Elland Road
Leeds United v Norwich City
Championship League
Saturday, February 19th, 2011, 3pm
Steve Chambers
(Norwich City fan)
1. Why
you were looking forward to going to the ground (or
not as the case may be):
I had visited Elland Road the last time we where both in the Championship. I was looking forward to the atmosphere as it was a near sell out (apart from the top tier of the massive East Stand). We were issued 2,800 tickets and had sold out our allocation which included the corner infill and half of the stand behind the goal. We where situated five rows back to the left of the goal, not in the corner as before.
2. How easy was your journey/finding the ground/car parking?
We had a relatively trouble
free journey from Norfolk, meeting up with
fellow Canaries at the Park Farm Cafe on the
A17. As we approached Leeds about 30 miles out
we were greeted with snowfall that progressively
got worse as we travelled along the M62 and then
the M621 however we managed to get to Leeds
without any major problems. We had decided to
stay overnight in Leeds, so before the game we
parked up at the hotel in the city centre and
caught a taxi to the ground, which
cost about a fiver.
Our taxi dropped us off right
outside the ground near the Old Peacock pub,
however even though we were not wearing colours
we decided after a chat with a local bobby to
walk down to the Drysalters which was about a
ten – fifteen minute walk from the ground. The
pub was rammed full when we arrived about 1pm
with a mixture of home and away fans exchanging
banter and songs the beer was £2.25 a pint for
Carlsberg and £1.99 for Fosters so after a few
pints we left to pub about 2.40 and walked up to
the ground grabbing a burger by the ground for
The ground itself is quite
impressive, especially the East Stand on
one side, all looking tidy. Plus there is a
statue of Billy Bremner outside the stadium. By
the time we got into the ground the teams where
just emerging and the atmosphere was electric
with the Norwich and Leeds fans both in
full voice, coupled with a loud PA
System. I couldn't quite understand why the
top tier of the large East Stand
wasn't open as I can imagine it's a fantastic
place to sit with excellent views of the game.
However after the game I had a chat with a Leeds
United friend he said that unless it going to be
sold out then they won't open it to save costs
in terms of stewarding etc..?
The game kicked off at an
electric pace with Leeds doing all the
pushing and hitting the woodwork
twice, before going one
up. Norwich rode out the storm and got back
into the game, hitting the woodwork
ourselves before equalising just before the
After the game we got way
fairly quick, walking towards the city centre
and then flagged a taxi down back to the hotel.
An excellent day out, good beer,
good banter, excellent atmosphere. All the Leeds
fans that I encountered where friendly and even
though we both wanted the same, those 3 precious
points with the season run in just around the
corner, we both had to settle for a point a piece.
Are you an away or general football fan who has visited Elland Road Stadium recently?
If so why not submit your own review of the ground and general day out?

If you've let so-called obstacles get the best of you, you can especially enjoy your confidence-boosting journey to the source of your dreams!
Follow in the seaward trail of that persevering hero of Greek legend, Odysseus! For the man whose ingenuity captured Troy - surmounted life's most formidable obstacles to reach his own heart's dreams. Venture through the land of the lotus-eaters - islanders who welcome newcomers with a mind-altering food. For those who partake of this 'lotus flower' lose all longing for their heart's dreams - satisfied with the everyday routine of bemused comfort and ease... But resolutely focused on your dreams, deeply believed - like the hero Odysseus - you are completely immune to the plant's power. For don't you desire more than the familiar, secure routine? Don't you seek to realize what makes you feel fulfilled! To actualize your true potential!
Yes, sense the renewed force in your demeanor, a new commanding presence - the absolute assurance you can live your life as you demand your life to be! So as you resume your journey, steer your course clear - right through those seeming turbulent, rough seas. For within you lies an indomitable spirit - your confident expectancy that you can do whatever necessary to reach your dreams!
'Obstacles' are simply challenges for you to liberate freely all your solution-producing capabilities. Confidently sail right by the island of the Sirens - melodious singers who try to mystify mariners with their nay saying songs. For you know: those long rhapsodies of 'worldly' wisdom are really only a concoction of misconceived, misleading notions. The intention: to lure sailors away from their hearts' true destination. On these very occasions, perceive your magical Life Force energizing you with renewed resolution. Your confident energy - like a potent force field - now shielding you from the nay-sayings of small-minded people and drawing to you instead, those more positive in mind! Yes, drawing to you only those who provide support and encouragement - as you adventurously pursue your life's dreams!

There is something about the beach--the smell of the salt air, the gentle breeze, the warm glow of the sun, the rhythm of the waves working a primeval magic on your psyche that goes deeper with every set of surf that washes in.
No one has to tell you to relax at the beach - it's automatic.
So when the 'worlds' get a little hectic in Orlando, head for Orlando's closest beaches right here on the Space Coast where you can explore the sandy Atlantic shoreline along 72 glorious miles.

With 1,346 new clients seen and 716 new jobs created by those clients who infused more than $39.6 million into Cleveland's working community over the past three years, the Tennessee Small Business Development Center at Cleveland State Community College has been empowering small business owners to compete in a global marketplace.
The network of certified business counselors are experienced professionals who understand the business community, know how to gauge the economic climate of their areas and can navigate a course of success.
David Hudson, director of the TSBDC in Cleveland, said the agency is dedicated to helping any and all entrepreneurs realize their dream of starting a new business.
"We will not only give you the information you need to get your business up and running, we will stay with you and help it grow," he said. "All of the services we provide are at no cost, and all business information is kept in the strictest confidence."
Hudson, who has a master's in business administration from Tulane University of Colorado, worked 10 years for Dole, the world's largest producer and marketer of fresh fruit and vegetables. He was the manager of operations in Costa Rica, Ecuador and the Philippines. "I also ran a $50 million brewery and Coca-Cola franchise in Honduras as the general manager there," he said. "I went from there to the Philippines, then from the Philippines to Ecuador as operations manager there."
Upon returning to the states to be with their two sons who are now in medical and law school, Hudson started four different automotive repair businesses. Now that he is the director of TSBDC, Hudson said he and his staff are prepared to offer their advice and resources to anyone interested in starting their own business.
Having experience working for Fortune 500 companies, Lisa Janes is more than qualified to help develop marketing and business plans. The training provided by GlaxoSmithKline and Avon Products allowed Janes to become a top sales and marketing person, achieving the highest awards at both companies as well as joining the top 1 percent of real estate agents in Collier County, Fla. When it comes to teaching others how to be successful, Janes is a seasoned professional.
"My teaching and training background is a great combination to help small business owners," said Janes, who has a master's degree from Michigan State University. "Small business owners thrive after working with the SBDC. My family has owned several small businesses and has been very successful over the years."
Jennie DeCook, a transplant from Florida and former court reporter, began a new career in residential real estate sales. Following the collapse of the housing market in 2008, she returned to college to finish her bachelor's degree, graduating summa cum laude in 2010. In early 2011, DeCook began working at the Small Business Development Center as the Information Processing Specialist.
Her expertise in sales, marketing, legal matters and small business experience gives her a unique perspective and rapport with the center's clients. DeCook has worked on expanding her own small business, Kilnfused Art Glass, volunteered at the Museum Center at Five Points, and began working part time for the Bradley Cleveland Public Education Foundation. She is also currently pursuing an MBA at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.
Robert Hotchkiss, a former president and chief operating officer at the Genoa Banking company in Genoa, Ohio, was responsible for increasing the bank's assets from $12 million to $80 million in 14 years, from 1978 to 1992.
Hotchkiss, who has a bachelor of arts in business administration, brings a wealth of experience and ingenuity to TSBDC. While president, he served as a state director of the Community Bankers Association and as the national director to the Independent Bankers Association located in Washington, D.C.
After more than 50 years in Ohio, Hotchkiss said he "fell in love" with Tennessee and decided to move to here in 2004, after spending considerable time in The Volunteer State while working for affordable housing in five states.
This collective team of successful professionals said they are ready, willing and able to assist small businesses, entrepreneurs and individuals with new ideas, strategies, confidential counseling, training seminars and presentations so that they can achieve their dream of becoming successful business owners.
Hudson, who took four years of French and is fluent in Spanish, said, "We enjoy helping people start businesses, and our goal is to help you succeed."

Eight Outfits That You And He Will Both Love
"You can't please everybody." You've likely heard this age-old saying a million times, and it tends to be true—but when it comes to fashion, there's always an exception. Sometimes, sometimes, it's possible to craft a winning outfit that not only makes you feel like a million bucks, but also puts a giant smile on your boyfriend/husband/significant other's face. Yes, such looks are the magical unicorns of the style world—but truly, they do exist.
The trick to looking stylish while not making your guy scratch his head in utter confusion? Avoiding items both overly trendy (we're looking at you, harem pants and peplums) and yawn-inducingly conservative (a twinset and pearls isn't really ideal for date night, unless you're dating the Queen). To help you out, I've put together eight head-to-toe looks that are guaranteed to please both parties, whether you're looking for a knockout Valentine's Day ensemble or just the perfect outfit for your next couples cocktail party.

The Madeleine Brand Show for February 13, 2012
A look at two Jewish billionaires with opposing political views
ED JONES/AFP/Getty Images
Chairman of US-based firm Sands Las Vegas, as well as Sands China, Sheldon Adelson.
Unprecedented amounts of money are flowing into 2012 political races at all levels.
Newt Gingrich is in Pasadena, Calif. Monday morning, trying to raise money. He'll spend a few days in the Golden State fundraising. Gingrich's most prominent backer is Sheldon Adelson, the Las Vegas billionaire who is very close to the Israeli government.
Haim Saban is also a Jewish billionaire, but he's a big supporter of Democrats. He supported Hillary Clinton in the last election and gave $9.3 million to Democratic committees in 2002. He also has close ties to the Israeli government.
Shmuel Rosner is an Israeli journalist who writes for the Jewish Journal. He shares his thoughts on how Adelson and Saban will shape the election.

Ferris up 39-19
BIG RAPIDS - Ferris has had a great defensive effort early in this game with a stifling defensive effort that has caused Ashland all kinds of problems.
The Bulldogs are up 39-19 thanks in no small part to a 4-point play from point guard Darien Gay who was fouled as he knocked down a corner jumper.

Learn from the most experienced float tube angler in the state!What is Float Tubing?Float tube fishing utilizes the modern version of the old tire innertube. Years ago anglers could purchase canvas covers for truck tire inner tubes. Since that time technology and innovation have produced float tubes that are safe, comfortable and equipped with pockets and rod holders. You simply sit in the float tube wearing full waders (so you stay dry and unconcerned about aquatic critters) and use large flippers to propel yourself wherever you wish to go on the water - usually those hard to get to spots other anglers only dream of fishing!Craig Newton is the expert on float tube fishing, having started over 7 years ago and spending countless hours on the water.Craig specializes in fishing small, underutilized ponds near his western Morris County home, using float tubes to access areas others can't get to....where the fish are plentiful and very cooperative!Locations: Craig utilizes a number of waters depending on conditions and your skill level.

50 Years Later: A Half Century of Surgeon General's Reports
UPDATE: A live webcast press conference will be broadcast from the White House on Friday, Jan. 17 at 9:30 a.m. EST to release the 50th Anniversary Surgeon General's Report. You are invited to watch at :
January 2, 2014
Much progress has been made in the war against smoking since the U.S. Surgeon General released the first report on smoking and health 50 years ago this month. Since 1964, smoking prevalence among U.S. adults has been reduced by half and smoke-free laws have gone into effect in states and communities all around the country.
Chief among those laws is the federal ban on smoking on airline flights originating or ending in the U.S.—legislation that was significantly impacted by AARC members who devoted countless hours in the late 1980s to survey airline passengers to find out if they would support such a ban.
The first law banning smoking on flights of two hours or less went into effect in 1988, with the final law banning smoking on all flights in and out of the U.S. signed into law by President Clinton in 2000.
Promoting a tobacco free life
In the years since, AARC members have continued to support smoke-free laws in their own communities and work with smokers who want or need to kick the habit, often using information gleaned from the series of 30 Surgeon General's reports published since 1964 to support their efforts.
Several years ago, the AARC formed the Tobacco-Free Lifestyle Roundtable to serve as a networking resource for AARC members engaged in tobacco cessation education and treatment. Last summer, the Roundtable released a new guide titled Why Quit Using Tobacco? aimed at helping RTs help their patients give up tobacco.
More work ahead
Despite the progress that has been made, however, tobacco use remains the leading preventable cause of disease, disability, and death in our country, killing 440,000 people every year. The government estimates eight million people live with at least one serious smoking-related illness, with a cost to the U.S. economy of $193 billion annually.
The 50th anniversary Surgeon General's Report on smoking and health scheduled for release this month will highlight 50 years of progress in tobacco control and prevention, present new data on the health consequences of tobacco use, and detail initiatives that can end the tobacco use epidemic in the U.S.
To commemorate the anniversary, the Department of Health & Human Services is making an array of resources available to anyone who would like to use the occasion to promote the anti-smoking message in their own communities. Visit the Partners page on SurgeonGeneral.gov to gain access to downloadable banners, badges, social media resources, PowerPoint slides, tips from former smokers, and more.

Dreaming About Eggs?
May 11, 2010 10:35 AM
National Egg Month — On average Americans eat 100 eggs per year. Our favorite breakfast: 53 percent say eggs on
Sunday morning. And according to the International Egg Commission Hungarian men eat an average of 300 eggs a year. Making them the leading egg consumers in the world.
California dream expert and psychologist Paul Slovic says dreams about eggs indicate a problem that can scramble your personal relationships. Most likely you are about to get into a fight with relatives or friends. Treat them with kid gloves until the problem is solved.
We all know that rotten eggs smell horrible, what's the worst smell you've ever encountered?
According to Dr. Beryl West, how you like your eggs reveals a lot about your personality:
- Sunny-side up: You are an optimist and easy going.
- Hard-boiled: You're a no-nonsense type. You're quick to form opinions.
- Soft-boiled: You're gentle, sensitive, neat – but you're not always easy to please.
- Scrambled: You're agreeable and very steady. You go with the flow.
- Over easy: You are very precise. You know exactly what you want out of life.
- Poached: You are very orderly – you don't like to see anything out of its place.
- Omelets: You enjoy taking risks.

I enjoyed another Saturday afternoon this past weekend discussing literature and writing with a good friend at my local tea shop. It's an ordinary thing, (the tea ritual, not the fantastic conversation!) and not usually something most people would care to read about, but this time I veered from my usual order of Gyokuro and opted for the house Darjeeling blend.
This particular shop offers the usual Margaret's Hope 1st flush as well as 1st and 2nd flush single-estate Darjeelings, Assams, and Nilgiris. Their blend is touted as a medium-bodied, smooth TGFOP (Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe). Orange Pekoe is traditionally used in Lipton brand teas that many tea newbies are familiar with, but it is essential to experience it in loose-leaf. A classic, drink-it-down type of tea that paired well with the Triple Berry Mousse Cake.
In a strange co-incidence, I learned of today's earthquake that hit the Darjeeling region, and my heart sank. Nearly six months have passed since the Japan quake, and now another precious tea-growing region is affected by nature's fickleness, but there are details that as of yet remain unreported.
I thought I'd compile some internet resources, found via a simple Google search - these links have no relation to my own content, I simply put them here in one spot for those of you who'd like to know more, including an article that, ironically, discusses the impact of the Japan quake on the consumption of Darjeeling tea in Japan. I join my fellow tea bloggers on the internet and via Twitter in sending thoughts of appreciation and concern to the region.
Thunderbolt Tea's Blog - first-hand experience of the earthquake from the region
The Financial Express.com - "Quake-hit Japan retains flavor for Darjeeling"
HindustanTimes - mainstream news report, 2 confirmed deaths in Darjeeling region
To learn more about tea production in Darjeeling and Sikkim/East India:
Wikipedia - a place to start
The Hindu - "Darjeeling Tea Production at Record Low" - discusses early 2011 being a tough yr
Previous reviews of Darjeeling-related teas from LatteTeaDah archives:
Shanti Tea's Darjeeling Green - Jewel of a Brew
Indigo's Darjeeling Blend was so smooth and satisfying that I asked for a refill of hot water for my teapot and steeped the leaves again - something I don't normally do unless I'm at home.
The Triple Berry Mousse Cake - it isn't always offered at this shoppe, but it was heavenly! Perfect for a brisk fall afternoon!
Darjeeling leaves post-steep
A beautiful scene, made possible by the men and women who work the fields in what seems to be a far-removed corner of the world from the tea shoppe. Here's hoping that everyone in the affected region stays safe and that the 2012 season brings better luck.

The Grapes of Wrath is an American realist novel written by John Steinbeck and published in 1939. The book won the National Book Award[2] and Pulitzer Prize[3] for fiction, and it was cited prominently when Steinbeck won the Nobel Prize in 1962.[4]
Set during the Great Depression, the novel focuses on the Joads, a poor family of tenant farmers driven from their Oklahoma home by drought, economic hardship, agricultural industry changes and bank foreclosures forcing tenant farmers out of work. Due to their nearly hopeless situation, and in part because they were trapped in the Dust Bowl, the Joads set out for California. Along with thousands of other "Okies", they sought jobs, land, dignity, and a future.
The Grapes of Wrath is frequently read in American high school and college literature classes due to its historical context and enduring legacy.[5][6][7] A celebrated Hollywood film version, starring Henry Fonda and directed by John Ford, was made in 1940.
The narrative begins just after Tom Joad is paroled from McAlester prison for homicide. On his journey to his home near Sallisaw, Oklahoma, Tom meets former preacher Jim Casy, whom he remembers from his childhood, and the two travel together. When they arrive at Tom's childhood farm home, they find it deserted. Disconcerted and confused, Tom and Casy meet their old neighbor, Muley Graves, who tells them the family has gone to stay at Uncle John Joad's home nearby. Graves goes on to tell them that the banks have evicted all the farmers off their land, but he refuses to leave the area.
Tom and Casy get up the next morning to go to Uncle John's. There, Tom finds his family loading a converted Hudson truck with what remains of their possessions; the crops were destroyed in the Dust Bowl and, as a result, the family had to default on their loans. With their farm repossessed, the Joads cling to hope, mostly in the form of handbills distributed everywhere in Sallisaw, Oklahoma, describing the fruitful state of California and the high pay to be had there. The Joads are seduced by this advertising and invest everything they have into the journey. Although leaving Oklahoma would be breaking parole, Tom decides it is a risk worth taking. Casy is invited to join the family as well.
Going west on Route 66, the Joad family discovers the road is saturated with other families making the same trek, ensnared by the same promise. In makeshift camps, they hear many stories from others, some coming back from California, and are forced to confront the possibility that their prospects may not be what they hoped. Along the road, Granpa dies and is buried in a field; Granma dies close to the California state line, both Noah (the eldest Joad son) and Connie Rivers (the husband of the pregnant Joad daughter, Rose of Sharon) split from the family; the remaining members, led by Ma, realize they have no choice but to go on, as there is nothing remaining for them in Oklahoma.
Upon arrival, they find little hope of making a decent wage, as there is an oversupply of labor, a lack of laborers' rights, and the big corporate farmers are in collusion, while smaller farmers are suffering from collapsing prices. A gleam of hope is presented at Weedpatch Camp, one of the clean, utility-supplied camps operated by the Resettlement Administration, a New Deal agency that has been established to help the migrants, but there is not enough money and space to care for all of the needy. As a Federal facility, the camp is also off-limits to California deputies who constantly harass and provoke the newcomers.
|How can you frighten a man whose hunger is not only in his own cramped stomach but in the wretched bellies of his children? You can't scare him – he has known a fear beyond every other.
— Chapter 19
In response to the exploitation of laborers, there are people who attempt to organize the workers to join a labor union, including Casy, who had gone to jail after taking the blame for attacking a rogue deputy. The remaining Joads work as strikebreakers on a peach orchard where Casy is involved in a strike that eventually turns violent. Tom Joad witnesses Casy's fatal beating and kills the attacker, becoming a fugitive. The Joads later leave the orchard for a cotton farm, where Tom is at risk of being identified for the homicide he committed.
He bids farewell to his mother, promising that no matter where he runs, he will be a tireless advocate for the oppressed. Rose of Sharon's baby is stillborn; however, Ma Joad remains steadfast and forces the family through the bereavement. When the rains arrive, the Joads' dwelling is flooded, and they move to higher ground. In the final chapter of the book the family take shelter from the flood in an old barn, where inside they find a young boy and his father who is dying of starvation. Rose of Sharon takes pity on the man and offers him her breast to feed off and save him from dying. This final act is significant as it is the only action taken by a member of the Joad family that is not futile.
|This is the beginning—from "I" to "we". If you who own the things people must have could understand this, you might preserve yourself. If you could separate causes from results, if you could know that Paine, Marx, Jefferson, Lenin were results, not causes, you might survive. But that you cannot know. For the quality of owning freezes you forever into "I", and cuts you off forever from the "we".
— Chapter 14
The novel developed from "The Harvest Gypsies", a series of seven articles that ran in the San Francisco News, from October 5 to 12, 1936. The newspaper commissioned that work on migrant workers from the Midwest in California's agriculture industry. (It was later compiled and published separately.[8])[9]
While writing the novel at his home, 16250 Greenwood Lane, in what is now Monte Sereno, California, Steinbeck had unusual difficulty devising a title. "The Grapes of Wrath", suggested by his wife, Carol Steinbeck,[10] was deemed more suitable than anything the author could come up with. The title is a reference to lyrics from "The Battle Hymn of the Republic", by Julia Ward Howe:
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord:
He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword:
His truth is marching on.
These lyrics refer, in turn, to the biblical passage Revelation 14:19–20, an apocalyptic appeal to divine justice and deliverance from oppression in the final judgment.
And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God. And the winepress was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.
The phrase also appears at the end of chapter 25 in The Grapes of Wrath which describes the purposeful destruction of food to keep the price high:
and in the eyes of the hungry there is a growing wrath. In the souls of the people the grapes of wrath are filling and growing heavy, growing heavy for the vintage.
As might be expected, the image invoked by the title serves as a crucial symbol in the development of both the plot and the novel's greater thematic concerns: from the terrible winepress of Dust Bowl oppression will come terrible wrath but also the deliverance of workers through their cooperation, which is hinted at but does not materialize within the novel.
When preparing to write the novel, Steinbeck wrote: "I want to put a tag of shame on the greedy bastards who are responsible for this [the Great Depression and its effects]." He famously said, "I've done my damndest to rip a reader's nerves to rags," and this work won a large following among the working class due to Steinbeck's sympathy to the workers' movement and his accessible prose style.[11]
Steinbeck scholar John Timmerman sums up the book's impact: "The Grapes of Wrath may well be the most thoroughly discussed novel – in criticism, reviews, and college classrooms – of 20th century American literature."[9] The Grapes of Wrath is referred to as a Great American Novel.[12][13]
At the time of publication, Steinbeck's novel "was a phenomenon on the scale of a national event. It was publicly banned and burned by citizens, it was debated on national talk radio; but above all, it was read."[14] According to The New York Times it was the best-selling book of 1939 and 430,000 copies had been printed by February 1940.[2] In that month it won the National Book Award, favorite fiction book of 1939, voted by members of the American Booksellers Association.[2] Soon it won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction.[3]
Part of its impact stemmed from its passionate depiction of the plight of the poor, and in fact, many of Steinbeck's contemporaries attacked his social and political views. Bryan Cordyack writes, "Steinbeck was attacked as a propagandist and a socialist from both the left and the right of the political spectrum. The most fervent of these attacks came from the Associated Farmers of California; they were displeased with the book's depiction of California farmers' attitudes and conduct toward the migrants. They denounced the book as a 'pack of lies' and labeled it 'communist propaganda'.[9] Some accused Steinbeck of exaggerating camp conditions to make a political point. Steinbeck had visited the camps well before publication of the novel[15] and argued their inhumane nature destroyed the settlers' spirit.
In 1962, the Nobel Prize committee cited Grapes of Wrath as a "great work" and as one of the committee's main reasons for granting Steinbeck the Nobel Prize for Literature.[4] Time magazine included the novel in its "TIME 100 Best English-language Novels from 1923 to 2005".[16] In 2009, The Daily Telegraph also included the novel in its "100 novels everyone should read".[17] In 1998, the Modern Library ranked The Grapes of Wrath tenth on its list of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century. In 1999, French newspaper Le Monde of Paris ranked The Grapes of Wrath seventh on its list of the 100 best books of the 20th century. In the UK, it was listed at number 29 of the "nation's best loved novel" on the BBC's 2003 survey The Big Read.[18]
The book was quickly made into a famed, 1940 Hollywood movie of the same name directed by John Ford and starring Henry Fonda as Tom Joad. The first part of the film version follows the book fairly accurately. However, the second half and the ending in particular are significantly different from the book.
It was revealed in the 2009 documentary American: The Bill Hicks Story that The Grapes of Wrath was the favorite novel of the comedian Bill Hicks, who was such a fan that he based his famous last words on Tom Joad's final speech: "I left in love, in laughter, and in truth, and wherever truth, love and laughter abide, I am there in spirit."
In July 2013 Steven Spielberg announced his plans to direct a remake of The Grapes of Wrath for DreamWorks.[19][20]
Woody Guthrie's song, "The Ballad of Tom Joad" from the album Dust Bowl Ballads (1940), focuses mainly on the main character's life since he was paroled from "the old McAlester Pen" and follows the book quite closely.[citation needed]
American rock singer-songwriter Bruce Springsteen named his eleventh studio album The Ghost of Tom Joad (1995), after the character. The first track on the album is also called "The Ghost of Tom Joad". The song – and to a lesser extent, the other songs on the album – draws comparisons between the Dust Bowl and modern times.[21]
The song Dust Bowl Dance by Mumford & Sons is based on the novel.
Bad Religion have a song entitled "Grains of Wraith" on their 2007 album, New Maps of Hell. Bad Religion lead vocalist, Greg Graffin is a fan of Steinbeck's.[22][better source needed][not in citation given]
An opera based on the novel was co-produced by the Minnesota Opera and Utah Symphony and Opera, with music by Ricky Ian Gordon and libretto by Michael Korie. The world premiere performance of the opera was given in February 2007, to favorable local reviews.[23]
On April 16, 2008, the television series South Park aired an episode entitled "Over Logging". Written and directed by Trey Parker, this episode parodies Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath, as the Marsh family heads to California to find more Internet.[24]
The Steppenwolf Theatre Company produced a stage version of the book, adapted by Frank Galati. Gary Sinise played Tom Joad for its entire run of 188 performances on Broadway in 1990.[25] One of these performances was shown on PBS the following year.
In 1990, the Illegitimate Players theater company in Chicago produced Of Grapes and Nuts, an original, satirical mash-up of The Grapes of Wrath and Steinbeck's acclaimed novella Of Mice and Men.[26]

What if I told you that there is a secretive organization that operates in America and influences geopolitics more than almost any other organization on earth? An organization that controls trillions of dollars – and affects many aspects of your daily life, whether you own a home, how much your mortgage is, and how much your money makes in the bank? An organization that holds its meetings in secret and that is ruled by people who, once appointed, are basically accountable to no one? Without meaning to sound conspiratorial, there is such an organization: the Federal Reserve. Its seven Governors are some of the most powerful people on earth.
The American people are highly critical of the Federal Reserve and of the Fed's policy of quantitative easing in particular, which received only a 27 percent favorable rating in a recent Bloomberg poll. Many economists say that the Fed's easy credit in the 1990s and early 2000s created the dot-com and housing market bubbles. And we just recently learned details of how the Fed secretly bailed out foreign central banks using billions of our dollars. But despite these sharp criticisms of the Fed, America still is not paying sufficient attention to what the Fed does and how it does it.
For example, did you know that Kevin Warsh is resigning from the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, seven years before the expiration of his term? This should be big news because it means that President Obama will have filled every Presidentially-appointed seat on the Federal Reserve Board, except for one. Given the Fed's impact on every aspect of our economy and our prosperity, you'd think this would be at least as big as the Super Bowl or the Oscars.
Both the American people and Congress have always paid much more attention to Supreme Court Justice appointments than to Fed Governor appointments. Although the Chairman of the Fed, Ben Bernanke, is well-known, few Americans pay attention to the other Governors, even when they are appointed. But now that real power over our economy rests in the Federal Reserve, we ought to change that. After all, the Fed Governors have a major impact on the US, the global economy, inflation and money supply, whereas the Supreme Court Justices actually have more limited powers.
The Federal Reserve was created to ensure the stability of our financial system and lessen bank panics. But since the recent financial crisis, the Fed has assumed huge responsibilities over almost all aspects of Americans' economic lives. The Federal Reserve used the crisis to make an enormous power grab, in part by suggesting that it is the only part of our government smart enough to grapple with the complexities of modern American finance and the financial crisis. Today, the Fed also controls the money supply. Inflation. Unemployment. Banking regulation. Our currency. Interest rates. Risk management. Consumer credit.

Business partners Judy Rozier and Sally Winfrey are about to open their second Sweet Frostings bake shop, in the Wandermere Shopping Center at 12501 N. Division.
They opened their first cupcake-cake-truffles-cookies shop in November 2011 in downtown Spokane. Business is so good they're expanding into north Spokane.
The new store, with roughly 1,700 square feet, opens on Wednesday. It will operate six days a week, closed Sundays.
The location includes a party room, an option the two owners don't have at the downtown store, Rozier said.
They expect to hire eight to 12 employees. The company produces roughly 18 different cupcake styles daily.
"Once we get this store operating and profitable, and then we'll consider expanding south or to the Valley," Rozier said.
Cody George, of Kiemle & Hagood, helped arrange the lease.

The markets are reviving, and by the analysis of investor and commentator Marc Faber, speaking in Korea at the AsianInvestor Institutional Investment Conference this week, we saw the bottom when the S&P500 Index hit 666.
The terror on the screens may be over, but it comes at a price, and that price is paid in the debasement of the currency.
Markets may continue to soar, says Faber, but if the dollar in your pocket is going to depreciate, it's a scant consolation. In real terms, investment values may move backwards.
Faber feels our central bankers are moonlighting as money printers, and any man in the Fed who tries to halt the presses, and put up interest rates to mop up the voluminous liquidity, is going to find himself jobless.
"The Fed's monetary policy has made things more volatile," he observes. "Had they not cut rates, financial institutions would have started deleveraging earlier, instead of continuing to build their balance sheets, prompted by the cheaper rates."
US debt to GDP is now at 37% and that doesn't include all its future promises and obligations, which could see it balloon to 600%. With $8 trillion in government debt, Faber believes it is an impossibility that monetary policy will be relaxed.

text: I'm thrilled to have this done. Although stuff will always be landing in the mending basket, it's officially empty for now!!! There were three winter blouses in it, and two winter skirts, and a pair of winter pants. All six of those will be stashed with the other winter stuff I recently put away, to be reevaluated next year based on my size then. That only makes sense. And for now, as of yesterday, I have reclaimed: my black suit pants (which were most important), a great skirt, my brown blazer (second most important), a white shell, another pair of great black pants, and a pair of plaid ones that work with the brown blazer. Also mom gave me a cool skirt/scarf combo. Although this may slightly be working against my goal of downsizing my wardrobe, I'm glad to have these old friends back. 6 years ago

Mutter: Window Manager in GNOME's Future
GNOME developer Thomas Thurman describes the future of the Metacity 2 window manager in a project blog. Apparently a new GNOME component named Mutter will be taking over its functions.
Development of GNOME 3 is gradually moving into focus. Although there is no intent to reinvent the wheel as with KDE 4, there is some drive toward innovation. Its name is the Mutter window manager, so named because it supports Clutter, and it is to take the place of Metacity 3. Thomas Thurman describes how the future is "fairly clear" in his Metacity blog:
"Your chronicler believes that the community is better served by working on Mutter, and will do so. Metacity 2 will not be actively developed, other than for bug fixes."
The forthcoming GNOME 2.28 will include Mutter as an alternative window manager and it will be the standard in GNOME 3. The Clutter library associated with Mutter is currently GNOME's Next Best Thing that should help build GUIs using hardware acceleration and animation. Clutter does this by supporting OpenGL and through its bindings to numerous programming languages. The GNOME Shell project is already using Clutter.
As Thurman says in his blog, Metacity 2 will be taking bug fixes, but is no longer actively deployed, unless "some people out there would like Metacity 2 to continue, and if so they are welcome to fork the project and take over." With over 500 open bugs, he suggests resolving them bit by bit and by category: "Gentle reader, might you be willing to take on a block or two?"
PerformanceWon't this degrade gnome's performance??? Right now i think gnome runs relatively well in my pentium 4 2,8 GHz, with 512 mb ram and a 32 mb (shared memory....) graphics card. With mutter i think this will change, for the worst... Well, there's always XFCE, fluxbox and many others...
gnome3I was excited when I heard about gnome 3..... then I saw it in its current state....
all I have to say is Ugh! compared to Kde....
Its like comparing a Ferrari to a Rusty Old Ford XF Falcon
No reinventionMorty,
Learn to read. Mutter is based on metacity. Not a complete rewrite
Funny"Although there is no intent to reinvent the wheel as with KDE 4"
That made me laugh, the writer got seriously confused here. Since the whole article suggest the exact opposite. Rather than KDE 4s evolutionary approach to the window-manger, by adding new features to the existing code, Gnome is reinventing the wheel by writing a new window-manger.
Oh well, it's not exactly the first time. I think they started out with ewm then switched to Sawmill/sawfish and then replaced it with Metacity for 2.0 or so.

Critics of accountable care organizations (ACOs) have been quick to proclaim the demise of the aggressive healthcare delivery reform after the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released some rather checkered results in mid-July for the first year of the Pioneer ACO program. Although 13 of the 32 Pioneers were successful, generating some shared savings, seven of the ACOs opted to step down to the less-risky Medicare Shared Savings Program (MSSP), and two decided to no longer be any kind of Medicare ACO (Pioneer or MSSP). The remaining 10 Pioneers chose to stay in the program even though they did not have a successful first year.
One should not be alarmed by the spotty results, as they are reminiscent of what happened with the Physician Group Practice (PGP) Demonstration Project, a precursor to the current Medicare ACO programs, in which only two of 10 participating ACOs succeeded in the first year. The encouraging news is that the participants in the PGP Demonstration Project improved their overall performance during the following years, so the 23 Pioneers still in the program have reason to expect their performance will improve in the years ahead.
There was good reason to believe the mixed marks would deter provider organizations from signing up as Medicare ACOs, but in the past three months, eight health systems have all entered into agreements to be involved in MSSP ACOs: Frederick Regional Health System, Meritus Health, Orlando Health, PinnacleHealth System, Robert Wood Johnson Health System, Rutgers University, Scottsdale Healthcare, Susquehanna Health, and Western Maryland Health System.
The momentum of commercial payer-led ACOs is even greater. According to a recent survey by HealthEdge, a technology provider for healthcare payers, 61 percent of commercial payers want to participate in the ACO model. From August through October, the following provider organizations joined commercial ACOs, which are largely led by Aetna, Cigna, and Blues plans: Alta Bates Medical Group, Barnabas Health, Brown & Toland Physicians, Facey Medical Foundation, Facey Medical Group, Humboldt-Del Norte Independent Practice Association, InterMed, Jefferson Health System, Maine General Health, MaineHealth, Martin's Point Health Care, Medical College of Wisconsin, Memorial Hermann, Mercy Health System, Mount Carmel Health Partners, New Hanover Regional Medical Center, Prevea Health, Providence Health & Services, Quality Health Solutions, Saint Francis HealthCare Partners, Santa Clara County IPA, Scottsdale Healthcare Partners, UCLA Medical Group, WellSpan Health, and Wilmington Health.
As of this writing, the problems of HealthCare.gov and the sending of policy cancellation notices to small businesses and individuals who buy their own insurance are dominating the newspaper headlines and talk-radio airwaves. So quietly, yet relentlessly, the accountable care movement—despite the mixed results of the first year of the Pioneer program—continues its march to reform the delivery of health care in America.
