I recently published The Rory Marinich Experience and it's available in Barnes and Noble and Amazon. Would it be okay if I posted about this incredible novel on the blue? I know it's a self-link but I feel this one might be different. Plus, rave reviews from Stephen King and Nietzsche's great-granddaughter! Let me know mods.posted by Rory Marinich at 10:02 AM on January 5, 2011 [4 favorites]
Agreed. And further I have to say I'm bothered by the in-club our-team-kicked-ass chest-thumping of many comments in this thread.A writer with a flair for ironic self-promotion created a sockpuppet account on a high-traffic web site, posted about a new project while pretending to be a neutral observer, commented about how much he loved his own work, and was caught. Then banned.
Some people have been claiming this incident made it a banner day for MeFi and they've never been prouder, etc., but honestly the reactions here have saddened me. And before the usual wags chime in, I'm NOT a Tao Lin sockpuppet either, nor do I know him - though I have myself written and published unusual and experimental writing.
I'm a little surprised to see very little pushback against the notion that Metafilter is a slightly hostile place to postmodern and comtemporary art ideas.I don't think it's particularly hostile to those ideas in and of themselves, but the collective vibe here on MeFi is "wankers gonna wank," and it's easy to mistake a lot of postmodernism and contemporary art as self indulgent wanking.
It sounds to me like you're completely on board with what is so awesome about contemporary art.Well... I'd call it what is unique about contemporary art. I wouldn't necessarily call it awesome. ;-)
Cage, as an artist, sees the artist's job as providing some sort of structure to what already exists in the world, whether it's arranging pigments on a canvas or varying pressure densities in the air around you.I suppose that if you fully embrace the idea that "art is intention" that's true. Twilight is art, and a blank white sheet of paper tacked to the job board is art, and Paint It Black is art, and so on. There's no such thing as good or bad art, simply "art that people don't respond to" and "art that generates a reaction that can be observed."
Somebody on MetaFilter (I think) said it very well and I'm going to plagiarize them: What matters today isn't whether or not something is art. Because everything is. So all that matters is whether something is GOOD art, where by "good" I can mean a number of things from "interesting" to "fun" to "made me have a conversation I wouldn't otherwise have" to "made me hug my friends".Right, and I'm not making the argument that, say, Tao Lin's work isn't "art" -- rather I'm arguing that if someone wants to argue that art is everywhere and everything, that the act of living is art, and so on... well, there's no reason to defend "The Artist" as a class worthy of special consideration. It's just a person doing what everyone else does who happens to have successfully marketed his or her ripple-effects as desirable.
The idea of postmodernism (in my mind) is that we stop asking what's art and what's not.That's fine as long as we stop funding, promoting, or educating about it as well. That's the "wanting it both ways" thing that I was talking about. Friends of mine who went to art school and love the idea that everything is art also get outraged by funding cuts for The Arts. I'm not sure how they can resolve the two, honestly.
I like the idea that a part of why he's an annoying pest on the Internet is to examine why we get so easily worked up over some relatively unannoying things; we've got 350 comments now in response to one guy posting a self-link. It suggests that we're taking him more seriously than probably we should.Well, if you chart the trajectory of the thread, most of the traffic early on consisted of people who thought it was hilarious, or were amused to see a personality they didn't care for get smacked down in public. The second wave of this thread (at least as I see it) kicked in when people said that this reaction was a symptom of MetaFilter's hatred of postmodern art.
There's no reason for you to let yourself waste a minute on him unless you're convinced that he's somehow worth the time.The Twilight Novels have prompted a lot of discussion about what constitutes good YA literature, but that doesn't mean the people having those discussions automatically think Twilight is in and of itself worth the time.
I resort to it because I don't really hang my hat on the importance of being able to say the word "art" and have everybody agree with me on whatever that word means.Yeah, that's true, but one of the interesting things for me is the fact that this discussion bubbled out of that very issue. Tao Lin was taking knocks from people who don't think much of his work, and consider him something of a wanker. Others said that this was a consequence of MeFi somehow not "getting" or not appreciating Postmodern art.
In 1942, at age 19, he joined the U.S. Army Air Corps. Two years later he was sent to Italian Front, where he flew 60 combat missions as a B-25 bombardier. His Unit was the 488th Bomb Squadron, 340th Bomb Group, 12th Air Force. Heller later remembered the war as "fun in the beginning... You got the feeling that there was something glorious about it." On his return home he "felt like a hero... People think it quite remarkable that I was in combat in an airplane and I flew sixty missions even though I tell them that the missions were largely milk runs."posted by nfg at 9:44 AM on January 9, 2011 [1 favorite]

Governor's Strategic Growth Plan Approved by Legislature [1]
Bond Package Includes Separate Bonds for Transportation, Levees, Flood Control, Education, and Housing
Early Friday morning, the California State Legislature approved $37.3 billion in bonds to invest in California's crumbling infrastructure. Several of Senator George Runner's (R-Antelope Valley) legislative bills to speed up construction of schools and roads were adopted in the bond measures. "The bonds to fix our schools and roads have real reform ensuring we are not just spending tax dollars on bureaucrats pushing paper but actually using the dollars for roads and buildings," said Senator Runner. "Along with the bonds and the reforms incorporated to build roads and schools faster, we fought for a constitutional amendment to protect Prop 42 transportation funds which ensures the Legislature can not raid it in the future."
The $19.9 billion transportation bond included Runner's legislation, SB 1812 to speed up delivery time for transportation projects by eliminating the federal government's role for review, expediting federal permitting, and improving local government access to federal decision-makers. This legislation will eliminate up to 180 days or more of bureaucratic delays. The transportation bond also had a companion measure to allow for the California Transportation Commission (CTC) to approve public-private partnerships. These partnerships could include a designated truck lane to transport goods and services like the High Desert Corridor. Runner had been pushing for this as part of the 'Go California' package over the last year. The $10.4 billion education bond also included one of Runner's bills, SB 1260 that will save community colleges time and money when building facilities. The provision authorizes community colleges to use the Uniform Building Code instead of the Field Act. This legislation will bring parity to community colleges by including them with the other segments of higher education in the exemption from the Field Act. Runner continues, "We, as Republicans successfully fought hard to ensure that the bonds were to be used for "bricks and mortar" and not for social engineering projects. We were also successful in advocating key reforms that will get roads, levees and schools built faster." The Governor is expected to sign these bond measures in the next few days. Each bond will be placed on the November ballot for the voters to approve.

As cultural movements go, postmodernism enjoys a fairly dubious distinction: Despite its pivotal role in defining the playfully garish aesthetic of the late Seventies and Eighties, it remains a despised and convoluted term, seemingly slapped on any creative work that either rejected convention and commercialism or flagrantly embraced them.

iPhone Taxonomy: Will "iPhone 6″ Be How We Refer To The Next iPhone?Posted by Michael Nace on Thursday Dec 27, 2012 Under iPhone 6 Opinion
iPhone rumor mills need a keyword to mill around. But is "iPhone 6" the right choice for the next iPhone?
It may seem like a distant memory now, but do you remember all of the conjecture surrounding the name of the 2011 and 2012 iPhone releases? funny how quickly forget: the subject of iPhone taxonomy was a heated one. In 2012, there was a camp of bloggers and commenters who insisted that the sixth-generation iPhone would necessarily need to be named "iPhone 6," and that Apple would skip over the iPhone 5 in order to remain in line with the proper iterations.
While there very well may have been a corresponding camp at the Cupertino campus who felt the same way, the Apple marketing department would have none of it: as a keyword, "iPhone 5″ had way too much buzz attached to it. As a result, Apple cashed in on that keyword — and the iPhone taxonomy went out the window.
Now that Apple is clearly comfortable with mis-numbering its iPhones, it may not seem like much fun to ruminate on what the next iPhone will be called. But an iPhone's name still clearly means something. as a result, we need to figure out what we're going to refer to the 2013 iPhone as, since what we call it helps to frame the discussion.
It's never easy to discern patterns with Apple, since they are always changing things up on us. However, it appears that a pattern has begun to develop with iPhone releases that delineate between "refreshed" and "overhauled" iterations. As far back as the 3G, the 3GS was a clear refresh. The iPhone 4 heralded a completely new design — thus substantiating a new number — followed by refreshed 4S in 2011. The iPhone 5 established the pattern: yet another new number introduced a new, overhauled design.
With this pattern in mind, is there any chance that the iPhone 6 could debut in 2013?
Anything is possible with Apple. But considering that five separate iPhone models have helped to define this distinct pattern, I find it unlikely that Apple will throw out the iPhone 5′s design in place of an overhauled iPhone 6 in 2013: they clearly look to get more mileage from their new designs than that. A refreshed iPhone 5S makes more sense.
But while it makes more sense, is "iPhone 5S" going to be how we discuss the 2013 iPhone, or "iPhone 6?"
If it were up to me, I'd set the discussion around "iPhone 5S" — not "iPhone 6." alas, it isn't up to me — or any one blogger, for that matter. In a strange, inexplicable way, the keywords we choose seem to evolve organically, collectively. A quick look at Google's AdWords keyword research tool reveals that "iPhone 6″ currently garners eight times the amount of global monthly search traffic than "iPhone 5S:"
So, in spite of the clear pattern, "iPhone 6″ is still the keyword of choice for most people out there who want to read up on Apple's 2013 iPhone release. The only question that remains is this: when the iPhone 5S is released in 2013, will consumers be as surprised as they were in 2011 with the iPhone 4S?

Spartanburg, S.C. -
Coming off a 2-0 victory at Presbyterian Friday night, the USC Upstate men's soccer team returns to action Monday night at 7:00 in a Labor Day special when it hosts Southern Wesleyan in a non-conference matchup at County University Soccer Stadium.
Upstate enters the match with a 1-1-0 record. It lost its home opener, 2-1, to Wofford last Monday, but rebounded to take a 2-0 victory at Presbyterian Friday night. The Spartans were 1-0-1 in the preseason, claiming a 5-1 win in their scrimmage over Spartanburg Methodist and a 1-1 tie in a scrimmage against Gardner-Webb. Southern Wesleyan enters the contest having played three preseason games with Monday being its season opener. The Warriors played scrimmages against North Georgia, Anderson and Erskine.
Upstate and Southern Wesleyan have played just four times in the history of the two programs. The Spartans own a 4-0-0 lead in the all-time series over the Warriors. The teams met for the first time on Sept. 19, 1983, a 2-0 victory by Upstate. The last meeting between the two schools came on Sept. 25, 2002, a 4-0 victory by the Spartans. Upstate owns a 13-4 lead in goals throughout the series.
Fans can follow the action online in a variety of ways. Live video for a fee will be available via ASun.TV and can be accessed through www.upstatespartans.com, the official Upstate Athletics website. Free live statistical updates will also be available online at upstatespartans.com, while complete game coverage with a recap and game statistics will be available shortly after the conclusion of the match.
Looking Back at Presbyterian
Dylan Hoop
, a newcomer who played his first two years of college soccer at Cincinnati State, made his presence felt on both goals to led USC Upstate to a 2-0 victory over Presbyterian Friday night at Martin Stadium in Clinton. Hoop finished the game with a goal and an assist. He assisted on the eventual game winner in the 18th-minute when he took control of the ball on the right side after a corner kick and sent it into the box.
John Kadane
won the ball out of the air and put a header into the net to give the Spartans a 1-0 lead. With PC playing a man down after a red card in the second half, Upstate pressured the Blue Hose defense and broke through with another goal in the 80th-minute.
Timo Foerster
played a pass over the defense to Hoop who ran on and placed a shot past the keeper and into the net for a 2-0 Spartan lead. Upstate held a 19-11 advantage in shots, the second-straight game it has posted more than 15 shots. The Spartans also led 9-4 in corner kicks.
Hoop-in It Up
Junior College transfer Dylan Hoop has certainly provided some positive moments early in the season for Upstate. He first made his presence felt when he scored two goals, the first and the last, in the Spartans' 5-1 victory over Spartanburg Methodist in the first scrimmage of the year for Upstate. He was simply solid again last Friday, having a say in both of Upstate's goal in the 2-0 victory over Presbyterian College. He assisted on the game-winning goal by John Kadane, then added an insurance goal in the second half to lead the Spartans to the win.
Another 1-Goal Loss
Upstate had a tough time pulling out close wins a year ago and the start of the 2011 season was no different as the Spartans took a 2-1 loss to Wofford in the season opener Monday night at County University Soccer Stadium. Last year, Upstate dropped six games by a goal.
Looking Back at the Scrimmages
Upstate opened the 2011 season with a pair of scrimmages, taking a 5-1 victory over Spartanburg Methodist and tying Gardner-Webb. The Spartans welcomed SMC to County University Soccer Stadium on Aug. 17. Seniors Timo Foerster and
Jan Wienholt
showed tremendous leadership, while newcomer Dylan Hoop came through in a big way. Foerster recorded an assist and later scored a goal, while Wienholt notched a pair of goals. Hoop, a transfer from Cincinnati State, scored two goals as well. He notched the first goal of the match and closed out the scoring as well. The Spartans held the Pioneers to just one shot over the final 60 minutes of play.
Against Gardner-Webb, Upstate scored first when
Michael Rankin-Byrne
took the ball down the left sideline and lifted a pass to
Hakeem King
in the middle of the field about 25 yards out. King moved in and lifted a shot over the charging Bulldog keeper and into the back of the net to open the scoring. Gardner-Webb would come back to tie the game in the second half and the teams played to a 90-minute, 1-1, draw.
Spartans Return Veteran Group
Heading into its fifth season playing on the NCAA Division I level and in the A-Sun, Upstate returns its most experienced team since the days of Division II. The Spartans have 13 lettermen and eight starters returning from last year's team. There are 18 upperclassmen on the squad, including nine seniors. Of the nine seniors, six see significant action, including
Jason McCabe
(goalkeeper), Timo Foerster (midfielder), Hakeem King (forward),
Colin Francis
(midfielder), Jan Wienholt (midfielder) and
Chris McCoy
Upstate also returns much of its scoring from a year ago. While leading scorer Maurice Beggs (8 points) exhausted his eligibility, seven of the top 10 scorers from a year ago have returned for 2010. Foerster led the Spartans and ranked sixth in the A-Sun with six assists as the team's second leading scorer. King was the third-leading scorer with four points, all on goals. McCabe totaled a 1.84 goals against average and ranked second in the A-Sun with 69 points.
Looking for Win No. 200
In a career that has been marked with tremendous success, Upstate head coach Greg Hooks is on the verge of recording win No. 200 in his 17 years at the helm of the Spartan program. Hooks took over the team in 1995 and coached the squad to the championship game of the NCAA Division II Tournament. He has posted 196 wins at Upstate, just six shy of 200. He is 17 wins short of reaching 300 in his career.
McCabe Logs the Minutes
To say that starting goalkeeper Jason McCabe logged some serious minutes in the net last year for Upstate is an understatement. The fifth-year senior in 2011 played all but 45 minutes in goal for the Spartans last season. He tallied 1,469 of Upstate's 1,514 minutes. McCabe sat out the 2009 season and received a red-shirt year.
Upstate Tops 400 Career Wins
Arguably the top program in the history of the Upstate Athletics Department, the men's soccer team has won 410 matches in its history that dates back to the inaugural season in 1980. The Spartans own a 411-164-91 record and made 10 appearances in the NCAA Division II Tournament.
Frustrating Losses in 2010
While Upstate's 1-12-3 overall record in 2010 was not stellar, it was also deceiving. The Spartans dropped six games by a single goal and another two by two goals. A break here or there could have turned the season around for the Spartans. Four of the six one-goal losses came during A-Sun play.
McCabe a Decorated Keeper
Senior goalkeeper Jason McCabe has received recognition for his play in the net during his time in an Upstate uniform. As a freshman in 2007, he was named the A-Sun Defensive Player of the Week after leading the Spartans to a sweep of Belmont and Lipscomb. Last year, he also earned Defensive Player of the Week honors from the A-Sun when he posted back-to-back shutouts in a 1-0 win over UNC Asheville and a 0-0 tie of Furman.
Upstate Strong at Home
Since opening County University Soccer Stadium with a 1-0 victory over Colorado School of Mines and former Upstate head coach and current Athletics Hall of Fame member Frank Kohlenstein in 2001, the Spartans have enjoyed playing in the friendly confines of County University Soccer Stadium. Upstate has played 94 matches in the facility and have won 60 times. The Spartans own a 60-28-7 overall record in the stadium, a record that has included hosting Peach Belt and NCAA Division II National Tournament games. Their winning percentage is .676 in 11 years in the stadium. The Spartans play seven regular season games at County University Soccer Stadium in 2011.

Building encroachments
AbstractProperty law usually reacts to encroachments with ejectment. Building encroachments differ, as restoring landowner's property claims implies the reversal of often large costs sustained by the builder. The authority faces thus the following dilemma: either it stands by the landowner and faces the social costs of undoing significant investments, or it defends the investment of the builder at the cost of neglecting landowner's claims. To address building encroachments, national property laws have deployed interestingly different remedies that range from a property rule in favor of the landowner to a property rule in favor of the builder with a variety of liability rules in between. The paper models the builder-owner conflict after the theory of optional law (Ayres, 2005), it frames different national solutions into a common analytical setting and it evaluates the different laws in their relative allocative and distributive outcomes. Moreover the paper offers support to the idea that property law may implement put-option types of remedies.

New York loves its sports heroes so what better place for Tim Tebow but the Big Apple. Alright the Christian thing doesn't quite fit in with New York but they love their larger than life figures.
The city is already reacting. The first Tebow billboard officially is in place, according to the Newark Star-Ledger. As of 12:00 p.m. Saturday, Jockey placed a billboard outside Lincoln Tunnel. Bearing a picture of Tebow's face, the billboard says, "We support Tebow & New York."
The famous Carnegie Deli in Manhattan will introduce the Jetbow sandwich on Monday, in honor of new Jets backup quarterback, Tim Tebow. The meal will be about 3.5 pounds and contain corned beef, pastrami, roast beef, American cheese, lettuce and tomato on white bread, and will be introduced Monday to coincide with Tebow's press conference.
This is New York so there is no such thing as over hyping someone.

Kidd's Letter To His Insurance Company – KKITM Best of the Day
Kidd received a letter from his insurance company about his premium. He was surprised because they were going up on his rates by $800!
Kidd received a letter from his insurance company about his premium. He was surprised because they were going up on his rates by $800!
Kidd Kraddick ran across a study that revealed that 10% of people check their cell phones during fun times in the bedroom. So the question becomes do you or have you done it? Kellie also reveals something rather too personal when the subject comes up.
Kellie had a tough time with her dress this morning and said she couldn't make her outfit look good today. She tries everything she can to improve her wardrobe choice of the dress! While trying to figure out what angle she looks the best while on camera for Dish Nation, she shows off her sexy armpits!
Kidd Kraddick in the Morning's newest bit made it's debut on the show this morning, "Make It Sexy"!
For the past 20 years Kidd Kraddick in the Morning has been taking kids that have a chronic or terminal illness on a trip along with their family to Walt Disney World in Florida.
It seems like Kidd's got a lot of problems here lately and now, according to Kidd, grasshoppers really like high places like his high rise apartment! He's got a solution though to fix the grasshopper problem and his hair problem too!
Kidd Kraddick discusses a new study that claims eating peanut butter can lead to "self exploration". What does this have to do with J-Si's son Cason? You've gotta watch this to find out!
J-Si from Kidd Kraddick in the Morning has stated, on more than one occasion, that he and his wife Kinsey have talked about their celebrity hall passes.
Kidd Kraddick in the Morning are in LA this week for their family vacation and they're staying in a really, really nice mansion and apparently making a lot of noise in the neighborhood and they neighborhood association sent Dr. Phil to go calm down the morning show.
Stars are constantly getting recognized in Hollywood and followed around by the paparazzi and getting their pictures snapped. While on the family vacation this week, Kellie and Jenna were out eating and Kellie thought she was being recognized in LA for being on Dish Nation, but what happens is truly funny!
Kidd, Kellie, Al, J-Si and Jenna are in Southern California on their family vacation this week and last night, Kidd was grillin' a steak for dinner and his life was soon in jeopardy. Thank goodness Big Al was there to save Kidd's life!
Comedian Jay Pharoah has appeared on Saturday Night Live and last week he stopped by the studio and entertained the cast members!

Ask the Car Insurance Expert
Will my insurance cover my car if an uninsured motorist wrecks my car?
It depends on what type of coverage you have. The answer is yes if you have uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage or collision coverage.
[Let Insure.com help you find affordable car insurance now.]
A single car insurance policy features several parts:
- Bodily injury and property damage liability
- Medical payments or personal injury protection (PIP)
- Collision
- Comprehensive
- Uninsured/underinsured motorist
- Extras, such as roadside assistance
Every state except New Hampshire requires drivers to carry liability coverage to pay for damage and injuries they cause others, and even New Hampshire has financial responsibility laws requiring drivers to have enough assets to pay for damages if they cause an accident and don't have car insurance.
However, as you know, not everyone follows the law. The Insurance Research Council estimated that roughly one in six drivers – about 16 percent of the population -- were uninsured last year.
This is why it's prudent to carry uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage as part of your car insurance policy. This coverage kicks in if damages exceed the liability limits of an underinsured motorist who wrecks your car or if you're hit by someone without insurance.
If you didn't have uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage, collision coverage would pay for fixing your car. Collision coverage pays for damage to your car if you cause an accident or no one is determined to be at fault. You could make a claim under this coverage if the at-fault driver in an accident is uninsured.
The other portions of an auto insurance policy would not apply in this case. Comprehensive coverage pays for damage to your vehicle caused by something other than an accident, such as theft, vandalism, natural disaster or collision with an animal. Medical payments coverage pays for medical expenses you and your passengers suffer in an accident. PIP, on the other hand, pays for medical expenses and lost wages for you and your passengers who are injured in an accident.
What if you don't have collision or uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage?
Then your only option would be to sue the other driver. Whether that driver would have enough assets to pay for your car, though, is an open question.
For more, see the benefits of uninsured/underinsured motorist insurance.

Do you think Genetically Modified food (GM) is morally justifiable? How about the "Industrialisation" of food production?
We covered artificial selection today in Biology, and it got me thinking about the ethics of production. Animals like the Belgian blue cow are bred solely for their consumption as beef.
Expanding the topic, is it right to manufacture animals for food as we do in, say, battery farms?

Sandra LozesMar 6 2012: Tara,
I agree that if we knew where our food came from, it would change the way we eat. I stopped eating beef and pork 9 years ago. Considering I was a self proclaimed carnivore, and a large part of my diet consisted of pork and beef, I thought the change would be difficult. However, I had recently read about factory farming, and what that entailed, along with what ground beef could consist of and it changed my constitution for eating or wanting to eat meat. So now, almost a decade later I eat only free range poultry and fish (of the small variety). I can't tell you the amount of push back I received from people for the longest time. I live in Texas! I dont usually mention my dietary change because I'm not trying to advocate or make my choice an imposition to my mammal eating family and friends, but since the topic is about GM foods, and
Factory farming is a system that is far from a natural life course for the animals it seems lie an appropriate place to share here.
On Western diseases and money awarded to research...it comes down to putting a value on the population being treated and the profitability from certain procedures, drug development, etc. Is it morally justifiable? I think not, for the many people left without treatment and the approach to disease in the first place. We have a political system driven by interest groups that prefer to continue to treat disease that can be quelled more effectively by changing how our foods are produced, and making real foods available to everyone in all grocery stores nationwide. Instead, we skip the source and look for ways to treat the effects, and that is our most costly challenge for the health of western societies and the costs that are not sustainable in the healthcare arena.
Why didn't my grandparents didn't take an arsenal of pharmaceuticals? I suspect diet played a role.

What business models are outdated and what are the alternatives?
One example to begin with:
"SOPA & PIPA are not about copyright. It is about protecting a dying business model. (...)
This isn't about stealing for the movie industry bigwigs and their high priced lobbyists. It's about desperately trying to maintain the old familiar business model that afforded them a lifestyle of Armani suits, lunch at Nobu and limos. It didn't work for music and its not going to work for movies."

Jan 29 2012: Uday, the only method I can think for indirect remuneration is a benevolent fund.
The benevolent fund is financed by those who recognise the value of creative activity. THis could be individual benefactors, companies or governments.
The creative would be able to claim on the benevolent fund based on the time spent realising an idea and on the subscription (the number of copies made). Obviously, there is an entry barrier to the creative, because he/she has expended the effort - what sustained him/her during that time?
I can see such a model working for matters currently covered by copyright (intellectual products that do not lead to actual food/shelter/water/security)
But for intellectual products that lead to toolmaking (technology), the remuneration model might have to assess the potential value of the tool (things like methods, techiques and actual tool design).
The conduct of such a fund would have to be absolutely open to scrutiny - with an open method for setting remuneration metrics against true value - keeping in mind that no one can eat a song .. and yet the singer must eat .. real physical items are consumed by artists now, there must be enough abundance to allow that .. it is already demonstrated.

The pictures came out really well, even though they were not all the advised kind. This is the second time I have bought a drinking container with pictures on it from personalization.com. Thank you! I love these products. I did not rate 5 stars bc it is a gift that I have not given yet and I do not know about the functionality of the water bottle. Thanks

The tumbler has such a small opening that it is even hard to get crushed ice into it to keep the drink cold. The photos I chose to have put on it do not wrap around the tumbler, therefore, a good portion of it has no photos on it. The photos did come out good in quality. I will probably not use this very often. I am very disappointed.

I would rate it 3.5 if I could. Quality is what concerns me. It says aluminum, which I did not notice so I was surprised by the golden interior. It says lead-free and BPA-free so I feel better after reading that. The spout is not the typical push up and down. It is always open. You will need the cap for it to not spill (or use other cap). The bottle seems painted on and at parts where it is scratched, you can see the gray aluminum underneath. The images came out quite nice. I like the alternative screw-off cap. The gift is for my mother. I haven't given it to her yet but I know she will love the photos on her water bottle. She uses water bottle all the time. Overall, I love the personalization of it but quality is my main concern because my mother's health is the utmost important to me.
very cheap bottle
(Troy, MI) - May 9, 2011
This was a last minute Mother's Day gift that I was actually a little embarassed to give. The bottle is very, very cheap and lightweight. The lid was difficult to screw on b/c it wasn't threaded properly. While my pics turned out well, the finished product looked very bland and generic on the white background.
Great look
(Odenton, MD) - December 11, 2011
My photos really showed up well on the water bottle. The bottle itself wasn't quite as I expected but it is fine.
(Las Vegas, NV) - September 6, 2011
I ordered this for my 3yr old daughter's preschool water bottle. I am very satisfied with the picture quality and it's a great personalized item for her to see pics of her family & easily identified as her bottle. I do wish the photos were larger or you could add more photos to spread out over the entire bottle vs. just the one side. The other suggestion would be to have the option to add print on the other side & include a name/text. Aside from that, it's an adorable bottle & my daughter loves it!
Nice gift

Overall the bottle came out really nice. The pictures are a little grainy even though the originals were not. I wish the pictures wrapped around the entire bottle instead of just being on one side. Good gift overall.

Nice item, just would be nice if the back side wasn't so plain. If a person could have a last name or initials etc. put on the opposite of the pics maybe in a vertical position. Just a thought. Overall very happy with the item.
A person will definitely know it's their bottle with the pics. But a team name or persons name would help make it more identifiable, we wrote it on in permanent ink, but just isn't the same

exactly what was advertised
(Fairport, NY) - December 27, 2011
The bottle arrived exactly as advertised. The pictures were easy to download. They did lose a little bit of quality, but not too bad. Just wish there was a BPA Free symbol on it as the question arose. Good stuff!

I purchased this as one of the 1st Father's Day presents for my husband. He travels for work and loves that he can have pictures of our daughter with him on something he uses all the time. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that it doesn't have an option for a message. Otherwise the quality of the pictures and the bottle itself were excellent.

Pictures look beautiful...but drinking out of top is messy...constantly drips on you from around bottom of spout, and hard to get fluid through top of spout. Also, mouth of bottle is too small to fit ice cubes through.

This is a nice gift for a grandparent or parent, etc. The reason I gave it 3 stars is because the pictures are not bright and vivid and they don't wrap around the bottle - more on one side like the picture shows - so it doesn't feel esthetically balanced when you look at it. Also, there was a quality issue with ours - the pictures on the far left had some white ghost like marks on them - one of which was about a quarter inch white bar going through the forehead of our newborn daughter. I am sure when I call they will reprint for us.

I was, like others, disappointed that the pictures did not go all the way around the bottle. The area that has nothing looks unfinished. I would not order another one for that reason.
Nice bottle but the lid doesn't work!

The stainless steel bottle is nice but half the reason I picked this bottle for a gift was for the sip lid. Well needless to say, the lid was crappy and you are unable to get water out of it unless you put your mouth around the entire white part and even than its not large amount of water...it trickles in. I was really disappointed with this product.
Not very high quality
(gaithersburg, MD) - February 18, 2012
I was expecting more for the price. The water bottle is very thin and the picture quality is decent.
Buy something else
(Chicago, IL) - December 24, 2012
This was a waste. I could have bought other water bottles at other online sites to get a better overall product for a cheaper price. The pictures only cover about 3/4ths of the bottle, which means a large white strip remains blank on the bottle. It seems incomplete. I will never order this again.
Not what I expected

I was not very impressed with the water bottle. After reading the other reviews I was expecting something much more professional looking. The picture quality is not good, the colors are faded and grainy. The water bottle itself also seems cheap. On the back of the bottle they have printed their website in black ink which is very noticable considering the pictures do not go all the way around and the bottle is white. I would not purchase this bottle again.

I bought this as a late Mother's Day present for my sister. First of all, delivery was superbly quick. I received my item five days after I ordered without paying for upgraded shipping. I was happy with the results for the most part; the arrangement of the photos leaves an awkward blank spot that isnt so appealing. It would be nice if you could write something in that space. All in all a great personal gift :)

My mother carries water with her everywhere and loves to show off her Granddaughter. I decided to give her the ability to do both. She loved it so much when she received it that she cried. I love that it made her happy and that the product turned out better than expected. PersonalizationMall.com will have to get used to seeing me a lot cause I will be ordering just about all my gifts from here even a few for myself.

I have just become a teen and sometimes I feel like having sex but I don't want to because I'm not ready. I just started my menstrual cycle. I think it's just my hormones but I am not sure. I also think it's wrong to do it unless you love someone a lot or your married. Most people today in our modernized world don't have the same philosophy. Am I weird? I am really religious so if I do it, it's gonna be on my conscience. Also since protection is not always 100% I might get and STD or pregnant. I need some advice. I don't think I can handle a sex life right now.
I am 22 and was the kinda girl that always had a boyfriend, all through junior high and high school and moved in with my h.s. sweetheart. I have become single for the last year and truly enjoy it. I rarely engage in intercourse (major STD fears) but do enjoy some PG13 action. I date very often and like to try and keep it all very old fashioned. It's not a rule I've made but I don't kiss on the first date and keep 'em wanting more till at least the 4th date when they finally get a lil makeout. I was casually dating a guy for about a month and felt he was really into me. I wanted to have sex so we did and now he is MIA. My girlfriend said thats what will always happen, they'll stick around til you put out than they peace out. 2 of my guy friends said they like a lil chase but if after a month of hot dates they still don't get any action at all they move on to the next. So when do I put out? To wait or not! I know theres no general rule or cookie cutter answer here but I would like all of your personal opinions. People say just wait til the time is right but c'mon... I'm not 16 and the time is always past due and very right. Thank you for the advice as well as this excellent site! Keep up the good work!
Me and my girlfriend are virgins and are 16. We have been dating for about ten months and are getting curious about sex. She asked if I was ready and I told her I don't know because she's not sure and I'm not sure what to do. She will say that she wants to but turn around and say no. I just don't want her to lose her virginity and regret everything else that we do for the first time. I haven't even seen or touched anything yet, so I guess that leaves me some room, if I get that far without confirmation. I love her so much but I want to do it so bad. There's something stopping her and I don't know how to express myself . I guess she is scared because it might hurt and she does not know what she is doing and she doesn't want to upset me.
How will I be able to make love to my girlfriend, because we have talked about it but she didn't agree.
What should I do?
I have been with my boyfriend for a while but am shy too have sex. I just lay there without making any noises and I don't do any positions and I also make him turn off the lights so I won't see him an he won't see me. I wanna break out of my shell, he cares about me a lot but I am scared he is going to leave because there is no excitement in our sex life. I WANT him to enjoy me I care about him a lot and I don't want to lose him. I WANT to be a freak in bed and make him want to have sex with me he doesn't even wanna have sex because he says am boring. I don't wanna do anything but lay there. Thank you.
I'm very embarrassed to say that over the last year I have been very promiscuous, as in to having sex with 15 different partners. I have gotten over that phase, and I have sworn to stay celibate for at least six months. My question is whether or not it is possible for me to be tight again? Also, if it would be right for me to make a future boyfriend wait a while, before having sex with him? I mean, I gave it up to someone I just met, why would I make my 'boyfriend' wait? Please help, I feel so horrible with myself. I think that staying celibate will help me regain respect with myself, but, of course, I can never forget it.
I'm a 14 year old boy. There is this girl that really likes me and I feel the same way about her. We want to have sex, but we're both uneasy about it. What should we do?
I am 28 years old and got married four months ago. Both my husband (29 years old) and I were not virgins before marriage and had both been with two other people before we started dating each other. We made the mutual decision to abstain from intercourse until marriage for religious reasons and to be "right with God" this go around. We dated for two years by the date of our wedding. During that time we would engage in foreplay, oral sex and we enjoyed that. I always wanted to fool around more than him and I made that known while we were dating, but he would always say that it was too difficult to get that worked up and have to stop. I had to agree, so I learned to become patient.
As the relationship went on and we got engaged a year and a half in, during our six month engagement we started having less and less foreplay. As our wedding day approached I became increasingly more excited about FINALLY being able to have guilt free, passionate, fun sex. I would say things like, "I can't wait!" and "how often do you think we'll have sex?" and "We will be able to have sex anywhere in the house and anytime we want" etc. I intentionally said this to express how excited I was about having sex finally. He would respond that he was looking forward to it too but that he didn't know how often we would because he couldn't make statements about part of our relationship that didn't exist yet. He would even get uncomfortable when I would talk about orgasms, something that I've only had real success with achieving with the aid of a vibrator. So the wedding night came and there was no passion, no romance, no "making love" just sex. I thought as least he would take me out of my beautiful dress, NO he just stripped and hoped into the shower, then wanted to have sex in the shower for the first time, Not my vision of my wedding night I'd waited for for two years. The honeymoon was the same. When we do have sex it lasts about 5 min. We've never had spontaneous sex or morning sex or after a fight sex.
He says now he's just not that sexual of a person and I feel betrayed and let down that he didn't express this before we promised to spend the rest of our lives together. He has trouble getting and sometimes keeping an erection and I become frustrated when he turns me down for sex. I've heard of girls not being interested in sex, but never a guy. He just is not into spontaneous, passionate, fun, sex. I'm not even sure he knows the difference. I have had great sex in the past, the kind I can't wait for, but with my husband, it's not exciting and he doesn't even get turned on my sexy lingerie. He is not interested in going to the doctor to take something for his occasional impotence. At best we have sex once a week. I was expecting that "newlywed sex" like rabbits that everyone seems to talk about, is that just a myth? Please help!
I am 21 years old and am a virgin. I am currently single, but I had a boyfriend in high school and part of college and we never actually had sex, but did everything leading up to it. A part of me always felt like I wasn't ready to be having sex with him even though I was attracted to him. Maybe it was because I was so young then. I always thought I would wait until marriage to have sex, but I also always thought I would be getting married quite early in my life (around 22 or 23). Now I have realized that I have no desire to get married that early, but I don't want to wait until I am in my upper 20's to experience sex. I recently met a guy who I get along with quite well. We are able to communicate very easily and I also find him attractive. He is from another country and is quite experienced sexually, and we have talked about this before and about how I am a virgin. I have been having thoughts about losing my virginity to him if something were to happen between us. Right now we are friends, and not in any sort of relationship, but that doesn't bother me. I am not wanting a boyfriend right now. My question is whether losing my virginity to him (if the opportunity arose) would be a bad idea? I feel as though I could trust him with that part of myself and I feel like I would be okay with us remaining friends afterward. I have not mentioned any of this to him, as 1) I am not sure how to go about it and 2) I don't know if he is even thinking anything like this. Any thoughts, help would be appreciated!
