Wash U. Students Stick It to Mother's
2009-11-02 14:25:00 Photo: MorguefileI love code words, and one of my favorite code words for "no black people" is "dress code." I also love clubs and bars--where the unchallengeable goal of the establishment is to get its customers as drunk as possible, consequences be damned--that still have "dress codes." On October 17th six black students from the Washington University in St. Louis attempted to walk into the Gold Coast bar Original Mother's for a party that the class treasurer Regis Murayi, 21, had arranged three weeks earlier (you know, one of those wrist-bracelet jobbies where you're compelled to drink as much Bud Light as possible to make the $25 worth it?). They were denied entry under the "no baggy pants" (i.e....
How to flatter a working mother who’s been happily married to the same ma
2009-10-14 23:54:00 From time to time, men hit on me. Not a lot, but enough. How about that? I no longer repel. Either smiling more than scowling, losing all that baby weight, getting in shape, figuring out what to do with my hair and discovering clothes that fit actually makes a difference, or middle-aged guys are goddamn desperate. Going ...
Every mother's (and father's) nightmare...
2009-10-12 04:30:00 Having spent most of my life as a devoted KISS fan, I've long dealt with people who don't quite understand the KISS Army's passion for this band. And that's okay, of course -- not everyone wants, enjoys, or loves the same things in life. But after spending many years in my youth with my family "tolerating" (if not understanding) my KISS problem, there came a time when I reached a point where I wanted to try to get my family to understand, at least somewhat, what I see and feel as a KISS fan. One of my longtime friends had taken his (elderly!) parents to a show during the Reunion tour so that they could experience the band live, which...

An Open Letter to Steve Ballmer: Didn't Your Mother Teach You To Say "Thank
2009-10-07 17:58:00 Seriously, Mr. Ballmer, your lack of gratitude to your best friend in the Linux community is appalling. I am talking about Ken "Helios" (named after the Greek god of the sun) Starks, who has recently helped defeat your main competitor a little further this year. I know that Linux sometimes worries you, though you may laugh it off in public. This year, Mr. Starks pulled off a real coup. He collected money as donations from the Linux community, then paid big bucks to a radio station to run a scratchy, echoey, low-fi "radio commercial" for Linux. But hold on! Not just any radio program, but the commercial slot during Kim Komando's show - a long-time Microsoft advocate. So the ad dollars literally went into your pocket - straight from desktop Linux users all over the world! Isn't that sweet for you, Mr. Ballmer? But that's just the beginning. By collecting money, time, and resources out of the limited reserves of the Linux user base, Starks has ensured that funds which could have ...

Channel Surfing: HOUSE, HEROES, HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER & THE BIG BANG TH
2009-09-22 19:18:00 Call us crazy, but last night’s two-hour season premiere of HOUSE that had the good doctor (not to mention us viewers) stuck in Mayfield Psychiatric Hospital for what felt like an eternity alongside some very talented guest stars (including Franka Potente, Andre Braugher and Broadway’s Lin-Manuel Miranda) was an epic fail. Okay sure, Laurie now has the pre-requisite ‘Very Special Episode’ for next year’s Emmy reel already in the can. And yes, the show, which does tend to become somewhat repetitious did switch things up from the standard mystery illness of the week. But for our money, last night is not how you start off a season. Personal character journeys that leave supporting favorites such as Cuddy, Chase and Cameron in the wings should be reserved for mid-season or at the very least, sweeps episodes. Not a season opener where viewers have waited very patiently all summer long for the return of their favorite differential diagnosticians. While Rober...

Katey Sagal play one tough mother in 'Sons of Anarchy'
2009-09-08 17:26:00 Just give Katey Sagal an Emmy for playing Gemma in FX's "Sons of Anarchy." FX photos Grace Hanadarko in "Saving Grace." Mary Shannon of "In Plain Sight." Patty Hewes on "Damages." Cable TV may be filled with strong female characters, but I wouldn't put any of them up against Katey Sagal's Gemma Teller Morrow on "Sons of Anarchy." Gemma is one tough broad. "There's some soft and fuzzy, but not much," Sagal told me as she described the queen bee of the Sons of Anarchy motorcycle club, who shows what she's made of in the shocking season 2 premiere of the FX drama, airing at 9 p.m. Tuesday....

Chris Brown and his Mother

I'm sorry I wasn't allowed to speak to anyone as this case was ongoing. I can now say this has been the most painful moment in my entire life, but knowing that you were still standing by Chris side in his time of need made this a little easier for us... I made a promise to him I would never be ashamed of him no matter where I am or who I talk to. You see this whole thing isn't about Chris it's about God. He wants to show all of you the goodness of him through Chris. Chris will be addressing all of his fans very soon. We love you so much and so does God."I have to wonder how she thinks this will happen? From where I sit right now this poor woman is in denial, and she can't help him from that position.If he can come to a place of full repentance, and that means more...
Countdown to Fall: HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER
2009-08-19 20:00:00 I took four seasons (and arguably a little help from time-slot lead-in THE BIG BANG THEORY) but audiences (and best of all, the Emmy nominating committee) finally discovered what this TV Addict has known for years now: HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER = Awesome! What’s more, it’s about to get even awesomer (and yes, if Barney uses it, it is in fact a word!) “For a long time the mother was in this big vast ocean of New York City and we ended the season with Ted teaching at Columbia University,” teased executive producer Craig Thomas in a recent interview with EW’s Michael Ausiello. “Having Ted literally in the same room as the mother has added a great suspense element in the writing,” And speaking of suspense, what about the relationship fans have really been buzzing about all summer long, that of Robin and Barney, whose will-they-or-won’t-they status was left somewhat up the air after last spring’s finale. Well, judging from a third episode...

It gives me a new reason to blog....like a second life! hahaThe rebound due to the clarification of the tax rule did little to calm nerves in the market.

I favour downside more than upside from here. Dow was unable to trade back above 8250 and that is a weak sign to me. In the Ang mo charts, one can easily see weakness written all over. All these can reverse if there is a powerful rally that pierce the 20MA... otherwise, so long market is below it, i will stay short.Frustratingly, STI looked strong.. while many regional markets had fallen...i wonder why our market is keeping up the pretence... one can almost feel the invisible hands at work..

Single Mother Ordered to Pay RIAA $1.92M for File-Sharing 24 Songs

My Histrionic Mother
2009-04-14 19:30:00 My mother is batshit. Simple as that. However, I'm not so lucky as to have a mother that's obviously batshit crazy. No, my mother is a histrionic ass-kisser who is incapable of empathy and honesty. She's not quite a sociopath, but she's pretty damn close. I went out today, took the bike everyone uses that we keep in the garage. I had some fun finding an alternative for a bike lock, seeing as I couldn't find the one I normally use. Anyway, I got back, was completely exhausted and left the bike in the backyard to be put away later. My mother comes home, notices it, and comes upstairs to bitch at me about it. She never asked if I was done with it, if I was going to eventually put it away, she just came upstairs and started right off in 'fight mode'. Normally, I would shoot her down by telling her what was going on, she'd get infuriated and embarrassed, start screaming… blah blah blah. You get the idea. This time, I ignored her once she got...
Foster mother 'struck off' after Muslim girl converts
2009-04-06 17:44:00 A foster mother has been struck off by a council after a teenage Muslim girl in her care became a Christian. The carer, who has ten years? experience and has looked after more than 80 children, said she was ?devastated? by the decision.?This is my life,? she revealed. ?It is not just a job for me. It is a vocation. I love what I do. It is also my entire income. I am a single carer, so that is all I have to live on.?The foster mother said she had recently bought a larger car and had been renting a farmhouse, with a pony in a field, so that she could provide more disadvantaged children with a new life.?That was always my dream and then suddenly, bang, it was gone. I am now in a one-bedroom flat,? she added. The girl is understood to be back with members of her family, who have not been told of her conversion. A second girl the woman was fostering has been moved to another carer.The woman insisted that, although she was a Christian, she had put no pressure on the Muslim girl, who was 1...

Lessons Learned From Last Night’s HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER
2009-03-31 19:38:00 1. Not everything aboot about Canada is funny: Look, we’re the first recognize the genius that is Robin Sparkles, and really, who doesn’t love the occasional joke at Canada’s expense. But last night’s observation by Robin that the original inspiration for Lethal Weapon were the fictional Canadian duo of McElroy and LaFleur may have been the hat that broke the proverbial Mountie’s back. Because if you ask us, there is such a thing as one too many jokes at Canada’s expense. 2. It’s about the journey, stupid: Amidst the hilarity that was Barney doing shots in the bar with strangers, you may have missed show-runners Carter Bays and Craig Thomas’ clever use of Robin to voice their inner-monologue, when she waxed poetically to Ted that, “You can’t just jump to the end, the journey is the best part.” In other-words, stop asking about who the mother is. 3. Jason Segal’s dedication to his craft knows no bounds: Or at le...

6 More Childcare Beliefs Your Mother Was Wrong About
2009-03-06 01:12:00 Many of our age old beliefs about children's health have been shown to be untrue, but because we have heard them all of our lives, we continue to repeat these myths. Our children will benefit if we recognize these myths and don't pass them on to future generations. 1. No sugar. It makes you hyperactive. Sugar will not make your child hyperactive. What made your son bounce off the walls at the Halloween party then? Probably the party itself - with the added excitement and attention drawn by the child's acting out. Numerous studies have failed to find a relationship between sugar intake and hyperactivity. There are lots of good reasons for your child to cut back on sugar, but less sugar intake will not necessarily make your child calmer. 2. Stop slouching. You'll get scoliosis. Good posture will not prevent scoliosis. About 2 out of 100 children under the age of 16, (girls more than boys) are afflicted with scoliosis or curvature of the spine. In most cases, science provides no ...
