Now every ting is lovely
So dont put yu trust inna false prophecy
Dis a de Edley Shine Stevie
You might wonder
Stand firm to all those who feel concern
Ca when you cant see the light
You must see the Robins in flight
Life is just a matter of time or space Stevie Wonder
So all those who have to face sorrow
Shall only have to wait till tomorrow
Big tings a guan dis year
So mek we drop inna gear
Come cross missa Stevie Wonder
Watch it!
Now where do I start to make the point that Ill be making
To most efficiently use your time that Ill be taking
With the clear understanding that every ticking second is precious to us all
But if you let me bend your ear and listen up you will hear
Not just what I say, but every word that I am saying
You wake in the morning from a dream with spirits dope hype
Though you real life condition is far from being alright
Your love has wronged you, your moneys gone, youve lost your home and everything you own
But before you do something major extreme
Ive got one simple thing for you to take along with you, as you go on your lonely way
Tomorrow robins will sing, tomorrow robins will sing
It really is no big thing, cause tomorrow robins will sing
Tomorrow blue jays will fly, the weather forecasts clear skies
So dry those tears from your eyes, cause tomorrow blue jays will fly
You borrow a dime to call up a friend that you could rely on
They put the phone down, you hear in the background tell him Im not home
Your face is broken, your throat is chokin, you hang up the phone in disbelief
And to make matters worse
You can remember you were the first and only one to come to him when lonely was his everyday
But if what you did came from your heart and not expecting
Then you should not waste one heart beat on any regretting
The sayings older than old yet true for today as when it was made to be told
As you saw so shall you reap
And if youve treated life sweet
Your blessings been ordained and already on its way
Tomorrow robins will sing, tomorrow robins will sing
It really is no big thing, cause tomorrow robins will sing
Tomorrow blue jays will fly, the weather forecasts clear skies
So dry those tears from your eyes, cause tomorrow blue jays will fly
Today is the tomorrow you were so worried about
Looking over your yesterday
The clouds are gone and the sun is out
And everything has worked out irie okay
Tomorrow robins will sing, tomorrow robins will sing
It really is no big thing, cause tomorrow robins will sing
Tomorrow blue jays will fly, the weather forecasts clear skies
So dry those tears from your eyes, cause tomorrow blue jays will fly
Tomorrow robins will sing, tomorrow robins will sing
It really is no big thing, cause tomorrow robins will sing.

I wont normally blog about music. I dont pretend to be an expert. But within the space of a week two things music-related have really taken me by surprise.
Firstly, I went to Emmanuel College May Ball last Sunday. Absolutely brilliant. The theme was (or at least it was supposed to be until the PC brigade got annoyed but thats another story) and we were greeted by an orchestra playing last-night-of-the-proms style ditties with gusto, and a welcome glass of champagne. Now sometimes, Cambridge balls secure some pretty good headline acts. Queens may ball two years ago had the Klaxons (ve been told this party goes on til six a.m so this ones for you Queens - its not over, not over, not over, not over yee-et!!). However this normally happens becuase the ball committee have the foresight/insider knowledge to book big names before they actually get big. You know its not a good sign when they decide to book a band whose one hit was on NOW 39 in 1998 (what are we on at the moment, incidentally? Now 100 something? hm.) So, and wait for it, think British Empire, think opression of the Indian Subcontinent, think worn out racial stereotypes.oh and theyve booked the appropriately namedCornershop. Sorry, you cant remember the hit? Well its a brim full of asha on the 45. I do remember it and a bit of research tells me that Ascha is a pun - its both the name of a Bollywood star and the Urdu word for hope. Which is ironic because I hav a feeling the lead singer lost all hope before the millenium. He actually rolled his eyes at the audience.Ok we may have merrily been singing brim full of asha to thier first piece when that wasnt actually what they had opened with but even so. He sucked all the life out of the entire performance by woken up to find the hotel tv showing a documentary on the history of golf clubs.
Music number 2. This is much more of a success. Jann talked me into attending what I thought was going to be a Soho Dolls gig. It turned out they were only doing a DJ set for their new club night (the wonderfully titled Shut Your Pretty Mouth) and I ended up distributing flyers with a band member and befriending the doorman Trevor. Anyway. A last minute booking was a girl called Charli XCX and she was breathtaking. I wanna be darth Vader was her first bizarre offering. I wasnt immediately smitten, I mean, the girl was prancing around in hot pink romper suit, simultaneously playing with props and humping them. Oh and occiasionally making star wars noises. But after Art Bitch she grew on me and by the closing dinosaur sex I was pretty taken with the mental little thing. Think an 8-year-old Lady Gaga on viagra and youd be half way to an accurate depiction of her child like energy and her seemingly precocious sexuality. Shed be amazing to photograph with all that energy so I gave her a business card. Without meaning to sound like a deluded lover, I hope shell call.

Info
The Death of Adam is the debut album by producer and rapper 88-Keys. Released on November 11, 2008, the album features guest appearances by Kanye West, Kid Cudi, J Davey, Redman, Bilal, Phonte of Little Brother, and alternative rock group Shitake Monkey. The album tells the story of an investigation surrounding the death of a man named Adam who was murdered in his Harlem loft apartment. During a recent interview in regards to the album's concept 88' stated:
The entire album is about the power of the punani, if you will. The album follows the story line of my man Adam who passed away and basically how he died. It all started off with him catching a boner one morning, morning wood, and his life starts to spin out of control from there. The story is told instrumentally, while the featured artists help get the story across."
88' has described that his inspiration for the project derived from the thought, "What gives me pleasure?" His obvious answer being vagina. Aside from tracks, the album's investigative story is told through visual means, particularly DCN 27 News pieces that were distributed on multiple video-sharing sites. In the faux news bulletins, local news reporter Chip Adams interviews various artists who apparently knew Adam to a certain extent and provide their feedback on his death. The viral series includes cameos by Q-Tip, Consequence, Kid Cudi and Shitake Monkey.

I Mean…

  • Jun. 13th, 2009 at 12:00 PM

Whenever people make a point that something is au courant, they say Bla Bla is the new black. Isaac Mizrahi thinks Competition is the new black (in an effort to promote The Fashion Show on Bravo) and Queer Eye guy Carson Kressley, once declared Gay is the new black, (well, perhaps it was in the late 70s, but definitely not when his show was happening. If anything gay became the new annoying). The phrase originated in 1983 when Gianfranco Ferre referred to his somber collection in the LA Times that, Grey is the new black. We can agree on one thingthat this expression is totally gay. Today, I am here to announce that Black is the New Black. Lets start with the obvious. Barack and Michelle Obama. Their presence on the landscape is a constant reminder of this fact. But, lets look beyond that. The upcoming Disney film, “The Princess and the Frog” will feature Princess Tiana, the first black lead character voiced by Anika Noni Rose. Call me crazy, but I think this is completely fabulous. But naturally, there are rumblings on the internet that she is not black enough. Come on. Must really black be the new black. Cant black just be new black? Must we split hairs with what shade of black is the new black? According to folklore, Abraham Lincoln once said, You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time”. Boy, whether he said that or not, it sure rings true to this day.
Moving onwhen the fashion industry screams for color, color color on the runway, ask most retailers what sells best in the endthat shocking yellow or orange dress, BUT IN BLACK. Heres the skinnyblack will always and has always been the new black. Black is so backand if you dont believe me, here are some great looks from the current resort collections.

I was driving down the street on a wonderful sunny afternoon and had a Great Misogynistic Epiphany / Rape Defense:

It's muuuch more traumatizing for men to get raped in prison by other men than it is for Women to get Raped by an Acquaintance who they really should just give-it-up-to-already Anyway.

Yeah, as far as Rape is concerned, these days I'm most interested in Date Rape and Acquaintance Rape. According to RAINN, ~73% of rape victims know their assailants. It's not a masked stranger jumping out of the bushes with a butcher knife. It's a night of drunken line-crossing.

C'mon. Don't make me call the integrity of RAINN into question. That would be a Real Womanly thing to do.

No, I don't have anything valuable to add to the conversation, and I haven't done my reading and research for today. I just wanted to Plant The Seed. Get the Audience Thinking. And the more I think about it, the more I'm not surprised by that statistic.


What kills me is that there's still people out there who have no concept of Spoilers. That MAYBE you haven't seen the movie/show yet and don't want to hear about the shocking ending. Most times I laugh, because I'm not really invested in LOST or whatever, but still.

What's really shocking is that the time has come where I'm giving LESSONS IN COMMON SENSE.

I'll be going to see the Swedish Heavy Metal band OPETH this Sunday. I started really getting into Opeth after getting out of high-school, and then I sorta lost track of them around 2004 or so. But then I picked them back up again. I have to thank their Live Album "The Roundhouse Tapes" for waking me up, and would recommend it to any old Opeth fan who has lost the fayth.


I'm not gonna sit here and bash myself because that just sounds spastic, lame, weak and womanly - to be sure, I'm madly in unconditional love with myself - but I recognize I've not made the best decisions regarding my Education and Professional Career Path. I bought the Line that said "There's Real Value and Versatility in a Liberal Arts Degree! A Wide Range of Employers are attracted to someone with such strong Writing and Critical Thinking Skills!"

As a 20-year-old snotnose with very little ambition beyond The Sensualistic and The Spiritual, I wanted so badly to believe that. "It'll all turn out ok in the end, Wildman; just finish your degree," I told myself. (Back then, I was known as "Wildman"or "Mr. Nature", and had not yet incarnated my Classwar: Man of Absolute Power avatar.)

Now, as an Old Man, I can clearly see what a Crock Of Shit this was, and I wish I hadn't fallen for it. But I did, and you cannot change the past.

What I'm saying is, You better believe I'm playing with The Spreadsheet so I can take my Accounting and Business Instructors out to L.V.N.C.H.


I'm not really a good listener but I try to play myself off as one. I nod my head and say "uh-huh" and "mm-hmm" and rephrase what I'm being told and I try not to challenge more than 25% of the other person's beliefs, because very few things offend me more than:
When you're talking to a person and you don't really want to have a debate or an argument, you just want to have a chill, low-impact small talk conversation; and then, after almost every thought you contribute to the conversation, they other person says the equivalent of "Yeah, But, What If You're Wrong." Fucking Rudies. I'm not wrong, and even if I were, I don't care. See ya later, I got some Levels to Grind.


There's a lot of episodes of "Wife Swap" that deal with religious fundamentalists. I watch these families and get a Wicked Cringe on. Recently there was an interesting twist: Fundie Wingnut Wife gets swapped-into a family where the father is a former preacher; who, finding the Fundie Worldview too Limiting, he devoted his life to really trying to understand the Good Book, and got a PhD in biblical studies or some shit. He, and his similarly-minded wife, were reallllly offended by what they saw as (and what clearly was) Brainwashing of the Fundie Kids by their Fundie Parents: i.e., it is The Woman's Duty to be a Subservient Housewife.

There was a Harrowing Scene where the Empowered Wife took the Fundie Girl out for a walk and explained that Being a Wife'n'Mother and having a Career were not Mutually Exclusive; and that the girl should not deny her dreams of becoming a Doctor just because the Book says she has to be a Mother first and foremost and nothing else. The girl struggled with this revelation; you could tell that in her little heart she wanted to believe this; but, wracked with guilt about "rebelling" against her Fundie Parents and her Fundie Religion, she went back to her old ways once Liberal Wife moved out. And Fundie Family couldn't be happier.

So yeah. Interesting twist there. It's one thing to get Fundamentalists together with Atheists or Wiccans or something ridiculous, and, if you've ever watched "Wife Swap", you know they have. But here was the first time I'd ever seen such an opportunity for meaningful discussion: the God PhD guy was clearly a man of deep faith and was even reduced to a big Weeping Faggot at one point out of his frustration with the Fundie's Closed-Mindedness.

I guess the only take-home point is that some people are more comfortable with a restrictive brand of religion, whereas others are more comfortable with an unbounded "spirituality."

But it was kinda heartbreaking to see the poor damn kids being sucked into it without a choice. The Fundie Father was forward in admitting: "Yes, if you want to call it that, I am
AINWASHING them. Brainwashing them into what I believe is right."

And some people just will never see any problem with that.

Those poor girls are going to suck so many dicks, so willy-nilly, once they get out of that house. And wear thongs. They'll never pull a Moral Man like me.


We are all expendable. That's what these Tuff Times are telling me. The rug could be pulled out from under any one of us at any minute, with no other explanation than "It's the economy, stupid." One doesn't need any other reason to get laid-off. You could get laid-off tomorrow, and no amount of experience or education will be your parachute. Things are hopeless. I see this as all the more reason to Be The Best You Can Be. I might not have the most high-status job, but it took enough Soul-Sucking to finally get the job, and so thus I try to be Superemployee all day every day. And even that's not gonna make me nonexpendable, but at least, if I get the Ax one day, I'll be able to sleep at night knowing it was not because of any personal incompetence, and that the people who swung the Ax will feel horrible about having to do it.

Not that I'm foreseeing any Ax in the near future. But things regularly slow down during the summer here, and, of course, budgets are being cut everywhere.

I should probably be at my Union meeting that's going on right now, but the sentiment is, that the Union is pretty useless. I think I've discussed this before.

It's not a simple matter of rank-and-file apathy or of undemocratic, self-serving Union Beauracracy. It's more of a matter of being So Low on the Totem Pole that your job is almost not worth protecting. Not like there's anything you could really do to protect it anyway, being the Lowest On the Totem Pole. Plus, there's no impending or definite threat of layoffs. The only thing I'd ideally negotiate is a Better Contract that would turn this into a Real Job. (Not that I think such a negotiation would be feasible or even plausible anyway!) But it's clearly Not Meant to be a Real Job, so..... talk about a Vicious Circle!


Did that Hannah Montana movie BOMB or what? Pretty soon, she will be going the way of Lizzie McGuire. Anyone remember Lizzie McGuire?


Yeah, looks like I've again posted a very narcissistic, navel-gazing post. You don't like it, go on the internet and complain.


Jeff Buckley. Man, is THAT guy overrated.


I really like how I've started using the word "womanly" as meaning "stupid, lame, and weak." It's even better than "GAY".

So have a nice day/week, and try not to get shitcanned.

Ladies and gentlemen, it has taken far too long for me to make this announcement. In my defense, I attribute the delay to the time it took to sort through these truly excellent stories and select the three winners. Sarah and I both had to make some very, very difficult decisions to narrow down the field, and many worthy stories did not receive awards this year.  Thats just the burden a contest judge has to bear, I suppose. Thank you, thank you, a million times thank you to everyone who contributed, and a most hearty congratulations to the three victors whose stories will be illustrated. And now, without further ado, I ask you all to follow the jump, where the lovely and talented (a cliché, perhaps, but true) Sarah Clarke will announce the winners in her own words.

A Tennessee-based medical products company has agreed to settle 29 lawsuits related to treatment provided by a former West Virginia surgeon who has been named in 124 medical malpractice lawsuits, according to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The settlements by Wright Medical Technology Inc. stem from a bone fusion material used by John A. King while he was on staff at Putnam General Hospital in Charleston. The bone fusion material Allomatrix had shown minimal benefits in studies preceding its use by King.

in a recent New Yorker article while also alluding to some of the primary differences between the Austrian school of economics and the neoclassical school.  It is interesting to note that the article presents its psychological anomalies challenging economics as “new”; Mises ran into this sentiment over 50 years ago and mentions psychoanalysis specifically in Human Action.  Neoclassicals do indeed view humans as automatons, a sort of robot that always acts in its best interest.  This is one of the base assumptions of a lot of mainstream econ articles is that humans are such automatons—it makes them easier to jam into a mathematical model.  Austrian are generally subjectivists, and they consider humans to usually pick what they perceive to be the best option, whether or not it actually is (as the article suggests).  Thus the motivation for the action, whether it is a psychological anomaly or not, isn’t part of economic theory.  That doesn’t mean it isn’t important; it certainly is.  We may be able to identify certain people as acting insanely or irrationally indeed the market helps us identify these things.
Economics can be considered a scientific method for formulating a system of coordination of human action to allocate scarce resources.  Unfortunately one cannot run controlled experiments, which are the best way to prove any scientific theory but it does seem, whether going with the pure Austrian method of a priori reasoning and/or using some empirical observations (such as North Korea vs. South Korea or East vs. West Germany) that certain systems stand out from others.  Those that recognize private property rights and free market environment appear to provide a better system of coordinating by distinguishing the costs and benefits of the aforementioned human action.  However, Austrians recognize (or should) that humans are flawed and thus, as the article points out, may make the “incorrect” or least “objectively” beneficial action.   It does however encourage people to make the more “correct” choice because of competition between individuals over resources.  If one person is able to produce a good or service, or purchase a good or service at less cost, the more costly provider will tend to be pushed out of the market.  An important thing to remember though is that the market will not guarantee the best option will be chosen.  Indeed, in the subjectivist conception, there is no objectively best option—only what flawed humans perceive to be their best option.  If a horribly inefficient method of providing a good or service is being used, the market does not guarantee it will be remedied.  However given that man is generally a varied and creative animal and thus can imagine all manner of improvements in his conditions.  These improvements may or may not work out (there are always business failures and bankruptcies).  Along the same lines, is not the goal of a well-functioning economy in my opinion; hence the consumption fetish that much of the mainstream has is problematic.  The goal is coordination of subjective preferences.  If everyone preferred to live as an ascetic, then the economy would never “grow” in the traditional sense—and there would be nothing detrimental about that fact.
This leads me back to the article which tries to suggest little psychological tricks to get people to choose certain actions.  As long as those actions aren’t the product of coercion (as coercion implies shifting the costs of something onto another person rather that the beneficiary of that something entailing most of the costs; or that the threat of destructive action is replaced for a tradeoff between productive actions), I have no problem with carrying them out.  Perhaps it will produce a more efficient result; the costs of carrying out the actions in a free market versus the benefits from them would indicate whether or not they would.  The system of coordination for the actions should be of importance for economists; the motivations behind the actions are, somewhat, of little consequence, though interesting from other points of view.  The so-called “behavioral economics” isn’t much different than behavioral psychology and thus outside of the much of the purview of economics.

Back in the day, I was a massive Garfield fan.  Many of my contemporaries were Calvin and Hobbes denizens.  A solid comic, but one that exited stage left too early and always had a smug air of superiority.  The snowmen Calvin used to make though were magical.  Garfield was a solid standby.  There was not anything too deep going on in there, usually a couple of cheap jokes and a witty remark.  John Arbuckle, Garfields jackass owner, was often the funniest part of the strip.

Valtrex- pass the brain bleach

All Best Buy commercials are basically the same: An employee who looks like working at Best Buy is the absolute thrill of her life tells us about this time when this person came in without Clue One what they wanted, and Omigd it was so Kewl to be able to hold their hand and guide them to whatever overpriced piece of junk the store was trying to pawn off on customers that week, and gosh you should have seen the smile on the customer's face when they walked out the door, it was priceless and it's the reason Life is Still Worth Living.

The most recent one I've seen uses Mother's Day as an excuse to drown us in Good Customer Service Treacle. "This kid came into the store, looking for something for his Mom for Mother's Day, and he knew he didn't want to get just anything, or a video game, but he didn't have a lot of money to spend, so I showed him this really neat keychain, and he could put images of himself with his mom (aside: raise your hands if you carry around downloadable images of yourself with your mom. Anybody? Anybody?) and his mom would look at it and say 'wow, this kid really loves me!'"

As if we arent' already drowning in sickly syrup already, the commercial ends with the Deleriously Happy Employee gurgling "we all think about our moms." Um, ok. Good "point."

Look, it's not that this commercial is so bad- it really isn't. It's just that I've been in a lot of Best Buy stores over the years, and I've never been approached by anyone who looks like my satisfaction as a customer is the Most Important Thing to Them Ever. More often than not, all the Best Buy employees I encounter in a store are forever jabbering away on their Blackberries (I heard one of them tell the person on the other end- LOUDLY- how bad it sucked to work at Best Buy, don't apply here, the manager is a FUCKTARD and he won't give me Saturday off the MFing MFer....) or playing the video games set up to entice CUSTOMERS to buy the latest Brain-Dead Delay Your Adulthood Pointless Toy being peddled to the thirtysomething crowd. The most I have ever gotten out of a Best Buy employee is "you need anything?" or "finding everything ok?" And that's actually all right- I don't want advice from people who I'm sure know which new cell phone is the Must Have Phone of the Month but who probably can't tell a toaster from a clock radio, anyway.

So how about a little honesty, Best Buy? Let's have a commercial in which an employee rags about how she had to stop texting her BFF for five minutes to help some lame-ass loser pick out
a vacuum, like she knows anything vacuums I mean they are all the same, like, right? And then this idiot even asked about a warranty, and I had to go in the back and get Bob the manager 'cause he's like middle-aged and he knows about shit like that. And then you know what happened, Bob rang up the sale under his code key so I didn't even get credit for the sale even after I stopped texting to help and all, the prick.

I'd appreciate that commercial. Because just once, I'd like to be able to watch a commercial and say to myself "that is so what really happens. I am so there.

Ladies' Home Journal claims in its latest issue that Paula Abdul admitted having spent twelve years addicted to painkillers. The LHJ story includes extensive quotes attributed to the pop singer/dancer/choreographer/American Idoljudge. Yet in interviews and a statement to the media released yesterday, Abdul fiercely denied having said any such thing.But the question of was-she-wasn't-she-addicted pales beside the question of why we might care. It's not merely because she's a celebrity. It's largely because the self she displays to the world is very vulnerable:part insecurity, part giggly spontaneity, part impetuous passion and part fear. In other words, an easy target. We feelsafe with her. So we attack.

This is where we are with the Republican party right now: Barack Obama could appoint Ronald motherfucking Reagan and eight of his perfect clones to run the entire Supreme Court, and the right wing politicians and pundits would stand in firm opposition to this illegal Puerto Rican socialist community organizer Nazi faggot activist Hollywood actor and throw teabags at his grave. This nomination process is already hilarious, and we have several more months of it. Remember last week when Obama said he wanted as a characteristic for his Supreme Court nominee, and how that word went over on the right, as soon as they dictionary.comd it? Theyre still going on about that, with two arguments: (1) even after dictionary.com-ing it, they still dont know what it means and so its an evil liberal word, and (2) Hitler.

In this blog I will tell you a little story about Genova, or as its called by the natives.
Today we took the longest bus ride to date to the city of Genova. The city is an old port city and is still used today as a major transport hub. The city is a blue-collar population and definitely has its slummier areas. The entrance into the city was interesting in that the road enters above the city level roughly 7 stories high. So the highway basically intertwines with very tall dense urban housing. I felt lucky that my suitcase wasnt stolen by a Gypsy on our 5-minute walk from bus to hotel. You could say this city doesnt feel too safe. Our room is much nicer than some of the rooms we have stayed in the past. These bedrooms were made for 4 so we picked up a new roommate, Belcastro (cool kid). The room is somewhat spacious, but the bathroom is definitely not. Of course I had to immediately test it out and lets just say the experience felt similar to being frisked by a police officer (not that I have been). The toilet was a staggering 12 inches from the wall in front of it, so in order to properly use the device, one is forced to sit legs spread and with a stout posture. Its not very ideal for working the angles, and poops will be limited here.
Poop talk aside, we went on a walk later in the afternoon to tour the city as a group. Mother Bea kindly took us through the red light district to introduce us to the prosties (prostitutes). She actually had no idea what she was taking us through, but luckily we walked through 3 blocks full of at least 30 hookers. It was amazing to see, not that I was considering their services, but their forwardness was outstanding. They definitely dont tiptoe around their work, and will approach, touch, and do what ever they need to do to make the sale businesswomen. We left the prostitute block and continued on our.
Most of the day was unfortunately plagued by rain, so the walk wasnt all that pleasant, and it truly seemed a lot longer than it was. The best part during the walk through the different historical buildings was when a prostitute mooned one of our group members. Prostitutes are like ghosts when it comes to cameras, in that once a camera is spotted, they duck into corners and allies to avoid being seen. Our dear friend Knobs however caught one of the whooooars off guard. Startled and cornered, the prostie did the only thing she had left in her arsenalmooned the camera. Somehow Knobs didnt get the shot and we are all deeply disappointed in his efforts. Knobs-0 Whoar-1. (More on them later)
Eventually our tour guide (who looked like Christian Bale, but was a woman) took us to a cool modern apartment with a glass elevator to the top of the city. It was actually a really remarkable view from the roof of this building, and plenty of pictures were taken, including the ever so popular O-H-I-Os, which turned out horrible
The walk finally ended and we broke free to explore the city, and by explore the city I basically mean hunt for more prostitutes. Intrigued by their fear of cameras, we made it our mission to snap a few good candid shots as we walked through their territory. Needless to say, it was a daunting task that was not fully achieved. We walked through the red-light district and tried to snag some hip side nonchalant shots as if we were just moseying on through the shots turned out poor, and some grew wise to our scheme and started following us. We packed up our cameras as quick as we could and briskly walked out of the red-light district to ditch the tailing mack-daddies (the things I do for the blog fan)
Dinner wasawful. We went to an Asian run pizza shop close to our hotel, and its safe to say, Asians dont know pizza. Spent from the long hunt earlier that day, and full of some form of pizza, we called it a night and hunkered down for our first night sleep in Genoa.
The next day we woke up early for yet another boring walk. While the walks are beautiful, it is tough to pay attention to the details we are exploring having just departed Venice, and seeing about 100 churches within the past week or two. Pictures do not do most of these places justice and I am very fortunate to have seen them first hand Moving on.
The rest of the day was spent exploring more of the city with Andrew, Knobs, and Domepiece. The day went pretty smooth, minus the 12 euro I lost in dice (Im still way up no worries). We got lunch at this sweet kebab place (gyro place) run by the NY-Indian-Guy. He had family in the Bronx and spoke pretty good English, AND knew how to make a pretty mean kebab. I will return. After lunch we made our way up the coast to find the free contemporary art museum. It was worth every penny. The museum was actually very beautiful if you are partial to the contemporary art world (which I am now apparently) and we ended up spending two and a half hours inside judging pull out partition walls full of art.
The walk back along the coast couldnt have been more pleasant. The weather was amazing, 80s lush blue skies, and colossal slow rolling clouds amidst the coast. I saw my first Ferrari of Genova, a red Ferrari 355, driving along the coast lucky d-bag. The walk took 30 minutes, and we all were pretty tired, so we laid low in the hotel for an hour or so milking all the internet we could (10 days without it is pretty hard), then made our way to our third OSU dinner.
This dinner was BY FAR the worst dinner someones ever me, or even forcefully ate for that matter. We went to this crappy little seafood joint tangled somewhere in one of the slummiest places Genova has to offer. The whole dinner was disastrous. First, the guy sitting adjacent to us kept staring at me with each bite he took, with eyes that looked ready to pop out of his head at any moment (dunno what the hell his deal was). Second, our waiter smelled like the ripest BO anyone has ever smelt which jumped my appetite to an all time high. Third, the restaurant somehow managed to mess up pasta with Pesto sauce (Genova is known for its pesto; it originated here). Fourth, the fried seafood we had was the worst tasting seafood of the trip thus far (fingers crossed), and the shrimp heads tasted like some sort of nasty salsa. Fifth, lastly, I got stuck next to the door of the restaurant so every 2 minutes I would get bumped by some unlucky person trying to get in to sample this heinous cuisine. What a night, thanks OSU.
We spent the rest of the night exploring and taking some night shots of the city for our travel log. I didnt feel very safe, and felt that someone would definitely help my wallet disappear at any moment. The funniest part of the night was watching a Spanish guy getting arrested by the Caribinieri (form of Italian police) for peeing in public. He was wasted, peeing in the door of his own car with friends whistling to stop because of the fuzz approaching, whata stand up guy. The nightlife in Genova is nuts. The streets just fill; literally fill, with drunk bodies everywhere. With cameras on us, we decided it was best not to stop at the bars and made our way home juking prostitutes as we went. I cant wait to fall asleep tonight, Im exhausted. The arguing Indian guys outside our window dont seem to care, so wish me luck.

Nevertheless, we show that klofibrat lead to erectile dysfunction (impotence) in almost 14% of patients
Mechanism of action gipolipidemicheskih on the potency of drugs is associated with declining availability of cholesterol for the synthesis of testosterone. In addition there accelerated decommissioning androgens.
New gipolipidemicheskie drugs - inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methyl glyutar Coenzyme A reductase (lovastatin, pravastatin, simvastatin) - lead to erectile dysfunction (impotence) for reasons not entirely clear. Dose reduction is accompanied by the elimination of adverse manifestations.
Klofibrat:
Shape of release: capsules.
What is Klofibrat: preparation, correcting lipid metabolism. Reduces elevated levels of lipids in the plasma by reducing the fraction LPONP and LPOP saturated triglycerides. In the liver klofibrat increases metabolism, inhibits the release of hepatic lipoproteins (in particular LPONP), activates lipoproteinlipazu in adipose tissue and increases the excretion of neutral sterols in faeces. Klofibrat increase cholesterol in bile, and improves tolerance to glucose, lowers blood viscosity.

Against the backdrop of taking the medication may develop arrhythmias. In the course of treatment requires regular medical supervision. The composition of lipoproteins of blood should be monitored every 2-3 months. It should also control the function of the gall bladder, liver and pancreas, peripheral blood picture. At the same time klofibrat appointment strengthens the effects of indirect anticoagulants, should therefore reduce their initial dose in the treatment dose anticoagulants correcting according to the value of prothrombin time.
Lovastatin:
Shape of production: tablets.
What is Lovastatin:  Inhibits the synthesis of cholesterol in the liver at the stage mevalonovoy acid. Lowers cholesterol, TG, and LPNP LPONP blood; moderately increases the content of HDL, with antiaterogennym action.
Indications: giperlipoproteinemii not correcting a special diet and physical activity.
How should I take Lovastatin: initial dose - 10-20 mg 1 every day during the evening meal. If necessary, increase the dose of 1 every 4 weeks. The maximum daily dose - 80 mg, in 1 or 2 reception (during breakfast and dinner).

Simvastatin:
What is Simvastatin: simvastatin - this means the reduction of cholesterol content. He is the inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methyl glutaril koenzima A (HMG-CoA) reductase, an enzyme involved in the formation of cholesterol in the liver. Simvastatin reduces the concentration of total cholesterol, low density lipoproteins cholesterol (LPNP) and triglycerides. Cholesterol content is very low density lipoproteins (LPONP) also decreases, while the cholesterol content of high density lipoproteins (HDL) is increased moderately. In addition simvastin has a number of other positive effects, including improved endothelial function (the inner layer of blood vessels), the drug also has antioxidant effect and inhibits the migration and proliferation of cells in the atherosclerotic process. Simvastatin also promotes gallstone dissolution.

In most cases, this increase of small and clinically insignificant, but still recommended to determine the content of the liver enzymes in serum before treatment and regular monitoring during treatment. If the levels of transaminases in serum increased more than 3 times on top of standards, the treatment should be interrupted. Particular caution should be exercised when simvastatin designate patients that regularly consume large amounts of alcohol and / or liver diseases in history. Women of reproductive age who do not have a reliable contraceptive is not recommended Vazilip. Research the safety and effectiveness of simvastatina in children and adolescents under the age of 18 have not yet been carried out.
Simvastatin may cause increasing muscle enzyme kreatinkinazy usually clinically insignificant, but in rare cases can develop miopatiya. Miopatiya manifest as a significant increase in the content of this enzyme (more than 10 times on the normal rate), pain, stiffness and muscular weakness. In the most severe cases can develop rabdomioliz (disintegration of muscle tissue). This can lead to acute renal failure. The risk of developing miopatii higher for those patients who used simvastatin concurrently with drugs that increase levels of serum simvastatina or reinforcing their effects. The risk of developing miopatii also higher in patients with severe renal insufficiency. Should pay attention to the increased activity in the differential diagnosis kreatinfosfokinazy zagrudinnoy pain.

From the novel Death Revokes the Offer –
This is what I do when I’m not selling real estate.
The book is available on Amazon
Chapter 1 – Part 21
Instead of children, Hillary marched into the house trailing the latest look. She was dressed in tiny yellow Candie’s slides, white Capri slacks and a tight yellow tube top that displayed her latest investment to full advantage. I braced myself for the invariable look that thin, well molded women give me when we meet, the look that says; you are a food slut and obviously can’t control yourself and I am all about control and extreme sports and I am superior to you in every possible way.
I got the look, I returned it with my best dumb blond look, because if anything, I do spend a considerable amount of cash on my hair, so I feel justified appropriating the persona. I am a Salon Blond. Smart enough to pay for the look myself; smart enough not to let on that I am smart.
And we were off.
“I can’t believe dad let this place go, what’s in the kitchen?” She teetered past the devil mask collection, intent on more practical concerns. “Whirlpool?  Not even a sub-zero?  Honestly, how did he expect he could ever sell it?”
She opened the refrigerator and sighed. “Look at this, five cartons of Cooper ice cream.  He promised he was on a low cholesterol diet!” She shook her head and closed the door. “He was always sneaking around like that.”
Yes, but it wasn’t the ice cream that killed him in the end was it?  To my credit I did not say that out loud. But it was kind of funny. Mom mentioned his healthy habits as well; how he ate low fat, exercised and in public, ordered the low calorie alternative dishes. Made me wonder if my own mother wasn’t snarfing down raw cookie dough in the middle of the night. No, if she did, she’d have hips like mine.
Instead I said.  “I have buyers, are you still interested in selling?”
She shook her head.  “No, tell them to go away.  We’re keeping the house.”
Damn, double damn.

The King of terrors of Romance | Asses

When I was growing up, it was considered somewhat risqué to see a Tampon ad in a magazine, but I think weve gone way beyond that with Viagra, Cialis and condom commercials on television. I dont care how you try to clinically describe it, theres something embarrassing about listening to the dangers of a four hour erection, particularly when children are in the room. And please, I am certainly not a prude when it comes to sex but it seems there is an overt attempt to promote sexuality on television, in magazines or on the Internet. You cant seem to get away from it, particularly on MTV and other programs aimed at our youth. On radio, we have the shock jocks led by Howard Stern where it seems the sky is the limit. Even Homer and Marge Simpson have been shown getting it on.

Flanked by his sisters, Ashley Zapata, Stephanie Villalobos and Monica Murguia, and his mother, Maria Zapata, Gonzalo Zapata issued a statement about the trial to the media Wednesday. The family did not answer questions.

The statement:

Angie was my sister.

She was a member of our family. We loved her very much, and we will miss her every day. Every day and every night our mom has to deal with great pain of ... one of her babies being buried. Every day our siblings and I reach for the phone and realize well never hear her voice. Theres no answer anymore.

A part of our family is missing, stolen from us. Angie was 18, her life was just beginning. She was brave, she had guts, she had courage, and she was beautiful, fun and loving. She was our little sister.

Through the last week, weve watched as our sister Angie was lied about in court, angrily as the defense presented an image of my sister that wasnt true. Their strategy of tearing down my sister to make a monster look better will not work.

It is clear: Angie was our sister, an aunt and a daughter. Life was sometimes difficult for her, and we learned along with her to understand she was born a girl with a body that was wrong for her.

Above all else, she was honest. It took such courage to be who she was. She was strong, there was no reason to believe my sister was anything but strong and honest with everyone.

This week, we are deeply saddened as we witnessed graphic details about the last few minutes of my sisters life. A big brother is supposed to protect his little sister. It breaks my heart to think there was nothing I could do.

My sisters, Monica and Ashley, when they saw what this monster had done, they wanted to hold her, to comfort her and make her feel better. It was hard to realize nothing could have been done.

He stole something so precious from us.

Only a monster can look at a beautiful 18-year-old and beat her to death. This monster not only hit my sister, but continued to beat her head in over and over and over until her head was crushed in. He left her there to die.

ll (never) understand how angry we are at him and how much he has hurt us. This past week and half, weve seen attorneys working their hardest to seek justice for my sister. ...

We are grateful Colorado has tough laws that make it clear that attacking people because of anti-gender bias will be taken seriously. It will be prosecuted aggressively ... in Weld County.

...

In memory of Angie, we call on Colorados leaders to pass a federal hate crime law to protect everyone.

Justice was achieved. A message was sent loud and clear that crimes target ing LGBT will not be tolerated in Colorado ...

Remember her as we do, as a beautiful, wonderful, precious teenager. She would want us to remember the happy times in her life. And make the world a better place.

We will always love you Angie and we will always miss you, mija.

Thank you.
