Take the next step
Definitely worth the drive!
" A couple of months ago, I decided that it was time to replace my 17 year old van with something more modern. After researching my options, I decided that I would like to find a lightly used Ford Transit Connect to be my last car. Day's Rockmart had the perfect vehicle! I talked to Matt Hicks and he held this car for me for eight days while I waited for the withdrawal from my retirement account! Rockmart is about two hours from my home in Northwest Georgia, and it was definitely worth the trip. "

text: To craft Roth Kase's line of luscious blues, they start with Wisconsin's renowned natural resource: local family farms producing the highest-quality milk from Jersey and Holstein cows. This milk, higher in butterfat than most and with a character that changes from season to season, is transformed into delicate curds by our cheesemakers. They hoop the curds by hand into traditional round forms, then pierce, salt, and carefully cure each wheel of Moody Blue for four months or more to allow a lacey network of natural blue veining to develop. It takes time and effort to handcraft Moody Blue, but the result is well worth the effort: a classic blue cheese, deliciously creamy and tangy with a smoky, haunting finish.

I have been trying to make some room in my freezer lately and in doing so I have been coming across all sorts of interesting things that I had forgotten about. Most recently I found some panang curry paste which is essentially a red curry paste with peanuts in it. The first thing that I think of when I think of the panang curry paste is always the spicy peanut sauce which I think I may be addicted to. With the warm weather that we have been having the last few days I was thinking about summery food and I figured that the easiest way that I could get my spicy peanut sauce fix was to make a simple chicken satay and serve it with the dipping sauce. I am a huge fan of skewered grilled meat and this chicken satay is no exception! It is super simple to make, only needing a bit of marinating time and then you just throw it on the grill. The chicken came out nice and tender and light and fresh and it was packed full of flavour! Now I am looking forward to grilling season even more. Time to go see what else I can find in my freezer.
Chicken Satay with Spicy Peanut Dipping Sauce
- 2 teaspoons coriander seeds (toasted and ground)
- 2 teaspoons cumin seeds (toasted and ground)
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric (ground)
- 2 stalks lemongrass (peeled & chopped)
- 1 shallot (diced)
- 1 tablespoon garlic (grated)
- 1 tablespoon galangal (or ginger, grated)
- 1 birds eye chili (sliced)
- 1 lime (juice and zest)
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 pound chicken (cut into thin strips)
- * wooden skewers (soaked in cold water for 30 minutes)
- 1/4 cup peanut sauce
- Mix the coriander, cumin, turmeric, lemongrass, shallot, garlic, galangal, chili, lime, fish sauce sugar and oil.
- Marinate the chicken in the marinade in the fridge for 1 hour to over night.
- Skewer the chicken and grill it until cooked and slightly charred, about 3-5 minutes per side.
- Serve with peanut dipping sauce.

At the farmers market yesterday, I picked up some smoked fish – cold smoked and hot smoked wild tuna – from Nantucket Wild Gourmet. I had bought some of their sable and bluefish in the past at Copley and was excited to see them just a few blocks from my home (plus, their products are certified kosher – VHK – and hahal).
I dove right in to the hot-smoked chunk, cutting it up into slices to try …
… when my cat, Prescott Winslow III, hopped onto the counter to grab his own piece, gobbling it quickly on the floor and running to hide because he knew he had been very very naughty. I later found him sitting calmly on my bed as if he had done nothing wrong.
My tasting notes: the hot-smoked tuna is a bit dry and, as cliche as it sounds, looks and tastes like chicken. It would benefit from a little dressing (read on…), and the cold-smoked fishes (I've tried tuna and sable) retain more oil. PWIII's tasting notes (based on his fierce meowing and tail wagging): "worth risking life and limb to jump on the counter for … definitely better than the tuna juice ima/maman (PWIII speaks Hebrew and French) sometimes gives me … infinitely better than my regular dry food."
Salade Composée Niçoise-esque
Still reveling in yesterday's local bounty, I made a salade composée inspired by a salade niçoise. Using 2 handfuls of pea shoots/tendrils to stand in for the haricots verts, 8-10 red and yellow cherry tomatoes quartered, 2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped, and the hot-smoked wild tuna (2-3 oz), I placed all the ingredients as aftfuly as possible.
Lightly dress with a dijon vinaigrette (this makes double the amount necessary): shake in a jar 1.5 t moutard à l'ancienne (whole grain mustard – you can see the large mustard seeds), 1 T white wine vinegar, 2 T extra virgin olive oil, 2 pinches kosher salt, 1 pinch white pepper. Drizzle over the salad.

Check out the Ring Sizing Guide to find your ring size.
All weights pertaining to gemstones, including diamonds, are minimum weights. Additionally, please note that many gemstones are treated to enhance their beauty. View Gemstone Enhancements and Special Care Requirements for important information.
Sterling silver, also called fine silver, is a beautifully lustrous cool-toned precious metal favored in fine jewelry among other products. The most reflective of all metals (excluding mercury), sterling silver looks stunning by itself and brings out the best hues in an array of colorful gemstones.
Sterling silver can be polished to a higher sheen than platinum. In fact, Ag, the chemical symbol for silver, comes from a word that means "white and shining." The surface of silver can boast that shiny, polished appearance, or can be brushed, satin, matte, sandblasted, antiqued or oxidized (chemically blackened).
In order to be called sterling silver, a metal must be made up of a minimum of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% alloy (meaning other metals), including but not limited to copper and nickel. The alloy is added to pure silver to make the metal more durable, tougher and harder. Sterling silver is designated a fineness of "925." Pieces with sterling silver may be marked "sterling."
Finishes on Sterling Silver
Finishing, or plating, is a common treatment with sterling silver. Popular types of plating are rhodium plating, gold plating and anti-tarnish plating. Plating is used to extend the life and sheen of the jewelry. After sizing or buffing a piece of jewelry with a machine, it must be re-plated to restore the finish.
Caring for Sterling Silver
Sterling silver becomes tarnished as the result of a natural chemical process that occurs when sterling silver is exposed to chemicals in the air, rubber, wool and latex. Humidity also plays a role in accelerating tarnishing. It's easy to keep your sterling silver sparkling, though, by taking a few steps to prevent tarnish and other wear and tear.
A symbol of strength and intelligence, topaz derives its name from Topazios, an island in the Red Sea that is known today as Zabargad. The Greek word "topazios" means "to seek," since the island was covered with a thick fog and difficult to find. Gemstones found on the island were called topaz, although the stones were eventually found to actually be peridot. The real gem of topaz is found throughout the world, with different occurrences producing specific colors.
Brown, yellow, orange and red topaz are found in Brazil, Sri Lanka and Siberia. Most brownish topaz is heated to produce a permanent and glamorous pink color. Following the discovery of pink topaz in Russia during the 19th century, Imperial topaz was found. Featuring a sherry red, deep pink or reddish-orange color, the gem was so coveted that its ownership was restricted to the Czar, his family and those who received it as a royal gift. Today, Imperial shades are the most rare and, therefore, the most valuable.
Blue topaz is rarely found in nature and is most often created through a combination of heat treatment and irradiation. It is found in Brazil, Sri Lanka, Nigeria and China. Topaz is often colorless, too, and can be found in the United States, Mexico, Russia and Pakistan. In 1998, a new type of enhanced topaz made its appearance with a greenish-blue or emerald green color. All colors of topaz rank an 8.0 on the Mohs Scale of hardness.
Yellow topaz is November's birthstone and blue topaz is December's birthstone. Blue topaz is also the traditional gift for 4th and 19th wedding anniversaries, while Imperial topaz is celebrated as a 23rd anniversary gift. Perhaps the most famous topaz is a large, colorless stone known as the Braganza. It was discovered in Brazil in 1740 and was originally thought to be a priceless diamond. Today, the giant 1,680.00ct stone is set in the Portuguese Crown.
Paraiba color topaz is vibrant greenish blue designed to resemble the rare Paraiba tourmaline gemstone from Brazil. Typically, a blue or colorless topaz is heat treated to create the intense and desirable Paraiba color. White (or colorless) topaz is a budget-friendly alternative to diamonds.
The mystery and allure of topaz goes back thousands of years. To the ancients, it was a symbol of love and affection and was thought to ward off sudden death. The Romans associated topaz with Jupiter, the god of the sun. The Greeks called it the Stone of Strength, believing it had the power to increase strength and make its wearer invisible in times of emergency. The Egyptians said the gem was colored with the golden glow of the sun god, Ra, making topaz a powerful amulet that protected its wearer against harm.
Topaz' mystical curative powers were believed to wax and wane with the phases of the moon. The gem was said to change color in the presence of poisoned food or drink and falcons were carved on the stones to help earn the goodwill of kings and magnates.
Today, topaz is said to be the gem that has the widest range of curative powers. It is believed to dispel enchantment and protect against negative emotions such as anger, fear, greed and envy. Its properties are supposedly enhanced when the gem is mounted in gold. Because of this association with gold, topaz is used to bring or enhance the wearer's money-gathering abilities and has long been used in money and wealth rituals.
Wearing topaz is said to improve and deepen relationships, promote patience, ensure fidelity and enhance the ability to love. The gem is also believed to bring friendship, intelligence, long life, beauty and a pleasant disposition.

First off, isn't "Porn for Women" really old? Yes. It is. It was published on April 5th, 2007. That may not seem so old now (except actually it's almost 3 years ago so really it does), but put it this way: when this book came out, the xkcd had only 224 comics. I don't know why Randall has suddenly found reason to be offended by this book now, I guess he just heard of it for the first time? Well, ok. No reason you can't protest after the fact, right, sort of a theoretical kind of thing. Just makes it hard to sympathize with the outraged characters, you know, because it's like, well there's dozens of these books now, why are you only just finding out about it?
Here's the problem I have with so much of this "getting offended by things." This book series, it is a joke. Ok, it plays off a stereotype, I guess. The stereotype is....men don't like doing housework and so women like to see men to housework. This stereotype - which is, as you know, currently tearing the fabric of our nation to shreds - is terrible. So anything that plays into it - a certain book, you see - is a terrible sexist monster that has to be mocked forever. Randall's female persona in the comic is striking a blow for women's equality everywhere by pointing out that she too enjoys actual pornography - a product not usually associated with treating women particularly well, or as people rather than objects. Somehow this is supposed to help the feminist cause.
I know there are some people out there who think that this comic is supposed to make the girl in it look dumb, because she doesn't understand that the book is a joke. The excuses are nice, but the fact is that clearly Randall Munroe doesn't understand that the book is a joke. Apparently the word "porn" can ONLY mean actual pornography. Apparently some people do not realize that there are phrases like "torture porn" which use the word as a metaphor. No one is pretending or arguing that Porn for Women is actual pornography; there are legal definitions for that and we know that they are not met. Does the book exaggerate for comic effect? Yes. But so what? How is that such a terrible thing?
I'm not going to go so far as to say that Randall made this comic to try to impress so called progressive women (that is what I have Rob for). But I do think that this fits into a pattern of "comics which portray the artist as highly sympathetic to women," the most obvious other example being the fact that we have seen like 18 guy-on-girl oral sexes but 0 girl-on-guy (and no gay ones! get offended by that, guys!). What does that mean? I do not want to speculate.
oh of course I want to speculate! This comic is designed to make women who think they are intelligent like Randall, because he is portraying himself as a woman who is offended by all the "right" things. The glorious irony is, that by setting himself up as a heroic defender of women's rights he is basically doing exactly what the guys do in....Porn for Women.
GUYS! Perhaps you know this already but: there is a new Perry Bible Fellowship comic! Well- there is basically a new Perry Bible Fellowship comic. Nick Gurewitch made a very PBFlike comic for some new comic book about superheroes or something. Anyway, here it is. I don't find it all that funny, but like the best PBFs, I love looking at it just the same - the art is just so great, the faces so expressive. The colors and art style just feels like an old movie in the best way.
The associated interview is well worth a read - good stuff about pacing that lesser writers could stand to study. Also, I know little to nothing about superheroes, but even I can tell that the Galactacus/Magneto idea for a comic at the end of the interview is awesome. so stop reading this and start reading that!

The sad thing is, if Porn for Women wasn't a comedy but something serious (presumably evoking firefighter's calendars, but with more vacuum cleaners and feather dusters), it would have actually been funny.ReplyDelete

Today's comic is a graph joke, but the alt text is actually funny, though poorly written. Basically, it's funny if you like graph jokes.ReplyDelete
Actually, today's comic isn't a graph joke--it's just a series of graphs. At best, it's a series of graphs with mildly amusing content. It's not even close to a graph joke, which would I suppose be using graphs to tell a joke, or perhaps a joke about graphs, or some such thing.ReplyDelete
Do we have a category for "Randall reports the results of his cursory 'amusing' Google searches"?
- AnonymousMarch 16, 2010 at 10:40 PM
I think you're overreacting about the whole "protecting women" thing. I think he was just trying to point out how ridiculous the thing is.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousMarch 16, 2010 at 11:06 PM
but everyone should know its ridiculous because ITS A FUCKING JOKE BOOK.ReplyDelete
So him reacting seriously to it is dumb.
Also new "comic" is not a comic. It's just a bunch of graphs that contain mundane search results. Hilarious.

If three years seems "really old" to you then you have to be a lot younger than even I expected. I was betting on 22. So you're ...what?...16?ReplyDelete
Wait until you get to be 30. Three years will hardly be noticed but be sure to never ever read a book that was published a couple of years prior. No! You will only read books in the same year as they are published or not at all, eh?

Randall played his cards well, though. The xkcd forums were (and still are) locked in a flame war over gender equality, traditional gender roles, and, of course, male rape because half the xkcd audience are bitter boys who shun women for not liking them and the other half are randall-esque white knights who pander non-stop to women in an attempt to, if you will, FUCK ONE of them.

I'm not saying that this comic isn't stupid--'cause it is--or that it it's funny--'cause it isn't--and I'm not saying that Randall is actually doing anything helpful about it--'cause he isn't--and I'm not saying that the "Porn for Women" book(s) are horrible--because I basically have little to no idea what they actually are or what their intent is--but the sorts of stereotypes you casually shrug off aren't just benign little things that don't deserve scorn. They actively mess up the childhood and development of a lot of kids, and that's not cool--no matter what XKCD has to say on the subject.

You realise the fact that Porn for Women is a joke has no baring on the fact it perpetuates sexist stereotypes...? It has no baring on whether you can criticise it for employing and perpetuating those stereotypes... Considering that it doesn't have a baring on those things... the assertion that Randall doesn't realise that Porn for Women is supposed to be funny is pretty baseless.ReplyDelete
I am really disappointed in you guys for this one. I identified the possibility that xkcdsucks could really be stupid when it comes to this one but I thought it would be alright because you guys are pretty smart. Unfortunately it seems I turned out poorly.
I'm not sure if that is because of genuine feelings or because of the impetus to tear down the comic. In either case it isn't pretty.
It is making fun of those stereotypes. Not making fun of women via those stereotypes and then saying "but it's ok it's humour."ReplyDelete
Now, to illustrate the difference, let me replace "joke" with "serious deadpan remark". One is "racists suck". The other is "black people suck." One of those things should probably not be offensive.
And hey, even if you don't think it's equivocal at all, I can still say that, if you recognize the first distinction I made, then you have to admit Randall's effectively taking a similar stance that is at least equally offensive.
Basically the audience is not expected to think that this would be a womans primary fantasy and is supposed to laugh at the absurd idea that would it be.ReplyDelete
So you're stupid, is what I am saying.

I disagree. It DOES have baring on these "facts." If I say, in a way clearly meant as sarcastic, "yeah, all women are idiots" then it clearly means that I *don'* believe that all women are idiots. If someone were to come back and seriously say "but all women are not idiots" I would probably call them an idiot.
So the question is... is it obvious that "Porn For Women" is a joke? It would appear that it is, which makes Randall's outrage ridiculous.
- lesterroquefortMarch 17, 2010 at 4:08 AM
The fact that Randall doesn't seem to realize that it's a joke does have relevance. If you read the comic, it's framed as a letter to the writers of the book, when the writers of the book obviously know that women would like to see sex in their pornography. Also, nobody in the world legitimately believes that the average woman would actually masturbate to men doing mundane household chores, which is the joke of the book. That makes this a completely pointless comic, and outside of stating what everybody knows, it doesn't make a point about perpetuating stereotypes, and it doesn't say anything to somebody buying the book, like, hey, if you buy this book, even though it's a joke, you're perpetuating gender stereotypes, and that's bad for everybody.ReplyDelete
It fails at making a point and it fails at humor, too, because the last line, the deadpan "People fuck," would only be humorous if the intended recipient of the letter, or the people buying the books, seriously believed that women would not like to see fucking in their porn. Don't get me wrong, I'm pretty sure Randall does get that Porn For Women is a joke, because you'd have to be really thick not to, but the way he wrote this comic is terrible and doesn't get that across. I kind of get what he was going for, but it was just written, set up, and drawn too terribly for it to make sense or get any point across.
Of note: a feminist blog and its readers on this comic.
"Porn for Women". I love the scent of satire in the morning. The Cambridge Women's Pornography Cooperative's pink and precious stuff may not be good satire, but satire it is. Sort of like Objective Ministries.ReplyDelete
Ah! Forgot to add that XKCD is more often than not insufferable, and this recent comic is an outstanding example of why. I'm not convinced that Munroe "got" the joke.

You could argue that Porn For Women is harmful because it does reinforce stereotypes, even if it does so with irony (similar to complaints about Sarah Silverman/Jimmy Carr/whoever). It's not something I'd argue, but I wouldn't argue against it either. Besides, clearly there are people who don't get the joke.ReplyDelete
However, the "in my porn, people fuck" line just makes me think "...and?". It feels like I'm supposed to punch the air in celebration because a man agreed with something I've been doing for years.
And that makes the comic fucking hilarious, because how sexist is that?
(I think Randall avoids male oral sex in general because they are stick figures. It's easy to draw a man's head between a woman's legs and imply sex. Not so easy to show penii or the lack on a stick figure.)
I wish the graphs weren't so messy. I know, it's his style, but it doesn't help when I'm trying to interpret some of these.
The bra size graph makes sense because those with E and A cup sizes are more likely to be expressing frustration about how they can't find the right size bra, or the hassles they have (backaches and pain in the arse men). This leads to other discussions about larger/smaller bra size, particularly with blogs. Whereas C-cup is the most common bra sizing, so people talk about it less.
(I'm sure Randall thinks it's akin to men lying about their penis size, though, otherwise he wouldn't have thought of it or positioned it opposite to the penis size one.)

Did somebody actually try to reproduce the numbers of the new comic?ReplyDelete
I tried "I have a 10 inch penis" (with quotes), which had more hits than "I have a 9 inch penis".
So I think he just makes up those numbers. Or he forgot to add quotes, making them completely useless.
If that is a feminist blog then it is apparently a really shitty one. I realize there's a lot of different flavors of feminism out there, but I can't see many of them thinking porn is awesome, because it promotes viewing women as objects instead of people. And I am pretty sure most feminists are against women being viewed as objects. Something about females being treated like property rather than human beings throughout history, man I don't know I think I saw it in a book once.ReplyDelete
And apparently the commentors on that site are just as dumb as Randall himself and most of the forumers because they apparently don't get it's a joke too? Or some of them get the joke but say that it perpetuates stereotypes or some nonsense.
I look forward to their ranting and raving against Looney Toons for perpetuating the belief that holding a stick of dynamite will not blow a person to pieces but will, in fact, simply turn their face and hair black, or that being shot repeatedly with a firearm will cause no harm except when you drink water and it pours out of the holes like a sprinkler. Those cartoons are brainwashing and destroying our children! Won't someone PLEASE think of the children?!
EDIT: Because I caught anon's post above mine when I previewed...
You could argue that Porn For Women is harmful because it does reinforce stereotypes, even if it does so with irony (similar to complaints about Sarah Silverman/Jimmy Carr/whoever).
I would only argue that if I thought that the book series reinforced harmful stereotypes. Basically this is on a different level than say, "Black people like fried chicken and watermelon" or "Jews are really tight with money" jokes.
If anything, the book is a kind of subtle criticism of men more than a portrayal of female stereotypes. The book is saying "Women like to fantasize about men doing housework, because men don't really do housework that often and women wish they would actually help around the house like they should be doing."
Calling it "Porn for Women" is just a joke title, it'd be like releasing a book of circuit diagrams and calling it "Porn for Electrical Engineers" or something. Nobody is honestly going to look at these books and think that women or electrical engineers masturbate to these things, unless they're a complete moron (lesterroquefort made the same observation earlier).

Now, on today's comic... huh, look, those are graphs. And they have silly veiled jokes in them. Now, for a little bit of rage, today's topic is: how shoddy can Randall be with his graphs?
Because this ones are SHODDY.
I mean, just look at them quickly. The letters are poorly drawn and there is no such thing as straight line in any of them. And now, for something extra "silly", Randall shows again he doesn't know how to make graphs properly, and only do them because it's "cute and funny".
Look at the last. Look at the 147 point. Trace a straigh line down. Now, answer me: is there any good reason why that point, which represents the number of occurrences of "My IQ is 147", is TO THE RIGHT of the 150 point? 147 is smaller than 150, it doesn't make sense!

It's one thing to constantly feature cunnilingus because it's easier to draw; it's another to register http://cu.nniling.us/
@Anon 5:50 AM:
Randall is really shoddy with his graphs, as Professional Mole said. For example:
"I have a nine inch penis" has 21,500 results.
"I have a 9 inch penis" has 178,000 results.
"I have a ten inch penis" has 31,300 results.
"I have a 10 inch penis" has 136,000 results.
I think Randall used the numeral for some and actually typed out the words for others, although I'm not sure. He should've stuck with Google searches without numbers because of this little area-for-interpretation thingy.
But then Randall is just plain wrong:
"There are 4 lights" - 20,900
"There are four lights" - 2,200,000
According to the graph, "There are lights" were x=4, there are about one million results. (It's around about a million. (Definitely not two million and definitely not 21,000.)
Randall just plain fucked up.
and if the Cambridge Women's Pornography Cooperative doesn't sound like an anarcha-feminist collective, i don't know what does.
I feel sort of bad for Mr. Munroe, now. I'm sure he wrote this comic all, "Stickin' up for the ladies! All right!" but really, WE WOMEN DON'T NEED MUNROE TO STICK UP FOR US! WE BE DOIN IT OURSELVES.ReplyDelete
but I can't see many of them thinking porn is awesome, because it promotes viewing women as objects instead of people.
Well, there are all types of porn, no? I mean, gay male porn clearly doesn't promote viewing women as objects. I think most modern feminists realize that (a) sex is sexy, (b) most porn is really exploitative, (c) some porn isn't.

Google gives different numbers of results for different people? I didn't know that; I knew the order of the results changed sometimes.ReplyDelete
Anyway, anon with a grudge against sex dice, please explain what I'm doing wrong with the b/c/d cup search. Without quotes, I get B=381K/C=638K/D=27.8M (with lots of irrelevant results), with quotes I get 13K/8K/2.6K, neither of which matches the trough Randy's got for C cups.
For the 99 problems graph, I get 0 results (using quotes) for 93 problems, 1 for 92 and 3 for 94. Where does Randy's minor peak at 93 come from?
Also, for somebody who blogs about science and math his graphs are inexcusably sloppy. Why does the trend line run through the outlying 8 glasses of water? If there's some justification for that, then why isn't the outlying 18 year old without a boyfriend/9 inch penis included in the trend line. Labeling on the # boyfriends/girlfriends graph sucks ass. The line that appears to be boyfriends on the left side of the graph turns into girlfriends on the right side of the graph. I'm pretty darn skeptical about the trend line on the IQ graph; probably he pulled it out of his ass. And a minor quibble, searching for "I'm in junior grade" only gets 3 results. I realize he probably searched for "I'm a junior", but he could've made it clearer.
Basically, he's done plenty of google results comics before; the idea is tired, his graphs are embarassingly sloppy for anybody who is into science/math, and the numbers shown aren't even the true number of results Google gives. This is a strong contender for worst xkcd ever.

Yeah, these are some terribly-drawn graphs. What's especially bad is, as somebody else pointed out, the 147 being pretty far away from where it should be on the final graph. Normally, that would be a small detail, but the fact is that when there are only a few points on the graph that are labeled, they should be labeled correctly. And actually, taking a closer look, 100, 133, and 142 are also pretty far off as well, although 147 is the only one that isn't between its two closest tens (140 and 150), being more at the 152 position.ReplyDelete

Anon 2:45 and 2:57 pretty much summed it up for me. As I said, it's more making fun of the fact that men don't help out their wives much rather than "Women only think about housework." In fact, there's another one of those books I hear called "Porn for Brides" with pictures of a guy helping out with wedding planning, making invitations, and so on. Again, the joke is "Men are really lazy and don't help plan weddings." Unless you're insinuating all married women's lives revolve around their wedding? That would be a bit silly.
@ Sarah
I mean, gay male porn clearly doesn't promote viewing women as objects. I think most modern feminists realize that (a) sex is sexy, (b) most porn is really exploitative, (c) some porn isn't.
Well again, it depends on the specific type of feminism, there's a lot of them out there. I've been to one extremely militant feminist blog that said things like every time a woman has sex, even if it's consensual, it's subjugation of women and therefore wrong. Obviously they'd rage against porn, but like I said, they're the extreme.
I think someone actually asked them specifically about gay porn and if it was okay since there were no women. I can't remember the response the blogger gave though.
Either way, outside of gay porn, I think you'd be hard-pressed to argue that there's porn out there that doesn't objectify women. I mean, that is kind of the point of porn, to reduce people to wanking material.

Also if you told off a Jew for making a stingy-Jew joke I'd think you were a jerk and should lighten up. Similarly for the fried chicken thing, although that's the first I've heard of that stereotype, so can't really comment.
Also, anonything, use a name.

One observation I haven't seen come up yet (which means it's either just me or it's so trivial compared to the other flaws that no one else bothered) is that the comic doesn't come across as having a female voice. If you showed me the punchline or alt-text without context and ask me to guess whether it was written by a man or a woman, I would pick a man without hesitation. Just one more way this comic fails to deliver its message, I guess.
perhaps it is because Randall is a lousy writer. That said, I'd be curious whether, given jus the text of this, someone thought it was written by a man or woman. Of course it is said by a female character (this is clear from the words themselves) but not a female author. I wonder.ReplyDelete
This one week I got extremely bored and joined a dating site with various accounts in different locations and of different genders, and then varied my attempts (or lack thereof) to emulate the styles of speech. Or text, I suppose.ReplyDelete
One guy noticed that a supposed English chick was American (which he wasn't supposed to - also, Canadian, asshole), but failed that she was a he (which he was supposed to). Maybe I'm just really, really bad at sounding like a Brit, but he continued to believe I was being facetious when I said something to the effect of "nah, what you're really noticing is that I'm a dude. You see, men and women have slight differences in their speech centers etc etc."
And all of this leaves me with one question - if you're still reading this comment, why?
- AnonymousMarch 18, 2010 at 12:26 PM
As horrible as it is, that zero statistic you state should be a one. I'ven't the time to go and correct you on 18, which you at least admit to be an estimate
'also, Canadian, asshole'ReplyDelete
To be fair, if you've not lived west of the Atlantic, all North American types sound more or less the same. I've lived in Canada for a year and I still can't always distinguish Canucks from Yanks (except the Quebecois and Arcadians, obviously).
'if you're still reading this comment, why?'
Good question. Boredom and displacement activity!
Verbally I can't tell the difference, but in text I figure we're at least somewhere in between the US and England.ReplyDelete
Speaking for Canadian accents, it varies more than just Quebecois, Acadian, Rest of Canada. Ontario is the home of "Aboot," for instance.ReplyDelete
Hell, even here within Alberta there's variance. Edmontonians pronounce Calgary "Kal-gree," while Calgarians pronounce it "Cal-Gary."
Text-wise, we are between US and British spellings, with a closer bent to Brit. How do I know this? I'm an editor, biznitches!
I live in Ontario and have heard "aboot" zero times in my life, outside of jokes and stuff.ReplyDelete
Spelling-wise, there's a difference, altho the Queen's English is being pulled increasingly towards Yanqui perversions ("anathematize" rather than "anathematise", "sulfur" rather than "sulphur"). But it's more the use and choice of words - hard to define (except for obvious things, like use of fag, trunk, &c), but whenever I read British rather than north american blogs I notice the difference immediately. The difference is less once you compare journalists and academics, though.ReplyDelete
Also, "aboot" comes from Scotland! And I hear it from Newfies all the time. My point about Quebecois & Arcadian was that the francophones are very obviously Not Americans. After that, one starts noticing the smaller differences, like anglophone Canadians vs. Americans, or the Scottish tinge that marks out Newfoundlanders.

Updated 2016
The biggest thing about San Marino is its history. San Marino is the world's oldest surviving republic, even if it is only half the size of Liechtenstein. The third smallest state in the world behind Holy See and Monaco, San Marino is an autonomous continuation of Italian life and culture. Because it is its own sovereign state however, it is packed with tourists on their trips around Italy.
What to do
The main city is the most beautiful part of the country, the rest of San Marino is a more industrial, tiny version of the central city, also called San Marino, located on top of a mountain. Tour the three towers depicted on the flag, or just walk around the streets of San Marino. You'll be treated to views and welcome surprises as you walk around the tiny, cramped walking streets.
Getting there
You can't fly to San Marino because there aren't any airports, so you'll have to find a flight to Italy before you can tour San Marino. There also aren't any train stations or bus lines running into San Marino so rent a car if you're sure you want to come into this tiny tourist attraction of a country. The border with Italy is completely open, so there's no need for a border control or any sort of visa or trip permit.
Where to stay
There are hotels in San Marino but the selection is limited because of the city's small size. You'll have better luck going to one of the surrounding villages or towns in Italy and looking up a hostel or hotel there. Check out the Italy travel logue for more advice on visiting San Marino.

Application release automation company XebiaLabs has announced version 3.8 of Deployit with new automated resource discovery features, an on-demand "Anytime Rollback" feature, and a new public REST API.
Another player in the growing DevOps market, XebiaLabs CEO Coert Baart claims that the general flow of trends in the release automation space have brought the market to him.
Those DevOps trends are:
- Continuous delivery
- DevOps
- Virtualization
- Agile
- Compliance
- High availability
"Deployit offers complete visibility and flexibility so organizations can monitor, measure, and manage the application release process every step of the way," said Baart.
Deployit 3.8 tracks changes made to target systems at each step of the application deployment processes. Its makers say that this allows it to automatically prepare a compensating "undo" plan where and whenever a failure occurs. There is no scripting or manual configuration required and this, claims the firm, effectively cuts the configuration time and effort in half.
"In today's enterprise, being able to automatically and correctly deploy the many, fast-changing components required of a modern web-based multitier application is critical to the business," said Gartner VP Ronni J. Colville. "A solution that enables the Dev and Ops teams to collaborate and communicate more effectively is key to enabling DevOps and error-free application deployments."
Significant new features and capabilities of the new Deployit 3.8 include simplified setup: extended discovery of WebSphere resources and artifacts in existing environments; improved Windows support: to enable authentication using Windows domain users over WinRM using Kerberos; and additional automation APIs: to integrate Deployit in a user's environment using the new public REST API alongside CLI and other integration plugins.

Whether as an indoor or as an outdoor feature, you can be sure to relax while at the same time enjoy and have some fun all year round. Whether you love to relax during summer or the winter, it is always a moment to explore. Spice things up with added features to complement your spa area.
Vanishing Edge
A vanishing edge pool which is also referred to as an infinity, edge, zero edge, as well as disappearing edge serves as both a functional as well as a decorative piece of art. It leaves a visual effect that is similar to that of water disappearing to the horizon. With a little outdoor lighting, the view stands out. It is ideal for homes as well as business premises.
With water flowing over one or more edges, you may choose from a manmade structure or choose to go natural. Individuals who live close to oceans or other water bodies, can have their infinity pool merge with the water body. Alternatively, there is the choice to create an illusion where the water seems to reflect sky leaving a continuous effect.
Grotto / Caves
Grottos or caves are an outstanding feature that complements water bodies. As luxury pool builders, we have build our experience in building such added water features. Such features are diverse and depending on personal needs and preferences, we can customize and personalize swimming pool features.

Water Falls
Luxury pool builders in Riceboro, GA, understand that delivering on job satisfaction is important. While a swimming pool is the key feature, the addition of adds features turns up its overall appearance.
Manmade waterfalls are a physical attraction that serves as a decorative piece. Water falls may vary in design, length, as well origin. As long as you have an idea of how you would like, we will make your dream come true.
A waterslide incorporates twists and turns with water flowing into the pool where individuals can slide from its origin down to the main pool. There are varying designs and materials that can be used to complete your water slides. They are fun as well adventurers.
We recommend you go natural as it complements nature while at the same time complements the idea of going green. Every project delivers on customer satisfaction.
Out of Ground
Due to some geographical land structures, some yards may not accommodate the construction of the traditional swimming pool. It will therefore, call for the construction above the ground level. You will have probably seen this especially with infinity swimming pools. They are common in private residences.
Unique Features
As luxury pool builders in Riceboro, GA, our key objective is to deliver to clients satisfaction. In this, we work with clients to help identify their dreams and possible ideas so we deliver as required. To meet the concept of personalization and customization, the inclusion of unique features comes in handy.

Project Update
In December, 2017, The Planning Commission was requested by the applicant, then Park City Mayor Jack Thomas and Mayor Elect Andy Beerman to delay the review of Version 17.2 of the applicant's project information to determine if a mutually agreeable alternative solution to reduce project density could be achieved through a redesigned plan and City purchase of development rights. Several meetings were held between the applicant, Planning Commission and City Council with the objective of meeting a deadline for decision on the reduced density alternative. The City Council has directed the Planning Commission to review the proposed Development Agreement January 31, 2018 for the reduced density alternative. At that meeting, a potential settlement for all of the remaining development rights was put forward by Mayor Beerman and City Attorney Harrington. The previous meeting dates and updated schedule can be found here. The most current project information can be found in the Additional Documents section of this website.
Please click on the following link to the City Attorney's report to the City Council dated February 1, 2018. The details of the proposed settlement can be found in this report, including the status of existing ski and other easements, Land Management Code identified Transfer of Development Rights (limited to 10% of the total Development Rights and General Obligation Bond information.
Project Information
The Sweeney Properties Master Plan (Master Plan), located throughout the western edge of the historic district of Park City, was approved by the Planning Commission on December 18, 1985. Amendments to the maximum allowed building heights in Creole Gulch and Mid-station locations were approved by City Council on October 16, 1986 in a call-up of the application. The approved Master Plan consists of 277 unit equivalents on 123.59 acres. In addition to the Hillside Properties, it also included the Coalition properties by the town lift plaza the HR-1 properties and three single family lots within Old Town.
The Hillside Properties, commonly referred to as Treasure Hill, or Treasure, are the last two parcels to be developed within the Sweeney Properties Master Plan. Of the 123 acres of Hillside Property, 110 acres were zoned recreation open space in an agreement within the Master Plan. The Hillside properties consist of Creole Gulch and the Mid-station with the following maximum densities:
- Creole Gulch (161.5 residential UE and 15.5 commercial UE on 7.75 acres)
- Mid-station (35.5 residential UE and 3.5 commercial UE on 3.75 acres).
The application is vested under the Land Management Code Conditional Use Permit criteria as it existed at the time of the submittal. Within the original Sweeney Properties Master Plan a timeline was established for the development of each property. The Hillside Properties were identified in the timeline as the last properties to be developed. The Master Plan Development is still valid due to the applicant keeping within the timeline established during the approval.
The Planning Commission began considering the Conditional Use Permit Application for the Hillside (Treasure) Properties on June 8, 2016. The Park City Planning Department has assembled the documents related to the initial Master Plan approval in 1985 and subsequent Planning Commission reviews on this web page. The web page is intended as a public resource for information about this project and will be updated with staff reports and minutes of meetings that are expected to occur over the next several months. We hope it will serve as a refresher for residents already familiar with the Master Plan and the Treasure Condition Use Permit Application as well as a pirmer for newer residents. It will be updated as new information is available including minutes of Planning Commission meetings.
The documents below are the most relevant to the application review:
What role does the City Council play in the review of Treasure Hill? What is the Appeal Panel?
Beginning in 2010, the City Council and the Applicant decided to engage with one another to explore alternatives to the Treasure Project outside of the parameters of the Sweeney Properties Master Plan approval. The discussions, which included several public updates, surveys, and an open house, concluded in 2014 without resolution. No new negotiations have taken place since the Project application returned for Planning Commission review.
As a result of the City Council's role in the negotiations, the City Council removed itself as the appeal authority of the Treasure Conditional Use Permit application under the Land Management Code § 15-1-18 Appeals And Reconsideration Process, specifically section C. Any appeal will be heard by a three-member Appeal Panel, appointed by the Council if and when an appeal is filed.
Comments regarding the project are best directed to email@example.com where they can be more easily available to the Planning Commission and the Public. The website also allows for a more complete public record.
I am a member of the public and have provided questions and comments to the Planning Commission. When can I expect to hear answers to my questions?
The Planning Commission is currently reviewing the history and facts surrounding the Treasure Application as they apply to the previous approvals and the current application for a Conditional Use Permit. Once the Planning Commission indicates their readiness, they will move to a deliberations process where they will discuss their findings as to the mitigation of the project as required by the Land Management Code. They will be considering public input as part of the deliberations.

The Sweeney Properties Master Plan (SPMP) was approved by the Planning Commission on December 18, 1985. The City Council called up the project for review. On October 16, 1986, the City Council approved the SPMP with amendments to the maximum allowed building heights in Hillside Properties known as the Town Lift Mid-Station and the Creole Gulch sites.
Under the SPMP, each development site is required to attain the approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) from the Planning Commission. On January 13, 2004, the applicant submitted a CUP application for the Creole Gulch and Mid-station sites. The CUP was reviewed by the Planning Commission from April 14, 2004 until April 26, 2006 in a series of twenty-three (23) separate meetings.
During the April 26, 2006 Planning Commission meeting, staff outlined additional application requirements which were required to be submitted by the applicant as part of the revised plans in order to continue the full analysis of the proposed development. A complete set of revised plans were received by staff by October 1, 2008. Staff requested additional details, and also requested a description of the affordable housing plan. These additional materials were received by staff on December 18, 2008.
The CUP was reviewed by the Planning Commission from January 7, 2009 until February 10, 2010 in a series of eleven (11) separate meetings, including a meeting with the Park City Housing Authority. Some sheets were revised in January 2009 and others were updated in March 2009.
The City Council decided to proactively engage the applicant to explore additional alternatives and negotiate as a buyer in 2010. The negotiations, which included several public updates, surveys, and an open house, concluded in 2014 without a solution. Since then, the applicant has been meeting with the Planning staff to review and work on its 2009 application. On April 8, 2016, the Applicant submitted a letter requesting that their CUP be placed back on the agenda for the Planning Commission's consideration.
Public Input Options
Input from the public is important in the consideration of any Conditional Use application. Conditional Uses are "administrative" not "discretionary" and the Planning Commission may only consider factual evidence with respect to applicable criteria and conditions – and only at the public hearing(s)- not on the street, at the post office or grocery store. Whether you support, oppose or are neutral with respect to the project, the most helpful input starts with "The project complies/does not comply with Land Management Code Criteria because…".
The Planning staff will prepare a report prior to each meeting. The report will focus on the criteria to be reviewed by the Planning Commission at the next meeting. Reading the staff report is the simplest way to be introduced to the project and the issues to be discussed for each of the Conditional Use Criteria. The report will be prepared and available for the public on the City website at least three business days before each meeting. TLinks on this website will take to you to the staff reports, as well as applicable background documents and Codes .
There are four methods for getting your input to the Planning Commissions. All public comments are forwarded to the Planning Commission for its review and kept on file at the Planning Office. Planning staff will not respond directly to the public comments, but may choose to address substantive review issues in subsequent staff reports. Anonymous comments will not be forwarded to the Planning Commission. Here are ways to provide your comments to the Planning Commission:
- Attend the Planning Commission meeting and give your comments in the public hearing portion of the meeting;
- Prepare your comments in an e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com;
- Stop by the Planning office and fill out a Comment Card;
- Prepare a letter and mail or deliver to the Planning Office. Mailing address: PO Box 1480, Park City UT, 84060
