Tonight I came the closest I ever have to pulling my gun and shooting in defense. I am glad to report that I kept as level a head as possible during the event, realizing I may have to draw my gun but only as a last resort and the way things transpired I did not have to pull or use my gun.
Because I didn't pull my gun and use it, I am at home typing this here and not being interviewed by LEO downtown. And I will not forever be that guy in the neighborhood.
Long story short, a known psycho neighborhood dog got loose and attacked me but more so attacked my dog on our nightly walk tonight. The dog bore down on what is his pelvis/inner thigh, and I had to beat the other dog to get him to release my dog. When the dog didn't release my dog after the first few punches it did cross my mind to pull my LCP and shoot the other dog until it released my dog and the threat was ended. I am glad I didn't. My dog is nicked up but so far ok, he may show more injury overnight. My dog is almost 13 years old and getting to be pretty decrepit already without being attacked. I am not injured.
the long version
We were walking our regular route and were a block away from home. There is a Golden Retriever on that block that goes ape anytime it sees another dog. We have never come close to it because it goes nuts even blocks away if it can see any other dogs. It is a dog that every time I see the dog on a walk with its master, I put a hand in my pocket and grip whichever gun I'm carrying knowing that if it gets away from its owner, he will be on us like white on rice. I walk on the other side of the street from where this dog lives just to give me more space to react, just in case.
So there we are on the other side of the street when I see this dog hard charging from the side we're walking on (he lives on the other side remember?) and is upon us in an instant. I'd say 2 seconds, so not much time to react. The dog attacks my old dog (almost 13 years old) and he falls to the ground and the attacking dog clamps down on his pelvic area. I know that my dog cannot defend himself properly or run away and as much as I know that it is a bad idea to get in-between two dogs, I had to. I knew not to pull on the attacking dog because it would only cause my dog more injury. So...
So with my left hand I grabbed at the dog's collar and started punching with my right fist. I don't know how many punches it took, I think three but it may have been more, I really don't know. I didn't have an adrenaline dump and its not like time slowed down for me but I really have no clue how many times I hit this dog to get him to release my dog. The full attack probably only took 15 seconds, 30 at most.
When I first hit the dog and it didn't release mine I did think that I may have to shoot this dog if it won't stop attacking. Luckily, a few punches to the top of the dog's head and the dog released my dog. Fully gripping its collar I violently pulled it away from my dog and thrust it to the ground and held it by the collar forcing it by the back of the neck and body into the grass. Once it didn't have access to my dog the psycho dog became very compliant and was submissive to me and though tense was not barking, growling or showing any more hyper aggression. I yelled, "Whose dog is this?"
While I held the dog I realized that my dog would be ok but maybe this dog will attack me and there is still a chance that I may have to pull my gun and shoot it. A neighbor came out and took the other dog and another neighbor lady came out and took full control of the dog and took it back onto her property. The second lady is watching the dog while its owners are on vacation and she knows its issues and tried to prevent it from getting out. But, it was able to open her door to get out of her house and attack us. We looked over my dog, she apologized profusely, we exchanged info in case of vet bills etc, it was as cordial as possible, we were both reasonable and emotions didn't flare. And here is why...
I didn't open fire in my neighborhood and make a bad incident even worse. The following are my take aways from the incident.
1. I didn't care about caliber or trigger style of the gun I was carrying. All I cared about was that I did have a gun to go to if needed and was glad to have it.
I normally pocket carry my LCR but the pants I wore today dictated to having just the LCP in my pocket.
2. I'm glad I carry with a round chambered because it would have been impossible to rack the slide of any gun and get a good shot off before this dog was on us and attacking. If I had to chamber a round while intervening between the two dogs, I would have had to let go of the attacking dog and give it a greater chance of injuring my dog while I rack the slide or give it an opportunity to attack me. You will not always have a free hand when you're defending yourself.
3. It's a good idea to carry a non-lethal alternative, but I never even thought to go for my OC spray during the incident.
4. Shoot your gun and take a life as a very last resort.
I could have been a hothead and immediately pulled my gun and tried to shoot the dog when it first came at us. A. It moved too quickly to really get a good draw and aim and B. it was in the middle of a neighborhood and every round you shoot has a lawyer attached to it. When I was physically confronting the dog I could have pulled the gun and probably be justified in shooting it point blank, but...I would have to deal with LEO. I may have my gun confiscated. I may incur legal fees to justify my use of a deadly weapon. I would forever be that guy who shot a dog in the neighborhood, even if everyone knows that the dog was crazy, I am still that guy. I would open up a whole can of worms that would best be avoided.
If the dog hadn't released, I would have shot. But I'm glad to have kept my head and not immediately and irrevocably changed my life from this night forward.

Louisiana state senators have rejected a bid to display the Ten Commandments on the grounds of the state capitol in Baton Rouge.
The proposal had called for a display up to six feet tall and four feet wide. It would have been placed somewhere among the historic buildings at the capitol complex.
The senators said the threat of a lawsuit was too high and the costs of such litigation would be too expensive.
A Senate committee voted 5-2 against a House-backed proposal in favor of the display after senators noted similar monuments have drawn legal challenges around the country.
The bill said private groups would pay for the monument but it didn't include any provision for the cost of a lawsuit.
"It's going to walk us right into litigation," said Sen. Rob Marionneaux, D-Livonia, a lawyer.

How to Choose Healthy on Vacation
Spring break, weekend trips, camping, summer vacation - we look forward to any of these breaks in our normal routine. I was recently asked how to make healthy choices while on vacation. Unfortunately, many people gain several pounds while away, but do you know what? It's possible to have a good time and still make healthy choices.
With a little bit of effort you can still work out to a certain degree, make good food choices for most of your meals, and choose nutritious snacks. I went to one of my favorite websites - Livestrong and found a great article for you to read here.
Check it out so you can go on your trip, have a great time and maintain a healthy lifestyle while doing so. It is possible!
See you next week. If you're new to my blog, please take the time to check out my video's which you can find at the top of the page, under the MY VIDEO TAB. Thanks for stopping by!

Eating the Right Foods at the Right Time
Knowing what to eat and when to eat it is a difficult thing to determine. Your body requires different types of fuel depending on what you're doing. What you eat after a tough workout session is totally different from what you'll need to eat while sitting through a meeting at work.
So go over to this Livestrong website to get some great tips on what and when to eat.
Fresh fruits and vegetables are going to start to come in season. What are you eating? Right now I'm still eating apples everyday, as well as fresh oranges and watermelon.
Spring is here and the snow is melting. Who is getting outside and starting their walking, hiking or running routines?

Boost Your Metabolism
Did you know that there are ways to help boost your metabolism? If you speed up your metabolism, you help your body convert calories from food into fuel.
Eat good snacks - like carrots, melons and grapes. If you deprive your body of too many calories, it goes into starvation mode and your metabolism slows down. So eat small portions of these foods throughout the day.
Take vitamins - the B vitamins can boost energy and thus raise your metabolism.
Most people think that being on a diet means they have to starve themselves Not so! Try eating more frequently, just be sure to choose healthy foods in moderation.
For more information on boosting your metabolism, check out this Livestrong website. I also did a post about it here.
What form of exercise are you going to do this week?

Walking is Good for You
A lot of people are apprehensive about exercising or starting a work out program. What to do, how many reps, how much weight, whats the best exercise to do? But starting out doesn't have to be hard at all. I started by simply walking and it was a great decision for me. I still walk on my treadmill almost every day. I like to walk at an incline and at a quick pace. But you can start out slower at first and work up to a good power walk.
Think about it -
- Walking is relatively easy to do
- You can do it almost anyplace
- You can do it alone or with a buddy
- It doesn't require a gym membership or any special equipment
Walking is very low impact, so it's a great beginner program and as you gain strength and endurance, you can add more distance or progress to running. Another plus is that it gets you outside and breathing some fresh air.
If you'd like to read a little more about the benefits of power walking, then go to Livestrong.com and read this short article.
Spring is almost here. Get yourself a good pair of walking shoes and start a walking program.
I'd like to welcome some new followers to my blog. I have some videos that you may be interested in watching. Go to the VIDEO'S TAB at the top of the page for the direct links.
See you next week!

One of the best ways that new parents, grandparents, and babysitters can prepare for the unexpected is to take classes in first aid and infant cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Knowing what to do in the event of an emergency will help you remain calm, think quickly, and take action with confidence so that you can help your child. Here's how to handle some of the most common injuries and emergencies that affect children under a year of age.
Head and eye injuries
Head bumps and eye irritations should be treated with care -- babies' developing brains and eyes are very fragile. Even if it doesn't seem serious, it's a good idea to check with the doctor.
Head injuries
This type of injury is common in young children because a child's head is relatively large in proportion to the rest of her body. A child who falls from a significant height (two or more feet) or is in a motor vehicle accident could have a head, neck, or back injury. Call 911 if your baby loses consciousness, has a seizure, oozes blood or fluid from the ears or nose, has bruising around the eyes or behind the ears, or acts lethargic. Do not move her, as this could cause further injury. Call a doctor even for apparently mild head injuries; your child might have suffered a concussion.
Eye injuries
All eye injuries (common ones include bruising around the eye, scratches on the cornea, and cigarette burns) should be evaluated by a doctor. If an irritating substance is splashed into the eye, flush it with water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical care. Don't rub the eye, apply medication, or try to remove an embedded object yourself.

AMD's move to snap up graphics card maker ATI Technology was met with some curiosity by industry analysts, but generally the deal was considered a sensible move for the processor maker.
The deal was described as one with a far reaching impact on AMD with little upfront benefit.
The transaction, which still requires the approval of each company's board, was announced on July 24 and has AMD paying $4.2 billion in cash and 57 million shares of AMD common stock for the Ontario, Canada-based ATI. Company executives said once completed the acquisition will create an entirely new AMD, one capable of creating integrated solutions in the same fashion as Intel.
Historically AMD only supplied processors to vendors. While this gave manufacturers the flexibility to configure their systems more precisely, non-integrated graphics solutions put a greater strain on a PC's resources, said Jim McGregor, a principal analyst with InStat.
This situation is something AMD's customers had been requesting and should boost the company's ability to compete with Intel in the corporate computing market, said Steve Baker, The NPD Group's industry analysis VP.
Another result should be better AMD mobile processors, McGregor said, an area where AMD has lagged behind Intel. AMD is not likely to enjoy an immediate return on its investment as it will take time for AMD to learn how to integrate ATI's graphics technology with the processors, he said.
Baker was unsure why ATI entered the deal.
"I'm not sure what ATI's benefit is, it will lose a ton of business to Intel and its notebook business, too," he said.
McGregor believes ATI would have eventually experienced a fall off in sales to Intel anyway due to that firm's ability to create its own graphics chipsets.
He sees the real loser being NVIDIA, which had partnered with AMD and Intel and now neither company needs its products. ATI still plans to work with NVIDIA.
Both analysts expect AMD to take a hands-off approach to ATI's aftermarket graphics card business because it is the area where ATI uses the aftermarket to push its technological boundaries in order to attract the PC enthusiasts who require the best graphics cards available. This technology is then shifted over to its chipset business.

Has anyone tried an electronic bug zapper for controlling fungus gnats / fruit flies? Size wise these pests are about the same as mosquitoes but I'm not sure they're attracted to UV light. I noticed a small model advertised for $30 recently but hesitated because of the power required (not a very green solution). Perhaps it would only have to be on for a day or two at a time? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I have that one that looks like a badminton racquet but the gnats slipped through the webbing. I scored more with mosquitoes, which are bigger than gnats around here. |
There is only one model of bug zapper I know of that will work on both flies, mosquito, and gnats. If you are still interested, let me know and I'll dig out the box it came in. For best result, use bug zapper, with fly paper, and my insecticide: 12 oz. Pinesol 1/4 cup Dawn 1/4 cup Ammonia dash of Iso Alcohol enough water to fill up a 'Spraymaster' heavy duty spray bottle. Set it to mist. Will take flying varmints right out of the air! Plus not as chemically noxious as usual insecticides. Note: never tried it on bees or wasps. |

Book synopsis
Through detailed in-depth exegeses of Proust's literary texts (A la Recherche du temps perdu, Jean Santeuil, and Contre Sainte-Beuve), Judaism in Marcel Proust: Anti-Semitism, Philo-Semitism, and Judaic Perspectives in Art explains anti-Semitism and philo-Semitism as present in actual French literary texts. Unlike other studies about Proust and Judaism, the narrative in this book is in English; the focus is on the actual French texts, not on Proust's biography. Primary Judaic sources such as the Hebrew Bible, the Babylonian Talmud, Moses Maimonides' Mishneh Torah, and Rashi's commentaries illuminate Proust's texts and skillfully demonstrate their anti-Semitic and philo-Semitic subtexts.
The principal Proustian themes that are examined in depth include, first of all, the anti-Semitism and philo-Semitism of the characters as informed by Jean-Paul Sartre's Réflexions sur la queston juive; second, Christian interpretations of Judaic biblical references and their anti-Semitic connotations as well as the philo-Semitic references to the Hebrew Bible and to Judaic culture and ritual contained in the Proust texts; third, the importance of references to art in Proust's texts and their Judaic significance.
Written in a lively, clear, and accessible style, Judaism in Marcel Proust engages the reader, both Proustophile and Proust scholar alike. It would be an excellent choice for the reading list of courses on Proust as well as for French history and social psychology courses on anti-Semitism and philo-Semitism relating to the Dreyfus case and the Belle Epoque.

Le Clos: 'kind, humble schoolboy'
Comment on this storyDurban - The congratulations are pouring in for Chad Le Clos, but for a Durban woman the men's 200m butterfly last night led to a sleepless night.
Penzance Primary School's tea lady, Ellen Khanyile, said she was so moved by Le Clos's achievement that she could not sleep after watching him celebrate his gold medal.
Khanyile said the polite and humble young man was the same when he was a boy. "He must have been in Grade 1, and he used to come to the kitchen and help me. He also used to help me carry the washing to the line," she said.
Khanyile, who had been in the school's employ for 22 years, said Le Clos sought her out whenever he visited the school.
"When he won last night, I could not stop crying.
"I didn't sleep at all after that.
"He's more than a (pupil), he's my grandchild, like all of the children here. I love them all," she said. – Daily News

When Milgard set out to create a better wood window, we re-imagined just about everything. Essence Series windows are now the wood window of choice for homeowners, architects and builders; and a popular choice for new construction, renovation and remodel projects and historical restorations.
Featuring stunning wood interiors and durable fiberglass exteriors, these windows surpass wood, composite and clad windows in performance and beauty.
Essence Series Windows — Because quality never goes out of style.
What is fiberglass? It's a composite structural material consisting of fiber reinforcements, typically glass, bound together in a resin matrix. Used in many applications from household fixtures (tub surrounds) to car bodies and aircraft fuselage. By using fiberglass as a structural core and exterior, Essence Series windows are strong, durable and easy to maintain in any climate.
Milgard's own fiberglass pultrusion process enables us to make the complex profiles required for the exterior look of painted wood windows. Because fiberglass is known for its strength, durability and performance, Essence exteriors:
Our proprietary powder-coat process uses a similar electrostatic technique as the auto industry to produce baked-on, sag-free, extremely durable exterior finishes that:
Essence Series windows and doors have an exterior coating so tough, an AAMA Gold Label Certification is expected upon completion of testing.
Essence Series windows and doors have the energy efficiency advantage with Milgard's 3D® and 3D MAX® energy packages which maximize performance with innovative SunCoat®, SunCoatMAX®, Low-E coatings and EdgeGard™ or EdgeGardMAX™ spacers. (3D MAX availability is based on region.) There is also a wider glazing pocket for further energy efficient customization (such as triple glazing).
Taller sash stop on casement windows accommodates heavier hardware and enables windows to carry additional weight of triple glazing and other additions without additional bracing or exterior arms and limiters.
New integrated water drainage system ensures any moisture that might get into a window frame drains out and never touches wood components. Hidden weep system provides clean exterior appearance
A patent-pending secure connecting system combines wood and fiberglass parts for an extremely weather-tight window that operates smoothly and easily, and simplifies repairs. This Low Thermal Transmittance is a natural insulator because it won't conduct heat or cold, has minimal condensation and is promotes homeowner comfort. Because of this connecting system, there will be no unsightly nail holes or staples.
Essence Series windows and doors can play an important role in obtaining the U.S. Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design Green Building Rating System (LEED) certification. By optimizing energy performance, increasing ventilation and using low-emitting materials, paints, coatings and recycled content, Essence Series can contribute to your LEED rating.
Essence features the award winning SmartTouch® Lock system on double hung and horizontal sliding windows. A classic spoon lock is also available for homes with traditional architecture. These windows also have integrated tilt latches recessed into the sash to keep a clean look. Casement and awning windows have sleek and elegant nested operator handle and sash lock.
Homeowners will benefit from the Full Lifetime Warranty standard on all Essence Series windows and doors. The Milgard Full Lifetime Warranty includes parts and labor for as long as the homeowner owns the home. It also includes Glass Breakage Coverage and if warranty service is ever needed, Milgard will send local, factory-trained Service Technicians for repairs. Compare this warranty to a typical fiberglass warranty of 20-years or a 10-year warranty on wood windows, and a 10-year warranty on the glass.
Building our windows and doors and servicing our customers locally means shorter lead times and no extra upcharges. With one of the nation's largest window and door companies nearby means good service to your clients long after you complete the job.
No matter the size or complexity of your order, Milgard will provide professional support, knowledgeable staff and well-trained dealers to help you through each phase of your project.

Hi there, we are planning a renovation to the exterior of our house. We would like to bring out (or create) some of the charm that has been removed in the previous 70 years of renovations the house has undergone. Our plan is to push out the area that currently has an overhang (so that the living room can be bigger and more square) and we need to replace all the windows on that side of the house but other than that, we are open to ideas. We are hoping to keep as much light as possible and also would like to better define the front door (as this is the front of our house and nobody can ever figure out what door they are supposed to knock on). We are thinking about moving the door to the centre of the house and putting in larger windows with transoms across the front, on either side of the door. We could also replace the bay windows upstairs, making them bigger or better defined somehow. We have been to a designer and paid for a design, but they did not listen to what we wanted and instead produced a very modern look with faux stone cladding and glass railings - exactly what we are not looking for. Any ideas? |

What a lovely garden you have. I think when you bring out the front wall the face of your home will be too flat. Could you also bring the new door forward a bit, making a small entrance porch with a roof, perhaps a mansard roof like over the bay windows upstairs. |
- Posted by mtnrdredux (My Page) on Thu, Apr 3, 14 at 7:20
Part of signalling the front door is the path and lighting, and another aspect is the door color (usually the front door is not the same as the other trim). When you bring the LR forward, I would then create a new patio in front of it and give it a roof. The entrance also needs a roof or at least trellis. To me, the bays look too far apart. can you add a window between them? Maybe one of the bay components? |

Did previous owners add on to the front of the house? Could this at one point have been a four square? Is there an example if your neighbourhood of a house you like that is similar to yours? |
Here is a link that might be useful: Four square

Wow. When I looked at your pic, I thought it was the back of the house. I think it's because the patio looks like a patio, and the french doors look like a way to the patio, and there's no front walkway or anything that says welcome, and even the lighting by the door is not symmetrical. So those are things you can definitely fix. Where is the street front and where is the driveway where people park? Is the front door visible from where guests park? If not, it's always more challenging to help them find their way...landscaping helps tremendously with that. Before I'd move the front door, I'd think about what's going on on the inside as well. Do you have a foyer area? If not, this would be a great opportunity to create one. Much more gracious to separate the entry from the living room. Second, in order to tell people where to go, the front door needs to be most prominent on the facade. Also, it is nice for guests to have some kind of shelter while they are at the door. So if you have the ability to add on, I would think about adding a porch with a hip roof to repeat the lines and color of the roof, and have it supported by posts and railing that will make it more obvious where the front door is. Definitely change the style of the front door too so it's more like a front door. And move the downspout to a corner, not in the middle of the wall. I agree the bays are small, but again, it depends on what's going on inside as to how much they can be changed. |
Can you back off and show the house and yard from the street? |
It looks like an incredibly beautiful place you're in. Agree with Annie: Problem #1 is that the front of your house looks like the rear of a house. Where IS the front door??? I would definitely replace the bay windows. They really make the front look like a rear, IMO, as do the French doors, frankly. I would also pullout the LR area since that will give you more sunlight. Black or bronze windows, including grids (if windows have them). I would stay away from windows with the flimsy pop-out grids. They look awful; they break then look worse; they completely cheapen the look of windows. Better to go without any than with those, IMO. I'd replace the siding with stained cedar shingles to give the house a more rustic look to fit in with its environs. Totally agree with windows with transoms, as well as side panels. Where is the front door??? Not the French doors. |

Somewhere in the world, alone and abandoned in the non-space of a baggage-handling center, is my suitcase. Air France lost it five days ago. The details of how this happened are commonplace and banal. I was headed for Florence. The bag took off on its own for Mumbai.
Is there any sight, I wonder, as forlorn as that of an unclaimed valise?You see it all the time in airports, a luggage orphan stranded alongside the baggage carousel. Sometimes it is segregated near the rubber flaps of the entry port. Sometimes it is trapped behind stanchions or webs. Sometimes it is covered in a protective net that makes it look like the catch of the day.
The carousel keeps revolving, but the bag is going nowhere, except at last into the keeping of handlers who will scan and log it and then send it off…well, where?It doesn't matter. Yours is one of thousands that are misplaced every day. I say "misplaced" because lost is apparently a misnomer, since most of the time "We know where it is," as an aviation expert with an existentialist cast of mind once remarked to a congressional panel. "It just isn't where it's supposed to be."
It was not until I was parted from my bag that I realized how sentimentally attached to it I am. The bag itself is nothing terribly special; a big boxy thing with fitted leather bumpers, it looks like a sample case for someone who sells large and unwieldy goods—prosthetic limbs, perhaps. It is built of vulcanized fiberboard over a frame of ash wood, and made using methods apparently unaltered since its English manufacturer started business in 1897. Before fashionable types became aware of the label's existence, Globe-Trotter suitcases seemed to me to be favored mainly by minor English nobles and persons who resemble the lady ornithologist in Hitchcock's The Birds. They were unhip and that is why they were cool.
Now J.Crew has the bags on offer in exclusive colors, and Vivre, the catalogue for whatever high-net-worth types remain in the world, sells them in limited-edition colors. The industrial designer Ross Lovegrove has even taken a crack at updating the clunky Globe-Trotter design. Will the buyers of Lovegrove's Air Cabin cases feel the same affection for their luggage that I do, the same little frisson of nervous anticipation when the bag appears from behind the rubber curtains and starts to make its way toward me?I imagine they will, and not just because they can then get on with their journeys.

I've been taking photographs for over a decade. Somewhere along the line I lost my inspiration and creativity, which took the joy out of it - and I realise now that this coincided with my swap from film to digital. In 2011 I stumbled across lomography.com and immediately felt an itch to swap my shiny new Nikon D700 for my old trusty workhorse F100 that has been with me through everything I've learnt about photography.
Choosing one photo from the past year is surprisingly easy for me. This photo I had been envisioning for some time, and it turned out exactly the way I wanted it to. I'm not so much a shoot-from-the-hip kind of gal, I prefer a bit of pre-planning in my images.
One of my favourite photographs ever is Steve Double's portrait of Nick Cave in Sao Paulo – if you know it, the inspiration for this portrait of my boyfriend in Glasgow is evident. This was taken at the top of The Lighthouse (an exhibition centre, not an actual light house), after climbing a long spiral staircase. The Glasgow weather was its usual grey windy self, but the sun just managed to squeeze some light through the cloud cover, which gives the sort of divine light behind his head.
I was using Kodak Tri-X, which was the film I learnt to shoot with and process myself all those years ago. I developed it at home in my bathroom (something I hadn't done for some time), and it came out perfect – I love the grain, something digital can never copy or do better. Analogue photos "breathe", which is why they are capable of capturing so much more emotion and atmosphere.
A big thank you to all you lomographers out there who inspired me to return to film and fall in love with photography all over again!
Happy 2012!

Bison Theatre
225 E. Main Street,
1 person favorited this theater
The Bison Theatre opened in October 1927 with seating for 1,080. It was located on Main Street at Philadelphia Street. After it closed in the mid-1950's, the former Bison Theatre was converted to a clothing store, later became a church, and today houses an antique mall. Any further information on this theater would be appreciated.
Recent comments (view all 8 comments)
The Bison Theatre was located on the corner of Main Street and Philadelphia. It was built by Griffith Theatres, later called Video Independent Theatres of Oklahoma City. The theatre seated over 1000 people originally. It had a domed ceiling with twinkling lights to resemble stars. The theatre had a working stage and could accomodate traveling stage shows and entertainers as well as movies. In 1947, with the opening of the Hornbeck Theatre in Shawnee, the Bison was changed to a second run policy. In 1954 Jones Theatres, Inc. partnered with Video in the Bison's ownership. The Bison was a victim of television in the mid-1950's when it closed. The V-shaped marquee on the Bison was moved to the Ritz Theatre in Shawnee during a major renovation of the Ritz in 1966. The building was sold and first became a western wear clothing store, later a church and now an antique mall. The stage area is still intact in the antique mall.
On below site, historic photo of the Shawnee Bison Theatre is mistakenly listed as the one in Oklahoma City.

Seems OHS corrected their error. Both the Shawnee Bison Theatre and Enid Aztec (minus balcony) were sister houses, designed by Carl Boller. To compare images, on above post type in name "Aztec", "Bison", or "Esquire".

Ray, In your post on 10-8-07 you said the Bison in Shawnee and the Aztec in Enid "were sister houses, designed by Carl Boller." In my research on the Aztec I haven't been able to verify the identity of that theater's architect. May I ask the source of your information? Thanks for your help!
The Film Daily of October 21, 1927, reported that the Griffith circuit's new Bison Theatre in Shawnee had been set to open between October 16th and 18th.

I'd like help designing a horseshoe shaped 6'X 8' garden on the south side (full sun) of my house in front of a bay window. It's the center section of an existing perennial garden with peonies, shastas, delphiniums, etc. I had a garden there, but it was taken over by Bouncing Bet. I had to use Roundup on everything that was in there and now I'm in the process of removing rocks and roots and amending the soil. It will be a little mounded up by the time I'm done.
I want mostly perennials with maybe some annuals for instant color. In the past, I have picked some perennials that take over. What can I plant together that will behave and provide color from spring through fall? I'd like a high center to the garden, but not so high as to block my view from the bay window. (I know a picture would help, but I'm not that computer savvy!) I have deer problems. Thanks! |

I know nothing about what deer will or won't eat, so I can't suggest plants, but I'd like to suggest some additional information you could provide: If you don't want the bay window blocked, please tell us how far off the ground it is. Is the 6' side against the house, or the 8' side? (8' I assume, but maybe not.) Do the other beds on this side of the house contain anything evergreen? Any deciduous shrubs? What colors are the other beds on this side of the house? Any colors you want to include in this bed? Any colors to stay away from? |
