Ink = Terrible FilmCategory: the odes
What a waste of a good 1 hour. I realized 10 minutes into the film that I would be fast-forwarding my way through it. What I didn't realize was that even with the fast-forwarding the "slowness" of the film remains with you and drags you slowly and painfully by the tip of your smashed nose.

Question for e:lilhoCategory: opinion
I have *really* thick hair that outgrows a cut in less than 2 weeks but I am not ready for that salon pilgrimage just yet.
Do you have any recommendations for the type of thinning shears I should get? There seem to many types around but I just want one that would take all the bulk away. Thoughts?

Totally Verdi of being heard.Category: music
I am in love with this particular chorus from Nabucco. It combines two of my favourites - a waltz rhythm and a multi-voice operatic chorus.
PS: A bit too much make-up for the occasion but the singing is spectacular.

I think I now believe...Category: music
... in reincarnations. Bublé is really like Sinatra singing Baroque style (as someone else once said).
Somehow, listening to Bublé makes me wish Ella Fitzgerald were still alive to sing a duet with Bublé. And while that might not be such an outlandish wish, I also wonder about how Bublé's interpretations of Whitney Houston's most famous hits might be. I wish he would try them someday.

Bethesda - Safe at 11:00 PM?Category: opinion
I will be visiting the NIH/NCI campus in Bethesda in some days. But the trouble is I will be getting into the Washington, IAD airport around 10:00. I hate taxis. They freak me out. So I plan to take the metro to the campus from the airport. I am guessing it will be close to midnight when I make it to the Bethesda campus.
Do any of you have any ideas about how safe this area might be - say compared with Buffalo downtown at night? I really don't want to get into trouble. The conference is quite important and I want to get there and back without broken noses, blown head etc. Any information would be awesome! Thanks!
PS: According to Neighbourhood Scout
- Bethesda is safer than 62% of the cities in the US.
- Annual Crimes
Violent 42
Property 800
842 annual crimes per 1,000 residents
Chances of becoming a victim
in Bethesda 1 in 1305
in Maryland 1 in 134
PPS: Oh well. I went ahead and looked up Buffalo as well.
Buffalo is safer than 6% of the cities in the US.

Violent 3,804
Property 16,555
20,359 annual crimes per 1,000 residents
Chances of becoming a victim
in Buffalo 1 in 77
in New York 1 in 221
Man. It isn't THAT unsafe here, is it?! Do you believe this??

Thanks for the information, (e:Heidi). Very helpful. I hate having to worry about safety all the time and at these times I wish I was trained in some kind of lethal combat.

The NIH campus on Rockledge is completely car-focused. As you can see from the google map, it's tucked in the armpit of the I-270 split.

I'm pretty sure it's not possible to go from Dulles to the NIH at 10pm via Metro system. You'll need to get one of the blue flyer minivans.

I can't believe that thing has so many good reviews! I think you should give us a video demonstration.
It's got glowing reviews on Amazon :::link:::
Maybe I should try this considering every second person on Amazon has "used it for 15 years now".
I do not have one, I always just buzz cut my hair with buzz cutters.
Do you have it?! Such a kooky idea!
You mean I will be so frustrated that I might want to drill a hole in my head? :::link:::
OMG, don't do it. Everytime, I have tried to cut my own hair with scissors it turns into a disaster. You will keep trimming trying to balance it until you end up with no hair. You should get a flowbee :::link:::
hmmm, my honest reccomendation would be to not take the shears to your own head ever!!! however, if your hair is quite short, which i remember it being you can probably get some decent thinning shears a sally's beauty supply. make sure they are sharp, the sharper the better. when you thin out the hair, choose a tuft of hair under the surface so that it will not be noticable. take a small section of hair and cut from the sides not the top. when you cut from the top, you end up with lines in your hair. next time you get a cut, ask them to thin it out for you... i wish i had this issue!
