ThinkProgress is a news site dedicated to providing our readers with rigorous reporting and analysis from a progressive perspective.
Founded in 2005, ThinkProgress is an editorially independent project of the Center for American Progress Action Fund. Over the past decade, the site has evolved from a small rapid response blog to a newsroom of reporters and editors covering the intersections between politics, policy, culture, and social justice.
ThinkProgress seeks to engage our readers on issues that have a real impact on people's lives. Our progressive values inform our news priorities. Driven by a mission to hold the powerful accountable and to lift up the marginalized whose voices aren't often heard, our reporters find the stories that aren't getting enough attention in the national media. We work to advance the public understanding of what's going on in the world — and why it matters — by reporting on facts without relying on false equivalencies, by exposing hypocrisy in our political system, and by translating policy decisions into personal experiences.
We are committed to accuracy and transparency in all of our coverage. ThinkProgress is a nonpartisan and nonprofit outlet that does not endorse particular political candidates.

[Watch] Here's What Happens When Your Side Chick Crashes Your Wedding
It's a scene out of a Tyler Perry movie.
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama has signed into law a bill to restore lower interest rates on loans for millions of students heading back to college this fall.
Friday's Oval Office ceremony caps a frenzy of negotiations that led to a rare bipartisan compromise to lower rates before classes resume.
The new law links student loan interest rates to the financial markets. It restores lower rates this fall but could yield higher costs if the economy improves in the years ahead.

product details-Tab
Age: 6 months and older
For Use: For hair and body. Leave in or rinse out
Scent: Beautiful aromatherapy blend that includes lemongrass
Chlorine and salt water suck out the sebum (a natural lubricant and protectant) of the hair and cause it to crack, resulting in split ends. Styling aids can also dry and damage hair. California Baby®'s proprietary formula contains a botanical blend of herbs, rich emollients, and natural sunscreens that combine to rebalance, repair and rehydrate-leaving hair soft and shiny. California Baby®'s pure essential oil blend leaves hair beautifully scented. May be used daily and year-round. Leave in or rinse out.
Tip: Wet hair is up to 20% weaker than dry hair; especially after it has been soaked for some time and absorbed the maximum amount of water possible. This means that wet hair must be handled much more carefully. Be careful when tying hair and try not to take it in and out of a knot. Wash hair gently and slather on conditioner-don't rinse out. The extra TLC will help restore softness and shine. For added protection and conditioning, apply under a bathing cap before swimming or sunbathing.
For Grownups:
Benefits & Features:
Not tested on Animals. 100% Vegan: No Animal Ingredients. Eco-friendly, Concentrated & Biodegradable.
Our essential oils are pesticide fee & sustainably grown.
No parabens, sodium benzoate, benzoic acid, benzyl alcohol or phenoxyethanol.

Not just for babies!!!
By Barbraloo2

I bought this for me, not my children lol. When I am at the beach or pool, I wet my hair and then coat it with this conditioner. It smells wonderfully fresh and it protects my hair from the sun, salt and chlorine. Great product!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This is such a great product. My 3 and 5 year old girls swim twice a week and this makes their hair so soft. I am surprised people don't like the smell, we love it. We've been to Hawaii several times and this always reminds me of being there. We've used this after the beach and it always works great. I highly recommend it!

does not smell like gardenias
By buyer
from NYC
Unlike the label, it does not smell like gardenias. It has an interesting botanical smell that is both sweet and bitter at the same time, almost like a medicinal herb. It is hard to describe but I did not like the smell and don't think I can use this as a leave-in conditioner. Otherwise, it is a thick formula and probably the bottle will last long. I most likely will not buy another bottle unless the distinctive smell grows on me, but at least it is a quality product (no strange chemicals). I am a fan of California Baby products and like their philosophy; I will try a different conditioner next time.
Yucky smell
By momof3
from NJ
I bought this and the shampoo and hate the smell of both. It smells exactly like citronella candles. It also doesn't do anything great for my daughter's hair. The biggest Pro is the fact that it is very safe to use on children.
Wonderful, quick conditioner!

A Leavenworth man awakened Friday morning to find a burglar in his apartment. Using threats, the burglar then took the victim through the apartment asking for money, a police spokesman said.
The incident was reported around 11 a.m. Friday in the 300 block of Kiowa Street. No injuries were reported.
A 22-year-old man reported that he had been sleeping in his apartment. He was awakened by someone who was going through a closet in the apartment, according to Maj. Dan Nicodemus, deputy chief of the Leavenworth Police Department.
The suspect reportedly asked the victim where money was located as they went through the apartment. The suspect apparently did not have a weapon but he threatened the victim with bodily harm.
The suspect reportedly left the apartment with a laptop computer, a Blu-Ray disc player, two DVDs and a coin bank.
Nicodemus said it appears the suspect had kicked an apartment door in order to gain entry.
The suspect was described as a black man who is about 6 feet 2 inches tall and 300 pounds. He had a goatee. He wore a white beanie hat, a white shirt, white pants and work boots.
Anyone with information about the case can contact the Leavenworth Police Department's clue hotline at 913-682-CLUE or 682-2583. Callers can remain anonymous.

First off the two lists hold different sets of data, however through some combining of variables in the get method eventually hold the same type of data. The end goal is to populate a drop down with both lists sorted together based on their names (description).
The basic is that there are TWO tables holding the type of data, but holding it so differently that it's virtually impossible to write a good SQL statement to get it out. The end result is a "name" or "nameIndex" object.
Both have an indexcode, but that is not related to the opposing table, it IS related to what is stored in a third table that needs to be updated with this code. The codes will never match between tables (one is two characters long, the other 3 or more).
How do I combine these two lists into a dropdown for the user so that the value of the dropdown is the indexcode and the description displayed as the label?
<html:select property="name">
<html:optionsCollection name="nameList" label="nameDescription" value="nameCode" />
<html:select property="nameIndex">
<html:optionsCollection name="nameIndexList" label="nameIndexDescription" value="nameIndexId.nameCode" />
(note the "nameIndexId.nameCode" value) into this:
<html:select property="allNames">
<html:optionsCollection name="allNames" label="nameDescription" value="nameCode" />

Goddammit, I came to this thread to have a vigorous discussion of the emergent gameplay options of FTL. I was greeted to this mess. THANKS FOR FUCKING IT ALL UP, YOU ASSHOLES.
You can count on us.
Seriously, though, if anyone actually wants to talk about the game, I'm all for it. I really like this shit.
Talk about games? lawl
Before I had been able to beat the Flagship, there was one time when I sent a boarding party over to try and take it out from within. I needed to disable the medbay before they could properly fight, so I fired a missile at it to disable it, then sent my two Mantises over to the medbay to kill anybody who tried to fix it.
I forgot to turn off Autofire. Boom, blew up two of my most valuable crew members.
That sucks, but holy shit, that sounded awesome.
This needs to be on PSM (Playstation Mobile), so I can play it on the Vita and my Xperia Play with one purchase.
You would.
This part of the week is like Christmas because tomorrow there is probably a new episode of Always Sunny.
I miss Parks & Rec. Stupid week with no Parks & Rec.
Yeah that's hella lame. Silly America. In Britland we show things consistently.
Like Dr Who's two hiatuses each year?
Don't you assume British TV = that retardation.
I've gotten to the point where I can beat the Flagship pretty consistently (on Easy). The key is to spend as much time in every sector as possible, because more time spent generally means more scrap to buy upgrades with. To fight the Flagship, I like to have:
Cloaking (to avoid the first volley from the triple missile)
Crew Teleporter (to teleport over and take out the weapon systems one by one)
Burst Lasers, lots of them (more shots are better than stronger shots against a level 4 shield)
I recently played through with the Federation Cruiser, however, and it has a neat built-in weapon that fires a really powerful beam, but it cannot take on a Cloaking unit! The fight against the Flagship in that one was tense, because even the first volley of missiles can cripple you if you're unlucky.
On easy? You's a pussy.
So I've been screwing around with the Rock Cruiser and it seems like getting a crew teleporter asap is the only way for this to be viable. Does anybody have opinions on this?
I don't even have the Rock Cruiser.

U.S. Election: Britain's View
In London, the Clinton-Obama race is drawing most of the attention that British people are paying to the U.S. election. Animosity toward President Bush is a drag on Sen. John McCain's popularity. There is lingering affection for the United States in Britain and a hope that the old relationship between the British and American people can be restored when a new president is in the White House.
ROB GIFFORD: This is Rob Gifford in London, where the focus has also been mainly on the race for the Democratic nomination.
U: Sharp exchanges between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama...
U: A showdown in Ohio, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama trade accusations in a televised...
U: The Obama bandwagon rolls on...
GIFFORD: With the Republican Party nomination all but wrapped up by Senator John McCain, the news media here have explored every angle of the race between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. Much of the focus has been on the generational gap between them and of course, the fascination about whether the first woman or the first African-American will make it to the White House.
The animosity in Britain and elsewhere in Europe towards President Bush is not helping John McCain's popularity. Certainly on the streets of the capital today, ordinary Londoners like Hannah Lansbret(ph), John Benstood(ph), Frida Matasa(ph) and many others were giving a landslide to the Democrats, with Senator Obama definitely the favorite.
M: George Bush has done a pretty appalling job of being president for the last eight years. And so, it would be a much better thing to a Democratic candidate win this time around.
M: Hillary Clinton is very experienced in international politics, and Obama has a wonderfully international personal background. So I'd say either of those two would be good.
M: I think Clinton's just too relying on how well her husband did as a president to get her into power. So I think Obama would represent real change.
GIFFORD: The war in Iraq has damaged the U.S. reputation in Britain, as in much of Europe. But there is here a lingering affection for the United States, if not its foreign policy, and a hope that with a new president, something of the old relationship can be restored.

Watercooler Fickle 12/17/2013
This review is from: AMD FX-9370 Vishera 4.4GHz Socket AM3+ 220W 8-Core Desktop Processor - Black Edition FD9370FHHKWOX with Liquid Cooling Kit
so far haven't gotten there yet
The watercooling device is very easy to overtighten and can bend pins, or if you have Arctic Silver 5, processor actually stuck to my pump as I removed it, and proc. was firmly installed into socket!@ never heard of that.
Bulky water cooling unit. has to be effective or that's a complete waste of space. I cannot fit the 200 mm fans I bought , one because of the size of the watercooler ., also size of fan! Now I am going to have to get creative and "Jimmy Rig" a fan mount for a 120mm or 140 mm side fan.
Other Thoughts:
don't overtighten on CPU .,,.. if you can figure out the rings and plastic screw mounts! takes a little bit of slowing down and problem solving as the instructions don't mention these plastic screw mount brackets on the contents list at all! then it says just simply ....screw in like this. Very poor instructions/ especially for a first time watercooling installer.

Shush Artemis we have been down this road before and it didn't end well for you then either.
Stick to footballing arguments if you have any.
It says a lot that the facts swerve states are seen as doom by you. Clearly you want to stick your head in the sand to avoid observing the pattern at AFC, unless of course you are a one-day-fan who clearly can not see the pattern as a result of not knowing recent history.
Your comment seem like comments coming from a person capable of little thought. It is hard to consider posts like yours as coming from a fan.
Show me the wind-up and i'll show you reason.

I can't believe what I am going to write, as I am ultra-positve Gooner and love Arsenal in good times and bad.
Swerve is a Gooner if you read through his posts.
Yes he is well negative and cannot believe tomorrow will be any brighter, he doesn't buy into Wenger's youth vision, and like 99% wants more defensive quality.
He is losing faith in Wenger and the board, but he is a Gooner.
Sad poofters hiding behing fake ID's.
People here know who the true fans are...
It's obvious that these boys have never been to Upton Park on a wet saturday, or bounced up and down in the Park Road end.
You sound a bit backward to be honest, so I can understand your anger.
If you think I am winding you up a touch of paranoia too I would imagine.
I have seen enough these last few years to know that not all Gooners are equal.
You are another example of that.

Swerve IS a pessimistic fecker.
Moan moan moan.
BUT.......he usually raises VALID points, so fairplay.
However he does do your head in with his constant negativity, and you have to admit Swerve you dissapeared last season when we put that run together? The club IS frustrating of late but there ARE positives along with the well documented negatives from Swerve, it would be nice if, just now and then, Swerve posted a cheery note on a cheery day so we could cheer....erm.....hooray!
Also Swerve does tend to side with the ManU fans, which is very strange in my book, I,m buggered if i would stand with em slating our own club.
All in all though, we may not share the same opinions all the time and me and him have had our little slagging matches, but Swerve IS an Arsenal fan (one that Boos no doubt) and the arguments he raises are unfortunately valid.
Fair play.

"and you have to admit Swerve you dissapeared last season when we put that run together"
Nope. I was still here.
That "run" included all the 0-0 draws everyone was moaning about and came to an abrupt halt when the games mattered against top opposition.
I don't apologise for saying it as I see it.
If we were awash with trophies and players busting their guts for the club I would look a little silly wouldn't I?
I'm beyond caring to be honest on that one.
I always anticipate something to that effect after a couple of posts. Then the "counter" threads come in and before long we chug along to the usual routine.
A couple of newer posters get sucked in and "defend" the club, followed swiftly by a couple of "you are a Manc in disguise".
Believe me, I am aware.
Swerve IS NOT an AFC fan ! simple.
However I have to accept half of his argument about the squad assessment.
To lose Ade is not really a problem but to not replace him is criminal.
Why ? because Walcott is not ready and he is inconsistent.
RVP and Eduardo's fitness is still questionable.
This leaves us with Vela and Bendtner as out and out strikers in the squad.
I was in Barnet and my assessment of Vermaelen is EXCELLENT.
He is strong and intelligent footballer.
He won all of the one to one situation. He is calm and his passing is very good.
He prefers to be close to the main striker and get bloodied whereas Gallas,Senderos,Djourou and Silvestre are scared of confrontation.
This will provide a better combination.
I doubt if he can really partner TOURE as they are a bit similar.

>Swerve IS NOT an AFC fan ! simple.<
Xavier, BANG TO RIGHTS! mate.
Let's look at Swerve's track record more carefully, shall we?
- Consistently slate the team / manager he claims to ''support'', will even queue on the same line with his Man U loving friends to do so
- Never has any positive thing to say about the club
- Always scouring the net for any negative piece of scrap to berate the entire club, it reminds me of P&S on the LFC board who until recently claim to support Liverpool before declaring his true allegiance
- Renowned for going AWOL whenever results are favourable to the team P&S style.
- Has no history of football management at any level (including managing at local Sunday League Pub level) but thinks in his mind that he knows the needs of the team better than the current manager
- He claims that the club have underachieved massively in the last 5 years but conveniently ignore the simple facts that during this same period; (a) a new stadium project was undertaken to increase future revenues, (b) the team have come within a whisker of winning the BIG ones - the Champions League and the EPL title, losing narrowly to Barca 2-1 in the final and just 4 points away from lifting the title in 2007/08 season, (c) we have an amazing streak of bad luck to key players (Eduardo, Walcott, Rosicky, Toure, Gallas, Cesc) at important stages in recent years unlike our rivals.
- Rosicky successfully completed 45 minutes of football in an Arsenal shirt for the very first time in 18 months, and yet Swerve chose to dwell on negatives only. Without meaning to be patronising there are many positives out there in the club if you bother to look hard enough.
Without Ronaldo who had been extraordinary for the mancs in the last 3 season, let's see how Man U measure up to Arsenal in the forthcoming season.
I hope your views on Vermealen prove correct Xavier.
Simples? lol
Will you be renewing your season ticket from Spain again this year Xavier?
Or just talking bollocks and lying through your teeth all season once more?

* I was in Barnet *
You was?
Did you flied in from Espania to capture the Barnet game?
Did you flied back again after?
Most of what swerve says is negative but it's most of the time true. we're hardly the best club in england for the moment and the board and wengers decisions seem pretty odd most of the time so why shouldnt he question these decisions. after all he wants whats best for the club and it's not happening for the moment.
It's the arse lickers like you who bring the club down because despite the fact that AW is foing something wierd, you stick by him and dont question him so he doesnt think he's doing something wierd.
face it you might as well be a robot always agreeing with AW. This comes to the question : if AW told all the arsenal fans that they are shit, would you agree?

Please give us a break with just 4 points from winning the title. What position were we in the end? We led for a while then lost it - not dissimilar to Liverpool last season.
The other acheivements mentioned are indeed something to be proud but it all depends on one's expectation and from what base you are judging the achievement.
The loyalists appear to have less ambition than the likes of Swerve and put too much emphasis on the stadium, finance and Wenger rather than looking at the fact that 5 (on my god - that long now) seasons ago, we were the best in the land and winnign trophies.
How much longer are we going to be building for the future and when will the stadium stop being an excuse for not spending and how long without a trophy can we stand before we seriously question Wenger.
Swerve's being moaning for the last 4 years (along with some of us) because we have the foresight not because we are negative and want tp say we told you so.

'has Arsenal flowing through his blood' my ar$e!
SWERVE alias BIGBEAR, as I've said before, it's time for you to piss off....fake. Go spread your gloom elsewhere. We've no interest in "the sky is falling" negative idiots like you this season. We won't condone the incessant spamming of our board with negative crap by manc posing as an Arsenal fan and attempting to wind up the true faithful any more, enough is enough.
Piss off ....... fake. Go spread your shit elsewhere.
Onward to glory you Gooners.
Gooner Til I Die, Islington.
you're obviously extremely jealous of swerve because he is respected, unlike plastic, prawn sandwich eaters like you. You make piers morgan a die hard fan. I live abroad and i have probably been to more gunners games than you will ever see on your TV and swerve has probably most definatly been to more than me. stop pretending you live in islington ( did you use wikipedia for that one?) and enjoy united purging the four colours ( srry thats colors) of shit out of your shit arse malaysian team...and eat a cheese burger while you're at it.
Now shut THE FUCK UP AND STOP FUCKIN SPAMMING.
You've just taken a frying so i suggest you cool down in your girlfriends (tell me if i'm pushing reality) bed-----it should be very cold.
Now can we just STOP FRIEKING TALKING ABOUT SWERVE AND START TALIKNG FOOTBALL. I hope nobody posts on this thread again...
This is definitely Slayer, and definitely ignored now.
Thanks for so obviously showing your hand dickhead.

Okay Longs, please pay attention: I am on your side, anybody thinking otherwise hasn't been paying attention the last many years. Having said that, I do not for one moment buy the earnings that just transpired. And proof was just released on the press wire that what I suspected regarding guidance is indeed correct. GUIDANCE WAS LOWERED - QUITE A BIT
"The company issued a profit outlook for fiscal third-quarter, which ends in December, that was below Wall Street expectations as Bennett said he plans to boost spending in some areas. Symantec said it expects to post third-quarter profit, excluding items, of 36 cents to 38 cents per share, below the average forecast of 42 cents, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S. It forecast third-quarter revenue of $1.72 billion TO $1.75 billion, compared with the average forecast of $1.72 billion.
Bennett said that the profit shortfall was partly due to plans to boost investment in some areas, including providing technical support for its products, where the company had wrongly cut back to keep expenses down."
So they are now going to SPEND more to replace resources they should never have CUT to make false EPS previously. Are you starting to get the picture yet??
Also, any of you who may have worked at, or currently work at, a large tech company know full well what happens when a new CEO comes on board. The subordinate managers go into an absolute panic and start pressuring by any means necessary to meet numbers within their respective teams. As such, I am quite confident that quarter-loading is largely responsible for how Symantec miraculously hit numbers this quarter, and it is being masked by the very non-trivial guidance being lowered for next quarter. The growth rate in the various products is simply not there to explain otherwise, not to mention a major problem in a key product area (BackupExec IIRC), a horrid macro environment and most other large-cap techs missing numbers.
I would recommend taking advantage of any run this week or at a minimum remain protected. I further would especially advise not to add to positions above the 18 range, at least not before next quarter after the new "strategy" is rolled-out. We need to see how the technicals transpire as well.
Everyone is free to ignore what I post, there is even an "ignore" button on the forum for such convenience. But you would be wise to pay attention and remember we are dealing with slight of hand as much as ever, it is the nature of Wall Street and corporate capitalism. I still need to sift through the earnings in more detail and the transcript from the call again. Will also be interesting to watch which analysts react in which fashion tomorrow.
More facts coming out - here's potions of the transcript, things are NOT as they seem just as suspected....
"I'd like to spend a moment on our guidance for the December quarter. We're pleased that revenue and deferred revenue continue to grow year-over-year and sequentially, especially in this uncertain global economic environment. However, operating margin is lower in the December quarter than either the September or year ago December quarters. This may seem counter to what I told you in September, that we would self-fund investments without reducing operating margin. And that's still my commitment."
After our January announcement, we will self-fund this and future investments without reducing operating margin. But we need to make these investments now and not wait until after the January announcement to set the foundation for longer term organic growth. The investments will be allocated to areas like technical support, so we better serve our customers and partners. This is the right thing to do to create long term shareholder value, no matter where we come out on our strategy and operational plan announcement in late January."
TRANSLATION: The CEO promised one thing and already is turning around going against his promise to self-fund, and instead using EPS from next quarter. And the investments cited are typically not a one-quarter impact, which makes this even more suspect.
Here's another interesting point:
"Our subscription business continues to grow. In constant currency, content, maintenance and subscription revenue grew 7%, while license revenue declined 9%. Subscription revenue, which includes our consumer, authentication, MSS and SaaS offerings accounted for 45% of total revenue."
This seems to indicate that while subscriptions increased, license revenue declined by a greater amount, and may constitute a greater proportion of overall revenue as well.
Now, here comes the smoking gun which in my opinion solidifies the quarter-stuffing theory:
"The Consumer business grew 3% year-over-year to $528 million and generated its 16th consecutive quarter of growth. These results were driven by up-selling customers to our premium suites at improved pricing and growing our emerging backup, NortonLive Services and mobile businesses."
It is quite apparent what is going on, but I suspect the analysts will play the Wall St. game and the small investor won't be able to see past the headlines.
Interesting day ahead tomorrow I suspect....
According to this article Symantec MISSED on EPS as well as guided lower. The extent of the reaction after hours makes no sense, may be in large part short covering. Amazing what a headline about "Record Revenue" will do, especially when a dozen other mostly pre-written articles are suddenly released immediately thereafter.
The Numbers: Symantec posted revenues above analyst predictions, though the company's EPS came up short of expectations. The company reported 27 cents per share versus the 33 cents per share estimate and revenues of $1.7 billion versus the $1.65 billion estimate.
A Look Back: Gross margin shrank one percentage point to 83.3%. The contraction appeared to be driven by increased costs, which rose 7.2% from the year earlier quarter while revenue rose 1.1%.
Looking Ahead: For the next quarter, analysts are growing pessimistic about the company's expected results. The average estimate (non whisper) for the third quarter is 37 cents per share, dropping from 38 cents a month ago. A decreasing earning estimate is a negative sign and usually leads to a drop in the stock price. For the fiscal year, the average estimate has been unchanged at $1.46 a share.
Either way, the only glowing thing whatsoever is basically the slight beat in revenue, but the fact the EPS fell short helps solidify the theory of the quarter being stuffed by discounted deals at the expense of next quarter's opportunity.
I wonder instead of an ignore button... is someone can install a vanish button for your babbling nonsense... Don't you have something useful to do with your time? Maybe volunteer someplace...

The Players Club is a 1998 American comedy/drama film written and directed by Ice Cube, who made his directorial debut and also has a small role in the film. The film stars Bernie Mac, Jamie Foxx, Alex Thomas, Faizon Love, John Amos, Terrance Howard, Anthony Johnson/ A.J. Johnson, Charlie Murphy, Monica Calhoun and introducing LisaRaye.
Diana Armstrong (LisaRaye) arrives at the scene of the raunchy, dysfunctional Players Club. She narrates that she used to work at the club and begun when she moved out of her parents home after an argument with her father, as she was pregnant with her son. Diana ends up working at a shoe store, when she meets Ronnie (Chrystale Wilson) and Tricks (Adele Givens), who work for Dolla Bill (Bernie Mac) at The Players Club. They convince Diana she would make better money stripping, by saying, "Use what you got to get what you want."
Dolla Bill gives Diana a job, giving her the name Diamond. Everything is fine until four years into the game her younger lost-minded cousin Ebony Armstrong (Monica Calhoun) comes to live with her. After listening to Dolla's rendition of "The Strippin' Game", she starts working at the club.
Ebony is soon out of control, excessively drinking, staying out all night and influenced more and more by Ronnie and Tricks, who encourage Ebony to do more out-of-club parties for groups of men. Diana tries to warn Ebony to stay away from "those two" and quit doing house parties, but Ebony declines being told what to do, choosing to ignore Diana's advice. after the heated confrontation, Diana has a flashback of a time when she was at a private party with Ronnie and Tricks. The men at the private party offers to pay Ronnie to perform cunnilingus on Diamond who has passed out on the bed drunk. Ronnie accepts the offer and proceeds to assault Diamond, the flashback encourages Diana to protect Ebony. Meanwhile, Dolla Bill gets confronted by a man who works for St. Louis, a drug lord to whom Dolla Bill owes $60,000. He warns Dolla Bill if he doesn't make a payment of $10,000 to St. Louis, he will hunt him down. That same night, St. Louis comes to his club to collect. Little Man, who is the Doorman of the club, tells St. Louis that Dolla Bill is not at the club and they leave. The next day as Dolla Bill tries to leave the club, he gets confronted by St. Louis' men, Brooklyn (Charlie Murphy) and KC (Terrence Howard). They beat him unconscious and throw him into the back of his car. Luckily, for Dollar however, they are stopped by Freeman and Peters, two crooked cops. However Dolla Bill is found in the trunk and is arrested on warrants. The Following night, when rapper Luther "Luke" Campbell comes to the strip club, Two thuggish friends Reggie (Ice Cube) and his friend Clyde (Alex Thomas) are discussing about him. When Dolla Bill, who was bailed out of jail and returned to his club, is notified that Luke is at his club he alerts the strippers via a money alarm and believes he will gain a fortune profit. Clyde tries to meet Luke but his bodyguard (Michael Clarke Duncan) informs Clyde that Luke is trying to relax and not meet with fans. Clyde insults the bodyguard causing him to hit Clyde in the back of his head as he leaves, leaving him unconscious. In retaliation, Reggie beats down the bodyguard and belligerently fights against Luke and his friends, only for him to be defeated and thrown into a glass window.
The dazed Reggie opens fire wildly before being knocked unconscious by the bouncer XL (Tiny Lister). Further tension develops between Ebony and Diana when Diana returns home one night after fleeing her obsessive customer Myrin, who admitted to stalking her and then tried to force entry to her apartment, to find Ebony in bed with her boyfriend Lance. Diana chases Lance out with her gun, shooting at him several times. Diana threatens and taunts Ebony. When Diana feigns leaving, Ebony is hit when she opens the door and is thrown out the apartment.
Diana then begins dating Blue (Jamie Foxx), a DJ at the Player's Club. Meanwhile, Ebony is offered a gig to dance at Ronnie's brother Junior's (Samuel Monroe Jr.) bachelor party, under the pretense from Ronnie that other girls from the club will be dancing there, too (Ronnie herself understandably had no desire to strip for her brother). When Ebony realizes that she will be the only woman in a hotel room full of rough and horny men, she desperately tries calling Diana to come and pick her up, but Diana doesn't, still being mad at her.
Reggie and Clyde, both feeling insulted by Diana and Ebony from a previous encounter, lie to Junior that Ebony will have sex with him, claiming that they "ran a train" on her. Excited, Junior bursts in on Ebony while she is changing. Ebony resists, prompting Junior to brutally beat and rape her, leaving his friends to listen to it in full disgust and disbelief. Soon, Reggie, Clyde and the other guests leave, wanting no involvement with Junior anymore. When Ronnie discovers Ebony unconscious, she and Junior flee the hotel room as she scolds him. Later, Diana has a change of heart and she and Blue decide to check up on Ebony at the hotel, only to discover her bloody and unconscious body on a bed.
This proves to be the last straw to Diana, who was growing tired of the stripper game anyway. Angered, she grabs her gun and goes to the Players Club, where Ronnie and Tricks are hiding out. After scaring the other strippers away by firing a warning shot Diana gives the gun to Blue to cover her while she gets into a brutal fistfight with Ronnie, leaving Ronnie badly beaten. She quits in front of Dolla Bill, punches Tricks and leaves along with Blue.
Ronnie and Tricks are arrested by the police on charges of the rape of Ebony, and Junior had been arrested moments before. Later that night, Diana's timing proves to be perfect when St. Louis, comes to collect. He personally shoots up the club (though he does give warning to the customers beforehand, allowing them to leave). After his thugs grab Dolla, he is face to face with St. Louis' associate who had confronted him earlier and thrown into the trunk of his car. St. Louis has Brooklyn destroy the club with a LAW rocket.
Ebony, still sporting the bruises from her rape, now has a job working at the shoe store. Having been berated by two strippers who work at a new club, called Club Sugar Daddy's, with the same slogan that influenced her to strip, she firmly stands her ground. In the end, Diamond narrates that Ebony moved back to Tallahassee, FL to be with her mother. Blue is a top DJ at a radio station, and that he and Diamond are moving further in their relationship . Ronnie and Tricks got jobs at Club Sugar Daddy's after their release from jail. Junior is serving time in prison for raping Ebony, and that he never got married. Reggie and Clyde were last seen at the Freaknik in Atlanta. St. Louis is still "running the South" along with his crew Brooklyn and KC. Peters and Freeman are still harassing people all day. Little Man is Managing a Strip Club in Chicago. Dolla Bill was never heard from again (It can be safely assumed that he was murdered by St. Louis's men for his debts, as he was last seen being stuffed into the trunk of their car). Diamond is now a successful reporter.
- Bernie Mac as Dollar Bill: the dim owner of The Players Club who is threatened by a loan shark name St. Louis as Dollar Bill has yet to pay him. At one point earlier in the film, he was captured by Brooklyn and K.C. but escapes death when the two loan sharks are arrested.

I just started this new job, where as the designer I have to maintain the CSS file for our web app. Right now it spans almost 7000 lines, weights over 160kb and has hundreds of !important rules.
I would like to reorganize the file, split it into sub sections, clean it, and homogenize its syntax.
But it seems like a huge undertaking and the file and the app are so big and complex that I wonder if it is even doable without breaking something (and not seeing it).
I have audited the file using online tools, and it seems I can use some sort of automated refactoring without risking too much. I have also tried a few tools to check if selectors are actually used, the problem is that this web app is written completely in javascript, so the whole thing is dynamic and regular tools are practically unusable (no proper links to follow, no site map etc.)
Do you guys have any recommendations on how to proceed, where to start, and if it is even worth my time?

The Free Town of Christiania is an autonomous community of about 1,000 inhabitants in the centre of Copenhagen. Built as a squat for a hippy community in the 1970s, it is today a central node in the geography of activism, anarchism and alternative social life. This article analyses Christiania from the specific perspective of creativity and within the context of the 'creative city' debate. The Free Town is a lively innovative milieu, nurturing the arts, social experimentation, ideas and original architectural solutions. As such, it is becoming a more and more relevant space from the point of view of the market economy and in the promotion of the idea of a 'creative Copenhagen'. But I argue that much of its creative potential is connected to place-specific socioeconomic factors. In this sense, the Christiania experience troubles mainstream conceptions of creativity by revealing that creativity is both fluid and situated.

Hopefully you can appreciate the irony of Riley Hawk riding for the company owned by the guy that used to ride for his dad's company. And if that's not a neat story if you've every heard one, you had horrible unimaginative parents. But as the old saying goes Just because he's in the van doesn't mean he's on the team. Although he probably is.
And in case you haven't seen it yet, here's the photo that started it all.

An Alien symbol on the floor closely resembles this film's embryonic Alien logo.
