Two sitcoms about a middle-aged woman who served as a sort of den mother for a quartet of rambunctious boarding school girls debuted in 1979. The Facts of Life starred Charlotte Rae & Dorothy starred Dorothy Loudon as teacher / surrogate mother figure. Both Rae and Dorothy Loudon were Broadway veterans – they knew each other, had vied for some of the same roles. CBS executives saw in Annie and thought she would be PERFECT for a TV sitcom about a den mother. What no one had told CBS was something that the company of Annie had discovered very quickly: that Loudon, in the words of the show’s composer Charles Strouse, “really, genuinely, sincerely, hated children . . . . She was very ill-natured, in that respect.” Loudon would shoo away not only the many little girls in the show’s cast but also the dog, Sandy, whom she also despised. Doubtless she was less than thrilled that, in her bid for more widespread recognition, the baggage of Annie made youngsters an unavoidable part of the package. While Loudon’s pedophobia might have been perfect for the larger-than-life hostility of Miss Hannigan, it couldn’t work for a den-mother sister to Mrs. Garrett. “Dorothy really didn’t like the kids, I don’t think,” director Alan Shayne said. “And although she was at war with the kids, you had to feel that she also loved them. That didn’t really work. Dotty was a tough lady, you know. She had a lot of hostility.” Loudon’s husband, a television arranger and composer named Norman Paris, had died unexpectedly just six weeks after she won the Tony for Annie, upending her personal life just as she reached her professional peak. Kip Gilman also observed Loudon’s discomfort around her young co-stars, and thought that Linda Manz (the "Jo" character in Dorothy) – a casting director’s off-the-streets discovery whose experience up to that point had been limited to Terrence Malick’s highly idiosyncratic style of moviemaking – was especially ill-at-ease with the demands of performing comedic material in front of a live audience. Gilman suggested that, as a consequence of all that, the other three episodes may have been altered to reduce the girls’ roles and build up the screen time of the (still underdeveloped) faculty characters.

The star of "The Marriage of Bigaro" seems to be reinflating to previous proportions. [quote]The ENQUIRER previously revealed that the former co-host of the daytime talk show had secret gastric bypass surgery in 2003. Star shrunk from 307 pounds to a slender 140 pounds, while lying to loyal “View”-ers that she was shedding the weight through diet and exercise. Now experts believe Star’s weight has broken the dreaded 200-pound barrier in just the past year. “She looks as if she weighs about 220 pounds,” said Dr. Sue Decotiis, who has not treated Star. “Surgery is only effective if the patient adheres to the lifestyle changes.”

You probably haven't spent too much time thinking about Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman's marriage lately, but a new documentary is going to change that. Going Clear, Alex Gibney's exposé on the Church of Scientology, makes some shocking claims about Cruise, one of the church's most famous (and infamous) members. The film suggests that the Church of Scientology intimidated Cruise into breaking up with Kidman because they were suspicious of her father, a prominent psychologist. In fact, her dad's position put Kidman on the "Potential Trouble Source" list, which the church says is for people "who are in some way connected to and being adversely affected by a suppressive person." Going Clear also claims that between 1992 and 2001, Kidman pressured Cruise into distancing himself from the Church of Scientology. When Cruise went MIA from the organization, his silence allegedly made Church head David Miscavige so angry that he tasked second-in-command Marty Rathbun with "facilitating the breakup between Tom and Nicole," Rathbun says in the film. According to Rathbun, the church started a task force to get Cruise to dump Kidman, which included wiretapping her phone—Cruise's suggestion—and sending the tapes to Miscavige. The Church also "audited" Cruise by gathering every bit of personal intel they could dig up. This information was purportedly given to Miscavige, who later shamed Cruise for his "perverted" sexual fetishes. And what's worse than having "perverted" sexual fetishes (whatever that means in this context), the Church attempted to turn Cruise and Kidman's adopted children—Connor and Isabella—against their mother so Cruise could take custody. In 2001, Miscavige got his wish. The couple divorced and Cruise, who became more active in the Church, went on to receive their Freedom Medal of Valor, which is given to a person who "brings greater freedom to mankind." Going Clear also suggests that the Church of Scientology goes out of its way to please Cruise by buying him limos, airplanes, and once, they even created a meadow for Cruise and Kidman to frolic in, which was apparently one of Cruise's greatest fantasies. This is all particularly interesting in light of the rumors that cropped up during Katie Holmes's divorce from Cruise in 2012, which also claimed that Scientology got in the way. Add these to the Maybe Don't Date a Scientologist file...

Mine was 1988. I was 15 and over the summer had lost over 50 pounds so started the new school year slimmer and feeling much better about myself. I got my first part time job, started seeing the gay world around me and actually made a couple of friends. TV and movies were fun and so was the music. I buckled down and started working harder at school to pull my grades up. I learned to ignore my father's abuse which was liberating.

He's an engineer and makes $500k a year. They live in a gorgeous home in Dallas, she has a nanny for the kids. Ill grant that he's not the nicest guy in the world, but he's hardly ever home. She says she has reason to believe that he screws around on her when he's out of town. I told her she needs a reality check. She's got a rather well-off husband. She doesn't have to work or take care of the kids. If he's got other women, then she doesn't even have to fuck him anymore. I'm trying to talk some sense into her, but she's rather idealistic. She's got no good reason to leave. Besides, he works so much that he'll probably keel over from a heart attack soon enough. And if he leaves her, she can take him to the cleaners. Texas is a community property state. Is there anything else I can say to make her see the light?

I've been going to a public indoor pool to swim a couple times a week for $5 admission. Yesterday I met this young str8 guy of 24 there who struck up a conversation. He has dark olive skin, buzzed hair and slim with a washboard stomach with a couple of tats here and there. I think he's a blatino. Not sure, but nice looking and a pleasant demeanor. Right off I told him I was gay to get that out of the way. He said he was "cool with it" and whispered in my ear he was wanting to get into some BDSM "with a dude" and wondered if I would suck his dick "and shit." So I took him home and tied his arms and legs to the four posts of my bed and worked on edging his dick for over an hour. His prick got real hard with the veins engorged with blood. The head was hard as a rock. He was thrusting and thrashing around begging me to untie him so he could cum. I kept working on his dick bringing him close to cumming and stopping. He was going fucking nuts. After the hour I started wanting to get him to explode so I untied him. As soon as he was free, while clutching his super hard dick (was about 9 inches cut I'd estimate and thick), he shouted for me to "get into doggy position." I did fast as he was like breathing hard, sweating and wanted to fuck bad. He rammed his prick all the way down to his balls into my ass. It fucking hurt. And then he pumped the shit out of me with that hard dick like a maniac. He cried out, "fuck... here it comes" and I felt a blast of his cum spray deep up my rectum. He kept pumping it deep into me as he came. After he was done he pulled his dick out slow as it was sensitive and threw himself down on his back on my bed, his dick still semi-hard but going flaccid. "Best fuck I ever had... better than pussy" he said in appreciation, while I felt gobs of his cum dribble out of my hole dripping down my leg. I guess the moral of the story is work on foreplay for a long while if you want to get fucked good. Bye
It looks like LGBT activist Dan Savage is making his next move. The "It Gets Better" founder is slated to be the focus of a semi-autobiographical, single-camera comedy on ABC, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The show, still untitled, will follow the younger years of Savage's life and the experiences of his family following his decision to come out of the closet. "What seems like the end of their idyllic life turns out to be the beginning of a bright new chapter when everyone stops pretending to be perfect and actually starts being real," The Hollywood Reporter notes. According to Entertainment Weekly, "David Windsor and Casey Johnson will write and executive-produce with Savage, Brian Pines and Dan McDermott."

We bought a double-headed dildo and go ass-to-ass. Then we get into a scissoring position and rub our taints together until we cum. It's totally hot. Surely we're not the only gay men to have discovered this?!
I'm out of town, alone in a hotel and I wanted a massage with release. Couldn't find a guy at this later so I called a service. It was promised that she would be pretty but she wasn't at all and she had a horrible wig that wasn't even on right. I think she was in her 50s. She had no massage skills and her hands were cold. I asked if I could fuck her. It did nothing for me, partially because I'm on a medication that makes it hard to cum. Then I asked for a handjob but that didn't work either so I told her I was done and that she could leave. Cost me $180. What is wrong with me? I'm gay by the way.

Ok, so I'm relatively new to gay life and one thing I have found to be curious (well, "one" of the things) is this: Many gay men are not readily identifiable in style or demeanor...seems there are all types. But why is it so different for lesbians. I would say that probably 95% of lesbians that I've met or seen around all look the same: the short kind of style-less haircuts, masculine or "sporty" clothes, no make-up, little if any adornments (except sometimes little earrings, which I think look rather ridiculous considering all the rest.) I have a neighbor who is a lesbian and we have become friendly. She is very stylish and pretty "glam", but also frustrated and unhappy. She does not like butchy types at all, yet that is mostly what she encounters when she is out and about. Are lesbians in general so dull and non-inventive that they all feel they have to look alike? Is it just a way to recognize each other? My neighbor says she likes women who look and act like women, that's why she's a lesbian in the first place. Nothing wrong with stereotypes,I guess, but I personally like defying stereotypes. Just curious.

Has anyone read this series of books or heard interviews with the author? It's outright frightening. Basically out of the thousands of missing people each year, dozens go missing in state parks. You might think there are easy explanations for the disappearances but for many, there aren't. In fact, just the opposite. The disappearances seem a slap in the face of logic. Here is just a bit of what I learned. - Most of the missing are never recovered. Those that are recovered alive tend to be children who are too young to talk, children who are mentally disabled or handicapped and thus can't tell of their experiences, and children who have amnesia and have no memories of their experience. - Clothing and other items are found in the opposite direction from which the remains are found, in the few cases where the remains are found. It's like someone is purposefully trying to deceive people by leaving a trail of personal belongings far away from where the body actually is. -Clothing is often found in an extremely bizarre fashion, something which would occur if the person just vanished in the blink of the eye and the clothing just fell to the earth, talking about socks in shoes, pants on top of shoes, shirt on top of pants. -People have disappeared while only being feet away from another person or merely going out of sight for mere seconds. In one case a family was walking up a hill. A female family member was walking faster and made it up and over the hill just seconds before the family did. When the family made it over the hill they were shocked that the woman was nowhere in sight. She was never recovered and is presumed dead. In another case a man literally watched a boy disappear. The boy was accompanying him and decided to return to camp. There was a clear line of sight from their location all the way to camp. Halfway there the man turned his attention briefly to something he was working on, talking seconds, and the boy was just gone. -Many of the children who are recovered, and remember they usually are too young to talk or can't tell of what happened to them, are found naked and barefoot with no sign of injuries to the soles of their feet. If they had been walking around barefoot in the wilderness they surely would have cuts and sores on their feet. -In many cases Park authorities either try to hinder any researchers from having access to files on the disappearances or lie and claim that no such files exist. In other circumstances they want an absurd amount of money, even up to over a million dollars, before releasing the files. In at least one case the Park authorities and I think the police refused to release case files even though the disappearance was not ruled as a homicide. Even the intervention of a senator have not been successful in getting the files release. When the parents of the missing girl asked for the files they too were told no. Luckily, a few Park employees have acted as whistle blowers and tipped of the author of weird goings-on in state parks across the country. -One girl who was recovered after being missing for days had no memory of her experience only except that a wolf took care of her. The girl showed no signs of starvation or dehydration. If you are looking for something spooky, definitely look this guy up and hear his interviews and read the books if you can. Oh, and he has never said what is going on. He doesn't know.

There are men, particularly some straight men, who will not wear the color pink. There are even some women who think that it is inappropriate for men to wear the color pink. I knew a an Indian man who wanted to wear a pink shirt but it was his wife who forbade him to wear it. This really upset him and also confused him. It's simply a color. A color that has been empowered by some. So, let's celebrate men wearing the color pink. Pink shirts; pink underwear; pink socks; pink ties; pink, pink, pink!!!

Micke Ekvall finished the race in 21st place. In a post-race interview, a reporter asked him, "Did you ever consider stopping to clean off?" "No, I'd lose time," he explained, "If you quit once, it's easy to do it again and again and again. It becomes a habit." "Despite the enormous problems with stomach cramps that lasted between two and 12 kilometers, Micke completed his goal," Swedish site Jesper.nu reported, "He did fine with [a time of] 1:09:43 and came in a creditable 21st. This is despite the misery! Imagine what he could accomplish without a bad stomach." The poop man, now 25 years old, has accomplished quite a bit since then. He ran the same race the following year, placing 9th. He went on to set a Swedish national record at the Copenhagen half-marathon in 2014, and represented Sweden at the European Athletic Championships. Ekvall's story is truly an inspirational one: Never quit. If you can live down running around in public with your own feces streaming off your bare legs, you can live down practically anything. Either that or never, ever, leave the house, because anything you do could go horribly wrong and everyone is looking at you. Whatever. It's up to each of us to receive the poop man's wisdom in our own way.
The former Hollywood home of Marlon Brando is on sale for a whopping £2.3million ($3.5million). It might not be On The Waterfront, but to buy this it you'll have to make an offer the agents can't refuse. The Godfather and Last Tango in Paris actor's stunning home has panoramic views over Sunset Strip and Los Angeles. Built in 1926, the Spanish-Mediterranean three-bed was revived by AF Leicht - once dubbed 'LA's quirkiest dead architect'. The dramatic, winding staircase and the wrought iron balcony give the house a massive dose of Old Hollywood glamour. The 4,363-square-foot house boasts three and a half bathrooms, flying buttresses and a red-tiled roof. Unsurprisingly for an A-list pad, there's a castle-like art studio perched above the master bedroom, which completes the upstairs. The magical Maison Marlon comes complete with a wine cellar with pebble floor, two-car garage and chauffeur's quarters. link is to Daily Mail, only because they have the best pictures

From President Obama's speech today, see below. This is why it's important to vote Democratic in the November election. We need more representatives who will fight for the working man and woman, to keep these gains from being reversed and to move forward with more gains. When President Obama was elected, businesses where laying off 800,000 people a month; today, they are hiring 200,000 people a month. The unemployment rate has dropped from 10.9% in 2009 to 6.1% today. Over the last 4.5 years, businesses have created 10 million new jobs. This is the longest uninterrupted stretch of job creation in our nation's history. There are more job openings now than anytime since 2001. During the Obama Administration, the US has put more people back to work than in Europe, Japan, and every other advanced economy COMBINED. Of course, there are people who are still struggling, that is why we need to vote Democratic in all offices this November, to elect people who will fight for the working man and woman. We can't afford to have these gains reversed.

We post a lot about individual films and awards and years - the best films, the worst actresses, who got robbed when, and so on. But what was the worst year ever, with the most Oscars gotten wrong, across the list of winners and categories? Going over the winners' lists, I was surprised at how many years managed to balance things out - terrible errors in some categories redeemed somewhat by getting others right (in my opinion). At the moment I think 2002 is the worst so far in the century. A BEAUTIFUL MIND, Ron Howard, Denzel Washington, Halle Berry, Jennifer Connelly, and A BEAUTIFUL MIND for adapted screenplay offer a mix of films and individuals that seem bad choices. But the all-time worst? I think the awards for 1967, the year of BONNIE AND CLYDE and THE GRADUATE, in which IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT won Best Picture, Steiger beat Beatty and Paul Newman, whose COOL HAND LUKE was wonderful, and Hepburn beat both Bancroft and Dunaway. Terrible. I don't fault the Kennedy and Parsons supporting awards, but from the lousy CAMELOT awards (beating BONNIE AND CLYDE for costumes and art direction), to ITHOTN winning editing with BONNIE AND CLYDE not even nominated, it was ridiculous. I love THOROUGHLY MODERN MILLIE but it beat Quincy Jones's tremendous IN COLD BLOOD for score. And even Best Song was absolute shit. "Talk to the Animals" beat "The Bare Necessities," "The Look of Love" and "Thoroughly Modern Millie." The money campaign to push DOCTOR DOLITTLE was infamous at the time, at its nomination for Best Picture cut such films as COOL HAND LUKE, WAIT UNTIL DARK, THE DIRTY DOZEN and IN COLD BLOOD out of recognition. 1944 was the shits, too, but not quite in the same way. And Hitchcock was robbed over and over.

1. Increasing money and credit by the Fed is not the same as increasing wealth. It in fact does the opposite. 2. More government spending is not equivalent to increasing wealth. 3. Liquidation of debt and correction in wages, salaries, and consumer prices is not the monster that many fear. 4. Corrections, allowed to run their course, are beneficial and should not be prolonged by bailouts with massive monetary inflation. 5. The people spending their own money is far superior to the government spending it for them. 6. Propping up stock and bond prices, the current Fed goal, is not a road to economic recovery. 7. Though bailouts help the insiders and the elite 1%, they hinder the economic recovery. 8. Production and savings should be the source of capital needed for economic growth. 9. Monetary expansion can never substitute for savings but guarantees mal–investment. 10. Market rates of interest are required to provide for the economic calculation necessary for growth and reversing an economic downturn. 11. Wars provide no solution to a recession/depression. Wars only make a country poorer while war profiteers benefit. 12. Bits of paper with ink on them or computer entries are not money – gold is. 13. Higher consumer prices per se have nothing to do with a healthy economy. 14. Lower consumer prices should be expected in a healthy economy as we experienced with computers, TVs, and cell phones.

Let's ignore the fact that now real estate agents include garage square footage as part the house square footage to make the house seem bigger than it really is. I'm annoyed with people--like my brother and sisters--who have garages but use them for storage. My brother turned his two door garage into a "games room". My older sister uses hers to store off season stuff; winter stuff in the summer, summer stuff in the winter. My younger sister uses hers to store every fucking article of clothing she's ever bought for herself and her family. She has leg warmers she wore in the mid-eighties packed away. I would give my left nut to have a place with a garage just so I don't have to clean snow and ice off my car.

A New York City man who made his political name over the claim that "the rent is too damn high" may soon not have a place to live. Jimmy McMillan, who ran for governor in 2010, said Tuesday he's facing an eviction notice that says he has to leave his rent-stabilized Manhattan apartment on St. Mark's Place by Feb. 5. McMillan filed papers in federal court in Brooklyn last week seeking a stay of the eviction notice. His attorney has filed with a state appeals court as well, seeking a stay of the eviction order which stems from a dispute in housing court. McMillan's attorney, John DeMaio, said Lisco Holdings had brought a case against McMillan a couple of years ago. In the course of dealing with that issue, DeMaio said McMillan's rent became overdue. He said a judge recently refused to allow McMillan to pay a sum that would have covered most of the amount due and then make up the rest and instead issued the eviction order. He is appealing that refusal. McMillan said his landlord wants him out to be able to charge market rent to someone else. "The bottom line is, they want me out for more money," he said. He has lived in the East Village building since 1977, he said. A call to the landlord company and an email to its attorneys were not answered.

Poor Karen de la Carierre! She was married to the President of $cientology, Heber Jentzch, and she had a son with him. David Miscavige broke up their marriage when they petitioned to have a second child. In the late '00s, after their son had been unable to speak to his father for six years, and Karen discovered that Heber was being held prisoner in the Hole, she started posting anonymously on the Internet. When the cult discovered it in 2010, they made her son disconnect from her. Then, a few years later, her son died of pneumonia. He died of pneumonia because he didn't have money to see a doctor and get treatment, which his mother would have helped him with if she had known. She found out from a stranger on Facebook that her son was dead. He was only 27 years old. The cult wouldn't even let her see her son's body before it was cremated. Ever since, Karen has been out for BLOOD. She has a YouTube channel called SurvivingScientology where she regularly posts videos about Scientology culture and interviews with ex-Sea Org members. She is justified in doing this, right?? Well, the cult doesn't think so. To add insult to her injury, they made a hate video of her accusing her of being a prostitute! It's about 3 minutes into the video...

Producer Alan Ladd’s Wife Accuses Bill Cosby of Drugging, Raping Her in 1969 January 26, 2015 | 11:57AM PT, Variety Staff Cindra Ladd, a former film industry exec and wife of producer Alan Ladd Jr., is the latest woman to accuse Bill Cosby of raping and drugging her years ago. In a first-person article published by Huffington Post, Ladd recounts her experience with Cosby when she was 21 and working for producer Ray Stark in New York. Ladd asserts that after becoming friendly in a non-sexual way with Cosby, one evening as the two were heading to a movie he gave her a pill that he said would help her headache. “For more than 45 years I have tried to recall exactly what happened that night. To this day it remains a blur. I have a vague recollection of feeling like I was floating while walking through Times Square and watching some kind of Japanese samurai movie with him. I don’t remember where the theater was nor very much of the evening,” Ladd wrote. “What I do recall, vividly and clearly, is waking up the next morning nude in the bed of his friend’s apartment and seeing Cosby wearing a white terrycloth bathrobe and acting as if there was nothing unusual. It was obvious to me that he had had sex with me. I was horrified, embarrassed and ashamed.” Ladd wrote that it “never occurred to me” to contact law enforcement, given Cosby’s stature as an entertainer and in an era before “date rape” was recognized as crime. She told her husband about the incident nine years ago when another woman accused Cosby of similar acts, Ladd wrote. Ladd joins more than two dozen women who have come forward during the past few months to accuse Cosby of drugging and sexually assaulting them. The scandal has cost the 77-year-old comedian a sitcom development deal at NBC and a comedy special that was to air in November on Netflix. Ticket sales to Cosby’s live appearances have fallen sharply in many cities although he has dates scheduled through at least May, according to his website. Reps for Cosby have denied many of the allegations. Friends and family members, including his wife Camille, have recently criticized the news media for the damage done to the entertainer’s reputation and for failure to scrutinize the women making the claims. Reps for Cosby did not immediately respond to a request for comment regarding Ladd’s allegations.

Bruce Jenner is transforming into a woman and is documenting it for a reality show of his own. Well ... that explains a lot. The former Olympic decathlon champ will discuss his ongoing transformation on an upcoming episode of "Keeping Up With the Kardashians," according to Us Weekly. Jenner has been the butt of jokes and the source of rumor and speculation for months, as his appearance has become more feminine. InTouch magazine superimposed Jenner's face onto the body of "Dynasty" actress Stephanie Beacham for the cover of its Jan. 26 issue. "He feels like he doesn't have anything to lose," a source told Us Weekly. Jenner's family has been mostly supportive. His stepdaughter Khloe Kardashian posted a picture with him on Instagram on Jan. 26, captioned "Father/Daughter time." Jenner's other stepdaughter Kim Kardashian earlier this week told Entertainment Tonight, "I think everyone goes through things in life, and I think that story and what Bruce is going through, I think he'll share whenever the time is right. I feel like that's his journey to talk about." She was also quoted recently as saying Jenner was "as happy" as she has ever seen him. Jenner split from wife Kris Jenner in 2013. Since then, he's grown his hair, been seen wearing nail polish, and had surgery to shave his Adam's apple. At the time, he told TMZ "I just never liked my trachea." Well, that's probably true. When questioned about her estranged husband's changing looks, Kris Jenner dismissed the talk as "silly." Us Weekly reported the 65-year-old Jenner -- who was married twice before meeting his latest wife in 1990 and has kids with all three wives -- was already "taking steps to live as a woman" when he met the Kardashian matriarch. A source reportedly said Jenner "had gone to doctors, started plastic surgery, and begun the transition." Kris supposedly talked him out of it, but the issue was reportedly a source of tension throughout their marriage. They filed for divorce last fall. While most of the family is on board with Jenner's transition, Us Weekly quoted sources saying Kris has "refused to accept the truth" and remains in "denial" and "she has made no attempts to understand" what Jenner is going through.

It was Andrew's sixth night of freshman year at Brown University when he was assaulted by a male student in his dorm bathroom. When Andrew brought on-campus charges, his assailant was expelled. Unlike myriad students who report mishandled cases in the burgeoning national campaign against sexual assault, Andrew initially believed his case was handled appropriately. But after The Huffington Post discovered Andrew’s assailant had previously been found responsible for assaulting two other students and had not been expelled, Andrew was devastated. Andrew has decided to share his story in hopes that victims of assault -- and specifically male victims -- be taken more seriously. “It’s time to include male survivors’ voices,” he said. “We are up against a system that’s not designed to help us.”

Did anyone see this film? It's very good, but I'm not sure if it did well outside the Pacific region. I like the ambiguity that you cannot tell whether there is a monster or if she is just going mad. I would love a copy of the picture book, but cannot find one anywhere - I guess I would have to make my own one?
She''s always going on and on about the lyrics she''s writing for this play or that play; sadly for her though, the plays are usually playing at some tiny theater in Michigan.\ \ She name drops all of these obscur Broadway music people, always making sure to refer to them as "famous" or "legendary". \ \ When did she decide she''s such a great singer/entertainer? Was she doing this back when she had the show with the old gay guy or is it a new thing for her?
This is good for a laugh! I got this list from, I kid you not, "www.IsMySpouseGay.com". It says it is a "survival guide for straight couples". LOL!!! 1. Suspicious non-verbal communication with other men -- a look, a touch or hug that lasts a little too long or seems to be intimate. 2. Possession of homosexual pornography (videos, magazines, photos stored on his computer). If your husband has consistently viewed homosexual pornography, on the computer (check the history in your internet browser!) remember that he probably would not be doing this if he did not enjoy it. It is simply too risky an activity to merely "check out". 3. Your husband's inability to be sexually aroused by you. If sexual activity steeply declines within the first few years of marriage, or if you're always more sexually aggressive than your husband, don't think it is all your fault! 4. An abundance of male friends with whom he seems to be too close or too familiar. Watch out if your husband spends too much alone time with one man or a small group of men. This is a sign that perhaps your husband is gay. At the very least, you can suspect that he is involved with his male friend(s) with a level of intimacy that he should be saved for you. Trust your instincts if he spends a great deal of time with one man or a few without inviting you to the party. If you really feel as though something strange is going on, there is probably a reason. 5. Lots of phone calls from other men. If they are men you don't know or men that your husband does not willingly tell you about (such as an old friend from high school who happened to get in touch with him), be concerned. 6. Buying or receiving expensive, intimate, or overly personal gifts from other men. 7. A consistent overreaction to anything concerning gay men -- extreme homophobic behavior. If your husband turns almost militantly angry when confronted by someone who is gay, it may indicate that your husband is gay. This doesn't make sense at first, but take a minute and think about it... People often lash out at those who embody traits they do not like about themselves. They are in fact empathizing with that person, but it doesn't come across that way. 8. A strong preference for non-typical sex. 9. Unusually high percentage of male friends who are gay. Watch out if your husband's new best friend is gay! 10. Male friends who are overly friendly. 11. A tendency for your husband to brag about gay men complimenting him on his looks.
Is it basically just not being an integral part of the so-called gay "community"? Is it having few or no gay or lesbian friends? Is it just not having much interest in the generally same things the gay community is noted for? And what if you went for years being very much a part of said community but have found yourself not particularly needing it, wanting it anymore?

A team of Australian researchers may have made progress in finding the cure to peanut allergies. Around 15 million children in the United States are allergic to food — meaning about two allergic kids are in every classroom. In a relatively small study, scientists from the Murdoch Childrens Research Institute gave 30 allergic children small daily doses of peanut protein with a probiotic (Lactobacillus rhamnosus) in increasing amounts over 18 months. They gave a control group of 30 allergic children a placebo. “Astoundingly, researchers found over 80 percent of children who received the oral immunotherapy treatment were able to tolerate peanut [sic] at the end of the trial, compared to less than 4 percent of the placebo group,” reads a press release. “This is 20 times higher than the natural rate of resolution for peanut allergy.” “Many of the children and families believe it has changed their lives, they’re very happy, they feel relieved,” said lead researcher Mimi Tang. “These findings provide the first vital step towards developing a cure for peanut allergy and possibly other food allergies.” The next step is a follow-up study to see if the children can still tolerate peanuts years after the conclusion of the study. Previous research has suggested that probiotics have potential in treating allergies. One such study, published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences in August, found that bacteria called Clostridia were effective in preventing mice from developing peanut allergies and reversing any peanut sensitivity already present in the animal. In an interview with The Guardian, Tang underscored that parents should not attempt this treatment at home: “We would strongly advise against this. In our trial some children did experience allergic reactions, sometimes serious reactions.”

She was on the Home and Life show today on the Hallmark Channel and in Los Angeles this weekend reuniting with some of her Dynasty co-stars. It seems like she couldn't distance herself enough from the show when she left in 1984 but now shows up at EVERYTHING Dynasty related from TV reunions to autograph signings. I always loved her though. Some actors and actresses have this aura and she is one of them. From The Poseidon Adventure to Nancy Drew to the first and best Fallon (Emma Samms let's face it sucked).

The long-awaited third movie in Sony's "Ghostbusters" franchise will update the paranormal exterminators with a cast of female characters, director Paul Feig announced Wednesday. On Twitter, Feig wrote, "It's official. I'm making a new Ghostbusters & writing it with @katiedippold & yes, it will star hilarious women. That's who I'm gonna call." Feig came aboard the project in August, and his tweet confirms months of speculation that his take will focus on a new generation of female Ghostbusters. The director previously worked with Katie Dippold, the screenwriter referenced in his tweet, on the female buddy-cop comedy "The Heat," starring Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy. That film was a hit to the tune of $229 million worldwide. Feig also found success with a cast of hilarious women in 2011's "Bridesmaids," a surprise hit that helped catapult McCarthy and Kristen Wiig to movie stardom. Sony has been trying to mount a new "Ghostbusters" movie for years, and until recently the plan was to reunite the original team of Dan Aykroyd, Bill Murray and Harold Ramis. Ivan Reitman, who helmed the 1984 original and 1989's "Ghostbusters 2," was to return as well. Murray, however, has proved reluctant to return to the series, and Ramis died in February. Ramis' passing ultimately prompted Reitman to drop out of directing (he's still on board as a producer), clearing the way for Feig to take the reins. With the film's course now set, the next question is obvious: Just who is Feig going to call?

I'm not there this year, but I'm guessing at least a couple DLers are there, since, you know, there was a thread on The D Train. So, based on what you've seen so far, what should we be looking forward to? Early reviews are raving about Me & Earl & the Dying Girl, which was believed to have been bought by Fox Searchlight for a record-breaking $12 million, though the actual number is considerably lower. Other ones that seem to have piqued critical interest include The Witch, The End of the Tour, The Diary of a Teenage Girl, and The Overnight. Has anybody seen any of these? Were they actually good? I'm sort of skeptical about Me & Earl & the Dying Girl, because it sounds so much like that crappy Fault in Our Stars film. But the reviews are pretty ecstatic and say that it's largely humorous, so I'm tempted. Anyway, here's a link to a list of the films that have been bought so far.

I was having trouble with my WIFI home network the other night. I couldn't access my home network just internet. I checked my wifi connection on my phone and noticed I was not connected to my home network. Instead I was connected to a new wifi connection called (xfinity wifi). This is odd since I live in a sparsley populated small town. Turns out that Comcast was using my modem, which I rent from them, as a repeater for their public wifi network. So they charge people $9 to rent the modem then use it to boost their network. That is fucked up. They should offer to waive the rental if you agree to be a repeater. I am taking their modem into the office today. They offered to turn it off the repeater, and they did but I am tired of paying rent to them. Check to see if a new network has cropped up if you use comcast.

A child can only eat macaroni and cheese if you only feed him macaroni and cheese.

A two year old may protest, but will not starve.
I'm sure very few of you are aware of what happened Wednesday night- the Swiss National (aka Central) Bank reassured people on Monday that it would keep buying euro-bonds to keep the 1EUR TO 1.2CHF (Swiss Franc) peg in place, and then suddenly removed that "floor" on Wed night, which caused the euro to drop from 1.20 per franc to less than .90 euro to franc in milliseconds. Tens (hundreds) of billions were lost in a moment. Big FX traders are now bankrupt. The ripples keep spreading- Goldman Sucks lost billions in "carry trade" alone. (Carry trade- borrowing money in an artificially weak currency- the JPY (yen) is another favorite- and buying equity/currency in an artificially strong currency and pocketing the arbitrage) These ripples keep spreading, and Greece is the next target. Not directly, but who knows--- the signs are obvious.

According to various reports, four gay NFL players will soon come out of the closet. But veteran free safety Kerry Rhodes wants to make it clear: he will not be one of them. Pictures of Rhodes surfaced this week on Media Take Out in which the player's arms are around a man in a tank top, but Rhodes tells TMZ the shots are harmless. "Photos have been circulating of my former assistant and I that have caused some rumors regarding my sexuality, and I wanted to address the situation," Rhodes says in a statement. "I am not gay." The free agent adds that the pics were snapped during a "casual" vacation with his "entire business team." Rhodes does say he agrees with Magic Johnson overall, however: he's all for those athletes who actually are homosexual: "I know a lot of people are recently talking about athletes struggling to come out to their fans right now, and I support them, as well as wish those individuals comfort."

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.

Old article. Please discuss. Is it true?
I was talking late one night over drinks with a straight co-worker - dishing about a 'Bi' guy in our office. "Oh, he's a total Top," said my friend. "He won't suck a dick or take it up the ass. He told me so. He'll cuddle, but won't kiss a guy. No way!" "Well, then he's not gay." "Of course he is! He likes to get ..." "His dick sucked. Yeah. That's not GAY that's being a GUY." So there we have it. We pondered that for a while. Does having a guy suck your dick make you gay? Or are the truly gay guys the ones that actually want and crave cock? I personally think TOPS are frauds.
Magic Johnson's Son Goes Public With BF, Parents So Proud 5 Hours Ago Magic Johnson's 20-year-old son hit the Sunset Strip, hand in hand with his boyfriend ... and his parents couldn't be happier for their kid. Earvin Johnson III -- aka EJ -- is one of Magic's 3 kids. The Lakers legend tells TMZ, "Cookie and I love EJ and support him in every way." Magic goes on, "We're very proud of him." The feeling is mutual ... 'cause EJ told us he's been "hoping and praying" for his dad's team, the Los Angeles Dodgers, ever since Magic and his business partners took over the franchise. He's also a huge Lakers fan ... obviously. EJ -- who's a student at NYU -- has a close relationship with his parents. Back in August, Magic tweeted, "Thx to my son EJ for hosting me at NYU. Look forward to taking him to dinner tonight in the city."

So I've gone back and am starting to watch the entire series. A few questions-comments: Did Hyacinth ever actually give a candlelight supper on camera during the show's run? Are we really suppose to believe that Emmet isn't gay? What straight man goes and lives with his sister after his divorce? He also had a really bad case of gay voice too! He was a musician, who sang and played piano. Gurrrl please! Hyacinth, while embarrassed by her family, never actually cut them off. She spoke to them on the phone regularly, and would even mention them to others. She just didn't want people to see them. That's pretty odd. Richard was a pretty hot daddy. Why didn't Elizabeth end up with him? They obviously wanted each other, at least Elizabeth did. What was up with the Vicar's wife's accent? Was she suppose to be Irish? The vicar was the hottest piece of ass in the show. The actor, Jeremy Gittins, appeared nude in "Tales of the Unexpected". Great ass! He was in bed with another man. Why wasn't Patricia Routledge made a Dame? It's pretty unbelievable, especially after her most infamous character favored the Royals. Give her the title! I wished that they would have ended the series with the Buckets moving. As they're driving away down the street, the neighbors come out and cheer and applaud. Hyacinth then sticks how her arm and gives them the finger, revealing that she was aware of what they all actually thought of her all along. The best scene was the one where the woman who Hyacinth was trying to direct into a parking spot, began to try driving her down! It's amazing that they never brought back the series for at least a special after 1995. From Wikipedia: In the March 2011 PBS pledge drive programming special Behind the Britcoms: from Script to Screen hosted by Moira Brooker and Philip Bretherton of As Time Goes By, the Keeping Up Appearances creators/writers/producers stated that they believed the series had many more years in it, that they had many more stories to tell, and that "it still had legs".

I avoid my neighbor in my gated condo complex, a very angry and bitter man. Originally from NY, his Chinese wife had a gambling problem and lost their restaurant. He claims that he can't talk about his former job which I think was as a government employee in Taiwan, possibly in computers or engineering. He was friendly with my previous roomie, a Chinese lady who left Vegas due to her own issues with gambling. She needed him for rides, but non-stop complained about his cheapness, such as never leaving a tip. On the $4 movie discount day, he'd brag that he snuck in candy bars so that he could see 4 complete movies without getting hungry. Whenever he used to come to the door to visit her, I'd hide, especially after hearing him brag about committing petty crimes in NY as a teenager. Since reading on DL, something bothers me. This childless man regularly chaperones Boy Scouts on extended camping trips. My former roomie used to tell me that this proved that he really was a good and honorable man. Am I being paranoid?

Release Date: Jan 28, 2015 Huge distant planet has rings 200 times wider than Saturn’s First-ever ringed planet beyond our solar system. You could think of it as kind of a super Saturn. Called J1407b, its ring system is 200 times wider than Saturn’s. An international team of astronomers have discovered that a ring system around a distant planet – called J1407b – is of enormous proportions, much larger and heavier than the ring system of Saturn. The planet orbits star J1407, located approximately 434 light-years from Earth. The ring system – the first of its kind to be found outside our solar system – was discovered in 2012. A new analysis of the data, published in the Astrophysical Journal, shows that the ring system consists of more than 30 rings, each of them tens of millions of kilometers in diameter. Furthermore, the analysis found gaps in the rings, which indicate that satellites (“exomoons”) may have formed. Erik Mamajek is a professor of physics and astronomy at the University of Rochester and a co-author of the study. He said: [quote]This planet is much larger than Jupiter or Saturn, and its ring system is roughly 200 times larger than Saturn’s rings are today. You could think of it as kind of a super Saturn. The disk of rings is so vast that, were it around Saturn, it would dominate our night sky, the astronomers said. According to Matthew Kenworthy of the Leiden Observatory in The Netherlands: [quote]If we could replace Saturn’s rings with the rings around J1407b, they would be easily visible at night and be many times larger than the full moon. Mamajek put into context how much material is contained in these disks and rings: [quote]If you were to grind up the four large Galilean moons of Jupiter into dust and ice and spread out the material over their orbits in a ring around Jupiter, the ring would be so opaque to light that a distant observer that saw the ring pass in front of the sun would see a very deep, multi-day eclipse. [quote]In the case of J1407, we see the rings blocking as much as 95 percent of the light of this young Sun-like star for days, so there is a lot of material there that could then form satellites. Astronomers expect that the rings will become thinner in the next several million years and eventually disappear as satellites form from the material in the disks.

OMG I just came from a Sundance Film Festival screening of this new indie. Marsden plays a bisexual who full-on seduces Black. Sex scene includes a shirtless makeout session between the two men followed by Marsden pounding Black's fat-ass bent over a bed. It has funny moments; it's interesting. But I doubt it will play well with straights or queers because it becomes a melodrama in awkward and unlikely territory. Sundance billed it as a buddy comedy and that's what you'd expect from the cast. But no, it's mostly uncomfortable, stunt storytelling.

The bigger the cast, the higher the tension! The Real Housewives of Orange County will return later this year with all of its current cast intact, plus two more additions, a source close to the cast confirms to Us Weekly. The new women, Meghan King Edmonds and Katie Chadwick Hamilton, are not only residents of the plush West Coast community, but they also happen to be married to pro athletes. Edmonds is the wife of former MLB player and current Fox Sports announcer Jim Edmonds. Other newcomer Hamilton, meanwhile, is the wife of MLB player Josh Hamilton. PHOTOS: Remember these former Housewives? They will join regulars Vicki Gunvalson, Tamra Judge (nee Barney), Heather DuBrow, as well as season 9 newbies Elizabeth "Lizzie" Rovsek and Shannon Beador. Gunvalson has impressively been with the RHOC -- the very first installment of the entire Housewives franchise -- since season one. While the rookies are likely to bring fresh drama to the mix, a memorable former housewife from the franchise will also make her return as a "friend" in season 10. Original RHOC Jeana Keough, who made quite the splash in the first five seasons of the series back in 2006 to 2011, teased her role reprisal via Twitter last week.

Keram knows that only the tip of the proverbial iceberg has been revealed thus far from the Sony hack. The Amy Pascal-Scott Rudin bitchfest is child's play compared to some of the other stuff that was housed in Sony's email archives, and Sony execs are shitting themselves with worry that the real "Christmas present" is yet to come, hence the reason they yanked "The Interview" so quickly. Keram knows that the email discussions in the Sony leak include extended ones about hiding James Franco's true sexual proclivities (sex with men being the least of them); line items in at *least* a dozen films for either Dr. Feelgood scrips (mostly Oxy) for actors, or coke & heroin in some cases; and a certain overhyped actress who tried to kill herself while filming a certain movie in Sweden a few years ago (there's a reason she hasn't worked since). Keram knows that the most "open-minded" Hollywood actor these days - sexually speaking - is Nicholas Hoult. Keram has heard the detailed sexual proclivities of hundreds of showbiz figures, but Hoult may top them all. He is up for anything and everything with anyone and everyone. Of *course* Tom Ford hit that while filming "A Single Man." Of *course* Luke Evans did the same on "Clash of the Titans." Of *course* he was game for Michael Fassbender's various kinks, up to and including scat. Keram would not be surprised if Hoult had even let Ian McKellen diddle him, though he's heard no such info. Keram knows that the Force wasn't the only thing awakened by the new "Star Wars" movie. Luckily Carrie Fisher isn't in all that many scenes, because otherwise her coke-fueled bipolar meltdown could have halted filming for weeks. Instead, she was very quietly sent to a rehab center in Switzerland, and Abrams delayed filming her scenes for a month. Keram knows DL fave Jake G. had to sacrifice a few things while adding 50 pounds of muscle for "Southpaw," in particular the use of his cock. All those 'roids left him with such a serious case of limpdick that even a max dose of Cialis couldn't do a thing to get him even partially hard. Keram knows Jake immediately started making up for lost time after filming ended, surprising more than a few Angeleno boys on Grindr when he showed up at their pads. (Like many on the app, he had only a shot of his torso on display.) Keram knows that the most genuine celebrity in Hollywood these days may be Chris Pratt. He is genuinely amazed that "Guardians of the Galaxy" is the highest-grossing film of the year, just as he was genuinely amazed that he ended up marrying Anna Faris. Keram is glad to see him getting some long-overdue major success. Keram knows that one of Pratt's costars, Vin Diesel (albeit only in a voice role), has once again developed one of the biggest egos in Hollywood, thanks to the dual success of GOTG and the "Fast & Furious" films. One might think that a decade of consistent failure might have humbled the man; if so, one would be sorely mistaken. Keram knows that the fact that his current "ask" is $20 million for non-F&F films ($30M for F&F sequels) is the reason he's gotten virtually no work to speak of since the success of the fourth F&F film, and that he only did GOTG because it required a mere two days of studio work. Keram also knows that Vin is as gay as ever, despite having a child with his longtime "girlfriend," and is one of the regulars at David Geffen's infamous pool parties. Speaking of which, Keram knows that Geffen's parties have become the *only* place to be now that Bryan Singer has been forced into veritable seclusion (socially speaking) in the aftermath of the lawsuit against him. Geffen has become selective to the point of absurdity in choosing the boys to "service" partygoers. Mere stunning looks are no longer enough: Geffen demands *perfection*. Keram knows of at least two young men who've gotten cosmetic surgery -- specifically, nosejobs, pinned ears and veneers -- simply to gain *entry* into Casa Geffen.

Soap star rivals Lisa Rinna and Eileen Davidson are already bringing the 90210 as they have begun filming for the upcoming season of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Rinna and Davidson have known each other for years because of their work on Days of Our Lives. “There is absolutely no love lost between Lisa and Eileen. Eileen can be very cold and aloof towards other women, and Lisa doesn’t like that at all. Lisa is very outgoing and says whatever is on her mind,” a source exclusively told RadarOnline.com. “The ladies have already had some heated exchanges during the onset of filming.” “The ladies have already had some heated exchanges during the onset of filming.” Rinna takes issue with Davidson’s decision to leave the popular soap opera, claiming to wanting to spend more time with her family, but ultimately deciding to join the cast of a reality show doesn’t make sense to the actress. “Eileen said she quit DOOL to spend more time with family, but then invites reality cameras into her house? There is a lot going on with Eileen’s personal life, and just doesn’t seem like the best decision to join a reality show,” the insider added. “This will be one of the best season’s for RHOBH, ever.”

For R124 in the Guliana thread. So far, I'm not impressed.
If you have, what do you think when people try to analyze your characters? Are they really written to be as complex as the audience assume? Or are they fairly one-dimensional vessels meant to move the plot along? Although I've given up on watching the show Looking, I love reading the threads because devotees of the show have given the characters complexities that really aren't there. Seriously, the producers should bring on most of the people on the thread as writers and maybe the show would get significantly better.
Gwyneth Paltrow Advocates $50 Vagina Steams: "It Is an Energetic Release—Not Just a Steam Douche" by Alyssa Toomey, Today 11:24 AM PST While Gwyneth Paltrow may be famous for often eyebrow-raising (and totally outrageous) quotes, the Goop goddess has somehow outdone herself. And yes, we're talking about the same woman who once said, "Cheers to our hairless vaginas!" In a new post on her lifestyle website Goop, the 42-year-old beauty, who is notorious for her healthy living tips, urged fans to try Tikkun Spa, which, according to Gwynnie, is the "next level when it comes to Korean spas." The holistic spa uses "high-tech far infrared heat," which is said to help the body detox, and in addition to boosting a "long menu of massages and kick-ass body scrubs," the luxury oasis also has a surprising treatment that is apparently a favorite of Paltrow's. "We're burying the lede though, because the real golden ticket here is the Mugworth V-Steam: You sit on what is essentially a mini-throne, and a combination of infrared and mugwort steam cleanses your uterus, et al," the Oscar winner explains. To put it simply: Gwyneth Paltrow is an advocate of vagina steams. Why? "It is an energetic release—not just a steam douche—that balances female hormone levels," she writes, adding, "If you're in LA, you have to do it." According to the spa's website, there are five different V-steams to choose from—the signature, the slimming, the infertility, the post-partum and even a signature V-steam for men. But, as with many things Gwyneth promotes, the fancy treatment will cost ya: a series of five V-steams comes to a total of $200 while a single treatment costs $50.

UPDATED Emma Paulsen, B.C. dog walker, gets jail time for animal cruelty After 6 dogs died of heat stroke in her car, Paulsen lied and said they'd been stolen Emma Paulsen, the B.C. dog walker who pleaded guilty to animal cruelty in the deaths of six dogs in her care, has been sentenced to six months in jail. She can also not own an animal for 10 years, and has a lifetime ban on caring for one in a paid capacity. B.C. dog walker pleads guilty to animal cruelty PHOTOS of 6 dogs The audience in the gallery of the Surrey provincial court broke out in applause after Judge Jim Jardine handed down the sentence on Wednesday morning. During the trial, some of the owners of the dogs that died cried while the judge described how Paulsen initially lied to them, police and the public. The judge said their victim impact statements were difficult to read. They told how they missed their pets horribly and felt guilty for hiring Paulsen. When the dogs went missing in May 2014, Paulsen reported they had been stolen from the back of her pickup truck. Police later learned the animals died from heat stroke while shut inside Paulsen's truck. Paulsen told the court she had nothing to say before her sentence was delivered. "Paulsen did not intend to harm the dogs," the judge said when he was giving the reasons for her sentence. "[But] she was trying to cover up her wrong-doing."

Short review from AfterElton: Undertow (Contracorriente ) What's it about? Independent thinker and painter Santiago (Manolo Cardona) is having a passionate affair with Miguel (Cristian Mercado), a married fisherman in a remote Peruvian coastal village. Since this isn't Key West, problems arise. What did I think? This is the best independent gay movie I've seen in years. While comparisons to Brokeback Mountain are probably unfair, given the rural location, the groundbreaking performances and sex scenes, as well as the damage wrought by the closet on married gay/bi men and their wives, comparisons are also probably inevitable. But make no mistake, this is no mere Brokeback Mountain repeat. Something happens halfway through that spins the story off in an entirely unexpected direction, and that allows for a poignancy that rivals BBM. And while the ending can't be called happy, it is satisfying in a way that the story of Jake and Ennis wasn't. The acting, the writing and the cinematography are all top notch, and I find it depressing that a movie from South America is so superior to anything produced lately in the U.S. I highly recommend you see it as soon as you get the chance.

Symptoms of lactic acidosis include weakness or being more tired than usual, unusual muscle pain, being short of breath or fast breathing, nausea, vomiting, stomach-area pain, cold or blue hands and feet, feeling dizzy or lightheaded, and/or fast or abnormal heartbeats. Serious liver problems. Your liver may become large and tender, and you may develop fat in your liver. Symptoms of liver problems include your skin or the white part of your eyes turns yellow, dark “tea-colored” urine, light-colored stools, loss of appetite for several days or longer, nausea, and/or stomach-area pain. You may be more likely to get lactic acidosis or serious liver problems if you are female, very overweight (obese), or have been taking TRUVADA for a long time. In some cases, these serious conditions have led to death. Call your healthcare provider right away if you have any symptoms of these conditions. Worsening of hepatitis B (HBV) infection. If you also have HBV and take TRUVADA, your hepatitis may become worse if you stop taking TRUVADA. Do not stop taking TRUVADA without first talking to your healthcare provider. If your healthcare provider tells you to stop taking TRUVADA, they will need to watch you closely for several months to monitor your health. TRUVADA is not approved for the treatment of HBV. If your healthcare provider has prescribed TRUVADA to help reduce the risk of getting HIV-1 infection, you should also know: You must be HIV-negative before you start taking TRUVADA to reduce the risk of getting HIV-1. You must get tested to make sure that you do not already have HIV-1 infection. Do not take TRUVADA to reduce the risk of getting HIV-1 unless you are confirmed to be HIV-negative. Many HIV-1 tests can miss HIV-1 infection in a person who has recently become infected. If you have flu-like symptoms, you could have recently become infected with HIV-1. Tell your healthcare provider if you had a flu-like illness within the last month before starting TRUVADA or at any time while taking TRUVADA. Symptoms of new HIV-1 infection include tiredness, fever, joint or muscle aches, headache, sore throat, vomiting, diarrhea, rash, night sweats, and/or enlarged lymph nodes in the neck or groin. Just taking TRUVADA may not keep you from getting HIV-1. You must continue using safer sex practices while you are taking TRUVADA to reduce your risk of getting HIV-1. To further reduce your risk of getting HIV-1: Get tested for other sexually transmitted infections. Other infections make it easier for HIV-1 to infect you. Get information and support to help reduce risky sexual behavior. Have fewer sex partners. Do not miss any doses of TRUVADA. Missing doses may increase your risk of getting HIV-1 infection. You must stay HIV-negative to keep taking TRUVADA to reduce your risk of getting HIV-1: Know your HIV-1 status and the HIV-1 status of your partners. Get tested for HIV-1 at least every 3 months or when your healthcare provider tells you. If you think you were exposed to HIV-1, tell your healthcare provider right away. If you do become HIV-1 positive, you need more medicine than TRUVADA alone to treat HIV-1. TRUVADA itself is not a complete treatment for HIV-1. If you have HIV-1 and take only TRUVADA, your HIV-1 may become harder to treat.

In their early days on television, Chris Hyndman says, he was tormented daily by hate mail. The worst part? Much of it came from the gay community. “The gay community can be pretty cold, and it’s pretty hard on you if people turn on you that you expect to really accept you because you’re a screaming queen,” Hyndman says. “Well, a lot of us are, but when a gay person says you’re a screaming queen, that’s pretty insulting because then you’re, like, Oh my god, you’re a queen to the queens.” “You would take them personally,”Steven Sabados chides. Ignoring the hate came more naturally to him. “It just rolled off my back because I don’t really care. You can’t hurt me. I’m just doing the best I can do, and if you don’t like it, then I don’t care,” he says.

Hawaii News Now reports Jim Nabors and his partner, Stan Cadwallader, traveled from their Honolulu home to Seattle to be married Jan. 15. he 82-year-old Nabors says you've got to solidify something when you've been together as long as they have. The couple met in 1975 when Cadwallader was a Honolulu firefighter. Cadwallader is 64. Nabors says he's been open about his homosexuality to co-workers and friends but never acknowledged it to the media before. Nabors played Gomer Pyle in "The Andy Griffith Show" and "Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C." television shows.

Thanks, Jenny McCarthy! [quote]The measles outbreak centered in California is rapidly expanding, with officials now confirming 51 cases of the illness -- nearly double the number reported Tuesday -- and warning more people will likely fall sick with the highly contagious virus.

It's such a great film, but it has a lot of problems in it. The "Crazy Veil" sequence is beautiful but it stops the whole movie cold. The "Gotta Dance" sequence is great, but it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever how it could possibly be interpolated into "The Duelling Cavalier" (and it has nothing to do with the rest of the wider movie). Worst of all, Lina seems punished too cruelly at the very end, and yet she always gives audiences more pleasure than anyone else in the film. But you can forgive it everything for its great musical numbers and its brilliant dialogue ("If we can bring a little joy into your humdrum little lives, then all our hard work ain't been in vain for nothin'").

THR: "The Bottom Line: As enchanting a screen version as the show's fans could desire" "Streep is quite wonderful, delivering something far richer than her karaoke turn in the clunky Mamma Mia! Her performances in the film adaptations of stage hits Doubt and August: Osage County are among her less remarkable work of recent years. But she reinvents this role from scratch, bringing powerful vocals, mischievous comedic instincts, bold physicality and raw feeling to the Witch. Her entrances and exits alone are priceless."

I know this sounds weird, but I sometimes hear voices in water. Not often, but occasionally. Tonight it's happened twice. Once coming from a fish tank in another room. A few minutes ago, from the water tank of my toilet. I can't make out what the voices are saying, but it sounds conversational along with a ghostly airy sound like you'd hear in a movie. They didn't last very long tonight, but I've never heard them twice in one night and never from the water tank of my toilet. And no, the toilet wasn't running. Anyone else ever experience this? If so, what was the source of water? Kind of eerie, but I'm not concerned.

For me, the old Uncle Charlies on Greenwich holds a special place in my heart. It was the first bar I'd ever set foot in back in '92 when I started grad school at NYU. I was pretty much closeted and had never even kissed a guy, but I remember the exhilirating sense of freedom and liberation (I know...MARY!) that I felt for the first time. Addicted to that feeling, I probably went there more than I should have, but it was such an amazing experience. It's where I met the guy with whom I had my first kiss, first date and first same sex encounter. It seems so long ago, but the memories are still vivid. And it was a time before big muscles and shaving every inch of the body were in vogue. Yes, I sound old. I also remember a place called Pieces that I went to a few times. Not sure that's still around. Anyone else care to share their memories?

I can see why he was afraid to come out ten years ago, but at this point the leading man roles have dried up and he''s not going to have much more of a career unless he gets some attention. In this he''s sort of like Ricky Martin: Ricky also had a huge career ten years ago that dried up, but when he came out he was embraced by the American gay community. Wouldn''t Diesel be too if he came out?

If you thought everyone in the LGBT community wanted gay marriage, you would be wrong. It's much more nuanced than that. A new chart from Pew, based on 2013 data, shows that 7 percent of LGBT Americans said they oppose same-sex marriage. And another 18 percent said they favor it, but that they didn't feel strongly.

The nation's population growth remains near historic lows as it struggles to recover from the Great Recession, new Census estimates show. The U.S. population reached 313.9 million on July 1, a 0.75% increase or 2.3 million gain in one year. The population numbers also show that the oil boom in North Dakota has sparked a people boom that made the state the fastest-growing since 2011 -- 2.2% or three times the national rate. Former boom states such as Nevada and Arizona continue to grow but at a much slower pace than before the 2007-09 recession. The estimates show the effects of an aging population, as the oldest Baby Boomers turned 66 this year and birth rates and immigration continue to decline.
Enjoy those ginger crotches while you can, fellas! Genetic scientists warn that redheads are a dying breed; soon they will become extinct in the next 100 years. National Geographic magazine reports that less than two percent of the world’s population has the natural red hair. The future doesn’t look bright for those with ginger locks, according to the National Geographic article. Red hair was created by a genetic mutation in northern Europe thousands of years ago. The article reports that the gene had the beneficial effect of increasing the body’s ability to cope with sunlight; it helped make vitamin D from sunlight. But now because of worldwide interactions, today’s carriers are more prone to skin cancer and are more sensitive to heat and cold-related pain. Because of the smaller percentage of red-heads present in the population, it has reduced the chances considerably for them to get red-head partners, so their offspring may or may not be a red-head. But that red-head can produce a baby from a single red-headed parent; the chances rise when both the parents have ginger hair, however. Some experts warn those with red hair could be gone as early 2060, but others say the gene can be dormant in the reproductive system for generations before returning. It is too early to predict redhead extinction; more research and analysis needs to be done if that is the case. For more about red hair check the Wikipedia article.

Tori Spelling also opens up about her own family troubles in her new book, saying that she and husband Dean McDermott are so broke that they can't even afford for him to get a vasectomy. According to an excerpt obtained by People, as reported by Entertainment Tonight, Spelling says her wealthy childhood caused her financial issues. "It's no mystery why I have money problems. I grew up rich beyond anyone's dreams," Spelling wrote. "Even when I try to embrace a simpler lifestyle, I can't seem to let go of my expensive tastes. And then there's my little shopping problem. ... I can't afford to live like this anymore. Our circumstances have changed. They say admitting the problem is the first step." Spelling says she is working hard to make changes to her lifestyle. "I haven't bought a purse in three years, and it's fine," she said. "I look back at that girl who shopped at Gucci in my 20s, and I can't even relate. I can't believe I thought it was important."

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?

Scott then took his pillow and cozied up right in between Rob's legs.
How A Gay Matt Damon/Ben Affleck Sex Scene Got Harvey Weinstein 'Good Will Hunting' Instinct Staff | January 28, 2015 Remember that gay sex scene between Matt Damon and Ben Affleck in Good Will Hunting? Oh you don't? Well that's because it didn't happen. But did you know it was in the script? Apparently it was that scene's inclusion that ultimately earned Harvey Weinstein and Miramax the movie over bids from major studios! We'll let Harvey explain. From Mental Floss: [quote]So why did they choose him over a big studio? Weinstein appeared on The Graham Norton Show in the UK last week, and explained all. [quote]"Everyone in Hollywood wanted Matt Damon and Ben Affleck and the film", he recalled to Norton. "In the meeting with them, I said 'I only have one really big note on the script. About page 60, the two leads, both straight men, have a sex scene. What the hell is that?'" [quote]And that was a good question. [quote]For there was method to Affleck and Damon's madness. "That's the scene", they explained to Weinstein, "we wrote to see if guys like you read the script, because every studio executive we went to hadn't read it. You're the only guy who brought it up, so you get the movie". [quote]Good Will Hunting would go on to gross over $200m worldwide, reportedly costing just $10m to make. Reading is fundamental! Though now we're pissed that that scene never got shot.

Professional bowler Scott Norton publicly announced yesterday that he is gay via a post on the Professional Bowler's Association website. Norton, who was awarded the PBA Rookie of the Year Award, was inspired by the coming out of Phoenix Suns President & CEO Rick Welts earlier this week. Read Norton's personal statement, posted on the PBA website, below: On May 15, Phoenix Suns CEO and President Rick Welts announced publicly that he is gay. That announcement was important to me because he is someone who is actively involved in professional sports and has publicly acknowledged his sexuality. While many athletes wait until they retire to officially come out, the fact that Mr. Welts has the courage to do so while still actively involved with the NBA has encouraged me to also acknowledge that I am a gay athlete. It is extremely important for me to come out to show other gay athletes, both current and future, that it is important to come out to show that we are just like everyone else. Being gay doesn%E2%80%99t define who I am as a person or as a professional athlete. I'm also a professional bowler, lawyer, caring, compassionate, strong, and many other things. It's important to show people that being gay has nothing to do with one's ability to do anything as a man, least of all compete at the highest level of sports. In 2009, after successfully passing my California bar exam, I made a decision to pursue my lifelong dream of becoming a professional bowler. I entered and won the PBA Regional Players Invitational, which gave me the opportunity to bowl full-time on the Lumber Liquidators PBA Tour during the 2010-11 season, and I was fortunate enough to win the Chameleon Championship in Las Vegas for my first PBA Tour title. At the conclusion of my first year on tour, I was selected by my fellow players as PBA Rookie of the Year. It was the culmination of years of hard work and dreams, and made every obstacle I had to overcome worthwhile. I have encountered specific obstacles due to my sexuality, but I really do not wish to cause a great deal of turmoil in the industry or make waves. The issues that were in the past remain in the past but there were serious impediments to my progression to becoming a professional bowler. They only made me stronger and made me the person I am today. Those issues only strengthened my belief that knowledge is vital in our path to acceptance. I will say, however, that my experience on the PBA tour surpassed nearly everything I could hope for in terms of acceptance. The vast majority of bowlers out on tour were accepting and welcoming as were all the staff, which deeply touched me. I know from my own experiences that it was difficult for me personally to acknowledge being gay because of the shame and stigma brought on by society and I was afraid of not being accepted. I know it is more prevalent in the female sporting community to be gay, but I wouldn't necessarily say it makes it easier. It just means there are more people around to share your story with. I don't feel I have that kind of connection with anyone since many people I am around on our tour do not have that perspective. I am very proud and happy with who I am and who I have become as a person, and I would hope that this will empower other gay athletes %E2%80%93 past, present, or future %E2%80%93 to come to terms with the truth about who they are and love themselves for who they are. I appreciate the discretion and care with which the PBA staff has handled my situation. I have tried to conduct myself in a professional manner at all times and try to put forth a good reputation both for my community and for the PBA and sport of bowling. I am currently working with Compete Sports, a gay sports network, as an advisor in developing different forms of media coverage (publishing, radio, and soon tv) which will hopefully bring even more exposure to our sport, as well as increased tolerance and acceptance within the sports community. I hope everyone will continue to see me as the person I am, and nothing more, nothing less. Scott Norton, PBA Rookie of the Year.
He's hilarious and I love him. He created the Stefon character on SNL. I hope his pilot gets picked up.

I'm staying with family for Thanksgiving and this has mean sleeping with my annoyingly horny cousin. For three nights in a row, I have been awakened to find my cousin moaning and screwing my butt. When I stop him, he claims he was sleeping and dreaming having sex with his girl friend. On the third night, I even asked him why he only fucks his girl friend in the ass, just to lighten the situation with a little humor. He claims that when the two of them are together they "spoon" and that way he takes her from behind. I'm not buying it, so tomorrow I'm going to make him wash the sheets and teach him a lesson. He had the never to ask if he had hurt me. I assured him he hadn't, and that I really liked corn holing, just not with my relatives. Now he just wants to be friends so I won't feel so bad. I think the kid is a little crazy, but I go home in two more days.

More than a 30 year age difference ..... How often does this work out ? (yah, yah, I know .... as long as he can afford to pay .... ha ha) .... but seriously, do you know of a lot of success stories ?

I was watching online and came across this. Even though the guys aren't my type, the fact that the guy getting fucked stayed hard through the whole thing turned me on. Also, the end where they kiss really got me hot. What in porn is a turn on?
There is mail on MLK day? RACISM! RACISM!

Which is better, and why?
List them. I'll go first. I'll list two. 1. I knew someone who believed that meat would spontaneously produce maggots. When I told them it wasn't true that flies lay eggs on the meat that hatch into maggots the person got extremely angry and almost hit me. 2. The belief that falling a great distance through the air kills people, as in not dying after hitting the ground. I've known several people who think that people who fall from great heights die in mid air and are already dead when they hit the ground. I've tried to set them straight but they usually don't believe me. I mean, technically I guess a person could have a heart attack but most people die from the actual impact.
I love my fellow gays but why do so many of us believe in astrology ... Including, often, the same people who ridicule other religious or spiritual belief systems as being stupid?

I haven't owned a car in a decade, so I'm home today goofing on the web and who knew that the Korean car makers, Hyundai and Kia, make ultra-luxury cars? The Equus and the K900 are ridiculously expensive. Does anyone here own one? Would anyone be willing to shell out that amount of cash for such a car? I don't see these succeeding.
Since that discredited Rolling Stone article all I have been hearing about is the numerous sexual assaults against mainly middle class or upper middle class white females. The assaults are often tainted with alcohol and late nights alone with young, horny boys who won't take no for an answer. The girls then complain that college and/ or the local police are not as moved by the assault as one would hope in this post-feminist age. In the words of that great man, Col. Potter" horse hockey"! I am so sick of well off girls thinking that college life is going to be a cotillion. That the rules of gentlemen over ride the beer buzz. And that low and behold a guy just wants to get laid at 3 in the morning. Where are the partenal teachings about sex and drinking. Why does a boy have a higher expectation of duty than a drunken, foolish girl. And after all the sexual openness of this generation why are we allowing the soft bigotry of low expectations to give a girl- a woman -an out simply because she regrets having sex, and to hide that shameby calling it "rape". That doesn't mean that men and women aren't really subjected to sexual assaults on campuses around the country. But why when well off, educated females-mainly white- attend college they suddenly act like Melanie Wilkes when they are pressed into sex? They ingested the drug and drink that brought them that boy. Boys between 18 and 21 are usually not the romantic types. And why think that your brain being cloudy isn't equal to his. This is real a class issue colored in eggshell white. These young girls not are prepared for freedom or adult respondsilbity. Their parents have coddled them in so many ways they feel that they are entitled to be treated like a lady even if they are acting like a flower girl. My sympathy is low. Privilege does grant you a mulligan in sexual awareness. And being a victim only lowers my regard that you can handle yourself in the real world.

Is there an online repository with old blind items that have been solved? Like could I find one from 1995 that said "This squeaky clean singer has been in the news with her new man lately but what hasn't been in the the papers is her true greatest love of all. We're talking crack cocaine and lots of of it." Or do bloggers and gossip columnist just make all this shit up?

After many complaints and a Change.org petition, GoDaddy has decided to pull the controversial commercial. So I guess you're never supposed to buy a dog from a breeder? Why?How would breeders stay in business then? What if you want a specific breed and not some mutt or pitbull mix from the pound? These complainers are basically painting breeders as evil and wanting to put them out of business.

He doesn't have much charisma, and his opinions are derivative. Yet, he has been a judge for four seasons and I guess he wouldn't have stuck around for this long if executives didn't think he "read well" with viewers?
You all here think so, at least if you read the Timberlake threads. But on other gossip sites they think he's straight. Celeb writers/bloggers who traffic in gossip say he is straight - EG Ted C, that Lainey person. If you read on him here and other sites, it's like two different people. What's the real deal? Is he gay or not? Am curious to hear from DLers who actually know something, not so much a bunch of speculating fraus, fans and haters...

Mine is "Jupiter and Io" by Correggio. The wispy face of Jupiter by Io's mouth is just amazing. I have never seen this painting in person but came so close twice. When it came to NYC, I was too poor a student to pay the admission price to the museum (I didn't know there were free nights). When I was visiting Vienna, I went to the art museum. As the museum was closing, I stopped in the gift shop. After a while, I noticed a postcard with this painting on it. I couldn't believe it was there! Unfortunately, I couldn't go back up into the galleries to see it. I'll never forgive myself.
French families find themselves in a jam after a court rules they cannot name their daughters Nutella and Fraise (Strawberry) A court in northern France has taken a tough stance towards parents who want to name their babies after chocolate spreads or fruit, overturning two families’ decisions to call their daughters Nutella and Fraise (Strawberry). When one couple in Valenciennes tried to call their child Nutella last September, the shocked registrar immediately informed the local prosecutor, who took the case to court in the northern city. The judge said that giving the child “the name of a chocolate spread” was against the girl’s interests as it might “lead to mockery and unpleasant remarks,” La Voix du Nord newspaper reported. The parents did not turn up at the hearing in November, and in their absence the judge ruled that the girl should be renamed Ella. The same court in Valenciennes made similar arguments in January this year before overturning the decision of another couple to name their child Fraise. The judge said that in particular the girl might face derision from people using the uncouth expression "ramène ta fraise" - a slang saying that translates as "get your a-- over here". The parents opted instead for Fraisine, an elegant name popular in the 19th century. French parents can choose whatever name they want for their offspring, but a registrar will occasionally seek to ban a moniker that might be deemed against the child’s interests. A family was told in 2009 that they could not name their child after the French cartoon character Titeuf. But the recent spate of French kids who have been named after characters in the Game of Thrones series, such as Khaleesi or Joffrey, does not appear to have ruffled any official feathers. Last week a dog owner in eastern France was forced to change the names of his dogs because they allegedly made people think of Adolf Hitler and Eva Braun. The owner of the American Staffordshire Terriers "Itler" and "Iva" grudgingly agreed to rename them "Ilisa" and "Isio" after a complaint by the mayor of the village of Saint-Nicolas-de-Port.
Nutella and Strawberry not suitable names for children, French court rules
Endora's age for example. In earlier episodes, it was suggested that Endora "admits to 1000" years old. Serena refers to the Witches' Council, saying you can "never trust someone over 2000 years old!" Uncle Arthur looks at Endora and says, "Make that 3000!". But in the Henry VIII episode, Endora says that she can't use her witchcraft because she hadn't been born yet! That annoyed me. The writers were getting lazy at that point

Some of those Nifty stories have funny misuse of words. I had to laugh at the image when someone wrote: "He pulled my sweatpants down to my knees and started to fondue my bulge in my loose boxer shorts." Ouch! One common error is: "I shuttered when his lips touched mine." There are a lot of Nifty people who shutter.

Cumberbatch added in a later email with THR, "Alan Turing was not only prosecuted, but quite arguably persuaded to end his own life early, by a society who called him a criminal for simply seeking out the love he deserved, as all human beings do. 60 years later, that same government claimed to 'forgive' him by pardoning him. I find this deplorable, because Turing's actions did not warrant forgiveness - theirs did - and the 49,000 other prosecuted men deserve the same."

The celebrity gossip site wrote that Gifford has been lobbying for the move, while Kotb is adamant about staying in New York City. Earlier, Page Six reported that Kathie Lee and Hoda's two week stint in Los Angeles was a test run for a permanent move, though "Today" denied the rumor.

Hello, hello, hello! The wait is almost over. RuPaul and Logo have finally announced the premiere date for "RuPaul's Drag Race" season seven: March 2. And while we're stoked that we finally have a date for that first Monday we'll head out to our favorite gay bar and yell at the TV with our fellow queers, there is one huge change this season that we couldn't help but notice: Ru flipped the judging panel! While fan favorite and beloved loud mouth Michelle Visage will be returning to Ru's side for this season of "Drag Race," it looks like Santino Rice got the boot. Instead, Ru is bringing in two new judges to join the ranks: Ross Mathews and Carson Kressley. "Yes, Virginia, there is a gay Santa Claus!” said Executive Producer RuPaul in a statement sent to The Huffington Post. “I asked for a new, wickedly funny, smart and experienced judge…and I got two! Ross and Carson are the perfect addition to the ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race’ family because they're not just show biz experts, they’re superfans and longtime lovers of the art of drag." Matthews is a TV personality best known for his appearances on E!'s "Chelsea Lately" and the channel's red carpet coverage, while Kressley made a name for himself in the early 2000s on "Queer Eye For The Straight Guy." The guest judges for the 2015 season include Ariana Grande, Jessica Alba, Demi Lovato, John Waters, Kat Dennings, Kathy Griffin, Olivia Newtown-John, Alyssa Milano, Jordin Sparks, Mel B and more. How will these judging changes affect the framework of the show? Only one way to find out -- tune into Logo TV on Monday, March 2 at 9 p.m. ET/PT

Turns out the beloved sitcom treated fat people as punch lines and kind of had a homophobia problem “Friends” hit Netflix for the first time in 2015, and while it’s certainly not the first time people have had the opportunity to rewatch the show since it went off the air in 2004, it has provided a handy excuse for people to ruminate belatedly on the show’s impact — and for crazy super-fans to binge-watch all 10 seasons, obviously — and perhaps learn something new about the gang in the process. And they did! Some revelations were goofy, some light, and others pretty damning. Here’s what the Internet dug up about our favorite sitcom when viewed in the cold harsh light of 2015: Chandler is the worst, and he’s also pretty homophobic. As Ruth Graham wrote in Slate: “Chandler’s treatment of his gay father, a Vegas drag queen played by Kathleen Turner, is especially appalling, and it’s not clear the show knows it. It’s one thing for Chandler to recall being embarrassed as a kid, but he is actively resentful and mocking of his loving, involved father right up until his own wedding (to which his father is initially not invited!)… his continuing discomfort now reads as jarringly out of place for a supposedly hip New York thirtysomething — let alone a supposedly good person, period…. When it comes to women, Chandler turns out to be just as retrograde as Joey, but his lust comes with an undercurrent of the kind of bitter desperation that I now recognize as not only gross, but potentially menacing.” Although, this, of course, is not the first time the show’s homophobia has been addressed: Refinery29, meanwhile, delved into the issues with the show’s use of “Fat Monica” as a punchline. “In the show’s storyline, Monica loses weight in college after overhearing Chandler make fun of her size. Shamed into thinness, Fat Monica becomes just Monica — desirable and (finally) human. Monica is many things: funny, uptight, loving, competitive. Fat Monica is just fat… and always hungry. I was grateful for Fat Monica as a kid. She was proof I could overcome my disgusting plumpness and be seen as lovable, too. True, I would always bear the shame of my inflated past, just like Monica did, but I was willing to live with that if it meant I’d be a person instead of a punchline.”

I never understood why One Direction's management never makes Zayn Malik the lead singer. I mean he clearly has the best voice out of the group, he's a little skinny but still attractive. And he's the only one of the group that can hit those high falsetto note's effortlessly. But in their new video "Steal My Girl" (below) when Zayn's singing part comes on towards the end, they switch camera's to him and Harry Styles when it's clearly Zayn's voice throughout doing that high note NOT Harry. Is it because Zayn is a muslim that 1D's management downplay his role in the group? I'm just curious. What do you think DL?

We now have SSA, Men who have sex with Men, Guys into Dudes, even Str8 for Str8. I believe this is because few men attracted to men want anything to do with the queens and nellies. I recently went to the wedding of two men in NY. The officiator opened with 'This is not a gay wedding, the men marrying today find it offensive when they are called gay. They are quite simply two men who love each other and have decided to create a life together. They would appreciate it if you don't take the G word to the reception." I know many of you on DL LOVE gay, and are gay. I now think the majority of men who have sex with men do not identify as gay and never will.
Wow.

Skull discovery suggests location where humans first had sex with Neanderthals Skull found in northern Israeli cave in western Galilee, thought to be female and 55,000 years old, connects interbreeding and move from Africa to Europe Ian Sample, science editor; Wednesday 28 January 2015 18.18 GMT An ancient skull found in a cave in northern Israel has cast light on the migration of modern humans out of Africa and the dawn of humanity’s colonisation of the world. For most palaeontologists that might be enough for a single fossil, but the braincase has offered much more: a likely location where the first prehistoric trysts resulted in modern humans having sex with their heavy-browed Neanderthal cousins. Discovered in a cave in western Galilee, the partial skull belonged to an individual, probably a woman, who lived and died in the region about 55,000 years ago, placing modern humans there and then for the first time ever. Homo sapiens walked out of Africa at least 60,000 years ago, but the harsh climate in parts of Europe at the time hampered their spread across much of the continent until about 45,000 years ago. The skull reveals that modern humans reached the Levant where the population may have given rise to those who later colonised Europe when the frozen climate abated and the territory became more habitable. Israel Hershkovitz at Tel Aviv University said the skull, though missing its face and jaws, was an extraordinary find. Distinctly modern in its anatomy, the braincase resembles the European Cro-Magnons (robustly built early modern humans), but retains some African features too. “It’s amazing. This is the first specimen we have that connects Africa to Europe,” Hershkovitz told the Guardian. Palaeontologists spotted the skull on a rocky shelf in the side chamber of the enormous Manot cave that was discovered by chance when a bulldozer broke through the roof while cutting a sewer trench for a nearby village. When scientists abseiled through the hole torn in the ceiling, they found the cave opened up more than 20 metres deep, 50 metres wide and 100 metres long. The original entrance to the cave had collapsed about 30,000 years ago, sealing off the contents. “We couldn’t believe our eyes. We immediately realised it was a prehistoric cave and that it had been inhabited for a very long time. Because the entrance had collapsed so long ago, it had been frozen in time. Nobody had been inside for 30,000 years,” said Hershkovitz. “There is a huge central cave and several beautiful side chambers. In one side chamber, the skull was lying there on top of a rocky shelf. It was there waiting for us. We just had to pick it up,” he added. Excavations at the site have yielded an impressive haul of modern human and antelope bones, but the partial skull is the oldest of the human remains recovered from the cave. How it came to be perched on a shelf in a side chamber of the cave is a mystery: it may have come to rest there after being washed in by floodwater. Or perhaps it was placed there intentionally by another individual living in the cave. Writing in the journal Nature, the scientists explain how dating the skull to 55,000 years ago reveals that modern humans arrived in the region when it was already well populated with Neanderthals. Skeletons of Neanderthals from the same time have been recovered from Amud cave 24 miles (40km) to the east of Manot cave, and from Kebara cave 30 miles to the south. That modern humans and Neanderthals shared the land around Manot cave 50,000 to 60,000 years ago means that the rolling hills of what is now Galilee may have provided the romantic backdrop to the spell of interbreeding that left non-Africans with a smidgen of Neanderthal DNA. Genetic studies suggest that humans and Neanderthals mixed in the same 50,000 to 60,000-year-old period, most probably in western Asia. “Manot is the best candidate for the interbreeding of modern humans with Neanderthals and there is really no other candidate,” Hershkovitz said. “The people at Manot cave are the only population we know of that shared the same geographical region for a very long period of time,” he added. Without DNA from the skull, it is impossible to know if the Manot cave individual was a product of such couplings. Chris Stringer, head of human origins at the Natural History Museum, said the region was certainly a contender for the main interbreeding that happened 50 millennia ago, though further north than modern day Israel was possible. “At about 55,000 years old, this is the first modern human from western Asia which is well dated to the estimated timeframe of interbreeding between early modern humans and Neanderthals,” he said. “Manot might represent some of the elusive first migrants in the hypothesised out-of-Africa event about 60,000 years ago, a population whose descendants ultimately spread right across Asia, and also into Europe. Its discovery raises hopes of more complete specimens from this critical region and time period,” he added.

His first notable job, hosting this travel show on PBS back in 2000. Bradley at the nude beach in Croatia, telling the hot naked dude "you look fabulous!" and then going skinny dipping with him. When I originally saw that I didn't even have to wonder. A few years later when I started watching "Alias" I thought "oh, that's that queen from the travel show."
They've been letting her bark all night next door and she would pace outside by my bedroom window. I tried earphones and earplugs but it was a shrieking kind of sound, with howling. She was young, part retriever. I guess they were trying to get her to grow up. They're horrible people and I couldn't talk to them. No one else would do anything. People here aren't like that. Eventually someone just would have given her antifreeze of something. So I started tossing raw meatballs over the fence with a tiny amount of my Xanax and Diazepam in them, one each night around 10. It worked fine. But I guess there was a build up of something because Tuesday morning I heard screaming and they had found the dog dead with froth all over its face. The woman came to my door and asked if I had seen anything and then as much as asked if I did something. I said no of course not, I loved Shelly. (I would give her treats and even walked her when she was a puppy a few times before the people got weird) Now she's going all over accusing people. She says they're getting two pit bulls and if anything happens she's going to start civil war. Now I don't know what to do. Should I just go and tell her the truth? It was an accident. I could say I was trying to soothe the dog and it was a terrible mistake. If she gets pit bull they'll be barking all the time and I'll have to move, and I can't afford more rent. I'm afraid they'll hurt my cats, which Shelly never did. I have an understanding with my landlord and I'm worried. Can I be arrested if I confess? All I wanted was some sleep. I know how this sounds, but any ideas will be helpful. Has this ever happened to you?

Rick Wiles, host of the radio show “End Times,” believes that while President Obama may not be the Antichrist foretold in the Bible, he’s definitely the latest human incarnation of Satan in a man’s body. His evidence for such a claim comes in the form of two news items: Obama’s filing of a legal brief opposing California’s Proposition 8, and a scheduled visit to Israel this spring. Specifically, Wiles believes that Obama’s desire and work to “change laws” is evidence of a Satanic presence. Wiles emphasizes Daniel 7:25 by saying: “‘He shall persecute the saints of the most high and shall intend to change times and law.’ Now that’s what I want you to focus on. ‘He shall persecute the saints of the most high and shall intend to change times and law.’” Then, after discussing Proposition 8 and Obama’s intent in filing the brief, he says,“So brace yourself, Mr. Obama may declare this week that homosexual marriage is a constitutional right. Is he the Antichrist who changes times and law? Only time will tell.” The religious right has a history of saying that gay marriage will be the undoing of civilization. The dean of Liberty University’s school of law insisted earlier this year that allowing gay marriage will open the floodgates to destroying freedom of speech and religion, families, and traditional marriage, and will ultimately lead to revolution. And former Pope Benedict XVI called out gay people for denying their God-given sexual identities, and warned that gay marriage (along with euthanasia and abortion) threatened world peace. But Wiles takes it further, using Obama’s legal brief against Prop. 8 as a segue into discussing the possibility of Obama cementing his position as Antichrist by walking into the Temple Mount area and proclaiming himself God. It appears that, to Wiles, it’s a little too convenient that Obama would urge the Supreme Court to declare gay marriage a constitutional right and then visit Jerusalem, and says, “I think it will be interesting to see if he enters Jerusalem on the same day Jesus entered the city prior to Passover. “Now here’s a crazy thought, I’m not suggesting that it’s going to happen; I’m just saying it’s kind of a crazy thought. Suppose that Mr. Obama enters the Temple and declares himself as God. Now, I don’t even want to go there today, I think it is too early for that happen, but this is starting to get a little spooky, isn’t it?” While he couches his comments in “supposedly” and “I’m not saying,” it’s pretty clear what he is saying. However, it’s extremely unlikely that Obama would do something so offensively crass. Part of the issue with the religious right, particularly those on the extreme right, is a certain inflexibility and fear of change. Given that times have changed quite a bit, not only through the making and changing of laws, but also through scientific and technological advances, one has to wonder just how many of the innovators of these changes have been considered an Antichrist. Times and laws change whether we like it or not. Obama is not the first U.S. president to be suspected of being Antichrist. Fundamentalist Christians tend to suspect any leader who is unusually influential and charismatic. Presumably, the first U.S. president thought to be Antichrist was FDR, both for his influential abilities and his desire to form the United Nations. One of the things that Antichrist is supposed to do is create a one-world government, with himself as the head. Many evangelical Christians at the time believed that, if FDR wasn’t Antichrist, he was definitely under Antichrist’s influence. JFK was also thought to be Antichrist when he was running for president, and Gregory Stuart Gordon thought that Reagan was Antichrist. It seems that the fundamentalists look hardest at a person’s charisma, as Antichrist is supposed to be extremely charismatic and uses that charisma to influence the world to follow him. They do, however, tend to ignore other characteristics and qualifications when declaring that this leader or that leader is a likely Antichrist.Unfortunately, the paranoia that comes with that only furthers the politics of fear.

I know his many, many Datalounge fans will be extremely disappointed. One of the things I’ve always tried to do at the Dish is to be up-front with readers. This sometimes means grotesque over-sharing; sometimes it means I write imprudent arguments I have to withdraw; sometimes it just means a monthly update on our revenues and subscriptions; and sometimes I stumble onto something actually interesting. But when you write every day for readers for years and years, as I’ve done, there’s not much left to hide. And that’s why, before our annual auto-renewals, I want to let you know I’ve decided to stop blogging in the near future. Why? Two reasons. The first is one I hope anyone can understand: although it has been the most rewarding experience in my writing career, I’ve now been blogging daily for fifteen years straight (well kinda straight). That’s long enough to do any single job. In some ways, it’s as simple as that. There comes a time when you have to move on to new things, shake your world up, or recognize before you crash that burn-out does happen. The second is that I am saturated in digital life and I want to return to the actual world again. I’m a human being before I am a writer; and a writer before I am a blogger, and although it’s been a joy and a privilege to have helped pioneer a genuinely new form of writing, I yearn for other, older forms. I want to read again, slowly, carefully. I want to absorb a difficult book and walk around in my own thoughts with it for a while. I want to have an idea and let it slowly take shape, rather than be instantly blogged. I want to write long essays that can answer more deeply and subtly the many questions that the Dish years have presented to me. I want to write a book. I want to spend some real time with my parents, while I still have them, with my husband, who is too often a ‘blog-widow’, my sister and brother, my niece and nephews, and rekindle the friendships that I have simply had to let wither because I’m always tied to the blog. And I want to stay healthy. I’ve had increasing health challenges these past few years. They’re not HIV-related; my doctor tells me they’re simply a result of fifteen years of daily, hourly, always-on-deadline stress. These past few weeks were particularly rough – and finally forced me to get real. We’ll have more to say – and we’re sure you will as well – in due course. I particularly want to take some time to thank my indispensable, amazing colleagues in a subsequent post. For the time being, auto-renewals have been suspended, and the pay-meter has been disabled. While we’re in this strange, animated suspension, I just wanted to take one post to thank you personally, the readers, founding members and subscribers to the Dish. It’s been a strange relationship, hasn’t it? Some of you – the original white-on-navy ones – went through the 2000 election and recount with me, when I had to explain the word “blog” to anyone I met; we experienced 9/11 together in real time – and all the fraught months and years after; and then the Iraq War; and the gay marriage struggles of the last fifteen historic years. We endured the Bush re-election together and then championed – before almost anyone else – the Obama candidacy together. Remember that first night of those Iowa caucuses? Remember the titanic fight with the Clintons? And then the entire arc of the Obama presidency. You were there when it was just me and a tip jar for six years, and at Time, and at The Atlantic, and the Daily Beast, and then as an independent company. When we asked you two years ago to catch us as we jumped into independence, you came through and then some. In just two years, you built a million dollar revenue company, with 30,000 subscribers, a million monthly readers, and revenue growth of 17 percent over the first year. You made us unique in this media world – and we were able to avoid the sirens of clickbait and sponsored content. We will never forget it. You were there when I couldn’t believe Palin’s fantasies; and when we live-blogged the entire Green Revolution (cont)
After a lifetime of ridiculing it, my partner and I went to Branson for the weekend with his ex-wife's cousin and her husband. They have been going for 35 years and have been badgering us for years, and we finally relented. We stayed in a condo on a golf course with a view of a volcano erupting at a putt-putt golf course. Beavers were running across the "real" golf course. We dined and cruised on the Branson Belle on Table Rock Lake and watched a floozy "America's Got Talent" reject violinist perform while suspended from silks above our heads. We saw deeply, desperately closeted chorus boys all wearing phony wedding rings obviously bought at the same discount house. We went to Silver Dollar CIty. We saw the tornado damage. We saw where Andy WIlliams lives and is trying to recover from his bladder cancer. We saw closeted rednecks rubbing their crotches in outlet mall restrooms. We saw six African Americans, and two of them were on stage. We heard more about Jesus than we hear on televangelism shows. We saw more fat people in one place than we've ever seen - the altitude of the place is sinking from the weight. And we did like the crafts people and sales people in Silver Dollar City, who are local somehow all manage to be authentic and decent and interesting. Anyone else ever see this trip of a place? God, it's so different than I imagined.
I actually turned the channel. Way too many babies.

TV preacher Pat Robertson on Tuesday advised a senior citizen who was a paying member of his 700 Club teleministry that a reverse mortgage was a “good deal” if she was having trouble making ends meet. “I have been a 700 Club partner for many years,” a woman named Maria explained in an email. “I am 67 years old and still working because retirement money does not cover our basic expenses.” “I was thinking about a reverse mortgage but have my doubts,” Maria wrote. “What do you think?” Robertson pointed out that a reverse mortgage prevented the bank from taking “your house away from you as long as you are alive and living.” “You don’t have to pay it off, but somebody has to pay it off, namely the United States taxpayer,” Robertson continued. “So, it’s not a good deal for the taxpayers, but for most people it’s a pretty good deal.” The televangelist recommended that Maria speak to a financial adviser, but added that “it could be a good deal for you.” Becoming a 700 Club partner starts at $240 a year for a basic membership. A Chairman’s Circle membership runs $10,000 a year.

After CBS TV executives saw her in Annie, they thought she would be great on TV. Ironically both she and Charlotte Rae debuted with shows set at an all girls school in 1979. What no one had told CBS was something that the company of Annie had discovered very quickly: that Loudon, in the words of the show’s composer Charles Strouse, “really, genuinely, sincerely, hated children . . . . She was very ill-natured, in that respect.” Loudon would shoo away not only the many little girls in the show’s cast but also the dog, Sandy, whom she also despised. Doubtless she was less than thrilled that, in her bid for more widespread recognition, the baggage of Annie made youngsters an unavoidable part of the package. While Loudon’s pedophobia might have been perfect for the larger-than-life hostility of Miss Hannigan, it couldn’t work for a den-mother sister to Mrs. Garrett. “Dorothy really didn’t like the kids, I don’t think,” Shayne said. “And although she was at war with the kids, you had to feel that she also loved them. That didn’t really work. Dotty was a tough lady, you know. She had a lot of hostility.” Loudon’s husband, a television arranger and composer named Norman Paris, had died unexpectedly just six weeks after she won the Tony for Annie, upending her personal life just as she reached her professional peak. Kip Gilman also observed Loudon’s discomfort around her young co-stars, and thought that Manz – a casting director’s off-the-streets discovery whose experience up to that point had been limited to Terrence Malick’s highly idiosyncratic style of moviemaking – was especially ill-at-ease with the demands of performing comedic material in front of a live audience. Gilman suggested that, as a consequence of all that, the other three episodes may have been altered to reduce the girls’ roles and build up the screen time of the (still underdeveloped) faculty characters. That was a miscalculation, since the juveniles were more appealing than any of the adults on display. The closest Dorothy came to being any good was in the premiere episode (it was the second one taped), “The Bookworm Turns.” Loudon was less manic in this one than in the other three, and it ends with a sweet moment in which she consoles her gawkiest charge (the appealing Susan Brecht, above) over an unrequited crush on Gilman’s character, Mr. Landis (also a totally implausible romantic interest for Loudon, who was old enough to be Gilman’s mother).
Why was Dorothy Loudon such a hit in Annie? She really, genuinely, sincerely, ***HATED*** children

Colin Farrell Jokes About Ewan McGregor's Penis: "He Doesn't Wear It Like a Badge of Honor" Celebrity Body Jan. 27, 2015 AT 8:00PM By Esther Lee Spilling secrets! Ewan McGregor spoke to Nylon Guys in its March 2015 cover story about his roles (past and present) and his wild Hollywood life, which somehow included commentary from a fellow celebrity, who had several (ahem!) gratuitous remarks about the actor. Colin Farrell, who costarred with the Scottish hunk in the 2008 thriller Cassandra's Dream, joked about McGregor being rather well-endowed. "I don’t think Ewan is as proud of his penis as most men who are as well hung would—or should—or could be," Farrell said, likening it to McGregor's acting talents. "I think that’s the greatest demonstration of his innate humility, that he doesn’t wear it like a badge of honor." McGregor, 43, meanwhile reminisced about his wild London life in the late-'90s, when he partied alongside future parents like Jude Law and Angelina Jolie. "Jonny [Lee Miller] and Angelina were shooting Hackers," McGregor recalled of Jolie's film with her first husband. "Jude had done Shopping. I’d done Shallow Grave. We were all kicking off. It was happening." The Son of a Gun actor noted to the mag that he and his fellow rising stars at the time "were having a right laugh." Without divulging any specific details, McGregor reflected: "It [was] the ’90s in London. It was quite fun… That’s all you’re getting." The Trainspotting actor also spoke about possibly reprising his role as Renton in the rumored sequel of the film. "He’s now a Glaswegian running a gym in Amsterdam," McGregor told Nylon. "I haven’t seen a script or anything, but it seemed to be quite real. I spoke to Danny [Boyle] about it. I met him randomly in a restaurant [last year] before he went up to Scotland to sit with our writer John Hodge and Andrew Macdonald, the producer." As for possibly tackling another famous past role -- as Obi-Wan in Star Wars? While the actor insisted that he would be happy to don Obi-Wan's suit again, McGregor compared the process of shooting a blockbuster film to "watching paint dry." He added that nobody from J.J. Abrams' upcoming Star Wars reboot asked him to reprise his role or even make a cameo. "They didn't ask me to do anything in it," McGregor told the mag. According to the actor, nothing in his career compares to the joy of fatherhood. "I’ve been a dad for 18 years. Your work reflects your life, and the biggest element of my life is that I’m a dad," McGregor confessed. "That’s the most important thing of all." The father of four daughters -- Clara, Jamyan, Esther, and Anouk -- admitted that he curbed one of his lifelong passions, riding motorcycles, for the sake of his family. "My wife would absolutely kill me," McGregor mused of Eve Mavrakis, his spouse of 18 years, discovering that he was still riding bikes. "That’s the one thing—that and tattoos. Clara, my eldest, started talking about tattoos. I said, ‘Dude, I got my tattoo when I was 30 years old. You’re 17? 18? I can assure you that what you think you want on your arm now isn’t what you’re going to want on your arm when you’re my age. Don’t do it.'"

I'm counting on DL to point out the differences. I've avoided getting involved with bisexual men for years - not for any issue with their own sexual orientation but because, based on my experiences, I've always felt they were different from gay men. But I met a really great guy and we're very attracted to one another. So I thought I'd break my rule and give it a go. We've had a few dates and have a lot of chemistry. I've made it clear that I'm not a bottom, that I'm versatile, that I'm gay and that I'm a grown man. I feel strongly that his sexuality shouldn't define mine in a limiting way. I've been pretty persuasive about the joys of ass play and I haven't been aggressive and have promised to take my time with him, etc. His comfort level is my highest concern. And he has a gorgeous ass. But he's a bit of a tease, a bit coy. He says things like, "If you're lucky, maybe I'll let you do this...," etc. I suppose a certain amount of negotiation is to be expected but it makes think what I've always thought about this equation - bisexual men just want to control everything. Any experience here?

When you have friends over for a casual dinner when do you serve the salad? Before, during, or after the main course? Typically I serve everything at once. When my guests are seated with their mains I pass around the salad. I've been to dinners where it's served after and I don't really like that. I know it's supposed to cleanse the palate or some such nonsense, but it feels like a leafy green let-down after a delicious dinner. And I don't like serving it before the main either. That's very American. I've already served my guests appetizers and serving the salad before the main just seems like too much "little" food before the main event. I prefer to do things restaurant-like and bring it all out at once. I realize a lot of this is cultural and there probably isn't one correct way of doing things. I'm just curious how you, Dataloungers of taste and style, do things. Also, do you do a cheese course before dessert? Or AS dessert? I never have but again it feels like too much little food going on.
"River's Edge" understood '80s kids -- and what they'd do to combat that horrible feeling of emptiness About a year and a half ago, I interviewed Daniel Waters, screenwriter of the enduring and dark teen comedy and media satire “Heathers” for the book (“Twee”) I was researching at the time. The conversation was genial and funny, and I could tell he was what we used to call at my old employer Spin magazine a “quote machine.” Soon, the subject got around to films of the late American auteur John Hughes, particularly his iconic high school trilogy of “Sixteen Candles” (1984), “The Breakfast Club” (1985) and “Pretty in Pink” (the 1986 romantic comedy that he wrote but did not direct). “I felt like Hughes was trying to coddle teenagers and almost suck up to them, idealize them,” Waters said, with almost no fear of reprisal from the many millions who hold these films (and Ferris Bueller … and even, to paraphrase Jeff Daniels in “The Squid and the Whale,” minor Hughes efforts like “Some Kind of Wonderful” and “She’s Having a Baby,” dear), “[With 'Heathers') I was more of a terrorist coming after John Hughes. What drove me nuts about the Hughes moves was the third act was always something about how bad adults were. When you grow up your heart dies. Hey, your heart dies when you’re 12!” One could make an argument for Waters’ "Heathers" (directed as a gauzy, occasionally surrealist morality play by Michael Lehmann) as the darkest teen film of all time. The humor is pitch-black, there’s a body count, a monocle, corn nuts and an utter excoriation of clueless boomers who wonder, as the supremely camp Paul Lynde did a quarter of a century earlier in the film adaptation of "Bye Bye Birdie," what (in fuck) is the matter with kids today? But it’s not. Not even close, when compared with a film that preceded it by only three years, the Neal Jimenez-penned, Tim Hunter-directed 1986 drama “River's Edge,” which is released this month on DVD after years of being difficult to find for home viewing. No other film captures more accurately what it’s like to be dead inside during the end of the Cold War, the height of MTV and the invasion of concerned but impotent parents. "River's Edge" was the one film that seemed to understand that it wasn’t the rap music, heavy metal music or even drugs that made '80s kids, it was … nothing. As in the feeling of searching your soul for what you should feel and finding it empty, and slowly, horrifyingly getting used to it to the point that at least one, maybe more of us, will do anything, even commit murder, in order to combat that horrible void. I didn’t want to kill anyone or even myself, but I wanted to disappear, or at least be frozen and wake up in art school in the early '90s, when bands like Nirvana gave that feeling a voice, and a few anthems.

People thought I was either having a seizure or a stroke. Instead it was dystonia, which was brought on by a medication I took. If you don't know what dystonia is: [quote]Dystonia is a neurological movement disorder, in which sustained muscle contractions cause twisting and repetitive movements or abnormal postures. The movements may resemble a tremor. Dystonia is often initiated or worsened by voluntary movements, and symptoms may “overflow” into adjacent muscles. I was found on my bed acting like a possessed 12-year-old Linda Blair. It got to the point where I couldn't control my jaw, and I could no longer swallow. My head kept rocking side to side into the mattress. My body looked like a craftmatic bed. My legs and my head were almost hitting one another. I'm all bruised from my arm constantly bashing itself into the wooden footboard. I loved being strapped down when they took me out to drive me to the hospital. I had been having problems before with falling due to dizziness. That should have been a sign, I guess. Has anyone dealt with dystonia, or know someone who has? Mine was from medication, but others have it chronically.

It's been a rough week for Sam Smith. First, he was called “an ugly motherfucker” by Howard Stern, who also asked listeners: “You know what I like about the guy? He’s fat, I love it.” Sam then posted a shirtless selfie on Instagram, writing, "I say what's on my mind. I might do a little time." Then it was reported that he amicably settled a copyright dispute with Tom Petty over the likeness between Smith's three-time Grammy-nominated "Stay With Me" and Petty's "I Won't Back Down" hit. Smith's reps confirmed that "Stay With Me" is now co-credited to Petty and Lynne, adding that while there are undeniable "similarities" between the two singles, it was a "complete coincidence."

Allegedly, the locker room attendant took the New England Patriots’ footballs to “another area” before they made their way onto the field for the AFC Championship Game against the Indianapolis Colts. A surveillance video reportedly exists, which Pro Football Talk says was discovered by the Patriots and turned over to the the NFL. The video reportedly shows the attendant taking two bags of footballs -- 12 balls to be used by the Patriots, and 12 by the Colts -- into a bathroom for approximately 90 seconds, according to PFT.

Celebrity Big Brother star quits after calling Perez Hilton a ‘faggot’ 18th January 2015, 12:27 PM, Nick Duffy R&B singer Alexander O’Neal has walked out of Celebrity Big Brother, after getting an official warning for calling Perez Hilton a “faggot”. The singer and the gossip blogger had a tense confrontation last night, after Hilton seemed to deliberately provoke him. O’Neal ranted: “I know exactly what you’re doing, you know exactly what you’d get in America. You’re taunting me. You coming over here, you following me. “How could Big Brother let you do this? Oh wait, you ARE Big Brother. You not gonna say one word? “You just gonna sit there will that silly ass faggot look on your face?” The housemate was given an official warning by Big Brother for his use of ‘unacceptable’ language – but was not thrown out the house. Ken Morley was removed from the house earlier this week after using the word “negro”. Mr O’Neal later walked out the house today, becoming the third celebrity to leave. A statement from Channel 5 said: “Alexander O’Neal has chosen to leave the Celebrity Big Brother House.” Drag Race judge Michelle Visage also recently had a confrontation with Hilton, claiming he is “setting the LGBT community back” half a century”. Visage told Big Brother: “[Perez] sets our community back fifty years. He’s an embarrassment, I do not want people judging the gay community on this ass.” Celebrity Big Brother will continue tonight, at 9pm.

I know I am probably late to this party but : I saw a PBS program about Oscar Hammerstein ll , and Matthew Morrison was the host. He was a good host, but I could not imagine him as a straight guy in real life. That opinon was not based on his voice or body language, but just on him taken in as a whole person. Why he would shy away from being gay is a mystery. Being gay would not ruin his career. It might exactually.

I just got a Chromecast and they gave me a 2-month free trial for Hulu Positive and a 3-month free trial for DramaFever. I've never watched a T-drama before but I started streaming "In Time With You" on a whim because the description said it also had a gay character, and Wow, I got completely sucked in and binge-watched the entire season. The show is intelligent, poignant, character-driven and has a lot to say about love, friendship, relationships, customer service, parents, and growing old. I can't believe how much I loved it. Ariel is my favorite T-actress and Bolin is amazing. He's so so not my type but his personality on the show, coupled with his smile, his dimples and the facial expressions he makes (especially his wedding picture), has completely won me over and I now think he's the ideal boyfriend. Everyone needs a Li Daren in their life. Now that it's over, I need to find something similar to stream. What are other good shows to stream on DramaFever?

Julia Roberts is making a Batkid movie. And no, this isn't yet another comic book adaptation. It's based on the true story of a 5-year-old leukemia patient who, thanks to the Make-A-Wish foundation, was able to become Batman's sidekick for a day. Batkid (whose real name is Miles Scott) captured our hearts and in November 2013 when the Bay Area Make-A-Wish turned San Francisco into Gotham City. He got to drive around in the Batmobile, defeat various supervillains, and was eventually presented the keys to the city by the mayor himself. His heartwarming story went viral online as it unfolded in real life, culminating in a documentary called Batkid Begins. In the trailer, you can see Miles' father compare the battle against leukemia to Batman's battle against evil. Now, Julia Roberts has optioned the rights to make Batkid's story into a feature film, essentially a dramatized remake of Batkid Begins. Roberts also intends to star in the movie, possibly as the Make-A-Wish Foundation's San Francisco chapter director Patricia Wilson, who organized the city-wide effort to give Miles Scott a perfect day as Batkid.

I'm so tired of looking for meat ball recipes and they always include egg, bread crumbs, etc. I don't wanna make the meat balls, bitches, I just want to buy a frozen package at the store and add sauce to it. Why do they act like everyone makes their own, when it's probably 5% at most? I've made the classic with grape jelly, instant coffee and hot sauce, and it's pretty good. Any others?

Is it safe to assume that a gay man who's relatively hot, in great shape, etc, has done, at one point in his life: 1 - porn (video or photography) 2 - escorting 3 - "modelling" (aka model mayhem) 4 - stripping 5 - all of the above It seems that there are as many men involved in the "activities" listed above as there are gay men. Every hot gay men is simply an exhibitionist and will automatically take there clothes off for money at one point because there's no stigma about it in the gay community.

Has anybody else caught this trashy, guilty-pleasure of a show on TLC? It's about American men and women who bring potential international spouses from abroad, and they have 90 days to figure out whether to tie the knot. Anyhow, caught this appalling pairing: Danielle (overweight, unattractive 41 y/o woman from Ohio) who brings over Mohamed, this hot young 26 y/o Tunisian stud. The pair is so physically mismatched, it's painful to watch. It's obvious to everyone else except Danielle that he is only using her for a green card. He looks like he's enjoyed the mansex in the past, as well..

I hurt my back 4 weeks ago. Lower left side, don't know how. It got better, almost felt healed, then a few days ago it became agonizing. Sometimes I can't even sleep, I wake up from the pain. I've been using icy-hot and those heated bandages you stick on. I've been taking lots of Aleve and aspirin. This am was awful again and it made me cry. I got out my hair dyer and oh, that helped. It occurred to me to buy a heating pad so I'm going to the store to get one. When I go to the doctor, I'm afraid I'm going to come off as a drug seeker when all I want is pain relief. I haven't been to a doctor in 3 years due to recent job loss, but now I can go. But DataLoungers, do you know what is wrong with my back?
He says that even though it''s near physiologically impossible for a boihole to get wet, it can happen. According to him, there are some rare, documented cases, with psychological factors identical to mine. Essentially, my hole''s craving for cock is so strong, the desire so acute, that my mind actually forces my hole to get all dewy. He nailed it. So you see, the mussy can moisten, but there must be extreme physical motivators as well as pychological factors at play. Good day.

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.
She is Roseanne without the irony. I just think she's crass, tries too hard, and I want her to go away. That insipid "Identity Theft" is a total waste of celluloid, and I have and will never see her CBS sitcoms. McCarthyians - how do I best appreciate her? Learn me!
Well, his fmaily did own slaves. Thank goodness for him no coloureds are nominated for Oscars this year, though. "British actor Benedict Cumberbatch has apologized after describing black people as 'colored' on US television, saying he is 'an idiot' and is 'devastated to have caused offense'. The 38-year-old Sherlock star was widely condemned after using the racial term during a debate on the lack of diversity on British screens on the PBS talk show Tavis Smiley last Wednesday. But on Monday night, he issued an apology for his 'incorrect' and 'offensive' use of the phrase, saying: 'I'm devastated to have caused offense by using this outmoded terminology. 'I offer my sincere apologies. I make no excuse for my being an idiot and know the damage is done.' Cumberbatch, nominated for an Oscar for The Imitation Game, added: 'I can only hope this incident will highlight the need for correct usage of terminology that is accurate and inoffensive. 'The most shaming aspect of this for me is that I was talking about racial inequality in the performing arts in the UK and the need for rapid improvements in our industry when I used the term."

I have to say... the premiere was a bit underwhelming. It seemed awfully "forced" and "contrived". I hope it's just the nature of being a pilot that has to set up so much, and that future episodes are better. I'm still in.

This is a Two-time Oscar & Emmy winner. She can't afford an apartment in NYC? Being a two-time Oscar winner, surely she has tons of scripts thrown in her direction. But she told the NY Times she finds it difficult to find enough work to pay her rent. “I have to move out of my apartment soon,” she said. Is she a bad money manager?
Just think in the 70s there was Peter Falk, Sammy Davis Jr. AND Sandy Duncan. now nobody. It seems like a step backwards!
Ancient planetary system with its own sun-like star found in the galaxy Discovery of five planets orbiting around Kepler 444 suggest ancient worlds might lurk around other stars in more habitable reaches of the Milky Way Ian Sample, science editor, Tuesday 27 January 2015 09.06 EST The discovery of five archaic planets around one of the oldest stars in the galaxy has raised the possibility that the Milky Way might be home to extremely ancient forms of life. Astronomers spotted the planets as they circled a star called Kepler 444, which lies 117 light years from Earth in the direction of Lyra, a constellation in the northern sky. Researchers used variations in the brightness of the star to calculate its age and found that it was among the first generation of stars to illuminate the Milky Way 11.2bn years ago. The sun, Earth and other planets of the solar system formed much more recently, about 4.5bn years ago, making the Kepler 444 planetary system more than twice as old as our own. By the time the Earth had formed, the planets around Kepler 444 were already older than the Earth is today. The planets that orbit Kepler 444 are not hospitable to life as we know it. But the discovery of such profoundly old and almost certainly rocky planets suggests that other ancient worlds might lurk around other stars in more habitable reaches of the Milky Way. “This tells us that these kinds of planets formed very early in the history of the galaxy. If some fraction formed in the habitable zones around their host stars, then you have environments where life may develop, and it could have been there for a very long time,” said Bill Chaplin, professor of astrophysics at the University of Birmingham. Writing in The Astrophysical Journal, the scientists add: “Earth-size planets have formed throughout most of the Universe’s 13.bn year history, leaving open the possibility for the existence of ancient life in the galaxy.” The worlds that orbit Kepler 444 are small, at least by planetary standards, and range in size from Mercury to Venus. They are extremely close to their parent star, with all five planets closer in than Mercury is to the sun. A year on each planet lasts fewer than 10 Earth days. Kepler 444 is about three quarters the size and mass of the sun, and though 700C cooler, the planets circle so close to the star that their surfaces are permanently fried. The habitable zone around the star, where the temperature is just right for liquid water to flow, lies six times further out than the outermost of the five planets, said Chaplin. Researchers measured the age of the star by using Nasa’s Kepler space telescope to observe minute changes in its brightness. The intensity of stars varies because sound waves trapped inside them make them contract and expand, as though they were breathing. When a star compresses it gets hotter and brighter. When it expands, it gets cooler and dimmer. How a star’s brightness varies depends on the speed of sound waves within, and that is governed by the composition of its core. This material at the heart of the star changes as it grows old, for example, as the star converts its hydrogen fuel into helium. “As you change the composition of the core, you change the speed at which sound waves moves through the star, and that affects the periods at which it resonates,” said Chaplin. “Because we can do this astroseismology, we can get very precise measurement of the age. It’s a very old star, over a 11bn years old.” Astronomers are now keen to discover other ancient planetary systems, in the hope of pinpointing the beginning of the era of planetary formation in the universe.

This Downy Woodpecker visits every winter to a feeder outside my window. He's been coming around for about 5 years. The oldest known DW reached age 11y 11m. No evidence of a lady friend. DW comes daily but usually waits until the sparrows are finished. I don't get much variety of birds visiting here. Occasionally I get Blue Jays, who are easily spooked. I had a dove nest on my window sill recently, and I had a hawk visit once. The hawk made a God-awful screeching sound. I hope he didn't eat the dove.

that corporations are not given enough tax breaks. I wanted to break someone's head open, preferably the billionaires. How can you reason with these people? The guy sold his company for a billion and a half but still complaining about he didn't get enough tax breaks. His thinking is so screwed up but how could I say, "your son-in-law is a selfish greedy, asshole."
This is just sad. Give it a rest, Goldie.
Loaded with supplies that befuddle Science but can be quickly identified by DL. [quote]Archaeologists also found the remains of two pump clysters. These would have been used to pump fluid into the rectum, allowing it to be absorbed quickly, Carnes-McNaughton said. It's not clear exactly why this would have been done, but there are plans to analyze the clysters to find out what material they contained before the ship was wrecked. Enema...designed to clean out the cabin boys for a proper fucking. How obvious could it be?

This is a bit "inside baseball" but is anyone else curious about the drama going on behind this movie? First, the director pisses off fanboys by making Johnny Storm black (the awesome Michael B Jordan) but casting Rooney Mara as his sister Susan. WTF? Why not cast a black actress? Then he says the story is more "down to earth" than most comic movies. They fight world eating giants and mole men. They are NOT the "Down2Earth 4". Now, they are shooting new footage for the next week or so. During pre-production a number of directors were approached to replace Trank (director) and no one would touch it that far into the production phase with a set script. Marvel prez has canceled the comic book and taken down all F4 pictures, refused new commissions on the characters, and basically forbidden anyone to mention movie properties Fox controls, including X-Men. Anyone else hope it is a "Lone Ranger vs. Ishtar" level bomb?
I have two straight friends who''ve confessed to getting oral sex from men but say they were freaked out about the idea of reciprocating or, worse, taking it up the ass.\ \ On the other hand, I have another "straight" friend who only wants to get fucked - absolutely nothing else - when he hooks up with a guy. He just loves to have his ass opened up and his girlfriend isn''t into it using toys, etc..\ \ Anyone else know similar guys?
Super Genes! Christopher Reeve's Handsome Look-Alike Son Will Joins ESPN's SportsCenter by Lily Harrison, Today 4:36 PM PST ESPN is adding a few new faces to their SportsCenter lineup, and one of them may look pretty familiar. Christopher Reeve's 22-year-old son, Will Reeve, will be doing special reports for the hit program, along with comedian Reese Waters and social media correspondent Sarina Morales. The trio have been cast in an attempt to reach a younger demographic and will be reporting from the 16th hole at this weekend's Phoenix Open. Will, who bears a striking resemblance to his late father with his jawline and broad shoulders, spoke to The Wrap about his new gig. "I'll be different from a traditional SportsCenter report, because I won't be behind a desk in a suit," he shared. "These stories are not going to appear on air and then fade off—they are going to get an extended life digitally and on social media." And when asked what he thought his late parents would think of the exciting news, Will answered, "Hopefully they would get a kick out of it." He continued, "The things I am interested in and passionate about are similar to what they were. My parents definitely define who I am. My dad and I had a huge bond and shared a love of sports. I would hope they would be proud and say, 'Great job,' no matter what. Then my dad would probably tell me to straighten my tie!"

So, the predicted 24-36" of snow was 4-6". The entire city was shut down for a tiny snowstorm. But we're supposed to believe we can predict the climate 48 years from now while predictions 48 HOURS ago were spectacularly and ridiculously wrong. How can any sane person believe bullshit like this?

Aka Serge. On Flirt 4 Free, he was known as Hercules X. He is gay, according to his profile. I'm surprised this guy hasn't had more attention on DL. He has a hot body, pecs, ass, face and, well...everything else. I had seen pics of him before but didn't know his name. Click some pics to enlarge.
What is up with this guy? He claims to be gay but likes sleeping with women, and only says he's gay because he doesn't wanna marry a woman (for now), and didn't manage to fulfill his dream of getting a girl pregnant as a teenager. He also makes disparaging comments about bottoms as being "too gay", puts down his boyfriend and goes on and on about how great women are. Bisexuals are weird, but self-hating bisexuals are downright crazy.
The Shining is on cable this morning. It's been years since I've watched it. I think the music should be its own character because it is wonderful. Was Jack Nicholson drunk during the entire shooting of this movie? He appears to be. Lastly, in older movies when people are driving cars, why do they move their hands so dramatically on the wheel? Was it that difficult to steer a car in the 1980s?

My office has a guy from corporate (in NYC) working here temporarily this summer. First of all, he tells everyone, again and again, that he's from New York. He's been here six weeks now, and I still hear him say "New York" at least a dozen times a day. He also makes sure to tell everyone that everything is better in New York, or that it started there. He'll say stuff like "Food trucks? We invented those in New York." The most surprising thing is how little he knows about anywhere but New York. He seems to lack basic geographical knowledge. Yesterday, he was claiming that Denver is part of "the South." Everyone in the office is eagerly awaiting his final day. Sept. 13!

Baltimore Ravens Tight End Owen Daniels and his wonderful ass

So, I'm about to jump back into the job market, and I need some suggestions. I've generally had good skin all my life, and am careful to wash it (with a gentle scrub). But I noticed a few small bumps on one side - I think these are the sebacious bumps people are talking about. I've also noticed gray specks in my goatee. What should I do, and what can I do without pouring a bunch of toxic chemicals on my skin and hair?
I like my job and colleagues, but I have a new boss and we do not get along. He's a nit-picking micromanager with absolutely no sense of humor, and he makes me dread going into work each day. I love it when he's out on travel...I can literally feel my muscles and body relax. How does one cope with a horrid boss? Please regale me with advice and strategies.
The Markie Post thread got me thinking about this good-looking Italian who played her husband on "Night Court." He was also Fallon''s cop lover in "Dynasty" and Little Carmine on "The Sopranos."\ \ When he was young, he was a hot hunk - today he''s still a good-looking daddy. \ \ Nothing online at all about him ever being married (but lots of support for liberal causes). Anybody know anything about Ray Abruzzo?
He got married in 2010 and was appointed captain in 2010. Any truth to this DL rumor?
