    It's been discovered that Jason Russell, the director of the viral video on Ugandan war lord Joseph Kony, may have connections to rightwing antigay organizations. But that's not his only problem — he was detained Thursday by San Diego police for masturbating in public. Russell, 33, is the founder of Invisible Children, a nonprofit organization that produces films to educate people on global issues such as environmentalism and human rights. He was arrested Thursday after allegedly vandalizing several cars and masturbating in the streets while possibly being under the influence of alcohol or drugs, police told NBC San Diego. Lt. Andra Brown said, "Due to the nature of the detention, he was not arrested. During the evaluation, we learned we probably needed to take him to a medical facility because of statements he was saying." Russell's business partner, Invisible Children CEO Ben Keesey, said Russell has been under an immense amount of stress since the release ofKony 2012. "Jason Russell was unfortunately hospitalized yesterday suffering from exhaustion, dehydration, and malnutrition," he said in a statement Thursday. "He is now receiving medical care and is focused on getting better. The past two weeks have taken a severe emotional toll on all of us, Jason especially, and that toll manifested itself in an unfortunate incident yesterday." For & Against with Jim Morrison, a news magazine on Here TV (a network that's part of Here Media, which owns The Advocate), reviewed the documentary, pointing out Invisible Children's ties to antigay organizations, such as the National Christian Foundation. The NCF describes itself as "the largest Christian grant-making foundation in the world." Truth Wins Out reports that the organization has disbursed grants to some of the most antigay groups in the country, including Focus on the Family and the Family Research Council. Ironically, NCF, which donated $135,000 in 2009 to Invisible Children, also helps fund the Fellowship Foundation, which works in conjunction with the fundamentalist shadow organization known as “The Family.” That outfit has largely pushed Christian Ugandan lawmakers to propose a "kill the gays" bill, which would make homosexuality punishable by death. Invisible Children's tax records also show several churches, private religious schools, and religious organizations like Legacy of a Christian Vision, and the antigay, antiabortion Malachai Foundation. Other donors include several public schools, secular organizations, and liberal individual donors, as well as celebrities like Oprah Winfrey and NFL player Jamal Williams. Russell was also an invited guest of Liberty University, a staunchly Christian college, where he told students about how to use "extremely low-key, or stealth evangelism," Alternet reports. Morrison also points out that while the film does shed light to an issue that many people around the world are unaware of, the film is an incomplete look at the egregious human rights violations that have occurred in Uganda and across Africa. Ugandan president Yoweri Museveni, Morrison says, is equally to blame for the deaths of thousands, as well as forcing children to become soldiers. http://www.advocate.com/News/Daily_News/20...Antigay_Groups/

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/rf/image_606w/WashingtonPost/Content/Blogs/blogpost/201203/Images/GlennaGordonInvisibleChildrenA.jpg ~ <3 rich white kids <3 ~ But, of course, I am all for awareness of the situation, so I'm a little conflicted to how to feel about the whole situation. If I donate, I'll probably try to find some other organization though. I don't trust Invisible Children at all. Also, considering how long this has gone on for, and how the LRA is apparently not even very active anymore from what I've read (?), this all feels way too late and kind of manipulative.
  10. I wasn't expecting to qualify. :o I knew SBTRKT had failed before (though I do think Pharaohs is so lush and his best work by far). If BJSC was in 1990 I would have been numba one just sayin ~*~*~ Couldn't find a winner this competition so I just picked something good. Just glad Azari & III got through. Best song of the competition. Bummed about Desire though...Under Your Spell is so good. Anything on Italians Do It Better is.
  11. Re~listening to Radioactive. It's so lush. Really one of the best pop songs of the last year.
  12. LOVE it she reminds me a lot of pictureplane here for some reason
  13. I really like Radioactive. :o (why!)
  14. Amazing album. One Second of Love was originally going to be my entry for BJSC, sorta wish I kept it after seeing the video. She's incredible though. Her older material is incredible, but her newer stuff showcases that she sounds just as amazing high-def. She's a magic witch.
  15. Carmen's easily the best song on the album.
  16. I really like Homewrecker. :o
  17. whoever entered reckless w/ your love i love you that is one of the best songs ever wish i was in your semi!!!

    Definitely agree. Makes me mad that Tree of Life won't win. That was one of the best pieces of cinema I've seen in a really long time (my friend on the other hand walked out after 30 minutes calling it "pretentious crap" — their loss). Shame was probably the second best film I saw this year. I did think Hugo was really sweet though, and that's getting a lot of awards. Other than that, snooze.

  20. We Are Young is terrible. I do not see the appeal. )~:
  21. It's all like that. He's really incredible. He's great on record but his live shows are on a whole other level. He has like 7-8 looping pedals. It's insane, he's possibly my favorite guitarist. Grebo, you should listen to his last band Ponytail if you like this. :o Y_tQxUF49UM beZ5F_GO-Mg

Route Through Eyebrow 11. Sprinkle Wet Toes 12. Pencil Drove Hill Moon 13. Evening Curves Straight 14. Back Towards Night 15. Space Tunnel Graffiti 16. Diagonally Talking Echo Based on an acid trip he had (I believe). One of the best albums of the year thus far.
  23. ~ went proper indie for this :o ~ (well still poppy, but i'm preppin 4 dnq)
  24. I love her so much. I've been watching videos of her for the past like half an hour. She's basically me I sort of have decided? Grew up on Zelda / Neopets / fantasies. She's so amazing and genuine.
