Gina Broadbent
Gina, 61, a decade long card-carrying member of AARP, became a first time/only time mother at the age of 38. She left her corporate career in communications and human resources for an "extended" (about 18 years!) maternity leave. Gina jumped headfirst into her stay-at-home mother role to the max, serving in every volunteer assignment for which she could raise her hand; room mother, cookie mother, religious education teacher, and perpetual field trip chaperone. Now, with an empty nest, Gina is back in the full time work force for a few more years. Like a Monday morning quarterback, she remembers with a chuckle her "helicopter Mom" days when she fretted over her daughter's every sniffle, snubbed birthday party invitation, and less than "A" grade on five paragraph essays. She enjoys texting daily with her now 23 year-old daughter about clothes, career, cooking, and yes, even "boys."
Lydia Chiappetti
Lydia, 58, has earned her empty-nester status. After having launched her two twenty-something children, she immediately became a part time caregiver to her aging parents. During this difficult life transition, she carved out time to write, and since 2011, she has been involved with the East Hill Writers Workshop. Although hands-on parenting is slowing down, the calls and texts from her daughter and son are speeding up. She feels more like a 24/7 therapist without a degree. When not on the phone with her kids, Lydia can be found tutoring in local city schools, participating in her French speaking group and enjoying her yoga practice.
F. Nicolas D'Ambra
Nicholas, 47 years old, is a mostly work-from-home kind of Dad. He runs a wholesale cocoa business, manages several rental properties with his wonderful and supportive husband, and in his SPARE time he throws children's parties for the preschool set. He wears so many entrepreneurial hats that his head is no longer visible to the naked eye. Five years ago he found his dream position…being a Dad to his son Ben born via surrogacy. Five weeks ago his duties increased with the birth of his daughter, Charlie. He couldn't be happier with the extra "workload." He feels it shouldn't matter that he's a gay Dad, just that he's trying to be a good Dad.
Michelle Eisler
Michelle, 44, became a mother at the age of 38 through the incredible, taxing, emotional crazy beautiful ride called adoption. Having worked as a restaurant hostess, fragrance demonstrator, visual merchandiser, and spa manager she was intent on going to return to work after her maternal leave was up. Today, Michelle is now a SAHM (stay-at-home- mom) who loves to cook, read and has learned a lot about food intolerances, specialty baking and label reading since her daughter arrived. In addition, she loves to do laundry half way, run the dishwasher but not empty it, and pretend she's not home when the doorbell rings because she is horrified to be seen without make up. She hopes that her entrance into MotheringintheMiddle.com will be the start of a beautiful thing. Her essay was chosen for the anthology The Zen of Midlife Mothering.

Our wilderness is under an unprecedented attack from Trump and anti-conservationists in Congress. Help us fight back.
In what conservation groups say is a win for science over political manipulation, a federal judge ruled Wednesday that the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service must revise its recovery and habitat designation plans for the northern spotted owl.
"Today is a great day for the people of Oregon — and the country — as the U.S. Department of the Interior withdrew legally flawed plans for the management of Oregon's western public forests under the Bureau of Land Management. This important decision will help preserve ancient forests that provide critical wildlife habitat, clean drinking water and outstanding recreational opportunities — all of which positively impact the economic vitality of Oregon's coastal communities.
With the spotted owl population in the Pacific Northwest continuing to decline, a long awaited decision on the status of the 2008 spotted owl recovery plan was welcomed last week by those of us who work on northwest forest issues.
The Obama Administration has taken action that would likely scrap a Bush Administration plan that decreases protections for the Pacific Northwest's threatened spotted owls.
The new Administration asked a federal district court on March 31 for permission to withdraw Bush's final northern spotted owl recovery plan and revision of the northern spotted owl critical habitat.

Animals are funny people
Riley and I have a new bedtime ritual. I take my allergy pills, then he hops up on the vanity and I pour him a glass of water, which he drinks while I'm brushing my teeth. He hops down when he's done, I empty out the glass, and we all go to bed.
I know a lot of cats like fresh water, but he has no interest--whatsoever--in the running faucet. He wants a glass of fresh water. It's pretty amusing, although I think Jen finds it funnier that I will actually indulge him. ;)

Hillary Clinton, the woman who has the entire media on her side and can't be bothered to answer any questions about herself truthfully, is currently tweeting out a list of twenty questions that Donald Trump needs to answer right now.
Before firing off a storm of tweets, she started with this:
In light of @kurteichenwald's report on the Trump Organization's dangerous ties, here are 20 questions that Trump needs to answer—now.
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) September 14, 2016
And what are some of those questions? If you missed the above Tweet, you'd get the impression she was asking herself these questions. The first one takes the cake in setting the record for being the dumbest Hillary Tweet yet.
1. Will you sever ties with your company linked to foreign leaders, questionable organizations, and criminals if you become president?
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) September 14, 2016
Hey Hillary, will you sever your ties with Middle Eastern nations who've donated to your Foundation that punish homosexuals with death and repress women's rights? I doubt it – I imagine we'll see her do just what she did when she headed the State Department, and reward her donors handsomely with weapons deals.
3. While refusing to release your tax returns, how will you confirm that you do not have dangerous financial ties to bad actors abroad?
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) September 14, 2016
Alternative question: while refusing to release your medical records, how will you confirm that you don't have any health problems? This is especially a pressing question given that you claimed to have no health problems whatsoever, then claimed to have an undisclosed pneumonia diagnosis after fainting on Sunday.
4. If you were willing to work with Qaddafi—a known terrorist and dictator—is there anyone you aren't willing to make a deal with? Who?
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) September 14, 2016
Hillary has described former Egyptian dictator Hosni Mubarak and his wife as "friends of the family." Among his crimes included torturing dissidents, police killings, and persecution of LGBT people. Donald Trump is willing to work with dictators – but at least he isn't befriending them.
9. Have you or your campaign discussed U.S.-Russian relations with the Russian billionaires with whom you've done business?
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) September 14, 2016
I'm sure the answer to this question is yes – just as Hillary has discussed relations between the Federal government and financial industry with the Wall Street banks she's taking hundreds of millions in speaking fees and campaign contributions from.
Does Hillary Clinton have any objections to Trump that she herself isn't herself guilty of to an even worse extent? They don't call her "crooked Hillary" for nothing…

Parenting any teenager is tough but parenting a teen that is addicted to drugs or alcohol can be definitely overwhelming. In addition to addiction come sensations of guilt and anger. There might be a great deal of self-blaming or anger toward your teenager for the choices he or she has actually made. It's crucial to work through these sensations. Dependency is an illness that impacts the entire household. In order to move on in recovery the entire family might possibly require expert aid.

These things just injure your teenager. It is necessary for teens to learn duty. They should know that actions have effects and not think you will always fix whatever.
Family TherapyTreatment Approaches for Drug Addiction
Hungry – Although food comes instantly to mind (when does not it?), there are lots of other things for which we can " substance abuse counseling cravings." All of us require a sense of worth, connection to others and to something larger than ourselves, appreciation, and numerous others. Miss out on a few of these standard psychological needs for long and we can end up unfortunate or depressed.
Afraid – In the Tarzan motion pictures I saw as a kid, there were these locals with blowguns who would shoot darts coated with toxin that would render an individual briefly paralyzed. Fear can do the exact same thing – immobilize us into inaction. Worry of failure, of rejection, of success, of the future, you call it, we get too scared and we freeze up.
Given that 1996, the variety of substance abuse treatment slots has actually increased more than 53% mostly due to boosts in outpatient and methadone upkeep treatment.
I believe that the majority of moms and dads are really relying on of their kids till a child starts behaving uncharacteristically. It wasn't till my kid started pulling away to his room when he received particular call that I started remembering. I began to question when he started closing his door and I had to remind him to open it. I asked myself why when he became safeguarded about my entering his space. I became curious when I reached for his book bag and he grabbed it initially.

When it comes to stopping teenage drug abuse the moms and dads hold the most affect. Teenagers who make the choice to not use drugs generally have a strong family worth system.

Re: "Sicko"- the movie--- any bad health related expereinces in YOUR family?
My family had a health related experience:
In October 2006, my grandfather broke his leg in Atlantic City, New Jersey(no, he didn't get to gamble). He had the worst insurance, Oxford(senior coverage). They only charge about $60 per month.
The surgery, to put a rod and 12 pins in, cost $69,000. Oxford only paid $13,000, leaving my family with a bill of $56,000. That was only the beginning. I didn't even get to the fun part.
We live in New York City, almost two hours away. Oxford refused to send my grandfather back to New York by ambulance. Had we wanted an ambulance to drive my grandfather back to a nursing home up here, it would have cost a minimum of $3,000. My dad had to drive him back himself. The people at Atlantic City Hospital gave my grandfather an oxygen machine for the ride home since he became borderline anemic from the surgery.
My dad wanted to file an appeal to Oxford on their decision to not pay for the ambulance ride. My mom and myself told my dad there was no way we'd win an appeal.

A taste of San Francisco history at Anchor Brewing
Updated 9:14 am, Monday, May 11, 2015
The heart — or rather, the anchor — of San Francisco's oldest brewery is the brewhouse.
Anchor Brewing Co. moved to 1705 Mariposa St. in Potrero Hill in the late '70s after outgrowing another space. It brewed its first beer, an Anchor Steam, on Mariposa on Aug. 13, 1979. The company's beer lineup still includes Anchor Steam, along with Liberty Ale, Anchor IPA, California Lager and about a dozen others.
Brewmaster Mark Carpenter says that when former owner Fritz Maytag started at the company, he met with several brewmasters whose offices were a short walk from their brewhouse.

- Whiplash on Wall Street Brandpoint
"And Fritz didn't like that," Carpenter said. "He wanted his brewhouse to be the center of the brewery, so that's what he did. He put the brewhouse here and built offices all around it."
From his office, Maytag could see brewing in full swing and enjoyed being in the brewhouse, said Carpenter.
The company conducts two tours a day, six days a week. It's fitting that those groups start and end their visits in a taproom, where they're given a taste of brew. (You have to be 21-plus and not on assignment to sample.) Anchor's offerings line the bar, while taps provide a taste.
Upstairs is a full floor of offices for accounting, marketing and sales workers, accessible via spiral staircase or regular stairs. Anchor Distilling, which sells spirits, also has offices up there.
The brewhouse is home to three enormous copper kettles. They were built in Germany in the 1950s, according to Carpenter, and moved here in 1977. "This is where it all starts," he said. Ground malt starts in the mash tun, where it's mashed in with warm water, heated to a certain temperature and transferred to the lauter tun. A hot sugary liquid, wort, collects there, until it is moved to a brew kettle.
Anchor Brewing uses only whole hops for its beers, instead of the pellets or extracts some other companies use. "It's simple and traditional," Carpenter said. "When we can, we try to do the most simple, traditional brewing methods."
The company uses a dry hop method for its Liberty Ale, where hops are put in a bag, much like a tea bag, and allowed to steep into the beer to add aroma.
For Anchor Steam, fermentation takes place in a long, shallow metal vat. Ales are fermented in much deeper refrigerated tanks. Anchor Steam beer goes through a second fermentation to make it crisper and cleaner, according to Carpenter. Ales skip that step.
The filtering process is very loud. In a room down a few flights of stairs, the beer goes through a centrifuge, then another filter, then through a heat exchanger for pasteurization. It's heated to 160 degrees, held for 30 seconds, then dropped back down to freezing.
Finished beer goes into bottles, cans or kegs. That's another noisy process, as each bottle and can is filled and sent clacking down a belt for inspection. Kegs are cleaned on the outside and inside before being filled.
Anchor Brewing is shipped throughout the U.S. and Europe. It was the smallest brewery in the country when Maytag bought it in 1965, according to Carpenter, though it's now 22nd in beer sales volume among an estimated 3,000 craft brewers.
"We're still a small brewery, still everything made right here in San Francisco," he said.

The Society of Chest Pain Centers is a non-profit international society dedicated to the belief that heart disease can be eliminated as the number one cause of death worldwide. Because time translates to muscle during a heart emergency, the Society bridges EMS, emergency medicine, cardiology, nursing and other professions jointly focused upon improving timely, quality care for cardiac patients. Crouse Hospital has received two important accreditations from the Society — making ours the first hospital in New York State with dual heart failure and chest pain accreditation.
Crouse Hospital has ed the highest possible accreditation for treatment of chest pain - Cycle III with PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention) - from the Accreditation Review Committee of the Society of Chest Pain Centers.
The Society's accreditation process insures centers meet or exceed quality-of-care measures in acute cardiac medicine. The Chest Pain Center at Crouse Hospital has demonstrated its expertise and commitment to quality patient care by meeting or exceeding a wide set of stringent criteria and completing an on-site evaluation by a review team from the Society of Chest Pain Centers.
What does this mean for you? That when you trust your heart to Crouse, you'll receive the area's most recognized chest pain care.
Crouse Hospital has received full Cycle I Heart Failure Accreditation status from the Society of Chest Pain Centers, the first hospital in New York State to achieve this designation and one of only 55 in the U.S. with the accreditation. About five million people in the U.S. have heart failure. In addition, heart failure patients are responsible for 12 to 15 million physician office visits per year and 6.5 million hospital days. This designation affirms that Crouse has taken exemplary steps in treating patients with congestive heart failure.
As part of its efforts to care for and treat heart failure patients, Crouse started the area's only Care Transitions program in 2007. The program provides congestive heart failure patients with a dedicated transition coach, a registered nurse who works with them in the hospital and during the transition home to give them the skills and confidence needed to self-manage once discharged from the hospital.
Crouse Hospital Echocardiography Lab has received the Intersocietal Commission for the Accreditation of Echocardiography Laboratories (ICAEL) Accreditation in Adult Transthoracic, Adult Transesophageal and Adult Stress. Crouse's laboratory is one of a growing number of echocardiography laboratories in the United States, Puerto Rico and Canada to be so recognized for its commitment to high quality patient care and its provision of quality diagnostic testing. Participation in the ICAEL accreditation process is voluntary and accreditation status signifies that the facility has been reviewed by an independent agency which recognizes the laboratory's commitment to quality testing for the diagnosis of heart disease.
Crouse Hospital has received the American Heart Association's Mission: Lifeline Silver Quality Achievement Award. The award recognizes Crouse's commitment and success in implementing specific quality improvement measures outlined by the American Heart Association (AHA) for the treatment of patients who suffer severe heart attacks.

PAUL HARDYMAN praised the character of the Pompey Academy side after they came from behind to thump MK Dons 4-1 at Furze Lane.
The under-18s recovered from an early setback to perfectly execute their high-pressure game plan.
Two goals from Bradley Tarbuck – the second a penalty – either side of Lewis Horsburgh and Ben Close efforts extended the Blues' unbeaten start to the Football League Youth Alliance south east conference season.
It was reward for the team for sticking to the plan put in place by Academy coach Hardyman and boss Andy Awford.
Hardyman said: 'We had a game plan that we had been working on in training.
'At the moment we are looking at the defensive side.
'We've been working through the thirds of the pitch and the boys are starting to understand their roles and responsibilities in that.
'That culminated in us pressing hard and denying MK Dons any time or any space on the ball.
'It worked extremely well.
'We went 1-0 down to a decent MK Dons side.
'But we didn't allow them to play as much as they are normally allowed to.
'We showed great character to come back.
'In all honesty we probably should've won by more.
'I said to the boys afterwards "it's not always about the result – it's about performances".
'Sometimes it's hard when you are winning a game at half-time to maintain that standard in the second half.'
It was the young Blues' bouncebackability, though, that impressed Hardyman most.
He said: 'It was an early goal to concede but the good thing about it was that the boys didn't panic.
'We've told them that sometimes you have to deal with adversity in games and it doesn't always go the way you want it to do.
'It's important to stay resilient and ensure you don't go and concede quickly again.
'Thankfully they didn't.
'We got back into the game quite quickly ourselves and then we'd scored two, three, four.
'All of those goals came relatively quickly and in a short passage of play for us.'
For Hardyman, it was a Saturday of double delight.
His under-16s side recorded an emphatic 10-1 victory over their MK Dons counterparts.
He said: 'The under-16s had a great result.
'It's a fantastic and thoroughly deserved win for them.
'Both the under-16s and under-18s are tootling along quite nicely at the moment.'
Pompey Academy will look to continue their unbeaten start to the season when they visit Luton Town this Saturday.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Gov. Sam Brownback says an impasse between the Kansas Legislature's top leaders on tax issues is normal as lawmakers near the end of their session.
The Republican governor predicted Wednesday that the GOP-dominated Legislature will come to an agreement on cutting income taxes and potentially canceling a scheduled decrease in the state's sales tax to stabilize the budget.
But Brownback told The Associated Press that reaching agreement on major issues is typically difficult when it comes time for leaders to sign off on a compromise. Lawmakers had hoped to finish their business this week.
Senate President Susan Wagle and House Speaker Ray Merrick have been having private talks with Brownback on tax issues. On Tuesday, they acknowledged they had an impasse.
But Brownback said, "This is normal."

I spent my summer teaching at the various Best Delegate Model UN Summer Programs and the experience provided several insightful lessons into contemporary Model UN. I'd like to share my biggest takeaways for individual delegates, for groups of delegates, and for the global Model UN community.
1. Individual Lesson: Confidence can be built
I knew confidence could be developed in people because I went through that process as a Model UN delegate myself; I started off as a shy delegate who'd visibly shake in front of an audience but eventually became confident enough to introduce Ban Ki-moon in front of 2,400 people in the General Assembly. What I wanted to learn was how to replicate that development process in a compacted schedule.
The Best Delegate Model UN Summer Programs had a strong emphasis on leadership development and we had the students get real with each other. Students went through exercises that helped them learn about their personal strengths and weaknesses as well as emotionally intense exercises that helped them develop a stronger sense of self and community. The result was that almost 100% of students reported an increase in confidence on their post-camp surveys.
2. Group Lesson: Model UN has a bullying problem
I had many opportunities to observe delegate behavior inside and outside of committee during the Summer Programs, and what all of our staff realized was that bullying is common across all of Model UN. Oftentimes, students are not cognizant that they are bullying others — sometimes this behavior is even encouraged when they see Power Delegates be rewarded for being a bully and in some situations the students are merely emulating the behavior of family and friends.
Our Summer Program addressed bullying with lessons on social dynamics, gender roles, the difference between Power Delegates and Best Delegates, through group feedback, and with individual feedback including some stern talks with delegates. Students are often taught skills and substance, but Model UN seems to be lacking in education on negative behaviors and styles. I personally think the issue of addressing bullying — a problem that delegates across all camps globally can relate to — will become a bigger crusade of mine as I become a better teacher of social dynamics and leadership in the future.
3. Global Lesson: Meta Learning through Rules of Procedure
We ran our Summer Programs using three different rules of procedure: North American procedure for all US-based camps, THIMUN procedure for most international camps, and United Nations procedure (newly rolled out by the UNDPI's UN4MUN initiative) at the WFUNA Youth Camp Korea. Now that I have had a chance to directly compare and contrast the different rules of procedure, I have realized that the rules affect meta learning — how students learn to what to learn in Model UN. In other words, the different rules of procedure that we grow up in teach us different definitions of success in Model UN.
For example:
- North American procedure is mostly a negotiation game through unmoderated and moderated caucuses until a group of sponsors reach a 51% vote.
- THIMUN procedure emphasizes debate on the quality of solutions as delegates spend most of their committee time amending resolutions until a 51% vote.
- United Nations procedure focuses on building consensus through Informal Meetings until one resolution can be adopted by all countries with 100% non-disagreement (voting is frequently not necessary when consensus has been reached).
We'll be presenting more about Meta Learning at the Qatar Leadership Conference. Practically, we'll also continue to provide training in the two dominant rules of procedure as well as the new UN rules of procedure for organizations and conferences that wish to simulate the UN accurately. I personally think that each procedure teaches different valuable skills and that the best delegates should experience each one for a well-rounded Model UN education.

Consumer confidence rebounded to 80.7 in January, its highest level since August of last year, according to the Conference Board. Confidence had rebounded in December as well to a downwardly revised figure of 77.5.
"Consumer confidence advanced in January for the second consecutive month," said Lynn Franco, director of economic indicators at The Conference Board. "Consumers' assessment of the present situation continues to improve, with both business conditions and the job market rated more favorably. Looking ahead six months, consumers expect the economy and their earnings to improve, but were somewhat mixed regarding the outlook for jobs. All in all, confidence appears to be back on track and rising expectations suggest the economy may pick up some momentum in the months ahead."
Specifically, the Present Situation Index increased to 79.1 from 75.3. More consumers assessed business conditions as "good," while fewer decried them as "bad." A similar shift in attitudes toward the availability of jobs was also recorded.
Meanwhile, the Expectations Index was up from 79.0 in December to 81.8 in January. Those expecting business conditions to improve over the next six months were virtually unchanged at 17.4%, but those expecting them to worsen decreased to 12.1% from 13.9%. Fewer consumers expected more jobs in the months ahead, but fewer expected a decrease in jobs availability as well. Those expecting their incomes to increase rose to 15.8% from 13.9%.
In the fall, the partial government shutdown had catalyzed a momentary dip in sentiment, but with confidence back in the 80s, the metric is hovering near pre-recession highs.

'Pastrami King' has an appetite for Texas politics
Is Marc Katz - the self-proclaimed Pastrami King of the Texas capital - crazy to run for lieutenant governor?
Published 9:06 pm, Sunday, September 13, 2009
AUSTIN - Is Marc Katz - the self-proclaimed Pastrami King of the Texas capital - crazy to run for lieutenant governor?
Colorful, bald and bespectacled, the Austin deli shop owner became famous locally and larger than life with television commercials punctuated by a boisterous "I can't help it, I gotta tell ya,'" followed by his restaurant's slogan: "Katz's never Kloses!"
Katz, 62, is telling Austin friends and fans he plans to run as a Democrat for lieutenant governor. But Katz's personal life has been the kind of shambles that gives Democratic leaders gas.
Katz lost a lawsuit against his son, Barry, over the operations of Houston restaurants now owned by Barry. He moved to Florida in the 1990s to overcome drug addiction. He ran for Austin mayor and lost. He filed for bankruptcy and survived only by selling his commercial real estate. And Katz hasn't voted in the Democratic primary in at least the past three elections.
Perhaps it's just another instance of keeping Austin weird. After all, this is the city that offered Texas satirist and songster Kinky Friedman and Carole Keeton "Grandma" Strayhorn as independent candidates in the 2006 governor's race.

Cowboy-costumed Friedman is running for governor again, this time as a Democrat. A Friedman-Katz ticket is possible.
But Katz said he is a serious man who wants to run a serious campaign to fix major problems in Texas.
Katz said he learned from Gov. Ann Richards' discussion of her alcoholism that voters will accept a candidate who's honest about his personal problems. He is proud of his recovery from narcotics.
"My mistakes are plenty, but my mistakes are public knowledge," Katz said. "Just from President Clinton alone, if he hadn't argued 'What do you mean by "is"?' it would have been a lot easier on him."
He is running for the post currently held by David Dewhurst, a Republican who announced last week he'll seek re-election. Katz said Dewhurst's leadership in the state Senate has been shaky and that problems in the state abound.
"I really believe we have money problems up to our kazoobie here. I really believe we're not handling education here," Katz said.
Katz moved to Austin from New York, he said, to get out of the restaurant business. He said that after a period of selling cars, he realized it wasn't the restaurant business that made him unhappy, it was New York.
He opened Katz's Deli & Bar in 1979, adding the "never Kloses" format in 1983.
Changing his tactics
Expanding the restaurant to Houston led to a dispute that resulted in Katz suing his son in 2001, but Barry won the lawsuit and a $945,000 judgment against his father. The domino effect was Katz filing for bankruptcy in 2005.
"My father and I have not spoken in years," Barry Katz said. "I wish him the best of luck with his campaign."
Marc Katz's personal problems are giving some Democrats pause because, so far, he is the only person in the party to express interest in running for lieutenant governor.
"I don't think he's a serious candidate," said former state Democratic Chairwoman Molly Beth Malcolm. "Filing deadline's not there yet. I'm hoping there's some other names."
Political consultant Glenn Smith said Katz is not the "ideal" candidate: "He's an affable guy who's got a good restaurant. But, as his mayoral bid demonstrated, he lacks a certain something on the stump."
Katz said his 2003 bid for Austin mayor failed because "I didn't know what I was doing."
Too much of that mayoral run, he said, was built around his restaurant persona. He said that would not be true in the race for lieutenant governor.
"My slogans and my logo and my jokes about pastrami are not appropriate for a race for lieutenant governor," Katz said. "I do run a business successfully. I do know about relations. I do know ups and downs. I have charisma. I love people. People love me. The issues that are important to me are the issues most important to the state right now."

I thought that maybe, there should a joke thread. Hence the name. You know, you should be able to come here after a day of school or work, to just sit back and relax. Enjoy a couple laughs at other posts, and move on. If you want to, you can leave a joke. Any kind of joke! I guess I'll start it off: Yo momma so fat, that she sits next to everybody in the movie theater. I'm going to experiment with the next one: Yo daddy so gay, that when I told him, he hit hit me with his purse.

A Sochi Olympic volunteer has unwittingly found herself being hounded by Reddit users after her image appeared on Associated Press.
So impressed were reddit users with the nubile female sunning against a banner board some of them took to posting her image on various reddit boards and imagining what it might be like to be with her. Many though were imagining what it would be like to masturbate to the Russian teenager.
But it did not stop there. That would have been too easy. By now various users were curious to find out more about whom they were jerking off to. Which in turn led to some nifty research on behalf of some users who would then go on without the young woman's permission to release her name (I will not), the town from where she came from as well as any other images of her they could glean from social media sites that she was associated with.
Told the original caption that came underneath the photo of the youth:
A volunteer enjoys the warming sun as temperatures went over the freezing point beside a writing reading 'Sochi 2014 – Hot. Cool.Yours' prior to the women's 10K classical-style cross-country race at the 2014 Winter Olympics, Thursday, Feb. 13, 2014, in Krasnaya Polyana, Russia. (AP Photo/Gregorio Borgia)
By now reddit users had taken to accumulating a dossier of images of the young woman (who may be underage) on various subreddits, including one subreddit titled randomsexiness which one could possibly argue exists for the sheer purpose of the objectification of women.
via the dailydot: The Internet's well-oiled machine for doxing people—tracking down and publishing personal information—went to work. Users found the volunteer's social media accounts and scoured them for more sexy photos of the woman in question.
The Imgur gallery contains two dozen pics, along with her real name. And the comments—many heavily downvoted, thank God—go something like this:
Yet what this young woman was by proxy receiving was a gang bang from a flotilla of hungry horny men, each feeding off each other's lust. All that mattered was where could they get more of her and who exactly was she and where could one see her in close up action. Which perhaps might be fine when you are a celebrity or a porn star but somewhat disorienting and imposing when you are a private citizen whose private details are strewn across the web for nothing more than being indiscriminately photographed during a private moment.
Reflects the dailydot once again: This is a site where sexualized images of women and underage girls arespread freely, without the subjects' consent—and with Reddit admins' knowledge.
What do you think? Have we crossed the line of proprietary or is this just how the brave new world operates courtesy of an indiscriminate web?

For the Gull Grid Parallel Wire Roof Protection System.
Alternative to installing a roof net.
Use the same mounts and perimeter straining wire / fixings as for a bird control net installation, but then fit a series of parallel wires using this 1.2mm Orange Wire Rope
Our Seagull Netting Fixing Kits are ideal fro installing the perimeter wire for the Gull Grid Parallel Wire System
The orange PVC coating provides extra visibility to gulls and increases the overall diameter to 1.5mm
Run parallel wires across the roof at 400mm centres and secure to perimeter wire rope with 2.5mm Copper Ferrules.
During perimeter wire rope installation slide enough Ferrules on to the perimeter straining wire before terminating and tensioning. However if you run short of ferrules then use Wire Rope Grips.
Allows maintenance staff to walk between or over the wires as it is installed lower, reducing the visual impact.
Parallel wires do not need to be tensioned and should ideally sag slightly to move in the wind for extra deterrence.
