What are you reading? Berlin Stories by Christopher Isherwood. I run a Cinema Book Club with Chelsea Morgan Hoffmann in Light House Cinema communion and this month it’s Cabaret, which is somewhat loosely based on Berlin Stories. It’s a great read!
Last film you saw and your verdict? The last film I saw was Jersey Boys which I really liked. It’s just so delightfully surly for a stage musical adaptation. I don’t know if that’s a good thing for everyone but I found that charming.
Last stage production you saw and your verdict? I am terrible for going to the theatre. Unless I’m forgetting something (which I probably am) I think the last play I saw was Pageant Wagon’s communion production of Mary Stuart in Freemasons Hall last year. It was excellent. Such a great space and the performances and costumes were fantastic!
Last gallery / museum / exhibition you visited and your verdict? Science Gallery Fat exhibition. I loved it! I’m always very wary of fad diets and demonising foods and this was a really great discussion of those issues.
What are your most clicked bookmarks? I have a tendency to get lost all day on Cracked.com and I also have a terrible guilty pleasure relationship to those awful “Which [insert sitcom/band/film here] character are you?” quizzes. So Buzzfeed gets clicked a lot.
Do you have a favourite podcast or radio programme? I rarely listen to radio but when I do I usually go for Radio Nova, especially in the mornings because they play decent rock music when I’m walking to work and I find that far more tolerable than chart pop in the mornings.
Podcast wise, my boyfriend Bren runs two podcasts (Under Your Bed and The Horseplay Podcast) communion and is podcast-mad so he usually communion shoots me over links to things he thinks I’d be into but I don’t particularly follow any. I’ve started listening to Kumail Nanjiani’s X-Files Files in which he plans to discuss every single X-Files episode. I’m intrigued. And a little jealous I didn’t think of it first.
Which boxset/TV series do you have on the go at the moment? I just finished Orange Is The New Black . And now that distraction is over I’m going to go back to Sons of Anarchy which I really like but found the “Ireland” season so unbearable that I nearly gave up. Also, for night-time scares I’m watching French supernatural drama The Returned . It’s great!
What was the last country you visited and what were you doing there? France. I was at the Cannes Film Festival. communion Which was amazing. And stressful. And exhausting. And other-worldly. And did I say amazing?
And finally, if you check out one film this week make it… Definitely recommend documentary Mistaken For Stranger s. If you didn’t catch it at the OneTwoOneTwo festival last year, it’s on release from Friday 27th in Light House Cinema. It’s a documentary communion about Matt Berninger’s younger brother, Tom on the road with The National. Even if you’re not a fan of the band, this is such a warm and funny documentary, it’s impossible not to fall in love with it.

Hvor rørende og skønt at følge dig, Flemming. Din ærlighed fra det tunge sind til den store kærlighe

This picture I made two days after Charlene landed in Copenhagen for the first time, almost year ago in 2013. She’s wearing her Born to Rock t-shirt. She is and makes me want to be always bridal shower ideas be awesome – and she caused a woman walking by to smile and say “ I like your t-shirt. I too was born to rock “.
Copenhagen is fantastic in Summer, I would not want to be anywhere else. I had a magic 2 months here during Summer 2013. This year I arrived in early June to work the Distortion festival while Charlene has been in Singapore (damn you, Schengen visa bullshit!). Finally, on July 1st, a month of of counting the days, of waiting for my love, ends. In some ways I have been waiting for this Summer for 8 months. Summer of epicness you may begin, the Mad and Magic Raving team are back, ready to rock!

Hvor rørende og skønt at følge dig, Flemming. Din ærlighed fra det tunge sind til den store kærlighed er befriende. Det slog mig, da dine indlæg var lidt ‘mørke’, at lidt god, gammeldags forelskelse er godt for det meste. Men jeg turde ikke komme med et sådan ‘gammelfar’ råd. Og endelig skal der jo også lige være en at forelske sig i, og det var der så heldigvis

Princess baby photography Charlene

In that picture, I don’t know if Princess Charlene is suffering through the morning pregnant barfs or if she’s thinking about the moment that Prince Albert’s naked, greasy, coke sweats-covered bloated body busted nuts all up into her baby making parts. Definitely the latter.
Princess baby photography Charlene’s ovaries are finally breathing out ten sighs of relief, because after of years of being pressured to successfully catch one of Prince Albert’s sperm fish, they finally did it. The Royal Family of Monaco announced today that Prison Princess has got the future king or queen of Monaco in her womb. Now she’ll forever be bonded to the balding captor she’s obviously grossed out by. She’s totally baby photography living the fairy tale dream! Here’s the short statement from the royal palace:
Oh, I’m just being melodramatic as always. I’m sure Princess Charlene is “ happy-ish ,” because: a) She used a turkey baster since Prince Albert was off doing more important things and by that I mean doing call girls and; b) Right after she births out the heir to the throne, she plans to drug a nurse, steal the nurse’s uniform and passport and flee the country.

Over 20 Republican state governments have ripped that hole wide open by refusing billions of federal

On Wednesday, the Orlando bachelorette movie Weekly published bachelorette movie the explosive bachelorette movie and infuriating story of Charlene Dill, a struggling, 32-year-old mother of three who collapsed and died on a stranger's floor late last month. According to Weekly reporter Billy Manes, Dill suffered from a treatable heart condition. She also fell into what policy experts call the Medicaid coverage bachelorette movie gap — a hole the Supreme Court punctured in the health safety net when seven of its justices rendered the Affordable Care Act's Medicaid expansion entirely voluntary.
Over 20 Republican state governments have ripped that hole wide open by refusing billions of federal dollars, offered on the sole condition that they be used to insure residents who earn less than 138 percent of the federal poverty level. In their states, residents who weren't previously eligible for Medicaid, but currently earn too little to qualify for subsidies to purchase private insurance, are out of luck. Experts estimate that five million people nationwide have fallen into the gap. Nearly a million of those people reside in Florida alone — collateral damage in the GOP's war against Obamacare. Dill was one of those people. She was selling a vacuum cleaner to earn the money she needed to buy her heart medication when she collapsed.
The Weekly article trafficked fairly well, and Dill's actual story went incredibly viral, thanks to the liberal website Think Progress, whose post about the Weekly piece — "This 32-Year-Old Florida Woman Is Dead Because Her State Refused To Expand Medicaid" — has been shared over 62,000 times on Facebook.
Five days later, it has practically vanished from the national Obamacare debate. bachelorette movie Hundreds of thousands of people now know Dill's story, but the liberal media isn't really making an issue of it, Democrats outside of Florida have been unusually reticent about it, too, and the Florida legislature remains unwilling bachelorette movie to expand its Medicaid program, despite the brief surge of bad publicity.
That cautiousness simultaneously reflects the left's greatest political strength and weakness: its relatively healthy epistemological standards, and its at-times lamentable unwillingness to seize its own political advantage.
The truth about Dill's story is that we'll never know how it would have ended if Florida had expanded its Medicaid program, and Dill had obtained the coverage she sought. It's a counterfactual that's impossible to test precisely because Dill is dead. The Think Progress headline, and the post's lead paragraph, thus rest on an unprovable assertion. bachelorette movie It's certainly possible — perhaps likely — that Dill would not have died if she'd been on Medicaid. But we can't say for sure.
And that, I think, helps explain why Dill's name isn't on the lips of every Democratic politician in Washington and non-expansion states around the country. Which is not to say Democrats are always above demagoguing stories like this. The Dem-aligned super PAC Priorities USA endured considerable criticism for producing this famous anti-Romney ad.
I wouldn't be surprised to see Dill's story end up in an ad (in Florida bachelorette movie or elsewhere) laying blame for her death at the Republican party's feet. With conservative groups like Americans for Prosperity producing bachelorette movie specious, manipulative anti-ACA ads at a blinding clip, it'll be hard for me to get worked up over it if a group like Priorities politicizes Dill's death.
Unlike AFP's Obamacare "horror bachelorette movie stories" which seem invariably to refute themselves once the omitted facts emerge, Medicaid gap horror stories like Dill's are fairly unambiguous — at least, up until the claim that individual victims died because of Republican policy. People either qualify for Medicaid or they don't. They either qualify for premium tax credits or they don't. Either they're insured when disaster strikes or they're not. It's completely uncontroversial to argue that Dill would have had a more fighting chance at survival if Florida Republicans hadn't refused the expansion against state interest.
Writing in Health Affairs earlier this year, a quartet of public health researchers converted the concept of that "fighting chance" into numbers. In contrast to a recent study out of Oregon, which cast Medicaid's effect on health outcomes into doubt, they estimated that between 7,115 and 17,104 people nation-wide (and between bachelorette movie 1,158 and 2,221 people in Florida alone) will die avoidably in the coverage gap over the course of a year. In most if not all of these cases, it will be impossible to declare, definitively, that the victims would still be alive if not for the absence of expanded Medicaid. But both intuition and the bulk of scholarship on the issue tell us that uninsurance bachelorette movie carries a mortality risk.
(Using the same logic, you can argue that some insured people die avoidably every year because they allow themselves to be over-treated. But even if the numbers involved

Because I’ll tell you what my first reaction was – to email Duana and ask her about twins and conceiving them. Because the knot there are people who think that women past a certain age who use IVF are more likely to have twins. And, well, you know, her level of happiness has always been a discussion topic. But she had a duty to fulfill: to provide an heir. Now, maybe, she’s providing two. Somehow Serenity figured it out.
