He was the founding father of the religious right.
When Jerry Falwell created the Moral Majority a quarter-century ago, many Christian fundamentalists eschewed the world of politics. But the Southern Baptist minister from Lynchburg, Va., launched a political movement that would help elect two presidents and sharpen America's cultural divide.
Falwell, who had a history of heart trouble, was found without a pulse in his office at Liberty University at midday Tuesday and pronounced dead at Lynchburg General Hospital an hour later. His doctor, Carl Moore, said he presumably died of a heart rhythm abnormality. He was 73.

"He will be remembered as one of the originators of the movement of conservative Christians, especially evangelical Protestants, to bring traditional values back into public policy by means of politics," said John Green, a political scientist at the University of Akron and author of The Faith Factor: How Religion Influences American Elections.
"He was at the genesis of the religious right," said Marshall Wittmann, legislative director of the Christian Coalition from 1993 to 1995 and now a veteran Capitol Hill aide.
Falwell also was a lightning rod. Critics say he crossed the Constitution's line between church and state and that he preached intolerance, particularly toward homosexuals. He drove moral issues to the top of the nation's political agenda and in the process contributed to the polarization of American politics.
"We will always remember him as a founder and leader of America's anti-gay industry, someone who exacerbated the nation's appalling response to the onslaught of the AIDS epidemic, someone who demonized and vilified us for political gain and someone who used religion to divide rather than unite our nation," said Matt Foreman, executive director of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, an advocacy group.
Barry Lynn, executive director of Americans United, which supports separation of church and state, praised Falwell as "a determined advocate for what he believed" but said he "manipulated a powerful pulpit in exchange for access to political power and promotion of a narrow range of moral concerns."
Falwell was ridiculed when the National Liberty Journal, which he edited, issued a warning to parents in 1999 that the Tinky Winky character in the Teletubbies children's show on PBS was advocating a gay lifestyle because he was purple, carried a purse and had an antenna shaped like an inverted triangle, a symbol of gay pride.
Most controversial of all were Falwell's comments three days after the Sept. 11 attacks in 2001. Falwell said "the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians … the ACLU (and) People for the American Way" were partly to blame for the terrorist attacks.
"The abortionists have got to bear some burden for this, because God will not be mocked," he said in an appearance on the Christian TV program The 700 Club.
As a furor erupted over his remarks, he amended them, saying that only terrorists and hijackers were responsible for 9/11.
"Some of the stark and harsh rhetoric of American fundamentalism was always readily on the lips of Dr. Falwell," said Michael Cromartie, director of the Ethics and Public Policy Center, a Washington think tank that studies religion and politics. Even so, "he was an important figure in igniting fundamentalists into a public-policy resource of many millions. That's not a small accomplishment."
Consider the speakers Falwell drew to Liberty University: Former House speaker Newt Gingrich is scheduled to address Saturday's commencement. Last year's speaker was Arizona Sen. John McCain.
McCain had scorched Falwell as an "agent of intolerance" during the 2000 presidential campaign but sought to repair relations as he prepared to reach out to conservative Christians for his 2008 bid.
"In this harsh world of politics, differences and disagreements are legion," Falwell said in an interview last year with USA TODAY when asked about McCain. "But only the foolish let them stay permanent."
He is survived by his wife of 49 years, Macel Pate, and three children — Jerry, Jeannie and Jonathan.
Son of 'an agnostic, an alcoholic, a bootlegger'
Falwell was born on Aug. 11, 1933, in Lynchburg, a city of 64,000 in central Virginia that he never really left, moving away only to attend college. His mother was a devout Christian, according to biographer Susan Harding. He described his father as "an agnostic, an alcoholic, a bootlegger."
Falwell said he was born again on Jan. 20, 1952, finding God at age 18. He had entered Lynchburg College in 1950 to study engineering. Two years later, he transferred to Baptist Bible College in Springfield, Mo.
In 1956, he came home to establish the Thomas Road Baptist Church in an abandoned bottle factory — it's now a megachurch with 22,000 members — and a week later started the Old Time Gospel Hour to broadcast his sermons on radio and, later, TV.
He founded Lynchburg Baptist College, now called Liberty University, in 1971. It has 7,700 students.
Falwell was friendly, outgoing, energetic and ambitious. Conservative commentator Cal Thomas recalls how he was swept into working for Falwell at the Moral Majority by "his strong personality, his deep convictions and his generosity." Falwell was smart and funny, Thomas says, and something of a practical joker.
Falwell's booming baritone voice made him a "master speaker," according to Harding, a University of Santa Cruz anthropologist who wrote The Book of Jerry Falwell. He was a buoyant fundamentalist who preached that all things were created by God in "six historic days," that Satan was the agent of evil in the world and that the Bible was entirely true, without error and authoritative in all matters.
At a time when some liberal ministers were joining the civil rights movement, Falwell argued that the clergy should stay out of politics.
"Nowhere are we commissioned to reform the externals," he said in a sermon in 1965. "I feel that we need to get off the streets and back into the pulpits and into our prayer rooms."
A decade later, his thinking had changed. "This idea of 'religion and politics don't mix' was invented by the devil to keep Christians from running their own country," he said in 1976.
He was ready to create a political organization to represent those who, like himself, were dismayed by the 1973 Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision recognizing abortion rights and by a popular culture that they felt glorified immorality and rejected God.
Paul Weyrich, president of the Free Congress Foundation and a founder of modern conservatism, recalls a meeting in the late 1970s at which Falwell discussed his plans.
"I said, 'Out there is what you might call a moral majority' " that holds similar views, Weyrich said. "Falwell said, 'Wait a minute.' He turned and said, 'That's the name of the organization.' "
The Moral Majority was groundbreaking, even revolutionary. It sought an activist role for fundamentalists who had seen politics as something to be avoided.
"Falwell was the Isaiah of that movement," said Richard Land, president of the Southern Baptists' Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission.
Outrage over Roe v. Wade was key to convincing evangelicals to become more political, Land said. It "altered the political landscape of the country, and Falwell was the first to respond to that earthquake."
Falwell forged an alliance with those of other beliefs, including Catholics and Jews — a step that appalled some fundamentalists. Bob Jones, founder of Bob Jones University in Greenville, S.C., was among those who denounced the idea.
"Historically, the fundamentalists feuded with Roman Catholics, with people outside the Christian faith," Green said. "They feuded with other evangelicals and they feuded with each other. For Falwell to come along and argue that people of different religious faiths should set aside their theological differences to cooperate in politics because they had common values was an extraordinary idea."
Falwell and others in his camp felt disillusioned by the shortcomings of the presidency of the born-again Jimmy Carter. They worked in 1980 to oust Carter and elect Ronald Reagan and conservatives to Congress.
At the end of the decade, the Moral Majority disbanded. "At the time, Falwell was quite frustrated," Green said. "But it had developed the idea of a broader religious coalition and this idea that religious traditionalists should be in politics. It had done its job."
The Moral Majority begat the Christian Coalition, led by Pat Robertson, who unsuccessfully sought the Republican presidential nomination in 1988.
Falwell's political influence had ebbed a bit in recent years, in part because of his penchant for making controversial comments. He wasn't asked to address the Republican National Convention in 2004, as he had four years earlier.
Even so, he was seen by McCain and other Republicans with presidential aspirations as an important ally in reaching the conservative Christians who have become the most reliable voting bloc in the GOP.
Falwell is credited with launching the effort that has put issues such as the teaching of evolution, same-sex marriage, abortion rights and stem cell research near the top of the mainstream political agenda. "Values voters" were viewed as a prize, the group that helped elect George W. Bush president in 2000 and 2004.
Falwell "was willing to go into the arena in the secular world and do battle over these values," said Bobby Welch, president of the 16 million-member Southern Baptist Convention.
"When we started Moral Majority, we were novices," Falwell said in an interview with CNN last week. "You could have gotten much of our preachers who were interested in public policy in a phone booth at the time. But it was an idea whose time was come."
Mobilizing the other side
His supporters were fervent. So were his critics.
In the 1980s, Falwell opposed imposing economic sanctions against South Africa's apartheid regime and criticized Nobel Peace Prize winner and Anglican Archbishop Desmond Tutu as "a phony." (He later apologized.) He supported Ferdinand Marcos, the deposed president of the Philippines, and railed against communism.
His greatest influence was on issues closer to home — opposing the Equal Rights Amendment, supporting the teaching of creationism in public schools and resisting gay rights.
Robert Kunst, a liberal activist from Miami Beach, began to clash with Falwell when Falwell joined forces with singer Anita Bryant in 1976 in a celebrated attempt to repeal a law in Dade County, Fla. It prohibited discrimination against gay men and lesbians in housing, public accommodation and employment.
In an interview with USA TODAY before Falwell's death, Kunst called Falwell an "anti-gay witch hunter" and a man with a "hateful heart." His activism against gay rights was so "venomous" that it helped mobilize homosexuals to fight back, Kunst said.
Even so, Kunst said the two men got along personally. The last time they saw each other was several years ago when Kunst was among two-dozen demonstrators outside a Baptist church in Palm Beach where Falwell was to speak. He held a sign that accused Falwell of "leading America's Taliban."
When Falwell saw Kunst, he came over to shake hands and chat for a moment. "He said, 'Hi, Bob,' and I said, 'Hey, Jerry, I'm still active,' and he said, 'I'm still active,' " Kunst said. "I said, 'Don't stop. After all, we have to keep using each other. There's a whole revolution going on here.' "

It's another hot and muggy June night, and I've been working all day, dealing with what I'll politely call "the public." I get home, thumb through my mail, and discard the three no interest for six months credit card offers and the 75% discount magazine subscriptions, save the various bills, filing them in my mental rolodex with the idea
I'll pay them immediately, knowing I'll wait for the "friendly reminder", at which point I'll overpay 20 cents, just to screw up their automated bookkeeping. After all, the most miniscule protests are the ones that fuel revolutions.
Anyway, it's been a rough day, and all I want to do is kick back with a glass of red wine and the soothing tones of the television. Don't misunderstand—I don't want to be sedated by "unscripted" shows that feign reality by placing misfits together in a controlled environment, or so-called game shows that offer the promise of millions if the contestants make a lucky guess, or even formulaic sitcoms still retreading premises that were already shopworn by the early seventies. Even the news programs seem like they're in reruns.
No—I need something else on nights like these, something to remind why I loved TV in the first place, why I rushed home from college classes so as not to miss the early anime Starblazers {known in Japan as Spaceship Yakamoto), why I fortified myself with copious amounts of caffeine to see those episodes of The Prisoner (which never seemed to air before 3AM), why I left work early to make sure I didn't miss an episode of 24, why I shuffled my schedule to recap Dexter.
Nights like these also remind me why broadband Internet is a wonderful invention (does anybody even remember dial-up?), and why I watch more and more TV on my computer. It's not that it's edging out TV As We Know It, but it is adding much-needed flavor to a broadcast soup that's gone stale. Go to any of the Big Four's websites—CBS, NBC, ABC, or FOX—and the homepage is decidedly more splashy than it was this time last year. They offer full episodes of their more popular series (as well as their struggling ones), and pepper their site with trivia, games and sundry items to entice viewers to watch their network, which, after all, is the most cutting edge of the four.
What it really means, though, is the Internet is making the traditional networks increasingly uncomfortable. As much as they like to say New Media is an unknown commodity (which was a large basis for the Writers' Strike), they're furiously circling their wagons for the invasion of a new way of watching TV. That new way is still climbing out of the primordial ooze, but it's already evolved legs. And it's learning, adapting the better TV of the past as it learns, inexorably carving a niche for itself in the evolutionary food chain. YouTube was arguably the first Internet network to capitalize on the cyberspace factor, and it remains entrenched in the Zeitgeist as the eminent force of New Media.
I certainly don't want to diss YouTube. But its "citizen journalism" approach is sort of like a scattergun. There's a lot of great content there, and it undeniably is a major force in our culture, influencing politics, entertainment, and even legal proceedings. It allows almost anyone to be a star, if even for the proverbial fifteen minutes. On the downside, it's often a breeding ground for would-be paparazzi and tabloid gossip. All in all, though, it's the perfect medium for our short attention span society. Whether a broadcast genius emerges from YouTube doesn't matter. That it provides a possible platform from which that genus may rise is what makes YouTube important.
At the other end of the spectrum are sites like Hulu, which was gobbled up by Universal (NBC) and News Corporation (FOX) by the time it uttered its first cry. As such, it's already become a promotional wing of the two behemoths, mirroring the content of the two parent sites, right down to full episodes being viewed "with limited commercial interruptions." What bothers me most about Hulu at this point is that it's full of promise, but it's mostly a tease. You get full episodes of shows like Heroes and Arrested Development, but only enough to whet your appetite—they're in random context, supplanted by clips. There's a very small library of full-length movies, but there again, the movie collection consists mostly of promo clips. Hulu has potential, but right now, it exists as a marketing tool for NBC and FOX.
Somewhere between the two extremes of corporate self-promotion and citizen journalism are sites like Joost, bridging the chasm between Old and New Media. As I mentioned in an earlier article, Joost is a commercial venture, and it has inked deals with CBS, Sony, and Warner (among others) for content. A major difference, though, is that Joost shows its content with "limited commercial interruptions." Sure, you occasionally get a little pop-up ad in the corner of the screen, but that's not nearly as annoying as full-fledged commercials. In fact, I'd say the content far outweighs the minor annoyances.
Since I last wrote about the site, not even a month ago, Joost has added some impressive content, certainly not the least of which is the entire series of David Lynch's cult classic Twin Peaks. The bizarre murder mystery serial was nothing short of a national phenomenon in the very early nineties, and it's still ahead of its time, nearly eighteen years after it was cancelled. If you've never seen it, you'll find yourself addicted to it. If you remember it, you'll remember why America wanted to know "Who Killed Laura Palmer?" Unlike other mysteries, where clues unravel the mystery, each episode of Twin Peaks complicated the mystery even more.
As cool as it is that current viewers don't have to wait an entire week to see what twists the next episode will bring, Twin Peaks isn't the only retro series Joost has to offer. You can also, if you're really a cultist, watch the entire run of Beverly Hills 90210, or view choice episodes of the highly stylized animated adventure Samurai Jack. In fact, you can see a lot of TV here. More importantly, though, is that Joost offers European content, short indie films, global news, and music videos you won't find on—say, MTV (as if you're ever going to see videos on MTV these days.)
With the exception of YouTube—where anything goes—Internet television is wrestling with its own potential. At this point, it's serving more as a promotional tool for the networks and studios. The networks are even airing original series on their websites, some of which are actually pretty good. While none of these series have actually made the television cut, it's easy to imagine a time in the not too distant future when that may be how series are test marketed. It's also not too difficult to see how the Internet, through actual viewing, and not silly save-the-show campaigns, might turn Nielsen on its ear, and set a new model for programming.
The Internet has already usurped the power of the once impenetrable fortresses of the studios. The upcoming 305, a Mad magazine send-up of 300 had its origins on YouTube, and is now the first viral video to be slated for a major studio production. Traditional television can't be far behind, especially since it has a history of taking its cues from the movies. Now they're faced with a new challenge—with the wealth of original programming on the Internet, anybody with any concept could be The Next Big Thing.
And that is going to force a rethinking of how business is done in La-La Land. It's not that television is going to be swallowed up by the Internet. What will happen is that the Internet, with all its faceless minions, will become a major player in how the networks shape their programming. The computer and the television will meld into one entity, and it will be so painless, we won't even realize it.
Let's hope we don't screw it up this time.Powered by Sidelines

We came together through the dream of Stan Gibson, a local musician, fan and compassionate humanitarian. He created a page on Facebook called "Baltimore Bands from the 70s 80s 90s" with the intention of bringing together musicians, fans, music venues and members of the vibrant golden age of LIVE music in the Baltimore Metro area. With a little help from his friends, HE BUILT IT about 5 years ago AND THEY CAME! We are a virtual community of 7,500+ avid lovers of LIVE music, and growing.
With the tremendous success of the Facebook page with membership growing daily, Stan dreamed of bringing the online community together in a LIVE music event! In October 2013, our first Stanstock event, this dream was realized and came to be known as STANSTOCK. After successful follow-up events in 2014 and 2015, Stanstock has become an annual Baltimore musical tradition. We have a humanitarian purpose - raising funds for cancer research and treatment and for wounded veteran rehabilitation. The results we produced over the past three events were beyond our imaginings. Relationships were renewed as bands, fans, and the nightclub community from "back in the day" were reunited. More importantly, however, we met our fund raising objectives and presented all net proceeds to two charities affiliated with Johns Hopkins Centers for Cancer Research and Treatment, and to the Catch A Lift veterans project. In 2016 we are partnering with The Hope and Peace Foundation on September 11th for a ceremony remembering not only those who died on 9/11 but also honoring those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in the wars since 9/11.
The dream continues. All musicians gather together and donate their time and talents to this worthy cause. All volunteer staff work on this project throughout the year pre-event and day of the event, donating their tireless support and energy to make STANSTOCK a success. We are happy to say that our Corporate Sponsorship is growing to include more support each year.
Children with cancer are fighting a life-and-death battle to regain their health and rightful place in the larger community. Wounded vets are struggling to regain control over their civilian lives.

Oh, how the girls screamed. They screamed and cried then screamed some more. For 90 minutes the most ear-piercing sound imaginable did not cease. The reason? JLS, boyband du jour, are in town.
In the final of the 2008 edition of The X Factor, Aston, Oritsé, JB and Marvin looked on as Alexandra Burke was crowned as the winner. Tonight, JLS are on top of the world. Since the talent show the boys have signed to Epic records, after a certain Mr Cowell passed on them, and have seen their eponymous debut album outsell Burke's Overcome by around two to one. They have had two No 1 singles and a No 1 album; they have received two MOBO awards; and they have collected three Brit nominations, including Best British Group. Burke is not doing too badly herself, but it is pretty clear who the real winners are.
The boys arrive on stage looking like Action Men. Or R'n'B Kens, if you will. They all sport sunglasses, leather and denim, accessorised with ripped muscles. Gone are the adolescent, matching coloured hoodies in which they paraded on The X-Factor – they have the urban pop star look nailed.
The best thing about the boys (apart from Marvin's arms) is their choreography. Their moves are slick, effortless and modern and they move about the stage with attitude. Aston is the stand-out performer and crowd favourite, arriving on stage for a Michael Jackson medley by doing a back flip from an upper level, before nonchalantly dusting off his shoulder and going straight into song.
But they're not all about the dancing. During the ballad section, the boys showcase the vocal ability which got them noticed in the first place. Songs like "Only Making Love" and "If I Ever" prove they can really sing.
Sure, there are some stomach-turningly cheesy moments, such as when a backdrop video projects close-ups of the boys' naked torsos, with the lyrics of "Kickstart" tattooed upon them. When the band do their signature move, of lifting their tops slowly to reveal their six packs (or in some cases, eight packs), it feels a little like a tacky hen night. But it's just saucy fun and it works. JLS have a sense of humour and the audience goes wild for it.
The guys also succeed in the rather arduous task of making every single girl in the room feel special. They point to specific girls and smile, kiss audience members' hands, wave at the hysterical crowd. Heck, I felt special by the time I left. Having been an anonymous face in a sea of thousands, that was no small feat.
The night is not without it problems, however. While the singles "Beat Again" and "Everybody in Love" are strong hits, there are more than a few lacklustre numbers complete with lazy titles: "Crazy For You", "Close To You", "Keep You". You get the idea. Many of their album tracks are forgettable fare and it takes some well chosen covers, like Rihanna's "Umbrella", to save the night. JLS's lyrics do not stray too far from talk of "pretty faces" and "beautiful girls", and the songs are peppered with plenty of "baby", but I'm pretty sure no-one was there for insightful poetic musings. It is a formula that works and JLS have seamlessly filled a need for a young, street boyband.
One thing is for sure – the boys have outgrown even such a sizeable venue as the Hammersmith Apollo. There is already talk of an arena tour, which really will be a show to see. And to invest in earplugs for.

putting power showmancers Brachel (don't worry, that obnoxious nickname will
only last as long as this article) up for elimination.
L to r: Rachel, Brendon, Ragan and Matt
Ragan, a seemingly masterful floater but also a pretty nice
guy, has just been voted the new saboteur by America. He graciously accepts.
Over the next two weeks, he must perform three pranks on the
houseguests to win $20,000. With the help of viewers submitting suggestions via
Twitter and Facebook, his first two pranks are fairly simple. By prerecording
two messages — one that attempts to split Brachel up and one that leads the
houseguests to believe Brachel may not go home despite how the roommates votes —
he sits back and watches the drama unfold.
The first prank doesn't bother Brachel but leads everyone to
believe Rachel-of-Brachel is the saboteur. The other prank, however, sends the
group reeling and provides Rachel with a moment (a very false moment) of
security. Ragan, you devil!
As Rachel cries over the pending doom of Brachel, Ragan
literally sings "hallelujah" in the confessional knowing that Rachel's grating
laugh and hair extensions will soon be walking off into the slickly-produced
Ragan does his Rachel impression
Brendon makes an attempt to "take a bullet" for Rachel by
going apesh** on the other houseguests. At one point, he goes after Ragan in an
angry rant that's bleeped out but we can safely assume it was about Ragan's
sexuality. Ragan calmly tells Brendon he's a Neanderthal.
I like you Ragan. I really
like you.
Because Brendon's plan only serves to make him powerless in
the house, the group sends our cocktail waitress/chemist Rachel home and Ragan
makes it another week. Watch your back, Brigade.
Real World
This week, the show is mercifully light on Ryan. Not to
worry, his few moments are filled with the usual bits of Ryan gems we've come
to know and, um, love.
Strangely, friends, we have a new homophobe in the house:
Knight. After weeks of treating out Preston
with respect, the hockey player manages to call him a "homo" several times.
Thankfully he has the class to do so behind his back, but we're
shocked to learn that gay ally Jemmye does little to defend Preston
during his hate-filled rants. However, we soon discover that Jemmye's previous
abusive boyfriend has made her powerless to speak up for herself or those she
loves, which, at least in my eyes, gives her a pass for another week.
Preston, Ashlee, and Sahar all head to a Lady Gaga concert
and Preston goes full-on drag for the show.
Knight later reminds Preston that while being
gay is okay, wearing a dress is just too much. "Preston
knows I'm not a homophobe, but dressing up and wearing a bra and a wig and
makeup is just — he's taking it too far."
Knight (left) is not keen on Preston doing drag
Thanks for letting us know that there are acceptable levels
of gay.
Also, does anyone else think that Knight is drunk most of
the time?
Knight later confided in Ryan that during a trip to the
post-Katrina Musician's Village — where they assist Habitat for Humanity in
building a house without Ryan, who decides to sleep in —t hat he made Preston
Preston was actually upset
over his inability to be useful when it comes to power tools and all things
carpenter-adjacent. Ryan asked how he knew this. Knight says, "I know when I
make a homo cry." (MTV bleeped out the "homo" but upon several viewings, I
believe this is the word he used.)
I'll admit Preston is
becoming a bit of a whiner, but c'mon Knight. The nation (especially my
godmother) loves you and your doughy, "aw, shucks" self. Don't disappoint us by
going for the easy shots and lowering the bar for heterosexual males.
I don't pretend to fully comprehend the younger generation
but are we really still this homophobic in 2010? Shouldn't we be focusing our
anger where it belongs? We have real evil
to fight: Hate. Poverty. Crime. Julie Chen.
The Fabulous Beekman Boys
I was out with friends once when I was introduced to a guy
that was perfectly my type (read: breathing) and we hit it off. The
conversation flowed like champagne in one of those tacky wedding champagne
fountains. This was chemistry.
As I was designing our master suite in our mountain cottage,
his boyfriend walked up. The man was strikingly bizarre. He couldn't hold a
conversation and seemed a bit socially unwell. After the couple left, I asked
my friend — who knew them well — what my new husband could possibly see in him.
My friend responded, "Maybe that's what he's into."
Watching the well-groomed Beekman boys on their perfect
farm, with their perfect goats (and the strangely-passionate-for-goats
caretaker, Farmer John), several questions came to mind: "Why isn't Josh with
me? What does he see in Brent?" "Is it possible to get rich recapping reality
Brent (left) and Josh
In this episode, Brent decides to open a new store so that
all of his goods are in one location. He asks Josh what he thinks about the
idea. Before Josh can offer his two cents, Brent informs him that he's already
rented the place and the opening is in a couple weeks.
Dear readers, my bags would be packed.
As the episode progresses, we discover the two are on the
cusp of their ten-year anniversary. We're also reminded that they've both
agreed to make enormous sacrifices over the past year, living mostly separate
lives — Brent on the farm and Josh in the city during the week — so that they
could have a great life together in the country one day.
In a touching moment, Josh tears up as he tells us how he
understands the sacrifice but how it is hard being away from someone he loves
so much.
So, I get it. Maybe Brent isn't as finicky and OCD-ish as
the camera portrays. And maybe, just maybe, that's what Josh is into.
Brent does redeem himself by surprising Josh in the city
with chocolates, flowers, and a trip to a Chinese restaurant, recreating the
first date they shared which was set up by Josh. As spring rolls around, the
flowers bloom, the new store opens, and Josh and Brent continue their sweet
And Farmer John continues his bizarre love of goats.
RuPaul's Drag U
I have a theory: Every reality show would be better with
Jujubee. Imagine the backstabbing Big Brother house with this fiery pistol
amongst its ranks.
That backstabbing would end snap because, well, Jujubee would cut a b****.
Raven (left) and Jujubee
This week, Ru brings in a very special set of ladies — his
real-life sisters. Rozy, Renetta, and Ranae are delightful ladies who all
clearly adore their brother.
Each of them are, admittedly, a bit plain. (I assume this is
for dramatic effect when they get their drag on and strut down the catwalk. I
mean, really, haven't any of them heard of Cover Girl? The makeup, not the
lyrics to their brother's hit song.)
Rozy, Renetta, and Renae are paired up with Drag U
professors Raven, Jujubee, and Shannel, respectively.
Each girl's picture is submitted to the almighty
"dragulator" where Rozy morphs into Bianca Dinkins, Renetta is Starbooty, and
Renae becomes Cupcake. The usual meetings with the queens takes place, complete
with really funny asides by Jujubee (seriously, Ju, call me.)
We get a few nice moments as each of the real girls meet
with Ru to discuss their progress. Renetta even gets a few tears from Ru as he
recalls sweet childhood memories.
The judges are pretty harsh — something I appreciated
considering how uncharacteristically nice the queens were during the process.
With the help of visiting professor Kelly Osborne, Renae (aka Cupcake) moves to
the head of the class to win the show. In the beginning, none of the sisters
really looked like Ru but after the makeovers, they all could be one happy drag
Ru's sisters all gussied up
I'm still a little on edge about Ru's need to change the
English language so that it better matches her show. I was particularly shocked
that Ru decided to take one of the best catchphrases from her fun show Drag
Race and mutate it into the very disconcerting "Don't flunk it up."
But I forgive you Ru, but please, give me less Raven. And
more Jujubee.
The Rachel Zoe
It's Golden Globe madness at the house of Team Zoe. It
occurs to me that while Rachel is incredibly fashion savvy, those of us looking
to find out what's hot should probably go elsewhere.
By the time the episodes air, the flowing, well-draped winds
of fashion have already shifted. Remember this year's Golden Globes? Remember
those awful diamond tumors hanging off of the shoulder and hip of Drew Barrymore's
Versace gown?
Drew Barrymore
Style director Brad Goreski takes newbie Ashley under his
wings in an attempt to make sure she doesn't have the same awful experience he
had as the green assistant under Taylor.
There is a lot of Taylor bashing in this episode. At one point,
Brad points out how different Ashley is from Taylor, saying she hasn't stolen anything
yet. Meow.
Team Zoe is given the task of dressing Kate Hudson, Cameron
Diaz, Jennifer Garner, Molly Sims, and recently-seen-in-Precious Paula Patton,
who is pregnant. Ashley cuts her awards show teeth on Paula. If I was Ms.
Patton, I would not be amused.
Luckily for Paula, Ashley knows what she's doing and makes
her look like a million bucks. As was the case in the previous season, we catch
a glimpse of hubby Rodger who might as well be wearing parachute pants when it
comes to Rachel and award season.
He decides he's had enough of "Rachel and her gay entourage"
and takes his stylish scarf, Justin Bieber hair, and 500 pounds of jewelry over
to his buddy's house to watch the big game. (Don't ask what big game. I assume
one that involves a goal post or a bat or something.)
As always, Rachel and company work down to the wire but pull
it off with aplomb. We did get to see Brad create his new look sans bowties and
then work out with his trainer. Unfortunately, he kept his shirt on. I guess
even stylish people have bad days.

Is Madonna's New Film Soft on Nazis?
Madonna brought Kabbalah to the masses, but New York magazine still wonders whether her new movie might have a "Jewish problem."
Last week, the singer attended the Venice Film Festival premiere of "W.E.," her second effort as a director. Early reviews were mostly abysmal, but the film's quality is only part of the story.
Co-written Madonna, the movie apparently offers a fawning vision of Wallis Simpson, the American divorcee who famously inspired England's King Edward VIII to give up the throne. The movie ignores the pair's friendly relationship with Hitler, which included a visit to his Berchtesgaden retreat in 1937, well after the nature of his regime became clear.
If that weren't enough, the end credits thank anti-Semitism–spewing designer John Galliano — not to mention Leni Riefenstahl, the director who glorified the Nazis in some of history's most influential propaganda films.
In addition to its terrible reviews and questionable end credits, the film also apparently spells Riefenstahl's name wrong.

The swamps to the east of New Orleans are an exciting place for a boy. Nine-year-old Terence "Skid" Beaumont is the youngest of four brothers. His father, Alrick, decided to build a shack here, prompted by a vision after a drunken bender. He was convinced he was set to make a killing from his property speculation, because New Orleans was bound to expand over the mire. That never happened and so the Beaumonts are stuck in the mud.
Alrick earns a living mending electrical appliances, but then he vanishes to the Big Easy and leaves his family to get by as best they can. Skid regales us with their picaresque battles against poverty amid the mosquitoes – not to mention alligators and surprise sinkholes. More hazardous still are the Benet brothers, who like pointing guns at Skid and his siblings.
Yet Skid's main concern is whether his brother Frico has magical powers: he suspects Frico can fix things and cure people by sketching their flaws away. When Valerie, his long-suffering mother, discovers Skid's obsession she takes him to a psychiatrist but Skid's faith in Frico persists .
Skid is irrepressible and precocious, from a Southern lineage that harks back to Scout Finch and Tom Sawyer. Roland Watson-Grant gives Skid a down-home vernacular that is markedly acute, rather than cute. Unimpressed by spectacular sunsets over the bayou, he wonders "why God spent so much time decoratin' a day that was dyin'".
Despite Skid's verbal talents, he is not the most reliable narrator, and so Watson-Grant's variant of magical realism keeps us guessing. While the swamp might be a realm with its own realities, the machinations of mainstream society continue in the big city beyond the mud.
The real threats to the Beaumonts appear to be corporate, rather than supernatural, in the form of businesses prospecting for gas. Skid has to realise that the problems of the swamps are not about to be fixed with a few pen-strokes. But if the broken parts of life cannot always be mended, most of it is still more than good enough, in these rollicking chronicles from the sticky side of Louisiana.

Of the £950 million provided for additional support with child care, only £200 million will go to low to middle income families on Tax Credits or Universal Credit.
The UK government's childcare voucher proposals will not help those most in need in the midst of huge further cuts the chancellor is planning, say critics.
The Children's Society and 38 Degrees have joined forces to call on the government to make free school meals available to all children in poverty.
Alarmingly low levels of asylum support are forcing thousands of children and their families seeking safety in the UK into severe poverty.
The chief executive of the Children's Society says that the Welfare Benefits Uprating Bill will make life much harder for millions of people.
The number of children living in vulnerable families in Britain will rise markedly to over one million by 2051, unless critical action is taken, say charities.
The Anglican Archbishop of York is among those backing calls from charities to make sure that all children living with poverty can get a free school meal.
Over half of all school children living in poverty in England, 1.2 million, are not getting free school meals, says shocking new research by the Children's Society.

Google's Android Market is better than the Apple App StoreSubmitted by fieldyweb on Thursday 24th of November 2011 11:44:39 PM Filed under
With the battle for the mobile space heating up and Apple and Google supplying the outright elite of the pack with IOS and Android respectively.
Battles such as this are won and lost with Apps, Palm, Blackberry both have found that despite having quality apps for the usual suspects, the quantity is a part of the reason why, in Palms case specifically a superior Mobile OS has limped in every time (ok, poort hardware, lacklustre marketing, and a terrible price point all caused HP/Palm WebOS issues)
When it comes to the App stores of IOS and Android i belive Android has the edge for a few simple reasons.

Recently a female writer for the New York Post published an ode to catcalling. Whenever she walks past a construction site and hears that "wolf whistle," she feels "over the moon." "My ego and I can't fit through the door!" she writes. This unfortunate bit of trolling met with the derision it deserved. As it turns out, many actual women aren't over the moon about being harassed by strangers. .
Now, no less an authority than Playboy has published an instructional guide to the dos and don'ts of this offensive and unambiguously annoying verbiage. At first glance the infographic, "Should You Catcall Her," created by graphic designer Shea Strauss, suggests that there might be some circumstances where it's okay to shout at women on the street.
"Is that booty bangin'?" the chart asks, ominously. "Does she have legs that go on for days?" Ugh.
But on closer inspection, the Playboy position may not meet your expectations. Check it out below.

SPORTS PEOPLE: FOOTBALL; Moore's Sentencing Set
Published: July 16, 1993
He's expected at training camp next week and should be in shape for the Giants' opener against the Bears on Sept. 5, but offensive lineman ERIC MOORE may have to take some time off after that. He has a date in Federal court in Atlanta on Sept. 9 for sentencing on a conviction for possession of steroids.
Moore, who was indicted in January on a series of felony charges, including possession with intent to distribute steroids and human growth hormones, was allowed to plead guilty to a misdemeanor count of simple possession on June 24. He can be sentenced to as little as probation or as much as a year in prison, but even if he gets the lightest sentence, his troubles won't be over. He will still have to answer to the National Football League.

Asda, the UK's second-largest grocer, has promoted Andy Clarke to chief operating officer, as it simplifies the structure of its senior executives.
The promotion comes as Asda is expected to today unveil like-for-like sales growth, excluding fuel, of more than 7 per cent for its fourth quarter of 2008.
The grocer has added logistics to the remit of Mr Clarke, who was previously retail director, and is now accountable for all operations.
Asda has also changed the job titles of the group trading director Darren Blackhurst to chief merchandising officer and that of marketing director Rick Bendel to chief marketing officer, to bring it more in line with parent Wal-Mart's management structure.
The promotion of Mr Clarke will add to speculation about who may eventually replace Andy Bond, the current chief executive. Mr Bond has said that he will not stay in his current job beyond 2012. Some have tipped Mr Bond as a contender for the top job at Marks & Spencer once Sir Stuart Rose retires, although other sources believe he may take a wider international role within Wal-Mart.
By giving Mr Clarke the logistics brief, Asda has freed up Doug Gurr, its executive development director, to focus on new development areas, such as Asda's e-commerce site and financial services business.

If you did not know, we are also a few doctors that used to be in a rehabilitation clinic and we had quite a few patients throughout our years being doctors. We had one patient that really stood out though. It was Mike's fifth year of being a rehab doctor and he had a patient named Thomas. Thomas had One of the worst alcohol abuse cases that Mike had ever seen in his life. Thomas was at the brink of death, just holding on by a thread. It is a miracle that he was still alive and made it to rehab. There was one night when he got to .8 BAC and had a seizure and fell down the stairs. Mike was surprised that he was alive after getting his blood alcohol content to nearly 80%. That is completely unheard of. Most people die when they hit about 50 or 60% and it is amazing that he did not get I'll call poisoning.
Thomas came into rehab on his own free will and nobody had forced him or encouraged him to go. All his family had given up on him and sincerely thought to that he was not going to make it until one day he saw one of his friends die from the exact same thing and it completely changed his mind. He was still severely addicted to the alcohol though, so he wasn't able to Completely shut out the addiction without help. So Mike helped him and Thomas did get better. It was a long hard road but they both made it happen together and that was the most memorable patient that Mike ever had. They both created such a good relationship back to that moment and they are friends to this day. Thomas has come so far in the past 20 years since his alcohol abuse and he has been sober for 23 years now. He now rests in the nice city of Sacramento and owns a pool building company called SacPoolBuilder.com is able to become very successful from the time he was in need.
We will always remember Thomas because he is one of the few that was able to complete rehabilitation act or just his first time. He was ready to go on his own but the physical addiction was still there and all he needed was Mike's help to guide him along the way.
Thomas also speaks out too many AAA groups and kids around the nation about alcohol abuse and the negative effects of it. He has dedicated part of his life to being an activist of helping stop alcohol abuse in today's society. He has really become a productive member of society since he was addicted to alcohol nearly 20 years ago.
Go support him and his website because he has been able to give us the inspiration to write this post about him. This post is completely dedicated to Thomas and his transformation into becoming a great person.
This video below that we are sharing explains a case that is similar to Thomases in the road to recovery. So definitely make sure to look at it and you'll get some great information off of this video.

Next to the Word of God, the noble art of music is the greatest treasure in the world.Martin Luther

Loved this tour! The stop at the Horseshoe Bend was incredible, short hike up to it. Before our Navajo guided tour, we were treated to authentic music and hoop dance. The Antelope Canyon was breathtaking, our guide was super knowledgeable and funny. Don and #39;t miss this tour!
The tour was lovely and seeing the Horseshoe bend was mindblowing
Antelope canyon is incredible. The sandstone is beautiful and the pictures are beautiful. GLen canyon is near the dam so you get to see both. Also, got to see horseshoe bend which is a bit of a hike but worth it. The drive out through the painted desert is breathtaking.
Tour was great! Antelope Canyon not to be missed. Our tour guide JR was very knowledgeable and full of stories. Definitely would recommend but just prepare for long day--12hours. Only wish we could have stopped at a few more of the local Navajo stands along route vs Cameron trading post.
Antelope canyon is an incredible place. Navajo guide led the tour. Explained customs of the Navajo people. He also helped with photos. The canyon is absolutely spectacular. Our driver for the trip was exceptionally knowledgeable about the geology, plant and animal life encountered on the way. Also stopped at Horseshoe Bend and Glen Canyon Dam, and both places were remarkable! Thank you for such a great trip!
Everything was great. The tour guide and the itinerary were both perfect. The bus was comfortable and the box lunch was good. This was a very positive experience and worth the money paid. Thank you!
Spectacular, the tour guide belongs to the Navajo Nation, she had a lot of knowledge. I really want to come back!! enjoy!!
Our tour guide Sheldon was full of knowledge and energy - great guide! The sites of Antelope Canyon were incredible a must see trip for anyone visiting AZ. Glen Canyon Horsebend was a nice walk and amazing sight to see. The Tour was a long day of driving. But broken up with stops.
The tour was great, the tour guide was very knowledgeable and I was able to take some amazing photo's.
Diana U United States of ...
Our tour guide JR was awesome! The tour was absolutely wonderful. Beautiful!
Highly recommend, beautiful
Fabulous trip. Our guide was fabulous
My husband and I loved this tour! The sights were amazing - so beautiful. Our Navajo guide at Antelope Canyon, Leonard Nez, was wonderful. He even spoke to my husband in Japanese! He made the experience so much fun.
Irene is quite the entertainer and so knowledgeable with every picture taking device from ipads to complex Canon super lens cameras to get the most out of the canyon photos. Corey was the most informative driver as his experiences in AZ are first-hand. It was a wonderful day; we saw so much that we just would have missed had we been on our own. If we get to AZ again we'll definitely book another tour. The Fishels
This tour was amazing!
Kathleen R USA
Very cool. It's a long drive, but worth doing. The guide knew where to take all the best photos.
It was so amazing! I loved it! Would go again. Friendly driver with lots of interesting informations...
It was very good. The way to go to destination was little bit far but the vehicle was comfortable.
Antelope canyon was beautiful but clowded and there were lots of bad mannered people who were taking photo.
In addition, I'm Japanese though, if you weren't able to speak English, this tour might be difficult. However, driver was very friendly and tour was really good.
Excellent Tour! If you are lucky enough to get Ezra as your Tour Guide you will be very pleased! He was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Beautiful area and great tour!
I personally found the Antelope Canyon tour to be breath taking. The formations were in so many different shapes & sizes. Also, during certain times you can find a light beam coming in through certain cracks in the ceiling inside of the canyon. My favorite part was the beautiful & breath taking pictures of Antelope Canyon that I was able to take.
I loved that the guide was extremely knowledgeable and entertaining, he was able to keep a running dialog for almost the entire tour! The views were spectacular at every spot and a photographer's dream come true.
This is a full day tour, starting with pick up at your hotel in Sedona or Flagstaff. Our tour bus was all people from Sedona. Since it is about a 3 hour ride to the Canyon, the guide shares a lot of information about each area as we pass through it. Our guide had lots of great info about the history of the area and how it got to it's present state. That made the ride go by quickly. The bus had full length windows with plenty of opportunity to take photos of the scenery along the way. Antelope Canyon itself can't be described. It is beautiful and constantly changing. We changed to a Navaho Indian guide and she was knowledgable not only about the canyon, but on how to use your cameras to get the best shots. She set everyone's cameras to the correct settings plus took photos for them. The ride back was also enjoyable after a picnic lunch at Horseshoe Bend. Another tour that is a photographer's dream but has a lot for the non-photographer as well.
This was a one of a kind experience, never seen anyplace like it!
Fantastic photographic opportunities, and great fun!
Steve was a good tour guide, including leading us to the picture of a lifetime at Horseshoe Bend. The van's audio system needs work to make him audible in the back.

Very Good 4.0Result from 1 customer reviews
This was a very comfortable way to see the sights of London. I am so thankful my friend recommended it. There are so many sites to see that I am glad I only bought one optional tour on the London eye. I almost purchased a tour for the Big Ben Clocktower. However I would not have had time for that one also. In March 2013 the changing of the guard at Buckingham palace is on even days at 11:30. Boy what a crowd. If you want a good view you should be there early and I read that the best of view is from the statue across the road. By the time I went down to Buckingham palace for the changing of the guard and then took the ride on the London Eye, walked around the Parliament buildings and West Minister Abby and took the boat cruise on the river I was pretty well done. Then it was nice to ride the bus and see the other sights of the town.
The arrangements were very easy to make both online and on the street. The buses were very comfortable but the best view is on top. It can be pretty cold up there but there are some covered seats

Eliza: Mr. Hoffman was a grown man who had been out into the world a long time.
He had access to help if he had the will power, and the desire to try and do away with his drug habit. The drugs wasn't helping the will power.
He was the one who chose to go the other route, he chose how it might end.
The only ones I feel sorry for are the children he left behind.
The movie people who are crying about the mans death, should let this death be a lesson, and it might help them think about getting help for their own probable drug habit.

Lawmakers in Oregon's House voted Thursday in favor of allowing teachers to buy soda and candy in the teacher's lounge that their students are unable to purchase in school. Lawmakers said a measure that passed in 2007, banning unhealthy food from being sold in schools, was never meant to encompass what teachers could buy in their break room.

The sexy retired athlete still gets British women revved up and has been named the ultimate Valentine's Day date in a poll of British babes.
The retired soccer star topped a new poll from toptable to find British women's dream dinner companion on the most romantic day of the year, scoring 18 per cent of the vote.
Bradley Cooper (14%), Ryan Gosling (13%) and Tom Hardy (8%) were also in the running to be crowned the celebrity most likely to set women's hearts aflutter on February 14.
Meanwhile, 22 percent of men would like to be wined and dined by 'This Morning' presenter Holly Willoughby, with her girl-next-door charms proving more popular than runners up Kelly Brook, Megan Fox and Jennifer Lawrence.
It also appears looks aren't everything, since 64 per cent of survey respondents would choose conversation over good looks in their dream date.
Whilst a romantic rendez-vous with hunky father-of-four David is unlikely, those looking for love can book a table for the special day thanks to the toptable app, which has rounded up restaurants offering specials for the day and weekend.
The toptable Valentine's survey of 2,000 adults was carried out by OnePoll between 3 February and 5 February 2014.
