Interviewed by

Just so all the people reading this know, who are we talking to and what do you do in the band Paint By Numbers?
Adam: I play bass and drink.
Shawn: I play guitar, smoke cigarettes and drink.
Justin- vocals
Stewart: lead guitar
Nick: drums
[/b]So your debut album �Plastic� just came out a couple of days ago. How does it feel to finally have the record out?[/b]
Adam: A huge weight has been lifted off our shoulders. We have been milking a 3 song demo for over a year before Plastic came out. We are really excited to get out a promote it.
Stewart: relieved and good and excited
Where did you guys come up with the idea for the name and album artwork?
Justin: Years ago we adopted the band name as a fuck you, after a bad review in a zine called us paint by numbers pop punk. We decided to stick with the mock theme of being fake and generic for the album title.
What was the whole writing and recording process like for the band while writing this album?
Adam: We took about 3 months total with about 2 weeks of preproduction. It was recorded at a great studio in Portland called Dogfish (Fusion), along with some overdubbing and editing done at Kamp Grizzly. There are a few things we wanted to try but just ran out of time. We are all pretty happy with it.
Justin: Long and painful.
I don�t know if a lot of bands do this, but did you have kind of an idea of how you wanted the album to go or have any songs already written way before you went to record it?
Adam: First of all, things NEVER go as planned. I think we all an idea of how WE wanted it to go but sometimes plans get broken. Having said that we handled adversity well and came out with a great album.
Justin: With the exception of a few tweaks in the studio, all of the songs were written before recording
Stewart: yeah definitely, but thing always change when you go into studio
Who did you guys work with on the production of it?
Justin: Jake Portrait
What are some of your musical influences growing up and even when writing songs?
Adam: Trail of Dead, Ryan Adams, ATDI, Toto, the guy who wrote the theme song to "Taxi", Grand Funk Railroad, The Police, The Doors, Bread, Allman Bros., James Brown, Public Enemy, De La Soul, etc...
Justin: My musical influences are always changing. Lately I�ve been listening to the new coldplay album, sunny day real estate, whiskeytown and old country stuff.
Shawn: Yanni, John Tesh, and Jim Neighbors
Stewart: stp, nirvana, soundgarden, death cab, small brown bike
Where do you guys hope to see yourselves in 5 years?
Adam: Super rich and semi famous.
Justin: Alive
stewart: making enough off the music to constantly tour!
Shawn: Not drowning in a pool of my own vomit.
Whats your relationship like with your label Rise Records like and how did you guys meet them and get signed?
Adam: Our publicist Kaytea at XO Publicity had work quite a bit with Rise. She help seal the deal. We had been talking with them on and off for a year and finally 2 days before we were going into the studio to record our own record, Rise faxed over contracts.
I saw that the band is playing a few shows here and there in the next month, but can we plan to see any tours coming up in the coming months?
Adam: We are heading out in October with Still Life Projector (Rise), The Higher (Fiddler), and Nural (Hopeless) and we're stoked. That one will be mainly west coast. Then in November we will be heading out with Days Like These (Lobster) and Just Surrender. That one will be mainly east coast.
Do you ever find it hard leaving home when you guys go out on the road?
Adam: It gets tough trying to save enough money to have bills paid while your gone. Some of us have girlfriend as well which is always rough.
Justin: No
Stewart: no I miss the road
Any really memorable stories from shows or being on the road that you would like to share with us?
Adam: The day before we played the Knitting Factory in NY. Stewart got real drunk and handed out flyers to EVERYONE that came out of the subway. The next night we randomly heard these girls talking in the bathroom saying how some crazy drunk guy gave them a flyer and a hug the night before so they had to come see the show.
Justin: We were in Colorado Springs sleeping in the RV after a long night of drinking. I woke up to find some homeless chick sleeping inside. She woke up shortly after I did and went outside to smoke a cigarette. I knew that if anyone in the band actually allowed her to sleep inside, then it had to have been Stewart. I explained to his drunk ass that she could have robbed us fucking blind while we were passed out and he sent her on her way. Stew was grounded for the rest of the week.
Stewart: Being left at gas station twice for over an hour of yeah And I had no phone, no shoes no wallet
So, I am sure all the girls want to know If you guys wear boxers or briefs?
Adam: whitey tighties
Shawn: Leopard skin thongs
Justin: Neither
stewart: boxers that work, briefs when my pants are no tight and none if I have no clean clothes
If you guys could date any girl in the entire world, who would it be and why?
Adam: Shawn's girlfriend. Because he is my brother.
Justin: I don�t date
stewart: drew barrymore need I say why?
If you had to pick your favorite 5 albums of all time, what would they be?
Adam: I hate this question: ATDI - Relationship to Command, The Doors - Morrison Hotel, James Brown - Live Augusta, Georgia, Robert Thomas Velline - Nothin' Like A Sunny Day,
ZZ Top - DeGuello
Shawn: I refuse to answer this because if I do, I'll get pissed later because I'll think of something that I should have put on there instead of what I did. And then I won't stop thinking about it for weeks, more than likely years.
Justin: Wish by the Cure, The River Bed by Small Brown Bike, Wildflowers by Tom Petty, The Rising Tide by Sunny Day Real Estate, Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd.
Any albums that came out this last year that just really stuck out to you guys?
Adam: Ryan Adams & The Cardinals - Cold Roses
justin: Coldplay, X and Y
Shawn: Ryan Adams & The Cardinals - Cold Roses, Death Cab - Plans, Arcade Fire - Funeral
Well, that�s about all the questions I have for you guys, I just want to thank you again for taking the time to do this. Is there anything else you would like to say to all the readers and fans out there in absolutepunk.net land?
Adam: Thanks to you Brandon for hooking this up. Plastic is out now... go buy it.

Dentist, San Marcos CA
Check out William S Kachele Jr, DMD on Yelp
Dental Implant Dentist
If you are seeking one of the best, most qualified Implant Dentists to perform your tooth replacement, with nearly three decades of Dental Implant experience, Dr. Kachele and his highly-trained, professional staff are ready to provide top quality dental care.
Dental Implant Reviews
Dr. Kachele is trusted and admired by his patients and his peers; many of his patients are other dentists, or referrals from other Dentists. Dr. Kachele's commitment to ongoing training and education puts him at the cutting edge of implant and restorative dental techniques, technology and knowledge.
Cost of Dental Implants
When it comes to your oral health, your self-esteem, and your overall well-being we encourage you to investigate before you decide. When it comes to Dental Implants and Cosmetic Dentistry sometimes we get what we pay for, unlike buying paper-towels, or laundry detergent, where sometimes the "bargain brand" will do, making an investment in your-self should never be a sacrifice. Dr. Kachele does his best to keep the cost down, but chooses not to compromise care, and only uses the latest most advanced products available; nothing but the best products available today will do when treating his patients. If Dr. Kachele can save money for you he will, but only if and when it will not compromise results that both you and he will be happy with!
Dental Insurance Carriers We Accept
We accept all major forms of dental insurance, and many dental plans have an allowance for dental implants. The advantage of seeking treatment from Dr. Kachele is that our implants are dramatically less expensive than many other dental implant specialists. If you have a maximum benefit stated on your insurance you can get far more coverage for your money. We have even been able to save money for those who have been given a price from their HMO providers. Unfortunately we have found that many alternative "non-covered" procedures are masked by non-ADA procedure codes that have been added to HMO Treatment Plans in an effort to pad or inflate pricing. The American Dental Association has a list of all required and acceptable procedure codes for our procedures that are utilized by all Dentists here the United States. You would be amazed at some of the creative codes we have seen that enable some HMO providers the ability to charge for "non-covered" procedures! In many cases, their treatment plans cost more than an out of pocket procedure at our office.
Dental Implant Procedure
Dr. William Kachele continues to innovate when it comes to dental implants and cosmetic dentistry. Using medical grade titanium, small dental appliances and a technique perfected at his office, the team can rebuild your smile efficiently with no fuss in a very effectively time saving way, while saving cost and keeping down the number of visits. From initial consultation to the completion of your dentistry, you will appreciate that client comfort is of paramount importance to Dr. Kachele and his team. Using a revolutionary discovery by Professor Branemarke and cutting edge techniques perfected by Dr. Kachele, your dental implants will fuse to the bone and stay in place permanently.
Dental Implant Problems
Unfortunately, many problems with dental implants are caused by Dentists using Cheap Dental Implant products in an effort to lure Patients with Low Cost Dental Implants, a Dentists lack of experience in Restorative Dental Implant Procedures, and just plain greed! Dr. Kachele uses only proven dental technology and high quality materials to create superior dental crown & bridge restorations which keeps our patients smiling. Our patients are the backbone of our practice. Our success, as one of the premier Cosmetic Offices in America, is realized because we rely on the quality, and craftsmanship of American-Made restorations. We only work with the top dental labs and use only the best materials available in this great country of ours. As a Patriots, my staff and I love our country and are proud to say, "Made in the USA"!
Teeth in a Day – Same Day Dental Implants
Over the years, changes in dentistry have appeared to come slowly, with many practices unable or unwilling to stay abreast of important advances in technology. However, Dr. Kachele has devoted his career to integrating the latest, most innovative of these advances into his practice, setting a new standard in patient care. Our goal has always been to provide the most forward-thinking and luxurious restorative and cosmetic dentistry in Southern California.
The advances made in dentistry are astounding with the new technology allowing Dr. Kachele to do things that at one point couldn't even be imagined. Dr. Kachele is proud to offer procedures using only the latest in dental technology. He takes pride in offering patients the latest advances in dental care so that you get the smile you want in a way that is not only convenient and comfortable but also of the highest quality. "Our Mission to offer Quality You Can Afford"!
Meet Dr. Kachele
It has been my pleasure to serve others through providing Dental Care for over 30 years.
I have always made it my goal to provide my patients with a total commitment to achieving the smile they have always wanted. I talk with my patients about every concern they have because I truly care about their time with me. My staff and I make every effort to listen to them carefully so that we can make their visit as easy and as comfortable as I we can for them.
We all know the universal fear of going to the Dentist, and my staff and I never forget that you deserve to be treated with kindness, respect, honesty, and sincerely. If we have any issues, we want our patients to speak freely and openly so we can meet their needs and fulfill their desires. I want to give my patients the smile they have dreamed about, something they didn't think could be possible for them.

Tell Chase Bank: Don't Foreclose on Soldier's Father
20 year-old Aaron Collette is currently serving in Iraq and looking forward to seeing his family. He's been in the Army for a year and half, and recently survived an IED explosion next to his squad. Aaron could vacation anywhere in the world, but he simply wants to come home to Oregon and see his family.
Unfortunately, Aaron might not have a home to return to. His father will lose his home - and the place Aaron calls home when he's not at war - in August.
JPMorgan Chase is foreclosing on Tim Collete's home in Bend, Oregon on June 20th. Tim has asked the bank to hold on foreclosure proceedings until his son, Aaron, is able to return from Iraq for his two weeks of leave time. But so far, they've refused.
"I don't want him thinking about coming home and having it not be there. I just want him to come home and know he can be safe for 15 days," said Tim Collette.
Tim Collette's story is all too familiar. He was told by his bank that he'd only qualify for a loan modification if he missed two of his monthly payments. Once he did that (remember: per the bank's instructions), Chase attempted to foreclose on him. One financial blogger writes, "Like the nightmare scenarios we have heard about, they basically tortured him for a year and ended with turning down his modification request."
Update 6/24/2011: When Tim Collette's story initially broke, Chase responded to the media frenzy by telling reporters they would work with Tim to find a solution. Last week, they informed Tim that the foreclosure is back on. Tim and his family are now scheduled to be foreclosed on August 9th.

Reader Mail
Clintonian Reactors
Fresh takes on Bush sinking. Plus much else: Tel Aviv. Iraq. Dan Rather Redux. And lots more.
Re: The Prowler's That Sinking Feeling and Reader Mail's Crestfallen Conservatives:
"Clintonian respose"... Yeah, you wish he did half that well. Here's a news flash for all you neocons in the media: After we get the incompetent morons out of the White House, we're coming after you traitors next.
-- Wm "Cid" Newman
How extraordinary to describe the Bush debacle in New Orleans as being "Clintonian." This administration has been rife with incompetence and cronyism from the get-go. Why should it now seem like news that the brightest and best talents in government have quit because they felt their careers would be blighted to favor those with no talent but with connections?
This administration has turned the U.S. into a third-world nation. Our only real growth industry is personal debt -- which is then outsourced to China. In what manner is this conservative? And what will our awakening bring?
-- Stephen Temperley
The president should resign for the good of the country. Thank God he wasn't able to use his capital. Can you image how much damage he would have done then???
-- Diane Duffy-Patyjewicz
Okay, so everything is going to hell in a hand basket. Now what? How far did expounding this pessimism get you?
-- John Branca
I waited before I decided to reply to your "Bush is Dead" article to see what the reaction would be. I kind of figured TAS would be pilloried by the true conservatives and you were. You should be. True friends you are not. Like one respondent pointed out, you have been around doom and gloom politicians a little too much. Another one pointed out the "conservative" mentality of cut-and-run when times get rough. Why is it that the worst enemy most of us true conservatives have are people supposedly on our own side? I found this to be true in my own past political career. I spent more time watching my back among some of my "supporters" than fighting the liberals. Whenever victory was within reach, some weak-kneed fool would upset things. Now that Bush seems to be on the ropes, a few of his "loyal supporters" have decided the King is dead, joining the chorus calling for his head. One quote that hasn't been used yet is that famous one by Mark Twain about how his supposed demise had been highly exaggerated. The same is true about Bush and his agenda. Let me point out that Bush's agenda is a conservative one and will survive his presidency no matter what. He is not alone in pushing it and there are some very capable conservatives behind it. Maybe we won't get it this round but we will eventually push it through. That is because true conservatives (like their liberal brethren before them) have long-term plans and are not swayed by these short-term setbacks. No, neither Bush's agenda nor his presidency are dead. We have merely found out who the true believers are and who to keep an eye on.
-- Pete Chagnon
"Clintonian response"? Whoa, is that supposed to be a low blow to the Bush White House: to say their response to the Katrina disaster was "Clintonian"? Would that it were so! Can you seriously doubt that, if Katrina had hit while Clinton was President, then he would have been up for 48 straight hours, working the phones, getting things done? Not sitting around with his thumb in his bum waiting for his staff to recommend something? Get serious.
-- Steve Vinson
South Bend, Indiana
I agree. Bush has squandered whatever chance he had to make major changes in Social Security and national security. But I'm not sure what you mean by his "Clintonian response to Hurricane Katrina." James Lee Witt headed FEMA during Clinton's administration. FEMA was a quick and able responder. Now, because of this current administration's incompetence, FEMA is itself a disaster. I think you meant to say George Herbert Walker Bush's response to Hurricane Andrew, did you not? Just making sure.
-- Chris Woods
What has happened to the Grand Old Party? The party of Eisenhower and Rockefeller?
Given the dismal failures of the conservative agenda to beef up weapons spending, downsize social services spending, and neglect infrastructure maintenance in favor of fat, no-bid contracts to Bush campaign supporters (but otherwise under qualified) was highlighted by the way Bush's good friend, "Heck -of-a-Job" Brown did not perform as FEMA head nearly as well as he did for the Arabian Horse Assn (who gave him the boot), I cannot think of why anyone with an income of under $250k and wasn't heir to a fortune would vote for a GOP candidate again. Ever.
The master plan to replace competent second, third, and fourth tier government employees with party-loyal grads from no-name colleges where they majored in Bible study, was a loser that is going to take us years to recover from. The voters are meeting those badly trained people and are turning away, not from big government, but from the Republican Party. Without knowledgeable people in those support jobs, it is not going to be possible for high profile guys like Brown to succeed. Let's face it: every administration puts cronies and supporters to work after winning office, but in the past they could always look to the lower echelon employees to carry the load and make the guy at the top look good. Now we have bozos below and above and it doesn't take a liberal Democrat to see the screw-ups anymore, my friends.
Get ready for a huge swing to the dark side in voter preferences in '06 if we don't drop some of these dumb ideas quick. The far right had its chance and blew it. It's time to swing back to the middle or even the Rockefeller wing.
-- Steve Munzel
Are you crazy calling "the political and policy debacle that the White House created with it response to Katrina" as "Clintonian"? Pres. Clinton may not have got many things right but he did have FEMA running like a well oiled machine. Pres. Bush, with his political cronies and attitude that a non-responsive Federal Government is good government, screwed up the Katrina relief better than anything Pres. Clinton could have done. Stop being so partisan.
-- Eric Jochym
Bush response "Clintonian"? I am just curious to know why you describe the Bush White House's response to Katrina as "Clintonian." The way I see it, James Witt and FEMA performed magnificently well in responding to disasters, and had people in staff positions who were well experienced in disaster response. They weren't appointed merely on the basis of political connections or as paybacks for campaign work.
-- Larry Jordan
Panora, Iowa
R. Emmett Tyrrell, Jr. is the Prowler? He's supposed to be smart. He has the nerve to criticize CLINTON with this half-wit in office?
Where has he been during dumbo II's reign? How about the biggest spender? The biggest deficits? What's a little more on Katrina -- to save his political hide.
-- Mike Pupis
Newtown Square, Pennsylvania
If ONLY Bush had responded in a Clintonian manner, this fix we are in might not be so bad. The Rove Neo-Con brigade is an unmitigated American tragedy. We may never recover from the idiocy of the last five years and a media that has gone along with these fools as they destroyed America -- but if we do, it will take unending sacrifice -- a sacrifice that must be borne disproportionately by the rich.
The GOP has dug its own grave. The country is about to shove it in -- and it can't happen soon enough. I assure you that "grumbling" you hear on the right will become panic if Hurricane Rita hits Houston. If Rita veers, that panic will merely be delayed until home heating bills hit this winter.
Bush sold this country to the Chinese. Those of us who love America more than profits know this. As soon as the rest of the country realizes the evil disaster you and your ilk have visited on this great nation (Clinton helped spread the word yesterday) the W administration will disintegrate entirely.
We need leaders. The only viable leaders are on the left because the right sold its soul to a bunch of small-minded, depraved, moral hunchbacks. You have destroyed America's solvency. You have lost a war, a pointless war. You are responsible.
If conservatives are just now waking up to the train wreck that is George W. Bush it is only because you are fools and sycophants. The left will not lose America. We will beat you barbarians back and save the republic.
Shame on you, all of you. W as a lame duck is the very best thing that can happen to help us now.
-- John Smart
Los Angeles, California
"What happened was that some of the best people who were working in the Administration during the first term, but who weren't necessarily Bush campaign members or weren't particularly close to the White House, jumped when they saw opportunities being filled by under-qualified but more politically connected people"
Thank you for publishing this article. As a Republican since Reagan who voted for George W. Bush, I must admit I have lost faith in the man and his handlers. The man has not brought corporate efficiency to the office but instead has undermined the effectiveness of all components of government by handing every appointment and position to ineffective cronies or corporate lobbyists. He has gone way too far and is unbalancing this great nation.
I want a Republican government. Not a self-serving, fiscally irresponsible, party of insiders. I find no solace in the Democratic Party, but I am ashamed of what has become of the Republican Party and President Bush. It is time for Republicans who believe in what this party stands for, to break rank and restructure this Grand Ol' Party.
-- Byron Whipple
Dallas, Texas
"...Allowing the media and Democrats to paint the GOP into a corner."
The Democrats have been spineless for years now. Go read the Democrat boards and witness the agony of the rank and file over Dems' refusal to talk about what's being done to America.
Look at the board of directors of all the "liberal" media and you'll find interlocking Boards with the biggest weapons makers, chemical makers, drug makers, and bankers on the planet. Every one of them. And they've let your Cult of Delusional Millionaires get away with manifest deception, incompetence, corruption, and delusion, day after day, issue after issue.
Decide if your loyalty is to faction or country. If you choose country, you will then admit we've been witnessing the destruction of every single pillar of America's greatness under Holy King George.
No, it's inexorable reality that's painted Bush and Co. into a corner. It's not partisan to notice reality. It is partisan, and disastrous, to ignore it.
-- Jim P.
Re: P. David Hornik's A Tale of Two Cities
Your essay on the Tel Aviv-Jerusalem (easy, now) dialectic was thoughtful and very well articulated. It was subtle, too -- much better than it seems at first. I like it a lot.
I had the perhaps somewhat odd experience of becoming well-acquainted with Jerusalem and her post-1967 environs for some years before ever setting foot in Tel Aviv. Entering or leaving the country, it was always B-G Airport to Jerusalem, Jerusalem to B-G Airport, do not pass Tel Aviv, do not collect $200.
Boy, was I knocked for a loop the first time I rode into Tel Aviv, which must have been about 1972. I remember being stunned by what looked like third-world shanty towns along Derech Lod as it passed through what I later came to know (for I found my bride there, and resided there myself!) as Kfar Shalem and Shchunat Hatikvah. Then came Dizengoff, Bavli, and finally my destination, the lecture hall at the university in Ramat Aviv.
Holy cow! As the Texas Board of Tourism now proclaims about that state: "Like A Whole 'Nuther Country!"
Really nice job. I hope to see more of your work in the online (and paper!) TAS. The TAS folks are good peeps. I like 'em a whole lot, and I think the readership is very interested in getting more deeply into the Israeli experience behind the headlines.

Re: John Connly Walsh's Preparing for a Showdown:
-- Doug Santo
Pasadena, California
Great article. Every time I hear or read Tony Blair, I wish he was ours. When he retires, can we invite him to move to New Jersey and run for the Senate? He would have my vote.
-- Chris B.
My thanks to John Connly Walsh. I follow his work closely in your publication. He is both an insightful and good writer, and delivers accurate information concerning conditions in-country.
My information is very similar to his regarding the direction of Iraq and bears no true resemblance to the accounts found in the major media, including Fox News. My information has a military slant, however, and it is always nice to have another perspective to compare it to. His accounts of the feelings and objectives of the Iraqi people are especially enlightening. This is their country, after all, and will become what they wish it to be, not what we wish it to be.
Once again, thank you for the good work.
-- Michael Tobias
Ft. Lauderdale, Florida
Great article today from Mr. Walsh. I have been addicted to his postings on your site since his debut. He appears to be a straight shooter and is not afraid to describe the scene as he sees it -- even when what he sees is not good. So, it was great to read that he is seeing positive change in Iraq.
It is first-hand accounts like Mr. Walsh's that keep me in a positive mood and hopeful that we will win this war. I hope that he can continue to bring us good news in postings to come.
-- James Siegler
Re: Peter Hannaford's Do Justly, Love Mercy?
The actions of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) in the early 1970's resulted in my leaving the Presbyterian Church. This unelected body, then as now, decided to support the World Council of Churches' stand on an issue completely unrelated to religion, to contribute to the Angela Davis Defense Fund. I personally did not feel qualified to judge the innocence or guilt of Ms. Davis, but felt it inappropriate for any Christian church to support an avowed member of the Communist Party.
For those readers whose memory doesn't extend back that far, Angela Davis was on trial for advocating the overthrow of the U.S. government by violence. She was not convicted, and is currently a professor at the University of California, Berkeley. I haven't kept up with her position on issues, but suspect she is still well to the left of the average American on political issues.
It is disturbing to hear the Presbyterian General Assembly still governs the church as an unelected body.
It is gratifying to hear that "this week a delegation from eight Protestant denominations is in Israel at the invitation of a group of American Jewish organizations." Non-Evangelical Protestant churches have been bleeding membership for several decades. Maybe this meeting is a sign they are finally starting to 'get it.' One can only hope.
-- R. Goodson
Vero Beach, Florida
I am also a Presbyterian and have been disgusted with our national "leadership" for years. I know some of my weekly offerings do go to the Presbyterian hierarchy but I have completely stopped giving to any Presbyterian organization beyond my own church. This must be how a conservative member of the AFL-CIO feels about the political use of his union dues.
-- Chris Bramley
...Concerning the Presbyterian hierarchy... sorry but you can not find that form of church government in the New Testament. Each separate congregation of Christians had elders and deacons. That's all. If you had a problem with where the money was being directed, you could go immediately to the person responsible. That simple, that wise. What gives us the "right" to change what Jesus established?

Re: George Neumayr's I Am Somebody!:
I just wanted to thank you for, again, exposing the real Dan Rather. Now that I see him again after he was force to retire, he is completely insane. (He really works to hide it, too.) The man actually believes his own bull!
-- Joni Ramm
Los Angeles, California
No sooner had George Neumayr written his spot-on observations about what liberal MSM players Brokaw and Rather really mean when they sense a swinging of the political pendulum rightward, does Pinch Sulzberger provide the following ditty about the job cuts at the NY Times:
The Company plans to manage the staff reductions in such a way that we continue to provide our readers, users, listeners and viewers with journalism of the highest quality and that our operations function smoothly on a day-to-day basis. This will help ensure that we achieve our long-term strategic goals.
In other words, "I don't care how out of touch our left-wing point of view becomes -- we'll keep on firing staff to match our shrinking circulation before we'd ever admit that the 40-year old tenets of the Great Society were wrong."

If Ms. Nevins and Mr. Rather are bemoaning the fact that they now must verify and document their personal assertions and opinions, which up until now have passed as "news," and are defining that new necessity as "fear," they have truly missed the entry of journalism into the computer age. Just as the business world can now instantly ferret out information about potential customers and competitors, the reading public can instantly ferret out the facts supporting or demolishing any news story. Furthermore, that same reading public can comment on the story itself. This obviously upsets people such as Mr. Rather and Ms. Nevins. I wonder why access to information would upset people whose professed desire is to inform the public. If Ms. Nevins wants to do a documentary on evolution, I suggest that she do it on the evolution of news gathering and dissemination. Perhaps it is less controversial than Charles Darwin's work, but it certainly would be as interesting.

Thank you so much for a succinct statement of the liberal hegemony. My Dad always said "from a liberal the word equals the deed, from a conservative there must be proof of the deed, and that proof is defined by the liberal." For years I have watched (and read) the media. For example, though there exists empirical proof that President Reagan's economics did in fact "trickle down" the media says merely "there is no proof." One replies "there are studies!" The media responds "false studies!" and the debate ends.
American liberals have become mental automatons, unable to think critically or connect in any substantial way with reality. God help us if they gain control. I recall what a Nicaraguan friend told me about the difference between Somoza and the Sandinistas. "Somoza controlled what you said and did in public. The Sandinistas wanted to control that and also what you could think in private." Viva La Revolucion!

This was a good article by Mr. Neumayr. He all but said it: here's the great generation of liberal journalists, heroes all [to hear them tell it] going out on a lie and a whimper. And who among them is the only one actually ready to throw a punch? Friday, their gal. (Psst. Watch Hillary come out swinging, lefts and rights.)
-- Tim
I revised the last paragraph:
In short, the "climate of fear" consists in the fact that the liberal media's claim to non-partisan neutrality no longer serves as an impenetrable shield against critical examination of the media's own motives, agendas, and truthfulness. What James Kalb has called "The Tyranny of Liberalism" has begun -- but only begun -- to break down before our eyes. Yet there's not much comfort here for traditionalists, since, alongside the modest loss of liberal power, that which is called conservatism keeps moving to the left, and the net power of liberalism keeps increasing.

I see that recreant, Dan Rather, is riding to his own rescue one more time. I don't believe he ever got the proper help that time he was found wandering in a seedy part of town, muttering "What's the frequency, Kenneth?"
For those who want to understand this egomaniac fully, I suggest a book by respected news woman, Liz Trotta, years ago after she did "hard time" at CBS working for him, Fighting for Air.
As for Dan's tears on cue, he may just have rheumy eyes, a condition of the elderly. And Dan is elderly, you know. Rheum collects in the eyes of old folks and just spills over now and then. A kind of eye drooling.
Tom Brokaw is taking this "dying breed" a little far. I am surprised it has not occurred to him to label the BIG THREE "Band of Broadcast Brothers." My choice would have been the Three Muckateers. It is astonishing how much damage and loss of credibility they managed on the little actual "news" time (I've heard it was 17 minutes) they presided over.
But it's come to this -- there stands Rather, stripped of his royal raiment (not a pretty sight) mewling and puking over his ruined career. To paraphrase the old Nelson Eddy tear-jerker, here's my tribute:
"Sweetest little feller
Everybody knows
Don't know what to call him
But he's mighty lachrymose."
Now, would Dan Rather just get off the stage? Do we have to get the hook?
-- Diane S. Smith

Clueless. I think we now know what brought down the dinosaurs: no self-knowledge.
Dan was paid as an entertainer, not a newsman. A newsman might make $60,000 a year; Dan made $7 million per year. What did he think that was for? The best anchor award should be a straw hat and a cane (Brit Hume always excepted).
As you say, Dan longs for the good old days of monopoly -- no pesky questions from the peanut gallery. That "fear" that Dan detects is TRUTH knocking on the door.
Now we know that the MSM report the news as they think it should be; not as it is. The great mystery that has arisen is what was Vietnam really like?

Re: K.E. Grubbs, Jr.'s Memo to Dan:
Mr. Grubbs' article castigating Dan Rather is a prime example of sick yellow journalism. I hate to call it "journalism," but I'm too tired to try to think of anther word.

K.E. Grubbs, Jr. gave me a good laugh about Rather-gate. Thanks!
-- Anne Burkart
Great minds think alike, so it is with Messrs. Neumayr and Grubbs. I'd been thinking of a favorite English professor of mine, who some 30 years ago opined that the hallmark of great literature was its ability to withstand the passage of decades and epochs. So it is with Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy. Virgil and Dante descend into Hell to view God's unique "symbolic retributions" bestowed upon sinners for the excesses exhibited in their mortal lives. Fast forward to Dan Rather and his hubristic evocations on the golden era of electronic journalism, as he wanders liberal Hollywood and graduate schools searching for his lost innocence. This once great anchor was reduced to tears as he disingenuously warned of a chill wind blowing through corporate journalism today.
Not only was this an old canard but a plagiarized one at that. I recall the actor/activist Tim Robbins invoking the same imagery during the 2004 election. Robbins's version was better performed. The demise of Dan Rather is indeed epic. He honed his skills during the heady days of the great troika of Cronkite, Huntley/Brinkley, and Reasoner. This impenetrable wall of liberal news controlled American thought for decades. Their power was so great that Cronkite was able to pronounce the Vietnam Tet Offensive a failure, when militarily, it was a great success. He was able to turn a war-weary nation against the war and help sink the presidency of LBJ. It was also an era with genuine factions within the Democrat Party.
Nonetheless, liberal hegemony was safe. Rather had his own "Cronkite moment" when he took on Nixon in 1972. But one man's chill wind is another man's fresh breeze and great walls over time collapse. So it was that the late 80s came to pass as Ronald Reagan and Rush Limbaugh quaked the very epicenter of liberalism. Rather, his contemporaries, and the network suits never knew what hit them. Living in a decade of denial, Dan and company mingled in each other's networks and the safe cable stations to congratulate each other on their high-minded devotion to independent journalism. Fox was a cancer to be irradicated. Oh, but when Rather attempted his own version of an election hit piece, the ground beneath swallowed him whole. His "true" but unverifiable Guard story, complete with 3rd grade-quality fake memos, was surgically destroyed in moments by bloggers and Limbaugh. The entire liberal media establishment had been exposed for the frauds they are. "Tear Down This Wall, Dan."
So what of Dan Rather? He is left to scurry through the ruins of the once mighty liberal establishment, teary-eyed, and tormented by the harpies of the new media. As Virgil would say: Welcome to Hell.

Re: Jed Babbin's Reconstruction Redux:
President Bush's promise from Jackson Square that New Orleans will be rebuilt will encounter some hard realities. I haven't seen any pundits discuss the fact that the overall effort will be the largest and most contentious feat of social engineering the nation has ever tried. Cities such as San Francisco and Galveston were able to rebuild with private funding and local control because of their growing economies, and it took a long time. Other than the Port and tourism industries, New Orleans doesn't have much to bank on, and has a high number of poor people requiring additional help.
Of course, Congress must vote to provide the funds, tax incentives, and legal framework to spearhead the rebuilding; Mr. Bush can't just write the check. The constituencies of most members of Congress have housing, jobs, and other needs for poor people; how long will the Members be able to justify massive funding outside their own districts? $200 billion equates to a few hundred thousand dollars per displaced New Orleans family.
The timing of the rebuilding effort is already contentious between local and federal officials, and issues of overall control will take time to sort out. Even so: will the population be restricted until the levees are rebuilt to pre-Katrina levels? Will the city be rebuilt in contiguous sections, and will the lowest areas ever be rebuilt? What areas of the city will house the poor? Who will pay? Sorting out these and many other questions will involve many constituencies, and will take more time than envisioned.

Hats off, my man. Thank you for this article. And now, brace yourself. Put Vice President Dick Cheney in charge of the whole mess. And yes, most definitely Halliburton. If we are going to do this, let's close the borders and get to work. Put Americans to work. Thank the Brits and the Israelis for the generous donations of food, and throw the stinking Democrats out of the money-handling business. The mayor of New Orleans, and the Governor of Louisiana should take the same road as the Head of FEMA, and get out of town. The federal government needs not to reward poor performance with a blank check. I don't trust them with a cent.

Re: David Hogberg's Price Control Politics:
Apparently, there's something in the D.C. water supply which adversely affects the sense of humor. In his rumbling over Louise Slaughter's price-control plan, Mr. Hogberg concluded with this lamentation:
Two days earlier, Majority Leader Tom DeLay declared "ongoing victory" against government waste, suggesting that there was no fat left to trim in the federal budget. Thus, it's not hard to imagine a point in the future when price controls are included in the definition of Compassionate Conservatism, and a member of the House declares victory in the GOP war against deregulation.
Cannot Mr. Hogberg understand that the Majority Leader's tongue was spot-welded into his cheek when he made that pronouncement? It was intended as a challenge to his colleagues to identify fat in their own bills so that it could be excised. It's a literary device known as "irony." One might expect "a writer" to recognize it.

Re: Jay D. Homnick's In the Eye of the Storm:
While it is greatly appreciated that Mr. Homnick recognizes the efforts of the Coast Guard, it would behoove him to properly recognize the "men and women" of the Coast Guard. Instead, he only makes mention of the "boys" and the "fellows." In this day and age of reporting with tact, credibility, and complete facts, I would hope his future articles reflect the gender of both men and women of the Coast Guard who responded to the call of duty.

Re: Christopher Orlet's Alone Again, Of Course:
Mr. Orlet makes some interesting points, and I have no issue with the main thrust of his argument. He does, however, make at least one factual error that is common for many Americans. When he states, "America going it alone (with occasional support from the UK) has been the rule, not the exception for the past 60 years," he is ignoring history. During the Korean War we were supported by an alliance of numerous countries under the auspices of the UN. During Vietnam there were also numerous countries that stood with us, shedding blood alongside American soldiers. The Gulf War, Somalia, OEF and OIF all have seen numerous other countries supporting us. Mr. Orlet ascribes loyalty to only one country -- Great Britain. While it is true that they are a great ally, there is one country that has stood with us in every major conflict we've been involved with since World War I -- Australia.
Passioned arguments aside, it's vital to get the facts right. We are not as alone as we sometimes think.

1. Georgetown University mascot. The official explanation holds that there was a baseball team at Georgetown called the "Stonewalls". It is suggested that a student, applying Greek and Latin, dubbed the team the hoia saxa-- hoia is the Greek neuter plural for "what" or "what a", while saxa is the Latin neuter plural for "rock". Substituting a "y" for an "i"; "hoya saxa" literally means "what rocks". Now, a Hoya takes the form of a Bulldog, but students still cheer "Hoya Saxa" at games.

Space Debris Poses Brief Threat to Fincke, Crew
Cronin, Mike, Tribune-Review/Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
Emsworth native Mike Fincke and two fellow crew members aboard the International Space Station almost abandoned ship Thursday afternoon.
A piece of space debris came close enough to the station that the astronauts climbed into the escape capsule from 12:35 to 12:45 p.m., said Kyle Herring, a NASA spokesman in Houston.
The space junk measured 1/3 of an inch wide, Herring said, and is part of a motor once used to boost a satellite into higher orbit. The debris passed within three miles of the station, coming closest about 12:39 p.m., Herring said.
A collision could have wiped out the station's air pressure and killed Cmdr. Fincke, 41, an Air Force colonel, and the crew.
"We've done this before," Herring said about having the astronauts enter the Russian Soyuz escape capsule for safety reasons.
He said they did so as a precaution, but could not say the last time that space-station astronauts climbed into Soyuz because of danger.
Fincke's father, Ed Fincke, 66, of Emsworth said he wasn't "overly upset" about the incident after learning what happened.
"I'm an engineer. When equipment's coming your way, you step out of the way," said Fincke, field engineer for Michael Baker Corp. …

UA students back textbook tax waiver
Exemption could cut state revenues by $5 million
Published: Friday, February 29, 2008 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, February 28, 2008 at 11:53 p.m.
MONTGOMERY | Alabamas college students are joining their peers around the country in protesting sales taxes on expensive college textbooks.
For the past two years weve been trying to get sales tax eliminated on college textbooks because we consider a tax on textbooks to be a direct tax on education, said R.B. Walker, president of the University of Alabama Student Government Association.
Walker said students at Alabama pay as much as $900 a year for textbooks. Not all majors require textbooks thatcost that much but book purchases are a significant part of the cost of college.
The irony of the quest is that a sales tax holiday could decrease revenues to the Education Trust Fund by as much as $5 million a year. College students will be in Montgomery next week to lobby the Legislature for more money for higher education from the Education Trust Fund.
The $5 million potential loss doesnt include the hundreds of thousands of dollars a year in sales tax revenues for some cities and counties.
The most affected cities would be Tuscaloosa, Huntsville, Montgomery, Birmingham, and Mobile, where there are multiple four-year and two-year colleges and universities.
In Tuscaloosa, with Shelton State Community College, Stillman College and the University of Alabama, the annual tax revenue loss from about 40,000 students could total $765,000, Mayor Walt Maddox said.
The county commission and county schools would lose revenue, Maddox said. Considering its devastating impact to our schools, police department, fire and rescue and other essential city services, in its current form, it is hard to imagine a scenario where it would be acceptable.
Smaller cities such as Florence, Tuscumbia, Gadsden, Jacksonville, and Livingston also receive significant sales taxes from their two- or four-year school textbook sales.
Walker is unperturbed and sees the proposed cut as a positive thing. We see this as the same incentive as billions of dollars in steel mills as a statewide incentive for textbooks everywhere, Walker said.
Walker wants Alabama to join students in Texas, Utah and Nebraska who sought legislation waiving sales tax on textbooks.
The sponsors of sales tax waiver bills Sen. Roger Bedford, D-Russellville, and Sen. Phil Poole, D-Tuscaloosa both serve on the Senate Finance and Taxation Education Committee that reviews the education budget.
Tuition and textbooks, at some point theres a tipping point where its too much, said Poole. I dont know where that point is yet.
Bedford, who has a son attending college, said the legislation is very important for the student government associations. And he addressed concerns by the city of Tuscaloosa about the loss of tax revenue.
I think the University of Alabamas student population contributes heavily to the city of Tuscaloosa, said Bedford.
A third member of the Senate education money committee, Bobby Denton, D-Muscle Shoals, doesnt like the sales tax holiday bills. Its bad timing, said Denton.

An art work by an Enugu-based artist
By Kevin Ejiofor
The annual youth art empowerment project, Life In My City Art Festival (LIMCAF) has come to Lagos!
This is a giant step for the Enugu based project which aims to empower young artists pan Nigeria and which debuted at the Nike Lake Resort Hotel Enugu in October 2007. This then is the festival's first ever Lagos zone exhibition. It will hold at the National Museum of Unity Onikan, Lagos. Life In My City is supported by the Alliance Française Network in Nigeria, Diamond Bank and Access Bank. This Lagos exhibition is also supported by the National Commission for Museums and Monuments.
Simultaneously, similar exhibitions are taking place or have already taken place in other zones across the country including Ibadan, Kaduna, Abuja, Jos, Calabar Owerri, Port Harcourt, Auchi, Uyo and Enugu. Each exhibition represents the second stage at the level of the zone of a three stage process leading to the final stage which is the grand finale exhibition to be held in Enugu on Saturday October 12, 2013 featuring the best 100 new works, from all over Nigeria. Every year for the past six years it has been the biggest such art event anywhere in Nigeria.
At each stage selection is done by a committee of local jurors comprising seasoned older practising artistes and art teachers who pick the best entries for exhibition at that level. After the exhibition at the zone those works that are adjudged strongest are selected and sent to Enugu for the grand finale.
At that grand finale and award night the following prizes are on offer: One overall best art work wins a cash prize of N500,000. This is followed by the five category prizes where the best in sculpture, painting, graphics/textiles, photography, printing/mixed media/drawing which each win N250,000. Then there is the Justice Anthony Aniagolu prize for Originality which wins N100,000, the Art is Everywhere (recycled material) prize which wins N50,000 and the overall best entry from Enugu Zone prize for N50,000. In addition 19 runners up all win a consolation prize of N20,000 each. All twenty five young artists who win prizes are invited an sponsored to Enugu to witness the grand finale which includes the report of the grand finale jury.
This first LIMCAF Lagos exhibition is expected to be opened by renowned art scholar and teacher Professor Yusuf Grillo and will last for one week from Thursday August 15 to 22. It has been put together by a Local Organising Committee headed by the restless and prolific art critic and publisher, Dapo Adeniyi whose association with the festival goes back four years. Other members include Messrs Ato Arinze, Okechukwu Eze and Tope Olounfunmi working with the staff of Alliance Française, Lagos led by their Director and Director General of the Alliance Francaise network in Nigeria Madame Christine Deuve.
Speaking in Enugu after a recent Board Meeting the festival's Art Director, Mr. Ayo Adewunmi said that about 30 strong art pieces will be on show at this first Life In My City Lagos outing. All of them will be interpreting the theme for this year, 'Out of the Box, Out of the Frame'.
He further explains that Lagos had not been able to host a LIMCAF exhibition before now (even though the festival had always attracted participants from Lagos) because of logistic limitations in the Alliance Francaise centre there. Indeed its first ever grand finale exhibition in 2007 was won by Olumide …… then a student of Yaba Polytechnic.
At that time and up till this year, young artists in Lagos wishing to participate in the nationwide contest had to send their entries to Ibadan because the Alliance Francaise Lagos Centre had had some logistic limitations.
But the Lagos Centre of the Alliance Francaise Network in Nigeria has grown since then and has indeed become the coordinating centre for the network throughout Nigeria able to overcome the challenges which had earlier made unsuitable to handle such projects.
And so come Thursday August 12, at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the exhibition hall of the National Museum will witness a surge of young artists, scholars, art aficionados and teachers for a first hand view of productions by young artists in Lagos who are under 35 years of age.
Life In My City is a youth centred project. It aims to give young people opportunity not just to win cash prizes and certificates of participation at various levels but also to enable them expose their creative endeavours to critical appraisal by carefully chosen older jurors and visitors, sell their works, and make meaningful statements about their environment through the interrogation of various themes chosen by the organisers year after year.
The Festival is organised by a Board registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission as a trusteeship limited by guarantee. The Board is headed by a one-time Chairman of Union Bank Elder K, U. Kalu CON, who is currently the Executive Director of the well-known Consultancy firm, Skoup and Company, based in Enugu. Other members include Barrister Peter Eze, a well known legal practitioner in Enugu who was one time Chairman of the National Gallery of Art, and Chief Robert Oji who actually initiated the Festival project. Others are Kevin Ejiofor, Ayo Adewunmi the festival's Art Director, VinMartin Ilo, Uche Oji-Elega and Gerard Chouin.
Life In My City began as something of an experiment when in 2006, Robert Oji, founder and Chief Executive of the very prominent outdoor advertising agency, Rocana Nigeia Limited decided to find sustainable ways to challenge and encourage the very many young people who were studying art in the many tertiary institutions in and around Enugu where very few exhibitions were being held and outlets were limited except for the occasional opportunity at the Alliance Française centre.
He put together a two man team Esona Onuoha and Onyinye Igbo (one man and one woman really), who were then staff of Rocana and charged them to develop a proposal which could eventually attract support from other sources for a youth art competition to stimulate creativity in the visual arts.
The rest as the saying goes has become history principally through the initial support of Alliance Francaise headed in Enugu at the time by Dr. Gerard Chouin as well as two enthusiastic members of the local branch of the Pan African Circle of Artists in Enugu Messrs Ayo Adewunmi and Krisdz Ikwuemesi as Oji's Rocana Nigeria who with Oji's Rocana became the initial organising committee.
Today the festival has grown to include an international photo contest the Photo Africa competition and exhibition for young photographers under 35 years of age living and working in Africa. The first competition was held in 2012.

Blessings are uncountable, you need a lot appreciation so why do you leave it to discuss problems. Let your life be full of happiness, thanksgiving & praises. God promised He would never allow your problems to over you. Be sincere & be grateful. ~ Emmanuel Yeboah
One should always talk about blessings. Good and Bad, both are illusion. The one you believe in, will become reality. ~ Silver Lining
There is always a positive in the negative if you look for it. Happiness is our responsibility. ~ Heidi Pitts
Talking about problems and complains only increase the negative vibration. So see positive parts of life. ~ Sampa Das
If we focus on our blessings in life from our God, then we have no room to focus on the negative or be around people like that. We get what we give in life. ~ Jennifer Ritoli

It's been a long and crazy ride since this group was created. I have been working behind the scenes to keep the content flowing in this group even though I am no longer active on Deviantart. The main admin has been MIA for a while now, and also, we are no longer on good terms. I love this group and this pairing dearly, but it's time for me to part ways with the one final thing weighing on my consciousness.
Since I am a co-founder, I cannot delete the group. But I will be leaving, putting this group and all of its submissions into the void, unless the Admin decides to pick up where I left off (and she probably won't)
It's up to you if you want to stay or leave. I appreciate every one of you though for keeping this group alive.
And to the admin, what you did hurt me beyond repair, and I will never forgive you (nor will my mother, since you left without a single thank you) but it has made me stronger. Will I hold a grudge? yes, but at the same time I am glad to have someone who is sick enough to cut off all communications with me without explaining why, out of my life.
I will be leaving in a few hours. feel free to drop something in the comments section. Goodbye.

Try out the latest Garmin Edge
at the Wiggle Fallen Leaves MTB!
There probably isn't a better way to finish your 2014 MTB season than with this awesome event that incorporates some of the best the SouthDowns has to offer.
Based at Fontwell Park Race Course there is plenty of hard stand car parking and all the facilities riders may need,all with easy access from the A27.
The two routes(32 mile Epic, 22 mile Standard) have been selected with an eye on possible late season weather conditions..but don't worry...there are still more than enough epic climbs and sweet descents to be had as the compact course winds it's way around the South Downs.
Theres something for everyone here from SDW cruising to singletrack shredding to challenging climbing....its all great riding!
Back at the venue there is cake,refreshments and rewards to be had and a chance to reflect on another great ride!

A local institution since 1902, The Algonquin basks in its historic importance as a meeting place for the city's literati. For a decade following World War I, the hotel's restaurant was the site of the famed "round table" luncheons, during which celebrated writers Dorothy Parker, Alexander Woollcott, George Kaufman, Robert Benchley and Robert Sherwood held court, trading quips and barbs. Naturally, the hotel makes sure you can't go too far without being reminded of its Golden Age. Old Vanity Fair covers hang in the lobby; hallways are papered in New Yorker cartoons; and on each guest room door is a quote from one of its esteemed former guests like this one by Dorothy Parker: "You can lead a whore to culture, but you can't make her think." The overall décor tends towards dark wood furniture, heavy striped curtains, and a gold and crimson motif. Though generally small, rooms are appointed with modern conveniences. Perhaps The Algonquin's best feature is its low-lit lobby and bar, which feels like a throwback to an earlier era when illicit affairs and secret plots were hatched over highballs. (And who knows, maybe they still are.) Don't be alarmed if you spy a blue-eyed Ragdoll cat wandering the hotel lobby. That would just be Matilda, the latest in The Algonquin's tradition of resident felines.Extra
While the hotel continues to draw literary types, the biggest draw is the Oak Room, a cabaret club notable for launching the careers of Michael Feinstein and Harry Connick Jr.
There's never been more lodging here, and the rooms have never looked this good.

Some people are serious about keeping their stuff organized and others just aren�t. You�re the type of person who may look disorganized but really know where everything is at a moment�s notice. Let�s just say that there�s a method to your madness, and we totally respect that, which is why we offer the Money Penny Coin Holder. With our coin wallet, you stack up all of your junk and toss it in � no need to organize all of it! This coin purse wallet can hold 10 or more cards, cash, gum and more. You can even forego all of this and just use it as a simple change holder for days at the Laundromat or for all of those pesky parking meters you have to keep feeding. It also has a zippered pocket on the outside for gum, memory cards and more. This wallet coin purse also features a nifty key ring. And that�s not it! On the other side there�s a clear pocket where you can keep your ID with three more cards.

So compact, I put this on my Keychain....
April 16, 2015
I have been using this wallet for a few years now and I love it -- its the best wallet design I have ever used. I added, after purchase, a metal grommet to one of the lower corners, to which I attached my keyring, with the wallet on a detachable clip. My fear of "going skinny" was a fear of an increased possibly of losing my wallet (a problem I have gone through more than once, and would hate to endure again). With my keys firmly attached to the wallet, however, I can never unintentionally drive off without my wallet, and the keys act as a kind of jingling alarm bell when I accidentally drop my wallet, or alas, if a pickpocket ever tried to lift it. Also, when I get home now, I automatically stash my wallet with my keys -- no more need to hunt all over the place for a misplaced wallet just as I am trying to get out the door. The zippered side pocket (used for cash and coins and/or an emergency key) is also a perfect place to put my public-transportation "contactless smart card." It keeps it away from everything else in the wallet (The smart card never needs to be removed from the wallet when used -- just swipe your whole wallet by the reader -- and, despite claims to the contrary, the technology still seems to work best when the smart card is right next to the outer wall of any wallet rather than buried beneath other stuff). This placement of the smart card also provides a nice smooth and rigid plastic surface for any size bundle of folded cash to slide effortlessly in and out of the little pocket every time, without it ever snagging on the zipper or wallet material. My BigSkinny wallet has held up really well over the past few years of daily use even under the added punishment of always bashing around against my keys in my pocket. No tears, no worn/frayed cloth, no broken zippers or lost zipper pulls, and no split seams. There is one insignificant tear on the the finger hole of the clear plastic side-pouch which was intended to hold a picture ID. Also the clear plastic has also become quite "foggy" over time from friction against it and possibly age. Neither issue, however, affects its functionality or integrity of the pouch. I prefer to use this pouch for my most used CCs rather than for my ID, so the clear plastic likely gets a lot more wear and tear in my case. Over all, the wallet seems to be made of really rugged materials, despite being an "ultra-light" design, and I absolutely love how small it is (roughly the size of the CCs it contains). I could never go back to a bi- or tri- fold wallet again.
Merchant Response:Hi Scotty! Wow! Thank you for the awesome in-depth review! We will certainly take your advice into consideration. Have a great weekend! Big Skinny
Pros:super compact -- but has room for everything Great for the "stuff it all in one pouch" kind of person side zipper pouch perfect for "contactless smart card" (e.g. Clipper cards in SF bay area).
Cons:exterior key chain anchor point (i,e, grommet on a lower corner or on an added flap stiched into one of the side seams) would be nice addition

I graduated from the card holder to this one because I hated having loose change everywhere. It works very well. My only problem with it is that it came with an obnoxious chemical smell that permeates my purse and its contents. I have to take it out at night so it will dissipate. I've had it for a couple of weeks, and it is still there though not as strong. This is my fourth Skinny Minny (I bought one as a gift), and this is the first time I've detected this odor.

In 2014, the Intermountain Medical Group celebrated its 20th anniversary. Our Medical Group physicians and caregivers serve as the first point of contact for many patients, helping them stay as healthy as possible and obtain the most effective care. With more than 180 Intermountain Clinics and more than 1,400 physicians and advanced practice clinicians located throughout Utah, the Medical Group provides patients with primary care, specialty care, urgent care, and other services.
Our Medical Group provides highly coordinated care through a number of innovative programs and services, including the following:
MyHealth. Patients can access this interactive tool from their smartphones or other devices to see their latest lab results, exchange messages with physicians, request appointments, and more.
Shared Decision-Making. Medical Group clinics are using computer-based resources to help patients engage more effectively in decisions about their health and care.
Personalized Primary Care. At Intermountain Clinics, each patient is at the center of a wide range of services and a team of caregivers, including physicians, care managers, educators, and other clinical specialists. Clinics provide onsite blood draws, rapid test results, pharmacy services, and other conveniences.
InstaCare call-ahead. To cut wait times when seeking urgent care, patients can call ahead to Intermountain InstaCare clinics to get on the wait list and receive an approximate time when they'll be seen.
On-site workplace clinics. Patients can see Medical Group clinicians without leaving their workplaces through this program of on-site clinics arranged with participating employers.
Comprehensive Care Clinic. Some patients need extra help in accessing healthcare, especially if they have complex, chronic conditions and issues (such as barriers to travel) that complicate visits to the doctor. Intermountain offers a Comprehensive Care Clinic specially designed to address the needs of these patients.

How do I delete a large number of photos from my gallery?

I never even noticed that "Edit" button.
Like Ruth, I was deleting them one by one -- a painful task. I just took out 200 in a few minutes. Phew!
Now I can get on with filling it up again!
Thanks to you too, Ruth, for attempting to help and even if you couldn't, offering sympathy. But then, since you are named Ruth, I would not expect less! (And my name is supposed to mean "God;s Peace" but my mother tells me she knew, with sinking heart, within days after naming me that she had made a mistake!!! :))

This is the information age. There is more information about everything available in many formats than ever before in the history of mankind. This would seem to be a great thing. However, looking and retrieving needed information, reviews, reports and other papers actually involves going back and forth between multiple resources. Current estimates by X1.com, an information search company, estimate that the average business person will spend about 50% of their day simply looking up this wealth of information to serve their clients. Adding different media sources to this conglomeration results in a time consuming process. Seizing upon this problem, X1.com delivered its first desktop search software to the business community in 2003.
X1, named after the first jet to exceed the speed of sound, has developed a suite of software that simplifies searches to one screen. The desktop software automatically searches hundreds of sources through the internet. It can run on desk top computers, laptops, and touch pads. This program can search databases stored in the cloud as well. The latest update of the program will search files in Exchange or SharePoint formats, too. All the user has to do is go to the software opening page and input their topic. Numerous searches will appear on the right side of the page, one after the other. Yes, this is something like Google, but without the advertisements and pop culture references. Desktop Search is designed so that business people using this product are able to free up time to complete more sales and provide more support to the bottom line.
X1 sells this product for a reasonable fee and provides technical support to all companies using their product. When this product was released in 2003, X1.com received industry awards for best new software program. Due to the development of virtual computers and servers, X1 has modified its software to easily handle the virtual systems in the same way as other desktop systems. Each year, X1 modifies and develops its software to handle the latest changes in technology.
The user of X1's desktop search product is presented with a personal login and storage. The user is able to view a history of searches at his or her fingertips. Each search returns a list on the screen of results from the requested search. When the user decides to choose one of the result, the document opens up on the same screen for viewing. If the user is satisfied with his choice, he can move the document to its own screen for easier viewing. Emails and blogs are all available as search results. Our software readily sends emails and attachments; it works just as well for groups as for individual employees. It really is hard to remember what systems were used in the past once users learn X1's desktop search software.
All in all, there is only one issue I can find with X1's products. At this time, there is no version for Apple systems. X1's Search 8 only works on PC computers for now.
