I'm surprised Mike Huckabee didn't show up in Jena, LA, Monday to goose-step along with a group of fellow white supremacists in a rally attended mostly by media.
The rally that wasn't seemed tailor made for Huckabee, who faltering Presidential run is turning into the campaign that wasn't.
Huckabee proved he can pander to hate and racism in pure Republican style last week when he jumped into the debate over whether or not the Confederate battle flag should fly at the state house in South Carolina.
His defense of the right to fly the symbol of prejudice was a lame, last-minute attempt to bring out the hate vote. It didn't work. Huckabee lost South Carolina to John McCain.
So Huckabee did an about face and spent Martin Luther King Day in a church in Atlanta, acting like he really gives a damn about civil rights.
Which left his fellow hate mongers in Jena to march pretty much alone.
Reports The Associated Press:
A crowd mostly made up of members of the media listened as four white separatists demanded white rights, severe prosecution of six black teens accused of beating a white school mate and an end to the Martin Luther King holiday.
But the speeches didn't last long.
The "Jena Justice Day" planned Monday by the white supremacist Nationalist Movement ended about two hours earlier than organizers had planned, with most participants leaving long before that.
Now before you get all hot and bothered and start yelling that this is just another Yankee tirade against the proud old South I have to say, in the interest of full disclosure, that I'm a son of the South — born and raised in Dixie.
I live in a Blue Ridge Mountain community where the stars and bars flies in front of single wides along many country lanes and covers the back windows of too many pickup trucks. Virginia State Troopers wear a blue and gray uniform modeled after a Confederate officers garb and they drive patrol cars pained blue and gray.
Like most sons of the South I can find a few relatives who fought against what is routinely called "the war of northern aggression" or simply "the recent unpleasantness."
When my Illinois-born wife came to Virginia, she looked around at all our battlefield parks and memorials and asked: "My God, how many monuments would you have if you had actually won the war?"
Many Southerners wear their Confederate heritage on their sleeves and their flagpoles and their trucks.
Not this one.
The American flag flies at our house. When I see video footage of the protest in Jena, where a modified version of the Confederate stars and bars was waved as a symbol of racism and white supremacy, I want to puke.
Like it or not, the Confederate battle flag has been co-opted by the hate mongers as something to wave proudly when they march to showcase their prejudice. Too often, I've seen the stars and bars waved with a swastika sewn into the middle.
It's time to put the Confederate battle flag and other such symbols into a museum as part of a display of a war that should never have had to be fought and to remember a period of shame for this nation that must never be forgotten.
the best reply to this slanderer and da ja vue all over again comes from the old testament."and balaam's ass spoke."
You would think that a "son of the South" and an expert on the Confederate flag would actually know the name of the flag. Stars and Bars? No. It's called the Southern Cross.Next time try to use the correct name so you won't look so ignorant.
"And do you think it's any accident that those same southern states are the ones filled to the brim with born-again fundamentalist Christians (like Baptists, for example)who think George Bush is a great guy and have absolutely no problem whatsoever with invading Middle Eastern countries which did us no harm whatsoever, all in the name of Israel, the Old Testament and the (purely fabricated) "rapture?" Or, to put it more bluntly, the people that think Blacks and Arabs are lowlife and should be slaves to Whites and Jews?"
this whole post smacks of a serious prejudice against these people (assuming, incorrectly, that we can lump them all together) and i've found southerners and baptists to be very hospitable.
fundamentalist arabs on the otherhand, it seems, are the picture of tolerance

Sorry Doug, but you have been contaminated by your liberal Illinois wife. You have forsaken your Southern heritage.
Please tell me why I should forsake my gg grandfather and two ggg uncles that fought for state rights!? None of these heroes owned slaves and enlisted for the defence of Dixie. Should they be dishonour by me because a few hate mongers disparage our banners as you are our Southern heritage, or the PC'ers that are destroying the lives of the majority, how bout the race-baiters that fatten their wallets causing the real race problem …. Not this Southron! I don't need or want instructions on what I honour by some liberal South hater!
The Confederate Battle Flag With The "St Andrews Cross" was not the only Confederate Battle Flag, but She was the most known and used late in that great war. She is the most, hated, debated, misrepresented and beloved of all Confederate symbols. She has been tarnished by groups as the, naacp "by way of slander", kkk, aryan nation, skinheads, neo nazi, white supremacy clowns…Just to name a few. She was not a national flag, nor was She a politician's flag, and most defiantly not a flag of hate!…"She was a soldier's flag" a banner of courage, honour and a call to duty. She was a rallying point for battling warriors. Many died to keep Her safe and out of enemy hands, this Flag was stained with the blood of our Southron patriots. Last, and most important…SHE WAS AN AMERICAN FLAG!!
As Southron, we owe it to ourselves and noble ancestry to protect Her and hold her in reverence. We must stand up to "Those People" that slander Her, for that slander is slander toward us and our past. We must never let our past be removed from our future… and you sir slander your Southron people!!!

If any of you would bother to look further into these rallies, and such, you would see that the Confederate Battle flag ( which is the Southern cross, and not the stars and Bars… learn about the history you disrespect) is not alone in its misuse by such groups. Many, if not all of these hate groups also proudly wave the stars ans stripes at their various meetins, rallies etc. by saying that the flag of my forefathers should be buried due to its use by these groups, are you also suggesting a similar fate for "old Glory"? If so, prepare for the backlash that would come from such a suggestion, and if not, then you are a hypocrite.
and by the way, Segregation was not isolated in the South, it was an institution that flourished over many parts of the U.S.
I am the heir of Confederate veterans,and a true Son of the South, as many of you profess to be. The only difference is, I am not sheep. I do not spit in the face of my forefathers, simply because the media, or federal education tells me that I should. The Confederate States was not an act of treason, if it were, then at least SOMEONE would have been convicted of such, and yet none ever were. the rants on this message board from Yankees and scalawags alike sickens me. If you despise the south so much, then by all means leave it, and never look back.

"If my Great Great Grandfather and his fellow soldiers from the 10th Texas Cavalry were here today, the idiots waving the Battle Flag in Jena would be dispatched with extreme prejudice, and you Sir along with them. Isn't it fun putting matters of history into context?"

Just like the flag of the United States, the Confederate battle flag is just a piece of cloth. But, like the American flag, it's how it's being used (and what it stands for in people's minds) that matters.
And, although I grew up in the North, my family and I traveled extensively back and forth between New Hampshire and Florida during my youth. As a child, I, too, remember seeing (and using) the separate drinking fountains and toilets for "whites" and "colored". Likewise, I still have a picture indelibly affixed in my mind of the "Motel Colored" signs we used to pass. I also recall asking my parents a simple question about it all…."Why"?
Fortunately, the blatantly far-right, fundamentalist Presidential campaigns of Mr. Huckabee and Mr. Fred Thompson are both now on "life support" and will soon "tank". And, with each new generation, as a nation, we are starting…starting…to move beyond such bigotry, hatred and white supremacy.
There is no more proof of that fact than the Presidential candidacies of BOTH Mr. Obama and Ms. Clinton. The fact that they are even serious contenders is evidence that the vast majority of us are starting to leave whatever prejudices we may still have at the door when it comes time to cast our votes.
On the other hand, I'm concerned that all the "illegal immigration" talk now being whipped up by the likes of Messrs. Huckabee, Fred Thompson (and others) are simply an attempt to change the intended target of people's bigotry and racism from people of color to people who just happen to speak Spanish. Likewise, is not Mr. Bush's talk about the "war on terror" just another example of pandering to people's Islamophobia?
Thankfully, such racism and bigotry, too, seem to now be falling on ever-more-deaf (spelled: "educated and enlightened") ears.
But, sadly, we ain't there yet….
As then symbolism of what the Stars and Bars used to stand for has been usurped by those who do not understand the history of the South the symbolism of what the Stars and Stripes used to stand for by those supposedly native born for purposes of which no American can (or should) be proud of. In both cases the symbolism has been stained, denegrated, usurped, and degraded such that those who understand are shamed of what it has been now made to represent. When I traveled the world (in a past life) I could always spot the American (tourist or military) with their loud attire or loud mouth but generally speaking they (we) were respected and treated in accordance with our behavior, generally. I was spat upon once for wearing the uniform by a pretty young lady in San Francisco International airport in March of 1973. Once was enough. I do not travel outside the US anymore. The republicans rail against those who they think advocate isolationism in world affairs but they have themselves created a situation where we are being isolated by the rest of the world. I sometimes, when I dwell upon it too long, shake with the anger of what they have done to us. I shake with shame for what we have allowed them to do to us and what they do to the rest of the world in our name. And them I go away and don't think about it for awhile.
p.s. As Sinclair Lewis said, (and I hope I quote correctly), "when facism comes it will be draped in a flag and carrying a cross…" Time to look around and open our eyes, I think.
But FWIW, that's just this old curmudgeon's opinion. Have a nice day, y'all.
"I sometimes, when I dwell upon it too long, shake with the anger of what they have done to us. I shake with shame for what we have allowed them to do to us and what they do to the rest of the world in our name."
Not to mention the fact that its costing us at least $750 BILLION DOLLAS a year for the military budget and for the two wars currently underway. Most of this is borrowed money that must be repaid with interest.
The military, even in "peacetime", which is not often, is bloated beyond all belief. Military contractors from largest to smallest rip us off bigtime. Whenever I hear there is no more money for "entitlements" like Social Security and Medicare and possibly a single-payer national health care system I become enraged. $750 billion for war, but no money for social security or health care. BOLLOCKS!! as they say in England. BOLLOCKS.

This division of hatred is even found in the west. I spent my summers in several Idaho lake regions and have heard from my friends and relatives that these regions are now filled with skin heads. Even Montana and Utah are filled with bands of unAmerican racists.
I wonder if the academics in our public schools have planted the seeds of racism. I don't know as my kids along with me attended private schools which were bi-racial and loaded with Jewish kids. I know my kids and they learned all about equality in America and when they left the dorms at Berkeley rented apartments in Oakland where they were often the only white faces.
We have the Social Conservatives doing their damnest to divide Americans into groups of hatred. They turned me off of the Republican Party.
Now it seems that the Democrats are guilty of the same division. The news analyists tell us how the whites voted and how the blacks voted and how certain candidates should cater to one or the other. I'm accustomed to the GOP doing this; but the Democrats?
Another view about flag.
I take slightly different view of what the Confederate flag represents. It was not part of the South before the Civil War, therefore it didn't represent slavery or racism. It wasn't part of the South after the Civil War, therefore it didn't represent Jim Crow laws, segregation or hate and prejudice.
The Confederate flag only represented that time in history when the South was waging treason and subversion against the United States. It is best to remember the Confederate flag as a symbol of treason. Even though it has now been adopted to represent white supremacy, it still is all about treason.
States have the right to withdraw from The Union. Individual states "joined" the US and have the right to withdraw. From MANY states (individual countries) became one country through agreement. States joined the Union under (contractual) agreement. If the party (Union) joined too, no longer lives up to, or exceeds the agreement, the contract,, as all contracts may, may then be made void. States joined the Union by treaty (contract). If you join a country club by signing a contract and the country club does not abide by the terms, you may withdraw from the club. Same principle.
Do states have a right of secession? In his recently published book, "The Real Lincoln," Thomas DiLorenzo marshals abundant unambiguous evidence that virtually every political leader of the time and earlier believed that states had a right of secession.
Let's look at a few quotations. Thomas Jefferson in his First Inaugural Address said, "If there be any among us who would wish to dissolve this Union, or to change its republican form, let them stand undisturbed as monuments of the safety with which error of opinion may be tolerated where reason is left to combat it." Fifteen years later, after the New England Federalists attempted to secede, Jefferson said, "If any state in the Union will declare that it prefers separation … to a continuance in the union …. I have no hesitation in saying, 'Let us separate.'"
At Virginia's ratification convention, the delegates said, "The powers granted under the Constitution being derived from the People of the United States may be resumed by them whensoever the same shall be perverted to their injury or oppression." In Federalist Paper 39, James Madison, the father of the Constitution, cleared up what "the people" meant, saying the proposed Constitution would be subject to ratification by the people, "not as individuals composing one entire nation, but as composing the distinct and independent States to which they respectively belong." In a word, states were sovereign; the federal government was a creation, an agent, a servant of the states.
Evidently the idea of self determination is a dying principle.
Kent, I'm as frustrated over these issues as you are.
But you also have to remember that feeding all this (mostly borrowed) tax money to the "military industrial complex" in the USA keeps hundreds of thousands of jobs from going overseas (they can't export them for security reasons).
It also keeps those hundreds of thousands of workers EMPLOYED and off the welfare rolls…which is where they'd most likely be if it weren't working in the military (or for the defense contractors that support it).
That's because such skills are usually not-transferable to the private sector. That is, when was the last time some company built an air launched cruise missile for eventual sale at Macy's?
It is also critically important to remember when we are talking about ending Mr. Bush's totally illegal, so-called "preemptive" war strategy that the average Congresspersons's idea of "government waste" is a dollar spent in someone else's district.
Sadly, in FAR too many ways, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have become little more than multi-billion dollar "jobs programs" to help keep US workers employed and the unemployment rate down.
Unfortunately, STOPPING those wars anytime soon is going to toss a whole lot MORE people out of work right here in the USA because the idea of FEEDING that portion of our economy with tax dollars has now become so throughly and hopelessly entrenched.
Yea, lets keep murdering folks so the unemployment rate stays down.
just because a symbol has been co-opted by some people to be used as a symbol of racism, and some take offense doesn't mean that you can discount the fact that it is a differant symbol for others who take pride in it. the cross is a symbol the clan uses as often, should we remove all crosses too?

Unfortunately, The Battle Flag of the Confederacy has, as many symbols have been, been labeled. Especially by the many who wish to equate with something a bad image. Some,, maybe many have forgotten or never have known, what the Civil War was actually originally about. States rights, individual whites freedom and money issues (taxes). That was the reason many states seceded from the country of The United States. That was the whole reason for the beginning of the war. States had gotten fed up with the FEDS, and wanted to retain their liberty and run their own states as was their right,, and not to be dominated by a federal government, telling them and over seeing what they do, as they do now. As is with most things, The Civil War was mostly about money and who runs whose life. States rights were and are in a way equated to individual liberty. The each man is a King principle.
The Federal government wanted each state to be under its thumb as a duplicate of itself and once achieved the individual comes under the thumb of the state, which is under the thumb of the Fed.
The states did not say, The North wants us to free the slaves so we are going to secede. No, the whole issue of abolishing slavery was inserted into the issue to confuse the populace and make the "north" seem righteous.
Again the Fed did not say we are freeing the slaves and then a civil war broke out.
Don't get me wrong, slavery was a bad thing which had and would have ended eventually as it did in England and other European countries. But was a war which killed over 600,000 people really about that from the beginning?
Was the Confederate Battle Flag about Racism?
No, The battle flag was really about an idea or a symbol, of a spirit of battling, for states rights and individual freedom, which unfortunately at the time did not include the blacks in this country.
What it means now is an issue which changes from which perspective you look at it and what it means to each individual person. An ignorant racist may look at it and say white power, but an informed and educated man may look at it and think something quite different.
One of the Carolinas was taxed more than all of the norhtern states combined.
The facts, my good sir, do not support your assertions nor your conclusions. The war began when South Carolinians fired on Fort Sumter. South Carolinians stated their view of the "problem" in their Declaration of the Immediate Causes Which Induce and Justify the Secession. (copies many places but here is one link: http://www.yale.edu/lawweb/avalon/csa/scarsec.htm
That document goes into great detail to enumerate the threat to the institution of slavery that South Carolinians collectively see in the acts of other states. They site in particulare the third clause of Article IV, Section 2. concerning fugitive servicemen and laborers. They harangue about the fact that many northern states have chosen to abolish slavery and that the Mason Dixon line has been established as a general line of demarcation between those that do and those that do not allow slavery within their borders.
This exercise of states rights is imbued with great power to threaten the rights of southern states to continue to allow slavery. Yet every effort in the national legislature and in the state legislatures up to that point to make abolition a national objective had been defeated; abolishing slavery in Massachusetts did NOT include an insistence that slaves in Alabama likewise be freed.
Even Mr. Lincoln in his campaign for the presidency was explicit that no state that then permitted slavery should be forced to end that practice by the national government. (If you are in want of sources on this point, see Doris Kearns Goodwin's marvelous book, "Team of Rivals".)
South Carolina wanted states rights to mean it could keep its slaves but apparently wanted to bar northern states from freeing theirs through national intervention in order to protect their own perception of the future of slavery. A most disingenuous ploy and a fairly clear example that "states rights" was a motto that really meant "what we want, not what they want".
For this assertion, many on both sides died a needless death. There was no honor here, other than the bravery of those who died for their flag.
The CSA battle flag then became a rallying symbol for generations who sought to impose de facto slavery where the actual practice was banned by the 13th amendment. For this history, it is seen by many as a threat to the freedom and safety of those whose ancestors were lynched, raped, burned out, and otherwise forced to endure untold horrors solely because their ancestors were forced to sail to America to serve the colonies. (None of my ancestors, fortunately.)
I know a few who honor the flag out of love for the "real" south, the south of Robert E. Lee, a great gentleman and a great American despite his participation in the rebel army. The vast majority, however, have adopted the flag to give historical credence to prejudice and hatred. Hang it in your den or living room if you must but let's put it out of public view, along with the swastikas and other symbols of hatred.
Thank you Yarply for more ammunition in our fight to re-float our Liberty Ship!
Yarply is right! Doug is wrong!
The South was right that the individual states had every right to secede from the Union. Lincoln was an evil, racist, opportunistic politician.
I somewhat agree with Doug, however, in choosing not to display the Stars and Bars, on the pragmatic reason that it will automatically be misinterpreted as a symbol of support for racism. This does not, however, mean that secession is dead as a political principle. In purely pragmatic terms, it is best to use a different symbol to demonstrate support for the very honorable and non-racist concept of secession. Maybe the original "Don't Tread on Me" flag is the best symbol.
Mike Huckabee is, of course, an opportunistic politician. I wouldn't believe a word he says.
I stand by the idea, however, that the South (or any individual state) has the right to secede from the union. To argue against this is to argue that the states had no right to secede from Britain. Secession is a very important option that must be left to the states as a bulwark against central government tyranny.
Lets hear it for the Gadsden flag,I have one on my door,a fitting statement for these times!www.gadsden.info/flag.html
And do you think it's any accident that those same southern states are the ones filled to the brim with born-again fundamentalist Christians (like Baptists, for example)who think George Bush is a great guy and have absolutely no problem whatsoever with invading Middle Eastern countries which did us no harm whatsoever, all in the name of Israel, the Old Testament and the (purely fabricated) "rapture?" Or, to put it more bluntly, the people that think Blacks and Arabs are lowlife and should be slaves to Whites and Jews?
I guess its our burden to bear such stuff.
That's a crafty little edit !!!
Thanks for being yourself again.
There are several good comments that have come from this rant. Certainly all of us reject racism, and to the extent that some see the Confederate flag as its symbol, we sympathize.
To other people that flag is not so much a symbol of racism but more is a symbol of rebellion against an intolerable, overbearing federal government. We can sympathize with that as well.
It's all about which symbols represent what for who.
Yin and Yang.
One who chooses to paint is apt to be sloppy when using an overly large brush,NO?

Common Questions: For RecipientsAre Federal payment recipients who currently receive payment by check required to open an ETASM? No. However, Federal benefit payments must be paid electronically and beneficiaries should select Direct Deposit to a traditional checking or savings account, the Direct Express card, or open an ETA to receive their payments. Can an individual who already has an account at a financial institution sign up for an ETA? Yes. The ETA is available to all individuals who receive Federal benefit, wage, salary, or retirement payments, regardless of whether they have an existing account at a financial institution. What types of consumer protections are available to ETA holders? ETAs will be subject to the same consumer protections available to other account holders at the same financial institution. For example, an ETA is Federally insured and subject to the Truth in Savings Act disclosure requirements in Regulation DD and the electronic access protections found in Regulation E. How quickly after a financial institution is designated as an ETA provider can that institution advertise the ETA to the public? The Financial Agency Agreement must be signed by the financial institution and Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, as Fiscal Agent for Treasury, the financial institution may begin to offer the ETA and advertise its availability to the public after the effective date indicated in the Financial Agency Agreement. How can an account holder withdraw all of his or her funds from an ETA if the balance is less than the smallest denomination available at an ATM? Account holders may use their debit card at a POS terminal if the financial institution is a member of an on-line POS network. POS terminals are commonly found in many retail outlets such as grocery stores, service stations, and post offices, and are available for purchases in any amount. In addition, some financial institutions may offer over-the-counter cash withdrawals. These cash withdrawals may be made in any denomination. Is it possible for an ETA holder to overdraw his or her account? If so, how much is a financial institution permitted to charge the account holder for an overdraft? Yes. It may be possible for an account to be overdrawn under very limited circumstances. The maximum amount that may be charged for an overdraft in an ETA is $10. This fee covers all overdrafts that may occur within a 24 hour period. May a nursing home or other entity open an ETA in a capacity as a representative payee for one or more recipients? No. An ETA must be owned by an individual. Therefore, a representative payee may open an ETA only if the representative payee is an individual. Although corporations and other entities, including nursing homes, sometimes act as representative payees, they may not establish ETAs. When using an ATM for a cash withdrawal, should the ETA customer choose withdrawal from savings, withdrawal from checking, or some other designation on the ATM screen? The ETA provider should determine which option ETA customers should choose. The financial institution must, at the time an ETA is opened, disclose to the recipient which option the customer should choose when withdrawing cash from an ATM. How can an ETA holder obtain account balance information? Financial institutions may provide ETA holders with account balance information through a variety of methods: 1) through balance inquiry transactions at proprietary ATMs, 2) over-the-counter at the ETA provider's main office or branch locations, 3) through a combination of ATMs and over-the-counter, 4) over the telephone, and, 5) if the recipient agrees, through other electronic means. Any of these methods may be used at the option of the financial institution as long as a minimum of four balance inquiries is provided within the monthly fee. Also, ETA holders must receive a monthly statement. Where can recipients find more information regarding their Federal electronic payments? Recipients can contact the appropriate Federal agency to receive more information regarding electronic payments. Agency customer service telephone numbers:
Or call:
Where can Federal recipients find a listing of financial institutions offering the ETA? Treasury made publicly available a list of participating financial institutions on September 15, 1999. This information can be found at http://www.eta-find.gov or by calling 1 (888) 382-3311, or an ETA-recipient TDD, (877) FBN-KTDD (877) 326-5833). Where do Federal check recipients reside? The majority of Federal check recipients are concentrated in metropolitan areas across the country. The top five cities in which check recipients reside are Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Chicago, and Miami. In addition, over half of all Federal benefit, wage, salary, and retirement payments are made in 10 states: California, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Texas, Illinois, North Carolina, New Jersey, and Florida. |

A.J. Liebling quipped, rightly, that "freedom of the press belongs to those who own one." Well, we don't own our internet server, and we certainly don't own any of the infrastructure that makes the web work, but Hand Print Press represents an effort by two families to live freely, cooperatively, and well. The "press," such as it is, started in rural Oregon. It sprouted out of the clutter on a small desk in a small cabin, next to a little cob cottage with an outdoor oven and related work space – including studio, garden, creek, forest, and the homes of neighbors, human and wild. The initial "staff" was mostly me (Kiko), backed up by my wife and boys, as well as my mother, Ann Sayre Wiseman, who let me republish some of her most popular books. Today (12/19/2010) our friend Max Edleson is here to help expand this from a one- to two-cottage industry. It's an exciting time, not only because it means working with friends, but because we're hoping the press can help more people to find more ways to free themselves from slavery to things like 30 year mortgages, hateful jobs, artificial food, and toxic competition for illusionary goals.
All of us have been seeking ways to combine handcraft, art, food, agriculture, and community. All along the way, we have learned from and taught others, and the joy of learning has inspired us to share: to tell stories, to take photographs, to write, to draw, to lead workshops, to organize events, to seek out teachers, to learn from students, and to dream of a world where work and art and community all combine in joy and gratitude and grace.
We'd like Hand Print Press to serve as a way to work for those goals – a place to share ideas, inspiration, and information so future generations can gain real knowledge, create beauty, and know harmony. Each of us represented here takes individual responsibility for the work we publish. We work together, as people, rather than working under the legal fiction of a "corporate body," most of which use public resources and public speech to disguise private hungers for profit and power.
In Greek, the word for private is "idiotikos." When we can't successfully participate in the healthy life of the whole community, we're reduced to idiocy. On the other hand, "to publish" means "to make public." When you make your work public, you become accountable for what you say. In the old days, when it cost lots of money to print and distribute books, publishers had to take the responsibility for what their authors said. That's why, in the industrialized world, freedom of the press has been so important to the health of public life and citizenship. Now, however, with the tools for public speech so broadly available, individuals have to take responsibility for what they put into the common pool.
We do charge for books and services, but we don't see the work as either "for profit" or "private." We aim at cultivating common soil so that all may feed and flourish. In addition to books, we bake bread, tend the garden, watch the boys, make and build things, teach, and trade with friends and neighbors. We live well, below "the poverty line," but reap rich rewards in time, friends, and freedom.
Within the book trade, which is as global as any, we operate a home-based economy, and hope for a craft economy – that is, a way of life by which we count what we do not in dollars but in beauty – in the goodness of work, food, fellowship, and grace. Ideally, we would do it without need of global trade, global finance, or global war, but in the meantime, we do our best to live by principles of equity and simplicity.
The first book from the press was Build Your Own Earth Oven, a sculptor's treatment of traditional earthen building, art, and bread. I was making ovens because I didn't have a place to build a house – and because the ovens were sculpture that provided wonderful bread. The book began as bare bones notes for workshops I taught for people who saw pictures of sculpted ovens and wanted their own.
As I learned about working with earth, new ideas and projects took root in the mud, most of them educational or community-oriented, They became two more little books: Dig Your Hands in the Dirt, and Make a Simple Sundial.
All of this mud and art and making is founded on an idea I first learned direct from my mother, who traced it back to Aristotle, who said "what we learn to do, we learn by doing." My mother, Ann Wiseman, is an artist whose own mother sent her to a school where learning by doing was the core curriculum — and where her teacher was called "Miss Doing" (really!)
She has published 13 books, the best-selling of which is Making Things, A Handbook of Creative Discovery. About ten years ago, after nearly 30 years in print, Little, Brown dropped it from their catalog. I picked it up partly because I thought it should be in print for my own kids' generation, but also because it would turn my one-book operation into a real (if small) publishing concern. It also made sense because what I've been doing is really just more "making [mud] things."
With the re-publication of Making Things came a realization that both my mother and I received more than the current average (industrial) share of what, for lack of a better term, I'll call "real knowledge" – real because it requires not just thought or belief, but a real integration and commitment of body, spirit, intellect, and heart. That real experience of life defines who we are and our place in the world. It is also too often dismissed by state-sanctioned compulstory education as less important than the day's fashionable fact or byte of "infotainment." So we forget, hide, ignore, or deny what we know best – our self, and our experience. Such experience is the source of love; it is what ties us to parents, place, and children – and it is how we create culture.

Price: $130 Contact: breville.com.au
Breville has released a sealing device that vacuum-packs food items, by using specially designed bags.
Vacuum-packing stores food in an air-tight environment, and by combining vacuum packaging with refrigeration you can reduce the growth of some bacteria. Breville's the Fresh Keeper works in conjunction with the Breville Sous Vide whereby the food needs to be vacuum packed before you can place it in the Sous Vide.
The Fresh Keeper is easy to use, simply position the bag correctly, making sure there is no food or residue near the opening of the bag and then press down on the unit. After about 20 seconds most of the air is removed and then a further five to 10 seconds will seal the bag. While it works well to remove air and seal food, Fiona found it to be hit-and-miss at times. Make sure the bag is correctly positioned and pressing down on both sides should give a better seal.
To test how well it is at keeping food fresh, we vacuum-sealed a piece of pork and a piece of chicken for six days after which both still appeared to be fresh, were not dried out or slimy and still had a fresh smell.
While this product does keep food fresh for longer it comes at a price. While it comes with a roll of 20cm bags, the cost of the vacuum bags is an ongoing expense, like we found when we tested the Sunbeam FoodSaver. You can source extra bags online - we found it to cost $18.95 for 25 bags or $28.95 for a roll of 20cm x 7cm bags.
You can pay only $3.09 for a pack of 50 small Glad sandwich bags.
While the Fresh Keeper BVP700 does keep food fresh longer, there is an ongoing cost associated with purchasing the vacuum pouches. This type of product would be suitable if you buy in bulk and need to keep foods stored for longer periods.
For more information about kitchen appliances, see Kitchen.
8 Oct 2012 | Sous Vide is a cooking technique that requires foods to be vacuum packed and heated at controlled temperatures over a period of time.
2 Oct 2012 | Ceramic cooktops have easy-to-clean surfaces and a mid-range price tag. Which ones perform best?
1 Oct 2013 | While all these things can be done with a chopping board and knife or a grater, hand whisk and so on, food processors are much quicker.

The Expert View: Rolls Royce, GlaxoSmithKline, RSA Insurance
A round-up of analysts' commentary on shares, also including Synergy Health and Aggreko.
Leave a comment!
Aggreko bags 'nimble' contracts to remain a buy
Power provider Aggreko (AGGK.L) remains a 'buy' after a full year update that revealed a better end to the year, with more contracts signed and a reduction in bad debt.
Analyst Paul Jones of Panmure Gordon placed a target price of £17.36 on the shares after expectations that profits before tax will hit £335 million.
Jones said the positive outlook for the company was boosted by a 'number of smaller contracts signed and extended, and a reduction in bad debt provisions after payments received'.
'Smaller and slightly different contracts such as Panama show Aggreko continues to break new markets with nimble deals, though the 'splash' contract many want to see may be some way off,' said Jones. 'Nevertheless, Aggreko remains well placed and we remain buyers.'
Shares closed up 8.5%, or 128p, at £16.44.

Espirito drives up Rolls Royce rating to 'neutral'
Changes in the dollar and sterling exchange rate has seen Rolls Royce (RR.L) underperform its peers but a better performance in other operations has led Espirito Santo Investment Bank to upgrade the shares to 'neutral'.
Analysts led by Edward Stacey placed a target price of £11.00 on the shares, up from 950p, as 'some of our operational worries have actually not materialised'.
The shares have increased 1.6% in the past six months, underperforming global peers Safran and United Tech as a rise in the GBP/USD exchange rate hit Rolls' earnings.
'The relative underperformance of Rolls more than reflects this [change in exchange rates],' said Stacey.
'The new fair value of £11.00 is 9% downside to the current share price, which corresponds to a Neutral in our rating system.'
Shares closed up 33p, or 2.7%, at £12.36.

Glaxo ups Indian stake as it pushes into emerging markets
Pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline (GSK.L) signified its commitment to emerging markets by increasing its stake in its Indian subsidiary.
Analysts at Shore Capital retained their 'buy' rating on the company and set a target price of £15.82.
GSK will increase its stake in its Indian subsidiary from 50.7% to 75%, which analyst Brian White said signified 'its commitment to this aspect of its emerging markets business and the potential of the fast growing Indian pharmaceuticals market'.
The £692 million cost of the increased stake will be funded by existing cash resources and the transaction will be 'earnings neutral' in the first year (2014).
Shares closed up 18.5p, or 1.1%, at £15.89.

Synergy Health contract wins make it 'best structural growth play'
Six contract wins for healthcare resources provider Synergy Health (SYR.L) means 'more upside' from the US markets, according to Investec. Analyst Nicholas Keher said the contract wins, worth £230 million, will 'be taken well by investors and should lead to the share price gaining momentum as the market rewards this structural growth story'.
Keher placed a target price of £11.65 on the shares. Although the benefits from the contracts are unlikely to be seen until 2015, he thinks they will lead to more business in the US.
'Whilst significant in size, we see these contract wins as only the first of many Synergy has the opportunity to win in the relatively undeveloped US market, which we have previously estimated at potentially £2 billion,' said Keher.
'We think Synergy is one of the best structural growth plays in our sector and expect the share price to start to gain momentum as investors come to appreciate the inherent value of the US market which Synergy is now beginning to unlock.'
Shares closed up 77p, or 7.45%, at £11.10.

RSA woes lead to shares downgrade
Insurer RSA (RSA.L) has been downgraded to a sell following a £155 million loss in Ireland and the UK, the resignation of its chief executive and fears for 2013 profits which led the shares to dive.
Analyst Ben Cohen at Canaccord Genuity downgraded RSA and placed a target price of 85p on the shares as he believes the company will have to take drastic measures to build up its capital.
'We think RSA needs to improve its solvency positions by up to £1 billion, to take its capital strength back to the levels in 2008/09, when solvency was simply not an issue,' he said. 'We see this being achieved by a combination of a lower dividend (a cut by a third), new reinsurance covers (to reduce volatility of earnings…and capital consumption of the back-book) and portfolio adjustment/disposals…A rights issue is also a possibility, albeit only likely a necessity if other reserving issues arise in coming months.'
Cohen also said he believes shareholder pressure will force RSA to reveal details of its plans to increase solvency earlier than February as it announced.
Shares took further losses, falling 2.4p, or 2.5%, to 90p.

Duane Reade has promoted Joe Magnacca, formerly executive vice president and chief merchandising officer, to president.
Inside This Issue - News
NEW YORK – Duane Reade has promoted Joe Magnacca, formerly executive vice president and chief merchandising officer, to president.
Magnacca, a retail industry veteran with more than 20 years of experience, joined Duane Reade in October 2008 as senior vice president and chief merchandising officer. He was later promoted to executive vice president, but he retained his merchandising duties.
Before joining Duane Reade, Magnacca worked for Shoppers Drug Mart, where he had led the Canadian drug store chain's marketing and merchandising initiatives since 2002, and served most recently as executive vice president of merchandising and category management.
At Duane Reade, Magnacca is credited with playing a key role in the chain's transformation through such initiatives as bolstering its pharmacy and health care services and launching a premium store brand called DR Delish.
Duane Reade has also updated its store format, as could be seen most recently at a new flagship store that the chain opened last month in Manhattan.
The 13,944-square-foot store, located at 1 Union Square, is the Duane Reade's largest and reflects its new emphasis on health, fresh food and higher-end beauty products.
"It's an unbelievable space that is at the crossroads of so much nonstop activity," says Magnacca. "We've added a number of unique things and expanded some of our more popular offerings, such as our Look Boutique, to make this space exciting — and essential — to our customers."
The store's beauty offerings include the Ramy Brow Bar, which offers an array of tweezing, shaping and sculpting options. The entire store has wider aisles and a more open look.
The location, which has a 24-hour pharmacy, is the seventh Duane Reade store to include a Doctor On Premises walk-in medical center. Managed by Consumer Health Services Inc. (CHS), the Duane Reade Doctor On Premises departments are staffed by licensed physicians who can take care of most common illnesses, minor injuries and lacerations, and can also perform routine screenings, physical exams, vaccinations and referrals to specialists.
"Our patients and customers have reacted very positively to the high-quality service and health care being provided through the health stores," says Duane Reade senior vice president of pharmacy operations Frank Scorpiniti. "In collaboration with CHS, we're focusing on making New Yorkers' lives a little easier."
Magnacca pointed out that the Union Square store has been tailored to meet the needs of its neighborhood's young and active population. For example, the new outlet has an extensive assortment of on-the-go food options, including healthy snacks, sushi, fresh baked goods, salads and sandwiches.
"This is all about giving the local shopper what she needs and wants," Magnacca notes. "Our pharmacy and general merchandise items will always be an important element, but it's important that we customize our stores to best reflect the particular needs of this vibrant neighborhood."
In recognition of the pivotal role Magnacca has played in the transformation of Duane Reade, Chain Drug Review selected him earlier this year for its 2009 Vern Brunner Merchant of the Year Award.

Math 103 Online Colorado Community College Online
0 Has any one taken this class over the summer online? I am terrible at math and freaking out.
Must Read Topics
0May 11, '13 by Boxer MamaWhile it was not math 103, I did just finish taking math 121 (college algebra) and math 135 (statistics) online through CCConline. I will not lie - I worked my tail off. We used the Pearson math lab website, which was a good system with examples and lots of practice problems. Before this semester I would have said the same thing about not being strong in math, but I did manage an A in both classes. With the summer semester being shorter, I would just be ready to spend the time in the material to learn it and ask questions when you need to.

It's fair to say that iPad deployments in education are becoming increasingly common. Roll-outs have ranged from hundreds to thousands, although the L.A. Unified School District upped the game last month when it splashed out $30 million on 35,000 Apple tablets.
For all this, what has remained constant over time is how these iPads have been used. Some schools have used the iPad for teachers to concoct lesson plans; others have given iPads to students to replace physical textbooks or to help with revision.
There have even been deployments where schools have introduced iPads to teach kids to rap or to get rid of all paper.
But the iPad could yet have an even bigger role in advancing education, judging by a new report from German website Spiegel.
The source reports that 11 so-called "Steve Jobs schools" are to open in August, with each to serve approximately 1,000 students aged from 4 to 12.
These schools will vary by location and will see children come to the school without notebooks, books or even backpacks. Instead, each student will just carry an Apple iPad.
If that isn't innovative enough then how about this for ripping up traditional learning – these schools won't have blackboards, pens or even classrooms, while teachers won't be required to lecture from the front of the room.
There will also be no fixed school days or school vacations, and children will even be allowed to play on their iPad if the subject doesn't interest them.
One prospective 'Steve Jobs school', called Schorsmolenstraat in Breda, says that it will be open from 7.30 a.m. to 6.30 p.m. on each workday and children will be allowed to come and go as they please, so long as they are present during the mandatory hours of 10:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Teachers will rarely direct classes in groups and will instead instruct students to call up some education apps on their iPads.
Spiegel writer Marco Evers adds that education apps loaded on the iPad the will offer a "game-like experience" in which students are corrected on errors in a similar way computer players are when playing a game, and says that students won't be required to sift through all book chapters as they've done in the past.
This will see the teacher's role transform into some kind of 'digital coach', on-hand for assistance but also liaising with students and parents to decide learning material each six weeks.
One-to-one parent-teacher meetings will also be shelved, although parents will be relieved to learn that their children will lead a non-digital life when away from the iPad. The eleven schools will see require students to do things like drawing and physical activity.

Life on the road! |
In saying that though, I coached a very successful and fun running camp in July for 4 days. I had given myself permission to still run and be on trail for this and trust me, I enjoyed every single step I took out there, never taking one ounce of trail for granted. Being on the trails, especially up in the alpine, is incredibly special to me. We had a great group of runners to explore and experience our coastal BC beauty with. The achilles wasn't too happy with me but I was pleasantly surprised regarding my fitness seeing as I hadn't run for months. My motto has been well I shouldn't run so I might as well bike and so, bike it has been.
The Lions. Day #2 Run Camp |
Just for fun, I participated in the 160km Grand Fondo in Penticton mid July. This would have been my Hardrock weekend (booooo) so at least challenging myself in some capacity filled the void. Kiel's Aunty Sheena and I ventured for a great weekend of training, racing and camping to the hot Okanagan. I hadn't actually swam in Skaha Lake since my Ultraman 10km swim a few years ago. Gotta say, much nicer to float around with Kiel in it as opposed to swimming it from one end to the other. I had a great day on the fondo course, hanging with the chase pack and riding at a nice fast pace. 75km of headwinds wasn't so much fun though and it was a hot day. I hadn't entered with any expectations and had just planned to ride with friend and biking bad ass Barb Sweeney. However, thinking she was in front of me, I chased her all day only to discover that she had dropped with an injury. I ended the race with a crazy sprint that just about sent me into cardiac arrest at the finish shoot. Having not spent much time in the saddle, I was super stoked on 3rd female across the line (but finished 5th by milliseconds due to chip time.) Is road racing for me? Not sure.
However, building upon my 4.5hr fond time, my good friend Robyn accompanied me down to Oregon this past weekend so that I could ride some sweet single track at the Cascade Cream Puff 100mile mountain bike race. I've had this event on the radar for many years, mainly because I wanted to see what Oakridge riding was all about. So, why not go when a race was happening right? The course was incredibly hard, lots of climbing (18,000+ft) and super hot but had some of the most amazing single track to balance it out. I was on my hard tail and clearly had not put enough time on it. Great for climbing as it was super light but my hands were killing on the descents due to lack of absorption. Anyways, I had no expectations out there. Apparently I left my climbing legs back at the campsite on race morning as usually I get stronger as the race goes on but maybe due to the heat (?? hmm still not sure) I was off my game on lap #2. I led the race for females until about 60miles and then was passed by last years winner. She was climbing well and put time in on me. I made up for it on all single track sections but just couldn't close the gap. In the end, after 100miles of riding, I finished in 2nd, 6mins behind the winner. I've dedicated my 2nd place to all the ladies in Squamish who I ride bikes with. It's been awesome hitting roads and trails with several woman who are phenomenal riders and who always push me to be better.
No time to be nervous! Other things take precedent over race prep. |
My take away from the Cream Puff has been a few things. Firstly, I've done anything but train seriously for bike racing so overall, I'm happy with how I have been doing. Majority of rides are chariot pulls (1-2x a day) and that does actually develop some nice leg power. Secondly, I've been relieved to see that I still have my ability to dig deep and hang in there when things get rough or when I feel like crap. I don't ever want to loose my edge to suffer and through a few races this year I have proved to myself that it's still there post pregnancy. Thirdly, patience to heal is something that I'm still dealing with daily and that's ok. My last check in with physio showed good progress so I'm on the right track for the pro-lapse reversal. And lastly, I've been having just a great Summer adventuring with Kiel, riding when I can and just enjoying nature as opportunities come to me. I'm content. I'm surrounded by great people who are supporting me to get back out there and who are a big part of Kiel's life. It takes a community to raise a child and I have that for sure. Thankyou friends, you know who you are.

Chiropractor Amber Kirk for the much needed adjustments when I hobble in with whiplash from falling off my bike.

TMP boys win sub-state opener
By AUSTIN COLBERT
There is usually a point in every team's season where a close game will be decided by its bench players, and for the Thomas More Prep-Marian boys, that time wasn't on Monday against Norton Community High School.
But when that time comes, TMP coach Joe Hertel has proof those players will be ready and it came in the Monarchs' 58-37 win over the Bluejays in their Class 3A sub-state opener at Hays Middle School.
"I got a contribution from all 11 players tonight, and that really wasn't the plan going in," Hertel said. "I'm proud of the kids that haven't got much varsity time but had to come in and fill a role tonight that we needed them to. And not only be a body on the floor, but find a way to contribute on both ends."
TMP (12-9) had eight players score, six of which had at least six points. Senior Jordan Gottschalk led the way with 12 points, with junior Cameron Fouts adding 11.
The win advances third-seeded TMP into the sub-state semifinals, where it will play No. 2 seed Minneapolis (15-6) in Hoisington on Thursday. Minneapolis is coming off a 75-44 win over Hoisington on Monday.
Norton (8-13) fell into an early 13-2 hole against the Monarchs in the first quarter, and outside of its first-half run to cut the TMP lead to 17-15, never threatened the entire game.
"We had a few dead spots, offensively particularly," Hertel said. "We had some spots where we let our bodies get out of position, defensively, and piled up some fouls. But you know, we maintained and we held them off."
The game saw poor shooting from both teams (Norton 29 percent, TMP 38 percent) and a combined 50 free-throw attempts.
The free-throw line proved to be a key separator of the teams. TMP was an efficient 18 of 23 from the foul line, while Norton was just 12 of 27.
Made field goals were a rare occurrence for the Bluejays throughout much of the game. Norton made only three shots over the second and third quarters combined, one coming in a third quarter that had 18 free-throw attempts between the teams.
TMP led 31-18 at halftime and 42-27 after three quarters. The final 21-point margin was also the largest lead of the game for the Monarchs.
Junior Deon Lyle was a bright spot on the Norton offense, leading the team with 18 points on 7 of 12 shooting. Norton senior Drew Schrum also finished in double figures with 11.
TMP outrebounded Norton 40-21.
"I don't do a lot of water under the bridge critiquing once we get to this point. We managed to find a way to win and we get to play on Thursday. We are going to look forward," Hertel said. "I think tonight, though, should give all of my players a little bit of confidence and maybe even help them move to the next level."
In the other half of TMP's sub-state bracket, hosted by Hoisington, top-seeded Beloit defeated Ellsworth 76-46 and No. 4 seed Phillipsburg lost to No. 5 seed Lyons, 66-59. The winner of Thursday's Beloit-Lyons and TMP-Minneapolis games will meet on Saturday in Hoisington for a spot in the Class 3A state tournament. TMP plays Minneapolis at 6 p.m.
TMP 58, Norton 37
Deon Lyle 7-12 1-4 18, Drew Schrum 3-5 5-9 11, Furbush 1-6 4-8 6, Porter 0-9 1-4 1, Sondergaard 0-0 1-1 1, Cox 0-1 0-0 0, Lewis 0-3 0-0 0, Miller 0-1 0-0 0, Unterseher 0-1 0-0 0. Totals 11-38 12-27 37.
Jordan Gottschalk 5-12 2-2 12, Cameron Fouts 3-7 5-6 11, Mayorga 3-6 3-5 9, Schmidt 2-4 2-2 8, Hoffman 0-6 6-8 6, Megaffin 3-6 0-0 6, Vitztum 2-4 0-0 4, Schumacher 1-1 0-0 2, Flax 0-3 0-0 0, Schippers 0-1 0-0 0. Totals 19-50 18-23 58.

TD Bank Five Boro Bike Tour
The TD Bank Five Boro Bike Tour is an amazing event. Taking place the first Sunday in May each year, the adventure starts in Lower Manhattan. The ride heads north through the heart of Manhattan into Central Park and continues on to historic Harlem and the Bronx, returning south along the East River on the FDR Drive. From there it crosses into Queens and then Brooklyn, where cyclists take over the highway before making the thrilling climb up—and down—the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge to Staten Island. The route is 42 miles, mostly flat except for the bridges.
In 2011, HNF began participating in this event, both to raise awareness of Charcot-Marie-Tooth and to show the world that people with CMT can exercise and ride! Since our first ride, we have raised over $85,000 for CMT research.

Iran's inflation rate down 0.9%, hits 38.4%: Central Bank |
TEHRAN - The Central Bank of Iran has announced that the inflation rate for the 12-month period ended the tenth Iranian calendar month of Dey (ended on January 20) hit 38.4 percent, a 0.9 percent decline compared to the previous month. Meanwhile, the point-to-point inflation rate hit 28.8 percent. This is while the Statistical Center of Iran on January 28 put the 12-month and the point-to-point inflation rates for the mentioned period of time at 35 percent and 27.5 percent, respectively. In November 2013, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said his government plans to decrease the inflation rate to below 25 percent by the end of the next Iranian calendar year 1393 (March 20, 2015). The inflation rate is projected to be 35 percent at the end of the current Iranian calendar year (March 20, 2014). "First, the administration plans to curb the inflation rate and reform the banking system, and then change the method of (cash) subsidy payments," he added. In October 2013, Finance and Economic Affairs Minister Ali Tayyebnia said the government plans to reduce the inflation rate by 6 to 7 percent by the end of the current calendar year (March 20, 2014).

P.S Man, the BD uncensored version will be sick :D
December 14th, 2012 at 12:07 pm
^ 1) Thinks this flawed shit is so good and one of the best animes of this season
2) Thinks SAO is good
True great animes of this season are:

Medaka Box abnormal etc…
This shit only has an interesting plot now and then but generally it's average at best because of it's really stupid flaws
December 14th, 2012 at 12:08 pm

December 14th, 2012 at 2:05 pm
@Kaiokenred I guess you don't like it. Keep it to yourself and please don't criticize others.
December 14th, 2012 at 2:08 pm
I like it, but it's still flawed as fuck and objectively not one of the best anime of the season
December 14th, 2012 at 3:06 pm

Thought about* yep drunk.. XD~
December 15th, 2012 at 1:18 am
Good anime, but not good enough to be called one of the best this season. As for this episode, the fights were boring as hell.
December 15th, 2012 at 1:46 am
@Kaiokenred fucking shoujo anime lover, LMAO at medaka box being the best of this season LOL
December 15th, 2012 at 1:48 am
and this season was shit, the only very good is magi
December 15th, 2012 at 2:11 am
"Medaka Box abnormal "etc…"
This is why you fail at anime.. Please stop watching Shit!.
December 15th, 2012 at 2:43 am
Definetely one of the better shows this season, not the best but pretty good( from what i saw it's been faitful to the manga and the final ep won't wrap up the story, so I'm hoping for a second season).
Ps:the guy above who said this is flawed doesn't have a clue what is talking about…
December 15th, 2012 at 2:49 am
He's/She's is talking about…*
XD~ Yep!.

The asymmetric dimethylation of histone H3 arginine 2 (H3R2me2a) acts as a repressive mark that antagonizes trimethylation of H3 lysine 4. Here we report that H3R2 is also symmetrically dimethylated (H3R2me2s) by PRMT5 and PRMT7 and present in euchromatic regions. Profiling of H3-tail interactors by SILAC MS revealed that H3R2me2s excludes binding of RBBP7, a central component of co-repressor complexes Sin3a, NURD and PRC2. Conversely H3R2me2s enhances binding of WDR5, a common component of the coactivator complexes MLL, SET1A, SET1B, NLS1 and ATAC. The interaction of histone H3 with WDR5 distinguishes H3R2me2s from H3R2me2a, which impedes the recruitment of WDR5 to chromatin. The crystallographic structure of WDR5 and the H3R2me2s peptide elucidates the molecular determinants of this high affinity interaction. Our findings identify H3R2me2s as a previously unknown mark that keeps genes poised in euchromatin for transcriptional activation upon cell-cycle withdrawal and differentiation in human cells.
