Bethlehem, Pa., December 8, 2009—Payne Gallery at Moravian College is exhibiting forty original works selected from the Society of Illustrators 51st Annual Exhibition. The show runs until January 24, 2010. The works are a representative sample of the best in the six categories: Sequential, Editorial, Book, Advertising, Institutional and Un-commissioned. Of the artists in each show, some are familiar and some are the rising stars of tomorrow. A DVD featuring three of the sequential animations is included for exhibition.
The Society was founded in 1901 as a group of nine artists and one advising businessman with the credo, "The object of the Society shall be to promote generally the art of illustration and to hold exhibitions from time to time." Members have included such prominent illustrators as Howard Pyle, Maxfield Parish, N.C. Wyeth, Charles Dana Gibson, Frederic Remington, James Montgomery Flagg, and Howard Chandler Christy, with special guests like Mark Twain and Gloria Swanson.
In their early years, the Society made heavy contributions to the war effort during WWI and WWII, in order to boost morale and support through their illustrations, and they continue to document activities of the military around the world.
In 1981 the Museum of American Illustration was established, which today possesses 1,500 works of art by such legendary artists as Rockwell, Pyle, Wyeth, Kent, Peak, Fuchs and Holland. The Society makes regular contributions to community service, political issues and student scholarship, along with holding sketch classes, lecture series, social gatherings, and annual exhibitions in recognition of the greats in the field of illustration. They continue their mission of supporting the art of illustration and its constant evolvement.
Payne Gallery is located on the Priscilla Payne Hurd Campus of Moravian College, in historic Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. The Gallery is open noon - 4:00 p.m., Tuesday through Sunday. The gallery is closed Mondays, major holidays and during school breaks. Admission and parking are free, and the Gallery is wheelchair accessible. For more information, contact David Leidich, Assistant Director of Payne Gallery at 610-653-5555, email@example.com or visit http://home.moravian.edu/public/art/gallery/.
Moravian College is a private, coeducational, selective liberal arts college located in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Tracing its founding to 1742, it is recognized as America's sixth-oldest college. Visit the Web site at www.moravian.edu.

The food here is amazing, but the service is poor. And the workers are rude.
Posted by Bob B on 05/22/2014
The pastas are fresh and pretty good. The pizzas are at best mediocre and the noise level can get pretty high. Service is good and fairly quick. My advice is stick to the pastas and salads and skip the pizza

This is our favorite go to place for pizza. Our favorites are the margarita and grandma's. The fresh mozzarella and plum tomatoes are amazing. Besides the great pizza we can now order online and pick up on our way home. It would be great if they had an app for this.

In a nutshell.....Monty Q's is to pizza what the Olive Garden is to Italian Restaurants. Totally generic. There's a new place on Court Street and Remsen called Antonios that's much better.

I wish you could give negative stars. I ran in just before closing time, thinking I don't want to cook, this should be an easy solution. Poorest. Decision. Ever! First, homie at the pasta bar made it spectacularly clear that they were getting ready to close. Twice. Before asking me what I wanted to order - or more specifically asking in an exasperated tone "what pasta?" I asked what my options were he acted like I asked for a kidney. I stated my order guessing based on what I could see on the counter behind him where he had wrapped up all the options. Then he asked me again what pasta. You know if you're in a hurry to close you'd think you'd get the order right the first time. I told him again, when he decided to hand me a slip of paper where I was to check my selections. Couldn't have done that from jump huh? I told him my choices he responded by slamming a pencil on the counter. I chose again. At this point three kids wander in behind me and are discussing their options. He starts telling them to hurry up and in the process burns my meal. you know, if you're closing you might start by closing the door dontcha think? And the end result? A bland oily container of lukewarm Upasta with now undercooked chunks of garlic, not even a whisper of salt all for ten bucks.
Posted by imagirl on 03/02/2012
I come here a lot with my friends, and the food is great. The pizza is nice and dusty with leftover flour, and the garlic knots are to die for! My only complaint is that one time I was there with my very close friends and we accidentally spilled some tomato sauce and asked for some paper towels. An employee brought us some paper towels with a smirk and said, "here you go queens of England!" We were quite offended, but it was worth it for the food!

Bruce Gale – Straits Times
When Indonesia's National Statistics Bureau announced that the country's annual inflation last month grew to an unexpected high of 4.53 percent, some economists warned that the economy might be overheating.
The economy is "growing above its sustainable rate, largely as a result of an overly loose monetary policy," Credit Suisse economist Robert Prior-Wandesforde said in a research note. His comments echoed recent declarations by the International Monetary Fund, which has been arguing that Asian nations should prepare to "shift gears" and tighten monetary policy as their economies strengthen and inflationary pressures rise.
Such concerns, however, can be exaggerated. After all, current inflation is well within Bank Indonesia's target of 3.5 percent to 5.5 percent for the year. It is also well below historical averages. Year-on-year inflation reached 12 percent in late 2008, for example, and was as high as 7 percent as recently as February last year before falling to 3.56 percent in March this year.
Not all of the inflation in recent months was domestically generated, however. Weaker trade figures are partly responsible for a decline in the value of the rupiah, suggesting that imported inflation has been adding to the problem. The currency declined by 2.9 percent against the greenback in the three months ended last month, its worst quarter since 2009.
The trade deficit in May was almost US $490 million, far above the median US $128 million surplus forecast by nine economists polled by Dow Jones Newswires.
The economy is set to face even more inflationary pressures in the coming weeks with the beginning of a new school term and the Muslim religious festivals of Ramadan and Idul Fitri.
That said, there are good reasons for expecting inflation to remain under control in the second half of the year. One of these is the fact that much of the inflation earlier this year was linked to a transitory phenomenon – the expectation that the government would increase the price of subsidized petrol. Speculation led to shortages and a subsequent rise in the cost of transportation that ultimately proved unwarranted when parliament scrapped the subsidy reduction plan in late March.
Given the high cost of the fuel subsidies, parliament's decision could seriously damage Jakarta's fiscal position. However, it has helped ensure inflation remains muted for the remainder of the year.
Inflation will also be held in check by a rise in domestic food production. Higher yields and an increase in planted areas are expected to lift rice and corn production, for example. White sugar production is also expected to exceed last year's output as a normal dry season helps increase extraction rates.
Most economists believe that Bank Indonesia, the central bank, will avoid responding to higher inflation by raising interest rates. For some time now, the monetary authorities have sought to sustain economic growth and contain inflation without raising the benchmark interest rate, which has remained steady since a cut in February. Instead, Bank Indonesia has been looking at other approaches, including tighter lending regulations aimed at preventing the development of property bubbles.
In the medium and long term, however, Indonesia will have to deal more directly with underlying structural problems. The oil subsidy is unsustainable. It will eventually have to be reduced significantly if the nation is to have any realistic chance of paying off its debts and allocating badly needed funds to infrastructure, education and health. Inevitably, this will involve higher inflation, at least initially.
More also needs to be done to encourage Indonesians to consume a greater variety of foods instead of focusing on a small range of staples that carry increasingly high prices. According to the International Rice Research Institute, Indonesia's per capita rice consumption stands at 139kg per year, among the highest in the world. But the country has not been self-sufficient in rice since the 1980s, when farmland was used to build housing estates for a larger, more urbanized population.
These are long-term issues, of course. They are not the sort of things that any hand-wringing about the relationship between inflation and the country's allegedly loose monetary policy will resolve.

Any recommendations for daughter with dyslexic symptoms?
Community Question is a category inspired by you. Here and there readers write in with questions that are better served by the varied, experiential knowledge of those who read and contribute in the comments.
The following question is from Janelle A.
"Hi! We are trying to tutor our daughter who has been diagnosed with "dyslexic symptoms." She's in 4th grade, a super hard worker, and smart. We have started with the Wilson Language Training program, but would love to hear any opinions or suggestions from Pioneer Woman readers. Reading, writing and math are all needed."
Does anyone have any personal experiences with dyslexia to assist Janelle in meeting her daughter's educational needs?

While dyslexia is on the forefront, every teaching person should be aware of dyscalculia also. Have a daughter who has had dyscalculia all her life making its appearance in high school math class though its symptoms were in her life all along. This child struggled with math like no other person I have ever seen til then and to now.
Also involved with her difficulty in the math arena is the ability to distinguish directions, read maps, and follow road directional signs. She has traveled the world but has difficulties in airports and always has to have a guide and leave tons of time for transfers and making connections.
This diagnosis has not interrupted a world-renowned career in working with women and helping disadvantaged women in several countries but it does give her some anxiety in new situations.
Onita On Monday, April 15 at 10:20 am
It looks like you have lots of suggestions and interesting program recommendations.
I am in my twentieth year as a special education instructor. My thought would be that "dyslexia" is a very broad term and that with my students, I look to see specifically what academic issues each individual student is having. Is it a matter of letter reversals, difficulty tracking, figure-ground discrimination, letters, numbers, etc.? Some kids have only one or two areas of weakness, others have multiple.
Look to what has worked for other with similar problems ~ don't give up. Learning differently doesn't make a student less intelligent and does not keep a student from succeeding.
Nikki On Monday, April 15 at 10:22 am
Intense training focused on dyslexic hotpots. I had a niece and nephew both with severe dyslexia… and once they got that training… boy their minds took off. They both are straight A students and heading for college.
Charley Trafzer On Monday, April 15 at 10:29 am
Yes!!! Go to Burton Reading.com It is a homeschool reading program for beginning readers and troubled readers. An amazing program – will take your time working with your child on a one to one basis.
Mary On Monday, April 15 at 11:59 am
Our son has always been a great reader, but he has struggled with dysgraphia. We used two products that made a huge difference:
* Phonics Tutor Classic, which teaches using the Orton-Gilliningham phonograms and is a great way to teach phonics and spelling to all of your students
* Dianne Craft's brain integration exercises for dysgraphia.

My daughter, now a freshman in college on the Dean's List, is dyslexic. We did not home school and did not get any help whatsoever from public school. I was a single mom that worked full time and we had to figure it out all on our own. Our school system told us that my daughter compensated too well for them to help her. While reading was a major struggle in her very early elementary years, by being read to and slowing down and taking her time she overcame that obstacle pretty well. Where once she hated to read she started to read for pleasure in early middle school and never stopped. She loves books. Her main issue is math now. During her senior year in high school she had an algebra teacher that broke it down for her in an artistic way(she's a double art/psychology major in college). By relating it to something that she is interested in and understands she finished the year with a 95% in Algebra II her senior year. She almost failed algebra I the year before. The only thing that I found that worked was for us was relating everything in terms that were interesting to her and making sure that she took her time and paid close attention to what she was doing. I also became a professional proof reader for her papers. I didn't just correct the mistakes I found on her papers though. I showed them to her and explained to her why they were wrong. I think more than anything it was her own hard work and determination that got her to where she is now. Good luck.
Lynda On Monday, April 15 at 1:25 pm
I have no personal experience with dylexia, however apparently my husband's niece learned as an older child that she had dyslexia. She was told to put a clear green sheet over whatever she was reading. From what I hear, it helped. I have no idea how, or if she still does that, but I figured I'd share that and you can do what you'd like with it. I hope you find something that helps your child.
Jessica Long On Monday, April 15 at 1:40 pm
My son has the exact same story… only we have got him the help he needed! We took him to Vision Therapy… he didn't have dyslexia, but he did have symptoms. He was struggleing in reading, writing and math… basically anything with reading and reading comprehension. I took him to the Vision Enhancement Clinic in Springfield, MO once a week for vision therapy. They gave us things to do at home for him and also had us do specific exercises at home. He does not need glasses… his eye sight itself was fine… it had to do with some tracking issues along with some other things… but after 9 months of this he has greatly improved. He is now reading at a 5th grade level (which is the grade he is in) and is doing better with writing and spelling… however we still continue to work on those. They put us in touch with a couple of computer programs that really helped him as well. It was an intense years with homework and vision enhancement work… but he too was a hard worker! Maybe try to see if anyone in your area offers anything like this to help.

Don't know where you live, but check out Neuhaus Education Center in Bellaire Texas – web address is http://www.neuhaus.org. I worked there years ago and saw the language therapists work miracles. Student after student saw success, many graduated high school with honors, went onto college and then into careers! They also have classes for adults too.
Neuhaus not only helps parents but they will teach their methods to educators and have scholarships available. Here is the web address for parent faqs: http://neuhaus.org/parent-faqs/ . As in many cases, not all programs work for every child, so the more choices you have the more of a chance you will find the right program!
PS: one of President Bush's children (41, not 43) was a student of theirs years ago (I met Mrs. Bush at the Center.) Good luck!

We tried Bright Solutions. My heart is breaking for you. My son,now 20, struggles. He has lost out on 2 college baseball scholarships so far. He is 'committed' to another baseball program in the fall but is currently at home going to JC trying to get eligible. Our problem was that he wasn't diagnosed until middle school. He went to parochial school and they didn't have the resources to help him. With extensive tutoring, he was an honor student until HS. He couldnt handle it. I wish we had found out sooner and that i had homeschooled him. He is so bright. I pray that yall find something that works for your child. The hardest part is that their learning 'difference' isnt visible and, in my son's case, he was just judged as lazy. I hate the public school system in Florida!
Jaceetoo On Tuesday, April 16 at 2:25 pm
Catherine please tell your son not to give up on his dream. There are universities that have programs for their students who have learning challenges. Try checking with blind organizations – many have programs to help students transition into the college learning environment. And a last resort is to talk to the baseball coaches. If your son is a player they want, they can help you move mountains. Good luck!
Catherine On Monday, April 15 at 8:08 pm
Oh my son's issue is 'phonological processing disorder'.
Sandra Scholten On Monday, April 15 at 8:46 pm
I'm a home school mom and we are using Barton which is an Orton-Gillingham based system. It is VERY user friendly. We are almost done with level II and are seeing improvements already. But most importantly renewed self-esteem, confidence and a new interest in trying to read again. Even if you don't use Barton watch the web videos on http://www.brightsolutions.us/ it is so eye opening and encouraging to see your child in a new light! God Bless you on your journey.
Jane On Monday, April 15 at 10:11 pm
Find an optometrist who is FCOVD certified (Fellow of the College of Optometrists in Vision Development) and have your child's vision tested. It can be 20/20 but still present vision problems that regular eye tests can't pick up.
Connie T. On Tuesday, April 16 at 8:54 am
We also used an Orton-Gillingham approach. The system we used was Preventing Academic Failure (PAF) which was designed for use in classrooms. It was affordable and usable for our homeschooled son. Barton's Reading & Spelling System is also great! We read Overcoming Dyslexia by Sally Shaywitz and found it to be very helpful. We also used Dianne Craft's Brain Integration Therapy Manual techniques. Both Ms. Craft and Ms. Barton are very supportive on their websites. They are great about answering questions and returning emails. Thanks for posting this question. I'm gaining a lot of great ideas from all the replies.
Jen On Tuesday, April 16 at 9:05 am
My daughter was diagnosed with dyslexia when she was 9 (over 7 years ago). We found Sequential Spelling to be a huge help. Also, avko.org is a wonderful website where we found numerous resources and advice. She is doing extremely well today as a singer/songwriter. She loves to read, write and knows that dyslexia is just the way she was made and sees the world through different eyes.
Kari On Tuesday, April 16 at 10:25 am
I would recommend the Barton Reading & Spelling System.
You can find tutors in your area on the website. I am a tutor using this system and I've seen great improvement in the students using this system.
shellyblair On Tuesday, April 16 at 3:06 pm
Hi, the best "trick" we used on my daughter was choosing colored transparency sheets that she puts over anything she reads. Pink and Blue work best for her, but other colors will work too. Also have heard if they wear glasses, tinting them the color that works best will drastically improve reading skills.
LillyVal On Tuesday, April 16 at 3:24 pm
There is a group called Bookshare that will get books in alternate format for people with a print disability or Dyslexia. The services are free. So you could listen to books, magazines, or newspapers in various electronic formats…lots of kids have more comprehension when they hear as well as see the words.
Alex On Tuesday, April 16 at 4:00 pm
There is a center located in Southeast Kansas that is fantastic in helping individuals with reading difficulties. I used to work there as a tutor. Check them out here: http://www.pittstate.edu/department/psychology/center-for-human-services/READing/ or http://carrdinc.org/. Good luck and hang in there!

Once you finally figure out what is going on, it is a huge relief,
It was suggested that I attend a seminar and I sat speechless and very emotional as THIS was it, it was what I was dealing with, everything I had tried and failed with.
Susan Barton's system, as previously mentioned has been wonderful, and they offer great support as well
sharon K On Tuesday, April 16 at 8:29 pm
My dearest daughter has dyslexia which somehow, everyone chose to brand her as a slow learner.Thanks to Scottish right who tested and diagnosed my daughter we were able to get her the help she needed. She had a tutor everyday after school since the 4th grade. There are laws that protect your child and provide extra needs in the classroom. Today she is 29 a graduate of Texas Tech and a beautiful as well as successful individual. My dearest friend, life is tough, teach your child all that you can. Make her talented and successful in other areas other that in the classroom. My daughter cleaned horse stables just so she could ride, money being very tight…..She rode motorcycles, she danced, she played volley ball but mostly she was and is the love of my Life……She is artistic beyond belief…….Find help through the Shriners Hospital…..they will not let you down……
Elizabeth M On Tuesday, April 16 at 8:41 pm
Oh my do I know about this subject…both of my children have varying degrees of dyslexia. My daughter is 16 and was diagnosed with mild dyslexia in reading and moderate to severe in math. Her school at the time had a one on one program that helped immensely from 1 – 6th grade. She tutored with these teachers for two hours a day, by the 6th grade she was working at grade level and ready to go onto middle school with out any additional help. My son has moderate dyslexia in reading and was diagnosed with auditory processing disorder in the 4th grade. He is now being home schooled and he attends a tiny private school for one hour a day where the does Seeing Stars. Seeing Stars has changed his little life. He started there last year in September and was reading at a high 1st grade level. We have been there for 8 months and he is now reading above a 4th grade level. I NEVER thought he would ever read as well as he is reading now. He is still a little slow, but he is reading and spelling words that I would have never thought he would be able to read. I can't say enough good things about their program. I believe that Seeing Stars is a part of the Linda Mood Bell program, but don't quote me on that, I am not entirely sure. Anyways, we are homeschooling the rest of his day after his class in the morning and so far it has gone so well. It has been nice to give him the time and space he needs to get his work done without the time constraint of the classroom. He is happier and he is focused because there aren't all the distractions at home like there is in a regular classroom. Let me tell you, I know the frustration in trying to find the right road for your child with learning differences. It has been a long journey for me with both of my children. My advise to you is never give up in getting your child the right help. If one program you try doesn't work, then go onto the next program until you find the key that unlocks your child's ability to learn. Because believe me, your child is so smart, as most dyslexics are. It is just finding the magic key to their learning style. Hope this helps just a bit. Blessings to you. !! Elizabeth

I taught reading to students with learning disabilities. 1.) I found that If I started with what they did know, I could work in a more effficient manner. (Blue Back Speller is cheap and lets you go through each "piece" that they need to know.) 2.) Look up automaticity (words we automatically recognize). It is so important to read and WRITE things that are easy and interesting to the student.3.) Make crafts that use the concept you are working on-especially vowel combinations and things like a G that sounds like J. 4.) Not every word comes from a Latin root. They will never be able to sound out words with a french origin like "limousine". Its important to have students know that some words just have to be recognized.5.) Praise, encourage, let your child know when they do get it right. Tell them that they can break it down and then help them do it.
Laura On Wednesday, April 17 at 7:36 pm
You've gotten a lot of good advice, and I wish you the best! I learned early on that there isn't really a magic bullet when dealing with dyslexia because each kid is different. Eighteen months to three years of an Orton-Gillingham program such as Barton will work for a lot of kids. This approach did not work well for my daughter; it's as if nothing stuck. Because we have seen some issues with her ability to cross the midline we are trying Diane Craft's Brain Integration Therapy and right-brained spelling approach and are seeing some improvements in her visual memory (believe me, it was HARD to let go of the phonics)! I'm also doing Craft's Biology of Behavior supplements, of which the essential fatty acids are most important because the brain needs this type of fat in order to efficiently process information from one side to the other. This is also an affordable way to start.
We are planning on trying a Lindamood-Bell program (LiPS and Seeing Starts) this summer. If worse comes to worse, I will have her do Davis Dyslexia Therapy, which seems a bit odd but works extremely well for certain people. There's a lot out there, so I encourage you to do some research and start with what YOU feel will best work for your child.
Lori B. On Thursday, April 18 at 11:57 am
Our 8 year old girl was officially diagnosed a year ago with a mild to moderate case. Since then, she's been tutored in the Barton Method. It's been amazing. Ashley is a little over half way through the curriculum and is now fluent in reading, and is conquering her spelling words! I've just ordered math tools from Crossbow Education, in particular a movie called Times Tales which unlocks their ability to retain multiplication facts. Prayers to you and your family!!

Thoughts from an OT:
I am an occupational therapist (and a mother of a dyslexic daughter) and I strongly encourage you to have an occupational therapist evaluate your child who specializes in pediatrics and learning disabilities. Here in NY, I have evaluated many homeschooled students after their parents have formally requested it.
Ask that they specifically assess the child's ocularmotor skills, visual perceptual skills and their concept of laterality/directionality.
Ocularmotor skills are more specifically assessed through a developmental ophthalmologist (these skills are not assessed during a typical eye exam). I find that many children with dyslexic symptoms have a deficit in this area. Very simply, it is the bodies ability to equally control the muscles around the eyes and keep them on a single point whether steadily or moving left to right. A deficit in this area makes both reading and writing very difficult. My daughter went through vision therapy for difficulty with ocularmotor skills and saw great improvement. One simple screen for a piece of this is to hold a pencil topper about three inches from your child's nose. Ask them to look at the object while you count. They will look cross-eyed, which is what you want. Watch the eyes carefully. If they are not able to maintain this position for 15 seconds occularmobility may be a concern. Also, have them cover one eye at a time and follow the pencil as it moves left to right and up and down. If you see bouncing or jerking of the eye, or they rub their eyes afterwards, or they turn red or watery, ocular mobility may be a concern.
Your local OT should be able to assess visual perceptual skills and give you ideas for home.
Reversals are often extinguished in reading before they are in writing. Improving your child's sense of laterality and directionality can improve their brains ability to recognize reversals. This often achieved through simple home exercises that an OT should be able to provide you. Does your child know his left from is right without using little tricks (ex. L shaped hand.) This is the most basic deficit of laterality.
Another piece that we address often with the help of a speech therapist is an increase of phonological awareness. The school should be able to assess this for you as well.
I do believe that these children need to be taught in a different way with a focus on their strengths. These OT related ideas are not a solution to dyslexia, but they are a piece of the puzzle. It is also important to keep in mind that we are very fortunate to live in a time that technology is rapidly improving and very socially acceptable to help our little ones.
Good luck!!

Learning Ally is a HUGE resource of audiobooks and textbooks for dyslexic kids. It is well worth the money per year $98.00. You do have to have it documented by a professional that you have a learning disability. Check your local library also for audiobooks especially for the blind. Our dyslexic daughter qualified for a free player and tapes. The audiobooks really help with building vocabulary.

Americans have adopted a reform agenda for their schools that calls for excellence in teaching and learning. School officials across the nation are hard at work targeting instruction at high levels for all students. Gaps remain, however, between the nation's educational aspirations and student achievement. To address these gaps, policy makers have recently focused on the qualifications of teachers and the preparation of teacher candidates. This book examines the appropriateness and technical quality of teacher licensure tests currently in use, evaluates the merits of using licensure test

This publication deals with two hot challenges for project managers and testers. The first one is to deliver a software product within a competitive time and with a satisfying quality to the customer. The second is to deal with the growing complexity of software applications using Internet technology. Network infrastructure beyond the control of individual development projects is to be integrated as well as legacy software, security, and Web technology. Due to faster development cycles the quality of an application has to be monitored during operation, since the usage of the application and th

About Aletha and this blog
This is the Free Soil Party blog. Posts unless otherwise specified are written by myself, Aletha, co-founder, dreamer, feminist revolutionary political philosopher. Heart, a contemporary feminist revolutionary dreamer veteran of feminist bulletin boards, with her own blog, life experiences, and perspectives, here as co-administrator and first announced candidate, running for President, may also post, and perhaps other guest writers. The purpose of this blog is free discussion of things relating to feminist revolution. The party was revived by my circle of friends, aka consciousness raising group, in 1977, when we were teen feminist rebels. Its past was of interest as a party to abolish slavery. White women were also legally slaves in those days. Men generally have attached some sense of property to relationship partners. Marriage ceremonies traditionally have included the bride vowing to obey the groom. Some women still believe this is proper, duty of a wife. Some women, including myself, view women selling their sexuality to survive as sex slaves. Others may call them sex workers, but few would keep on renting their bodies for such degradation if they believed they had a reasonable alternative, a way out of that life. There are ways to portray women artistically. The boundaries of artistic expression may be difficult to define, but sexual slavery is not remotely about free expression or informed consent. When a woman wants sex, it is not a commodity, so she will not want money or abuse for her pleasure. Beauty contests are emblematic of how this culture makes beauty a commodity, a standard of value to waste the time, energy, and health of women. I object to women displayed like meat for the devouring gaze of men. Female sexuality is not property to be possessed by men, or rented out for male pleasure.
I also strongly believe other creatures get no respect from this culture where I live and am forced to participate as best I can. I am a thoroughgoing rebel and skeptic, unlikely to believe anything coming from conventional wisdom. My central issue is fair representation for women, but many issues also disturb my attention. I see many linkages others may deny. For them, they may be right, or they might just be in denial, hoping this mess the world is now coping with has nothing to do with how men see things. Connections are important, so if I make connections a reader does not see, discussing that might be of interest. I make mistakes like anybody else.
I am no Marxist, though some may call me socialist because I think the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness means something, like the purpose of government to secure? I am not easily categorized, skeptical of all isms and belief systems. I do not consider my views extreme or impractical. On the contrary. I do not hate men. My intimate partners have been male. I can recognize great variation among men as well as women. Men have had a few good ideas, but some really bad ones for me and other living things. One of the worst is getting the right to life mixed up with abortion. Men have a woman to contend with as House Speaker now, and other likely contenders for President. Some women are more rebellious than others, needless to say. Some women have sold out, so they will not appear too threatening or likely to rock the boat. I see the Democratic Party as too timid to try anything that its power brokers think would threaten chances for the big prize.
Free Soil is meant to be anything but timid; this party challenges everything imaginable. Men do have a few good ideas, some arguably useful for some purposes, but the rest ought more likely get thrown out than reformed. Men will be allowed to post here, unless a moderator decides a man had nothing of value to say. This is not an arena for madmen or fools, and will be moderated to some extent because of what the likes of them can do to free discussion. For now, that means all comments will have to wait for approval. That is subject to change, depending on circumstances and available options. The blog itself will be evolving in appearance, links, sidebar features. This is a new blog, as of January 2007. I am new to blogging, though I have been posting infrequently online for several years. Most of the home site went live before 2000. The first post is the current latest article on the home site, One Messed Up Value System.
Hit counters are inflated by spammers.
If you would like to submit a reciprocal blogroll or resource link, or your commentary on feminist revolution or something in the news, drop me a line at email@example.com
There may be occasions when a story must be removed, temporarily or permanently, without notice, due to legal considerations or upon request of a concerned party. There has been at least one such occasion already.
This was edited on July 5, 2007 to add the disclaimer immediately above and the bit about Heart running for President, which she announced on her blog July 4, 2007.

If Premier League Clubs Were Rock Bands
If your Premier League club was a rock band, which rock band would it be?
Would your favorite club be The Rolling Stones with a bunch of players over the hill? Or perhaps they're more like Foreigner with the lack of Englishmen in their starting lineup?
- Arsenal – The Gunners used to be on top of the world, but no matter how gifted they are, they still feel like REM to me. Lots of talent but they're never going to be as big as they once were.
- Aston Villa – Martin O'Neill, himself from Northern Ireland, would feel right at home with The Undertones, the Northern Irish band best known for the song "Teenage Kicks." While they're not teenagers, Villa has plenty of youth talent such as Ashley Young, James Milnar, Isaiah Osbourne and Curtis Davies.
- Blackburn Rovers – The heavy metal sound of Motorhead is a perfect accompaniment to Blackburn's rough and tumble style of play. It makes you wonder if Motorhead's "Ace Up Your Sleeve" tour was named for Blackburn's own "ace," aging striker Robbie Fowler.
- Bolton Wanderers – It's appropriate that Bolton is synonymous with Metallica. "Enter Sandman" is an appropriate title for watching Bolton apply their physical tactics which can quickly become boring to watch.
- Chelsea - If the Blues move from Stamford Bridge to Battersea, then Pink Floyd would be the best resemblance to Chelsea. But if a move isn't on the cards, then the closest thing to the Chelsea of the 1970′s would be the Sex Pistols, who routinely hung out at boutique shops on the trendy Kings Road near Chelsea's home.
- Fulham – While not a rock band per se, Blur's bass player Alex James is a massive Fulham supporter.
- Everton – The most famous rock star synonymous with Everton is the one and only Paul McCartney, a self-confessed Toffees supporter.
- Hull City – What do Hull City and Faith No More have in common? One hit wonders.
- Liverpool – Most neutral fans continue to be awestruck by the amazing football anthems that emanate from Anfield stadium on Merseyside. The only rock band that gets strangers singing as much as Liverpool fans do is Queen, creator of several rock anthems. Plus, like Liverpool, they were big in the late seventies and early eighties.
- Manchester City – With a song called "Champagne Supernova," who else but Oasis would be a perfect fit for City, especially since the band members are already massive fans.
- Manchester United – There are few football clubs who are as big worldwide and as polished as U2. It often seems that they can't do any wrong. Alex Ferguson is Bono, saying whatever he wants whenever he feels like it. Both United and U2 seem indestructible.
- Middlesbrough – Middlesbrough supporter and rocker Chris Rea is best known for the aptly named single "The Road To Hell."
- Newcastle United – Did AC/DC lead singer Brian Johnson pick Newcastle as his favorite team, or was it the other way around? AC/DC's song titles seem made for Newcastle United. Consider "It's A Long Way To The Top," "Ballbreaker" (a tribute to Joey Barton?), "Moneytalks" (Mike Ashley), "Highway to Hell" and "The Razors Edge" (on the precipice of relegation).
- Portsmouth – The Pompey squad features seven Frenchmen, and players from Cameroon (Lauren), Iceland (Hermann Hreiðarsson ), Senegal (Papa Bouba Diop), Nigeria (John Utaka and Kanu), Croatia (Niko Kranj?ar), Scotland (Richard Hughes ), Wales (Richard Duffy), Mali (Djimi Traoré), Ireland (Marc Wilson) and Canada (Asmir Begovic). If Portsmouth was a rock band, they'd be Motley Crue.
- Stoke City - When you think of Stoke's Rory Delap, you have to think Cheap Trick.
- Sunderland – If Sunderland was a rock band, it'd be the Eurythmics fronted by guitarist and Sunderland supporter Dave Stewart.
- Tottenham Hotspur – Genesis's lead singer and drummer Phil Collins is reportedly a massive Spurs fan.
- West Bromwich Albion – Tony Mowbray's side this season hasn't been playing like worldbeaters, but they have the world's greatest guitarists, Eric Clapton, as one of their fans. Clapton played a concert for skipper John Wile's testimonial year back in 1982 and draped an Albion scarf across his guitar on the back sleeve of his album "Backless."
- West Ham United – Any investor considering a buy-out of West Ham United should heed the song title "Run to the Hills" by Iron Maiden whose band leader Steve Harris is a massive Hammers fan.
- Wigan Athletic – It's only fitting that the best known band from Wigan, The Verve, have a discography with an album titled "A Northern Soul" and song titles such as "Lucky Man" and "Bitter Sweet Symphony." "Lucky Man" could have been written about Paul Jewell after he helped the club escape relegation. And the chorus of "Bitter Sweet Symphony" with the lyrics "I can't change, I can't change" could sum up the mood of the town of Wigan who seem rooted to their rugby league roots instead of coming out in droves to watch their local football team.

Originally an actor from Marietta, Georgia, Michael landed a handful of roles in film, television and stage, including the critically acclaimed independent feature film, Sleepover, which features an original score by the late Jeff Buckley. Michael finally admitted he was a terrible actor, a confession which led him to his true love: writing.
He is the author of several screenplays in development, including his latest, the apocalyptic V.A.L.C.O., them 2009 Nicholl Fellowship quarterfinalist Hunter Gatherer and his first television pilot. His Italian drama, La Strada del Vino, was a semi-finalist in the Nicholl Fellowship. Michael recently completed McCleskey, the compelling true-story of Warren McCleskey, a convicted Georgia death-row inmate wrongfully executed in 1991.
Theatrically, Michael had the distinct pleasure of working with Tony-award winning actor Richard Easton and Lucille Lortel nominee Logan Marshall-Green on his play, Turning Night in the Dying House. His death-row drama, Red Herring (a prelude to McCleskey) premiered at the New York International Fringe Festival. It featured Tony-award nominee, Thomas Jefferson Byrd and Shane McRae and won "Most Outstanding Play of the Summer". Michael was accepted as a participant playwright in Lincoln Center Theatre's Directors Lab and received a Traube Fellowship from the Society of Stage Directors and Choreographers. Michael has recently completed his newest play, rapeseed and is sporadically at work on another, Hammer Lane.
Michael and his wife currently reside in Los Angeles, where few understand how to produce, participate or appreciate the theatre. But, the weather sure is nice.

Aaron Wallace
Elizabethton police arrested a Unicoi man Tuesday night shortly after he allegedly robbed a gas station on Milligan Highway.
Officers were called to the Sunoco at 1258 Milligan Hwy., around 7:30 p.m. Tuesday. Minutes before, a man reportedly entered the store and demanded money from the cashier. The cashier gave the suspect cash and he fled from the scene.
As he fled, witnesses reported seeing the robber get into a nearby parked vehicle. A witness followed the vehicle, reportedly a silver Saturn Vue, as it turned onto Milligan Highway and then onto Swadley Road.
A short time later, officers with the Johnson City Police Department located the vehicle, parked and unoccupied. Inside, they found several items of clothing that resembled those reported by witnesses as being worn by the robber.
A police K9 tracked the area, leading officers to a nearby apartment where they believe the suspect had been after the robbery. He already left the residence, though, by the time police arrived. Meanwhile, authorities determined the vehicle was registered to a relative of Aaron Wallace, 30, 1080 Virginia Ave., Unicoi.
A short time later, Wallace was located by officers at a residence on North Barton Street in Johnson City.
According to police, he was wearing jeans and dark running shoes that matched the suspect descriptions given by witnesses and captured on surveillance video.
Wallace was charged with aggravated robbery and transported to the Carter County Jail where he was being held on $50,000 bond. He is scheduled to appear in General Sessions Court on March 4.
A robbery that occurred at the same business on Jan. 10 remains under investigation. No charges have been placed in that incident at this time.
In that robbery, the suspect entered the store and demanded cash from the clerk.
The suspect concealed his hands, but threatened the store clerk that he was armed. He left the business with an undisclosed amount of money.
The suspect was described as being a white male, approximately 6-feet tall, medium build. At the time of the robbery, he was wearing blue jeans, running shoes and a grey hooded sweatshirt. It is believed he used a T-shirt or similar article of clothing to partially conceal his face.
Anyone with information regarding the robbery is asked to contact the Elizabethton Police Department at 542-4141 or Crime Stoppers at 542-7574.

Self Bows
Most bows I build are from solid Osage Orange. Prized by Native American bowyers, Osage bows are strong, durable, and can last decades. Due to the nature of growing trees, no two bows will be the same. Some will have snaky limbs and some will even have knot holes that you can see through! In no way does this affect the performance of the bow, but it sure turns heads.
The following pictures are typical of the bows I make. Made of Osage with exotic wood tip overlays (I like to use jet-black cow horn, bloodwood or purpleheart for their contrast). An average of 15 coats of Tru Oil give my bows a warm glow and brings out the natural "fire" in highly-polished Osage. I prefer to shoot the arrow off my knuckle (fletching doesn't hurt when prepared correctly) but if you are used to shooting off a shelf, I'll put one on for you. Adding Rattlesnake Skins is always an option for the ultimate camouflage.
This is my personal hunting stick. 8 years later, it still holds it's cast and has taken a beautiful "bronze" coloration. (62″ tip-to-tip, 65#@26″)
Osage self-bow w/ shelf, diamondback skins, purpleheart tip overlays
Osage self-bow with see-through knot and dozen cedar arrows
NEW: Osage self-bow with "flipped" tips, shelf w/ beadwork, cow horn tips.

Trick Or Treating Fun For The Jolie-Pitts
It was trick or treating fun for Brad Pitt, Angelina and their brood on Halloween night.
The family went to a neighborhood near the Hollywood Hills and trick or treated without any security people!
Brad dressed as DJ Lance from Yo GabbaGabba! and Angelina had a bloody face with gray hair. As for the kids, Zahara was Batman, and Maddox and Shiloh wore military-themed outfits.
I'm pretty impressed they walked around without security. According to Radaronline.com, people stared but didn't bother them.

For buyers and sellers, the past few months have been schizophrenic.
In 2009, sellers are battling shrinking home values and a constricting pool of available buyers. Buyers are sensing opportunities on home prices and home mortgages -- if they have the credit, job security and ready cash to qualify.
Those in the best shape are homeowners who don't have to sell and homebuyers with good credit, a stash of cash and working knowledge of their mortgage options.
"There are going to be great opportunities out there," says William Poorvu, author of "Creating and Growing Real Estate Wealth" and professor emeritus at Harvard Business School in Boston. The question is: Is it right for you?
"Whether it's Bernie Madoff or your own mortgage broker, at a certain point you have to rely on your own judgment," he says.
Nationwide, home prices fell in 2008, but the exact amount is debatable. The National Association of Realtors, or NAR, puts the figure at 9.5 percent. Another yardstick, S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Indices, logs the decline at 18.2 percent.
The number of new homes being built is also down. Housing starts, which averaged 1.3 million annually from 2000 to 2003, dropped to 617,000 in 2008, according to Robert Denk, economist for the National Association of Home Builders in Washington, D.C.
You don't have to be a buyer or seller to realize that homes are sitting on the market. The current time between planting that "for sale" sign and accepting an offer is about 9.7 months, according to the NAR. That's down from almost 12 months in 2008, but higher than the industry's historical norms of six to seven months, says NAR Chief Economist Lawrence Yun.
Soule also had a secret weapon -- staging. His sister and brother-in-law, big fans of TV home fix-up shows, coached him on "decluttering" his house and getting it sale-ready. Soule moved out a lot of his nonessentials, cleaned out the garage and even rented a storage unit.
On the buy side, his new purchase -- a never-been-lived-in, bank-owned home -- was originally marketed at $174,000. He paid $150,000.
Jeanette Prose wasn't so lucky. Her 3-year-old, three-bedroom home in Hollister, Mo., was on the market for 16 months, and she finally accepted $15,000 less than her original asking price. It took another three months to close.
But she was also buying, and her seller was willing to negotiate. "We got a good deal, so everybody was happy," she says.
