Members of an Oklahoma Catholic church are up in arms over a new crucifix, which some claim portrays the giant schlong of the son of God.
The crucifix is a large rendition of a San Damiano cross, a common Catholic icon originating in Assisi, Italy. Comparison photos (thumbnail link) to other San Damiano renditions can be found at the link as well.
"There are a couple people who have left the parish, said the Rev. Philip Seeton, the churchs pastor. "There are people in the parish who dont like it and have stayed.
Critics of the crucifix take issue with what appears to be a large penis covering Jesus abdominal area. Seeton said the portion of the crucifix in question is meant to be Jesus abdomen "showing distension not a penis.
Seeton said, "Ive had people who have vocally said that thats what they see there. Ive had people who have been just as vocal who said thats not what theyre seeing there.
Janet Jaime, a local iconography artist who designed the crucifix, had no comment.
"I think it was painted according to the certain specific rules of iconography and church art, Seeton said of the crucifix.
The crucifix is about 10 feet tall. It has been hanging above the altar since Feb. 21.
"The crucifix is the straw on the camels back, said Cook, who has attended the church for 35 years. "I think its an embarrassment to our Lord. I think its an embarrassment to our parishioners. And I think its an embarrassment to our visitors.
Molly Jenkins, who is not a member of the church, said she attended a funeral at the church recently and immediately noticed the crucifix.
"I was appalled at the sexualization of Christ, said Jenkins, who is not Catholic. Jenkins said she contacted a Catholic friend to ask whether such crucifixes are common.
Her friend, Seannene Smith, said she visited the church Friday and also was disturbed.
"I was horrified, Smith said. "I believe in freedom of expression. I believe in artistic freedom. I believe that a church is a holy place, and I certainly dont want people telling anyone how to worship, but I was shocked, stunned, and if I hadnt been prepared already, I think I would have just been ill.

The Crown Inn - 7 en-suite bedrooms, bar and restaurant and extensive new menu the Crown is well worth a visit. Close to London, The Crown is situated on the attractive large wooded Chislehurst Common. The name Chislehurst is derived from the Anglo-Saxon words 'coesal' and 'hyrsk' meaning 'gravel wood'. If you enjoy walking then Chislehurst is on one of the Green Chain Routes from Mottingham Lane to Beckenham Park (4 1/2 miles) The Crown is very close to the well known Chislehurst Caves which extend for nearly 20 miles and date back over 4,000 years. The caves became more widely known after their use during the Second World War as an air raid shelter, not only for the locals but also for over 10,000 Londoners who travelled to the caves each night by special train. This was so well organised that people could pay 1d per night for a bunk and there was also a cinema, church and hospital for them to use during their time underground.

I'm probably going to be asked in a deposition today what my marital status is. Is the correct answer "single, according to the state of Tennessee," or "in a Vermont civil union," which is not a marriage? Hmmm.
News just came out and I'm off to teach a class (on Federal cases, no less!) Here is a preliminary link. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/12/07/1168113/-SCOTUS-Grants-Cert-on-Prop-8-Windsor-Cases With respect to Prop 8: Prop. 8 is granted on the petition question -- whether 14th Am. bars Calif. from defining marriage in traditional way. Plus an added question: Whether the backers of Prop.. 8 have standing in the case under Art. III.With respect to Windsor In Windsor, the government petition (12-307) is the one granted. In addition to the petition question -- whether Sec. 3 of DOMA violates equal protection under 5th Amendment, there are two other questions: does the fact that government agreed with the 2d CA decision deprive the Court of jurisdiction to hear and decide the case, and whether BLAG (House GOP leaders) has Art. III standing in this case.
Had they not granted cert, we (California, where I live, which really *should* be in the first round of states to legalize!) would be having gay marriages starting like, Monday. Hopefully they will rule in favor, but now it continues on hold till probably June, and who knows how they will rule.
I'm just glad they're finally ruling on DOMA. There were something like what, three or four DOMA cases that had made it to the level of the supremes?
This already went viral but is just too awesome. From the crowd getting married in Seattle minutes after the Washington law took effect
Even without that godawful FB code that Repo post (*HISSSSSSS*) it's still just dead-ending for me. Weird. :(
Shit done got real. Either way they decide, it's going to be a barnstormer (because reason and precedent dictate that they find Prop 8 unconstitutional, and the smart money is probably on them saying 5-4 that it's cool).
Or they could say that the ProtectMarriage people don't have standing and dismiss the case without answering on the merits (which would also vacate Prop 8). They could also do that with the DOMA case in regards to BLAG's standing, but that seems less likely I think.
True, although the fact that they've granted cert on the constitutionality issue suggests that they want to take it on. Of course, they could always get cold feet and dismiss cert as improvidently granted or rule there is no standing and decline to reach the constitutional question.
Yes. Also, in the DOMA case, I believe that even if BLAG is ruled to not have standing, the SCOTUS would still have to rule on the merits of that case because the gov't is required to enforce DOMA despite the DOJ's decision to no longer defend it. I forget what the term for that is. (edit: "case or controversy") The best possible scenario though is that SCOTUS strikes down DOMA's section III, and then broadens the ruling to also strike down section II as well. I don't find this extremely likely, but it's still worth hoping for.
No, that's good, because it shouldn't fucking matter. Unless you were being deposed in your own divorce trial.
I couldn't believe they accepted both, but I'm thrilled because this will result in double the hair-pulling from the social conservatives when they lose on both counts, which I'm fairly confident they will. It'll be another brick in the wall for their whole belief system, another blow toward those fading hopes of theirs that the country can be reclaimed. I want them to feel sad, alone, angry, and desperate...the very same emotions that those they have oppressed have felt for so many years. I'm loving the direction the world is moving. Of course, when the climate change wipes us all out, this won't matter much, but at least I'll die happier.
I have concerns. I'm concerned that the conservatives on the Court rushed to take these before Obama has any chance to make the Court more liberal.
Yeeee! EDIT: Seriously, how can anyone look at that picture and not just grin at how happy everyone is, goddammit?
I'd really rather they just let the Prop 8 ruling stand. Why take it to affirm it? I'd be surprised if they broaden it. On the other hand I find it interesting that they requested briefing on the standing issues in both cases. Maybe they just really want to add to standing jurisprudence and gay marriage is a side issue. .....Nah. But still, interesting. I'm not 100% sure it will go 5-4 against gay marriage. Roberts, Alito, Scalia, Thomas sure, but Kennedy has been ok on gay issues. Ginsburg, Breyer, Sotomayor, and Kagan are supposed to be in the bag, right?
With respect to DOMA, I could see them striking down section 3 and upholding section 2. I think that would appeal to a conservative, risk-averse court and would basically leave the decision to the states while limiting the federal governments ability to decide social issues for the country:
I don't get how Section 2 doesn't violate full faith & credit. I expect that the courts have ruled it doesn't because TEH GAYZ, using the excuse of "well marriage is special and everything else isn't"?
Maybe Roberts will continue trolling everybody by seemingly siding with the left wing in a hot-button case but limiting the power of Congress in doing so?
I was baffled by that too and looked into it. Apparently marriage is special -- they didn't make states which banned interracial marriage recognize those either. Great company to be in.
Until they went to SCOTUS (or maybe just district? I could be misremembering), which has historically resulted in favor of the state(s) with the more lax marriage laws (in that it essentially forced the more restrictive state(s) to recognize the marriage(s)). Essentially, it doesn't get enforced at first, but eventually the less restrictive laws prevail. Not that people always follow them.
Oh, well, he let them use his bathroom! How not racist can one man be? Maybe one day I'll be brave enough to let the blacks and the gays sit on the same toilet that my lily-white ass cheeks touch.
"You wouldn't be here at all if it wasn't for assorted older people!" is a great summary of the entitlement that elderly conservative voters seem to exhibit every time they got to the polls to vote some terrible person or policy into action. AARP should get it on a bumper sticker.
I have to say, Roberts (the GWB Golden Boy Appointee of Conservatism) was pretty surprising on his ruling concerning Obamacare. Someone here or at Other Forum speculated that he may be seriously considering the historical legacy of The Roberts Court over against his conservative cred. He's as intelligent a person as anyone who actually reads the news and considers historical impact and so on (unlike the infovoid that surrounded Romney for example) and he knows how history is turning. So I would be surprised if he broke away from the traditional view on this one, but not as surprised as a year ago. Or as others have mentioned, SCOTUS may take an easier road out by ruling different ways on different parts.

Content strategist Jennie Kim lays out the three components of a winning content strategy and...
Investment In Knowledge
Americans at all life stages are failing the literacy test. On Jump$tart's biennial Survey of Financial Literacy among 12th-graders, 2008's score of 48.3 percent was the lowest ever.6 Among the more than 46,000 students taking last year's inaugural National Financial Literacy Challenge, sponsored by the President's Advisory Council on Financial Literacy, the average score was 56 percent.7
Adults miss the mark on easy targets: three-quarters of Americans eligible for the federal Earned Income Credit (EIC) fail to claim this low-hanging fruit. As explained by Council vice chairman John Bryant, the EIC, retroactively available for three years, can amount to $4,000 per year. For families earning less than $40,000 a year, that's a missed windfall of $12,000.8 Consumers flunk in many other ways. Less financially knowledgeable individuals pay up to 46 percent more in credit card fees, Lusardi and Tufano report. A 2008 survey sponsored by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners found Americans lacking in basic insurance knowledge, averaging only 40 percent in response to basic questions on auto, health, home and life coverage.9 A motivating factor: 82 percent of respondents to a November 2008 poll from the American Psychological Association cited economic worries as their top cause of stress, up from 66 percent six months earlier.10
How are financial firms and companies responding, especially when such stress negatively impacts everything from customer engagement to revenue optimization? While some stay mum, others are taking steps to address the growing financial literacy problem.
The Value of Personal Connections
Visa/Wells Fargo
Since 1996, Visa USA's free, award-winning online Practical Money Skills for Life program has helped millions of Americans master the fundamentals of budgeting, saving and the wise use of credit. In 2004, Visa supported Wells Fargo Card Services on its Early Intervention Education: Empower-ing the Wise Use of Credit, a research initiative aimed at first-time cardholders. The program's pur-pose was to improve the understanding of responsible bor-rowing and credit management, while measuring the effects of education on credit behavior.

Asclepias speciosa "Showy Milkweed"
Undeniably stunning in bloom, everyone who can should grow at least one of our native perennial "Showy Milkweeds" as it is THE native host for our western Monarch butterfly, which lays its eggs on the stems and leaves. Thriving in poor, dry , well-drained soil, it's tough and vigorous with gorgeous large silvery-green, soft-to-the-touch leaves. Atop the 3' to 4' stems, the remarkably FRAGRANT large round clusters are 4" to 5" across and made up of lovely velvety pink and white star-like flowers. Bloom season occurs late Spring to late Summer. Sometime after bloom it will go deciduous but not to worry, it will certainly return next Spring with more stems. Grow it next to your driveway, parking strip, somewhere your hose won't reach, on a hillside and especially in a xeric or native garden. Does well in a large pot, too, 5 gal. & up. Now this is important: Asclepias speciosa looks terrible in a 4" pot and ships dormant until June. But don't dismay, just plant it, water it a bit the first year and don't worry if it disappears, it's just going temporarily dormant. Once it's established, you'll be delighted with the fruits of your patience. And so will our Monarchs, who can smell a milkweed a mile off. Look for their incredible chrysalises, glossy turquoise and emerald ringed with unbelievable glimmering gold beads.
NOTE: If you are planning to introduce Monarch caterpillars to this plant, we recommend letting it establish for one season before doing so. The plant - and the caterpillars will thank you!

Model 1 Genesis
Model 1 Japanese Mega Drive
Model 2 Genesis
3 model 1s
5 model 2s (although I think 2 don't work right)
2 SegaCD model 2s
2 Gamegears <- yeah, yeah. But it was part of that era.
Heh. I own way more Sega 16bit consoles than anything else.
I sadly don't own any Japanese models
NES (Model 2)
SEGA Genesis (Model 1)
E-Man's SEGA Genesis Collection: http://e-man-genesis-collection.blogspot.com/
a high def model 1 and a model 2 with a non-working reset button. I believe that model 2 is the reason Knuckles Chaotix won't work. Anyone got a spare model 1 32X adapter? Speaking of this, though, has anyone found that a certain revision/model of the model 2 had more problems with the 32X than others, be it earlier or later? I'm convinced the problem is my Genesis since I've gone through 2 different 32Xs and they both had the same freezing problem on Knuckles Chaotix. The only other possibility is the cable, but I would assume that would just screw up the video output, not crash a game.
3x PAL Model 1s
2x PAL Mega CD 1
4x PAL Model 2s
1x PAL Mega CD 2
2x NTSC Model 2s
2x PAL 32x
1x NTSC 32x
1x JAP Mega CD 2
1x JAP Mega Drive 2
So yeah, quite a few. My main setup that I use frequently is my region-switched MD2, MCD2 and 32x. One of the Mega CD 1s doesn't work, but apart from that they are all good.
1 Hi-definitions graphics Model 1
1 Model II (Performance AC Adapter and no A/V Cables)
1 Game Gear
1 Sega Nomad
Model 1 Genesis
Model 2 Sega CD
Sega CDX
JVC Wondermega Model 2
2 X Sega Nomad
Game Gear.
A Japanese Model 1
A North American Model 1, with a model 2 Sega CD and a 32X
And that's enough for my Sega 16-bit gaming needs
1x MultiMega
Just one, a European Model 2. That's all I need to play the games I have.
Maybe I will seek out an HDG Model 1 sometime in the future, but for now this is it.
1 NES (model 1)

Since I left and followed my own spiritual programme, I never looked back,
Thanks so much the Angels that guided me to your site, it is the truth and so be it,
Thanks again ORANGE for all your divine work
Love and Angel Blessings
Your story is all but too familiar to me and I have been active with the AA, NA and Al-Anon for about 6-7 years. I joined because of my wife that I sent to the "premier" rehab in our area where she learned how to sell literature for Alcoholics Anonymous. At first i was very happy that she joined, and actually thought that they saved her life, because they told me they did. My wife became a very good prospect hunter for the AA faith and book selling initiative. After about three to four years, I realized that she was destroying marriages, retirement accounts and college funds for people she had no reason or right too and complained. At that point the leeches of Alcoholics Anonymous set about destroying me. I am not an Alcoholic, I am an angry dry drunk as diagnosed by the con men, rapists and murderers of the local Intergroup recruited from jail, prisons and institutions. Please never call me a "normie" in the vernacular of the followers of Bill Wilson, I have paid way to much for that diagnosis.
Anyway, welcome and if there is anyway to help just ask.

If you're not an alcoholic then you're not a dry drunk, junior. You're just an also-ran. This post is very revealing - it tells the story of a man who had no imagination invested in building his marriage and he just let it circle the drain. Are you still married to this prospect hunter? Why did you allow her to trade in your testicles for AA literature? Interesting. Revealing.
I see you have gotten something to sink your talons into. Still trying to pry information out of me for a good 4th Step interrogation? You may have to help Newt Gingrich get elected, then maybe when a stepper is in the White House he can send me to Gitmo to water board a confession out of me.
"When you discover a prospect for Alcoholics Anonymous, find out all you can about him. " BB p.90, Working With Others
"Do not be discouraged if your prospect does not respond at once. " BB p.96, Working With Others
"Here was a prospect all right but, by the description, none too promising. " BB p.156, A Vision For You
You are definitely a "by the book" classic prospect hunter. Your tactics are so 20th century, this is the 21st century. Get with it will you marrietta.

I'd say "nice try" but that would be an exaggeration.
Please, junior, wait right there as I fashion a trophy for you made of Schlitz cans and Cointreau bottles celebrating your honor as the Best Not Really Dry Drunk on Earth For All Time.
I'll have you know I have gone on dry drunk benders that would make your drunkalog look like the kiddies playground at the Young Peoples in Alcoholics Anonymous that the covens bid on to see who gets to manipulate first.

It all seems to have started with Midtown in AA Area 13 in Washington DC with Mike Q. who was the Sponcee of Clancy I. Well anyway Mike Q. got caught by Marc Fischer at the Washington Post in his column the Raw Fischer. Now they have bidding wars for the ICYPAA conference where they bring all of the kids together and tell them that they have a made up disease that is going to be with them the rest of their lives. The last one was in California where they started the event by taking the kiddies on boat trips to Alcatraz and scaring the you know what out of them. Then later that night they took the kiddies to impress them at the expensive stores next door:

Alcatraz is closed except for tours. There's nothing operational about it - no prisoners, no staff. It is not a functioning prison. I was there photographing it at Thanksgiving. It's old and decrepit but hardly nasty enough to scare the shit out of anyone. Who pays for the kids' tickets? They're nearly $30 apiece.
I think you're grasping.
This is Marietta Davis wasting more of our time pretending to be seaangel.
I vote to ban Marietta from OP.

Ban one, ban all. Orange is in too deep for that. He'd be a fucking hypocrite if he did so.
It's not sea angle, idiot, it's sea angel. And I'm on this forum under a single, solitary address. I don't have time to be a sea angel.
Members of the AA faith never lie?

You haven't been spreading a Spiritual Disease to the masses like Typhoid Mary have you? How many people have you infected?
"Mary Mallon (September 23, 1869 – November 11, 1938), also known as Typhoid Mary, was the first person in the United States identified as an asymptomatic carrier of the pathogen associated with typhoid fever. She was presumed to have infected some 53 people, three of whom died, over the course of her career as a cook.[1] She was forcibly isolated twice by public health authorities and died after nearly three decades altogether in isolation."

He would be smart to ban. How much more do we have to endure?
Another JD problem that took a long time to resolve.
Articles of Criminals In Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous
There is a reason that blogs are moderated. It is actually very common place for forums to have rules of behavior. Such as no vulgarity, personal attacks, racists remarks etc. Also If it becomes obvious that a troll is on a site exclusively to derail intelligent conversation and then a troll actually becomes multiple trolls to waste more peoples time, I think it is time to look at options. I dont like heavily moderated sites where your comment does not get out just because you are presenting a different point of view. But there should be some limit to disgusting vulgar comments.
Then we have whoever put up Rehab is fraud a zillion times. They are trying to hijack the site IMHO.
The government having a hand in censoring private citizens is totally different then private websites. Because this is America we have the free choice to create site that we have control over.
Articles of Criminals In Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous
If people's true feelings are removed you have nothing but a Betty Crocker cookbook, circa 1912. Get real. Your precious "intelligent conversation" goes right down the drain.
If Orange opts to implement censorship here he will dilute everything he has worked for and become nothing more than a corporate voice for "niceness in recovery". Getting off substances is a bitch. Why should it be hidden under euphemisms and etiquette? Or is it that you just can't keep up?
I agree about REHAB IS FRAUD!!!!, and I said so in writing.
Heads up, AD - this is not a private website. Anyone in the world can tap into it. Nothing private about it.
How weak are you? How much whining can you churn out? You think censorship is smart? Are you an American citizen? Have you not tried to access Wikipedia today? They have a handle on a problem you may never had heard about. And unless you get your thinking straight you will be the next one to be banished, asshole.
Please, the bitch can't even spell.
AD - you are mistaken. seangel's grammar is atrocious. I would never post anything that had multiple typos and unfinished sentences. You may hate me, but you know me better than that.
I am truly sorry for your journey through AA, however.......................................
I am buoyed by the fact that we now have another beautiful rose growing among us.
Thank you.

Oh, seaangel, a rose is still a rose whether trampled or not. It does not become a weed simply because someone's heel grinds upon it. Keep that in your mind, filed under "seametaphor".

it seems like there won't be any moderating here on OP forum. Its become very babyish fighting amonst some. Too bad. I enjoyed blogging here with you and jr and Pennywise and a few others. Perhaps we could carry this over to another blog like mine called www.leavingaa.com I will moderate there. WE can go to the
the thread callled the Long and Winding Road ...I called it that to remind of us of ST The Neverending thread. Same thing. Just an idea. Of maybe live free and die you could start your own blog on wordpress.
GREAT!! See you there. Under a different name. Coming in under your door.
Sometimes we need to be "turned under" to compost and come up stronger, a better planting medium surrounding our feet, real sunshine to enable growth. I found it in AA, you did not. I don't begrudge you leaving AA and in many ways I understand it; but don't allow the vitriol on this forum to close your mind with regard to options. You will not find equal amounts of support and open-mindedness here. You will find extreme bias, rage, and a fair amount of impotence with regard to turning anger into action. Let them do their thing with you, invite you in, make you welcome. And as your story unfolds, perhaps they will begin their deliberate corrosion on your soul. This is not a happy place to celebrate life choices. It is a furious cauldron of indignation and loathing, where posters claim to be happy and balanced, free of the drudgery of the 12 Steps, but make no mistake: they are anything but free. They are tethered to their own anger here just as they were in any 12-step meeting. Nothing gets resolved here. It is nothing but a constant bitch session. My advice to you, seaangel, is to wisely manage the force of these ill winds and move away from this forum. You will not find fulfillment here, not in camaraderie, not in solutions, not in personal growth, which is almost uniformly scorned here as an AA concept.
Beware the accidental jibe. I wish you luck.
Wouldn't you rather be in the wonderful, joyous rooms of Alcoholics Anonymous? Maybe if you are good they will allow you to go on a group sponsored prospect hunt in the jails and prisons in your area to cheer you up.

As a disenfranchised Catholic, I offer you this, seaangel:
The angels can confer no blessings, dear. They are agents of God but do not have the power to bestow blessings upon us which they themselves generate. The word is used in Hebrew to denote indifferently either a divine or human messenger.
"We know on the authority of Scripture that there are nine orders of angels, viz., Angels, Archangels, Virtues, Powers, Principalities, Dominations, Throne, Cherubim and Seraphim. That there are Angels and Archangels nearly every page of the Bible tell us, and the books of the Prophets talk of Cherubim and Seraphim. St. Paul, too, writing to the Ephesians enumerates four orders when he says: 'above all Principality, and Power, and Virtue, and Domination'; and again, writing to the Colossians he says: 'whether Thrones, or Dominations, or Principalities, or Powers'. If we now join these two lists together we have five Orders, and adding Angels and Archangels, Cherubim and Seraphim, we find nine Orders of Angels." ~ New Advent
"The Nine Choirs of Angels
Angels (Regular)
These are the highest order or choir of angels. They are the angels who are attendants or guardians before God's throne. They praise God, calling, 'Holy Holy Holy is the Lord of Hosts'. the only Bible reference is Isaiah 6:1-7. One of them touched Isaiah's lips with a live coal from the altar, cleansing him from sin. Seraphim have six wings, two cover their faces, two cover their feet, and two are for flying.
Cherubim rank after the seraphim and are the second highest in the nine hierarchies or choirs of angels. The Old Testament does not reveal any evidence that the Jews considered them as intercessors or helpers of God. They were closely linked in God's glory. They are manlike in appearance and double-winged and were guardians of God's glory. They symbolized then, God's power and mobility. In the New Testament, they are alluded to as celestial attendants in the Apocalypse (Rv 4-6). Catholic tradition describes them as angels who have an intimate knowledge of God and continually praise Him.
Thrones are the Angels of pure Humility, Peace and Submisssion. They reside in the area of the cosmos where material form begins to take shape. The lower Choir of Angels need the Thrones to access God.
Dominions are Angels of Leadership. They regulate the duties of the angels, making known the commands of God.
Virtues are known as the Spirits of Motion and control the elements. They are sometimes referred to as 'the shining ones.' They govern all nature. They have control over seasons, stars, moon; even the sun is subject to their command. They are also in charge of miracles and provide courage, grace, and valor.
Powers are Warrior Angels against evil defending the cosmos and humans. They are known as potentates. They fight against evil spirits who attempt to wreak chaos through human beings. The chief is said to be either Samael or Camael, both angels of darkness.
Archangels are generally taken to mean 'chief or leading angel' ( Jude 9; 1 Thes 4:16), they are the most frequently mentioned throughout the Bible. They may be of this or other hierarchies as St. Michael Archangel, who is a princely Seraph. The Archangels have a unique role as God's messenger to the people at critical times in history and salvation (Tb 12:6, 15; Jn 5:4; Rv 12:7-9) as in The Annunciation and Apocalypse. A feast day celebrating the Archangels Michael, Gabriel and Raphael is celebrated throughout the Church Sep 29. A special part of the Byzantine Liturgy invokes the 'Cherubic Hymn' which celebrates these archangels and the guardian angels particularly. Of special significance is St. Michael as he has been invoked as patron and protector by the Church from the time of the Apostles. The Eastern Rite and many others place him over all the angels, as Prince of the Seraphim. He is described as the 'chief of princes' and as the leader of the forces of heaven in their triumph over Satan and his followers. The angel Gabriel first appeared in the Old Testament in the prophesies of Daniel, he announced the prophecy of 70 weeks (Dn 9:21-27). He appeared to Zechariah to announce the birth of St. John the Baptist (Lk 1:11). It was also Gabriel which proclaimed the Annunciation of Mary to be the mother of our Lord and Saviour. (Lk 1:26) The angel Raphael first appeared in the book of Tobit (Tobias)Tb 3:25, 5:5-28, 6-12). He announces 'I am the Angel Raphael, one of the seven who stand before the throne of God.' (Tb 12:15)
In the New Testament Principalities refers to one type of spiritual (metaphysical) being which are now quite hostile to God and human beings. (Rom 8:38; 1 Cor 15:24; Eph 1:21; 3:10; 6:12; Col 1:16; 2:10, 15) Along with the principalities are the powers (Rom 8:38; 1 Cor 15:24; Eph 1:21; 1 Pt 3:22; 2 Thes 1:7); and cosmological powers (1 Cor 15:24; Eph 1:21; 3:10; Col 2:15);Dominions (Eph 1:21; Col 1:16) and thrones (Col1:16). The clarity of the New Testament witness helps see that these beings were created through Christ and for Him (Col 1:16). Given their hostility to God and humans due to sin, Christ's ultimate rule over them (ibid) expresses the reign of the Lord over all in the cosmos. This is the Lordship of Christ, which reveals God's tremendous salvation in conquering sin and death at the cross, and now takes place in the Church. (Eph 3:10)
These angels are closest to the material world and human begins. They deliver the prayers to God and God's answers and other messages to humans. Angels have the capacity to access any and all other Angels at any time. They are the most caring and social to assist those who ask for help." ~ www.catholic.org
That is, if you believe that stuff.
Maybe you're just sort of a generic, Madison Avenue, marketing type of angel, one like, say, a Victoria's Secret angel. So here's a lesson for you: word use, image use, concept sharing are all trip wires here at OP. Be careful what you conjure.
You know, the manipulation manual of an adulterous, wet brained alcoholic named Bill Wilson and his side kick Dr. Bob the one who believed in beating children with modified classic toys?

A quote perhaps, but a quote originating on a Catholic website. It's certainly nothing I said.
First, if your gift were genuine you would never have assigned such erroneous characterization to me or my thoughts or beliefs. So for you, it's back to middle school, where we all learn what it means to grow into our lives. So far you ain't got it, babe.
I haven't been mislead by anything - if you believe it is so, please elucidate. Any loved ones I ever had would never waste their time by sending "light", whatever that is. Instead they would send home-baked goods or cash.
I must correct you: I am not "hurt". I understand what it is to live in this world and I am not swayed by Pollyanna bullshit or manipulated by rose colored glasses. I do not have a dark soul. I just speak what I believe to be the truth, and sometimes it takes a dark attitude to adequately convey the thought. So your "no more, it will not be allowed anymore", and your charming but illiterate "Your time as come" are so far off the mark that they make defensive end Jim Marshall look like a human GPS.
No harm intended.
That's all...lol
God damn it, get me a whiskey

Wow, you still haven't figured out that you're the one doing the constant bitching?

Road gritting
Find out which roads are gritted in the Borough
Our winter gritting service ensures that, where reasonably practical, main roads are kept clear of snow and ice and entrances to important public buildings remain accessible.
We use precautionary gritting from October to April to prevent the build up of ice on selected roads. View a list of gritted roads in the Borough.
Extreme weather
In times of heavy snow and prolonged freezing conditions we will also clear selected footways, pavements and smaller roads. This includes:
- Footways in town centres, station forecourts, footbridges near to and adjacent to schools, care homes and hospitals
- Footways and roads with steep slopes or inclines
- Smaller roads (which will be gritted once the precautionary roads are gritted and there is some certainty that they will remain open)
View a list of secondary roads cleared in extreme conditions.
Concerns about your road
If you have a concern about road gritting in your area please complete an online form or call the contact centre on 08456 122 660.

Segui post taggati #robert hawkins tra pochi secondi.
Registratiwhy are you so obsessed with the columbine massacre? It's kind of creeping me out.
you must be new.
i have morbid fascinations. not just columbine, anything that has to do with murder or what not. i like to research the killers to figure out why they did what they did, if it's because of bullying or they were invisible their whole lives you have to have some sort of sympathy for them. if they did it just to be "famous", they don't have my attention whatsoever. i know dylan and eric did it because they were bullied and treated like shit, plus eric was on zoloft which cause homicidal and suicidal thoughts, but they did want to go down in history, and they have. but you can't help but feel a tad sorry for them especially dylan who was depressed and just wanted to find love and no one understood him. eric was the dominate one and if those two were never buds, none of this would have happened, or eric would be in jail. so mix depression (dylan) with a guy who was depressed and had dark thoughts (eric) and you get a ticking time bomb that had multiple red flags that the teachers, and the family ignored. AND the police.
the omaha mall shooting fascinates me too, i think robert hawkins is one of few shooters who i feel horrible for. he was a very sweet guy but had a shit life and wanted to go die so badly, he hated humanity so much he decided to take a few souls with him, he didn't want a full blown massacre, just enough to get his name out since no one knew he existed.
just saying, some shooters are victims themselves. columbine created eric and dylan's rampage. they didn't do it for the hell of it. there is always a reason.
and that is why it is so fascinating. the human mind is a dangerous thing. some people who are bullied can handle it, some kill themselves, some kill the people who didn't do anything to help and then kill themselves. it's reality.

A bill has been introduced in the Kansas legislature this week that would prohibit the promotion of sustainability. Here is a link to the one-page bill:
Scientists have long believed that lava erupted from certain oceanic volcanoes contains materials from the early Earth's crust. But decisive evidence for this phenomenon has proven elusive.
Scientists have determined the temperature near the Earth's center to be 6000 degrees Celsius, 1000 degrees hotter than in a previous experiment run 20 years ago.

Funny, in Asheville, it was the business owners who wanted to create their own little police force...um, "ambassadors".
Maybe they could use the (ooh, la la!) cabaret taxes to pay for a restroom trailer or 4-pack of porta-potties to park on Ann Street from, say 8pm-3am every Friday and Saturday, instead of adding nebulous duties for private security to patrol public streets. You could fit them in one parking spot, and cut down on the mentioned public urination problem. I of course don't remember EVER peeing in public back in my salad days of youth, no siree, Bob, but these young whippersnappers with their Red Bull and Jaeger-bombs have all that diuretic impact to deal with that us humble brew-swillers didn't.
Foodmancing, Thanks for stereotyping all door guys and bouncers. I work as a bouncer at a high frequency bar on King Street a few times a month for some extra income and because I do other business with the bar. I am highly college educated, have a normal size neck, and while I have been called many things in my life, 'goon' is not one of them.
Further, the other bouncers I work with are like me...have big boy jobs, families, and are upstanding members of the community. All of us have high education. In interest of being honest, one of our guys necks is a bit fat...however he would never be considered a 'goon.'
Oh, and $50 a night wouldn't get me off my couch.
Because there has never been a 'no-neck goon' cop. They all have masters degrees, eh foodmancing? derp. But I agree, it is a bad idea. If the city wants bouncers to police the streets, then they need to pay them to, not the bar owners.
Does anyone remember the Two Keys Tavern incident a few months ago? Telling Bar security they are responsible for policing the sidewalks and parking lots will end bad, period. With every bar in the city taking on security just think of the idiots that will suddenly be empowered for the first time in their more than likely pathetic life. Expect bloody beat downs and a spike in covered-up sexual assaults. Great Job gang
Because its a great idea to turn over enforcing order on the public sidewalks to a no-neck goon who dropped out of HS making $50 a night. Yea, no way that goes bad.
Tara hits the nail on the head as she always does.
Public schools are nothing more than communist indoctrination camps. Period.
As the Scarlet Pimpernel used to say: "Standards Standards"
"It shall be the responsibility of Late Night Entertainment Establishment personel (sic) to clear..."
That last word is very problematic. Are these bouncers going to be able to use batons and truncheonst? CS gas? Tasers? How about leashed snarling dogs?
Police are a legitimate use of tax funds. And these businesses definitely pay taxes.
idiots and hypocrites... CCL lied and said they would take this to court repeatedly if the county & state ever came up with the $$$ for the project. Why waste taxpayer $$$ for Mom Nature to wipe their a$$ again as before?
M Catastrophe should just change the title of his column to "Trolling the Libertarians"
IDK, all for increased safety here.
But this ordinance stinks of the City Powers That Be tendency to sterilize King of any flavor or character.
Much of Lower King could be a minimall anywhere.
Upper King has a vibrant and diverse mix that attracts crowds. Silly me,I always thought sidewalks were for hanging out. And what about the buskers and street musicians? There were some on Upper King tonight. They add great vibes to the street scene. Will that be illegal too?
FWIW, Savannah and Asheville have great and much more street music and atmosphere in and around bars.
Charleston finally starts loosening up but noooo have to put the Smackdown on that!
The City won't be happy until all of King is the soulless wasteland that much of South of Calhoun is. All so Edna and Al Fannypack of Ohio can feel "safe" waddling up King.
I guess the City will just ban bars next and install a KOA campground instead.
Travis have u been to upper King, at 1:30 on a Saturday night lately? Not trying to pick an argument, but I would like to know.
These companies you see advertising all sorts of medical products (catheters, diabetic supplies, ED products, scooters, etc.) on TV are making money hand over fist and every penny is coming from the 50% paying taxes!
Here's how it works ... They charge Medicare patients the $100 annual deductible, I think $0 for Medicaid, and say they require the client 20% co-pay, but most waive that under the guise of a "hardship" waiver. They then pocket the Medicare allowable. People paying the extra 20% are suckers and that's more profit to the supply company. If you call them and say you want to pay cash they refer you to another company. You call that company and get quoted a significantly lower cash price. This other company is owned by the same people, but they keep cash transactions separate from insurance so they don't get caught charging far less to the cash customers. The Medicare allowable is much more than the cash price, which also has a huge profit margin. There is no telling how much profit they are making on insurance based transactions. It's absolutely obscene I'm sure!!
The scooters you see on TV cost $40 to $60k each. A basic wheelchair can easily cost $2 to $5k. Yet you can but a luxury car for under $40k and a bicycle for $100.
Why are scooters & wheelchairs so expensive? Medicare, Medcaid, & other forms of insurance. Get the gubment out of medical & insurance transactions and the cost of these items would be pennies on the dollar compared to current costs.
Wanna know why the SEC never catches big Wall Street banks breaking the law? They don't want to. Go work for the SEC for 5 years then parlay that into a cushy high 6 figure salary at Goldman Sachs.
The bigger, more far reaching, and intrusive gubment is, the more opportunity there is for corruption and easier it is to get away with it.
When the banking crisis happened guess who was a high ranking executive at FannieMae? Barney Franks boyfriend!! And Frank was chairman of the powerful Banking Committee, which has oversight of the GSE's like Fannie & Freddie. And Frank constantly cried foul for years as the Bush administration warned of a coming banking & housing collapse. Then the Dems blamed Bush!!
Statism? It's the opposite of "statism." This is the privatization of a basic government function. Isn't this the stuff your libertarian wet dreams are made of?
Also, the ordinance gives the responsibility to the establishment to police the sidewalks and parking lots, but it doesn't require that that function be performed by an employee. I'm sure the responsibility (and probably any associated liabilities) can be contracted out. This ordinance looks like a great opportunity for someone looking to start a security firm.
It is interesting to note that, it is the city's smoking ban which is putting so many people on a narrow stretch of concrete in front of AC's, which was a popular smoking bar long before upper King became so wildly popular.
But there is a problem, please anyone take a stroll up King St at 1:30am on any Saturday before you disagree. In the long run closing King to traffic on certain nights from Cannon to Radcliffe may be the only solution.
I do have to agree with Haire on the gist of his article; if the police can barely contain the drunken masses (which is true, I've seen it), how can private enforcement hope to cope short of cracking skulls like security at a Stones concert?
Good points Ned. I think it is important to point out that the P&C article was specifically referencing what hospitals bill Medicare. No mention of it, but I assume it is the same for Medicaid, which is free medical care for the professional poor.
For reference regarding Trident Medical being crooks, let me share my experience. Last summer my collar bone was broken in an accident in Mt Pleasant. The emergency room visit ending up costing me $2,300, and here's the rub. It was a bad break which required surgery, so they did nothing. Understandable, but that kind of money seems like a lot for a doctor spending less than 10 minutes on me and providing a recommendation.
So my private practice ortho specialist normally preforms surgeries at the Trident East Cooper facility. His bill for the surgery was slightly under 2k, the anesthesiologist charged $750. Both reasonable prices.
The price Trident wished to charge me for JUST the room for a 2 hour outpatient surgery?...15,300$ !!! Is it just me or does that seem a bit extreme?
If I were on medicare or medicaid that ridiculous bill would have gone directly to the taxpayers.
In this morning's P&C, big article about the how closing the sidewalks around hospitals has forced smokers into parks and neighborhoods to smoke.
Who could have seen that coming?
Here's my question: If the city has such power over the sidewalks, why is it abdicating that same responsibility when it comes to bars? Will Hanks have to have same requirements as AC's.
Statism's really cool until it affects you, eh?
IF the bars have to provide that service in conjunction with the officers, then I'm all for it. A bit of shared responsibility between the city and the "Late Night Entertainment Establishment" would be a good thing.
I hope the same rules apply for the Spoleto events too?

I have no idea what WC is or what to do? Advice please!!
Well, let me give you some background. I am 20 years old and I live in Louisiana. I'm studying to be a vet tech. I started working for a large chain pet/supply store where pets and supplies are sold about 2 and half weeks ago. I noticed after my first few days a few red, itchy bumps but thought nothing of it since ive never had an allergy to anything before.
A week and a few days into working there, while working with the small animals, I had a full scale allergic reaction that resulted in anaphalaxis(sp) and had to leave work and have my father rush me to the er. The er doctor told me point blank that it was an airborne allergy to the things at my job (feed,bedding,animals,environment,etc). When i told him where i worked and what i was studying, he said "not anymore". I had to make an appt with a specialist but since I cant afford much, it is at the low cost hospital in a month. I was told by my manager that i cant come back to work until im "medically released". The er doctor refused to sign off on a medical release because he felt it was "too dangerous". He also gave me an epi pen and several other medicines that i will be on for at least two weeks because the reaction was so severe. He also told me not to go back into the store if i could avoid it. I was unable to even leave my home for 6 days after the reaction because of swelling and lethargy. This has NEVER happened to me before. A few days after the reaction, I received papers saying to contact a claims Rep for workers comp. I know nothing about workers comp, how it works, or what to do. Ive called the claims Rep but she is out of her office for a few days and hasn't called me back. Can someone please explain workers comp to me. I honestly didnt even know what it was and called my employer to find out, but they said the claims rep would tell me. After an internet search i came here. Does it matter that I was only there for a short while? What's going to happen if I cant go back to work there? I don't want to quit because I loved the job, but I'm scared to go in. What happens if I stop breathing again? Ive been to another pet store since the reaction but had NO REACTION at all, but when I went into my job to get my stuff, I immediately had trouble breathing again. I'm so confused on what all this means . Some advice please? |

Workers' compensation is a form of insurance providing wage replacement and medical benefits to employees injured in the course of employment in exchange for mandatory relinquishment of the employee's right to sue his or her employer for the tort of negligence. When you do get ahold of the claims rep and then they will give you a list of normally 3 Dr's to see and you pick one from that list. If you are already seeing a Dr then you can suggest that one and see if they will accept. The MAIN thing a/b W/C is that you must obey by what they tell you on treatments, appointments, etc. For example you have an appt on Friday but your family reunion is that day, well tuff luck go to the appt. and not the reunion.. W/c Ins. is a WHOLE different world than regular insurance, the only good thing is that you don't pay for your treatment your employer does. Also since you cannot work you may be entitled to TTD payments ( Temporary Total Disability ), it all depends on the Dr's notes / restrictions. Well I'm sure others will chime in but that gives you an idea.. |

RE: I have no idea what WC is or what to do? Advice please!!
workers comp is employer purchased insurance that protects them from an employee's injury claim.
it pays both medical and disability. each state has their own rules and court system to handle disputes. comp insurance prevents employees from filing a civil suit in most cases and generally provides reduced benefits without a court fight and long wait that comes with civil litigation. more on Louisiana's system here: http://www.laworks.net/WorkersComp/OWC_WorkerMenu.asp |

President Obama, Bill Clinton, Dave Matthews Visit Bristow
Crowds brave chilly night, long lines at Jiffy Lube Live for Obama's swing-state campaign stop just days before Tuesday's election.
A huge crowd braved long lines — some waiting as long as five hours — and a cold Saturday night to hear President Barack Obama make his case for reelection at a grassroots rally at Bristow's Jiffy Lube Live amphitheater. The campaign stop also featured former President Bill Clinton and Virginia-native Dave Matthews. In his late-night address to the crowd, Obama cast the election as a choice between two different visions of America. "The people who need a champion are the Americans whose letters I read late at night; the men and women I meet on the campaign trail every day," Obama said. "It's about the kids dreaming of becoming scientists or doctors, engineers or entrepreneurs, diplomats or even a president. They need a champion because the…

Superintendent delays retirement
Updated: February 14, 2013
The board asked him to stay because of changes in the district. Denman says retirement can wait, because to him, students are what's most important.
"Many times, as I got out in the community and might go and get lunch in a fast food place at noon, I'll see a student I had 30-years ago. They'll say, 'you know you were right to keep me after school. I hope you know that lesson meant a lot to me,'" Denman says.
Denman who grew up in the district and was a teacher now plans to retire in the summer of 2015.

Deconstructivism Interior Concept – Inclusively Designed, Niels van Roij
The sprawl of large cities in 2020, increasing millions of inhabitants travelling within them, and a growing number of immobile elderly people formed the starting point for Vehicle Design graduate's Niels van Roij's inner-city vehicle.
Niels' car is aimed at city commuting and short distances, though it isn't confined to this. The inclusively-designed and adjustable interior – the dashboard can be brought closer for example – can be used by many different people, regardless of age, physique or gender, while the basic design can be adjusted at the dealer.
Professor James Goodwin of Age UK, and one of the awards judges, says, 'The designer is to be congratulated for developing a concept with high mainstream potential. It addresses the needs of older drivers for whom this activity of daily living is indispensible.'

A Poly-Wood Design
What happens to all the milk jugs that have been recycled throughout the years? In 1990, in a garage in Northern Indiana, an innovative idea was taking shape. High school friends noted the high performance characteristics of plastic and its use in outdoor applications. President Doug Rassi and Mark Phillabaum (Sales), founders and owners of Poly-Wood, Inc., discovered they could extrude recycled milk jugs into plastic lumber. That lumber could then be used to design and build outdoor furniture with fundamental performance qualities. From this basic notion, they and Garden.com are able to offer an innovative, creative solution to your patio furnishing needs. Each piece is backed with a five year warranty.

A movie about an illegal alien attempting to obtain citizenship by marrying a U.S. citizen? How cute.
Meanwhile, in Arizona...
Hey...good call. Definitely should've flip-flopped the wedding.
I agree! Samantha was totally cringe-worthy in this film... I had to cover my eyes & mouth many times she came on the screen acting like a 12 year old, or talking like a dirty whore. The part where she goes nuts after she drops her bag (and subsequently condoms) in the market, is embarrassing! Liza's act was the best part of the movie, and my main thought was that the gay wedding should have been at the end instead of the start, so to leave some sort of good impression before the credits roll.
Mr. DiGiovanna:
Usually when you pan directors you come up with your own insults and whether I disagree, you are original and entertaining. But calling Michael Moore's editing manipulative? That has been used so many times that there are five patents out on it. I think you owe someone money for that one. And when you call Error Morris "self-serving" because he has a style only makes you sound like a jealous film school drop out.
Otherwise, I agree that Gibney is the best of the three, but they all have their place. I hope everyone goes to see this one. It is appalling and diminishes any hope in our democracy that I had left, almost.

Dear Dr. Grimm
As usual you hit the nail on the head, this time with Dune. It is an abysmal movie and a great descecration of one of the great classics of science fiction.
For readers who want to see (parts of) the Dune Series in video, the DVDs to get are the SciFi (yeah, I know they changed the name by they rarely show real sci-fi anymore either) Channel's two mini-series Dune and the sequel, Children of Dune.
Info on Dune at: http://www.amazon.com/Herberts-Sci-Fi-Mini…
and Children of Dune at: http://www.amazon.com/Herberts-Sci-Fi-Mini…
The first is out of print and can be found cheaper on eBay (Korean re-issues). I found used copies at a number of places on Google's shopbot.
I have nothing to gain from any of the sellers. Just passing the info along for those interested and those who care.
These two sets are light years better that the Lynch version and probably as good as it gets, unless some producer wants to bankroll a Star Wars series (full - the whole 9) size and type production.
This has to be the funniest, most brilliant review I've ever read...
"and the pale-face makeup and hairdo make him look like some sort of anemic hipster clown."
I'm still laughing...
Gee, it sounds pretty good... But at the same time, the premise doesn't really sound that revolutionary. Glad you liked it though.
The theatrical versions of "Lord of the Ding Dongs" are superior, as they are SHORTER, and Howard Shore's music was tightly written to fit them instead of the filler tracks that are slopped over the extended versions.
As an example of how the theatrical versions are superior, watch the final battle between the Uru-kai (is that how it's spelled?) and Aragorn in "The Fellowship of the Ring." The extended version has a goofy moment in which the villain licks his own blood off a knife that had been stuck into his leg. The theatrical version excises that nonsense, but edits the action much more coherently, and with heart-pulsingly climactic music.
Another example is during "The Return of the King." The extended version contains a scene of the Witch King of Angmar (or whatever -- it's a Nazgul wraith-thing on a flying lizard) attacking Gandalf and destroying his staff (in no way is that symbolically phallic...). Then a horn sounds in the distance, and the Nazgul just flies away in the middle of the battle. It's a stupid moment; he could have finished off Gandalf and THEN flown away. This anticlimactic nonsense was cut from the theatrical version for good reason.
So, it's your call: Do you want to watch 8.5 hours of "Lord of the Rings" that has all the best stuff in it, with better editing and music -- or do you want to watch 11 hours with lots of sluggish character development and back-story about the homey lives of Hobbits?
i love this movie it is the best horror movie ever! Everyone i know said that at the first 5 or 10 minuites they had to walk out the theater because it was so scary!!! but i watched it and isabelle was awesome!!! i wish that i could be in a movie like that. i wish i can be an actress like her and everyone else!!! i want to know how you made isabell look old!!! that was awesome!!! i hope there will be another orphan!!! thats how good it is!!!i wanna be an actress just like her!!! i wish i could meet her. but ill probably be a little freaked out around her because of that movie she made!!! well i think the movie is awesome and keep on making those movies isabelle!!!
I have to agree that BOTH the books and the movie sucks.
My sister is a huge Twi-fan and fell in love with the series after she watched "Twilight." To see what the hype was all about, i watched the movie. I think i aged ten years by watching it, cause it dragged on for so long! The only action in the movie lasted about five secounds and i felt ripped off! I tried to read the first, hem hem, 'novel' but i was bored out of my skull by the secound chapter. If i try to read the rest of it, I'm pretty sure I would end up blowing my brains out.
The really sad part of all this is... these are the ONLY BOOKS MY SISTER HAS EVER READ and she says that they are the best books ever.
I have no problem saying that I am a bookworm, because I can seriously lay down some books, but i wish i could convince my sister to try other authors.
Oh and for you Twi-teens out there. I have an author for you! SHERRILYN KENYON
Paronormal Romance- "Dark Hunter" novels- Vampires with a twist! All her books are AWSOME! And you don't have to read them in any order to get the story either.
I like the books and so i watch the movies when they come out. I enjoy the fact that they are one of my favourite books brought to life ( although in a critic sense i don't think the books are massive grammy winners i just like the easy reading and romantic story), but im not going to delude myself into thinking that the acting is brilliant. You have got to admit they need to cheer up i mean do they ever actually have a laugh. At least in the books they are playful and well normal. I just wish stewart was happier, i don't even know where this too pale stuttering awkward girl has come from because she aint this bad in the books, o and edward is much more cocky and natural around bella, he's too intense in the films.
Sorry Bongo, I have no idea who you are!
P.S. James Digiovanna, if you are out there, reading this, and if you think you know who I am, EMAIL ME!!! Tell me about your farts!!!
WTF.... which stands for, "Why the fart?"
Does the fart somehow lead to the beheading?
I want to see a mainstream Hollywood movie about the repercussions of farts.
I've waded through many a self-absorbed and contorted reading into Eraserhead, but this is the best summation of the film I have read. Thanks.
Well the trailer looks pretty good. Good sound, good cinematography. I'd watch it, I think, based on the trailer, but I'd skip it, of course, based on your review.
Um, whatever, Twi-bitches, the movie AND the book sucked. Bad. And I'm a teenage girl. Who likes other vampire novels. And by "other" I mean "real". STFU and go get a life besides lusting after a fictional angsty teenage flashlight.
"W" is a weird movie in that it's amazing it got made, considering it came out when Bush was still in office. I am glad it did, even if it's somewhat slight as cinema. The movie is indeed a giant F.U. to the president, but it's even worse than that, because it looks at him not with scorn so much as a devastating pity. The movie dissects GWB's character and concludes that Bush is at all times lost and confused, motivated by a bizarre need to prove himself without actually doing anything that requires forethought or competence. Part of what makes "W" a strange experience is that it removes the outside world from the depiction -- almost the entire story is set in GWB's inner circle, and the effect is claustrophobic. The point is that GWB is in an insulated bubble removed from the damage he's causing the country and the world, but the movie's lack of a fuller context has the odd effect of making his tragic foolishness seem personally pathetic instead of what it really was -- publically horrendous.
Things that are wrong with "The Lovely Bones":
-- Too much narration by the dead girl
-- Rachel Weisz is hardly in the movie
-- Susan Sarandon has one decent sequence and then is hardly in the movie
-- Mark Wahlberg acts his role "cute"-style as if he's in a cuddly commedy
-- The girl who plays the dead girl has an acting range almost as wide as a tiny rainbow!
-- Heaven resembles a music video for "Lucy in the Sky With Teletubbies"
-- Story creates a bogus dilemma between Getting the Killer, and Healing the Family
-- Dead girl can inahbit a living person, but only to kiss some dude, not catch a murderer
-- When the dead girl finally goes to heaven-heaven and there are a bunch of hobbits there to hug her and jump on the bed, I found this to be inappropriate and over the top
