If you had a neighbor who was a total douchebag, a fucking monster of a moron, whose head you might want to fuck without speaking to A monster of a moron with a slutty-looking fiancee of many, many years (no date in sight), and two teenage sons A guy who has been literally trying to get you imprisoned because he doesn't like living next to gay Would it be so bad to buy a couple of pregnancy tests, break open the packaging, snap in half the test like someone was mad at the result, and toss it into a corner of his yard where you know he would find it... where he would assume it was his fiancee's or one of his son's and cause family chaos... Would that be fair?

Cantor, Ex-Majority Leader, to Leave Congress Early Representative Eric Cantor, the Virginia Republican whose last day as House majority leader was Thursday, said on Friday that he would resign his seat effective Aug. 18 in hopes that his successor will be able to participate in the lame-duck session after the November elections. Mr. Cantor, 51, made the announcement in an op-ed article published on The Richmond Times-Dispatch website. He lost the Republican primary in his Northern Virginia district in June to David Brat, a little-known and more conservative candidate with Tea Party backing. The results shocked Washington and led to a shake-up in the House leadership after Mr. Cantor said he would resign as the No. 2 House Republican. He said he hoped to prevent an intraparty fight from festering in the months before the midterm elections. But the news that he would give up his seat early was a surprise. “It is vitally important that the constituents have a clear and strong voice during the consequential lame-duck session of Congress,” Mr. Cantor wrote in The Times-Dispatch. “The issues that will be considered during the lame-duck session this year will be crucial to the future of our country. These debates will continue into the new Congress, and the people of this district deserve to have their new voice representing them and engaging on their behalf.” Mr. Cantor, who has served in Congress for 14 years, said that he would ask Virginia’s Democratic governor, Terry McAuliffe, to call a special election for his seat on Nov. 4 — the same day as the general election — a move that would allow the winner to take Mr. Cantor’s seat immediately rather than wait for the next Congress to be seated in January. He would also enjoy the perks of Mr. Cantor’s seniority. Mr. McAuliffe told the newspaper that he was “heartsick” about Mr. Cantor’s loss because the state was losing a senior voice in Congress, but there was no indication whether he would honor the request for a special election.

Oh God, she's still a delusional mess! In a new interview with the San Francisco Examiner, Jackson talks about his upcoming part in Ryan Murphy’s HBO pilot about open relationships. Jackson, himself in sober recovery, will play a meth addict. Teasing the new HBO show, the actor, who has already appeared nude onstage, admits he has no caveats when it comes to getting naked for his HBO role "only" if it’s “germane to the story.” In September, Jackson filed for divorce. A month later, he publicly began dating a fellow actor. At the same time, Jackson shaved his head, grew a mustache and got Elvis Presley lyrics tattooed on his arm. The media labeled the drastic transition for the once clean-cut actor as a sign of a midlife crisis. “I have had quite a difficult and transitional year. Despite this newfound reputation as a 38-year-old bad boy, Jackson said settling down and raising a family is something he’s always wanted.“I have known I was going to be a dad as long as I can remember,” he said. Addressing the daily barrage of twitter and Instagram selfies Jackson has been posting of himself kissing his new boyfriend. Cheyenne tagged his latest selfies WeAreWellAwareHowAnnoyingWeAre

If you are in a monogamous relationship, why is that status so important to you? What do you gain by giving up all other guys who might want to have sex with you? How do you respond to those who believe gay male monogamy is "unrealistic" or seemed to be threatened by its very existence?

I just got a notice from the IRS stating that I owe taxes on some cancelled credit card debt from 2012. To be honest, I don't recall even receiving the 1099-C's from the CC companies, but I know that's irrelevant. What I'm trying to figure out is if I'm insolvent. In 2012, the credit card companies settled my debt. Also that same year, I sold my house through a short sale. I did not have to pay taxes on the cancelled debt from the house because of the Mortgage Debt Relief Act. Given that I did indeed OWN the house that year until it was sold in October 2012...could I claim insolvency for the cancelled CC debt (roughly 30k)?

A Ugandan court on Friday invalidated an anti-gay bill signed into law earlier this year, saying the measure is illegal because it was passed during a parliamentary session that lacked a quorum. The panel of five judges on the East African country's Constitutional Court said the speaker of parliament acted illegally when she allowed a vote on the measure despite at least three objections — including from the country's prime minister — over a lack of a quorum when the bill was passed on Dec. 20. "The speaker was obliged to ensure that there was a quorum," the court said in its ruling. "We come to the conclusion that she acted illegally." The ruling was made before a courtroom packed with Ugandans opposing or supporting the measure. Activists erupted in loud cheers after the court ruled the law is now "null and void." The anti-gay measure provided for jail terms of up to life for those convicted of engaging in gay sex. It also allowed lengthy jail terms for those convicted of the offenses of "attempted homosexuality" as well as "promotion of homosexuality." Frank Mugisha, a Ugandan gay leader, said the ruling Friday was a "step forward" for gay rights even though he was concerned about possible retaliation. Ugandan lawyer Ladislaus Rwakafuuzi, an attorney for the activists, said the ruling "upholds the rule of law and constitutionalism in Uganda." Lawyers and activists challenged the anti-gay law after it was enacted in February on the grounds that it was illegally passed and that it violated certain rights guaranteed in Uganda's constitution. The court ruled Friday that the activists' entire petition had been disposed of since the law was illegally passed in the first place. This means there will be no further hearings about the activists' argument that the anti-gay measure discriminated against some Ugandans in violation of the country's constitution. Nicholas Opiyo, a Ugandan lawyer who was among the petitioners, welcomed the ruling but said there is still a missed opportunity to debate the substance of the law. "The ideal situation would have been to deal with the other issues of the law, to sort out this thing once and for all," Opiyo said. A colonial-era law that criminalizes sex acts "against the order of nature," still remains in effect in Uganda, allowing for the continued arrests of alleged homosexual offenders, Opiyo said. Lawmakers will likely also try to reintroduce a new anti-gay measure, he said. Kosiya Kasibayo, a state attorney, said a decision had not been made on whether to appeal the ruling in the Supreme Court, Uganda's highest court. The anti-gay measure was enacted on Feb. 24 by Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni, who said he wanted to deter Western groups from promoting homosexuality among African children. Although the legislation has wide support in Uganda, it has been condemned in the West and rights groups have described it as draconian. The U.S., which wants the law repealed, has withheld or redirected funding to some Ugandan institutions accused of involvement in rights abuses. The ruling Friday may also win the Ugandan delegation a softer landing in the U.S. next week as it heads to Washington for a gathering led by President Barack Obama.

The endlessly fascinating world of HKN is not quite so fascinating anymore. Is this because there's just so much a person can take when it comes to the sorry state of affairs in the land of delusion? The name-calling is growing old and repetitive. The We Believe! mantra is becoming more and more transparent. And, well, honestly, just how many laughing gifs can a person stomach in one day? And then we have the subjects of this thread themselves. Unless one of them comes out or learns to act or finds some talent, the fact is that they will not be able to hold our attention much longer. Then again, one can always hope. Right?

“The greatest evil is not now done in those sordid ‘dens of crime’ that Dickens loved to paint. It is not done even in concentration camps and labour camps. In those we see its final result. But it is conceived and ordered (moved, seconded, carried, and minuted) in clean, carpeted, warmed and well-lighted offices, by quiet men with white collars and cut fingernails and smooth-shaven cheeks who do not need to raise their voices. Hence, naturally enough, my symbol for Hell is something like the bureaucracy of a police state or the office of a thoroughly nasty business concern.”

Ok, they were ladies "panties" but that shouldn't matter.%0D %0D I was visiting my Mother recently and she was sitting on the couch, smoking, eating Bugles, watching Wheel O'Fortune, and sewing. She is the tough broad-type and she also has a mild hoarding condition, meaning the house is severely cluttered, although you can walk through most rooms. %0D %0D Anyway, she was sitting there sewing her old cotton underwear. And she wasn't just patching a hole, she was replacing the worn-out cotton elastic waistband with the waistband of a pair of runnered pantyhose. She couldn't wear the panty hose anymore to work due to their raggedy condition and since she can't throw things away, she transplanted the pantyhose waistband onto the cotton underwear. %0D %0D I said Jesus Christ buy some fucking underwear, but she just smirked and said I didn't know anything. So I went to the store and bought her two 3 packs of women cotton underwear and when I gave them to her, she got mad and said it was none of my business and take them back to the store.%0D %0D When I tried to return the underwear, the clerk (female, saractic) refused to refund my money. She said they had been opened and I said oh no, my mother barely opened the bag that held the 2 packs of underwear. But the clerk said, "See, these underwears have been opened because this piece of tape has been reattached."%0D %0D I told her (screamed maybe) that nobody opened that underwear -not me and not my Mom. And I left the store (with the underwear) and now I'm confused and don't know what to do. %0D %0D Should I go back and ask for the manager or go back and confront that nasty clerk?

The tragic downing of MH17 brought forth instantaneous judgments, insinuations and accusations on the part of the highest of U.S. officials. This kind of careless and reckless shooting from the hip, based on little or no solid information, has been a characteristic of American leaders at least since George Bush’s propaganda campaign that launched the Iraq War. Whatever happened to careful measured assessments of situations? Whatever happened to maturity? Whatever happened to patience? Whatever happened to withholding judgment until facts could be ascertained? And, within government, whatever happened to the capacity of executive officials to listen to intelligence reports and interpret them with intelligence, as opposed to spinning stories without basis in fact? These all have fallen. Truth has fallen. Objective truth has fallen. What has risen in its place? The creation of false realities by the U.S. officials. They have discovered that they can produce fiat reality by their own words.

I broke my toe, and so I've been laid up the last 36 hours. I searched for some cool new music and found a couple of gems. Yes, they gave me Percocet. I narrowed down from 8 to 2. These were the two that blew me away- especially the video for the former, and the live Letterman appearance for the latter. The first is by Future Islands, "Seasons Change" and the song takes a few plays before you love it, but the video is jawdroppingly gorgeous and the dude is HAWWWTTT! They even show him without the cowboy hat. Dude is awesome sexy cowboy hot! The second is Kiesza. Inside.

In an intensive care unit in Memphis, a virus ravages the body of a 7-year-old who’s in heart and kidney failure. He vomits blood several times an hour as his family gathers in vigil. In a cabinet in Durham, North Carolina, there’s a drug that could likely help Josh Hardy, but the drug company won’t give it to him. They’re adamant that spending the time to help Josh and others like him will slow down their efforts to get this drug on the market. Helping Josh, they say, means hurting others. When asked how he will feel if Josh dies — and he’s in critical condition, so sadly that could happen soon — the president of the company that makes the drug doesn’t hesitate to answer. “Horrible,” said Kenneth Moch. He would feel horrible and heartbroken. But still, he said there’s no way he’s going to change his mind. There’s no way he’s going to give Josh this drug. ‘We’re begging them’ It’s called “compassionate use,” but sometimes it feels anything but compassionate. Here’s the way it works: According to the Food and Drug Administration, if someone has a serious or immediately life-threatening disease and has tried and failed other available treatments, they can ask a drug company for an experimental drug, one that they’re still studying and has not yet been approved by the FDA. Companies often say yes: The FDA approved 974 compassionate use arrangements in fiscal year 2013. But pharmaceutical companies often say no, as they did to Josh Hardy. “Our son will die without this drug,” said Todd Hardy, Josh’s father. “We’re begging them to give it to us.” So now, like many families, the Hardys have turned to the media, Facebook, and change.org to pressure the drug company to change its mind. Countless members of “Josh’s army” have responded with angry tweets to @chimerix, telling them to “open their hearts,” asking the executives how they can sleep at night. “Everyone is watching,” one tweeter warned the company. Others have tweeted out the e-mail addresses of the company’s board members. Chimerix executives say they’ve received physical threats. Moch, the company president, has read these tweets and said he is heartbroken, but the issue is complex and unsuitable for a 144-long character debate. At its very simplest, this is it: Chimerix is going full speed ahead to get the drug on the market hopefully by the end of 2016, and if they spend time and money on compassionate use cases, it would greatly hinder their effort to get the drug, brincidofovir, on the market and available to everyone. The company would have to dish out $50,000 per compassionate-use patient, since insurance doesn’t usually pay for experimental drugs, Moch said. And perhaps even more important than the money, it would divert manpower in this 50-person company, since they’d have to handle the requests and then get the patient’s records and follow up with them, as required by the FDA. “If this were just one patient wanting this drug, then this would be a very different question,” he said. “But it’s yes to all or no to all.” From 2009 to 2012, the company did give out the drug under compassionate use to 451 patients, Moch said, but at least at that time, the information gleaned from those 451 compassionate use patients was helpful to the Chimerix study and helped move the science along. But currently doctors don’t really learn very much, if anything, from compassionate use patients, so the patients don’t help get the drug to market. Beat cancer four times Josh’s journey began when he was diagnosed with a rare form of kidney cancer at 9 months old. Over the years, cancer turned up in his thymus, lung, and bone marrow, and each time Josh beat it. But a bone marrow transplant left Josh without much of an immune system, and in February doctors diagnosed him with an adenovirus that spread through his body. They gave him an antiviral drug, an intravenous form of brincidofovir, but it ravaged his kidneys.

I thought of this because over on the Poseidon Adventure thread someone wrote the following:- "Maybe there needs to be a movie about a gay cruise that gets caught in a storm and starts sinking in stormy weather." Could anyone pull it off? Done well it could be hilarious...as long as everyone survives. It's about time there was a really funny gay movie. The only one I can even think of is La Cage Aux Folles. Trouble is, people are so offended by stereotypes and there'd have to be stereotypes.

BY DANIEL REYNOLDS/OUT TRAVELER In the past decade, neighborhoods like the Castro and Chelsea have experienced a sizable drop in gay and lesbian residents. Historic gay neighborhoods are flying fewer rainbow flags than in previous years. A new study, led by sociologist Amin Ghaziani of the University of British Columbia, finds that U.S. districts like the Castro in San Francisco, Boystown in Chicago, and Chelsea in New York have fewer same-sex couples than a decade beforehand, reports UBC News. Ghaziani’s statistics, which will be published in his book There Goes the Gayhorhood, show an 8 percent decrease in gay men and a 13 percent decrease in lesbians in these locations over this time. The research also demonstrates a rise in the number of heterosexual households in traditionally gay locales, which Ghaziani attributes to gentrification as well as rising acceptance of gays and lesbians in across the country. Conversely, gay people are flocking to traditionally straight neighborhoods, with small enclaves forming around select school districts. Ghaziani finds that LGBT households have cropped up across 93 percent of U.S. counties. While acknowledging that this shift in demographics is evidence of the progress of the LGBT rights movement in recent years, Ghaziani warns that the abandoning of “gayborhoods” could result in the loss of shared culture, community, and political clout. “Gay neighborhoods have been crucial to the struggle for freedom, and have produced globally important contributions, from politics, to poetry, to music, and fashion,” he said. “The growing acceptance of same-sex couples underlying these findings is extremely positive, but it is important that we continue to find meaningful ways to preserve these culturally important spaces.”
I always have, since I was a kid. Loved when the daytime talk shows like "Donahue" and "Geraldo" would have them on. Loved when the "exercise" magazines featured male dance troupes. I almost like men wearing almost nothing than nothing at all. I love finding converted to DVD old stripper videos. Yeah, the mes are greasy and long-haired (80s) and often straight (though I don't always believe that every troupe is sooo straight and there are no gay men. Come on.) Weirdly, nowadays it seems like more and more male dancers have their dancers just in small posing straps with a full back. Makes no difference as it's still hot but anybody know why this is?

We saw it again this past week with the Washington Post's inimitable Dana Milbank writing a column July 4th suggesting that perhaps the Obama presidency might benefit from the Democrats losing their Senate majority. But for Obama, while yes, he would be recorded as he first African-American president, he would also be remembered for having lost a House majority in 2010(his first midterm election) and the Senate majority in 2014(his 2nd midterm).... a fairly inauspicious record with the Affordable Care Act credited as having assisted in the play.
Germany has decided its gold is safe in American hands. Surging mistrust of the euro during Europe’s debt crisis fed a campaign to bring Germany’s entire $141 billion gold reserve home from New York and London. Now, after politics shifted in Chancellor Angela Merkel’s coalition, the government has concluded that stashing half its bullion abroad is prudent after all. “The Americans are taking good care of our gold,” Norbert Barthle, the budget spokesman for Merkel’s Christian Democratic bloc in parliament, said in an interview. “Objectively, there’s absolutely no reason for mistrust.” Ending talk of repatriating the world’s second-biggest gold reserves removes a potential irritant in U.S.-German relations. It’s also a rebuff to critics including the anti-euro Alternative for Germany party, which says all the gold should return to Frankfurt so it can’t be impounded to blackmail Germany into keeping the currency union together. The Bundesbank, Germany’s central bank, sent a delegation to the New York Fed’s vault in 2012 for spot checks on the hoard. As the gold’s guardian, the Frankfurt-based Bundesbank is obliged to ensure its safety. It says it’s sensible to store part of the reserves outside the country so they can be swapped more easily for foreign currency in an emergency. Germany’s election in September hastened the shift when the Free Democratic Party, which flirted with bringing the gold home, dropped out of Merkel’s coalition and was replaced by the Social Democrats. Other supporters included Philipp Missfelder, a member of Merkel’s Christian Democratic Union who quit as her government’s envoy for relations with the U.S. in April. Juergen Hardt, his successor, signaled a change of position.

Oh, the sad, sad Republican party and their pathetic attempts to discredit the administration are once again foiled. In recent weeks we have watched a number of right-wing manufactured scandals drown in seas of facts. It was very entertaining, to say the least. First, the hopes of the Republicans to impeach Obama with Benghazi-gate were dashed. And, of course, Fox was being unfairly targeted by Obama with the Rosen scandal. Then Umbrella-gate was quelled almost as fast as it rose. After umbrella-gate, we had the stupidest of them all…..Salute-gate. Finally, the scandal that got Republican’s tinfoil panties in a bunch? The targeting of Tea Party groups by Obama’s liberal IRS hit squad out of Cincinnati. Oh yes, President Obama was targeting his political enemies by denying them the 501(c)(4) tax exemption that they so rightfully don’t deserve! How dare he do that?! After all, the conservative groups that were targeted for extra scrutiny were not, first and foremost, political organizations! Those Tea Party groups operate exclusively for social welfare; they are upstanding nonprofit organizations that spend little time lobbying for the right-wing. Right? Oh no, that’s wrong, but in the minds of members of the Republican party who really care about those pesky fact-thingys? This was definitely an elaborate scheme by the left to silence the right. Those IRS agents were liberal, no doubt about it, and the transcripts of the investigation recently released will prove it. Representative Elijah Cummings, the top Democrat on the House of Representatives Oversight and Government Reform Committee conducting the probe into the ‘scandal,’ told CNN’s “State of the Union” program, said just that: “He [the IRS manager] is a conservative Republican working for the IRS. I think this interview and these statements go a long way toward showing that the White House was not involved in this. Based upon everything I’ve seen, the case is solved. And if it were me, I would wrap this case up and move on.” Wait a second…….he, the main agent involved, was a conservative? That can’t be right! That has to mean that this was in no way politically motivated. A Republican wouldn’t go after its own. So why did he do it? John Shafer, the IRS manager, told the Oversight Committee that he and another employee set aside applications from groups with “Tea Party” and “patriot” in their names because granting them tax-exempt status could set a new precedent for the IRS. In other words, he was just doing the job he is paid to do, to make sure that groups are not wrongfully receiving an exempt status they do not deserve. It should also be noted that, so far, no conservative groups have come forward to say they were denied the tax-exemption. Of course, Republicans will surely say that the manager is not a Republican. He is an undercover Democrat. Or his party affiliation proves nothing, he could still have been working in cahoots with the president. Except that investigators asked him if this was a scheme by the White House to target conservative groups and he said: “I do not believe that the screening of these cases had anything to do, other than consistency and identifying issues that needed to have further development,” the manager answered, according to a transcript released by Cummings. Asked if he believed the White House was involved, the manager replied: “I have no reason to believe that.” There you have it, folks. One more right-wing, tinfoil hate scandal totally debunked. Certainly we will hear Fox News relaying all of this information to their listening audience later. I’m sure they’ll want to set the record straight, right? HAHAHA!!! No, more than likely we will hear crickets from the mainstream media. Republican attack dog, Darrell Issa, is already saying this proves nothing. Of course it doesn’t! Republicans will, no doubt, continue to waste our money investigating a fairy tale just as they always do and, at this point do, we expect anything less?

Q. What is an 'Economic Stimulus' payment ? A. It is a check that the federal government sends to taxpayers. Q. Where will the government get this money ? A. From taxpayers. Q. So the government is giving me back my own money ? A. Only a smidgen of it. Q. What is the purpose of this payment ? A. The plan is for you to use the money to purchase a high-definition TV set, thus stimulating the economy. Q. But isn't that stimulating the economy of China ? A. Shut up. Below is some helpful advice on how to best help the U.S. economy by spending your stimulus check wisely: * If you spend the stimulus money at Wal-Mart, the money will go to China or Sri Lanka . * If you spend it on gasoline, your money will go to the Arabs. * If you purchase a computer, it will go to India, Taiwan or China. * If you purchase fruit and vegetables, it will go to Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala... * If you buy an efficient car, it will go to Japan or Korea. * If you purchase useless stuff, it will go to Taiwan. * If you pay your credit cards off, or buy stock, it will go to management bonuses and they will hide it offshore. Instead, keep the money in America by: 1) Spending it at yard sales, or 2) Going to ball games, or 3) Spending it on hustlers/escorts, or 4) Beer, or 5) Tattoos. (These are the only American businesses still operating in the U.S. ) Conclusion: Go to a ball game with a tattooed hustler/escort whom you met at a yard sale and drink beer all day ! No need to thank me, I'm just glad I could be of help.

A poster on the "Poppy Bush" thread asked me to start a new thread about the CIA links between the JFK murder, Bush 1&2, Clinton and Obama. Just to deflect any trolls from calling me a "Freeper" and accusing me of slandering the Dems, do not forget- Bush Sr was the director of the CIA, and was chosen for Reagan (against his better judgment) as Veep. It was "choose Bush as VP, or else"! Let's focus on the current administration and work our way back. There is substantial circumstantial evidence that Obama's mother, grandmother, father, and stepfather were all CIA operatives. Since the CIA never comments on current or former agents, and is highly secretive about everything, confirming the evidence is a futile exercise. His mother, Ann Dunham, worked for several CIA front companies. His bio-dad worked for a CIA funded anti-commie group that trained Africans to fight the USSR. His stepdad, Lolo, was an operative in Indonesia, and helped stage a coup of the president. His grandmother, Madelyn, worked for a CIA controlled bank in Hawaii that laundered money for the CIA. His mom and dad met in a Russian language course...run by the CIA. All of these assertions can be confirmed with a quick Google search. Free country? Only if you're a complacent, ignorant tool.

R54 of the Phyllis McGuire thread got me wondering about all the famous women pre-Roe vs Wade who remained childless, despite multiple marriages and expressed desire for children. Were most of them really messed up from bad/multiple abortions? Some, like Jane Russell, ended up adopting children. What other Old Hollywood/Broadway/DC insider women were rumored to have visited illegal chop shops that destroyed their reproductive systems? Well-known heiresses count, too. Spill, DL!

Since the news broke last week, the size and scope of the IRS investigations has gotten bigger. At least 471 groups have come forward with proof that they were targeted with "non-standard" paperwork, liberal organization ProPublica has revealed that they were given confidential files on "Tea Party" groups, at least 3 offices have been positively identified as working together on the anti-TP project, and today it was revealed that the administration was made aware of this scandal in JUNE, 2012. Now, imagine that this was a Republican administration. If you defend this kind of systematic, systemic and sinister abuse of government power then you cannot be surprised or outraged when the "Other Side" uses the same tactics to target progressive groups. Unless this scandal is fully investigated, and all involved- up to the executive level- are tried, convicted and imprisoned for gross abuse of power, then it will happen again.

US: Equality Michigan petitions to end Michfest’s “womyn born womyn” intention 29th July 2014, 10:06 PM, Katie Dupere Equality Michigan is petitioning to end Michfest's transgender exclusion policy Equality Michigan has started an online petition asking the Michigan Womyn’s Music Festival to end their “womyn born womyn” intention that excludes transgender women from the event. In May, festival founder Lisa Vogel wrote an open letter on the issue, stating: “We have said that this space, for this week, is intended to be for womyn who were born female, raised as girls and who continue to identify as womyn. “This is an intention for the spirit of our gathering, rather than the focus of the festival. It is not a policy, or a ban on anyone … We do not and will not question anyone’s gender.” “Rather, we trust the greater queer community to respect this intention, leaving the onus on each individual to choose whether or how to respect it.” The Equality Michigan’s petition states: “[W]e reject the premise that transgender women are lesser than, we reject that this belief is a tenet of feminism, and we will no longer respect the ‘intention’ or that ‘leaving the onus on each individual to choose whether or how to respect it’ equates to inclusion.” The petition goes on to say: “[T]he reality is that the lesbian, gay, and bisexual community cannot stand by any longer and pretend that any form of transgender discrimination can be painted over as a feminist or progressive issue.” The petition demands ending the “womyn-born-womyn” intention, asks Vogel to meet with leaders of the transgender community, and asks artists participating this year speak against the policy while on stage. The petition also asks for a boycott of the festival until the intention ends, and states any future artists or vendors participating in the event will be complicit in anti-trans discrimination. The festival will be from August 5 to 10.
When it was The Closer the cases were interesting and well written. Now it is more soap opera...but I love the home drama...any of you watching?
Two developments are occurring simultaneously: women are rejecting the female role, and life is being created in the laboratory. Unless the structure is totally transformed, we can expect that when women no longer function as biological breeders we will be expendable. As men learn more and more to control reproduction, as cloning becomes a reality, and as the technology of computers and robots develop, there is every reason to think that men as we know them will use that control and technology to create the sex objects that will gratify them. Men, after all, nave throughout history resorted to gynocide as a stratagem of social control, as a tactical way of attaining/maintaining power. That is the simple, compelling reality. There are only two other options: women must seize power, or we must accomplish the transformation into androgyny.

It's kind of a shame that there's no gay exploitation film subgenre - so here's one I've made up. (Since imaginary films are less bound by budget concerns than real ones, it has quite a name cast). 3 lowlife criminals (Jamie Bell, Daniel Radcliffe and Jack O'Connell) kidnapp a business tycoon's son (Logan Lerman, though I also like one of the Sprouse twins as a casting alternative) in order to extract money. Bell is the cold sociopathic leader, O'Connell the boisterous hot-headed thug, and Radcliffe, while still quite ruthless, is the most "normal" of the gang, and more of a follower. They hold him captive in a hideaway house, always wearing bandanas. The way they treat him is marked by class resentment. In addition, O'Connell calls him "pretty boy", saying things like "He reminds me of that kid who was put in our cell, remember? We had a lot of fun with him", then asking him "Would you like to know what we did to him?". Bell tells him not to touch him, though. But when Bell and Radcliffe leave O'Connell alone with him the next day, they return to find Lerman bent over a table, crying, with his pants down at his feet, as O'Connell, with his back to them, is doing up his belt and cheerfully saying "You were awesome, baby - my dick's in pieces". Bell gets angry with him at first, but then, to Lerman's horror, decides that now that he's been "defiled" already, there's not much harm in him and Radcliffe having a turn too. So they rape him as well. They position themselves on both sides of him, and Bell makes him suck his cock as Radcliffe fucks him in the ass; then finally fucks him too. From now on Lerman is regularly raped, both anally and orally, by all 3 (seen in a montage sequence of facial closeups, with some shots of grimy hands on clean ones, or grabbing shoulders or hair, thrown in). One day as Radcliffe is fucking him from the front, Lerman reaches up and tears the bandana from his face, then French-kisses him (making him cum on the spot). He tells the baffled Radcliffe that he's come to enjoy the sex with him - much as he hates it with the other two - and has even fallen for him. He goes on to say that he hates his father, who plans to disinherit him, and that he wants Radcliffe to kill his partners once they have the ransom, then set off with him. Once he's processed it all Radcliffe agrees to it. The next day, when they're having sex again, Radcliffe is being tender and gentle with him, but Lerman tells him that he wants it rough like before - so Radcliffe slaps him and gives it to him hard, leading them both to noisy orgasms. Afterwards, Lerman tells him that he doesn't want to have sex with the other 2 again, and begs him to protect him from them. But Radcliffe explains he can't do that, as it would raise too much suspicion. When he leaves the room, Bell is already waiting outside, entering as he leaves. The door closes behind Bell saying "Hands and knees, bitch." Finally the ransom money is dropped. The transfer works to plan, and the 3 take it back to the hideaway. On arrival, O'Connell says he wants to have some more fun with Lerman while he has the chance (it's unclear if they're planning to release or kill him). When he's gone, Bell calmly tells Radcliffe that he's been planning to get rid of O'Connell for a while, and now would be a good opportunity. Radcliffe takes up the suggestion - but not before shooting Bell himself first. Then he enters the room where O'Connell is doing Lerman from behind, both kneeling on the floor. When O'Connell sees him he says that he can use the boy's mouth. Radcliffe steps up in front of Lerman. When O'Connell, his voice already strained, says "Open your mouth, you whore", Radcliffe shoots him in the head. Afterward Lerman, still on his knees, starts caressing, then fellating, Radcliffe's gun. Finally he opens his fly and gives him a blowjob. Radcliffe is nearing orgasm (closeup on his face), and just as he says "I'm gonna cu..", Lerman blows his brains out from below with his own gun. Then he takes off with the money, leaving the 3 corpses of his kidnappers behind.

Orlando Bloom got in Justin Bieber's face early Wednesday morning in Ibiza ... and Justin fled the restaurant -- and one eyewitness says Orlando threw a punch. The eyewitness tells TMZ ... Orlando was in Cipriani restaurant which was packed with celebs, including Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan and Diddy. Listen closely as you watch the video. It sounds like Justin, in the middle of a shoving match, screams, "What's up bitch?" You don't see Orlando swing, but the eyewitness tells us that's exactly what happened. And we're told when Bieber left the crowd applauded. The backstory is almost legendary ... Justin partied with Orlando's then-wife Miranda Kerr after a 2012 Victoria's Secret fashion show in NYC and they got very VERY close. And in April of this year, Orlando was hanging out with Justin's on-and-off GF Selena Gomez. So the bad blood is flowing.
When "NYPD Blue" premiered in 1993, I thought a new moon had arisen, and that we would begin to see bare butts all over primetime television. Alas, no. On cable shows, certainly. But while network TV seems to be more forgiving (for better or for worse) of language that was once considered inappropriate for the broadcast airwaves, nudity still appears to be frowned upon. Why is that so? And let's discuss the nudity that has appeared on network TV, including that prior to 1993. What are your favorite examples?
can people tell where you're from? (I mean from your accent, obviously). To my English ears...there also seems to be a non-regional generic American accent that can be heard all over the country...the one that sounds sort of Irish. Also, does your accent give clues as to your social class?

I've been wondering whether this movie will be a big flop, or a mega hit. Well, this trailer makes me think the latter. If it is half a funny, half as exciting and half as stylish as this trailer it will be a HUGE HIT. Marvel is doing it right.
... sorry if this has been asked before. I've been taking a widely available probiotic product (not the kind you have to refrigerate) for about 3+ months. I don't feel like it's done much for me, so I graduated to a more expensive, refrigerated brand that touts 1,000s of live strains. I don't know much about that, but I'm on day two (that's two capsules ...) and wondering if it's normal for a while to feel like you've gotta poop all the time? Is there an adjustment period for this stuff for most people? Thanks in advance
When this popped up on my FB feed I realized I have finally had it with servers blogging and reblogging about how we should treat them. What other profession does this? Or would be allowed to? It's non-stop lately. Another thing - we KNOW our tips pay your salaries. Harping on it after demanding us to treat you exactly how you prefer to be treated (you know, like we all get to do at our jobs) is not really helping your cause. Trust me.
FX does it again! The premiere tonight was killer.

He was unequivocally outed by that Hollywood madam last year. Did any mainstream media (even The National Enquirer) pick up on that story, or did it remain restricted to a couple of gossip websites?
Not in the USA
I find this guy so erotic, my nethers tingle when I see his name, and they pulsate when I see his face. I didn't realize until recently (lack of watching the major networks) that he had left ABC for CNN. He didn't have a child until he reached his 40s, and he keeps his personal life very private. But his tweets are often hilarious! And he's apparently very intelligent and talented. For some reason he pings my dar, even though he's apparently married. Is he gay, bi, hitched to a beard (a la McConnaughey)? I seriously doubt he's a 0 on the Kinsey scale. Anybody run into him in NYC? Is he as hot in person as on the small screen? Spill it, please!
Sorry new fangirls, but this show was destroyed once they brought on that 'Blossom' chick and insisted that every male character HAD to have a female counterpart to make them relevant. 'Big Bang Theory' Contract Negotiations Have Officially Delayed Season 8: The Bazinga is officially on us. CBS' continued failure to reach contract agreements with the stars of "The Big Bang Theory" is officially delaying the start of production for Season 8, reports E! News. In a statement, "TBBT's" production company, Warner Bros. TV, said, "Due to ongoing contract negotiations, production on The Big Bang Theory -- which was originally scheduled to begin today (July 30) -- has been postponed." The stars of the show, Jim Parsons, Johnny Galecki, Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting, Simon Helberg and Kunal Nayyar, are reportedly all seeking substantial raises, with Parsons, Galecki and Cuoco-Sweeting looking for something in the $1 million per episode range. CBS, who has already renewed the series through Season 10, recently told reporters that they were confident an agreement could be met, with Chairman of Entertainment Nina Tassler saying, "These deals manage to get done somehow miraculously year after year," according to Access Hollywood. If only CBS had a real Sheldon Cooper do the negotiations. His roommate agreement contract is pretty ironclad. The good news is that despite the production delay, the Season 8 premiere date hasn't been pushed back ... yet, anyway.
[italic]Researchers in the US studied 36 dogs and found that most were indifferent when their owners ignored them and read aloud from a children's pop-up book. But when the owners showered their attention on a stuffed dog – or even played with a bucket with a face painted on the side – the dogs' behaviour changed dramatically. Video footage showed that when owners petted the stuffed toy, which barked and wagged its tail for effect, their dogs growled more and sometimes snapped and forced their way between the toy and their owner. A quarter of the dogs snapped at the stuffed animal, while only one snapped at the book and the bucket.[/italic] LOL

7/31/2014 from IDOLATOR.COM: [italic]The black cat‘s out of the bag: Over six years after her last studio album, Discipline, Janet Jackson is working on a follow-up to her 2008 record. (!!!) In an interview with studio speaker company Barefoot Sound, vocal producer and engineer Ian Cross confirmed what many of Miss Jackson’s devoted fans have been waiting to hear ever since the conclusion of her Number Ones, Up Close and Personal Tour in 2011: Janet’s back in the recording studio, and she’s been working for a while now. “Janet [Jackson] and I had a little bit more of a special relationship because we became friends naturally,” Cross told Barefoot of their ongoing working relationship. “You meet a lot of people and you become friends with a couple of them, but sometimes there is one person you become really good friends with…She asked me to work on an album with her called Discipline in 2007 and, again, just do the same thing, produce the vocals. That led to her hiring me full-time to work with her. That’s where I’m at now.” The producer, who also helped to engineer Janet’s past three studio albums (Damita Jo, 20 Y.O. and Discipline), also confirmed that the upcoming record has been a particularly global experience this time around: “The Janet Jackson’s of the world can’t just spend their time in one studio in one city anymore…we’ve been working in Qatar. We’ve been working in Paris, the Middle East, and now we feel like we can work anywhere.” And as for what to expect? “The new album is going to be great. It’s a process. There’s a lot in store, yet to come. I can’t go into too many details but I think Janet Jackson’s fans are going to be very excited about the new album, and I think people who don’t know her as fans are going to be excited about it, too.” So excited, indeed.[/italic] ....and to the haters, the naysayers and everyone else who swore she was retired and that there was no new album coming? You can sit now.

So I met him just before Christmas and he is kind and considerate. I am a total bottom and he is an especially well endowed top. He said he loved me and I said it back. I do love him. He lost his job in January and needed a place so he moved in. He makes all of my meals, cleans every thing. He gets a meager benefits check, and spends it on gifts for me (but not groceries or anything useful). He has become needy, calling me 'pookie bear' (even in front of people and he uses baby talk in bed. He actually said "Pookie? I wuv you to much!! Can I put my wee-wee in your poo-poo hole?" Needless to say, my attraction has worn off and he complains about the lack of sex. A few weeks ago I was out with some friends and I met a man. I went back to his place and he has a nice old house and a pool. We took a swim and had some drinks. He grabbed my shoulders and said 'Christ! I want to fuck you!' and I said 'Then do!' I came home and all was fine. Then this Friday my BF and I were out with some friends. My BF wanted someone's phone number so I gave him my phone and told him it was in my contacts... well he saw a text from the guy referring to what a 'hot fuck' I am and could we meet again. Right there in the bar, at the table with our friends, he blurted 'Did you cheat on me?' Emboldened by a few drinks I replied nonchalantly. 'Yes I did'. He began to cry... not quiet tears and not sobbing, but I love Lucy style WAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH! and left the bar, still crying. I chose not to return home that night, opting instead for a good fuck at the other man's house. When I came home the next day, he was gone and the neighbor told me she'd heard him bawling his eyes out until 4 AM. His stuff was still there so I took a nap and knew I would have to deal with this, bracing myself for a fight. He came in at noon with a 50 inch screen TV. He made me promise not to cheat again unless it's a threesome... and I had to let him put his 9 inch pee-pee in poo-poo hole while I tried not to fall asleep. Now I'm just thinking of all the fun I'll have getting him to buy me a car!
in places like Kansas City and Denver, not LA where you would expect. Where do others live?
This singer was considered a pretty boy. To keep his hair gleaming, he used to apply baby oil on his curls. He struggled when he first came to Hollywood. So much so, that he started prostituting himself out to men and women. When business got slow, he could be found in the backseat of cars or on his knees outside gay clubs (in the parking lots) giving fellatio. When his group released a hit record. He expected a big royalty check, didn't happen, instead, he continued tricking. He was a giver and receiver. Around this time, he was often seen around Muscle Beach aka Venice Beach. He enjoyed checking out the sculptured well oiled bodies of the weight lifters. He developed a severe drug habit, all of his money would soon go for drugs. He started stealing from rich customers and got blackballed as an male escort. He also became arrogant and fell out with group members, although they recorded a few more hit singles. He would slip off the radar (over four years). When he returned to the scene, he was a functional addict who went back to prostituting. He got new customers and started turning tricks frequently. He also got married, his wife didn't know he was leading a double life. He would later die of AIDS. It sent shock waves through Black Hollywood. It's been overlooked on how many men and women he infected with the AIDS virus. Allegedly, according to our source, three black celebrities (men and women) have died (from his strain) but their deaths were reported as secondary illnesses related to AIDS and a few more celebrities are thought to be infected-their strain laid doormat for years, due to this, they are now on the cocktail. One particular black female singer has been sick over the last few years. Unbeknownst to the public, she was allegedly sexually involved with him but she's covering up her illness-by saying she has another ailment. She loved his pretty boy looks and enjoyed spoiling him. He was her exclusive gigolo. Who is this singer? Who is the female singer covering up her illness? No, they don't know either...

Here's an article about diva-of-the-moment Adele and her list of demands for her concerts. In addition to all the booze and junk food (surprise, surprise) she requires her room to be stocked with Malboro Lights. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't smoking a really, really bad thing for your throat and lungs? Given this is how she makes her living, I would have thought she'd have more sense than to damage her throat and lungs with cigarette smoke. This is a woman who has just cancelled a series of concerts because of throat problems. This seems insane to me, but apparently a lot of singers (or those, like Britney, who pass for singers in some circles) smoke.
I ordered it from Time-Life and it came last week. Great to revisit. Brian Wimmer (Boonie) always seemed a little gay. Season One is a bit light on the war and heavy on ploys like USO auditions (oh, Chloe Webb!)and Cherry looking for her brother. Season Two ramps up the darkness and makes it a better show. Marg Helgenberger was never a gorgeous beauty, she had a hard look (did she on "Ryan's Hope" as well?) but she looks better on "Beach" before the surgery. And Tim Ryan who palyed Natch (McMurphy's squeeze in Season One) was hot but he's vanished.

Met a guy on Grindr last night. (Should I post pic?) Anyway, he came over and had some ecstasy. Never tried it but he had me put it in my south mouth lol Holy fuck that's some good shit. We watched Enter the Void a bit on Netflix and i could t control myself. His cock was in my mouth within minutes. I felt so physically connected with him. He shot up some coke and I passed out. He woke me up and had made breakfast so that was cool. I asked him if I could buy some ecstasy from him but he said he'd just bring some more tonight. It's not too bad right? We're not talking meth right?

A friend of mine just got back from the Lake Como region, where she said her Italian friends all swear up and down that not only does everyone in the area know that George Clooney is gay (despite the engagement), but that he's had an affair for years with some sort of male psychiatrist or psychologist who practices in Florence. Have any of you heard about this before?
And you can also add ways in which you tried to hide the gay from people, when you were a kid.
It's 2000 - 5000 squatters are being evicted from the decrepit highrise.
It's on British TV now and has stirred up a fuss. Why? What's it about?
I was caught with a neighbor kid at five totally naked and feeling each other up. Our mothers freaked out - and I mean REALLY freaked out. We kept doing it to the point where we weren't allowed to see one another. We both had different stories as to what happened. We at one point actually kiss each other's cocks. I have no idea why. My mother's freaking out messed me up sexually later on and took a lot of time to get over it. I felt like a total perv because of it. Did any of you do sort of the same thing? And btw, not with an older guy. I know how many stories we've gotten on here about that. Did you get caught with the other kid? As far as I know, my friend didn't turn out to be gay. Me, on the other hand, turned out to be a big mo. We don't speak to one another, not because of what happened, it's just been so long.

“Not unless I write a story that requires it. You don’t hire people based on race. You hire people based on who is correct for the part.

U.S. Justice Ginsburg hits back at liberals who want her to retire By Joan Biskupic WASHINGTON Thu Jul 31, 2014 8:27pm EDT (Reuters) - U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has a message for liberals who have been saying the 81-year-old should step down while Democratic President Barack Obama is in office so he can appoint her successor: Who are you going to get who will be better than me? Referring to the political polarization in Washington and the unlikelihood that another liberal in her mold could be confirmed by the Senate, Ginsburg, the senior liberal on the nine-member bench, asked rhetorically, "So tell me who the president could have nominated this spring that you would rather see on the court than me?" Ginsburg, in a wide-ranging 75 minute interview with Reuters in her chambers late on Thursday, also acknowledged that President Barack Obama had invited her to a private lunch last summer at the White House. It was an unusual move, she conceded. Responding to questions about whether Obama might have been fishing for information about possible retirement plans, Ginsburg said, "I don't think he was fishing." Asked why Obama invited her, she said, "Maybe to talk about the court. Maybe because he likes me. I like him." "I don't remember the specifics, but we did talk about the court," she added. She said she did not believe the president's invitation arose from any pressure to retire before this November's congressional elections, which could change the Senate from a Democratic to a Republican majority and make the confirmation of an Obama nominee more difficult. The court is divided between five conservatives and four liberals, and many of the hottest social dilemmas are narrowly decided. They often come down to 5-4 votes, with the liberals sometimes prevailing as they are joined by centrist conservative Justice Anthony Kennedy. Ginsburg was appointed by Democratic President Bill Clinton in 1993. Ginsburg's future has been the subject of constant speculation, particularly because she has survived two serious rounds with cancer, in 1999 and 2009. She said on Thursday that she undergoes regular medical check-ups for cancer - a recent one showed no signs of trouble, she added - and works out twice a week with a personal trainer. "Thank goodness I haven't slowed down," she said, asserting that she does not intend to leave the bench in the near future unless her health changes. She has previously told reporters that she wanted to remain on the court until she matches the tenure of Justice Louis Brandeis, who retired at 82 in 1939 after nearly 23 years on the court. As she nears that marker, she said she is taking it year by year. Asked what she believed Obama might think about her future, she said, "I think he would agree with me that it's a question for my own good judgment." Among those liberals who have called for Ginsburg to step down is Erwin Chemerinsky, dean of the University of California, Irvine, law school. He had asserted that only if she resigned this summer, before the November elections, could she ensure that Obama would be able to choose a successor who shares her views. Ginsburg said on Thursday that even if she had retired, the president would have been more likely to have chosen a compromise candidate than a liberal. Some liberals are further concerned that if she does not retire during Obama's presidency and a Republican is elected as his successor in 2016, Ginsburg would end up being replaced by a conservative justice, moving the court even more to the right. Ginsburg, who has been the high court's senior justice on the left since the 2010 retirement of John Paul Stevens, has become a strong leader of that bloc and a robust voice for liberalism. In passionate dissenting statements from the bench, she has challenged the conservative majority's curtailing of federal voting rights law and, just in June, its position that for-profit employers can opt out of birth control coverage under federal healthcare law for religious reasons.
Event planner David Tutera and his ex-husband, Ryan Jurica, are making headlines because of the custody arrangement they worked out after splitting. Tutera is raising his biological daughter Cielo. Jurica, will raise his own biological son and Cielo’s fraternal twin, Cedric. Yes, they're splitting them up. Tutera, whose breakup occurred while a surrogate was carrying the twins, says it was "very confusing time" and their situation was far from ideal. “The divorce happened so quickly after the [embryo] transfer was successful that there wasn’t time to mourn the loss of raising a second child," he said. "I was mourning the loss of my relationship.” The couple's ugly breakup took place earlier this year, and quite publicly, with tabloid-worthy accusations of prostitution use and addiction flying. The dust has settled, but the breakup stuck. Tutera, who is based in L.A., says his top priority is for his daughter to have a relationship with her brother, who is living with Jurica in Connecticut. “We can’t pretend like this doesn’t exist for them ... that’s completely selfish. It is our responsibility to do the right thing for our children,” Tutera says. The 47-year-old host of My Fair Wedding adds, “We’ve exchanged photos. The mudslinging has ended. And I hope that one day, Ryan and I will be friends.” When it comes to Cielo, who was born June 19, Tutera says, “I’ll make mistakes, but my job for the rest of her life is to protect her and support her. We’re a team.” “I think we all envision ourselves married and in a relationship. But I’m an older dad and there is something very enlightening about being a single father."

Gary Collins, a prolific actor who became a successful host of daytime talk shows and — for almost a decade — master of ceremonies for the Miss America pageant, died on Saturday in Biloxi, Miss. He was 74. Mr. Collins died of natural causes, Brian Switzer, the Harrison County deputy coroner, said. In a performing career that spanned more than four decades, Mr. Collins made guest appearances on dozens of television shows, including “The Virginian,” “Love, American Style,” “Charlie’s Angels” and “JAG.” Mr. Collins became a familiar face in American living rooms in the 1980s as the congenial host of the syndicated afternoon talk show “Hour Magazine,” for which he won a daytime Emmy in 1983, and later, as the host of the Miss America Pageant from 1982 to 1990. From 1989 to 1994, he was the host of another daytime talk show, “The Home Show,” on ABC. Born in Venice, Calif., on April 30, 1938, Mr. Collins became interested in acting while in the Army, where he performed on the Armed Forces Network. He had his first break in 1965 with a supporting role on the NBC series “The Wackiest Ship in the Army,” with Jack Warden. He appeared with Dale Robertson in the 1966-68 series “Iron Horse,” and in 1972 he starred in “The Sixth Sense,” a series in which he played a parapsychologist. In 1974, he starred in a short-lived TV version of “Born Free.” In 1967, he married Mary Ann Mobley, Miss America of 1959. The couple separated last year. Besides his wife, survivors include their daughter, Marcy Clancy Collins; and two children from his first marriage, to Susan Peterson, Guy and Melissa Collins. In recent years, Mr. Collins, a resident of Biloxi, had legal troubles, including convictions for drunken driving and leaving the scene of a traffic accident. With a cheerful smile and good looks, Mr. Collins was known for his warm, welcoming style. In an interview with The Los Angeles Times in 1989, he said he was unsuited for the tabloid talk-show format that was emerging: “That’s basically not a part of my character.”

My partner's daughter, who has several psych. problems, came to visit with her son. He's eight now, and she's over 40. We paid for the trip, because she is chronically broke. That was fine. The kid hasn't been here since he was an infant. She fed him with a spoon and bribed him with money to eat. They insisted on sleeping in the same bed, even though we had purchased and installed another bed. Every time we were out in public he acted out - aiming it at her - with such antics as holding a napkin over his face all through dinner in a restaurant. When she's not around there are no problems. Among her issues is Munchausen's - she has had at least five unnecessary surgeries, has claimed to have cancer, screamed until the doctors induced delivery of her son, and other things. She's now projected it to him, by proxy, and has announced that he is autistic. She and her husband constantly move, and by third grade the kid has been in six schools and lived in four states. He's no more autistic than I am, but has learned he can do whatever he wants with his crazy mother around. And she's announced her intention to divorce and badmouths the father in front of the kid, who she calls her little man who will always be there for her. And they are moving again, and then she wants to move to another state, again. (She's lost every job she's had, including because of theft.) I told the boy, with whom I have a good relationship, that if he had something bothering him he needed to talk about it and we would deal with it. But if he acted out - and he let me know he knew what I meant - we would leave where we were. He agreed. And of course he started smacking his mother in the tit in a restaurant. My partner wasn't there with us. She let it go on after telling him he had hurt her. I said, "That's it," and got up to leave. In the car I told him he had broken our agreement and that his behavior was not acceptable. She said I was going to "shut him completely down" and refused to talk to me. When we got home he leapt out and wouldn't go near me, and she and he sat on the curb, refusing to come in. My partner went to talk to her, she accused me of abusing her son, my partner let loose on her and said if she wanted to go we would pay for the change in airline tickets. She marched in, packed, and left without talking, walking down the street with her bags and the kid. So, we thought we would try one last time, with this visit, to see if we could set a precedent and maybe he could visit by himself in the future. Again, alone there never has been a problem. We were horrified to see what she's doing to him, and he now knows how to play the game, already. In this case ought I to have just shut up and stood as a silent witness to the messes (he would knock drinks over, for example) and antics, and ignore the creepy babying and dishonesty from her? But I couldn't do nothing, and I didn't feel obliged to just let this shit between them be her passive-aggressive control game? We're relieved she's gone - it felt unhealthy and nasty - but we're very concerned about the boy. And he's out of state. (Apparently she found a motel room because someone called us to say how she was posting all happy vacation photos from the zoo and eateries.) Do we just let the fact that she's cut us off now be our exit cue? God, I'm sorry for all this. I've made fun of other long personal posts. But I don't know where our responsibility is and if there is anything we can do in this situation. She even had the kid hospitalized in a psychiatric ward for a week saying he was out of control and dangerous, and then switched back to "He's my baby." And the father is a gambler and completely passive. Thanks.
According to a depressing Playbill article, Stephen Sondheim has acceded to the censorial demands of the Walt Disney Company and made significant changes to the forthcoming big-screen version of INTO THE WOODS. Though this is easily Sondheim's most accessible show, the sexual innuendo that gives the musical a bit of a charge has been toned down at Disney's request. This explains director Rob Marshall's casting of the very young Lilla Crawford as Little Red Riding Hood; the studio probably had zero interest in presenting Johnny Depp as a libidinous Big Bad Wolf, and so the relationship between predator and prey will be nice and staid. As George S. Kaufman famously said, "Staid sells. That's why all those assholes went to see STATE FAIR." Additionally, the affair between the Baker's Wife (Emily Blunt) and the Prince (Chris Pine) has been altered in that they no longer have an actual affair. And if you're wondering what this means for "Any Moment", the terrific number that bookends their dalliance, well, it means it's probably out of the show. Also, Rapunzel doesn't die in this version because perfect creative achievements need to be ruined.
Dish the dirt!
The most important question of all time, undoubtedly.
Is it an aesthetic thing, or is it because they feel better when they''re inside you?\ \ I don''t have enough experience with bottoming to judge if it feels better to get fucked by a big dick than by a medium one, but I find medium(-to-smallish) dicks much more aesthetically pleasing.\ \ To say nothing of the fact that they''re much more comfortable to suck. But then I have a very small mouth - do all size queens have a mouth like Julia Roberts?
He vilifies Wisconsin's public employees and the panel lets him get away with it. Is this the same network that Maddow and Schultz work for anymore? First he argues that Wisconsin's public employees should wake up and take life as everybody else, including private union workers, is, by realizing that cuts are a reality. OK, that has some legitimacy. Then, in a split second, he argues that Wisconsin public employees should be treated differently than everybody else in that they, unlike private union workers, should not have the right to collective bargaining, a right they have had in Wisconsin since the 1950s. This, he says, preposterously is not union-busting. And by the way he fails to mention that Walker's plan is, clearly, not about economics but about party politics, in that he's exempted the three public employee unions that supported him for governor. (including the firefighters, who are, out on the streets with everyone else because they understand that what Walker doing's is an abomination) Joe, go fuck yourself!

Fantastic, underrated little Molly Ringwald/Andrew McCarthy drama film. It was one of her best performances. Viggo Mortensen was wonderfully smarmy and creepy as her too-old-for-her, hick husband.
Yas, the new season starts next week. I can't wait! Too bad Kelly Price left the show. She brought so much fuckery to season one that her drama will be deeply missed. But we still got Lil' Mo on the show, the breakout star, so it should be a good season.
Hello loungers It's going to be my first time crossing the pond, as NYC-based friends of mine have persuaded me to spend 9 days in their city in the first half of September. Now, I have been searching high and low to find accomodation that doesn't look like shit straight from the '80s while still having to fork up $250 per night - without much luck, so far. When visiting a city, one does not want to be too far removed from the center (Manhattan, Brooklyn). Some areas are apparently a no-go or straight up ghetto (this coming from my friends who are born and raised in the city). My question: could anyone recommend me something? Booking.com and airbnb have little to nothing to offer. I don't mind paying $150 per night, but $250 is ridiculous.. Thanks in advance!

Starring Kelsey Grammer and Martin Lawrence. I like them both so I may have to give it a look. I like that Kelsey never gives up on trying to make it back in the sitcom world. This will be about the 5th show he has done since "Frasier" went off the air. If at first you don't succeed. I think Martin is a great comic actor. I can't think of anything he has done that I didn't enjoy.
He's STILL around! Apparently they haven't received the message that he's been panned from TV to websites. He looks like your slightly creepy, drunk uncle. How/why are these commercials? Who's the demo they're going for?

WTF? Maggie Gallagher just admitted she doesn’t think of herself as a heterosexual. In a rambling new blog post, littered with very poor syntax and excessive verbiage, the NOM co-founder writes: Here’s my view: When Christians tell me that homosexuality is “socially constructed” and therefore not a “real” permanent feature of human existence, I generally respond “I know gay people exist the same way that I know that Methodists exist. I’ve met them.” In other words, not all categories that are real are founded on fixed unchangeable essences. Sexual orientation as a concept is a way of organizing “given reality” (sexual attraction) into a communal identity, the strongest kind. It is therefore not at all like race, and but rather more akin to religion. Such deep and profound wisdom. The sage continues: I never ever think of myself as a heterosexual, nonetheless my own ideas about my experience of sexuality (“we are born male and female and called to come together in love in this thing called marriage”) are core enough to my identity and my sense of what is required for communal good that I am willing to suffer rather than renounce them, if necessary. They are not positions I hold, they are part of who I am. Hold up! Did Maggie Gallagher, crusader for homophobia, just admit to possibly being a lesbian? No. Not at all. She just doesn’t label herself as a heterosexual. But she still is one, by definition, and she’s willing to make a martyr of herself over it “if necessary.” Now we can’t help but wonder… If she believes this strongly about her own heterosexuality, does she think it’s possible for gays and lesbians to feel similarly about their homosexuality? “I do not have strong feelings” she writes towards the end of her blog post. Which begs the question: Why the hell did she feel the need to write this nonsense?

I've struggled with this all my life. Years of psychiatry, medication, support groups and books haven't done much. Does anyone have examples of things they have done that successfully boosted their sense of self-worth to share? Or, from a different perspective, behaviour you have observed in others struggling with this - that they just don't recognize makes it worse for them?

Just broke up with a straight guy I'd been "dating" for a month. We went to movies, dinner, took him sailing, a Giants game, and went on long walks together on the beach at sunset and talked for hours. Call me old-fashioned, but I just don't kiss on the first, second, ... or fifth date. But I tried on the sixth. Didn't work out so well. His name is Greg-o-ree. How many straight guys with incredibly cute butts do you know who call themselves Greg-o-ree? Not "Greg," which is the proper, hetero version. Gregory is pissed that I tried to break up with him and isn't having any of it... "We were never even a couple" etc.. and won't stop texting me. Greg is coming over for dinner tomorrow. He says this isn't the first time this situation has happened. I just don't have the time to clean the hot tub or call him Greg-oree, but I can cook a mean lamb shank with couscous. We will likely watch the All-Stars game after dinner. But I'm not gonna try to hold his hand. Fuck me, please.

I have to say honestly that it seems to be a myth. If anything, they're normal size for the most part. I don't know where this stereotype came from. I've seen one study where the black penis was half an inch larger than the white, but that's not saying much. I've seen white guys with humongous cocks. I have seen black guys with really big dongs, but not as a rule. It's sad that it seems to be that black guys can only get jobs in porn if they live up to their stereotype, while white guys can be all different shapes and sizes in the genital department. For the whores out there, what's been your experience with white vs. black cock? Is one bigger? The same? It should be noted that whites come from all different backgrounds. That could be where the discrepancy comes from. On and off topic, they've found that gays have bigger penises on average than their straight counterparts. I call bullshit on that one too, but that's another topic.

I just finished the book "Thing of Beauty" (which I recommend) It's a great look at a different era. It was sad how many people in her life insisted that she couldn't be gay b/c she was so pretty. It also sounded like her narcissistic mom really did a number on her and made her a raging borderline. It sounded like there was some growth. Did any of you know any of these characters? I'm particularly fascinated by Way Bandy and some of the photographers. Also, the book didn't say it, but I get the distinct impression that Patti Hansen was the one who introduced her to heroin.
David Sedaris? Who? Oh, you mean the local litter-picker The US humorist has had a waste vehicle – 'Pig Pen Sedaris' – named after him in West Sussex. So is he flattered? Posted by Tim Dowling, Thursday 31 July 2014 17.14 BST The Guardian This week the West Sussex County Times reported that a local resident has been uniquely honoured. "South Downs litter picker has truck named after him," announced the headline, above an article reporting that the truck in question was a waste vehicle, christened "Pig Pen Sedaris" after the litter-picker in question, one David Sedaris. "David Sedaris is a familiar and very welcome sight in the lanes and by-ways of this lovely part of Horsham District," said district councillor Diane van der Klugt, "as he tirelessly and painstakingly goes about gathering up the litter so thoughtlessly discarded." In the accompanying picture, the honouree himself is standing alongside the truck. The caption identifies him as "David 'Pig Pen' Sedaris". There was no mention in the article of the local eccentric's day job, as a best-selling author, Grammy-nominated humorist, prolific radio contributor, US chat show regular and internationally celebrated figure whose books (seven million of which are in print) have been translated into 25 languages. It's not as if Sedaris himself is trying to keep these two strands of his life – famous writer and obsessive tidier of West Sussex – separate. As recently as a month ago he detailed his three-year-old litter-picking habit in the New Yorker. "You can tell where my territory ends and the rest of England begins," he wrote. "It's like going from the rose arbor in Sissinghurst to Fukushima after the tsunami." In fact he even mentioned that he would soon be getting a waste vehicle named after him. At the time he may or may not have been aware that a giant cartoon pig would be painted on its side, next to the words "Thanks David for helping to keep the area clean." If he's less than flattered by the association, he's not showing it in the picture. Sedaris's example has now inspired Horsham District Council to launch an "Adopt a Street" scheme to encourage residents to sign up as volunteer litter-pickers. "Do it enough and you might one day get a garbage truck named after you," Mr Sedaris told the West Sussex County Times. "It's an amazing feeling."
As President Obama heads to Texas to talk with Governor Rick Perry about the surge of undocumented children from Latin America crossing the border, Australia is facing a long-simmering immigration crisis of its own. For years, refugees from Asia have boarded unsafe boats and tried to land Down Under, sometimes with tragic results. An Australia-bound boat carrying 200 men sank in June 2012, with about 90 people suspected to have died. That was just one of a series of fatal incidents since 2010 in which boat people died trying to find refuge in Australia. Tony Abbott, the conservative prime minister who won election last year while promising to crack down on asylum seekers, is determined to avoid the fate of his Labor Party predecessors. Julia Gillard, prime minister at the time of the 2012 sinking, fumbled the immigration issue and eventually became the victim of a party coup by former premier Kevin Rudd—who went on to lose the general election to Abbott’s Liberal-National coalition in September. “It is indisputable that the right to seek and enjoy asylum applies to people regardless of their mode of arrival,” the Australian Human Rights Commission said in a statement published Friday. “It would be a flagrant violation of international human rights and refugee law to return asylum seekers to their country [of] origin without conducting a fair and robust assessment of their claims.” Abbott doesn’t seem to mind. Undeterred by the criticism, he also wants to send back another 153 Sri Lankan Tamils recently intercepted at sea in a separate boat. In an interview with Australian television’s Channel Nine today, he said Australia won’t be held “over a moral barrel” on the issue.

I have a friend that rarely ever calls me or texts me. I always end up calling/texting him. I am always the one to initiate spending time together. I don''t get it. \ \ When we hang out we always have fun. He has never blown me off. He never flakes on me or gets nasty with me. So why doesn''t he ever pick up the phone and call me first? Why does he always leave it up to me to initiate the hang outs? I don''t like feeling like I''m chasing someone down all the time. It makes me feel like I''m desperate or something. \ \ One time I stopped calling him just to see if he would call me back, thinking he would think something was wrong and call me. After a full MONTH with no call from him I finally broke down and called him. He never even asked acted like the month without speaking was anything. All he said was "Wow, it''s been a while!"\ \ I swear, I feel like the older I get the less I know how to deal with other people and their issues...

Bob McDonnell says Jonnie Williams ‘poisoned’ his ‘dysfunctional’ marriage RICHMOND, Va. — The federal corruption trial of former Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell and his wife, Maureen, began Monday in Richmond Federal Court. The couple was indicted on a combined 14 counts, most of the charges allege the McDonnells used their position to improve donor Jonnie Williams’ company, Star Scientific, in exchange for hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of gifts. This is the first time a Virginia Governor has been on trial for criminal charges.

The UK has gone nuts over this track. She said she's obsessed with the 90s, and music critics say that it captures the very essence of the house music of that decade. I like it. Funny that the video is so 80s. Looks like a rip-off of Janet Jackson's dance moves in "When I Think of You". She did it with a broken rib. She's a trained ballerina. I heard her speak in an interview - you would never believe that she could sing like this.

We go a few times per year and just got back from another long weekend. It''s become Palm Springs east. Lots and lots of older gays have moved-in and seem to have taken over.\ \ I don''t have an issue with older guys, I''m no spring chicken myself at 33, but the entire town seems to have taken on a different feel the last couple of years. While many of the crowds this summer were much of the same, much older guys are showing up. Some of them are the old crusty muscle daddies and some are just ancient. Lots of mimosa drinking happening, so many of the year-round townies appear to be mid 40s and up, lots of sneering and bitching about how they''re tired of the "tourists", etc. (we know several locals).\ \ What used to be a vibrant, diverse gay resort town has become God''s waiting room for fugly, sour faced old gays. I''m expecting piano bars specializing in Shirley Temples to dominate Commercial Street by this time next year.

Who the fuck gave this woman her own damn show? I'm on the East Coast but grew up in the Deep South. So little of what she does is "southern cooking". Has anyone else seen this mess? She stands there and attempts to be clever, opening up can after can after can. Using store bought packs of shredded cheese on everything. She's not cooking a bit, not at all. She's basically putting together common white trash recipes that most of our aunts and grandmothers post on FaceBook. Shit like "better than sex cake" and such. Lots of cans of olives and tubs of cream cheese are used. She doesn't know how to chop and leaves on her gigantic mega-carot diamond ring. She was actually frying something up in olive oil this weekend. I'm not cook but even I know you can't/shouldn't use olive oil to fry or even brown. It burns too fast and become carcinogenic after it tops a certain temperature. Did she get this show solely based on her money and name? She couldn't have gotten it based on her cooking. Poseur.

A social media specialist for a Utah language school that teaches English to non-native speakers says he was fired for writing a blog post about homophones—words that sound the same, but carry different meanings—because his boss was afraid readers would think it was about "gay sex." Tim Torkildson told the Salt Lake Tribune that shortly after his lesson went up, Nomen Global Language Center owner Clarke Woodger fired him, complaining "now our school is going to be associated with homosexuality." "I had to look up the word" Woodger said, according to the account Torkildson published on his personal blog, "because I didn't know what the hell you were talking about. We don't teach this kind of advanced stuff to our students, and it's extremely inappropriate. Can you have your desk cleaned out by eleven this morning? I'll have your check ready." It seems too ridiculous to believe, but Torkildson's former employer confirmed the incident of homophonia actually happened. "People at this level of English," Woodger told the Tribune, "may see the 'homo' side and think it has something to do with gay sex." Torkildson disagrees. He wrote that homophones are "one of the first subjects tackled when teaching ESL," and said his piece about them was very straightforward. The Tribune points out the Nomen blog published another post on the topic in 2011, apparently without incident. Torkildson, a 60-year-old who enjoys taking quirky selfies, had only worked at Nomen for three months. Although he claims Woodger told him he's only suited for "clerical work," he's now seeking another social media job.

Article from Salon today. The most interesting statement in the article is this one: "If there is fire to be found in this great cloud of gay smoke, it would be remarkable. The guy’s been A-list famous since 1983, and there has been no public evidence at all, none, to support the rumors." I've been saying this for years on the DL, to much disdain from fellow DLers. In my view, it is just not plausible that a mega-watt star like TC could be so famous for so long, engage in gay-sex seeking activities, and yet not a shred of evidence can confirm it (or even hint at it). Moreover, the rumor that he is gay seems to exist in a vacuum. It comes out of thin air from people who have just decided he must be gay (and that it's just so obvious), rather than from specific instances of TC being caught or observed in gay-sex seeking behaviors. TC is weird enough on his own from what we are able to observe publicly. Why we need to invent a closet for him to live in is beyond me.

Fabulous show! Just saw them in Los Angeles. Adam Lambert is perfect as a stand-in for Freddie Mercury. He twirled, strutted and preened like Cher imitating Liza Minnelli. He worked the runway like Naomi Campbell circa 1995. And he sang/screamed the sh*t out of those songs. Queen performed all of their best-known songs. There were even very nice Freddie Mercury visuals throughout the show, including Adam and Freddie duetting part of "Bohemian Rhapsody." Crowd was 60% for Queen and 40% for Adam and everyone left happy. It was the absolute opposite of the train wreck that you vicious DL b*tches predicted.

A screaming baby or a child running through a dining room is never a pleasant sound or sight for diners, but one Northern California restaurant has decided to do something about the behavior of its pint-sized diners. Shake’s Old Fisherman’s Grotto on Fisherman’s Wharf in Monterey has banned loud children from its dining room. A sign out front reads: “Children crying or making loud noises are a distraction to other diners, and as such are not allowed in the dining room.” n addition to banning noisy kids, the sign also prohibits strollers, high chairs and booster chairs. Diners looking for a peaceful, quiet meal may let out a sigh of relief, but those with small children may see it as just another way of saying: “You’re not welcome here.” “I’m completely shocked because I never had that happen,” customer Niki Riviere told KSBW-TV. She left after not being able to get a high chair for her 6-month-old baby. “Usually they cater, at least have a high chair for the child, but it seemed like they didn’t want any child. They said the child can’t make any noises so they turned us away.”

He is friends with Jeff because Jeff is Harry's agent, he is supposed to introduce him to a lot of important people in LA. Harry wants to be known as a songwriter, he wants to become 'friends' with people who can help him become famous as an individual when the time is there. You can keep calling Jeff his boyfriend, but that doesn't make it the truth. The only truth is that Harry is a smart ass who knows exactly how to charm the right people into doing a lot for him. Even if those people have their own agenda as well. Harry has talked his way right into the Azoff family. What more does he need? Well, maybe a secret girl- or boyfriend who loves him for who he is, and not for how famous he is. Someone who doesn't care about him being in LA all the time. So this person must have the possibility to see him, even though he is always staying at different places around the world. Someone whom he wants to stay faithful to, even though he knows that he could sleep with a lot of beautiful people. But why would a guy his age want to do that? Does that mean that his love interest is famous as well, and that he/she can pull the same card? Open your eyes, there is only one person who would fit in his life right now. He has never made a secret of his feelings.

The idea that Mitt Romney may run for president again in 2016 is getting closer to becoming a reality as a Vox Populi Poll found that 70% of Republican primary voters are open to voting again for Romney. Republican primary voters in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina were asked if they would consider voting for Romney again for their party’s nomination in 2016. Twenty-three percent of South Carolina primary voters would vote for Mitt Romney again, and 51% would consider it. In New Hampshire, 30% would definitely vote for him, and 47% would consider it. In Iowa, 21% would definitely vote for him, and 53% would consider it. The numbers in each state suggest that Romney already has enough support to win two or maybe all three of the first three primary states on the Republican calendar. Romney’s support has stayed fairly consistent with his 2012 performance. In 2012, Romney got 25% of the caucus vote in Iowa. Today, he is at 21% in the state. Romney got 39% of the 2012 GOP primary vote in New Hampshire, and he is at 30% today. In South Carolina, Romney got 28% of the vote in 2012, and he is sitting at 23% today. Romney’s lingering popularity with Republican primary voters suggests that voters aren’t in love with any of their possible options. Scandals have sunk Chris Christie and Scott Walker. Rand Paul remains a Paul, and his foreign policy views are completely out of step with most of the party. Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio have past support of immigration reform working against them, and the rest of the potential candidates hail from the Ted Cruz kooky wing of the party. A glance through the alternatives makes it easy to understand why Romney remains popular with so many Republican primary voters. It might seem unbelievable, but Mr. 47% could be the least damaged Republican option out there. The big money voices in the GOP have been trying to cut a deal to clear the field and hand Romney the nomination, but they may not even need to do it. A path is forming for Mitt Romney to run for a third time, and win back to back Republican nominations. Romney would lose to Hillary Clinton by an even larger margin than he lost to President Obama, but Republicans in early voting states believe that he is their best option in what could be a historically bad field of candidates. Republican voters are willing to hand the presidency to Hillary Clinton by returning to Mitt Romney as their nominee.

Does Tony Dungy have love in his heart for Aaron?
He says that she is too in love with fame and thinks too highly of herself. Hollywood’s princess has reportedly been dumped. After three-years of an on-again, off-again romance, Jennifer Lawrence, 23, and her “X-Men” co-star, Nicholas Hoult, have reportedly called their romance quits, TheFIX reports. According to the gossip site, Hoult, 24, dumped Lawrence over her “exploded ego” and “obsession” with Hollywood. “He hates how in love with fame Jen is and he told her he hates dating an A-list actress,” said one source. “They are still talking but Nicholas is moving on.” According to the report, Lawrence is reportedly “desperately” trying to get back with her two-time co-star, an attempt which may be in vain. “She’s worked so hard for her achievements and she’s so proud of her career. But Nic wants a more low-key girlfriend,” said a source, citing model and actress Riley Keough as his ideal future love interest. The break up rumors follow Page Six’s report that Hoult was seen flirting with Keough, 25, at No.8’s “Philo Prom” party July 23. According to an eyewitness the pair was spotted “siting arm-in-arm“ and “looked cozy,” at the star-studded soiree. Following their flirtation fest, insiders claim that the British film star is pursuing Keough in his native stomping grounds. “Riley is into acting in indies and not playing the fame game. She also spends a huge amount of time in the UK because her mom Lisa Marie Presely lives there,” said a source, adding, “Nic dated Riley when he and Jen were on their first break and he is ready to give their relationship a shot.” Lawrence and Hoult first started dating in 2011 after meeting on the set of “X-Men: First Class.” The duo separated in February 2012 only to reconcile just six months later during the production of “X-Men Days of Future Past.” Hoult last spoke out about his romance with Lawrence in March, telling V Man magazine he felt like her “bystander in many ways.” In May, Lawrence spoke of her British beau to Marie Claire magazine, saying, “When we're busy, we agree to mutually ignore each other. Not completely, but neither of us gets mad when the other doesn't text back or call. Life's super-busy.”
Jennifer Lawrence dumped by boyfriend because of her "EXPLODED EGO"
I have just watched the 1984 versison of STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE with Ann-Margret and Treat Williams, which I imagined would be Tennessee-lite, but was very involving and emotional, with great art-direction and that late 1940s look. Is it a quality production of the play, is Ann a creditable Blanche? I have liked Ann in several items lately (like The Two Mrs Grenvilles) and her 1966 The Pleasure Seekers, and she seems to be ticking all the boxes here, even if too shrill at the start but by the second half she is terrific. No one could ever be as good as Vivien Leigh but Ann has a creditable stab, with all those lines we know: about the Tarntula Arms, and "I dont want realism, I want magic", "deliberate cruelty is unforgiveable" and of course "I have always depended on the kindness of strangers" for that great climax. Beverely D'Angelo is good too as Stella. Stanley though is Treat Williams who seems to have bulked up and looks sexy enough. He plays him as an infantile brute. Treat was fun in The Ritz and in Hair, but Brando he ain't. Looking at it again it seems a very cruel work, as Blanche is stripped of everything and Kowalski gets away with raping her, as she is carried off to the looneybin. I noticed it is based on Tennessee's play, so may not be the full actual text, but its well directed by John Erman, with Travilla dressing Ann, Sydney Guilaroff doing her hair, and Marvin Hamlish doing that good score. I'd love to have seen Dunaway and Voight, or Lange and Baldwin. Any other famous Blanches? The only one I saw on the stage was Claire Bloom's in London in 1974.

Pope: Gay marriage threatens humanity’s future Pontiff's strongest tirade yet says same-sex nuptials 'undermine the family' Pope Benedict XVI denounced gay marriage in his annual “State of the World” address Monday, going so far as to say the same-sex nuptials threaten the future of humanity. In the speech, the pope, 84, unleashed what some consider being his strongest tirade against gay marriage, saying it is among conventions that “undermine the family” and “threaten human dignity and the future of humanity itself,” Reuters reported.

I set out for Ford Fest on July 25, the latest in a series of public picnics held by Mayor Rob Ford, with a mission: to engage black Ford supporters, and only them, in conversation about our mayor’s consistent expressions of anti-black racism. Many of the hundreds gathered at Thomson Memorial Park in Scarborough were people of African and Caribbean descent. But of the 30 or so I spoke with, very few were willing (or able) to problematize Ford’s use of the N Word, his description of blacks as “f--ing minorities” or his claim that no one has helped black people more than him. The unwillingness among Ford’s black supporters to confront his racism seems extremely nuanced and strategic. As black Canadians, they’ve experienced racism first-hand and know how badly it stings. When these folks deny, obscure or ignore Ford’s racism, they’re delivering a grim message: all politicians look down on black people, but at least Ford will occasionally grace them with the privilege of his presence. Everyone who spoke with me suggested that our politicians and the system they serve are generally corrupt and specifically racist or indifferent toward black people. Such low expectations of public service make Ford a hero for offering his black supporters a hamburger and a little attention. A woman who gave her name as Flavour told me passionately, “I’ve been living in Scarborough for many years, and this is the only mayor I’ve ever gotten to shake hands with.” This sort of desperation and insecurity would be comic if it weren’t so consistent among the blacks I interviewed. Ford may not be perfect (I heard this at least a dozen times), he may even be racist sometimes, but he performs token positive gestures toward blacks that others won’t, and that’s good enough for many. Those I spoke with sounded resigned to some racism in politics. For them, Ford’s divisive brand represents an awkward but acceptable compromise. Despite the depth of disillusionment among many black people about our status in this city and country, it is naïve to assume that we are universally intolerant of anti-black racism. Black Torontonians are, we cannot forget, facing a disproportionately grim set of social and economic circumstances: as children we’re more likely to be kicked out or suspended from school; as adolescents we’re the targets for non-investigative stops by police; as adults we’re less likely to find good jobs. Many blacks identify with Ford as victim, as someone whose behaviour is over-scrutinized, and they jump on his bandwagon. The consequences of black disillusionment played themselves out in a powerful way at Ford Fest. While I conducted interviews, a group of LGBTQ protesters arrived at the picnic. A large and angry throng of Ford supporters, including many black people, taunted the queer protesters and chanted at them to “go home.” This is civic engagement Ford-style, and the mayor has employed the same rallying cry against black people in different circumstances. Only two years ago, he used a shooting in Scarborough to propose his race-baiting suggestion that the city deport people convicted of gun crimes. This is how Ford repays the unwavering loyalty of his black supporters, but many of them are too caught up in his game of patronage to fight back. A woman named Josine spoke with me just after her daughter had her photo taken with Rob’s brother Doug, who’d been working the crowd for hours. Her response to the Ford brothers’ repeated comments that no one has helped black people more than the mayor? Josine wrinkled her nose and said, “They haven’t done anything for our community… but I don’t know anything.”

Looks like it's a race between New York and New Jersey to see whose Governor gets indicted first. [bold]U.S. Attorney Warns Cuomo on Ethics Case[/bold] In an escalation of the confrontation between the United States attorney in Manhattan, Preet Bharara, and Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo over the governor’s cancellation of his own anticorruption commission, Mr. Bharara has threatened to investigate the Cuomo administration for possible obstruction of justice or witness tampering. The warning, in a sharply worded letter from Mr. Bharara’s office, came after several members of the panel issued public statements defending the governor’s handling of the panel, known as the Moreland Commission, which Mr. Cuomo created last year with promises of cleaning up corruption in state politics but shut down abruptly in March. Mr. Bharara’s office has been investigating the shutdown of the commission, and pursuing its unfinished corruption cases, since April. At least some of those statements were prompted by calls from the governor or his emissaries, according to people with direct knowledge of the situation who were unwilling to be named for fear of reprisal. One commissioner who received a call from an intermediary on behalf of the governor’s office said he found the call upsetting and declined to make a statement. The letter from prosecutors, which was read to The New York Times, says, “We have reason to believe a number of commissioners recently have been contacted about the commission’s work, and some commissioners have been asked to issue public statements characterizing events and facts regarding the commission’s operation.”“To the extent anyone attempts to influence or tamper with a witness’s recollection of events relevant to our investigation, including the recollection of a commissioner or one of the commission’s employees, we request that you advise our office immediately, as we must consider whether such actions constitute obstruction of justice or tampering with witnesses that violate federal law.” Reached late Wednesday night, a spokesman for the governor did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the letter from Mr. Bharara’s office. A lawyer for the commission declined to comment on the letter. The Times reported last week that Mr. Cuomo’s office had deeply compromised the panel’s work, objecting when it focused on groups with political ties to Mr. Cuomo, a Democrat who is seeking re-election, or on issues that might reflect poorly on him. The Times’s article prompted condemnations from government watchdog groups and newspaper editorial boards. Mr. Cuomo, facing perhaps the harshest scrutiny of his three and a half years as governor, remained out of public view for five days as criticism mounted. Late Sunday night, Mr. Cuomo’s office announced that he would make an appearance in Buffalo on Monday morning, setting in motion what appeared to be a coordinated effort by Mr. Cuomo and his aides to present a defense for their conduct. Just hours before Mr. Cuomo faced reporters, one of the co-chairs of the commission, William J. Fitzpatrick, released a three-page statement in which he asserted that “nobody ‘interfered’ with me or my co-chairs.” Facing questions from the news media, Mr. Cuomo repeatedly cited the statement by Mr. Fitzpatrick, the Onondaga County district attorney. The governor called the statement “very helpful,” explaining that Mr. Fitzpatrick “knows better than anyone else what happened with the Moreland Commission.” “Now we have facts that we can actually deal with, right?” Mr. Cuomo said. Mr. Fitzpatrick’s statement seemed at odds with frustration he had expressed to colleagues last year; in one email reported by The Times, he wrote that Mr. Cuomo’s office “needs to understand this is an INDEPENDENT commission and needs to be treated as such.” Mr. Cuomo dismissed that email as “snippets of conversations.” [more at link]

Reporter for CBS Miami. What do we know about him?
I am looking to get my first new car in almost 10 years. I am interested in an Audi. Is there anything political I should know about the company? Does it employ illegal child labor? Exploit impoverished workers? Have policies that are discriminatory, xenophobic or forbid religious freedom? Is it intolerant of well-intentioned fraus? Cruel to caftaned elder gays? I don't want to spend money on a car I would be ashamed to use. Thank you for your advice and counsel.

From Salon: I was in a bar in Chicago when I told a close friend of 20 years that, despite being a lesbian, I was marrying a man. My friend and I hadn’t seen each other in a while, but we fell back quickly into our old intimacy — those long, rambling conversations we used to have in coffee shops all over Minneapolis. When the subject shifted to an activist group she was part of, I said I’d be glad to help, if they needed a lesbian on their board. She laughed, dismissively. “You can’t call yourself that anymore.” Of all the weird reactions I’d gotten to my engagement, that one pissed me off most. I had not been not surprised when my fiancé’s friends — Washington insiders with the respect for convention that city inspires — expressed shock when they discovered I was a dyke. We came from different worlds; with my long brunette hair and short skirts, I hadn’t read as queer to them. But no one had presumed to relabel me, to retrofit me to their categories — at least, not to my face. But here was my fabulous Portland pal, trying to claim me for the Bi-Het team (which sounded like a synagogue rather than a sexual identity, and certainly not my own). She wasn’t the only one: An ex-girlfriend and a sophisticated poet cousin said the same thing, as if my lesbian license had been revoked. So let me be clear, since I can’t be the only one: I am a lesbian marrying a man. This is not semantics, or splitting hairs; it is fundamental to who we are — my fiancé and I. Immutable as height or eye color. Call it a kind of intermarriage. I am 5-foot-9, brunette, lesbian, that won’t alter because of our vows; nor will my love of women, though I won’t be dating them. If either of us had to pretend otherwise, I wouldn’t be marrying this man. It is precisely because our love makes room for us to be who we are, rather than cutting us to fit convention, that I want to spend my life with him. One of the things I cherished about coming out as a lesbian years ago was the wonderful sense I had that I was leaving behind received forms of love, those that seemed to have disappointed my parents and friends. We were free to invent our own, something authentic, not roles we shrugged on like a borrowed coat. Still, I can’t blame those I love for trying to recast me in more familiar terms — as bisexual or straight. I’ve done the same sort of mislabeling myself. I did this with the man I love when we first met. When I first sat down beside the man I would marry, I thought, “Too many sport coats, too little hair.” It was ungallant of me, a glib assessment, born of a writerly habit of sizing up characters. I didn’t recognize this habit as defensive, a way of trying to contain what was foreign to me, what might unsettle my world. My world, if I’d had to sum it up then, was composed of lesbian activists and writers, with a smattering of hip-ish academics at the university in D.C. where I taught then. People in my world subscribed to the Nation and the New York Review of Books, and understood that a reference to the Times always means New York’s. People in my world did not wear sport coats (except perhaps ironically to a “Mad Men” party). But there was something about this guy that I liked, despite my initial reflexive dismissal. Sitting next to him, I understood for the first time the term “take a cotton to.” I felt as if the fibers of my body were stretching toward him, affectionately, or like iron filings toward a magnet. As he will later tell the story, we’d come to meet other people, but in the crowded wood-paneled lounge we’d ended up next to each other, sharing a drink. Over that drink, I learned he had been a graduate student in New Haven when I was an undergraduate there. In those days, he had recently returned from the Peace Corps in the Solomon Islands and North Africa, while I was slowly, painfully coming out, finding my way from an economics major to books. We talked about languages we speak — Arabic, Portuguese, pidgin, lousy French — and Shakespeare plays we love, of which he could quote an impressive amount.

Joao Gilberto and Astrud Gilberto both are still alive, although they're not performing at all. The bossa nova recordings up to the ealry 1960s are so cool - they manage to be dated and fresh at the same time. At first you think you're hearing elevator music, because the farther it gets from samba it seems distilled, but then you hear the jazz in it - the complexity within the simple form. And then later bossa nova heats up - I guess nothing Brazilian can keep the temperature down for long. Any other listeners of Brazilian music?

The manager of a Florida business where George Zimmerman was questioned by police said Tuesday that Zimmerman was never hired to provide security, despite his claims otherwise to authorities. DeLand police report that two officers spotted Zimmerman and his dog parked behind Pompano Pat's, a motorcycle and gun store, on Sunday shortly after midnight and approached him. Zimmerman, acquitted last summer in the shooting of the 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, told officers that the owner gave him permission to be there to provide security after a recent burglary, according to the police report. Officers attempted to confirm that but couldn't reach the owner. No citations were issued because "There was no evidence to support that a crime had occurred or was about to occur," Officer Jessica Mayo wrote in the report. Zimmerman "in no way, shape or form" is employed by the store, Pompano Pat's manager Sam Porter told The Associated Press in a phone interview Tuesday. Owner Pat Johnson didn't immediately return a phone message. "He's not being paid to be act as a security officer or in any other way for Pompano Pat's," Porter said. Porter confirmed that the store had a burglary about two weeks ago, with 10 rifles stolen. He said that internal store security was "beefed up" after the incident, but that no after-hours security personnel were hired. Porter said that Johnson knew Zimmerman and had a friendship with him but wouldn't elaborate further. Zimmerman became a national figure during his second-degree murder trial last year for fatally shooting the Martin during an altercation in Sanford, Florida, in February 2012. The case raised questions about race and self-defense laws. Zimmerman, who identifies himself as Hispanic, was acquitted last July in the shooting of Martin, who was black. Zimmerman filed an appeal this week in a defamation lawsuit against NBC Universal and three reporters. Last month, a judge dismissed Zimmerman's lawsuit, saying the former neighborhood watch leader had failed to show that the network acted with malice. In his lawsuit, Zimmerman says NBC's editing of a story about the shooting made it sound as if he voluntarily told a phone operator that Martin was black.

The 47-year-old, who shares the same father John as the Golden Globe winner, was found early this morning. Her exact cause of death is unclear, but, according to reports, she was found with 'dozens of white pills' scattered around her vehicle. Ms Barrymore's struggles with addiction have been well documented. She was discovered by a neighbour, Marta Lopez, who unsuccessfully tried to revive her, reports ABC's local 10 News. Tomorrow would be Jessica's 48th birthday. The Barrymore family have not yet commented on the tragedy.
From the New York Post: Anderson Cooper and his partner, Benjamin Maisani, will be relaxing in historic splendor in Connecticut’s affluent Litchfield County this summer. Multiple sources tell us the CNN anchor has splashed out on a massive, 10,127-square-foot Tudor revival stone mansion, called Rye House, for the mid-to-high seven figures. The tony estate — sold by Karen Shaw, a former Miss Connecticut who starred on “Dallas” and “The A Team,” and her husband, Marc — was built in 1908 and designed by Wilson Eyre, a founder of House & Garden magazine. The home includes an Olympic-sized swimming pool and tennis court, and is on the National Register of Historic Places. Its 18 rooms feature original chestnut wood paneling, limestone fireplaces and a hand-carved marble staircase. There’s also a private four-bedroom guest wing. The 280-acre grounds boast Japanese pagoda trees, wisteria, magnolias, a walkway with stone pillars and a grape arbor. The Shaws, who bought the house 15 years ago and lovingly restored it, have been renting it out for $1,800 per night, sources said. Depending on which local you ask, Cooper bought the property in leafy Litchfield for anywhere between $5 million and $9 million. The anchor will be in good company: The Litchfield area has been home to Meryl Streep, “The Normal Heart” playwright Larry Kramer, Henry Kissinger, NBC Sports vet Dick Ebersol and Susan Saint James, and HBO documentary doyenne Sheila Nevins. Anderson and Maisani already own another unusual property, an 8,240-square-foot Greenwich Village firehouse they bought in 2010 for $4.3 million. In April, Cooper also listed one of two waterfront properties in Quogue for $2.99 million. In November, Cooper, who makes around $11 million a year at CNN, signed a contract extension through the 2016 presidential election. Despite being the son of Gloria Vanderbilt, Cooper recently told Howard Stern, “My mom’s made clear to me that there’s no trust fund.” Reps for Cooper did not return calls. Pics of the huge home at link.

Maybe you’re one of those irritating people prone to complaining, “Why can’t they make shows as good as [name of a vintage TV series] anymore?” For years, that was a safe whine because the shows existed only in the memories of those who had seen them the first time around. But then, in addition to releases on videotape and DVD, came cable. Outlets like Nick at Nite and TV Land discovered that they could live off rebroadcasts of ancient series, and now, in case you haven’t noticed, all sorts of imitators have discovered that, too. This past Saturday afternoon at 1:30, a Comcast customer in central New Jersey like me could choose from among “7th Heaven” (on a channel called Up that promises “uplifting entertainment”), “Good Times” (TV One), “The Virginian” (Inspire), “The Bill Cosby Show” (Aspire), “The Golden Girls” (TV Land), “Maverick” (Encore Westerns) and others. Expecting to feel nostalgic on Thursday night at 10:30? Cozi has “Magnum P.I.,” Antenna TV has “Sanford and Son,” and Aspire offers “The Flip Wilson Show.” The problem with the ready availability of this old stuff — don’t even get me started on Internet streaming — is that it forces us into a wistful but abstract longing for what was. And the reality is: All this retro TV is too much of a good thing, or, more correctly, too much of a thing that wasn’t really as good as memory makes it seem. It’s fine to pay respect to the shows of yore, to acknowledge and admire them for delineating and expanding the form and so on. But to actually watch 50-year-old shows all day? I’d rather rip out my eyeballs. Sure, it’s fun to indulge occasionally — once a week, say. Maybe you’ll get lucky and stumble on a 1966 episode of “Bewitched” called “Man’s Best Friend,” where a young actor named Richard Dreyfuss, still a teenager, made one of his first appearances. Or perhaps you’ll hit upon one of the two “Alfred Hitchcock Presents” episodes from the 1950s directed by the unknown Robert Altman. But if you’re watching this fare all day, every day, you need help, because “venerable” doesn’t necessarily mean “still watchable.” Sluggish pacing, wooden acting, wince-inducing jokes and obvious plot twists abound in the television of the distant and even not-so-distant past. Too much of this will turn your brain to mush as surely as too much of today’s reality TV will. I know this is heresy to some, but since I’m in this far, I might as well go whole hog. Here are nine great, important, fabulous vintage (or soon to be) shows that I never want to see again. I don’t know if they are currently being shown on any of the channels mentioned above, but surely somebody has programmed them or plans to in the future. No! Back in the vault, please: ‘I LOVE LUCY’ (premiere: 1951) Yeah, I know; it’s at or near the top of a lot of Best TV Series of All Time lists, and rightly so. In its time, it was defining. But today the broad humor draws only the occasional chuckle. The show is like your high school girlfriend: Just because you loved Lucy once doesn’t mean you still do. ‘THE HONEYMOONERS’ (1955) Same problem, only louder. Couples defined by screaming seem more sad than funny today. THE MANY LOVES OF DOBIE GILLIS’ (1959) Considering that it gave us one of the most memorable characters in television’s first half-century, the beatnik Maynard G. Krebs (Bob Denver), this series is remarkably drab. Teenagers perhaps found that it spoke to them. If those same people, with a lifetime of perspective now in their heads, were to watch it today, the memory of that would make them flush with embarrassment. At their age, that would constitute a health risk. ‘GILLIGAN’S ISLAND’ (1964) Considering the cultural impact it had, this show wasn’t around for long, but if you were a child when it was on, it looms large. Such characters! Such a predicament! Preserve that innocence by not watching it again, because most of the episodes were actually kind of lame, and some dismaying stereotypes floated through the island from time to time.

Channing is still a shit actor but his charisma more than makes up for it. I don't hate Jonah the way some of you trolls do and I thought he was funny and pretty self-depracating. Hell, even Ice Cube was funny, and I wasn't even high. However the villlinness, can't think of her name- stole the movie. The comedy is very meta. I highly recommend.
What''s her story? It''s unusual for a soap star to cross over to tv/movies. Suddenly she is everywhere. Biggest Loser. Allergy Medicine ads. Print ads. I never thought of her as the main attraction for Days fans, but she must have a huge fanbase. I watched Days when she was the bitchy teenager causing trouble in Salem. I just never expected her to have such career longevity. My guess is she''s a really nice person. Anyone have any insider information?

Minus the Crostini as I didn't want bread. I had these lovely young eggplants and didn't want it grilled or Parm so I looked around for something different. OMG did it come out great.

It makes a great small side as it is sweet but so delicious.

Hi, Bill Greves, Susie Lee's friend who started her on Datalounge after a big surgery she had a couple of years ago.%0D %0D I haven't been on DL for a long time. Apparently the board has undergone some changes and when Susie tried to get back on to post one day, she couldn't find her thread, couldn't bring it up in a search, nothing, so she just gave up.%0D %0D She is currently with her son, his wife, and new granddaughter Elizabeth in Italy (her son works for a company in the U.S. but has to go to Milan occasionally). I spoke with her on New Year's, and she has requested that I post and tell everyone hello, she hopes you had a wonderful holiday season and have a spectacular new year. When she and I are together at some time, we'll try to get her back to posting if any of her posting friends are still around. She wanted to be remembered to everyone.I realize she doesn't know you, but I think she felt like she did. I apologize for not posting sooner but I have been frantic lately.

Michele Bachmann accuses Obama of wanting to experiment on immigrant children By Arturo Garcia; Wednesday, July 30, 2014 17:20 EDT Outgoing Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) accused President Barack Obama’s administration during a radio interview of encouraging more Central American immigrant minors to come to the U.S. for the purposes of procuring subjects for medical experiments, Right Wing Watch reported on Wednesday. “We can’t imagine doing this,” she said. “But if you have a hospital, and they are gonna get millions of dollars in government grants so that they can conduct medical research on somebody — and a ward of the state can’t say no, a little kid can’t say no, if they’re a ward of the state — so here you could have an institution getting millions of dollars from our government to do medical experimentation, and a kid can’t even say no. It’s sick.” According to Right Wing Watch, Bachmann’s claim is an offshoot of her introduction of “Justina’s Law,” named after Justina Pelletier, the Massachusetts teenager who was the focal point of a court battle between her parents and the state Department of Children and Families (DCF) dating back to February 2013. Pelletier’s family and the agency’s dispute began when Boston Children’s Hospital diagnosed the girl with “a persistent and severe somatic symptom disorder,” countering an earlier diagnosis by Tufts Medical Center saying her inability to walk or eat was caused by mitochondrial disease. DCF was granted emergency custody over Pelletier until she turned 18 this past March, but the ruling was reversed three months later when juvenile court judge Joseph Johnston ruled that her parents had demonstrated they could provide adequate care for her. Right Wing Watch reported that, according to Bachmann and other religious conservatives, the hospital diagnosed Pelletier with somatoform disorder because it wanted a federal grant to study the disease Bachmann’s resolution, co-sponsored by Reps. Karen Bass (D-CA), Jim McDermott (D-WA), and Tom Marino (R-PA) subsequently accused Children’s Hospital and similar facilities of having “an internal policy that allows for children who are deemed ‘wards of the State,’ including foster children, to receive treatment or be involved in research that presents great risk even if there is no prospect of any benefit to the child.” But in reality, the hospital’s policy only sanctions research involving “greater than minimal risk with no prospect of direct benefit” if it is related to a child’s status as a ward. The policy also calls for any child included in this kind of study to have an advocate appointed to serve on their behalf in addition to any guardian or “in loco” family the child may have. “We have 400,000 foster children in this country, and now President Barack Obama is trying to bring all of those foreign nationals, the illegal aliens, to the country and he has said that he will put them in the foster care system,” Bachmann said during her radio interview. “I will tell you from personal experience, we don’t have enough foster parents now in the country for the kids in America. We certainly don’t have enough foster parents for all of the illegal aliens that the president is trying to bring in right now.” The remarks signify a slight change in tack from Bachmann, who earlier this month referred to the thousands of children who have emigrated from El Salvador, Honduras and Nicaragua as “invaders” and linked them to an unidentified rape case and a fatal 2008 auto accident. Listen to Bachmann’s remarks, as posted online on Wednesday, below.

I've read rumors elsewhere that he's gay and mentioned this to my boss, who is a lesbian. For some reason she got bent out of shape refusing to entertain the notion that Daniel Craig might be gay. So, IF he is gay, does anyone have some good strong evidence that Daniel Craig is gay that I can present her?
All those broken treaties, etc.?
You know Taylor Swift loves to get a hold of all the bi-curious (Joe Jonas), bi-sexual (Harry Styles) and gay (Taylor Lautner) men in Hollywood so she can get dumped by them and later write a hit song playing the victim of how bad they were to her. So what do you all think of her new 'victim' Australian born actor Brenton Thwaites, 23, set to star in two new movies (The Prince in Disney’s “Maleficent” and Jonas in the movie “The Giver“). I hope he runs from Taylor, but somehow both of their PR people are probably working over-time to shove their romance down our throats. But what do you all think of Brenton? Does he have the looks to make it big in Hollywood?

From wikipedia: The sexuality of Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865), the 16th President of the United States, has been a topic of historical debate and scholarship, particularly since the late twentieth century.[1] Lincoln was married to Mary Todd from November 4, 1842, until his death on April 15, 1865, and fathered four children with her. According to several historians, there was no indication during Lincoln's lifetime that anyone suspected him of homosexuality[2] and few researchers have argued to the contrary. In a 2005 book, psychologist C. A. Tripp described Lincoln as having a problematic and distant relationship with women, in contrast to his warmer relations with a number of men in his life; Tripp writes that two of those relationships had possible homoerotic overtones.[3] Tripp's view has been particularly criticized for flawed historical methodology.[4] Some Lincoln biographers, including David Herbert Donald, have strongly contested claims that Lincoln was homosexual or bisexual.[5] In opposing such claims, Donald cites Lincoln's letters for context, in which he frequently referred to acquaintances, even political enemies, as "my personal friend".[6]

HOUSTON, TX — A father will spend half of 2014 behind bars for doing too much for his son. After overpaying child support and seeing his son too often — breaking terms that were secretly modified without his knowledge — a judge sentenced him to a lengthy jail sentence. WTF?
ust over a week ago the Satanic Temple, unwavering disciples of the Prince of Darkness and aspiring adopt-a-highway participants, performed a Pink Mass over the grave of Catherine Idalette Johnston, the mother of Westboro Baptist Church founder Fred Phelps Jr. Westboro has yet to officially comment on the eternal gaying of its leader’s dead mom, but the owner of the cemetery where the ceremony was performed has filed charges with the local police department. The captain of the Meridian PD, Dean Harper, told local news station WTOK-TV on Monday that they were “in the process of constructing affidavits” and “will have [the satanists] arrested as soon as [they] can.” He added, "It is an unusual crime that we haven't come across—to my knowledge—in a while." LOL. Harper told the Huffington Post today that the original charges of tresspasing, malicious mischief, and indecent exposure (thanks to Lucien tea-bagging Catherine Johnston's grave, which can be seen here) have been dropped because "the judge refused to sign a warrant on them." In the end, Lucien has been charged with desecration of a grave. If this sort of case was thrown onto the desk of another small town police department, one that, say, was located in a community with few serious crimes, it would be fine for the department to pursue what is, essentially, an exercise in the misuse of police time and energy. People—including police officers—get bored and need something to occupy their time. Meridian, unfortunately, is not one of those sleepy towns. According to Neighborhood Scout, a website owned by a research and data-mining company that collects crime statistics from around the country, Meridian is—and I’m paraphrasing here—sketchy as fuck. Based on a crime index of 0 to 100—100 being a crime-free utopia and 0 being the inside of one of Trevino Morales's vats of acid—Meridian gets a four. By way of comparison, Brooklyn, New York, clocks in at 40. Detroit, one of the most dangerous cities in America, is a two. One would think that a town with a population of around 41,000 and a crime-index rating almost on par with a city that has become a byword for blight and criminal activity would take a pass on devoting time and resources to chasing a few out-of-towners who performed a harmless little Satanic ceremony in a graveyard. After all, the Satanic Temple and its members are based in New York, meaning—as the Huffington Post and the Gauntlet have mentioned—an arrest for charges filed in Mississippi is unlikely. Another statistic of interest concerning the Meridian Police Department is the number of officers they employ. If they were understaffed due to city budget issues, their stratospheric crime rate might be understandable. As of 2011, however, the department had 109 full-time law-enforcement employees, 98 of them officers. Hate to go all stat nerd over here, but that comes out to 2.37 police officers per 1,000 people. The Mississippi average is two officers per 1,000 residents. Why, then, was the violent crime rate in Meridian in 2010 higher than the Mississippi average by 89.29 percent? Could be because the department spends its time doing stupid shit like chasing Satanists from New York City. I reached out to Captian Harper for comment, but he has not returned my call. When I asked Lucien, via email, what he made of all this, he told me "We caused no material damage to anything, and the cemetery was left exactly as it was when we entered it. I’m not sure which part of this is most problematic for the sheriff—the displays of homosexuality, or the Satanism. I do know that the combination of the two is bound to cause absolute havoc among the superstitious homophobic."

After 30 years in the music business, Weird Al Yankovic has finally broken through. Hadley Freeman asks the cult hero what it's like to be number one If you'd asked me 30 years ago whether I'd still be making parody albums, I'd have laughed," Weird Al Yankovic chortles. "And if you said the records would be selling more than ever, I'd have thought you were crazy." The past few weeks, however, have been the busiest of Yankovic's platinum record-studded career. His latest album, Mandatory Fun, entered the US charts at No 1, his first ever, and the first comedy album to reach such heights for over half a century. When he found out on an American talkshow, his eyes welled up with joy. How did he celebrate? "I had a burrito." It feels apt that Yankovic marked the event by eating, considering he originally made his name with food-based parody songs. There was My Bologna, his take on The Knack's My Sharona, and then his breakthrough song and video in 1984, Eat It, a shot-for-shot parody of Michael Jackson's Beat It. "People talk about overnight fame and usually that's an exaggeration, but in this case it really wasn't. MTV put the video on eight times a day, and it got very odd: as a person who was fairly anonymous his whole life, I'd suddenly be walking down the street and having people stare at me." To this day, one of the most thrilling-slash-weird moments of his thrilling-slash-weird career is from that era, when he was invited to a party in Beverly Hills for Paul McCartney, one of his great musical heroes. The publicist warned him beforehand that there was no chance he could meet McCartney. But, with the wiliness that would characterise his career, Yankovic squeezed his way through the crowd and tapped McCartney's shoulder. "Oh, Weird Al!" cried McCartney, before turning to his wife Linda. "Look, honey, it's Weird Al!" "I basically exploded on the spot," Yankovic happily recalls. Yankovic, 54, writes original songs, as well as films and books, but he is best known for his parodies. His career raises two questions: first, how can a man who mocks others' songs be adored by fans and artists alike? And, second, how can he possibly stay relevant after three decades in the business? After all, many of the artists Yankovic first riffed off in the 80s have long ago slipped into irrelevancy, while he is bigger than ever. Yankovic performs White & Nerdy Yankovic performs White & Nerdy. Photograph: Chris Polk/FilmMagic The second question can be answered by looking at his strategy for Mandatory Fun. Earlier this month, Yankovic released one song and video a day for eight days across a range of what he calls "internet portals" (Yankovic is as comfortable talking web jargon as he is sharing celebrity anecdotes), including Vevo, Yahoo and YouTube. It was a move born out of necessity. After the release of his last album, Alpocalypse, his record label told him it couldn't afford to help him make videos for his next project. Any other artist would have raged at corporate stupidity and painted "slave" on his face. Yankovic, however, is famously one of the nicest men in the business, even if the description makes him hoot with laughter. "I hope I'm a decent guy," he objects, "but I think fame amplifies your personality and people's responses to it, so people are like, 'Wow, Al is the nicest guy in the world!'" Instead of griping, he went to various internet sites and offered to give them the video exclusives if they would fund them. "It worked out well for everybody," he says, with some understatement. He has since been praised as "a savvy internet machine", although some have been baffled by his tactics (in a hilariously awkward interview, Yankovic patiently had to teach a Fox Business anchor how the internet works.) "I'm just interested in following along with the zeitgeist and not getting left behind because I'm using some antiquated business model," he says. "I don't know why other people wouldn't do that as well."

Eight is Enough star STILL living in a dilapidated trailer Things have gone from bad to worse for “Eight Is Enough” star Susan Richardson The down-on-her-luck actress still lives in a run-down trailer in a Pennsylvania campground and gets by on a paltry $2,000 monthly pension. But now she’s been hit by the devastating one-two punch of losing her mother and her dog at the same time! “My mother, Rachel, and my beloved dog, Honey Bunches of Oats, died on the same day!” said a heartbroken Susan, 62 “My dog died early in the morning and my mother passed later that night. She hadn’t even been sick! It nearly sent me over the edge! Oh, my God, I miss them so much.” Susan – who played fourth oldest sibling Susan Bradford on the hit TV series from 1977 to 1981 – lives in a 28-foot 1960 Avion trailer in the Birchview Farm Campground in Wagontown, a place which has been called “a dilapidated dump.” Her acting career hit the skids after “Eight Is Enough,” and Susan wrestled with addictions to both cocaine and painkillers. She eventually beat her drug demons, and moved to Wagontown to be close to her mother, who lived in the nearby town of Collegeville. But recently she’s suffered from a number of new health problems. She’s diabetic, has had three strokes and lost all her teeth to an incurable digestive tract condition. The condition triggered spasms in her esophagus, and caused her to regurgitate stomach bile, which eroded her teeth and caused infection, she explained. “The dentist had to pull all my teeth,” she said of the ordeal. “Fortunately, I now have false teeth that my daughter bought for me.” At one time, the disorder also triggered such intense stabbing pain that Susan stopped eating, and dropped from 167 to 107 pounds. “I’ve gained some of that weight back, but it’s still hard for me to get food down,” she said, adding that she underwent additional surgery on her esophagus in July. Choking back tears, Susan revealed her neighbors thought she’d died last winter. “Someone called the police to the campground, telling them there was a dead old lady in one of the trailers. And they arrived at my place!” she recalled. “The snow had drifted all the way up to the top of my camper. The police showed up and they ended up digging me out. “I had no electricity or heat for five or six days. "But I survived…just like I always do,” she concluded.

Poster linked... Paramount quickly retracts the promo poster featuring the Australian release date for TMNT The upcoming Michael Bay-produced Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is set to open on September 11th in Australia, which was today highlighted by a new promotional poster published to Paramount's Twitter and Facebook streams. The image was quickly retracted, however, after users reacted angrily to the combination of its release date and the artwork above it, depicting the four turtles jumping out of an exploding skyscraper. Evoking the tragic events of the World Trade Center attacks in New York 13 years ago was certainly not Paramount's intention, as evidenced by the fact that this particular poster had already been used a week earlier, albeit without the offending opening date. And, unlike AT&T last year, Paramount's blunderous tweet made the connection accidentally rather than trying to exploit the date to sell its product. Still, it's a significant faux pas for the film studio to make and won't endear the TMNT reboot any more to an audience that's already dubious about how far it's strayed from the original material.

I live in the northeast. The first time I pulled one of these suckers off me was in 2005. I looked up "tick white dot" on the internet and up came the Lone Star tick. I was assured it went no further north than Georgia and that it didn't cause disease. The following year the internet said, "Oh by the way, it causes something calked STARI, but it's no big whoop. A rash, a little fatigue and you're good to go." The internet finally found out lone star ricks had traveled to the northeast in late 2007. Still, it only caused STARI. I've been bitten by these things at least 7 times. Fuckers. Now it causes ehrlichiosis! Rocky Mountain Sootted fever and a red meat allergy. I showed a nasty tick bite to my doctor yesterday and he told me it's now believed they can cause Lyme disease. No big deal, I've had Lyme and it wasn't bad. BUT THESE FUCKING LONE STAR TICKS are everywhere and their bites really hurt and swell up. Is anybody else being tormented by these suckers?

I recently discovered this series and am now midway through the second season. It's fun, and I'm in love with the Celia character. I'm beginning to dislike the lead actress though. She has a weird way of acting and the character herself is not a very good person. Does the series maintain the level of fun and interest it projects in the first two seasons? Does it become dark? Do we lose any of the currently major characters (Like Celia, her adorable bear husband, Kevin Nealan, Halia, the dreadlocked pot dealer)? What was the reception like when this series began? I remember hearing about it and apparently it was good enough to stick around for a few years, but I'm not sure how far it can go when she's a major pot dealer with a DEA husband, who nobody knows about yet except one of her grower colleagues.

It seems the whole decade was full of people obsessed with any decade other than the current one. There was 1930s nostalgia, 1950s nostalgia, and the seeds for 1960s nostalgia were being sewn. Was it a reaction to all the bad things going on or was it a deliberate distraction from them?

Goldberg defends the context in which ESPN's Stephen A. Smith made his original remarks, referencing how the wife of Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice mentioned that she hit him first Even though Stephen A. Smith apologized for saying that women sometimes provoke getting hit, Whoopi Goldberg is still coming to his defense. On Monday's “The View,” Goldberg was vehemently defending the context in which Smith made his original remarks, referencing how the wife of Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice mentioned that she hit him first. According to Goldberg, women should be taught from a young age the lesson “Don't be surprised if you hit a man, he hits you back.” She went on to say, “If you make the choice as a woman who is 4'3” and you decide to hit a guy who is 6 foot tall and you're the last thing you want he wants to deal with that day and he hits you back, you cannot be surprised.” Of course, the rest of the panel was saying that a man should never hit a woman, and in principle Whoopi agreed, but she was advocating that women should learn to keep it under control themselves. “I know I'm going to catch a lot of hell, and I don't care. But you have to teach women, do not live with this idea that men have this chivalry thing still with them, don't assume that that is still in place.”

OCEAN BEACH (CA) -- A bumper sticker that reads "Welcome to Ocean Beach/ Please don't feed our homeless" is drawing mixed reactions. The sticker targets aggressive panhandlers, according to Ken Anderson, 42, who works at The Black, where the stickers are sold for $2.50 each. The stickers are a play on the National Park Service's "Please don't feed the bears" sticker. Anderson says he had the stickers printed a few weeks ago because people are tired of rude, young transients demanding spare change rather than asking for it. Anderson hopes the stickers will make the community realize the homeless population there is out of control. He's also had T-shirts and hats printed with the same message on them. Local business owner Chaz Lomack claims many of the young homeless in the area choose not to work, and in fact come from well-off families and have cell phones. According to Lomack, there have been incidents of violence against people who refuse to give them money. Meantime, Frank Gormlie, 62, who runs the local "OB Rag" blog, says the stickers send the wrong message about Ocean Beach, which he describes as a "place of laid-back tolerance." Gormlie feels the stickers carry a message of hate and dehumanize the homeless. He has asked Anderson to stop selling them. For his part, Anderson says his store will continue to sell the stickers as long as there's demand.

She discovered this summer she's got a lump on her thyroid--the biopsy came back inconcclusive, but her doctors have told her its likely that given her excess soy consumption that the lump is related to that. Even if the lump is not cancerous, she is likely going to have to have half or more of her thyroid removed. Is this link between excess soy consumption and subsequent thyroid problems well known? I had not heard of this before (I'm a meat eater).
Breaking news from the Television Critics Association, NBC has just revealed their next mega-TV musical, executive produced by Craig Zadan and Neil Meron - PETER PAN! The broadcast has been scheduled for December 4, 2014. Featuring the iconic songs "I'm Flying," "I've Gotta Crow," "I Won't Grow Up," and "Never Never Land," and a book full of magic, warmth, and adventure, PETER PAN is the perfect show for the child in all of us who dreamed of soaring high and never growing up. Based on J.M. Barrie's 1904 play and Barrie's own novelization of it, PETER PAN is a classic tale featuring a score by Morris "Moose" Charlap and Jule Styne with lyrics by Carolyn Leigh and Betty Comden and Adolph Green. It is one of the most beloved and frequently performed family favorites of all time. Originally directed and staged by Jerome Robbins, the 1954 Broadway production opened on October 20, 1954 at the Winter Garden Theatre in New York. It starred Mary Martin as Peter and Cyril Ritchard as Captain Hook. Both stars earned Tony Awards for their performances. It was followed by NBC telecasts of it in 1955, 1956, and 1960 with the same stars, plus several rebroadcasts of the 1960 telecast. The show has enjoyed several revivals onstage. In "live plus seven day" results, NBC's Dec. 5 telecast of "The Sound of Music Live" delivered a 5.62 rating in adults 18-49 and 21.837 million viewers overall, adding to the enormous audience the show attracted with its live telecast to make "The Sound of Music Live!" the #1 telecast on all of television for that Dec. 2-8 week in total viewers. Excluding sports, it's NBC's most-watched Thursday since the night of the "Frasier" finale (22.597 million on May 13, 2004). A total of 38.696 million viewers watched at least a portion of the Dec. 5 telecast of "The Sound of Music Live!" Including "live plus three day" results for the Dec. 14 encore, a total of 44.183 million viewers have watched at least a portion of NBC's telecasts of "The Sound of Music Live!" The presentation starred Grammy winner Carrie Underwood as 'Maria,' Audra McDonald ("Private Practice"), who has won five Tony Awards and two Grammys, as Mother Abbess; Stephen Moyer ("True Blood"), as Capt. Georg von Trapp; Tony Award winner Christian Borle ("Smash"), who portrayed von Trapp family friend Max Detweiler; and Tony winner Laura Benanti ("Go On"), who took on the role of Elsa Schrader, the captain's one-time fiancee.

Peaches set the music industry on its ears when it started out. The Peaches stores began opening in 1976 and at their peak there were approx 35 branches. \ \ Part of the Peaches tradition was to have large concrete squares along the sidewalks surrounding their stores. Musicians would be asked to sign and put their handprints into the squares like Mann''s Chinese Theater.\ \ They sold crates for albums that looked like old peach crates with the Peaches logo on the end labels.They also did brisk business in Peaches logo t-shirts. \ \ Peaches went belly up in 1985. Their downfall is they gambled and thought that consumers would not buy a thing called a Compact Disc.

I am watching Suzanne Pleshette in " Rome Adventure". She is so bad in this movie. And I don't remember ever watching her in a movie I liked her in -even "The Birds" which is probably her best film role. Certainly her most famous. But she was so watchable in " The Bob Newhart Show" . She has great chemistry with Bob Newhart. And she is beautiful. Didn't she date Johnny Carson or was that Angie( I slept with JFK )Dickinson? P.s. Can't stand Troy Donahue although he perfect in Godfather, Part 2. And he isn't really as handsome other people. He just looks like a frat boy in the mold of Greg Marmalard.

An interesting story all the way through. A couple of highlights: [quote]BuzzFeed spoke to nearly two dozen former TMZ employees, and it’s clear that Bieber’s tape was not the only near-priceless piece of dirt in the proverbial TMZ vault. (TMZ did not respond to multiple requests for comment.) According to these ex-employees, the sealed testimonies from the Michael Jackson molestation trial hide there as does footage of various celebrities — Bieber, Lohan, Travolta — behaving badly. The vault isn’t a secret at TMZ — even the lowest on the staff ladder have heard whispers of its existence. As to what goes up on the site and what stays vaulted, that’s a finer, more esoteric calculus — and one in which celebrities and their publicists have come to live in fear. [quote]Levin, according to one source, is “one of those gay men who’s just never been able to get along with women.” He’s stacked his organization with young, bro-ish men who help make the tone and feel of the website masculine and definitively non-gay. It’s not that Levin’s homophobic — he’s spoken openly about triumphing over his fears of being outed in his early career, and how he’s operated as a gay man in the contemporary mediascape — so much as he’s savvy as to the ways in which any hint of effeminacy on the site could repel the target demographic.

On my "Who wants to marry an ISIS militant thread," I read several comments describing "Man-boy-Love Thursdays." I thought it needed it's own thread, as there are several entries on the internet. Thursday among the Afghan Pashtuns is comparable to Saturday night in the USA. Apparently "Man-Love Thursdays" is fairly common in other Muslim countries where access to wives, especially during warfare, is restricted. At least that's the common excuse. Participants also claim that they are not gay or homosexual.

[quote]Orlando Bloom throws PUNCH at Justin Bieber outside Ibiza restaurant Jul 30, 2014 FURIOUS Orlando Bloom lost his temper and threw a PUNCH at pop star Justin Bieber before the pair were eventually separated. It’s been widely reported the actor’s ex-wife Miranda Kerr had got close to the 20-year-old while they were married. And Bloom’s behaviour would suggest there’s truth to the rumours after he sparked the altercation outside Cipriani restaurant in Ibiza, Spain, on Tuesday night. A source close to the situation said exclusively: “Orlando was clearly annoyed when he saw Justin and instigated the situation by taking a swing at him. “Luckily for both of them Justin ducked so Orlando’s punch missed. “Within seconds people intervened and there was some minor pushing and shoving between their entourages. Bieber mocked rival Bloom by posting a picture of Kerr. The pop star, 20, simply captioned the photo with an image of a crown fuelling rumours he DID hook up with the Australian model while she was married to Bloom. He promptly deleted the picture (above) from his Instagram page. A spokesperson for Justin, Miranda and Orlando have all been contacted.

By the National Enquirer When a Hollywood scandal sheet of the 1950s was going to OUT closeted heartthrob ROCK HUDSON, his manager cut a secret deal and outed another star instead! RORY CALHOUN, a rising star, was nearly blacklisted after Confidential magazine cut a secret deal by Hollywood studio ops to keep their biggest, seeming hetero, male star ROCK HUDSON safely in the closet. Calhoun, who was born Timothy Francis McCowan, had a troubled early life, drifting in and out of reform schools to hard time in San Quentin by the time he was 21. After his release, he met actor Alan Ladd's agent wife Sue Carol Ladd who introduced him to David O. Selznick Studio employee Henry Willson who managed a stable of hunky young men who showed "promise". Willson carefully groomed his young protégé, and changed his name to Rory Calhoun. Rory's first public appearance was as Lana Turner's male escort to the premiere of Hitchcock's Spellbound and after generating some PR heat, Selznick loaned Calhoun out to other studios. After costarring with Shirley Temple and tough guy Edward G. Robinson, Calhoun's star was on the rise as he soon appeared in two Marilyn Monroe films How to Marry a Millionaire, and River of No Return. During Calhoun's big build-up, Willson kept a firm grip on his leash. After vetoing Calhoun's engagement to French sex kitten Corinne Calvet, Wilson did the unthinkable - he sold out one client to protect another. Shockingly, in 1955, Willson divulged hush-hush information and details about Calhoun's years behind bars to Confidential magazine in exchange for the mag to not print a bombshell exposé revealing the secret gay life of superstar Rock Hudson. Boldly, Calhoun trumped Confidential's "scoop" by going public first. The jailhouse revelation seemingly did little to damage Calhoun's reputation, solidifying his bad boy image to moviegoers - much like Robert Mitchum's post-marijuana bust in 1948. Yet, Calhoun never rose above B-movie status working more in European films like sword and sandal epic The Colossus of Rhodes and as a frequent guest star on TV shows before his death in 1999. Hudson remained in the closet to his legion of fans despite long-standing rumors until his death from AIDS in 1985. To Hollywood insiders, Rock's closeted truth was NO secret.
It seems like we're moving in that direction (slowly), but women have a big head start. One big reason is that pretty much every straight porno movie has some girl-on-girl action. So I think it has mainstream acceptance. Yet any hint of male-male contact, even non-sexual, still seems taboo in straight porn, and is relegated to the bisexual specialty market. Will this ever change? If so, will it be gradual? Will there be a watershed moment?

And no, I’m not talking about his face; life took an effed-up shit on that a long time ago. And then the sun dried it out. And then God sprinkled it with douche-salts and cured it like a piece of jerk-flavored jerky. And then your dog found it in the park and threw you a LIGAF?-face when you screamed “Scooter NOOO! Don’t eat that!” TMZ is reporting that they have the exclusive details of a domestic dispute between noted anal wart, Michael Lohan, and his girlfriend Kate Major at their home in Florida. It all began Monday evening when Kate locked herself in the bathroom after a fight with Michael, and mistook Twitter for 911 by tweeting: Threatening to take our son. What judge would rule for him??? Stuck inside a house with this guy? He has a knife. You know, just typical Twitter stuff. “Just tweeting about that time I locked myself in the bathroom with my son because my boyfriend was brandishing a knife! LULZ #SoRandom”. TMZ then says that a source close to the couple (Michael holding his finger above his lip like a pretend moustache) claims that Kate’s erratic behavior worried Michael enough to call 911 (…right after calling TMZ). When police arrived, Michael told officers that Kate was drunk and he worried for the safety of his son, but neither Michael nor Kate would leave the house. Because being a hysterical attention-starved mess isn’t against the law in Florida, police left the Lohan-Major home without arresting either of those dum-dums. Kate went on to delete the crazy shit she said on Twitter and tweeted a weird apology, while Michael kept hitting TMZ’s number on speed dial until someone picked up so he could sell out his girlfriend as a drunk, crazy mess. Michael told TMZ that Kate is a lie-telling liar who’s drinking has gotten so out of control that she tried to kill herself this weekend and that if she doesn’t get help, he’s going to seek sole custody of their son, Landon. And because I hope it NEVER gets to that, I’m crossing my fingers that there’s a family of kindly swamp gators who will step forward and snatch baby Landon from his stroller in the parking lot of a Waffle House and raise him as one of their own.

Joey Luft remembers it well: appearing on the 1963 Christmas episode of his mother Judy Garland's CBS musical-variety series with his two older sisters, Lorna Luft and Liza Minnelli. On a recent afternoon, Luft was rewatching the show, his eyes wide and a smile dancing across his face as his younger self broke into "Where Is Love?" on the classic yuletide show. "She opened the show with 'Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas,'" said the 59-year-old Luft, a slight man who is a bundle of energy. "Our living room [of the Lufts' house] on Rockingham Avenue was copied so the Christmas show looked like our living room." Though half-sister Minnelli, who is an Oscar, Tony, Emmy and Grammy award-winner, and Lorna Luft have followed in their mother's footsteps, their baby brother has largely lived out of the public eye. "I've been more behind the camera," said Luft, who has studied photography and sound and has worked as a kind of editor-runner. Though he may not be famous, "I have a life that has been fascinating," said Luft, who appeared with his siblings at the Oscars this past March for a 75th anniversary tribute to "The Wizard of Oz," the 1939 classic that made Garland a star. "I can tell stories for days." He's finally getting the opportunity to tell the stories about his mother in "A Judy Garland Concert With Joey Luft," which opens Friday and continues through Sunday at the Pasadena Playhouse. The evening features colorized footage from "The Judy Garland Show" of the legend performing such standards as "Stormy Weather," "Come Rain or Come Shine" and of course "Over the Rainbow." In between clips, Luft and the show's producer, John Kimble, his childhood friend and longtime associate of his late father, producer Sid Luft, will talk about Garland. "It's just so fun just getting out there and talking about her and letting people know, 'Here's what really happened,'" said Luft in a recent interview at Kimble's Culver City home. "I don't want to talk about the bad things," said Luft, who was 14 in 1969 when his mother died of an overdose of barbiturates. "That isn't what my mom was about. She was a performer. She was a mother. She loved people. She was the most caring person. She had the greatest sense of humor." Luft stood up to imitate his mother when she guest-starred on NBC's "The Jack Paar Show." "He introduces my mom and she comes on stage with a broom," said Luft, as he mimes sweeping the floor. "She puts the broom down and walks over and sits down with Jack and said 'People told me I would clean up in this business.'" The story lead to another memory of watching a hockey game with Lorna and Garland in his mother's bedroom. "My mom was kind of tired and she looked kind of frustrated," said Luft. "I said 'How do you feel? She looks at us, walks over to the TV and she goes, 'How do I feel? See that hockey game? You know the puck? That how I feel." And she walks off. Then we started laughing." His father was Garland's third husband and is credited with resurrecting her career after she was fired from MGM in 1950. He colorized the black-and-white "Judy Garland Show" before his death in 2005 at the age of 89. "It took us years and years to do because there was so much detail and so much work to go into it," said Luft. "My dad spent so much money that near the end of his life he went broke because he put so much into it. He wanted to put a show together." "We have cleaned up all the audio and made it look like it was shot yesterday," added Kimble. Kimble said that they have booked a fall tour of the show in Canada, invited theaters to a workshop production of the show a few weeks ago in Culver City and currently are making tweaks to the evening before they open in Pasadena. The playhouse will also have an exhibit of rare photos from Garland's life and career as well as Michael Siewert's collection of costumes from many of her classic films. Luft's siblings won't be attending the show. Lorna lives in Palm Springs and is awaiting the birth of a grandchild. "Liza is in New York," said Luft. "She was going to come out and see the show but she couldn't make it out." Luft hopes his show will keep the memory of his mother and her talent alive for years to come. "They know 'The Wizard of Oz,' but people don't even know Judy," said Luft, who added that he could listen to her recordings for hours. "The show is to educate people and show who she was and what she did and what she was all about — one of the world's greatest entertainers."

His incessant pandering, his condescension and Narcissism have always rubbed me the wrong way. I get that he wants to do some good in this world and he has had to become more "sensitive" than the average straight man, due to the fact that he is partially deaf and his father was killed during a bar brawl over a decade ago. Still, his vanity "foundation" and the way he shamelessly exploits gay men desperate for any morsel of acceptance from hot straight men (especially if they, like Cohen, are always ambiguous about their "intentions" and really flirty), make him appear like a MAJOR creep. Is it so difficult for washed up rugby players to make a living, that they have to fill their pockets by pretending to care about something that doesn't really affect them, and they never really cared about until their careers were dying and they needed to find a new source of income as fast as possible? I just find the whole situation tawdry, and the pathetic queens who flock around this guy like butterflies and defend him like a pack of pubescent girls would defend Harry Styles, are an embarrassment (and the reason why he is loaded and can afford to pay his wife a £120K salary for doing nothing).

There are still a few left, but it was such an omnipresent sort of figure in gay life once upon a time. Look at John McCourt, Terrence Mcnally, Albert Innaurato, Wayne Koestenbaum... all of them are still alive, of course; but all of them are at least over 50. I just cannot name that many gay men under 50 who still deeply care about opera. If you revived the play "The Lisbon Traviata" today, I don't think many gay men would universally recognize the type the way they did when the play was written. Why did this type of gay man die out? I'm not sure I really mourn it, since opera queens were often (though not always) mean, sour, and snobby.

The Karen Walker thread reminded me of how many great lines the writers crafted for her. The writing was excellent in general and had hilarious bitchy one-liners; and some episodes are certainly classics (like the spelling bee at the gay bar, or the final episode where Beverly Lesley dies by being blown off the balcony).\ \ But the Will character was so dislikeable and unpleasant. And though I like Sean Hayes, the Jack character, which could sometimes be very funny, was such a collection of nasty stereotypes about gay men.

A 36-year-old woman who had sex with a 12-year old-boy has been jailed for 10 years. Joy Leaann McCall, from Ocala, Florida, had sex three times with the young boy who was the same age as her own children. She was given 10 years in prison for each charge of lewd or lascivious battery on a child between 12 and 15 but told the sentence would run concurrently. McCall pleaded guilty to the second degree felony charges and was given a 134 day credit for time already spent in jail. The court heard that the 12-year-old, who has not been named, told police that he received Facebook messages from the woman. He said the messages 'continued to get more heated' and he later received photos of her posing in underwear. McCall arranged to meet the boy at a local shopping mall where she picked him up and ended up having sex in the back seat of her car. The boy claimed he contacted her again five days later. She collected him and drove him to some woods, where they had sex again.
