text: election Democrats propose redistricting overhaul By Rick Pluta • Jul 15, 2015 Steve Carmody / Michigan Radio Democrats in the Legislature are calling for changes to how legislative districts are drawn. The effort is built off a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision. The decision says voters can take the power to draw district lines away from the Legislature and hand it to an independent commission. Michigan Senate GOP puts kibosh on no-reason absentee voting By Jake Neher • Jun 23, 2015 Lars Plougmann / Creative Commons http://michrad.io/1LXrdJM Republicans in the state Senate have put a damper on a legislative effort to allow no-reason absentee voting in Michigan. A Republican-sponsored bill in the state House seems to have wide bipartisan support. But if the House approves the bill, it appears it won't go any farther. Looking over political landscape, survey says Michigan voters don't like the view By Stateside Staff • Jun 17, 2015 National Ave Listen Listening... / 4:50 Our conversation with Detroit News Lansing reporter Chad Livengood Presidential candidates keep hopping on the bandwagon. 'Tis the season, after all. Michigan pollster's track record on 2014 election By Stateside Staff • Nov 5, 2014 Steve Carmody / Michigan Radio Listen Listening... / 4:37 In the final weeks of the campaign we heard poll results predicting a dead heat between Republican Gov. Rick Snyder and Democrat Mark Schauer. In the end, it was Snyder over Schauer 51% to 47%. How do pollsters view their track record? EPIC-MRA President Bernie Porn joined us on Stateside. He says the Republicans Governors Association blunted Schauer's momentum going into the election, which may have given Gov. Snyder the edge needed to win re-election. It wasn't a total loss for the Democrats, Porn says, because they won the state board and education posts, which he believes indicates that the party base for the Democrats turned out. He also attributes Gov. Snyder's re-election to an appeal to independent voters; Snyder received 72% of the independent vote in this election. Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Gary Peters received 88% of the independent vote in this race, showing how crucial independents are. *Listen to the interview with Bernie Porn above. Newly elected, Rep.

How well Gov. Rick Snyder does in Detroit. Pluta equates the election, in part, to a referendum on the governor's Detroit rescue plan, the bankruptcy, and the path forward. Gov. Snyder is not expected to win in Detroit, which is heavily Democratic. What will the Legislature look like after Election Day? By Stateside Staff • Nov 3, 2014 Steve Carmody / Michigan Radio With Election Day less than 24 hours away, candidates are out making their final push before voters hit the polls. What will the State House and Senate look like after these midterm elections? There are some tight races and the outcomes will determine what happens in statewide issues like taxes, school-funding, and fixing our roads. Kathy Gray from the Detroit Free Press Lansing Bureau is watching these races. Gray notes some things to look for during the election Tuesday night, such as how Mark Schauer does. Pro-marijuana proposals on the ballot in 11 Michigan cities By Stateside Staff • Oct 29, 2014 USFWS Listen Listening... / 3:54 On Nov. 4, voters in 11 Michigan cities will consider legalizing small amounts of marijuana. That's the largest number of municipalities to ever consider the question in a single election in the state. As Michigan Public Radio's Jake Neher reports, marijuana advocates think they can win all of them. Polarizing Politicians: Is a top-two primary the answer? By Stateside Staff • Oct 8, 2014 Ben+Sam / Flickr How would things change if, instead of the political system we have now, we moved to a "top-two" primary? In other words, one primary in which the top two candidates, regardless of party, move on to the general election. Paul deLespinasse is a professor emeritus of political science at Adrian College, and believes a big reason for gridlock in Congress and state legislatures in this country is our primary system. The polarizing reactions to the 'Hobby Lobby' case are more frightening than the Cold War By Jack Lessenberry • Jul 1, 2014 Listen Listening... / 3:03 I woke up this morning thinking about the election 38 years ago, when Jimmy Carter narrowly defeated Michigan's only president, Gerald Ford. That may sound a little bizarre, but before you call my psychiatrist, I was at the Ford Library just a few days ago. And something that happened yesterday made me nostalgic for that long-ago time, for a very modern reason. I have intensely followed politics all my life, and remember that election as though it were yesterday. The result was very close – the winner wasn't known 'till almost four the next morning. There was sadness and some bitterness on the part of the losers the next day. How Michigan stacks up when it comes to elections By Stateside Staff • Apr 9, 2014 Flickr Listen Listening... / 2:58 How is Michigan doing on the elections front? Click on the link to listen. The Pew Charitable Trusts' latest Elections Performance Index looked at all 50 states and the District of Columbia to measure how well they conducted their elections.

We talked to Sean Greene, research manager for The Pew Charitable Trusts, to find out. Listen to the full interview above. Our voting system needs repair By Jack Lessenberry • Jan 29, 2014 Listen Listening... / 3:00 This is an election year, and if you haven't noticed, you'll soon be engulfed by an inescapable tidal wave of advertising that will make that clear. Last night's State of the Union speech was, in one sense, a campaign platform. So were all of the various Republican responses. We've seen precious little bipartisan cooperation in Washington or in Lansing these last few years, and unless the martians invade, you can probably count on even less this year. But regardless of your politics, there is one area in which we need to cooperate to make changes. Not in for whom we vote, but in the mechanics of how we vote. Michigan House votes to raise cost to request recount By The Associated Press • Sep 19, 2013 Steve Carmody/Michigan Radio LANSING, Mich. (AP) - The Michigan House has voted to make candidates pay more to request a recount of ballots cast in an election.Legislation approved 95-9 Thursday would increase to $25 the per-precinct deposit required to initiate a recount of votes in state or local elections. It now costs $10 per precinct.Candidates would have to pay $125 per precinct if the election winner and loser are separated by more than 50 votes or a half-percentage point of votes cast, whichever is greater. You voting? Navigating tomorrow's elections in Michigan By Michigan Radio Newsroom • Aug 5, 2013 Steve Carmody / Michigan Radio On Tuesday, polls across Michigan will open for statewide local elections. Voters in 56 of Michigan's 83 counties will cast ballots.Given the city's recent bankruptcy declaration, all eyes will likely be on Detroit's mayoral race results. But as Michigan Radio's Steve Carmody reported, counties across the states will face the usual suspects in the poll booths: school and library millages, ward elections, and filling city council seats.How can you find out if there's an election in your county? What's on the ballot? And are you positive you're registered to vote? On second take, Benton Harbor voters approve "vital" operating millages By Lindsey Smith • May 7, 2013 Lindsey Smith / Michigan Radio People in Benton Harbor voted overwhelmingly to raise property taxes to support city services in Tuesday's election. That's after voters rejected a similar set of proposals last November. The city is already running in the red and the millage represents around 20-percent of the city's income. "You just can't see me dancing in the streets on the radio," Mayor James Hightower said over the phone Tuesday night, "It's a great day in Benton Harbor." Debbie Dingell decides against 2014 US Senate run By Associated Press • Apr 20, 2013 Wayne State University Democratic national committeewoman Debbie Dingell says she has decided not to run for the U.S. Senate seat that opened up with Carl Levin's impending retirement. Stateside: Dark money in campaign funding By Michigan Radio Newsroom • Jan 10, 2013 User: penywise / MorgueFile Listen Listening... / 11:46 Rich Robertson discusses the concept of "Dark Money." There is an ongoing trend of furtive campaign funding in Michigan. Rich Robinson, executive director of the Michigan Campaign Finance Network, said voters should demand transparency from their elected officials and their funding. Robinson called this undisclosed funding "dark money." And the two biggest sources of it are, according to Robinson, Michigan's Democrat and Republican parties. "My basic premise is that people don't spend large amounts of money in politics for philanthropic motives. Essentially, they're advancing their own interests in politics," he said. According to Robinson, citizens have a right to know where the money comes from. New law requires Michigan voters to affirm US citizenship By The Associated Press • Dec 29, 2012 Steve Carmody/Michigan Radio LANSING, Mich. (AP) - Voters must declare they are qualified to vote before getting a ballot under a bill signed into law by Gov. Rick Snyder.The Republican governor signed legislation Friday containing that requirement and other election law changes.Representatives for Snyder and Secretary of State Ruth Johnson say the leaders worked out concerns that led to his veto of similar legislation this summer. The new law doesn't include a citizen check-off box on ballot applications, which had been barred by a federal judge in the November election. Stateside: Keeping an eye on China's elections By Michigan Radio Newsroom • Nov 12, 2012 User Peng, Yanan / Wikipedia Listen Listening... / 10:44 Communist Party leaders are meeting in Beijing for an important shuffling of China's leadership, including the selection of a new president. Tom Watkins is the former state school superintendent and has been closely involved in building ties between Michigan and China. Tonight, he's flying to Beijing to be present for the selection of China's new president. Flint voters set to decide property tax hike on Tuesday By Steve Carmody • Nov 5, 2012 Steve Carmody/Michigan Radio The man leading the 'vote Yes' campaign is optimistic Flint voters will approve a big millage increase on Tuesday. Pastor Timothy Stokes says "at the end of the day, everyone's concerned about public safety." Stokes is the chairman of the 'Yes to Police and Fire Protection Committee'. The group has been campaigning for the passage of a six mill property tax increase that's on Tuesday's ballot. The final push to election day in Michigan By The Associated Press • Nov 4, 2012 Steve Carmody/Michigan Radio DETROIT (AP) - Michigan Democrats and Republicans are doing everything they can to make sure as many of their fellow state residents as possible show up at the polls.GOP spokeswoman Kelsey Knight says campaign staffers and volunteers are knocking on 200,000 doors and making 500,000 calls in this final week alone to encourage voters to show up. And to vote Republican, of course.Democrats are doing the same, but they didn't provide specific numbers.It's not clear what voter turnout will be like in the state, though. GOTV time: Michigan political campaigns shift into "Get Out The Vote" mode By Steve Carmody • Oct 24, 2012 Steve Carmody/Michigan Radio Political campaigns in Michigan are turning their focus to getting out the vote. In campaign offices across Michigan, a small army of volunteers is busy calling voters just to confirm who they're voting for. In the basement of the Michigan Republican Party headquarters, volunteers use telephones which automatically dial the telephone numbers of eligible Michigan voters. When someone answers the phone, the volunteer's first question is "If you are going to vote…are you going to vote for Mitt Romney…or Barack Obama?" Foreclosure numbers tumble again in Michigan (but a September spike is possible) By Steve Carmody • Sep 13, 2012 Steve Carmody/Michigan Radio Michigan's home foreclosure rate continues to trend lower, but a spike in foreclosure filings may be coming this month. August marked 22 straight months that Michigan's year over year foreclosure numbers declined. In fact, the number of foreclosure filings in Michigan in August fell 41 percent compared to August a year ago. Also, none of the 20 U.S. cities with the highest home foreclosure rates are located in Michigan. But Daren Bloomquist with Realty Trac says there are signs that the trend may soon end. Biden rallies labor workers in Detroit By Kate Wells • Sep 3, 2012 Kate Wells Vice President Joe Biden took the spotlight at Detroit's Labor Day parade. It's one more sign that the auto bailout is shaping up as a central theme of the Obama-Biden campaign. Last week Republican nominee Mitt Romney asked Americans if they were better off today than four years ago. Now comes part of the Democrats' response: you sure are if you're an auto worker. Democrats call for House inquiry into actions by Schmidt, Bolger By Rick Pluta • Jul 18, 2012 Jase Bolger / Facebook.com Democrats are calling for a special inquiry into whether House Speaker Jase Bolger and state Representative Roy Schmidt are guilty of ethics violations. A report by the Kent County prosecutor determined the two did not break any laws as they plotted Schmidt's switch to the Republican Party, but the report says they did attempt to undermine the integrity of an election. Their scheme included recruiting and paying a fake Democrat who would appear on the ballot against Schmidt. The idea was, the decoy would not campaign. Commentary: When the law is an ass By Jack Lessenberry • Jul 12, 2012 If you need proof that our system is sometimes irrational, consider this: Westland, a mostly blue-collar Wayne County community of about 80,000 people, is short of cash, like most cities these days. But Westland is apparently going to have to spend $60,000 to hold an unexpected and virtually meaningless primary election on a Wednesday in September. This is the first step in replacing Thaddeus McCotter, the congressman whose bizarre meltdown ended with his sudden resignation last week. Not to replace him for a full-term, but for just the few weeks remaining in his current one. Commentary: Drowning in Democracy By Jack Lessenberry • Jul 11, 2012 I hate to sound alarmist, but if all the proposals whose backers submitted signatures make it on the ballot and are approved by the voters, the result will destroy representative democracy in Michigan. Not only that, our economy will probably be destroyed as well, and we will enter fully into the era of government of special interests, by special interests, and for special interests. Michigan's constitution is fatally flawed in one big way. The framers thought there should be an opportunity for citizens to occasionally place a question before the people. Voters in Genesee and Oakland Counties fill vacant state house seats By Steve Carmody • Feb 28, 2012 (photo by Steve Carmody/Michigan Radio) Tuesday's election did not change the balance of power in the state house. Two vacant state house seats were up for grabs. Voters in Genesee County filled a vacant state house seat on Tuesday. The seat was made vacant last fall by a union-backed campaign that succeeded in recalling Republican Paul Scott. Last night, Republican Joe Graves defeated Democrat Steve Losey to serve out the final year of Scott's unfinished term. Graves says his message of jobs lead to the victory. How often should the Lansing city council meet? By Steve Carmody • Nov 28, 2011 (photo by Steve Carmody/Michigan Radio) The Lansing City Council will talk about the benefits of meeting less often tonight. The city charter requires the council to meet 50 times a year. City Clerk Chris Swope says, with that schedule, the council is wasting money. "It's not just a matter of that cost but…we should be more efficient. People shouldn't have to watch 50 times a year to keep an eye on what the city council is doing," says Swope. Swope proposes reducing the current city council meeting schedule from 50 required meetings to 26 meetings each year. Low voter turnout in off-year elections By Jennifer White, Jack Lessenberry & Zoe Clark • Nov 8, 2011 Cle0patra / Flickr Local elections are underway across the state today. Among other votes in Michigan, two mayors of large cities will be elected, Detroiters will vote on changes to their city charter, and a state representative is up for recall. But, despite the fact that there are important issues on today's ballots, very few voters will actually make it to the polls. Michigan Radio's Jennifer White spoke with Jack Lessenberry, Michigan Radio's Political Analyst, about why voter turnout is historically low in local elections that are held in so-called "off-years."

The bonuses and compensation at Merrill Lynch are front-page news in today's Wall Street Journal; here's the teaser from their site:
Merrill's $10 Million Men
Top 10 Earners Made $209 Million in 2008 as Firm Foundered
As bad as 2008 was for Merrill Lynch & Co., it was very good for Andrea Orcel, the firm's top investment banker. Although Merrill's net loss ballooned to $27.6 billion last year, Mr. Orcel, 45 years old, was paid $33.8 million in cash and stock, just shy of his pay in 2007.
While Merrill staggered, 11 top executives were paid more than $10 million in cash and stock last year, say people familiar with the situation. An additional 149 received $3 million or more.
Here's the link, but it's a subscriber-only article.
Meanwhile, here's a piece by Jim Hightower on Wall Street compensation from his website:
By Jim Hightower | Tuesday, March 3, 2009
Once upon a time, not so long ago, Citigroup was a fairytale financial conglomerate that was the richest corporation in all the land.
But it turns out that Citigroup's magic kingdom was, like most Wall Street firms, built on fairy dust, and—poof!—the kingdom has vanished. Last year, the once mighty bank lost $18.7 billion dollars, fired 39,000 employees, and was reduced from a golden chariot to a pumpkin. It only survives today because of a $52 billion bailout from taxpayers.
And where are the executive alchemists who created the fairy dust to make Citigroup seem like so much more than it was? These royal princes of the kingdom, who were paid millions for their magical creations, all retired in riches, but you still might find some of them at the bank.
Take Charles Prince, who was CEO of Citigroup until retiring a year and a half ago—just as the fairy dust went poof. Prince Prince, who'd been paid $67 million for his first three years of overseeing the kingdom, was graced with a $10 million bonus in his last year, even though the empire was collapsing around him. But Prince wasn't sent away. He continues to enjoy a well-appointed office at the bank, an executive assistant, a limo, and a chauffeur.
Even though Citigroup is now on a financial death watch, several other of its former executives continue to draw millions of dollars in personal perks. Sandy Weill, for example, not only has kept an office, staff, and his limo since retiring three years ago, but he's also paid a consulting fee of $3,800 a day.
You'd hope that at least one of these guys would have the integrity to say, "You know, this is a ripoff, and I don't deserve it." Rather than wait for that magical moment, however, Congress should step up now and pull the plug on these pampered princes of greed.
"Bank executives might leave, but perks often linger," www.statesman.com, February 22, 2009.

Panama Elida Natural Process
About Panama Elida Natural Process
2014 crop arrived end of July in Grainpro bags.
This coffee is highly regarded as a single origin espresso. It is a special, separate micro lot preparation of Elida Estate coffee which undergoes dry rather than washed processing. Varietal is 100% Catuai. While the majority of coffee produced on Elida Estate is washed, this particular small lot was patio dried in its pulp. To aid in drying, it was taken from the farm's higher growing elevations, where there is significant moisture, to a lower elevation where the temperatures were considerably warmer and the air drier. There, it dried naturally, over a period of 10 days on raised African sytle beds.
The combination of Elida's award winning Catuai, always a top contender in the Best of Panama competition, and the thoughtful, artisanal processing that the Lamastus family is experimenting with, augers for an extremely complex, earthy cup, pushing the edge of fruitiness to the extreme. A tremendous single origin espresso. This coffee has been chosen by several competitors in barista challenges and, as such, has been judged on the world stage.
Wilford (left) and father Thatcher Lamastus at the drymill
Very limited supply.
Cupping Characteristics: Deep, earthy and highly complex profile. Sweet, tropical fruit, chocolate, blueberry flavors. Syrupy, fruity, chocolaty.
Roasting Notes: FC+ will provide a great springboard for espresso, a recommended brewing format for this coffee. If you intend to brew it other than as an espresso you might want to lighten up a little to FC.
Panama coffee facts:
Population (2006): 1.3 million people
Coffee Production: 180,000 bags (60 kg)
Country bag capacity: 132 pounds - 60 kg
Domestic Consumption: 80,000 bags
Coffee Export: 100,000 bags
Cultivated Area: 26,000 Hectares (64,200 acres)
Harvests: October - February
Arabica Introduced: Arabica was imported from Costa Rica in 1820.
Specialty Coffee Regions: Boquete near Volcan Baru, Chiriqui.
Grades: Strictly Hard Bean (SHB), HB.
Farms: About 30,000 farms.
Botanical Varietals: Typica, Caturra, Gesha.
Panama is a rising star in the specialty coffee world. In the Boquete in particular, farmers are taking Arabica coffee cultivation to new levels and recent auctions of small, specialty lots have garnered record, if not silly, prices. Nonetheless, some of the coffee is excellent. Gesha, a varietal that stems from Ethiopia, has been grown here with good success, yet other cultivars noted above, can produce superb results.

Every step of our operations, from prospect generation to the final stages of production, is handled by experts who respect this world-renowned Texas tradition.
Oil and gas speculations have captured the focus of the investment market. This is because all sectors of business are deeply affected by the price and availability of fossil fuels. Oil and gas investments have performed well over the past several years as commodity prices continue in a steady overall uptrend, and the projected growth rate of nations such as China and India indicate continuation of this trend. In fact, growing concerns about increasing energy demands from developing nations are causing many nations to seek more energy independence.
In this complex energy market, EnerMax is consistently developing oil and gas prospects that have a solid geological foundation. We have assembled a team of regional experts to evaluate our projects from inception to completion. By taking advantage of technological innovations, we are strategically recovering domestic oil and gas reserves.
As the need to protect precious resources increases, forward-thinking companies such as EnerMax are providing an economical approach to oil and gas drilling. Using state-of-the-art technology, EnerMax selects high quality prospects, eliminating many dry holes and increasing recovered resources per each well drilled.
"Advanced technologies have been behind the logic-defying trends in E&P, allowing economic access to domestic resources that are concentrated in deeper formations, tighter zones, deeper water, more sensitive environments, and increasingly more unconventional settings."read more...

Richard Trudeau begins The Non-Euclidean Revolution with an admission: that he first studied non-Euclidean geometry only when he was asked to develop a course on the subject. He then went on to write a fascinating look at this area of mathematics.
I came to non-Euclidean geometry the same way — as did, I suspect, many of us who teach geometry courses for future secondary teachers. I didn't, however, think to roll that experience — which has become an unexpected area of expertise, as I've taught that course fourteen times at two different colleges — into writing a book.
Which is no loss, because I wouldn't have done any better than Trudeau has. In The Non-Euclidean Revolution, we have a mathematically rigorous explanation of this sea change in mathematics which is at the same time suitable for any educated reader. Yes, the mathematics is present and at the center of the exposition, but great mathematical proficiency is no prerequisite for benefitting from this book.
I teach an honors class called "Seven Big Ideas That Shaped Science" that examines, in as much detail as is possible in one semester, a major idea from each of seven area of science. In and among such ideas as evolution, DNA structure, and plate tectonics, I include a three-week unit on non-Euclidean geometry that uses Trudeau's book. It's a little more suited for a general audience that the textbook (Greenberg's ) I use for my upper-division geometry course. My honors students come from throughout my college; few if any are mathematics majors or even all that interested in mathematics. Nonetheless, I have found that this book achieves my goal of bringing some serious mathematics into our honors program and Trudeau's goal of bringing his readers through the 19th century revolution brought about by an alternative to Euclid's geometry.
Indeed, one major advantage of representing mathematics with non-Euclidean geometry is that the students have that opportunity to live through a revolution in their own understanding of mathematics. While they are all on the "modern" side of such scientific advances as the Big Bang theory, the periodic Law, or the structure of the atom, none of them has seen non-Euclidean geometry before — in Trudeau's words, they are "committed Euclideans". As a result, they get a chance to experience a change in mathematics of a magnitude comparable to how chemistry has been affected by Mendeleev's periodic table. Trudeau's book shines as a guide to that revolution.
Mark Bollman (email@example.com) is an associate professor of mathematics at Albion College in Michigan. His mathematical interests include number theory, probability, and geometry. His claim to be the only Project NExT fellow (Forest dot, 2002) who has taught both English composition and organic chemistry to college students has not, to his knowledge, been successfully contradicted. If it ever is, he is sure that his experience teaching introductory geology will break the deadlock.

Many good nights on this..
I bought this for car camping and float trips, when weight and size are not an issue. It has performed fine for over 2 years! No leaks for being laid on gravel bars and pine boughs. Lomg enough for me, at 6 foot tall. Easy choice for those in the market for a reliable mid-weight 3 season pad. Not a choice for backpacking, I go with my POE Hyper High MTN Pad.

LA CROSSE - Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen met today with law enforcement leaders, elected officials, community leaders, judges, and public safety officials from throughout La Crosse County at a law enforcement roundtable.
Topics discussed at the roundtable included Internet Crimes Against Children, open carry, drunk driving and considering 17-year-olds as juveniles .
"I would like to extend a thank you to everyone who was able at be part of today's law enforcement roundtable discussion. Each county has public safety issues that specifically affect them. While many of these issues affect the entire state, it is important for me to understand how the Department of Justice can assist La Crosse County," Van Hollen said. "Sharing information between the Department of Justice and local agencies helps law enforcement at every level."

Tim Kaine has a tricky task balancing his jobs as head of the DNC and Governor of Virginia. The DNC isn't too demanding these days, with the Democrats sailing smoothly along, but the governorship is a handful. His dual role is already causing a stir in Virginia and may complicate the state races for the Commonwealth's Democrats this year.
The Washington Post ever so gently opposes the President's stimulus plan in its current form: "Congress and the administration would be well advised to trim the stimulus bill's more dubious spending, or reallocate it and focus on a definitive financial sector cleanup. Fiscal stimulus can be a part of the solution, but only if it is 'targeted, timely and temporary.' The efforts so far don't quite match that description." What, are they taking direction from Rush Limbaugh too?
Minority Leader John Boehner said to "put me down in the 'no' category." On Meet the Press, Boehner pointed to millions to be spent on National Mall renovations and contraceptives as examples of the non-stimulative spending, and tweaked his Democratic opponents with their own language: "At the end of the day, it has to be targeted. . . . It's about preserving jobs and creating new jobs."
Robert J. Samuelson explains: "Parts of the House package look like a giant political slush fund, with money sprinkled to dozens of programs. There's $50 million for the National Endowment for the Arts, $200 million for the Teacher Incentive Fund and $15.6 billion for increased Pell Grants to college students. Some of these proposals, whatever their other merits, won't produce many new jobs. Another problem: Construction spending — for schools, clinics, roads — may start so slowly that there will be little immediate economic boost. The Congressional Budget Office examined $356 billion in spending proposals and concluded that only 7 percent would be spent in 2009 and 31 percent in 2010."
Nor is Fred Barnes optimistic that the President can get the 80 votes in the Senate he wanted: "But you can't do that if you stuff Republicans, if you dis them, if you ignore them, if you vote down any proposals that they want to add to the bills."
Jacob Weisberg's vision of the proper role of government differs substantially from that of most conservatives. But he shares their puzzlement and frustration about what President Obama is up to: "Obama must decide what government's goals are before considering the subordinate questions of what works and how much we can afford. Obama's vagueness about the federal role comes at a moment when clarity is especially needed. Our government is about to become bigger, more powerful and more expensive in order to deal with a sprawling economic crisis. Washington will take on responsibilities it hasn't shouldered in 75 years, such as directly alleviating unemployment and perhaps nationalizing banks. . . A president facing this situation needs to know what's temporary and what's permanent, if only because of the tendency for the one to become the other." It is hard to quibble with his conclusion: "[A]s he navigates the crisis, Obama would do well to figure out what he thinks about the fundamental question of government's responsibilities."
Howard Kurtz says MSNBC is in the tank for Obama. Next week Kurtz will confirm that the earth is round.
Mickey Kaus is right: it is fine if the UAW doesn't want to make anymore concessions. But then the taxpayers don't have to give their employer any more money, right? We should be so lucky.
But it gets worse. The Obama administration is going to reverse the Bush administration policy and allow California and thirteen other states to impose stricter fuel emissions and air quality standards on car manufacturers. What does this mean for the nearly bankrupt auto companies? "Once they act, automobile manufacturers will quickly have to retool to begin producing and selling cars and trucks that get higher mileage than the national standard, and on a faster phase-in schedule. The auto companies have lobbied hard against the regulations and challenged them in court." That in turn will increase the demand for still more bailouts, because the auto companies can't make cars profitably under the existing CAFE standards.
I finally found something on which I agree with Russ Feingold: we should require special elections to fill empty senate seats.
John McCain chides the President on his pick for Deputy Defense Secretary: "I think it's a bit disingenuous to announce strict rules and then nominate someone with a waiver from the rules that you just announced in one of the most important jobs in Washington." But then why don't McCain and his colleague Lindsay Graham actually try to block the confirmation? Seems sort of disingenuous for them to shrug their shoulders and move the nomination along.
Chris Wallace: "You know, there was a famous — I guess it was a movie called 'Garbo Speaks,' and the idea that this famously silent person actually talks and people are underwhelmed is the lesson here for Caroline Kennedy. Better to be America's silent princess?" Ouch.
Bill Kristol pens his last column for the New York Times. (In appropriately ego-centric style, the Gray Lady says it is "his last column." Period. No, Pinch, just for you.) The Times will now be relieved of the obligation to account for facts revealed only in his columns.

Photos and Review by Oyster.com Investigators
This mid-range property offers a unique take on the traditional Southwestern vibe by blending eye-catching Native American art with earth-toned contemporary decor. The lobby is a sight to behold, with a 14-foot shaman statue that looks like a great horned deity. Neon lights, stained glass, stylized light fixtures, Southwestern-style carpeting, rough-hewn wood banisters, and huge Native American rugs drench the lobby in color and spectacle.
A looping rock concert performed by local Grammy winner Robert Mirabal plays on large, flat-screen TVs above the small lobby lounge Club Nativo. On Saturday nights the club can become noisy with a DJ or live music -- keep this in mind when staying during the weekend. Also available on certain weekend evenings is the hookah lounge in an authentic teepee beside the heated indoor/outdoor pool.
The Nativo is charming to behold, and so are the views to the east (opposite I-25) of the nearby Sangre de Cristo Mountains. With such a dramatic setting, Albuquerque sees its share of movie crews from Hollywood and the Nativo has hosted several crews and stars including Lou Diamond Phillips. The hotel has its own film liaison on the staff.
Centrally located beside I-25
The Nativo sits along I-25 in central Albuquerque, making it a good choice for exploring different parts of the city. The Balloon Museum, Sandia Tram, and Old Town neighborhood are all within a relatively quick drive. Because the hotel is so close to I-25, the one drawback is traffic noise which may affect guests in west-facing rooms. The only shuttle service offered is a free shuttle to the Sandia Casino. A Starbucks is within walking distance next door.
Sitting along the Rio Grande at an elevation of 5,312 feet, Albuquerque occupies a high desert environment. The city was founded in 1706 by the Spanish as a colonial outpost in the New World. Today, Albuquerque is home to more than 530,000 people of more than 70 different ethnicities, including Native Americans, Latinos, and Anglos, making it the largest city in New Mexico. Albuquerque retains connections to the past and its culture in the architecture, artwork, and cuisine to be found throughout the city.
Albuquerque is known as a center of high-tech industry and research. The Sandia National Laboratory, General Electric, and Kirtland Air Force Base all call the city home. It's also the ballooning capital of the world. Albuquerque hosts the International Balloon Fiesta each October, an event that might be the most photographed in the world. Local hot air balloon companies offer rides to visitors year-round.
As a four-season city with 300 sunny days a year, Albuquerque has an active community of golfers, hikers, skiers, horseback riders, mountain bikers, and fishermen. The Sandia Mountains just to the east provide a high-altitude respite from the summer heat and many miles of forested trails, and a winter playground featuring Sandia Peak Ski Area. Any visit to Albuquerque is incomplete without a ride on the Sandia Peak Aerial Tramway, the longest tram in the world, ascending 2.7 miles from the outskirts of the city to the Sandia Mountains at 10,378 feet.
Whatever you do in the outdoors here, be sure to stay well-hydrated -- mild temperatures can be deceiving and the high elevation can take its toll on the fittest adventurers.
Native American theme and some good mountain views
Rooms feature the same contemporary Native American theme that marks the lobby. Framed photographs of Native Americans adorn the walls, while brightly patterned Southwestern carpeting and understated wood furniture add an earthy feel. All rooms have small balconies.
The colorful Spirit Wind's Cafe features New Mexican cuisine
Straddling I-25, the Nativo Lodge is a centrally located, mid-range hotel with an impressive display of unique Native American art in the lobby . Out back, there's a heated, half-indoor/half-outdoor pool and a teepee containing a hookah lounge. The lack of high-tech features like iPod docks and flat-screen TVs in the guest rooms means that nearby chain hotels such as the Staybridge Suites offer more amenities -- if less cultural interest -- at the same price point.

We are not super picky but our delivery did not look yummy.. We ate half of it and decided to toss the rest. Would not order again from that place.
Posted by hellskitchencook on 01/09/2013
we LOVE ChoChoSan. The sushi is great and they have a really nice selection of other Japanese dishes - everything we have ever tried was delicious. It's a great spot for dinner with friends if you want to chat (not loud) and they don't ever rush you! Try the new black sesame ice cream for dessert.

We followed the owner from Taste of Tokyo and it's the same great sushi in a less cramped environment. Love everyone there, the sushi chefs, the waiters-- they've worked together a long time and the food is fantastic. I don't know why the place isn't mobbed, it should be. They are also great to our kids who refuse to eat sushi anywhere else.Try it once and it will become your local place.
Posted by Rob from Manhattan on 12/18/2010
I just ate here again last night with my friend from out of town, who has me meet him at Cho Cho San every time he visits. I've eaten here easily 10+ times, not including when they were Taste of Toyko on 13th. BEST SPICY TUNA ROLL IN NYC. Hands down, no contest. It has extra tuna on top of the roll that is more tuna than a normal places spicy roll has, and no mayo. It's awesome. The all you can drink Sake for $10 is a steal and actually goes down smoothly. Service: It's excellent. They are really, really nice. Very attentive, and just genuinely kind people. Don't let the lack of crowd inside stop you. CHO CHO SAN IS GREAT.
Posted by the orchid on 04/24/2009
this used to be the old Taste of Tokyo - but new and improved! The back room is very nicely done and they have a few new dishes to compliment the former standout's notable "spicy tuna rolls". The Chef's Special, and the rolls such as Wall Street, Mexican, etc are all delicious. The sushi pieces are sized appropriately and for the price it's a great deal. Only challenge has been alerting former fans of its new location on 8th street, where it can get lost among the shoe stores and other random hole in the wall restaurants. Great for takeout or dine-in! This is our go-to sushi joint during the week when you have a craving but don't want to spend $$$$.

My wife and I eat here at least once if not twice a week. Always a great place to relax after a long day. Love the chefs specials. spicy tuna salad is kick a$$. Service is attentive and friendly with out being pushy. Fish is super fresh - I would put quality up there with Tomoe.

I've been a few times and its just great, but I've been surprised there weren't more diners there. I hope folks in the neighborhood wake up and support this place, its top notch

University of Tennessee at Chattanooga specialist Nick Pollard was recently named to the College Football Performance Awards (CFPA) Punter Watch List. It is the second year in a row he has made the preseason list.
"Congratulations to Nick Pollard on earning a spot on the CFPA Watch List," said CFPA Executive Director Brad Smith. "Pollard will be one of the top punters to watch this season."
Pollard has handled the kicking duties for the Mocs for the past three seasons and punted the last two. Last year, he averaged 40.7 yards-per-kick using an unorthodox, rugby method. His style results in a hard, rolling kick that is tough for opposing returners to handle.
This was most evident during the Wofford game when he set a school record with a 54.7 yard average on three punts. His career-long 78-yarder against the Terriers helped him earn Southern Conference Special Teams Player of the Week honors.
Earlier in the season, he pinned The Citadel inside its own six-yard line four consecutive times. Against Appalachian State, Pollard converted a fake punt with a 17-yard run and backed ASU inside its own 20 three times.
The goal of College Football Performance Awards is to provide the most scientifically rigorous conferments in college football. Recipients are selected exclusively based upon objective scientific rankings of the extent to which individual players increase the overall effectiveness of their teams. Twenty-eight CFPA winners have been NFL Draft first round selections.
Junior Jacob Huesman (QB), Keon Williams (RB), Faysal Shafaat (TE), and senior Davis Tull (DE) are the four other Mocs who have also earned spots on the CFPA Watch Lists heading into 2014.
The Mocs kick off the 2014 season on the road at Central Michigan on Thursday, Aug. 28. Chattanooga's first home game is set for Saturday, Sept. 6 against Jacksonville State. Season tickets are on sale now on GoMocs.com.

Little Eddie and the Fat Fingers
Feelin' the blues
Little Eddie got the blues for a nickel at a yard sale in southern Indiana. He bought a cassette tape with a Robert Johnson song on it.
"When I first heard it, it was so creepy," Little Eddie said. "It just latched onto me and it was like life started to make sense to me."
Big D was more methodical. The Chicago native back-tracked through rock-and-roll's family tree — from the Beatles to Chuck Berry to the beginning — the blues. "The further back I went, the better the music got," Big D said.
And New York-native Lips McGee caught the blues when he was 15. "I got mononucleosis and I said: 'Mom, get me an instrument. I'm gonna be home from school for a while.'"
So Little Eddie (who is also known as Ryan Bladen) snatched up the guitar, Big D (Andrew Galler) plopped himself behind a drum set and Lips McGee (Mark Ferris) blew on a harmonica. Two months ago, they got together and formed Little Eddie and the Fat Fingers; they've been playing at the Bayshore Coffee Company in Naples every Thursday night since.
Around 10 p.m., Little Eddie turns to his drummer and says in a calloused, Mason-Dixonesque accent: "It's all you, man." Big D set the pace, bobbing his head with each stroke. Little Eddie gives pause, then struts into the song on his Taylor guitar.
Lips McGee waits a couple of measures, brings his Hohner blues harp to his mouth and lets loose a howl that provokes a cheer from the toe-tapping crowd. As Little Eddie and the Fat Fingers gain momentum on Johnson's "Sweet Home Chicago," it's like you've crawled into their 1958 Gibson amplifier.
"I can't explain it," Little Eddie says. "It's a feeling, not just music. Every note, you want it to count. Every line, like it's my last. You get that 'ahhhhh'. It comes from somewhere else. I wish everyone could feel it."

Hillcats Sign First Men's Basketball Player
The Rogers State University Hillcat men's basketball program has signed its first player, point guard Maurice Rutherford of Broken Bow.
"Maurice shows tremendous leadership both on and off the floor, which is a vitally important attribute especially in the point guard position," said RSU men's basketball head coach and athletic director Wren Baker.
The 6-foot, 170-pound point guard was named MVP of the Southeast Six Conference during his senior season at Broken Bow High School, where he averaged 14.9 ppg and 6.8 apg for the class 4A school.
"Maurice has the unique ability to make everyone else on the floor better with his game and he matches up well against a variety of defenses," Baker said. "When I saw him play last year, you could tell that every defense was geared up to stop him, but they couldn't."
An All State Honorable Mention player during his senior year, Rutherford signed with the Hillcats during an event in Broken Bow. Attending the signing were his parents, Willis and Andrea Rutherford, and Broken Bow High School coach Gene Davis. Rutherford was originally a Tulsa native playing at Carver Middle School and Rogers High School, but moved to Broken Bow in the second semester of his freshman year.
Rutherford will redshirt during his freshman year at RSU to retain his four years of eligibility, Baker said.
RSU announced this spring that it would bring men's and women's basketball programs to campus for the 2007-08 season.
"Our plan is to sign four or five players this year and bring them on campus this fall so that they begin maturing both as players and as people," Baker said. Baker is continuing to identify high school and junior college players to complete his roster of 14 or 15 players when the inaugural season begins in fall 2007.
While Baker's recruiting for men's basketball players continues, he also is directing the search for the women's basketball head coach, which he hopes to have selected within the next few weeks.
Baker said he has been well received at schools throughout the area when he has gone on recruiting visits.
"Everywhere I have gone, students and coaches have heard about RSU and the great athletic programs that we're building here at the university, as well as the tremendous growth RSU is experiencing," he said. "I think that we have a very bright future ahead for us."

We couldn't drive through Oregon with stopping in the state's capitol -- so the Jimdo road trip team headed from Portland to Salem, where we spent a Monday morning.
In addition to visiting the SBDC and Chamber of Commerce (read more about those in the previous road trip blog post), we chatted with Tim Fahndrich of The Third River, a local Salem web design shop.
No trip through America would be complete without going to at least one McDonald's -- so here we are, enjoying fruit smoothies and ice cream sundaes.
Our road trip was a little spontaneous, so when we put out the call to users in northern California and Oregon along our planned route, we knew that many of them would be busy or have plans already. Lucky for us, Shaun Brady was back visiting his hometown Salem right when we were passing through! Shaun currently lives in Japan, where he's teaching English. He heard about Jimdo from Danny Choo, a popular Japanese expat culture blogger. When the time came to start his own website, Jimdo was there!
As we made our way back toward San Francisco, we decided to go to Chico again. Besides being a pretty cool city, we decided to accept Kent Hinesley's invitation to attend Chico's Internet Advertiser meetup. There was a great turnout -- about 20 people from all sorts of different backgrounds -- launching new businesses, SEO experts, social media specialists, and more. They were nice enough to let these out-of-towners spend 10 minutes demonstrating Jimdo. Guess what? They voted us the best tool of the meeting! We won a $20 gift certificate to Left Coast Pizza (where the meeting was being held), and we promptly spent that on pizza and beer ;-)
We couldn't leave Chico without saying hi to our new friends at Trails Ventures. We peeked into their office and got to see the new graffiti mural going up on a wall there. Watch out for the shark!
P.S. I promised Rick Hubbard I'd post his picture with Christian -- it's in the gallery above.

The Common Core Standards, the national academic standards for K-12 schools in the United States, have now been adopted by 47 of the 50 states in the U.S. This makes them the pre-eminent source of what is being taught in the vast majority of public schools in America.
Much has been made in the blogosphere and across social media of the changes compared to former academic standards that were dictated at a state level.
Reactions usually involve the added demand these standards place on text complexity and general rigor. Since they're only available for English-Language Arts and Math, it's difficult to get a full picture for how they will impact public education, but some inferences can be made based on the set of ELA standards.
Edudemic's focus is on the intersection of education and technology, and the Common Core certainly takes aim at in-depth student technology use. Four sample standards from elementary, middle, and high school English-Language Arts appear below.

U.S. Marshals have tracked down a former Western New York teacher more than a month after they say she cut off her ankle monitoring bracelet and left town.
Cara Dickey was on parole after admitting in 2009 to having an inappropriate relationship with a student in Buffalo. News10NBC reported last month that she cut off her monitoring bracelet.
Over the weekend, marshals tracked down Dickey and her girlfriend to a motel outside of Chicago. Dickey was arrested for prostitution last Wednesday in Illinois and investigators say she gave a fake name and ID at the time.
Police are hoping to bring both women back to New York by next week.

2014 Singarama hosts and hostesses ready to entertain...
Lipscomb's 51st edition of Singarama is in full swing, and the six hosts and hostesses are excited to share the hard work they have dedicated to the show.
Senior Lincoln Mick, sophomore Michael Oruma, junior Caitlin Phelps, senior Lacey Printz, junior Tyler Russell and junior McKenna Smith are the hosts and hostesses of the 2014 Singarama.
This year's theme is Singarama's On Fire.
The show will consist of three different smaller themes that will be broken up by performances from the hosts and hostesses who vary in Singarama experience.
Three have hosted the show before, and three are new to the hosting lineup. Smith and Oruma hosted last year, and Mick hosted his freshman year.
"I've wanted to do it for the past four years, but because of track, I haven't been able to because I've been competing, but since I'm injured, I have the opportunity to, and I'm just really excited about it," Printz said.
"This is my first year, also," Russell said. I saw the show last year and loved it.
"It just looked like so much fun, so I just thought I'd try out."
The hosts and hostesses' job is to entertain the audience and keep the flow of the show going.
"We kind of kick off the show, and then we help entertain the crowd in between social club shows," Russell said.
The group had been rehearsing at a recording studio away from campus, SIR Nashville.
"It's making it real being off-campus," Printz said."That's such a cool environment with so many people that are so passionate about music.
"It's all business, too. We have a great time, but we are there focusing and making progress."
Russell says he is the most excited about being able to perform in front of an audience.
"There's a really cool energy when you perform, and the audience is kind of giving you feedback after a lot of hard work," Russell said. "It's really cool to share it with them."
The group of hosts and hostesses vary not only in experience and age, but also in musical diversity.
Printz and Russell said that each artist's skill-set is different, ranging from folk and country to rap.
"It's a fun variety for people," Russell said. "Every type of person can be entertained."
Two of the hostesses are in social clubs. Smith is a member of Pi Delta, and Phelps is a member of Phi Sigma.
The remaining Singarama performances will take place, Friday at 7:30 p.m. and Saturday at 2 and 7:30 p.m.

Exceeding Abundantly Above All That We Ask
By Fern Horst
"Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen." (Ephesians 3:20-20)
Have you ever asked God for something, and then wondered if He would ever give it? What happens when you keep on praying, and find that prayer still unanswered? Does this doxology ring a little hollow in such cases?
Note that this verse does not say, "Now unto him that is able to do exactly what we ask or think". No, it says *above* all that we ask or think! We serve a God who is waiting and willing to do far more for us and through us than we could ever comprehend.
Sometimes our desires are rather small. We tend to desire and ask for specific earthly things which we think will bring us fulfillment and blessing, rather than allowing God to choose the avenues for His blessing and far more that which will further His Kingdom through us. As we submit to what He has to give us, His power is free to work in us, and to do "exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think". Many times He does not give us the particular avenue to His blessing which we have asked for, but if we are willing, He gives us a different avenue which brings far more blessing than we ever thought to ask for.
I had lunch today with a lovely 90-year-old lady who is a living testimony of these verses. Through years of faithful service to the Lord she has touched many, many lives, including my own. She admits that some of her normal human desires were not met, but that what God has given her has far exceeded those human desires. She begins the foreword of her book, written a year ago, with these words:
"Except for the grace of God, I could have lived a life of sin. My heart has all the capabilities of sin that anyone else's has, but that grace was and is sufficient to forgive and cover all shame and regrets. His grace has brought me a life of abounding joy and satisfaction. When I lie down at night, there is a singing in my heart and at times during the day when I have time to reflect, there are such surgings of joy that I can only praise Him.
"True, I didn't have a husband or children, but the Lord gave infinitely more than enough to compensate and I could not ask for more than He has given me. Not that I despise those things. I am human, and, I believe, a normal woman, but spiritual joys far surpass temporal ones."1

First, sorry to hear about what the incident you were involved in.
Second, is a handgun even an option? You mentioned CPD. If you are in Chicago, I am pretty sure you can't legally own a handgun. In that case, the shotgun is the way to go.
If the handgun is an option, I always recommend a nice full sized revolver for new shooters. They are very easy to keep ready for home defense. I like any of the Smith & Wesson K frames, and something like a model 10, which is .38 Special with fixed sights would be great. If you are not going to carry it, I suggest one with a four inch barrel. Get a good JHP like the Speer Gold Dot or Remington Golden Saber and you will be set up nicely.
If you really want a semi-auto, I like Glocks. They are very simple to use and easy to shoot well. I prefer the 9mm, again with a good JHP round.
Originally Posted by Ptarmigan

I believe you are correct, which is why I was asking which part of the state he lived in. Although the city was sued almost immediately following the outcome of the DC case, I believe Chicago is still fighting it, and I'm sure they will drag it on as long as possible. As far as I know, the Chicago ban and a couple of bans in the suburbs still remain in effect. Many of the suburbs immediately overturned their bans due to the lack of many to fight the lawsuits, but I'm pretty sure Chicago is still under a handgun ban.
As Ptarmigan said above, if this is the case, the shotgun is your only available option.
Also, do you even have a FOID card?
It sounds as if the lunatic won't be the type who is deterred, so I'd go for the shotgun first, on the assumption that he's going to require shooting if he shows up with bad intent. If you hear your front door being kicked in, hole up a "safe room" with the shotgun trained on the door and get 911 on the line.
Low-recoil ("tactical") buckshot loads offer relatively mild recoil and all the penetration you'll need on an unarmored opponent.
A pistol is still best for roving defense, and handy to have around if you can legally get one. Your idea of a layered defense is an excellent one, and you should absolutely pursue it no matter what gun you choose.

All opinions, particularly those involving politics and Glocks, are mine and not Galco's.
Good advice up there (as usual). Some other random thoughts.
If you live in an apartment or condo (or other dense housing) give some thought to what happens if a bullet goes through a wall. Even a humble 9mm will go through a bunch of layers of drywall (something like six or eight). Smaller shot (like #3 buckshot) will cause major damage without as much wall penetration.
My wife and I have a pistol, a shotgun and a .22 rifle. If I heard glass breaking I think she'd get the FNP 9, I'd get the shotgun, and we'd BOTH aim for the bedroom door. It wouldn't hurt to buy both.
Some glossary:
CCW - permit to carry a concealed weapon
JHP - jacketed hollow point round -- usually considered the best anti-personnel bullet
FMJ - full-metal jacket round -- usually cheaper and great for practice
frangible round - designed to break into pieces on impact. Sometimes used in apartment/condo settings to reduce shoot-through.
What a terrible story. I hope it has a happy ending.

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
Heather Dubrow's Age: How Old Is the Real Housewives of Orange County Star?
Of all the Real Housewives of Orange County cast members, past and present, Heather Dubrow holds the distinction of having been relatively famous before appearing on the reality show. As Heather Paige Kent, she maintained a successful acting career on TV before meeting husband Terry Dubrow and getting married.
We can hardly believe how much energy this former actress and mother of four musters sometimes. So just how old is Heather Dubrow?
Heather was born on January 5, 1969, making her 44 years old (or young, depending how you see it).
Growing up in New York, Heather Dubrow was raised in Chappaqua and attended college at Syracuse University, earning a BFA in musical theater in 1990. Shortly after graduating, she packed her bags for the West Coast to jump start her acting career. After earning bit parts on TV shows like Married With Children and Roseanne, she landed a supporting role in the series Life With Roger.
That got the ball rolling, and Heather later snagged other supporting gigs on shows like Jenny and Stark Raving Mad. She later starred in the 2000 sitcom That's Life as a New Jersey bartender who decides to ditch her engagement and go back to college instead.
Heather met Terry on a blind date, and the two married in 1999. They now have four kids together: 9 year-old twins Nicholas and Maximillia, 6-year-old Catarina, and 2-year-old Collette. She still acts from time to time, most recently appearing in episodes of Hot in Cleveland and Malibu Country.
With everything going on in her life, we're just thankful Heather can put quality time into Real Housewives of Orange County!

LOS ANGELES — Charlie Hunnam will likely have to bare all and engage in some very graphic sex scenes as the leading man in "50 Shades of Grey," but he says it's not a new dimension for him.
"You know what, I had such a baptism of fire with regards to sexuality on camera at the beginning of my career," explained Huunam. "I starred in the British channel Four miniseries 'Queer As Folk' where I played a young, gay character and there were some incredible, explicit sex scenes on that show. So I feel, and now I am 16 years older and more mature so I don't anticipate them being too much of a problem. It's like anything else, just an exciting challenge."
After months of speculation, the 33-year-old Hunnam was chosen to play Christian Grey and Dakota Johnson as Anastasia Steele, the main characters in the erotic, best-selling novel "50 Shades of Grey," by E. L. James. Hunnam talked about his hotly anticipated role on Saturday night as he attended the premiere of the sixth season of "Sons of Anarchy," on which he plays the character Jax.
One of the directors for the FX show revealed that Hunnam initially turned down the role of Grey.
"One week ago or two weeks ago, he was on my set when they came back to him and they wanted him to do it because he passed on it once, you know," Peter Weller said. "They came back to him and I said, 'Charlie, Charlie, Charlie, what do you think, this is too pulpy or something?' He said, 'Ah.' 'Well, let me give you the list of actors who did matinee idol style stuff, beginning with Cary Grant let's go there. If you don't do this, I'll burn your house down.' "
However, Hunnam, who also starred in this summer's robot-monster battle "Pacific Rim," said he wasn't hesitant to accept the role — rather, he just wasn't sure the timing was right.
"I just, there was a bit of a timing issue where I just wanted to insure that I was going to have enough time to really do the preparation so I can bring this guy to life and do him justice and when they decided to push the schedule to accommodate that then I was a no-brainer and I was in," he said.
While Hunnam is excited to play Grey, his girlfriend, Morgana McNelis, isn't particularly excited about him filming explicit love scenes with Johnson, the daughter of actors Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith.
"Of course, it's difficult being with an actor, you know?" said Hunnam. "She is required to share certain parts of me with the world that she wouldn't necessarily choose to do, but we have a great relationship and she loves me and wants to be with me and we've been together a long time now, and I think she understands and has come to terms with the fact that there are certain elements of me that she is going to have to share. This is an extreme example of that, but thankfully we do have seven and a half years of history together, so it won't be a big problem."
Directed by Sam Taylor-Johnson, the film is to be released next August.
Actor Charlie Hunnam arrives at the Season 6 premiere screening of "Sons of Anarchy" at the Dolby Theatre on Saturday in Los Angeles.×
