When the late Sasha Petraske opened Milk & Honey on the Lower East Side in 1999, he started the first wave in a sea change in how bars crafted both cocktails and the environments in which we consumed them. Quality spirits were key, naturally, but so were things like fresh juices and clear, properly cut ice -- not to mention attention to technique. And the spaces themselves were austere, with rules ("no name-dropping, no star-fucking; no hooting, hollering, shouting or other loud behavior") that helped to encourage a sort of reverence for the art of the cocktail.
Of course, a whole lot has changed since then. Now, it's almost a challenge to find a bartender incapable of making a proper Old Fashioned or Manhattan. So when determining which cocktail bars in NYC are the best today, it obviously isn't enough that the staff knows how to properly stir (not shake!) a martini (gin, not vodka!) -- that's a foregone conclusion these days. Nearly 20 years after Petraske opened his seminal bar, a different sort of atmosphere and approach are key, with many of the top bars in the city dropping (or at least modifying) some of the rules and rigidity of their forebears in favor of a little more adventure and fun -- while, of course, holding on to the standards that kickstarted the cocktail revolution all those years ago. From a cheerful tiki den to an East Village spot that takes its cues from the spice rack, these are the best cocktail bars in NYC.
The 'Game of Thrones' Pop-Up Bar Is Now Open in Washington, DC
Lower East Side
Opened in the original Milk & Honey space by two of its longtime bartenders, Sam Ross and Michael McIlroy, Attaboy takes the standards of Sasha Petraske's revolutionary bar (quality liquor; fresh juices; clear, carved ice) and houses them in a grittier, way-less-formal atmosphere. There are none of Petraske's notorious rules here -- and there's also no menu, so get comfortable with the pro bar staff and bare your soul (Are you in the mood for something refreshing, with gin, perhaps? Or maybe something spirit-forward, with whiskey?). Whatever route you take, you're in good hands: Ross, who still works the bar from time to time, is the man behind a host of modern classics, like the Penicillin, with whiskey, honey-ginger syrup, lemon, and Islay Scotch.
Clover Club
Cobble Hill
Julie Reiner is one of the cocktail world's OGs, having stamped her name on spots like the Flatiron Lounge and Pegu Club (the latter headed up by the legendary Audrey Saunders). But it's Reiner's Cobble Hill bar, Clover Club, that hits all the right notes with its thoughtful cocktail menu and deceptively casual vibe. The grandiose interior, with its burnished-wood accents and tufted furniture, may seem a little intimidating at first glance. But nab a seat at the bar and you'll find the atmosphere is warm and inviting -- and that includes the staff, who don't adopt the stereotypical bad attitude that tends to be on display at other, similar establishments. The menu follows suit: while drinks hew to the standards of classic cocktailing, they often come with an unassuming twist. See the "Garden to the Glass" menu section for inventive drinks like the Victory Garden, made with gin, tomato water, strawberry, and sherry.
Angel's Share (Annex)
East Village
The original Angel's Share, hidden inside the East Village's Village Yokocho, has been turning out refined cocktails for almost two decades, even helping to establish some of the standards for cocktailing we still see today (it's said Petraske himself took cues from the bar). It's a spot that helped set a new pace for the industry: creative menu, accommodating staff, and keen attention to detail. Now, in true neo-speakeasy fashion, this old-school drinking den has its own hidden bar -- well, more like an annex (it's a few doors down from the original, above Sharaku). Angel's Share 2.0 is where you turn when you're we're looking for a more open and inviting space; plus, wait times for tables here are significantly shorter. While the original location has more classic preparations on the menu (the traditional martini is a must-try), the annex offers quirkier spins on old standbys, like a leather-aged boulevardier, poured tableside from a pouch.
Cobble Hill
After working behind the stick for almost half a decade at Julie Reiner's Clover Club, Ivy Mix stepped out to co-helm (with Reiner) this colorful, lively spot right across the street from her former stomping grounds. Latin-American spirits and flavors inform the drink list here, which includes standards like tequila and every kind of rum you can imagine, as well as more esoteric picks like singani, a sort of Bolivian pisco. (If a cocktail isn't in the cards, the bar also offers a number of tasting flights for spirits -- extra points there.) Even better, Leyenda has some seriously knockout bar food from Suenos vet Sue Torres. The move is to settle in for a cocktail like upgraded Mai Tai (appropriately called the Tia Mia) and some roast pork tacos for dinner.
Long Island Bar
Cobble Hill
While bar owner Toby Cecchini is best known for inventing the Cosmopolitan, you won't find the Sex and the City girls' favorite cocktail on the menu here (though you can still get one if you ask nicely). The bar feels like it's been around forever, mostly because it has -- it was once an old-school neighborhood diner, and the neon-lit facade remains the same as it always was. The interiors follow suit, with retro decor and leather booths, where you can post up with a classic Boulevardier served in a coupe glass and one of the borough's best burgers.
East Village
The premise for this East Village den's menu, from Experimental Cocktail Club's Nico de Soto, is pretty straightforward: each drink is based on an individual spice. But that doesn't mean the cocktails here are simple. De Soto plays with seemingly incompatible ingredients in unique ways to create concoctions with shockingly complex flavor profiles, like red cabbage with yerba mate, or Aperol with beet juice, coconut cordial, and a mace mist. It also doesn't hurt that crowds are tame here, which means you can actually watch the bartenders juggle jiggers, bottles, and beakers to make you something you've never tasted before.
Dutch Kills
Long Island City
There are plenty of standout spots to drink in Long Island City (craft-beer temple Alewife; local favorite LIC Bar), but there's only one Sasha Petraske-affiliated cocktail bar. Of course, that means you can expect a quality drink (made with crystal-clear hand-carved ice from Hundredweight, housed in the same building as DK), but it also means you can expect this bar to be straight-up packed. No matter, because Dutch Kills' classic-leaning cocktails -- not to mention the kickass bar food from M. Wells, and an $8 Monday-through-Thursday happy hour -- make any amount of jostling worthwhile.
Bar Goto
Lower East Side
Bar Goto may seem like the most serious-minded of all of the picks on this list, what with its sleek, simple décor (a golden-wood bar, a row of two-tops, and a mirror-lined back bar) and hushed atmosphere. Still, the air here isn't somber -- it's actually quite calming, which is the best way to savor the Japanese-influenced cocktails from Pegu Club vet Kenta Goto. The sake-and-gin Sakura Martini, garnished with its namesake cherry blossom, or the Improved Shochu Cocktail, delivered in a masu, or sake "overflow" box, are choice spirit-forward picks. If you're not looking to go the super-boozy route, opt for the dessert-y Rum Oshiruko, made with red bean soup and dark rum, and served on crushed ice with mochi ice cream. Once you inevitably find yourself hungry after all that drinking, the chicken wings here are practically required eating, and you can't go wrong with the sesame celery.
Mother of Pearl
East Village
The closings of PKNY and Lani Kai in recent years haven't exactly portended great things for the success of Tiki culture in New York City. But Mother of Pearl, nearly a year old, is still going strong slinging piña coladas in the East Village. That's good news for the rum lovers, coconut enthusiasts, and vegans in your life. Yes, everything at Mother of Pearl, down to the food, is animal-free -- unless you count the bourbon-and-passion-fruit Shark Eye cocktail, served in a ceramic shark's head with "blood" streaming from its jaws. It's a drink worthy of a picture, for sure, but really, the entire scene at Mother of Pearl is a vision: wooden fans wave in the main bar area, flowy white curtains flutter in the breeze, and a leafy green "chandelier" welcomes imbibers into this oasis on Avenue A.
Dear Irving
Union Square
If you're looking for an escape along with your cocktail, Meaghan Dorman's Union Square "cocktail parlor" has you covered -- threefold. There's the super-sexy crystal-curtained anterior, where you can sip on an actually delicious espresso martini (a popular choice for good reason: Dorman makes hers with a specially chosen Irving Farm Coffee Roasters cold brew and vanilla liqueur); a classic burnished-wood bar area, which offers ample seating; and a Marie Antoinette room, which is just as ornate as its name suggests. Drinks here are as delicious as you'd expect from the woman behind the Raines Law Room, but it's the vibe -- or vibes, really -- that make this spot a draw.
Lower East Side
The cocktail menu at this pint-sized subterranean bar covers all of the bases, from boozy "Firewater" options (the amari-forward Family Affair is a favorite) to easy-to-drink "Go-To Goodness" picks (try the refreshing Jaguar Shark). Naturally, the drinks here get the attention to detail you'd expect from an industry vet like Natasha David, previously of Maison Premiere and Prime Meats. Cocktails, poured under a watchful eye, and stirred or shaken 'til they're perfectly cold, are thoughtfully garnished with things like candied ginger and fresh florals, making them a treat for the eyes as well as the palate. And you can forget those stereotypical cocktail-bar hushed tones -- the crowd here tends to be playful (but not rowdy), so it's a great choice if you and a crew are looking for a few rounds of well-made drinks.
Amor y Amargo
East Village
It's not a stretch to say that no NYC bar is more responsible for the (OK, relative) popularity of amari -- those bitter, herbaceous Italian liqueurs -- on the drinking scene today. This 6th St establishment puts traditional classic-cocktail spirits in second place and shines the spotlight on those until-now-obscure elixirs like Fernet Branca, Cynar, and Meletti, an antidote if you're suffering from Tom-Collins, Old-Fashioned, or classic-daiquiri burnout. Seating here isn't exactly plentiful, so come early if you want to post up, and get the 8 Amaro Sazerac, a "House Favorite," which mimics the original beautifully while ditching the rye whiskey altogether.
Grand Army
Boerum Hill
While Grand Army's drinks maestro Damon Boelte made a name for himself crafting riffs on classics at Prime Meats, his cocktail-and-oyster spot is where his creativity really shines. Boelte takes a seasonal approach to his menus, constructing them around specific themes. Most recently, it was cocktails "inspired by our favorite Gilmore Girls episodes." The space itself is a welcome break from the cramped spots you find lining Smith and Court Sts; it's wide open, with a wood bar front and center, just begging you to have a drink and a dozen briny bivalves.

Guards at Tomb of the Unknowns Stand Tall
ARLINGTON, Va. - As the winds from Hurricane Isabel swept over Arlington National Cemetery, the soldiers who guard the Tomb of the Unknowns were given - for the first time in history - permission to abandon their posts and seek shelter.
"They told us that. But that's not what's going to happen," said Sgt. Christopher Holmes, standing vigil on overnight duty. "That's never an option for us. It went in one ear and right out the other."
The monument was established in 1921 with the interment of an unknown World War I soldier. A sentry has been posted there continuously since 1930.
With the fierce storm bearing down Thursday night, cemetery officials decided to let the guards move indoors if they felt they were in danger. Cemetery Superintendent John Metzler said he believed it was the first time they have been allowed to do so.
"We certainly didn't want to put these guards in jeopardy unnecessarily," Metzler said.
The tomb is protected by soldiers from the 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment. Usually about a half-dozen are there, taking turns standing guard, and security cameras also are used.
Holmes' group was on duty for 24 hours, from 6 a.m. Thursday until 6 a.m. Friday. They took turns patrolling the tomb in hourly shifts.
The tomb consists of four graves. Three contain remains of soldiers who died in World War I, World War II and Korea. The fourth, representing unknown soldiers who died in Vietnam, now stands empty; the remains it used to hold were identified about five years ago using DNA technology.
Staff Sgt. Alfred Lanier, also on duty Thursday night, said guards might move inside if the storm became truly life-threatening. But he didn't think it was likely.
"Once you become a badge holder, it's like you'll do whatever you have to do to guard the unknowns," Lanier said. "For one, it's my job. And for two, that's just how much respect I myself have for the unknowns. That's just something we cherish."
The sentries were not entirely unprotected in the storm; they wore rain gear and could warm up with coffee or hot chocolate when not standing guard.
Holmes said he was willing to risk his life keeping watch over the tomb.
"It's just considered to be the greatest honor to go out there and guard," Holmes said. "It's not only the unknowns. It's a symbol that represents everyone who's fought and died for our country."
The cemetery is the resting place of more than 260,000 people. Twenty-one funerals were held there Thursday, and 16 were scheduled Friday.
Another famous symbol at the cemetery, the eternal flame over President John F. Kennedy's grave, was left on its own through the storm. The natural gas-powered flame can sputter out in heavy wind or rain, but is designed to immediately reignite itself.
The Sentinels Creed
My dedication to this
sacred duty is total and wholehearted.

GAME PREVIEW: Gulls and Heat Meet for Sixth Time This Season (7:05 p.m.)
San Diego enters tonight's contest with a 25-20-1-1 (52 points) record on the season. Stockton's current record is 21-21-1-2 with 45 points. The teams last met on February 5, a home contest where the Gulls walked away with a 4-2 victory.
During that matchup, Gulls winger Bryan Moore opened scoring for San Diego just over five minutes into the first period. Matt Berry followed with his own goal at 6:31 to give the Gulls a 2-0 lead, which they held going into the intermission.
Stockton's Derek Grant decreased the deficit to one with a power play goal at 16:13 of the second period.
Shane O'Brien netted the third Gulls goal at 7:13 of the final frame to stretch the lead back to two. Heat center Turner Elson scored the second and final Stockton goal with just under six minutes remaining in the final frame, but Gulls center Joseph Cramarossa sealed the score with a goal of his own with thirty seconds left in regulation.
San Diego and Stockton will face each other seven more times this season (including tonight). Three of these contests will be held at Valley View Casino Center and four will be held at Stockton Arena in Stockton, CA.

The Effects of rTMS on Criterion Shifting during Memory Recognition
Evan Layher1, Lukas Volz1, Tyler Santander1, Michael Miller1; 1University of California Santa Barbara
Previous recognition memory fMRI studies revealed that the successful retrieval effect (SRE) contrast (hits > correct rejections) is associated with increased activity across the inferior and middle frontal gyri (IFG and MFG) when people establish a cautious versus lax decision criterion. To expand on this finding, we used offline repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to inhibit cortical regions within the right IFG and MFG in an attempt to disrupt the maintenance of a cautious criterion. Participants (N=20) conducted memory recognition tasks during fMRI scanning, which included a cautious decision bias (only 30% of test images were studied). This provided us with subject-specific rTMS target sites based on peak activity within the right IFG and MFG from the SRE contrast. On 3 separate research visits, participants performed memory recognition tasks before and after rTMS. During a single visit, participants performed two study/test cycles that included studying 100 face images (300ms each) followed by two recognition tests with either 30% (cautious) or 70% (lax) of test items being previously studied. In between the study and test phases of the second cycle, participants underwent rTMS of the IFG, MFG, or occipital vertex (sham). Contrary to our predictions, we observed that participants established a more cautious decision criterion following rTMS of the right IFG (p<0.05), but no difference in criterion shifting following rTMS of the right MFG relative to sham stimulation. These results suggest that rTMS of the right IFG can causally manipulate a decision criterion (although in the opposite direction as predicted).

Holidays like Veterans Day and Memorial Day bring the dedicated service men and women protecting our country front and center in our minds. Their bravery and sacrifice grant us the security and freedom we enjoy daily, and with November 11, Veterans day, fast approaching, now is a great time to refresh your knowledge of VA loans and possibly even expand into a new niche market. Here are 5 things you may not know about VA loans.
- They're reusable.
Even if someone has used a VA loan in the past, they're still eligible for a new loan. Service members can reuse the loan as many times as they like. Furthermore, service members with bankruptcies and foreclosures may still qualify for a VA loan, even if it was a VA loan they foreclosed on.
- Only certain homes are eligible.
VA loans are primarily designed for move-in-ready homes that will be the service member's primary residence. While there are a few exceptions, commercial properties, investment properties, and vacation homes are typically ineligible.
- The VA doesn't issue the loans.
The VA doesn't actually provide the loans; they just guarantee the loans (usually up to 25%), making lenders more confident and allowing service members to get better terms and rates.
- No mortgage insurance required.
The VA's guarantee eliminates the need for service members to purchase mortgage insurance for their loans, saving them thousands of dollars. However, there is a funding fee of about 2-3% of the loan amount for VA loan recipients. This fee helps keep the VA loan program going and can be rolled into the loan amount or waived for those with service-connected disabilities.
- They have co-borrower restrictions.
Having a co-borrower who isn't the spouse of the service member or another veteran with VA loan entitlement who will also live in the home will require a down payment on the home.
For more information about securing VA loans for your buyers, visit Veteransunited.com or catch this month's Secrets of Top Selling Agents webinar program on Helping Veterans Achieve Homeownership. The webinar will be on Wednesday, November 8th from 1:00 – 2:00 PM EST. Don't miss it!

A former maths professor has turned detective to demonstrate just how useful – and how entertaining – his subject can be.
James Stein, emeritus professor of mathematics at California State University, Long Beach, has long enjoyed the way that "mathematics has managed to infiltrate itself into science fiction".
Two of his favourite stories involve a mathematician who "summons Lucifer and bets his soul that the Devil can't come up with a proof of Fermat's Last Theorem in 24 hours" and "the unexpected consequences when the city of Boston constructs a subway system with bizarre topological properties".
This led him to an idea of using detective fiction for "the most student-friendly math text ever written", aimed at those taking introductory maths for liberal arts courses common in American universities.
He suspects that L.A. Math: Romance, Crime, and Mathematics in the City of Angels is the first "collection of stories, with a continuing set of characters, in which mathematics plays an important role".
The title refers to both liberal arts and Los Angeles, he explains in the preface, because "there's still a mystique and a fascination to L.A. that Wichita, Kansas, and Peoria, Illinois, simply don't have". Putting it in a title, therefore, "virtually guarantee[s] people will be interested – I hope, even if the next word is 'Math'".
So how do the stories pan out? Private investigator Freddie Carmichael is starting a new life in Los Angeles but still pining for his ex-wife Lisa in New York. He finds accommodation in a guest house owned by Pete Lennox, whom he instantly diagnoses as "a sports junkie. Probably a sports better."
As he begins to pick up cases of dodgy bookies, insider trading and murdered heiresses, he soon discovers that Pete's gambler's instinct for the figures can be just as effective as hours of dogged detective work.
By the end, readers should have acquired some of the basics of algebra and geometry, probability, game theory and the mathematics of elections.
On the way, Professor Stein has fun adopting the voice of a hard-boiled, wise-cracking private eye. When Freddie gets worried that Pete might be about to move away, he consoles himself with the thought that "Pete and inertia were more than just on speaking terms; they were really good buddies". Trying to get back together with Lisa, he tells her that he has turned vegetarian and reflects that "it's not a complete lie. There have been periods when I eat no meat. Those periods, however, tend to coincide with the periods between meals."
James Stein's L.A. Math: Romance, Crime, and Mathematics in the City of Angels has just been published by Princeton University Press.

Our two person design team was asked to concept, design, and produce a month long exhibit detailing the complexities of San Francisco's school lunch program.
The New Lunchroom exhibition showed at Mission High School in San Francisco during the summer of 2013. The purpose of the exhibit was to display dense and complicated research conducted by an IDEO team of business designers. Needless to say, the amount of information was immense, and we were asked to collaborate with the business designers to concept, design, and produce the exhibit. Using hand drawn type, rough illustrations, and beautiful photographic portraiture, we designed and constructed an immersive experience that felt both inclusive and exciting.

(TNS) — At first glance, it sounds like a dream: Getting paid to learn the latest in high-tech computer skills and then working for the company that's heading up the program -- all without leaving the Kentucky mountains.
A program at the Paintsville branch of the Big Sandy Community College is teaching a select group of Eastern Kentuckians high-end computer skills. The students -- 55 were selected for the first class out of an applicant pool of 850 -- are in a rigorous program in which they are paid to learn, will get paid internships and will then work for Interapt, a high-tech Louisville company.
The upside is that the program will continue; the downside is that the number of students in the program is down to 36 after just two months.
Still, for those who can complete the rigorous training, there's a chance to stay in the mountains and make a living with Interapt, started by Owensboro native Ankur Gopal.
The program, formally called Interapt TechHire East Kentucky -- TEKY for short -- is a public-private partnership designed to develop a technology system to put Eastern Kentucky workers on their way to becoming computer coders.
In August, the Eastern Kentucky Concentrated Employment Program was awarded $2.75 million for the technology project. Partners besides Interapt include Shaping Our Appalachian Region -- known as SOAR -- and the community and technical college system. The money came from an Obama administration project called TechHire, which distributed funds into programs across the nation, noting that there is a large and growing unmet demand for tech workers, and that, with tech jobs paying 1 1/2 times the average wage of a private-sector job, it's "a pathway to the middle class."
The project is supported by the Eastern Kentucky Concentrated Employment Program Inc., which provides funding primarily through two Coal Mining and Community Impact National Emergency Grants.
Gopal said he was contacted by Jeff Whitehead, director of the Eastern Kentucky Concentrated Employment Program; U.S. Rep. Hal Rogers, R-Somerset; and retired Lexington businessman Jim Host, representing SOAR, which serves 54 counties in southeastern and Eastern Kentucky.
The question Gopal was asked was whether he could create an opportunity for potential employees in their home areas.
After doing some research around the region, Gopal agreed to the establishment of the program.
From the 850 applicants for the first program, 49 students were chosen, plus six advanced students to be teaching assistants.
The application process cast a wide net, seeking diversity, program director Matthew McClellan said. Of the initial 850 applicants, more than 400 completed the first set of online interviews, 300 were invited for a second set of interviews, and then 180 for the next round.
The qualifications needed were not a snap: Applicants had to know how to work simple mathematical equations that include operator precedence; the associative, commutative and distributive properties; and simple functions such as f(x) = x +3. Those selected spend between six and eight hours in class a day, five days a week, except for holidays.
Students get two hours of homework each night.
Interns are expected not to miss class, which means being on campus at Paintsville every day. They are paid $400 a week to learn full-time; those who progress successfully through the first 20-week segment of the internship then qualify for an extended internship of as much as16 weeks and full-time internship pay of no less than $10 an hour.
"You can't learn if you're worried about where your daughter's next meal is coming from," Gopal said. "We can't expect successes if people are thinking like that."
Those who finish the 20-week initial internship program and the four-month extended internship will be hired as employees of Interapt.
"We kept the first cohort small so we could keep it controlled," Gopal said.
Those who don't make the grade for performance might still be in line for opportunities with other employers, he said.
"We don't want to just let people go, because that is not going to help anyone," he said.
"It's not easy," Gopal said. "It's not a government program. This is real life. You really want a job in this, you've got to do this. We believe in immersion. They need to ask questions, they need to work with peers, they need to say to someone, 'Hey, how do you do this?'"
McClellan said one student, a paramedic helping with wildfires, "was here at 8:30 in the morning, ready for class."
"People have to love coding," McClellan said. "Those who are really good at it, it's almost not like a job to them, ... and a lot of people, that's now what they want to do."
One student who really loves coding is Crystal Adkins. Her husband and their two children were regrouping at his parents' home in Pikeville after economic setbacks in Louisville when Adkins heard a radio ad about the Interapt program.
She had an associate's degree in information security and network administration from Jefferson Community and Technical College, and she was intrigued.
Now she loves coding. She drives an hour each way from her home to the Paintsville campus for the chance at a technology job.
"It's just been so hard to find some sort of tech-oriented work here," Adkins said. "I feel obligated to stay in the region to make sure these kinds of jobs stay. ... We need the jobs here, so there are other people who can benefit from this."
Adkins admits that the drive is exhausting some weeks, but she is encouraged to know that "soon I'll be able to work from home, and I'll be able to support our family financially. ... In the end, it's going to be worth it."
Alex Brashear of Harold in Floyd County, another student in the program, has a bachelor's degree in computer science from the University of Pikeville, but he wanted to be near family.
"I had a hard time finding a job," Brashear said. "The program is challenging, but at the same time it's also very rewarding. It's a lot to learn, a lot to take in in a short period of time."
Another group will probably start in 2017, Gopal said. Applications are likely to open in early 2017.

Shapes. They're all around us -- shapes compose the structure of your house, your desk at work, and even your entire human body.
Yeah, that's right: Your **entire** **human** **body**.
I'm talkin' about all of it.
That, I suppose, is the driving force behind Geometric Porn, which is almost exactly what it sounds like. Geometric Porn simulates pornography -- namely, sex organs, intercourse, and, uh, completion -- using nothing but simple geometric shapes; it's the name given to an abstract art project by London-based visual artist Luciano Foglia, who had also hoped to make Geometric Porn an interactive iPhone app.
Specifically, Apple found that Geometric Porn "present[s] excessively objectionable or crude content" and that "many audiences would find [the] app concept objectionable."
Foglia, meanwhile, finds that the only thing objectionable here is Apple's sensibilities, arguing in a statement that the Geometric Porn app "does not show any sexual or erotical image," that "it's totally pornography free," and, finally, that it is simply "a game of optical art created for the allusion of the erotic [sic]."
So, is the Geometric Porn app objectionable, or does Apple just not know art when it sees it? Here's a video of the app in action, created by Foglia and posted on his Vimeo site (CAUTION: Some might find the following content objectionable).
Geometric Porn App Preview from Luciano Foglia on Vimeo.
Apple's not shy about rejecting apps from its App Store: HuffPost favorite iScab was initially rejected for being too bloody, and several other apps have been turned down for everything from celebrity defamation, to depictions of nudity, to promoting violence.
So, you've watched the video: What do you think? Crude, rude, and socially unacceptable, or an overreaction to a playful work of art?
Check out some of the most controversial apps ever booted from the App Store.

"How does your research help baby elephants?" I thought it was a slightly strange and somewhat misplaced question to ask me. As conservation biologists, we focus on saving populations of animals and groups of species, rather than individual baby animals (though I would consider an exception for elephants – see the photos below and you'll know what I mean). But I assured my questioner that my research was very 'relephant' to helping baby elephants. Like this little guy below, who is clearly throwing a tantrum, and refusing to move:
So why could he be throwing a tantrum? Well, an elephant's life is not easy. They have to walk long distances in search of food and water, and watch out for predators and humans. That's hard enough already for a calf, but it gets worse in the summer. Imagine that you were the bony elephant calf below, chewing on tasteless dry grass and bark, and getting sunburned in the merciless March sun:
And then, far away, through the heat haze and the forest fires, the matriarch of your herd spots a nice lake in the north-west!
You would probably jump with joy, dreaming about filling your stomach with juicy green grass, frolicking in the cooling slush, and spending long hours blissfully sleeping under your mother's stomach:
Plus, for your entertainment, you can also charge any pesky researchers that are hanging around there, it would be hilarious. OK, so you wouldn't jump with joy, because elephants can't really jump, but you would surely at least smile and have a spring in your stride as you set off:
And so the whole herd eagerly gets moving to reach this promised land. There are many dangerous obstacles on the way: settlements and rubber plantations now stand in areas that were forests when your matriarch was a calf. And they are filled with people trying to make a living – who see you as a threat, and who will therefore drive you off if they see you nearby. But the herd is able to quietly sneak through the rubber plantations at night. The water is now getting closer and closer!
But then comes the most formidable obstacle of all. It is a highway, with steep embankments on both sides that are very difficult to safely cross. And, huge, noisy, smelly, steel monsters zoom by at breakneck speed every few seconds, day and night. All the herd members are nervous and agitated. You can see water just on the other side, but the matriarch decides it is much too dangerous to try to cross.
And so the herd turns back, tired, thirsty and disappointed. No wonder the calf is throwing a tantrum, I would too if I was him!
I may have made up the story above, but the situation is reality in much of India. For example, the photo below was taken at the spot where a tusker came down in February this year, to try and cross the highway (NH 208) that fragments the forest in the Shencottah Gap, my study site in Kerala. This is the first time a crossing attempt has been clearly recorded in ~20 years, as far as I know. But he couldn't cross, and turned back. He appears to have tried last year too, unsuccessfully.
Interestingly, Chanakya, writing in the Arthashastra – 2200 years ago – apparently mandated a maximum road width of 4.5 m in elephant conservation forests, as opposed to 18 m in cities (The story of Asia's elephants, Raman Sukumar). Some foresight on both counts, eh?
But what can you do about this? Stop building new highways? Clearly not. But what you can do, is mitigate them. Build the highway around rather than through the forest; or, build overpasses and underpasses so that animals – even elephants – can safely cross. The Kerala Forest Department has shown commitment to developing solutions to this problem in the Shencottah Gap. It will be a long and complex process, but I hope it works. We certainly don't want to end up in the situation below (cartoon credit Rohan Chakravarty, Green Humour)! But in the meantime, if you are taking your annual pilgrimage to Sabarimala, and driving through NH 208, spare a thought for that thirsty elephant calf!

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 60924
openssh fails to connect to or from old clients
Last modified: 2007-04-18 12:40:48 EDT
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.7) Gecko/20011226
Description of problem:
connecting to or from 1.x version of openssh fails with Disconnecting: Corrupted
check bytes on input
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
1.ssh from v1.x openssh client to new 3.1p1-1 server
2.or ssh to a v1.x server from a v3.1p1-1 server
Actual Results: (with -v).
... stuff deleted here
debug1: Encryption type: 3des
debug1: Sent encrypted session key.
debug1: Installing crc compensation attack detector.
Disconnecting: Corrupted check bytes on input.
debug1: Calling cleanup 0x8061038(0x0)
... end
Expected Results: It should have connected and authenticated further.
Additional info:
It happens with the RPM's for 7.2, 7.1, 7.0 (and my back ported 6.2) RPMs.
Need to test if this is a packaging problem, or an OpenSSH bug.
Haven't tested other non-x86 platform yet, will do when I get my
alpha booted up.
Ok. Ill take that back.. it seems to ONLY be happening in my 6.2 back port
of the Redhat SRPMS..
Damn these old 6.2 sites I have to support..
Something very strange going on here though..
Heres the 6.2 binary connecting to a 1.x server..
... stuff deleted ...

.. end ..
It seems to not be setting that key len..
Notes here.. running RH 6.2 all errata installed
and openssl-0.9.6-9 back-ported.
Any ideas?
sorry.. last examples are around the wrong way..
Ok. I think I have gotten to the bottom of this now.
It seems the openssl095a patch that is turned on when you set
the RH 6.x open in the spec file removes some code that seems
to be important for openssh 3.xx.
I removed this patch, and used openssl-0.9.6-9 (same as you have done
for RH 7.1, with the openssl095a rpm to link for older stuff)..
And that fixed it fine.
Redhat have not maintained OpenSSH for RH 6.2, as it never origionally
came with 6.2, however, there are a LOT of sites out there using 6.2
and using OpenSSH.. a 6.2-crypto channel in RHN would be REALLY nice.
Can you please give a little more detail's about what you did to fix this
problem. I did not quite understand the last comment.
I have the excact same problem as you have described.
Anders Hermansen
No problem, I've put my RPM's of openssl, and openssh (including SRPMS) here.
The openssl rpm's have an openssl095a rpm this is required to keep
the dependancies of existing SSL applications.
You will need to use --upgrade on them as one..
Ie/ rpm --upgrade openssl-0.9.6-9.i386.rpm openssl095a-0.9.5a-9.i386.rpm
This is to satisfy the dependancy tree.
Please grab the SRPMS and compile them yourself if you have the time/knowhow.
As for what I did.. I back ported openssl-0.9.6-9 and openssl095a-0.9.5a from
the RH 7.1 errata. Then in the spec file of openssh-3.1p1-1, I commented out
patch 9 titled "openssl095a", and rebuilt.
That did the trick! Thanks!
Thank you! I have to support a lot of RHs 6.2 on Sparc platform (there is no
official RH >6.2 for this platform). See my bug 61146. I'll try your patches
ASAP. However, there is newer openssh-3.1p1-2 on RawHide.
P.S. The "standart way" to mark back-ported SRPMS to specific RH version is to
give them extension: like openssh-3.1p1-2.6.2.src.rpm or openssh-3.1p1-
2.6.x.src.rpm . Try http://www.rpmfind.net/

Will aloe vera help acne? the question asked by people who doubt about aloe vera benefits for acne. How can aloe vera cure acne? see the answer below.
Aloe Vera is a miracle plant. This plant has so many benefits for human life. We can use aloe vera for hair treatment. Because aloe vera gel will nourish the hair and it will grow thick and healthy.
Beside of benefits for hair and another beauty things, aloe vera will help acne problem. But in some sources said that aloe vera can't cure acne completely, but it can reduce acne problems such as redness skin, swelling on acne, and inflammation caused by acne.
How Does Aloe Vera Help Acne
Polysaccharides & Gibberellin
Those substrates have vital function of aloe vera for acne. They can kill the bacteria that cause acne growth. It can also prevent acne to become worse.
Magnesium Lactate
This substrate can reduce itchiness that caused by acne. It may help you to keep away your hand from scratching acne.
Astringent can clean your face skin from skin pores cloggers. It will remove dirt and excess oil from face. Those things cause acne to grow easily. Applying aloe vera gel as face mask may helpful.
This substance can help skin to regenerate new cells. After the dead skin cells removed, your skin will do regenerations to get a new fresh skin. 3 Ways How Does Aloe Vera Help Acne
Questions :
Does aloe vera help acne scars and how long?
Aloe Vera gel contains some substrates such as a sterol, salicylic acid, aloe man, acemannan, and glycoprotein fraction which have some medical functions, one of them is anti-inflammation. (http://farmako.fk.uns.ac.id/index.php?p=frepo&abstract=7).
It's mean that the gel can cure swelling and scars. But won't cured completely.
We don't know exactly how long the scars will be helped and removed, but you can apply the gel frequently to get the best result try twice a day.
See people experience about aloe vera for acne.
How to use aloe vera for acne scars?
The answer is simple. The first step, clean the scars using water and anti-bacterial soap or you can use alcohol. Then, dry the scars.
Take the gel from fresh aloe vera leaf, apply it onto the scars. Leave it for 30 minutes and rinse with clean water.
We recommend using face scrub which can clean dead skin cells beside using aloe vera gel. The product will help you to remove the scars.
Acne can be removed using beauty product or natural ingredients like Aloe Vera, but the best way is to prevent acne growth.
To do this, keep your face from pollution and dirt. Keep the face to always clean. Use face wash twice a day after working and at home. It may help you to prevent acne growth.
So will aloe vera help acne? yes, it will cure acne but not completely cured. As said above, it only helps to treat swelling, inflammation and redness caused by acne. To remove acne completely, use acne remover product instead of aloe vera gel.

A HEREFORD business owner says his faith in police is now 'non-existent' after claiming officers said there was not enough evidence to investigate the theft of tools from his van.
Dale Morgan, who runs plumbing and heating firm Morgan and Cuss Ltd alongside colleague Jamie Cuss, discovered thieves had struck overnight last week.
But when he informed police that all the work vehicle's drills and electrical equipment had been stolen, he says he was told there was little that could be done.
He said: "I first became aware at roughly 8am on the Thursday morning when I got into the van to go to work. The side door was slightly open and when I looked inside I noticed all of our drills and electrical equipment had been taken.
"As you can imagine, going to work that day with a customer expecting you to carry out the work that's been arranged for weeks in advance and telling them that we had to delay it until we got more kit was a massive inconvenience to us all. Especially as we are a new small company."
Despite obtaining his own CCTV footage, which is dark but does show a number of hooded individuals beside the van, he says he was told officers would not visit him because no damage had been caused to the van itself.
He said: "They told me to list down what had been taken and they would let me know if it turned up in the future.
"When I rang them later on to find out if there had been any progress and if they could do anything, the officer said 'well what do you want me to do about it? there's no evidence'.
"It really did seem pointless ringing them, and felt like I was just an inconvenience to them.
"Even when I explained other vehicles in the area had been done recently and also Bartonsham Dairy's last week he still didn't seem to care.
"It concerns me that these people will strike again, knowing that the police won't act. And my faith in the police is now non-existent."
In a statement, West Mercia Police confirmed they had received a report of a theft from a van in Vicarage Road in St James, Hereford.
"A quantity of power tools are understood to have been removed from the vehicle sometime between 5pm on Tuesday (October 31) and 8am the following morning," the statement said.
"Officers have conducted an investigation but there is insufficient evidence to proceed at this stage.
"If further evidence comes to light, the incident will be re-opened and investigated."
Anyone with information should call police on 101, with incident number 96S of November 1.

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 114987
Very poor task switching on average load
Last modified: 2007-04-18 13:02:33 EDT
Description of problem:
We have a set of multithreaded processes running on Redhat 9 machines.
When there is some load, it seems that only a few threads inside
certain processes get to be executed in a fair way. Certain threads,
in particular watchdog threads, that sleep most of the time, timeout
the entire system.
This problem does not occur on a stock 2.4.x kernel, we tried the
latest development 2.4 kernel, and couldn't reproduce the problem.
I tested this problem on a variety of systems, one is an athlon single
processor, and pentium 3 single and dual processor.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.4.20-27.9 or any 2.6.1 through 2.6.2 kernels
How reproducible:
Very easily using the test program combined with the watchdog script.
Steps to Reproduce:
0. Compile cputest with gcc -pthread -D_REENTRANT -lm cputest.c -o cputest
1. Start the watchdog script in a shell
2. Start the test program: ./cputest 20 10000 1000 512
3. Watch the output of the watchdog script
Actual results:
An output that looks like
>>>>>>> delta = 3 Tue Jan 27 15:31:22 PST 2004
>>>>>>> delta = 4 Tue Jan 27 15:31:27 PST 2004
>>>>>>> delta = 4 Tue Jan 27 15:31:34 PST 2004
>>>>>>> delta = 6 Tue Jan 27 15:31:54 PST 2004
>>>>>>> delta = 6 Tue Jan 27 15:32:04 PST 2004
>>>>>>> delta = 20 Tue Jan 27 15:32:13 PST 2004
meaning, in that case, that I got a 20 seconds "freeze" of the
watchdog script that ended at 15:32:13
Expected results:
There should be no freezes like this, regardless of the load, as the
watchdog script needs a very minimal number of cycles to execute every

My Completely Unneccessary, Silly Letter to Jon Stewart: What's a Girl So Upset About?*
I know this letter is long and that's now how you're supposed to do protest letters, but I'm long-winded, people.
Jon Stewart,
Your bit with the fat suit on Monday's show (September 14th,
2009) was distasteful, less than amusing, lazy, and sorely problematic. I know
what you were trying to do. People called you all lazy for taking three weeks
off; and since fatness is the ultimate symbol of being lazy, you got in a fat
suit. And since Jon Oliver had joked on his radio show about eating two whole
cheese steaks (or so I hear), you threw that in. Since you have a playful
relationship with Brian Williams, you took the opportunity to incorporate him.
I get that you were taunting your naysayers.
I also get that for you it (likely) wasn't about fat people
at all—but that's part of the problem because it was on our backs. I know it seems initially an outlandish notion, but
you being in a fat suit and TDS using stereotypes and images of fat people the
way you did affects my every day life. I'm not saying you hate fat people or
that you are responsible for all of the derision and discrimination fat people
face—certainly not. But you are responsible for what you do, the messages you
spread, and your complicity, especially when so many people regard you as
someone well-reasoned, critically-minded, and progressive, someone who engages
in smart, sharp (if silly) comedy. Hang with me a second.
See, I am a fat person, and every day I deal with people
judging me as just some lazy fatass who doesn't deserve a god-damn thing (aside
from a good fat-shaming, for my own good).
Fat discrimination, according to a recent study[1],
is as prevalent as race and gender discrimination in this country. I'm not just
talking about how people judge me on the street or how there is no room for
bodies like mine on TV. Fat discrimination and weight bias are prevalent in
health care, education, and employment. It affects real living, breathing
people. For instance, it affects the quality and thoroughness of care we
receive from medical professionals, and we suffer and some of us die because of
But what does this have to do with you in a fat suit? Fat suits have
been compared to blackface. Now, that's not a historically equivalent
comparison in any way, but the the function is similar. You can put
on a fat suit and laugh with everyone else at the fat representation of you and
how gross and disgusting and wrong it is. TDS can further dehumanize fat
people by using a picture of a (faceless) bed-ridden fat person with Williams
face Photoshopped on—participating in what Charlotte Cooper calls the parade of
headless fatties—to drive home how disgusting it is to be fat. [3] And
in the process you and TDS can metaphorically masturbate stereotypes that perpetuate
the bias and discrimination we face in our every day lives—all for your joke
that really isn't about fat people, which just means you have no regard for us
in the process. And then you can take
that suit off and you don't have to deal with the consequences.
Your promotion of fat stereotypes and dehumanization of fat people is part of a greater system of bias, discrimination, and dehumanization which directly affects my quality of life. It helps give people the idea that it's perfectly okay not to have any regard for us. After all, if we didn't like it, and if we had any dignity, we'd just put down the sandwich, right? If you had any sense, you might not assume fat people give up their dignity by virtue of being fat. For more a more
nuanced critique of "Fat on Film" you can visit the recent Newsweek slideshow of the same name: http://www.newsweek.com/id/213419.
This is why I'm disappointed in you and the TDS writers. I
expect better. And frankly, the best way to show your audience you haven't
gotten lazy isn't by telling lazy
There are three things you can do to help fat people and
our work toward social justice. First, educate yourself on this issue. Do not
take what you think you know about fat people for granted. Put some critical
thinking into it and be willing to challenge your own assumptions. Second,
bring critical fat studies scholars or fat activists onto your show. Open a
conversation. Linda Bacon (yes, bacon, haha) is a preeminent scholar of Health
at Every Size, who has found that fat people who don't diet and don't lose weight can be healthier than
ones who do.[4] She has
just published a book on the subject. Kate Harding and Marianne Kirby also have
a book out called "Lessons from the Fat-o-Sphere." Recently, scholars in the UK
have published a book called "Fat Studies in the UK" and soon the long-awaited
"Fat Studies Reader" will be out. Finally, we don't care if you make fat jokes,
just make them funny. Make sure that you aren't merely reinscribing harmful
stereotypes, and make sure they are the same critical quality as the rest of
your bits.

[3] For the record, I know
TDS uses Photoshop to do much more 'horrible' things to people's images—but
there is a particular history of fat people's faceless bodies being debased and
dehumanized in the media, as your colleague, Colbert, has even pointed out.

*Apparently being upset about something so trivial is just silly. And after all "The joke was funny--I'm a fat person and I thought so." And "It wasn't about fat people. C'mon, they make fun of EVERYBODY on that show." "Being angry about it isn't going to solve anything." "You shouldn't let words upset you so much--we should be showing people that words can't hurt us." And, of course, "Don't we [fat people] have bigger fish to fry?"
(These are paraphrases of claims made to me from people who identify as fat-positive, size-accepting, fat-accepting individuals. Claims that I hope to have arbitrated in this here letter.)
Edited to note: I know the racial comparisons I make are problematic. I hate to rely on comparisons to racial discrimination and bias to highlight fat discrimination and bias. I am open to finding new ways to make our cause seem serious and our claims seem legitimate without using analogies to other oppressions. I try not to. But in some cases, I just haven't quite figured out how to really put things in perspective for people without using comparisons. Even if I know it is problematic.

Amazing! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Well communicated!
Thanks for not lowering yourself to unnecessary backbiting or name calling. Thanks for being logical and considerate of the opposing side . . . it does wonders for getting people to actually listen. And mostly just thank you for recognizing the issue and putting yourself out there!
As for the comparison to racial discrimination, I agree. It's hard to equalize discrimination issues, but I also feel that perspectives of weight bias can be drawn from issues of racial prejudice in that both instances of discrimination result from nothing more than physical appearance. That someone can be stereotyped and disliked or even dismissed from across a room can be understood by both groups. Still, I'll keep my eyes out for other comparisons.
Thanks again.

A very well thought out and
A very well thought out and logical letter. I too am tired of being marginalized by the media and hope that someday fat people will be portrayed in the media as lovable, smart, and everyday human beings. I am tired of the fat stereotype of fat being being lazy, love hungry etc. I hope that someday fat people will be seen as sexy and not be shamed or ridiculed because we have a few extra pounds or flabbiness everywhere. I would love to see more people who look like me, period. I'm tired of the media glorifying stick thin figures and ostracizing (especially woman who are seen as nothing more than sex objects in the media) fat people in general.
It's like Tyra Banks once said on her show : "Fatness is the last acceptable form of discrimination."
September 23rd, 2009 | Link |
I like the letter, I think
I like the letter, I think you made your case well. I think that when it comes to humor shows, it's kind of a losing proposition because they may see it as the ability to poke fun at yourself. But I do feel the same way, that it's a lot different when you put on a fat suit with this idea of becoming something you aren't. I think the problem with fat discrimination is that everyone believes they own the problem of being fat, so they are less willing to consider they have thin privilege and benefit from it. Plus people are always flipping it around and crying reverse discrimination, because I think people don't want to see themselves as the oppressors, they want to be the oppressed, as long as they don't *actually* have to suffer from oppression--but someone's bad opinion of them is enough for them to feel like they are in the right with what they are doing. I think your letter did a good job of revealing that there is true discrimination against the fat population.
I don't believe that fat prejudice is the last acceptable form of discrimination, because I think we still actively discriminate against certain groups with no real understanding of or care about what we are doing. We may not even realize how we are still supporting racism, classism or other kinds of discrimination. And, also, of course, it depends on the setting. Some forms of prejudice are much more accepted in some circles although maybe not as society as a whole. And the fact that many states feel the need to vote against gay marriage and believe their right to discriminate against gay people is sacrosanct, shows that there is acceptable discrimination out there. I do think that actively discriminating against and shaming fat people is actually seen as morally good in a significant percentage of the population. Of course, I'm biased, but when most mainstream health and governmental entities push the automatic assumption that BMI is valid, significant weight loss is possible and results in healthier people, a fat person's right to exist is called into question. Some of us feel that acutely.

"I know the racial comparisons I make are problematic. I hate to rely on comparisons to racial discrimination and bias to highlight fat discrimination and bias. I am open to finding new ways to make our cause seem serious and our claims seem legitimate without using analogies to other oppressions. "
What about comparing the treatment and popular views of fat people to how the "untouchables" are treated in India. I said in another post that I feel like I'm one of this society's untouchables.
"I don't believe that fat prejudice is the last acceptable form of discrimination, because I think we still actively discriminate against certain groups with no real understanding of or care about what we are doing. We may not even realize how we are still supporting racism, classism or other kinds of discrimination ...

Of course, I'm biased, but when most mainstream health and governmental entities push the automatic assumption that BMI is valid, significant weight loss is possible and results in healthier people, a fat person's right to exist is called into question. Some of us feel that acutely."
I agree with all of what you said. I think one of the big problems with fat discrimination is, as you say, many people think it is a morally good thing to do (recently in New Zealand a professor of nutrition announced on a current affairs TV show that we're all too nice to fat people, we should stop being nice to them). Another really big problem with in is, in my opinion, the vast majority of people don't think it exists at all (or they don't want to believe it exists). I've been ridiculed about my weight since I was 7, and ever since I was 7 I've been continually told the usual; just ignore it, just don't let it bother you, they're just being silly, it's unimportant, insignificant, making a fuss about nothing, just think positive thoughts about yourself, you're just too sensitive. Even other fat women I've talked to dismiss the nasty remarks with these sorts of comments. As for the callous way fat people, especially fat women, are treated in the media, the vast majority of people accept it as normal, ok, even as an acceptable group of people to have a laugh at. That's a prime example of not acknowleging the existance of distrimination. The example above of the professor of nutrition announcing we're all too nice to fat people is another example of not recognising the existance of fat discrimination.
Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who even recognises the existance of the nasty way fat people are treated. I see and hear the way fat people are treated and spoken about in the media and no one around me remarks on it, or even seems to notice that it exists. It's like treating fat people like that is a given, as in, how else would you treat fat people. That it's been getting worse with the prevalence of the obesity epidemic hysteria alarms me.
Hasta la vista, baby!

You? Awesome.
I really admire your ability (and patience!) to lay out the arguments in a clear, concise way, and to connect them to the reality of lived experience without being either condescending or condemning. I wish I had the head and the stomach for that kind of engagement, I think it's so valuable.
September 24th, 2009 | Link |
Great letter and I agree with you...
...but don't apologize for the racial comparison. That comparing weight issues to race issues is not appropriate has somehow become dogma of the FA movement. That's just silly.
What started out as an appropriate criticism, that fat is not the last acceptable prejudice, has become something insane. There are billions of people who understand the struggle against racism. And hundreds of millions at least who understand the struggle against homophobia. To not make comparisons to those struggles and the rational behind those struggles is ultimately to be fighting a war and deciding to leave the bazooka at home.
People don't want to understand frameworks. They don't want to start at the beginning. They are intellectually lazy. Comparisons allow for understanding the with the minimum possible effort.
September 29th, 2009 | Link |
omnifrog, I wasn't
omnifrog, I wasn't apologizing about it per se, I was qualifying it, making my awareness overt, and inviting conversation about other ways we can make our struggle real and human to people because I am not there yet. I think we need to strike a balance between reaching the, in your words, intellectually lazy masses and being lazy or simplistic in our dialogue. If we know that people are intellectually lazy, we know that making statements that compare oppressions or even ones like mine that rely on the awareness of the gravity of some oppressions to bring our own to light WILL likely get translated into things we never intended. It's exactly because of the laypublic that I think we need to be so careful. This is the reason I qualify my statement about blackface because racism and sizism are NOT historically equivalent. I expect a layperson--likely someone who doesn't know anything about blackface and it's part in our racial history--might not otherwise get that, no, fat suits are not the SAME thing. I teach undergrads and they are largely unaware of historical contexts of any kind unless they are wholly superficial. And when there's that one-dimensional understanding going on, things get lost in translation.

You're not the first to
You're not the first to equate fat haters with racists. As this theater review points out, John Waters did it in 1988. But then it was irony.
Of course, today anti-fat bias can be a form of racism, too, because as a group, African Americans generally tend to be heavier than whites.

Information About San Jose, CA
With the Bay Area to the north, the Pacific Ocean to the west, and the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the east, renting an RV in San Jose, California, lets you make the most of your vacation. San Jose was California's first settlement and its original capitol and is the current largest city in Northern California. The city is full of quirks: check out the largest skate park in California at Alum Rock, visit the most interesting haunted house in the world, and or play on a life-sized monopoly board in a downtown park. It's easy to get a tan from the California sunshine by visiting one (or several!) of the beaches, state parks, or national parks around the area. Search for an RV in San Jose, CA, and extend your trip to visit the majestic Redwoods, awe-inspiring Half Dome, or relaxing wine country.
The Great Outdoors
San Jose is in the Bay Area, right off the coast. Rent an RV by owner in San Jose and drive along the famous Highway 1 to find the perfect beach and take in the view of the rocky cliffs and impossibly blue ocean waves. Head southwest to visit Shark Fin Cove in Davenport, and camp overnight in the breathtaking Big Basin Redwoods State Park. If you can't get enough of the beaches and redwoods, continue south to Pfeiffer Big Sur Campground, which is a 15-minute drive to Pfeiffer Beach, and stay there a few days. Pinnacles National Park is in that area, formed 23 million years ago by a volcanic explosion which left behind looming spires of rock and talus caves. Novice and advanced climbers will find routes to both challenge and inspire them, and hikers can find everything from quick and easy trails to longer hikes that wind from the grasslands to the caves.
There are numerous state parks closer to the city, including Alum Rock Park with its mineral springs and native wildlife (lucky hikers might get to see mountain lions or bobcats – but please, respect their space and keep your distance). Head north towards San Francisco to visit McNee Ranch State Park, known for its hilly hikes and ocean views. On the opposite side of the Bay is Rock City Park, with holey rock faces and stunning panoramic views. Adventure seekers will want to trek east in their San Jose RV rental and drive to Yosemite National Park. You'll find granite mountains, glassy lakes, waterfalls, forests, and the iconic Half Dome. You can see the sights from your luxury San Jose RV rental on the Yosemite auto-touring routes, or plan a picnic and kick back to take it all in.
RV Parks
Most of the state and national parks around the area have campgrounds where you can stay in your San Jose camper rental. You can fall asleep to the sound of crashing waves at the Half Moon Bay State Beach campgrounds, which allow trailers and campers up to 40 feet long. There are also several beach campsites along Monterey Bay, including the Santa Cruz/ Monterey Bay KOA Holiday, Seacliff Center RV Park, or Sunset State Beach campground. Nothing beats winding down from a day full of exploration like relaxing in the sand watching the sun set over the Pacific.
There are several options for RVers to stay closer to the city as well. Camp out in your RV rental in San Jose, California, at Coyote Valley RV Resort in one of their deluxe sites with electric, free WiFi and satellite TV, and recycling and trash pickup at your site. You can also take advantage of the pool, putting green, and laundry and fitness centers. Morgan Hill RV Resort has tons of activities on site, including mini golf, volleyball, a tennis court, a pool, and a dog park, and they are surrounded by vineyards. Nearby Uvas Pines RV Park is nestled in scenic wooded foothills, with spacious RV sites, trails, and open land. Campers will also enjoy Santa Cruz Ranch RV Resort which is pet-friendly and backs up to nature trails.
To get around in San Jose, you can park your RV rental at the Walmart on Story Rd and hop right on to the VTA bus system to get wherever you need to go in San Jose. They have light rails and community buses that make transportation around the city quite easy. You can even avoid traffic by taking the Caltrain up to San Francisco for the day.
Explore the City
San Jose has tons to see and do for every age. The Tech Museum of Innovation is a must-see, as you are in the "Capitol of Silicon Valley". Their exhibits showcase the incredible ways technology shapes our lives. There are great art and history museums in the area, most notably the San Jose Museum of art and the Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum, which has the largest collection of Egyptian artifacts in western North America. The Children's Discovery Museum is perfect for families with playful children, and families with older kids won't want to miss out on visiting the Winchester Mystery House (you can park your RV in the lot across the street). The owner was instructed that she could not stop building or else thousands of spirits would haunt her, so the mansion has 160 rooms, 47 fireplaces, 3 elevators, 10,000 panes of glass, and some pretty spooky stories!
San Jose also has a ton of great options for restaurants and breweries, and the San Pedro Square Market is a hub for both food and live outdoor entertainment. The city has a vibrant arts scene and every summer hosts a weekend of open studios where the public can see works from hundreds of artists. When exploring, be sure to head out to Japantown; the iconic area has traditional shops, vibrant celebrations, and of course, incredible cuisine. Historic neighborhoods in San Jose include the Rose Garden and Willow Glen, where you can shop at boutiques and dine at open-air restaurants.

The Lithonia High Lumen LED Flood Size 2 (HLF2) is capable of replacing 1000W metal halide luminaires while delivering exceptional energy savings. Its long service life of over 100,000 hours, or 20+ years of nighttime use, makes it ideal for high mounting applications, virtually eliminating expensive lamp changes.
The instant-on feature eliminates the long strike and re-strike times associated with HID floods. Available in both yoke and slip fitter mounts, the HLF2 is easy to install on existing poles and brackets.
The High Lumen LED Flood's die-cast aluminum housing has integral heat sink fins to optimize thermal management through conductive and convective cooling. The LED drivers are mounted in direct contact with the casting to promote low operating temperature and long life. Housing is completely sealed against moisture and environment contaminants (IP66). Low EPA 5.7 ft2 (0.52m2) for optimized wind loading.
Exterior parts are protected by a zinc-infused Super Durable TGIC thermoset powder coat finish that provides superior resistance to corrosion and weathering. A tightly controlled multi-stage process ensures a minimum 3 mils thickness for a finish that can withstand extreme climate changes without cracking or peeling.
A variety of precision-molded vacuum-metalized specular reflectors are engineered for superior field-to-beam ratios, uniformity, and spacing. Light engines are available in 3000K (70 CRI min.), 4000K (70 CRI min.) and 5000K (70 CRI min.) configurations. Optional visors offer additional versatility.
Light engines consist of chip-on-board (COB) LEDs directly coupled to the housing to maximize heat dissipation and promote long life (100,000 hrs at 25°C, L83). Class 1 electronic driver has a power factor >90%, THD <20%, and has an expected life of 100,000 hours with <1% failure rate. 10kV surge protection meets a minimum Category C low operation per ANSI/IEEE C62.41.2.
