Well, I don't know much about the overall European approach, outside of what's in the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). I was under the impression that each state has their own version of privacy protections and then you can appeal up to the European Court if you feel your particular state is abusing your rights. Perhaps this is only the case for the British?

Disclaimer: Had I been doing a dissertation I would have been forced to look into this, but it was only a master's and my 2nd topic, so yea, I didn't do any more reading than I absolutely had to.

Anyhow, I felt that British privacy protections were equally spotty. Since there's no actual constitution, they're based on case law and precedent, and the legislature (up to the point of my research which was 2008) wasn't really willing to step in.

The state of privacy rights in the U.S. is pretty speckled. I wrote my thesis on U.S. and British privacy rights, as they intersect with search, seizure and surveillance prohibitions. There are multiple types of privacy policies and laws governing what information the government, law enforcement, corporations and private citizens can legally request or obtain about you.

It all boils down to the fact that privacy isn't explicitly mentioned in the Constitution. The 4th Amendment has been interpreted to include a 'right to privacy' (thanks for that Brandeis) plenty over the years, but legal precedent isn't exactly binding, especially in the face of newer 'anti-terrorist' legislation (like the PATRIOT Act).

My suggestion on where to start would be to craft legislation simply defining privacy as a right. Unless you can get the government to agree to that, you're just patching holes (which is kind of where our privacy rights are now).

There are some awesome little cafes and restaurants in Georgetown that are fun (but it's kind of a hike). Any of the Great American Restaurants are AMAZING (coastal flats, sweetwater, jacksons, etc.) There's a fun bar in Herndon that does trivia nights, Jimmys Old Town Tavern.

For a quick snack in Cville check out Jireh, also good for bubbletea. It's on 29 right east of the Walgreens and 28/66 exit. Auld Shabeen in Fairfax is good for a semi dive bar. Ummm, too many places in DC to mention, but again, kind of a hike. Good luck!!

On the drive out to Orange, VA, along 28, and then 29 and then some back roads, there are a TON of abandoned houses. There's a really iconic looking one somewhere near Culpepper on 29. You can see straight through it and it looks to be pretty old. I would take a day trip and drive around out there, you should find plenty of shots if you need more than you can find in/around FFX county.

I am also from the South and find the BBQ here a bit lacking. I suggest you do as this person says. There is never any better BBQ than you can find in the ghetto. It's true in the south, it should be true here :)

Totally true. Florida native in Fairfax county, the cost of liquor in this state is appalling and the selection you have is laughable. Every time I go home to visit, I drool in the Total Wine store over my exotic and beloved brands (sells liquor in FL).

I just don't see how this is any way better than the alternative. More choice, lower prices for what exactly? Paying the state more money for more cops on the road to pull people over during rush hour on 66 and block traffic for an hour?

I have a lot of various non-technical skills, chief among them are editing, organizing, public outreach, and herding cats. Let me know if I can be of assistance.

I used to have to be at my bus for high school at 5:30 a.m. There were definitely mornings my dad pulled me by my ankles out of bed, with all 5 of my alarms blaring, and I slept through it. He would come back a few minutes later and be amazed I was sleeping on the floor, no covers, no pillows, alarms still blaring.

Now that I'm a grown up, I still have 5 alarms, a husband, and no blinds on my windows in the hope that the light, the noise or the bitch slap will eventually get me up. Luckily, I have no standard start time at work :)

Have you been to this before? How is the pricing? Are there actual deals here like a flea market or is it a true "antiques" expo complete with absurd pricing for what amounts to old junk? Just curious on your take, for $8-10 admin I will go find out for myself anyway :)

~~And where did this glorious cat castle come from? My kitties need something like this.~~

EDIT: pardon me, I just saw the link. Carry on with kitty cuteness :)

Congrats! There's a new mom's group through Inova. I'm delivering at the Inova Fairfax Hospital (also in March), and I thought about joining one afterwards.

Nope, and this picture doesn't do the taste justice, but here you go: http://pinchmysalt.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/img_5241.jpg

Edit: The gravy has sausage in it. The spicier the sausage the better, imo. I make my gravy with butter, flour, part half & half, part skim milk and lots of black pepper. I melt the butter in the sausage fat for extra flavorings :)
