Alligator President Bruce Iglauer To Discuss "Bitten By The Blues" On CHICAGO TONIGHT
Alligator Records president and founder Bruce Iglauer will appear on WTTW-TV's
Chicago Tonight
on Wednesday, January 16, 2019 to discuss his new book,
Bitten by the Blues
The Alligator Records Story.
The program airs locally at 7:00pm Central time.
o-authored by Patrick A. Roberts, the book was released on Tuesday, October 30, 2018 by The University of Chicago Press. The book is a memoir of a life immersed in the blues -- and the business of running an independent blues label.
Bitten By The Blues
takes readers behind the scenes, offering larger than life stories of musicians, recording sessions, and what it's like to work with the legends of the genre.
From first hearing Hound Dog Taylor at Florence's Lounge on Chicago's South Side to building Alligator Records one release at a time to running the biggest blues label in the world, Iglauer and Roberts take readers on a 50-year journey through the blues from local Chicago bars to festival stages across the globe.
According to Iglauer, "We wanted to paint vivid pictures of the charismatic blues immortals that I knew so well, like Hound Dog Taylor, Son Seals, Koko Taylor and Albert Collins, as well as to give insight into the creative process of planning and recording some of their classic albums. And we wanted to give the readers a close-up look at the exciting and visionary artists who are carrying the Alligator tradition into the future, like Marcia Ball, Shemekia Copeland, Selwyn Birchwood and Toronzo Cannon. It's also an insider's look at how the independent record business has changed over the last 50 years, and how those changes have impacted the artists who create the music."
The Chicago Tribune
says, "Apart from the musicians themselves, few Chicagoans have done more for the genre – or witnessed more of its history from the inside – than Iglauer."
Bruce Iglauer
is president and founder of Alligator Records, the largest contemporary blues label in the world. He is also a cofounder of
Living Blues
magazine and a founder of the Chicago Blues Festival.
Patrick A. Roberts
is associate professor in the College of Education at Northern Illinois University. He is the coauthor of
Give 'Em Soul, Richard! Race, Radio, and Rhythm and Blues in Chicago.

"One cannot not communicate" – applies everywhere. Paul Watzlawick's well-known quotation also applies to transcreational activities. In contrast to simple translation, transcreation must be able to transmit information content taking into account changed cultural, social and normative circumstances as well as contexts. It is therefore not only translated, but also newly created. How do I convey the "Saudade" concept to a non-Portuguese? Can non-Germans make sense of "weltschmerz"? Why is harmony a particularly popular term in Dharma-influenced countries? How do symbolisms like swastika or wheels differ in different cultural areas? Many factors play a role in the transfer of information and make transcreation a challenging but exciting topic.

LRP reports – "The entry lists for one of the biggest and most competitive touring car races in the world are open. From 25th to 27th March 2011 the LRP Touring Car Masters will again see the who-is-who of the international TC drivers. From March 25th to 27th a small city near Heidelberg in Germany will be the centre of the R/C scene. The 14th edition of the prestigious LRP Touring Car Masters will take place there. Today it is one of the absolute top events for fans and drivers from all over the world. The 2011 edition will again be one of the biggest and most competitive touring car races worldwide. Top drivers guarantee lots of tension and racing action in the Rhein-Neckar-Halle in Eppelheim (near Heidelberg). Like in the past years, the MSC Eppelheim club will be LRP's cooperation partner. The presence of the best drivers in the world has always been a trade mark of the LRP TCM.
And also for the 2011 edition World Champions, European Champions, National Champions and former TCM winners will come together to fight for the victory. No other race – except the WC – is attended by this many of the worlds top drivers! Reigning champion Ronald Völker aims to win the Masters for the second time in a row. But the acting double European Champion faces a lot of high-class competitors: Marc Rheinard from Germany, Alex Hagberg and Viktor Wilck from Sweden as well as Andy Moore from Great Britain. Young drivers such as Christer Andersson/FIN and Elliott Harper/GB will do everything to challenge the established stars."

Black Panther
"As a rare leading man who isn't defined by toxic masculinity, T'Challa is surrounded by strong women whose feminine power fortifies, rather than antagonizes, his own masculinity."
Title: Black Panther
Director: Ryan Coogler 👨🏾🇺🇸
Writers: Screenplay by Ryan Coogler 👨🏾🇺🇸 and Joe Robert Cole 👨🏾🇺🇸, based on characters by Stan Lee 👨🏼🇺🇸 and Jack Kirby 👨🏼🇺🇸
Reviewed by Monique 👩🏾🇺🇸
Technical: 5/5
I nearly cried at multiple times during this film. That should say all you need to know, but to clarify, Black Panther is an experience unlike any other you'll have at the theater this year. It's certainly an experience you wouldn't expect from a Marvel movie.
Black Panther's success comes from three things. First, it's the film's attention to detail, representing so many different types of African cultures beautifully and respectfully. Second, it's the film's refusal to use the same stale Marvel method of moviemaking. Gone are the character beats you've come to expect from a standard comic book film. Even the soundtrack is devoid of the Marvel trope of illustrating bombast without purpose. There is a much more thoughtful approach to character, conflict, and motivations, ranking this film up with Oscar-worthy works that question racial and cultural identity like In the Heat of the Night (1967), A Raisin in the Sun (1961), or the more recent Lion (2016). Third, the film's emotional resonance is both uniquely specific to audience members of the African diaspora yet universal in its appeal towards empathy for all people.
The film's main conflict comes from Killmonger (Michael B. Jordan), whose longing for a homeland manifests into violence. The character's conflict with T'Challa (Chadwick Boseman) represents a conversation that has never been showcased in the mainstream consciousness until now: how can Africa and its diaspora (African-Americans in particular) heal each other and come together, ending the psychological pain inflicted on parties? How can we learn to see each other as members of the same family, torn apart by hatred? These questions stick with you long after the film is over, and it's exciting to see how this film is driving real-world discussions about closing the wedge between African peoples around the globe.
Speaking as an African-American who has never seen herself on screen in this magnitude, Black Panther's effect is truly hard to describe without me either wanting to scream out in joy or to ugly cry. Director Ryan Coogler and the cast had a true vision of showcasing an Africa that had the potential to unify, heal, and inspire. Incredibly, the film ticks all of these boxes and then some.
Yes, the buzzword around Black Panther for several critics will be "representation." But Black Panther's messages go beyond just entertainment. For decades, there have been several schools of thought within the black community about methods for allocating and redistributing wealth to create an independent black economy; how to organize a powerful black political machine; and how to reconnect with the traditions that slavery stripped away from us. Black Panther weaves together socio-political, global, philosophical, and even economic discussions of black independence and agency in a way that ensures that we'll be talking about this film, and its impact, for years to come.
Gender: 5/5
Does it pass the Bechdel Test: YES
Black Panther is the first Marvel film that goes beyond merely passing the Bechdel test; it also passes the racial Bechdel test (a film that features two women of color conversing about something other than a white person) and the DuVernay test (a film that features non-white female characters with fully-realized lives and aren't in service to white narratives).
Every female character in Black Panther has her own path, and their directions in life aren't defined by men. Rather, the men respect female independence and see it as a boon for the country, not something to be afraid of. T'Challa, for instance, is surrounded by strong women, from the Dora Milaje warriors to his mother Ramonda (Angela Bassett) and sister Shuri (Letitia Wright). Instead of viewing their feminine power in an antagonistic light, his masculinity is fortified by it. Indeed, T'Challa presents as a rare leading man who isn't defined by toxic masculinity.
I must also point out Coogler's own lack of toxic masculinity as well. Not only did he showcase the women of Black Panther as well-rounded, multifaceted human beings who are defined without stereotype, but like T'Challa, he also regularly uses the consult of women on his films. Set designer Hannah Beachler and Oscar-nominated cinematographer Rachel Morrison have been a part of Coogler's Fruitvale Station (2013) team. He's worked with Beachler even more, utilizing her expertise on Creed (2015) as well before the two embarked on Black Panther. Costume designer Ruth E. Carter, who has worked on Malcolm X (1992), Do the Right Thing (1989), Amistad (1997) and Selma (2014), was nervous during her interview with Coogler, despite her long career. But, she said to The Ringer, after Coogler talked about how much her work in Malcolm X meant to him, she realized "[t]his guy really wants me to be here in this room; I belong here."
Beachler and Morrison also state how Coogler's belief and complete faith in their talents bolstered them. Coogler fought for his team; when Marvel considered meeting Beachler after Coogler's recommendation, Coogler said, "You can't meet me and not hire her." According to Beachler, Marvel President Kevin Feige told her to her face they weren't planning on hiring her, but her talent blew them away. Similarly, Morrison said, "I have no doubt that Ryan had to go to bat for me with Marvel."
Race: 5/5
There's no other rating I can give Black Panther other than a 5/5 for its handling of race. Even better, the film goes beyond race and shows us a complex push and pull between competing ethnic and cultural identities. Wakanda, for instance, is a country made up of several different tribes representing different aspects of African cultures. One of them even presents a visible culture clash as the Jabari refuse to take part in Wakanda's Vibranium-based technological advancements due to an adherence to their old, traditional ways. In that conflict alone, we see different sides to the black identity, but even on the micro level we see individuals harbor different perspectives. Nakia (Lupita Nyong'o) tells T'Challa that she can't settle down with him as his queen while everyone else in the world is in danger. If she can help others as a spy, she'd rather do that than adhere to T'Challa's isolationism.
Killmonger and T'Challa also provide incredible contrast. While Killmonger has experienced generational trauma of growing up in a racist American society, T'Challa has grown up on the continent and is connected to himself in a way Killmonger will never be. This highlights the experiences many of the diaspora have as opposed to those who have been born in Africa. Yes, Nakia does bring up the need for unity before we ever see Killmonger, and yes, the fatal flaw in Killmonger's plan is that he has learned imperialism from his oppressors (as The Atlantic's Adam Serwer brilliantly exposes). But his raw anger is what is so identifiable to many African-Americans, including me, who have a deep-seated rage at how unjust society is on a day-to-day, minute-by-minute basis.
The thing, though, is that you'd never know it by looking at me; like many other African-Americans, I've grown so used to disappointment that it's become dull background noise. My desensitization to it is how I, and many like me, deal with the regular issues life brings on top of the unnecessary racial animus. But to be blunt, my people have dealt with this for so long, we've developed our own way of looking at life in America. In decades past, we've danced about it, making fun of the white man and woman in front of their faces while they thought we were simply being "dumb negroes." We've sung about it on slave ships and in the fields, planning our escape or, again, cracking jokes about our white captors, while once again, they thought we were being simple animals. Today, a lot of us (including myself) have an acerbic sense of humor about racial things; instead of crying about it, we make jokes about it. This probably gets misconstrued by white people and other non-white people as our "inner, noble strength," as if we don't feel pain. But we resort to comedy because of all the pain we feel; otherwise, we'd be weeping on a daily basis. But another reason we couch our pain is because we've learned all too often, through lynchings and burnings and whippings and assassinations, that our anger can unfortunately get us killed.
Killmonger has absorbed all of this, but instead, he's chosen anger above all else, and he does what many of us would like to do, which is to simply not care if people know he's angry about his life. He, like other revolutionaries who go out in blazes of glory, is ready to die for his cause. Interestingly enough, for a while, he actually succeeds in his plans, which is more than other Marvel villains can say.
Killmonger's anger is also a commentary on how the abuse from the master to the slave has transferred through the ages and manifested in a host of self-destructive tendencies, such as spousal abuse, child abuse, self-hate, etc. Killmonger doesn't care who he kills or abuses, whether it's his girlfriend, a Dora Milaje warrior, or an elderly priestess. All they are to him are roadblocks in his anger. This, along with his bent on world domination, are the reasons he is a villain. But the fact that his anger is rooted in not knowing who he is—a specific black existential problem—is why he's such a relatable villain. It's why there are debates about whether he can even be classified as a bonafide villain since he's so complex. Perhaps we're just not used to the fact that for the first time, Marvel has created a human character, not a "human" cartoon.
The specificity of Killmonger's anger and the feelings that propel him towards his goals remind me that a film like this might not exist in such a powerful way if it wasn't in the hands of a black director.
Would a white director, or a director of another race, write black characters in the staid, Hollywood way we're used to? Would Black Panther be less of a cautious, caring leader and more of an African prince stereotype? Would the Dora Milaje be reduced to sexuality, or would their femininity be erased entirely, thus perpetuating the stereotype of unattractive, "manly" black women? Would we have gotten the transcendent message of pan-African unity and spiritual healing? Who knows. All that comes to my mind is someone like Quentin Tarantino taking this project and keeping the characters to their proto-blaxploitation roots. While we might like the result, we wouldn't be moved by it. I certainly wouldn't be trying to tap into my African culinary roots because of it, or digging deeper into my Ancestry DNA results the way I am now. I would have felt as I did after watching Tarantino's Django Unchained (2012)—I'd think, "The film's got some interesting things to say," and move on.
This leads me to wonder exactly how much we as a society (especially black society) have been short-changed of meaningful, thought-provoking characters, all because studios didn't trust black directors, black producers and black writers. Should Tarantino have ever directed Django, for example? Should he have just acted as producer and passed his idea off to a capable black writer-director who could bring something new to the table? Should he have at least collaborated with another writer to bring an authenticity to it instead of what he feels is his own contrived "black" perspective? How many ways could he have been inclusive with this and other projects? How many ways could other white creatives have been inclusive with their projects? Take The Help (2011), the film based on the book by white author Kathryn Stockett, which comes off as almost fanfiction as Stockett rewrites the lost chapters of her black nanny's life (who, it should be mentioned, sued Stockett for $75,000 in damages for using her life's story without permission). How would the story have changed if the film didn't solely rely on Viola Davis and Octavia Spencer to bring humanity to characters who were sketchily drawn, at best?
This is not to say that black directors always get it right (hello Tyler Perry and Marlon Wayans). It also doesn't mean other directors aren't capable of producing landmark films featuring characters of a different race; Steven Spielberg brought sensitivity and nuance to The Color Purple (1985), a staple in the modern African-American lexicon. But Spielberg was also working from Alice Walker's book, and her experience as a black woman gave her book—and the movie—the depth needed to speak honestly to a black audience. Coogler has definitely bought something personal to Black Panther, and that lived experience is something that can't be replicated or researched.
At the very least, I think from here on out, it should be known that if you want to make a film with a definitive and specific racial point of view and you're a creative who isn't of that race, it's best to get proper feedback from people who are living the experiences you want to bring to the screen. Authenticity is key—not an exaggerated "authenticity" we have come to associate with different races from years of watching stereotypes play out onscreen, but a true authenticity that reveals the lesser known parts of racial experiences. An authenticity that can, despite its specificity, touch everyone on a universal level.
I will not lie; it hurts me to take any points away from Black Panther. But I've got to be honest, right? The pain point comes from the fact that the film has bungled a possible storyline featuring a same-sex relationship. A plus is that Ayo (Florence Kasumba) is featured in the film. In Marvel's World of Wakanda comics, Ayo is in a relationship with fellow Dora Milaje warrior, Aneka. However, Aneka isn't in the film, and there is no LGBTQ focus in Black Panther. There was supposedly a flirtatious scene featuring Ayo and Okoye (Danai Gurira) which was later cut, and instead Okoye was paired with border guard head W'Kabi (Daniel Kaluuya)—a relationship that did not exist in the comics. Meanwhile, co-writer Joe Robert Cole told ScreenCrush that there was initially an intention to include a queer love story to pay respect to the World of Wakanda storyline, but that he didn't remember the cut scene in question.
Kasumba, however, did remember the scene and addressed it with Abraham Riesman of Vulture and Jamie Broadnax of Black Girl Nerds. Kasumba said if the people behind Black Panther wanted a queer love story in the film, it would be there, but it was cut for reason unbeknownst to her. She did add, though, that the film's ultimate goal was to be edited in a way that serviced T'Challa's story.
"...[A]t this point, I personally think people have no idea who T'Challa is, who are the Wakandans, what is Wakanda, where is Wakanda, what is their culture," she said. "There are so many important things that had to be told in these two hours. So the focus was on what is so important for T'Challa. What happens after the last movie that we saw. I know all the other scenes that we have also filmed that are not in the movie. People have their reasons why not."
In any case, the lack of mention of LGBTQ relationships or characters is the only thing the film has retained from its Marvel predecessors. That is not a good thing. But with so much going right for the film, I'd be hard-pressed to judge this film in the same vein as I would, say, a Transformers movie, rife with questionable gender and sexuality politics, or even other Marvel movies, which are routinely rooted in toxic masculinity.
Black Panther is one of the rare films that isn't led by a superhero who is drenched in this toxic psyche—instead, Coogler seems more interested bringing everyone together on the basis of shared humanity. Because of this, I feel that while Black Panther doesn't have overt LGBTQ representation, neither do I think it's against it in the way other Marvel films seem to be, as we see in Captain America: Civil War (2016), which essentially uses Sharon Carter as a beard so the public won't assume the film is, in essence, a triangle between the characters who share the most camaraderie—the Captain, his best friend Bucky, and Cap's teammate Falcon.
The point still stands, though, that Black Panther could have easily showcased a line or two of dialogue featuring a same-sex couple just as easily as they showed quick romantic interactions between Okoye and W'Kabi (who also had much of their romantic backstory dropped from the film), or between T'Challa and Nakia. To refer back to Kasumba's point, here's to hoping Black Panther 2 advances characters like Ayo now that audience members have a basic understanding of what Wakanda is and how it functions.
Mediaversity Grade: A 4.92/5
Black Panther is a masterclass of excellent, multifaceted images of marginalized people, though it's a shame that its obscuring of canonical LGBTQ relationships takes the final score down a notch. When it's all said and done, Black Panther has invigorated superhero fans and casual viewers alike.
With the amount of social outreach and activism the film has inspired, like #WakandaTheVote which is registering moviegoers to vote at the theater, Black Panther's reach will be felt for years to come. It's a film that has successfully broken out of Marvel's formulaic narratives and has transcended into the world of high fantasy entertainment with a social consciousness, similar to the Star Trek franchise and, increasingly so in these last few years, the Star Wars movies. If Marvel decided to quit expanding the MCU and just focused on Wakanda-based films forever, I'd be more than satisfied.

A friend has invited us to attend Janmashtami at a local Hindu Temple. This is a celebration of the birth of Krishna, and it was suggested that I bring fruit and an image of the baby Krishna. In this paper sculpture Krishna is holding a stick of butter that is dripping, because he was full of mischief and he loved butter. He is also associated with the peacock, among other animals. So many wonderful stories surround the life of Krishna, and I am excited to attend this celebration.
Update: September 5th, 2015
Janmashtami at the Hindu Temple was a complete delight. People of all ages sat cross legged on the floor, singing and clapping before beautiful images, draped in flowers and surrounded by flame. Children dressed like Krishna ran and giggled, and no one seemed to mind. We bathed in light and rocked a cradle with a tiny image of Krishna, then we ate food fragrant with spice. A clear outsider, I felt completely welcomed and guided by all.

The album was intended to be the soundtrack to a movie — a movie which, due to the relative commercial failure of the album, was never made.
30 years after the album's original release, U.K.-based writer, musician and independent filmmaker Seb Hunter has announced plans to produce a "post-apocalyptic road movie" based on '(Music From) The Elder'", with production slated to begin this summer. more on this story

Husbands illegitimate child
Q: I need advice please. Several years ago my husband wanted to marry a woman he made pregnant. I didn't accept it then because I feel it is wrong to want to cover up a big sin like that with marriage. He chose to stay with me when I gave him an ultimatum. The child is 11 years now. The mother passed on and he wants to bring the child to our home because she apparently got no relatives. I am not willing to bring this child up after all the pain he put me through he has the gumption to ask me to bring up his illegitimate child! I feel so much hatred for him right now.
A: Definitely it is not your responsibility to take care of his child. However, when the child has got nobody and it is totally sinless then it is something that we should make some considerations for. Just as we long for the perpetual mercy of Allah Ta`ala for ourselves we should be considerate and compassionate towards others, especially those who have nobody to support them.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Sometimes you take a hit that knocks the wind out of you. Sometimes it's self induced. That makes a bad moment even worse.
Early in June I fell off my bike. Falling from a dead stop is better than falling at 30 miles an hour, but still – it hurt. I was rolling slowly and stopped to give a homeless guy directions to the nearest train station.
My normal sequence during a stop is to unlock a shoe from the pedal and lean on that foot. This time my left shoe came loose as I leaned to my right – with the right shoe firmly attached to the right pedal. In the 2.1 seconds of this slo mo fall, three thoughts occurred:
- 0.0 – 0.8 seconds: Hmmm – somethin's not right.
- 0.8 – 1.5 seconds: I can save this.
- 1.5 – 2.1 seconds: This is gonna hurt.
Other than new strawberries for my elbow and knee, the biggest blow was to my ego – and even that wasn't too bad. I have done bike stupid before. But I was surprised at how long it took me to recover from a very minor fall. It took nearly five minutes to compose myself. I was winded.
Early this month, it happened again. The day after Labor Day I sat for a certification exam to become a Certified Fund Raising Executive ( CFRE ). After six years of experience in the field, a lengthy and expensive application process, a two-day review course, and many nights and weekends of study, I answered 200 multiple-choice questions during four hours in a closely-monitored test environment.
Despite nerves and a shaky start, by the end of the test I felt good. I entertained visions of teaching the review course next year. At the end of the exam, I hit the submit button and waited ages for the preliminary results. In less than a minute, I had a summary that was hard to comprehend. I failed the test. I was not good enough. I was winded.
It was worse than a physical blow. I left the testing center baffled – but faked it like I was cool. It took much longer than five minutes to regain my composure.
I was ready for the exam. I knew my stuff. But according to the CFRE test gods, my answers did not agree with theirs. The disappointment in myself was the deepest I'd felt in years.
My plan to be a fundraising stud was not to be. Not this year.
Once again I'm reminded that my plan is not always His plan. I start each morning with a few quiet minutes devoted to reading and praying. That time is invaluable. The two days immediately following the exam, I was reminded:
"The loud shout of steadfast faith is the exact opposite of the groans of wavering faith and the complaints of discouraged hearts." – from Streams in the Desert
"And Patience was willing to wait." – from Pilgrim's Progress
Where do I go from here? Do I spend more money to retake a test that may be flawed? Can my flawed brain retake a perfectly reasonable test? Do I study something different or differently? Is it worth the time? Is it really important? And on. And on. Too many nebulous questions. Too few clear answers.
I'm doubting myself, questioning my motives. I'm troubled.
But I'm still standing on the Rock of my salvation. It's always there. It's steady when I'm not. It grounds me in the storm. It lifts me when the waters rise. It supports me when I'm winded.
This afternoon, the official results arrived in the mail. A perfect score is 800. A passing score is 500. I scored 490.
This time I wasn't winded.

Charles Johnson's Final Tribute To Keith OlbermannPosted: November 28, 2017 Filed under: Charles "Icarus" Johnson, Humor, Little Green Footballs, Penis Penis Penis LOL | Tags: Charles Johnson, Keith Olbermann, LGF, Little Green Footballs, screenshots, Stalking, The Sage of Culver City, twitter 109 Comments
Yeah, Olbermann's an end alright, but Johnson is a bigger one.
GQ Magazine. Now there's a brilliant read. It's like Teen Vogue for 17 year old yuppie boys and a 65 year old magical jazzy ponytail who's right on the cutting edge of hip with his manly adoration of The Olberdouche.
Hey Charles. Tell you what. Post a current selfie or two within the next week and we'll quit mocking you. "Current" means a photo taken within the past 30 days, preferably with you stuffing your face full of Thanksgiving goodness. We'll wait.

I give it a week. I mean, the guy's been ranting like a straitjacketed meth-prophet for 20 years — what else is he gonna do? Talk about baseball? 😆
Admittedly, it ain't much of a life, but look at how this guy did somebody a solid and now he's hiring a financial consultant to help him give back. You can do it, Gus. Start hanging around gas stations with a few bucks to help stranded motorists, instead of lurking behind Safeway. Good luck, sir!
There is some hideous gossip floating about right now about how Karen Carpenter was allegedly abused by her brother throughout her life, and neglected/hated by her mother. Rather than rehash that ugliness, here's a clip that shows how much her voice meant to millions of people, whether they admit it or not. 😥
I don't buy the "abuse" line. I think Richard was simply an older brother who took little sister for granted. He didn't see her as "America's songbird". She was their fricking drummer in the beginning. A band member who sang back up. He was probably giving her arm frogs and head nuggies on the couch only a few years back. He was smart enough to see her as marketable and their ticket to fame and fortune once the PR people pointed it out. But people didn't really know about anorexia back then. I think he had no idea her life was in danger. And was truly stunned when she was suddenly gone.
Well, Morrissey has gone full-retard. Never go full-retard!
It's rare that President Trump lets an opportunity to clap back at a critic go unanswered. Kudos to him for denying Eminem that satisfaction. Also ignored, despite constant twitter-attacks, Fatass McDumbth. 😆
Eminem embarrassed himself with the Trump-attack rap, which was childish and lame, and he sucked ass on SNL a couple weeks back, according to the few people who watched that mess, libturds all. It's over, Slim. You had a good run.
Tom Brady has done alright for himself…
Given my Wolverines' dire struggles at QB this season, with an uncertain future and more "development time" looming next year, I was thinking about how Brady came to Michigan and fought for the starting job his whole time there, as the program brought in other highly-touted guys to take over. One in particular, Drew Henson, was a two-sport phenom who supposedly had his choice whether to become a Hall Of Fame baseball player or NFL superstar — Brady beat him out, too. Tom had something none of the other guys had, which was an unquenchable desire to improve himself as a player and win games, whatever it took. I loved him in his senior year at Michigan (no homo).
Drafted in the seventh-round by the Pats, he was considered something of an afterthought as a pro prospect. Well, their starting QB got hurt, and the rest is history. I hope he wins another championship this year. The guy looks like a prettyboy, claims to eat a very special and restricted diet, and refuses to act his age and go away quietly. He's nails, on the football field.
Oh, and Inflategate was a joke. A silly controversy, probably based on other Belichick shenanigans. The suspension only rested Brady, and he came back with a vengeance, just as he did in the second half of last year's Super Bowl.
As the old saying goes: "If you ain't cheating, you ain't trying." 😆
That's a true fact. "Cheating" is a fine art. Humans cheated other animals when we started using tools and weapons, to make up for our lack of claws, fangs and strength. In your face, Smilodon!
This was funny. I didn't read it until just now. I'm inclined to agree with both of you. Something funny happened in '05 with Taperiot Gate. They taped the practice of their opponents defensive schemes and Belichick use it and that shit was cranked into Brady's ear so he knew where to look. But did it matter to the best QB in the league anyway? Why did they even go their? Uh, it's New England. Boston in specific. I work with those people. YOU MUST WIN. Cheat if you have to. Even it if's undignifed and unfair. But maybe Belichick didn't know Tom was the best ever. All water under the bridge now. He's the best coach (or in top 5) and Tom's best QB probably ever. He's proved it and there's been no further cheating of significance (inflategate :)0 LOL) Seriously my only concern now is TB getting hurt. He's seriously flirting with disaster at age 40. And I think Belichick should consider that. I know Tom's going to win but right up until what? Some defensive lineman severs his spine?
Reminds me of the football game in M*A*S*H.
So delightful! The WH press whores try to pretend as though the President calling E. Warren (who of course is a proven liar and ethnic thief) Pocahontas is a "racial smear". Sanders easily troll hammers the little fuck wads. No one buys their stupid little moron lies anyway yet they continue to make complete asses of themselves as if normal people don't understand logic and rational thinking. The racial smear of course is a white privileged rich bitch corporate lawyer pretending to be a Native American minority knowing full well she's taking credit for something someone else deserves.
Sanders was standing in front of a baseball pitching machine and batted everyone of the inane questions over the left field bleachers. "NEXT?"
As I said a week or two ago, this woman has stolen my political heart. She's almost too good for this job. 🙂

LOL! When's Seth going to invite his fellow SNL actor Al Franken on to talk about tongue rape assaulting and groping beauty queen/presenters while they sleep?
Tapper tries to go off righteously on Trump. But we know for a fact that CNN international for years suppressed reporting atrocities and injustices in Saddam Hussain's Iraq purely to continue to have access. The guy's name was Eason Jordan.
On April 11, 2003, Jordan revealed that CNN knew about human rights abuses committed in Iraq by Saddam Hussein since 1990 in a New York Times story called "The News We Kept to Ourselves".[1]
Trump's right. They're left wing scum and fake news and always have been.
Wha??? That's gotta be "news" to the "writers" at NewsWeak. We have editorial standards????
😀 😀 😀
So blatant, so subtle and so retro all at the same time.
GQ I guess is alright if you haven't paid your internet bill and you can get your chubby stained paw under your pannus all the way to your wee willie winkie to have a quick wank. And if you also happen to be gay for Olbermann I'm not judging, just throwing up a little.
How does Olbermann type wearing a straitjacket?
Penis penis penis lol
They're coming for us. Not today, not tomorrow, but soon enough.
A lot of painful truth in this rant.
It's whorish and "wrong," certainly. But is it worse than losing it in a drunken one-nighter or with a casual acquaintance who just happens to be there when the primal urge strikes? Is it just smart business?
It just boils the "a pretty young woman marrying an ugly old geezer for money" down to the essential business transaction and eliminates the pretense.
When I put it that way it almost sounds honest.
And I can't argue with her mastery of logic. If it's her body and her choice, the rest of the Libs can shut up.
As you note, plenty more young women have lost their maidenhead over a half-bottle of Boone's Farm and their BFF's out-of-state cousin, and have the same potential regret sans the millions of dollars the next day.
I know. She makes a lot of sense. At the same time, I can't condone it completely, and would be horrified if any young female I cared about chose this route. An old fuddy-duddy, I am.
I'd like to clarify that this does not match MY morality, but I can't argue with her considering the other "transactions" that "modern" people (Feminists but not solely by any stretch) have reduced us to in their reckoning.
As ye sow shall also shall ye reap. This young woman's decision was not formed in a vacuum.
I think the issue is money being involved. You and I both have daughters. They make assessments and choices and decisions when to move and when not to. Their bodies are theirs naturally. I doubt yours and my daughters are making drunken decisions about that. They are making informed and sober decisions about a guy they really care about. And maybe the guy they go through life with. Not having sex because next month's rent. Selling off virginity is in that latter pragmatic category. It would sadden a parent. It's the category of the prostitute, the porn slut, etc… I don't mean to be harsh on those people. Many times they're motivated not just by money, but also addiction. College tuition is not that much more noble. Any idiot can figure that out without selling their body. Too I always wonder how does a girl recover? Say she meets mister right. He has to explain to his mom why his wife was a whore for an Arab first. Could make for some chilly dinner conversation.
The Conversation. Yikes! Awkward pause, and all that. Wait until Mom is trying to tell her teenaged daughter something, and the kid launches the Arab grenade. 😆
While the Left gloats and bellows about O'Keefe's latest operation going somewhat awry, it's important to remember how massively successful his previous campaigns have been. He took down ACORN, and he caught PP scumwads negotiating to sell baby-parts — the latter are now facing federal prosecution.
Keep going, James! You don't win 'em all, but your batting average is at least 900 pts higher than Fatass McDumbth's .000. 😆
Wow, Matt Lauer was just fired from NBC for "inappropriate sexual behavior in the workplace." But when will the top executives at NBC & Comcast be fired for putting out so much Fake News. Check out Andy Lack's past!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 29, 2017
Your turn in the barrel, Matt! 😆
Trump's tweet is priceless – the man is having too much fun.
Trump has millions of people holding his half-empty beers, watching "this".
/yes, I know he doesn't drink
The conspiracy-theorist in me is wondering about the fact that NBC quashed the Weinstein story done by Ronan Farrow when he was working for them, which he later published in The New Yorker and elsewhere. Did they know they were sitting on a ticking time-bomb in their top broadcast personality, Matt Lauer, who was playing grab-ass with all the young gals in the office? I suspect they knew.
As for Trump and his brilliant press secretary, their response to CNN's declination of the White House Holiday Party was perfect:
Don't change a thing, President Trump. 🙂
As does everyone else with two neurons to rub together, Chunky. 😆
"No, I'm the craziest bitch in the world!"
It's a fierce contest, but this lady's making a strong move to the hoop. 😆
There was a funny furry video a few years ago here. It was some weird sexy female furry that was just disturbing. And she had breasts and danced or something. And I remember reading the comments on the original site. One summed it up hilariously with " Now thanks to this I will never have another erection" LOL!
Philadelphia City Councilwoman wants to outlaw bulletproof glass in convenience stores, liquor stores, and all other criminally-targeted businesses.
Duh!!! Only Black Lives Matter. Everyone else should get shot in the face.
All of these celebrity and politician sexual allegations seem to once again prove our President Donald Trump correct. He said if you're rich, good looking and powerful you could (emphasis COULD) grab them right in the pussy. Sounds like a lot of these pervo guys like Franken, Rose, and Lauer have been doing just that and getting away with it for decades.
CNN bizarrely (actually comically, yet predictably) tries to blame the President. http://www.cnn.com/2017/11/29/politics/trump-lauer-tweet/index.html
Donald Trump takes the lowest of low roads on Matt Lauer
Wha??? Lauer gropes chicks and DJT takes a low road somehow by also pointing out NBC's lying narratives?
It would be funny but it is truly sad liberal young women feel they have to endure dirty unwholesome encounters with gross liberal old men to further their careers. I mean a young woman had to see Charlie Rose naked from the shower and then said nothing to anyone. And she's a REPORTER! LeeAnn Tweedon, a fricking beauty queen, Playboy girl and yet also a professional radio personality let old stinky Al Franken force a kiss on her, even holding her head so she had to fight him off. And then other insulting indignities. And yet said nothing until years later.
Disclaimer: Yes I know O'Reilly and Ailes were accused of the same. Not excusing them but this is turning into a pattern with liberals probably because they have no religion or morals.
OMG now Garrison Keillor and a top producer at NPR Sweeney. When will the accusations come out against Chunky Johnson? He must've groped a back up singer or two. But they probably judo chopped him and kicked him in the pannus and called it even. Plus they know he's broke.
I just learned recently that a surprising number of men enjoy being kicked in the balls by women. A lot of guys, reportedly, enjoy "ball torture" and whatnot. I don't know what to do with this information, so I'm just going to leave it here. 😯
George Duke kept Charles away from Sheila E. (whose recorded comment on Jazzy's funk improv was, "Bo—ring.")
Gusano retweeted this. Looks like Geraldo may be next on the chopping block.
Wonder why…
Dead Man Walking! 😆
But that's OK because she knew God is watching us. From a distance. And they said Bette you got no tits and a tight snatch. And she replied Geraldo get off my back.
Am I an ass or what? Don't answer.
Heh. Haven't heard that one in a long time.

I HAVE to say I find it disgusting and pathetic that so-called fans are slagging off Peter Jackson week in week out.
It makes me boil inside.
Only two-and-a-half years ago we were in administration with eight fit players and sitting in the bottom division.
Now, thanks to Jacko, with virtually no money to spend, we are very good contenders for promotion to the Championship.
I'm as disappointed as anyone that we have stuttered in recent weeks, but it's no reason to panic.
Just look at Arsenal - they have lost three games on the bounce. Are they suddenly a poor team? Should Wenger be sacked?
I think not.
What Jacko has achieved is nothing short of remarkable, and his record over the past two-and-a-half seasons is without doubt one of the best in the country.
Jacko is a legend and is getting better tactically all the time - but he is still learning all the time and may make mistakes along the way.
He has qualities that are priceless, however, and that can't be taught - the ability to motivate players and to help young players progress.
Please Santa
Dear Santa Ken.
As I've been a good lad this year, buying my season-ticket, giving my B&W money, buying a new shirt and shelling out for lots of away games, will you grant me one wish . . . let that nice Jacko Man bring in a couple of new Elves (well, players)!
You see the Elves we've got are looking a bit jaded and a couple with fresh legs and ideas might do the trick and get us up into the North Pole Championship, where we belong at least!!
The last few weeks I've seen some of our Elves - Slogger, Header, Slicer, Misser, Moaner & Chipper, but I think we need a Thinker and a Scorer!!
In past years we've brought in Loan-Elves and they've given us a bit of a lift (maybe even Plough some cash in and BUY an Elf!
That Jacko chap seems to find good 'uns though, doesn't he).
We'd Sleigh the opposition then!
I know Santa runs the show as a business, but a little Xmas preparation now could lead to bargains in the New Year!
Please Santa, grasp this huge opportunity we have over the next five months or so to put us all in a Blue and White Wonderland, which would suit all concerned. Things could easily Snowball from there!
Well, I hope this letter finds you Santa and we get a couple of new Elves in our Blue and White stockings.
And, don't forget - God helps him who Elves himself!
Merry Christmas.

THE performances of Town's young team are hard to predict.
On Saturday we were nowhere near standards in our previous home peformance against Forest.
But Southend weren't fifth from top for nothing and have won more away games (five) than they've lost.
What is predictable is the totally one-sided and negative comment that whinges its way around message boards.
In particular, the manager and the captain cop unbelievable criticism.
For example, you hear people saying `did you see PJ sat completely clueless as to how to change things.'
Well, no .
PJ would be unable to sit and watch a match involving Town because, like Worthy, he's 110% committed and wants to kick every ball.
Also, I seem to remember he did substitute the out-of-touch Hudson with Ahmed.
From where I sat, our strikers both missed a couple of decent chances and that was the main reason we didn't scrape what would have been a good win from a scratchy performance.
Voicing opinions
SO Peter Jackson gets incensed when his players are booed off the field by a certain section of the crowd.
Really, Mr Jackson. There is no law which prevents people voicing their opinions on professional footballers.
Perhaps you could get your players to go over to this section of the ground before the game and thank them. After all, these are most likely the same spectators who cheer the players off when they have played well.
But like all managers he will say he is protecting his young, highly paid professional footballers
M Wilkinson
rugby supporter
Bring in a striker
THE `blip' goes on down at the Galpharm.
Town could not even bounce back against a team who have not won in seven games and without several of their key players.
Southend came for a point in the first half, using time-wasting tactics to frustrate us.
Then, after half time, they realised we were not that good and could have won the match.
I feel when the transfer window opens we should try to get a striker and a central midfield player who have flair and can open up defences.
If we continue playing like this, we will be in mid table after Christmas and 6,500 Town fans will be very embarrassed at Stamford Bridge.

Ok, so I'm back. We had such a good time in Italy. We arrived back this week and am I happily exhausted. If you've ever or never been, it is both beautiful and hard work at the same time. In Firenze {Florence}, the history, the views, but oh those ancient cobblestone streets and steps, oy!
We climbed to the top of the Duomo of Santa Maria del Fiore, only 463 steps. There were little windows where you could stop and take in the city. Part of the cat walk is along the inside of the dome and you get to see the frescoes up close.
We traveled with friends that were fun and adventurous. We saw ancient art, we saw graffiti art and we ate. A day wasn't complete without cappuccino, pastries, pasta, pizza, wine and gelato, not always in that order and not necessarily only once a day. There was a lot of walking to do and stairs to climb and we needed fuel. [In case you've never been, you will be happy to know that carbs are still cherished in europe, so we ate them joyfully-and often.]
To rest our legs we rented vespas and toured the Chianti classico region for a day! [lunch in Castellina in Chianti]
A special treat came halfway through the trip when Dana flew in to join us and celebrate her 30th birthday [so of course we went for gelato!] and the next day we headed to Vernazza in Cinque Terre on the Italian Coast. {map]
and then there was the hiking. This is most of the reason people go to Cinque Terre. There are 5 fishing villages that you can "walk" to. [You can take trains and boats as well] Since this trip was planned before I was diagnosed I wasn't really sure if I was going to be able to do the "walking" when I got there. I told myself I would just take the train and meet them in the next town, but FOMO took over and I decided to give it a try, I mean, how hard could it be???
Wellllllll with stairs and steps that are sometimes narrow, uneven and steep, sometimes I found I had to lean on someone or grab a helping hand or just hold back and rest. I found with resting I could really enjoy the views ;-) I did better and much more than I thought I was going to, not without pain of course but I would have felt the pain of missing out if I didn't give it a go. [You will be happy to know that when they all hiked back to our village, I took a boat ride, which was lovely.] Truth be told, I would have had a hard time with these hikes with or without ovarian cancer, they are tough because of all the up and down, but they were so gorgeous!
Since I knew I couldn't hike every day, we came up with other things to do. We took a cooking class and made pesto and gnocchi which was so much fun.
We rented scooters again so Dana could have the experience and then rode the train for some of our transportation.
we made it to all 5 towns while we were there, plus we went north to Levanto to get out of the crowds and loved that too!

Adam brought along his intriguing idea for this cartoon-photography hybrid when he came to our house to take pictures to appear with the magazine's profile of me, which was expertly written by Kaitlin Bell. (See the snapshot Eddie took of Adam in action in my blog entry from November 12.)
I had great fun applying my drawing to Adam's portrait, and Berkshire Living has rewarded us for our efforts by giving full-page play to the result.
Although Eddie stayed modestly out of camera range during Adam's photo shoot in November, Lulu the dalmatian sat still and posed for Adam's camera the way she almost never will for Eddie's and mine, darn it! Lulu the blur would be an appropriate caption for most of the pictures Eddie and I manage to take of her!
But for Adam, she all but smiled for the camera. Even canines, it seems, can't resist the allure of fame.

Checkered Shirts
I've been a full time touring musician for just over five years now. For some, that's an eternity but, for me, it feels like a drop in the bucket. It's amazing how many things I've already forgotten. In my shaking the memory tree and seeing what falls out, this blog's become a welcome companion.
I'm scrolling through my Instagram feed and notice I wore recently the same checkered shirt I wore on February 2, 2013 in Rossland BC. We played a gig there, presumably. I don't know why wearing the same shirt four years apart's struck me as noteworthy. I mean, inarguably I need more shirts. I suppose I can't help comparing myself to the (slightly) younger man in that photo.
Four years ago, I'm newly single, nominally killing it but building the tracks just ahead of the train. A few days ago, that same shirt adorned the dad bod of an older, calmer schmuck lending advice to several up-and-coming Nashville musicians. These up-and-coming Nashville musicians speak with the same hurried enthusiasm and unchallenged optimism I remember so vividly, one that traveling's made more measured. I listen, forehead wrinkling in concentration, realizing that, somehow, I've become a guy who Knows Stuff.
I sometimes wonder how I look to musicians early in their careers. I'd like to think I'm this sage, Splinter from the Ninja Turtles kinda figure. Maybe I'm a cautionary tale. When you're 21, turning 30's about the most terrifying thing there is, and when 3-0 rears its ugly head there's no way you'll be blithering on like this dingus, right?
It's at this point I realize I'm writing this in my underpants. I'm happy about this, and I've worked hard for the honor. I've paid my dues. So, aspiring artists, enthusiastic craftspeople, practice, work, write, any number of verbs that require my using additional commas but, for the love of god, do so in your skivvies. That's when you know a Grammy's imminent.

We'd cross the bridge for the Mediterranean food from Garlic Crush in Bellevue.
Li'l Woody's in Capitol Hill is an extremely reliable burger spot.

How many identities do you have?
I have many but I'm hopefully not defined by any. I am a mother, a fiance, a designer, a collaborator, an entrepreneur, a traveller and a creative.. and I'm sure there are more in there somewhere! I have never really been big on job titles and that also goes for titles for myself. At the end of the day, I'm just a girl going for her dreams with her family by her side. To be honest, I still cannot believe I am a mother or an entrepreneur. The idea of what they are in my head is so different to what and who I am! When someone asks me what I do I usually respond with, "I'm a Landscape Designer". But it is a little more multi-faceted than that. I've realised I really need to work on my elevator pitch!
Have you always been creative?
Not at all. I stumbled, or should I say fumbled, across my creativity. Growing up, I was a math and science kid. I was studious, shy and the thought of art class or theatre made me extremely anxious! A case of rebellion in Year 11 led to a drop in grades and the dream of going to Uni to become a Zoologist slipped away. I was pulled into the principal's office and advised I would not graduate from high school if I continued the way I was. To ensure this wasn't my fate I had to swap my TEE subjects to dance, photography, maths in practice and IT. I was so out of my comfort zone but it turned out to be one of the best years I've ever had at school. Thankfully I graduated, and gained use of a whole other side of my brain that I never knew existed! I still remember how much of a failure I felt at the time. I never thought I would recover from it. I had dreamed of going to University and become a Zoologist for as long as I could remember. I now see that time as a beautiful lesson and opportunity. It was the start of my creative path.
What made you start your own company?
I had my first job at 13, working in the bakery at the Wanneroo Markets. I've tried many different job roles and I've had some pretty testing jobs - telemarketer and door to door sales were some of the worst - but even in these jobs I always did my best. I've never been afraid of hard work, but I found I just couldn't stick to one job. I was either always looking for more or felt unsettled, or should I say trapped! I'm not from an entrepreneurial family so the world of business was very foreign to me. But working 9-5 for someone else didn't appeal to me.
I knew there was something else out there but I wasn't sure what it was until I decided to pack my bags and head to the UK on a 2 year working visa in my early 20's. Before settling in London I wanted to travel through the US and Central America but I was working in retail fashion at the time and my store manager wage definitely wasn't going to cut it! I had to find a way to make some money to cover my round the world ticket and trip. At the time, I was making earrings and jewellery to wear with my outfits to work. Friends, family and customers were always asking where I got them from so I started taking orders. One day I had a thought... If I could get these stocked in a nationwide store I might be able to get enough money together to make this trip a reality. I called Sportsgirl, asked for the name of the accessories buyer and sent a range of samples. I will never forget the day I got a call from them to place an order for one of the lines to be stocked Australia wide. That was the day I knew I wanted to start my own company, one that would allow me to build a life for myself and my future family.
What made you decide to become an author?
I am open and I love to share. I think that's why writing and publishing a book has been a dream of mine since I started in the landscape industry a decade ago. I recently self-published my first book, SLIGHTLY GARDEN OBSESSED III. I opened my design business, Slightly Garden Obsessed, three years ago. The past three years have been the most amazing years of my life, both personally and professionally. I wanted to capture those years and projects in time. I have had a few book ideas over the past ten years but this was the one I felt I had the right content for to provide inspiration and share a little about my story. The next will be very different to this.
How do you balance motherhood with such a thriving career?
You know what? I don't! I am yet to find that balance. Sebastian is 6 months old and needs Phil and I more than anything right now so there's a lot of working around his sleeping, which means late nights and working through the weekend. This had taken its toll around the 4-5 month mark and for the first time ever I wanted to quit the business. I felt guilty to Seb for working and I felt guilty to my clients if I was spending time with Seb. I know - crazy! I knew I was letting clients down with blown out timeframes. Not one of them have said a thing to me - I have the most amazing clients - but I knew within myself I had let them down. I had let myself down. (I am very hard on myself btw). It is so fortunate that Phil now has a few months off from work to allow me to get back on top of things and we have help from our parents here and there. It really does make all the difference.
I approach my business differently now. I realised I used to work myself to the bone. I understand how precious time is now. My choices are clear. I have a newfound appreciation for what I do. I am grateful I have this business that allows me to be with my family at all times. I choose the work I want to take and set clear intentions to what that will be. I feel I have evolved.
What do you believe the secret to happiness is?
I believe everyone's idea of happiness is different. For me, happiness is being able to provide for my family, having my best friend as my life partner and creating memories together by living life to its fullest. Pretty simple.
What advise would you give to other "Modern Day Women" out there to inspire them to embrace their multiple identities?
There is so much to learn of ourselves when we push past the comfort. I see multiple identities as opening up, stretching and evolving. We become better versions of ourselves as we add depth and layers. This cannot happen if we stay within the same identity, day in and day out.

No one understand's Claudio Ranieri's situation better than Jose Mourinho or Pellegrini and Mancini.
They all have been there.
Mourinho wore those shoes not too long ago. A year ago to be precise. He was shown the exit door seven months after guiding Chelsea to Premier League victory. The Portuguese took to his instagram page to send a heartfelt message to his colleague who was fired yesterday as Leicester City coach.
The Manchester United coach wrote, "CHAMPION OF ENGLAND and FIFA MANAGER of THE YEAR⚽.sacked.
Thats the new football claudio.keep smiling AMICO?.nobody can delete the history you wrote."

About me
I have worked in many software projects in many different roles. My passion keeps drawing me to modern, innovative approaches and technologies that help you think outside the box. It is important to me to continuously develop my knowledge and my products and to proceed step by step in all projects. Often the term of agile software development is used today. Since this term has now received some negative connotations due to bad experiences, I prefer to use the term "progressive software development". It implicitly contains both: the process, as well as the product. Both are iteratively structured and are constantly reviewed and improved. My experience in large companies combined with the flexibility of a small company make me the ideal app development partner for both SMEs and global companies.

There is no denying the fact that Halloween brings quite a stir of energy. There are fireworks popping in the air, bonfires being lit and people of all ages are encouraged for this one night to forget who they are supposed to show up as and can become whoever they want. For one night you can walk down the middle of the street, in the dark, wearing whatever crazy thing makes you feel good and run into your neighbours doing the exact same thing! And of course there is candy.
I love Halloween, I always have. I love the decorations and the smell of fireworks. I love dressing up and seeing everyone else all dressed up. I love watching kids so proud of who they have become. I love that we open our doors to each other and give treats. The whole thing is crazy really! I love it.
Halloween reminds me that life is not always so serious and it's fun to be silly. It's fun to forget what time bedtime is, how much sugar is in candy and if you are dressed appropriate to go out. Life goes quickly and although there is something to be said for the "order" we set for ourselves there is also something to be said for once and awhile just showing up, having fun and maybe even eating candy.
Have a safe and silly night,

I was looking to see if at home hit guages existed. At the right price an absolutely brilliant idea in my opinion.
Apparently, it is not that easy to execute. All I could find was this bad boy, the Herman Wavemaster and digital trainer combo:
http://www.blackbeltshop.com/herman_...ster_combo.htmThe Herman Digital Trainer with Power Sensor is designed specifically for martial artists and provides objective measurements of power, speed and technique through digital feedback.
The HDT measures and records the impact of a preselected number of hits, or number of strikes over a specific time interval, and calculates the maximum power, the average power and the total score for each technique.
It reminds me of a Bop Bag. Anybody seen/ used anything like this (not the wave bag the digital guage)?
I think it would be a huge hit at fraternity houses across the US.

Jonathan Raban
Jonathan Raban
Intrigued by the Arabs, dressed in floor-length robes and yashmaks who began holidaying in London after the 1970s oil boom, Raban wanted to discover the reality of their home lives and world view. His quest took him through Bahrain, Qatar, Abu Dhabi, Yemen, Egypt and Jordan. What he discovered was a far cry from the camel, tent and sand-dune archetypes of early European explorers. Oil wealth had seeped into almost every corner, and Bedouin encampments had been replaced by cosmopolitan boomtowns, camels by Range Rovers. The sons of Bedouin nomads were now studying medicine in Europe and engineering in New York. Yet in this fast-moving world, old certainties remained.
Raban's gift for friendship gives us a series of affectionate individual encounters which collectively create a true and invaluable picture of Arabian society.
'His writing has become an absolute touchstone for me, as for many others. Not exactly travel books, more like personal pilgrimages, with all those fiercely observed encounters along the way, both sardonic and yet lyrical… so stylish, so fearless, so observant, rising to a kind of visionary intensity whenever he abandons the human (often with apparent relief) and writes about landscape and water but always with a deep underlying melancholy, haunting and haunted, magnificent works of exile.' Richard Holmes
Arabia: Through the Looking Glass
Format: 312pp demi pb
Place: Arabia, Middle East
Author Biography
Born in the middle of the Second World War in 1942, Jonathan Raban was brought up in Norfolk by his mother, who not only taught her son to read, but shared her own delight in writing and good storytelling with him. Jonathan's relationship with his father, who returned from the war a total stranger and a hero, and went on to be an Anglican clergyman, was much more complex. The tension between this moral martinet and his louche and feckless son seems to have fuelled Raban's knowing and savagely funny critique of his own British culture, and to have enabled him to escape his homeland with such relish.
Raban read English at the University of Hull and was briefly an academic before launching himself as a freelance writer, becoming part of the brilliant and hard-drinking literary crowd centred around Ian Hamilton's New Review. A freelance assignment for the BBC, recording Freya Stark barging down the Euphrates, inspired his first travel book, Arabia: Through the Looking Glass (1979). He went on to float down the Mississipi (Old Glory, 1981) and sail round the shores of Britain (Coasting, 1986). For Love and Money (1987) is a searingly honest memoir and a funny and affectionate look at the freelance writing trade, while the journey described in Hunting Mr Heartbreak (1990), into and across America, led him to settle in Seattle. The birth of a daughter confirmed the city as home. While in the States, Raban has written Bad Land (1996), Passage to Juneau (1999) and Driving Home (2011) as well as such fictional works as Waxwings (2003) and Surveillance (2006).

Lethabong is a township outside of Pretoria. Some of the men and women who live in Lethabong are employed by a local restaurant and wedding venue, Rosemary Hill. Cindy is one of those people. She prepares food at Rosemary Hill everyday and brings it to Lethabong where children who come from poor and single parent households receive a meal.
In attempts to "make things better", children ages 8-12 created an advertisement campaign for the Lethabong Feeding Scheme. More than 50 posters were hung around Lethabong. Every toilet and water tank had an advertisement containing information on where, what, and why the feeding scheme was operating in Lethabong. These photographs document the advertisement campaign.


text: If you have little previous experience, setting up your own Internet site might seem complex. Computer programming and website design are not the simplest things to learn, so if you want to start your online presence, you may use site themes. A theme is a pre-made website that you can edit by adding your own textual content, pics, links within the site or to external content, etc. Some web templates may be more complex and may offer more options including choosing the color scheme or the amount of columns on the website through an easy-to-use visual interface, so even if you have never designed a site before, you can still develop a wonderful and professionally looking one with just several clicks.
