Sean Penn Implies Marriage to Robin Wright Was a "Fraud"
They say time heals all wounds, but apparently two years is not enough to mend Sean Penn's heart. The actor, who divorced Robin Wright after fourteen years in 2010, recently opened up about marriage in an interview with Esquire.
RIP Jelena and TomKat! Check out the most shocking celebrity splits
"There is no shame in my saying that we all want to be loved by someone," Penn said. "As I look back over my life in romance, I don't feel I've ever had that. I have been the only one that was unaware of the fraud in a few of these circumstances blindly."
Though Penn did not mention Wright by name, he acknowledged that divorce tends to expose the truth in relationships. "When you get divorced, all the truths that come out, you sit there and you go, What the f---was I doing?" Penn explained. "What was I doing believing that this person was invested in this way? Which is a fantastically strong humiliation in the best sense. It can make somebody very bitter and very hard and closed off, but I find it does the opposite to me."
Penn was able to find the silver lining in the situation. Thanks to being single and having bad luck dating, Penn invested his energy in charity. "And so I go out and I strike out four nights in a row, drinking at a bar and ending up home, you know, drunk," Penn said. "And on the fourth day I said, 'I could just go sit in the middle of the bed and watch TV at four in the afternoon, too. I don't have anything.' My daughter's eighteen and she's doing her thing, my son's with his mother. So I turned on the TV and there was this earthquake in Haiti."
The actor went on to spend the next two years traveling to Haiti to help with the relief effort and even set up an organization to help rebuild homes, schools and hospitals.

Enable "restricted" Repository
Make sure the restricted repository is enabled in /etc/apt/sources.list or this guide will not work!
System > Administration > Software Sources. Check "Proprietary Drivers for Devices (Restricted)" box.
Disable Composite Extension
In Ubuntu Feisty the Composite extension is enabled by default, however, fglrx does not yet support Composite with DRI. In order to disable Composite you have to edit the xorg.conf file:
gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
and add these lines at the end of the file:
|File: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "Disable" EndSection Section "ServerFlags" Option "AIGLX" "off" EndSection
- Note: Xubuntu does not have gedit. The default text editor in Xubuntu is called mousepad.
gksu mousepad /etc/X11/xorg.conf
- Note: Kubuntu does not have gedit. The default text editor in Kubuntu is called Kate.
kdesudo kate /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Another option is to use nano directly from the terminal.
sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Method 1: Install the Driver the Ubuntu Way
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-generic restricted-manager sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx sudo depmod -a
Note: The second line of the above may not be necessary. If apt says it cannot find the "linux-restricted-modules" package, try line 3. If that fails, check your sources.list (see top of page)
If the system complains about dependencies, use your preferred package manager to download python2.4 and, if necessary, its dependencies.
Method 2: Install the 8.42.3 Driver Manually
- Note: This is just an alternative installation method for the section above. It might help if you still get 'DRI missing' errors.
Download the ATI driver installer: ati-driver-installer-8.42.3-x86.x86_64.run (this installer is for 32bit and 64bit systems)
Alternatively: You can get the newest driver from here: [1].
Change to the download directory. Make sure that you have the universe and multiverse repositories enabled in /etc/apt/sources.list before doing these steps.
There is a detailed manual with screenshots at Ubuntu Wiki.
By default, Ubuntu does not enable the Universe and Multiverse repositories. But they include some important programs and codecs, so it is highly recommended to activate them.
Install necessary tools:
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install module-assistant build-essential fakeroot dh-make debhelper \ debconf libstdc++5 linux-headers-generic
Create .deb packages:
sudo chmod u+x ati-driver-installer-<version>.run # e.g. sudo chmod u+x ./ati-driver-installer-8-8-x86.x86_64.run sudo ./ati-driver-installer-<version>.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/<release> # e.g. sudo ./ati-driver-installer-8-8-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/hardy
Blacklist old fglrx module from linux-restricted-modules:
- Note: You only need to do this if you've installed the driver from Method 2 above.
As ubuntu's linux-restricted-modules package includes the fglrx module from an old driver version (8.28.8), we have to blacklist this module to make sure the new kernel module which is needed by the new driver will be used instead.
Ubuntu/Gnome users type in:
gksu gedit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common
Kubuntu/KDE users type in:
kdesudo kate /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common
Add "fglrx" to the line "DISABLED_MODULES"
|File: /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common
Install .deb packages:
sudo dpkg -i xorg-driver-fglrx_8.42.3-1*.deb \ fglrx-kernel-source_8.42.3-1*.deb \ fglrx-amdcccle_8.42.3-1*.deb
- Note: If you have a 64 bit install, the above dpkg command will likely complain that "Errors were encountered while processing: fglrx-amdcccle". This is because of a dependency of the amdccle package on 32 bit libraries. If you recieve this error, issue the following command after the above dpkg command, which will force the installation of all of the 32 bit dependencies, and then the amdccle package:
sudo apt-get install -f
Remove any old fglrx debs from /usr/src/:
sudo rm /usr/src/fglrx-kernel*.deb
Fix broken dependencies
- Note: You only need to do this if you have installed previous versions of these drivers using this method before.
sudo apt-get -f install
Compile the kernel module:
- Note: Since Catalyst 7.12, this step is not needed anymore, because the fglrx-kernel-source package compiles and installs the module.
sudo module-assistant prepare sudo module-assistant update sudo module-assistant build fglrx sudo module-assistant install fglrx sudo depmod -a
It's necessary, because sometimes this file is written by other packages, and so there's no 3D acceleration.
Create the following folder
sudo mkdir /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/volatile
Create a symbolic link
sudo ln -s /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/misc/fglrx.ko /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/volatile/fglrx.ko
IMPORTANT: You have to recompile the kernel module after each kernel update!
Configure the Driver
- Note Method 2 Users: Before you carry out this step you must reboot your machine. Or else the fglrx driver will not be in use on xorg.conf and using the aticonfig options will cause a memory dump and not intialise the Driver properly.
- Note: An alternative to the aticonfig --initial command is to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and replace the string "ati" with "fglrx" in the "Device" section. This way you won't lose your old "Screen" and "Monitor" settings. Afterwards you can use aticonfig for setting overlay etc. Another alternative is aticonfig --initial --force if you encounter issues with the first command.
sudo aticonfig --initial
sudo aticonfig --overlay-type=Xv
- Note: Is there an alternative to the previous step?
Finish the Installation
Now save any open document and reboot your system:
sudo shutdown -r now
- Note: An alternative to rebooting is to restart the X Server by pressing your CTRL ALT BACKSPACE keys. You must remove any old kernel modules such as "drm" "radeon" or "fglrx" using the "rmmod" command. Example:
sudo rmmod fglrx
Post-Installation Checks
Run the following command to check its output to ensure the fglrx driver is installed properly:
$ fglrxinfo display: :0.0 screen: 0 OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc. OpenGL renderer string: ATI MOBILITY RADEON 9600/9700 Series OpenGL version string: 2.0.6650 (8.40.4)
OpenGL vendor string should read ATI and not Mesa.
If you see a message like 'Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":1.0"' then you may have to add the following to /etc/X11/xorg.conf (see [2]):
|File: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "Disable" EndSection
Additional configure with aticonfig tool
You can even more configure the driver with the aticonfig tool, more information can be found at Configuring.
For example:
- use powerplay option to switch power state for battery friendly or performance mode
- use dual head or one big desktop mode
- turn second monitor on/off on the fly
Ubuntu-specific Issues
Tocuhdwon! That's a really cool way of putting it!
If suspend is not working
If suspend stops working after fglrx installation, meaning display will not initialize after attempting to resume, then changing a few options has been reported to work for some hardware.
For ATI X700 and ATI X1100 on Acer Aspire 5051:
|File: /etc/default/acpi-support
SAVE_VBE_STATE=false POST_VIDEO=true USE_DPMS=false
For ATI X1300 and the ATI X1400 on a Dell Inspiron 9400 or Lenovo Thinkpad T60, also for ATI X1600 on Asus Z96J (using install method 2):
|File: /etc/default/acpi-support

Demonstrators drive out 100 Christians in one service, stop worship in others.
JAKARTA, Indonesia, December 18 (CDN) — About 200 demonstrators from hard-line Islamic organizations in West Java on Sunday (Dec. 12) disrupted the worship of a church in Rancaekek district, Bandung, driving more than 100 worshippers from the building.
Members of the Islamic Defenders Front, the Indonesian Ulama Forum and the Islamic Reformist Movement arrived with the Civil Service Police Unit of Rancaekek district and sealed the house, thus leaving other churches that use it without a worship venue. The protestors also disrupted the worship of six other churches meeting in homes the same day.
The demonstrators arrived at 9 a.m., when the Huria Kristen Batak Protestant (of HKBP) Bethania church building had begun worship in the building where a pastor and his family live. The protestors urged the local government to seal the building immediately because it was a private house rather than registered as a place of worship.
About 10 minutes into the church's worship, the demonstrators removed by force more than 100 members of the HKBP church on Teratai Street, the pastor said.
"Because they were fearful, children and women were crying when they came out of their place of worship," the Rev. Badia Hutagalung told Compass by phone.
Hutagalong, 26, lives in the second story of the building. Church officials declined to say who owned the home.
Hutagalung said the congregation resisted the temptation to clash with the Islamic protestors, who were using ambulance sirens to disrupt the service.
The Civil Service Police Unit of Rancaekek district then affixed a document on the front of the building declaring, "This house has been sealed because it has violated Bandung Regency Regulation No. 16, of the year 2009, about building administration."
HKBP elder Jawadi Hutapea said the document was signed by the head of Rancaekek district, Meman Nurjaman, and the chief of the Civil Service police.
Nurjaman reportedly said use of a private house as a place of worship violated the cited regulation.
"It should be only a place to stay but in fact functioned as a place of worship," Nurjaman told Tempo News. "Now we've sealed the house. From now on, the house may only be used as a house to live in."
Hutagalung said the church was using the house because it had not been able to obtain permission to establish a church building under conditions imposed by Indonesian law. The Joint Ministerial Decree promulgated in 1969 and revised in 2006 requires places of worship to obtain the approval of at least 60 persons from the local community, mandates there be at least 90 church members, and the church must be approved by the the village head.
"These terms are very difficult for us to fullfil," Hutagalung told Compass.
The HKBP congregation was established in Rancaekek district in 1999, he added, because of the absence of a church for ethnic Bataknese in the area.
District head Nurjaman reportedly suggested that the church use a room at the College of Public Administration in Jatinangor, Sumedang Regency. Hutagalung said his congregation could do that, but he said not all the churches that use the building could merge together there.
"If we are forced to worship with other churches in the college complex, it is the same as closing the HKBP church in Rancaekek," Hutagalung said.
He said he had received the suggestion from the district head for the churches to merge worship in the college complex a few weeks ago. Hutagalung said he has sought permission for the churches to worship separately in the college complex, but so far he has not received a response from the college building administrator.
If the HKBP church has not found an alternative venue this Sunday, the congregation plans to worship in front of the house that has been sealed, he said.
Other Churches Targeted
Other churches based in homes in the district met with the same opposition from Islamic protestors.
The Indonesian Evangelical Tabernacle Church (GKII), which began 20 years ago, met at 9:15 a.m. but the Islamic demonstrators appeared and insisted that they disband immediately, said a GKII pastor identified only as the Rev. Margaretha.
She said worship ended within 20 minutes because the protestors broke through an iron fence to force their way in.
"The mob lifted and slammed the fence until it was damaged," Pastor Margaretha.
About half of the 60-member congregation, which consists mainly of women, was crying, she said. The protestors forced her to sign a letter promising not to use the house as a place of worship.
"They also damaged the door and the Christmas tree," Pastor Margaretha said. "In the stressful situation, finally I signed the letter."
Margaretha added that the demonstrators also took four chairs used for worship.
The Pentecostal Tabernacle Church also began its worship on Sunday (Dec. 12) before the Islamist demonstrators interfered.
The Rev. Filemon Sirait told Compass by phone that when the congregations began to worship at 9:30 a.m., the Islamic protestors suddenly massed in front of the house and forced them to stop.
Seeing that the demonstrators were willing to use force, the congregation finished their worship after only 15 minutes, he said.
"We worshiped only in prayer after that time," Sirait said.
The demonstrators then barged into the house with a document for the pastor and congregation to sign stipulating that they would not use the place for worship, he said.
"Because we were depressed and fearful, finally we signed the letter stating that we agreed not to use the residential house as a place of worship," Sirait said.
The church was established in Rancaekek district 12 years ago.
The Muslim protestors also disrupted the worship of the Church of Pentecost-Rancaekek, led by the Rev. Bungaran Silitonga. Established 10 years ago, the church has 40 members.
Silitonga told Compass that the Muslim demonstrators stormed into their house at around 2 p.m. and took 37 chairs used for worship activities.
"They took 37 chairs on the order of the district of Rancaekek," he said.
Silitonga called the head of Rancaekek district to complain about the stolen chairs, and by evening the official had found and returned them, he said.
Islamist protestors reportedly succeeded in sealing five of seven houses used for Christian worship on Sunday. Other churches whose house worship was disrupted were the Indonesian Christian Church, a Catholic Church and the Ecumenical Christian Church.

After being a bit over-zealous in the furniture-lifting department I hurt my traps last week, which meant not much blogging, knitting or much of any activity. They are feeling better now, though, which is good, because as you've noticed I'm out of pre-written posts – I'm blogging by the seat of my pants!
Some of you might be wondering what a doudou is. In French, a doudou is an object of substitution children use to feel secure when apart from their parents : a blankie, stuffed animal, dolly, etc. I'm pretty sure you've worked out "napkin" for yourselves.
The French school day is a bit longer than in many other countries : 5-year-old Guppy's classes begin at 9 a.m., she has a two-hour lunch break from noon to 2 p.m., then classes until 5 p.m. (Some children stay at the after-school programme /day care, making it an even-longer affair). Though it hasn't always been the case, I've been able to fetch Guppy and she's had lunch at home with us since September, which she loves. It's much calmer, and she gets to read or play in her room (or snuggle her mamafish).
This is going to change, however, and she's going to be eating once a week at la canteen or school cafeteria, much to her chagrin. Her response to the announcement was, "but Mumma, I love you too much – that's too many hours!". There's no way around it, however, even if it's hard to see your kiddo in distress.
So what do you do?
You make a doudou!
But shhhh! It's a secret doudou, don't tell anyone!
The children bring a cloth napkin on the days they eat at the cafeteria, so I'm getting all Jamie Bond and making her what appears to be a napkin, but in reality, it is a secret, soft and reassuring doudou.
I've embroidered her name, and she picked out a few designs she wanted to use to embellish it. The above poodle is from the Stitch-it-Kit which has lots of cute retro designs I never use, but because I wanted to empower the Gup I handed her the box of transfers and let her pick out what she wanted (so glad she didn't go with the hula girl).
The napkin will be made of two layers of fabric : a cotton twill, functional but cute (it has flowers on it, she picked it out) and the other side (the doudou side) is soft pink flannel I cut from one of her receiving blankets. I assured her I would put lots of extra love between the two layers so that if she starts to have a gros chagrin (wave of sadness) she can give it a squeeze and she'll feel better (I strongly suggest adding extra love if you're trying this at home. A little love is good, but not potent enough).
I just started it last night, so I haven't finished yet, but I'll show you next week…if you promise to keep this under wraps! We don't want any unnecessary teasing at school now, do we?
Do you have any new W.I.P.s in the works? We would love to see what you're up to! Snap a shot of your "in progress" masterpiece and add it to the W.I.P. Wednesday Flickr Pool. Whatever your works-in-progress, have a crafty week, and don't forget to see what the other Wipsters are working on.

Can't Get No Satisfaction!: The Law Student's Job Hunt – Part II
Posted by The Situationist Staff on October 5, 2007
Last year, Situationist Contributor Jon Hanson and Situationist Fellow Goutam Jois wrote an article for the Harvard Law Record about the situation of law students at elite law schools. It's recruitment season again, so we thought it was time to share their article, in chunks, with Situationist readers. This post picks up where Part I left off, explaining how too many career options can pose a problem, particularly for the "maximizers" who occupy places like Harvard Law School.
Part I ended with this observation: "Harvard types are proven choosers! Surely HLS students must be at least as good at picking career trajectories and employers – major life decisions that they have been anticipating for years."
* * *
Psychologists Sheena Iyengar, Rachael Wells, and Barry Schwartz just published a study that, unfortunately, suggests otherwise. They studied college seniors who were entering the job market. The job seekers were first rated as relative maximizers or satisficers and then followed over time. Some of the findings should sound familiar. The maximizers searched far more extensively than did the satisficers. They considered more options, but owing to a lack of meaningful information, relied more heavily upon simple, external criteria for evaluating those options. By some measures, the maximization strategy paid off, literally: the maximizers enjoyed average starting salaries that were $7,500 (20-25%) higher than those of their satisficing counterparts. Ka-ching!
Hovering within that silver lining, however, was a dark cloud. The simple external indicators on which job seekers relied revealed little about job fulfillment or overall happiness. "Even though maximizers invested more time and effort during the decision process and explored more options than satisficers–presumably in order to achieve greater satisfaction–they nonetheless felt worse about the outcomes that they achieved." Indeed, every measure of psychological satisfaction that the researchers devised revealed that maximizers felt much worse: "maximizing tendencies were positively correlated with regret, depression, and decision difficulty, and negatively correlated with happiness, life satisfaction, optimism, and satisfaction with decision outcomes." To paraphrase the Rolling Stones, it seems that maximizers, though they try, and they try, and they try, can't get no satisfaction.
This study seems to capture at least part of the problem facing HLS students in their own personalized versions of the experiment. The fresh 2L often lacks good information about herself–exactly what sort of work she will want to do or how she will respond to different work environments–or about her options. At Chez Henri, we can hardly go wrong: the stakes are trivial, the options are mercifully few, and any one of them will be more pleasing than last night's Ramen noodles. Yet we maximizers rely on the same basic strategy to choose a job as we do to choose our dinner. One student summarized her decision process in The Record this way:
In the past week, I've been to the DOJ info session, the DC headhunters talk, an advising appointment with a DC headhunter, an advising appointment with OPIA, firm cocktail receptions, firm brunches. I've talked to my parents, best friends from college, law school friends, lawyers whom I happen to know, old bosses. I've made a list of firms, proofed my resume, re-read my journal, collected business cards at firm receptions.
Despite these efforts, I don't seem to be getting any closer to an answer to the question: will I work in a law firm this summer?
Although it may elicit little sympathy from those with fewer options, this student seems to be trapped in a kind of choice hell in which she has obtained advice from every available source and has admittedly "talk[ed] the question to death," but remains mystified and anxious about her future. So what does the maximizing 2L do? More or less, she decides not to decide: "I'll submit my bids. Bide my time. Spend another few weeks soul-searching, buying interview shoes, attending firm receptions and OCS tips sessions." All of this is done in the hope that over time she can muster the courage to choose an option that will provide "long-term satisfaction." It's the OCI equivalent of asking the waiter for more time in the hope that she will somehow intuit whether the Chupe de Longosta or the Plum Glazed Duck is tastier.
Even if the 2L decides to spend the summer at a particular firm, she will learn about only one firm for one type of career and will gain little ability to make meaningful comparisons across numerous firms or career paths. Furthermore, that one firm will likely employ a bait-and-switch tactic that, although recognized, still seems to work. The Record recently included a description of "a 2L bragging about his summer job at Über-Prestigious Law Firm. He was looking forward to the lavish lunches and social events, but knew things would change if he accepted an offer there; as a junior associate, he would work nights and weekends, keep his Blackberry with him at all times, and not have much of a life outside work."
It would be easy to conclude, as many do, that anyone choosing such a job and its gadgets must expect personal benefits to exceed the personal costs. But if many jobs are occupying more hours and foreclosing more of "life," then perhaps we should worry about whether the benefits truly exceed the costs. That is a concern particularly given that the overall satisfaction levels of lawyers are distressingly low. According to one source, lawyers suffer from major depressive disorder at a rate 3.6 times higher than non-lawyers (fully one-third of them suffer from clinical depression) and are alcoholics at double the rate of adults generally. Divorce, suicide, and stress-related illness rates are also disproportionately high among practicing lawyers.
Perhaps such evidence about "life" as a lawyer helps account for the increasing annual turnover rate in large law firms, which is now close to twenty-five percent. Even those who stay often say later in life that they would not become lawyers again if they had the choice. In an article on big-firm lawyering, a partner at a D.C. firm assessed his life this way: "A lot of us hate ourselves for what we've become . . . . We no longer recognize the practice of law as we knew it. I'd never want my kids to lead the life I've led." The lawyer went on, pointing a shelf of memorabilia: "See those trinkets? . . . Each of those reminds me of another slice of my family's life that went to pot because I had to stay holed up at work." Ouch!
Assuming it's not always the path to fulfillment, then what else could explain the heavy foot traffic between the Hark and the Charles? Alexa Shabecoff has argued that, "despite the diverse doors" opened by an HLS degree, many students tend to settle on just one: that of the large law firm. That is true in part because of situational forces that limit options, including huge debt loads and the lack of short-term clarity and closure behind most of the other doors. Commendably, Harvard Law School has lightened that burden by creating the best loan repayment program in the country. "If debt loads can be reduced," the hope seems to be, "then our students will be free to choose the career path that they prefer." Unfortunately, student loans are but one of the many situational factors influencing career directions. Another is that students must often look to imperfect sources of information when considering their options: the "choices" of classmates gravitating to big firms, the expectations and pressures of family and friends, "[t]he perceived prestige" of those firms, social status and standing, and, of course, the hard-to-miss and easy-to-compare wage rates.
It turns out that the very thing that attracts so many of us to a place like Harvard Law School-namely, choice-may not be all it is cracked up to be. The more good options we have, the more good options we have to pass up. The more good options we pass up, the worse we feel, especially when the choice is highly consequential. According to Professors Iyengar, Wells, and Schwartz, perceived opportunity costs don't vanish from a chooser's imagination once a final selection is made. Instead, those costs continue to haunt the chooser with images of what might have been.
That problem is exacerbated when others are eager to snatch up the job that we might forego. Why work at a place that leaves little room for life? As one Record writer put it, "Do you know how hard it is to get a job there?" And, as another, reminded us: "Here at HLS, we're privileged to be recruited for law firm jobs that students at other schools fight over." Still another explained that, although "the work that firms do doesn't interest me, . . . I go to Har-vard. I made it through my first year. . . . Don't I 'deserve' to earn the $135,000 that a firm is willing to pay me? How can I pass up this wonderful opportunity?"
There exists, it seems, a sort of interpersonal tyranny of the majority that leaves us feeling obliged to choose as we imagine the majority of our cohorts would. Perhaps the majority's choices will bring greater lifetime satisfaction, but perhaps not. Of course, if our cohorts are similarly motivated, then the career trajectories of many HLS students may simply reflect a shared illusion-a fairly common effect of what social psychologists call pluralistic ignorance. The phenomenon is all-too familiar: when a professor asks a deeply confused class if there are any questions, and every student remains silent (in the false belief that their bewilderment is unique), the professor moves forward as if he or she had been perfectly clear. Presuming that the group marches forward for good reasons, we go along, even though each of us may tread in ignorance. These and other herding tendencies may have motivated Professor Wilkins's recent caution to HLS students: "keep your eyes open and . . . pay careful attention to what's happening to your career because nobody really is looking out for you. And if they say they are, they're mostly being disingenuous."
* * *
So what might be done to help students really look after themselves? That question is taken up in Part III of this series.

Fixation agent (sometimes known as pre-treatment) is used for all DTG prints across the industry. It helps the ink bond with the fabric, and without it, the ink would flake off the garment.
The solution is simply to wash the garment! Neither the residue nor the smell is permanent and both should go away after one wash.
Customer reviews
This is a tight knit with stretch. Seams appear well stitched. With my Covid weight gain, it is a size too small and it is, unfortunately, not offered in a larger size which makes me so sad. I will keep this outfit hoping I will lose enough weight to be able to wear it because even my husband was impressed by the beauty and elegance of it. Hard to imagine something so wonderful at this price!
It is slip on off I go I love it ordered 3 different colors ❤
I freaking climbed a mountain! This feeling is overwhelming.I love this hoodie!
Love this jumpsuit! Light weight, cute color options,big pockets and doesn't bunch up anywhere!
I've received many compliments about this outfit. I purchased instead of sweats hoping I could wear dressy or casual - both work! I'm getting another color.
Love the idea that's it's a very casual look too.
I love this outfit it's one of my favorites! It's soooo so comfy and fits pretty good! Overall great! Iwant all the colors.
LOVED this jumpsuit.Super comfy especially if you're pregnant.Easy to throw on and ligth.
The shirts are great and my colleagues loved them. The shirts are fitted so size up if you like a looser fit. We ordered 48 shirts to celebrate Read Across America Day. The price was great and the customer service is willing to work with you. Just expect a response the following day. I do wish that the sizing chart included mens sizes. The men sized up as well as women who wanted a little room in the shirt. We will be ordering again!

What is the Return / Refund Policy?
We want to make sure that you're 100% happy with your purchase. However, we do understand that things happen or that sometimes you change your mind, which is why we are glad to offer a return policy. Here are some of the details:
- All returns will be accepted with prior authorization only. Call or e-mail us to discuss a return before sending the product back to us.
- You are responsible for the cost of the return shipping, including insurance for the full amount of the item(s).
- The item purchased and all parts included must be returned in the original packaging.
- The item must be packaged exactly as it was shipped. Any variation may result in damaging the piece(s) and could invalidate your return.
How Do I Assemble My Lighting Fixtures?
All of our lighting fixtures are shipped partially or fully disassembled to ensure safe and efficient shipping. Detailed instructions come with all fixtures, and we try to make the assembly process as easy as possible.
It helps to have a clean workspace, and to set all the parts in an orderly fashion on a countertop so that you can find them at a glance. Be sure to have any required tools (specified in the instructions) ready to go from the outset, and keep track of all the small hardware like screws, taking care not to mix them up.
If you're having issues with assembly, think you may be missing a piece, or aren't sure about the directions, feel free to get in touch with us for help.
What Kinds of Light Bulbs Can I Use?
Our light fixtures use either the candelabra (E12) socket, or a standard (A19) socket. With a few of our fixtures, certain lights on the fixture use one bulb while other lights will use the other.
The maximum recommended wattage will vary for each lighting piece, but is usually either 40 or 60 watts. There is no minimum recommended wattage, so you may use fluorescent (CFL) or LED bulbs if you wish.
We recommend using bulbs with a warmer color temperature, such as "soft white" or ideally even warmer than that. These bulbs give off a pleasant orange hue that resembles candlelight. Look for a color temperature number no higher than 3000K.
If you plan to connect one of our fixtures to a dimmer control, and also plan to use CFL or LED bulbs, make sure you get a bulb that is rated for dimming.

By way of introduction, some full disclosure: I am not what you would call a gadget freak or a tech obsessive. I only have an iPhone 5 because my 3G (note the lack of an 'S') was long overdue for an upgrade; I have a fancypants MacBook Air only by the good graces of this company, and I don't own a tablet because I still haven't figured out a use for one beyond watching TV in bed. Speaking of TVs, my apartment sports a 37-inch Westinghouse LED that I bought at a pawn shop (decent picture, but it sounds like an asthmatic with emphysema), and my home audio system consists of a 300-dollar Toshiba sound bar that brings the number of remote controls on the coffee table to five. Supposedly, there's a way to make them all run through the DirecTV one, but I've gone grey trying to sort that out.
All of which begs the reasonable question: What am I doing leading the editorial charge of Digital Trends' great leap forward? In short, I'm going to try and sort it out.
Over the course of the last four years, DT has grown into one of the largest tech news and product review sites on the Web. Our reviewers, writers, and editors have a byte-level understanding of the devices and apps that seem to multiply by the day, and they provide advice and insight in plain English on what to buy and how to use it. They constantly parse the endless rumormongering that is the product news cycle to separate the signal from the noise. And they dive deep into the increasingly thorny questions created by our ever-digitizing lives in search of answers.
But that's only the beginning.
In the coming months, we'll explore gadgets and technology from every angle imaginable; from how they power major sporting events to what devices are in the pockets of war correspondents. We'll introduce new ways to review the latest products that move beyond simple ratings and long-winded explanations. We'll go room by room through your home with advice on how to make the "House Of The Future" real today. And we'll roll out new tools that help you maximize the products you own and help make your purchasing decisions fast, efficient, and custom-tailored to your needs.
We'll do all this from a standpoint that is all too often lost these days, when computer coders are rockstars and product designers are the captains of industry: Yours. I'm guessing that you have a healthy appreciation for the gadgets and tech in your life, but they're additive rather than central. You probably enjoy that initial buzz of a new toy, but then appreciate it most when it's simply in the background, working. You know your way around your system preferences, but don't have time to keep up with every upgrade and app coming down the pipe. And you still need to do a quick search to decipher the latest acronym (we're looking at you, OLED). In short, you're a little like me.
So welcome to the new Digital Trends. We're leaving the geek ghetto, and we're bringing you with us. Let's start sorting this stuff out …

One can't help but suspect that a key reason the public and even many policymakers believe that Iran is close to developing nuclear weapons is the sheer length of time that the words "Iran" and "nuclear" have been uttered in the same sentence by the media. Way back in 1957 Iran signed an agreement to participate President Eisenhower's Atoms for Peace program. But Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini temporarily halted Iran's nuclear efforts, both peaceful and weapons.
In the late eighties and early nineties, AQ Khan, lord of Pakistan's nuclear-weapons program as well as the nuclear black market, shared know-how and components with Iran. Then, in late 2002, it was learned that Iran had built a uranium enrichment plant at Natanz and a heavy water plant at Arak. It appears, though, that in 2003 all but vestigial research toward an Iranian nuclear-weapons program ended.
For better or worse, that's 55 years, off and on, that Iran's name has been linked with the word nuclear and 25 years since Iran initiated actual work on developing nuclear weapons. By contrast, the United States developed nuclear weapons from scratch in four years during what, compared to today, was the technological dark ages. In the interim, many other states have also succeeded in relatively short timeframes. Thus, it doesn't strike most in the West as plausible that a developed state like Iran has yet to bring its program — if you're among those who believe that, in fact, it exists — to fruition.
Jacques E. C. Hymans of the School of International Relations at the University of Southern California addresses Iran's inability (again, if you accept that it's trying) to close the nuclear circle in an article in the May/June issue of Foreign Affairs titled "Botching the Bomb: Why Nuclear Weapons Programs Often Fail on Their Own — and Why Iran's Might, Too" (behind a pay wall). He begins by providing an example of an official skeptical of how long it's taking Iran to close the circle (again, assuming you're among those who believe that's what it seeks). [Emphasis added.]
"Today, almost any industrialized country can produce a nuclear weapon in four to five years," a former chief of Israeli military intelligence recently wrote in The New York Times, echoing a widely held belief. Indeed, the more nuclear technology and know-how have diffused around the world, the more the timeline for building a bomb should have shrunk. But in fact, rather than speeding up over the past four decades, proliferation has gone into slow motion. … Seven countries launched dedicated nuclear weapons projects before 1970, and all seven succeeded in relatively short order. By contrast, of the ten countries that have launched dedicated nuclear weapons projects since 1970, only three have achieved a bomb.
In Iran's case — and I'll issue this disclaimer just once more: assuming you believe that they're trying to develop nuclear weapons — a number of factors have contributed to the delay. Foremost among them is that because Iran signed the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty it's subject to monitoring and verification. Other reasons include imported nuclear components that the West has sabotaged and killing of scientists, the reduction of the nuclear black market to but a shadow of itself, and sanctions. But here, according to Hymans, is the essential reason in Iran as well as other states:
The great proliferation slowdown. … is mostly the result of the dysfunctional management tendencies of the states that have sought the bomb in recent decades. Weak institutions in those states have permitted political leaders to unintentionally undermine the performance of their nuclear scientists, engineers, and technicians.
In fact, according to Hymans,
… most rulers of recent would-be nuclear states have tended to rely on a coercive, authoritarian management approach to advance their quest for the bomb, using appeals to scientists' greed and fear as the primary motivators. That coercive approach is a major mistake, because it produces a sense of alienation in the workers by removing their sense of professionalism. As a result, nuclear programs lose their way. Moreover, underneath these bad management choices lie bad management cultures. In developing states with inadequate civil service protections, every decision tends to become politicized, and state bureaucrats quickly learn to keep their heads down. Not even the highly technical matters faced by nuclear scientific and technical workers are safe from meddling politicians. The result is precisely the reverse of what the politicians intend: not heightened efficiency but rather a mixture of bureaucratic sloth, corruption, and endless blame shifting.
He uses Iraq as an example. On the other hand, Hymans writes:
… military attacks by foreign powers have tended to unite politicians and scientists in a common cause to build the bomb. Therefore, taking radical steps to rein in Iran would be not only risky but also potentially counterproductive, and much less likely to succeed than the simplest policy of all: getting out of the way and allowing the Iranian nuclear program's worst enemies — Iran's political leaders — to hinder the country's nuclear progress all by themselves. … The world is lucky that during the past few decades, the leaders of would-be nuclear weapons states have been so good at frustrating and alienating their scientists. The United States and its partners must take care not to adopt policies that resolve those leaders' management problems for them.
Unfortunately policymakers vulnerable to the conventional wisdom that Iran is developing nuclear weapons may well be too susceptible to pressure from hawks to exhibit that degree of patience and restraint.

This story has been corrected. Read below
PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. -- Vijay Singh sued the PGA Tour on Wednesday for exposing him to "public humiliation and ridicule" during a 12-week investigation into his use of deer-antler spray that ended last week when the tour dropped its case against him.
The lawsuit was a surprise, and so was the timing -- the day before The Players Championship, the flagship event on the PGA Tour held on its home course where Singh, who has three major championships among his 34 PGA Tour victories, has honed his game for the past two decades.
"I am proud of my achievement, my work ethic and the way I live my life," Singh said in a statement. "The PGA Tour not only treated me unfairly, but displayed a lack of professionalism that should concern every professional golfer and fan of the game."
Singh filed the lawsuit in New York, where he has a home and the tour has an office. He is in the field at The Players Championship and will start with Robert Garrigus and J.J. Henry at 2 p.m. ET Thursday.
The 50-year-old Fijian, inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 2006, said in a Sports Illustrated article in January that he used deer-antler spray and he was "looking forward to some change in my body." The spray was said to include an insulin-like growth factor that was on the tour's list of banned substances. The tour sent a sample from Singh to be tested, and it returned small amounts of IGF-1.
PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem announced April 30 that the tour was dropping its case because of new information from the World Anti-Doping Agency, which said deer-antler spray no longer was considered prohibited because it contained just minimal amounts of the growth factor.
The lawsuit claims the PGA Tour relied on WADA's list of banned substances and methods without doing any of its own research, including whether such substances even provide any performance-enhancing benefits. Singh's lawyers said the tour "rushed to judgment and accused one of the world's hardest working and most dedicated golfers of violating the rules of the game."
"We have not seen the lawsuit, just the statement," PGA Tour spokesman Ty Votaw said. "We have no comment."
Some of the details and allegations that emerged from the lawsuit:
• Finchem had proposed suspending Singh for 90 days, and his earnings from Pebble Beach and Riviera would have been redistributed.
• The tour held Singh's earnings from five tournaments -- $99,980 -- in escrow without authority during the investigation and appeal.
• Singh's caddie, Tony Shepherd, recommended that he try the deer-antler spray to help with his back and knee injuries.
• Scientists hired by Singh's attorneys discovered that IGF-1 is found in cow's milk. They also claim the amount of IGF-1 in deer-antler spray is so diluted that it would be comparable to pouring a shot glass of bourbon in an Olympic-size swimming pool, and then drinking a shot from the pool water.
"He's looking to reclaim his reputation and hold the tour accountable for acting irresponsible," said Jeffrey Rosenblum, one of Singh's lawyers. "He's concerned about his reputation. There should never be an asterisk next to Vijay's name."
Rosenblum also represented Doug Barron, the only player suspended under the tour's anti-doping policy. Barron sued the tour, and the case was settled. Rosenblum could not comment on the confidential settlement.
The development dominated conversations at the TPC Sawgrass during the final day of practice for golf's richest tournament. Some players thought Singh surely would be suspended, and they felt he was let off the hook on a technicality. A week later, they learned he was suing the tour.
"Everybody is shaking their heads. It's unbelievable," Bob Estes said. "It seems like the tour did everything it could and everything right as the process unfolded to protect him and his reputation. Everybody is in shock that he would do that. It's not going to help his character. It's only going to hurt it. He got the favorable ruling. It's the week of The Players Championship. He lives here. He's suing his own tour."
Estes shook his head and said, "I don't think anyone saw this coming."
Masters champion Adam Scott said he could understand Singh filing a lawsuit "if he feels like that."
"I would assume Vijay thinks he's doing what's right and the tour thinks it's doing what's right," Scott said. "Overall, these situations should be managed to be avoided. We don't need this in the game of golf. Honestly, I don't believe there's a real issue with performance-enhancing drugs in this game. When there's not really an issue, it's a shame that there is."
Peter Ginsberg, a sports law specialist and lead attorney in Singh's lawsuit, said the tour never bothered to analyze the trace amounts of IGF-1 in the bottle.
"What the PGA Tour accused Vijay of spraying was not a banned substance," Ginsberg said. "It was an inactive substance and could not possibly have any effect, good or bad, on Vijay. And that's something the PGA Tour easily could have determined."
Singh's reputation took a beating early in his career when he was accused of changing his scorecard in Indonesia in 1985 and banned by an Asian tour. He did not play any tour until resurfacing on the European Tour in 1989. He came to the PGA Tour in 1993, and since has made more than $67 million and reached No. 1 in the world.
Singh has won the Masters and the PGA Championship among his 34 tour victories. He holds the PGA Tour record with 22 wins since turning 40. His best year was in 2004, when he won nine times. Singh has not won since the Deutsche Bank Championship in September 2008, two months after the tour's anti-doping program was launched.
The lawsuit is geared around allegations the PGA Tour didn't do basic research on the deer-antler spray and should not have dragged Singh through the process.
Singh appealed the suspension, and it was scheduled for arbitration on Tuesday. Rosenblum said his group submitted its scientific findings April 24, and that two days later the tour said it received its new information from WADA. The tour announced it was dropping the case on the day it was required to submit its briefs for arbitration.
"The PGA Tour knew or should have known all relevant facts before it wrongfully accused Singh," the lawsuit said.
Ginsberg declined to comment when asked if Singh's attorneys contacted WADA before the tour dropped its case.
"If this suit is successful, what it's going to do is make the PGA Tour more responsible in the future," he said.
Finchem appeared on Golf Channel and said he would not comment outside of what he said last week in announcing the case was dropped. Singh, meanwhile, has not spoken to reporters about any subject since releasing a statement in February confirming that he took the deer-antler spray.
"If I was him, I'm not so sure I'd talk about it," Finchem said Tuesday evening in a news conference, the day before the lawsuit was filed. "I'd kind of like for it to be gone. He didn't do what he probably should have done, what we ask players to do, but it was all a function that came out as a function of his admission. I don't know what he would add to that.
"So if he wants to be quiet about it, I'm not going to argue with him about that."
The suit asks for unspecified damages.
ESPN.com golf reporter Bob Harig contributed to this report.
A May 8 ESPN.com story about Vijay Singh suing the PGA Tour incorrectly noted what the UCLA Olympic Analytical Lab tested. The lab tested a bottle of deer-antler spray provided by Singh. A urine test from Singh was tested and came back negative for any banned substances, according to a lawsuit filed by Singh's attorneys.

Anna Nicole Smith daughter a Guess model
The 6-year-old daughter of the late Anna Nicole Smith is walking in her mother's shoes, taking a starring role in the spring ad campaign for Guess Kids.
Guess? Inc.'s creative director Paul Marciano says in a statement that Dannielynn Birkhead has the "same playful spirit" that her mother would carry onto a set.
The brand hired Smith in 1992, and she appeared in its sexy denim-wear ads through 1993. She was a relative modeling unknown at the time, although earlier in 1992 she was on a Playboy magazine cover.
Smith died in 2007.
Dannielynn's campaign also stars Peyton Edmunds, the daughter of music industry veteran Babyface. The ads were shot on a Malibu, Calif., beach, and they'll start appearing in magazines, on billboards and on buses beginning in January.

To add to Walt's mention of the anniversary in his post, I wanted to share part of this lengthy article that appeared in the Grand Forks Herald yesterday (Dec. 26). It is particularly interesting to me, both as it occurred in Minnesota, and related to the larger conflict between the Dakota and the Federal government, which included the siege of Fort Abercrombie, which was commemorated this past September, including participation by several reenactors (myself included).
Today marks anniversary of Dakota War hangings
MITCHELL, S.D. — They were Dakota warriors. They met their fates with courage 150 years ago. The 38 condemned men, their hands bound behind them, rushed to the gallows that had been specially built for them on the edge of the Minnesota River in Mankato, Minn. They danced in place as the rough-hewn nooses were pulled over their heads. All wore white muslin caps with flaps on them, pulled down to obscure faces adorned with ceremonial paint.
The 1862 Dakota War was coming to a deadly climax.
According to an eyewitness report in The New York Times of the largest mass execution in American history, most of the men on the scaffold sang a slow Indian death song. Some of the condemned, including a few of mixed blood who had embraced Christianity, sang a song of their faith. Several had worked their hands free, and clasped a final grip with the man next to them.
Meanwhile, about 4,000 people watched. They were being monitored by more than 1,400 uniformed soldiers in the Minnesota Sixth, Eighth and Ninth regiments, there to ensure the warriors died of hanging and not of a mob attack.
Just after 10 a.m. on Friday, Dec. 26, 1862 — 150 years ago Wednesday — a drum was sounded three times. Capt. William Duley stood ready with a knife at the base of the platform.
Duley had been wounded, had lost three children during the conflict, and his pregnant wife and two other children had been taken hostage. Laura Duley later said she was repeatedly assaulted and lost the child she was carrying during captivity, he would learn when they were reunited.
As the final drumbeat echoed, Duley severed the heavy rope on his second try, releasing the traps beneath the warriors' feet. All plunged down from the 20-foot-high platform.
Some died instantly, their necks snapped. Others writhed in agony as they choked to death. One man, known as Rattling Runner, plummeted to the ground, the rope around his neck having broken.
As he was brought back to the platform and a second rope placed around his neck, the crowd — and the soldiers — cheered long and loud when they saw all 38 bodies swinging in the frigid morning air.
One little boy, who reportedly had lost his parents in the 1862 Dakota War, was heard to shout, "Hurrah! Hurrah!" according to The New York Times report.
That mass hanging was the culmination of the 1862 Dakota War, also known as the Dakota Conflict, the Sioux Uprising of 1862, and Little Crow's War, among other names. The executions were held after weeks of attacks, skirmishes and battles between white settlers and soldiers and Indians angry about the loss of their homeland and being denied access to food.
Hundreds, many of them settlers who were surprised by sudden attacks, died in August and September 1862. The Mankato hangings were intended to put the war to rest, but it has remained a heated topic among many Indians and some whites for 150 years, while others, even some who live in the region, are completely unaware of the bloody late summer of 1862.
Lyle W. Miller Sr., a Crow Creek teacher and 1993 Dakota Wesleyan University graduate, spoke on the 1862 Dakota War during a Dec. 14 presentation at the Mitchell Prehistoric Indian Village.
"When I think about that time in 1862, and I think about the reasons why it started — it had to happen," Miller said. "A lot of people think war isn't ever supposed to happen, but at this time, let's put it this way: There's no good about a war, but sometimes it has to happen. The little ones were starving. What do you do when you're faced with a position like that?"

In celebration of May being National Celiac Disease Awareness Month, I hope you will join me the next two weeks as I share some of my favorite gluten free cooking tips with you every day Monday - Friday. This is part of a series hosted by Linda of The Gluten Free Homemaker. At the end of this post and every post for the next ten weekdays, you'll find links to the other bloggers included in this series. Make sure to also read the details of the giveway, you have the chance to win a prize on every blog participating in this two week series!
Cooking Tip #1
Buy a high quality knife -- learn how to use it and take care of it!
Having a high quality chef's knife to prepare fresh food is essential to healthy, gluten free cooking. A high quality knife will be an investment, but if properly cared for can last a lifetime.
I have a small assortment of quality knives that I use. I have one small Wustof paring knife, 2 large J. A. Henckels chef's knives, and 4 Cutco knives. Many chefs and home cooks alike will argue over which company makes the best knives, but I think you simply have to find the knife that works best for you.
My husband prefers to use the Henckel chef's knife when he is helping to prepare meals. The knife has a large handle, is heavy, and fits well in his hand. I prefer the Cutco knives that we have (A small santuko knife, a paring knife, and a serrated knife). They fit my hands better ergonomically and are lighter than the Henckels knives.
If you have the opportunity, actually go to a specialty kitchen store like Bed, Bath, and Beyond or Williams Sonoma so that you can physically handle the knife and get the feel of it in your hand. You will know by holding the knife in position which brand will work best for you. You can learn basic cutting, chopping, and dicing skills by simply googling "culinary knife skills" or "kitchen knife techniques." You will find dozens of youtube videos and blog tutorials on how to properly use your high quality knives.
|My favorite 5" Petite Santuko Knife from Cutco
Here are a few links that I have found helpful in learning more about knife skills and taking proper care of your knives:

● How To Use a Chef's Knife
● How to Chop an Onion
● Basic Knife Skills
● How to Care for your Kitchen Knives
Reader's Tip of the Day: "A good 7" or 8" chef's knife, plus a knife skills class if needed. Best investment for cooking." -- Sally J. Parrott, author of Aprovechar

The name Abraham Lincoln was invoked by commentators and politicians again and again throughout president Barack Obama's inauguration festivities this week. Abe's imprint was everywhere — from the concert at the steps of the Lincoln Memorial to the bible used to administer Obama's oath of office.
Seeking to boost his image and muscle in on the good will of an unknowing public, Washington Nationals racing president Abe Lincoln made a number of unannounced appearances for the inauguration celebration.
In addition to appearances at the previously announced Children's Inaugural Ball and the Illinois Inaugural Gala, Abe was seen aboard the Illinois float in the inaugural parade.
Flickr photographer Ginger Vibes spotted Abe mingling with the crowd along Pennsylvania Avenue.
The suspected cheater and reigning presidents race champion was later caught by Flickr photographer Melanie Phung mugging with partygoers at the Texas State Society "Black Tie and Boots Ball."
Meanwhile, over at the Delaware State Society Inaugural Ball, Joe Biden was mingling with invited guest Teddy Roosevelt, seen here with Nat Pack member Stephanie Baldwin and Nationals Park mainstay Clint Kouhry, who I must say cleans up quite nicely:
Yes, the presidents certainly got around on Tuesday. It's great to see our that our favorite Nationals Park tradition has so quickly been embraced as a symbol of DC culture. Where else did you spot our racing presidents?

Good News! Obama Centrist, Realist
July 16, 2012 Leave a comment
It can be really depressing studying foreign policy and international conflicts. It's mostly bad news. Especially when, in addition to the death, destruction, terrorism and war reporting on mainstream media, you must also study the conspiracy sites. Blogs like The Ugly Truth, which I found off a link on a great foreign policy roundup of blogs. I signed up for the newsletter and the next day received 10 emails of anti-Israel and anti-U.S. propaganda (not necessarily all untrue). Though there are worthwhile alternative media perspectives among the posts, 10 highly subjective posts in a day is both lazy and desperate. And gratuitous: Commenting on the link to a story about how U.S. sanctions are compromising the safety of Iranian airlines, The Ugly Truth editors noted
ed note–which means that if (when) there is some crash of an Iranian airliner, resulting in the deaths of many innocent civilians, more likely than not it will be due to the American (Israeli) sanctions put in place.
Just in case we didn't see what this post had to do with Israel. Thanks for making your bias so blatant, The Ugly Truth. Another Ugly bias example is the tying of Israel to the Syrian opposition. From what I've read, Israel is at worst ambivalent about the somewhat one-sided Syrian Civil War. And I read a lot of different sources. For instance with Syria, Aljazeera English's website is predictably anti-Assad, Russia Today is mildly anti-U.S. so they support Russia's position even while they criticize the Kremlin and report on protests. The Economist is capitalist, imperialist and interventionist and The New York Times is, well, getting better.
They no longer just trumpet that "Massacre in Syria blamed on Assad, says everyone", and try to use vague terms when they don't know something (like "bloody clash") instead of just repeating what the Syrian opposition claims (like "civilian massacre"). The Times got a bit of a beatdown, and rightly so, for its reporting on Iran's nuclear program because it kept substituting "weapon" with what should have been "capability." As in, it's been proven Iranians want a "weapon" as opposed to just the capability to build one. Foreign correspondent David Sanger wrote the most egregious substitutions.
And this brings me to the good news. David Sanger's new book about the Obama foreign policy, Conceal and Confront, came out recently. Guess who was reviewed in the New York Times Book Review this week. The Times writer was getting his book reviewed in the Times about what he wrote about for the Times. This must be a totally objective review, right? No, of course not. But to tell the truth, I didn't care. I was just so happy that Sanger's book was not a hatchet job of the President's record. There are plenty of complaints to level at Obama from both the left—legit concerns like drone strike legality—and the right—mostly bullshit, like Obama's no friend of Israel—but, like Sanger, I believe that President Obama, aside from the Af/Pak surge, has a strangely decent, pragmatic and limited so-called doctrine.
First of all, to address the Israel criticism, the main reason there was tension between Washington and Jerusalem, was Obama wanted to avoid dragging us into war with Iran. We definitely don't want to go to war with Iran, because if there were any case at all for it, Mitt Romney would be howling. Republicans don't want to go into Syria, even John McCain has shut up about it. Hell, we told Turkey not to go to war with Syria.
No politician in the U.S. can sell any more American war. Republicans shut up about the lack of soldiers left in Iraq, even while Iraq teeters on the edge (you'd think Romney would attack with that). With soldiers in Afghanistan being blown up or murdered by their allies almost weekly, Obama's strategically ridiculous decision to surge with 30,000 troops and announce a short-ass withdrawal date at the same time has worked to his political advantage pre-election. Accelerating the withdrawal was cynical yet shrewd.
The other Republican criticism, correct if not utterly hypocritical, has Obama running an imperial presidency. Notice how no one in Congress actually bitched about Obama's decision to help NATO topple Colonel Qaddafi in Libya, just how he didn't check with Capitol Hill first. Every president gets this "overreach" criticism at some point.
Obama is certainly impenetrable to the charge of softie, ordering countless more drone strikes than W. and virtually assassinating quantities of al-Qaeda and Taliban officers. He refused to apologize for a chopper strike that killed 24 Pakistani soldiers, even though Pakistan is a client-ally we need. He ordered the Afghanistan surge and the killing of Osama bin Laden. He hit Iran with the toughest sanctions yet and unleashed a cyberwar on their nuclear program (detailed in Sanger's book).
Our defense department's pivot toward East Asia strategy has led to an arms race with China, the budding superpower. And this all in one term. By the way, we are sending warships to the Persian Gulf right now.
Where Obama's foreign policy sought restraint was in the Arab Awakening. Bravo! The left attacks him for not acting in some inspirational role with the Egyptian masses and the right attacks for betraying Hosni Mubarak, whom they claim was an ally. He was just another corrupt client and a greedy dictator who started killing his own people. That's why we "betrayed" him, Monica Crowley. Crowley is a racist fear-monger who preaches that Obama would rather see America destroyed than win a second term and that Sharia law is strangling America.
State and Defense had to walk a tightrope through the Mideast revolts, often following a healthy dose of rhetoric with, well, nothing. It was the sanest thing to do in such a complex situation. Hillary Clinton is meeting with new Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi, as well as the leaders of the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF). The rightist Islamophobia critique again fails because Egypt's Islamists—a comparatible Third Reich for Republicans and Fox News—are still off-set by the military, whom the U.S. supported to help keep things status quo. Clinton is asking the SCAF to give power to the President Morsi, but only in public. Both cynical and shrewd again.
As a realist who understands how low our country can sink (from Rumsfeld/Cheney's Iraq and Iran-Contra to Pinochet), I have such confidence in current best practices, with regard to this epoch of unstable nations, religious extremism and runaway deficits, that should Mitt Romney become president, I predict little will change. It can't get that much worse, can it? Never mind.
As the Times review of Sanger's book reads: "But in truth [Obama] has positioned himself nicely within a political sweetspot, one where Americans are loathe to see their country relinquish its premier global position but wary of unnecessary wars undertaken on wispy rationales."

This weekend is the full-scale launch of Pacific Standard Time, with exhibitions opening at more than 60 locations all around Southern California, including LACMA, the Getty, the Hammer, MoCA, and many more. You can get the full scoop on all of the participating institutions and exhibitions at the Pacific Standard Time website. More on our Pacific Standard Time exhibitions and info about free admission on Sunday below, but first: in celebration of Pacific Standard Time, actor Jason Schwartzman came to LACMA the other night, where he was promptly tormented by John Baldessari's disembodied head:
Our largest show of the fall, which is part of Pacific Standard Time, is California Design, 1930–1965: "Living in a Modern Way." It is open exclusively to members right now, and opens to the public tomorrow. If you've been following us on Unframed this week you've seen some behind–the–scenes posts about the show's installation, including yesterday's Q&A with architects Hodgetts + Fung. You can also like us on Facebook to get another peek at the show.
To start the weekend out, vocalist Melissa Morgan brings her Billie Holiday stylings to the Jazz at LACMA stage tonight. Get a taste of her sound here.
In addition to California Design, another beautiful exhibition will be opening to the public on Saturday—Monet/Lichtenstein: Rouen Cathedrals. This small but powerful exhibition pairs cathedral works from Claude Monet and Roy Lichtenstein painted six decades apart. Note that on Saturday evening, the museum will be closing at 5 pm. The last tickets for Tim Burton will be for the 3 pm hour.
On Sunday, in celebration of the launch of Pacific Standard Time, LACMA (except Tim Burton) and more than 25 other museums will be free all day. Free shuttle buses will also be running throughout the day between museums in the PST circuit. Look for the shuttles around town–Instant Mural, one of the iconic works from our Asco exhibition–adorns the side of them.
In the Art Catalogues bookstore on Sunday, ceramist Adam Silverman will be in conversation with architect Kulapat Yantrasast about Silverman's limited-edition ceramic work created exclusively for LACMA in conjunction with California Design.
And finally, Sunday evening, Los Angeles Electric 8 are joined by Javanese vocalist Peni Candra Rini for our free Sundays Live concert. This week's concert is part of the World Festival of Sacred Music.
