Jason is excited to announce the release of his new book, "The Journey of Same-Sex Surrogacy".
Surrogacy is a gift that allows couples and individuals, who may not be able to have children traditionally, an opportunity to become parents. The Journey of Same-Sex Surrogacy gives others hope that they, too, can have a family. It's a book about possibilities and dreams that details the trials along the way.
Jason Warner and his partner, deMarco, eagerly want to start the next chapter of their life together. They discover they could each possibly have a biological child that would also be a fraternal twin to the other through a surrogate mother using in vitro fertilization (IVF).
Although it's a new field with few resources, Warner walks readers through this journey of discovery, sharing life-changing decisions, answering many questions and providing several resources while also including stories of others. He also offers valuable information on legal and medical issues that couples face when pursuing surrogacy. PURCHASE NOW!

Final Score: Los Angeles 3, NY Rangers 2 (2-OT)
Los Angeles, CA (SportsNetwork.com) - For the second time in three years, the Los Angeles Kings are Stanley Cup champions. Alec Martinez scored with 5:17 left in the second overtime to lift the Kings to a 3-2 victory over the New York Rangers in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Finals on Friday at Staples Center. With just over five minutes left in the second extra session, Tyler Toffoli fired a shot from atop the right circle that Henrik Lundqvist padded away, but the rebound ricocheted to the low left side, where Martinez was waiting to send it home, ending the longest game in Kings history. Marian Gaborik tied the game with a power-play goal 7:56 into the third, while Conn Smythe Trophy winner Justin Williams opened the scoring in the first for the Kings, who bested the New Jersey Devils in six games during the 2012 Finals for their first title in their 45-year history.

I am trying to make kimchi, and I bought some "dried chili powder "crush"" from the brand Chang.
Are these the right ingredient for making kimchi? The picture of the hot pepper powder in the recipe looks more red then mine (although at the shop there was one that claimed to be hot pepper powder and looked brown @_@)
I live in London and went to Bayswater's Oriental City but unfortunately the selection wasn't very good... anyone live in London know a good oriental supermarket? (apart from going to Chinatown?)

Air Terminal Interchange Project
Project at a Glance
$60 million
Adam Jack
Hampton Roads Public Affairs
About the Project:
Previous Department of Defense legislation requires that VDOT construct the Air Terminal Interchange as consideration for providing the requisite easement for the (I-564) Intermodal Connector. This interchange will serve Chambers Field Air Station. Crews will construct a new interchange that will connect the air station to the current I-564. Once this interchange is built, VDOT will acquire the easement that is needed to build the Intermodal Connector.
Navy Triangle Area Improvements
The Navy Triangle is a five phase strategy. The purpose of this strategy is to develop a beneficial transportation system around the Norfolk Naval Base and Norfolk International Terminals that will:
- Provide the military with improved methods of mobilizing people and goods
- Help alleviate existing congestion and improve the level of service on city and naval station streets
- Eliminate the at-grade railroad crossings
- Connect the ports directly to a freeway system
Project Update
The Navy and VDOT conducted a design charette in September 2012, to determine a new preferred location for analysis in the Interchange Justification Report. The proposed location subsequently went through a fatal flaw analysis and was adopted by the Stakeholder champions. The next step will be to bring the interchange to the TPO for incorporation into the Constrained Long Range Plan. A consultant has been retained to conduct the IJR, with the scope and fee currently being negotiated. Design, procurement and construction needs to be funded and approved.

Dem, GOP senators reach background check dealBy ALAN FRAM
The Associated Press | April 11,2013AP Photo
Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va. listens at left, as Sen. Patrick Toomey, R-Pa. announce Wednesday on Capitol Hill in Washington that they have reached a bipartisan deal on expanding background checks to more gun buyers.WASHINGTON Two key senators have reached a bipartisan deal on expanding background checks to more gun buyers, a Senate aide and lobbyist said Wednesday, an agreement that could build support for President Barack Obamas drive to curb firearms violence in the wake of the elementary school shootings in Connecticut.
Sens. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., and Patrick Toomey, R-Pa., planned to announce their compromise later Wednesday morning. Subjecting more firearms purchases to federal background checks has been the chief goal of Obama and gun control supporters, who promote the system as a way to prevent criminals and other potentially dangerous people from getting the weapons.
Meanwhile, the Senate is ready for an opening vote on restricting guns as Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., set a roll call for Thursday on starting consideration of the firearms legislation. The background check deal makes it even likelier that Democrats will win enough Republican support to thwart an effort by conservatives and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., to block consideration from even starting.
The background check deal would expand the system to cover all commercial sales, such as at gun shows and online. Records of the transactions would have to be kept by licensed gun dealers, the same system used currently.
Private transactions that are not for profit, such as those between relatives, would be exempt from background checks.
Currently, background checks are required only for sales through licensed gun dealers.
The aide and lobbyist spoke on condition of anonymity to describe private talks.
The administration was continuing its effort to pressure Congress on gun control on Wednesday as first lady Michelle Obama planned to visit a Chicago high school where authorities say 29 current or former students have been shot in the past year. Eight of them died.
The background check deal and the Senates scheduled threshold vote on the gun bill were a boost for advocates battling for firearms restrictions in the wake of Decembers shootings that killed 20 first-graders and six staffers at an elementary school in Newtown, Conn.
I hope Republicans will stop trying to shut down debate and start engaging in the tough issues we were sent to Washington to tackle, Reid said.
Manchin and Toomey are among their parties most conservative members and a deal could make it easier for some hesitant senators to support the background check measure, at least for now.
Even so, the ultimate fate of gun legislation remains unclear, clouded by opposition from many Republicans and moderate Democrats in the Democratic-led Senate and the Republican-run House. Many critics say the proposal would violate the Second Amendment right to bear arms and burden law-abiding gun owners.
Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., who led an earlier unsuccessful effort to strike a bipartisan background check deal, is backing the compromise after changes were made from an initial version of the deal between Manchin and Toomey, according to a Senate aide who spoke on condition of anonymity to describe details of the talks.
The changes included eliminating language that would have required states to recognize permits to carry concealed weapons issued by other states and eliminating language that would have limited background checks to sellers who sell at least five guns annually, said the aide.
Some Republicans might vote to begin debate on the legislation but eventually oppose the measure on final passage. Other parts of Obamas gun effort already seem likely to face defeat, including proposed bans on assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition magazines.
The gun legislation Reid wants the Senate to debate would extend the background check requirement to nearly all gun sales. Reid would try to replace that language with the Manchin-Toomey compromise once debate begins, a move that would require a vote.
The overall gun bill also tightens federal laws against illegal gun sales and slightly increases federal aid for school safety.
Thirteen conservatives have signed a letter saying they will block consideration of the measure, and McConnell said he will back that move. That will force Democrats to round up 60 votes to overcome the conservatives.
At least eight Republicans have said they want to begin debate or have indicated a willingness to consider it, a number that would be expected to grow if the background check agreement proves successful.
Some moderate Democrats were remaining noncommittal and could oppose opening the gun debate. There are 53 Senate Democrats and two independents who lean Democratic.
Amid the maneuvering, relatives of some Newtown victims are lobbying to support gun curbs. And Obama has been calling senators from both parties to push for the gun bill.
People should listen to what we have to say and move the debate forward, said Mark Barden, who lost his 7-year-old son, Daniel. Its not just about our tragedy. Lots of kids are killed every day in this nation. We have to help lead the change.
The National Rifle Association opposes Obamas effort and is urging its members it claims nearly 5 million to tell lawmakers of their opposition.
In GOP-heavy Louisiana, the NRA asked members to contact Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu, who is seeking re-election next year. The future of our Second Amendment rights are at stake, the mailing said.
Counteracting that has been an effort by Mayors Against Illegal Guns, one of whose leaders is billionaire New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg. It said it will keep track of key gun-related congressional roll calls and make the information available to voters and contributors a tactic long used by the NRA and other groups.MORE IN Wire NewsCANADENSIS, Pa.

[video] Jim Cramer Quick Take: How to Play Panera Heading into Earnings
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Panera Bread Company (PNRA) reports earnings next Wednesday. TheStreet's Jim Cramer, co-manager of the Action Alerts PLUS portfolio, likes the risk-to-reward setup heading into the report.
Cramer said the company has struggled to keep up with competitors Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG), Buffalo Wild Wings (BWLD) and Starbucks (SBUX). All three of those companies have now set the earnings bar relatively high, with stronger-than-expected earnings results of their own.
Cramer said that if Panera CEO Ron Shaich -- one of his "Bankable 21" CEOs from his new book, Get Rich Carefully -- was able to more efficiently handle lunchtime crowds, the stock could go to $200.
If Shaich fails to improve the peak hours rush efficiency, then the stock is likely headed back down to $150, he said. Either way, the stock is going to move about $25. In this regard, Cramer views it a good risk-to-reward setup with the use of call options, so the downside will be limited.
Cramer acknowledged that even companies with solid operations can get whacked on earnings, referring to the recent results and subsequent price action of Whole Foods Market (WFM).But he concluded that investors should take a chance on Panera, perhaps by shorting the common stock and buying call options, a strategy that's highlighted in greater detail in his new book. -- Written by Bret Kenwell in Petoskey, Mich.

Columns Votes - June 2006
Where did your UW education have its greatest impact?
When Columns asked alumni in June to tell us where their UW education has had the greatest impact, a majority said it was their career. The second choice was another job-related option—their earning power (see chart).
While a Web-based poll is not statistically significant, the responses are similar to research done by the UW Office of Educational Assessment on alumni attitudes. A majority of alumni in those surveys rate their UW education favorably.
|1. Work Life: Your career development
|2. Financial Life: Your earning power
|3. Social Life: Your circle of friends
|4. Intellectual/Cultural Life: Interest in arts, humanities
|5. Personal Life: Your choice of a spouse
|6. Community Life: How you serve community
|7. Political Life: Your view on politics
|8. Recreational Life: Interest in sports, hobbies
|*Because respondents could choose two answers, numbers add up to more than 100%.

Parlour on B+GM: So if I Don't Want Kids, Now I'm Selfish?
We feature the best of Parlour Magazine's need-to-read info in this space twice a month. Enjoy!
By Nakia D. Hansen
A recent op-ed in the Canadian paper, the National Post, literally made me LOL and say 'Ooh, somebody's salty' aloud to no one in particular in my office. You can read it for yourself, but to summarize, writer Joe O'Connor asserts that couples who choose not to have children are "just plain selfish" because they'd rather spend their lives taking vacations, buying white furniture and plugging things in without first having to remove a safety cap from the socket or whatever. O'Connor pines for the good ol' days when, he writes:
Having children used to be the point of being a pair. It was the great aspiration — along with finding love everlasting — a biological impulse to go forth and multiply and, later, once your babies reached a certain age, to cajole them about the merits and benefits of doing their bit to join the ranks of parenthood while giving Mom and Dad some grandkids.
Judging from all the pregnancy bump photos on Facebook and adorable pics of baby feet on Instagram, many people in my network still feel that way. For the majority of Americans, growing up means getting married and starting a family. I certainly don't begrudge anyone that path — I'm excited for the couples I know with buns in, or freshly out, of the oven — but O'Connor doesn't seem as judicious when looking upon those who forego parenthood by choice. After listing some of the things these childless couples do with all of their time not spent organizing play dates or attending parent-teacher conferences, O'Connor considers what might make someone opt-out of child-rearing:
Career demands. Timing. Not having a partner, or not having the right partner. Flaky fears about overburdening our already overburdened planet, personal choice and a bunch of other hooey that serve to hide the fact that happy couples that choose not to have kids are, at root, well, let's see: selfish.
Ladies and gentlemen, we have ourselves a hater. While I'm sure O'Connor loves his family and has zero regrets about choosing to parent, it's painfully obvious that he envies the lives of couples who are free from the tedium and burdens that inevitably go along with the joys of raising kids. In the very beginning of his piece he frames the childless life as one available only in a parent's dream. The lives he tries to slander, in my opinion, sound absolutely wonderful. One of the worst barbs he can throw at non-parents is that they look rested and youthful. I had to ask myself, 'Is this Canada's version of The Onion?'
Having children or not is a personal choice every couple has the right to make. The reasons not to have children so easily dismissed by O'Connor are indeed real, for example the cost to raise just one child is estimated at $300,000 (US), not including costs for their college education. Concerns about the environment may seem "flaky" to some but the earth's population is one R. Kelly song away from 7.1 Billion human beings. It's no longer necessary that we procreate to ensure the survival of our species so who cares if some people would rather spend their old age cruising the Mediterranean than bouncing cherubic grandchildren on their knees?
I'll see O'Connor's accusation of selfishness and raise him one; I say that choosing to have children is the selfish act! When your kids are born, you will likely spend the rest of your life giving all of yourself over to their health and happiness but before sperm and egg meet to form a zygote, you're mostly in it for yourself. If probed, most people's desire to have children will center on what they want for themselves and their own lives. Who says they're having a kid for the sake of this yet-to-exist person being happy and healthy? What's that matter? People have kids because they want to experience a family or the "joy of parenting," continue their legacy, name and blood-line, see their own image in another, have someone to take care of them later in life, have someone who loves them unconditionally, help make the world a better place (granted, pretty selfless) by adding a person made good and wonderful through their nurturing and lessons (the selfish part). You see where I'm going.
Have kids. Go forth and procreate! I love seeing their little diapered butts waddle across the room. But don't kid yourself; a lot of why some couples choose to have children is for their selfish reasons. Ultimately, it's a good kind of selfish which is reflected in a proud parent's eyes or the laughter of a child. The same goes for those who choose not to become parents. Call them selfish but recognize that it's a different but just as good kind of way to put one's own desires and happiness first.Tweet
Parlour on B+GM: Melissa Harris-Perry on Obamacare and the "Year of the Vagina"
Melissa Harris-Perry (MSNBC)
We feature the best of Parlour Magazine's need to read info in this space twice a month. Enjoy!
By Hillary Crosley
If you're a Parlourista, you know that we're big Melissa Harris-Perry fans. I watch the two-hour program, which debuted in February, most weekends and when I can't get to my television, I hit record. For me, Harris-Perry, the first MSNBC black female host with her own show, is like Oprah for housewives, sans all of that sometimes dangerous self-help. I eat up the Tulane professor's smart segments on political issues like race, gender, class and America's upcoming presidential election. I dreamt of profiling her on Parlour, because she, as a smart black woman who thinks critically, embodies so much of what we strive to represent here on the site. Well, guess what?
During Essence Music Festival earlier this month, I chatted with Mrs. Harris-Perry backstage about the 'Year of the Vagina,' Obama as a possible one-term president and being MSNBC's new black woman role model.
Parlour: You talked about your book Sister Citizen during Essence Music Festival, what's it about?
Dr. Melissa Harris-Perry: Sister Citizen is about the way stereotypes continue to influence how African American women feel about themselves. The idea of the jezebel, mammy, angry black woman and strong black woman as constraints on our sense of self is a core theme but when we try to address that, we take individual psychological routes to feel better about ourselves. I'm really interested in citizenship, the fight against those stereotypes and our making claims about our rights to be full citizens and engaging politically.
How are black women are fighting for citizenship?
The book was released long before I knew 2012 would be the 'Year of the Vagina' and we would continue talking about things I thought were settled. In the context of the book, I was talking specifically about how citizens feel no shame making demands on the state. Rich white men say 'Give me a tax break, I'm a job creator.' But our needs, for example, reasonable affordable childcare, sufficient food subsidies or decent affordable housing and healthcare, somehow it's shameful for us to demand those things. It's both an issue of our citizenship within the American landscape as Americans, but also our citizenship within blackness. For black women, I see it as two-prong, meaning we're not meant to ask for anything from the black political agenda so we're told to make our issues secondary to that of the endangered black man. We'll talk about, for example, the 'No Snitching' policy, but we'll only talk about how that impacts a 20-year-old urban man who's caught up in prison. But we don't talk about how the silence impacts girls who are 'ride or die' and end up in prison for doing nothing.
On your show, you've said that American imperialism is the burden and pleasure of African Americans, what do you mean?
It's really easy as a Black American to forget that we are actively benefiting from the continued oppression of working people around the world. As poor as poorest black Americans are, we are still wearing goods and participating in services that come from children who are basically in slavery in other parts of the world. Because we have our own history of oppression, a lot of times we think that frees us from our own social responsibility but it doesn't. We shouldn't all feel shamed, but as Americans we're part of that [history and present]. We both have all the dis-privileges of our blackness but we also have all of the privileges of our Americaness, especially middle class black folks. We have to be very careful about recognition of how our own economic, social and political privileges are still built on those who have less in this country and certainly always internationally.
With the new Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, passed by the Supreme Court, many are saying Barack Obama may be a one-term president, but at least he set us on the path towards free healthcare. Any truth to those statements?
A little bit, which is to say President Obama and Minority Leader of the United States House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi are not in the position that President Lyndon B. Johnson was with massive Democratic majorities in the House and the Senate. They are not in the position that President Franklin Delano Roosevelt was in, three terms of presidency and massive majorities and a friendly Supreme Court. Obama and Pelosi understood very clearly they had a 5-4 court, a filibustered Senate and to still push the Affordable Care Act through was a courageous, non-political decision. I don't know if we're moving toward universal healthcare because the European nations who have it are themselves [are in troubled times]. The austerity measures in Europe have demonstrated how fragile the notion of a social safety net is especially when those societies become more diverse. The European Union is freaking out because there's all of these non-Western European countries that are a part of it now so it has to manage a much broader notion of what it means to be European. Former imperial nations like Great Britain and France are coping with North African and Asian immigrants, the colonies coming to the home. But I do think that we are within five years of full coverage for American citizens. Now the problem is, America also has millions of people who are not citizens and we've passed such a restrictive healthcare mandate that we have not addressed the reality that we must also provide healthcare for non-citizens.
Switching gears, I heard your husband took you to South Africa for a date?
James and I went to Capetown for our fourth date, we [didn't live in the same city and] had just started dating. The most surprising experience was a conversation with a waiter and his wife while out one night. They lived in a township and were talking about their lives. He was feeling the post-apartheid reality of Capetown which is not as a free spirited as Johannesburg. But when he found out I was from New Orleans, this man who lives in post-apartheid South Africa in a township says to us, 'I'm sorry your government hates you' and I was like, 'Oh shit.'
What are your favorite travel spots?
Barcelona, it is the only place that's ever made me think I could live outside of New Orleans. I fell in love with Paris, even though we went in the winter and it was extremely cold but the food was ridiculous! InItaly, we spent most of our time in Venice and only spent two days in Rome. I regret that. [When we got to the city] I thought, 'Why didn't I know about Rome?'
What are your favorite songs right now?
Anything by Beyoncé, I have a Beyoncé problem. Even if she wasn't nice, I sort of wish she was a horrible, awful bitch because she would still be fabulous! My 10-year-old kid loves Rihanna to a problematic extent and likes singing her songs. We went to an MSNBC staff bonding karaoke night and my daughter sang a Rihanna song and my staff was like, 'Is this okay?' My husband plays Jill Scott's "Blessed" a lot and I loveFrankie Beverly and Maze's "Southern Girl."
Do you ever say 'Wow, I'm the first black woman with an MSNBC show about smart black people things and they pay me for it'?
No! But I was attacked by [Fox News pundit] Bill O'Reilly the other day, and thought, 'Bill O'Reilly's pissed, that's hot!' The rest of it feels like work. I don't watch the show, I can't stand the sound of my voice, but the idea that Bill O'Reilly was pissed felt great!
Parlour on B+GM: In Defense of the Straight-Haired Natural Girl
We feature the best of Parlour Magazine's need to read info in this space twice a month. Enjoy!
Caesar? Three times. Locs? Six years. Lion-like curly fro? I'm a pro. Cornrowed bouffant? I swear I was the first in Brooklyn. When it comes to natural hair- I've pretty much done it all since I decided to stop relaxing my hair during my senior year of high school, close to 14 years ago. It was 1997 and after growing out my Halle Berry-esque cut out into a shoulder length bob – I started going longer and longer between touch-ups. Aside from being busy with graduation and a near-expulsion experience (suburban thuggin!) I became pretty lazy with my upkeep and got a kick out of the volume that my hair had when new growth mixed with the relaxed part. My hair was thick, shiny and wavy. It felt alive and I liked it.
After figuring out a transitional technique that worked for me (did you know that I INVENTED the 'twist out'?) I stopped relaxing all together. By the time I graduated high school and enter Howard University I had a lion's mane of thick, curly, shiny hair. It was on that campus that I started what has/will be a lifelong evolution on my political, personal and beauty preferences and naturally my outward appearance followed suit. When I accepted my degree, I threw up a peace sign in Cramton Auditorium with a shoulder-length bundle of dreadlocks that I carried on into my early twenties. After cutting my locs off in a heatwave-induced rage, I've continued to rock a plethora of natural styles that compliment my mood of the moment. I've never saw a 'loctician' or visited a natural hair salon—aside from cornrowed-styles, I twisted my own locs and have always maintained my curly hair myself. If it's natural, I just let it do it's natural thing, with as little guidance as possible. And don't ask me what "type" of natural hair I have (B2, Prop 8, ??) or when I made the "big chop" because I honestly have no true idea of what you are speaking of. I'd consider myself to be a casual natural woman, meaning…it's just my hair. No huge event, grandstanding, personal politics, message boards, technique devotion involved.
Which brings me to this. About a year or so ago, I started to get regular blow-outs. After going to my local salon to get a trim I noticed that my ends had fell victim to endless twisting, brushing…just being messed with in the name of natural "styles." So about three weeks later—I went back…and it's become a regular thing for me to have long straight hair for long periods of time. Frankly, my hair grows faster, and it's extremely easier to maintain for my lifestyle. I keep it conditioned, and after leaving the salon, I don't put any heat in it. I don't even use oil-sheen (except when its a #struggle day) and rotate between a variety easy/maleable styles and ponytails. And yes, I work out, I sweat and let it be great. The less I do to it, the better it looks and there is nothing like having variety on a hot day that involves a body of water. I will gladly jump in the pool and emerge with a 'fro full of curls.
But somehow during this time, I think I lost my 'natural' card to some. After trading hair horror stories with an old colleague last month, I described myself as "natural" while standing there with chest-length straight hair. The look on her face said everything. She jokingly referred to me as 'faux natural.' [Sidenote: I hate the term 'natural' when describing a group of women, ie "What's up with the naturals?" Are we one big singing group?] And while I understand where she was coming from, I replied by affirming that if having natural hair means hair that is free of processing/chemicals, etc—then I rightfully fit in the category. The important thing is that it grows amazingly fast, it moves, it shines and it is strong. So what if it is straight? Am I any less "down" than I was with locs? Can the straight-haired natural girls get some love too? Is it even that serious to you?
Before writing this, I mentioned the idea to a few girlfriends who are curly and straight hair wearers and they all lamented at the growing number of what Solange rightfully labeled the "Natural Hair Police." Basically, the women who live by a totalarian code of what natural hair is. Sounds to me like the same folks who administered the 'brown paper-bag' test to sistas back in the day and enforced the light-skinned, long hair code of beauty that still haunts many Black women today. If this entire movement to embrace our natural textures is to be honest and true, we also need to embrace the variety that it holds—to include the option of straightening it with heat and actually liking it. Besides, why would I want to use a "natural" product to give me a different, "desired" curl pattern other than my own? Basically, if I my hair texture is that of say…Viola Davis, then why are you cramming products in my face so that my hair can look like Cree Summer? That doesn't sound natural to me. Or over twisting/brushing/fiddling/braiding your hair until it breaks off and it looks dry and horrible? But anyway, that's another post.
My straight hair isn't about me attempting to look at all European or 'acceptable" to some. I've maintained a pretty amazing career with curly and straight hair. It's me maximizing the versatility and options that I have with it. With all that said, there a plenty of women like myself with a ponytail swinging that are just as natural with their hair as the next chick with a twist-out. Who still walks slow in the rain and don't mind being sweat-drenched after a night of dancing. If natural hair is to be truly accepted as a norm with Black women, then we need to accept the natural desire to experiment and change.
Where here, we're queer straight, and it's great!

Parlour on B+GM: Men, In My Vagina, And In My News
Today we're introducing a cross-publication series with the lovely and amazing Parlour Magazine. I used to write a column for them on sociopolitical issues called Politrix, and refuse to give up my family status. We'll feature the best of their need to read info in this space twice a month. Enjoy!

Peace, this is mecca the ladybug and I'm sayin though! what is really what if I can't even get comfortable because the supreme court is, like, all in my uterus?! —ladybug mecca
Lately, men have been pretty vocal about my/yours/our lady-business. From hot-button issues like abortion to superficial topics such as what we wear (ps. Fuck you if you don't like my wedges or maxi-dress), undoubtedly the loudest person in the room when it comes to a woman's issue always seems to be a man. Not that there is anything wrong with a man's input—but there are some topics that testicle-carriers need to fall back on. Namely, topics revolving around what I can do with and put in my vagina. After all, I think I'm the best person to make a judgement call on, well, myself. And if I need a second medical or political opinion, I'm a little more inclined to respond to a woman's point of view. Too bad mainstream media thinks the opposite.
A recent study shows that among 35 national publications (such as The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal), men are quoted around five time more then women in stories involving issues such as birth control, Planned Parenthood and abortion. The Daily Beast reports:
"…men had 81 percent of the quotes in stories about abortion, the research group said Thursday, while women had 12 percent and organizations had 7 percent.
In stories about birth control, men scored 75 percent of the quotes, with women getting 19 percent and organizations getting 6 percent. Stories about Planned Parenthood had a similar ratio, with men getting 67 percent, women getting 26 percent, and organizations getting 7 percent."
Funny enough, while men are dominating the political/social debate surrounding women's bodies, they are also dominating the media conversations (albeit at a lower rate) concerning women's rights:
"Women fared a bit better in stories about women's rights, getting 31 percent of the quotes compared with 52 percent for men and 17 percent for organizations."
Sadly, I'm not surprised that men are generally quoted more in news stories overall, however there seems to be a connection between the hysteria and inexplainable political actions (word to Rep. Lisa Brown) associated with women's issues and how women are represented in media focusing on women's issues. This in itself, presents a danger in how women and women's issues are perceived and considered by the general public. Because of the role of 'media-as-fact' in the United States, this leads to a behavior of men being seen as the 'experts' on women's issues, which then leads to mis-recognition, misleading statements and potentially harmful legislature for all of us. This isn't to say that men can't speak intelligently about women, but that the role and voice of women should be equal to men, and in some cases elevated, when it comes to women's issues in the media to maintain accuracy, honesty, legitimacy most importantly—objectivity for the benefit of the reading public. So while I'm a bit flattered that my sexual behavior and health is such a concern to all, I'll leave it to the ladies to reference in determining the best way to proceed. Love you still fellas.

It's no secret that I was laid off back in November. It's also no secret that I'm a bit of an optimist, viewing every skinned knee as a chance to get a cheery, smiley-face Band-Aid. So it's no surprise that I would embrace unemployment as the nudge I needed to stop planning my career and create it.
The surprising thing is, I came to the conclusion that I don't actually want a career, at least not in the traditional sense. I'm not saying I want to sit on my couch in ratty sweats (I don't even own a pair of sweats!) and eat bonbons (refined sugar is a no-no, except for gummy worms, yum), but I'm tired of taking the crowded road to the top, doing what I'm "supposed" to do. I finally realized that perhaps the thing I had been chasing—a spot atop the masthead of a magazine of my own creation—might actually suck once I caught it… Read more on ParlourMagazine.com.
Pregnancy is supposed to be a happy time, full of new beginnings, and prep fpr poopy diapers, and late-night feedings (okay, so maybe it's an exhausting time). But it's a dangerous proposition for a growing number of women in the United States. The Los Angeles Times recently ran a story about the increasing maternal death rate—two women die every single day of problems related to pregnancy and childbirth, according to the National Center for Health Statistics. The maternal mortality rate—that's the number of women who die within 42 days of delivery—is higher than that of 40 other industrialized nations, despite the fact that we spend more per birth than any other country in the world, and for every woman who dies, another 50 are extremely ill following delivery (think: hemorrhaging and kidney failure).
Experts aren't exactly sure why these numbers are trending upward, but they suspect it's at least in part because preexisting conditions (like cardiovascular disease and diabetes precipitated by obesity) aren't being diagnosed or considered during prenatal treatment. It's also a gender, race, and economic issue. A study conducted by the CDC, state health departments across the country, and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists discovered that Black women are nearly four times more likely to die of pregnancy-related complications than white women.… Read more on ParlourMagazine.com.

The Scientific Challenge to Free Will and Criminal Responsibility: Why modern science could be a corrective force in a criminal justice system that aspires to-- but falls short of -- the ideals of retributive proportionality.
This Note addresses whether criminals law's assumptions about "free will" might be undermined and transformed by modern science. Existing scholarship has focused on the assumptions about human freedom that underlie substantive criminal law doctrine and foundational theories of punishment. In contrast, I explore the points of discretion in the criminal justice system, where key actors in the sentencing process are authorized to make moral determinations outside of the ordinary doctrinal framework. I observe that discretionary moral adjudication in the criminal justice system contains implicit judgments about human agency, and reflects folk beliefs about free will. In particular, key sentencing actors bring a distorted view of human agency to bear on their sentencing decisions. This distorted view results in a moral blind spot, disabling adjudicators from moral inferences that militate in favor of restraint in sentencing. Hence, I argue, modern science could have a corrective moral influence on criminal law, by fostering amongst key sentencing actors a more realistic view of human behavior.
"…could have"…that's known as strong support in my neck of the woods. And talking about what the law considers realistic human behavior is fascinating… in that it's like a dark Grimm fairy tale.
