Israel accepts and treats gays very well while Hamas, the PLO and pretty much every single country in a 500 mile radius brutalizes and/or just kills them outright. So if you're an anti-Israel gay activist, how do you square the circle on this uh, rather sharp disparity? Well if you're Sara Schulman of CUNY, you invent an entirely new concept - 'pinkwashing':
The growing global gay movement against the Israeli occupation has named these tactics “pinkwashing”: a deliberate strategy to conceal the continuing violations of Palestinians’ human rights behind an image of modernity signified by Israeli gay life..Ah those clever zionist occupier types - they're only being nice to teh gays so they can keep the straight Palestinians down.
Of course sometimes the Israelis really are clever:
Silverstein claimed that "an authoritative Israeli source with considerable military experience" told him that the IDF used a "Trojan Horse" style trap. A few weeks ago it was reported that an Israeli drone disappeared over Lebanon. Silverstein now claims Israel "out foxed Hezbollah" as Hezbollah brought the downed drone to its arms cache. Once inside the arms cache it was detonated, causing a massive explosion.
7 Actors Who Have No Credibility Left
Well at a certain point you're so over the top that no amount of over-acting can save you. A classic example is Nicolas Cage (who's not actually #1 on the list):
First of all, his tendency to overact his ass off has left him a caricature of himself, a manic weirdo who chews so much scenery that even Al Pacino thinks he needs to calm down. Second, the dude has picked some astoundingly awful movies to star in. If you donÂ’t believe me, here is the list of movies that he has starred in over the last decade:Captain CorelliÂ’s Mandolin, Christmas Carol: The Movie, Windtalkers, Sonny, Adaptation (the one truly good movie in the whole damn decade), Matchstick Men, National Treasure, Lord of War, The Weather Man, The Ant Bully, World Trade Center, The Wicker Man, Ghost Rider, a cameo in Grindhouse, Next, National Treasure: Book of Secrets, Bangkok Dangerous, Knowing, G-Force, The Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call, Astro Boy, Kick-Ass, The SorcererÂ’s Apprentice, Season of the Witch, Drive Angry, Seeking Justice, and Trespass.
Passenger Forced to Stand for 7 Hours on U.S. Airways Flight
Why? Because the 400lb passenger next to him spilled over into his seat keeping from sitting, and the plane was completely full. Pretty much a nightmare flight and probably against a couple of FAA rules. US Airways offered him a paltry $200 voucher, but he really deserves a full refund.
'I didn't fly from Alaska to Philadelphia on Flight 901,’ Mr Berkowitz told consumer advocate Christopher Elliot’s blog. ‘I stood.’
'His size required both armrests to be raised up and allowed for his body to cover half of my seat,Â’ he told the website, elliott.org.The flight from Anchorage to Philadelphia is one of the longest non-stop U.S. domestic flights and Mr Berkowitz thought he had a spare seat at first. But before the door closed the airline asked a late-boarding passenger who weighed 400lbs to sit down next to him in the last empty seat.
Find the Kitteh - Ultimate Edition
Okay there's at least one kitteh in every single one of these pictures. Well supposedly - there were a couple that I just couldn't find the feline in. Be prepared to spend an hour or two going through the pictures at the link. This is one of the easier ones..
A Billion Years in the Blink of an Eye
The human mayflies dance over the planet, deluding themselves with their dreams of control, while the Earth abides.
Gluttony? Check.
Meet the cherpumple - a 21lb cake made up of cherry, pumpkin, and apple pies. Add some nuts and I think you'll have Michelle weeping tears of sweet, sweet despair.

Feel so bad about that dude on the plane. Unfreaking believeable. I have sat next to big peeps on the plane before (the ones who flag down the flight attendant as soon as they lumber on because they need a seat belt extender). The one kid, his own parents didn't sit with him (they sat a row behind him)--because they knew how uncomfortable it would be sitting next to his giant butt!
The next thing they do is flip up the armrest between us. I have sat in 1/4 of my chair because they are pouring into my seat. So I have my legs crossed (something you should never do on a flight because of the risk of developing a DVT) and am leaning on my hubby with my armrest raised. Horrible!

It was always amusing to watch Steven Seagal try to act like he is a suave love-machine, especially in Hard to Kill and Above the Law.
As for what movie of his was the worst, um...despite all the crappy direct-to-DVD films he's made over the past decade, I'm still going to say that Seagal's worst movie was On Deadly Ground, regardless of that film's superior production values when compared to said direct-to-DVD garbage.

My insane wife managed to drag me out on Thanksgiving eve. I see insanity in my future
Ugh! I had to go to Costco today. I got there a little later than I wanted to (due to another errand that ran over). I got there 20 minutes after it opened, and I had to park in the overflow lot across the street. I didn't get a cart (just ran in and grabbed the few things I really needed); I decided I will go back after Thanksgiving to get my Christmas greenery (they have the best deal on fresh garlands and wreaths).
Then I went to Target--no one there! (Despite all their 4 day only sales promotions). I guess people will be hitting there around midnight--so in a few hours. Then I had to run to the mall, and that was crowded.
You would not know there is a recession on the Eastside (across the Lake from Seattle).

We stayed hunkered down today, but yesterday I had to run errands and our local fire & emergency folks decided to have a boot drive, screwing up traffic on the major arteries.
If my husband had been in the car with me, I would have had to wrest the steering wheel from him so we didn't run them over (he hates those things), but since I was alone and the fireman was cute, I gave him money.
Is that wrong of me?

From Kratos's link's link:
Police were called to the Occupy Seattle encampment at Seattle Central Community College after a possible sexual assault Friday night.
A woman was coming back to her tent and found a strange man running out of it. Inside, another woman was passed out on the ground, naked from the waist down. Police took the victim to Harborview and are looking for the suspect.
“It seems like he was caught in the act, not having sex with her but she was just about to get assaulted,” said Occupy Seattle’s Robbie Watts.
I hate to sound like a traitor to my sex and a cold hearted bitch, but if you are a woman and you are stupid enough to make the conscious choice to live on the streets in a tent with a bunch of unwashed thugs, criminals and drug addicts, you get what you deserve. Sorry.

Those girls are going to need good therapists if they reach adulthood. I'd feel sorry for them, if they weren't rich and connected to power (no death panels for the children of apparatchiks...).
I keep waiting for Chelsea Clinton to have a break down some day. I know she had some wild years in college, but I keep thinking that she is going to crack from all the pressure that her parents put on her. Obviously, she is prepping for a run for some elected office as she is currently attending the NBC Charm School.

Don't know about the rest of y'all, but I'm more than ready to let the world slide for the weekend and eat myself into a coma. Plus watch a bit of football.
Our house smells tremendous due to the 2 pumpkin and 2 apple pies I just took out of the oven. Tomorrow will have a dozen or so people gathered, 3 of whom will be retired military, as guests of honor. Dinner will have venison alongside the turkeys (one is the hen my grandkid got with her bow) the deer meat is from me.
Good times.

I actually wanted Captain CorelliÂ’s Mandolin to be a good movie. There aren't enough WW2 films from the Axis perspective, specifically the Italians. I can't believe someone hasn't made a big budget film about Mussolini either.
There were a lot of interesting stories that could easily translate into exciting movies.

Then we get home to my place, and my parents both mention something about going to the emergency room and I come out of the bedroom and they both start laughing.

Much like Selma Gomez is for Justin Bieber.
I was watching her (by her I mean Selena) with my niece, and I caught myself gawking a little bit, felt pretty dirty about it. My nephew was like why are we watching her yuck! I told him he would understand one day.

Who?
It's been about a year or so, but I read a profile of Jon Hamm where he talked about moving to LA with his GF when he landed the role of Don Draper on Mad Men. He sounded committed to her -- but not enough to get married.

thanks guys I want you to know dad looked like he was willing to offer my friend and i money to stay, but i had to take her home. This Holiday will be hard but we are so so grateful we didnt lose her that i am willing to take my meal a little bit funky and a little bit crazy. I dont know what the future will bring but we got a reprieve.
SO i am encouraged. for now i keep promising mom she can have christmas food when shes better and hoping Sissy can pull this caper off.
Shes been gone for so long its hard to say what she can do. But i have never know her to choke under pressure so i look forward to a delightful meal tomorrow.
shes trying to land a big fish and i think she will do her best to impress him if not us, with her effort.
but we will be lucky if mom doesnt use the last of her strength to hit dad with a frying pan. Shes really frustrated with him keeping her on that couch! It has been pointed out she rests as well as me!

Thank you. coming from you it means a lot, Peaches. SHe collapsed downstairs, at their house, with an internal bleed and we almost didnt catch it in time. Dad has been beside himself, it took days to get it nailed down. We have a clear malpractice case but you know it means nothing if you lose your mother. Nothing.
so we are making her lay the fuck down and BEHAVE DAMMIT!!!!
Its been very hard to live with and I have been so upset i couldnt talk about it.
My friend who was in the car wreak is improving and has been transferred to a hospice. I dont know whether to be pleased or cry. I choose to be pleased for now.
so there is that. Friend is not dead, and is now sitting up and speaking. Mom better. She has a good DR now. Lots of lovely friends praying for them. Much to give thanks for this TG, for me.
But there are days i want life to slow down and get simpler again please.

South Coast Plaza and the rest of Costa Mesa pretty much blew my mind. A staggering standard of living. If I can ever afford the place, and if OC/IE/SD finally secede from the rest of the state, I'll be back.

I had a new Asus monitor and an old monitor that was wearing out - I would turn it on and it would turn off immediately several times before staying on.
I bought a new Asus monitor. Now I don't have that issue. But...when I scroll up and down it flickers. Since I got the same model of monitor, I set the settings exactly the same. The one difference is the new monitor is connected via VGA and the older one via DVI.
So, does the issue probably like with the monitor, the VGA cable, or the video card?

Chico Marx found himself attending a party where the new-to-Hollywood Bankhead was also a guest. And he really wanted to meet her, but in those days, a man had to be introduced to a lady before he could start talking to her. So, he asked a mutual friend to make the introduction. He refused, as Chico was a notorious babehound (Chico is actually pronounced Chick-O, because he was always chasing the chicks). He told Chico, basically, "Now, look here; she is a lady. Her father is the Speaker of the House! I can't introduce you, because I don't trust you to show her the proper respect."
Chico kept working on his friend, insisting he'd respect Miss Bankhead, and eventually convinced his friend that the proper decorum would be observed. Finally, Chico was introduced to Miss Bankhead by the punchbowl.
"Miss Bankhead," he said, "I'd really like to fuck you."
"And so you shall, you old-fashioned boy!" she replied.

The liberal cocoon is a *major* factor. Since the moguls and stars are hard core liberals the people you want to ingratiate yourself with are all liberals, doing liberal things and are very in your face about it.
Actors don't usually ever have the experience of a regular working person - they are generally either poor or rich warping your view of the economy.
And finally, modern actors aren't general propelled to stardom by talent, or even hardwork. It is usually a mix of familial connections (spend some time on IMDB...), luck, looks, and the casting couch. This again warps their notion of what a free market looks like. Hell, if Hollywood was the only industry I had any understanding of I'd likely be a socialist too...

I'm meeting a friend of mine next weekend in Houston to go dancing as well. When I asked her what hotel she was staying at so I could book a room nearby, she told me "I'll just stay with you to save money. Book a double bed, or whatever. I don't mind." I'm tempted to tell her all they had was a single king

At Easter, Costco had a cooler filled to the brim with lamb roasts. I was about to buy, until I saw emblazoned upon the packaging the stamp Halal and arabic writing.
I knew what halal was, and was incensed that I was purchasing, for the highest holy days of Christianity, a piece of meat that was claimed for Allah, who would like to wipe me and my religion off the face of the earth.
I dropped a complaint at our local Costco, and let them know I will never purchase said product. You all do the same if you wish to not be subjected. Haven't seen halal anything since Easter.
But there's always next year.

The dude was wounded by an RPG in the Valley of Elah,
Afghanistan in 2001, he also went back to the Valley of Elah in 2006 and then was ordered back to Afghanistan in 2007 to Congo Valley.
Wait, you mean there is no Valley of Elah in Afghanistan? Well Congo Valley then, what's that, no Congo Valley either?
He's just confused, let's look at his DD 214, WTF, it says he served his entire enlistment at Ft. Lewis, WA. Damn it also says he got out of the Army in January of 2001, when did that war start again?

mayo indeed works. and makes it golden brown
is it mean to say that i looked, made the appropriate noises and forgot what it looked like except to say its black? i simply didnt find it that interesting. My taste has always run to unique heavy silver--turquoise and coral squash blossom jewelry, made by NA artisans.
diamonds and designer stuff look all the same to me, and theres always someone with something better.
but that squash blossom heirloom stuff is all collectors pieces. Like the old silver turkoman jewelry i also collect. its all what you are into. but i just cant shake the feelin shes tryin to make me feel bad my guy's not rich like hers.

Deety, this works to keep the breast meat moist. Part of it sounds weird but it does work.
Rub Olive oil into the skin then put whatever spices you like on it. I use rosemary but thats me. You could use the butter you were talking about instead of the olive oil.
Then take a paper shopping bag and cut it down the middle of one face of the bag, run water over it and get it good and wet and then cover the bird with it. Make sure it's a couple of inches from the heating coil on top, although that dosesn't ususaly turn on unless you turn the broiler on.
Sounds weird but it works.

1. Brine the bird the day before, using some combination of allspice, cloves, peppercorns, bay leaves, salt, brown sugar, and any other seasoning that's threatening to hit its expiration date. Boil the mixture first, then crash-cool it (yes, you can use ice cubes). Rinse the turkey, put it in the container, toss in the fluid, stuff in the fridge.
2. The morning you're cooking the bird, look for overgrown herbs in the garden. Snip them, rinse them, set them aside. Rosemary, bay, and sage work really well, but whatever you have too much of is fine. I'd probably avoid mint. Make sure they're culinary herbs and not hemlock, oleander, etc.
3. Melt butter. If there are any expiring herbs you missed in step 1, melt them into the butter. Set aside.
4. Divide herbs into "bird" and "bath". Bird herbs should fit loosely into cavity. Put "bath" herbs into roaster pan.
5. Yank the bird out of the brine, drain (including cavity!). Use barbecue brush to slather bird's breast, cavity, and back with butter from 3. Put on rack in roaster pan. Discard brine.
6. Stuff "bird" herbs loosely into cavity. Put about 1 cup water and 1/2 cup wine into roaster pan. Shove into oven. Set timer (depends on bird size).
7. Drink.
8. When any reasonable person would have given up on the project, and the timer goes "bing", yank bird out of oven and flip over. Use ORKA silicone gloves for actual flip -- turkey flipping tools are a complete waste of time.
9. Drink. Entertain guests.
10. When you remember, pull bird out and check temperature in thigh space. Don't just check breast, or you'll end up reenacting Neanderthal food fights with the remainder of the carcass. If it's good, proceed -- otherwise, go back to step 9.
11. Put bird on cutting board, ignore for 10-15 minutes, then stagger out of kitchen bleary-eyed aimlessly waving carving knife and fork and slurring words. If someone from crowd takes knife and fork, it's their problem from then on.
Any questions?

Deety, The Universitly of Illinois says my paper bag method is unsafe and reccomends buying a bag from the store. I have done it several times and it has always turned out great. You may want to run to the store and get a proper bag though.
Here are some different methods. I don't put water in the pan. I stuff the turkey with rosemary and lemon quarters. The bag keeps it moist.

Posted by: The Dude at November 23, 2011 10:39 PM (M8yfa)
Go down to the deli counter of your supermarket. Look at the turkey selection. You'll probably find oven-roasted, garlic and herb, cajun spiced, sun-dried tomato and basil, mesquite smoked, rosemary and garlic, honey-mustard, and fried. It doesn't matter what the specifics are, though -- there is a hint being applied with a sledgehammer here. TURKEY IS BLAND STUFF, BUT YOU CAN DO ALMOST ANYTHING WITH IT.
Don't worry. Even if it's "unique", just boldface your way through it: "mmmm.....came out just like I wanted it to." So long as it's cooked through to where it's safe, you're golden.

You can even see this in action if you go to one of the cafeteria places where they roast birds in the window with heatlamps. They actually charge people for those -- and is it half the bother of a home-roasted Thanksgiving bird?

Late to the party, but since we're all sharing: I have a turkey breast, bones-in, brining right now; the brine is kosher salt, brown sugar, 1 bay leaf, and (here's the spicy little trick: crab boil, 1 tbsp per gallon of water). Since it's 7 pounds, it will be a hot (300F) smoke over apple, which should be good in approximately 3 to 4 hours. I'll mop with a hot water / butter / garlic mix after the first hour, after the meat is flipped from breast side down to breast side up, every 30 minutes, just to prevent drying. I've left the skin on, so I may throw it in the oven and hit the broiler for 10 minutes when the internal temp gets around 150, just to crisp up the skn. It's a work in progress, we'll see how it works tomorrow. Cheers.

Vic- I too believe that all actors have some bad movies in the library but for me, Cosner is a special case. After dances with wolves he got such a big head that he felt all Cosner movies need more time for more Cosner and every movie became a three hour marathon.
I liked him before that.

Your right about the lists Vic. They listed every movie Cage ever made. And included animated stuff. Are actors really judged on their voice overs. I think they picked some actors they didn't like but were lazy in explaining why.
Cheap list making and list making is already cheating.

Before we start the depressing news lets look at Lincoln's Thanksgiving Day proclamation
The year that is drawing towards its close, has been filled with the blessings off fruitful fields and healthful skies. To these bounties, which are so constantly enjoyed that we are prone to forget the source from which they come, others have been added, which are of so extraordinary a nature, that they cannot fail to penetrate and soften even the heart which is habitually insensible to the ever watchful providence of Almighty GodÂ….

Former black congressman says black Dems are split on immigration issue
If I remember accurately way back in the debate over McCain-Kennedy (which passed the Senate and was narrowly defeated in the House after a grassroots swell and phone) public opinion was running 75% against it. This issue is a huge loser for the Dems but they keep pushing it. The difference now is they try to push it in the stealth mode or just ignore the laws like Obama does.
I think Newt screwed up, but then again his past record (and RomneyÂ’s) hasnÂ’t hurt him that much yet. In the end, we will see.

WOW, here is a law I never new anything about - imagine that
Florida Republican Rep. Sandy Adams is demanding answers from Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, who has been unable to point to any cases where the U.S. enforced existing law requiring the government to stop issuing visas to individuals from countries that refuse to take their citizens back from the U.S. After a six-month detention period, such illegal immigrants are released into U.S. communities.
So if a country refuses to take back one of their criminals we are supposed to stop issuing visas. Why have we never heard of this law, and most importantly, why is it not being enforced?
