The Italian called me to advise "we'a goin'a far'a, dress up, yea..".
So, first date and all, dress up I did. I had spent the last fifteen months in a bikini and flip flops so the opportunity to dress up was fantastic. I had a few days to plan my outfit: jeans, casual white top, black blazer, nude nails, minimal make up (I had a really good tan so didn't overdo the face) and frostings of jewels.
The shoes were a slight issue. I only owned flip flops so I had to borrow a pair of very nice black heels from a friend. The problem was that they were a size too big and anyone who knows me, knows that I can't walk in heels! I'm like Miss Piggy on crutches! But I had no choice so out I went wearing the borrowed stilettos.
The Italian picked me up promptly at 6pm. Rather early for a first date I thought but he sold it to me by saying we were going to a lovely place and had to be there on time. I was wooed.
The wooing didn't last for long when at he bottom of the drive way was a scooter and perfectly perched on the seat were two helmuts. "We're going on that?" I said in a 'please say no' tone'.
"Well yea, we'a an'a goin'a far". I reluctantly slid the helmut over my perfectly straightened hair, rubbing the blusher off my cheeks in the process, and shut the clamp firmly under my chin.
As we sped off sounding like a hair dryer on speed, the Italian slapped me on the leg and winked at me through his visor via the wing mirror. I was not impressed!
After about a ten minute ride, I noticed we were heading towards the M4. Are you kidding me?? we're going on to the sodding motorway, on a scooter?? Is that even legal??
I was freezing! It was July but in England that means nothing. I was on a scooter, on a motorway, in stilettos and wearing a t-shirt! As first dates go, this wasn't starting out well at all.
On my travels, I had picked up an amazing necklace at a jewelry market on the outskirts of Bangkok. Naturally a first date was the perfect time to showcase it. Wrong! As it was blowing for e gail wind on the back if the scooter, the stupid necklace had gotten entangled in the helmet strap under my chin. I was freezing AND choking!!
Whilst holding on to the side if the scooter with one hand, I tried to unravel the necklace with the other. My toes were rooted to the scooter step to try and keep myself from falling off. I was effing this and effing that under my helmut and wondering why I had even agreed to go in thus date. I was probably right anyway, he was gay!
Finally, after just over an hour we arrived in Windsor. I got off that scooter like John Wayne, my legs were permanently set to straddle mode, my head had been almost decapitated by my not-so-lovely-anymore-necklace and I hadn't felt my feet for that half hour!
I composed myself and slid off the helmet to reveal a nest of matted nots that even a pigeon would have requested to be rehoused! I looked a state!
The Italian escorted me and my birds nest into Browns restaurant in Windsor where I immediately made a run for the toilets. Where, I ashamedly borrowed a strangers hairbrush to sort out my locks.
Luckily the meal was nice, the company was, well, different, and the journey home which I was dreading was mildly better as I dressed up in the winter wets that we're hidden in the scooter seat! Seriously, if there had been any windows on that scooter, any street cred I had would have well and truly gone out of it!
"You'a weren't'a cold'a eh?" he asked. When my teeth had stopped chattering I told him bluntly "had have I known I would be on a scooter going 70mes an hour down the motorway, I would have dressed appropriately, so yes, I was/am freezing!".
"But'a i'a told you'a to dress'a up!"
"I did!! Ive got jewelry on and everything!!"
"Yeah but'a in Italy when'a we say'a 'dress'a up, we'a mean'a dress'a Up a'warm'a"
Oh well, we were not in Italy, we were in England and dress up to me means "wear something' pretty Darlin'", not get out your long johns and warmest balaclava!
And that amici, has been the basis of our relationship so far – lost in translation and reading between the lines – and mostly getting it wrong!

The Boss is not impressed! Springsteen hits out at Trump calling his campaign promises a 'con job' saying 'he's done a lot of damage'
- In conversation with David Remnick at The New Yorker Festival, the rock 'n' roll icon opened up about Trump
- 'I predict he will not win. But I do believe he's done a lot of damage already,' Springteen said
- The artist sang at the 2008 inauguration of President Obama, whom he still continues to support
The boss has spoken - and he's not impressed.
Bruce Springsteen says he doesn't believe Donald Trump is fit for office.
'When he was just a sorta big, bloviating New York billionaire, he could be kinda funny,' said Bruce Springsteen during his appearance at The New Yorker Festival.
'He's not funny as a presidential candidate ... I predict he will not win. But I do believe he's done a lot of damage already. I don't believe he's going to go gently into the night. It's a very dangerous thing,' he said.
Singer Bruce Springsteen predicts that Trump will not win but had a grim analysis of the consequences of Trump's candidacy saying 'I do believe he's done a lot of damage already'
'I think the subversion of the idea of democratic elections is a very dangerous idea. When you start telling people, unless you win, the election will be illegitimate, and when you have as many people listening to him as he does, it's a very, very dangerous genie to let out of the bottle, and not one that goes back in particularly easily. So I'm a little afraid of his lasting effect on the country.'
The Daily News reported that 67-year-old Springsteen showed his displeasure during a Q&A at a Broadway theater.
He called Trump's appeal 'a con job' based on campaign promises to build a wall along the Mexico border and bring back jobs to the U.S.A.
'You want to hear these kind of solutions to your problems,' said the liberal singer-songwriter. 'Unfortunately, they're fallacious.'
Speaking out: In conversation with David Remnick, right, at The New Yorker Festival, the rock 'n' roll icon opened up about Trump and his storied career
Springsteen said that he was still a huge fan of President Obama, who even used a number of his songs on the campaign trail in 2008 and 2012.
'I'm still a fan,' said Springsteen. 'I believe he's been a good President.'
The legendary rock star spoke to a sold-out crowd in during a one-hour, 20-minute on-stage interview as part of a nationwide tour for his best-selling new autobiography Born To Run.
'The Boss' has a storyteller's knack for recounting the past in vivid detail, with quick wit and humor.
He discussed the labored process of writing the book, which took seven years, his troubled relationship with his father, sweet memories of raising his children with wife and longtime backup singer, Patti Scialfa, and his history with depression, as he does in the book.
Not a fan: The Boss prominently supported Barack Obama in both of his presidential campaigns and recently called Donald Trump, pictured, a 'moron'
'I think music was the way that I medicated myself in the beginning. It was the first thing that centered me and chased away the blues,' Springsteen said, seated in an armchair beside his interviewer on stage at the historic Nourse Theater.
'I found that the experience of playing cleared my mind and gave me a brief moment of respite from the things that tended to disturb me,' he said. 'I found out that exhaustion was my friend. Because if I got myself tired enough, I was simply too tired to be depressed.'
The book Born to Run came out in late September and has risen to the top of best-seller lists.
But Springsteen doubts he's got a sequel in him: 'I think this is my swan song. I can't imagine writing another one.'

Following the firing of James Gunn from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, Drax star Dave Bautista has been vocal in his support for the director, suggesting he may have to leave the franchise, but will his contract even allow that?
It has been a mere two and a half weeks since James Gunn was fired from directing Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 by The Walt Disney Company over offensive jokes he made on Twitter between 2008 and 2012. Gunn had previously apologized for his tweets, but Disney still severed ties with the director. The decision led to an immediate backlash from various sources, from fans and journalists to industry figures like director Fede Alvarez, comedian Patton Oswalt, and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 star Kurt Russell. As of the writing of this piece, a Change.org petition in support of reinstating Gunn as director has over 371,000 signatures.
Related: Why James Gunn Was Fired From Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3
On July 30th, the cast of Guardians of the Galaxy released a joint statement expressing support for Gunn. Their support has been muted but still notable given the might of Disney and the contracts that still bind them to the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the 3rd Guardians film. Yet the most vocal in his support for Gunn has been Drax actor Dave Bautista.
- This Page: Dave Bautista Wants Out
- Page 2: Can Dave Bautista's Really Leave Guardians?
Dave Bautista Wants Out Of Guardians If Gunn Isn't Rehired
Bautista has been candid and unequivocal on this topic, condemning Disney for their decision and sharing articles on the issue that side with Gunn. This week, he took a step further, tweeting about his hesitation over joining the 3rd Guardians film. He said, after being asked by a fan how he would respond to Disney if Gunn was not reinstated as director,
"I will do what I'm legally obligated to do but @Guardians without @JamesGunn is not what I signed up for. GOTG w/o @JamesGunn just isn't GOTG. Its also pretty nauseating to work for someone who'd empower a smear campaign by fascists #cybernazis . That's just how I feel."
Typically, celebrity statements on issues like this are more neutral, less forceful and typically not tweeted out. For Bautista to resolutely take a stance on this issue, one that he knows won't make him popular with his very powerful employer, is striking. The question now is whether Bautista will - or even can - quit playing Drax.
Dave Bautista's Guardians of the Galaxy Contract Explained
The typical Marvel contract for actors is a long-haul commitment. Samuel L. Jackson famously signed on for nine films as Nick Fury, which seemed like an impossible amount of work over a decade ago when the MCU was but a pipe-dream. Sebastian Stan also signed on for nine films as Bucky Barnes. Mark Ruffalo was open in discussing the six-movie deal he signed for the role of Bruce Banner. Now that the MCU is over twenty films deep and Thanos's universal finger snap leaves the door open for certain actors to walk away, many have questioned who will stay in the franchise and who will leave once their obligations are fulfilled.
Related: What Happens To Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 Without James Gunn?
Unlike many of his co-stars, Bautista has never specified the length of his Marvel contract. However, fellow Guardians of the Galaxy Chris Pratt did reveal his contract included the main trilogy and two other films - Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers 4 - with the possibility of extension. It's fair to assume that there's a similar situation for Bautista, with Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 his current final obligation. Of course, prior to his firing Gunn had been on board at Marvel as a creative adviser to their planned cosmic universe, which would see the franchise expand beyond Earth to include adventures like Captain Marvel, so there would be no shortage of places for Drax to show up should he renegotiate.
This would make Guardians 3 currently Drax's final film, one he is expected to complete. Of course, it does not seem as though Bautista wants to do what his contract demands.

Take a Look Inside the Sleek & Minimalist Inbox Capsule Hotel
We've all slummed it in cramped and dingy hostels at some point in our lives – usually on a stag do – but if there's one thing the Inbox Capsule Hotel proves, it's that small doesn't need to be drab. Drawing inspiration from the Japanese concept, this St Petersburg-located abode is an introvert-friendly way to get the hostel experience.
The Inbox Capsule Hotel in St Petersburg does exactly what it says on the tin. Guests can stay in capsule rooms which are stacked on top of each other to essentially get in as many guests as possible. Communal spaces are open and bathrooms are also shared among the hostel's inhabitants. But unlike most shared dorms, the Inbox makes up for it in style.
There are three ways to stay at the Inbox, with its most economical option being the SmartBox. The dorm-style rooms offer 6 to 16 plywood-lined pods that come with individually controlled ventilation and A/C, a personal locker, and a roller shade to give you some privacy from other guests.
But if you want a little more seclusion, the MonoBox is compact two-level single room which comes with your very own WC. There's no window and no shower, but the room is equipped with LED TV and the beds are a little bigger. The DoubleBox, however, is the swankiest option and comes with an en-suite bathroom and queen size bed. Whatever room you choose, you'll still be met with the same sleek, minimalist aesthetic.
Located in the heart of St Petersburg, within walking distance of the Church on Spilled Blood and Chernyshevskaya Metro Station, prices at the Inbox Capsule Hotel start at only 599₽ with breakfast included. If you don't know your Ruble, that's the equivalent of just £7. So, it's cheap. Find out more at the Inbox Hotel Website.
On a similar theme, earlier this year we featured a stunning capsule hotel in Tokyo called ℃ or 'Do-C'. The project was completed by Schemata Architects who renovated a former eight storey Shibuya hotel, pairing old sleeping cabins with a suite of timber-lined saunas.

The PS3 and PS Vita FINALLY get the first batch of their PS+ titles for the month.
Although some really cool games were announced for the PS3 and PS Vita as part of the PS+ service for this month, more than halfway into November, none of those were actually made available (although the PS4 titles went up right as the console launched). For those of you who have been getting antsy waiting for your free PS3 and Vita games, never fear! You get the first batch tomorrow.
For PlayStation 3 owners, you're getting Sega's excellent, excellent, yet sadly underrated Binary Domain; this game deserves a hell of a lot more love than it gets right now, so be sure to give it a spin now that you can get it for free. PS Vita owners get Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath, an action adventure game that sees you play the role of a bounty hunter. No, Soul Sacrifice still has not gone up yet.

Vincent A. Dauro Stands by his P-47 Thunderbolt
The P-47 Thunderbolt ran contrary to all precepts of fighter design. It was the biggest and heaviest aircraft to be powered by a single piston engine and, at that time, it was also the most expensive. However, calling the P-47 Thunderbolt successful would be an understatement: it became the most prolific of all U.S. fighters, with 12,600 of the "D" variant alone being built. What was this plane's secret to success?

The modern world is getting louder. That's no secret. Especially in the big cities, where many people live together in a dense space, there are always conflicts. With the right soundproofing, noise-prone residents can at least partially protect themselves effectively.
Quiet living with the right soundproofing
Young party culture meets sleeping needs of local residents
For the residents of certain squares in large cities, balmy summer nights are no fun, but rather a catastrophe: Then the young party people meet late into the night outdoors and does not care about the sleeping needs of the working population and the children. In Cologne, the courts had several times with the states on Brussels Square employed and condemned the city only a few weeks ago to lower the noise level. On noise-plagued as well Gaertnerplatz in Munich try to mediate conflict managers – with little success. Cologne and Munich are just two examples of a conflict that is repeated almost every evening in German cities in this form.

How house dwellers can protect against noise
Remedy can be special wall coverings like sound-absorbing plastic panels create. As a result, noise from the outside only penetrates the rooms in a subdued manner, thus ensuring, for example, in the room bedroom for an undisturbed night's sleep. However, the effect of sound-absorbing panels is limited to a certain noise level. Roaring teenagers or the average traffic on a busy street are hidden, but they do not do much to counter the often even shaky noise of landing planes or thundered freight trains.
Another problem: The residents also want to ventilate on warm summer nights, to sleep at reasonably pleasant night temperatures. If the window is open, the noise can still penetrate. It is better to air in the early evening, as soon as the heat of the day has subsided and to close the window before going to bed. If it is still hot, ceiling fans or a small air conditioning system for the room.
Tips for noise protection on the balcony
Evening silence on the balcony, while from afar the twittering of the birds penetrates the ear? In densely populated areas an illusion. Complete noise protection is an impossibility in open living areas such as the balcony or the terrace, but here too there are at least some tools: A soundproof paneling of the balcony railing ensures at least in the lower part of the balcony for more peace. In addition, high green plants such as cypresses ensure a natural lateral sound insulation. Practical side effect: The greenery also protects against prying eyes from the neighboring balcony and also looks visually attractive.

QUEERY: Rev. Michele H. Morgan
By Joey DiGuglielmo
December 23, 2018
The Christmas pageant at 4 p.m. on Christmas Eve at St. Mark's Episcopal Church Capitol Hill features a loose policy on who may appear at the manger.
As teens read the biblical nativity passage, children of the parish act out the story.
"We have a very open policy on who was there," Rev. Michele H. Morgan, St. Mark's rector, says. "If your child loves their honeybee costume from Halloween, we want them in the pageant. Most years we have dinosaurs, super heroes, bees and some Disney princesses. ... We are not strict interpreters of scripture and everyone is welcome extends to the play."
Morgan came to St. Mark's in 2015 from Minneapolis for the post. The church also has a 9:30 p.m. carol sing, 10 p.m. Mass in the round and a 10 a.m. "simple" service on Christmas with reception following that Morgan says is a "very quiet, laid-back service." Advent IV services (Dec. 23) are at 9, 11:15 a.m. and 5 p.m. Details at stmarks.net.
Morgan was ordained in 2004 and was the first "out, big, ole' homo" (as she puts it) where she was serving in Minnesota. The 55-year-old Calgary, Alberta native says "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" is her favorite carol and Luke 7:18-23 is a favorite scripture passage.
She and wife Michelle Dibblee live with their dog Rosie in Fort Totten. Morgan enjoys biking, dog walking, baseball and hockey and cross stitching in her free time.
How long have you been out and who was the hardest person to tell?
I came out in 1986 and my mother.
Who's your LGBT hero?
The Rev. Pauli Murray
What's Washington's best nightspot, past or present?
I have been sober for 32 years, so I am at a loss to answer that. I never go to nightspots, but I do love wandering around union market with my beloved.
Describe your dream wedding
I had it twice: once in an Episcopal Church presided by the now Bishop of Washington with 200 of our friends, both sets of parents and a potluck afterward by all the little old ladies of the church. The second, once we won marriage in Minnesota, on a hillside on a farm in Scandia Minn., with friends, family and a dinner provided by a young transman who was in my first confirmation class.
What non-LGBT issue are you most passionate about?
Gun violence prevention.
What historical outcome would you change?
The Battle of the Milivian Bridge. Constantine's victory gave him total control of the Western Roman Empire paving the way for Christianity to become the dominant religion for the Roman Empire and ultimately for Europe.
What's been the most memorable pop culture moment of your lifetime?
Being thanked last week by Speaker Nancy Pelosi for hosting the National Vigil to end gun violence. She shook my hand and I said, "Thanks for being Nancy Pelosi."
On what do you insist?
That all means all and that as writer and teacher Clay Shirky said: "When you're accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression."
What was your last Facebook post or Tweet?
A picture of Mary who is in her 80s and Brandon who is in his 40s and me.
If your life were a book, what would the title be?
"Always Learning"
If science discovered a way to change sexual orientation, what would you do?
Say I hope that people use it for good, and I would take a pass. I love who I am and who I was created to be and what if I was changed would it do to my beloved?
What do you believe in beyond the physical world?
On some days I believe that I will see those I love and can no longer see again. On other days I believe that done is good. I am OK with both of those options.
What's your advice for LGBT movement leaders?
Work together and embrace intersectionality.
What would you walk across hot coals for?
My wife, my dog Rosie the Thug Princess and the right to go out in the world and not get shot.
What LGBT stereotype annoys you most?
That the LGBTQ community cannot be people of faith and love a power greater then themselves.
What's your favorite LGBT movie?
I know it's cheesy but, I loved "Longtime Companion." I also believe at the end of "Copycat," once the serial killer has been dispatched, the Sigourney Weaver and Holly Hunter characters fall madly in love and run off together.
What's the most overrated social custom?
Something to do with silverware. I mean how many forks do you need at a place setting?
What trophy or prize do you most covet?
The Stanley Cup, mainly because there is only one Stanley Cup. I could never manage to crash the net.
What do you wish you'd known at 18?
That I would have a life that I loved and be authentic to who I was made to be.
Why Washington?
I was offered to do meaningful work here.

Against Christmas & Christendom
By Mark Tooley
December 25, 2018
In a recent interview a Capitol Hill LGBTQ Episcopal Church priest, when asked what historical event she would change, responded:
The Battle of the Milivian Bridge. Constantine's victory gave him total control of the Western Roman Empire paving the way for Christianity to become the dominant religion for the Roman Empire and ultimately for Europe.
Emperor Constantine's victory, which led to his conversion to and legalization of Christianity in the pagan Roman Empire, is sometimes condemned as the launch of Christendom. Some Protestant narratives have faulted Constantinian Christianity for the church's corruption for which the Reformation was antidote.
Contemporary liberal Christians demonize Christendom as the herald of all they despise: patriarchy, capitalism, imperialism, and racism, along with virtually all other social injustices, real or imagined. A Sojourners columnist recently elaborated on Christendom's purported sins like "endless militarization:"
Things like the death penalty, gun violence, and torture also became sanctioned under Christendom, so much so that supporting capital punishment, gun rights, and state-sponsored torture are a pseudo declaration of conservative "Christianity."
This liberal Christian writer further detailed Christendom's crimes:
Immigrants and refugees are rejected, individuals are deported, families are ripped apart, Muslims vilified -- and their countries bombed, women assaulted, people of color attacked, and society filled with systemic oppression, all while Christendom works to hoard wealth, political influence, and power. It disguises such evil as being "spirituality" and covers its tracks by misusing scripture and selectively adapting doctrines to accommodate selfish desires. While the love of Christ benefits others, the machinations of Christendom benefits only itself.
It's a harsh critique of Christendom, based on some truth, but leaving out a lot as well, chiefly that the writer is judging Christendom by moral standards developed by Christendom. That persons all have an intrinsic dignity as image bearers of God is the founding premise of Christendom, starting with the earliest reforms launched by Constantine against the old pagan order in which the value and merit of human life was at best capricious.
That each person should be protected in law as an equal is a social concept fairly unique to Christendom and alien to almost all societies not influenced by it.
Here's a strength and weakness of Christendom: it's endlessly self-critical. Christendom, when it functions well, is endlessly aware that each person bears God's image but also is fallen. All persons and human systems are intrinsically flawed. And no person or institution can be completely trusted. So there is perpetual personal and social self-reflection, self-criticism, self-abnegation and self-correction, with hope for renewal, forgiveness and atonement.
But shorn from its spiritual roots, Christendom, especially when secularized, can become self-obsessively masochistic and self-hating, forgetting its strengths, denying atonement, and narcissistically imagining it is worse than all other cultures, indeed uniquely responsible for unspeakable misdeeds against all others. The Religious Left, although of course itself a child of Christendom, despises its parent, sometimes even denying the parentage.
One of Christendom's most glorious gifts to humanity is Christmas, the celebration of Jesus' birth. The holiday has been universalized as a cultural festival of gift giving, decoration, feasting and good will. Many or perhaps most celebrants of Christmas are not Christian, yet by their participation they enjoy and contribute towards the themes of generosity and hope originating with the Nativity.
Minimizing this holiday's inclusive appeal, a recent Washington Post column bewailed the supposed imposition of Christmas on society:
I like good cheer. But please do not wish me "Merry Christmas." It's wonderful if you celebrate it, but I don't -- and I don't feel like explaining that to you. It's lonely to be reminded a thousand times every winter that the dominant American cultural event occurs without me.
This writer finds the widespread celebration of Christmas to be oppressive and disrespecting of her non-Christian beliefs. She does not cite Christendom but likely would agree with the critique. One problem with her complaint is that every society has its festivals, rites and rituals based on beliefs from which there are always some dissenters. How can any commonalities cohere society if any dissenters have veto power?
Christendom at its best offers a unifying moral and spiritual framework based on God-given human dignity, while based on this premise, respects and protects dissenters from coercion. Most societies outside Christendom are far worse failures at safeguarding dissenters and minorities.
Constantine's victory at Milivian Bridge leading to Christendom, with its complex legacy, lamented by the Capitol Hill Episcopal priest, has across centuries been afflicted with every variant of human depravity. In this regard it resembles every other civilization. But Christendom has offered what most other societies typically have not to the same extent: a drive for human improvement and ability for self-criticism based on God-ordained human dignity.
Christmas, no longer confined to Christendom, is one of its most joyful legacies, based on the story of a God who loved humanity so much that He came to be among us. Its appeal to humanity's nobler aspirations elevates all persons and societies touched by it, whether they specifically believe in that God or not.

How an Anti-Intellectual Elite Are Turning the World Upside Down
The controversial author predicted the rise of Trump by placing "a ruthlessly ambitious, narcissistic, media-savvy villain sporting makeup and coloured hair" in his new book, written before the election. But can he explain the hate of knowledge that persists in the world today?
Well! Salman Rushdie pretty much predicted the future in his new book, The Golden House, wherein the antagonist is "a ruthlessly ambitious, narcissistic, media-savvy villain sporting makeup and coloured hair." Read into that what you will, but Rushdie here posits that he's baffled by the sudden worldwide rejection of knowledge and the elites. He says that it's not just an invention of the American right wing — that it's a worldwide problem that's helped in large part by the likes of Fox News et al — and he wonders both what gave rise to that and how it will stop. Perhaps he'll have to write a sequel.
The Difference Between Pulp Fiction and Lasting Literature
What makes a great book... well... great? Author Salman Rushdie gives us his idea on what separates the classics from the rest of the class.
Writing is a strange beast. Everyone can do it, but very few can do it well. And those that can do it well often have very little cognizance as to what it is about their process that makes it click — F. Scott Fitzgerald died thinking he was a failure despite writing arguably the greatest book of the 20th century (The Great Gatsby). But author, intellect, and all-around bon vivant Salman Rushdie has a good take on what makes great books work: they capture the moment around the character and incorporate it into the story, which helps drive the story forward. It might not seem to many like a massive change, but Rushdie accurately points out that this is what made Gatsby work so well: the novel's ability to capture the moment of the Jazz Age. It's that ability to write layers into the story that separates the wheat from the chaff. If you'd like to read more of Rushdie's work, his latest work is The Golden House.
Hate Violent Ideologies, Love the People Who Hold Them—That's Being an Intellectual
Salman doesn't know why we can't all just get along. If both sides just talked to each other and were less emotional and more pragmatic in their arguments, we might have a better chance of coexisting.
War. What is it good for? Absolutely nothing (woah-oh-oh-oh...). Sure, that might be the popular refrain from Edwinn Star's 1970 hit, but it's also the sentiment shared by author and intellectual Salman Rushdie. Rushdie explains that public discourse has become far too personal, and that people too often conflate their feelings with their beliefs. This leads to a polarized climate wherein neither side wants to back down... something anyone observing today's politics might be familiar to. Salman Rushdie's latest book is The Golden House.
Islam's Violent Factions Are Mostly Killing Other Muslims, Says Salman Rushdie
It is one thing not to discriminate against people, says Salman Rushdie, i.e. peaceful practitioners of Islam, but to foreclose an open debate over the merits of religion is a mistake.
It is one thing not to discriminate against people, says Salman Rushdie, i.e. peaceful practitioners of Islam, but to foreclose an open debate over the merits of religion is a mistake.
Salman Rushdie is a British-Indian novelist and writer, author of ten novels including Midnight's Children (Booker Prize, 1981), Two Years Eight Months and Twenty-Eight Nights, and The Golden House.
The publication of his fourth novel "The Satanic Verses" in 1988 led to violent protests in the Muslim world for its depiction of the prophet Mohammad. The Supreme Leader of Iran, Ayatollah Khomeini, issued a death fatwa against Rushdie, which sent him into hiding for nearly a decade. Rushdie weathered countless death threats and many assassination attempts.
In June 2007, he was knighted by Queen Elizabeth. In 2008 he became a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters and was named a Library Lion of the New York Public Library. In addition, "Midnight's Children" was named the Best of the Booker—the best prize-winner in the award's 40 year history—by a public vote. In 2008, The Times of London ranked Rushdie thirteenth on their list of "The 50 greatest British writers since 1945."

lead generation
Increase ROI and Raise Brand Awareness with Pay-for-Performance Lead Generation Campaigns
Businesses must constantly bring in new leads in order to increase conversion rates and generate new revenue.
With a solid online lead generation strategy in place, you can quickly build your prospecting list and drive site traffic on a cost-per-lead basis. Lead generation campaigns can also be used to drive traffic to social campaigns, sweepstakes, and major promotions.
Lead gen campaigns are well suited for national campaigns with a recognized brand. These campaigns offer free branding and guaranteed results, as they're one of the most effective ways to engage with future customers and build interaction.
Once a relationship within a targeted audience is built on transparency and trust, it's easy to sell products or services to engaged prospects.
In order to build those relationships, the d3 team uses various lead generation tactics, including generating leads via…
- Paid online ads – Social ads, display ads, inbox ads, etc., are all forms of online advertising that can be used to generate leads.
- Emails – Targeted email campaigns are designed to speak to a targeted audience and work very effectively to generate new sales leads.
- Blogs – Blogs with valuable content and strong calls to action are a fantastic digital medium that can be leveraged for collecting leads.
- Social networking – Building community groups through social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter is an effective way to capture the attention of your target audience and generate leads via content or special offers.
- Co-registration – We provide hosted offerings to post and transactional customers which are grouped with other non-competitive brands on 3rd-party sites. These customers associate their positive relationship from the source site with advertiser brands.
Pay-for-Performance Lead Generation Model
With d3's lead generation services, we run programmatic ads and co-registration offers on our network of sites at no charge to you.
This means you only pay on a cost-per-lead basis, when a prospect opts into your brand or lands on your website and completes the approved lead form.
At that point, you own the prospect record and can market to these leads without restrictions or additional costs. Additionally, all leads are net new to file, meaning that if you already have that lead, you don't pay again.
Essentially, d3's lead generation service is a no-lose program with excellent results.
Appointment Setting Services
The pay-for-performance model often saves many businesses time and money through appointment setting services.
After all, people buy from people. And, having a telemarketing service set up to transfer hot leads to a call center is a great strategy that often saves business owners both money and time.
At d3, we can set you up with appointment setting services that will help alleviate the burden of having to spend your precious time converting leads over the phone.
The d3 Lead Generation Advantage
Many digital marketing companies provide lead generation services. However, not every company is able to produce quality sales leads that convert into paying customers.
As one of the best lead generation companies, here's what gives d3 an advantage…
- d3 offers cost-effective programs that enable you to reach highly-targeted prospects that refresh your files.
- We help compile online registrations and expand your prospecting file as well as open engagement with future customers that build strong interaction.
- d3 programs can generate thousands of sign-ups efficiently, effectively, and fast.
- Cost is per lead. All names are exclusive, net new to file, and 100% CAN-SPAM compliant.
- You have the opportunity to take advantage of branding exposure at no additional cost.
Lead Nurture: The Secret to Lead Generation Success
You could generate 20,000 quality leads during a lead generation campaign. However, if you don't follow a lead nurture process to follow up with those leads, they are essentially worthless.
That's why lead nurture is so important. You've got to stay in front of your leads, keep communicating with your prospects, and ask them to perform an action.
Lead nurture can be done in many ways including…
- Email campaigns.
- Sales calls.
- Messaging bots.
At d3, we can help ensure you use the right lead nurture process to get ahead of your competitors and make the most out of the quality leads you receive.

Sporty-chic style in beige with a bow tie
Sporty-chic style in beige with a bow tie and cord trousers to go out and give full attention to yourself. This stylish men's style is a mixture of formal and everyday parts. The beige chino pants and trendy winter shoes make the difference because they give the outfit a casual touch. The bow tie has a pattern of an old newspaper. Is not that cool? It belongs to the selection of KarloGStyle, which is still under construction. The white shirt fits just great with beige.
Did you know that:
- the handkerchief doesn´t always necessarily have to fit with the tie? It can also be combined with a shirt or any other part of the style. (even with the pants, for example)
- one shouldn´t wear black shoes with beige pants. Warm colors and shades of brown fit better.

TOKYO — The Japanese cabinet approved a proposal Tuesday to revamp the country's troubled electricity industry and foster competition by obliging utilities to split power generation and distribution into separate businesses.
The plan is meant to encourage more innovation and modernization of the power grid as the country grapples with its energy policy after the shutting down of almost all its nuclear power plants after the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami disaster at the Fukushima Daiichi power plant.
The plan requires parliamentary approval. First proposed years ago, it was included in a series of economic overhauls being discussed by Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's administration that are intended to improve Japan's competitiveness. The power companies face soaring costs for imported fuel and for maintaining nuclear plants closed for checks after the Fukushima disaster.
Mr. Abe told a meeting of his economic advisers that he wanted to expedite restructuring of Japanese industries to eliminate production constraints and facilitate more business activity and investments, according to a summary of the meeting posted on the government's Web site.
Such changes are part of Mr. Abe's three-pronged strategy for reviving the stagnant Japanese economy, along with more aggressive monetary easing and increased government spending. Mr. Abe instructed Industry Minister Toshimitsu Motegi to submit the power measure to the Parliament as soon as possible. He also urged Mr. Motegi and Environment Minister Nobuteru Ishihara to work together on strengthening environmental impact assessments to promote use of environmentally friendly and high-efficiency thermal power.
Mr. Abe said the next five years would be a time of "emergency structural reforms" for Japan. "We plan to commit as many resources as possible" to that effort, he said.
Mr. Abe has indicated that he favors restarting nuclear reactors if they meet new, stricter safety requirements, though the government is also rushing to increase use of other forms of energy like solar, wind and geothermal power. Such efforts have been slowed by the structure of the power grid, which was designed solely to meet the needs of the regional utilities. The proposed changes would encourage greater use of renewable energy through increased competition, experts say.
The proposal aims to "expand choices for users and business opportunities for operators," according to a statement by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. The changes would be carried out in three phases, beginning in 2015 and ending in 2020.
As a first step, the government intends to create a framework to balance regional power supply and demand. It would fully liberalize power sales and generation by about 2016, aiming to separate fully the power generation and transmission arms of each utility in 2018-20.
The politically powerful utilities have resisted such changes but have little choice, given the parlous state of their finances. Tokyo Electric Power Co., the country's biggest utility and operator of the Fukushima plant, was nationalized after its finances deteriorated because of rising costs from the nuclear disaster.

Nivolumab and Erlotinib in EGFR-Mutation Positive Treatment-Resistant Advanced NSCLC
The immune system plays an important role in the development and progression of many cancers, including lung cancer.1,2 Immunotherapies may have activity across broad non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patient populations by activating the adaptive immune system, including through blockade of immune checkpoint pathways.1,3
Erlotinib (ERL) is US Food and Drug Administration–approved for the first-line treatment of epidermal growth factor receptor mutated (EGFR-MT) NSCLC, with a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 10.4 months.4 Nivolumab (NIV), a PD-1 immune checkpoint inhibitor antibody, has demonstrated encouraging safety and survival outcomes as monotherapy in patients with advanced NSCLC. In light of preclinical data that support EGFR pathway activation of PD-L1 expression and immune escape in EGFR-driven lung tumors,5,6 Rizvi and colleagues undertook a phase 1 study evaluating NIV + ERL in chemotherapy-naïve patients with EGFR-MT advanced NSCLC (ASCO 2014; Abstract 8022). Interim findings were presented for 21 patients enrolled in this study.
The phase 1 study enrolled stage IIIB and stage IV EGFR-MT chemotherapy-naïve NSCLC patients who were either EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) naïve or who had progression after prior TKI therapy. They received NIV 3 mg/kg (every 2 weeks) plus ERL (150 mg daily by mouth) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Objective response rate (ORR) and PFS were evaluated by RECIST 1.1.
Of the 21 patients who received the NIV + ERL combination, only 1 had not received prior EGFR TKI therapy. Their median age was 63 years, and most (95%) had metastatic disease. All had nonsquamous histology and were EGFR-MT positive.
Any-grade treatment-related adverse events (AEs) were reported in 100% of the 21 patients. Treatment-related grade 3 AEs occurred in 5 patients (24%) and included increased aspartate aminotransferase (AST; n = 2) or alanine transaminase (n = 1), and diarrhea (n = 2). Two patients discontinued NIV + ERL due to treatment-related AEs (grade 3 AST increase, and grade 2 nephritis). No pneumonitis (any grade) was observed.
The ORR was 19% (4 of 21 patients, all partial responses [PRs]), and the 24-week PFS rate was 47%. Median duration of response (DOR) has not been reached (range, 6.1+ to 27.1+ weeks). Of the 20 patients who had relapsed after ERL, 3 (15%) achieved PR, all of which were ongoing at the time of data analysis (DOR, 6.1+, 16.3+, and 27.1+ weeks, respectively). Nine patients (45%) had stable disease with 3 of 9 ongoing. One patient had an unconventional "immune-related" response (ongoing), with 46% reduction in target lesions after progression in nontarget lesions. The EGFR TKI-naïve patient achieved PR with DOR 24.3+ weeks (ongoing).
These interim results suggest that NIV + ERL provide durable clinical benefit and an acceptable safety profile in TKI-refractory EGFR-MT advanced NSCLC. These data support further evaluation of NIV in patients with EGFR-MT NSCLC.

Interview with producer John Shima
John Shima has been around on the electronic music scene for quite a while producing finely tuned techno for various imprints. A lot of that time has been spent building an array of analogue and modular synths that help create a rich sound that captures the authenticity of Detroit and London and pays homage to the producers born from those scenes.
How long have you been recording music for?
I started dabbling around 1993. A friend of mine (Chris Smith of CPU Records) got a copy of Future Music magazine and we hired out a small recording studio in the centre of Sheffield to make tracks, the results were a bit poor but we were both hooked from then on. I remember we were using a Mini Moog, Prophet 5, Juno 106 and never really appreciated them, the Akai S1000 was the don for us back then. I managed to scrape some money together and buy some bits to start my home studio.
You're someone who started out by getting signed to labels that released in digital formats only, was your plan always to try and release physical artifacts?
It was never a plan, I think at that time I was buying more digital music so I knew more digital labels to send demo's to. Some of my best music came out digital only and I'm still proud of those releases. I'm a big vinyl lover and have been since the 80's so getting my first vinyl release on Diametric was a huge buzz. There's nothing more gratifying than receiving your music in the post on vinyl.
What advice would you give to any aspiring electronic music producers when trying to get signed to a label?
Be polite and do your homework. Don't just send an email with a soundcloud link and nothing else or an essay on why you're giving the label the opportunity to sign you as these usually get ignored. Introduce yourself politely and make sure you know what they release before you send anything, there's nothing more frustrating than receiving demos from people who clearly don't know the style you release. I used to go through my record collection to find labels I thought would like my demos. And don't take rejection to heart.
You're obviously influenced by a wealth of artists from B12 to Derrick May, who else inspires you from the past and present?
Yeah B12 and Derrick are obviously up there, I would also say the earlier Warp stuff of Forgemasters, Nightmares On Wax, LFO, etc had a massive influence on my sound. These were my introduction to House/Techno around 89/90 and I was instantly blown away, I later discovered Detroit Techno and loved it. Hearing Dextrous and LFO in a dark, dirty, sweaty warehouse never leaves you. It's not just techno that inspires me, I love old 60's / 70's sci-fi movies and the soundtracks for their vision of the future are great. For many years I thought techno had turned a bit stale but a friend introduced me to the music of Arne Weinberg and again I was blown away to hear someone writing the music I love. I then discovered people like Mick Welch, Erell Ranson and it was like a whole scene still doing it. These guys inspired me to get my act together and start finished tracks again and sending demos out.
You also make music under the name of Isomorphic, do you think it's important that artists have side-projects to explore new sounds?
I guess it really depends on the artist, I started doing Isomorphic as a break from techno and enable me to experiment more. A lot of the Isomorphic music is done live, mostly modular and allows me to use sounds and tempo's I couldn't use in my techno stuff. The lack of beats and dark soundscapes refresh my ears and by the time I've finished a few Isomorphic tracks I'm itching to get back writing techno stuff again, so for me it is important. I also release music under the name Fatal Tangent alongside Arne Weinberg.
From what I can see, all of your music is made analogously, how important is it for you to maintain that process?
For me I find it the most natural way of working and helps create ideas. I play as many parts live as I can and record them in. I'm not the best keyboard player so it takes a while but I like doing it that way.
When creating tracks, do you ever get an idea in your head of a sound you want to use and how easy can it be to replicate it?
Tracks always start off differently and are always the result of just jamming around live with no set ideas. So sometimes it can start with chords, the beat or bassline so there's never a set way for me to actually start a track. I can't visualise a track in my head and write it but yeah once I get a track rolling I can start to hear sounds it needs and sounds that would fit in. Sometimes I succeed in doing it but mostly that idea leads to a different sound being used as I'm playing on a synth. I do use certain synths for certain sounds though, so if I think I need a specific type of sound I know what synth to go to straight away.
Are you ever tempted to turn off the machines and just use a laptop?
No, never. I have nothing against laptop producers at all but I love dusty machines and flashing LED's. Just wished they weren't so temperamental.
Where do you see electronic music going in the future, especially electronica and techno?
Hard to say to be honest. Technology is advancing as such a pace and allowing everyone, no matter their budget or knowledge to make music, and this can only be a good thing. If you remember back in the 80s digital synths made analogue gear worthless, and more recently software/vst's made hardware less attractive but now there's a real buzz about hardware again and everyone seems to be liking synths again, so maybe the next step is another software revival but on a much bigger scale. There's the 3D hologram stuff microsoft are working on where you can project interactive tools on your walls or create 3D sculptures on a table. Almost like the holo-deck from Star-Trek. Walk into an empty room and suddenly the walls are full of virtual synths and drum machines. That'd make a pretty cool concert, don't you think?Listen to John Shima on Soundcloud Check out the John Shima Discography

Controversial telly personality Katie Hopkins will no longer be writing for the Mail Online.
The contract for the 42-year-old's opinion column was reportedly not renewed 'by mutual consent'. The column had ran for two years, with the subject matter often sparking anger among readers.
A Mail Online statement to Press Gazette said:
Katie's contract was not renewed by mutual consent.
Katie's last column discussed her decision to wear her wedding dress from her first marriage while attending the Conservative Party Conference.
This was apparently a statement about her thoughts on how Brexit is being handled, as well as a show of her support for The Campaign for Family Law Reform.
Writing in her final ever Mail Online column, she said:
I came to Conference in my wedding dress not only to protest the divorce from the EU Theresa [May] has failed to deliver, but to champion the sort of divorce I believe is better for other couples too.
Katie Hopkins is leaving the Mail Online by 'mutual consent'. Here's a quick reminder of what she thinks about that phrase. pic.twitter.com/uzMeZR8oGt

Katie's Mail Online column being axed comes months after she lost her LBC radio station spot after making remarks in a now deleted tweet about the Manchester Arena attack – calling for a 'Final Solution' over Twitter.
This wasn't the only time this year the former Apprentice star has caused serious offence. In March Katie was forced to pay £107,000 in legal fees and £24,000 in damages to food writer Jack Monroe following a libel case.
In a since deleted tweet, Katie insinuated Jack approved of the defacing of war memorials during an anti-austerity protest. Jack proceeded to take Katie to court on charges on defamation.
Watch Katie in action below:

Katie was recently forced to cancel a book launch at the Lewes Speakers Festival after over 100 people appeared on the streets to protest her appearance, carrying banners and chanting slogans.
Concerned for the media personality's safety, police officers later confirmed the launch had been cancelled, with Katie having left the building.
Katie later tweeted:
Protestors in Lewes. Please be clear. I have left the building. Please disperse peacefully. My thanks to @sussex_police

Katie Hopkins has yet to make a statement about leaving the Mail Online. Usually a prolific presence on social media, it appears she has begun to delete her tweets.
Today she tweeted:
I just registered to DeleteAllTweets.com to delete all my Tweets instantly!
Perhaps unsurprisingly, plenty of people were happy about the contentious column being cut.
One person said: 'Best news all day…how she even gets air time or a column is beyond me…she is so irrelevant and her position is always questionable- beyond pathetic'.
Another person noted: 'Looks like she'll have to do all her hate speech on twitter'.

Going forward, Katie Hopkins apparently has plans in the pipeline to begin a weekly online TV programme, according to the Evening Standard.

She then trained as a journalist through News Associates in Manchester. Jules has previously worked as a mental health blogger, copywriter and freelancer for various publications.

An integrated branding campaign for the marketplace that offers local services and customer reviews launches in the coming months. Arnold, a Boston-based unit of Havas, added the assignment following a formal competition led by Joanne Davis Consulting. Previously, the client worked with various agencies, such as independent Bradley and Montgomery, to craft its campaigns. Horizon Media handles most of the company's media buying chores. Client co-founder Angie Hicks had long appeared in ads as the company's spokesperson. She also serves as CMO, and said Arnold was tapped based on its ability to create compelling work and "improve our marketing effectiveness." Of late, the agency's best-known efforts have included the evolving "Flo" series of ads for Progressive Insurance and an Instagram push for Jack Daniel's revolving around music legend Frank Sinatra. Arnold's first work for Angie's List will target consumers "across demographics who are looking for services to help them manage their home lives," said Pam Hamlin, the shop's global president. Millennials represent a potent "growth opportunity" for the brand, and constitute a key audience for upcoming direct-response TV, digital outreach and experiential activations, she said. Traditionally, ads for Angie's List have focused on the site's ability to provide "reviews you can trust." That won't necessarily change, Hamlin said, though the campaign will attempt to "add dimension to the brand beyond reviews," while continuing to highlight the company's fair-price and quality-service guarantees. Angie's List has spent north of $80 million on ads in recent years, per Kantar Media. Its outlay in domestic media for the first nine months of 2015 totaled $60 million. Despite that investment, Angie's List has struggled as competitors have turned up the heat. Recently, however, its fortunes have started to improve. In October, the company reported the first profitable third quarter in its history, tallying a modest $82,000, compared to a loss of $5.2 million in Q3 2014. In fact, Angie's List narrowed its loss for the first nine months of last year to $3.9 million from $27 million during the same period in 2014. Last November, Angie's List rejected an unsolicited $512 million buyout bid from Barry Diller's IAC/Interactive Group, marking the second time it spurned the advances of that particular suitor. The company now looks to build some momentum, which could make it a more attractive acquisition target—and one able to command a higher purchase price. From Arnold's perspective, Angie's List represents a much-needed boost after a rocky stretch that's lasted a year. One of its largest clients, the University of Phoenix, launched a review in September, and the shop chose not to defend. What's more, the agency's new-business engine has slowed. Its last major score was the National Association of Realtors, which it won six months ago. "There's no better way to kick off the year than by embarking on an exciting new client partnership," said Hamlin. "They have an incredibly strong leadership team that believes in the power of a great creative idea and marketing's impact on fueling brand and business growth."

Princess Anna and Queen Elsa, whose Meet and Greet took Epcot's Norway Pavilion by storm, will be finding a new home at the Magic Kingdom this April!
Starting April 20th, the two royal sisters from Disney's Academy Award-winning film Frozen will begin making appearances at Magic Kingdom Park where they will join other Disney Princesses at Princess Fairytale Hall.
They will be there to greet guests each day from 8:00 am – 5:00 pm.
The best news of all is that Disney FastPass+ service will be available for their character greeting experience, potentially saving Frozen fans hours of waiting in line.
Lines at Epcot to see the Anna and Elsa were always mind-boggling, so it would be wise to book a FastPass+ or to visit the Princesses early in the morning (as early as possible, but definitely before 10:30 am).
For even more Frozen fun at Magic Kingdom, Anna and Elsa will also be appearing on a float in the brand new Festival of Fantasy Parade, which runs twice daily down Main Street U.S.A.!
Also remember that a Frozen segment has been added to the Celebrate the Magic castle projection show!
Cinderella, Rapunzel, and other Disney Princesses will continue to make daily appearance at Princess Fairytale Hall.
The Frozen Meet and Greet at Epcot's Norway Pavilion will be discontinued after the Princesses' move to Magic Kingdom, though it remains to be seen what will be done with the vacant shop space that was converted to make room for the Meet and Greet.
Another Frozen attraction, perhaps?
