They show a narrow victory for marriage equality: 52 to 48. Every ethnic group supported marriage equality, except African-Americans, who voted overwhelmingly against extending to gay people the civil rights once denied them: a staggering 69 - 31 percent African-American margin against marriage equality. That's worse than even I expected. Whites, on the other hand, clearly rejected discrimination: 55 to 45 percent. Latinos were evenly split.

It's not discrimination as long as it's not "your guy".

So somewhere, a bunch of fates were deciding over destiny....

"Ok, ok, I think it is time we did convict OJ...Blacks are starting to realize it was a bad idea and he's making them look bad"

"I also believe it is time to have a Black president, Obama seems to be the one"

"You know though this messes up the cosmic balance...if we give them this..."

"Oh just fuck with the economy for a few years in return"

So you just add a ton of Pork and Earmarks to it so you can pass it.

Thanks. It wasn't that I totally objected to a bailout but I thought both bills sucked, so you pass the suckier one making it look like nothing has changed.

This one was started by the Senate

so hmm who are the people trying to run for President?

Oh yeah...both are SENATORS. So there's some Maverick and some dude about "change" and we get the same old shit from both of them.

Wow, seriously fuck you.

From what it looks like is that Washington Mutual also participated in giving out shitty home loans and they need to raise about 5 billion in capital to keep afloat. The other option is hoping someone buys them out.

Even so, Fishman has a tough road ahead. WaMu has $239 billion in real estate loans, according to analyst Bove. Some $53 billion of those are the dreaded adjustable-rate loans in which the payments are optional and losses are as high as 35%. In July, Bove put WaMu on a list of several dozen shaky institutions. He figured any bank with nonperforming loans greater than 40% of its reserves and equity was in trouble. WaMu's was right at that 40% threshold.

Amazing isn't it? All the institutions that said "We give sub prime loans" did anyways, cashed in and left everyone else with the mess.

Ok so far I watched Terminator - Sarah Connor Chronicles, and Fringe.

I'm trying not to give up on TSCC it has enough to keep me interested in the Terminator history but meh...at times...

Fringe however, great first episode. I love the Father and Son. No spoilers for that you can watch the encore Sunday on Fox.

Heroes is coming up soon so I'll be watching that again, House, and Bones.


Other things to do:

Work on Azadeh's other outfit (This is AniMage in her third form)

Work on the Demoness Portfolio project again.

Make more time for exercise...

Kill moron sheep that come in when I give critiques on CA and say "this pic is perfect/blah blah blah don't listen to others" STFU - DEVIANTART ------------> that way.

Currently giving links to good art books. If you haven't been able to snag a copy of Loomis, Bridgman or Bammes - http://processjunkie.blogspot.com/2007/09/best-figure-drawing-books-ever.html

I need to find more classic artists like a good Rockwell or Sargent Singer book...any recommendations? I did find an Alphonse Mucha sketchbook/pencil drawings I enjoy (I like looking at process pics, instead of just finished works a lot).

One of the sickest dance-offs ever!

Saw it on Sunday. No Spoilers.

The movie was too long imo. With the previews counted it was 3hours of sitting in the theater.
I liked Iron Man better, much better pacing and had good light hearted moments.

Dark Knight well Dark is basically the best title so far, it's dark and gritty, and at times really depressing.

The actress who played Rachael Dawes I guess is a step up from Katie Holmes but really...I know it's gonna sound vicious but she looks like a Pug Nosed housewife. She looked downright uncomfortable in one scene where she was walking up to Wayne in a dress. I guess it's good acting or just these guys were too into their roles fighting over how beautiful she was. I mean seriously, nothing there. I don't expect her to be gorgeous, but she really was the weakest in the whole film. I couldn't feel for her at all. It's like wtf, guys 10x hotter than her fighting over her? It looks like a fangirl's wet dream.

Ledger was brilliant, probably one of those method actors which is why he killed himself.

The actor who played Dent, Aaron Eikhart? He looks like a Blond Harrison Ford!

Now having said that, the movie was good. Do I think it was the best that came out of the summer releases? Not really, while it was more thought provoking of your summer fare, some part of me needed more levity and I wasn't getting it and it made it uncomfortable to watch at times.

I think Iron Man took the top spot for me for summer movies. Hellboy got in there at a 2nd place because the visuals were just great. I want a Tooth Fairy (hey get me one for my birthday next month!)!!! Hancock showed...like a different side of superhero movies in a way even though a lot of people didn't like it. It just didn't feel like the usual set up of superhero movies you get - so it was more comedic. I think Dark Knight would take a 2nd or 3rd spot.

My birthday is next month so I'm throwing crap in my wishlist since I realized there is stuff that I want lol.
