The University of California, Berkeley was just slapped with a lawsuit over its mishandling of Ann Coulter's scheduled lecture on campus. Young America's Foundation (YAF) and the Berkeley College Republicans (BCR) filed a suit in federal court suing the school for violating their rights to free speech, due process, and equal protection on Monday. The suit, which is available on YAF's website, names several Berkeley administrators along with University of California President Janet Napolitano as defendants.

I like Sargent quite a lot, but this one is not moving. I'll take "Portrait of Therese" literally, as in someone paid a lot for a portrait of Therese, who is a perfectly attractive woman but there's nothing special about this.
Her legs are very elongated. I'm going to use this as support for the paid portrait theory, because this is flattering to the subject. (She doesn't look like a girl who would be hiding huge stripper platform heels under that dress). I believe it's possible to know whether any of my postulations are correct by looking things up, but that's cheating. Posted by: Bandersnatch at April 25, 2017 10:03 AM (gIRsn) 144

With that in mind, I would imagine a Chelsea regime would be like that - where people would be endless engaged in her pretend-wonkish discussions (you've seen her quotes, right?) and people would sit frozen for hours, smiling, nodding, feigning interest and then eventually passing out from boredom.

It's a NBC propaganda piece fake news article about a fake news panel. It's pretty blatant too. Check this line: "We're wondering how a bunch of 20-year-olds with signs and facts scared away the president's counterterrorism advisor," Meshnick said. "Why was that so intimidating to him?"

Models often have back teeth removed too, so they can get that sunken cheekbone look. Posted by: grammie winger at April 25, 2017 11:00 AM (dFi94) Ugh. Not too attractive a look when they age, I reckon. Unless they plan to die young from drugs and booze.

I'm guessing she had to remove ribs to get that corset to fit, too.
Posted by: Mark Andrew Edwards at April 25, 2017 10:58 AM (xJa6I) I'm going to call "urban legend" on this, too. I've done a lot of reading and, save for a very few fetishists, no one had their ribs removed to fit into a corset. To begin with, the mortality rate of such an operation in the 19th century would have been enormous, let alone the task of trying to find a competent surgeon who could perform the procedure. What happened was that girls, once they reached a certain age - around 13 or so, but sometimes even earlier - would be given "training corsets," which would gradually be tightened over the years until the body shaped itself into the desired hourglass effect, though the reports of 15 or 13-inch waists were few and far between and were almost never the norm.

Objection:
Presidents do not directly affect markets. They indirectly affect them. Do not attribute too much credit/blame for the stock market to any president. Posted by: TheJamesMadison at April 25, 2017 10:04 AM (/prE6) I made the joke mostly because of the 100 day nonsense flying around. If the markets had crashed it would certainly be Trump's fault, especially since so many people were predicting it after his election. Seems like a pretty successful First 100 Days to me.

There is no right way to eat okra.
I fully endorse broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus, and especially spinach. I am not familiar with okra. The only unforgivable sin is lima beans. If I could go back to my childhood and remove all lima beans I'm sure I would have turned out better. I'm pretty sure that feeding your kids lima beans counts as child abuse these days.

Sweden deathwatch:
Over at JihadWatch a story about anIraq "refugee" who raped (definitely anally, probably vaginally) a 14 year old girl. There's even a video, but don't worry, he won't be tried for child pornography. Well, it's been decided he has a "touch of ADHD" and does not understand "no." So he has to pay the girl $$ (hahaha) and is "sentenced for protection," whatever that means. I guess it's open season on all Swedish women, and not understanding "no" is a valid and beautiful defense. Don't see why they just don't officially make all non-Swedes exempt from Swedish laws. It will free up the courts. Posted by: shibumi at April 25, 2017 11:15 AM (FkAXz) 366

I wanted to add my 2 bits concerning cauliflower. I mostly hate the stuff, however, I enjoy making it into potato chips. Slice thinly - it falls apart but don't worry about it -- and spread in tsingle layer on jelly roll pan. Sprinkle lightly with olive oil and coarse grain salt. Roast in 400 degree oven until desired level of crispy, tossing every now and then. Yum! And no cleaning of multiple kitchen implements.
