Filthy Home: Pervy Wallpaper from Brooklyn
Store Profile
- Location: online only
- Website: filthyhome.myshopify.com
Store History
- Founded: 2011
- Founded by: Ryan Cox
- Headquarters: Brooklyn, NY
Inspired by raw, simple perspectives, Filthy Home resonates with vintage flare and modern sensuality. Capturing basic moments in life, both contemporary and historic, we value the unusual and sometimes unspoken familiarities that we all share in the overall experience of being human. Often fueled by those random explosions of creativity, embracing rather than avoiding traditional taboos, Filthy Home will rouse your senses. Go ahead…savor our specialties.
At first glance, these wallpaper patterns might seem tame, but they're filthier than you think. Wait until you read the pattern names…
Ryan Cox worked in licensing at Playboy before — according to his personal life story — he eventually turned 30, "finally recognized he was a grown up, moved into a one bedroom in Brooklyn by HIMSELF, and embraced his inner perv."
Putting his talents for stringing together dirty words to use, he started Filthy Home this year. His site includes a collection of matte vinyl wallpaper printed with non-solvent based inks, as well as artwork and accessories.
The wallpaper catalog entries are even filthier than the titles — they read like Penthouse pages, so don't click through unless you're prepared for some dirty descriptions.

Thomas Warren, wtop.com
WASHINGTON – Whether you buy a Christmas tree at the store, or cut one down yourself, keeping it healthy in your home during the holidays requires maintenance.
"You're going to cut about an inch off the stump, and you're going to immediately put into hot water, about 100-degree water," says Frank Gouin, horticulturist and former University of Maryland professor.
Gouin has grown, raised and maintained Christmas trees at his UpaKrik Farm in Deale, Md. for 18 years.
If a newly bought tree is not immediately brought inside to be set up, it's best to keep it outside, according to Gouin.
"That's because outside is cooler, and therefore it will lose less water," Gouin says.
Once the tree is brought inside, the key to the tree's longevity is a clean stand and clean water.
Gouin advises cutting the tree another inch before placing it in a stand, but he advises against feeding it aspirins.
"I've never saw a tree, and I've been working with trees for over 40 years, have a headache," Gouin says.
A material called Floralife, which is used to control bacteria in flowers, is another viable option to feed to the tree.
With the right treatment a tree could stay healthy another two weeks after Christmas.
Wreaths, Gouin says, should be placed in a tub of warm water, and left to sit overnight before being hung on the front door.

We often hear stories about overnight innovation successes. New apps like Draw Something. The Korean pop music hit Gangnam Style. Going back a few years, Silly Bandz.
But the hard truth about innovation is that it generally is not an overnight phenomenon. Try more like 2,000 days and nights, if we're talking about innovations that really move the needle for organizations and entire industries. So says Jerry Hage, co-director of the University of Maryland's Center for Innovation.
Hage argues companies should select four or five high-risk, high-payoff projects and stick with them for five to 10 years. "If you really want great breakthroughs, that's the only way you're going to get it," he says.
Precise formulas for innovative products and processes vary by industry sector, Hage says. But there's one thing he recommends CEOs across the board take pains to avoid—a penny-pinching mindset. In his view, investing in people—including spending on training—is vital to innovation.
"Stop emphasizing productivity and cost," says Hage, author of the 2011 book Restoring the Innovative Edge. "It leads you to think the best thing to do to reduce costs is to fire workers."
Is this a dated philosophy? One that harkens back to the 1940s and '50s when industrial giants could afford to spend millions on long-term projects, as AT&T did at its Bell Labs facility?
I don't think so. Or if it is an old formula, it deserves to be resurrected.
Sure, there are cases where companies or inventors can create a smash hit in virtually no time. And the pace of innovation has no doubt increased in recent decades thanks to better tools and improved communication. But in Hage's view, hard problems related to research and product development still take painstaking amounts of work. And time.
The history of the iPhone seems to be a perfect example. Apple introduced its revolutionary device in 2007. How long did it take to arrive at that novel user experience, including its touch controls, facility for surfing the Web and easy navigation? By one telling, 2½ years. But that time frame focuses just on the development of the iPhone proper. A deeper history shows Steve Jobs was thinking about mobile phones as early as 2002. Including touch-screen work that filtered into the iPhone and a partnership with Motorola that failed commercially but introduced Jobs and his crew to the world of mobile phone carriers, Apple's marvel was more like five years in the making.
So, yes, a new, lightweight Facebook app that your firm dashes off might get hot and boost your revenue for a quarter or two. But if you're talking about heavy-duty innovation that sustains your business for years, plan for the long-haul.
Innovation is really about delayed gratification.

Patriots collect win in MFC opener
Published: Thursday, March 7, 2013 at 6:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, March 7, 2013 at 12:54 a.m.
JACKSONVILLE — Ryan Smith's go-ahead RBI single in the top of the eighth inning snapped 6-all tie and started a six-run outburst in the frame, as the College of Central Florida baseball team won its Mid-Florida Conference opener 13-6 over FSC-Jacksonville on Wednesday afternoon.
The Patriots (18-9, 1-0), winners of five straight, sent 10 batters to the plate in the eighth and scored their six runs on five hits.
Aside from Smith's hit in the eighth, Jason Lombardozzi added a run-scoring single, while Sean Plunkett followed with a two-run double.
The Patriots got two more runs in the eighth on a two-run single by Darren Fischer.
CF, which led by as many as three runs before the Blue Wave battled back, had contributions throughout its lineup in the win.
Smith (1-for-4, RBI), Lombarozzi (2-for-5, two runs scored, RBI, double), Plunkett (1-for-2, run scored, two RBI, double), Fischer (1-for-4, run scored, two RBI), Mario Urdaneta (2-for-4, two runs scored, two RBI, double), Kevin Games (2-for-2, run scored, RBI), Enderson Velasquez (run scored), Robby Jolley (1-for-4, run scored, RBI), Collin Woody (1-for-4, run scored, RBI), Colby Wisdom (run scored), Josh Ellzey (run scored) and Brendan Collins (2-for-5, run scored, RBI) led the way for CF's offense.
Joe Marotta (4-1) went all nine innings and allowed five earned runs on nine hits. The sophomore walked one and struck out eight.

Long Island's own fighting Irishman
(Page 2 of 2)
Don't all come and thank me. Thank King for being a true leader and pressing the speaker to do what's right. After the constant pressure, Boehner was forced to act. Last Friday, the House passed a $9.7 billion bill to cover flood insurance claims. Boehner promised New York and New Jersey lawmakers that the rest of the $60 billion in aid would be voted on Jan. 15.
Still, 67 members did not support the bill, and many claimed that they refused to vote immediately on the larger bill because it was filled with pork amendments, such as $600 million for the EPA to support climate change issues, $348 million for the National Park Service to plant trees, and $150 million for Alaskan fisheries, all items that have nothing to do with Sandy relief.
This is no time for political games — the people need relief now.
Many of the members who voted no were from states that received billions of dollars in aid after Hurricane Katrina. Since when do we give geographic preference to those in need?
It has been over 2½ months since Sandy wreaked her havoc. Many of the people who were affected by the storm were average, working, middle-class families. These are people who wake up every morning, go to work and pay their taxes without complaining, and now they need help.
There's still a lot of work to be done on the final bill. Between now and Jan. 15, I hope the dissenters think long and hard about supporting their friends in the Northeast. As Peter King said, when these representatives are looking to raise money for their campaigns, they find New York very easily.
I feel confident that Congress will pass the bill for a full $60.4 billion in federal aid next week. I trust that King will lead the charge.

Responses to OTHELLO
From our Student Matinees:
I don't want my comments to seem hyperbolic—but my students and I feel that this was the richest literary experience we have ever had. Thanks to everyone for making this a wonderful experience for us. Most of my students had never seen a live production of a Shakespearean play. We sat for over two hours, and not a single student wiggled or slept or took their eyes off the actors. They loved the interactive nature of the show. Thanks to the actors for all their hard work and for making Othello come alive right before our very eyes. This was definitely a highlight for the 30 A.P English students' senior year—mine too!!
- Julia Goodwin, Bartlett HS
My students had an outstanding experience with Othello. I highly recommend Tennessee Shakespeare and it's educational experiences, and we will participate again. Really, I hate to "gush," but this was a most positive experience for us. It was orderly and very professional. We will work with Tennessee Shakespeare again!
- Shari Ray, St Mary's Episcopal School
This is the 2nd time I have taken students to experience the incredible performances of the TN Shakespeare Company. We saw Julius Caesar last year and the girls were wowed to say the least. The Othello performance was again an experience for them. The girls were on the edge of their seats. I think that I enjoyed watching the students as much as I enjoyed watching the performers. It is imperative that students are given good 1st experiences with Shakespeare. So much of the time they are turned off by having to "read only" the plays or they see less than stellar performances. My girls were entranced and delighted and asking for more. They want to see Romeo and Juliet under the stars and try a little of their own in next semester's advanced drama class. Thank you!
- Ann Lane Neal, Director of Theatre Arts, St. Agnes Academy
I truly want to thank the Tennessee Shakespeare Company for a marvelous experience that I will never forget. I had once heard of the Shakespeare piece, Othello, but never had I read it or seen it performed. I have been to many performances in my young lifetime, but I have never been to one that drew me in to the point where I felt that I was actually a part of what was going on, and never have my emotions flared up that high during a performance. Having the actors interact with the audience was also a new element for me, but it was also quite enjoyable. It was positively evident that the actors gave 100% throughout the entire performance. I would most definitely go to see another performance put on by the Tennessee Shakespeare Company.
From the very beginning of the performance, I was on the edge of my seat, anticipating what was to happen next. You can say that this level of excitement was brought on by the fact that I had never seen the play before, but any play, no matter how it was written, can either turn out to be a "snooze fest" or a "holding on to the end of your seat" kind of experience. The determining factor of the kind of experience you will have rests upon the open mind of the audience, and the commitment of the actors. Shakespearian plays are hard to interpret and, in the case of the actors, hard to perform. I feel that these actors did an outstanding job of performing the play to where the audience was able to follow along, while at the same time, not forgetting the play's origin and losing touch of the original idea created by Shakespeare.
The actor-audience relationship witnessed and experienced throughout the performance was truly the icing on the cake. You typically see performances done in that manner when the audience consists of younger children, not high school students. However in this case, I believe that the actor-audience interaction was more than appropriate. Had this style not been incorporated into the performance, a great deal of the audience would not have been able to grasp the concept of the play, nor have experienced that high level of enjoyment. After the performance was over, the actors and director answered a few of the audience members' questions. Although this can be done by many of theatre companies, each actor, and the director, had a warm and welcoming vibe to them.
The Tennessee Shakespeare Company did an outstanding job in producing Othello. Forever will I remember and be grateful for my experience. It shall be something that I cherish and take with me for the rest of my life. Overall, I would rate the entire ensemble, from the time I took my seat for the performance, until the time I returned to school, a perfect 10. I don't believe there could be any performing arts company that could satisfy my love for the arts any better than the Tennessee Shakespeare Company.
- Caitlyn Knot, 11th Grade, Middle College High
Beautifully acted and staged, my thanks to TSC for providing my students with a truly quality opportunity.
- Keith Salter, Collierville HS
First, please let me extend my greatest thanks to your company and cast for the amazing production today. My class (5th graders between the ages of 9 to 10), my parent chaperones, and I enjoyed every aspect of the performance. Thank you again for one of the best field trip experiences my students have had.
- Christa Fitzgibbon, CLUE Teacher, Willow Oaks Elementary
It was a wonderful production, and my students couldn't stop talking about it on the way to lunch, at lunch, and even on the way back to school. Ah, the beauty and relevance of Shakespeare! Thanks again for the actors who came early to work with my class and for the excellent and affordable production!
Thank you so much for the experience. We loved the play, and many of my students, who had expressed trepidation in understanding Shakespeare, were surprised to find that they not only understood but also enjoyed the play. I can't wait for the next opportunity! Romeo and Juliet in the garden - I'm there!
- Janelle Phipps, Harding Academy
Thank you for another great show. The actors did a marvelous job and we appreciate what TSC adds to our community!
- Barry Gilmore, Hutchison School
You always impress us you're your professionalism and quality of performance!!!! Please keep inviting us to participate!
- Jenny Hall, Millington CHS
We loved the show and the students who got to come are ready to start reading it in class. It was a great performance!!!

Responses to JULIUS CAESAR
From our Adult Audiences:
"Casts new light on this familiar tale. It is fresh and innovative without being contrived, and those who think they know the play will come away having experienced something compellingly different. First-rate acting, music, and dance combine for a must-see evening of theater."
- John Reed
"I thoroughly enjoyed the production. It kept my mind sharp following one person in more than one role, and I enjoyed that. JULIUS CAESAR is not to be missed."
- Andrew Pouncey, Assistant City Administrator, City of Germantown
"I was absolutely mesmerized, beginning with the cast introductions that went into a tableau – the technique suggested to me this was not going to be the same old same old. The all-woman cast and the accompanying revision of text was . . . how might I say…mind-blowing. Extremely cool and very exciting. The choreography was a phenomenal addition. The death scene was a ritual art and not murder. The acting was superb. In sum, you now have a loyal follower of Tennessee Shakespeare Company. Thanks very much for your excellent performance."
- Robert P. Connolly, PhD, Director, C.H. Nash Museum at Chucalissa
"This is by far my favorite of your three productions--the environment was perfect and I love it when the cast is always hanging around on stage, switching parts with small costume adjustments. Of course the cast was amazing and the cellist (Iren Zombor) exquisite. Congratulations!"
- Jonathan RA Devin, Freelance writer
"A virtually perfect time at the theatre! The phenomenal cast and director captured every nuance of the language, and the movement stunningly enriched the language and the classic story! What a treasure to witness an ensemble fulfill all the promise and expectations of a professional performance!"
- Billy Pullen, English Teacher, Germantown High School
From the Teachers:
"Tennessee Shakespeare Company's student matinee series is an incredibly enriching experience for students of all ages and disciplines. TSC's innovative staging and interpretation reawakens a classical text for a contemporary audience without ever diminishing the importance of the language. What was planned to be a ten-minute wrap-up session in my classroom following the performance evolved into an hour-long discussion focusing on the play's themes, the various production elements, the director's vision, use of movement and choreography, and so much more. Each student contributed to this vibrant and thoughtful discussion with such enthusiasm and energy. It was one of those moments you long for as a teacher: passionate discussion and debate employing all of the analytical and performance skills we have developed throughout the year."
- Scott Duff, Director of Theatre Arts, St. George's Independent School
"The experience could not have been better, especially being the only girls in an audience full of MUS boys. The different reaction (boys/girls) was of great interest to me as an educator. The St. Agnes girls thoroughly enjoyed the experience and wanted to talk immediately about how their attitudes toward these characters changed drastically because their words were spoken by women. Thank you for the experience."
- Ann Neal, Director of Theatre Arts, St. Agnes Academy
"The kids had a blast! They were talking about it today. They were amazed at how easily they understood Shakespeare's language and how clearly you all portrayed your roles."
- Joan Laney, English Teacher, Memphis-Central High School
"This was a wonderful production and a great opportunity for the students. Thank you for providing such a wonderful learning experience. All teachers involved enjoyed it as well, and we plan on definitely attending future productions and instilling a love of Shakespeare and interest in drama/acting in even more students."
- Chris Hudson, 10th grade English Teacher, Arlington High School
"One student I spoke to this morning described how much clearer the story was to him now than it was when he read it in class."
- Ted Horrell, Principal, Millington Central High School
"The students felt a part of the production!"

___Responses to Previous TSC Productions___
I wish to congratulate the newly formed Tennessee Shakespeare Company for their splendid inaugural season. I teach at Cordova Middle School where I have always included Shakespeare in my Language Arts Classes, bemoaning the absence of live performances to show students. As the new Drama/Creative Writing teacher at my school I found out early about Dan McCleary and his artistic aspirations, and we were one of the first schools to sign up for a field trip. The TSC not only engaged my disparate group of 6th, 7th and 8th graders, they enchanted most and enthralled a few, which is saying a lot.
This is the best thing to happen to the local arts scene in recent memory. I will be taking as many kids as I can to this top-notch production company's future efforts.
Thanks to all the sponsors and support groups who made this possible.

Tennessee Shakespeare Company
Announces Eighth Season of Plays and Education Programs:
Celebration 400
(Memphis, TN, September 1, 2015) – Tennessee Shakespeare Company (TSC), the Mid-South's professional classical theatre, today announced its 2015-16 performance season, which commemorates the 400th anniversary of William Shakespeare's death with a celebration of plays, readings, salons, feasts, and extensive programming for children.
TSC continues its cultural/educational partnerships with the University of Memphis' Department of Theatre & Dance and with Dixon Gallery & Gardens. Full productions of Shakespeare's All's Well That Ends Well (Dixon) and Henry V (UofM) will feature professional, AEA casts from around the country and Memphis.
The Company also partners with the Memphis Hunt & Polo Club to feature three weeks of feasts and two-hour readings of Shakespeare plays that TSC has not yet produced. The Southern Literary Salons continue in September with a focus on Harper Lee, and in February spotlighting Ernest Hemingway in Key West. The Seventh Annual Shakespeare Gala at Germantown Performing Arts Center moves to April to commemorate Celebration 400 during the month of the 400th anniversary.
Running concurrently with the performance season are the expanded offerings of TSC's Education and Outreach Department. These include a newly-authored schools show touring the southeastern U.S., student matinees, playshops and residencies, expanded Summer camps, and the recently-trademarked Romeo and Juliet Project™ literacy/non-violence residency.Read More

Featuring Broadway's Brightest Stars
Memphis, TN (July 27, 2015) – Tennessee Shakespeare Company, in partnership with the University of Memphis' Department of Theatre & Dance, presents its third and final developing musical reading on the U of M mainstage with The Oliver Experiment by Jeremy Desmon and Jeff Thomson on August 15 at 7:00 pm.Read More
Midsummer Night
Live music, glow sticks, and power chords!
Featuring Broadway's Katrina Lenk and Eric B. Anthony
Memphis, TN (June 15, 2015) – Tennessee Shakespeare Company, in partnership with the University of Memphis' Department of Theatre & Dance, presents its second developing musical reading on the U of M mainstage with Midsummer Night by Valerie Vigoda and Brendan Milburn on June 27 at 7:00 pm.
Tickets for the reading are just $15, or $10 for Students and Seniors.
Midsummer Night, directed by Janet Roston, is the second of three developing musicals in TSC's inaugural Showplace Memphis: Musical Works in Progress.
Broadway's Katrina Lenk and Eric B. Anthony
Sponsored by one of Broadway's elite musical licensing companies, Theatrical Rights Worldwide (TRW) and President/CEO Steve Spiegel, based in New York City, Showplace Memphis has been devised as the next creative stage for three musicals en route to full productions in New York and on the regional theatre circuit across the U.S. The first musical in Showplace Memphis last month was a very successful reading of Tenderly: The Rosemary Clooney Musical. The final musical will be a charming and surprising new piece, The Oliver Experiment (August 15).
TRW has selected the musicals, and the Actors' Equity casts and directors are coming from all around the country and Memphis.
The cast includes Broadway's Katrina Lenk (Once; Spiderman: Turn Off the Dark; The Miracle Worker) as Titania and Eric B. Anthony (The Lion King; Hairspray; Mary Poppins) as Puck.
Songwriters Brendan Milburn and Valerie Vigoda join with co-creator/director Janet Roston (Artistic Director of The Los Angeles Rock Opera Company) for this new take on William Shakespeare's beloved comedy A Midsummer Night's Dream. The musical is set within a modern-day rock festival. It's a rollicking collision of rock music, iambic pentameter, and hipsters – where rock stars Titania and Oberon quarrel, festival assistant Puck creates havoc, and roadie Bottom gets a chance to shine.
Keyboardist Milburn and electric violinist Vigoda have been singing and writing songs together for over 20 years, first for their band GrooveLily, and more recently for musical theatre and film. Theatre: Striking Twelve, Sleeping Beauty Wakes, Beautiful Poison, Wheelhouse, Toy Story: The Musical, Long Short Story, A Midsummer Night's Dream, its complete reworking as the rock musical Midsummer Night, and Ernest Shackleton Loves Me. Film: many songs for Tinker Bell for Disney animated movies. Additional music is provided by Gene Lewin.
The Midsummer Night creators and cast will collaborate and rehearse at the U of M for ten days leading up to its reading. Though it will be going through both script and music changes, Midsummer Night will be played and sung in its entirety and with musical accompaniment on the U of M's mainstage. No other design elements (scenic/costumes/lights) will be integrated.
Audiences will have an opportunity to speak with the actors and creators of Midsummer Night immediately following its reading. Audiences also will inform the production by completing an audience survey that will help the creative team in future development phases.Read More
Memphis Mayor AC Wharton, Jr. to Visit Tennessee Shakespeare Company's Romeo and Juliet Project in Action at East High School Monday, March 23
March 17, 2015 – Memphis Mayor AC Wharton, Jr. announced today he will observe first-hand Tennessee Shakespeare Company teaching and playing its Romeo and Juliet Project with 100 ninth graders in four simultaneous sessions at East High School on Monday, March 23 at 9:00 am.
"On behalf of TSC and our Board of Directors, I am so proud and honored to have Mayor Wharton joining our teachers in the classroom," said Project creator and TSC Education Director Stephanie Shine. "It was at the Mayor's urging we created this Project, and I am excited for him to see his challenge come to positive life."
Tennessee Shakespeare Company began its nationally-recognized, four-part performance and in-school residency in the Memphis area in January. The Project, now in its fourth year, brings a cast of eight professional actor-teachers into each Language Arts classroom at a participating school. Students are guided by the actors to live the play's urgent tragedy of young love amidst rage, experiencing its relevant story while ensuring that participating freshmen have a first exposure to Shakespeare that is active, rich, and rewarding.
As the teenagers in the play face armed violence, students discover positive actions available to them in their own lives in the face of real conflict. Student post-Project assessments have recorded a 20% increase in students' compassion as a result of their inclusion in The Romeo and Juliet Project, as well as a full letter grade increase, on average, in Language Arts classes.
The Residency concludes with an intimate performance by the actor-teachers of Romeo and Juliet, which encourages student participation.
By the end of March, The Romeo and Juliet Project will have performed the play 44 times in 27 Memphis area schools, and will have taught the Residency in 342 classroom visits in 11 schools. At least 4,360 high school Freshmen will be reached and positively affected by The Romeo and Juliet Project. That figure represents 34% of all freshmen in the Shelby County Schools system.
Tennessee Shakespeare Company is generously supported by:
Season Sponsors:
Arts Memphis, Barbara B. Apperson Angel Fund, Nancy Copp, FedEx Corporation, Independent Bank, International Paper, Rose M. Johnston, Ernest and Pat Kelly, Jr., Milton T. Schaeffer, Margaret and Owen Tabor, Ann and Wellford Tabor, Tennessee Arts Commission, and The University of Memphis.

|Big blizzard leaves town dreaming of a white Christmas
|Written by Holyoke Enterprise
Holyoke received 3.4 inches of snow last Wednesday, Dec. 19 as a strong winter storm blasted the area. Thursday morning, Dec. 20, the snow blowers were out in full force clearing paths through drifts of snow. Strong winds created drifts all over town making travel tough.
The blizzard-like conditions forced administrators in the Holyoke School District to send students home early Wednesday morning. Above, this group of students was bundled up as they made their way back to school Thursday morning.
The Goldenstein family, below, took advantage of the big snow when they built this larger-than-life snowman Saturday, Dec. 22. Family members are pictured from left, Alan, Sydney, Melissa, Luke, Adison, Cooper, Jaydin, Emy (in front), Bryton, Deanna, Kelyn and Clint.
The snow kept falling Monday and Tuesday, Dec. 24 and 25, giving Holyoke an iconic white Christmas. Weather reports gave the area another 2-3 inches over the holiday, and although the white snowfall made for a pretty scene, temps were not so pretty with a high of 12 degrees and low temps reaching -11 on Christmas Day.

Hurry up and wait
Campaign 2008 | That's the story of the presidential campaign: two frenetic months from Iowa in January to Texas, Ohio, and others in March. Now a long pause until the Pennsylvania primary April 22. What is campaign '08 revealing about American culture?
In the eye of the electoral hurricane, Democrats are dividing into math vs. momentum determinists: "Barack Obama has a majority of elected delegates." "Hillary Clinton has momentum and will win the super delegates." "Wyoming and Mississippi results gave the momentum back to Obama." "Did not." "Did so."
Putative GOP nominee John McCain also has to wait, but he can seize the spring to improve relations with conservative evangelicals and movement pros before swinging to the center in a general campaign. Like the two Democratic front-runners, he so far has run a personality-driven campaign, with no concept such as 2000's "compassionate conservatism" coming to the fore.
That sloganeering vacuum means that GOP gurus now have the opportunity to stand back and ask some basic questions: What, if anything, is the 2008 campaign revealing about American culture? Great political movements always have cultural and philosophical roots that go deeper than month-to-month politics: What are the beliefs and ideals that move Americans in 2008?
Let's try four Rs: restless, religious, reality-based, rambunctious. Alexis de Tocqueville in the 1830s classic Democracy in America wrote that Americans tend to be restless and religious, and in the 21st century that is still the case. Some Americans are chanting political mantras this year, but past elections suggest that most at some point will come to reality-based conclusions. Many journalists similarly fall into propaganda, but increased media diversity in recent years means that they can and will be shamed into rambunctious reporting.
De Tocqueville wrote, "In the United States, a man will carefully construct a home in which to spend his old age and sell it before the roof is on. . . . He will settle in one place only to go off elsewhere. . . . If his private business gives him some time for leisure he will immediately plunge into the whirlwind of politics."
Many presidential candidates have been rooted. We think of George Washington from Virginia and John Adams from Massachusetts. Even in 2004 the race was between New Englander John Kerry and George W. Bush, a proud Texan who talks like one and emphasizes his years in Midland public schools rather than his Ivy League higher education.
This year, though, restlessness has started at the top. John McCain is from everywhere and nowhere: Born in the Canal Zone, he moved frequently with his military family and during his own military career. As analyst Michael Barone notes, McCain when elected to Congress to represent Arizona had spent far more time in a Hanoi prison than in his new home state.
Obama and Clinton have Illinois in common, but Clinton headed east as soon as she could and had a marriage-required sojourn in Arkansas. Hawaii, California, and the state of Harvard all have claims to Obama's consciousness. But the unrootedness is far more than geographic, especially in Obama's case where such transcendence is a campaign centerpiece: He says "the choice in this election is not between regions or religions or genders. It's not about rich versus poor; young versus old; and it is not about black versus white. It's about the past versus the future."
This strikes a powerful chord in America, where many among the young want to be adults before they're ready to be, many among the old want to be young, and most of us don't know much about history. Obama transcends racial divisions, Clinton breaks the glass ceiling for women. McCain's restlessness frustrates traditional conservatives. All three of the biographies tap into what Christian witness brings out: "neither Jew nor Greek, neither slave nor free, neither male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus." Apart from Christ we're not really changed, but we want to be: e pluribus unum.
And the restlessness is deeper than that. Obama is the leading crier for "change"-he used the word 33 times in a speech last month after winning the Wisconsin primary-but all three candidates have turned the six-letter word into an applause line. That's strange: Why, when America is the most affluent society in history, is "change" a plus-especially since one possible change in the next decade is a U.S. city destroyed by a terrorist's nuclear weapon?
Beatles and Christians can answer that question by noting that money can't buy you love. The "change" mantra taps into a sense of alienation, a recognition that we are wanderers. It suggests that politics, if we choose the right change agent, can do what only God can do.
All the candidates this year have spoken of their religious beliefs, yet as de Tocqueville described Americans in the 1830s, "It is often hard to know from listening to them whether the main intention of religion is to obtain everlasting joy in the next world or prosperity in this." Or votes.
Journalists wrote and spoke the most about Mike Huckabee's beliefs: A Lexis-Nexis search shows "Huckabee" and "religious right" appearing 893 times during the three months before the Texas and Ohio primaries. Religious liberal Obama, though, typically avoided such characterization: His name and "religious left" appeared together only 28 times during that period.
Huckabee received press criticism for an Iowa ad that called him a "Christian leader," but few fussed about a South Carolina brochure that praised Obama as a "committed Christian" who is "called to Christ."
Obama has benefited from messianic hopes and has indulged them by (among other things) saying that he and his supporters can become "a hymn that will heal this nation, repair this world, and make this time different than all the rest." But he should not be ridiculed as lightweight because some of his fans swoon in the aisles as if they were slain in the spirit: He is delivering the "social gospel" that became prominent a century ago more skillfully than anyone else has done in recent decades.
Obama's profession of faith invigorates many and scares few because it is horizontal rather than vertical, with an emphasis on finding community rather than communing with God. Community organizers Obama worked with two decades ago saw "a part of me that remained removed, detached, that I was an observer in their midst. And in time, I came to realize that something was missing as well-that without a vessel for my beliefs, without a commitment to a particular community of faith, at some level I would always remain apart, and alone."
Obama says his joining a church "came about as a choice, and not an epiphany." Choices do not bother secular Americans; epiphanies do. Joining a church to fight loneliness makes it as unobjectionable as joining a social club, but his affiliation serves as an antidote to evidence-less charges that Obama is secretly a Muslim. He says, "I've been to the same church, the same Christian church, for almost 20 years"-and he's listened to the same far-left pastor.
Obama's Christian affiliation also gives him the opportunity to dip into language that has resonated with many Americans in prior religious-left campaigns such as those of William Jennings Bryan in 1896, 1900, and 1908. Bryan, of course, lost all three times, because of a third American tendency.
De Tocqueville wrote about the American tendency to use "crisp, clear and unadorned language" in business dealings, only to turn to "bombast" and "relentless pomposity" when indulging in supposedly poetic public speaking. But de Tocqueville thought that realism would eventually win out-and so it has been in most presidential elections of the past 30 years, even when the campaigns initially were full of air.
Obama's brilliant oratory so far has allowed him to escape specifics, but Clinton's insinuations that Obama is unprepared and unrealistic allowed her to capture big majorities among Texas and Ohio voters who made up their minds just before voting. Clinton can only go so far in that approach because she shares many ideological positions with Obama, but McCain could have great success if he goes beyond abstract citing of liberal voting records and emphasizes specifics.
The coming Iraq debate will be one example. It's one thing to argue about who opposed the war in 2003, but the real question is what to do in 2008. An article by Angelina Jolie in the Washington Post late last month, with the surprising headline "A Reason to Stay in Iraq," was worth a thousand bombastic speeches.
Jolie argued that the United States should not squander what the troop surge has achieved, an opportunity to make "humanitarian progress" that will be lost if American forces pull out precipitously. Although Cosmogirl.com readers voted Angelina Jolie No. 3 on their list of desired presidential candidates (behind Oprah and Jon Stewart, ahead of Bono), she apparently is not on McCain's list of possible running mates-but he should run with what she wrote.
If the race is McCain vs. Obama, the older senator will need to pop the younger's halo of humaneness. One way is to listen to Jill Stanek, the whistle-blowing nurse who saw close-up at an Illinois Senate committee hearing Obama's opposition to protecting even babies born alive after failed abortions: "Obama's clinical discourse, his lack of mercy, shocked me." The Chicago Sun-Times ran a cartoon of Obama holding a sign reading, "LIVE BIRTH ABORTION," God reaching down from heaven to a baby in front of the state senator, and Obama yelling at God, "You keep out of this!"
Is McCain up to criticizing Obama (or Clinton) on abortion? Perhaps not, but GOP honchos should talk with Clarise McFarlen, a 16-year-old from Wichita, Kan., who-like Obama-is of a mixed racial background. At first excited to hear of Obama's candidacy, Clarise changed her mind when she learned of his position on partial-birth abortion: "My heart just stopped. If you support killing babies, there's no way you can have true compassion."
Both Obama and Clinton received favorable press coverage from December 2007 to last month, according to a study by the Center for Media and Public Affairs: 83 percent of Obama stories and 53 percent of Clinton stories were positive. But just before the Texas and Ohio primaries some reporters became more . . .
De Tocqueville wrote, "It is an axiom of political science in the United States that the only means of neutralizing the effect of newspapers is to multiply their numbers." A generation ago the number of news outlets in America was the lowest ever in proportion to our population, and liberal reporters who virtually monopolized media could write and say the darndest things with little risk of public chastisement. In the internet and talk radio age, much has changed.
Exhibit 1: the turnabout of MSNBC's Chris Matthews, who early in February reacted to one Obama victory by saying, "I felt this thrill going up my leg. . . . [Obama] seems to have the answers. This is the New Testament." Widely ridiculed for such over-the-top treatment, Matthews just before the Texas primary aggressively questioned Kirk Watson, a former Austin mayor who is now a state senator and an Obama supporter.
"What has he accomplished, sir?" Matthews demanded. "You say you support him. Sir, you have to give me his accomplishments. You've supported him for president. You are on national television. Name his legislative accomplishments." The poor politician's answer was instructive: "Well, I'm not going to be able to name you specific items of legislative accomplishments."
Clinton supporters would probably have had the same problem, but Matthews pressed on: "Can you name any? Can you name anything he's accomplished as a congressman?" Watson, appearing as dumb as Sherlock Holmes' Watson: "No, I'm not going to be able to do that tonight." Matthews: "Well, that is a problem, isn't it?"
Yes, it is, and the press adulation that Obama received until a month ago may have created a backlash. A candidate benefits when reporters give him messianic status, but when they start to report that others are treating him as a messiah, the worm has turned.
A Lexis-Nexis search shows an average of 11 articles per month with "Obama" and "messiah" in them during 2007, 48 during January, 2008, 56 during the first half of February, and 153 during the second half.
Late last month the discomfort of liberal columnists became increasingly evident. Time's Joe Klein: "Something just a wee bit creepy about the mass messianism." The Los Angeles Times' Joel Stein: "the Cult of Obama." The New York Times' Paul Krugman: "The Obama campaign seems dangerously close to becoming a cult of personality." ABC's Jake Tapper: the "Helter-Skelter cultish qualities" of "Obama worshipers."
NBC's Saturday Night Live also made fun of mediacrats who kiss up to Obama. And the unkindest cut of all, from The Tonight Show's Jay Leno on the eve of the Texas and Ohio primaries: "If you believe the media, Barack Obama was born in a manger."
Will rambunctiousness continue? Wait and see. The election is still over seven months away.

This post brought to you by Vipre. All opinions are 100% mine.
I shared with you a few months ago that I'd downloaded VIPRE Internet Security onto the laptop I inherited from my dad. It's been a blessing to have- that's the laptop I let the kids play on, and I really REALLY like the peace of mind knowing that it's keeping malware and viruses away. We don't let our kids go onto the internet without us right there ever, but we all know how kids can click one thing innocently and poof! There are things that pop up really, really fast and I want my kids- and my laptop- protected.
Installation of this software was so simple. This laptop is a few years old (almost 4) so it's not got the latest versions of everything we might use, or rather, it didn't have them. I wasn't sure I wanted to be downloading more things onto it before I was able to secure things, so to speak. I liked the idea of Vipre because it includes a firewall, a spam filter and website blocking into one powerful solution for complete protection against malware.
VIPRE has an Easy Update automatic software patching feature – more peace of mind for me- I hadn't realized before looking into this that one of the ways viruses and malware attack is through out of date versions of programs. Yikes. Given that my dad was using this laptop for a few years – we decided to get this laptop back to "basics" as we could and remove whatever we could, install VIPRE and then update things. My dad has Alzheimer's and once upon a time worked in the world of computers but with the disease's progression, we have no idea what he clicked, downloaded, etc. Better safe than sorry!
One thing I like most about this program is that it doesn't bog down the laptop. I am not always using it for blogging stuff, but when I do use it to blog, I can't have it slowed down because a backup or scan is running. I need my laptops to be efficient and not waste my time!
VIPRE also comes with free U.S. based technical support- and trust me, I take full advantage of technical support. I may be a blogger but technical stuff eludes me….

To help other shops evaluate their tire service operations, Technology and Maintenance Council (TMC) members developed Recommended Practice RP 236, "Outsourcing Guidelines for Tire and Wheel Maintenance." It covers both in-house and shared maintenance and offers a sample Supplies Reliability Score Card. The RP also touches on warranty administration, air pressure maintenance, documentation of disposal for EPA and OSHA, and a host of other responsibilities and duties of a fleet tire operation.
Two other valuable TMC documents are RP 216C, the newly published third revision to the "Radial Tire Conditions Analysis Guide," and RP 219C, "Radial Tire Wear Conditions and Causes: A Guide to Wear Pattern Analysis." As Dave Williams of Chaney Enterprises mentions, "Your most expensive tires are on your scrap pile." The RPs help with failure analysis so you can keep more tires in-service and out of your scrap.
The Recommended Practices are available from the TMC at 703-838- 1763. They are included in the RP Manual, provided with each corporate membership.
DAVE WILLIAMS HAS several good reasons for monitoring all of the tires on Chaney Enterprises' vehicles. "Tires are always in my top three cost items, right behind labor and fuel. And in the last 20 months, they've risen almost 50 percent," says the fleet maintenance manager for the producer based in Waldorf, Md. "That's why we closely manage our tires."
Chaney Enterprises operates 130 ready-mix trucks, 21 dump trucks, and 30 to 40 pieces of heavy equipment. The producer also operates 13 dry-bulk cement trucks pulled by owner-operators. That represents a large number of tires and a great investment.
To keep costs under control, Williams has developed a tire management system encompassing purchasing, service, maintenance, training, personnel development, and equipment. All costs and activities are measured, recorded, and evaluated.
The producer pays bonuses for achievable results. These range from meeting or exceeding targets for fleet availability, time in shops for repairs or after breakdowns, and preventive maintenance compliance. "If it isn't measured, it isn't managed," says Williams, who is also vice chairman of the NRMCA Operations Committee.
"Most tire services, especially road calls, are done by one primary vendor. They keep our tires in inventory, but we also maintain a backup stock of all our tire sizes and types, mounted on rims, to minimize downtime," he explains. "When every minute may count, it is less costly to waste a load that is too old than remove one that has set in a drum. Sometimes that can involve tearing apart a drum, so time is absolutely critical."
Chaney's tire specialist, John Fenwick, works at the Waldorf shop. When there's a road service call, they generally buy a new tire. Then the truck or trailer is brought to Waldorf and Fenwick changes the new tire for a retreaded one, keeping the new tire as a steer tire replacement.
All replaced tires are brought back to Waldorf for inspection. If they are repairable, they will be returned to service or sent for retreading. Before scrapping a tire, two people must sign off on its condition.
"As a rule, the first recap goes on our dump trucks or trailers," William says. "The second goes on mixers. We don't retread more than two times."
The producer buys new tires for the steer axle or when it needs to generate casings. Even with new equipment, steer tires are specified in all positions and all but steers are replaced with recaps. The retreaded tires are provided through the same company that sells new tires and does road service. That vendor does all scheduled work.
The tires Chaney uses do not have an aggressive high-tractor tread. A more moderate tread pattern keeps trucks out of difficult areas. The producer's "concrete delivery professionals" check air pressure daily, use an air gauge at least once a week, and report the reading. All are issued air gauges that can be recalibrated. A master gauge is kept at each location and each gauge is checked regularly.
"Because of the time involved in checking tire pressures, we switched from standard metal valve caps to flow through caps. That cut gauging time from 20 minutes per truck to only three," Williams says.
He also emphasizes the term "delivery professional," noting that their duties extend far beyond just driving. Like shop technicians and other Chaney personnel, they are given about 40 hours of ongoing training each year.
Chaney Enterprises runs top-quality, first-line tires because they are more durable and provide more recapping capability. Currently, they are rethinking their purchases. When their leading supplier had a significant price increase, Williams changed a portion of his tire purchases to another tier-one manufacturer.
He also began to test tires from second-tier suppliers. At any given time, he may have six to eight new tires in testing. He is also evaluating lower initial prices in relation to possibly losing one retreading per tire.
Tires are thoroughly examined for damage, including irregular tread wear every time trucks are in the shop for regular maintenance. Service is generally based on fuel consumption. Ready-mix trucks are due after 1200 gallons, or about 7000 miles or 90 days. Those are limits. Whichever is reached first is when the mixer is scheduled for maintenance. For dump trucks, it's 1600 gallons, 8000 miles, or 90 days. All trucks are serviced at least four times a year.
Chaney's tire maintenance has evolved to become very effective in managing tire costs and, perhaps more critical, maximizing vehicle uptime.

THE CAPITAL, TALLAHASSEE, June 29, 2012
Brandon Larrabee, The News Service of Florida
The state and the opponents of a suspended voter registration law are moving toward a settlement in a lawsuit over the new rules, both sides said Thursday, even as a group of voters is trying to brush aside the state's legal strategy and pursue an appeal.
In a brief scheduling conference Thursday with U.S. District Court Judge Robert Hinkle, who struck down new regulations on third-party voter registration organizations at the end of last month, an attorney for the groups said the two sides were close to striking a deal.
"We expect to get something on file with the court shortly memorializing the agreement," said Farrah Berse, a lawyer representing opponents who had sued to block the law.
In an interview later on Thursday, Secretary of State Ken Detzner confirmed that both sides are trying to avoid a longer legal battle over the voter law, passed by the Legislature last year.
"I'm optimistic that we'll probably get a good result and there won't be an appeal," Detzner said. "That's not final, but we're optimistic."
In a decision issued May 31, Hinkle struck down a part of the law that require groups like the League of Women Voters and Rock the Vote to turn in voter registration forms to election officials within 48 hours of getting them filled out, down from 10 days under earlier laws.
Hinkle also barred the state from requiring volunteers to sign a form that misled voters about the penalties for unknowingly submitting forms with inaccurate information on them. The deadline for an appeal is Monday.
Neither side gave details of the likely settlement, but Berse said it was likely to closely track with Hinkle's ruling and provide for the state to cover at least some of the plaintiffs' legal bills in the case.
With an appeal from the state unlikely, several voters filed a motion this week allowing them to intervene in the case for the specific purpose of keeping the fight going. Those voters argue that a flawed registration process could lay the groundwork for voter fraud and harm eligible voters.
"Thus, this Court should allow Intervenors to join this litigation to allow appellate review of this Court?s crucial ruling concerning the 48-hour rule, because it protects Intervenors? individualized fundamental constitutional right to vote by safeguarding it against dilution, questions concerning the rule?s legality and constitutionality are of widespread public importance, the State itself is highly unlikely to take an appeal, and this Court?s injunction could have a direct impact on the 2012 general election in Florida," the group's filing says.
Even without an appeal, legal fights over part of the law are likely to continue. A federal court in Washington, D.C., is considering whether to allow the most controversial portions of the law to go into effect in five counties covered by Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act. Because of a history of racial and language discrimination in those counties, any changes to elections laws must be precleared either by the court or the U.S. Department of Justice.
Lawyers for the state had suggested last week at a hearing in that case that the state was backing off the registration rules, but a spokesman for Detzner said then that no decision had been made on an appeal.

For the past several weeks I have been looking on the internet for, but unable to find, some information on how to perform user provisioning tasks in Zimbra via SOAP/Perl.
Attached is a Perl script that contains several subroutines that allow easy manipulation of a Zimbra server using only the perl modules that were supplied with the Zimbra installation. To setup the script, modify these variables to match your Zimbra server:
To retrieve either just the Zimbra ID or a complete listing of all of the attributes associated with a specific user account, call one of the following subroutines:Quote:
my $zimbraAdmin = "admin";
my $zimbraPasswd = "z1mbra";
my $mh = "zimbra.test.domain.org";
To create a new account, call the following subroutine with the new account name, a password, the users name, and an employee number (this is the primary key of our personnel database, not necessary for normal Zimbra operation):Quote:
get_zimbra_id($mailAcct) # Returns Zimbra ID as a scalar variable
get_account($mailAcct) # Prints all account information
To modify an existing account, call the following subroutine with the account name, the attribute to be modified and the new attribute value:Quote:
create_account($newAcct,$newPasswd,$newgivenName,$ newsn,$newdispName,$newempNum)
The policy in our organization is to disable (lock) accounts after a user disappears from our personnel database. A locked account will still receive any email sent to it, however, the user will not be able to log in and retrieve these messages. After a period of 90 days, the account is then closed (mail sent will bounce back to sender) and the admin is notified to archive and remove the account from Zimbra.Quote:
If the user reappears in our personnel database, we simply call the following subroutine and the existing account is restored to an active state:Quote:
disable_account($disAcct) # Account locked, still visible in GAL
close_account($disAcct) # Account closed, no longer visible in GAL
Hopefully, these subroutines will help someone trying to accomplish a similar task...Quote:
enable_account($disAcct) # Reenable a locked or closed account
