"The Lady" is an epic love story about how an extraordinary couple and family sacrifice their happiness at great human cost for a higher cause. This is the story of Aung San Suu Kyi and her husband, Michael Aris.
Despite distance, long separations, and a dangerously hostile regime, their love endures until the very end. A story of devotion and human understanding set against a background of political turmoil which continues today.
"The Lady" also is the story of the peaceful quest of the woman who is at the core of Burma's democracy movement.

Featured Articles
2011 Guide Analysis: "Biopics of politically contentious figures are usually period pieces for a good reason. Chief among them of course is the potential legal and personal ramifications for not just the person in question, but the filmmakers as well. One way around this is to create a fictional character 'inspired by' said person (eg. the Tony Blair-esque Adam Lang in Polanski's "The Ghost Writer"), however French filmmaker Luc Besson isn't one to beat around the bush.
As a result, his biopic of current Burmese opposition leader and Nobel Peace Prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi has been shot under top secret conditions in Paris, Bangkok and the UK. As time and production winds on though, it's becoming hard for Besson to keep his film a secret. A release for this Fall in the UK is already locked in though, which means the attention will only become more focused from here on out.
For those unfamiliar, Aung San Suu Kyi lead the National League for Democracy (NLD) party to a landslide election win in Myanmar in 1990. However the win was never recognised by the country's ruling military junta who have been in power since a coup d'état in 1962 and have kept her incarcerated for most of the past two decades. She was freed in November after seven straight years of house arrest at her lakeside mansion in Rangoon, less than a week after an election that critics said was a charade aimed at preserving military rule behind a civilian facade in Myanmar.
With the possibility that she could be placed under house arrest again at any time, the surrounding publicity and reaction to the film could have serious repercussions in a way no other film opening this year can come close to. Don't expect any of the usual PR build-up here either, this will be very carefully handled by those involved. If it works though, it could become one of the most truly inspirational films of recent times."


text: I happened across Michael Weatherly on ads for NCIS, and when I tried to search your blog, was shocked he has not been included. I mean... look at the guy - he's remarkably hot. Sadly, there is a dire need for shirtless pics of this man (made all the more tragic since a few shots show a glimpse of hairy chest!!!). But, here are several selections anyway. Unfortunately, some show him with his beau, Jessica Alba (but we can still dream). Enjoy!

Book Description:
Mae McNally Kirwin was born in 1894 in Chokio, a small prairie community in western Minnesota. In 1926, the sudden death of her husband left Mae to support herself and her five children. These facts were well known, but for Logue, they were not enough. Determined to get to know her grandmother better, Logue sets out to assemble the bits and pieces of her grandmother's life. Along the way, Logue takes the reader-and herself-on a journey of discovery. Digging through forgotten bank records, old newspapers, handwritten census forms, family documents, and faded recipes, she pieces together the past. In the process, she tells a much larger story-that of a community, a way of life, a family, and a single woman's struggle to survive in a world that is both harsh and richly rewarding.

Of course we are not going to tell anyone about this until after the fact, because it seems pretty obvious that we have a security issue. The person who has been taking stuff knows where the cameras are located, it is not so hard to figure it out if you work at a place. So we are going to trade CCTV cameras around and hook up a couple of wireless cameras which will not be known to the people there, especially the security people. In fact we are wondering if the people who are supposed to b monitoring the cameras is not responsible for disabling the cameras and or tilting them in a subtle way so that the act of theft can not be seen.

Cheapest Taxi Rentals in Bristol
I am in a bit of bind right now. My car is in the shop, but I still need to be able to get to work on a daily basis. I am also going to need to go other places, in order to run errands. I do not have a lot of money right now, but it looks like I will need to hire a taxi for Bristol to provide me with transportation for the next couple of days, at the least. Therefore, the onus is on me to find the cheapest taxi services that are located in this city, so that I can avoid spending too much money.
I am fairly upset to find myself in this situation, because I was hoping that my car would last longer, without experiencing any significant problems. I do not know how much the bill will be for getting it fixed. (more…)
A Mind is a Terrible Thing to Waste
I am really proud of my friend Suboi. She is a survivor. Suboi works very hard to get what she wants out of life. In a way, she is an unofficial and unspoken role model to me. She had to work through many hardships and heartaches to reach her goals of being a surgeon. I know that many people on this planet could not walk a mile in her shoes. My friend is living proof that nothing in life is impossible. She went from poverty to receiving cosmetic laser training. Today, she is able to write her own ticket in life.
Suboi came from humble beginnings in Vietnam. She is the oldest of three kids. Her family was poor. They lived in the slums of Saigon. They barely had enough food to eat each day. Her father worked as merchant and butcher. (more…)
My Aunt Means Everything to Me
My aunt raised me after my mother died when I was just a young girl. She has done everything possible so I can still feel a connection to my mother, and I will love her forever for that. One of the things that she did was keep my mother's collection of vintage jewellery to give to me once I was old enough to appreciate the pieces. Not only did I fall in love with them, but I also wanted to add to the collection so I could pass it down to my own daughters one day.
My aunt and I loved to find new outlets for my jewellery collection, and that is why I was so excited when I found a new company online. They have been in business for a while, but they were new to me. (more…)
Why is B Vitamins and magnesium not to be taken if planning a pregnancy?
- I have recently been recommended B Vitamins by my nutritionist but i am planning a pregnancy and the product info suggests that it is NOT to be used if planning a pregnancy. Check out the product on http://shop.biocare.co.uk/templates/product.aspx?ProductGuid=17330
Answer by BadMonkey
That isn't true. B vitamins are extremely good for females – my GP has told me to stay on mine alongside my prenatal vitamins and extra folic acid throughout my pregnancy, and was pleased that I was taking them before I conceived. They help your body to absorb iron more efficiently and help with energy levels as well as providing folic acid as part of any b-complex.
- I been considering to obtain my class B license since I'm passionate for driving. However, I have no idea how much does it cost to go attend a class b school in california? Currently located in SF.
Answer by Happy Gramps
Actually, the tests can be taken at the DMV – the "problem" is finding a truck to take the BTW test in…………..you would need to contact several schools to see what their rates are. Also, if you are going to take a course, you may as well go for the Class A license – more opportunity of employment than with just the Class B
- Do the B-12 vitamins still get extracted from animal products or are they synthetically made?
Also, do vegans/vegetarians NEED to take algae pills for EPA and DHA or is it not a big concern? I know a lot of meat eaters don't even get enough either because a lot don't eat fish.
Answer by exsft
They are mostly synthesized from GMO bacteria.
"Because of the intricacy of synthesizing B12 and the length of time necessary, biotechnology is mostly used in the production of the vitamin, reports the GMO-Compass.org website. In fact, some bacteria are "genetically modified" for B12 synthesis"
"Vitamins E (tocopherols) and C are the most common vitamins raising GMO concerns, since E is derived from soy and C from corn. But Baker believes that both B2 and B12 (cyanocobalamin) are now primarily derived from GM microorganisms. Meanwhile, biotechnology companies have received patents in recent years to produce other vitamins, such as A (betacarotene) and C, from GM microorganisms."
as for supposedly plant sources of b12, here some info from the VEgan Resource Group:
"Tempeh, miso, sea vegetables, and other plant foods are sometimes reported to contain vitamin B12. These products, however, are not reliable sources of the vitamin. The standard method for measuring vitamin B12 in foods measures both active and inactive forms of vitamin B12. The inactive form (also called analogues) actually interferes with normal vitamin B12 absorption and metabolism (7). When only active vitamin B12 is measured, plant foods including fermented soyfoods and sea vegetables do not contain significant amounts of active vitamin B12 (8).
Very small amounts of vitamin B12 have been found in plants grown in soil treated with manure (9). It is not clear whether this vitamin B12 is the active form or the inactive analogue. In any case, the amounts are so small that more than 23 cups of organically grown spinach would have to be eaten every day in order to meet the adult RDA for vitamin "
Local ADT Home Security Company
I would like to get a home security system in the near future, because there was a break in near my house recently, and I found it to be quite unnerving. Previously, I thought that I lived in a very safe location, but that perception has changed a lot over the past week, ever since that break in. Right now, I am trying to find a business that provides adt home security in your area, so that I can look into getting a security system set up in my house at some point within the next couple of weeks.
I would actually like to get the security system as soon as possible, and I would not mind if the security company sent someone over to my house in the morning tomorrow in order to start installing the security system. I do not like the thought of my family being at home without a security system, because you never know when someone could try to break into your house. (more…)
Try Not to Use an Ad Blocker
When looking for some cheap internet in my area, I happened upon this site, internetproviders.us/internet-providers/. They were a very fast and easy to use site, and on top of that they had some great customer service when I ran into a problem, I asked them a few questions and they responded within fifteen minutes answering all of my concerns. I have always recommended companies like this, but this one goes so much further than that, they are already offering a service that all of america can benefit from. But on top of that, it is an absolutely free service. You do not pay a penny to use their site. Sure there are a few ads on the page, but what page does not have ads on it these days. You can just use ad blocker or something else to get rid of those anyways. I know a lot of people do use ad blocker and I do not agree with that, you are taking away the only money that these not for profit sites make. (more…)
Which 2nd hand car is ideal to buy with less cost of maintenance, parts but more reliable?
- Hi all Im searching for a 2nd hand car here in Saudi Arabia, anybody can advise me which of the 2 car ( Mazda 3 and Honda Civic ) is more reliable and less cost of maintenance and parts.
Answer by mccoyblues
I prefer the Mazda but both cars should be very reliable and inexpensive to maintain,
- This question is a part of my educational project. As a part i wanted to understand what are the drivers of consumers 2nd car(not 2nd hand car) purchase behavior?
Answer by doublequinella
Much more careful of the contract if financing, and probably more deliberate about negotiating. . .
- i am going to abu dhabi as a structural engineer in an offshore industry as a fresher having no previous job experience. i wanna get a driving license (though i dont have any driving license in my residing country) and and wanna buy a 2nd hand used car, so please help me regarding this issue.
Answer by h
Your questions will be answered by visiting the links giving below:
Please get prepared for a long and costly procedere if you are an Indian/Pakistani.
All the best.
- the 2nd hand car bought through a car loan was found defective 2 days after the deal was closed. the engine just shut down along a busy highway.
Answer by paul
its yours….cars are sold as is. it is your responsibilty to have it checked by a mechanic.
lemon laws only exist if you buy a new car, and the same part fails three times after being fixed at the dealer

Looking for Internet Service Deals
Next month, I will be moving to a different state. I'm moving because of a job opportunity that was offered to me by the company I work at. They want me to go to one of their new branches and help run the place as a manager. I'm really excited for this, because they promoted me and put me in charge. I'll have a new home in the state and I'll need Internet service. I've been looking at http://www.cheapdslinternetserviceproviders.com/cheap-internet/ for some information that will help be get a good, affordable Internet service provider.
For the past four years, I've had the Internet through a major service provider. While they have given me fantastic upload and download speeds with no data cap on my bandwidth, their prices aren't exactly the most competitive. I want to spend less money on Internet service this time. (more…)

Affirmation of Love in a Natural Setting
As an individual who has managed and directed several venues, weddings and events I can tell you without a doubt that one of the most difficult tasks that any young couple seeking to get married will have to face is the hunt for an appropriate venue. With so many considerations to take into mind when planning a wedding (seating, space, music, invites and so on), I have begun to suggest to my clients that during the warmer months they should seek a more non-traditional but comfortable setting to take their vows; a wedding tipi.

When the Cards Don't Stack
I've been playing cards online for years - even before the notion of online casinos. It had been a while since I played last when I opened up my e-mail to find online casino offers in my inbox. That brought back a rush of nostalgia as I sat back and allowed the memories to wash over me, back when gambling online was still a new and novel thing to do. A good card player could go into almost any gambling website and cash out like a bandit, better than they would have at any other real world casino. This was because you were not playing the house - you were playing each other. The House wasn't there to watch you or to take your money: they got their cut and you got yours, simple as that. This is probably why the United States government decided to actually step in and do away online casinos by blocking access to hundreds of them from the U.S.
It seems to me that when the U.S government isn't getting it's cut out of the pie, they get angry. Resume Digesting

Can homemade soda save you money?
Devices from SodaStream and SodaSparkle let you craft your own soft drinks or seltzers. Cost-effective? That depends.
Homemade cold drinks are a hot business in the U.S. these days. We bought more than 1.2 million carbonating devices -- chiefly SodaStream and SodaSparkle -- last year, according to The New York Times.
Making fizzy drinks at home is nothing new -- the out-of-control seltzer bottle was a staple of silent-film comedies -- but it's now a lot easier to craft your own bubbly water, all-natural sodas or knockoffs of popular pops like Coca Cola and Dr Pepper.
It's pretty simple: Pour water into the special bottle (it withstands the pressure), add carbonation and, if you like, flavor the result. Depending on which kind you buy and what's included (e.g., how many flavor mixes or cartridges), expect to pay anywhere from $60 to $170.
SodaStream cartridges are refillable and cost about $30; if you trade them in at the retailer a replacement cartridge will cost about $15. SodaSparkle's one-time-use cartridges cost anywhere from 53 to 70 cents apiece.
Can such devices save you money? That depends on whom you ask, and on what you want the machines to do for you. In fact, some people don't care whether they save moneyt.
Joshua Dorkin of BiggerPockets has never done the math. He bought the SodaStream to reduce his dependency on commercial soft drinks. Now he drinks homemade seltzer for a treat, instead of popping open can after can.
"I really saw this as a way to force me to be healthier…I'm already consuming less sugar and junk calories," he says.
An analysis on the DrPennyPincher blog indicates that SodaStream beverages cost 2.96 cents per fluid ounce. To produce the equivalent of the eight-pack of 12-ounce bottled soda that the good doctor's wife prefers costs $2.84, a savings of $1.16.
"With the cost savings plus the convenience and fun of making soda at home, as well as reducing plastic consumption, Sodastream has some advantages," he says.
KB of the Natural As Possible Mom blog reports that the "Sparkling Naturals" flavors work out to about $1.66 per liter. Some folks might blanch at the cost, but blogger Karen J. Bannan notes that "it's about the same" as the natural sodas she buys for her husband at Whole Foods -- and the smaller bottles never go flat and get thrown away, the way 2-liter bottles sometimes did.
She's definitely saving money on her own preferred beverage, natural flavored seltzer: "MyWater Essences cost $9.99 and make 60 liters -- very cost-effective."
Not everyone saves
But blogger Tim Owens ran the numbers and came to a different conclusion. "At the end of the day the SodaStream only saves you money if you regularly buy name-brand can soda and typically pay full cost," he writes in a post on his eponymous website.
On the other hand, Owens sure doesn't miss "lugging 12-packs of soda from the car" and also notes that his family no longer leaves half-finished soda cans to go flat.
A brand-loyal soft drink user might not care for soda machines' approximations of popular pops. Over at the Preaching to the Perverted website, a blogger named Dave found most SodaStream flavors "somewhat lacking," especially that of his beloved Diet Coke.
His advice? Buy a variety pack of mixes, which has samples of 12 flavors. "You can try them before you commit," he says in a post called "Now I'm carbonating everything."
Ketchup soda, anybody?
Some users prefer to make their own flavors. Dave is one of them, and warns that this can be messy since some liquids react rather explosively to carbonation.
"I fully endorse experimentation, just be prepared to do some cleanup," he says.
Putting anything other than water into the bottle could void the machine's warranty, according to the New York Times article. This doesn't stop the adventurous from fizzing-up liquids such as wine, liqueurs and centrifuged tomato juice.
That last one was a bust, incidentally; it came out tasting "like ketchup soda." But homemade sodas can include ingredients such as fresh lemon -- seldom used in bottled drinks due to the short shelf life of the fruit's acidity -- or real ginger. The adventurous are also infusing wine or vodka with herbs, fruit or even chili peppers.
Besides, warranties don't seem to matter to a certain group of soda-makers: They're using an adapter to allow the SodaStream to accept paintball C02 tanks, which are considerably cheaper to refill. Owens, who notes that paintball tanks are currently used by home brewers, says the $60 adapter will pay for itself within a few months and then allow him to "enjoy much cheaper C02 costs going forward."
So should you buy a soda maker? That depends. How much soda or flavored seltzer does your household really consume? Does that consumption vary enough -- mostly in the summer when you're entertaining, say -- to make buying on-sale commercial soft drinks a better bet?
Be realistic about this, or the soda maker could become this years Fad Device: used a while and then relegated to a high shelf in the pantry, right next to the countertop deep fat fryer and the mini-cupcake bakery. They all seemed like good ideas at the time, too.
More on MSN Money:
I got a nice sodastream using a 20% off coupon from BedBath&Beyond and collected with a rebate from them that I printed off their website. I only use coupons when purchasing the soda syrup and cartidges, routining saving 33% off the shelf price. The kicker is I had some discover card rewards that I cashed in for BBB and got all those things free when I piled on the coupons with the reward cards.
I didn't buy it for myself, I got it for my dad specificly because he drinks a lot of lemon lime soda. I figured out I spent about $50 out of pocket to get the machine and about a years supply of soda. My parents live in a rural area, now they travel to town less to buy pop and return them for the 10c deposit that pop cans have in Michigan.
It also makes nice seltzer water for fresh lime or a dash of apple juice.
If you get one, just get one smart.
Well I have the Soda stream system, It does not save money. It is convenient when the cartridge is full and you have the syrup. That is where it ends. You can buy seltzer or club soda and add your flavoring simple. If you buy the Genesis starter kit and add one bottle of syrup it costs about $2.08
per liter. (you need to add a bottle of syrup so you will have enough to use up the whole bottle of carbonation. So after that it would cost about a $1.00 per liter. I buy 2 liter bottles of name brand soda 10 for 10 dollars on sale (which is often) or $1.35 - 1.67 not on sale. It is only worth it if you do not care about cost or worrying about running out of flavor or carbonators ....you still have to go to the store ....this is a "fad" or "novelty right now. Buy off brand seltzer and syrup its cheaper ...
I have a SODA STREAM- I LOVE it i have to admit some of the flavors leave a slight aftertaste. But the "regular" cola is just as good as national brand that astarts with a "P". One way to REALLY save money with it, is if you drink the energy drink R#@ B&^%. it is $5.99 for the mix.. This makes equal to 12 liters. I can not taste any difference. And you can adjust how much to add. If it makes you jittery, back off a little.
Its also GREAT to take camping!

President Obama moves to extend hospital visitation rights to same-sex couples
Inga Sarda-Sorensen
Director of Communications
(Office) 646.358.1463
(Cell) 202.641.5592
WASHINGTON, April 15 — The National Gay and Lesbian Task Force responded to President Obama's memorandum tonight that instructs the Department of Health and Human Services to establish a rule that would prohibit hospitals from denying visitation rights to same-sex partners, and allow same-sex couples to share medical power of attorney. The new rule will affect any hospital that receives Medicare or Medicaid funding.
Statement by Rea Carey, Executive Director
National Gay and Lesbian Task Force
"With this action, the government is taking a significant step toward recognizing our underlying humanity. Most people in this country already agree that no one should be left alone to die or be denied the right to see their loved ones in the hospital due to cruel and discriminatory bias. This is a profoundly painful experience that loving families all across the country have had to endure for years. An end to this practice can't come soon enough. We are pleased the administration has taken this step."
To learn more about the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, follow us on Twitter: @TheTaskForce.
The mission of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force is to build the grassroots power of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community. We do this by training activists, equipping state and local organizations with the skills needed to organize broad-based campaigns to defeat anti-LGBT referenda and advance pro-LGBT legislation, and building the organizational capacity of our movement. Our Policy Institute, the movement's premier think tank, provides research and policy analysis to support the struggle for complete equality and to counter right-wing lies. As part of a broader social justice movement, we work to create a nation that respects the diversity of human expression and identity and creates opportunity for all. Headquartered in Washington, D.C., we also have offices in New York City, Los Angeles, Miami, Minneapolis and Cambridge.

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -- Kevin Love scored a season-high 42 points and added 10 rebounds, and the Minnesota Timberwolves snapped a 16-game losing streak to the Portland Trail Blazers with a 122-110 victory on Saturday night.
The Timberwolves had not defeated the Blazers since a 94-93 victory at home on March 25, 2007. The Timberwolves hadn't won in Portland since Dec. 7, 2005, a string of 11 straight games.
Love was just one shy of his career-best 43 points scored at Denver on Dec. 18, 2010.
Former Blazers swingman Martel Webster added 21 points and eight rebounds for the Timberwolves.
Gerald Wallace had 25 points and 14 rebounds for the Blazers, who have lost nine of their last 13 games. Nicolas Batum finished with 29 points.
Blazers All-Star LaMarcus Aldridge, who was averaging 22.1 points and 8.3 rebounds going into the game, was held to 14 points and seven boards before fouling out with just under five minutes left in the fourth quarter.
Minnesota was playing the final game of a four-game West Coast trip. While they opened with a win against the Clippers, the Timberwolves lost two straight to the Lakers and the Suns.
J.J. Barea, who missed Thursday night's 104-95 loss to the Suns with a strained right calf, returned and had six points in 19 minutes for Minnesota.
The Timberwolves jumped on Portland from the start, going up 20-12 on Love's 3-pointer and extending it to 31-17 on Webster's 3.
Portland climbed back in it in the second when Aldridge's hook shot narrowed the margin to 40-36. The Blazers squeezed it to 47-46 after Wallace's jam, then took the lead with Nicolas Batum's 3-pointer.
Portland held a narrow lead until Love's 3-pointer made it 61-60 at the half.
Love hit another 3 near the end of the third quarter to put Minnesota in front 81-73. Both Aldridge and center Joel Przybilla, who was playing in his second game with the Blazers after signing with the team as a free agent last week, got into foul trouble.
Portland's 9-2 run pulled the team within 84-82 to start the fourth quarter, but it was short-lived, and Minnesota went up 99-86 on Derrick Williams' basket and free throw with 7:41 left. The Blazers never posed much of a challenge the rest of the way.
The game got chippy midway through the fourth when Williams and Wallace exchanged words.
Several Timberwolves have ties to Oregon and the Trail Blazers. Love grew up in Lake Oswego, just outside of Portland, while Luke Ridnour played for the Oregon Ducks in Eugene. Webster played five seasons for the Blazers from 2005-10.
Notes: Running back LaMichael James, who has declared for the upcoming NFL draft, was among those at the game. ... Blazers center Marcus Camby suffered a cut on his chin in the first half that required eight stitches. He returned in the second half. ... Blazers forward/center Kurt Thomas was inactive for the second straight game because of a concussion. ... The Blazers were coming off a 107-93 loss at the Rose Garden to the Miami Heat.

Party Favor Punch Wall
Celebrate the Big & Small
This interactive punch wall looks just like a strip of candy buttons. It borrows a page from The Price Is Right, where contestants have been playing Punch A Bunch since the 1970s, only Maddie's guests played for favors instead of cash prizes.
The punch wall was part of Maddie's ninth birthday party, and the candy button colors tied in perfectly with her sweets-themed party. It served triple duty as decor, activity station and favor depot. Other activities at Maddie's fête included a gumball obstacle course, lifesaver pass and pixie stick drop. See more party details at Celebrate the Big & Small, and check out the punch box tutorial here.

Idol - 28 Feb 2012
Full disclosure: This is really the first full episode I've watched this season. So I'm coming in and seeing most of these performers for the very first time (except Phillip Phillips who is WICKED CUTE!).
Reed Grimm
It was, I suppose, an interesting choice to take a pop song and re-cast it as a Jazz number. But I think it suffered terribly in the execution. Reed seemed like he might have an interesting voice, and be a decent performer, but it did not shine through in this performance. I suppose if he makes it through I could grow to like him, because he's kinda cute, but I may just stay annoyed.
Adam Brock
WTF? Is our boy Adam into getting peed on? Why the yellow bandana-thing in the right back pocket? This was a better performance than Reed, and probably worthy of making the next round, but it didn't seem particularly strong to me.
Deandre Brackensick
Wow, this started really badly. I hope it's nerves, because it was pitchy and weak and all over the place. And p.s., Justin Guarini called and wants his hair back. I guess I basically like him - he had a nice personal intro - but the performance was just awful.
SIDEBAR: Are the judges high tonight? Or is it going to be another season of "dawg, that was mad good!"? Sheesh.
Colton Dixon
Does anyone else think he's trying a little to hard to channel Jared Leto? I guess he has a cool enough look - what do you think? As for the performance, once again it was just OK to me. And once again the judges "love it". God, can we have a SINGLE contrary opinion?
Jeremy Rosado
The peanut gallery here is seriously rooting for Jeremy, so this should be interesting. I'm glad he pointed out his nerves - and I'm 100% certain that they're all absurdly nervous, so I guess we have to give them all a pass for small problems with their performances tonight. My first impression is that Jeremy is really a nice guy and I'm kinda rooting for him too. The performance was nice enough, I guess. I liked it more than the others, but I'm still not gaga. NOT gaga. :)
Aaron Marcellus
Finally, I'm hearing vocals that sound pretty good. Not pitchy. Well suited to his voice. Nicely delivered. And his personal video depicted him as pretty nice. Aaron should make it to the next round pretty easily, I'd think. As far as the judges go, apparently the only differentiator tonight (and the rest of the season, I bet...) is the standing-o.
Chase Likens
Another good song selection. Did the producers rig the order? It will be interesting to see how the other guys do. Country isn't always my favorite, but this is a good performance of this song. Maybe a hair pitchy here or there, but overall good selection and good performance. And he seems like a nice (that is, cute) guy.
Creighton Fraker
What an odd-seeming person. Maybe my comment from the last contestant about stacking the deck was wrong? But now that he's started, his voice is sounding pretty good, actually. Absolutely on key, which is a nice change.
I don't know if I can stand to watch him every week, but it was actually a nice performance.
Phillip Phillips
My early favorite. Cute cute cute! And he always seems to do interesting arrangements of the songs he chooses. I think it's been cool so far, but I wonder if it could be his undoing. For example, this arrangement of "In the Air Tonight" started strangely to me - I think it evolved into something very cool. I guess if he can continue to do that, it could be great for him. And if he'd take off his shirt, he'd be there.
Oh, and WTF? Was that a criticism from Randy? Or
a criticism? Interesting...
Eben Franckewitz
OMG. I didn't know this season was open to pre-pubescent children! The song choice was certainly ambitious - Adele, wow. And it was a reasonbly good delivery, there were only a few pitchy spots, I thought. And his voice has a very nice tone to it. I'm not sure he'll make the top 6, however. And was that more criticism from the judges? Maybe they're getting into the groove too.
Heejun Han
This is one quirky little dude, but I liked his home video. And his voice seems like such a contrast to the rest of him - I love that. I think that may be one of the best traditional performances of the night, honestly. I say "traditional" because I think Phillip's was decidedly non-traditional, but it was fabulous. On Heejun, I agree with J-Lo: Heejun's voice is smooth as silk.
Joshy here is number 12. I guess there's going to be a number 13? I'm still interested to see if "water skier boy" (that's what I call him) is going to make it.
Josh Ledet
Anyway, on to Josh. Great start on this song for Josh, I think. He seems to have a really nice range, and a great tone to his voice. And wow! That was quite a finish. Another standing-o from the judges. I guess they like him.
I think he'll make it through.
Jermaine Jones
Well, I'm sorry it wasn't the cute water skier boy, but the peanut gallery here doesn't seem to care. And I confess, Jermaine sounds really good. I don't know if he'll make it through, but I like him - and I LOVED seeing him tower over the little douchebag.
So there we have it. Who do I think will make it? And maybe this is more my wish list than my prediction list:
Phillip Phillips
Jeremy Rosado
Aaron Marcellus
Creighton Fraker
Heejun Han
Joshue Ledet
Jermaine Jones
OK, I cheated and left seven on my list. That's just the way it is.
So who do you think will make it?
Oh. TLD (the little douchebag) just said *5* people are voted through. I guess I remember him chirping something about that at the beginning, but does anyone really pay attention to him?

American Idol!
I'm going to try to watch American Idol this season - I really just couldn't bear it last season.
And my blogger-in-crime Joosee will be blogging about AI with me. I'm sure there will be more than one argument on these pages...
So shortly I'll be posting my notes from last night, and I hope Joosee will have his ready soon. Of course, it may be that you have to deal with my notes only for last night.
Stay tuned!
P.S. I've been spending 95% of my time lately searching for new employment. Who knew that interviewing for a job was so hard? For various reasons, it's been quite some time since I had to do so. But I'm hopeful that the search process is nearing its end and my posting will, I hope, return to normal levels. I do have a zesty item or two to post soon.

Meggan was born and raised right here in South Mississippi. She grew up in Gulfport, and attended Westminster Academy before going to St. John High School. Now Meggan co-anchors Good Morning Mississippi from 4:30 a.m. to 7 a.m. with Rhonda Weidner and Tommy Richards.
Meggan began her career in broadcasting right here at WLOX. She came to the station in 2003, after graduating Magna Cum Laude from Auburn University with a degree in Mass Communication with emphasis on Radio, Television, and Film. She started out as a morning tape editor at WLOX, but soon became a producer in the newsroom. Meggan had the pleasure of producing WLOX's 4 O'clock Show for several years. She says that was a joy because she got to meet so many unique people every day.
"Each day was a mystery; I loved it! That show always kept me on my toes, and I absolutely loved working with David and Karen."
Meggan's first time in front of the camera was in the Summer of 2005, when she started doing live shots for Good Morning Mississippi. She became a full time reporter for WLOX in the Fall of 2006, and was reunited with the Good Morning Mississippi team as a co-anchor in January of 2007. Meggan says she loves being a part of the show she remembers so well growing up.
Meggan is also thrilled to be working in her hometown community. She's always loved South Mississippi for its people, diverse culture, and beautiful coastal views. Her parents are also a big part of the community; they've owned and operated their own business in Gulfport for nearly 30 years. She has one sister, who also lives in Gulfport.
Meggan married her college sweetheart, John, who is an architect with a Biloxi firm. They have two children, Austin and Avery.
Oh, and by the way -- Meggan loves to sing! She loves musical theatre and has performed in many local theater productions. You may remember her as Maria in KNS' "The Sound of Music" in 2008, and she is an annual performer with the American Heart Association's "Sounds of the Holidays" performance.
Meggan is also very active in the community. She's a graduate of the Leadership Gulf Coast program, and serves on boards for the Boys and Girls Club Greater Gulfport Unit and Gulf Coast Health Educators. She is also an active member of Junior Auxiliary in Gulfport.
You can e-mail Meggan at firstname.lastname@example.com, friend her on Facebook, or follow her on Twitter @MegganGray.

Automated Tweets: Effective or Impersonal?
In Wednesday's daily, I talked to local PR sources about Twitter. One of the questions I asked was if they felt automated tweets were effective.
Just revert back to May 1, the day President Obama announced the U.S. had captured and killed Osama bin Laden. Although it was first broadcasted on TV, I personally – and I'm sure thousands of others – first learned the news via Twitter.
What I also found intertwined with the trending topic was random, automated tweets from various companies. Those companies stuck out like a sore thumb amid a national phenomenon.
So in order to save you from looking silly on Twitter, here's some insight that didn't make it into my article but are great words of wisdom nonetheless:
"If you're driving a contest or teasing the audience to look for a big announcement I can see how using an automated service like Hoot Suite would suffice, but in the end I feel like you're doing your circles a disservice," said Cynthia Saatkamp, partner with Hemline Creative Marketing LLC. "Twitter is a tool, one of many in an organization's toolbox that they can use to reach, reward and reaffirm customers. If a company says they don't have time, they had best find the time or their competition surely will. I would rather an organization field a strong social media strategy and really set out to do something different, than to just get on Twitter because everyone else is there. You can see straight through those kinds of tweets."
Natashia Gregoire, public relations account director with archer>malmo, echoed Saatkamp's philosophy, adding that customers who are seeking engagement might be turned off by such one-sided communication.
"Twitter is about having a conversation and scheduling tweets does not allow you to take into consideration what others are saying," said. "Instead of automatic tweets, develop an editorial calendar for Twitter with your team. This will give you an idea of the topics to cover each month, but will also allow you to craft these points according to what's happening around you."
[...] more on the topic in a follow-up blog post I did here. Share and [...]

Court clerk
A court clerk (English English clerk to the court; American English clerk of the court or clerk of court) is an officer of the court whose responsibilities include maintaining the records of a court. Another duty is to administer oaths to witnesses, jurors, and grand jurors. The clerk also was the custodian of the court's seal, which is used to authenticate copies of the court's orders, judgments and other records.
In common law jurisdictions, the existence of the office of a clerk is one of the typical criteria distinguishing a court of record.
The clerk may be more precisely titled after the (type of) court, e.g. clerk of the peace attending to a justice of the peace, clerk of the police court, etc. On Guernsey, the medieval French term greffe is used (in the magistrates' court).
In courts without a clerk, or if there is no specific officer otherwise available, the judge may have authority to act as clerk of the court, as sometimes in a short-staffed probate court.
United States[edit]
In the federal court system, each district court, court of appeals, and bankruptcy court, as well as the Supreme Court, has its own clerk, appointed by the judges of the court. The clerk is the custodian of the court's records and also has responsibility for collecting fees and other deposits of money made with the court.
England and Wales[edit]
In the magistrates' courts of England and Wales, where the bench will usually have no legal qualifications, the Court Clerk will be legally qualified. The magistrates decide on the facts at issue; the clerk advises them on the law relating to the case.[1]

Researchers at Northwestern University developed a guide that helps parents and doctors determine when a tantrum is just part of toddlerhood, or if it is a sign of a behavioral problem.
They surveyed the parents of more than 1,500 preschoolers, and found most tantrums happen when a child is tired or frustrated, or during mealtime and bedtime.
They also found less than ten percent of children have a daily tantrum.
Children who have tantrums "out of the blue," or are so upset they become exhausted, may need to be evaluated.

My article on the delights of rotted amaranth stalks and other Shaoxing specialities is now on the Financial Times website here – it was originally published in their international edition. It's one of my favourite pieces, and brings back happy memories of Shaoxing and its many gastronomic surprises. (It's a kind of sister piece to the article about the cheese-tasting in Shaoxing for which I won my James Beard Award.) The following are a few photographs of the delicacies mentioned in the piece:

|I definitely agree with you about the importance of role models. I shudder to think where I'd be today had I not had a strong female role model to emulate. Thanks for sharing your story. Keep it up! :)

role models
2007-09-09 10:15:06 ardief [View]
As well as role models being important in the 'traditional' sense, i.e. as having someone else who 'got there' before you, I think having more women around is good in general for your workplace - you can share issues and fears with them in ways you can't always with older/more senior male colleagues. I'm finishing up a PhD in CS and I'm the only girl in my group. I'm trying to work out what to do next and though people are always happy to chat about it, they're not always good at understanding my worries about family, children, etc....This is just to give a simple example.

"You are recreating the very racism this art is supposed to critique," I yelled. The visitors lowered their cameras. Just seconds ago, they had been aiming their lenses at the sculpture of a 40-foot tall, nude black female sphinx. Many posed under its ass; some laughed and pointed at its vulva. As I watched their joking, my thoughts spun and I walked into the crowd, turned to face them and began yelling.
It wasn't my rage, it was our rage. Since May, gentrified Brooklyn buzzed with talk of the new Kara Walker exhibit, a giant sculpture of a Mammy sphinx at the derelict Domino Sugar Factory. On the Internet, one could see it was the size of a house, with full African lips and a flat nose, a doo-rag knotted on its forehead. Officially titled "a Subtlety," it received glowing reviews on NPR's All Things Considered and the New York Times. I was curious but also felt a low alarm going off in the back of my head. In early June, I went to the exhibit. The anxiety increased when I saw the factory — in line, nearly everyone was white. The alarm rang louder.
