Returning Home, Big Daddy Kane Finds a Much-Changed Brooklyn - NYTimes.com
"As he strolled once more through his native Brooklyn, it was clear Big Daddy Kane had been missed. On the paths of Prospect Park and the streets of Flatbush, men of all ages did double takes, then bumped their fists against their chests in respect. A woman who came out of her store to greet him with a squeal was one of many who asked, “Where you been?” He had been in North Carolina, for nine years now. The rapper, an icon of the late ’80s hip-hop explosion, took a break from performing until promoters came calling about seven years ago, representing a new generation of fans hungry for the biggest acts of the “old school.”" - Jason Toney from Bookmarklet

Facebook sez, "Don't mind us, we're just whoring out your photos"
"All you have to do to prevent this is sign in to Facebook and click through to (get ready) -> Settings -> Privacy -> News Feed and Wall -> Facebook Ads -> Appearance in Facebook Ads and click "no one." Unless, of course, you want to be semifamous and have your picture used to push some garbage product or website without your knowledge. (note: when I tried to make this change just now, the site returned an error. oh, and it might not work in Firefox either due to a 'bug.')" - AJ Batac from Bookmarklet
Nice... The coming Facebook backlash is going to be interesting to watch. I give it 1 to 1.5 years. - mikepk
And I was surprised to see my setting set to "Appear on Facebook Ads". x_x Go here---> Settings -> Privacy -> News Feed and Wall -> Facebook Ads -> Appearance in Facebook Ads and click "no one." - AJ Batac
Interesting ownership of content rules over there, heh? - Jason Nunnelley
My Facebook Ads page is blank. Maybe because I only have my stuff opened to friends? - Anika
I disabled my AdBlock Plus to view that page Anika. - AJ Batac
Ah, okay let me try that. EDIT: Thanks! That worked. I was already selected to not appear in ads. - Anika
Good! Mine was set to appear to friends initially. Changed it to "none". - AJ Batac
Just one more reason to ignore FB. - Jeff Stannard
thanks for that tip. should be off by default, stupid thing... - Bill Kinney
Yet another reason I stay away from Facebook. Too many privacy horror stories. - Manny
bad fb. really bad. why the fcuk is this "opt-out" and not "opt-in"? - vijay
Because. - AJ Batac from iPod
heads up! ULTRA INTRUSIVE FACEBOOK ADS INCOMING! - vijay
I went to that part of the settings and this is the popup I got... "Worried about privacy? Your photos are safe. There have been misleading rumors recently about the use of your photos in ads. Don't believe them. These rumors were related to third-party applications, and not ads shown by Facebook.

Third party content as in FB apps? Big difference there, eh? - Michael W. May

Did Jessica Simpson Get Fat? [PIC]
I usually don't give a flying flip about celebrity BS, but I just wanted to say: Jessica Simpson looks HOT. To answer the question: no, she doesn't look fat to me. She looks healthy. - Steven Perez from Bookmarklet
+1 million for healthy - Michelle Martinez
i'd go buy her album now. yay' - i ♥ derrick #bellymeme
If that's fat, then I'm a zip code - Bwana ☠
Thing is, put the wrong clothes on anybody and they'll look fat. Those high waisted pants aren't a plus for curvy gals. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
NOT hot. Discussed last night here: http://friendfeed.com/e... - Anthony Citrano
I volunteer to do an inspection to get to the bottom of this - Alan Simpson
It's nice that she's put on some weight...but the jeans in these pictures aren't very flattering. - Jon, the Beartato of FF
lol @alan.. - i ♥ derrick #bellymeme
LOL @ Abby Martin - I know, right? I can just imagine how she feels today, poor thing - Cheryl Allin from twhirl
I think she looks lovely. She looks...normal. - tinypants - Hagitha of FF
Yeah, those jeans are unfortunate, but you can take the fit thing to an extreme. EX: Angelina Jolie in WANTED. - Steven Perez from IM
Angelina Jolie was in Wanted? I just remember this floating talking gun with eyeballs - Bwana ☠
Still hawt! - AJ Batac
Looks good. - Bob Gannon
She looks hot! Maybe the clothes are for a movie role? I wonder if it really is Jess though? - BEX
LOL!! +10000 to Bwana! - Steven Perez
@Amanda: and we all know how hot "normal" is. - Anthony Citrano
she's never been one of those stick-skinny celebs, but there's no denying she's let herself go. and yeah, she's overweight. most of us are. who cares. - Jasmin Smith
she's definitely put on weight. but SO WHAT? i've put on weight just sitting at this computer tonight. .LOLz - .LAG liked that
To answer the "so what" question: because the title of the article bears inspection. The title was not "Does Jessica Simpson look good?" or "What was she thinking wearing those jeans?" - the question is "Did Jessica Simpson get fat?" Which, when one considers it, strikes home at what we as the public believe is "fat". We're bombarded 24/7 by images of what fat is or isn't, so much so that it shapes our own view of ourselves and the people around us. I've never been a fan of people who obsessively ... - Steven Perez
workout in an effort to chase an ideal that is not only unobtainable, but frankly, unhealthy. - Steven Perez
For recent reference of how what we think of as "beauty" is shaped, whether we realize it or not, I refer you to the Faith Hill Redbook Photoshop debacle from two years ago: http://jezebel.com/gossip... - Steven Perez
@steven: when you put it that way—no, she has not gotten 'fat,' however you'd like to define that term. - .LAG liked that
Wait, Steven, wait - we're unhealthy because we strive for thinness?? Because our view of what's fat is messed up? Au contraire, mon vieux: we're unhealthy because we're really, really fucking fat. So, whatever we're striving for - obtainable or not - it ain't working. - Anthony Citrano
And in my view, it's perfectly legitimate to comment on the physical appearance of celebrities who aggressively market themselves as sex symbols. - Anthony Citrano
No, you miss the point. Fat has nothing to do with this, in so far as the selling of a concept is what's in question. As for the reasons why people are overweight, that goes to the average American diet that is made most affordable for consumption, which is a conversation for another time. - Steven Perez from IM
Did she get a boob job? - Mona Nomura
I'm slightly embarassed to admit that I read the article, and it says that Simpson's physique in the "before" picture is the result of working with a personal trainer TWO HOURS A DAY, SIX DAYS A WEEK. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowb... - Daniel J. Pritchett
Damn - edumacted via FriendFeed AGAIN. ;) Good lucks, Musgrave. You always got my back... WAY back. - Mona Nomura
@Steven: If fat has nothing to do with it, why did you ask if she was fat, then say you thought she was hot not fat, then comment about our warped societal views about what is fat, and finally, say that it's unhealthy we obsess over what is fat or what isn't? That's an awful lot of fat talk for kicking off a conversation that has nothing to do with fatness. - Anthony Citrano
i am going on my bike now. - i ♥ derrick #bellymeme
Because the deeper question has to do with marketing and the selling of the idea of fat. Once you drill down long enough, you realize that the top layer - "is she fat" - reveals a deeper truth about what we consider "fat'. - Steven Perez from IM
She's not fat; she's thick in the right places. And, those pants are terrible. - Mike Nayyar
In other words, more a philosophical question of our own outlook rather than just remarking whether or not a person has gained weight and is poorer for it. - Steven Perez
I'm sorry if I got too deep on this, Anthony, but that's the way my brain works. - Steven Perez
And for the record: NOT a big Jessica Simpson fan. :) - Steven Perez
Mommy Pants? GAH! - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
I don't think you got too deep, I just disagree with you. I, for one, think America could use quite a bit more fat-obsessing; our obliviousness on this issue is literally killing us. And I think conversations like this one expose our collective social psychosis on the matter. - Anthony Citrano
Now we're back to "normal" again - as if that's some barometer for what is hot. For me, it ain't; in fact, quite the opposite. But that's me; if "normal" floats your boat, that's fine. On the upside: the world is full of it, so it sure does make curating one's life a lot easier. - Anthony Citrano
Everyone is right. We obsess over fat. I could throw Jessica Simpson across a room, yet she is being called fat. If SHE is fat, what's normal? At the same time, we live sedentary lifestyles and eat garbage all day long. We think exercise is optional. As far as body image goes, Americans are pretty screwed. - Rahsheen ™, Coach of FF
She went from a 2 to a size 8. She is not fat. - Melissa
She came out with a Country album - she's got the look! - Robyn Hawk
Spidra, link not viewable. - ld
I like her all chubby like - €€€€€€€€
For the record, when I said she looks normal, I meant that I see nothing wrong with the way she looks. There's nothing abnormal about her appearance. Gaining some weight doesn't make her any less pretty. It just shows how superficial and shallow some people can be. - tinypants - Hagitha of FF
she's a hot size 12 (or more) and she was a hot size 6 (or less). she gained so much weight I had to verify that it was actually her.. then wondered if she was pregnant. Rapid weight gain not healthy. killing yourself in the gym isn't healthy either. - Jasmin Smith
When I stop eating I'm mean, angry & hungry. She looks amazing no matter what size she is. She looks happy. - @CrystalinaB
Until we disconnect the fat conversation and the healthy conversation it's just one group of people using a superficial standard to judge another group of people to boost their own self worth. Everyone, thin, fat, anywhere in between, who is able, needs to exercise daily, or near it. Everyone needs to eat healthfully & mindfully without obsessing. I know people who weigh 350+ who are triatheletes, and thin folks with type 2 diabetes and heart disease. It's what you do, not what you look like. - Alix Whitmire
Spidra, I would hit it (in both sizes) LOL. - ld
++++@alix: well said! - .LAG liked that
The man called her a water buffalo =0X - @CrystalinaB
If she's fat, that's BS. She has to find clothes that fit her better. She looks fine. - ::Kristen::
Remember, I was the only one who likes her chubby now - €€€€€€€€
Honestly I could give a crap what size she is, or what size anybody thinks she is. Never been interested in her in the slightest, and frankly I'm sick of this obsession trash rags like Perez Hilton and The Superficial have who do nothing but talk about how much someone weighs, while they choke down a bag of powdered donuts in their mothers basement. Fuck those assholes. If Jessica wants a sandwich, fucking give the girl a sandwich. :P - Haggis (Sean Loyless)
She looks pretty voluptuous, which to me is never a bad thing... - Paula W
She's a hottie! - Nia
yeah, can't really say she isn't cute - Peter Efland
She didn't get fat but she has unquestionably gained a few pounds, I like my ladies to have curves but too be honest I prefer her in the skinny version, her face is lots prettier. Thats not superficial thats the way I feel. I heard somewhere that half the England Rugby team are technically obese as they are 25stone+ but they are most certainly not fat let alone obese. - Toby Graham
health doesn't strictly follow a weight graph. I keep telling all these people that obsess over calories that there's more to eating right than the amount of calories you take in. Ignore them and try to eat a varied range (including fatty and carb heavy because that's the best source of energy for the body) and then, most importantly *be active*. If you get on the bus to work why not jog tot he next stop down? Or if it's already a decent distance just jog to that one. Use the stairs more and elevator less. - alphaxion
it's easy to figure out little ways of spending energy. Jiggle your legs up and down while sat down.. Any diet that says "I'm not allowed that" is a bad diet! Also, reduce your portions. If you get a big portion, leave some on the plate! - alphaxion
