Model Eye Tattoo – CWEB.com
And how could it be legal for a layperson to inject something, anything, into someone else’s eye? I don’t even think it should be legal for an ophthalmologist to inject something into someone’s eye for cosmetic reasons.
“Gallinger said she wanted her sclera dyed purple to contrast with her green eyes. ‘It’s not that I wanted to stand out to the public, but for me it’s part of expressing who I am,’ she said. ”
You can express yourself through artistic fashion. You can paint or decorate a shirt or jeans or buy someone else’s artwork. You can express yourself through conventional tattoos.
You can express yourself through writing, drawing, singing, playing an instrument, dancing. You can express yourself through activism. You can express yourself even through sport, perhaps. There are dozens of ways to express yourself which, I contend, entails some kind of reasonably interpretable message.
Merkel Germany Elections – CWeb.com
Angela Merkel Wins! This is what a country can achieve when you back a nationalistic leader with an internationalist outlook.
The far-right is growing in Germany as well; the exit polls give us a glimpse into that. This is a trend worldwide and we have to be taking it really seriously right now. Education and culture warfare are very important.
She has moved Germany from nearing bankruptcy to the most impressive economies in the world. The youth of the country, the first time voters, who theoretically should have been tired of the incumbency factor, are her biggest strength.
It’s the elders and rurals that chose otherwise because of the unprecedented numbers of migrants that were allowed into Germany. European Union must be relieved for now.
Fascists in the German parliament for the first time since the world smashed Nazism, and another conservative government got booted.

Colorado Mad Pooper – CWEB.com
The ‘Mad Pooper’ is on the loose.
“It’s abnormal, it’s not something I’ve seen in my career,” Sgt. Johnathan Sharketti said. “For someone to repeatedly do such a thing … it’s uncharted territory for me.”
“There’s plenty of public restrooms less than a block away from where she’s targeting. This is intentional.”
Interesting story developing in Colorado Springs for those of you who are runners. A woman has been targeting specific lawns on her runs, and the Colorado Springs police are looking for her. My personal theory is that she is getting back at people who are letting their dogs go to the bathroom wherever they want on others’ lawns (and she just got fed up).
Frank Vincent Dies – CWEB.com
Though primarily known for acting, Vincent was also a musician, comedian, author and producer.
He played mobsters with total authenticity and power. I was just watching “Goodfellas” the other night and was amazed how he could steal a scene. He was also absolutely fantastic in “Raging Bull” and other movies. In “Goodfellas,” he delivered the iconic line, “Go home and get your shine box!” Rest in Peace, Frank Vincent.
