Ada News Staff
The Ada News
Center — A Stratford toddler died from injuries she received in a three-vehicle wreck Tuesday evening.
The crash occurred eight miles west of Ada on state Highway 19 just after 5 p.m. Oklahoma Highway Patrol Trooper Tyler Jack said 22-month-old Reagan Mitchell of Stratford was pronounced dead at Valley View Regional Hospital where she was taken after the wreck.
Jack said Mitchell was a passenger in a 2011 jeep driven by 23-year-old Whitney Griffith of Stratford. The crash occurred when Griffith, driving west, slammed into the back of a stopped 2009 Honda driven by 28-year-old Sara Woods of Ada, according to Jack. Woods, also westbound, stopped to make a left turn when the crash occurred.
The impact of the collision caused the Jeep to overturn and land in the eastbound lane where it was struck by an eastbound 2010 Kenworth semi truck. Griffith was taken to Valley View Regional Hospital with internal injuries.
Woods was taken by personal vehicle to Chickasaw Nation Medical Center in Ada where she was treated and released. The driver of the semi, 35-year-old Patrick Sanders of Tuskahoma, was taken by Valley View EMS where he was treated and released.
Jack listed her as stable. Jack said the cause of the collision is still under investigation and seat belts and a car seat were in use.

What are some of the interesting trends, people or places to watch closely in the next few months? Nobody knows for sure. That said, here are some that have caught our attention.
One of Puerto Vallarta's most popular streets in El Centro, Basilio Badillo has certainly endured its ups and downs. It was known several years ago as La Calle de los Cafes, or Cafe Row, due to the high number of such establishments. This number has declined; however, Basilio Badillo has remained a strong magnet for shoppers, largely due to a few businesses with strong staying power, such as Galleria Dante and Cassandra Shaw Jewelry, in the block between I. Vallarta and Constitucion, and Café de Olla and Freddy's Tucan, closer to Los Muertos Beach. These last two eateries, along with newcomers Nacho Daddy and Pianeta Gelato, received high marks in this year's VirtualVallarta.com Readers' Choice Award. This fact, combined with a couple new galleries that will be open to the public by the time you read this, could easily trigger a major boom for the entire neighborhood.
Over the years, various mayors have promised to relocate the City Hall offices and convert the space to an art museum with a multi-use area. For assorted reasons, including the lack of funding and a comprehensive plan that satisfies the various local cultural sectors, this goal has remained unmet.
However, in September current Mayor Salvador Gonzalez Resendiz announced that space for the new City Hall offices has been acquired in the Portales neighborhood and the first stone has already been laid. So, we can expect that various government offices will begin operations in the new space in 2011 and the new art museum will become a reality the same year.
The Jalisco Secretary of Tourism has announced that the pier on Los Muertos Beach will be remodeled as part of a project that also includes the piers at Boca de Tomates, Mismaloya and Las Animas, the entire project to cost around $25 million pesos. In the '60s, Los Muertos pier was a simple wooden structure, but with the town's growing needs, a concrete one was built to accommodate today's fishermen and the small boats servicing South Shore areas accessible only by sea. According to the governor of Jalisco, the remodeling will be finished by the end of 2011. The work will include an extension to satisfy increased demand.
We are big on this one, so we'll be bringing it up frequently. If there is any truth in the caveat "Be careful what you wish for," maybe it is time we let go of the terms "high season" and "low season" for good, in favor of the more positive "winter season" and "summer season." After all, they do say the power of intention is strong!
While Starbucks has helped increase traffic in this small but elegant shopping plaza during the daytime, the popular BarraBar has accomplished the same thing for the late night shift. Now that deSantos, another popular evening spot, is relocating to the plaza and joining some of the other popular eateries there, this area could easily become the trendiest spot in town.

The product was of high quality and the imprint was beautiful
Quality and reasonable price
Fast service; thank you!
The logo imprint was what I liked the most.
The blue baby blankets do not match the blue hats we previously ordered from Branders. We want to give the hat and blanket together as a set as a gift and do not do so because they are two different color blues. Like Organic cotton.
I loved the blanket, unfortunately decided we wanted smaller quantity than minimum order
Great item! We gave it away at a recent moms-only team-building workshop. Colors are too light though.

As the 2013 legislative session kicked off Monday in Des Moines, two Ottumwa organizations began preparing for three legislative forums this spring.
The forums, sponsored by the Ottumwa Area Chamber of Commerce and the League of Women Voters of Ottumwa, have been a staple in Ottumwa's political discussion for several years.
Area state representatives and senators compose the panel, which fields questions from the public about anything they're tackling in the Iowa Legislature.
"I encourage as many individuals, businesses and organizations to attend as possible," said Terry McNitt, executive director of the chamber. "This year I know there are a lot of topics on the table that are going to affect a lot of people.
"If you don't attend, if you don't take part, if you don't ask questions ... it's your fault. If something happens and it doesn't go your way, you're part of the fault."
During the first forum, legislators usually give the public an update on what has happened in the legislature in the past month.
"This year I'm expecting again a lot of the bigger areas they talked about last year: mental health, education, tax reform," McNitt said. "Those affect all of us."
Legislative attendees at last year's forums included state Sens. Mark Chelgren, R-Ottumwa, and Sandy Greiner, R-Keota, and state Reps. Mary Gaskill, D-Ottumwa, Curt Hanson, D-Fairfield, as well as former state Rep. Kurt Swaim, D-Bloomfield.
"It has a big impact, talking to your legislators," McNitt said. "You have a personal, one-on-one impact on the outcome. It's going to be an interesting year. There are going to be some long, hard-fought battles."
McNitt said he's enjoyed partnering with the LWV because they have solid rules that keep the forum moving and give everyone a chance to speak.
As attendees file into the room, they are given a number if they want to ask a question. Throughout the forum, the numbers will be called in order, the person will have an allotted time to speak and then each legislator will have a chance to respond.
"I think it's a great thing to have because it gives us a local voice," McNitt said. "A couple years ago we had the gas tax on the table and that's back when prices were very high. Though a lot of us feel that it's not high because it's below $3, it's still high. Everything we do depends on fuel ... heating, cooling. I think this year they'll be putting the gas tax on the table again.
"The last time when it was on the table, we had a very strong crowd because a lot of people are impacted when they throw more tax on the pumps."
McNitt has his own questions and requests from his legislators. He wants them to work on new, revenue-generating projects, as well as examining "how they divide things up, who gets cut and who gets the money."
"They can't just keep taxing people and taxing people," he said. "The money's got to come from somewhere, but they haven't figured out where it's going to come from yet."
Legislative forums
The first Saturday of February, March and April (Feb. 2, March 2 and April 6)
9:30-11 a.m.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - The Western Kentucky Hilltoppers finally
have gotten the mighty Kentucky Wildcats of the Southeastern
Conference to come play a game on their home turf.
Turns out that home-field advantage is just a short drive away
in Nashville.
The Hilltoppers played in Lexington in 2008 and 2010. Now they
open this season Thursday night against Kentucky at LP Field, home
of the NFL's Tennessee Titans, in Nashville as part of a four-game
contract. Western Kentucky has charter buses bringing fans down
from Bowling Green.
Coach Willie Taggart is expecting the Hilltoppers to color the
stadium red. He says it's big for Western Kentucky to put on a good
showing knowing Kentucky always travels well. He says that's why
they picked LP Field for their home site in this game.

ArtStreet presents The Global Challenge
This spring semester, experience ArtStreet through a fully immersed artistic interrogation of what it means to be a truly Global Campus. Turn community into an action with University of Dayton students, staff and faculty as we hope to unify the vocabulary, the perspectives, and the possibilities for a 21st century university.
With the goal that the ever expanding global world no longer is something distant and non-affecting but rather all about YOU and YOUR own place as future leaders, ArtStreet challenges you to break international and intercultural barriers so that YOU can make your voice heard in the new Global Conversation.
1World Celebration
Friday April 19
7-11 p.m. ArtStreet Amphitheatre (Rainsite: McGinnis Center)
Intercultural Walk to 1World begins from Caldwell Apartments at 7 p.m.
1 night. 1 world. 1 campus. A culminating celebration of ArtStreet's semester-long Global Challenge that looks to champion the worldly embrace of the 21st century University of Dayton through diverse parade, food, fashion, music and performance. The event is free and open to the public.
UPDATE: Due to the weather, 1World Celebration will be held inside the McGinnis Center (next to ArtStreet). The intercultural walk will go on as originally planned.
Musical performances, presented in collaboration with Cityfolk, will feature sounds from around the world: Michael Bashaw and Puzzle of Light (jazz/world music), Son del Caribe (salsa), Seefari (reggae), and Michael Kotur (blues).
"This is a celebration of the campus, a celebration of everyone who makes up the diverse student body and administration," said Brian LaDuca, director of ArtStreet. "Not every university can match the unique global structure the University of Dayton has, and we want to celebrate the student from China and the student from Detroit, the fraternity brother and the non-Greek student who are all living and experiencing this 21st century campus."
The celebration will kick off with the "Intercultural Walk to 1World" through the south student neighborhood to engage and lead the student population to ArtStreet where they will be greeted by the awe-inspiring Cityfolk-produced musical performances. The evening will continue with a one-of-a-kind Greek Crash — a large-scale Greek Life step-and-stroll through the ArtStreet grounds.
An outdoor fashion show, "Culture Couture: A Fashion Runway," will showcase the stories of both domestic and international students as they model both traditional and current trends that reflect their own cultural backgrounds. Student DJs will battle each other through World Sounds and Global Beats at either end of the runway throughout this one-of-a-kind fashion exploration.
Reintroducing topics from workshops held throughout the semester, interactive booths will line the ArtStreet plaza with henna art, traditional Chinese brush painting, and tastes of food from around the world including Middle Eastern, Latino and the Great American Diner Breakfast. Interspersed moments of musical storytelling will feature some of the University's most popular student artists, such as Dave Zup and the 2013 Battle of the Bands winner, Lauren Eylise, in an unplugged setting.
The evening will end with a global release of nearly 100 Thai paper lanterns into the Dayton sky with a student-created poem celebrating the unique global diversity of the University of Dayton.
Wednesday Workshops
These weekly hands-on workshops, taught by students, faculty, staff and visiting artists, will immerse participants in an intercommunity experience specifically celebrating diversity through the culinary arts, visual arts and fashion. Learn more about Wednesday Workshops >>
Friday Film Series
The Spring 2013 ArtStreet Friday Film Series will focus on this Global Challenge, inviting faculty and campus partners to build a series that explores the current social perspective on international, intercultural, and communal engagement in the 21st century. Films will be screened weekly at 8 p.m. with refreshments, guest hosts and brief post-film discussions. Learn more about the Friday Film Series >>
Studio D Gallery
Come challenge your current and historical perspective of the UD and Dayton community through the eyes and minds of local artists Joel Whitaker and Jud Yalkut, graduating fine arts students and the history of Orpheus (UD's student art and literary magazine). View complete gallery schedule >>
The Creative Culture Exchange
Through the classic salon format of discussion and debate, Dayton and the UD campus come together to exchange creative thought on the current challenges we face as the competition for artistic expression and audiences continues to rise. Hosted by Brian LaDuca, ArtStreet Director.
Why create cross-cultural experiences?
Tuesday February 26, 7 p.m. ArtStreet Studio B
with RoNita Hawes Saunders and Ed Valles, Dayton Contemporary Dance Company and Kathleen Alter and Jean Howat Berry, Cityfolk
Join two of Dayton's leading arts organizations as they outline the successes, challenges and failures of producing diverse art and promoting cross-cultural experiences in today's 21st century world.
Why don't you go to the theater?
Tuesday March 12, 7 p.m. ArtStreet Studio C (Please note change in date)
Brian LaDuca (ArtStreet Director) moderates the conversation with David Brush (former executive director of Encore Theater Company), Kevin Moore (producing artistic director of Human Race Theatre Company) and artistic leaders from the New York Theatre Barn and Bailiwick Chicago Theatre Company (via Skype) as they look to identify the social and cultural shifts of the new generation of theatergoers, if only to see IF there is a new generation of theatergoers.
UPDATE: Due to last minute casting issues, FUGITIVE SONGS will not be performed.
Where is the poetry?
Tuesday April 2, 7 p.m. ArtStreet Studio C
in conjunction with the University of Dayton's LitFest
Posing the question, "Where is the poetry?" join Albino Carrillo (professor, Department of English), Jonterri Gadson (Herbert W. Martin Creative Writing Fellow), Herbert Martin (professor emeritus), Thomas Morgan (assistant professor, Department of English) and poets from Sinclair Community College as they challenge the current voice and soul of Dayton's poetry and creative writing. Be part of a salon that will look deep into the cultural effect of Dayton's place in contemporary poetry.
ArtStreet Experience Course
During the Spring 2013 semester, ArtStreet Residents will be presented a 1World Menu of topical Global Challenges that look to question their current roles as citizens in the ever-expanding UD community. This menu will list options of study for each house that centers on international, intercultural, and communal engagement with the goal of creating a 'melting pot' of universal study. Using art as a catalyst for discussion and presentation centered on each house 1World Menu selection, the ArtStreet family will experience and reflect on each other educated journey through this diverse world they are learning in.

"The Love, Hope & Pizza campaign has become something we are known for in the restaurant and franchising industries and we are so proud of what we have accomplished over the last several years," said Jeff Rinke, vice president of marketing.
Throughout the month at all participating locations, all pizzas will be served in bright pink boxes emblazoned with breast cancer awareness ribbons instead of the classic HungryHowie's yellow boxes. Customers can add a $1 donation to their Hungry Howie's order, which will go directly to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.
Donors will receive a pink Love, Hope & Pizza wristband bracelet as a token of appreciation.
Hungry Howie's will also in October make a donation to the foundation for every new Facebook fan, for every breast cancer story fans share on the Hungry Howie's Facebook page, and for every tweet using the hashtag #lovehopepizza. Hungry Howie's Facebook fans can also make a donation to the National Breast Cancer Foundation through the Facebook page, and the brand will be giving out free pizzas on social media on three days throughout October.
The Brighton Hungry Howies is located at 603 W Grand River Ave.

Despite the weak economy, U.S. cities are continuing and expanding their green building programs, says a new survey by the American Institute of Architects (AIA).
More than one in five U.S. cities with populations greater than 50,000 that were surveyed report having a policy to promote green buildings. The programs potentially affect more than 53 million people, some one-sixth of the total U.S. population.
The new report is an update to a study first conducted in 2007, "Local Leaders in Sustainability." The new report, entitled, "Green Building Policy in a Changing Economic Environment," is an inventory of policies and best practices intended to help policymakers advance a more sustainable legislative agenda for growth and development, according to AIA.
Among the highlights of the report are:
The report also contains a number of recommendations for cities to develop successful green building programs. These include:
"It is encouraging that cities are recognizing the economic benefits of energy-efficient buildings, and equally encouraging that the number of programs across the country are increasing despite such difficult economic conditions," said Christine McEntee, AIA executive vice president/CEO. "Our ultimate goal is to achieve carbon neutrality in buildings by 2030 and that all design projects will be sustainable as a matter of course."

A Salty Saga
NEWARK, Mar 30 2010
M/Y Vivere—the elegant, 116-foot Azimut luxury yacht owned by NJIT overseer and alum Phil Rinaldi, '68—stormed across New York Harbor, threatening Staten Island this month. Fortunately, Rinaldi has not turned into a menace to society, Vivere provided the set for the forthcoming television season opener of Law and Order: Criminal Intent. As Rinaldi tells it, "The story line is an odd one: The boat's owner wants to hunt pirates off the coast of Somalia. Staten Island plays the part of Somalia and my yacht, Vivere—which means "to live"—was chosen by L&O to portray this questionable adventure. Vivere spends a lot of time cruising around Manhattan and docking at Chelsea Piers where Law & Order studios are located, it did not take Law & Order's scouts long to spy Vivere. Hence, she would temporarily abandon her gentle and sybaritic life to become a pirate hunter. The producers outfitted the yacht with turret-mounted machine guns, AK 47s, rocket-propelled grenade launchers, and a bevy of bikini-clad girls. I had no idea that hunting pirates would be so much fun." Mark your logs, mates: The season opener launches on the USA Network March 30.

You can enjoy the amazing ocean view at Point Bonita Lighthouse, and take a quick drive to see the gorgeous Golden Gate Bridge. You can also visit the charming Sausalito in the evening. The hostel staff was very helpful and friendly. But I didn't appreciate the group on one night who was taking over the whole kitchen as if it belongs to them. They need to remember there are other guests who would like to use it. "

Boston Celtics' Jason Collins poses during Celtics NBA basketball media day at the team's training facility in Waltham, Mass., Friday, Sept. 28, 2012.
34-year-old NBA center Jason Collins made headlines Monday morning when he came out as gay, the first openly gay athlete in major professional team sports in America. Collins told his story in the newest issue of Sports Illustrated.
"I'm a 34-year-old NBA center. I'm black. And I'm gay," Collins says in the opening of the piece he co-wrote with Franz Lidz for Sports Illustrated.
The web reacted immediately, from teammates to politicians and more.

Two students on a school bus and the driver of a car were transported to Reston Hospital Center after the car collided with a Fairfax County Public Schools bus on Thursday morning.
The bus was carrying students heading to Dogwood Elementary School when it was rear-ended on South Lakes Court near Escalante Court shortly after 8 a.m., said Fairfax County Police public information officer Don Gotthardt.
The driver of the sedan was traken to the hospital with non life-threatening injuries, Gotthardt said. Two students were also taken as a precaution, but did not have obvious injuries, he said.
The accident was cleared by 9:45 a.m. and another school bus delivered the rest of the students to school.

When viewing a picture of a lithe, pointy-nosed fairy with Asiatic eyes or a smarmy leprechaun spinning on his head while balancing a pickax on his index finger, most Californians born after 1970 will probably recognize the work of Brian Froud, co-creator of Faeries, the first coffee-table picture book to give wings to grotesque toads and areolae to tall fairy queens. Even if you don't have one of Froud's whimsical characters tattooed on your ankle, I'm guessing that if you live in the Bay Area, you're probably a fan. Froud celebrates the 25th anniversary of Faerieswith a silver edition featuring new artwork and ruminations by himself and fellow artist Alan Lee. This year also marks the release of Froud's much-anticipated Lady Cottington's Fairy Album, which continues the tale of renowned fairy-squisher Angelica Cottington, who was introduced nine years ago in Lady Cottington's Pressed Fairy Book. While the new volume -- a photo collection purportedly left for Angelica by her mysterious older sister Euphemia -- will never hold a firefly lantern to Faeries, it outshines the Pressed Fairy Book. Combining the "aged" photographs and carefully penned diary entries of Euphemia with the signature splat marks left by the captured imps, the Fairy Albumoffers texture, delight, and a few surprises. Brian Froud reads and signs books on Wednesday, Oct. 30, at Booksmith (1644 Haight at Cole) at 7 p.m. Admission is free; call 863-8688. He also appears at an in-store Halloween party on Thursday, Oct. 31, at Dark Carnival (3086 Claremont in Berkeley) at 5:30 p.m. Admission is free; call (510) 654-1323.
As a teen, I lived in a household largely comprised of terribly witty, tremendously fey British goths. One late night, while languishing over a glass of absinthe, one of them surveyed my preference for ferocity in both music and mien. "Some people choose rage to mask their sorrow," he said. "Anger is dynamic, authoritative, and potent; sadness is sleepy at best and empty at least. You made the right choice." That particular housemate didn't make it in the end, and it would be another full decade before I discovered the part-truth in his words. The gentle thaw began, as he thought it would, with music, embodied by the voices of Billie Holiday, Lotte Lenya, Bryan Ferry, Little Jimmy Scott, Nina Simone, Edith Piaf, Nick Cave, Marianne Faithfull, Scott Walker, Leonard Cohen, and Chet Baker. It may take all those artists and more to make an ear ready for Antony & the Johnsons. Antony Johnson, a pale boy born in England, raised in Silicon Valley, and edified in New York City, has a natural tenor that could break a less tempered heart within the space of two small syllables. His is a voice for which torches are lit (and dutifully extinguished with tears); it is a secular instrument that touches on the sublime, reaching through the firmament while plumbing the depths of anyone within earshot.
Drawing on his experimental theater training from New York University, transformation artistry culled from years on the Manhattan drag queen circuit, and an internal compass for the perversely primogenital, Johnson frequently appears onstage looking like an albino saint who has fallen back to Earth. Wispy gowns and angelic white face-paint accentuate an effete form and unsophisticated awkwardness that belie the power of his voice. "I am very happy/ So please hit me/ I am so very, very happy/ So please hurt me/ I'll grow back like a starfish," he sings softly on "Cripple and the Starfish," clinging to his lyrics as a child might embrace his tormentor. "God visits all lost souls/ To survey the damage/ And holding his bleeding heart/ A tear comes to his eye," Johnson howls on "The Atrocities," amid the delicate, dark twinkle of his small backing orchestra of violins, cello, bass, piano, and drums. Despite the naked tragedy of his lyrics, it is Johnson's voice, not his vocabulary, that makes one's chest heave. During live shows, he alleviates such deliberate vulnerability with the help of longtime creative partner Johanna Constantine, a performance artist with a deep appreciation for the defensive principles of sex and violence, and Dr. Julia Yasuda, a hermaphrodite mathematician from Manchuria who appears as the perfect "synthesis of dualities." Still, in spite of dissociative theatrical contrivances, world-weary hipsters should beware: Diamanda Galás, Lou Reed, Laurie Anderson, and the MC5's Wayne Kramer all agree that Johnson will break your heart. Antony & the Johnsons perform on Friday, Nov. 1, at Cafe Du Nord with Faun Fables opening at 9 p.m. Tickets are $14; call 861-5016.
Collaborating with a host of international vocalists, the London-based electronic duo known as Swayzak has trumped the adventurous exploration of techno dub poetry and ethereal trance music on 2000's Himawariwith the brilliant new collection of highly techy futurist pop Dirty Dancing. From the drone and shimmer of "Make Up Your Mind" to the despondent synth fatalism of "Buffalo Seven," every song on Dirty Dancingshould and could be released as a single, and any two songs would be worth the price of admission. Swayzak performs on Saturday, Nov. 2, at the Justice League with Chessie, Nein Volt, Singer, Broker/ Dealer, and DJ (and SF Weeklywriter) Philip Sherburne at 9 p.m. Tickets are $10-12; call 440-0409.

The Sabres got a huge win last night in Boston and are still alive in the playoff race with the New York Rangers coming to town Friday (after hosting the Florida Panthers tonight in Madison Square Garden).
The team had a brief, 20-minute workout today in Amherst and will fully turn to the Rangers in video sessions and their pregame skate Friday morning. But it was basically impossible today to not reflect on last night's emotional shootout win over the Bruins, an event that is the talk of the nation and far transcends sports in the wake of the bombings at the Boston Marathon.
"It was probably the most emotional game I've ever been a part of for so many reasons," said Steve Ott. "The way the Boston fans and community with what they've been going through, it's obviously been a horrific 2-3 days now. For them to come out there and cheer and put some smiles on their faces for a couple hours is the least we could do to try to battle for the fans and show the pride of both teams."
"I had chills just looking around," Lynnfield, Mass., native Brian Flynn said of the fans-led national anthem. "I don't think there was one person in the stands that wasn't singing."
Added interim coach Ron Rolston: "It was an amazing night. It was a great tribute for the people of Boston. I know for our guys and certainly the staff, it was really a great event to be part of."
Click below to hear audio from Ott, Flynn and Rolston. Plenty of talk about the Boston game and some about the keys to the Sabres somehow staying alive in the playoff race in the face of all their deals at the trade deadline and their injuries.

A 17-year old girl was injured Monday afternoon when she and two others were ejected from a jet ski on Lake Manawa in Council Bluffs.
The girl, Kristen Gerhardt, bumped her head against another passenger while the three were thrown off the jet ski. The Department of Natural Resources says they were making a sharp turn when they were ejected. It happened about 3pm.
Gerhardt is being treated at Jennie Edmunson Hospital. All three teens were wearing life jackets.

Live-Blogging the HBO TCA Presentation, Part 2
July 10, 2008 4:30 PM
Back again after an interview with Richard Plepler and Michael Lombardo, we join the HBO presentation, already in progress.
4 p.m.-4:33 p.m.: The "Generation Kill" panel has been going strong while we were away. I assume there's been talk of shooting people. "Kill" premieres Sunday.
4:42 p.m.: Sorry I missed this panel. These folks look like they were having a hoot talking about "Kill."
4:43 p.m.: "Thank You, Mr. President: Helen Thomas at the White House" is up next. Ms. Thomas is not here—she's been sick. Director Rory Kennedy is here.
4:49 p.m.: Ms. Kennedy says the veteran White House correspondent is an iconic figure. "I think she really provides insights into some of these presidents and their character," Ms. Kennedy says.
4:55 p.m.: This pit feels lighter. I think a good amount of critics filed out with the "Generation Kill" folks.
4:57 p.m.: Ms. Kennedy says Ms. Thomas was leaning toward Hillary Clinton, but is OK with Barack Obama.
Read more about the HBO panel after the jump, including "True Blood" writer-director Alan Ball's comments about "Moonlight."
5 p.m: Ms. Kennedy says Ms. Thomas is disappointed in younger journalists for not asking tougher questions of President Bush. Had the journalists been asking the hard questions during the lead-up to the war, we wouldn't be in a war, Ms. Kennedy says of Ms. Thomas' beliefs.
5:06 p.m.: Does Helen Thomas blog? Ms. Kennedy doesn't know.
5:11 p.m.: This panel feels really weird with Ms. Kennedy answering on behalf of Ms. Thomas, like those CSPAN2 BookTV talks where guys portray Teddy Roosevelt. But we're all through with Ms. Thomas. "Little Britain USA" up next.
5:22 p.m.: We were just screened some clips of "Little Britain USA." Absolutely flooring. Rosie O'Donnell was joking about her sexuality and her weight, and two buff dudes in a gym are really, really secure in their masculinity, to name a few moments.
5:24 p.m.: Why do Brits like to dress up as women? "It's fun, it's relaxing," David Walliams, writer and executive producer, says.
5:27 p.m.: There is a laugh track on this show, which is interesting for a sketch comedy show (like it works with "Kids in the Hall," but it would seem out of place in "Upright Citizens Brigade). But writer Matt Lucas says the show is taped and screened (in cases of outdoor shots) in front of an audience. He promises the laughter is not canned.
5:37 p.m.: David Schwimmer, (you know, from "Friends"?) directed the West Coast studio tapings of "Little Britain USA." "I didn't realize he was in 'Friends.' I preferred the monkey, but maybe that was me," Mr. Lucas says.
5:39 p.m.: "True Blood" up. "Blood" is about vampires who are able to mingle with humans due to the creation of a synthetic blood mixture. It's based on novels by Charlaine Harris.
5:43 p.m.: Alan Ball, its writer-director and creator of "Six Feet Under," talking about the sex scenes in the first episode: "That was an instinct choice." He says it felt like it was part of the whole world the novels are based in. Mr. Ball stumbled across the Sookie Stackhouse novels accidentally, killing time before a dentist's appointment.
5:46 p.m.: Mr. Ball doesn't really see the vampires in "True Blood" as a metaphor for gay people specifically. He says the vampires do work as a metaphor as people who are misunderstood, but again, it's a show about vampires, so settle down with the reading into it.
5:49 p.m.: Mr. Ball says he's expanding story points that don't take place in the books.
5:53 p.m.: Lessons from "Moonlight": "I think it's pretty lame to let your vampire go out during the day because you don't want to shoot at night," Mr. Ball says. LET THE LETTER-WRITING CAMPAIGN BEGIN.
5:59 p.m.: All right, you vampire fans, we've got a critic asking the president of HBO about the crazed fan base for vampire shows. Are you happy now?
"Oh, this is a question about crazy fans?" Sue Naegle says. Ms. Naegle says she appreciates fan passion. "As long as they don't send a bunch of coffins to my office," she says. If "True Blood" is canceled, you've got your mailing material.
6:13 p.m.: Just a reminder, "True Blood" premieres Sept. 7.
That'll seal up this day of the Cable TCA. Join us tomorrow for the last day of the cable portion of the press tour. We've got Turner, Fox Reality, Starz and Lifetime on the slate. I'll be asking Wolf Blitzer if every room he enters becomes "The Situation Room."

Feb 19th 2014 | Joe Smith
Have you ever listened to your brain? If you can still yourself long enough to see and hear the gears winding away and the thoughts rushing by, it is astonishing. The human mind is capable of amazing things. Some try to explain it in processing power, and they don't seem to agree. I am not convinced we can compare it like that. A big part of my thoughts, memories and assessments are feelings and intuition. How do you store, manage and retrieve THAT! I digress?which is my point!
Some of the 100,000 thoughts I have a day are fully detailed visions. They are formed in a flash, coalescing as detailed events that I can revisit like a memory. I call them imagination events. Here is one of many many examples:
I was washing dishes one day when I saw a whole vacation in a quarter second. I'd been contemplating one for weeks but made no real plans, when scrubbing dried egg off a fork I saw and felt everything. How I purchased the tickets and chose the hotel, the airport wait, the naps, the sand in my toes, the seafood dinner, the hotel towels, the smell of the damp paperback I was reading on the beach. Every detail was accessible simply by remembering the event of that thought.
These things are very much like dreams. It is not a predictor of the future but an illuminator of present and future.
An imagination event in my brain is like a baseball player hitting a curveball. The mechanical change in swinging a bat once the eyes and brain recognize the pitch as a curve is popularly called muscle memory. Familiarity with the skills of pitching, swinging and the field of play combined with repetition help a batter succeed.
My familiarity with printing presses, silk screening, design software, paper styles, HTML/CSS, database structures, server and client side scripting, marketing principles, design principles, and typography combined with repetitive use of these to create web sites, software, brochures, direct mailers, corporate identity and so many other marketing products, gives my mind a kind of muscle memory training for producing appropriate ideas.Marketing creativity for me is second nature for me, like a professional baseball player hitting a curveball.
Skills are important but the problem posed by a client is the seed of an idea. People contact me with a particular problem. Sometimes they have a solution in mind but I like to start by trying to understand the product or service and then the pain it is causing. Often a client's passion shines through and few details are required. Sometimes extensive research is needed to understand what the product or service does for its users. I have had imagination events within moments of a client starting to tell me about their problem. It has happened after hours of conversation. It has hit me while brushing my teeth.
For Nashville Loves Food an hour into the creative meeting I could feel the weight of the paper, the style of Sheri Oneal's photography, the subtlety of varnishes, the richness of Melissa's content, and the folded die cut. For POCA Point I saw the scheduler software in a flash while I was receiving acupuncture.
The better the information the better the idea. I have to want to buy it. I count myself lucky for having a variety of clients and projects for products and services that I can appreciate. Not every marketer is so fortunate. I am also lucky to share my imagination. Of all the skills I've acquired in this field over the last 30 years the most fun, effective and valuable skill is my creative imagination events.
This is an attempt at explaining "I sell my imagination", the new way of talking about art dude creative.Art Dude Google+

Scout needs a home.
He is a Newfoundland/black Labrador mix and only 3 months old. He is this week's featured Pet of the Week through the Greater Derry Humane Society.
Scout is a big boy, weighing about 30 pounds and still growing.
Due to Scout's size, he would do best in a home without small children. A home with other big dogs would suit him fine.
Scout has a lot of energy, loves to play and would love a home with a fenced-in yard.
All dogs like Scout are up to date on vaccines, are on heartworm preventative and microchipped. Pets up for adoption are also spayed/neutered. Adoption fee includes obedience lessons through the Greater Derry Humane Society.
Anyone wishing to meet Scout can call 434-1512 or visit derryhumanesociety.com.
