While the works of Frederic Remington and Charles Russell comprise the bulk of the Sid Richardson Museum's collection, they are not the only important artists whose works were collected by Sid W. Richardson. The following artists' work is also included in the collection.
Oscar E. Berninghaus (1874-1952)
Born in St. Louis in 1874, Oscar Berninghaus began work in lithography in 1889 and was a printer's apprentice in 1893 while studying at the St. Louis Society of Fine Arts. Berninghaus was an established commercial artist when he visited New Mexico in 1899 and became "infected with the Taos germ." He is the only member of the famous Taos artists' colony represented in the Museum's collection. Berninghaus painted many Indian subjects, giving them the full Taos treatment, but also created works in which horses and humans were reduced to inconspicuous elements in the spectacular mountainous landscape that lured painters to northern New Mexico. He also painted Western historical pictures, five murals for the Missouri State Capitol at Jefferson City and a series of oils for the Anheuser-Busch Brewing Company of St. Louis on the theme of early western transportation.
Charles Francis Browne (1859-1920)
A native of Natick, Massachusetts, Charles Francis Browne studied at the Museum of Fine Art in Boston, and later in Paris. In the summer of 1895 Browne and two friends from Chicago embarked on an adventure in the West, a tour of the Indian country of Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico. Although Browne was attracted "by the strangeness, picturesqueness and real interest" of the Indians he was the least influenced of the three by what he had seen. Landscape was his teaching specialty at the Chicago Art Institute, and it was his work in that field that earned him election as an associate in the National Academy of Design in 1913. Nevertheless, Browne did paint Indians in 1895.
Edwin Willard Deming (1860-1942)
Edwin Deming enjoyed a long, productive career as an artist and illustrator. Born in Ashland, Ohio, and raised on a homestead in Illinois, he studied art in New York and Paris. Deming traveled extensively among the Western tribes in the late 1880's and through the 1890's. His first trip to the West was in 1887 when he visited the Apaches and the Pueblo Indians in the Southwest and the Umatillas in Oregon. He was best known as a muralist and received a letter from Frederic Remington in 1909 stating his intention to have Deming do "a panel or two" for the dining room of Remington's new house in Connecticut. However, during the same period his smaller canvases were also winning recognition for their evocation of the spiritual side of Indian life. He saw himself as the interpreter of the Indian's soul and was given to quoting Remington, "Deming, the difference between your Indians and mine is that I saw my Indians through the sights of a rifle and you saw yours from inside the blanket in his tipi."
William Gilbert Gaul (1855-1919)
Born in Jersey City, New Jersey on March 31, 1855, William Gilbert Gaul was best known for his military scenes, drawing inspiration from the Revolutionary War, Civil War, Spanish-American War, and even World War I. Although he originally intended to pursue a career in the military, ill health prevented Gaul from entering the Navy.
With an interest and skill for art, Gaul moved to New York City at the young age of 17, where he enrolled in the National Academy of Design. His studies there emphasized realism and genre painting. His training at the academy and his instructors' influence remained with him throughout his career as evidenced in his art. Later, Gaul joined the Art Students League of New York after its founding in 1875.
The year 1876 marks the artist's first journey to the West. Unfortunately, no known sketches or written records have survived. However, in an 1898 interview, Gaul recounts an incident he encountered with an Indian Chief, Yellow Wolf, whom he had met in a Sioux Camp three weeks before the Battle of Little Big Horn.
Upon his return to New York, Gaul began painting military and Western scenes, for which he received much public acclaim. The artist painted sympathetically towards his subjects. Rather than focus on violence and carnage, his Civil War series revealed the artist's concern with universal suffering, showing soldiers as human beings with heart who engaged with each other off the battlefield.
In 1877, Gaul was one of the younger men to gain entry into the spring exhibit of the National Academy of Design. At the age of 27, he became the youngest artist awarded full membership to the National Academy as Academician (N.A.), a status of high honor and prestige. Through his many accolades, including medals at both the Paris Exposition (1889) and Chicago and Columbian Exposition (1893), Gaul fashioned a reputation as a leading figure painter in the U.S., and preeminent in the field of military painters.
After the death of his uncle, the artist inherited a small farm in Tennessee, the birthplace of his mother. In order to possess the property, the will stipulated that Gilbert had to live on the land for at least four years, forcing the artist to leave his home in New York in 1881, where he had become well-established in the city's art circles. Throughout his career, the artist continued to visit Tennessee, maintaining a cabin and studio on the farm, where he painted some of his greatest pictures of the local landscape and people.
Like another artist represented in the Sid Richardson Collection - Peter Moran - Gaul served as a special agent for the 1890 census of Indians in the United States, observing the Standing Rock and Cheyenne River Reservations in North Dakota. During his visit, Gaul painted from life a portrait of Sitting Bull, completed just months before the chieftain's death. After the trip, Gaul traveled to South America, documenting scenes and events he encountered in Mexico, West Indies, Panama, and Nicaragua.
For at least a decade or more, magazines looked to Gaul to use his work both to illustrate articles and serve as frontispieces, with many depicting military subjects, but included genre and western scenes, as well. Unfortunately, over time, collectors became increasingly attracted to the other artists and movements. After a period of much success, by 1904, the artist began to struggle financially from which he would never recover, forcing him to give up his New York studio. Working from a studio in Nashville, Gaul continued to illustrate novels, though profits were limited. Likewise, his paintings were not selling well, and most of his late works remained unsold by his death from tuberculosis on December 23, 1919.
Peter Hurd (1903-1984)
Peter Hurd, a native of New Mexico, ventured from his home state in 1921 to attend West Point but resigned to study art instead. In 1924 he became a pupil of the renowned illustrator N.C. Wyeth at Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, and five years later a member of the Wyeth family circle when he married his mentor's daughter Henriette. The Hurds, both artists, lived on at Chadds Ford until 1939, then settled in New Mexico, where Peter Hurd earned distinction as one of the outstanding painters of the Southwest. Though his watercolors and etchings are much admired, his reputation rests on his work in egg tempera, an exacting medium perfectly suited to his tight, precise brushstroking since it allows his heavily reworked surface to retain an airy glow. While best known for his spare, evocative studies of the light, the landscape, the people, and the quiet charm of his native state, Hurd was also an accomplished portraitist.
Frank Tenney Johnson (1874-1939)
Born June 26, 1874 on a small southwestern Iowa farm, Frank Tenney Johnson grew up with dreams of the distant West. Struggling to keep the farm running after the death of his mother, Frank and his family sold their homestead and left for Milwaukee in December 1888. Living in the city was a radical change for the young prairie boy who was exposed to a whole new world after a school visit to the Layton Art Gallery. Inspired to learn how to draw and paint, Frank dedicated the rest of his time to becoming an artist, even going so far as to drop out of high school during his second year. He paid for art classes with professional water colorist F. W. Heine, who kept Frank on as an apprentice for a short while. Frank started taking lessons with Milwaukee artist and former Texas Ranger, Richard Lorenz, whose paintings of Western life appealed to the young student's senses. For income, Frank held various free-lance jobs with Milwaukee engraving and commercial companies, as well as the city newspapers, all of which afforded him the time to take several trips down to South Dakota where he studied and sketched the native tribes he encountered.
Eager for more instruction, in 1895, Frank traveled to New York. During his five months there, he attended classes at the Art Students League under the instruction of the distinguished American landscape painter John Henry Twachtman. At the encouragement of his new wife, Vinnie Reeve Francis, the new couple settled in NYC in 1902. While Vinnie found a job as a secretary, Frank found free-lance work and joined the classes of Robert Henri and William Merrit Chase, both highly-regarded painters, at the New York School of Art. After becoming friends with Emerson Hough, the editor of Field & Stream, Frank made a five month trip West, at the magazine's expense in exchange for illustrations. The artist spent time with a cattle outfit in Colorado and then traveled down to New Mexico to immerse himself in the world of Navajos, painting, photographing, and sketching all the while. From 1904 onward, Frank was travelling repeatedly to the Southwest and the Rocky Mountains, with his wife Vinnie eventually accompanying him on these journeys.
While working in New York City, from 1903-1925, the artist supported his art through several relationships with New York publications, illustrating for popular periodicals such as Field & Stream, Cosmopolitan, Century, Harper's Monthly, Harper's Weekly, Metropolitan Magazine, and Scribner's. Frank also illustrated books by Western writers: Zane Grey, George Bird Grinnell, B. M. Bower, A. M. Chisholm, and Edgar Beecher Bronson. By 1925, the artist abandoned his illustrative work in order to focus on his career as a fine artist and became tenacious in his efforts to exhibit his work.
That same year, with the growing interest in European art among the New York art dealers and his fascination with the West, Frank bought a home in Alhambra, California while maintaining a residence in New York. Already established among East Coast circles, the artist involved himself in the Los Angeles burgeoning art culture, joining several art associations. Frank's career continued to blossom and gained prestige with the designated honor of Academician in 1937 at the National Academy of Design.
Founding the Painters of the West, a California group of artists, Frank was tireless in his commitment to promote Western art and representative painters. Whether romanticized or nostalgic in his vision, the artist remained true to realism. His paintings are distinguished by superb draftsmanship, painterly brushwork, and a fascination with outdoor light. Although he often generalizes the details of his landscapes with broad brush strokes, Frank provides a realistic impression of each scene. Much of his work reflects his interest in twilight and night light. Like Remington, Frank Tenney Johnson earned much of his reputation as a fine artist from his nocturnes, painting night scenes throughout his thirty-five year career, which ended on January 1, 1939, from spinal meningitis.
William Robinson Leigh (1866-1955)
Of the painters who gained fame as delineators of the American West around the turn of the century, William Robinson Leigh is routinely cited as the most thoroughly trained. A native of West Virginia, Leigh was the son of impoverished Southern aristocrats. He spent fifteen years studying drawing, painting, and composition in Baltimore and Munich and apprenticing as a mural painter before establishing himself as an artist and illustrator in New York City in 1896. A decade later, fulfilling a boyhood dream, he went west and fell in love with the desert country. While he would venture into other areas from time to time, he was primarily a Western artist.
Peter Moran (1841-1914)
Born in England on March 4, 1841, Peter Moran and his family sought a better economic life in America, settling in Philadelphia in 1844. After graduating from the Harrison Grammar School in 1857, Peter entered into an apprenticeship with a local lithographic firm. He also tried his hand at glass painting in 1860-61, though no prints in this medium from the artist have been identified.
Lacking formal training, Peter studied under his brothers for the next several years, supporting himself through the sale of his paintings. The family boasted membership to the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, with both Thomas and Edward as full Academicians. While never receiving status of full Academician, Peter was elected into the group as an Associate in 1863. In addition to the influence of his brothers, Peter studied the work of three French artists, which directed his interest towards animals and their natural landscapes: Constant Troyon (1810-1865), Rosa Bonheur (1822-1899), and Emile van Marcke (1827-1890).
In 1874, the artist took up etching, a field that garnered little attention in the nation at that time. It is likely Peter gained an interest in the medium after exposure to a major print exhibition sponsored by the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts that same year, which featured the largest public display of metal-plate prints up to that point in American history. Likewise, seriously committed to etching by 1878, the artist may have been influenced by his wife, Emily, a practicing etcher, and his studio partner, Stephen James Ferris, who may have provided Peter with some technical guidance.
The American 1876 centennial proved momentous for Peter Moran's artistic recognition. The artist submitted a group of etchings to Philadelphia's Centennial Exhibition, where he won a medal commending the artist for his "excellence in design and execution." Additionally, Moran received an award for one of his oil paintings on display. Peter Moran soon became a recognized name, appearing in both New York and Boston press, with articles highlighting the artist's reputation for skillful depiction of animals. His works were exhibited throughout the nation, not only in major East Coast cities like his first significant show of etchings at the Pennsylvania Academy in 1877, but in Newark, Pittsburgh, Utica, Louisville, and Chicago.
The summers during 1879-81, in between teaching courses at the Philadelphia School of Design for Women, Peter traveled west on sketching trips. He accompanied his brother Thomas on his first summer trip in 1879. Sponsored by the Union Pacific Railroad, the pair visited northeast California and the territories of Nevada, Utah, Idaho, and Wyoming. Although they sometimes encountered Native Americans, it wasn't until Peter's later travels west that the artist made sketches of the tribes and villages he experienced, dedicating much of his work to scenes and people of the Zuni Pueblo of New Mexico. Later, in 1890, Peter Moran served as a Special Agent for the Eleventh Census of the United States, documenting the conditions of the Shoshone Indians on the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming.
Throughout his career, Peter Moran worked to elevate and establish an appreciation for the fine art of etching. In 1880, he helped found the Philadelphia Society of Etchers, through which many exhibitions were organized and sponsored. Through the support of New York print publisher and dealer Frederick Keppel, Moran had a one-man show in 1887. Comprised of 104 of his etched prints, the show established his reputation as one of the leading American painter-etchers of farm life and grazing cattle, during a time when images of cows resonated with an American audience who recognized that the traditional way of life these domestic cattle signified was rapidly vanishing. By the time of his death on November 9, 1914, after an extended illness, Peter Moran was a well-loved figure in Philadelphia art circles.
Charles Schreyvogel (1861-1912)
Born January 4, 1861, just a few months before the beginning of the Civil War, Charles Schreyvogel grew up in poverty on the East Side of New York City. The young boy was educated in public schools and sold newspapers on the city streets. When the family moved to Hoboken, New Jersey, he became a lithographer's apprentice. Although largely self-taught, the young artist enrolled in the Newark Art League, until, thanks to his generous brothers, Charles traveled to Europe to study. He set sail for Munich in 1886, where he studied for three years at the Munich Art Academy under the tutelage of Karl von Marr and Frank Kirchbach.
Weak from violent seasickness during his voyage home to Hoboken, Charles received doctor's orders to seek relief out in the dry, hot air of the West. Schreyvogel finally made the journey to the American frontier in 1893, after which time he continued to visit regularly, traveling to the Ute, Sioux, and Crow Reservations. While out West, the artist collected a large amount of American Indian and U.S. cavalry memorabilia, along with making several sketches of all he encountered, whether it be cowboys and Apaches or the horses they rode. Always adhering to detail and historical accuracy, Charles interviewed many veterans of the Plains wars, both Indian and military officers. Now the Hoboken artist was ready to embark on his career as the painter-historian of the Indian Fighting Army of the American West.
Schreyvogel painted profusely, but was unable to find buyers for his western scenes. By the end of the decade, the artist's luck began to improve with his creation of a large canvas, My Bunkie. In 1899, he entered the painting in the annual exhibition of the National Academy of Design, where it won the Thomas B. Clarke Award for "the best American Figure Composition painted in the United Stated by an American citizen without limit of age." The painting was a success, attracting large crowds and receiving acclaim in the local papers. Encouraged by the success and fame of My Bunkie, Schreyvogel began painting regularly in his "outdoor studio" atop the roof of his Hoboken home. Because the artist struggled with horse figures, he often worked from several clay models, which the artist had molded into all sorts of positions and expressions.
The press often compared Schreyvogel's canvases to the work of Frederic Remington, often highlighting Remington's role as illustrator versus Schreyvogel's career as a painter. These remarks agitated Remington, who viewed Schreyvogel as a growing concern and competitor. Both men had an eye for detail and remained true to the facts when representing scenes and stories of the West, which was contested when a newspaper published Remington's letter in which the artist attacked one of Schreyvogel's most admired paintings, Custer's Demand. In the 1903 New York Herald article, Remington takes the painting to task, listing the various historical flaws and inaccuracies in Schreyvogel's composition, calling it "half-baked stuff" and "unhistorical." Schreyvogel, however, had conducted extensive research to make sure every detail was correct, from the costumes of the men and their equipment to the horses and even the thickness of the stirrup leathers. Many people came to the artist's defense, including General Custer's wife, Libbie Custer, and Custer's good friend, Colonel Schuyler Crosby. Schreyvogel, for his part, never responded to Remington's criticisms and remained an admirer of the artist. The controversy increased Schreyvogel's fame, and the artist quickly became known nationwide. After Remington's death in 1909, Schreyvogel arose to position as the foremost painter of the American West. That same year, he agreed to publish a book of his work, called My Bunkie, which was well-received. Schreyvogel was celebrated for his scenes of conflict and struggle between the U.S. cavalry and Native Americans. These confrontations are often visually enhanced by Schreyvogel's perspectival illusion wherein the protagonists appear ready to burst through the canvas. Known for their dynamic immediacy, the artist's paintings are visually engaging and incite a sense of anticipation, making the viewer feel part of the unfolding drama. Schreyvogel died January 27, 1912 from blood poisoning, leaving behind a small, but impressive collection of work.

But it took the chief researcher at the prominent Washington, D.C.-based company a half hour just to figure out what time the sun would rise in Denver on March 9, the airport's erstwhile opening date. The charge for that service, performed for a network morning show: $75.
Bills from Hill & Knowlton recently filed with the city offer an inside picture of how the firm went about reaching out to national news organizations and trying to influence coverage of the airport--its job under a controversial $60,000 contract.
The city administration says it is satisfied with Hill & Knowlton's performance, even though the indefinite delay of Denver International Airport's opening ended up severely tarnishing Denver's image. But most reporters and other experts interviewed last week questioned whether the company made much difference--if any at all--in the way the DIA story played out in the national press.
"It's hard for me to believe that Denver's publicity could have been any worse," says Larry Sabato, a professor of government at the University of Virginia and an authority on politics and the media. "I would say Denver has two black eyes and a couple of bruised shins. And they paid $60,000 for it."
Hill & Knowlton courted the city's business last summer after articles critical of DIA appeared in Forbes and Newsweek. The Forbes article was especially harsh, calling the airport a "financial crash in the making" and speculating that the city might eventually default on bonds issued to pay for the project.
Mayor Wellington Webb decided to hire the firm "to promote fair, accurate and comprehensive coverage" of the airport, according to contract papers on file with the city. Hill & Knowlton was supposed to "identify top-tier media contacts" at the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post and other major news organizations, set up interviews with reporters, and then "frame the most appropriate agenda for discussion."
City ordinances prohibit publicly funded PR firms from working for the re-election of Webb or any other politician. And both city and company officials insist they weren't trying to squelch negative stories about the airport--just make certain they were truthful and fair.
"Spin-doctoring we were not doing," says Steven Silvers, the Denver-based Hill & Knowlton vice president who did most of the work on the DIA account. "What we wanted to do was help ensure that whatever arguments were being presented for or against the airport were being put in context. We don't presume to tell the media how to run a story. What we're looking for are inaccuracies and misinformation that is being repeated without being challenged."
But one of the Hill & Knowlton invoices, submitted to the city for work in January, hints at an almost Nixonian paranoia about critical coverage of the airport. Cristie Drumm, an $80-an-hour account executive at the firm, took part of a day that month "to investigate [a] reporter who had written a negative article on DIA," the invoice says.
Briggs Gamblin, Webb's press secretary, says he's pretty sure that reporter was Mike Fumento, author of a DIA article titled "Federico's Folly" that ran in the December 1993 issue of the conservative monthly American Spectator. The article pilloried the airport and former Denver mayor Federico Pena, now U.S. Secretary of Transportation, and contended that DIA will be "worse in almost every practical way than the perfectly serviceable airport it is replacing."
Gamblin says Hill & Knowlton's "investigation" of Fumento wasn't nearly as sinister as it seems on paper: The only thing the firm did was check to find out whether or not Fumento was considered a reputable journalist.
"A half-hour phone call got us the information," Gamblin says. "He's definitely got a conservative slant, but he's a credible writer. Finding that out helped us: It told us we had to deal with his story."
But Fumento says he finds it offensive that he was investigated at all. If "there's something wrong with this airport, fix it," says Fumento, who works for a libertarian think tank in Washington, D.C., called the Competitive Enterprise Institute. "Don't go after the reporters."
Airport officials, Fumento adds, actually got their hands on a draft of the story before it came out. Formerly a resident of Denver, Fumento had finished the article in mid-1993 and had sent a copy to Rocky Mountain News columnist Gene Amole for feedback. Somehow, Fumento says, it got from the News to people at the airport, who called Fumento to complain. "They were fairly hostile," he says. (Amole, a frequent critic of DIA, says he has no idea how the draft found its way to the airport.)
Despite Hill & Knowlton's presence, the city appears to have squandered at least one opportunity to respond to Fumento's piece. After the story appeared, Dan Griswold of the Colorado Springs Gazette Telegraph decided to run it in its entirety on the paper's editorial page. He says he called city officials to see if they wanted to publish some kind of companion article in rebuttal and at one point spoke with Hill & Knowlton's Silvers.

I recently changed most of my houseplants to hydroton. I just received 4 Jasmines. I'm curious if anyone has them in hydroton pellets? One is in full bloom so I'd want to wait till it quits blooming for sure! The one blooming is Madagascar. Also have a variegated, Night Blooming & Orange Jasmine. The orange is a seedling about 6 inches tall. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Lavonn, I know you've been waiting for a long time for someone to answer, and I would have answered much earlier - the only problem is that, even though I grow everything in hydroculture for years, I've never grown Jasmines. I've converted well over 100 different plants successfully to the system, but not one Jasmine - yet. I do believe they will do fine. But they may react like Poinsettias, Azaleas, Hibiscus, Gardenias, etc. These types of plants drop all their leaves when converted, and start all over with new growth. Now I can't sweat that your Jasmine will do that, but it's possible it's that type of plant. Are these plants expensive? Are they small? I'd suggest converting one for now to see what type of reaction you'll get. I'm sure it'll do fine; I've never lost any plant while converting. But one plant to start with seems like a better move. And yes, I would definitely wait till the plant is finished blooming. |
Naturelover, Thanks for your input! The plants aren't real expensive, but I couldn't find them nearby & had to order. I probably will just try one. One of them has 2 plants in the pot. That would be a good comparison...just converting one! The only plant I've had a problem with is a Prayer Plant. It's the one with red veins. It's looking pretty bad, lots of leaves have dried up. Everyone else seems HAPPY! |

The prayer plant is probably struggling because of dehydration. The Marantas don't handle lack of moisture very well. To help the plant during this transition, provide more humidity either by placing it on a pebble tray, by wrapping a plastic bag around it or by helping it to root faster directly. One way to do that is by placing the stems directly in water until water roots form and then potting it up in the hydroculture setup. That's how I converted my prayer plant since the stems root easily in water. Change the water every week to supply an adequate amount of oxygen and your plant will come along nicely. The prayer plant is a wonderful candidate for hydroculture but it does appreciate a little extra TLC during the transition. |

Speaking of hydroton, I cannot find this stuff anywhere near where I live, in Muskegon, Michigan. I am having the hardest time! Any ideas anyone?? Need help finding some as I want to try to start a few soiless plants. Thanks in advance:) |

blondetazz0924, you'd have to check at a local hydroponics shop (if there are any 'reasonably' close to you). If there aren't any, you'll have to order the hydroton clay pellets from an online garden/plant store. If you google hydroton, you'll find many links. You can also ask at a local garden/nursery/greenhouse is they can make a special order for you. |

Check www.hydrofarm.com then click on where to buy then you can put your zip code and find stores close to you |
So, how did the jasmine's do in hydroculture. I am looking to use hydroton for mine, but I don't want to mess with a good thing unless it's a good thing... |
I too, am in the process of converting plants over to hydroton, I am using an aquarium pump to provide the oxy while they are in the water bath.I am confused on which fertilizer to use though, Thanks |

hi ken, i use Dyna-Gro Foliage Pro 9-3-6 for my (mostly) aglaonemas in hydroculture. it is a complete fertilizer and would be appropriate for most standard houseplants. i buy it locally at a local nursery, but it's available on amazon and other sites if you can't locate any. there are some other folks who grow in hydroton on this board, so maybe they'll chime in as well. in the short run, i think that any standard plant food would work. however, after months or years, your plants might develop nutrient deficiencies because of a lack of trace elements. good luck, nancy ps since it sounds like you're new to this method.... be sure to flush your plants and media with plain water from time to time (at least quarterly) to prevent salt from accumulating. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Dyna Gro
Hi Nancy, thanks for the good info, I actually have been reading good things about foliage pro, i have seen it mentioned in other post,s. I think i will try it.Are your plants constantly in the fertilizer water, or do you remove to air out.I am confused by this,mine is a small set-up, so there is just room for one plant at a time in the water.I just rotate them daily so they each get wet and get there nutrients.I know each species varies,some may need there roots constantly wet.I basically am experimenting, with what i think is not too bad results.Thanks |

Morning, I wonder if there's a hydroponic forum on GW??? Actually, I'm glad this subject came up, and Lavonne, hope you don't mind me asking a few questions. My dh's co-worker wants to grow, I'd guess you call it semi-hydroponic, vegatables. He's starting this project today. His plan is to grow veggies in water and soil. I'm not sure which soil he plans on using. He mentioned balls, lol..Are the balls hydroton? If so, he said he'd prefer using them, but they're Expensive! He also wants to include perlite or vermiculite. Even mentioned pebbles. If possible to have pebbles shipped to his house.. He's converting his shed to a green house, 'shed is next to his house'...he plans on placing a gas line from his house to the shed/green house to heat during winter. He'll be planting in aquariums..adding fish for fertilizer. If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it. Or if you know of a forum to ask questions, please let me know. Thanks, Toni |
hey toni, go to top of page , click on garden forums.find hydro, they have one here. |
so far spider plant is doing exceptionally well, being converted to hydro,the pothos seems to be doing good as well,dumb cane is not so well.. we will see, still experimenting with proper PH&nutrients. |
- Posted by hopefulauthor z5IL (email@example.com) on Sat, Sep 28, 13 at 15:01
Ken, so there is a hydro forum. Thank you. Do you who grow hydroponically keep succulents in water, too??? Toni |
Toni,,not yet but i am going to try them. I am just having fun with this,seeing which plant likes growing this way. |

A perfectly good torchiere lamp was left in my attic by previous owners and I would like to make it into a one arm arc lamp with a traditional linen shade to place over a game table. I wonder if anyone can give me some idea of what type of material to use to make a rigid curved extension and how to fit it for a traditional lamp shade. Any ideas would be appreciated as most arc lamps cost more than I care to pay. |

for a second there I thought you were talking about an arc lamp (i.e., one that uses the arc between two carbon electrodes to make the light). |
If I understand your question aright, your torchiere isn't likely to be very stable with any mass hanging out to the side (most are unstable enough already). Besides, how much is your time worth, modifying and rewiring that (most likely) cheap home-center junk torchiere? I say buy a decent quality lamp that you like, and enjoy a couple more games with your spare time. |
To davidr...Thanks for your reply and I guess some would agree with you, but this torchiere is great quality with a marble base that is heavy enough to balance the extension. I guess I could purchase one at about $400 or more, but I can think of a lot of other things to use that $400 for if I can figure out somehow to reconfigure this one. My husband and I retired early and we like trying to make something new out of something old rather than discarding in the landfill. I want a very traditional looking lamp and most of those available are more than one arm or are very modern. I would just like a single arm, one 150 watt bulb and a large linen shade. Some of the ideas we are tossing around to use for the extension include a length of fexible gas line or a piece of sealtite conduit and figure out what to place inside in addition to the needed wiring to keep the curvature we need rigid. We can use the bulb socket from the original lamp as it is a one piece molded deal ...we just have to figure out how to attach to the extension and to the lampshade. I appreciate your responding and we may find in time that it isn't practical, but we did notice in the description of one of the retail lamps that the extension was wrapped in leather. We figure that we could do that also and hide any flaws in the curvature. The diameter of the lamp is 1 1/4" so we are looking for something to use that is a little larger and would simply slip over it and we could anchor it someway. Anyway, thanks again. The great thing about retirement is that you now have time to drive yourself crazy with projects like this. |
Can you post a pic of the lamp? |
A linen shade on a torchiere lamp....hmmmmm I can almost hear the fire sirens now. |
to lbpod....I am not using a linen shade on a torchiere lamp, instead I am trying to make a one armed arc lamp out of a torchiere lamp. They sell them with linen shades in catalogs and on the internet so I assume these are safe. I agree that a linen shade on a torchiere would certainly not work. I wish I knew how to send a picture of what I am trying to make, but unfortunately, I have not mastered that. |
to jtorres60....I do not know how to send pictures yet but if you go to www.lampsplus.com and key in item 15907 it should bring up a picture of it. I think the description is Arcing with linen shade floor lamp item 15907 |
- Posted by paulusgnome61 (My Page) on Sat, Jan 23, 10 at 15:44
The arm of the lamp in the photo is probably made from steel tube. It appears to be made in 4 sections, each a little smaller in diameter than the one before, with the lamp fitting attached at the end. How the sections fit together and how the bottom section fits to the base is not clear. The wires to the lamp fitting run inside the arm. Getting pieces of tube bent to the right curve is the easy part. Working out how to join them up, how to mount the lamp fitting and base will be the tricky bits. Finish for the steel tube could be either paint, powdercoat, or even chrome plating. Best of luck, this sounds like a fun DIY project. |

Two years ago, the Chiefs transitioned from a 4-3 defense to a 3-4. Now, they might be looking to finally put the cherry on top of that switch in the first round of this year's draft. To discuss to the nose tackle position and the rest of Kansas City's needs, we turn to Patrick Allen from one of my favourite team blogs, Arrowhead Addict.
1. Is this the time to land a big nose tackle to hog up the middle of that 3-4?
I think so. To tell you the truth, I am shocked that Scott Pioli has let the position go for two years. The Chiefs started Ron Edwards at nose tackle in 2009 and 2010 with mixed results. Edwards had never played the nose before 2009 and it showed. He got pushed around a lot and the Chiefs were gouged on the ground all season long. That is why it was a big shock when the Chiefs went with Edwards again in 2010. Surprisingly, by upgrading the players around Edwards, the Chiefs played the run much better last year.
That being said, a lot of their success was due to the scheming of new defensive coordinator Romeo Crennel. Edwards also improved in his second year in the position. Still, he's on the wrong side of 30 and the Chiefs can only put a Band-Aid on the situation for so long. To truly take their defense to the next level they need to add a true run-stuffing nose tackle who can also generate a little pressure. By doing this, Crennel will be able to take advantage of the athleticism of middle linebacker Derrick Johnson.
Before the lockout, the Chiefs made a play for Shaun Rodgers before he eventually signed with New Orleans. This tells me they know the time to replace Edwards is now. I fully expect them to either draft a NT or find one in free agency. If free agency ever happens.
2. Besides that, what are the Chiefs' top need positions? They could definitely use some help on the offensive line, right?
The offensive line is certainly a need but it isn't as urgent as some other positions. The Chiefs have a solid starter in left tackle Branden Albert and a potential Pro Bowl player in guard Ryan Lilja. Brian Waters is on the decline but the Chiefs drafted Jon Asamoah last year and he looks to be the eventual replacement to Waters.
The Chiefs really need to replace Casey Weigmann at center and could use an upgrade over Barry Richardson at right tackle. I wouldn't be shocked if the Chiefs keep Waters around another year and move him to center. Waters can play the position and the move would enable them to insert Asamoah into the lineup while potentially improving Waters' career. Richardson could probably handle right tackle for another season but I wouldn't be surprised if KC drafted a tackle.
KC's biggest needs are at wide receiver. After Dwayne Bowe there is absolutely no other threat. The Chiefs have to get Bowe some help, particularly at quarterback.
I'd rank KC's needs as follows:
1. Wide receiver
2. Nose tackle
3. Center
4. Outside linebacker
If they can address the above through free agency and the draft they can begin to focus on depth, which is also a huge need.
3. Is drafting a quarterback a possibility?
Absolutely. After Matt Cassel the pantry is bare. Brodie Croyle was terrible in relief last year and third quarterback Tyler Palko is a backup developmental project at best. I wouldn't be surprised to see the Chiefs take a QB in the third or fourth round. They have been scouting the quarterback prospects pretty hard.
4. Who specifically do you want them to take with that 21st pick?
I think the Chiefs have got to take Phil Taylor if he's on the board. This defense has the potential to be dominant for years to come. Eric Berry, Brandon Flowers, Tamba Hali and Derrick Johnson all play at a Pro Bowl level. Glenn Dorsey at defensive end, Kendrick Lewis at free safety, Jovan Belcher in the middle and Andy Studebaker at outside linebacker are all solid players. Rookie Javier Arenas did a decent job as the nickel cornerback last year and Brandon Carr, opposite Brandon Flowers, was one of the more underrated corners in the league last season. Adding a pass-rushing OLB will help but it all starts up front with the nose tackle.
If Taylor is gone, I think they should take the best receiver available without reaching.

There's no excuse for anyone to get bored this October because we have events to appeal to young and old alike. There's no better time than autumn to enjoy the outdoors and take part in some events planned for fun and entertainment.
The month begins with the annual Nillie Bipper Arts & Craft Festival in a two-day event at Tri State Exhibition Center. The event is a juried fine art and crafts show with entertainment, food booths and children's activities, all sponsored by the Cleveland Creative Arts Guild. It honors an artistic genius in this community named Billie Nipper and is a tradition that spans over four decades. The two-day event is Oct. 6-7 at Tri State Exhibition Center.
The first Saturday of the month also features the annual Walk for Life for the New Hope Pregnancy Center. On Oct. 6, the walk begins at Cleveland High School and is designed as a 1.7-mile walk for all ages. Donations help New Hope in its mission to provide pregnancy tests, peer counseling, parenting classes, a 24-hour hotline for emergencies and much more.
Also on Oct. 6, a Chili Cook-Off features competition among area emergency services personnel. The event benefits Relay for Life and will be a competition whereby someone will take home the Chili Cook-Off Championship trophy. Someone will also claim the People's Choice Award. It's a good opportunity to taste-test chili and at the same time give money toward our annual Relay for Life to benefit the fight against the dread disease of cancer. Chili Cook-Off begins at 11 a.m. and will run until 3 p.m. at Bradley Square Mall. Ticket purchases enable the buyer to eat chili and cast a People's Choice Vote for their favorite. Then it's up to the judges to pick the championship recipe!
Just a few days later, on Oct. 19, the much anticipated hometown rivalry football game between Cleveland and Bradley Central will be held on the Bradley field.
It is a festive week of friendly competition and it generates a lot of conversation from the old timers, or should I say alumni? It's always great when we see the Bears and Raiders run onto the field for this annual game night.
On the following day, Oct. 20, a weekend of fun and food takes place downtown for the 2012 Cleveland Apple Festival. This event has become a national event, bringing tourists into the city streets to buy apples and taste the treats that range from apple fritters and fried apple pies to caramel apples. And that's only a few of the treats in store.
Also on this day, the 40 & 8 Society will inaugurate their first ever Pumpkin Run on the Cleveland/Bradley Greenway system. Rick Williams heads the event and it's destined to become a fall tradition as well. Since this is the weekend of the big UT Vols vs. Alabama Crimson Tide football game, a special Big Orange and Crimson autumn event is also being staged at Spring Creek Town Center for Oct. 18, 19 and 20. The Center is located on 25th St./APD 40 in walking distance of downtown. This three-day event rounds out the weekend to offer a varied series of activities with something for everyone.
The final MainStreet Cruise-In of the season will be held on Oct. 27. Our city streets will be filled with vintage cars and enthusiasts from all over the country. Each and every cruise-in just keeps getting better. It has become an auto lovers' weekend and the range of vehicles on display continues to grow with each season.
The month of October ends with the grand finale which is our annual MainStreet Halloween Block Party. This year is indeed special! It marks the 25th anniversary.
It doesn't seem possible that this event has been going on for a quarter of a century. For those of us who were there for the very first, it is truly a remarkable feat.
It has come a long way since its beginning. What began as a simple gesture of handing out candy to youngsters has evolved into a full-blown production with games, prizes, food, costumes, music and more! It has literally put Cleveland on the map and brings people from miles around to visit our downtown and enjoy the family-oriented night of fun.
It's a time when our historic Centenary Avenue rekindles the "Tall Betsy" folklore and her image appears on the street and towers above the city atop the historic Craigmiles Opera House.
She can also be seen at the Museum Center at Five Points which brings her story to life with annual storytelling.
Most of the events in October will take place in downtown Cleveland and many are planned and implemented through MainStreet Cleveland. Literally thousands of volunteers make all these events happen.
It's great to show off our historic downtown with its well-kept streets and landscape, our preserved historical buildings and unique business district.
The long-awaited fall season is finally upon us. And October in Cleveland promises, as always, to be one of fun, food, fellowship, entertainment and excitement!
Mark your calendar now and plan to attend some of these festive fall events in this great City With Spirit!

Of course the planet's a burning crater
Oil crunch now and greenhouse later
Tropical storms and London's freezing
Oil goes up and what's the reason
Doom and Gloom x 3
It's all totally fucked
Don't much care for the mainstream parties
Just a bunch of political smarties
Hand in glove with the CEOs
Companies rule in the land of OZ
So what x 3
Apocalypse now, maybe later
That's all very well
But what's the alternative
Life's not that bad
And there isn't really long to live
Party now x 3
Greens are shit and here's our notion
Up the creek, maybe in the ocean
A big problem is, they're really boring
Rules and regulations, just get us snoring
Most of them are the middle class
They do go on, what a pain in the arse
They just can't fathom our situation
They'd ditch our jobs for their reputation
And then of course, there's the feral tribe
Smelly chick peas and a goat skin hide
Want to live like that? You must be joking.
What kind of weed have you been smoking?
It gets worse x 3
Every day
A gift economy, could be the way to go
Explaining it's hard, but then again you never know
It's an anarchist dream, or someone's nightmare
A sci fi future, a global village, for us to share
When you make stuff, you've got to give it, don't hoard it
There's no money whatsoever and no boss, to give you shit
Give a lot to yourselves, your friends and your mates
What's left over, goes to those you don't hate
What a wanker x 3
Gee whizzz
But of course you're gonna think, that's all an idle fantasy
Living in the real world, it's something we'll never see
It happens so quick with the power of a gun
Cause people can be arseholes, you can't trust anyone
It's a bummer x3
Tell me something I didn't know
Well fuck me now, I don't want to be a hero
Better to chill out, here in ground zero
Maybe there's something, we can do at this time
Make it nice and simple, don't you try to take what's mine
Live closer to work, get a much smaller car
A solar hot water system, could go far
Fork out some dough, for pure green energy
You can get it now, ring the power company
You think the Green party stinks, but if you don't vote for it
The mainstream goes on, and they really don't give a shit
You don't have to worry, they'll never get in
But a Green vote could help, to start things happening
Old habits die hard, when you go to the polling booth
Voting for the Greens, has to seem really uncouth
Your old dad always said, to vote ALP
Give your preference to your dad, but give your mum a cup of tea
Vote Green x3
You must be kidding
This all sounds good, but perhaps it's too cheesy
If you're really pissed off, and life's not too easy
Do absolutely zilch but make your vote count
Put a cross in each box, and show them what you really want
Look out x3
No No No No No

Sierra Club Florida
Litigation in Florida
The current process for litigation is similar to the process of prior years. Details have been sent to Group ExComs. If you don't know who in your group has the material, you can email the steering committee and they will put you in touch with the right person. (email@example.com)
Things to Remember:
The Sierra Club is a single legal entity. All litigation is brought on behalf of the Sierra Club as a whole. Before you decide on litigation, which is a serious and expensive step, make sure you have made all efforts to gain your environmental goal. Be sure that you understand all the facts and be realistic about your legal objectives. Consult with an attorney about your legal standing and be sure to include this information in the new matter form. Please plan to give time for authorization from each of these committees: Group Excom approval - Formal approval to proceed recorded in minutes; Florida Litigation Advisory Committee (Warren Anderson, Peter Belmont, George Cavros); Sierra Club-FL Steering Committee; National Sierra Club Environmental Law Program.

Robert Pattinson isn't the only man Kristen hurt when she cheated with director Rupert Sanders! Kristen reportedly devastated her 'Breaking Dawn' co-star Taylor as well! Read on for all the details!
Taylor Lautner is disappointed in Kristen Stewart for cheating on Robert Pattinson, according to a new report.
"He looked up to her," a source tells Us Weekly of Taylor. "[But] he's dealing with it in a businesslike way because it's easier for him."
In fact, Taylor, 20, won't be allowed to make any statements regarding Kristen's affair. As we reported, the Breaking Dawn cast is not allowed to talk about the cheating scandal, however, director Bill Condon felt the need to speak up!
Bill told Entertainment Weekly, "The fact is, these are actors playing parts, and maybe it's not such a bad thing that people be reminded of that. Both of these actors gave heart and soul to the Twilight movies, not only during shooting, but also by navigating so graciously the whole life-in-a-fishbowl aspect of the phenomenon. Above all they have always shown great respect for the fans who made these movies such a success. Now it's time that some of that respect be returned to them."
Due to Taylor's disappointment, it seems like the actor will be taking Rob's side if and when their split becomes official.
As Rob, 26, allegedly leans on the shoulder of his good friend Katy Perry, he's rethinking his entire relationship with Kristen, 22.
What do YOU think, HollywoodLifers? Should Taylor be upset?

Taylor has a right to be dissapointed with Kristen. Taylor and Kristen had/has a really good friendship with her expeccially after making th new moon film, it seems now he is caught in the middle, its not fair on him. He should make his own decision on what do to with the whole thing, and nobody should make him take sides.

why people have to bring Taylor Lautner into this whole thing???????? Its not of his business that cheating scandal. If Kristen and Rob are his friends out of the set Im sure he support both of them in different ways, and period. Let the guy out of this!! he is living his life. And all that is ridiculous. thanks heaven he is better than that!!!
Posted at 7:01 PM on August 8, 2012
Stewart made her cheating his business because if the scandal hurts BD2 box office, the Trio's deal to get 1.25% of the worldwide box office could be negatively impacted. They could get LESS money than projected. So yeah, that alone is reason enough to be fired up at her: she may have jacked up other people's income with this mess.

I also think Lautner, under the advice of his team, is distancing himself from Stewart in this matter because he was once accused of being a K-Stew sidepiece on Pattinson's watch. He's already been accused In OK Magazine this month. Any public defense of her fuels the speculation. Hence, this stories about his disappointment in her, IMO.

im sure when people started to get really interested in the twilight movies/books was because of its story- (which by the way lured other authors to start writing books about vampires and other fictional characters with its unconditional love). so i personally think most of the fans would still want to watch the final movie is something they have waited for nearly 4/5 years. These actors just portrayed their roles and made a book come to life so we should at least respect them for this. i just think the media should not mix their careers with this cheating scandal crap, is two different things.

Of course she'll have bruises from her hairdresser. Her hairdresser is a transgender cross-dresser hermaphrodite dominatrix with a strap-on, and Kristen has had deep penetrating sexual intercourse with him/her/it in the tool shed, where there are sharp objects, on multiple occasions.

i feel is between Robert and Kristen situation and not bring the whole twilight cast on there problems about there relationship is not gonna hurt the sales of the movie at all with this scandal i feel stop bragging it and it was already dying out nobody was talking about it until they got Taylor Lautner in it and Nikki Reed in the situation stop it already is getting boring already relationships comes and goes move on…

Are you serious Taylor didn't say that come on now stop it already the twilight fans already hating this site already with the lies after lies leave it alone already gosh you guys make up stories that people say this and that which they never said i guess you wanna get sued like jennifer lopez is suing Star Magazine and InTouch for making up stories i guess you guys are next…..
Posted at 10:07 AM on August 8, 2012
@tina – forget it, the gossip press is not going to leave this alone. It's a juicy scandal they're going to ride until the premiere of the last Twilight film. And 3 months is plenty of time to get some new dirt on Stewart, backed up with evidence. If what they dig up sticks and it differs from what Stewart has said (her confession) she's finished.
"Juicy gossip," for sure.
(Especially with the new "On the Road" trailer that shows Kristen's character in a Jules et Jim threesome. All these directors know she likes to sleep around, so the casting was as easy as Kristen is sleazy.)
And as you surmise, lots more shoes are ready to drop. The girl loves her sex with multiple partners.
Posted at 9:45 AM on August 8, 2012
Now u guys are pushing it..you guys just posted 6 stories of rob and kristen in a row. I should send you guys an email or a letter. Havent you guys noticed this scandal is starting to die down? When this scandal first started you guys got like 100-200 commemts. Now its like 40-90 and most of the comments were about your lies lol.

MAP-21 and Transportation's Fiscal Cliff: What does it all mean?
Posted By Tina Grady Barbaccia On November 15, 2012 @ 11:12 pm In Economics,eRoadPro Newsletter,News & Analysis,The Roadologist | No Comments
The nation's economy is on a "fiscal cliff." But how does this affect the U.S. infrastructure system, namely the new highway bill, Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century, or MAP-21 for short?
Jack Schenendorf, a transportation policy veteran who served 25 years on the staff of the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, tells us what it all means with his white paper, "MAP-21 and Transportation's Fiscal Cliff."
The paper examines the benefits gained by the transportation community from the passage of MAP-21 and what needs to be done in the coming months to avoid an adverse effect on infrastructure investment in 2013 and 2014.
MAP-21 expires at the end of September 2014 so we need to pay attention to ensure there isn't a negative impact on infrastructure investment – or

She first offended our national sensibilities by appearing on film, in a backseat, without gasp a seat belt. Then came some widely leaked, kinda suggestive candid photos from sharing a piece of licorice with a girlfriend to defiantly showing off the edge of a lacy green bra. Finally, the kicker: a Vanity Fair photo shoot in which 15-year-old Disney Channel star Miley Cyrus bared her back to the camera, wrapped in what appeared to be nothing but a satin sheet. Yes, it seems the tween idol has spent almost as much time issuing apologies in 2008 as she has dominating box offices, concert ticket sales, cable television ratings, and album charts.
Debate over Miley's image and how many dings a billion-dollar empire built on one girl's goodness can take came to a head with the April 28 release of photos by Annie Leibovitz, long famed for her au naturel celeb shots. Everyone from Bill O'Reilly to the New York Post to any blog with a passing interest in provocative shots of teenage girls (read: all of them) piled on to blame and shame the star (while, naturally, sensationalizing the incident for their own gain). But in a world that has survived Britney and Lindsay, Miley should be the least of our worries, right? Why the furor over portraits that were supposedly approved by her parents and published by a respected magazine?
The problem stems from what has become a necessary evil of the tween biz, marketing kids as commodities. Miley was carefully constructed from day one as a family girl her costar (and, of course, best friend) is her dad, country singer Billy Ray Cyrus. As her alter ego, pop star Hannah Montana, she sings of female empowerment (''Who said I won't be president?'') and the virtues of BFFs. It's a time-honored tradition, predicating a teen star's success on her parent-courting image more than her talent. Never has the purity shtick succeeded, however, to such a demographic-targeting, corporation-synergizing degree. She made Forbes' list of top 20 earners under 25 last year with an annual take of $3.5 million. Hannah Montana merchandise alone dolls, clothing collections, housewares (from cups to headboards) is expected to pull in a billion dollars in fiscal year 2007 -- 08. As if her handlers were just sitting around thinking ''What medium haven't we dominated yet?'' she recently signed a reported seven-figure deal to write her memoir. At the wise old age of 15.
So does all of Miley's earning power make her every impure pose fair game? Many say that it does. ''It's sullied the brand,'' says Robert Knight, director of the Culture and Media Institute. Echoes Christian Coalition spokesperson Michele Combs, ''A lot of parents had faith in that wholesome pop-star [idea] again. And then for her to do this, they just lose that faith.'' Even a publicist who has worked with several struggling young starlets agrees: ''For her audience, it's saying, You can do naked photos. It's not a good message.''
Whatever the message, many observers blame Miley's parents, who were on the Vanity Fair set (Dad's in several of the fully clothed shots). The mea culpas came in varying forms from all sides, but it fell to the billion-dollar baby herself to issue the most overt apology: ''I took part in a photo shoot that was supposed to be 'artistic' and now, seeing the photographs and reading the story, I feel so embarrassed. I never intended for any of this to happen and I apologize to my fans who I care so deeply about.'' Disney, in turn, defended her virtue, saying, ''Unfortunately...a situation was created to deliberately manipulate a 15-year-old in order to sell magazines.'' Leibovitz said that she was ''sorry that my portrait of Miley has been misinterpreted.'' Vanity Fair was even less contrite, pointing fingers at Mom and Dad: ''Miley's parents and/or minders were on the set all day. Since the photo was taken digitally, they saw it on the shoot and everyone thought it was a beautiful and natural portrait of Miley.''
However you interpret the shot as art or as a deep betrayal of public trust the furor calls to mind other teen stars who've tried to break away from the Mouse House: Annette Funicello's transition to bikini movies or Britney Spears' jailbait shot on the cover of Rolling Stone, circa 1999, in her bra and underwear, holding a Teletubby. (The root cause of all her subsequent problems? Discuss.) Even Miley's onscreen mom knows from baring a little pubescent skin: Hannah Montana guest star Brooke Shields virtually invented the concept with scantily clad turns at 12 in Pretty Baby, and at 15 in both those Calvin Klein ads and The Blue Lagoon.
The Vanity Fair brouhaha hews more closely to those clearly calculated
moves than the overt mistakes made by Miley's arguably more scandalous
peers such as High School Musical's Vanessa Hudgens (whose personal
nudie pics spurred outrage last year) and Zoey 101's Jamie Lynn Spears
(whose underage pregnancy continues to feed the tabs). It is possible to
''age up'' in the worlds of Disney and Nickelodeon while avoiding any
sexualizing scandal Raven-Symoné and Amanda Bynes are two modestly
successful examples but it sure seems a lot tougher for female stars to
reach the masses without seducing them a little. (As for the boys? Our
chart at right indicates that things are hardly equal on that score.)
Perhaps Sheetgate merely demonstrates the canniest use yet of this tired
trick: Miley gets (over-) exposure in a national magazine and a slight
image makeover without having to sink to, say,
Jessica-Biel-topless-on-the-cover-of-Gear levels. And if she's lucky,
she might escape without major financial damage. ''I don't see the Hannah
Montana empire taking a huge hit from this,'' says Mark Fightmaster, an
analyst at Schaeffer's Investment Research. ''She'll probably be all
right as long as she stays on the straight and narrow.'' Besides, he
adds, ''distancing herself from Disney could help her in the future. The
15-, 16-year-old charm can only go so long.'' In other words, you can't
lead a dual life as a regular schoolgirl by day and a secret pop star by
night forever. But a dual life as a Disney brand and a budding sex
symbol? Perhaps if you're worth a billion bucks.

President Bush recently proposed eliminating the tax codes bias toward employer-provided health insurance. His plan provides a standard deduction of $15,000 for families who purchase health insurance, $7,500 for individuals. The more you think about it, the more sense it makes. Why shouldn't you get the same tax break your boss gets for purchasing health insurance?
The White House estimates this would result in 3 to 4 million additional insured, and some analysts believe that number is conservative. Around one-third of the 42 million uninsured Americans have family incomes above $50,000. The opportunity to buy a bare-bones policy for as little as $5,000 and deduct $15,000 from taxable income would be very attractive. Low-income families paying 15 percent federal income tax would get a $4,545 subsidy for buying health insurance.
Some worry that Bush's plan would spell the end for employer-provided insurance. What would be so bad about disconnecting health insurance from the job? Workers would simply get more of their compensation in cash rather than benefits. And we could make career decisions without worrying about losing or changing health insurance.
The plans main defect is probably its sponsor. To partisan politicians, it seems unthinkable the president could have a sound idea. For those with a more pragmatic bent, the plan is worth a look.
