Oprah's bookclub: a new direction?
2009-09-06 14:05:00 I sat down to write about the fiasco which occurred a handful of years ago between Oprah Winfrey and Jonathan Franzen, a fiasco in which the author wasn't as over the moon as Oprah would have liked about her endorsement of his book, and was dis-invited from appearing on her show. (To be fair, the particularly cringe-worthy comment often cited against him is commonly not recited in full. He wasn't wild with excitement over her endorsement, but he did complement her very well in the continuation of his remark. I'm just saying.)I thought to write that because with Oprah taping her season premier on the front doorstep of my workplace on Tuesday of this approaching week, and with literature almost...
Maine Gay Marriage ad: ?Fluffy,? but Step in Right Direction
2009-08-22 20:40:00 “EqualityMaine” has released its first ad in the campaign to veto the people’s veto of the bill passed by the elected legislature and signed by the elected Governor to recognize same-sex marriages in the Pine Tree State. It’s a decent ad which avoids the pitfalls of some of the other so-called “equality” groups in other states; ...

HT motor direction of rotation
2009-08-10 10:36:00 Why direction of rotation(DOR) is marked on HT motors? The motors are manufactured at one place & the pump/blower to which it is coupled at another place. If the rotation of the pump/blower is not as per the requirement then it is possible to change the DOR of motor. I know how to do it, but the
Obama’s health care plan is a step in the right direction
2009-08-03 16:50:00 I have yet to hear an articulate and well-reasoned argument for why we should delay in passing significant health care reform. In fact, it seems that most Republicans and right-wingers are motivated by a desire to see this administration fail and so they have decided to, once again, scare Americans into complacency with misinformation and outright lies. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Their entire movement isn’t about offering solutions and can be summed up with the image of people who are claiming Obama wants to kill your grandma. Make no mistake, the people organizing this nonsense (read: lobbyists for insurance companies and hospital conglomerates) know they are full of shit. In contrast, the people on the ground are just easily led. They are simple fools who can’t understand the merits of our President’s plan. Which begs the question: Are conservative radio talk show hosts the ones to blame? Or are we at fault for not presenting a clear and persua...

Let's Take A Step... In A Different Direction...
2009-02-26 00:06:00 You can't change the past. You can re-write it for your own convenience, you can re-tell it so it sounds better, feels better, seems better... so that you are the hero of the piece and not a bona fide bastard. But you can't change the events. If you made a pass at someone, you made that pass at them. Telling them it didn't happen won't change the fact that you did. If you shagged around, you shagged around. Pretending you're as pure as the driven snow isn't going to change that that. For that matter, you can't change the future. All you can change is the here and now. That's why people are always banging on about living in the moment because that's the only thing you have control over...I can safely say that I hate losing control over myself. I know I don't enjoy it when that happens, mostly because I end up feeling helpless and vulnerable. I end up hating myself and wondering when can I start moving forward and regain that sense of control back into my life.I'm preparing...

The Floating House By Confused-Direction
2008-11-11 20:42:00 The Floating House (or Das Schwimmhaus) may, with its prefab style set aboard a floating platform as if a cabin, seem like a confused direction, but, in fact, this German-designed and German-moored home is making good use of urban density and sprirally living costs for its owners. Combining the dual experiences of Germany design company Confused-Direction's Flo Florian (interior design) and Sascha Akkermann (master carpentry,) The Floating House fulfils the increasingly modern craving for a new type of existential habitat, and one which works with our pocket alongside the planet. Sourcing a local workforce committed to sustainability and re-usability, Florian and Akkermann have created a home which is not only eco-friendly in regards to building materials, but also in allowing the inhabitants a grassed-roof garden area. Financially speaking, this kind of home makes sense particularly for those on a quest for uber-contemporary living on a budget as a recent Grand Desig...

STI Direction
2008-05-30 07:24:00 Capitaland's strong rebound from oversold caught my eye. I be watching the falling window marked by red lines followed by the downtrend resistance line overhead. STI edges up cautiously. Currently MFI is pending a downtrend breakout. Money may start flowing into the market again. However i be watching the blue line resistance. If both STI and capland together with the rest of the market can break the downtrend line, it may be time to go long. However, they struggle at that level, i will initiate short positions. This is an example of ask not where the market is going but what you going to do when the market gets there. It is highly important to develop your thoughts about the market and trade accordingly. HSI is rebounding now, however, this is just a swing trade for me as there are overhead resistance nearby.DISCLAIMER: This is not an inducement to buy or sell. You should do your own analysis on top of my postings.

New Direction
2008-05-20 06:10:00 It's May and I realize that I have, again, neglected this blog for far too long. It's been over six months since I last posted anything. In that seemingly short amount of time I've finished student teaching, finished school, moved back to my hometown, found a great full-time job and gotten married. My life, as you may see is moving in a new direction; a more adult direction. For the most part this blog had been my place to post the interesting, strange and obscure, but my interest in that, although still there, seems to be waning, and I ask myself why. No answer occurs to me. Perhaps it has to do with the fact that I don't have hours during the day to simply sit at a computer and search. Then again, perhaps I am simply...heaven forbid...growing up. Both seem viable, but I much prefer the former. With that said, I (fingers crossed) recommit myself to this blog and to the vision which I initially had for it. However, in addition to this and when time permits, you may find me inser...

The Pit And The Pendulum - The Perils of Female Direction In Hollywood
2008-05-10 20:15:00 "The pendulum is swinging in the wrong direction. It is absolutely not a golden age." So claims Nancy Meyers, the most successful woman director in Hollywood, who has single-handedly proved that talent-driven romantic comedies have the capacity to do international blockbuster business -- i.e., that chick flicks have legs. If she's not happy, chances are it's not going to get any better the further you go down the food chain.From the mid-'90s onward, as independent film took its turn at the table, it seemed like a new generation of female directors was about to finally explode the old boys' network of Hollywood gender disparity. Enabled by female and female-friendly producers like Christine Vachon, Ted Hope, James Schamus, Albert Berger and Ron Yerxa plus a host of others, directors as diverse as Kimberly Peirce, Nicole Holofcener, Mary Harron, Sofia Coppola, Kasi Lemmons, Lisa Cholodenko, Lynne Ramsay, Antonia Bird, Adrienne Shelley and Sarah Polle...
