HAIR HELP.....WOMEN....
A haircut is way past due for me and I have some extra money, so I’m finally breaking down and doing it. Does anyone have any salon suggestions? I am never ever satisfied with anyone I’ve gone to. I was thinking about trying toni & guy this time. I don’t need anything crazy, just something that looks good with my face and is not trendy as hell OR gramma. Tara? Your hair is precious, what do you think? Waaaaaaaah. |

It hurts knowing this is the extent of what i can do. http://www.faithfreedom.org/Announcement/601081013.htmIran : A 17 year old girl is sentenced to death by hanging. 2006/01/08 Nazanin, 17, was sentenced to death by hanging for defending herself against three rapists. A young girl who defended herself and her chastity against three male assailants who intended to kidnap and rape her causing injury to one of them who later died in hospital was condemned to death by hanging in an Islamic court in Iran. Nazanin who has seen no more than 17 Springs, all of which under the tyrannical rule of the Mullahs is now facing execution for trying to defend herself and her honor. No where in the world and under no law self defense is considered to be a crime, but in the tyrannical mullacracy of Iran if a woman does not resist rape she will be stoned as adulterer and if she does she will be hanged. Nazanin, this young innocent girl, was assaulted by three criminal men in the West of Tehran while strolling with her niece in a park last March (2005). To defend herself she pulled out a knife and stabbed one of her assailants. The knife penetrated the ribs of her attacker who later died in the hospital. The attacks on women in Iran is so frequent that many are forced to carry a concealed weapon for self defense. Unfortunately the Islamic law does not even allow women that right. Despite the fact that she had been acting in self defense, as shown by the evidences presented and the testimony of eyewitnesses, Nazanin was sentenced to death by hanging. In the last court hearing she repeatedly said “I only defended myself and the honor of my family”. Her words fell of deaf ears and the all male jury who like their misogynist prophet thought it is outrageous for a woman to stand for her rights and defend her dignity and honor, swiftly ordered her execution. The travesty of justice in Islamic Republic of Iran is beyond description. Please send this news to all the newspapers big and small. Please do not allow this crime go unnoticed. This girl is an innocent flower in the hands of ferocious beasts. Do not allow them to nip her young life in the bud. Let us together provoke an outcry so loud that the ruling thugs in Iran can’t ignore. These criminals have no shame and don’t give a hoot to world outcry and condemnation. Nonetheless it is our duty as humans not to remain silent. Please ask your newspaper to report this story. Please write to your MP and urge the Parliament in your country to condemn the Islamic regime of Iran for their misogyny, human rights violations and crime against humanity. Please complain to the Office of High Commissioner of Human Rights tb-petitions@ohchr.org and ask them to pressure Iran to free Nazanin. You have to state your name, nationality and address if you want your petition be taken seriously. Where is Amnesty International? Why in their home page at the very top they have posted the picture of a terrorist detained in Guantánamo and no mention of Nazanin or any other political detainees rutting for years in the Islamic Republic of Iran's horrendous dungeons? Here is how to contact them: http://web.amnesty.org/contacts/contact_us/eng-000 |

photography heads
photo people.... how big of a print do you think i could get out of a 35mm negative? without losing TOO much quality? it's not a portrait, and it's oh so slightly abstract, so losing some quality will not kill it. it's b&w. and where would i get this done? also, i don't have access to a dark room at the moment. i have no clue how to get my film developed and printed somewhere else (besides walgreens--or is that acceptable?). do i just get it developed...and then choose what i want printed from a professional contact sheet? what if i don't want the whole roll printed? or do i get the whole roll printed on the regular size paper, and THEN pick ones that i want blown up? i have issues with going somewhere new and not being fully prepared. and i have a LOT of work to do in a small amount of time. any help or advise would be wonderful. thank you! |
