickr
Also just for interest, I've been experimenting with image stacking. Here are two stitched panos put together in APG. The first is all the files loaded into APG and stitched. The shots are clearly processed and cropped differently, but the point I am trying compare is the relative smoothness of water and sky with stacking versus just chucking all the images into APG:
Fenced_In_Toned_Up by Beetwo77, on Flickr
The second is the same shot however the base images that I used were stacked in photoshop first, just to clarify, this shot is made up of 3 shots x 3 brackets at each image location. Each bracketed exposure was shot 4 times. Therefore when I say the images were stacked, the 4 images that make up each bracket where stacked into TIFFs and then the 3x3 Tiffs were stitched:

A few more panos just for good measure from around the place:
Setting_Sun by Beetwo77, on Flickr
Hedged by Beetwo77, on Flickr
Happy_Jan by Beetwo77, on Flickr
I think these shots deserve a free upgrade to APG 3.0

Hi, the sky pano (the others as well) is great. You could probably try to either expose the sky longer or use a higher ISO. You can get incredible detail there.
First, nice work.....
Second, nope.....Kolor is set for profit.....a good thing since thanks to profit they survive....
Third, some thoughts....
A) The stary beach......I like the technique but I don't like 2 things.....the format of the photo.....I would go for more broadness (more rows) in a shoy like this and the fact that the beach is a bit slanted (can be corrected in Photoshop in a jiffy (make that half a jiffy)
B) The dock...I would like the water of the lower one and the processing of the upper one.....then you'd have a wonderfull photo....
C) The sunset......plain and simply a lovely picture......some shall say the sun is a bit white, but sending out light is part of it's mission statement and I like it that way
D) The landscape, feels also a bit slanted to the right.....(<- feels is different from is in this case)....which I would correct by rotating counterclockwise 2 to 3 degrees (and I would go to that trouble just before printing it as large as I could).
E) Which I then would regret.....since well the Barn, the Barn is poetry.....have seen a lot of barns of all sort and sizes (popular meme these days) but with a sky like that and color to match......great stuf.
Greets, Ed.
Hi Christian and Ed,
greatlly appreciate your feedback. I have to admit to having been very busy working this month and I've been sloppy with the fine details of my shots.
Its funny how aspect ratios work. The star photo I shot in portrait orientation. When I cropped it, I had to use a ratio of 3.5:1 to get the best star segments into the image. A ratio of 3:1 works for images but I agree 100% 3.5:1 is too skinny as demonstrated by this image. I should have shot it half an hour earlier and the in landscape orientation and it would have been a better result. I think I shot it at ISO1600, again should have gone 3200 although there was a fair amount of moon light around so I think it was always going to be hard to balance. Live and learn I guess. I will definitely have a look at your points when I get some time. Thanks again.
Also Artisan, I think the price for APG is reasonable but I can't help my cynicism. I used to work for a software company who charged 20% per year annual maintenance fee for their software. The upgrade fee from APG 2 to APG 3 is 40% of new purchase price. APG is 2 and a bit years old. In my cynical mind I feel like Kolor has used 20% per annum effectively as a software maintenance fee and I have a built in prejudice to this approach because the company I worked for charged an arbitrary industry standard 20% maintenance fee and the amount of maintenance fee earnt by the company was far in excess of the cost of maintaining the software, i.e. the maintenance fees from existing users were in fact funding other software developments, not spent on improving software that the person paying the maintenance fee was using. So the people paying maintenance fees were subsidising the development cost for people to buy other software that the company wants to produce for different markets they want to get into. The company I worked for had the clear understanding that they were competitive with the upfront purchase price of the software and would often take a lower profit margin because they used the easy money they made on software support to prop this up in the knowledge that once people invest in the software, the price to change to another software was higher than the price of support so people were unlikely to move products. I run my own business, I understand the need for a business to make money to survive, but my pricing is cost reflective. That is to say that each customer pays for what they get, not to subsidise R&D for other peoples software. Now I know this is not how the world works, but this is how things work in my mind.
Of course this is not necessarily true for Kolor either, and of course in overall terms, the price of the software is not that high and we know it is highly productive and generally good software. And also we know that users of APG 2.6 have the option of not upgrading. Just explaining my thoughts on upgrade fees / maintenance fees. I don't expect something for nothing, I just have a built in bias to 20% per annum standard maintenance costs!
I am a strong advocate for the software and I wish Kolor continued success as my photography is heavily tied to panoramic stitching and APG.
Regards Ian
The first pano which is star shot is nice. Then I like more the fenced in toned up than in stacked. Furthermore, between the other 3 panos i.e., setting sun, hegded and happy_Jan. Hedged is better than the other two.
Great pictures. My favorite are the first and the last one.
Happy_Jan - What lens and how many exposures? I new and am trying to get my head around focal length and number of pictures to take.
Also I like: Setting_Sun ...How many shots? Multiple rows?

According to Spalding Regional Hospital CEO John Quinn, research indicated that residents could relate better to the term hospital than to the term medical center.
"The hospital name describes better who we are," said Quinn, "It's defining a little bit more who we are."
The recently created brand Spalding Health comprises various health care entities in the area — among them Sylvan Grove Hospital in Jackson as well as the outpatient facilities Griffin Imaging and the Center for Rehabilitation Services. And Spalding Regional Hospital, which is also a part of Spalding Health, can better communicate these services through its new name, Quinn said.
Spalding Regional Hospital will remain a part of the Tenet Healthcare Corporation, and the services provided by the local hospital will also not change, Quinn said.
"It's not a downgrade," he said. "In fact, we continue to do more."
Along with the change in name comes a new logo for the hospital, which Quinn said will appear more modern.
"We also needed to modernize the look of our marketing material," he said. "It's helping us being a vehicle to better communicate who we are."

Explore animation from concept to finished product — from storyboarding, character design, and drawing techniques to movement, timing, filming and sound. Larger-than-life graphics of popular Cartoon Network characters provide a colorful backdrop to the exhibition, which also explores the history of animation and features a screening room and a cartoon museum.
Animation includes:
History – Learn about early animation and apparent motion. Using a praxinoscope, manipulate and spin three-dimensional objects to see them morph into a single animation. At the Penny Arcade, "crank" out animations with an old-fashioned mutoscope.
Animation Studio – Explore the process of animation, story creation, animator techniques and tools. Develop a storyboard from a series of picture cards, draw characters, enlarge drawings with a pantograph, and create scenes using layered cels and moving backgrounds.
Art in Motion – With help from Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, discover why art and math are important allies when creating characters, motion and change.
Science Laboratory – In Dexter's Laboratory, delve into the science and technology that make animation possible. Create the illusion of a bouncing ball with the technique of "squash and stretch" and find out how the action slows down or speeds up with time-lapse videos. You can also see yourself "hover" while exploring visual effects in a full-body interactive experience.
Sound and Stage – Discover the principles of sound and phonetics with characters from Chowder, Ben 10: Alien Force, and Kids Next Door. Explore the complexity of matching phrases to different mouth shapes, add your own voice to a silent animation and set the mood of a film by selecting background music from a variety of soundtracks.
Cartoon Museum – Take a seat in this intimate theater setting and view clips of popular animations while learning the secrets behind their production. Examine artifacts such as cels, models and storyboard drawings from classic and favorite animations such as Scooby-Doo, The Powerpuff Girls and The Flintstones.

Are you one of the lucky one's that's already had the delicious and eye candy pleasure of experiencing GLAM DOLL DONUTS yet? Founded by the super fab duo Teresa Fox and Arwyn Birch whom I have the pleasure of calling girlfriends of mine, the focus is on bringing a truly memorable donut, in an atmosphere that is nothing short of playfully vintage, unique and memorable.
If you haven't heard of Glam Doll Donuts yet, You're welcome! I can assure you that their donuts are a feast for the senses, a perfect daily taste bud delight that your soul will physically crave once you have one of their signature donuts. I'm both honored and was privileged enough to be able to Paint and Design the place with the girls of LULU and the dolls. We had a lot of fun with the place. Here is my way of sharing a bit of what we did, the only way I know how…VISUALLY!
So many fun projects on this site. We had a blast working with the dolls.
Above is the inspiration for the custom tile floor!!! Doing this saved costs on ripping out existing tile, installing new tile, and kept the old tile out of a landfill. This was the result:
We were so pumped on how things came out that we played up the design and stenciled the back entry tiles as well. Each of the stencils was hand cut by our team and stenciled by hand. SO worth it, for a one of a kind floor.
Other elements included, a glitter epoxy floor, glitter counter tops, stenciled ceilings in the GUYS and DOLLS bathrooms, Stenciled table tops… (which actually need to be redone…They never were sealed, we thought we'd have more time before they opened, but what do ya know…the girls open their doors and are an instant success!

While working on my NATO midterm story, about student protestors, I was able to gain a much better understanding of what the NATO summit means student protestors and their reasons behind opposing the summit. When I started gathering information, my research I had lead me to believe that the protestors were only challenging international violence. However after assembling my information and organizing interviews it was clear that there were many reasons why students were getting involved.
The NATO protestors have many reasons—including the war in Afghanistan, the threat of international action and global equality. However the one main issue students are against is the military action, as well as the influence NATO has on the international community, when dealing with arms issues.
By interviewing students who are heavily involved with protesting the summit and professional experts, who outwardly vocalize their opposition to NATO—I was able to gain a great deal of insight into the issues facing the global community.
However one of the most important areas addressed by several individuals we interviewed, was the fact that protestors needed to remain nonviolent. Using violence to stand up against violence is not only hypocritical but also distracting from the real issues. Although, some groups, like Black Bloc and Anonymous, are coming to Chicago with the intention of using violent demonstrations. It would not be unheard of to witness vandalism, rioting and/ or physical attacks, by both protestors and police.
Dr. June Terpstra warned against unjustifiable attacks from police. And suggested that protestors prepare themselves by bringing necessary tools—such as water and vinegar in case police use tear-gas/ pepper spray. Terpstra also suggested to be aware of your surroundings and that violence can come from anyone, at any time.
I gained a lot of information from my research and from the interviews, however the most beneficial aspect was I learned how to behave while attending the summit and that preparing for all contingencies is key.

Politics will mix with partying this Pride season as gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people and their allies around the world celebrate President Barack Obama's support for same-sex marriage and protest North Carolina's passage of a constitutional amendment banning same-sex unions.
When planning a Pride vacation, pick a destination where the scale of the celebration is one that you can handle, recommends Ed Salvato, gay travel expert and editor in chief of Man About World, a soon-to-launch gay travel magazine for the iPad.
Instead of the biggies such as San Francisco or New York City, which might be overwhelming, consider choosing "a nice, manageable Pride in an interesting location." Book early, as hotels fill quickly, and be sure to ask about Pride packages, says Salvato. "Often hotels will throw in something so your party starts as soon as you get into your room."
All are welcome to join in on the fun. For more tips on enjoying the best Pride fests worldwide, check out our guide:
Boston: June 1- 10
What Salvato loves about Boston Pride is the diversity of people from all walks of life who come out for the celebration. This time of year, he says, "shows Boston in its greatest light."
One highlight of Boston Pride is dancing in the streets. On Saturday, June 9, a Women's Block Party begins at 1 Boylston Place just after the parade. On Sunday afternoon, block partiers can pick between shaking their groove thing at the Back Bay Edition on St. James Avenue in Boston, or the JP Edition on Perkins Street in Jamaica Plain, which features a Dogs & Drag Fashion Show, family-friendly activities and five female DJs. Other options include themed Pride @ Night parties that take place all weekend long, including a Youth Dance, which kicks off at 7 p.m. on Saturday.
But Boston Pride is more than just one big party.
This year, cultural events include a human rights and education discussion as well as a free exhibit at the Boston Center for Adult Education called "Pride: 40 Years of Protest & Celebration," which chronicles the early history of LGBT advocacy in New England.
Early arrivals to the city can call Old Boston Tours to book the "Old Boston Original Secret Tour" and learn more about the extraordinary lives of the men and women who made Boston great. The $30 tour is 90 minutes, and reservations are required. Visitors will not want to miss the new American wing at Boston's Museum of Fine Arts, which includes a stunning Tiffany favrile glass window, "Parakeets and Gold Fish Bowl."

text: GPB suspends contract with PIK TV20.10.12 15:23Georgian Public Broadcaster (GPB) has suspended a contract with PIK TV. Director General of GPB has released a statement regarding its future relations with the TV-station. The statement reads as follows: "Lately, the Georgian public has been provided with incorrect information spread through various media sources about the Third Channel of GPB. GPB has been abstaining from public comment purposefully since it has been fulfilling its all obligations (including financial) towards the contractor company. "On October 15, one part of "PIK" TV's employees without prior agreement with GPB's management expressed protest on the air of GPB's Third Channel allegedly about belated salary liabilities. This standoff was followed by an unauthorized display of the Third channel TV-signal on that satellite, with which GPB had terminated relations. This move might increase GPB's expenditures. For further explanation: "1. According to the contract concluded on January 13, 2012 with "PIK" TV, the display of signal and its management is the exclusive authority of GPB and hence, its unsanctioned modification is harsh violation of the agreement. "2. Based on the same agreement, the content viewed by Third Channel of GPB's viewers, is the property of GPB. Usage of this content by employees of TV Company's employees with purpose of expression of claims as part of the internal dispute is categorically inadmissible, and represents violation of the agreement's terms. "GPB informed the company's management about the problem on October 16, and warned it that violation of the agreement's terms would generate revision of relations. In response to the letter, on October 17, General Director of "PIK" applied to GPB. According to the letter, General Director of "PIK" was taking the responsibility to notify the company's founders. On October 18, General Director of "PIK" applied to GPB with a request to terminate the existing agreements between GPB and "PIK" in agreement with the company's partners, and to begin negotiations. "GPB responded to the request through the letter and suspended business contacts with "PIK" unless the situation becomes clear. As for the relations of the broadcaster with the company "Globecast" : "The decision to terminate cooperation with the company was made on the October 11. The partner company was informed about termination the same day by email. On October 12, the broadcaster ceased the signal display to the relevant satellite. The corresponding decision followed the circumstances that in the period of several months the signal of the broadcaster's Third Channel was double displayed to Globecast and Turksat satellites as well. The latter delivered its service to the broadcaster free of charge in testing regime. GPB, in the frames of its exclusive rights made the decision to make the choice out of concurrent companies to the one with more advantageous terms. "Hereby we respond to the claims of some Non Governmental Organizations as in regards of the so claimed non transparent activities of GPB. Each report of GPB's activities (as well as financial) is posted on the official web-site of GPB together with video records of all sessions held by the Board of Trustees as well as other information that might serve to the interest of the public. We are prepared to listen to each claim regarding denying in providing the public information. We welcome any kind of audit – state of private to probe into GPB's activities". |
