In his book Martini, Straight Up: The Classic American Cocktail, author Lowell Edmunds, a professor and doyen of martini lore, mentions a certain Fred Pool who devised a technique of soaking stones in vermouth(a fortified wine, flavoured with aromatic herbs, roots, and barks, used in classic cocktails) in the late 60s, when ultra-dry martinis were de rigueur. Pool reasoned that the minerals in the stones made the martini desirably drier. As outrageous as it sounds, his theory has been put to test by Italian mixologist Christina Bini, of the TriBeCa restaurant in the heart of downtown Manhattan, who serves her version of martini on the rocks. Actual rocks.

If you have been doing your kegel right, the question is whether you have been doing it right? And if you have not been your kegels, then its high time that you start doing your kegels. This awesome exercise is something that you can do anywhere and no one will even know you're doing it.
A month back, I attended the Vibrance Kegel event (read it here). Picked up the tips on how to do it right and of course a set of my own Vibrance Kegel Device to help me do it right. And beyond stronger pelvic muscles to prevent incontinence, doing regular kegel exercise also helps women who have persistent problems reaching orgasm (this is of course done with counselling and sex therapy). In my case, I felt that it helped me in my posture. You can't slouch and do your kegels:P.
A recap on how to do your kegel exercises which I have always been doing for many years:
• And if you have problems locating your pelvic muscles, then insert a finger inside your vagina and try to squeeze the surrounding muscles. You should feel your vagina tighten and your pelvic floor move upward. Then relax your muscles and feel your pelvic floor return to the starting position. That's your pelvic muscles for you:P
• When you've found the right way to contract the pelvic muscles, squeeze for 3 seconds and then relax for 3 seconds.
• Repeat this exercise 10 to 15 times per session. Try to do this at least 3 times a day. Kegel exercises are only effective when done regularly. The more you exercise, the more likely it is that the exercises will help.
Its VERY important that you do not take a short cut and try doing Kegels while urinating. In starting and stopping your urine stream, you can increase the risk of urinary tract infection.
A helpful tip that I picked up is to empty my bowel before I start my Kegel exercise.
And with the aid of the Vibrance Kegel Device, I now know that I am doing it correctly. The device works in 2 options:
• Type A (autonomous training)
• Type B (sound guidance training)
The type A training basically relies on the vibration mode from the Vibrance Kegel Device. When you contract the muscles correctly, the device will vibrate. Relax and repeat 10-15 times.
The type B training is kinda irritating with the sound that it makes but I find that it is good for me to follow the time needed to contract my muscles. When the devise beeps I will contract my pelvic muscles and when it is silent, I will release my pelvic muscles. Basically i contract and release according to the beeping of the Vibrance Kegel Device. Each session is approximately 5 minutes.
During the one month trial I don't bring my Vibrance Kegel Device to work with me. So the device was only used at home in the mornings and evenings. But because I now know how to do my Kegels correctly, I actually do it over my lunch break or in the midst of work hours. No one knows except myself:D And because it comes in a small practical and discreet packaging, I took it along with me when we had my birthday getaway during the weekend.
And if someone knows you're doing your Kegels, its because you're doing it all wrongly. Some signs that you are doing it wrong:
• you are not breathing. You should be breathing easily as usual during your Kegel.
• your stomach and abdomen muscles ache.
When you purchase your Vibrance Kegel Device, this is what you can expect:
One Vibrance Kegel Device and casing, 3 levels of resistance silicone covers, 2 packs of batteries,
user instruction manual and warranty card
There are 3 of these silicone covers to allow you to do your Kegel exercise with different intensity.
Insert the silicone cover onto the Vibrance Kegel Device. Start with number 1 and over a few weeks, you can move on to number 2 or number 3. It took me a couple of weeks to move on to number 2.
Should you use the silicone numbered 1 and you still don't feel any vibration, then you may want to se the Vibrance Kegel Device without any cover for lower resistance.
Apply an appropriate amount of the Vibrance Lubricant onto the device
before inserting it into your vagina.
Wash the devise after use with the Vibrance Cleanser and leave it to dry naturally
or wipe it dry before storing in the storage box given.

In a business setting, many people prefer working within the offices. One disadvantage of that is that a business spends a lot of money on electricity bills as the lights are on throughout the day. To reduce the cost of the electricity, you can choose to use the natural light by installing glass walls or windows.
The other workspace design that you can choose is to purchase the best furniture. If you have unlimited space, and you can engage small sized furniture but great designs. After you have bought the designer you want for their office furniture, be sure to arrange nicely and wisely to occupy the available space.
The other advice that the experts can give you will it comes to the office design is to ensure that you are decluttering your office. When your office is cluttered with items and materials that are not on use, the space will become smaller which can be a limiting factor. For your office to have the space needed and therefore, you need to arrange every item and get rid of the unwanted materials and if you have no time, you can choose the cleaning company. Also, you can decide to put the materials in the order of the use.

Back to Genesis
ICR's publications show that the literal Genesis record of supernatural creation is the foundation of the true gospel, the true doctrine of Christ, true evangelism, genuine saving faith, and of all the key aspects of biblical Christianity. True science, true education, the true institution of marriage and family—and even our original American government—also were based on Genesis creationism.
All truth in every area of life finds its beginning in the Genesis record of creation and the other events of primeval history. That is why God placed it first in the Bible. One vital goal here at ICR has always been to urge Christians—and then others—to get back to Genesis as the foundation of foundations, to be inaugurated, as God proposed, in every realm of our lives.
But that is not all. Genesis is the foundation, but the foundation is not the complete structure. The Lord Jesus Christ is our Creator, but He has also become our Redeemer and will one day be acknowledged by the entire world as King of kings and Lord of lords. That must be our ultimate goal—to win the world and all its systems back to God, in Christ. We must diligently try not only to win the lost to Christ but also to bring the world itself back to God. We must try not only to win individual scientists and educators to Christ, but also to win science itself, and education itself, to Christ. (Henry M. Morris, Ph.D.)

Friendship and Bullies, grades K-3
AFL's picture books about friendship and bullies
appropriate for children in grades K-3
Picture books provide a thoughtful, provocative way to engage students in conversation and can be used to bring together disparate age groups to talk about the same topic, such as bullying and friendship. From simply sharing a story about being different to reading a book that directly addresses an ongoing issue at a specific school or classroom, adults can challenge students to think creatively about how they treat one another/make friends and help them talk about what they see happening around them.

Current Areas of Civil Rights Advocacy
Advocacy for Education: It is sad that the school system though no longer 100% separate is not yet 100% equal. Recently, we fought for more counselors in the schools to give much needed guidance to our youth. Our abiding interest in quality education for all youth makes it disappointing when it appears that a certain milieu of children, teachers, parents, and schools are denied adequate resources pertinent for a world-class 21st century education on the basis of ethnic differences.
Matching our advocacy with action the Education Committee under the leadership of Seth Stuart sent twelve students of different races to Latin America, Asia, and Europe through exchange programs. Also, we have been successful in getting African American administrators in Central Office who had not been there before in decision making positions. As we address the issue like the over-criminalization and incarceration of African Americans, particularly males, our insistence on a quality education for ALL children is of utmost importance. As Victor Hugo said, "[We] who [open] a school door, closes a prison."
Advocacy for Decriminalization, Rehabilitation and Tolerance: While pursuing better education for our children and youth, we do not cease to campaign for more immediate justice for our youth at juvenile hall and in the criminal justice system. The numbers of prisoners on the rise threaten to surpass the state's physical capacity to further incarcerate, the prospects of "re-entry," - the process through which certain inmates will receive an early release from prison and will thus re-enter society - are high. This can be a great opportunity! Thus, we are seriously advocating through direct dialogue with the SF District Attorney, along with Secretary Kate, of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation to ensure that there are programs arranged to make the reentry facilitate safe and productive for both individual and society to which he/she returns.
We submitted a statement that has been approved by the National Board to become the official statement of the National body on the matter of ridding our country of the religious bigotry which continues to be so viciously expressed toward the Muslim community in their efforts to build a mosque near Ground Zero by politicians and others who view the impartment of fear as their only chance at governing the country. Advocacy for Community: We successfully advocated for the enhancement of the Marcus Garvey Housing Development and also for the Ship Yard Development in Bay View Hunter's Point. We plan to stay on top of the Migration Task Force to ensure that they provide equal opportunity for jobs, business contracts and even more developments. Also, we commenced, organized, and led the effort to change the name of the Peter Burnett School to the Leola M. Havard Child Development Center, thereby continuing our fight to remove the symbols of disenfranchisement and bigotry for which likes of Peter Burnett are unrepentantly guilty.

Al Cotton (1835-unknown) was a black Assassin during the American Civil War. He was the ancestor of Leroy Jackson.
He was the son of Mimi, a enslaved black woman. He never knew his father as his father was in a slave auction before he was born. In 1860, Al, his mother, and a few fellow slaves escaped from their plantation with the intention to escape to Illinois. Al and his company where eventually tracked down by the overseer of the plantation. Al was able to escape by preforming a Leap of Faith. The first step in a long path to becoming part of the Assassins Order.
Early LifeEdit
- "Don't worry, my son. All God's chillun have wings."
- ―Mimi to her son.
Running AwayEdit
- "I don't want to be here no more, momma!"
- ―Al to his mother.
In 1850, Al attempted to escape from his enslavement. While his master, Big Daddy McCoy, was inside and the Overseer was going through a different row of cotton, Al made his escape. He snuck silently past the Overseer and into the bushes where he waited for the activity to die down and where he would steal away into the night. He waited until dawn and snuck past the boundaries. Al got as far as five miles before he heard the barking of dogs come for him. He ran his fastest as the dogs ran after him. He was bitten and ravaged by the dogs, only to be saved by the Overseer. The overseer dragged him back to the McCoy Cotton Plantation where he found Big Daddy McCoy waiting for him at the steps of the Big House. Big Daddy McCoy told the Overseer to "whip him hard, and whip him good", which the Overseer took a particular interest in doing.
After his whipping, Cotton found his mother waiting for him the barn. She scolded him for his stupidity of running away without the proper knowledge of how to even survive. Cotton pleaded that he didn't want to be a slave and that he needed to get away. Cotton made a silent promise that he would "fly away one day" from all the horrible slavery.
Flying AwayEdit
"'I got wings, you got wings - Al God's chillun got wings. When I get to heaven, gon' put on my wings, gon' fly all over God's heaven, heaven. Everybody talkin' 'bout heaven, ain't goin' there, heaven."
- Al singing about his escape attempt
In 1860, Cotton, now twenty-five years old decided that he was finally going to escape. He decided to heed his mother's warning that he recieved years earlier and learn to survive. He eavesdropped on Big Daddy McCoy's hunting stories and how he would stay out of sight and silent when he was hunting deer. While picking cotton, Al began to sing a slave song about the escape attempt he planned to do that night.That night at the barn, as Cotton waited for his moment to escape, he was approached by his mother and a few fellow slaves who wanted to come along. Cotton agreed and they all escaped past the boundaries of the plantation.
Cotton and his company made it as far as the woods when they heard the sound of dogs barking and the shouts of men. Cotton's fellow slaves began to panic and became frantic. Cotton, however, stayed calm as he instinctively knew what to do. He told each of them where to hide so that they would not be captured by their hunters. Their hunters passed by them without a notice that Cotton and company had been there.
Cotton lead his party for many miles until the decided that they needed to rest. cotton reasoned that they couldn't go to town as they wouldn't lend rooms to slaves. It wasn't until he was startled by a white man who had been hunting in the forest. Cotton's party where about to make a run for it until Cotton noticed a strange blue aura around the man's body. He automatically knew that they where to be safe with the man. The hunter introduced himself as Lenny Stillwater, an agent of the Underground Railroad who had stationed himself in Mississippi to make it easier for escaping slaves. He told Cotton that he could hide him and his fellow slaves for a night so they could rest and stock up on food.
That night, Cotton had a dream about a man dressed in radiant armor guiding his way. He told him of his innate "sixth sense" of knowledge adn that it could differentiate his friends and enemies. Cotton asked the man if he was God, to whiche the man replied "I am similar" and vanished.
Cotton woke up the next day early in the morning and he and his company departed for Illinois. Along the way, he utilized his sixth sense in many situations: finding unique hiding places, and other agents of the Underground Railroad. It wasn't until Cotton came to a unscaleable cliff that his life would change forever. He and his fellow slaves were cornered by the Overseer and his slavers. Cotton was unable to decide what to do as his other slaves were either being killed or captured. Cotton's mother was snatched from away from him as they were pulled apart. His mother cried out to him "You've got wings, baby boy!" before she was carried away. Cotton struggled free and preformed an instinctive Leap of Faith of the cliff and into the water below.
Joining the AssassinsEdit
"'Up close and personal'? My friend, I think I've got just the thing for you."
- Ulysses S. Grant proposing Cotton's induction into the Order.
Cotton, alone, sad, and tired, wandered the rest of the way into Springfield, Illinois where he had a horrible time. He slept on the streets, begged for money or food, and sometimes stole from vendors. While wandering in the streets looking for a place to sleep he came across a group of Illinois regiments training under General Ulysses S. Grant. Cotton watched them silently from behind a bush watching them train. He sat for hours observing them, contemplating the thought of freeing his mother and getting revenge on Big Daddy McCoy. It was a while before Grant noticed Cotton watching him. He approached Cotton and question him as to why he was watching them. Cotton replied that he wanted to join the army and get his mother back. Grant invited him into his tent where Cotton retold the story of how he came lost his mother and how he arrived in Springfield. Cotton made it clear that he wanted revenge on the slavers who captured his mother. Grant, contemplating Cotton's story and the characteristics of Cotton, made him an offer which caught Cotton's attention.
Grant revealed himself to be an Assassin, a order founded long ago that fought for freedom and justice for the people. Grant, seeing potential in the runaway slave, made a proposition with Cotton. If he would join the Order, help the Union win the war and free the slaves, he would help him get his mother back. Cotton wondered about the deal that lay before him. He wondered if he could even trust Grant. He used his sixth sense and, through it, it was revealed to him that he could trust Grant.
"Getting What I Came For!"Edit
Bigg Daddy McCoy: "So, you came back for your mother?"
Cotton: "Not just my momma! For you too!"
Cotton trained under the tutilage of Grant for the next year. He quickly learned the ways of the Assassins and easily learned of their Creed. He practiced day and night, training himself to be a master free runner and excellent swordsman and gun slinger. Cotton never forgot about his mother, his soul purpose being only to get her back. Cotton finally planned to make good on his promise.

Meet Our Tennessee Orthodontists
Five doctors united in their approach and values.
A bio with a twist…credentials of course, but more personal information for a "personal touch". My wife's name is Anne. We have three children: Olivia (born 2007), Jonathan (born 2009), and Katherine (born 2011).
I attended the University of Mississippi and graduated Magna Cum Laude with a major in biological sciences and a minor in Chemistry. I attended the University of Tennessee-Memphis for Dental School where I graduated in the top 10% of my class. To round out my SEC schools, I attended my orthodontic residency at the Vanderbilt Orthodontic Center where I served as an Assistant Clinical Professor of Orthodontics.
I initially opened my orthodontic office in Cool Springs in October of 2001. I currently practice in Brentwood, off Moores Lane, and in Belle Meade across from Kroger. Our practices have the distinction of being on the top list of Invisalign® providers in Tennessee.
"I always like to add a 'personal touch' when caring for our patients."
I am a member of the American Association of Orthodontics, Tennessee Association of Orthodontics, The Southern Association of Orthodontics, Tennessee Dental Association, American Dental Association, Nashville Dental Society, Millennium Study Club, and recently lead a Spear Study Club. Additionally, I serve on the board of Daystar.
On a less serious note, but more personal note: Other things I love and enjoy: my wife, my kids, my mother and father, my job, my staff, running, marathons (most notable: Boston Marathon), biking, triathlons (Notice I did not include swimming…trying to learn to love it!), seeing old friends, making new friends, Ole Miss, the Grove, my in-laws (seriously), brother and his spouse, sister and her family, my God, our church, sweet tea, chocolate chip cookies, fruit, steak (med. rare to rare), fried chicken (although I don't eat much), the beach, seafood gumbo, a little singing in the office, dancing (and trust me, UNINHIBITED!), Newton, Mississippi (hometown), Neshoba County Fair (look it up), my fair cousins (Stubbs & Tannehills), football, baseball, basketball, Predators, Titans, all genres of music (of course country!), Lightning 100, Nashville, TN, Alpine Camp for Boys, mowing my grass, Ponte Vedra, holidays, Chicago Cubs, the thought of running an ironman (3 young kids…that'll have to wait), pound cake slightly under cooked, taking trips with my family, taking trips alone with Anne (my wife), laughing a lot, out loud and often…"The practice of orthodontics", the art of creating beautiful smiles and the many wonderful relationships I am able to develop with the patients and families I treat.
My name is Dr. Blaseio (rhymes with Ohio) but most call me Dr. B. Originally, from Southern California, I have lived as far away as Germany. I was born just after my parents graduated from their orthodontics program at Loma Linda University (you could say I started my training early). My family moved to Germany just a few weeks after my birth so my parents could start a practice there. My father's growing software business brought us back to California six years later.
Even after returning to California, my family moved to Florida and Germany (again) for brief periods. All this traveling as a kid made me nearly trilingual and gave me a great appreciation for new foods and cultures.
For college, I attended UCLA and majored in Neuroscience. I was a very busy student and spent lots of time rowing for the UCLA crew, tutoring younger peers, and working in a lab. Toward the end of college, I decided to follow in my parents' footsteps largely because I had met so many happy dentists and orthodontists. I attended Pacific Dugoni School of Dentistry in San Francisco, and it was there that I met my wife, Poppy.
Both Poppy and I pursued additional training after becoming dentists. I completed my orthodontic residency at the Montefiore Medical Center in The Bronx, and Poppy finished her endodontics residency at the Long Beach, VA.
In my spare time, Poppy and I love cooking and grilling together, hiking with our dog, Levi, and traveling. Some of our favorite local weekend activities include attending concerts, watching sports games (Go Preds, Titans, and Sounds!), and exploring the Nashville restaurant scene.
Love this orthodontist! Went for a consultation and got braces put on the same day. Lovely environment and very nice, caring, funny, and amazing staff.
Sarah R. (Columbia Patient)
As a healthcare provider and mother of two, I have been nothing but impressed with Dr. Lucas and his entire team at the Belle Meade office. Knowledgeable, welcoming, and FUN!
Margaret S. (Belle Meade Patient)
I am originally from Paducah, KY, also proudly known as the quilt capital of the world for you quilters out there. I obtained my Bachelors of Science in Biology from the University of Kentucky where I stayed to earn my dental degree at the UK College of Dentistry. After dental school, I completed my post-graduate orthodontic training at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill as an Andrew McArthur Brooks Fellow where I received my certificate in Orthodontics and a Master's of Science degree. I bleed UK Blue with a hint of Tar Heel Blue. March Madness is my favorite time of year!
After graduation, I voluntarily completed the American Board of Orthodontics certification process to become a board-certified orthodontist, a distinction attained by only 30% of orthodontists nationwide.
"I am so grateful I was lead to choose orthodontics as my career. My favorite parts of being an orthodontist are unveiling new, beautiful smiles, building long-lasting relationships with my patients, and giving my patients a smile they can truly be proud of. I am honored and excited to be a part of the team at Lucas Orthodontic Group and hope I get to meet you soon!"
I joined Lucas Orthodontic Group in April of 2017 and aspire to continue the tradition of excellence in service to patients and exceptional orthodontic care. I am a lifelong learner and regularly participates in continuing education to stay informed about the latest advances in orthodontics and dentistry.
I am also a member of numerous professional associations, including the American Association of Orthodontics, Southern Association of Orthodontists, American Dental Association, Tennessee Dental Association, and the Tennessee Association of Orthodontists.
My husband, James, and I have a son, Brooks, and baby daughter, Marcie. We are thrilled to have moved to Nolensville and look forward to becoming a part of this wonderful community. Outside of the office, I primarily enjoy spending quality time with family and friends. My family enjoy traveling, spending time at Kentucky Lake and Smith Lake during the summer, hiking, and cheering for the UK Wildcats!
I am from the small town of Norris, Tennessee. While growing up in East Tennessee, I spent part of my time being raised on my dad's Christmas tree farm and the rest with my mom and step-dad on Norris Lake. Having siblings ranging from 19 to 48-years-old ensured there was never a dull moment in my house!
After leaving my hometown, I attended Belmont University where I earned a Bachelor's degree in Exercise Science. While at Belmont, I was a personal trainer, tutored student-athletes, and played almost every intramural sport available. It was during my time at Belmont that I decided to pursue a career in dentistry, which led me to the University of Alabama at Birmingham where I received my DMD.
Throughout my four years at UAB, I developed a passion for orthodontics, specifically the patient connections and gratifications that come with the field. My interest in orthodontics continued to grow and eventually brought me to the Medical University of South Carolina where I completed a three-year orthodontics residency.
In my free time, I love staying active and am a huge fan of most sports including basketball (pro and college), football (Go Dores and Titans!), golf, tennis, wakeboarding, snowboarding, and running (well, I'm trying to learn to like this one).
In addition to sports, I am a big fan of live music so love being back in Music City! Last but certainly not least, coming from a large family, I obviously love spending time with them and my friends!

Female prisoners at a north Queensland jail could sue the state government over unlawful strip searches.
The practice, which took place over a 10-month period to March this year, equated to abuse by the state, says Debbie Kilroy from support group Sisters Inside.
A Queensland ombudsman's investigation has found the Townsville Women's Correctional Centre conducted unlawful and unreasonable strip searches on inmates who were receiving controlled medications.
Ms Kilroy says the result is unsurprising.
"We could find pockets of our prison system where the same unlawful practice is happening. This is one area," Ms Kilroy told AAP.
"We actually need to expose what's happening on a daily basis across our prison system because this is abuse. This is sexual assault by the state."
At least 18 Townsville inmates were searched both before and after they were given their restricted medication until the practice was dropped because of a complaint.
Ombudsman Phil Clarke has recommended refresher training for staff at the centre and a review of the oversight mechanisms of Queensland Corrective Services (QCS), which failed to detect the problem.
Ms Kilroy says the ombudsman's findings could clear the way for a lawsuit against QCS.
She said the women subjected to the searches were predominantly Aboriginal and most could not read or write.
"We need the women to obviously lead that action...they may not want to take this any further. It's a matter for them."

Oru Nalla Naal Paathu Solren Music Review
Oru Nalla Naal Paathu Solren Music Review
Vijay Sethupathi-Gautham Karthik starrer Oru Nalla Naal Paathu Solren is directed by Aarumuga Kumar. The film has musical score by Justin Prabhakaran and is scheduled for release by January 2018.
Yae Elumba Enni Enni
Singers: ACS Ravichandran, Sharanya Gopinath, Dr. Narayanan, MC Vickey
Lyrics: Karthick Netha
Rap Lyrics: MC Vickey
This is a real big surprise from Justin Prabhakaran for he has been far-famed for soft melodious numbers in his erstwhile albums. Even when the situations in script demanded for the peppy tunes, he would play them with mildness. But for the first time, he comes up with an enthralling attempt with tribal music. He has very encompassed the prominence of lyrics, vocalizations and musical components together. The tribal percussions by V Kumar and Thumba Raja emblazon the song to a greater magnitude. The harmonies by Sam P Keerthan and Dr. Narayanan along with Anumanth Rao are one of the greatest sparklers here. The lines by Karthick Neha are laced with humour and mass elements. Especially, to see the Vijay Sethupathi's dance movements in the lyric video enhances our expectations over the song. Justin Prabhakaran has done a remarkable work with this song.

Willie's Off-Brand Web Journal: June 19-September 3, 2006
Monday, July 24, 2006:
NBCs Miss Universe pageant was our TV companion last night, because its instructive in helping me determine my prejudices for the coming year. (IN: Peru. FIVE MINUTES AGO: Cayman Islands. OUT: Sweden.) Predictably, it was a beautiful disaster.
The aptly named Carlos Ponce was one of the co-hosts, and his shining moment came during his interviews with the pageants judges. 11 judges were present, from the talented (Desperate Housewives creator Marc Cherry, who was identified only as creator of a popular TV show because Desperate Housewives is on ABC) to the middling (Bridgette Wilson-Sampras, of Saved by the Bell and Billy Madison) to the useless (newest Donald Trump Apprentice and insufferably overenthusiastic Brit Sean Yazbeck), and the Ponce chose to speak only with the latter category. Sure, if hed wanted to take the easy road to entertainment, he couldve interviewed Cherry, or the hilariously sardonic Project Runway contestant Santino Rice, or the reliably memorable Tom Green but instead, he talked to also-ran actor James Lesure, Claudia Jordan from NBCs spackle-in-our-programming-holes mainstay Deal or No Deal, and former NFL great Emmitt Smith, who declared the pageant funner than playing football.
For the record, I was rooting for Miss Japan, because she first appeared onstage in an impossibly cool samurai outfitcomplete with katana blade!and my fondness for her only grew during the question-and-answer session, because her translator was clearly bonkers. The first softball question she was given was We understand you speak both French and Spanish. Can you tell us why youre interested in learning other languages? After the interpreter got done converting the question into Japanese, poor Miss Japan actually answered the question in French, which was sad not only because the interpreter had clearly jumbled what the query actually said but because the interpreter also didnt speak French, so English-only viewers like myself didnt get a translation of what came out of her mouth there.
Even worse was the second question, If you could change any event in human history, what would it be? After the question and Miss Japans answer were sent through the Babelfish daisy wheel of the Japanese interpreter, the response was the weirdest example of mistranslation since Zbigniew Rybczynskis Academy Award acceptance speech. It seemed to be something about gender equality being good and violence being bad. Commentator Shandi Finnessey immediately called the viewers bluff by proclaiming Miss Japans answer brilliant, while Queer Eyes Carson Kressley made his billionth joke about switching teams due to the contestants allure.
Really, the main effect the program had on me was to underscore the silliness of notions of attractiveness. You know how some words become nonsensical in your mind if you write or say them over and over? (To use an example once given by Gordon Shumway, try saying ballerina a couple dozen times and see if it sounds like a real word at the end of the exercise.) Watching dozens of essentially identical women parade about onstage does the same thing for the human body. You like big boobs? Abdomens so free of body fat you can count the ribs? Long, skinny legs? Have a million of them! Now try to remember why you thought they were so special in the first place!
Were bizarre creatures, us humans. The Grays would surely find us unappealingly lumpy; a race of Jabba the Hutts (I dont care to know what race Jabba was; dont correct me) would find us disgustingly sticklike. Were given odd bodies that have assorted orifices and protuberances, and although theyre generally functional, and evolution has taught us to desire certain traits over others attraction still doesnt make sense.
I mean, I get the biological reasons each person looks the way he or she does. Because of who your parents are, you look the way you do because thats what biology has decided is the most efficient configuration for your body given the tools at its disposal. And, per my understanding, youre attracted to the people youre attracted to because some aspect of genetics/biology/evolution has decided thats the body type youre compatible with. (Which isnt to say reproduction is attractions sole goal, of course. I certainly dont want to imply or argue that homosexual attraction is abnormal or a choice because its not conducive to making babies, or any such dumbshit notions. I simply know nothing about science, so I cant explain my half-baked theories very well.) But how to explain personal proclivities like being into brunettes or redheads or Jewish guys or whatever?
Im not claiming that Im immune to lust or that those who succumb to physical attraction are dumb. One gaze into Bevs eyes and my knees attain the consistency of Terri Schiavos brain. (Get me, being topical. Ugh.) The Miss Universe pageant simply emphasized that such concerns are illogical. Why is it considered pretty for women to have long, manicured dead cells at the end of their fingers? Blue paint swabbed on their eyelids? Legs painstakingly made hairless? Or, from another view, for men to have muscular rumps? Thick heads of hair? Pecs that can dance like Soda Popinskis?
Heres some homework for you: for the rest of the day, pretend youre a robot with no concept of attraction. Humans have different appearances for purposes of identification, but theres no qualifying concept of one being better looking than another. After a few hours of this, think of someone who youve always thought of as tremendously physically attractive, and someone whose appearance has always struck you as odd. Whats the underlying difference? Why is Brad Pitt prettier than, say, Frank Black? Use complete sentences in your answer.
Were weird, is my point.
As an offensive side note, Miss Indonesia may be faced with indecency charges when she returns home because of the swimsuit competition. This is why you dont legislate morality.

Speaking of misogyny, the pageants Sunday night competition, Iron Chef America, has evinced a creepy, woman-hating attitude this season. Particularly toward the first female Iron Chef, Cat Cora.
First off, I know theres very little reason to watch Iron Chef America because it lacks the unique, hyperkinetic kitschiness of the original Japanese version. The know-it-all smarm of Alton Brown is a poor substitute for the wide-eyed play-by-play of Fukui-san, for one thing, and the winking attitude of the production sucks out the charm of the original, whose main draw was the solemn appearance of not being in on the joke. Still its on TV, which means Ill watch it.
Furthermore, you do get occasional, accidental moments of bliss: for instance, during the judging portion of a battle whose secret ingredient was frozen peas, one of the judges cluelessly raved that the peaness really comes through!
However, with the recent addition of Ms. Cora to the cast of Iron Cheves, the series has taken an awkward turn, because Iron Chef America treats her like garbage. It took quite some time after her appearance on the roster before she even got a giant background portrait to join those of Bobby Flay, Mario Batali, and Masaharu Morimoto. Moreover, although her dishes are consistently beautiful and appear appetizing, I daresay shes already lost more competitions than the other three combined.
I know it may sound like Im simply off on another of my conspiracy theories by speculating that the judges are harder on her than on the other Iron Chefs. Ive got proof, though. The clincher was her loss of one particular battle by a tenth of a point.
To the uninitiated, this might sound as though it were merely a particularly close challenge; a loss by a tenth of a point being nearly a point of pride, like losing the Kentucky Derby in a photo finish. Whats odd, though, is that its the only Iron Chef battle Ive ever seen thats employed decimal points. Apart from that particular episode, the judges alwaysalwaysassign marks consisting only of integers. Bev and I both instantly called shenanigans on this. Changing the rules of judging so suddenly is like being the banker in Monopoly and, midway through the game, declaring that youre entitled to a 10% transaction fee just to screw your opponents. Bullshit.
Even when the challengers choose to face Cat, it generally seems condescending. On one episode, she had to face two challengerstwentysomething hipster putzes reminiscent of infuriating Amazing Race winners BJ and Tylerwho said they challenged her because they wanted to face the hottie. So not only was she unfairly outnumbered, Cats ample culinary skills were downplayed in favor of her looks. Greeeeat.
This sort of marginalization of women would be offensive in any context, naturally, and I understand that Im unqualified to speak about it in a certain way: Im a white male, age 18 to 39, and everyone listens to what I have to say, no matter how stupid my ideas are! So I cant entirely get the feminist fury of, say, Ani DiFranco (not that Id want to, to Jons assured chagrin, because she strikes me as being intolerably arrogant) or Linda Holmes (who, on the other hand, is awesome), but when sexism punches me in the face, I pride myself on spotting it.
Whats egregiously offensive to me about the Iron Chef America attitude is not simply that it hates women, but that it actively tries to expel women from one of few territories theyve unquestioningly held dominion over for decades: the kitchen.
Hear me out.
[EDIT 12/12/06: I usually make it a rule not to go back and edit my older entries without threat of legal action, but I re-read this bit today and it really bothered me because it just sounds ignorant. Please allow me to clarify: I'm sure there's a great deal of sexism in the culinary field and I certainly am not trying to pooh-pooh those concerns. However, my impression as an outsider is that women have historically been afforded more respect as chefs than as power players in most other industries. That's not to say there's the sort of equality there should be or that there isn't a streak of good-ol'-boy misogyny at work among foodies; merely that the obstacles for women in this industry, while not in any way insubstantial, are somewhat fewer than in other areas. At any rate, I've softened the following paragraph, because the point I'm trying to make is not that there's never been sexism in the industry, but rather that it seems Iron Chef America is actively trying to erode the position female chefs have attained through the years. If anything continues to sound stupid or sexist on my part, I hope you'll chalk it up to verbal clumsiness and not ignorance. Thank you.]
Obviously, its an idiotic stereotype that cooking is womens work, and its definitely not cool for a man to come home and demand of his wife, Wheres my dinner? like William H. Macy in Pleasantville. However, cooking is a skillan artthe collective knowledge of which has been reverently attributed as much to women as to men for a long time, and thats not a bad thing. Julia Child is spoken of in tones as respectful as those referring to James Beard; James Barber is dismissed as easily as Sandra Lee. Basically, what Im trying to say is that, from my possibly faulty observation, the cooking world is one in which the glass ceiling isn't as insurmountable as in other industries. And while thats uncomfortably predicated on the myth that women should be the ones who know how to cook, its still a highly regarded field, so strong female participation therein is, in my view, a victory. One that Iron Chef America subtly, but clearly, undercuts in a way that strikes me as truly mean-spirited.
Which isnt to say I wont watch, mind you. Theyve still got cool judges like Ted Allen and Mo Rocca, and as I said, its TV. But because of their treatment of Cat Cora, its hardly the guilt-free pleasure provided by other cooking competitions like Hells Kitchen and Top Chef, which present all genders, races, and sexual orientations as equally brain-dead and incompetent.

Wednesday, July 19, 2006:
Something that made me extremely happy today:
For the past month or so, Bev and I have been working in earnest to put together a mix CD to distribute at our wedding reception. Bev's patience with my hilarious wedding jokes has been wearing thin lately, so I've had to start refraining from making song suggestions like "No Children" by the Mountain Goats or "Argh Fuck Kill" by the Dayglo Abortions, and actual progress has therefore been made. The list is far from finalized, but it's shaping up to be a sweet, eclectic little collection of songs for us both to be proud of.
Early in the process, Bev realized that the song "How Very Special Are We," which Debbie Reynolds performed in the Charlotte's Web cartoon, would fit perfectly. Thus, for weeks, she (Bev) has been relentlessly searching for it using every file-sharing program on the computer, with little success. She did locate a 30-second promotional snippet of the song (did someone bother recording the streaming audio from an Amazon sound clip?), and an atrociously squeaky a capella cover of it by Gregory Whitfield, but nothing usable. She tried searching under misspellings of charlotte, made educated guesses about incorrect titles that may have been used to label the track, tried searching for different file types... no dice.
This morning, in The A.V. Club, Tasha Robinson posted a fun article for the weekly "Inventory" column: "15 Book-to-Film Adaptations That Live Up to the Source Material." The article contains lots of great choices, and Charlotte's Web happened to be among them. She writes, "Even some of the songs are sweetly memorable, with an eye toward fleshing out characters and moving the action along instead of slowing it down." In the A.V. Club's bulletin boards, I agreed with her, and, simply as an aside, mentioned Bev's quest to find "How Very Special Are We."
Tasha replied, "I don't know whether 'Charlotte's Web' ever got an official soundtrack release the only mp3s I've been able to find from the soundtrack were probably made by a fan who cut their own tracks from the DVD. But they're good quality. If you can't find the song for your wedding elsewhere, email me ... and I'll send you an MP3. Can't stand in the way of true love, after all. (I'm just going to go ahead and credit you both with true love for convenience's sake.)"
I dropped her a line, and, good as her word, she sent it on over to me along with a nice note wishing Bev and me well. Bev was thrilled beyond words when I played it for her, and I'm ludicrously excited that The Onion now has a hand in our wedding! To put it in a less glib fashion, I like that we now have this song solely as a result of one person going out of her way to be generous. That makes it far more special, in my opinion, than it would be if we'd just found it on Soulseek and unceremoniously grabbed it. I like having stories to go with my music. (See my previous entry, for instance.)
So thanks, Tasha Robinson!

CURRENT FAVORITE LINE FROM THE WIKIPEDIA ENTRY ON L. RON HUBBARD: "Shortly after reaching San Diego, Hubbard ordered his crew to practice their gunnery by shelling one of the Coronado Islands, a small Mexican archipelago off the northwest coast of Baja California, in the belief it was uninhabited and belonged to the United States. Neither assumption was correct."

Monday, June 19, 2006:
Its been a mighty long time since Ive enjoyed a good quest for an album. Last summer, I had a brief but powerful need to get a copy of Sufjan Stevenss Illinois with the original Superman art once I heard it was being yanked from shelves, but Bev had already picked it up for me as a birthday gift. Before that, I think the last time I was so single-minded in my desire to acquire a record was the Great Jazz Butcher Hunt of 1999, which was brought to an abrupt conclusion when some guy read my reviews of the few JB albums Id managed to find and then sent me copies of all the others. (Man, that guy was cool.)
I know Im not saying anything new here, but the thrill of the chase is all but gone for us music junkies. On Friday, for instance, I read in the All Music Guide that two members of the Urinals were once in the amusingly-named band Trotsky Icepick, and within the hour, Id ordered four of the latters albums from half.com (for only $14.13!). Instant gratification. Even after moving to Maine, where I have easy access to only a few good record stores, its rare for me to want an album and not be able to get it immediately from a shop, an online store, a download site like All of MP3 (which, incidentally, is a wonderful thumb-in-the-eye to the RIAA because its perfectly legal, but can offer entire albums for roughly the cost of one song on iTunes since its based in Russia), or from one of my rock geek online friends from around the globe. To have a genuinely difficult time locating a record at this point, youd have to be a true collector looking for something like the butcher baby version of the Beatles Yesterday And Today. And while Im certainly not saying that theres anything impure or soul-damaging about this age of digital convenience, I must admit that I miss the frustrating magic of a lengthy record hunt.
In the early 90s, when I first started devoting my life and allowance to nothing but CDs, my only option was hunting through the shelves of the brick-and-mortar establishments (or, in the case of Sam Goodys crappy Midwestern counterpart Musicland, the prick-and-moron establishments, har) to which my mom was willing to drive me. Though it was still very easy for me to find the entire discographies of most of the bands who were victims of my burgeoning fanaticism (They Might Be Giants, R.E.M., Ramones), every now and again, the first three or four record stores I checked would lack an album I was looking for, and at that point it was on.
Oh, was it ever on.
And never was it more on than during my mission to buy Total Devo. Enigma Records, 1988. 16 digital cartoons from the de-evolution band. First studio album from the spuds since replacing drummer Alan Myers with Sparks David Kendrick. Most importantly, my seventh-grade Holy Grail.
Before moving forward, let me be quite clear: Total Devo is not a good album. Although every American household should contain at least twice as many Devo records as fire extinguishers, there is no reason for Total Devo to be among them. Its an ill-conceived junk heap of clichés both lyrical and musical, the bands pioneering balance of gnawingly catchy hooks and discordant synths has been replaced by irrelevant Flock of Seagulls-style new wave, and for every song thats catchy in spite of its un-Devo-ness (e.g., Disco Dancer), there are three that will make you wince like Benicio Del Toro with an ice cream headache (Id Cry If You Died, a cover of Dont Be Cruel, etc.).
Of course, when I was 12, I knew none of this. All I knew was that tracking down Devos discography was nigh impossible, and I would not rest until I heard each and every song theyd released. I purchased the import compilation Hot Potatoes: The Best of Devo even though its entire tracklist overlapped with the Greatest Hits and Greatest Misses compilations I already owned (plus one song I had on their debut) except for a cover of Secret Agent Man that I had yet to hear. I bought the 9½ Weeks soundtrack, to my parents alarm, solely for Devos awful version of the Newbeats Bread and Butter. The Christmas when my awesome Aunt Kimmey and Uncle Dave gave me the UK releases of Duty Now for the Future, New Traditionalists, and Oh No! Its Devo may still rank among the top five days of my life as measured by the amount of endorphins released by my brain.
But Total Devo remained my white whale. At the time, I knew nothing about albums going in and out of print (and Im fairly certain that Enigma Records went under at some point between the albums 1988 release and my obsessive search in 1992), nor did I realize that even if the album was still being pressed, most record stores would not have stocked it because exactly one person in the entire nation was actively looking for it. So every time my mom took me to the mall, Target, anywhereeven to a store wed hit earlier in the weekId dash right for the D section of the pop/rock department and paw through the CDs like a rescue dog searching for survivors.
I happened to be conducting this pursuit during the era in which the record industry was phasing out the environmentally stupid cardboard longboxes, but hadnt yet come up with the idea of putting top-spine stickers on the CDs to allow you to see what albums were in the bin without flipping through them and looking at each cover individually. Since I didnt know what the Total Devo cover looked like, this led to a lot of moments of naïve glee which were instantly crushed, as Id discover an unfamiliar record in front of the Devo card, between Freedom of Choice and Greatest Hits (the only two discs you could count on seeing every time), and my heart would conduct a victorious triple salchow in the second before I ascertained that I was looking at a misfiled Derek & the Dominoes CD.
I wasnt the only one in my world hunting for a particular record, but it felt like I was. Many of my friends spoke in hushed tones about Metallicas short-lived The $5.98 EP: Garage Days Re-Revisited, whose existence they were aware of only from cheapo biographies of the band. However, they could at least consolidate their efforts to locate it, with each young man agreeing that the first one to locate it would tape it for the rest of them. I was basically alone in my search, as Devo was not a name that was commonly bandied about in the halls of Larson Middle School in 1992, and even those who were aware of the suburban robots programmed to monitor reality (mostly my friends, who never stopped hearing about de-evolution unless I was talking about Simpsons) didnt really care about them one way or the other.
All I could do to keep my spirits up in the days between record-store jaunts was sit in my schools media center (when I guess I was supposed to be doing research for some project or another) and pull up whatever reviews of Total Devo I could find on microfiche. My school had an odd collection of periodicals thus indexed, including back issues of garbage rags like People, and I was able to find quite a few write-ups of the album. Ignoring the content of the reviews, which unanimously declared that there was no reason for Total Devo to exist, I was just so happy to be reading something about Devo that I would print them all from those weird microfiche copiers that would spit out negative images of whatever page you wanted (so most everything would be barely legible white text on a gray background, occasionally accompanied by disconcerting pictures of people with white pupils and black sclerae) and tack the articles on a corkboard above my bed.
Yes, its more than a little depressing that, in a place where many people will hang personal affirmations like the Serenity Prayer or portraits of people they find inspiring, I hung mimeographed two-star reviews of an out-of-print record published in magazines of negligible worth.
So the search continued for many months. Then one enchanted Saturday, I was sent to a forensics meet in Ann Arbor with a few of my classmates. (Forensics competitive drama, that is, not forensics examination of dead bodies.) My parents agreed to be parent chaperones, which was probably because my dad wanted to buy some University of Michigan gear, but which also meant that during the lunch break, alllllll the poor saps in our group had to go record shopping with me because there was a record store next to the sandwich shop where we ate. I forget the name of the record store, and I think its long gone now, but I assume it involved a play on some common phrase that contained the word record, like Land Speed RECORDS, Off the RECORD, Some Portions Pre-RECORDed, or somesuch.
My parents gave me a ten-minute limit to look around, out of courtesy to their charges to whom they were unrelated. Fair enough. I really needed only one minute to investigate, because there was only one album on my mind. I clearly remember Laura Uberti and Laura Carbone standing next to me in the aisle, chatting and probably bored out of their minds, when I literally shouted, Its Total Devo! The Lauras looked over at me with a mixture of disgust and pity and then continued their conversation. Screw them, though: there it was. The incredibly unappealing picture of five nearly middle-aged men wearing primary-colored jumpsuits, posing in a bizarre fashion that emphasized Jerry Casales jowls and inexplicably required Kendrick to rest his chin on Bob Casales ass, all in front of a reddish-orange backdrop that featured the happy/sad Venn diagram Id be drawing on all my schoolwork for the next year. Total. Devo.
Theres not much of a denouement to this tale; you can basically picture the words THE END superimposed over a shot of me holding Total Devo in my materialistic little fanboy hands for the first time. I cant even remember my inaugural listen to it. That may be because its not a very memorable album, but its probably because the music was, by that point, secondary to the capture.
Since then, I have naturally come across any number of albums that thrilled me, but I cant recall another whose acquisition was such a personal triumph. The only comparable experience I can think of is my effort, two years later, to get a copy of the film Sirens, as I was harboring an unhealthy adolescent crush on Elle McPherson, but thats a far more unwholesome story which Ill spare you. The point is, as much as I love the Jiffy-Pop accessibility of our society, I wish I didn't have to sacrifice the little treasure hunts that kept my senses sharp.

Osama Bin Laden To Get Coal In His StockingPublished February 2009 0 Comments
NORTH POLE – For the 60th year in a row, Osama bin Ladin will receive a chunk of coal in his stocking. Santa Claus announced the decision during a C-SPAN interview last week.
"The old saying still holds true. I know who has been good and I know who has been naughty. And let me tell you, it's been a long time since I have seen someone this naughty. If I could get away with spanking him I would… but I can't now because of that whole Bobby Wilson incident in 1973. Parents get so uptight about some things," said Claus. "But yeah, this Osama guy is definitely getting some coal."
Since the announcement, security around the North Pole home of Claus and his wife has been increased with air patrols from both the United States Air Force and the Canadian Air Force.
"If he wants to do me harm then let it come, but he still won't stop me from doing my job come Christmas eve," said Santa. "You know I'd like to see him try to come up here. My elves will tear the guy a new one. They might be small but boy can they do some damage below the equator, if you know what I mean."
Osama bin Laden was unavailable at press time.

Lovely choices, Melanie! I'm looking forward to receiving a Budgie from your Feltmeup shop - he's going to be a Christmas gift for my MIL who's just got herself a new pet blue budgie - which will be spending Christmas with us (snow permitting!).
I love the kingfisher birdie - and the notebooks are fab too.

Kenny looks like he's about to get into trouble any time soon. Nice birdy selection.

text: I was just @ a Four Points Sheraton yesterday for a conference. I asked the front desk clerk when everything between Marriott & SPG would be merged....like rewards & room/hotel selection. He did not know about rewards, but said I could book SPG now & use my Marriott rewards & have the same status in both. I told him I am waiting for the time when I can go on 1 site (like Marriott's as I like how it is set up to book & find the SPG site too cumbersome & non-user friendly) & see all available hotels for both Marriott & SPG for the date/location I am researching. He did not know if this was in the works. Does anyone have an answer to this?
