Morning Brew – Fri. March 1: Harmony Boucher for Tomboy, Rachel Maddow on "The Daily Show"
Good morning! It's Friday! F yeah!
Rachel Maddow hopped on over to The Daily Show last night after filming her own show, where she talked about her trip to the supreme court the day before.
In Glee news, next season will focus on the New York crew, which now includes Santana. But Ryan Murphy won't say if Brittany is headed there, or anyone else.
Not everybody will go to New York, because I think that's really unrealistic. I really like this season, and I liked going back and forth, but I would really like at one point for a huge chunk of them to stay in one location, which we'll probably do next year. We just started to talk about that.
He did post a few photos of Heather Morris on Twitter recently.
Amber Heard is wearing a long platinum blonde wig in her new film Three Days to Kill. She really looks great with any hair color.
Buzzfeed has a list of 20 Things Lesbians Are Tired of Hearing, including "How do lesbians have sex?"
Sarah Paulson talked with Interview magazine about what she knows about the next season of American Horror Story, which is to say, not too much.
I wish. I would do anything they tell me to because I trust Ryan Murphy, but I hope I have stuff to do with Jessica [Lange]. She's my favorite person to act with. The more stuff I have to do with her, the better. We did The Glass Menagerie together on Broadway in 2005. Every single person that's coming back will be a completely different character. It's another story, it has nothing to do with the previous year or anything before that. I don't know what I will be playing, but I know I will not be playing Lana Banana.
The Frisky has a great piece on 8 Androgynous Style Superstars and What You Can Learn from Them, including Sam Ronson, Janelle Monae and Grace Jones.
Porsche wants to give Portia de Rossi and Ellen DeGeneres a really nice ride for their trip to Australia coming up. What a life!
Out photographer Angela Jimenez is the subject of an audio interview at The Rumpus, and she talks about her work at the Michigan Womyns Festival and taking shots of same-sex ballroom dancers.
Christian Slater met his fiancee when he went to congratulate her on her lesbian engagement. It turns out, she was not a lesbian, nor was she engaged.
If you, like me, are a fan of Austra, you'll probably enjoy this interview with out frontwoman Katie Stelmanis did with Austinist.
Out model Harmony Boucher is the face of Tomboy, a Korean fashion line. Sold!
Jillian Michaels has some tips to stay slim, which she talked about on Dr. Oz yesterday.

We can all agree the Democrats on Obama's team were ill prepared when the question of progress over the past four years came up. Though, at first glimpse the question would seem uncomplicated but quite on the contrary. The topic of the economic crisis technically inherited by bush could be easily said as the "blame game" or "shrinking responsibility" on Obama's part. Yet accepting fault could risk the voters support, making a tight spot to move around in. Obama's did however make some progress over his four year term, including the 4.5 million job increase in only two years of his term. So of course we are better off today then we were before! We have to keep this rolling ****OBAMA 12**********

Frame Friday: Germany Vs. Argentina
World Cup fans are excited about the semi-finals match between Germany and Argentina! For fun, we decided to have a look at some frames that feature the colors of each team. Enjoy!
Root for Germany in these red and gold full-rim glasses. The floral detail on the temples gives them a wonderfully feminine look.
Keep it casual with these yellow and red plastic full-rim glasses. I love how the red and yellow come together to look like flames!
Looking for something more formal? These plastic full-rims in red with yellow/gold accents fit the bill nicely. The cat eye style is ultra-feminine and will certainly get you noticed at school, the office and while out with friends!
Argentina fans take note: These dreamy blue frames look great against a tan and will put everyone in mind of the beach! A great summer casual look.
Are any of your children Argentina fans? These sporty glasses are great looking and can take the beatings that active kids can give.
Get down to business with these stainless steel full rim glasses. This is a very conservative design, but the subtle blue accent makes these glasses a lot more interesting than if they were just plain silvertone.

Frame Friday: Cookout Looks for the 4th
As you know, 4th of July is a favorite holiday at Zenni: We love fireworks, parades and spending time with family. The best part, though, is the outdoor cookouts. Chicken, burgers, even tofu tastes better when cooked on a grill. Naturally, you'll want to look your best while hanging out around the grill, so we've selected some frames that are awesome as sunglasses:
You want a classic look? We have one for you. These full-rim, tortoise shell frames with metal temples give you a serious look while also protecting your eyes against glare. If you are looking to not shock your relatives during a family barbeque, grab these and impress everyone with your maturity.
Another classic look for men, and these are hypoallergenic, even. This means that you probably won't have to worry about these frames triggering a rash, though you'll still need to take your Claritin if being outdoors in the summer gives you the sniffles. But seriously: These are the frames to wear if you want to be taken seriously. With tinted lenses, you'll look like you work for a government agency.
If you are the type of person who oveheats easily, check out these cool blue/green frames, then go find a nice hammock under a shady tree. These frames will look great with just about every skin tone: Tan, pale or somewhere in-between. Classic styling and a solid color also allows you to wear these just about anywhere from the beach to the boardroom.
These tortoiseshell frames and gold temples offer a sleek, sophisticated look for a cookout. Plus, the smaller frames give you sun protection while letting friends and family see more of your beautiful face while catching up over a plate of food.
Hey there, glamorpuss! If you want to attract attention, you could do a lot worse than these rhinestone-studded full rim frames. Pair these with some serious red lipstick or gloss, and you'll be the talk of the cookout. They'll also look great if you decide to hit the bars later in the evening.

Advice for the First Time Glasses Wearer
You can imagine how I felt when the optometrist told me I needed glasses. I was thrilled. I'd secretly always wanted a pair. And now, instead of accessorizing with that non-prescription pair I kept in my top drawer of my dresser, I had a reason to wear glasses without feeling like a poseur.
This was the super sassy, new me. And I loved every purple bit of her.
Here's my advice for anyone looking to buy their first pair of glasses.
1. Dress for Your Face
We all have different shaped faces. There are ovals, squares, rounds and even hearts. You need to find a pair that complements your shape. And this can be trickier than it sounds.
Square-shaped faces beware. You want round or oval eyeglasses in bold or dark colors. It's best to stay away from geometric and square shapes as well as light-colored frames. You want eyeglasses that take the emphasis off your strong facial features.
Heart-shaped faces are a bit more challenging because of the broad forehead and small chin. Your best bet is glasses that help create balance. Oval and round shapes as well as light-colored frames are best as they help balance the widths of the face.
Round-shaped faces look good with wide lenses. Look for frames that draw attention to your cheekbones. It would be a pity not to show them off.
Perhaps the luckiest of them all, are the oval-shaped faces which can get away with almost anything. Stick with rectangular and square frames to be on the safe side though.
2. Dress for Comfort
Might seem like an obvious one, but it's something I overlooked when I got glasses. Remember, these are going to be on your face for the long haul. Think long hours at the office. Dinners with family. And everything in between. Ask yourself: do these frames have what it takes to be there for me when I need them most?
Consider them carefully. How do the frames feel on your face? If you feel pinching or discomfort, you can always adjust the nose pads. But bottom line, if they aren't built for comfort, the only place they'll be is in their glasses case.
3. Dress for Every Occasion
When my boss first saw my bright purple glasses, he pulled a face. He was surprised. I'd been at the same company for two years without changing so much as my haircut. I played it safe: mauve blouses, elegant pants and the occasional scarf. These glasses were my attempt at changing all that. I wanted to reinvent myself and change how people saw me. Few of my colleagues had met the fun, outgoing side of me. And I thought these glasses would do the trick.
So did it work? I got my fair share of stares. People I'd passed countless times in the corridors or had seen in the lunch room, complimented me. Some even treated me differently. A colleague I'd said maybe 10 words to, loved my glasses so much that we started having regular lunches together. We've since become good friends. As for my boss, a man with an eye for colorful art, he soon took a liking to my glasses. And I'm happy to report that I now find him much more approachable. But colorful frames may not be suitable for your workplace.
I was lucky with my choice of glasses. Remember that your glasses need to look good in any situation they may find themselves in whether it's a slinky black number or typing away at your daily 9 to 5.
Picking your first pair of glasses doesn't have to be stressful. In fact, I recommend having a little fun with it. Think of it as accessory shopping. After all, with Zenni Optical's affordable prices you can easily purchase two, three, or even four pairs to suit any occasion.

Delicate Pastels For Spring – One Look For Under $100!
Spring is in the air, so it's time to lighten things up a bit with pastels, softer fabrics and flirty sandals. We here at Zenni had a look at this season's trends and decided to put together a simple, gorgeous ensemble that's perfect for springtime . . . and all for under $100! Check out what we came up with and let us know what you think in the comments below.
Badly chosen eyewear can ruin your look before you even get started, which is why we began our spring ensemble with these adorable Zennis ($6.95). A lovely pink translucent frame picks up the pink on the dress, harmonizing with the lighter colors of a spring look while also drawing attention to your beautiful eyes.
The next element of this look is a simple shift dress that offers a study in contrasts: Warm pastels take on new life in a bold Aztec-themed print. The result is Southwest glam that isn't too heavy-handed.
In addition, the shape of this dress makes it an incredibly versatile piece: While the skirt is a little short for work, you can still wear this on your days off with a baby-blue cardigan for shopping and strolling around town. Even better, this Tribal Print Zip Back Shift Dress from Body Central will only set you back $24.98 . . . a serious steal.
These gladiator sandals, only $24.00 from Maurices, rock this look without overwhelming the dress. Pastels can sometimes be tricky to match, so your best bet is either an exact match or a pale/light neutral. These sandals kick things up a notch with gold metallic studs.
Bonus: In addition to being incredibly cute, the flat heel and straps gives the whole outfit a decidedly beach-y look, even if you are strolling down a city street.
Lest you think that this outfit is getting a bit too casual, our stylist comes to the rescue with this adorable, but quite proper, clutch in pale pink with beige trim. At only $27 from Dorothy Perkins, the bag even has a zippered pocket for your wallet (a good thing, considering the money you're going to save on this outfit) and a pouch for your cell.

Jazz Appreciation Month – These Artists 'Got Their Glasses On!'
In jazz slang, to say you've "got your glasses on" means you're acting a little snooty.
But we think that expression's jive, man, because we're all about people getting their glasses on. After all, some of the coolest cats who ever blew an axe literally got their glasses on.
Don't have a cow, man. We know Simpsons character Bleeding Gums Murphy wasn't an actual jazz great. But plenty of real-life jazz musicians sported some pretty rad rims.
So in honor of April's designation as Jazz Appreciation Month (with the appropriate acronym JAM), we're taking a look at some of the baddest daddies (and a couple of fine ladies) of jazz who definitely got their glasses on – in a good way.
Composer, lyricist, and ragtime pianist Eubie Blake was one of the fathers of jazz.
Blake and his partner, singer-songwriter Noble Sissle, wrote the 1921 Broadway musical Shuffle Along, one of the first written and directed by African Americans. That show gave the world the standard "I'm Just Wild About Harry." Blake was just wild about horn-rim, wayfarer-style glasses. Check out similar Zenni frame 220421.
Clarinetist and bandleader Benny Goodman's 1938 concert at New York's Carnegie Hall was considered jazz's coming-out party, and as such, one of the most important performances in jazz history.
The concert climaxed with the immortal "Sing, Sing, Sing," featuring Lionel Hampton (left) on vibraphone, Gene Krupa on drums and Harry James (not pictured) on trumpet.
A big part of Goodman's image is his rimless eyeglasses.
Goodman's frame is similar to Zenni's frame 322111, shown with lens shape 232.
If you want to copy Goodman's style, go with lens shape 224.
Thelonious Monk was one of the first modern-jazz, bebop artists.
He was notable for a percussive style of piano improvisation with abrupt starts and stops. Monk first gained attention performing with Charlie "Bird" Parker and Dizzy Gillespie at Minton's Playhouse in Harlem, where he was the house pianist.
Monk's popularity took off when the Thelonious Monk Quartet played the Five Spot Café in New York, in 1957. Along with Monk on piano, the quartet included (from left) John Coltrane on sax, Shadow Wilson on drums, and Ahmed Abdul-Malik on bass.
Whether it's " 'Round Midnight," or any time of the day, Monk looks great in his glasses. You'll look just as cool in Zenni frame 690111.
Or, to get the Monk look in non-prescription sunglasses, go with Zenni frame A10120421.
Ella Fitzgerald was known as both the "First Lady of Song" and the "Queen of Jazz."
She was the first African-American woman to win a Grammy, at the first Grammy Awards ceremony, in 1959. She actually won two Grammys that night, Best Female Vocal Performance for Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Irving Berlin Songbook, and Best Jazz Performance for Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Duke Ellington Songbook.
She went on to win 11 more Grammys. Her live version of "Mack the Knife," recorded in 1960, is one of the landmark jazz performances captured on record.
Although she didn't wear glasses in performance as a young jazz singer, Fitzgerald wore them in later years.
Her oversize, ornamented, full-rim style is similar to these Zenni frames (click on the images to see their specs!):
It's notable that several of these landmark performances are in the late 1950s and early '60s. In jazz, 1959 is considered the art form's peak year, similar to the way film buffs consider 1939 the greatest year in movie history.
You've probably seen those three 1939 movies, which are so famous they need no identification. They are just a few of the many movie masterpieces that year.
Now let's look at some classic jazz albums that were released in 1959:
Of the jazz greats behind these albums, only bandleaders Dave Brubeck and Miles Davis were frequently seen in glasses.
Check out Brubeck (at the piano) with his quartet (from left, alto sax player Paul Desmond, bassist Eugene Wright, and drummer Joe Morello), all of whom are wearing glasses.
We love the Take Five cut "Blue Rondo à la Turk," and the title track, which is so recognizable and popular it could almost serve as jazz's theme song, although some would argue that John Coltrane's version of Rodgers and Hammerstein's "My Favorite Things" deserves that distinction.
As much as we love both recordings, we're going to go with Brubeck, if only because he and his bandmates all wore glasses.
Brubeck's signature frame is not unlike Eubie Blake's wayfarer-style horn-rims, but let's mix it up a bit (you didn't think we were going to say "jazz it up," did you?) with a rich-looking, brown wayfarer-style frame from Zenni, model 820415.
Desmond's glasses are similar to Zenni frame 614212.
Wright is wearing a pair of classic brow line glasses, not unlike Zenni frame 535021.
Morello's glasses, with a straight-line bridge, are similar to Zenni's Christmastime tortoiseshell frame 624725.
Trumpeter Miles Davis's Kind of Blue brought a new form of improvisation to jazz, using the songs' scales rather than chords for his riffs. His 1960 album, Sketches of Spain, is just as revered as Kind of Blue, but we're also extremely fond of a less heralded 1959 album by Davis and Gil Evans, their jazz version of Porgy and Bess, by George Gershwin (music), DuBose Heyward (libretto and lyrics), and Ira Gershwin (lyrics).
When he started wearing glasses, Davis favored oversized frames, like these aviators.
Davis's frame calls and Zenni responds, with similar frame 579721.
When you think of images of one of Davis's modern-jazz forebears, Dizzy Gillespie, you probably think of two balloon-like cheeks rather than two round eyeglass lenses. But in his early years, the man credited by many as the originator of bebop, also known as modern jazz, wore round, full-rim specs that set off his not-yet "moon cheeks".
Pop on similar Zenni frame 6290015, and start blowin'!
If Thenlonious Monk and Miles Davis are bebop, and Benny Goodman is "prebop," then Herbie Hancock could be considered "post bop."
Hancock is a true crossover jazz-fusion artist, bringing synthesizers, funk, soul, and modern classical music to his improvisations. His 2007 tribute album to occasional jazz artist Joni Mitchell, River: The Joni Letters, won two Grammys, for Best Contemporary Jazz Album and Album of the Year.
The full-rim, rectangular metal frames shown in his picture and on the album cover are not unlike Zenni's frame 650312 (in gray) and 650315 (in brown).
Trumpeter Wynton Marsalis is the first jazz artist to win the Pulitzer Prize for music.
A prodigy who was performing in church by age 8, Marsalis won the Pulitzer in 1997 for Blood on the Fields, an oratorio about a couple moving from slavery to freedom.
With his participation in various PBS programs, including Marsalis on Music and Ken Burns's Jazz, his several books on jazz, and his artistic directorship of Jazz at Lincoln Center, Marsalis has become the leading ambassador of jazz.
The full-rim rectangular metal frame he's wearing in his picture is similar to Zenni's frames 552415 (brown) or 552421 (black).
Finally, sultry Canadian singer-pianist Diana Krall (shown with bassist Ben Wolfe) is one of the few ladies of jazz who doesn't mind performing in eyeglasses.
That may be because she is married to Elvis Costello, whose glasses are an indelible part of his appearance.
Krall's tinted full-rim rectangular glasses are similar Zenni's frame 228721.
Costello's are close to Zenni's frame 638821.
Now you've got some crazy chops to break it down and find some gone frames in the mix. And that is all that jazz – in eyeglasses.

The Brubeck Brothers are the actual brother duo of bassist/trombonist/pianist Chris Brubeck and drummer Dan Brubeck, both sons of famous jazz pianist Dave Brubeck. Having performed with their father from an early age, the pair released their first album, See How It Feels, in 1972. Although they are the featured performers in their group, the Brubeck Brothers are most often a quartet and have showcased the talents of guitarist Mike DeMicco, organist Pete Levin, and pianist Taylor Eigsti, among others. Since their debut, the Brubeck Brothers have released two additional albums, including Second Nature (2000), Intuition (2006) and Classified released in 2008.

Far from considering it an attack on Islam, Jordanians see wisdom in burqa bans.
AMMAN, Jordan — As European country after European country banned Muslims from wearing the burqa, niqab or other Islamic clothing that covers a woman's face completely, several Arab nations stood quietly by.
Few, if any, Arabs support such bans and the prohibitions raise questions among them about anti-Muslim sentiment in the West. However, many people in Jordan can at least understand where European countries are coming from, especially regarding security concerns.
In most cases, European politicians in support of banning complete facial covering avoided making religious arguments, instead arguing that clothing of any kind that hid a person's face constituted a security threat.
"It's understandable why some countries are not too happy with the niqab because it does not reveal the true identity of a person, the face of a person. Now whether this should be introduced as a law or not, I'm not sure," said Moneef Zou'bi, director general of the Islamic World Academy of Science in Amman. "I think it's a matter of choice at the end of the day."
In France, the most recent country to ban the niqab and burqa, Jean-François Cope, the majority leader of the French National Assembly, went so far as to compare the niqab to a ski mask in an editorial piece published in The New York Times in which he defended the law.
"The visibility of the face in the public sphere has always been a public safety requirement. It was so obvious that until now it did not need to be enshrined in law," he wrote. "But the increase in women wearing the niqab, like that of the ski mask favored by criminals, changes that. We must therefore adjust our law, without waiting for the phenomenon to spread."
Though accepted by most Arabs, the niqab and burqa are still relatively uncommon outside the Arabian Gulf. Most Arab women tend to view such coverings as too extreme or unnecessary.
In Jordan, where only a handful of women wear such clothing, police have noted a sharp increase in the amount of crime committed by people, sometimes even men, wearing the niqab as a disguise. The number of criminals apprehended while wearing such Islamic dress climbed from a combined total of 170 in 2007 and 2008 to 104 in 2009 alone, according to police officials. Though there were a few cases of homicide, most of the incidents involved theft or other petty crimes.
Still few Jordanians are ready to jump to the conclusions of right-wing European politicians or take legal action against the facial covering.

What, asks Christopher Booker, in his column today, links the Copenhagen conference with the steelworks closing in Redcar?
The connection is Dr Rajendra Pachauri, the Indian
railway engineer millionaire businessman, who also happens to be the chairman of the UN's IPCC, which is holding its slugfest in Copenhagen at the moment. Before he became thus elevated, Pachauri was made in April 2001 Director-General of the Tata Energy Research Institute (TERI), after having become its Director and head in 1981.
As its name might imply, there is a link between the Institute and the Tata Group. But it is no casual link. TERI was actually set up by a consortium of Tata Group companies, initially operating from the Tata Group headquarters. That firm, incidentally, can trace its origins back to 1868, when its founder, Jamsetji Nusserwanji Tata, established a trading company in Bombay, dealing in opium.
But from its humble if profitable beginnings as an opium trader, the Tata group, of course, is now owner of Corus Steel, which two weeks ago mothballed the steelworks in Redcar, throwing 1,700 workers on the dole.
This is also the same Corus which, as we reported last week, potentially stands to make £1.2 billion over the next three years by cashing in on now surplus EU carbon credits given to the firm, plus cash paid through the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM), gained by transferring Redcar's steel production to India.
Tata stands to gain from the CDM from being allocated credits for notional carbon "savings" gained from investing in a new steel plant in the Indian province of Orissa. Coincidentally, this will initially produce 3 million tons of hot rolled steel – exactly the capacity of the mothballed Redcar plant.
In another "strange but true" coincidence, the CDM scheme – which was set up to implement the 1997 Kyoto Protocol - is administered by the UN, of which Pachauri is a senior official. He is also one of the main cheer-leaders for the carbon trading scheme represented by the CDM.
Of course there is absolutely no posiible suggestion – as Booker makes clear - that Pachauri benefits personally in any possible way from Tata's exploitation of the various carbon trading schemes set up, even if it is the IPCC which provides the recommendations which drive those schemes. That is just a coincidence.
Nor can the railway engineer help it if last year, on official figures, buying and selling the right to emit CO2 was worth $126 billion across the world. This market, now enriching many of our leading financial institutions (not to mention Al Gore), is growing so fast that within a few years it is predicted to be worth trillions, making carbon the most valuable traded commodity in the world. Pachauri just helps make it happen out of the kindness of his heart.
Nevertheless, Pachauri is clearly nervous of the connection between Tata and the institute it so generously established. Not only is there no mention of the connection on the institute's official web site, it is also curiously absent from Pachauri's personal website and his own carefully reworked cv, which can be downloaded from the site.
In fact, in yet another of those coincidences which seems to dog Pachauri, a year after he had been appointed chairman of the IPCC, the Tara Energy Research Institute was quietly renamed as The Energy Research Institute. The only overt link now is a listing of the politically safe(er) Tata Tea Limited – a wholly-owned division of the Tata Group – as one of the corporate sponsors.
Nevertheless, nothing had really changed. "We have not severed our past relationship with the Tatas. It's only (the change of name) for convenience," said communication manager Annapurna Vancheswaran back in January 2003.
However, the relabelling did leave the good doctor free to do his good works at the helm of the IPCC and TERI, without any obvious connection with Tata, thus allowing him to parade himself as a "scientist" rather than head of a multi-million dollar conglomerate set up by a multi-billion dollar conglomerate. And conglomerate TERI became. Pachauri has expanded his portfolio to become Director-General of The Energy and Resources Institute in the United States – an organisation which, through another of those curious coincidences, also bears the initials TERI.
One of the key directors of his US Board is Prof Timothy G Gregoire, who is J P Weyerhaeuser, Jr Professor of Forest Management, School of Forestry and Environmental Studies at Yale University. And in yet another of those coincidences, Dr Pachauri has just been nominated to lead the newly established Yale Climate and Energy Institute – at Yale University.
Sadly, there seems to be no end to these coincidences, as Dr Pachauri is also a trustee of another organisation, which just happens to be called TERI-Europe, with offices in Albert Grove, London.
When in London, Pachauri doubtless meets up with fellow trustee Sir John Houghton, also a member of the IPCC, former Chief Executive at the Met Office and founder of the Hadley Centre – creator alongside the CRU of the hadCRUT temperature dataset on which the IPCC relies for its doom-laden warnings. And, to keep them company, they have another doyen of the climate industry, fellow trustee Sir Crispin Tickell GCMG KCVO.
But, in one more of those entirely coincidental coincidences, we see that TERI-Europe has been quite busy completing a study which will bring warm feelings to the redundant workers of Redcar. This was a study on "Developing clean development mechanism projects for renewable energy technologies" which – in another coincidence which will have the Redcar Redundants leaping with joy – was sponsored by Mr Miliband's Foreign and Commonwealth Office.
This is, of course, terribly, terribly convenient – if not coincidental – because in 2006, British Petroleum announced it was funding TERI in India to the tune of $9.4 million to produce bio-diesel from Jatropha Curcas, a non-edible oil bearing crop – which could benefit from a renewable CDM.
The project – prop Dr Rajendra Pachauri – was expected to take 10 years and would cultivate around 8,000 hectares of land currently designated as wasteland with Jatropha and install all the equipment necessary for seed crushing, oil extraction and processing - to produce 9 million litres of bio-diesel per annum.
A mere year later, Tata Chemicals – a wholly owned division of the Tata Group - announced plans to "foray into biodiesel", disclosing that it was already in talks for securing the required raw material from "several leading plantation groups" that were engaged in growing Jatropha and pongamia plants on a commercial scale.
That, without any possible doubt, just has to be a coincidence – just as is the fact that the closure of the Redcar plant will help the UK meet the emission reduction targets that are currently being negotiated under the aegis of Dr Pachauri in Copenhagen.
And all this becomes possible because Dr Pachauri's friends have performed a miracle of our time, transforming carbon dioxide, a gas upon which all life on earth depends, into a "pollutant", worth more than diamonds, let alone oil. Forget Big Oil writes Booker. The new world power is Big Carbon. And many of those now gathered in Copenhagen are making a great deal of money out of it.
But, of course, Dr Pachauri is not one of them - absolutely not, no question of it ... quite improper even to think of the idea. Devil's Kitchen has got it totally wrong. Even if Pachauri's personal fortune (a closely-guarded secret) was well into seven figures - he is a "scientist". They have nothing to do with making money. Their only concern is with saving the planet. Believe me.

Yup, it seems like Windows Phone and Blackberry are all being dominated by the Android.
Also I don't know when the iPhone 5 is going to be launched but when it launces, you can be sure that the iOS percentage is going to jump 10%.
But I distinctly remember Microsoft holding a mock-funeral for the iPhone about this time last year! How can this be?!?!?!
Pardon me while I go laugh myself unconcious.
It is nice to see that Android is taking market share but in all honest I would like to see it split a bit more just to keep competition going. I agree when the iPhone 5 is release their market share will be back up especially considering that all 4 major players in the cell market will have a version on their network.
Now does that mean that Microsoft will take out the windows phone 7 elements out of the Windows 8 operating system. I hope so, because their phone operating systems aren't getting better sales, in fact they're getting worse sales now. Also I knew already that blackberry was losing its share of the market already & anyway there was some article written up to say the like earlier on in the Hot Hardware articles section. So it looks like that Android has virtually won this smart phone operating system out of the alternatives to the iPhone's operating system. The iOS has remained steady, but I doubt whether you will see Apple out do Android unless they can fake something so as to take the makers of Android to court.
My and my girlfriend were at the store the other day and as an Android user I told her to go with an I-Phone as I believe the platform is more mature and the devices are nicer.
Battery life is better no doubt on iOS but also the interface seems snappier. I dont know if this is caused by hardware being superior or just a more polished OS but whatever the case I recommended her to get an I-Phone and I myself when able to will migrate to an I-Phone unless these concerns are addressed.
I am interested to see the reviews on the I-Phone 5.
I actually sometimes thin kthat San Fransico 'bar' and leaked iPhone 5 fiasco was to gander the '15 minutes' in the spotlight to avoid the success of Android. during the summer.Keep it going in the media 'spin cycle ' in Apple favor's because the media 'bling' is the the thing that has worked so well for them.
Not actually knocking iit and it's OK @ 3vi1 to have a pal or 2 in the doghouse.&.wake me up.

James Vincent McMorrow - If I Had a Boat
James Vincent McMorrow is like when you throw together leftovers (maybe some Bon Iver, Band of Horses, Otis Redding, a touch of William Fitzsimmons) and come out with a result more delicious than you ever could have anticipated.
He's soulful, he's folky, he's alternative. He croons. He composes. What I like best about McMorrow is something incredibly familiar and comforting in his raspy, falsetto voice.
His music's well-worn in feeling embodies nostalgia - as if you've always listened to his CD, Early In The Morning, on repeat, in your bedroom, on road trips.

Fugitive's run lasts 19 hours
By SUE WATSON
Authorities caught up with Latrell Wilson, 20, who escaped from the Marshall County Courtroom Tuesday of last week, in less than 24 hours, according to sheriff Kenny Dickerson.
Wilson will not be staying in the county jail long. Dickerson said he is being sent to Rankin County where the Mississippi Department of Corrections will take over the man's custody.
Wilson fled the courtroom August 31 shortly after 4 p.m. when he was allowed to go to the bathroom. He was not restrained because court rules and policies do not allow a defendant who is free on bond to be restrained in the presence of the jury.
The saga began with Wilson due in court Tuesday of last week for a jury trial, facing charges of participating in a burglary in the Wall Hill community in 2009, Dickerson said. Wilson was late for his court appointment because he attempted overdosing with Tylenol the day before his court date, according to the sheriff. Authorities learned the whereabouts of Wilson and brought him to court wearing blue jeans, a white T-shirt and shoes he had been given at the medical facility.
Late in the day after the jury was seated, Wilson decided to change his plea to guilty. Judge Robert Elliott sentenced him to 15 years, six years suspended and nine years to be served. Elliott and circuit court clerk Lucy Carpenter then went into the judge's chambers where the sentencing orders were being made ready to sign, Carpenter said.
"We had started the jury trial, the jury had been selected, the judge had sent the jury home for the day and Mr. Wilson had pled guilty," she said. "Judge Elliott had ordered him transported immediately. Everyone left the room except sheriff's deputies and the defendant.
"The next thing, we heard a commotion and he had jumped the rail and run down the center aisle with deputies in pursuit."
Carpenter imagined Wilson taking leave "like a gazelle."
Election commissioners Marie Palmer and Betty Whaley were inside the election commissioners' room when Wilson bolted through the courtroom back door and scaled down the stairway.
"I didn't see it," Carpenter said. "I was in chambers with the judge discussing what we were going to do tomorrow and getting his order signed to immediately transport when I heard the thud when he jumped. It had taken all day to seat a jury for his trial. He was a no-show earlier in the morning, had overdosed on Tylenol, was taken to the hospital and then released. Wilson was on bond when he made his appearance in court, not in the custody of the sheriff's office."
Carpenter said Wilson was charged with burglary and a co-defendant had already been sentenced and was going to testify against Wilson.
Palmer said Wilson flew down the stairs so fast, she didn't think his feet hit the stairs but a time or two.
Sheriff's deputies and Holly Springs police officers pursued Wilson, who fled to the area near Elder Avenue in the Chulahoma Avenue area west of Craft Street, where he allegedly entered a house and tried unsuccessfully to take a lady hostage. He subsequently fled out the back door of her house and continued evading authorities, who had called out the police dogs for a manhunt. The DeSoto County helicopter began surveilling the perimeter around 5 p.m. and a SWAT team was assembled. Officers fanned out trying to set up a search perimeter.
Wilson was believed to have escaped to the Cedar Hill area, perhaps to have entered a dry creek bed, then fled and crossed Highway 78 near the Marianna/Peyton road area.
By nightfall, authorities were still searching the area near Marianna and Wall Hill roads where Wilson's grandmother was said to live and where he was believed to have stayed at times, Dickerson said.
Wilson was arrested in DeSoto County on Highway 305 outside Lewisburg and heading into Olive Branch around 11:15 a.m. Wednesday, Sept. 1, Dickerson said. He was a passenger in a vehicle driven by an acquaintance and had been lying down in the backseat but not under cover, the sheriff said.
Wilson was taken into custody without incident and had nothing to say, Dickerson said.
"He was extremely quiet," the sheriff said.
Wilson, whose address in his court file was listed in the 700 block of Wall Hill Road, Byhalia, was searched and being processed by noon Wednesday at the county jail.
Dickerson said Judge Elliott had rescinded Wilson's sentence of 15 years and ordered Wilson to serve the full 25 years allowed by law for burglary. Wilson will also be charged with felony escape and with burglary, the sheriff said.
Dickerson said Wilson had help from some friends after he escaped the courtroom.
"He was well acquainted with all the area," he said. "We know he made it to Marianna last night, then on toward Wall Hill Road where he had stayed some with his grandmother. He had inside information and help and we also had inside information and help to counter it."
Wilson was believed to have spent part of the night at his grandmother's house on Wall Hill Road before leaving in a vehicle Wednesday morning of last week in an effort to go to an apartment in Olive Branch.
The individuals who assisted Wilson in his flight may be charged, Dickerson said.
Dickerson said the victim in the Wall Hill burglary in which Wilson's codefendants struck a retired police officer and burglarized her home lived not far away from Wilson's grandmother's house.
Sheriff Dickerson said he appreciates sheriff's department officers, who along with himself, worked tirelessly in the apprehension of Wilson. He also thanked officers with the Holly Springs Police Department, the Byhalia Police Department, the DeSoto County Sheriff's Department, the Olive Branch Police Department, the Mississippi Department of Corrections and the U.S. Marshal's Office for the excellent teamwork "which always proves to be effective in the apprehension of criminals."

Wild Iris (92 Edition)by Louise Gluck
Synopses & ReviewsPlease note that used books may not include additional media (study guides, CDs, DVDs, solutions manuals, etc.) as described in the publisher comments.
Publisher Comments:
This collection of stunningly beautiful poems encompasses the natural, human, and spiritual realms, and is bound together by the universal themes of time and mortality. With clarity and sureness of craft, Gluck's poetry questions, explores, and finally celebrates the ordeal of being alive.
"There are a few living poets whose new poems one always feels eager to read. Louise Gluck ranks at the top of the list. Her writing's emotional and rhetorical intensity are beyond dispute. Not once in six books has she wavered from a formal seriousness, an unhurried sense of control and a starkness of expression that, like a scalpel, slices the mist dwelling between hope and pain." David Biespiel, the Washington Post
"Louise Gluck is a poet of strong and haunting presence. Her poems, published in a series of memorable books over the last twenty years, have achieved the unusual distinction of being neither "confessional" nor "Intellectual" in the usual senses of those words, which are often thought to represent two camps in the life of poetry.... What a strange book The Wild Iris is, appearing in this fin-de-siecle, written in the language of flowers. It Is a lieder cycle, with all the mournful cadences of that form. It wagers everything on the poetic energy remaining in the old troubadour image of the spring, the Biblical lilies of the field, natural resurrection." Helen Vendler, The New Republic
About the Author
Louise Glück has won the Pulitzer Prize for The Wild Iris in 1993. The author of eight books of poetry andone collection of essays, Proofs and Theories: Essays on Poetry, she has received the National Book Critics Circle Award for Poetry, the William Carlos Williams Award, and the PEN/Martha Albrand Award for Nonfiction. Louise Glück teaches at Williams College and lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

PLAYERS: Lance Armstrong
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) will be investigating Lance Armstrong's Olympic medal, a bronze medal he won in the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney. This investigation is coming off him being stripped of his 7 Tour de France titles he won (1999-2005)."The IOC will now immediately start the process concerning the involvement of Lance Armstrong, other riders and particularly their entourages with respect to the Olympic Games and their future involvement with the Games, an IOC official said on Thursday to Reuters.The IOC has taken in note the UCI's (International Cycling Union) decision and welcome all measures that will shed light on the full extent of this episode and allow the sport to reform and to move forward the official went on to say. The IOC has an eight-year statute of limitation for changing Olympic results and stripping medals from doping offenders but last month the IOC's vice-president Thomas Bach hinted that they could be ways around the limita...

Propaganza: The Election Comes to the Daily Show
The ladies may love Cool James, but the candidates love Cool Jon. Four presidential candidates will be sitting down with Jon Stewart over the next three weeks, starting with Joe Biden on Wednesday. Here he is announcing his candidacy last winter on that very stage:
Next up, on August 16th, will be the candidate whose guest appearances on the Daily Show will soon tie Alec Baldwin's SNL-hosting record, John McCain. Here he is in his most recent appearance from earlier this year:
Watch the rest of this interview here.
August 20th will bring Tommy Thompson, and two days later, Barack Obama will be making his first appearance on the show as a declared candidate, but not his first appearance on the show:
And that's why Jon Stewart is the man you've come to think of as He Who Helps Us Indecide.
Watch all of Jon's interviews with candidates here.

Candidate Casting Couch: Special Edition – The Candies
With the Emmy nominations now in, we got to thinking — don't the candidates deserve nominations, too? So, we got ourselves a red carpet (actually, it's more of an accent rug), and did some nominating of our own. Here's a breakdown of our nominees for the Candidate Emmy Awards, or Candies…
Best Actor
Close to $2 million in debt and still free-falling in the polls, John McCain gets a nod for "The Biggest Loser." He squares off against Barack Obama of "30 (Ba)Rock" and Sam Brownback for his portrayal of "The God Whisperer." Surprise nomination: New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg, for "Extreme Makeover: Political Party Edition."
Best Actress
The nominees are Hillary Clinton, Hillary Clinton, and Hillary Clinton. Notably missing: Elizabeth Edwards for her star turn in "Desperate Housewives."
Best Comedy
The nominees are Chris Dodd's eyebrows, the entire Mike Gravel campaign, and Dennis Kucinich's recent bout with food-poisoning. (He's a vegan. That's hilarious.)
Outstanding Mini-Series
Garnering its first nomination is "According to Mitt," the eleven-part special in which Mitt Romney clarified everything from what he meant when he called himself a hunter to why his staffers like to impersonate cops. His stiffest competition comes from "CSI: Giuliani," a gritty, real-life investigation into the illicit goings-on in various Rudy Giuliani campaign offices.
Of course, in a year that saw the finales of both "The Gilmore Girls" and Jim Gilmore, the 2007 Candies are not without their fair share of snubs. John Edwards (Best Supporting Actor, 2004) received only one nomination, in the category of Outstanding Hair and Makeup. Conspicuously absent from the list: Duncan Hunter, Mike Huckabee, Bill Richardson, Tommy Thompson, and Tom Tancredo. Don't look for them to be nominated for anything any time soon.
Did we miss anyone who deserves a Candie this year? Post your own nominations!

Chicago, one of America's already most surveilled city, may be getting a new set of potentially privacy invading equipment installed in the downtown area this summer. Called "The Array of Things," sensors attached to lamp posts and streetlights will measure everything from the weather to foot traffic in the area, using data collected from cell phones. While its creators say they won't keep any personal information, privacy advocates are still skeptical.
Aaron Cynic writes at Chicagoist:
Researchers hope to gain deeper insight into how Chicago lives and breathes via an ambitious sounding system of sensors placed on lamp posts throughout the city. The "Array of Things," a project coordinated by the Chicago Department of Innovation and Technology and the Urban Center for Computation and Data as part of "Initiative 3" in the City's technology plan. The project is funded by a $200,000 grant from Argonne National Laboratories.… Read the rest

Magic Holiday Journey
A magical holiday journey from the cozy pubs of Dublin to the desolate peaks and alpine lochs of the Scottish Highlands. A visit for the ages where the sparkling lights of London will dazzle and enchant while the medieval torches of Edinburgh will alight the old city and stir the primeval soul. Ferries, trains, and buses await your arrival and conveyance throughout the land of the ancient Celts to whisk you on a whirlwind tour ...

I exchanged questions this week with Mike Burzawa of Bear Goggles On. You can read my answer to his questions here. The two teams match up this Thursday night in steamy Miami.
1: How will the Bears offensive line protect Jay Cutler from the Mike Nolan blitz packages?
Look for the Bears to move Cutler around. He's been a sitting duck when taking traditional drops, so rollouts and misdirection plays will be the order of the day. The Bears' offensive line seems to be improving. I say "seems to" because it's hard to judge based on their recent competition.
2: Defensively, Julius Peppers is a beast, how has he performed against highly mobile QB's this season?
The Bears haven't really faced a highly mobile quarterback this year. Aaron Rodgers and Tony Romo come to mind as more elusive quarterbacks, but no one that mobile. Peppers has been having a solid debut season with the Bears even though his sack numbers aren't there. Peppers will be his usual self and if Jake Long is nursing a bum wing, look for Pep to take advantage.
3: The Dolphins have one of the best WR's in Brandon Marshall, Cutler's good friend. How will Chicago's secondary take him out of the game?
I'm secretly hoping that Cutler and Marshall light up South Beach the night before and Marshall is too hung over to play. Seriously, though, look for Peanut Tillman to match up with Marshall with safety help from either Chris Harris or Danieal Manning over the top. The best thing the Bears could do would be to get pressure up front to force early or errant throws.
4: The Dolphins will likely run the Wild Cat quite often this week, how will the Bears adjust to that style of play?
The Bears' linebacking corp is the best in the business and stopping the Wild Cat will be up to Urlacher and Briggs in particular. The Cover-2 defense stresses that players stay in their gaps and that's the key to turning the Wild Cat into a Wild Kitty.
5: Who is the unsung hero of the Bears this year?
I've got to give that distinction to defensive end Izzy Idonije. He's benefiting from Julius Peppers on the other side by leading the team in sacks, knocking down passes (which have directly led to a couple of easy INT's) and even blocked a couple of kicks. Izzy started off as mostly a special teams player but has carved out a nice niche opposite Peppers.

text: 27 March 2012 RODIN'S LOVERS BOUND WITH A MILE OF STRING The lovers, carved passionately embracing a century ago by Rodin, are in this image bound even more closely together with a mile of string, by the contemporary artist Cornelia Parker. Parker intends her binding of the lovers to symbolise the complexity of desire, suffocating as well as passionate. It also contains an art historical reference: in 1942 the artist Marcel Duchamp used a mile of string to criss-cross a gallery space, so that visitors had to pick their way through his cobweb to gain access to a major exhibition of surrealist art. FOR REFLECTION "The complexity of desire, suffocating as well as passionate." What are your thoughts on the complex issue of desires and the urgent longings of the heart? How can they be suffocating? Can they be liberating? On image | Days Like These, Tate Triennial Exhibition of Contemporary British Art 2003, Tate Gallery, Tuesday 25th February - May 26, 2003.

I didn't understand your misunderstanding of target-date funds; I just chatted with my girlfriend, and while she wasn't under the impression that one was supposed to cash out on the retirement date, we kind of arrived at the thought that calling them "retirement-date" funds would be clearer; perhaps "target-date" sounds like I'm investing because I expect a big expense to hit on more or less that date, rather than simply the beginning of a long, gradual withdrawal over (hopefully) a couple decades following.
Maybe it's a British thing; I remember strong pressure, maybe even regulations, to cash out your pension savings on retirement and buy an annuity.
It's typical of Richard Florida to dance on the grave of homeownership. We should all be wandering minstrels in Floridaland, dancing from creative center to creative center as the whim strikes us.
But this is grossly oversimplified. I say this as someone who has moved frequently, but is semi-permanently planted now ("for the children"), while looking forward to someday flitting off again to greener pastures. In other words, sympathetic to the premise but not convinced.
First of all, frequently flitting is a major underlying cause of this economic crisis, in ways that are not yet acknowledged. People moving from one city or country to another have no real understanding of the local market, and tend to overpay. I don't know how much this contributed to the bubble, but it was not insignificant. People moving or investing from overseas REALLY got gouged. Ordinary people are not good at currency arbitrage or real estate speculation, it seems. We got screwed.
Secondly, homeownership makes a huge difference in the level of commitment to local communities, schools, and institutions. What's the old saw about no one in the history of the world ever washing a rental car? It's not a good analogy–renters often care about the same things owners care about. But on the whole, the sheer "we're in this together" mentality of owners makes a huge difference, especially in local politics where so much unacknowledged work goes on (for better or ill).
At the heart of the bubble years, if you were unhappy with the local schools, the crime rate, the traffic, etc. what did you do? Sold stake and moved. Today we are stuck in place. This sucks in so many ways, but one thing it improves is our commitment to fixing things where we are. That's a silver lining, isn't it? I think it is. Something to celebrate on this, the eve of our greatest national holiday.
Happy Fourth Felix, Fellow readers!

For those constantly asking about Ash's tattoos.
My best friend met Ash Stymest. He said that he was super nice and really outgoing but he was high or something and when he went out of the club, the bodyguards wouldn't let him get back in the club. It's sad seeing Ash getting less and less work nowadays because of all his drinking and smoking.
I made a collage with Ash in it :)
