Past the political divide, Cuba invites us with rich traditions and small delights
A WOMAN in torn jeans and a ruffled top talks on a cellphone as we get ready to board our Cubana Air flight to Havana from Cancún, Mexico.
The men in line next to us check three flat-screen Samsung TV sets — and bring aboard a stack of Italian panini presses as carry-on luggage.
The plane is Soviet-made. The snacks are Canadian. We know we're on our way to Cuba when, once airborne, the flight attendant offers plastic cups of Havana Club rum.
- Designed in Seattle, this $1 cup could save millions of babies
- Trump, Clinton win Washington state primary
- Reed brother led detectives to bodies believed to be Arlington couple
- Boeing plans hundreds of layoffs in local IT unit
- Your vote counts so little in Tuesday's primary election, John Oliver joked about it on 'Last Week Tonight'

An hour later, we land at modern, efficient José Martí International Airport. An immigration agent checks our passports, but doesn't stamp them. We pass through metal detectors where a security worker in tight white shorts, a black tank top and white sandals wands us down. TSA, not.
"Welcome to Cuba," she says with a smile.
We're in.
Most lasting memory of my first trip to Cuba: Riding a 1955 cream-colored Chevy taxi on the 4-mile-long Malecón, Havana's oceanside boulevard, as saltwater splashes over the seawall and "Hotel California" plays on the radio.
We're headed to La Coppélia Havana, a sprawling ice-cream emporium that could be mistaken for a slightly rundown amusement park. Built by Fidel Castro in 1966, it was supposed to be Cuba's answer to Howard Johnson's.
Everyone here is smiling. Even a wait in line — sometimes two or three hours on busy weekends — turns into a party, with couples kissing, kids playing and strangers striking up conversations.
"Welcome to Cuba," says a man sitting next to us. We watch in awe as our Cuban tablemates order 10 plastic dishes of ice cream — 50 scoops in all for about 4 cents each, a grand total of $2.
"Frienemies" is what one Cuban jokingly called the few American travelers he sees here. Tourism is booming — to the tune of about 2.7 million visitors in 2011, up 7 percent from the year before. But because the U.S. government forbids most Americans from traveling to Cuba unless they are on educational or cultural tours, it's mostly Canadians and Europeans filling the hotels and tour buses, sipping mojitos and riding around in the vintage American cars or yellow open-air oval taxis called "little eggs."
"Why on earth would an American want to go to Cuba?" asked a man standing behind me at passport control, then answered himself by telling me that he finds the island "unlike anyplace I've ever visited."
SHORTLY AFTER Castro took power in 1959 and seized privately owned assets, the United States imposed an embargo that has restricted American travel in varying degrees ever since. The Obama administration cracked open the door in 2011, but in recent months reversed course.
Tour operators taking Americans to Cuba are now being required to submit extensive paperwork to renew their licenses. Only a few of about 140 programs with one-year licenses have been renewed. Some have had to cancel or delay trips and lay off staff.
San Francisco's Global Exchange, an international human-rights organization that sponsored the tour my husband and I joined last fall, says it is reviewing its options for some types of tours while joining other groups in petitioning the U.S. to reconsider the new rules.
"The situation is changing day by day," says Carleen Pickard, executive director of Global Exchange.
Because our group traveled under a license Global Exchange has for professionals doing research, we had the freedom not only to travel with a group but also to spend another five days exploring on our own — seeing Cuba as it is, in the ordinary rhythms of life.
A socialist state just 90 miles from Miami, it's changing fast as Fidel's brother, Raúl Castro, attempts to remake a state-controlled economic system that's left its citizens dependent on jobs and subsidies the government can no longer provide.
"Every morning, we wake up and there's another change," says our group's guide, Jesus Noguera, dressed comfortably for Havana's heat and humidity in sandals, a green polo shirt and khaki shorts.
Today, it's an announcement that farmers, once they've met their quota for providing the government with produce at set prices (often so low, they discourage production), can now sell their surpluses directly to hotels and restaurants at whatever price they can get.
This follows news that Cuban residents can buy and sell homes and used cars (previously only trades were officially permitted) and start many new types of private businesses, including home restaurants called "paladares" and "casa particulares," Cuban-style bed-and-breakfasts.
Like most Cubans, Jesus works for a company owned by the state. A single father, he makes, at age 44, the equivalent of about $20 a month — the same as a doctor, teacher or waiter — in return for free medical care, education, nearly free housing and government-subsidized transportation and basic foods.
After graduating college, he worked as a social worker, but later turned to tourism for the same reason many doctors and teachers moonlight as waiters or taxi drivers.
"It's all about the tips," he explains as our minibus pulls away for a day of sightseeing in Havana Vieja, the oldest part of the city. Once a slum, the area is now getting a massive, government-financed makeover aimed at boosting tourism. It's our first lesson in understanding Cuba's two-headed economy.
Tourists bring in the hard currency that Cubans need to buy many of the things they want and need. The tips we leave, and most everything we pay for — hotel rooms, taxi fares, meals — are paid in convertible pesos called CUCs (pronounced kooks) — each worth approximately $1.
State wages, on the other hand, are paid in Cuban pesos (called CUPs or moneda nationale), with a conversion rate of 25 to $1.
While the national money buys some government-subsidized staples — coffee cut with pea flour, for example, so bad it causes percolators to explode; cooking oil, pizza sold from kitchen windows and cheap, plentiful ice cream at La Coppélia — it's no substitute for the coveted CUCs.
Bottom line: If you want the best chicken or fish, a Chinese-made washing machine, a cellphone, computer, TV, an Internet card or the latest fashions, you have to pay with money the state doesn't use to pay you.
And you'd better have plenty of it. Because of the U.S. embargo, which prevents Cuba from importing any American-made product or anything made with American parts, these items sell at inflated prices, often more than they would cost in the U.S. or Canada.
A conundrum in a country full of them.
WHAT YOU DON'T see in Cuba is as mysterious as what you do see. There are no billboards, for instance, or signs advertising sales or discounts. No Starbucks. No McDonald's. Few real stores.
For the average Cuban — an estimated 40 percent have no access to hard currency either through jobs or what relatives in the U.S. send — "shopping" means lining up outside a darkened booth to buy sugar or cooking oil with ration coupons, or, for those with access to dollars, wandering through a cluttered "hard currency" store such as La Distinguida on Calle Obispo, Old Havana's main shopping street, where a bottle of dishwashing soap costs $3.15 and an extension cord goes for $12.
The "struggle," a word that took on special meaning during the revolution that brought Castro to power, continues in new ways.
Cuban activist and writer Yoani Sánchez documents the inconsistencies in "Havana Real," a compilation of blog posts translated into English by Mary Jo Porter of Seattle.
Sánchez no longer has to disguise herself as a foreigner to buy an Internet card in the lobby of a hotel, for instance, but despite 19 tries since 2006 for a visa, she's still not free to travel outside Cuba.
One day I put together a list of all the ways I see people trying to make money. I watch a man selling rolls of toilet paper out of a plastic bag. Others sell peanuts in paper cones, cookies out of buckets, or pizzas and pastries from their front windows.
"Leave the tour guide and find your own people to talk to," writes blogger Angel Santiesteban on translatingcuba.com, where Porter and other volunteers translate the work of Cuban bloggers into English. "Don't stay in the hotel swimming pool, walk along the Malecón, and enter the Cuban reality."
AWAY FROM the tour group, we travel three hours from Havana by bus to rural Viñales, a UNESCO site known for its national park, limestone cliffs and farms harvesting tobacco and corn.
Scenic hikes and cave explorations await, but the best reason to come to Viñales is to do as Angel suggests — get far enough away from the bubble of tourist Havana to experience real life by staying with a family in a casa particular.
We settle into Casa Papo y Niulvys, a peach-colored bungalow with a bright, spacious guest room overlooking a garden on a quiet residential street.
Niulvys, 36, is a gracious and talkative hostess who teaches high-school physics and electronics. We quickly agree to let her cook supper for us. Add a couple of Papo's pre-dinner mojitos spiked with fresh mint from the garden, and we paid around $50 a night for the room, breakfast, drinks and dinner for two.
Niulvys uses her government ration booklet to buy cheap sugar and a few other staples, but for the coffee, pork, chicken or lobster she serves guests, she goes to privately run farmers markets or stores and pays in the hard currency she earns from tourists.
Government taxes on the casas are high — $150 per month in low season and $200 in high season — whether or not they have guests every day. But with the income they earn, the family is able to buy things they could never otherwise afford. They turned a closet into a computer room for their children and recently bought a second air conditioner for the house.
"It's difficult," says Niulvys, who never seems to stop laughing or smiling. "But we are Cubans. We adapt."
IT'S TEMPTING to spend our last few days on our own back in Havana in a historic hotel such as the Ambos Mundos, where Ernest Hemingway wrote from an upstairs room, but instead we pick out another casa particular, this time in Havana Centro, a gritty neighborhood of crumbling streets and peeling paint where few tourists wander.
Compared to pristine Havana Vieja, Centro is like a rich man who lost all his money and is gradually earning it back.
Many of the buildings are falling apart. Others, built in the late 19th and early 20th centuries when this part of Havana attracted movie stars and wealthy Americans, house beautifully restored hotels and restaurants.
Sitting one evening on the tiled terrace of the faded Hotel Inglaterra, we try to imagine what the French-designed Paseo del Prado promenade was like pre-1959 before Fidel Castro's revolutionary forces evoked the 03C rule: Zero Movies. Zero Shopping. Zero Night Clubs.
The scene probably wasn't all that different from what it is today. Tourists sip drinks on the patio, breathing cigar smoke and exhaust fumes. A woman in a white halter top sits night after night at the same table, sipping a Coke while she waits for a customer who will pay her more for a few hours than a doctor makes in five months.
As guests at Casa Colonial Yadilis y Joel, we wake to the sound of a man yelling "Pan y mantequilla!" (Bread and butter!) as he wheels a large blue box down the street.
Why run down the stairs when you can put your money in a basket, lower it on a rope from your balcony and pull up a loaf of fresh bread?
Yadilis' grandmother left Cuba for the U.S. after the revolution, and for a long while Yadilis wanted her family to join her mother and other relatives living in Miami. But Joel was convinced they could build a future in Havana, and persuaded her to stay and open the casa particular. They traded houses with a woman next door and spent several years remodeling guest rooms in an 80-year-old walk-up painted bright pink.
Yadilis dreams of the day when she can visit her family in the U.S., but so far, the only way the Cuban government will give her a visa is if she travels without her two young children.
She is a busy woman, involved in her church and things around the house, so we didn't get to chat as much as I would have liked. But when we leave, she kisses us goodbye.
"When are you coming back?" she asks. "When are you coming to the United States?" I ask, "with your children?" She answers without hesitation.
"It is my dream."

Here's how you use it though:
Install/activate the plugin, in the WordPress admin, go to Appearance > widgets, drag the "Customizable Search" widget into the sidebar, then you can customize away. Works good for me!

A new approach to the dynamical evolution of a waveguide laser is presented which goes beyond the usual Maxwell-Bloch (MB) equations in that it takes fully into account the phase of the matter quantum field that describes the atomic systems. As an experimental check of its effectiveness, we analyze in its light a recent set of experiments on the effects of a ?dephasing? of the electromagnetic laser field that find no explanation within the MB equations but, on the contrary, are in very good agreement with its expectations

New Haven — Convinced that Steven Thomas had turned himself around years ago, U.S. District Judge Janet Bond Arterton on Wednesday sentenced the former tribal treasurer convicted of stealing from the tribe that owns Foxwoods Resort Casino to two years probation, the first three months of which must be served in home confinement.
Thomas must also repay the tribe $177,603, the amount of his 2007 salary as assistant director of the tribe's Department of Natural Resources Protection, and serve 200 hours of off-reservation community service. The judge chose not to impose a fine.
"Quite impressively, you reformed yourself — and before the hot breath of an investigation was on your neck," the judge said, addressing Thomas and his attorney, Richard Reeve, who stood before her at a lectern. "That's a strong statement."
Reeve had argued in a pre-sentencing memorandum that Thomas had accepted responsibility for his wrongdoing well before the federal government began a 2010 investigation into corruption on the Mashantucket reservation.
Thomas left the tribal-government job voluntarily and was elected to the tribal council in 2009. In 2012, he was named council treasurer.
He resigned from the council last Oct. 2, a day before pleading guilty to a single count of embezzling from the tribe. In exchange for his plea, the government dropped two other theft charges and agreed not to oppose Thomas' bid for a prison term shorter than the 12 to 18 months suggested under federal sentencing guidelines.
"It's entirely at the court's discretion," Assistant U.S. Attorney Christopher Mattei said Wednesday.
Thomas, at the time of his pleading, admitted in court that he "intentionally" signed time cards on which he "overstated" the hours he worked. While the parties had differed over the amount of work Thomas performed, Reeve said Wednesday there was no dispute that "the vast majority of the time, (Thomas) was a no-show employee."
Reeve described Thomas' transformation, a process Reeve said mirrored the tribe's comeback from the financial difficulties that forced it to restructure a debt load of more than $2.2 billion.
"We all hope that a light will go on," Reeve told Arterton. "Sometimes it takes someone bottoming out … and being arrested. Without question, that light went on (for Thomas) and has been shining. It was shining before this investigation ever began."
Thomas, whom the tribe rehired in a new position in December, said he was "brash, very complacent, very entitled and unmotivated" when he first went to work for the tribe. "Then, one day the light bulb switched."
As a councilor, he said, he had to walk among "blood relations" every day and answer tough questions.
"It's all business, all the time," he said. "It was the best thing I could have done. I was looking to redeem myself. … I'll have to do that for the rest of my life."
Thomas' conviction will prevent him from holding tribal office again or working on the tribe-owned casino's gaming floor.
His older brother Michael, indicted along with him in January 2013, was convicted months ago by a jury that found him guilty of embezzling about $100,000 from the tribe by misusing a tribe-issued credit card for personal expenses. He began serving an 18-month prison term last month.
Unlike Steven, Michael Thomas, a former tribal chairman, held office at the time of his transgressions.

Headquartered since '04 in Dumbo, Brooklyn's chicest neighborhood on the rise, " halcyon the shop," is the brand's second concept space, integrating the DJ-centric record store from the previous embodiment with an expanded gallery and design boutique that define the avant-garde of Brooklyn street aesthetics. (via http://halcyonline.com/)
Out of 26 people who signed up for this meet-up, only 3 showed up (incl. myself). I have to question the commitment of the group's members. On the bright side, Darcee, the event coordinator, was quite lovely to meet and talk with. I have serious reservations about attending another event. I may give it one more chance.

'Argo,' 'Les Miserables' win best-pic Globes
But "Silver Linings Playbook" is a crowd-pleasing comic drama with deeper themes than the usual comedy. And Lawrence - a 2010 Oscar nominee for her breakout film "Winter's Bone" who shot to superstardom with "The Hunger Games" - delivers a nice mix of humor and melancholy.
"What does this say? I beat Meryl," Lawrence joked as she looked at her award, referring to fellow nominee and multiple Globe winner Meryl Streep. Lawrence went on to thank her mother for believing in her and her father for making her maintain a sense of humor.
Waltz won supporting actor for his role as a genteel bounty hunter who takes on an ex-slave as apprentice in Quentin Tarantino's for "Django Unchained.
The win was Waltz's second supporting-actor prize at the Globes, both of them coming in Tarantino films; he previously won for "Inglourious Basterds."
"Let me gasp," said Waltz, whose competition included "Django" co-star Leonardo DiCaprio. "Quentin, you know that my indebtedness to you and my gratitude knows no words."
Tarantino won the screenplay prize for "Django Unchained." He thanked his cast and also the group of friends to whom he reads work-in-progress for reaction.
"You guys don't know how important you are to my process. I don't want input. I don't want you to tell me if I'm doing anything wrong. Heavens forbid," Tarantino said. "When I read it to you, I hear it through your ears, and it lets me know I'm on the right track."
The Scottish tale "Brave" won for best animated film. It was the sixth win for Disney's Pixar Animation unit in the seven years since the Globes added the category.
Austrian director Michael Haneke's old-age love story "Amour," a surprise best-picture nominee for the Oscars, won the Globe for foreign-language film. The top prize winner at last May's Cannes Film Festival, "Amour" is a grim yet moving portrait of an elderly woman tended by her husband as she is incapacitated by age.
Pop star Adele and co-writer Paul Epworth won for best song for their theme tune to the James Bond adventure "Skyfall."
"Oh, my God!" Adele gushed repeatedly, before offering gratitude to the group that presents the Globes. "I'd like to thank the Hollywood Foreign Press. I never thought I'd say that."
The prize for musical score went to Mychael Danna for the lost-at-sea tale "Life of Pi."
Show hosts Fey and Poehler, who co-starred in the 2008 big-screen comedy "Baby Mama," had a friendly rivalry at the Globes. Both were nominated for best actress in a TV comedy series, Fey for "30 Rock" and Poehler for "Parks and Recreation."
"Tina, I just want to say that I very much hope that I win," Poehler told Fey at the start of the show.
"Thank you. You're my nemesis. Thank you," Fey replied.
Neither won. Lena Dunham claimed the comedy series Globe for "Girls."
After that, Fey and Poehler showed up on stage with cocktail glasses, Fey joking that it was time to start drinking.
"Everyone's getting a little loose now that we're all losers," Poehler said.
Among other TV winners, Julianne Moore won a best-actress Globe for her role as Sarah Palin in "Game Change," which also was picked as best TV miniseries or movie and earned Ed Harris a supporting-actor prize. Best actor in a miniseries or movie went to Kevin Costner for "Hatfields & McCoys." "Homeland" was named best TV drama series, and its stars Claire Danes and Damian Lewis received the dramatic acting awards. Maggie Smith won as supporting actress for "Downton Abbey."

Well, long story short I got busy with other things in general and bike riding fell by the wayside. Now I've decided I REALLY need to get a good road bike (esp now that I've moved out of the city), but as usual, the old wallet is pretty thin.
As I griped about way back last year this area seems to have VERY little to offer. I've even put a down payment (out of desperation?) on a 2011 Specialized Allez Double Steel (okay bike I'm sure, but nothing like what I COULD get for the money).
I've found a Schwinn Paramount Series 5 PDG in the Bay Area (Benicia to be exact, it's in the "are you looking" thread) but the seller won't ship. I have a cousin in San Jose who can go pick it up in about 10 days, but he's got no idea how to pack/ship. Are there any bike shops in the East Bay Area that can pack (and for that matter, ship)?
I've trolled CL, ebay, and jaxed for the past week to the point I'm sick and tired of it...more accurately, sick and tired of seeing good bikes 500-1000 miles away somewhere and crappy department store junk here. Seen a FEW interesting ads in Springfield CL and emailed, even texted but no replies.
Oh, and would the buyer of THIS lovely Super Course (it was on CL in suburban Boston last year for $600, wish I had bought it somehow) please step forward? I want your bike

Webcam footage provided by National Geographic shows a family of bald eagles that has been nesting in Southwest Washington. They've captured the attention of D.C.'s finest.
"So we think that they're between six and eight weeks old now," says Barbara Moffet, spokesperson for National Geographic.
In March, two eagles hatched high above the Metropolitan Police Academy.
"As they get bigger they stand on the edge of their nest and start flapping their wings to try out flying," says Moffet.
Following the suggestion of Chief Cathy Lanier, National Geographic is now streaming live footage of the eagle family on its website with a camera mounted nearby.
"Our guys have been working for several weeks to get it up into this tree 80 feet high," Moffet says.
"Since the camera went live, my productivity has gone down a little bit," Lanier says. "I have it up on one screen in my office. It stays on constantly."
After the Boston bombings this week, Chief Lanier says she felt moved by these images and decided to share them through police list serves.
"[T]he symbol of our country's strength and freedom can remind us all what America stands for," Lanier wrote in an email to residents Wednesday.
"It literally has gone viral," Lanier says. "I've gotten over 300 responses already."
In the neighborhood, residents say it surprises them to learn bald eagles would live here.
"Yes it does, it does, it does. But hey, welcome!" says Duwayne Patterson.
"Oh it's beautiful," says Rodney Stotts of Earth Conservation Corps. "Beautiful. And to know I had a part of it, it's a blessing."
Since 199, the Anacostia-based Earth Conservation Corps has been working to bring the birds to Washington and educate young people about this once-endangered species.
"They're beautiful birds to begin with, but it's so patriotic when you're here in the nation's capital and you see them in that nest overlooking the Potomac River, it's an amazing sight. Amazing," says Chief Lanier.
Chief Lanier says she now hopes to establish a more formal partnership between NPD and Earth Conservation Corps to get more youth from the community involved in the effort.

How do I get started?
Is it expensive to buy pins?
I use to have some but they are lost....
any websites that give away free pins?
WDW has tons of starter pin packs. They consist of a lanyard and usually 4 pins...2 to keep and 2 to trade. Or you could always buy a lanyard and pins separately. It certainly can get costly to buy pins IMO.
I have gone on Ebay and purchased a bag of trading pins so we could trade at the parks. It was certainly cheaper to do it that way. I personally wouldn't want to trade any pins that I bought at Disney but that's just me.
I also think ebay is a great place to start.... and like Johnie said, you can get enough "tradeble pins" to exchange for ones you really want once in the parks
You can also buy pins inside the parks and in the resorts, I dont remember exactly but I think they are about 6.50 each... for regular pins.... and you can trade them with most CMs
Here's a link to Disney Event Services pin trading information. I found it when I was looking at a way to get my grandsons started pin trading. Lots of useful information.
Tom (... who knows nothing about pins himself)

???: "Inside the grottoes of Rüütli" Top 5 Page for this destination Tartu Shopping Tip by King_Golo
Tartu Shopping: 5 reviews and 2 photos
Maybe I've missed the name sign, but as far as I know this book antiquarian shop doesn't have a name... Instead, it has a large selection of old books of all kinds. There's a whole shelf full of Estonian children's books from 50 years ago, other shelves are full of history books, political comments, biographies, you name it. Interestingly, one can also find old German books, dating back to the early 20th century when the town was still called Dorpat and German was a commonly spoken language... I enjoyed the atmosphere of this place very much even despite knowing Estonian.
Btw, just next door (or next room, to be exact), there's a ethno handicraft shop. Be warned, that the smell of incense is everywhere. I became very very sleepy after some minutes...
What to buy: books, of course
What to pay: I believe that you might be able to barter about your purchases, but if not, don't blame me
Address: Rüütli, at the corner of Munga
Directions: central Tartu

Distillations podcast explores the human stories behind science and technology, tracing a path through history in order to better understand the present. Our hosts are Michal Meyer, a historian of science and editor in chief of Distillations magazine, and Bob Kenworthy, CHF's in-house chemist. Each month we explore stories from the intersection of science, culture, and history.

Mother Nature can do a lot of damage. Tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, and droughts destroy landscapes and ruin lives. But what happens when humans are the ones creating these disasters? This episode of Distillations explores the many ways humans have provoked nature's destructive forces purposefully and inadvertently throughout history.

The early days of neuroscience relied on tragedy to strike—a rabies infection, a botched lobotomy—before doctors could peek inside the brains of humans. Today advanced technology, such as the functional MRI, helps scientists study brains far more easily. The revelations they're making call into question conventional ideas of maturity and our capacity for free will.

In 2014 the United States had 650 reported cases of measles, a disease made preventable by a vaccine introduced 30 years ago. The majority of these measles victims were children whose parents chose not to vaccinate them. Meanwhile at least 85,000 dietary supplements line the shelves of GNC and other "big box" chains, as well as smaller health food stores. Even though the FDA cannot ensure the safety or effectiveness of any of these products before they're sold, they enjoy widespread popularity in the United States. This episode of Distillations explores what connects these two issues.
Our journey starts in Shanghai, where reporter Rebecca Kanthor investigates a strange fashion trend among pregnant women—a special apron meant to protect its wearers from the harms of electromagnetic radiation.
Then we talk with Paul Offit, an infectious disease pediatrician at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and author of Bad Faith: When Religious Belief Undermines Modern Medicine, and Catherine Price, author of Vitamania: Our Obsessive Quest for Nutritional Perfection, about what drives these fads. Our guests suggest that faith, a desire for easy answers, and a lack of trust in medical science all come into play.

Some technologies flash in the pan so quickly they hardly leave a trace (Google Glass anyone?); while others seem to stick around long past their use by date. And still other creations appear to be gone for good, only to make a comeback within a niche—and likely nostalgic—community. We set out to explore the rhymes and reasons behind these ebbs and flows of technological innovation and obsolescence. First we go to a place where digital nostalgia is alive and well: a vintage video arcade outside of Chicago. Reporter Colleen Pellissier tells the story of one man who dedicates his life to keeping these old and cranky machines running. Then we talk to Ben Gross, a historian of technology and a fellow at CHF. He shares his love of the long-forgotten video disc and explains why nothing is obvious when it comes to the successes and failures of technologies.

In case you hadn't noticed, during our short time on Earth we humans have created a lot of stuff. Some of it is life-altering, like the device you're looking at right now, and some of it is pretty silly, like those plastic, banana-shaped containers made for holding bananas. Regardless of their value, these objects all have one thing in common: one day they will become trash. For all the time we spend creating these wonders, we don't devote much energy to thinking about what happens when their intended life-cycles run out.
This episode of Distillations traces the history of trash, consumerism, and municipal garbage collection in the United States, and explores what the future holds.
First, reporter Daniel Gross tells us the origin story of kitty litter, an ingenious consumer product that transformed a natural resource straight into trash.
Then we talk with Carl Zimring, an American environmental historian and Associate Professor of Sustainability Studies at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York. He describes the early days of garbage collection and tells us why we need to start designing for sustainability.

Thirty years ago an HIV diagnosis was a death sentence. Today, sophisticated drug cocktails known as highly active antiretroviral therapy, or HAART, have dramatically changed the fates of people with the disease.
Yet in many ways we're treading water: each year the U.S. sees around 50,000 new HIV cases, and estimates show that 20-25% of these people don't know they're infected. And, while the drugs are effective, many people throughout the world can't afford them.
So should we consider our response to HIV a complete success story? This episode of Distillations tries to find the answer.
Our journey begins in San Francisco's Castro District, the epicenter of the city's HIV epidemic in the 1980s. Reporter Andrew Bowen talks to AIDS activist Tez Anderson, who started an organization to combat AIDS Survivor Syndrome.
Then we talk to Dr. Mark W. Kline and Andrew P. Rice, a physician and a virologist who have been working on HIV since the 1980s, and ask them if we can claim victory.

At the beginning of the 19th century women in the United States had an average of seven or eight children. By 1900 they had only three or four, and today 35% of American women have exactly two. How did this happen?
This episode of Distillations explores the role technology has played in reproduction, and how it has affected the ethical and moral landscape that surrounds it.
First, reporter Allison Quantz talks to her sister to find out what she plans to do with her extra frozen embryos. Along the way Quantz learns that there are more than one million frozen embryos in the United States with similar uncertain futures.
Then we talk with Deanna Day, a historian of medicine and technology and a post-doctoral fellow at CHF, and Lara Freidenfelds, a historian who writes about women's health, sex, and reproduction in America.

Chemical weapons have played a chilling role in human history ever since they were first used in World War I. As reports of more recent use continue to cycle through the news, we decided to take a deeper look. We wanted to understand why chemical weapons were created in the first place, the ethical dilemmas inherent in their use, and the complicated process of getting rid of them.
The story begins in Belgium, where reporter Helena de Groot visits a farm in Flanders Fields—the frontline during World War I—and discovers that for some people the war isn't yet over.
Then we talk to Jeffrey Johnson, a historian of science and technology at Villanova University with a special interest in the origins of chemical warfare, and Amy E. Smithson, a senior fellow at the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies, who specializes in modern-day chemical and biological weapons and their proliferation. Our guests discuss the past and present of chemical weapons, and share their thoughts about the future of warfare.

If you asked people which of their senses they most feared losing, they'd probably say sight or hearing. But what about the ability to smell? This episode of Distillations examines what is perhaps our most underrated sense, and ponders what life would be like without it.
We hit the streets of South Philadelphia to understand how a pervasive odor troubled neighborhood residents in the summer of 2014. Then we hear the story of Mario Rivas, a man who has lived his whole life without a sense of smell, and the great lengths he went to gain one.
Then, we'll talk to two smell experts, Pamela Dalton, a psychologist at the Monell Chemical Senses Center in Philadelphia, and David Barnes, a professor of the history of medicine and public health at the University of Pennsylvania. Our guests discuss the connection between smelling, odors, and emotions, as well as the history of odors, germs, and public health crises.
Explore the fascinating history of chemistry and the role science plays in the modern world at our museum in Philadelphia.

"The Monkees themselves are a harmless lot, little pop-idol puppies who can't sing, can't dance, can't talk, don't need to."
—Roger Ebert's 1971 assessment of the group
"Hey, hey we're the Monkees
and people say we monkey around,
but we're too busy singing
to put anybody down..."
and people say we monkey around,
but we're too busy singing
to put anybody down..."
— The Monkees television show theme
This article is primarily about the band; the series has a page here.The Monkees started when two TV producers, Bob Rafelson and Bert Schneider, placed an ad in entertainment industry trade papers calling for "Folk & Roll Musicians-Singers for acting roles in new TV series". The "4 insane boys" who made the cut were Former Child Star and Garage Band singer Micky Dolenz, expatriate Brit turned Broadway musical head-liner Davy Jones, singer/songwriter Michael Nesmith, and Greenwich Village folkie Peter Tork. While all four Monkees had previous musical experience, Nesmith and Tork had no professional acting experience (the two had some high school and college acting creds), but they adapted quickly.The Monkees project was instantly successful—tellingly, the first single, "Last Train to Clarksville", started climbing the charts before the TV series went on the air—and the "4 insane boys" soon found themselves major stars. Still, musical director Don Kirshner rarely let them play on their records (or write their own songs)—which was kept secret until the frustrated band revealed it to the media, losing some credibility in the process. Continuing conflict culminated in Kirshner getting fired, and the Monkees took of control of their music and show, which both became increasingly free-wheeling and psychedelic. Even though the four had gotten greater control of song-writing, the band continued to take advantage of the pool of songwriters assembled for the show, since — paraphrasing Peter Tork — if you had access to Neil Diamond and Carole King in their prime writing songs for your band, wouldn't you use those songs?The hits continued for a while, even after the Monkees gave up their TV series after its second season. However, the group's 1968 film Head, a surreal, deliberately plot-less Deconstruction of the band's journey through the Show Business meat grinder, was a flop (although it's become a Cult Classic). Eventually, their record sales dropped, and Tork left, followed by Nesmith. In 1969, Saturday morning reruns of the TV series got good ratings, which led to Dolenz and Jones doing Changes, a return to the bubblegum pop of the early albums. However, the songs on Changes were not as catchy or distinctive as the ones on the band's early albums. Changes didn't chart, and that was the end of the Monkees. The four ex-members went on with their lives—until 1986.In 1986, MTV began celebrating the Monkees' 20th anniversary by rerunning their TV series. The reruns got great ratings, and suddenly the Monkees were a viable proposition again. The band had a top 20 hit with a new single ("That Was Then, This Is Now", which featured only Dolenz and Tork), started playing reunion concerts, and recorded a new album, Pool It (which featured Dolenz, Tork, and Jones). The independently wealthy Nesmith was missing from Pool It and most of the concerts, but he returned in 1996 for the band's 30th anniversary swan songs as a quartet—Justus, the only Monkees album not to feature any outside musicians, songwriters or producers, and its follow-up TV special Hey, Hey, It's the Monkees. Since then, Creative Differences and Peter Tork's health problems (he was diagnosed with a rare form of head and neck cancer, Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma in 2009; he is now cancer-free) seemed to have destroyed any chance of another reunion. However, in the summer of 2011, Jones, Dolenz and Tork embarked on a hugely successful concert tour commemorating the band's 45th anniversary.Sadly, Davy Jones died of a sudden heart attack in 2012, making a full reunion impossible. Still, the Monkees' popularity and artistic legacy have remained strong to this day. It seems likely that they'll endure into the foreseeable future, not just as a memory, but as a functional band; Dolenz, Tork and Nesmith kept the legacy alive by touring in 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015. In 2016, Dolenz announced that he and Tork would not only tour to commemorate the band's 50th anniversary, but were working on a new album, Good Times!, which will be produced by Fountains of Wayne's Adam Schlesinger and include new songs by River Cuomo, Noel Gallagher and Ben Gibbard.

The Monkees' musical career contains examples of:
- Advertised Extra: On the debut album Peter's participation was limited to acoustic guitar on Mike's two songs and some backing vocals on a couple others. Even worse, on The Birds, The Bees & The Monkees his only contribution is the piano on "Daydream Believer".
- Alliterative Title: "Peter Percival Patterson's Pet Pig Porky"
- Bad Boss: Don Kirshner is arguably a Real Life example. Besides not letting the Monkees play or write their own material, he released their second album (More of the Monkees) without telling them, and finally got fired for breaking an agreement that each single should have one side written by band members.
- Bad to the Bone: "Pleasant Valley Sunday" has become a popular alternative to "Yakety Sax" for zany chase scenes.
- The Band Minus the Face:
- The 1970 album Changes featured only Micky and Davy; Mike and Peter had already left the band.
- Slight subversion in that Micky and Davy were the primary faces of the band. However, Nesmith and Tork were the professional musicians of the group (rather than actor/singers like Dolenz and Jones), and the ones who gave the group credibility with critics and peers. At any rate, the album flopped and the remaining Monkees split up soon afterward.
- According to Tork, after the Monkees were reduced to a duo, there was a joke in the trade papers that either Jones or Dolenz would quit and the last remaining member would continue on as "The Monkee". However, they'd already done that joke on TV show.
- Boy Band: Early example if not Trope Maker.
- Breakup Breakout: Micky actually achieved this when he joined The Monkees. He'd been the frontman for a band called The Missing Links (previously called Micky & The One-Nighters), but he got fired as a cost-saving measure. A few days later he auditioned for The Monkees.
- Call Back: "Randy Scouse Git" includes the line "four kings of EMI", a reference to The Beatles. Two years later in "Mommy and Daddy" one of the lines Micky ad-libs at the end is "kings of EMI."
- Censored Title:
- When "Randy Scouse Git" (named after one of the Catch Phrases of Alf Garnett, the lead character of Til Death Us Do Part, which was later remade by US TV as All in the Family) was recorded, the British record label wouldn't allow it to be released on the grounds that the title was "offensive"(?!), so they insisted that it be given an alternate title. Hence it was initially released as "Alternate Title". (It has since been restored to its proper title.)
- In British slang, randy means horny, Scouse is a term for people or things from Liverpool, and git means idiot, so it's actually pretty offensive,or at the very least inappropriate for what is marketed as an all ages act.
- Micky Dolenz, who wrote the song, reportedly had no idea what the phrase actually meant; he simply heard it on British television and thought it sounded cool.
- Christmas Songs: On the Christmas Episode they sang the traditional Spanish carol "Ríu Chíu" (a different recording of it was released on one of Rhino's Missing Links albums). Then in 1976 Micky, Davy and Peter reunited to record "Christmas Is My Time of Year", which was distributed to members of the Monkees fan club and also briefly made available to the public.
- Creator Cameo: Bob Rafelson plays the cocktail lounge-y piano in the intro section of "Don't Call on Me".
- Cut-and-Paste Suburb/Stepford Suburbia: The subject of "Pleasant Valley Sunday".
- Daydream Believer: One of the band's most popular songs is the Trope Namer.
- "Days of the Week" Song : "Saturday's Child".
- Excited Show Title!: Pool It!, Good Times!
- Expy: The Monkees Present is often considered their equivalent to The Beatles' The White Album. They're both Genre Roulette albums that showcase the individual members instead of being group efforts, and both albums end with lullabies ("Good Night" for The Beatles, "Pillow Time" for The Monkees).
- Fake Band:
- The Monkees were not allowed to play their own instruments on the show during the first season, until they overthrew label supervisor Don Kirshner.
- Peter Tork didn't even sing on their first record: He had to make do as being one of the five guitarists on Nesmith's composition "Papa Gene's Blues", which contained the only instrumental contribution from a Monkee until Kirshner was fired.
- Fake-Out Fade-Out: "Listen to The Band".
- Garfunkel: If anyone was the 'odd one out', it was Michael Nesmith for his lack of participation in much of their later endeavors and unwillingness to play along with their slapstick humour.
- Genre Throwback: Good Times! is shaping up to sound like a 1967 release.
- Gratuitous Panning: If you listen to the track "Zilch" with headphones on, it sounds like the four of them are surrounding you.
- Grey and Gray Morality: The subject of "Shades of Gray".
- Groupie Brigade: Truth in Television of course, but "Star Collector" was one of the first rock songs about a groupie.
- Important Haircut:
- During the psychedelic period, Micky stopped straightening his hair, while Davy cut his hair shorter.
- Borderline example: Mike, during the same period, stopped wearing his famous wool hat and grew killer sideburns.
- It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time: The band were fans of Jimi Hendrix and wanted him to open for them on their tour. Somehow, the managers of both parties actually set up the arrangement. Basically, The Monkees wanted street cred from hiring Hendrix, while Hendrix wanted mainstream exposure. This went about as well as you'd expect: whenever Hendrix went on stage, he was booed by Monkee fans. Both the Monkees and Hendrix were upset at this development and while there was no bad blood between them, Hendrix dropped out of the tour when "Purple Haze" started climbing the charts.
- Jerkass: Don Kirshner.
- Last Note Nightmare: "Pleasant Valley Sunday", "Star Collector".
- The Last Title: "Last Train To Clarksville".
- Lyrical Dissonance:
- "Cuddly Toy", written by Harry Nilsson, is a rather dark song, with lyrics that seem to be telling the latest victim of The Casanova to just get over it ("You're not the only cuddly toy/that was ever enjoyed by any boy... You're not the only choo-choo train/That was left out in the rain/The day after Santa came... I never told you that I loved no other/You must've dreamed it in your sleep"). You'd never know it by the bouncy, cheerful way Davy Jones and Micky Dolenz sing it, though (and Nilsson's own version turns the bounciness Up to Eleven). Additionally, the line "You're not the only cherry delight/That was left in the night/And gave up without a fight" implies that the woman was a virgin — and an easy "conquest" as well.
- "Goin' Down" is a fast-paced, upbeat song... about a guy having second thoughts after trying to drown himself.
- "Daddy's Song" is a brassy, upbeat song (until the last verse) in which the singer remembers the day his father walked out on his family.
- "Last Train To Clarksville" was written as a stealth commentary on The Vietnam War and the soldiers headed to Clarksdale, Tennesseee for basic training in the Army, before being sent to fight in the war. It brings a new meaning to "And I don't know if I'm ever coming home".
- The Man Behind The Band: Evidently, Don Kirshner thought this was his role in the group's career. Consider his liner notes for More of the Monkees; he devotes much more text to the team of veteran songwriters he assembled for the band than the band itself.
- Motor Mouth: Micky in "Goin' Down".
- My Nayme Is: Micky. It is not spelled with an E before the Y.
- Never Bareheaded: Mike in the wool hat days, Micky more recently.
- New Sound Album: Changes, not just for featuring only Micky and Davy, but the music shifted from the Beatles-inspired Genre Roulette style of all the previous albums to more of a uniform, slick pop sound with a pinch of Soul influence.
- Non-Appearing Title/Refrain from Assuming:
- Many of Mike's songs. Examples include "Good Clean Fun", "Daily Nightly", "Tapioca Tundra", and "Papa Gene's Blues", among many others. He adores this trope.
- "Randy Scouse Git" aka "Alternate Title" is a double dose of this.
- "For Pete's Sake"
- "Early Morning Blues and Greens", for a non-group-written example.
- One Woman Song: "Valleri" was a deliberate invocation of this trope; Don Kirshner asked Boyce and Hart to write a song with a girl's name in it.
- Patter Song: "Goin' Down".
- Protest Song: Their career started with a subtle example; as noted, "Last Train to Clarksville" was secretly about Vietnam, but from then on, the band stayed apolitical during the Kirshner era. After he was ousted, the band did several songs that had varying degrees of social commentary, including "Shades of Gray", "The Door Into Summer", "Daily Nightly", "Zor & Zam", and "Mommy & Daddy", which was so blatantly anti-authority that Executive Meddling forced Micky to tone down the lyrics. Justus added another example, "Admiral Mike".
- She Is All Grown Up: Basically what the song "Valleri" implies.
- The Something Song: "Porpoise Song" and "Daddy's Song" from Head and "French Song" from The Monkees Present.
- Spoken Word in Music:
- The simulated nightclub chatter at the beginning and end of "Don't Call on Me".
- Davy and Micky cracking jokes during "Gonna Buy Me a Dog".
- Davy recites the lyrics to "The Day We Fall In Love", and he also does spoken interjections in "Look Out (Here Comes Tomorrow)".
- Stealth Pun: The last word of the title of The Monkees Present is supposed to be pronounced "pree-SENT", but if you pronounce it as "PRES-sent" it also works in the sense of saying the album is a gift from The Monkees to you, and saying that, with Peter gone, Micky, David and Michael are "The Monkees present".
- Step Up to the Microphone: Peter sang full lead vocals on just 7 songs (plus one short spoken piece) from their studio albums, including the three reunion albums. He's better represented on rarities albums, bonus tracks and in live shows.
- Take That: A music publisher told Mike that he needed to write songs with memorable hooks which were "good clean fun". So he wrote a song called "Good Clean Fun" but didn't use the title anywhere in the lyrics.
- Train-Station Goodbye: The subject of "Last Train to Clarksville".
- Vocal Evolution: A surprising amount in 4 years. Mike had his tonsils removed in May 1967, and after that his voice was a touch deeper and less drawly. Davy was a natural baritone but was asked to sing at a raised pitch on the early albums, apparently so his voice matched his physical stature. On the later albums he didn't do that as much. Micky was exactly the opposite: starting around 1968 he preferred to sing at a higher pitch than he had before. If you knew nothing about The Monkees and heard a few later songs ("Zor and Zam"note , "As We Go Along", "Acapulco Sun"), you'd be excused for thinking they had a female member. Peter...well, his voiced stayed fairly constant, but his phrasing got more natural over the years.
- Vocal Tag Team: All four Monkees sang. With the exception of Peter, each one was featured as lead vocalist on at least one song from each album in which he participated.
- Who's on First?: In "Gonna Buy Me A Dog":Davy Jones: I just got back from Africa, y'know. I was playing cards with the natives.
Micky Dolenz: Oh, Zulus?
Davy: No, I usually won.
- Word Salad Lyrics:
- Several of Mike's lyrics during the psychedelic period.
- Mike's "Tapioca Tundra".
- Carole King's lyrics for "Porpoise Song" are Dewey Cox-level gibberish.
- Micky dabbled in this as well, with "Randy Scouse Git" and "Shorty Blackwell".
- Ye Olde Butchered English: "Do Not Ask For Love", a Michael Martin Murphey-penned song recorded for, but left off of, their debut album and later revived for the 33 1/3 Revolutions Per Monkee special:Thou makest me free then soon thou makest demands on meAnd I am not thy love, thou workest in me slaveryBut I shan't heed thee as beforeI prithee, do not ask for love once more

An ex-Greenwood Community High School teacher and coach who was arrested and charged with having a sexual relationship with a student had been seeing the teen for two months, according to court documents.
Tim Guilfoy, 36, has been charged with seven counts of child seduction. Guilfoy was charged for each of the sexual acts he performed with the student. He resigned from his job with the school during the weekend.
Under the law, adults can be charged with child seduction if they have a sexual relationship with someone between 16 and 18 years old and are in a position of trust or authority, including being a teacher.
Guilfoy and the student were discovered by police early Saturday morning in a pickup truck parked in the 8800 block of Madison Avenue, just north of the county line. Officers had been called to the area because someone thought the truck, which was running, looked suspicious. Police asked the driver twice to roll down the window and then saw Guilfoy and the student, who were both naked, according to Marion County court documents.
The female initially told police she was 18 but told officers she was 17 after they checked her identification, the documents said.
Guilfoy told police the girl was his student and that they had been having sex in the truck, the documents said.
The teen told police she knew Guilfoy because he was a teacher and the strength and conditioning coach at Greenwood Community High School. She also told police that she and Guilfoy started a relationship about two months ago while talking and texting on the phone and through social media. The teen said she sent Guilfoy sexually explicit messages and photos of her in her underwear, but he had indirectly encouraged her to do so, the documents said.
Guilfoy told investigators he and the student met in private on four occasions and didn't have sex until the third and fourth meeting, the documents said.
On Friday, Guilfoy and the teen talked in person and through text messages and agreed to meet after a basketball game to have sex, the documents said.
Guilfoy had been a teacher at Greenwood since 2000 and coached girls golf for several years.
Greenwood school officials were told of Guilfoy's arrest on Saturday. On Sunday, Guilfoy resigned from the school district.
He has been released from jail on $7,500 bond.

The NFL's Rookie Symposium left a lasting effect on Cardinals rookie Tyrann Mathieu. Mathieu, himself, has even had some off the field issues.
"I didn't look at it redundant, I looked at it as more people trying to help me. My process is a bit different than the rest of the rookies there. For me, it was an experience I needed," Mathieu said, via the team's website. "For me, the Symposium was real educational, inspiring and one of those reality checks and I've had a few of those since I've become an Arizona Cardinal."
