If you missed out on the first run of very limited Hanging Klansman decks from Real, now is you chance to get in on the second pressing. With a portion of the proceeds going to Johnny Kicks Cancer there is no excuse to not add this one to your collection. Get it now at Actions Realized.
Surprise…yep…we blew it again.
The response to the first reissue of the Hanging Klansman was overwhelming. We truly had no idea it would go the way it did (See? Stupid is us). It was never our intention to cut people out of getting the deck. The original 250 sold out in a few hours and it was painfully clear we didn't make anywhere near enough to get even the die hard backers a chance at the decks. Your calls, emails and threats did not go unheard. We decided to make a second pressing of 300 more with three new colored veneers for anyone who may have missed out on the first round. Hopefully we got it right this time.
Thank you for being apart of it – it means so much.
A portion of the proceeds from these second pressing Limited Edition Hanging Klansman decks will go to Johnny Kicks Cancer, an amazing foundation dedicated to helping kids with Leukemia – thank you for the help!

A review in the Stranger called The 5 Point Caf? ?inarguably one of Seattle?s?indeed, the world?s?best dive bars.? The Seattle Times aptly described the eatery as ?a rare blend of homespun and depraved,? a reputation it's honed since 1929. Founder C. Preston Smith cashed in at the end of Prohibition, but it was his son Dick who cemented 5 Point?s notoriety with various stunts. He installed a periscope in the men?s room that still stands today, looking out at the Space Needle, and he had bikini-clad waitresses on roller skates plug expired meters around the neighborhood, leaving friendly notes behind.
The 24-hour eatery serves breakfast all day and night to pair with stiff drinks and frothy beers poured along the bar. Hearty plates arrive loaded with eggs benedict, huevos rancheros, and housemade spicy black beans or 1/3-pound burgers made from natural Oregon ground beef. Deep-fried jalapeno mac 'n' cheese balls lead off meals of open-faced turkey sandwiches or tofu scrambles that feature housemade curry.
After lauding the bar's mellifluous pairing of "tasty fried chicken" and beer, Seattle Weekly lovingly describes Marco Polo Bar and Grill as "a working stiff's haunt" with "a schizophrenic interior that features a fireplace, pull tabs, pool tables, [and] multiple TV screens." If not tuned to trivia, those 14 flat screens broadcast all manner of sporting events, drawing upon a premium satellite package powered by the metal plate in Mike Ditka's head. Cheering sections holler through mouthfuls of breaded gizzards, a local favorite that preludes the menu's panoply of handheld eats, such as the Coug Supreme, a third-pound burger topped with grilled ham and Cougar Gold cheese. Happy-hour specials during the week allow blue- and white-collar imbibers to divvy up which songs they'll sing at karaoke that Friday and Saturday, when Marco Polo's convivial eatery transforms into a who's who of Steve Perry impersonators.
Sample Menu
The Vibe: If you're jonesing for a craft cocktail, you might want to look elsewhere. Sure, 9lb Hammer has a fully stocked bar, but that's not generally what draws in its eclectic crowd. The appeal of this dive bar is its laid-back atmosphere, beer selection, and free pool and peanuts. You might even catch some live music, depending on the evening.
Inside Tips
While You're in the Neighborhood
Before: Browse for vinyl at Georgetown Records (1201 S. Vale Street).
After: Flip through comic books at Fantagraphics Books (1201 S. Vale Street).
If You Can't Make It, Try This: Play pool at Eastlake Zoo Tavern (2301 Eastlake Avenue E.).
Summit Public House: A User's Guide
Sample Menu
While You Wait: Grab a stick and an opponent for a free game of pool.
Where to Sit: If the weather's nice, head to the cozy outdoor patio. Even if its a bit nippy out, the elevated fire pit will keep you somewhat toasty. The patio is a great spot to bring your pooch, too. Though Summit welcomes dogs of all ages, they still require them to show valid ID before ordering a beer.
What's on the Tube? Though most sports bars hew to baseball, football, and basketball, Summit's TVs tend to be tuned to soccer and cycling. A typical crowd at Summit is pretty diverse, but big soccer and cycling events draw diehards in droves.
While You're In the Neighborhood
Before: Work up an appetite by perusing the eclectic collection of unique Japanese-themed gifts, clothing, and local artwork at Kobo (814 E. Roy Street)
After: Time travel to a simpler time by catching a classic, indie, or foreign flick at Harvard Exit Theatre (807 E. Roy at Harvard), an old-fashioned movie house built in 1925.
*If You Can't Make It, Try This: The Redwood (514 East Howell Street), a delightfully divey bar known for its cocktails, local on-tap brews, Southern-style comfort food, and extensive vegan options.
When Blue Moon Tavern opened in 1934, it was still illegal to sell alcohol within a mile of the University of Washington campus due to local temperance laws. Luckily, Blue Moon set up shop at the 1 mile mark, and thirsty students were more than happy to make the trek. It also attracted its share of intellectual heavyweights, including poets Allen Ginsberg and Dylan Thomas. When he beatnik hangout started to decline in the 1970s, diehard fans rallied to save it, paving the way for it to receive official landmark status in 1990. The no-frills bar continues to draw students and suits alike with cash-only beer and peanuts—the shells of which blanket the floor.
The soundtrack at Blue Moon Tavern changes depending on the day. From Thursday through Monday, it's live music, with a jazz jam kicking things off every Thursday afternoon. Wednesday brings open-mic night, and on select Mondays, bar-goers may be treated to Opera on Tap, where chamber-music singers belt out classical hits without breaking a single glass.
"Dive bar" is probably the best way to describe Blue Moon Tavern. The aging posters on the wall have been there for decades, and the initials of drunken vandals remain scratched into the wooden booths. Though this tavern isn't a spot for fancy craft cocktails, its the perfect place for shooting the breeze with friendly a bartender, or taking part in a wacky tradition, such as the semi-blasphemous annual Christmas pageant.

I'm going to try to keep this one unranty. Still going to be choppy and
nonlinear. I have so much I wanna get down.
Ya know. If it wasn't for crazy dreams and such keeping me anchored to
disreality I would have gone crazy a long time ago. I had this bizarre
dream about fox eggs. They looked like chicken eggs but they were actually
"the last of there kind" fox eggs. It was my job to protect them. My dad
This started out as a rant that I was gonna post. The site thingy didn't
have the journal thing ready so I saved it. Here is what I had.
I have lied to myself. I do not belong here. This place of
"higher learning" only wants to make me one of them. I don't wish
to be here. I am never happy. It's just one day of torment after
another. Things I don't not wish to know. No. Things I do not wish
The last two days have been... interesting. Well for one, the cafeteria people have been extremely... happy. Yah see, I'm vegetarian and there isn't a wide variety
of foods here that I can eat. I usually end up eating peanut butter
sandwiches and a salad or the occasional vegetable soup. So I go to the
cafeteria, assuming I'm going to be eating more peanut butter, not that I
don't love it, I do, I've just had it so many times... And when I get up to
Wow. Break is over. I had last week off. Back at college. Surprising how my
hatred for this place returned so quickly. Learning experience. Pssh. It's
like the professors just don't care. Example: This art teacher guy. I have
him for two classes. A drawing class and a general art class. So like the
first day or maybe second he hands out these general information sheets he
wants us to fill out about ourselves. Stuff like major and such. Then there is
Yay. I can finally post stuff that's been going on. The stupid internet here
comes to a screeching halt everytime I try to go to any interesting sites.
Paranoia's running high. Last night, or maybe last last night my mom and
brothers came over and picked me up and we went to get groceries and had
pizza afterwards. Fun fun. Then there's these people at breakfast I'm talking
to more and more. Two people counts as people so yay. This one girl, I believe
I just typed without really thinking. I let the feelings flow. After looking
back at what I've typed I just don't know what to think. I did it to make
myself feel better. I think it helped, I don't know.
I don't know why I'm righting this. I'm hoping it will make me feel better. It's like all I feel anymore is anger and disappointment in myself. I get angry all the time. It seems like everyone is an enemy. Either you are a racist, homophobe, or you hate something. You don't believe in respect. It's like I've got to fight you all. And I can't because I'm like the only one here. I can't stop crying. I'm crying right now. All my failures haunt me. Every little mistake is like a blow to my insides. Every mistake. They won't leave me alone. Mistakes from years ago. Do others remember them? Are they judging me? Things I was at one time happy with are judged against others and I fail. My drawings that made me so happy now are only failures when compared to others. My grades are awful. I can't remember anything. I'm failing my mom. My dad. My grandparents. Everyone who believed in me. I don't even know why I go on. Everything will just be another failure. I've got to fight everyone and myself. It's like I'm trying to walk up a raging river. It's all one big battle. I can't remeber ever just being happy. I don't have happy memories. All I can remember are my failures. I just don't know what to do.
This is my first entry. First blog too. I came across a link to this site
on the OutProud site and I decided to join up. I've had an account for a bit
and have been putting this off. From what I've seen people use the first one
to tell about themselves. Well. Me. Hmm. Right now, I'm going to college,
it's my second year. I'm a biology major. 19 years old. I like to read. It
takes me forever to find a book though. I could spend hours in a library

Philpott trial day 10: Mairead 'stoned' on night of fire, court told
Posted: February 25, 2013
|By Martin Naylor
The case against three people accused of killing six children in a Derby house fire resumed this morning.
Parents Mick Philpott, his wife Mairead, and family friend Paul Mosley, have pleaded not guilty to six counts of manslaughter.
Duwayne Philpott, 13, his sister, Jade, 10, and their brothers, John, nine, Jack, eight, Jesse, six and Jayden, five, all died from the effects of smoke inhalation after flames tore through their home in Victory Road, Allenton, on May 11 last year.
4pm The case is adjourned until 10.15am tomorrow.
3.50pm The next witness is David Burton, who lives in Victory Road.
3.45pm Ms Matthews told the court: "Linda asked Mick if he knew who had done it.
"He said: 'No, but I know where I am going'.
"He then started walking up the street towards the traffic lights."
3.40pm The next witness is Janine Matthews, who was with her friend Ms Muir on the morning of the fire.
3.30pm The next witness is Linda Muir, another neighbour.
Ms Muir said she spoke to Philpott in the street in the aftermath of the fire.
She told the court: "I asked where he was [when the fire broke out]. He said he had been asleep in the caravan.
"I asked him if he knew how it started or who had done it.
"He said to me: 'I know where I am going'."
3.20pm Jamie Butler told the court: "I got into the snooker room. I can remember it was a maze.
"I could hear a dog barking. I got the dog out. Every step I took forward I had to take five back.
"I had no T-shirt to cover my mouth. I was breathing in fumes."
Fighting back tears, Mr Butler said he saw Philpott at the front of the house.
He told the court: "I apologised to him. I apologised for not being able to save his kids."
Mr Butler told the court of Philpott's appearance.
He said: "It was not like he had been in a fire, not like he had run around in a room full of smoke."
3.10pm Jamie Butler said he ran up the street after hearing a commotion.
He said: "The door was on fire, it was impossible to get in. I climbed on to the caravan roof and jumped into the back garden
"I asked them [Philpott and his wife] where the children were. Mick said they were all in the back bedroom."
3pm The next witness is Mr Butler's brother Jamie.
2.55pm Mr Butler told the court that he saw Philpott outside a neighbour's house.
He said: "Mick was shouting at the police officers. He was saying: 'I told you that this would happen'."
Mr Butler said he then saw Philpott after the fire. He told the court: "He was coughing but it was fake. That was not a man coughing from smoke inhalation."
2.50pm The new witness Darren Butler told the court how he and his brother Jamie ran to the house on the night of the fire.
He said: "I was not just worried for the children but also for my brother because he is the sort of person who would not think about his own safety in a situation like that.
"There was thick, black smoke coming from the window at the top of the stairs"
2.40pm The trial has resumed and the next witness is the Philpotts' neighbour Darren Butler.
1.10pm The case has been adjourned until 2.20pm.
12.15pm The next witness is Vicky Ferguson, partner of the Philpotts' neighbour Adam Taylor.
Miss Ferguson said Philpott preferred Ms Willis to his wife. She said: "Everyone could see it. Mairead did all the house work. She would make him toast, coffee, roll his roll-up."
She said Ms Willis confided in her the night before she left that she was walking out on Philpott. She said: "She told me to promise her that I would not tell anyone."
On the night of the fire Mairead went to Miss Ferguson's house to talk about the following day's court proceedings.
"She (Mairead) was stoned. She said she'd had a smoke. I knew she smoked weed but she didn't smoke it very often," Miss Ferguson said.
She said she saw the Philpotts at her home after the fire. She said: "They were normal. It was not the sort of behaviour you would expect from parents who had just lost six children."
Miss Ferguson said a few days after the fire Philpott told her that he was going to renew his wedding vows with his wife. "He say `Listen to this, get your suits out, I am asking Mairead to renew our wedding vows'."
12.05pm Shaun Smith, for Mairead, read out part of her suicide note in court. In it she wrote: "I am going to go so that all our 11 children can be together and you and Lisa will be happy."
10.45am The first witness this morning is neighbour Adam Taylor.
He told the court that Philpott told him he wanted his former mistress, Lisa Willis, back "more than anything".
Mr Taylor said: "Mick put Mairead on the back shelf which I thought was wrong."
He also said that Mairead left a suicide note during a failed overdose attempt. Mr Taylor said: "Mick said it read that if she did it he would be happy."
Mr Taylor said he went to Philpott's house the night of the fire. He told the court that he and Philpott went to buy cannabis from someone Mr Taylor knew in Marlborough Road.
"Mick was paranoid about getting the kids (those he has with Ms Willis). He was adamant he wanted full custody," Mr Taylor said.
He said Philpott asked him to try to provoke Ian Cousins into punching Philpott. He said: "Mick wanted someone to film him being punched so he could use it in his custody battle."
10.30am Mick Philpott is wearing a black suit, white shirt and pink tie; Mairead Philpott is in a black jumper and Paul Mosley is wearing a black coat and jumper.
MORE residents of Victory Road are expected to give evidence when the trial of three people accused of killing six children in a house fire in Derby resumes today.
A list of seven more prosecution witnesses, including people who tried to help save the children, was presented to the media when the case was adjourned on Friday.
They are among a total of 103 people who may be called to give evidence in the trial of Mick Philpott, his wife Mairead and family friend Paul Mosley, who all deny six charges of manslaughter.
It is alleged that they are responsible for the deaths of the six Philpott children.
Jade Philpott, 10, her brothers John, nine, Jack, eight, Jesse, six and Jayden, five, all died from the effects of smoke inhalation after the blaze tore through their Allenton home on May 11 last year.
Their older brother Duwayne, 13, who Philpott is not the biological father of, died the following day at Birmingham Children's Hospital.
The prosecution claims Philpott, 56, was the "prime mover" in a plan to frame his former mistress, Lisa Willis, who lived at the house with her five children, four of whom Philpott is the father of, until three months before the blaze.
On the last day of evidence at Nottingham Crown Court, on Friday, neighbours told how they tried frantically to get inside the house as the flames took control.
Daniel Stevenson, who lived three doors away, wiped away tears as he recalled three attempts to get inside the house, only to be beaten back by the intense heat and thick smoke.
He told the jury: "I picked up a pickaxe that was on the roof of the conservatory, I smashed a window and a gust of smoke flew out.
"I couldn't see anything, there was too much smoke."
Philpott, his wife, 31, and Mosley, 45, of Cecil Street, Derby, have all pleaded not guilty to six counts of manslaughter.
Their trial is expected to last for a minimum of six weeks.

Paper vs. Pixels - Part 1
I've often heard the criticism of print designers that they can design only at one, fixed size, but that's not strictly true. Press ads have to be adapted for different publication and page dimensions. In packaging, designs usually have to work across a range of pack sizes.
If you have ever done any corporate identity work, you will know that a company image has to work in a great variety of situations, from a business card up to building signage. The media can vary from printed card to etched glass. So, to accuse print designs of being totally inflexible is just not fair.
The ever-changing screen
Having said that, a great many designers do tend to forget that there are many computer screen sizes out there – and some devices that aren't really computer screens at all.
Ideally, a Web page should work on any device, in any browser, at any size. Some pages must be like this by law or from a purely marketing perspective.
Yes, it's a tall order!
There aren't too many sites that do totally comply with accessibility legislation. You can put this down to aiming at a specific 'target audience', which is fair enough, or to budget constraints, and it's hard to argue with that. If it comes to simple ignorance or laziness, somebody is not doing his or her job properly.
There's no totally up to date and reliable research on what screen sizes people are using across the Web but TheCounter.com gives monthly figures based upon their server logs which show that about half of their readers use a screen resolution of 1024 x 768 – nominally a 17" screen. Another 35-40% use 800 x 600 - which suggests a 15" screen. That means that something like 10-15% are using larger or smaller screens – the larger being more dominant. Usage of the old 640 x 480 (12") screen has dropped to around 1% but now there are new devices like PDAs and Web-enabled cellphones with screen resolution of only half of that. That's a huge variation!
Then, the area of screens that can actually be used for Web page content is quite a bit less than the overall resolution. When you take the toolbars along the top into consideration, and any tab bars or scroll bars in a horizontal direction, you see that even maximised, you don't have all that much room left to play with. The page is almost certainly going to need to scroll in one, if not both directions to see all the content on smaller screens. Having to scroll in two directions is a big turn-off and should be avoided.
The potential problem here is that 'designers' tend to have larger and better monitors than general surfers. 19", 21" or even larger screens are not uncommon in design studios. It is very easy to be lulled into a false sense of security and to think that there's plenty of room for that nicely, squared-up page element placed judiciously just above centre like a picture in a frame. Unfortunately, this kind of design fails miserably and it happens because the designer just won't accept that anyone of any significance uses an 800 x 600 screen with all the toolbars and tab bars in place.
They do!
This is very much a case of 'styling' getting in the way of 'design'. When it is pointed out to them, designers who do this generally see the errors of their ways but they could have saved themselves a lot of heartaches had they 'designed for the medium' from the beginning.
Print designs should not be 'forced' upon a Web page and print design software should not be repurposed for the Web despite the makers' claims to the contrary.
Use the right tools for the job.
Judging a design on your own screen
When you look at a print design on your screen, you don't take what you see literally. It is a 'preview'. You know that the printed job will look quite different and with a little experience, will be able to compensate in your mind's eye so that you can make a reasonable 'guesstimate' when you are making colour decisions and adjustments.
When you view a Web page on your own monitor, that is just a preview too. Unlike the print job, where there is one 'ideal' final result, the Web page will have a great many 'final results'. You will be totally oblivious of many of these and quite unprepared for the variations.
So, it is essential to check your pages on as many screens as possible – but especially on small screens. There must be an old one lying around unused somewhere. Hook it up! Use it! Wear blinkers!

Sister Elizabeth, one of the Austins, has a beautiful pink-mauve color. It needs afternoon shade and I don't know whether it's blackspot-resistant or not. |
Young Lycidas. |

I love Angel Face! I can't grow here in my zone- she's just too tender but boy, what a beauty she is. |
Love Potion is one I really like, and it has better blackspot resistance than many in its color range: |

Blueberry Hill is a favorite of mine. It's vigorous and blooms constantly. I also love Angel Face, a beautiful classic with ruffly blooms and a nice scent. For a more bluish, true lavender, I think Blue Bayou is exquisite, but it doesn't last in the sun. It's hard to get, though. Diane |
2 older floribundas immediately come to mind - the lovely Harkness rose, Lagoon and the Le Grice (a masterful breeder of unusually coloured roses) rose, Lilac Charm. Now I am thinking about this, yet another LeGrice rose called Ripples is also a rather lovely notable pinky-lilac. All are beautifully formed singles with delicate ruffles to the petal edges but, like many of the mauves and purples, need a little pampering and careful placement. A newer rose for me which I am watching avidly in my garden is Odyssey, from the breeder of Rhapsody in Blue (Cowlishaw). Odyssey is a much smaller rose and lacks the ungainly growth of RiB, as well as having a paler lavender colour. I do not care for any of the double lilacs or 'blue' roses such as Blue Moon or Blue Girl - I am convinced that singles or at most, semi-doubles work better with this coloration than the more 'classical' high centred HT shape. |

"Natchitoches Noisette" or Sweet Pea for a shorter rose. I've always wanted Jasmina, too, from the looks of her. Wow! Maybe next year. The ones above I grow and love :) |

Escapade, an old Harkness floribunda which covers itself with semi-double blooms. An exceptionally graceful modern rose. I wouldn't be without Lavender Dream, a hybrid musk bred in Holland-- exceptionally healthy and vigorous and repeats well. Here is is much wider than tall, my 3 year old plant is 6 foot by 3 foot and clearly still gaining size! |
Another Harkness rose that is much mauver than many, Yesterday. Steve |

My favorite, in my climate, is Ralph Moore's 'Silver Cloud'. For me, the rose is prolific and disease free. The bloom are some of the first of the season and now that I have the curculio problem solved, the whole plant is covered in bloom and is a stand out in the garden. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Silver Cloud on HMF
Heirloom has always been my favorite mauve. Although it is tougher than my others such as Angel Face, Betty Streisand, Simply Marvelous and Neptune, Heirloom still requires spray to avoid black spot. |
harryshoe, your photo of Heirloom is exquisite, and it has got me more excited about my new Heirloom. If its blooms looks like yours do, I'm sure it will be a favorite mauvy-pink of mine, too. After seeing a friend's Heirloom and being impressed with it, I knew I had to have my own this year. It was planted bareroot about six weeks ago and has lots of buds already. It seems to be a very vigorous rose so far. Diane |
Yes, beautiful picture, harryshoe. I bought heirloom this year, too, bare root. It is doing great and has produced several big, fluffy blooms so far and is now working on a couple more new buds. Very pretty color. |

Less than nine years into the loan for its current location, Morristown-Hamblen Central Services officially burned the note on Jan. 27.

On Tuesday, the Newport Utilities Board voted to end the contract with General Manager Mike Parker after two months on the job and to reinstate Glenn Ray, the previous general manager.

In Appalachia, music has always brought families together, passed down history and provided communion with the sacred. Music plays a staring role at Walters State's Mildred Haun Conference.

Summary: Over a year after Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor and the arrest of Tomi's father and grandfather, Tomi and his friends, battling anti-Japanese-American sentiment in Hawaii, try to find a way to salvage his father's sunken fishing boat. In 1943, one year after the end of Under the Blood-Red Sun, Tomi's Papa and Grandpa are still under arrest, and the paradise of Hawaii now lives in fear, waiting for another attack, while trying to recover from Pearl Harbor. As a Japanese American, Tomi and his family have new enemies everywhere, vigilantes who suspect all Japanese. Tomi finds hope in his goal of raising Papa's fishing boat, sunk in the canal by the Army on the day of the attack. To Tomi, raising Papa's boat is a sign of faith that Papa and Grandpa will return. It's an impossible task, but Tomi is determined. For just as he now has new enemies, his struggle to raise the boat brings unexpected allies and friends.

Jonathan Klein (CNN)
This biographical article needs additional citations for verification. (January 2010) |
Jonathan Klein is an American media executive. He is the former president of CNN/U.S., who was responsible for management oversight of all programming, editorial tone and strategic direction of the network. Klein led CNN during its coverage of the 2008 presidential election, which resulted in the highest ratings in the history of the network.[1] During his six years at the network, CNN recorded six straight years of double-digit profit growth.[2] Klein was fired from CNN on September 24, 2010.[3][4]
Named to this position in November 2004, one of Klein's first acts was to deploy a large contingent of U.S.-based correspondents to cover the Asian tsunami, including Anderson Cooper (in his first major overseas assignment for CNN), Sanjay Gupta, Aaron Brown, and Soledad O'Brien. Previously, CNN would usually send locally-based overseas correspondents to cover breaking international stories. This tactic of "flooding the zone," as Klein called it,[5] became a hallmark of CNN's breaking news coverage during his tenure, on major stories such as Hurricane Katrina, the Israel-Lebanon war, the 2010 Haiti earthquake, and the BP oil spill. CNN won the DuPont-Columbia Award for its tsunami coverage,[6] and the George Foster Peabody Award for its coverage of Katrina.[7]
In early 2005 Klein canceled the long-running program Crossfire and replaced it with The Situation Room, saying that he agreed with Jon Stewart's criticism that the talk show was incendiary and detracting from reasoned political discussion.[8] The Situation Room featured lively graphics, a fast pace, and drew heavily on news from the Internet and especially the blogosphere; it was a harbinger of what became a CNN trademark of incorporating new technology into its broadcasts - including the launch of iReport user-generated journalism in 2006, the YouTube debate in 2007, the integration of Twitter into the network's newsgathering operation and its programs, the "magic" touchscreen wall used by John King during coverage of the 2008 election season, the use of real-time viewer-response graphs during presidential debates, and the controversial use of "holograms" (technically tomograms) to "beam in" reports by correspondent Jessica Yellin and the performer will.i.am from the Obama victory rally in 2008.
In late 2005 Klein named Anderson Cooper, who had become renowned for his coverage of Hurricane Katrina, as anchor of CNN's 10pm hour, and released Aaron Brown, who had anchored NewsNight in that hour since 2001.[9] The stated goal was to make CNN more competitive in prime time through aggressive reporting. In 2008 Cooper's program, AC 360, became the #1 rated cable news show among adults 25-54, a first for the network in that time period.[10]
With In the Footsteps of bin Laden in 2006, Klein launched a series of four documentaries per year reported by CNN's Chief International Correspondent, Christiane Amanpour. Her 2007 documentary, God's Warriors, a six-hour investigation of fundamentalist Muslims, Christians, and Jews, won the George Foster Peabody Award.[11] In 2008, CNN premiered Black in America, a four-hour documentary reported by Soledad O'Brien. The network continued the series in 2009 and 2010, and aired Latino in America in 2009. In 2009, CNN received a special President's Emmy Award from the National Association of Television Arts & Sciences in recognition of its commitment to long form programming.[12]
In 2007, Klein launched CNN Heroes, an annual awards show honoring people the world over who have performed extraordinary feats of selflessness. That year, the network also launched "Impact Your World," connecting viewers moved by news stories with organizations devoted to those causes.
Klein attempted to hire Keith Olbermann away from MSNBC in 2006 to replace the struggling Paula Zahn at 8pm. The idea was rejected by Jim Walton, President of CNN Worldwide, and Phil Kent, CEO of Turner Broadcasting, of which CNN is a part.[13] Instead, Campbell Brown was hired away from NBC News as CNN's 8pm anchor. Her program never caught on in the ratings, and she left the network in the spring of 2010. In November 2009, Lou Dobbs, the controversial right-wing anchor who had come under fire for his outspoken views on immigration and President Obama's citizenship, announced that he had decided to leave the network to pursue advocacy journalism more freely.[14] Klein replaced him with John King as the 7pm anchor, and named Candy Crowley, a longtime political reporter, to replace King as host of the Sunday morning talk show, "State of the Union."
In 2008, Klein hired Fareed Zakaria, then editor of Newsweek International, to host Fareed Zakaria GPS, a weekly Sunday talk show focused on global affairs. Zakaria recently left Newsweek to join Time magazine, a corporate cousin of CNN's under the Time Warner umbrella.
Faced with declining ratings in prime time in the year following the Obama inauguration, Klein hired Eliot Spitzer, the former governor of New York, and Kathleen Parker, a Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist for the Washington Post, to anchor a new 8 pm program; Parker Spitzer debuted in October 2010, shortly after Klein left the network. Klein also recruited and hired Piers Morgan to replace Larry King as host of the network's 9 pm interview show.[15]
Klein was also responsible for providing more air time for daytime anchor Rick Sanchez. Sanchez would later come under fire for comments he directed at Jon Stewart and CNN management on the Pete Dominick satellite radio program. The comments ultimately resulted in Sanchez's firing from CNN. Klein was fired from CNN one week before Sanchez's departure.[16]
Prior to CNN, Klein served as president and chief executive officer of The FeedRoom, a broadband video company he founded in 1999. Under his direction, The FeedRoom became one of the leading online broadcasters in the world, delivering more than 1 million video clips each day to customers including CBS, NBC, ESPN, Reuters, Tribune television stations and newspapers, USA Today, Business Week, General Motors, Cisco Systems, Sun Microsystems, General Mills and the U.S. Department of Defense.
Before founding The FeedRoom, Klein was an executive vice president at CBS News, where he oversaw prime-time programming including 60 Minutes, 48 Hours and Public Eye With Bryant Gumbel. Klein also oversaw off-network production, guest booking, investigative reporting and strategic planning.
Klein began his television career in 1980 as a news producer at WLNE in Providence, R.I., and the following year moved to a similar position at WPIX-TV/Independent Network News in New York. In 1982, he joined CBS News as a writer and news editor on the overnight broadcast Nightwatch. He subsequently served as broadcast producer on CBS Morning News and then CBS Evening News Weekend Edition, where he won an Emmy Award for live coverage of the 1986 Reagan/Gorbachev summit in Reykjavik, Iceland.
In 1988, Klein joined the fledgling prime-time magazine series 48 Hours as a field producer, eventually winning an Emmy Award for coverage of Hurricane Hugo and a Peabody Award for an hour he produced on the pro-life movement. Klein served as senior producer for CBS's 1990 late-night series America Tonight with Charles Kuralt and Lesley Stahl, as senior producer for the network's coverage of the 1991 Gulf War and later for the documentary Back to Baghdad, in which foreign correspondent Bob Simon returned to the Middle East following his imprisonment by the Iraqis during the war.
In 1993, Klein launched a unique prime-time documentary series, Before Your Eyes, two-hour movies-of-the-week that explored social issues such as child abuse, AIDS and juvenile delinquency through the eyes of real people living through dramatic moments in their lives with the cameras rolling. The series, for which Klein served as executive producer and director, was acclaimed for pioneering new forms of storytelling and received numerous national awards.
In 1997, Klein conceived and executive produced the CBS documentary Inside the Jury Room, in which network television cameras were permitted for the first time to observe deliberations in a criminal trial. The documentary won a Columbia-DuPont Silver Baton.
Klein also wrote the story for the TNT Original film Buffalo Soldiers, a 1997 historical drama starring Danny Glover.[17]
Klein graduated magna cum laude from Brown University in 1980 with a degree in history. He was news director and then general manager of WBRU-FM, a student-run 50,000-watt commercial radio station. He co-authored two musical comedies performed on the mainstage at Brown, and was elected class commencement speaker.

Paul F. Knitter, who joined the Union faculty in January 2007, is a leading theologian of religious pluralism. He holds a licentiate in theology from the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome (1966) and a doctorate from the University of Marburg, Germany (1972). Knitter's journey into interfaith dialogue began in 1964 when he was a seminarian in Rome and experienced the Second Vatican Council firsthand, at a time when the Roman Catholic Church declared its new attitude towards other religions.
Dr. Knitter is Professor Emeritus of Theology at Xavier University, Cincinnati, Ohio, where he taught for 28 years before coming to Union. He serves on the Board of the International, Interreligious Peace Council, formed after the 1993 World Parliament of Religions to promote interreligious peace-making projects.
Most of Dr. Knitter's research and publications have dealt with religious pluralism and interreligious dialogue. Since his ground-breaking 1985 book, No Other Name?, he has been exploring how the religious communities of the world can cooperate in promoting human and ecological well-being. This is the topic of One Earth Many Religions: Multifaith Dialogue and Global Responsibility (1995) and Jesus and the Other Names: Christian Mission and Global Responsibility (1996), and his critical survey of Christian approaches to other religions: Introducing Theologies of Religions (Orbis Books, 2002). In 2005, Knitter edited a multifaith exploration titled The Myth of Religious Superiority (Orbis Books). His latest publication is Without Buddha I Could Not Be A Christian: A Personal Journey of Passing Over and Passing Back (Oneworld Publications, 2009).

Inside the Antec P280 Super Mid Tower Chassis
Our first look inside the P280 shows us things like the thumbscrews in the expansion slots, the room above the motherboard for internal water cooling, as well as the more typical bays on the right. The hardware and paperwork was left to move freely inside during transit.
The 5.25" bays use tool-less latches on this side of the bays and with use of metal tabs pressing on the other side of the drive, makes for a very solid fit with just the clips holding the drive in place.
Under the trio of optical drive bays, there is a pair of dedicated bays for 2.5" drives. The tabs on the side rails press against the drives and with just one thumbscrew; they get mounted securely in the chassis.
That leaves the six 3.5" or 2.5" drive bays continuing to the floor of the chassis. Each slot uses a removable tray that holds a 3.5" drive and also offers mounting for 2.5" drives in each tray. The left of the drives have clips placed on the rack to allow you to clip in a pair of 120mm fans if you wish to.
The motherboard tray in this mid tower offers room for boards up to XL-ATX in size! At the top is a pair of holes for wiring with as much metal removed for CPU cooler access as possible without weakening the chassis. To manage the wiring, Antec offers four more holes at the side and bottom with grommets and plenty of places to tie up the wiring.
In the back you find the third included fan in the P280. From the inside looking out, you can see that the back of the chassis is well ventilated and will allow for good front to back air flow through the additional mesh and open expansions slot covers.
Above the rear exhaust fan is where all the wiring gets tucked to control and power the trio of 120mm TwoCool Fans. In order to get power to these three fans, you will need to run a 4-pin Molex power lead to this panel.
Behind the motherboard tray there is up to 30mm of room for wiring in the deepest spots. To the left of the tray is a support bar that runs the height of the case and offers less room for wiring there. As you can see once the trays are removed, the hard drives have no obstructions on this side for the wiring.
To remove the front you must remove a pair of screws from the inside before you pull off the bezel. Once that is done you will find that the wiring is connected to the bezel and you need to address this area before you wire it to the motherboard.
On the other end of the wiring, you get connectivity for the HD Audio, native USB 3.0, USB 2.0, and in the back the power, reset, HDD and power LED wiring. The issue is that these are very short, and once connected, the front bezel will not come off. A bit more length in these wires would have been greatly appreciated!

A few weeks ago I was asking about engineered wood vs. solid hardwood over our slab. We decided to go solid, sought out a few bids, and were just about to go with one when our contractor mentioned another option. He said his flooring guy could lay solid hardwood on our slab with a special glue. I had always heard that solid hardwood on a slab without a subfloor is a big no no. It would save us 10K to go this route but boy would I hate to discover buckled strips from moisture down the road all for the 10K I wanted to save now. So, I thought I would ask you flooring experts to help steer us (well, mainly my DH who is hoping to save some $) in the right direction. Many thanks!!! |
Follow-Up Postings:
I vote no on this! I would need some big time warranty from the glue people and I would want to be assured that they are solvent and will be around a while. |

Gluing solid wood flooring directly to concrete involves more risk, requires extra care, and good adhesives/sealers. I have installed several solid wood floors directly to concrete and never experienced any problems. We were always very careful with moisture issues. Use good sense, follow the instructions, don't cut any corners, if you don't know the answer don't guess find someone that does know, and spend a little extra time to get it right. On the other hand I know of several installations done by others that have failed due to poor technique. There are installers who do these glue downs regularly with good success. Among people I know there is little confidence that most adhesive warrantees will cover much in the event of a failure. In addition you may get a certain percentage of boards that are not straight enough to install with glue. There is more discussion of moisture and concrete in the second half of the link below. |

I learned of a product called Elastilon today. You're supposed to be able to install any wood floor you want on a slab with it. It does look like it's GW's dreaded Lumber Liquidator's product. So now I'm wary. That is the only distributor coming up on their site. The company looks to be out of Canada. Has anyone used this product? |

I considered using Elastilon in an addition built on concrete slab but instead went with a floated engineered floor. It seems to be pretty new in this country (unfortunately sold only by LL), but I read some good reviews on a pro flooring website. The Youtube video makes it look like a fairly straight-forward installation, but like everything else, it's probably a bit more complicated in real life... It's very expensive for an underlayment, but may be worthwhile if it's effective and reduces labor costs. |
- Posted by Samantha111 (My Page) on Fri, Aug 12, 11 at 21:48
Yes, it does look like an easy method to install flooring. I'm surprised to see maybe even ceramic. Not too sure about that one. It runs $2/sf. In this case it would save quite a bit of labor just on floor prep. There's adhesive on the slab which would otherwise need to be removed. It also provides a moisture barrier so he said solid wood could be used. I believe he even said 3/4 inch. Looking at the installation instructions, it looks to lay loose on the slab. I wonder what it's like to walk on one of these floors. If it feels like a regular wood floor. Another concern I have is how easy it is to replace a board. Or if a board goes crooked while trying to install it and you're already into the adhesive stage if you're stuck with a gap. Particularly worrisome when someone else is doing the install and maybe not as picky as you'd be yourself. The site says it has a worldwide patent but the salesman said that type of product has been used in Europe for over 20 years successfully. It's only new to the US. I'm looking into floating floors due to the adhesive on the slab but don't want a fake hollow sounding floor. The flooring stores I've been to don't seem to have sample floatings installed for people to check them out. |
- Posted by beaniebakes (My Page) on Sat, Aug 13, 11 at 16:25
My concrete slab had a few areas of adhesive that had to be sanded down in order for the floor to be level enough for installation. I used Floor Muffler Ultra as an underlayment. It's a vapor barrier and sound reducer. It's gotten good reviews but so have other brands. My floor has been installed only a few weeks and I haven't noticed a hollow sound. That said, I've only walked on it barefoot or with sandals; it's not a high traffic room but I do plan to do a similar installation in an entry room. One thing I've noticed is that the floor seems to have a little "give" when walked on ... hard to explain, but it doesn't feel as firm as solid flooring... not necessarily negative but just different. |
We just bought the Elastilon product, and are planning on using it under 5/8 inch solid bamboo flooring. They did tell us that we you still need a vapor barrier that goes under the Elastilon. Also, you have 20 minutes of "play" time before the board becomes totally solid. |
- Posted by beaniebakes (My Page) on Mon, Aug 15, 11 at 13:16
ritamay ... please report back after you've used it. This would be so helpful to others given the lack of reviews on this product. Thanks. |
It might make a difference where you live, but at least here I have only heard of gluing down 1/2 mesquite, a very hard and stable wood, and I don't even get agreement on that. I would also be curious if you went ahead with it and how it worked out -- so far. |

Help Portrait is a movement of photographers who are using their time, equipment and expertise to give back to those who are less fortunate.
Hey all we are still looking for help at our location. Unfortunately we had some scheduling conflicts and most of our original team is not going to be able to help out.
We are going to be a small site (actually stationed at a trailer park) most likely we will have room for two main shooting stations. For Thanksgiving, Streetwise provided approximately 125 families with turkeys and sides, so we should have a good number of families to serve!)
We currently have one station set to have Reggie Barton as the lead photographer for station one.
I am hoping Dom Stanley and Mark Oxley will be able to help as well one as a photographer the other as a third photographer if room or editor / assistant photographer.
If that is the case we will need:
2 Greeters
2 Runners / Assistant Photographers
2 Editors
I am working on an address for the location at the moment. Street Wise has also offered for us to meet at their location 1750 Cedars Road – Lawrenceville, GA 30045 then ride to the site following their bus.
Tina would you mind sending me your email address?
thanks I copied it you can delete it if you want it removed.
I too am very glad we are going to be in the church! I think we should still plan on being at the church at 8:00.
Mark can you send me your email address please.
Just sent an email to the Street Wise Auburn team if you did not get and are a part of our team please reply to this post with your email address!

Latest News
- Jul 8, 201421st July 2014 will see the release of a monumental recording of Mozart's last three symphonies with the Concentus Musicus of Vienna, conducted by Nikolaus Harnoncourt. After 60 years of performing, studying and exploring the works, Harnoncourt is convinced that they were in fact intended by Mozart to be one work: an 'Instrumental Oratorium'.
"For decades I have felt that every performance of these three symphonies amounts to a voyage of discovery. From the E flat major introduction [Symphony No. 39] we find ourselves setting out on a rocky road that recalls nothing so much as a psychological drama and that leads ultimately to the mighty coda at the end of the final movement of the "Jupiter" Symphony. In short, this is a goal, a final destination. There is no going on after this." - Nikolaus Harnoncourt
Nikolaus Harnoncourt has performed, studied and explored Mozart's last three symphonies for over sixty years. The musical content of the three works, as well as the intriguing context of their composition, has plagued these years with questions. Now after all of this time, after sixty years of developing his period-ensemble Concentus Musicus of Vienna, Harnoncourt is ready to present the world with his interpretation of these legendary works: not as three symphonies, but as one work: Mozart's 'Instrumental Oratorium'.
"I am now fully convinced of this unity. Why are the themes and motifs so closely related as to be almost identical? Why is the language of those rhetorical figures that had long been used in music explored in such exhaustive detail here? It was usual to write and publish groups of works – as a rule in sets of three or six. But in this case Mozart wrote all three within a matter of weeks, without any obvious reason for doing so, whether in the form of a commission or with a concert in mind."
As Harnoncourt points out, the similarities of the motifs used in the three symphonies, the fact that the first symphony is the only one with a proper introduction and the last the only one with a finale, and the sense of a 'journey' through the three works, suggest the pieces have a unified musical structure. Coupled with this is the context of the symphonies' writing: these were the first major works that Mozart wrote without a commission or concert in mind, the last symphonies he ever wrote (even though he lived for a further three years), and all were completed in the Summer of 1788, a period during which Mozart was obsessed with Baroque music.
"Mozart must have had a plan: the instrumental Oratorium did not exist as a form. That was his idea. A genius like Mozart does not stumble upon a large-scale work while writing symphonies."
This is the first time that Harnoncourt has recorded the three symphonies with the Concentus Musicus of Vienna and it marks the culmination of his lifelong journey with the works. - Mar 3, 2014
Nikolaus Harnoncourt's recording of the Mozart Requiem is now available for a limited time at a special price as part of the iTunes Essentials series. This wonderful album collection presents superlative performances of essential masterpieces, all from high resolution master recordings, and all Mastered for iTunes.
- Oct 22, 2013
On January 27, 2014 Sony Classical releases a remarkable addition to Nikolaus Harnoncourt's discography: Combining symphonic grandeur with light-footed dances and soloistic virtuoso display, Mozart's great Posthorn-Serenade from 1779 is the ideal pièce de resistance for Harnoncourt and his ensemble, the Concentus Musicus Wien. Their interpretation, captured live at the Vienna Musikverein, is complemented with a buoyant rendering of Mozart's much-loved Haffner symphony.
- Apr 15, 2013
A monster concert featuring some 600 performers in Vienna's Court Riding School on 29 November 1812 led to the formation of the "Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde" (Society of the Friends of Music), and this was celebrated two centuries later in the form of a reconstruction of that memorable concert from 1812 under the direction of Nikolaus Harnoncourt. On the programme, then as now, was Timotheus oder Die Gewalt der Musik (Timotheus, or The Power of Musick), the German version of Handel's Alexander's Feast that Mozart himself had prepared. Find more details on the album here.

Captured live at two concerts in June 2012 at the Vienna Musikverein, this recording sheds a new light on two of Mozart's mature piano concerti. Nikolaus Harnoncourt teamed up with the legendary pianist Rudolf Buchbinder to record this repertoire for the first time with his ensemble, the Concentus Musicus Wien. The combination of a historic fortepiano and original instruments creates unusual colouring and is a unique listening experience.
- Mar 16, 2012
Mozart's presumably best-known opera, The Magic Flute, opens the series of new opera productions of the 2012 Salzburg Festival. Nikolaus Harnoncourt will lead the Mozart production on historic instruments.
Alexander Pereira, director of the Salzburg Festival, says: "It is not only a first for Salzburg, but also for Nikolaus Harnoncourt to perform this work in this sound-world in Salzburg, together with Concentus Musicus, bringing his entire life's experience to bear on this production, and I am infinitely grateful to him for this gift," Pereira expressed his delight.
- Mar 1, 2012
For the first time, the Cologne College of Music and Dance has awarded an honorary doctorate to an outstanding artist. With Nikolaus Harnoncourt they have honoured an artist who represents ideally the broad educational programme of a music college with the wide range of his own musical, scholarly and teaching activities.
On 10th June 2011, Harnoncourt publicly rehearsed and explained to the audience works by Muffat, Biber and others together with the ensemble of the Cologne college's Early Music Institute. The official doctorate ceremony was held afterwards in the chamber music room.
- Mar 1, 2012
Dance as an expression of great social and musical change: Nikolaus Harnoncourt traces the rise of the waltz which accompanied the social revolutions of the 19th century and shows how its origins can be found in the dances of Mozart. In doing so, he introduces us to a radically new sound world far removed from the notions of waltz as easy entertainment - played on original instruments, among them ten different types of trumpet and five different kinds of clarinet, these works sparkle with a many-faceted and finely nuanced diversity of sound.

Hi all1 looking for some overwintering advice. I live in waynesburg pa, which is zone 6 (but i don't trust that because our winters are so variable and weird, so I look for things hardy to zone 5). i live in a log cabin, which is never by any stretch of the imagination warm-- it can be as cold inside as it is outside if no one is home to keep those home fires burning. I have 2 yellow bleeding heart vines in 15" pots that were given to me as gifts, so I would really like to keep them alive over the winter. i have found conflict info about their hardiness, ranging from one 5 to zone 8. who knows. any suggestions about how to store these plants so they might make it through the winter? |
Follow-Up Postings:
You might try posting this in the vines forum, or do a search to see if overwintering has already been discussed. I see on that it should be hardy to 30F or so. It looks like a beautiful plant. I do keep several tropicals inside over the winter (altho it never gets colder than 58F in my house!), some are dormant in pots in the cool basement (sweet potatoes, calla, dahlias, amaryllis) and others live in front of a sunny window being watered about once a week. I don't know which treatment would work for bleeding heart vine, but it sounds like it should be keep-able as long as your interior stays above 30F. |

Phil Olbrechts, former attorney for the city of Monroe, is one of three attorneys the city is engaging to replace hearing examiner John Galt.
Galt, who had been city hearing examiner for 10 years, asked for an increase in his hourly rate in September.
That led city manager Gene Brazel to realize that the city hadn't reviewed his contract for some time.
"Typically every few years, we review contracts and go out for proposals," he said.
The city put out a request for proposals and invited Galt to submit one. He declined.
The city then decided to try to find a roster of attorneys to handle hearings on a rotating basis.
Former city attorney Phil Olbrechts, who works through the law firm Ogden, Murphy and Wallace, put in a proposal and was given a contract. Two other attorneys are currently negotiating contracts.
Brazel said that the amount the three attorneys will earn is "in the ballpark" of what Galt had asked.
Hearing examiners typically resolve appeals when citizens or others question a decision made by a city body.

Inferring Meaningful Pathways in Weighted Metabolic Networks

Received 16 January 2005; revised 6 September 2005; accepted 27 September 2005. Edited by J. Thornton. Available online 17 October 2005.
An approach is presented for computing meaningful pathways in the network of small molecule metabolism comprising the chemical reactions characterized in all organisms. The metabolic network is described as a weighted graph in which all the compounds are included, but each compound is assigned a weight equal to the number of reactions in which it participates. Path finding is performed in this graph by searching for one or more paths with lowest weight. Performance is evaluated systematically by computing paths between the first and last reactions in annotated metabolic pathways, and comparing the intermediate reactions in the computed pathways to those in the annotated ones. For the sake of comparison, paths are computed also in the un-weighted raw (all compounds and reactions) and filtered (highly connected pool metabolites removed) metabolic graphs, respectively. The correspondence between the computed and annotated pathways is very poor (<30%) in the raw graph; increasing to 65% in the filtered graph; reaching 85% in the weighted graph. Considering the best-matching path among the five lightest paths increases the correspondence to 92%, on average. We then show that the average distance between pairs of metabolites is significantly larger in the weighted graph than in the raw unfiltered graph, suggesting that the small-world properties previously reported for metabolic networks probably result from irrelevant shortcuts through pool metabolites. In addition, we provide evidence that the length of the shortest path in the weighted graph represents a valid measure of the "metabolic distance" between enzymes.
We suggest that the success of our simplistic approach is rooted in the high degree of specificity of the reactions in metabolic pathways, presumably reflecting thermodynamic constraints operating in these pathways. We expect our approach to find useful applications in inferring metabolic pathways in newly sequenced genomes.
