text: It requires a bit of digging, but the folks at G4 have managed to deduce that the new rumble-capable PS3 controller (no surprise) will have a much more sophisticated rumbility (yes, we know that's not really a word) than any PS variant to date. When delving into the 1up.com preview of Metal Gear Solid 4, the writers noted: "As explosions rattled around Snake, we could actually feel the direction from which they were coming based on what part of the controller vibrated." Further digging suggests variable vibration, too. For those who have groaned for a PS3 rumble-controller out of the gate, it looks like it may have been worth the wait.

Is the 991 (or 998 depending on who you talk to) getting some botox? For years, Porsche enthusiasts have rumbled that Stuttgart was working on a Carrera-based Supersport 911 with a whale tail that would carry the 998 name. Based on the booty tail cover, quad exhausts and turbo whine, you'd think that car was the caboose on this convoy. Our sources tell us it's not. Instead, what you're seeing is the camouflage on the next 911 turbo. Porsche has to make it bigger than the actual wing because the Turbo wing moves. That makes sense. Advertisement Advertisement So why was it tooling about on the streets of Beverly Hills? Likely because hot weather testing went on in Death Valley last week. These Porsches could be being driven back to the port for shipping. What we do know is at least one of the leading cars is a Boxster with some strategically placed tape and no badges. But, although it was spotted in L.A., thanks to the recent release of the new Spyder, our best guess is we won't be seeing the latest facelift for that particular star in time for the L.A. Auto Show.Reply113 repliesLeave a reply

Danne D:
The funny part is hydrox actually came first. (Oreos actually came out as a knock off of them - but oreos are better). Hydrox was chosen as a modern sounding name. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrox "Its name was formed from the atomic elements which make up pure water: hydrogen and oxygen." | |

The worst insult that someone has ever given to me was last week by one of my students. The kid asked me how old I was. I told him, "23". Then the kid said "Damn, you're old!" | |

This was marketing in 1908. (Hydrox) It's also why Oreo kicked it's ass. Now the folks at Coke had it right back then as they totally sold the whole cocaine angle... | |

Community Discussion Panel Next Week
The Urban Studies Majors Committee is sponsoring a community forum to address the plans for the relocation of the campus bookstore and the redevelopment of the Arlington Business District. A panel of college representatives will be present to provide information and a variety of perspectives on the ongoing plans. There will be the opportunity for open discussion – so please bring any questions, concerns or ideas you may have.
Wednesday, April 2nd
5:30 pm, UpC
Please contact firstname.lastname@example.com with any questions.
- -
The panelists are still being finalized, we're told.
CLICK HERE for the Facebook event.
Also CLICK HERE and HERE for our two previous posts on opposition to the bookstore proposal.
UPDATE: The panel will be a community discussion, not only in favor of "opposition." We apologize for the earlier post title labeling it "Opposition Panel."

please stop misinforming people. i don't think this is an "opposition" panel. it's an information panel! since when has being informed been opposition??
- Anonymous said...
this panel is ridiculous. the decision has been made. second guessing administrators when students have no representation is one thing, but the whole vsa has been in on this...
- Anonymous said...
the vsa doesn't represent students. they represent the same number of students as there are students in the vsa. i only know one person on it, and he's a tool. yes, complain that if i'm so upset with the job they're doing i should run. truth is, i have better things to do with my time than be the administration's bitch. and i always will retain my right to disagree, particularly when you invite Barnes and Nobles next door to a neighborhood bookstore.
- Andrew Bennett said...
I want to thank the Urban Studies majors for putting the panel together. 4:44 is right; from what I have heard, the event should be a fruitful discussion and not an "opposition panel."
As to 4:52's point, there are lots of important decisions that still need to be made. Also, I want to ask people to come out to the event so that the VSA reps involved, myself included, can better represent the student perspective. I am eager to hear the ideas and concerns students have and to bring them to the table. - 3/25/08, 5:11 PM
- Anonymous said...
5:00 - yeah, you have a right to disagree, except this is an unusual case.
as andrew explained, this decision was a business deal and thus had to be kept quiet, since talking about contracts and such in the open is unprofessional when companies are bidding against one another. so, students had elected representatives. you are complaining about a decision made by your representatives, which is fine, except that there was no way for you to intervene when it mattered. bitching about it now doesn't do anything.
besides, there is NOTHING wrong with barnes and noble. - 3/25/08, 5:12 PM
- Anonymous said...
5:12, it's not about Barnes and Nobles. This isn't Killer Coke Part II. There are just many of us who would rather not place a major chain store next to a small bookstore-- and we're the same people who advocate WVKR playing independent music instead of the same stuff hyped up by the Big Four.
Small business are the lifeblood of the art world. - 3/25/08, 5:28 PM
- Anonymous said...
... this panel isn't for bitching, it's for TELLING PEOPLE WHAT IS GOING ON, because clearly there's a lot of confusion and misinformation out there. and mads PLEASE change the title of this post.
also, 4:52, putting so much faith in representative government is, sry2say, a bit sad and naive. look at this country!! look at EVERY country!!! also, the whole vsa has NOT been in on this. do you mean the exec? council? the special committees put together by the board of trustees? who are you referring to? how do you know the whole vsa is in on this? fyi WE are the vsa. every student is the vsa, and as far as i know, i haven't been in on this.
also, i think responsible citizens SHOULD second-guess administrators even if we DO have representation, but that is a separate point all together.
the decision has been made to move the bookstore there, yes, but they're still waiting on bookstore bids (as far as i know). so in that sense, the barnes and noble aspect of it hasn't been made.
if you guys want to know what's wrong with big bookstores:
- prime space (floor, shelf, wall, etc) in chain bookstores is BOUGHT by big publishers. this has a profound influence on the way people think, the information that the masses absorb. it's no coincidence that the SAME BOOKS are at the front of every b&n! as a college and a place of learning, i don't think vassar should be complicit in these processes.

i'm not saying that this is a conspiracy, but as a site of knowledge production i think it's important that we don't SELL OUT, for lack of a better phrase. - 3/25/08, 6:04 PM

5:00 i agree.
- Anonymous said...
i don't really care whether it's a barnes and noble or an independent bookstore. as long as it looks good and bestows a wealthier, cleaner image in an area with so many decrepit buildings and businesses. the brand name isn't what matters, so long as the new bookstore adds that certain charm and elegance to the area surrounding us.

I have a question:
What's wrong with the Raymond ave/Collegeview district the way it is? This is the type of neighborhood I grew up in... so it seems normal to me.
What are people looking for? A versace store? - 3/25/08, 11:26 PM
- Anonymous said...
I think the problem with the area is twofold: first, so many buildings in the short strip along raymond are gross looking. they haven't been painted in forever, the sidewalks are cracked, the windows are smudged, and there aren't enough attractive awnings and fancy signs (to make it look more commercial). These physical issues are especially concerning along Main Street, which is further from our college but still within the range that visitors see it as they approach.
The second problem in this area is the types of businesses. They're too small, both physically and in selection. I think students would like to see more brand names around the area. i'm not saying 100% big corporations, but just a few 'real' businesses closer to the college. those could be restaurants (an olive garden on raymond?) or stores (a computer store, maybe). In other words, larger businesses that serve better purposes, and perhaps most importantly, look like they should be next to a school like vassar. let me be clear - that doesn't have to mean circuit city or another box store. it could be an indpendent local business, since people seem to like locals places so much. the crucial feature is that it has to look presentable, charming, and extremely well kept from the outside. - 3/25/08, 11:43 PM

Yeeeaaahh i love starbucks teas. we should ask the vsa to ask the administration to solicit starbucks to open up a store on raymond!! it could go right where that ugly dollar store is now.
- Anonymous said...
the comments in here make me very mad because it seems vassar has recruited and enrolled some very very entitled students. we're here for FOUR YEARS--residents are here for life. we have to stop thinking so vassar-centrically because a lot of the stores here actually cater to the demographic of people who actually live here, and they reflect that! i.e. dollar stores, consignment shops, laundry, fax/copy places.
there is no need for an olive garden here. marco's pizza is great.

"if you wanted to go to live in a suburb, then you should have gone to school in a suburb."
I hate arguments like these. It's basically saying, "we should be content with the status quo. vassar has flaws and we shouldn't bother to fix them, and if you want to fix them, you should have gone to harvard."
i disagree. one of the biggest flaws vassar has - one mentioned in pretty much every college guidebook that I read last year - is that the area around here sucks. it's not as nice as the areas around other small liberal arts colleges. this is something that we should do everything in our power to fix. because even if "we" are only here for 4 years, vassar will be here a lot longer. and our success in life is linked in part to vassar's reputation. it's in our interests to make vassar as wonderful as possible, and that means surrounding it with the nicest commercial district possible. - 3/25/08, 11:58 PM
- Anonymous said...
It's troubling to see how many Vassar students are completely self-interested, self-absorbed, and oblivious to their own privilege.
And this school is branded as 'liberal'? Yikes. - 3/26/08, 12:42 AM
- Anonymous said...
vassar is extremely liberal. but liberal doesn't have to mean that we're so outward looking that we stop caring about what people think as they drive up to vassar. it doesn't have to mean that we stop caring about the economic rejuvenation of the lackluster, falling-apart businesses around us.
let's not make this into a conservative, "big business rules" vs. liberal, "privileged people suck" argument. instead, let's focus on what's best for the image of vassar and for future vassar students, since as a previous poster said, our futures are very much tied to the success and reputation of this school. in that regard, this bookstore and the general rejuvenation of the area around the college is undoubtedly in our interest. - 3/26/08, 12:58 AM
- Anonymous said...
i don't think that 11:54 is saying they're "content with the status quo," i think they're saying that they can respect the fact that we're part of a larger community that we might not fully understand.
yeah, we have work to do. there are things that could be better. but what better is shouldn't be decided solely by vassar or solely by the community.
what's sad is that there's no real structure in place to give birth to those discussions. chances are, things around the school are decided solely by vassar or solely by the community.
and marco's pizza. phenomenal. freshmen, if you haven't ventured farther than babycakes, do your stomach justice and check it out. - 3/26/08, 12:58 AM
- Anonymous said...
yeah there should be some sort of structure in place where vassar people can sit down with community people and explain the best ways to develop their community. we could even hire some consultants to design a plan to help them redesign the area. that way, we'd get what we want and they wouldn't complain so much.

raymond ave. actually looks a lot better than my hometown. it's actually pretty sad that so many vassar yuppies magically emerge when they are given the chance to be anonymous.

it would be great if the barnes and noble had one of those dvd/cd stores. those are great. wouldn't it be fab if we could charge dvd sets home on our vcards??? i can't wait!

i think it would be best to have the b&n and starbucks be separate. that way, more of the area would look transformed. although it'd be nice to have drinks available inside the store too, but this way the starbucks could be more public.
i wonder if they could work out a deal with them so that our cards would work to get coffee? - 3/26/08, 1:13 AM

11:54 says we're here for FOUR YEARS--residents are here for life.
but vassar is here forever. and if businesses can't get the support of vassar students, then they go under (like arlington pizza from last year, and whatever restaurant was in the space the year before). there are plenty of businesses that could support vassar students and poughkeepsie residents. the shopping areas in my hometown have a pleasant mix of big chain stores and locally-owned shops. i think arlington could have a good balance; say, bigger retail places but locally-owned restaurants. - 3/26/08, 1:15 AM

true. we need to make the area more commercial so that people who would otherwise be turned off by the disgusting eyesore will have incentive to come! vassar's outsides need to match its princely insides. let's just not tell the prospies about the housing crunch.
ps yay! now i can charge $4 frappes home to the rents. - 3/26/08, 1:21 AM

I think they should build a Sonic where Juliets is now. It would increase parking for Vassar students and allow townies and students to bond over their new baked mac and cheese bites and their almost magical ability to create the best crushed ice this side of Macau.
- Anonymous said...
1:21 - your comment was clearly sarcastic, but the fact is, you're correct without it. let's call a spade a spade. the area around vassar is butt ugly. the buildings on main street are falling apart. we need to realize that prospies don't just see the campus tours, they see the whole area around here as they drive up. do we really want to give a qualified student who will graduate and make millions any reason to go someplace else? do we really want anyone to be turned off of vassar for a reason as stupid as the look of the surrounding area? of course not! so we need to take matters into our own hands and fix the area up so that it looks attractive, safe, and commercial.

1:15 you are 110% on the money. the answer has to be a mix of locally owned businesses and larger corporate ones. it seems to me that the corporations should handle providing mass goods - books and groceries. locals should handle cultural stuff, like restaurants.

you guys see ONE Street.

but that one awful street is the one that most matters to the college...
- Anonymous said...
i don't get this conversation. if vassar if willing to put up the money to make this area look five hundred times better, then that's awesome. it's not like businesses here are doing so wonderfully now and we'd be spoiling their huge cash-flows. in the three years i've been here, i've seen probably 5 businesses go under just on collegeview. and most of those businesses sucked and looked ugly anyway (arlington pizza being the only exception). so if vc is willing to spend the $$ to improve the look of the area around the college with nice stores, then that sounds freakin wonderful and people should stop bitching about nothing
- Anonymous said...
it's not just one street. it's really not. nowhere within walking distance is nice. and there's no reason why it shouldn't be nice.
- Anonymous said...
for all the bitching, raymond and collegeview etc basically have everything we need. a ton of restaurants, 2 coffee places, a bookstore, a dollar store for random stuff, etc. if you need more, take a taxi or the shuttle to the mall. pretty basic.
i do think that vassar and the surrounding neighborhood have things that could be worked on and improved on. but if the surrounding town is of the utmost importance to you and you're not a fan of poughkeepsie, maybe you should have picked something else. i can walk to everything i need and most of what i want, so i'm pretty content. and it's really not as decrepid as everyone's making it out to be. maybe just a new paint job.
i know that the big bookstore is going to happen. which sucks. but bitching isnt really going to change it. maybe encourage vassar to choose an independant provider if you hate b&n so much, encourage them to work with the three arts to coexist, etc. dont complain about things you cant change, and work on what you can.
i also want to know what theyre going to do with the space where the current bookstore is. any thoughts? - 3/26/08, 9:28 AM
- Android said...
I don't get it. What is so damn necessary about the surrounding area being "commercial" in order for it to be nice?
Poughkeepsie is not a blemish on Vassar's face. Get that into your heads, maybe go somewhere beyond Raymond Avenue (some place that's not the mall) and you'd understand. - 3/26/08, 9:32 AM
- Anonymous said...
this area need a big bookstore so badly. it would really make the look of the town so much better for countless numbers of vassar visitors. it would be big, clean and bright - three things that don't really apply to any of the current businesses, except HSBC, Babycakes, and the vitamin store. everything else needs to be torn down and renovated in a much more elegant style.
- Anonymous said...
i don't get it. are these the same three people commenting over and over again? or is 2/3rds of the vassar constituency reading this blog really that dense?
- andrew bennett said...
To 12:58 and 1:02 -- There are a couple of structures in place for Vassar to work with the community: the Arlington Business Improvement District (arlingtonbid.org) is an organization to improve the area and the Vassar Community Committee works to strengthen ties with the community. Furthermore, Vassar's administrators maintain an open dialogue with landlords and business owners. In response to 1:02's recommendation of hiring some consultants, Vassar has done that! The decision to move the bookstore was based off some of the work done by the consultant.

wow, when i came to Vassar i thought i'd be coming to a place with real, intelligent people. now, a year and a half later, i realize that much of the student body (or at least much of the posters on this wall) are the same business minded, egocentric yuppies that i was trying to escape.

it's not vassar's job to help people in the local community; that's their job and their government's job. it's our job to make vassar as wonderful a place as possible, which includes making the hideous area around main street better.
- Anonymous said...
its frustrating
because Poughkeepsie is so much like my hometown
and most of these posters are probably used to sprawling, suburban mini-mansions in perfectly kept neighborhoods.
and anything that doesn't fit those standards is "hideous"
I was on the bus through poughkeepsie today, and really, the houses surrounding Vassar are quaint little townhouses. Not the fucking slums you make them out to be. - 3/26/08, 5:50 PM

If I were a prospective student, seeing a Barnes and Noble or a Starbucks would not impress me in the way that some people think to seem it would. I agree that the conditions of the sidewalks and some of the buildings are poor, but I don't think substituting them with franchises that they can find anywhere else will make people want to come especially to Vassar.
- Anonymous said...
Do you really want to live in a world where people limit their good deeds to what their "job" is? Not only does your post demonstrate that you don't understand what this college represents, it really makes you look like an uncaring schmuck. - 3/26/08, 6:24 PM

I think with hot button issues like this it's important to remember that one person (or commenter's) opinion does not represent everyone's. It's not fun to see ignorance and bigotry enter into a debate on our campus, but it does. Have faith that Vassar is a forward thinking place. We are lucky that the Urban Studies majors set up this panel, we should thank them! I hope the people with passionate feelings who've been posting will be there tomorrow. Bitching when anonymous and keeping your mouth shut in a legitimate forum is no way to act.
- Anonymous said...
does everyone here realize that b&n already runs the on campus bookstore? because it does. ok, cool.
also, instead of debating about franchises vs local shops, perhaps we should consider what would be most likely to meet customers' needs. i'm perfectly happy to patronize the three arts, but the fact is that they are much less likely to have what i need than a larger chain.
b&n isn't just convenient for rich yuppies, it's convenient for anyone who needs books (or various other products).
finally, i think that if anything, having the bookstore in the juliet's location will increase the business received by other local stores because students will have to walk off campus anyway. - 3/26/08, 9:51 PM
- Anonymous said...
see, i think that these mads posts show that there is a silent minority - probably a very sizable minority - on this campus that don't buy into all of this uber-liberal independent stores local community crap. the reason we don't come out and say so in public is that you'll label us racists or bigots or something of that nature.
but being fiscally conservative and thinking that vassar should act in its own best interests does NOT make me racist. it's simply another way of looking at a situation. i personally don't want to see two cents of my tuition money going to anything to benefit the local community. i don't give a damn about the local community. i'm sure they're nice people, but their affairs are their business. the only reason vassar should spend money on arlington is insofar as it makes the college look and feel better. that means a nice, big, safe, airy, bookstore with lots of attractive signs and benches outside. - 3/26/08, 10:38 PM

Who really remembers feeling "disgusted" by Raymond ave when they drove up it to visit the school before they came here? Anyone? Because I know I didn't. Ok, fine, so when I go to New Paltz I'm a little jealous that Vassar isn't in an area like that, but this is what it is. We are visitors here in Poughkeepsie. It provides us everything we need. Like another poster pointed out, there's already a ton of stuff right off campus! Great restaurants, coffee, and businesses that serve full time Poughkeepsie residents. I don't think Raymond needs to be "torn down" and renovated, and yes, I do think the pressing needs of the people who live in the area full time should come first.
- Anonymous said...
the "pressing needs" of permanent residents should be a first concern for those residents and their elected representatives.
however, if we are acting within the bounds of the law, and within the bounds of representing the best interests of the college, the needs of locals should enter our minds only when they serve us. - 3/26/08, 11:39 PM

I have to scrap together cash each month to help pay my Vassar tuition. I have a campus job, and I work all year round to pay to be here.
I don't want to see one damn dime of the money I pay Vassar being injected to the poor, ugly community that surrounds us. All of our money should be spent on us, the students. That means beautiful new buildings, beautiful grounds, top-notch professors. Think I'm selfish? Maybe I am. But I don't want my hard earned money to help remake some ghetto. Every cent of that money should be spent on me and my peers. - 3/27/08, 12:06 AM

text: The Marvel Movie-verse may be taking a trip to Planet HulkRob Bricken2/04/13 10:48amFiled to: HulkPlanet hulk avengers marvel125EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink The folks over at Latino Review claim they have yet another insight into the future of the Marvel movie-verse. Their sources say that after the Hulk stars in Avengers 2, he'll be back to his own movies, which will supposedly be adaptations of the fan-favorite Planet Hulk and World War Hulk storylines. But let's break this down a little. Advertisement • Latino Review seems to lean heavily on this quote by Marvel's Kevin Feige, who told MTV: "I don't think there's a lot that we couldn't do someday, as the cinematic universe continues to grow and expand and get as big as the comic book universe. "Planet Hulk' is a cool story, 'World War Hulk' is a cool story. I think there's pitfalls of continuity-overload, and mythology getting so dense that it almost collapses in on itself [with those cosmic projects]. It happens every few decades or so in the comics. Apart from that, I'd say everything is on the table."I don't think that's nearly as definitive proof that Marvel is adapting Planet Hulk as Latino Review seems to believe it is, but it certainly doesn't rule out a Planet Hulk movie. Advertisement • Latino Review claims that Avengers 2 will end with the Hulk being shot into space by the movie-verse Illuminati.A couple things here: 1) there's not really any Marvel movie-verse Illuminati. There's Tony Stark, but that's it. They can't use Mr. Fantastic, and I can't imagine that Marvel is going to try to introduce Dr. Strange, Black Bolt and the Inhumans, and/or Namor, just in order to set up Planet Hulk. In fact, I'd say it's impossible.• Another problem: There's no way Marvel can have this type of major conflict between its heroes without one of them looking like an asshole. Either Tony Stark is being over-reactionary and shooting the misunderstood Hulk into space — which would fly in the face of their relationship established in The Avengers — or the Hulk has to do something terrible enough to justify Tony shooting him into space, in which case it'll be tougher for audiences to want to see him star in his own movie. Sponsored • Also, I feel like any Planet Hulk movie would have to begin with Hulk being shot into space. That's the start of the story, and I don't think Marvel would even try to shove it into the tail end of another movie.• However, there is an easy solution — start Planet Hulk with the Hulk being shot into space, and have it done by General Ross. Although that precludes World War Hulk... unless it's just Hulk smashing the military instead of various superheroes, which I'd be fine with. Advertisement Obviously, a lot will depend on how Guardians of the Galaxy does, and Feige clearly loves Marvel's space stories, but I don't know if mass audiences are ready for a Hulk-in-space movie.[Via /Film]Reply125 repliesLeave a reply

Tanks and Tanks Once More
No thanks. I only tank in emergencies.
However, I'm thinking about the tanking writer of this blog. The one who loves his DK Tank and has some old fashioned love for his long suffering Warrior Tank. The same one who isn't sure what to do with creating a toon to run through low level instances with.
Yeah, I know, he could do a Pally tank, but he has one of those, and he's not thrilled with him.
He already has a Warrior.
So why not be a Big Bear Butt tank?
Okay, I know one reason he'd have issues: the Night Elf in general. Aside from that, however, Druid Tanks hold their aggro quite well, thank you very much, and I have to admit I've got a lot of respect for the Druid Tanks I've pugged with. No, I'm not suggesting he hang out as a Tree --that's not his style-- but a Bear? Yeah, I can see that.
4 comments:
As a matter of fact, I hate playing druids.
With as many tanks as I have now (Leve 80 pally, warrior, and DK) I don't know if I want the complete package.
I just don't care for the fact the only mitigation they have is armor, hp, and dodge.
And druids have a healing talent tree. I avoid things with that. I'm not healing again... ever.But … why not have more than one warrior? Personally I find them rather enjoyable to play, and if you are already happy with them as a class and want to experience levelling again – nothing wrong with it. Roll a new one, jump into your first few instances with the mighty skill of sunder armour in defensive stance and … well… I suppose thunderclap has the ring of a defensive ability to it. Chop your way up to 80 again – if you reach it before Cataclysm you can always go back to ignoring warrior number 2. Or play the gearing game again and try to remember how it was the first time round.

- While the law [of competition] may be sometimes hard for the individual, it is best for the race, because it insures the survival of the fittest in every department.

- Those who would administer wisely must, indeed, be wise, for one of the serious obstacles to the improvement of our race is indiscriminate charity.

- Thus is the problem of Rich and Poor to be solved. The laws of accumulation will be left free; the laws of distribution free. Individualism will continue, but the millionaire will be but a trustee of the poor; intrusted for a season with a great part of the increased wealth of the community, but administering it for the community far better than it could or would have done for itself.

text: Next week, I have to attend a friend's wedding. I was thinking about just wearing this evening gown to the wedding. The wedding starts at 4pm for the ceremony and reception will shortly follow at about 6 - 7pm. I told my bf about it, but he said it looks slutty on me for this gown is designed for evening party not a wedding. I never really thought about these before, so I need advice. What do you guys think? Is it rude/inconsiderate to wear this gown to a wedding? Does this look slutty on me?

New Docs Shed Light On White House Role In CIA Tape Destruction
Newscom / Smith
Alex Abdo, an ACLU legal fellow, writes about the new documents here.
Among those documents, Abdo writes, are two November 2005 cables from a CIA field office to CIA headquarters requesting permission to destroy the tapes, and a third cable, sent soon after, confirming their destruction. The cables were sent directly after the Washington Post revealed the existence of CIA black sites, and the New York Times reported that the CIA Inspector General had questioned the legality of the agency's torture program. In other words, the CIA may have destroyed the tapes in order to keep the full extent of the torture program from the public.

Reviews of this property
The location of the apartment and the decor of the place are splendid. Sitting right in the heart of Venice right above the waterline. You can watch boats passing by from every room.
The owner of the apartment though was somewhat hard to get in contact to (as a matter of fact not at all) but a friend helped out a lot, e.g. when the wifi connection failed. I just would not recommend this place for a vacation with a toddler as it included stairs from the living room to the kitchen and the bathroom, the stone floor makes this dangerous for a small child.
The apartment was central and easily. Unfortunately, no TV, bathroom clean but could be made once again of the plaster on the walls. Kitchen super, overall we were very satisfied!
Die Wohnung war zentral und gut. Leider kein TV, Bad sauber aber könnte mal wieder der Putz an den Wänden gemacht werden. Küche super, insgesamt waren wir sehr zufrieden!
The apartment is very well located, very nice beside a canal. Everything is possible on foot you do not have to take a pass for the vaporetto.
5 minutes from Piazzale Roma
Moreover it is very quiet at night and there is no noise, it is fresh.
As against the visit was very quick no explanation of anything ...
€ AND 40 TO BE GIVEN FOR THE HOUSEHOLD ?? !! What is far from clear in the ad ...
And the wifi is only captures at table level room, not having elsewhere in the apartment ...
L'appartement est très bien situé, très agréable au bord d'un canal. Tout est possible à pied vous n'êtes pas obligé de prendre un pass pour le vaporetto.
À 5 minutes de la Place Roma
De plus il est très calme et la nuit il n'y a aucun bruit, il est frais.
Par contre la visite a été très rapide aucunes explications sur rien...
ET 40€ À DONNER POUR LE MÉNAGE ??!! Ce qui n'est absolument pas précisé dans l'annonce...
Et la wifi se capte uniquement au niveau de la table à manger, impossible de l'avoir ailleurs dans l'appartement...
We would not recommend apartamentet the grunt of lack of cleaning that was very dirty, dusty, self-catering not need emptied before we took over lokum.Adressen was better not KOREKT so we lost over an hour to find apartamentet, the host was not tilgenglig on phone, she went to London and did not therefore telefonen.Men the Barnes fine with the prospect of a small canal
Vi vil ikke anbefale apartamentet på grunt af mangel på rengøring,der var meget snavset,støvet,selv køkkenaffald ver ikke tømt inden vi overtog lokum.Adressen var hellere ikke korekt så vi mistede over en time for at finde apartamentet,værten var ikke tilgenglig på telefonen hun rejste til London og tog ikke derfor telefonen.Men beligenhed er fint nok med udsigten til en lille kanal
nice apartment, location is wrong on the site / card. it is on the ground. Trousers
Fully furnished, only the bed was a bit clumsy when instappen.Binnendeuren not close properly.
The € 40 for the cleaning was not mentioned and was given the results of the cleaning before us to be high.
Positive feeling prevails.
mooi appartement, lokatie staat verkeerd op de site/kaart. het ligt op de fond. Pantalon
Volledig ingericht, alleen het bed is wat onhandig bij het instappen.Binnendeuren sluiten niet goed.
De € 40 voor de schoonmaak was niet vermeld en was gezien de resultaten van de schoonmaak vóór ons wel aan te hoge kant.
Positief gevoel overheerst.

The little red house is a great place to stay in Venice! Thanks for all,we will return.
It was a super great place to stay and overall a very stimulating bow.
Thanks Nelly
Es war eine super tolle Unterkunft und insgesamt eine sehr anregende Reide.
Vielen Dank Nelly
The HOST WE HAVE NOT SEEN THE LOCATION BUT VERY WELL CENTERED ON HIC ONLY DO IS COOKING IN VENICE ON BUT IS NOT FOR THE CA ON BEAUTIFUL SIDE
The Little Red House is truly a great place to stay in Venice. The location cannot be better, as it is close to Rialto, San Polo and Santa Croce district with great spots to eat and drink or just to stroll. On our own campo San Cassiano we had our morning cappucchino in the sun at Bar S.Cassian. The house itself is ideal for 2 couples, as it has to seperate doorways, and 2 bedrooms. The kitchen is small but ok. If you miss something, Claudia will arrange it for you within the hour. 100% we will return!
The apartment is very nice. Comfortable loft with adequate facilities and very nice hosts and staff.
Everything worked out fine, highly recommended!
Die Wohnung ist sehr schön gelegen. Gemütliche Dachwohnung mit ausreichender Ausstattung und sehr netten Gastgeberinnen und Mitarbeiterinnen.
Es hat alles prima geklappt, sehr zu empfehlen!

Football recruiting: UCLA lands commitment No. 7
August 5th, 2010, 1:28 pm by Adam Maya, staff writerRivals.com reports tight end Raymond Nelson verbally committed to UCLA on Wednesday. Nelson (6-5, 238, Modesto) is the younger brother of UCLA power forward Reeves Nelson. (I'll spare you the full nelson line.)
Nelson has been recruited by most the Pac-10, but he didn't receive an offer from UCLA until June following a camp. Scout.com ranks Nelson the No. 30 tight end in the nation. (He has not been rated by Rivals.)
The Bruins have had their issues with tight ends of late. Junior Pomee (6-3, 210, Rancho Verde) de-committed in July and Austin Seferian-Jenkins (6-6, 260, Gig Harbor, WA) said he's deciding between Texas and Washington after previously being a soft-commit to UCLA.
Further, incoming freshman John Young will miss the season because of a shoulder injury.
Nelson is the sixth offensive player to commit to UCLA. Last week linebacker Aaron Wallace became the first defensive player.

This Phone is Horrible
OK this phone first off is extremely tacky it is this horrible golden orange color. The phone looks like a cave wall with inscribes and carvings on it. The camera is horrible reminds me of the v710 from motorola but even worse(can u believe that!?!?!) The phone is a cingular phone I tried it out in a cingular phone store in China Town New York. Horrible Phone don't even waste your time buying it.
Pro: The screen is pretty decent but nuttin spectacular.
Video is better than camera which is kinda weird.(probably because of video ringtones which is pretty cool)
Cons: Everything is bad about the phone.
Crappy stereo speakers
Camera worse than motorola v710
Cool rotating thing to open phone but design and color is horrible.

At the March on Washington Aug. 28, 1963, Martin Luther King Jr. began his speech by declaring, "Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of captivity….In a sense we have come to our nation's capital to cash a check."
In 2013 the U.S. commemorates two events that changed the course of the nation—the 1863 Emancipation Proclamation and the 1963 March on Washington. Standing as milestone moments in American history, these achievements were the culmination of decades of struggles by individuals—both famous and unknown—who believed in the American promise that this nation was dedicated to the proposition that "all men are created equal." Separated by 100 years, they are linked together in a larger story of freedom and the American experience.
To commemorate these two pivotal achievements, the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture, in collaboration with the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History, is presenting an exhibition that explores the historical context of these two events, their accomplishments and limitations and their impact on the generations that followed.
"Changing America: The Emancipation Proclamation, 1863 and The March on Washington, 1963" will be on view in the NMAAHC Gallery from Dec. 14 through Sept. 15, 2013. The gallery is located in the National Museum of American History. Featuring historic photographs, paintings and new film footage, the exhibition will be accompanied by a new website and a series of public programs designed to examine the social and political currents that shaped these events.
"It is an exhibit that tells a profound story about people changing, pushing and expanding the meaning of democracy in America that remains relevant today," said associate curator Nancy Bercaw. Among the artifacts on display will be:
- The inkstand used by President Abraham Lincoln in 1862 to draft a document "giving freedom to the slaves of the South," which later became the Emancipation Proclamation
- A rare copy of the 13th Amendment to abolish slavery, bearing Lincoln's signature and once owned by Speaker of the House Schuyler Colfax (1863–1869), a lifelong abolitionist who helped push the resolution through Congress (on loan from David Rubenstein)
- Lincoln's top hat worn to Ford's Theatre on the night he was assassinated, April 14, 1865
- Items depicting slavery and resistance, including a whip, a runaway slave poster with reward information, a bible belonging to Nat Turner, who led an 1831 slave rebellion in Virginia, and a shawl given to abolitionist Harriet Tubman by Queen Victoria
- Ten shards of stained glass from the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Ala., where four young black girls were killed in an explosion
- The guitar played by singer Joan Baez at the 1963 March on Washington
- Pen used by President Lyndon Johnson to sign the Civil Rights Act of 1964
- Various objects from the March on Washington, including organizing documents, protest signs, platform passes for speakers and guests, buttons, a marshal's armband and a map of the National Mall area
"When you look at the objects from these two great freedom struggles and think about the stories they reveal, you cannot help but be inspired," said Harry Rubenstein, co-curator of the exhibition.
"America's promise of freedom is filled with contradiction," said Lonnie G. Bunch III, founding director of NMAAHC and co-curator of the exhibition. "Perhaps no people understood this more than the 4 million enslaved Africans living in the United States before 1863. Through their actions, large and small, enslaved people and abolitionists worked toward freedom for more than 200 years. Move forward to 1963 and the March on Washington, and you see a coalition of people and organizations continuing the pursuit of liberty and equality for all. This is a shining moment in America's story."

Uncle Vanya
Helyszín Wyndham's Theatre
Vanya, Yelena, Astrov and Sonya are all in love: with the past, with ideals and with each other. As their universe shifts around them, they struggle to keep their emotions at bay in an exquisitely evoked comedy of trials and tribulations of the human condition. Internationally renowned film / theatre director, producer and screenwriter Andrei Konchalovsky brings his productions of Anton Chekov's Uncle Vanya and Three Sisters from Moscow's Moccobeta State Academic Theatre to London's Wyndham's Theatre. Konchalovsky has utilized the same setting and cast for both productions, drawing on the striking similarities between Chekov's two most celebrated plays. They will be performed in their original Russian with English surtitles.

As I have more time to sit and think I find myself reviewing various ways my life has changed. The choices and decisions which we all face in life determine how your life flows. Have you ever said to yourself or someone else "If only I had …" or "If I could do it all over again, I'd ..." Well, the choices and decisions are ours to make and we must deal with the circumstances, as my sister will say. There is no need to blame others for the results of a choice we made. Saying "You make me so angry" is not right, you are choosing to be angry. Many people blame their past for their present situation. The past is over, and we choose to live in it or make our life better and move forward. No one has control over you except you, unless you choose to let them.
Most of the time when we are faced with a choice it seems all right to take the less difficult way, but it doesn't always work out to be the best choice in the long run. It may have been a decision that got quick results but by acting in haste, it may cause us to actually spend more time to get the results we want.
I often wonder what would have happened if I had made different choices and taken more time to make the choices that were involved in my decisions. We move through life at what appears to be a steady pace and often don't realize that we are not getting any closer to our goals. I find now that the quest I still am aiming for wasn't getting any closer because I didn't realize the full potential of it until now. The thing was that no matter how busy I was, how fast the pace or whom I was with, the fact is I really wasn't getting ahead in what I was aiming for. I could have accomplished more and enjoyed it more at a slower pace. The fast track tends to shackle us to that pace and standards which prevent us form leading a truly successful, happy life doing our work in our own authentic way.
Happy birthday wishes to Bev Lovelady and Connie Combs.
Get well, speedy recovery to all those ailing.
May your tomorrow be better than today.

AL Capsules
Will be updated.
By The Associated Press
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Blue Jays pitcher J.A. Happ was hit in the head by a line drive and taken off the field on a stretcher during Toronto's 6-4 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday night.
In a frightening scene at Tropicana Field, Desmond Jennings' second-inning liner caromed squarely off the left side of Happ's head with a loud "thwack!" that could be heard up in the press box.
The ball went all the way into the bullpen in foul territory halfway down the right-field line. Happ dropped face down at the front of the mound, holding his head with his glove and bare hand.
The pitcher was taken to a hospital for tests but the Blue Jays had no update on his condition immediately after the game, manager John Gibbons said.
BOSTON -- Scott Diamond allowed three hits in seven innings and Ryan Doumit hit his first homer of the season in Minnesota's victory over Boston.
Diamond (3-2) gave up a single in each of the first three innings, didn't allow a runner past first base and retired the last 15 batters he faced. He struck out two and walked none.
David Ortiz went 1 for 4 to extend his hitting streak to 27 games, a run that began before he sustained a season-ending injury in August. He has at least one hit in all 15 games he's played this season.
Ryan Dempster (2-3) pitched well for Boston and left trailing 2-0 in the top of the eighth after third baseman Pedro Ciriaco made errors on the first two batters, putting runners at first and third. That led to four runs, three of them unearned, as the Twins took a 6-0 lead.
HOUSTON -- Chris Carter's three-run homer put Houston ahead in the third, and Astros held on to end a six-game skid.
The road woes continued for the Angels, who have dropped eight of their past 10 away from Anaheim.
Jose Altuve also homered for Houston, and the Astros took advantage of three errors by catcher Hank Conger to score five unearned runs.
Houston's Jordan Lyles (1-0) allowed four hits and three runs with six strikeouts in five innings in his second start of the season.
C.J. Wilson (3-1) allowed seven runs -- two earned -- and seven hits and tied a career high with 12 strikeouts.
Mark Trumbo hit his ninth home run for Los Angeles, a three-run shot in the first inning.
CLEVELAND -- Zach McAllister and two relievers combined on a shutout and Cleveland scored an unearned run in the fifth inning for their eighth win in nine games.
McAllister, Rich Hill and Chris Perez limited the highest-scoring offense in the majors to six hits and did not allow a runner to reach second base.
McAllister (3-3) struck out four and walked one in 7 2-3 innings. Perez pitched the ninth for his fourth save.
Tommy Milone (3-4), who lost a career-worst fourth straight start, was done in by shoddy defense and no run support.
BALTIMORE -- Matt Wieters drove in three runs, including the tiebreaker in the eighth inning, and Baltimore rallied to beat Kansas City on a soggy night at Camden Yards.
After blowing a three-run lead, the Orioles went back on top in the eighth. Adam Jones drew a leadoff walk from Tim Collins (1-1) and advanced when Luke Hochevar threw wildly to first base on a pickoff attempt. Wieters then lofted an opposite-field fly to left that landed just inside the foul line for a double.
Tommy Hunter (2-1) worked 1 1-3 innings of relief and Jim Johnson got three straight outs for his 12th save.
It was the fourth win in five games for the Orioles, who moved within a game of first-place Boston in the AL East.

Yoko Ono released Take Me To The Land Of Hell last week, and to promote the album, she's performing on the Late Night show with David Letterman, but not without friends! The Flaming Lips are joining her for this performance - slated for October 2. This shouldn't come as too much of a surprise, considering their collaborations on a split EP, Christmas album, New Year's shows, and on the collab album The Flaming Lips and Heady Fwends.
Elsewhere in Lipsville, Wayne Coyne has been working on 7,000 different projects: a Stone Roses cover album (a la their Dark Side of the Moon and In The Court Of The Crimson King cover albums), an EP of songs inspired by the upcoming Ender's Game movie, and a split covers EP with Tame Impala. The EP will feature the fearless freaks doing Tame Impala covers and vice versa - "Runway, Houses, City, Clouds" and "Elephant" (!!!) is confirmed to be on the EP on the Lips' side, and speculation has Tame Impala covering "Are You A Hypnotist??" and "Silver Trembling Hands" - songs they've been playing live lately. The EP will only be four songs, sadly. (If only a full album!)
UPDATE: Here's the back of the Ender's Game-themed EP, titled Peace Sword. You can read more about the EP here.
All of these will no doubt have limited releases and only be available in hometown record shops in Oklahoma City or on tour.
You can read more information on all of these releases at the ever-excellent fansite The Future Heart, which has a complete fall preview for all the upcoming Lips projects here.
Coyne was also kicked off Instagram, but already has a new account. There's a petition (which you should sign if you remotely enjoy Coyne, him shouting out to a bunch of new bands and artists, and generally being an awesome person). Moby put it this way.
"There is no place for artistic censorship in a free society. Especially when the artist in question is Wayne Coyne. Bring back Wayne's amazing images."

Today was the MAB Challenge. Deadlifts - total reps for 10 minutes at 50% of one rep max. When I calculated my heaviest Deadlift out to a 1 rep max I came out to between 315 and 330 something, depending on which method I used. So, I decided to use 175lbs. Here is how it went
Dead lifts
5 x 135 - slow with a stretch to loosen up. WU
10 x 175
7 x 5 x 175
total of 45 reps. I was surprised by how often I HAD to rest.
Kroc Rows
3 x 10 x 50
- I was a little tired by this time
Good Mornings
3 x 10 x 95
Hanging Knee Raises
3 x 10 x BW
Friday I return to 5/3/1. I may not have stayed with the program today but I did get a workout. I am worn out in a good sort of way.
I have been working on my new diet plan. Still have some tweaks to make, but will post when finished.

As a patriotic citizen, I petition the United States Senate to say "NO" to President Obama's Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan.
President Obama has stated that students should have military service opportunities on campus. However, his nominee for the U.S. Supreme Court, current Solicitor General of the United States and Harvard Law School Dean, Elena Kagan, believes the military should be banned from campus.
Kagan banned military recruiters from the career office while she served as dean of the law school. Harvard students who wanted to meet with military recruiters about serving their country were treated as second-class citizens.
Only because of pressure from then-President Larry Summers, and the threat of losing millions in federal funds should she implement an outright ban, did Kagan opt for an apartheid system rather than an outright ban. She allowed students to meet with military representatives only in a segregated part of the campus, essentially telling these courageous young people to "get to the back of the bus."
Kagan was not content to keep her radical, anti-student ideology confined to Harvard. She led the unsuccessful fight of radical leftist academics and administrators to deny students nationwide the right to meet with military recruiters on campuses.
Kagan fought all the way to the United States Supreme Court to invalidate a federal law known as the Solomon Amendment, denying qualified students the opportunity to serve our country and infringing upon their constitutional rights. In a unanimous decision, all members of the Supreme Court rejected Kagan's radical ideology, saying that students have every right to meet with the military on campus and that the federal government have every right to deny US taxpayer funds to schools that did not comply.
The battle to limit the rights of certain students on campus—particularly those willing to sacrifice their lives in the service of their country—will begin anew should Kagan win a powerful life-long seat on the Supreme Court.

Kim what a beautiful layout - I love your journaling, the way you placed your frame AND I love your precious photos of Adrianna AND Pop Pop --- love it!
Great photos!! The subtlety of this page is what really makes it I think... you did a lovely job keeping it neutral like that and I love the circle frame :-)
I really like this page! There are so many parts I like to this page: torn photo mask for journaling, slanted design, border of rings, circle around one of three cute photos in a line... Lovely! This goes into my favorites!
This is so nice. I do like your choice of colours for this page.
Love the colors, and the oracle frame really pulls your eye in. Just lovely.
I love this. Great colors & I like the way the middle is sort of blended into the pretty background. Perfect colors with your sweet photos. Oh, I just love the whole thing - into my favorites.
You captured some precious moments and memories! I love the way you've arranged everything on this page. The colors are lovely and spring-like, and your journaling actually brought a tear to my eye. (Well... I'm a softie when it comes to grandkids and their Pop Pops.) Just beautiful, Kim!
Lovely photos. What a great memory this is. Beautifully scrapped.
Such a sweet page and photos. Thanks for the great (& fun!) chat!

Sometimes being a fashion fox is hard...
Over the Easter holiday, Inspector Climate, The Climate's and I are going camping...somewhere - and that's not being elusive so you won't know how to track us down, it's just I honestly have no idea where we are going. Somewhere.
They kept saying "it's cold where we go camping." And while I don't really believe that it gets cold in Australia, I decided I'd ask my mom to send me these orange fleece pants that I bought my senior year at Mount Holyoke to brighten up The Darkness and to keep warm in my apartment, because I refused to turn on the heat - I am an environmentalist, after all. Yesterday, I received that package. And even though it's approximately a billion degrees in Australia today, I decided I had to try on the fleece orange pants. But why stop at fleece orange pants when you can also wear a clashing fleece orange jacket? And why stop at fleece orange pants and a clashing fleece orange jacket when you can also wear a fleece hat with ears? I couldn't stop.
Although, I was a bit shy at first.
Does orange make my butt look big?

Orange is the best color ever : ) I love your totally orange outfit!
I saw your comment at 24 at Heart tonight about composing pictures of buildings. Not that I know a ton about taking architectural pictures, but I just thought I would share something I do when I like a building : ) I take one picture and then I start moving all around it. I go to the left. to the right. Lay down. Climb the steps. The more shots you take, the more chance you have to get a picture you LOVE! : ) Also, take pictures of the details. One window. One door. Half the door. You know, stuff like that. Good luck with your picture taking adventures. So nice to meet you via the blogging world tonight!Orange D? Google 'Big Orange', get into one of the campus stores or vendors for UT (either will do), and you'll find acres of Orange stuff. Like more than you can imagine on earth. But of course with logos all over them too. Though you'd want to know as an Orange Fan. Proud owner of a 'Big Orange Screw', it's around here someplace... Cheers & Good Luck! 'VJ'

text: The Boardgame Remix Kit Combines Your Old Games Into New OnesJason Fitzpatrick12/11/10 3:00pmFiled to: GamesFunGift IdeasBoardgames56EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink If you're looking for a way to mix things up this Holiday season, The Boardgame Remix kit takes classic games—like Monopoly and Clue—and remixes them into fun new games. Advertisement Nearly every house has some basic game staples: Monopoly, Scrabble, Clue, and Trivial Pursuit. The problem is most of those games are quite stale for most people; nobody is going to leap up from their seats if you suggest a post Christmas dinner game of Monopoly. The Boardgame Remix Kit creates totally new games by mixing together pieces, boards, and other material from common games.The kit is available as an ebook or iOS application, both for $4.75. If you'd like to read the introduction, see the list of games, and read over a sample game set up, you can check out their sample PDF here. Know of any places online to find similarly remixed games for free? Let's hear about it in the comments. Advertisement The Boardgame Remix KitReply56 repliesLeave a reply
