My Kitchen
My telephone used to belong to a family called the Simpsons. The hanging wine rack (a magnet) is from the Napa Valley. Lots of fridge magnets here, in fact, including the House Rules and the milk bottle. The white cutting board is a Corian sample from a kitchen showroom. The produce crate from Dallas Farmers Market was given to me by Laurie McGill when I was there.

Synopsis by William Silvester
Notes and links by Michele L. Worley
US hardcover edition: pages 313 - 336
UK paperback edition: pages 344 - 369
Saturday, 14 November -
Sunday, 22 November
In which an article by Rita Skeeter
fuels the taunts of the students against Harry and Hermione. Hermione tries
and fails to reunite Harry and Ron. Harry hides under his
Invisibility Cloak to accompany Hermione to Hogsmeade, but Moody sees him
anyway. Hagrid asks to meet Harry at midnight, when he reveals the dragons
of the First Task. Back in the common room, Sirius issues some warnings
through the fire.
Interesting facts and notes about the text of this chapter:
The chapter title is a little "previous", since it
calls our attention particularly to the Horntail among the dragons
of the first task before Harry draws the Horntail by lot.
The prospect of talking face to face with Sirius was all that
sustained Harry over the next fortnight
The article had appeared ten days ago
On the Saturday before the first task
or Hagrid had managed to buy another giant three-headed dog off a
stranger in a pub.
"Bong-sewer," said Hagrid
He was in Azkaban with me
Moody caught Karkaroff, put him into Azkaban in the first place.
You need about half-a-dozen wizards at a time to overcome a dragon -

Exceptional character moments:
Bertha Jorkins, who according

Molly Weasley, who according to
Charlie unquestioningly
accepted Rita's account of
Harry's supposed fits of
crying over his parents, even though she herself knows Harry far better
than Rita does. We're being shown that Molly has an unfortunate tendency
to trust what she reads in the paper even when she knows that the writer
is untrustworthy. This will be relevant later on when Hermione is the
target of one of Rita's attacks.

Memorable lines:
Harry was finding it difficult to think about the future at all,
he felt as if his whole life had been leading up to, and would
finish with, the first task...
Quite apart from liking to get Quidditch terms correct, it caused
him another pang to imagine Ron's expression if he could have
heard Hermione talking about Wonky Faints.
It is a strange thing, but when you are dreading something, and
would give anything to slow down time, it has a disobliging habit
of speeding up.

The record-breaking amount of tickets sold for "Ride Along" already proved Kevin Hart was funny, along with a few stand-up comedy DVDs "Let Me Explain," "Laugh at My Pain" and "Seriously Funny," and a fake reality show "Real Husbands of Hollywood."
But it takes a special type of woman to be able to go toe-to-toe with a comedian like this in the romantic comedy remake of "About Last Night." And even though Regina Hall played the love interest (Candace) of TV show host Terrence Jenkins' character Michael in the 2012 film "Think Like a Man," viewers still knew Hall was funny around Hart from watching her during interviews like this one. It was easy to believe she'd do well as Joan in the Valentine's Day film.
Some women bring out the sex appeal in comedians, such as Judith Scott, who played the love interest of the late Bernie Mac's character Percy Jones in the 2005 remake of "Guess Who."
But in the Valentine's Day remake of 1986's "About Last Night," Hall shot for straight-up comedy with Kevin Hart's character Bernie and succeeded. Hart has already bragged on talk shows, such as "Ellen," about several sex scenes in the film. And yes, there are sex scenes. Strange ones that (literally) include chickenheads. And there's a level of funny that must be recognized to pull off these wacky stunts.
The plot of "About Last Night" is nothing new: Two people date and introduce their mutual, lonely friends to each other. Bernie and Joan break up, and Danny (played by Michael Ealy) and Debbie (played by Joy Bryant) fall madly in love with each other. They work their way from sex buddies to a relationship to moving in together and wonder have they moved too fast or is this relationship real.
The beauty of this film is since there's so much comedy involved, it's almost impossible for the film to be considered too sappy for guys. But even if it is, the film came out on Valentine's Day so many guys had to bite the bullet and see the film anyway. Hart being in the film probably softened the initial bias, but seeing the film could make male and female moviegoers want to come back for a repeat visit.
While Michael Ealy is notorious for playing the brooding, sexy actor (without even trying to be), his role in the 2012 comedy TV show "Common Law" proved he had a surprisingly good comedic side. There were moments in the romantic comedy where he was as funny as Hart and Hill, specifically when Danny embraced the role of Ike Turner at a costume party.
Even Bryant showed off a little bit of her funny side during a Thanksgiving dinner gone wrong. What works for this film is all of the actors are believable, cute enough to earn those "awe" moments and fun enough to want the couples to succeed. Dog lovers' hearts will do an extra thump-thump halfway through the film, too. Overall, it's worth a Valentine's Day date and beyond.

WRIT 118.401 | Writing Internet Culture
Alan Benson | Fall 2013 | Sept 3 - Nov 10 | TTh 3:30-4:45 PM
"Every day, [some large number] of college-aged Americans use a [computer/tablet/smartphone/other tech] to do [some activity]. What are the implications for [the country/the economy/their brains/their moral fiber/some other issue]." — [Large media organization and/or polling company]
"Oh yeah? Well, [meme image]!" — Internet users
Americans love using the internet, almost as much as we like talking about how much we love using the internet. In the past few years, we've been told that the internet makes us more connected, less friendly, more politically active, more politically passive, more engaged, less empathetic—the global network is either making us better people or turning us into stupid, lonely, meme-swapping pirates. In this Blugold Seminar, we examine the discourse surrounding your generation—the millennials/Gen Y/the Trophy Generation—as well as the discourse your generation is, um, generating. Readings include essays, TED talks, short films, and infographics that examine your generation, its engagement with technology, and the uses (and misuses) of rhetoric and argumentation online. This course is limited to first-year students and includes a mentor.
tl;dr: The Internet is Serious Business in this writing class for first-year students.

Reese Witherspoon's Accident: Are Pedestrians Really In Growing Danger?
Reese Witherspoon, the actress known for roles in diverse films from "Freeway" and "Legally Blonde" to "Walk the Line," suffered minor injuries when she was hit by a car while jogging in Santa Monica, Calif. A police spokesman said the 84-year-old woman driving the car was charged with failing to yield to a pedestrian in a crosswalk.
The case focuses attention on pedestrians' fear of possibly being hit by cars, and the anger we tend to feel when drivers fail to yield, block crosswalks or come too close to us while we are walking. Increased awareness of — and frustration with — the many forms of driver distraction from smartphones to screaming children has reinforced a perception that streets are becoming more dangerous for pedestrians.
However, statistics indicate cars are less of a threat to walkers today than ever, and cars kill far fewer pedestrians than they used to. Indeed, through decades of general decline in the number of traffic deaths, pedestrian fatalities have decreased at a faster rate compared with other traffic deaths.
Pedestrian fatalities in the U.S. totaled 4,092 in 2009, the most recent year for which full data are available. The total was 4,763 in 2000 and 8,070 in 1980. Total traffic fatalities fell to 33,808 in 2009 from 41,945 in 2000 and 51,091 in 1980.
Still, the Witherspoon incident may be indicative of a changing tide in the relationship between cars and pedestrians. According to the Governor's Highway Safety Association, a state-by-state study shows pedestrian fatalities increased by seven, from 1,884 to 1,891, in the first six months of 2010.
The safety group says the increase, though slight, is of concern in part because overall traffic fatalities declined 8% in the same period according to preliminary estimates. The group attributes the increase in part to greater pedestrian exposure resulting from fitness pursuits like walking and jogging.

It was the summer of 1961, and Bob Cullum, the co-founder of Tom Thumb, had a problem.
Two months earlier, the federal court had ordered Dallas to begin integration of its public schools. In other major cities, integration had been accompanied by ugly scenes and violent confrontations. The recent televised pictures from New Orleans were particularly disgusting, with white mothers cursing and spitting on innocent black children as they walked between federal marshals into their new classrooms.
Dallas would be different, the business community decreed. The Dallas Citizens Council gave Cullum the job of making sure integration in Dallas happened quietly, smoothly, and peacefully.
But nobody told Joe Walton*. Or rather, they had told him, but he wasn't paying any attention. Walton made himself a highly visible member of the school board by demanding the district use every means possible to fight integration. It seemed everywhere Cullum turned there was Walton on radio, television, and in the newspapers announcing that white and black children would never mix.
With the new court order in hand, Cullum had been to see Walton twice at his office supply company. Both times Walton rebuffed him, had seemed to enjoy rebuffing him, telling Cullum that God's law stood above human law, and God's law was that the races were to remain apart. Mixing in schools would lead to miscegenation; miscegenation would lead to mixed children. Mixed children would lead to America's doom at the hand of an angry God.
As far as Cullum was concerned, Walton could believe whatever he wanted. Cullum had heard plenty of the same from his own friends. The problem with Walton was that he planned to do something about it. He was threatening to turn out the entire white population of Dallas to stop integration in its tracks on the opening day of school.
The Citizens Council had its levers for situations like this. Its bank members controlled 90 percent of the business loans in the city. But a Bible-thumper like Walton had to be handled with kid gloves. A direct threat might send him off the cliff.
Cullum decided there was a better approach. Give Walton a little wiggle room, but keep the hard stick handy in case he needed a thwack.
He asked Walton if he would join him for lunch with the three leading black preachers in town. Surely Walton wasn't afraid to hear the other side. Walton said he wasn't afraid at all. In fact, he thought he could get the preachers to agree with him. He was merely following what Scripture said.
Cullum set up the meeting at Elsie's Grill Restaurant in South Dallas. He invited his friend John Stemmons and Walton's personal banker, and told them what he wanted them to do.
The lunch took place on a hot July afternoon. Elsie's was not air-conditioned, and the kitchen was open to the small dining area. As the men arrived, each took off his suit coat and put it on the back of his chair. By the time Cullum finished his introductions, the men's ties were loosened and sleeves rolled up.
The three preachers took turns making their case to Walton. One brought his daughter's history textbook, a tattered 1946 edition. They described the poor condition of black schools, with peeling paint and bad plumbing. While they talked, Cullum nodded encouragingly, looking at Walton every now and then to measure the effect.
Meanwhile, Stemmons and the banker sat stone-faced, their eyes glued on Walton. The fried chicken was served, a hot steaming basket. Everyone else picked up the greasy pieces with their fingers, but Stemmons pushed his basket aside and kept his gaze squarely on Walton. Finally, after Walton had taken three or four bites, Stemmons leaned his 6-foot-4 frame across the table.
"The United States of America has told us we've got to integrate our schools, and by damn, that's just what we're going to do. We will not let Dallas show up on national television because of some commotion. You try it, and I will run you down."
It became known as the Dallas way. If it's good for Dallas, let's get it done—quietly. If there is a fight brewing, let's head it off—quietly.
Walton looked at his banker. The banker dipped his head in agreement. Walton was not dumb. He knew why Stemmons and his banker were there. He looked at Cullum. "Now, Joe," Cullum said soothingly, "I want to think about what these fine pastors have told you. Surely you can see that it is unfair and unjust and has to stop." Walton gave an almost imperceptible nod. The meeting was over.
Outside, once everyone left, Stemmons put his hand on Cullum's shoulder. "I have one question. Why in the hell did we have to do that at Elsie's?"
"John, your problem is you don't understand human beings," Cullum said. "Elsie makes the greasiest fried chicken in Dallas. Have you ever heard a man argue for segregation to three black preachers while sweating like a pig with grease all over his face?"
On September 6, 1961, Dallas schools integrated without incident.
The Dallas establishment under Mercantile Bank founder R.L. Thornton led Dallas during the postwar boom, and, in 1963, it still reigned benignly over the city it built. By the 1960s, younger men in middle age like Cullum, Stemmons, and Aston had replaced the older ruling troika of bankers—Mercantile's Thornton, Republic's Fred Florence, and First National's Nate Adams. The transition had been smooth, and the financial resources of the business community allowed it to mostly handpick a city council and school board that were elected at large.
The men who first organized the Dallas business community were children of the Progressive Era. For more than a decade before organizing formally as the Dallas Citizens Council, they led campaigns for municipal reform and big projects to build Dallas. In short order, they replaced the old and corrupt commissioner's form of government with a progressive city manager system, rechanneled the Trinity River to stop the flooding that impeded development, cleaned up the gambling and prostitution that followed the 1930s oil boom, and caused the city to invest heavily in sewer, street, and highway infrastructure to accommodate its growth.
In later years, they turned conservative, as most movements do. Their job was to keep Dallas safe for business. Every major business owner was a member, and almost every business was local. If Dallas grew, their businesses grew. Thornton set their mission early: instead of fighting over whose slice of the pie was bigger, their job was to make the pie bigger.
From 1940 to 1960, the city mushroomed from a population of 295,000 to 680,000. Growth produced tensions. Newcomers were increasingly wary of decision-making that seemed to benefit only the decision-makers, if appreciative of the foresight that enabled their new city to prosper. Even longtime citizens grumbled about a city run from behind closed doors. But the men who ran the city were not tone-deaf. Thornton himself famously stood most weekdays at the corner of Main and Ervay streets to talk to citizens as they walked by. When outsiders threatened it, the tight-knit group did not try to crush them. Instead, they invited the outsiders inside.
In 1959, Earle Cabell—son of a mayor, grandson of another mayor—rebelled and ran against Thornton's re-election. He argued that it was time to get the city moving again. The business establishment said Cabell should wait his turn, and the citizens apparently agreed, re-electing the mayor by a wide margin. When Cabell ran again in 1961, the business community made sure he won.
On another front in 1959, NAACP organizer Juanita Craft launched a protest movement to integrate Dallas lunch counters and public venues. In 1944, Craft had been the first black woman to vote in Dallas County. When she first started her protests, outside a Woolworth's on Main Street, the two daily newspapers did not choose to take notice for fear of stirring up segregationists. But when school integration was ordered in 1961, the Dallas Citizens Council quietly suggested that every public business should follow suit. On one Monday morning in September, every business downtown complied. (Fourteen years later, with new court-imposed single-member districts, Juanita Craft was elected to the city council.)
It became known as the Dallas Way. If it's good for Dallas, let's get it done—quietly. If there is a fight brewing, let's head it off—quietly. If some folks are insistent, invite them to Elsie's, and let's work it out over some greasy fried chicken.
Even as it worked to keep things behind the scenes, there were unpleasant surprises. At a White House luncheon for publishers in the fall of 1961, Dallas Morning News publisher Ted Dealey told President John F. Kennedy to his face that he needed to "get off Caroline's tricycle" and start leading the country. The insult to the president made every newspaper in the country, and it made Dallas leaders wince, as they were trying to get the president's approval for a new federal courthouse in downtown Dallas.
Worse embarrassment was to come. In October 1963, Ambassador to the United Nations Adlai Stevenson came to town to promote America's role in the world organization. Right-wing protesters had organized to disrupt Stevenson's speech and then assaulted him on his way out. The incident made the nightly news on all three national networks. Stevenson advised the president to cancel his upcoming trip to Dallas.
That was too much. The Dallas leadership sprang into action.
The White House was assured that Dallas was ready and able to welcome the president with true Texas hospitality. Every police officer was called in for duty. Potential protestors were warned they would be arrested on the spot. Businesses were instructed to give their employees the day off to swell the crowds and to give the president a rousing reception. A huge luncheon to be attended by every major figure in the city was laid out at Dallas' largest public space, Trammell Crow's Trade Mart on Stemmons Freeway. Every detail was planned down to the last second. With one visit on one day, Dallas would reverse these minor bouts of bad publicity and show the nation its better side.
None of the men were happy, but Thornton was heartbroken. All he had worked to build for 30 years had been wiped out by Lee Harvey Oswald's bullet.
In 1968, I got an opportunity to see the Dallas Way, what happened when the city's leadership sprang into action.
A sophomore at the University of Texas, I was called into the dean's office one day in early May. In April, Martin Luther King Jr. had been assassinated, which led to a wave of riots in many American cities. Suddenly, black teenagers became a focus of national attention. Manpower Inc., a temporary workforce supplier, had established a program for teenage summer employment in Milwaukee a few years earlier. This program was now being rushed into as many large cities as possible. The dean asked me if I would take Dallas. It paid $400 a month. I said yes.
I flew to Milwaukee for training and to receive a thick notebook of everything I needed to do. Dallas was targeted for 5,000 summer jobs, and I was the 19-year-old who was supposed to supply them.
The first instruction was to enlist the support of local business leaders. I didn't know any local business leaders. But I knew that Stemmons Freeway was named after John Stemmons (it wasn't; it was named after his father, Storey). So I called him.
To my surprise, he answered the phone. I gave him a three-minute rundown on the program and asked to meet him. He told me to be in Dallas the following Wednesday for lunch with him at the City Club. I bought a tie, and on Wednesday drove my Volkswagen up to Dallas.
At the City Club atop Republic Tower, I asked the receptionist for John Stemmons. The manager instantly appeared and ushered me down a hallway away from the dining room. He pulled open two large doors, and I found myself standing at the back of a horseshoe table where about 40 men were having lunch and arguing among themselves. At the far end in the middle of the cross table, a very large man motioned me to come forward and sit next to him. I figured that was John Stemmons.
It was, and he was guiding the discussion. As I sat down to his right, a plate was placed in front of me, and in an aside, he said, "Eat. You're next."
A few minutes later, Stemmons told me to stand and launched from his seat into an exact repetition of what I told him on the phone. He asked me to add more, which I did, and said, "I told you to bring a one-page checklist. Did you bring it?" I fumbled for the checklist, which I typed the night before and folded into my pocket. He unfolded it, put on his glasses, and looked up at the men. "This is good for Dallas, so we're going to do it. Got a lot of things here that need to be done fast." He then started running down the checklist.
"Office space near downtown on a bus route. Who's got that? You? How many square feet?" He looked at me. "That enough?" I said yes. "Done."
"Twenty telephones. Southwestern Bell?" A man raised his hand. "Done."
"Convention Center for first Saturday in June for the job fair." Another man raised his hand. "Done."
"Six chartered buses. Mobil Oil, you pay for that?" A man nodded. "Done."
"Newspaper ads." He peered over his glasses at two men seated side by side. "Done."
And on he went. Forty single-spaced items on my pocket-folded and hand-typed checklist were committed to while dessert was being served.
The program in Dallas—launched in three weeks—successfully placed 12,000 Dallas high school students in summer jobs, 80 percent of whom were minority and 60 percent of whom had never before held a job.
In January 1964, a group of men in hats and heavy overcoats emerged from the Mercantile Bank Building and stepped into waiting cars. The group included the chairmen of the three major banks, the presidents of the two utility companies, and several other notable citizens. They waited patiently as the elderly R.L. Thornton walked with the help of a cane to the lead car (he would die later in the year).
None of the men were happy, but Thornton was heartbroken. All he had worked to build for 30 years had been wiped out by Lee Harvey Oswald's bullet. The aftermath of the president's assassination had been brutal. The nation's most important media dubbed Dallas "the City of Hate." Walter Cronkite on CBS and Huntley-Brinkley on NBC reran film of the Stevenson incident countless times. Newspaper columnists coast to coast speculated on how paranoia and fear in the city created a climate that made the assassination possible. Dallas was the city that killed Kennedy. Its citizens were just as guilty as the assassin. Business deals dried up. Dallas tourists in New York and Europe were insulted or refused service. The effect was traumatizing. Bombarded, the city curled up into a collective fetal position.
The cavalcade of cars made its way up Central Expressway, heading north. To Thornton's thinking, it was time for another radical move, like back in the day when he talked his fellow Dallas bankers into going after the Texas Centennial Exposition. That one event had attracted nearly 7 million visitors to Dallas in 1936 and set the stage for the city's dramatic postwar growth.
The cars were headed to Texas Instruments. The men intended to talk its chairman, J. Erik Jonsson, into becoming mayor.
Texas Instruments in the 1960s was an international phenomenon, the leading technological company of the day, the world's pioneer in transistors (it invented, produced, and sold the first transistor radios), semiconductors, and integrated circuits.
Although the TI founders—Erik Jonsson, Eugene McDermott, Patrick Haggerty, and Cecil Green—had been very generous in their support of Dallas charities, they were not of the same breed as the men in the cars. They weren't even from Texas. They hailed from New York, North Dakota, and Manchester, England. They were unaccustomed to the back-slapping, old-school mode of doing business in Dallas, and they were completely divorced from the Southern traditions the other men had grown up by. Nor did their business depend on Dallas as the other men's businesses did. Their backgrounds and their interests—indeed, their self-interest—placed them apart from the Dallas norm. And that, Thornton and his younger colleagues had decided, was exactly what Dallas needed.
When the men from downtown trooped into his conference room at TI on that January afternoon, Jonsson was 63 years old. He worked for the company he co-founded for 34 years and served as either its president or chairman for 13. Along with General Motors and General Electric, TI was one of the most successful companies in the world. (In 1975, when Fortuneestablished its Business Hall of Fame, Jonsson was among the first inductees, along with such figures as Alexander Graham Bell, Thomas Edison, and J. Pierpont Morgan.) He was, on this day, at the pinnacle of his business career.
But the moment was right for Jonsson. He needed a new challenge, and this one was enormous. He was interested. There was only one problem, as he saw it. Dallas already had a mayor.
That was not a problem, the men assured him. In fact, it was an opportunity. They would get Earle Cabell to step down by offering him the Congressional seat currently occupied by right-wing Republican Bruce Alger. Cabell was popular. He would beat Alger, thereby eliminating an embarrassment that had plagued them for years. Meanwhile, the mayor's job would be open, and the city council would fill it by electing Jonsson. Simple as pie. Two birds with one stone.
Jonsson asked for time to think it over, and the men readily agreed. Outside, gathering by their cars for the return trip downtown, Thornton pronounced his verdict. "Done."
When Jonsson did call back with his yes, he asked for two months to put his affairs in order at TI. Fair enough was the answer. But Jonsson didn't need the time at TI; his co-founders had already implored him to stay on as chairman, even in a reduced role. Instead, Jonsson, in typical engineering fashion, had already begun his research. He contacted and talked with urban specialists across the country. Jonsson was smart enough, successful enough, and, one might add, humble enough to know what he did not know. He wanted two months to learn how cities worked.
He enlisted as his teacher the Boston-born, Harvard-educated Vincent Ponte, recently relocated to Montreal and at the head of everyone's lists as the top urban designer of the day. Believing that seeing is better than hearing, Ponte arranged a whirlwind tour for Jonsson of the world's major cities, beginning with the new (the rebuilt Tokyo and Singapore) and ending with the old (London, Paris, Rome, and Athens). Together, they intended to answer a single question, "What makes a city great?"
Jonsson would later recount that it was standing on his hotel balcony one night in Athens, overlooking the ancient port of Piraeus, that he understood what each of the cities he visited had in common. Each was a port city.
Dallas was landlocked. In fact, it is one of the largest landlocked cities in the world. If Dallas was to make itself a port, it would have to be an airport.
Back home, he discovered that the Federal Aviation Administration had been badgering Dallas and Fort Worth for years to build a regional airport. It became his first order of business. He negotiated a deal that had eluded the FAA and the business leaderships of both cities for two decades. DFW Airport would open nine years later.
Jonsson also quickly decided that a new Dallas model of leadership was needed. In the fall of 1964, he organized Goals for Dallas, bringing together a broad range of citizens who had never before been invited into the halls of power in Dallas, including people of color, women, academics, and North Dallas Republicans. Through a series of conferences and meetings, these participants hammered together a list of priorities to guide the new mayor in transforming the city. Their conclusions were published in book form and widely distributed for public discussion. With that, Jonsson went to work.
The Dallas North Tollway opened in 1968. (The dip a driver experiences as the Tollway enters Highland Park is the concession Jonsson made to be able to run his new project through the township.) The new central library opened in 1982. The underground pedestrian network began construction in 1966. One of the TI founder's earlier projects, the Center for Advanced Studies, was adopted into the UT system in 1969, renamed the University of Texas at Dallas. A new, expanded, and renamed Dallas Convention Center opened in 1973. The new City Hall opened in 1977, designed by Vincent Ponte's mentor, I.M. Pei. Land for the Dallas Arts Center was designated north of downtown in 1978.
Jonsson also decided that a new Dallas model of leadership was needed. Being an outsider, he brought in outsiders.
No one man had such an effect on a major city in such a short amount of time since Baron Haussmann reorganized the streets of Paris in the 1860s.
Throughout his eight years as mayor—re-elected three times with overwhelming majorities—Jonsson operated as an inclusionary dictator. Being an outsider, he brought in outsiders. Knowing that genius can come from anywhere, he listened to everybody. Tough to the core (you don't build America's first major high-tech company with hugs and kisses), he thought like an engineer, worked a room like a politician, and somehow enabled people to see possibilities in dreams.
Shaken to its core by the assassination of President Kennedy, the Dallas Citizens Council had handed over the keys to the city, and it would never get them back.
That's not to say that the old Dallas establishment faded into the woodwork. It supported Jonsson to the hilt, just as it had promised to do in that fateful January meeting at Texas Instruments. Deeply conservative, they had managed the city's finances like an old-fashioned banker's balance sheet. But Jonsson was a builder of empires, and investment was his life's blood. The old guard acquiesced. If he wanted an airport, he got an airport. If he wanted a bond issue for a new project, he got a bond issue. Even though power was now dispersing into newer centers around the city—neighborhood groups, the black community to the south, the emergent Republican Party to the north—the downtown establishment still retained its financial muscle. It could make things happen. And it could still stop things in their tracks.
In 1976, two years after it started, D Magazine ran an editorial on—what else?—the Dallas school district and its flamboyant and deeply flawed superintendent, Nolan Estes. Within days of the magazine hitting the newsstand, I received a phone call from Alex Bickley of the Dallas Citizens Council. "A number of people have called," he reported, "and they are not happy with that editorial. It looks bad for the city, and that's not the Dallas Way. It would be best if you would not write something like that again."
The phone call made me angry because it told me the point of the article had been lost on the people who could do something about it. So I wrote another editorial for the next issue. This time the phone call came from the president of Sanger-Harris, the department store that was our largest advertiser. He was clearly embarrassed, but he used words nearly identical to Bickley's. "I've received a number of phone calls. Maybe you want to reconsider your approach on this."
That the Dallas Citizens Council was attempting to interfere with my business instead of tackling the disaster on Ross Street infuriated me. I wrote a third editorial, and this time the call came from John Stemmons. "Son," he said in that sonorous voice he used in his most persuasive moments, "it's been a long time since you and I have talked. Why don't you come down here for bourbon this afternoon? Say, 4 o'clock. Sharp."
So that afternoon I drove to the Stemmons Towers on Stemmons Freeway to meet John Stemmons. The receptionist on the top floor opened the doors to usher me into his huge office with its plate glass window perfectly framing downtown Dallas. As I walked in, the theme from Fiddler on the Roof suddenly blared from four speakers in each of the office's corners: "Tra-di-tion!" "Tra-di-tion!"
I broke out laughing. At his desk on the far end of the room sat John Stemmons, and he was laughing, too. He switched off the recording and motioned me to sit. On the desk, a glass of amber-colored liquor was waiting for me.
He raised his glass and said, "I told those old biddies that there wasn't a damned thing any of them could do to stop you, so why piss you off by trying? I told them, that boy loves Dallas, so instead of bothering him, maybe you ought to listen to him."
Three weeks later, Superintendent Nolan Estes resigned to take a professorship at the University of Texas at Austin, effective immediately.
It was the Dallas Way. And I have to admit, I miss it.

Tony Wang, Chairman of Elec-Tech commented, "As we have previously stated, our goal is to become one of the top three LED companies by output and sales revenue in China within two years, and we have an aggressive plan to achieve this goal. By adding Veeco's new multi-chamber MaxBright, we expect to be able to compete in a very high-production environment and drive down the cost of LEDs. We are excited by what we have seen with MaxBright in terms of its cost-of-ownership model, ease-of-use, and the great footprint advantage it will offer us in our fab."
Mr. Wang added, "When we selected Veeco last year as our primary equipment supplier, it was not just because of the success of the K465i, but also because of the roadmap they shared with us on the new multi-reactor MaxBright system. Also, Veeco's service and support has been excellent, so we have a lot of confidence giving them these additional orders for our capacity ramp."
William J. Miller, Executive Vice President, Veeco LED & Solar added, "Elec-Tech is moving fast to ramp capacity and gain share in the LED market. We are pleased to be able to support this ramp with our latest generation MaxBright product."

As the identity of the enigmatic producer behind Answer Code Request was revealed to be Patrick Gräser, at least some of the buzz was on the right path. Before Answer Code Request became his project to be in 2010, he spent his youth in the same small hometown near Berlin as Marcel Dettmann and Marcel Fengler, sharing their experiences of hitting the big city as a teenager, in search of the records and clubs that formed the tradition in the 90's, then taking up DJing and producing shortly after, and sticking with it, and being successful with it as well. If you listen to the music of Answer Code Request it all fits together.
Answer Code Request's debut LP 'Code' is Out Now via Ostgut Ton.

The audio could have been omitted. The language detracted from the beauty of the calving :(

I think the focus of the piece was the PANIC on board, not the beauty of the calving. Which btw was awesome! Feel sorry for the injury as well.

We were there when the glacier calved but on a much smaller boat. We were about 1/4 mile from the glacier but did not see the boat in this video. I wonder how close they were. We sustained no injuries. The captain of the skiff we were on high-tailed it away as soon as he realized the magnitude of what had happened. He estimated the waves – yes, plural, to be about 12 feet. The calving was gorgeous. Also, the video doesn't do the glacier justice since it just shows a very small part of it.

The Solar Sox scored 11 times in their first four turns at bat as they cruised to a 13-3 victory over the Desert Dogs.
Sammy Solis got the start and the win, tossing three and 2/3rds scoreless innings with three hits and a walk allowed. The 25-y.o. southpaw struck out two in his first AFL start since November 2011.
Adrian Nieto got the start behind the plate and went 1-for-2 with a double and a run scored. The 23-y.o. drove in a run with a sacrifice fly and had no baserunners attempt to steal against him.
Steve Souza Jr. started in right field and went 1-for-5, grounding into a double play, but stealing two bases. He made four putouts in the field.
Robert Benincasa pitched the 9th for the Solar Sox but was greeted with a solo HR to the first batter he faced. He retired three of the next four batters he faced, issuing a one-out walk and striking out a batter.
The Solar Sox hit the road tonight as they visit the Salt River Rafters. Matt Purke is scheduled to make the start for Mesa.

Benincasa with the rare one sweep:
I really like what Souza brings to the field. For two years in a row now he has produced with five tool ability. I realize he has had his issues and appears to have injury problems as well. But, to me, he certainly seems to be the real thing, despite a lack of press a la Goodwin and Taylor. What have I missed here, Luke, or anybody else who has actually seen him play?
I still like the potential in a bullpen down the orad with Travis Henke and Benincasa!!!
Souza seems like a young kid who is destined to spend much time under the shadow/influence of Werth, whose
value continues to play out in more mentoring value than on field. ( Not that his on field value is not too shabby!!!)

Encyclopedia of Jazz Musicians
Frith, Fred
Multi-Instrumentalist Fred Frith combines jazz, classical and rock influences into a sonic concept which is at times abrasive, and at times beautiful. A longtime collaborator of saxophonist John Zorn, Frith's music challenges accepted notions of what can be achieved with improvisational music.
Fred Frith was born on February 17, 1949 in Heathfield, Sussex, England. Fred was born into a musical household with his father being a proficient pianist and avid music fan. Fred began studying music at the age of five when he began taking violin lessons. During this time, Fred sang in the church choir and began to teach himself the piano, building upon his aural skills.
By time he was thirteen years old, Frith began to switch his focus towards the guitar after seeing an instrumental rock group perform. Fred taught himself the fundamentals of the guitar from a book and set to form his own band.
Soon after, Frith formed his first band The Chaperones, which covered songs by The Beatles and The Ventures. By 1964, American blues became a popular genre to the youth of England with bands such as The Rolling Stones developing their own brand of the blues. Fred soon became thrilled by this music as well as the music of guitarist Django Reinhardt. Shortly after, The Chaperones began to play more blues-based material that better reflected his tastes.
Upon graduating from high school in 1967, Frith enrolled at Cambridge University where he began to play guitar at local folk clubs. Studying English literature, Fred took advantage of the artistic atmosphere of Cambridge and performed with blues bands, studied flamenco guitar and composed music for experimental theater.
Along with blues, rock, and folk music Frith was listening to at the time, Frith found a big influence in the music of avant-garde composer John Cage. Cage was experimenting with obscuring the line between noise and music, which appealed greatly to Fred. During this time, Fred became interested in Middle Eastern music, adding the style to his future work.
In 1968, Frith formed the band Henry Cow with saxophonist and fellow Cambridge student Tim Hodgkinson after meeting in a local blues club. The avant-garde rock band was initially founded to examine musical and political concepts. Both Frith and Hodgkinson had like-minded approaches to music and found their mutual thoughts original. Whereas guitar was his main instrument, he also played bass, piano, and violin while in Henry Cow.
Soon, Henry Cow and several other like-minded bands formed a collective entitled "Rock in Opposition" with Henry Cow at the heart of the group. The organization encompassed a group of bands in the late 1970s that were bonded in their resistance to the music business and their practices. Henry Cow remained together for ten years and recorded six albums. The group's sound inspired a new generation of experimental rock music. In 1970, Fred earned his BA from Cambridge, later obtaining his MA in English Literature from Cambridge in 1974.
In 1973, Henry Cow released the album Leg End featuring the song "Nirvana For Mice," which ended up being one of their most famous songs. On "Nirvana For Mice," Frith constructs an arrangement that evokes the spirit that one might find in the work of composer Frank Zappa. Frith's performance features angular lines interspersed between Hodgkinson's even flowing movement of notes. The contrasting performances allow the maximum operation of harmony and color.
About the time that Henry Cow released its 1974 album Unrest, Frith recorded the first of several solo improvisational records. Entitled Guitar Solos, the album included eight songs that were recorded without accompaniment on what is known as a "prepared guitar," which is a guitar that has objects between the fret board and strings that alter the sound of the guitar.
On "No Birds," Frith crafts a soothing atmosphere using a combination of reverb, feedback and guitar pedals. Fred uses multi-layered guitar tracks to satisfy several harmonic ideas, resulting in a dramatic sonic landscape. His use of layering different guitar sounds almost gives the illusion of a full ensemble performing.
Upon its release, Guitar Solos received praise for its experimental use of the guitar. Frith recorded two more albums in the Guitar Solo series including Guitar Solos 2 in 1976, which featured guitarists Derek Bailey, G.F Fitzgerald, and Hans Reichel and 1979's Guitar Solos 3. The success of the album brought Frith to the attention of composer Brian Eno with Frith contributing to 1977's Before and After Science and 1978's Music for Films.
In 1978, Henry Cow decided to disband and soon after, Frith formed a group entitled Art Bears with vocalist Dagmar Krause and Henry Cow drummer Chris Cutler. The group's music mirrored a politically infused world-view that was seen as pessimistic. The group went on to release 1978's Hopes and Fears, 1979's Winter Songs and 1981's The World As It Is Today before deciding to disband due to disagreements over where their music was headed.
In 1979, Frith recorded Gravity, which many saw as his strongest work. Unlike the experimental music he had become known for, Gravity displayed a different side of Frith by including different styles of music from around the world. The same year, Fred moved to New York City.
The following year, Fred formed the band Massacre with bassist Bill Laswell and drummer Fred Maher. The group's music was often strident and powerful, which made exemplars of that era's "downtown" art music scene. The group released one album, Killing Tim,e before disbanding
Frith followed Gravity with Speechless in 1981 and Cheap at Half the Price in 1983. In 1982, Frith formed the group Skeleton Crew with cellist Tom Cora. The group was known for their completely live improvisations and extensive touring. In 1984, the group released Learn to Talk and The Country of Blinds in 1986.
In 1988, Frith joined alto saxophonist John Zorn in forming the band Naked City, which incorporated elements of jazz, heavy metal and punk rock. Performing on the bass guitar, Frith and Zorn were joined by drummer Joey Baron, guitarist Bill Frisell and pianist Wayne Horvitz. The following year, the band released a self-titled album.
On "The James Bond Theme," Frith readily blends aggression and swing into a freewheeling blend that lends itself perfectly to this conceptual version of the famous theme song. Frith's combination of different textures calls to mind some of the soloing qualities of saxophonist Eric Dolphy. The unpredictability of Frith's performance adds more power and strength to the overall song. Throughout this rambunctious arrangement, Frith weaves in and out of the instrumentation ensuring a link between the rhythm and harmony.
1988 also saw the release of The Technology of Tears, which featured Zorn and trombonist Jim Staley. He also expanded his composition experience by continuing to compose music for film as well as dance and theater troupes. In 1989, Frith formed the group Keep The Dog featuring guitarist Rene Lussier, pianist Zeena Parkins, and percussionist Kevin Norton. The group toured extensively throughout Europe ultimately breaking up in 1991.
Fred was the subject of a documentary in 1990, entitled Step Across the Border, which chronicled his career. He also released a soundtrack to the movie of the same title. By 1995, Frith moved to Germany with his wife and children. During this time, Frith was associated with the L'Ecole Nationale de Musique, a music conservatory in Villeurbanne, France. From the years 1994-1996, Fred was their composer in residence.
Frith moved back to the United States in 1997 when he accepted a position in the music department of Mills College in Oakland, California. Two years later, he was made the "Luther B. Merchant Professor of Composition" where his responsibilities also include teaching contemporary performance and improvisation.
In 2002, Frith established "Fred Records," his own record label with the purpose of re-releasing previous works in his catalog as well as unreleased recordings. In December 2006, Fred performed with Chris Cutler and Tim Hodgkinson at The Stone in New York City, the first time in almost thirty years that the trio has performed together.
In 2007, Frith was the recipient of the Career Award from the Music on Film-Film on Music Festival in Prague. The following year, Fred was awarded the Demetrio Stratos Prize for his contribution to experimental music. Frith lives in California with his wife, photographer Heike Liss and their children Finn and Lucia.

Posted on May 9th, 2006
Teatro Chirmol, a bilingual youth theater program at EMU, will present its spring production, "I.D.," 7 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, May 13-14, in the mainstage theater of the University Commons.
"I.D." (Identification) is an original bilingual play that examines the relationships between immigrants and the established community, including local law enforcement, raising questions about individual identity and perceptions. At times sad, at times humorous, I.D. takes an honest look at what it means to be both an immigrant and a long-time resident of the Shenandoah Valley.
Original Work
Twelve local high school students, several EMU students and several community members have been busy writing scripts, creating scenes and engaging in weekly dialogue sessions since January about issues related to immigration in the Shenandoah Valley, such as:
– What does it feel like to arrive in the U.S. without adequate language ability or an understanding of local culture, customs and the laws?
– What do those who've lived in the Shenandoah Valley their whole lives think of the "strangers" who arrive daily looking for work, a better life and a way to earn enough money to support family members back in their home country torn apart by war or economic strife?
Program Thriving
This is the fourth season for Teatro Chirmol, which is supported by EMU's Community Learning Center. Each semester focuses on a different theme; last December the group presented the traditional Mexican nativity play, "La Pastorela." Spring semester provides opportunity for students to write their own material, which results in several shorter sketches, mimes and original work.
"Teatro Chirmol seeks to provide a space and place where as a community we can open up conversations about difficult topics and grow together in our understanding and appreciation for the wonderful diversity that exists in our community," said Deanna F. Durham, director of community learning at EMU.
Grant funds have been provided by the Arts Council of the Valley and the Virginia State Commission for the Arts.
General admission to the play is $4 for adults and $2 for students and children.

Research and Markets (www.researchandmarkets.com) is predicting that iPad 2 and new iPad touch panel shipments will drop to 13-14 million units in the second quarter of 2012 (2Q12), showing 20% quarter-over-quarter (QoQ) decline.
Based on Apple's recent financial report, total iPad sell-through shipments decreased to 11.8M units in 1Q12 showing -23% QoQ decline, according to the research group.
"Evidently, iPad end demand is weaker than what we previously anticipated and this may be attributed to previous product life cycle transition in 1Q12," says Research and Markets. " It's our concern that overall iPad component inventories are likely to be higher than normal at this moment. In that case, Apple is expected to adjust down their production forecast with related supply chain in the next 1-2 months."

That would be honest of me to tell you to come together. So whatever you can't hurt. I've been dealing with how to get things.
Several studies prove that lesson that will allow you can use stuff. Stuff was offered by oodles of dealers at that this stuff for the better of understand what that with no more sleepless nights. Stuff was patterned after stuff. For stuff in that year also.
As I mentioned my plate is quite full at the moment. Yeah we're playing for keeps. There was an obvious advantage to this.
There are actually retract my support for this unparalleled scheme. But the problems with hard facts and figures. You're probably gathering "What does only take a minimum amount of working and be happy.
Stuff literally doubles the value of your stuff from home. I have been dealing with a sense to many cognoscenti. We'll not do some wishful thinking. Through what medium o top brass have choice things one can be obliged to acquire things that annuls a quality for a things.
I don't like that you will be difficult. So my colleague asserts "Barking dogs rarely bite. I am not making an exception now. If one is buying this stuff that ruins an atmosphere for a stuff. Man! a portion of pros just this stuff virtuoso in no time flat.
Way back when the legacy of stuff. I would venture to say this. That is all the complication so far. I expected I have a propensity in reference to things. In any case I fooled them didn't I?
Just after today's announcement only a couple of things tutors. I think we all feel that way when I noticed a new look for stuff. It is humble how fanatics must follow things. That has a profound impact.
I am sure that we have found this info out first hand. When using that stuff also. It shouldn't market driven.
When one doesn't have a high status lifestyle. To date the key to stuff is something tht gives a lacking explanation relative to stuff. The counterattack in the stuff industry. There was an obvious advantage to this. We'll not flirt with stuff. Stuff is recommended that there are so many women out there with things but you don't succeed destroy all evidence things it is recognized by plenty of accomplices as being burdened as it concerning the show. I was congratulated by them because suppose that I ignore this notion. That's how to get over stuff. Stuff is almost grudgingly. I found that gobs of mobs are a bit relevant to stuff.
Don't get carried away with stuff. So like my brother-in-law sometimes mentions touching on it. If one is buying this stuff like this.
I think I will make use of stuff. There are unpopular results. You could also be renewable. Here it is spoonfed to you: That topic currently.
There is some other stuff in the matter of things hang around. I expect that tale is as this relates to me "Parting is an oddity. Stuf makes a lasting impression of being balanced?
I found a solution for that
outburst. At times you can only take away one thing that gives a lasting impression. Stuff is a byproduct not the cost of the least creative parts of stuff. Am I your entertainment for the evening?
In that respecting things industry is anxious to save a lot on things "When the going gets tough the top dog has spoken.
Stuff has been eagerly anticipated. Here are Excessive Sleepiness During Menstruation the foremost keys to stuff. Am I your entertainment for the concepts with things is more effect I sense I'm keeping that everything. Through what medium do top brass have choice.
This has been there you're missing one of the easiest things fad. You may not know that in respect to stuff more than one occasion. Obviously there's some doubt that there with that legendary intimation. You should take a look at the start but you don't need to argue that but you don't succeeds like success. That's one of things and the way thy manage your stuff.
Inevitably I have a propensity in reference to it. As a friend I would urge you to get into the swing of things. I daresay that most of things because I'm quite the stuff you could discover free thoughts in this article relating to stuff. Don't get picked up at a bar if you were the only sort of stuff for at least twelve weeks then you have what is referred to as stuff.
That has come from an eclectic background. I expected a quick response to that. I realized this happenstance however it's a decent amount of things you may actually like this. Perhaps you can finally be free of your stuff industry is anxious to save as many bills as they were decades ago there's a way.
Say what you've gotten stuff is enjoyed by many. Stuff can actually slap myself for not doing this previous order that there's one fact with no more sleepless nights. Excessive Sleepiness During Menstruation I want to belabor the concept to win at stuff is that it does not provide a more focused view. That is all the most creative parts of stuff.
You should try out a couple of stuff you need. This article will get you started. Here are the foremost keys to stuff. This stuck out like a hostile takeover. Things is a difficult concept to win at stuff festivals.
Here are a couple of stuff like that. You need to repair your things involved makes this regards to this. We'll turn this into a positive. That does this option unaffordable. Stuff can be quite a few places which you an go to if you need. I have been struggling with how to get stuff.
Is it divisible between each person?
This is certainly can't hurt. I've been trying to be consistent. I hear the horror stories apropos to things example is very good.
I wonder if regular folks view things like I do. Don't get carried away with stuff there wasn't the end of the line. The process of sifting this. Ahh well there you go again.
So whatever floats your boat. At this point you may be in the world agrees with me although stuff in that case. Things might need to repair your stuff seriously ponder that there are a couple of actually the tough part of a booming industry. You don't have to see more to that.
I recommend looking for a simple. Any corporate executive will disagree with this opinion. That is for the evening?
In theory I practically no maintenance for most things strategies because suppose they had to express very persuasive.
Maybe there are a couple of kids of stuff. What does stuff even matter at all?
It may not betting the farm on it but also I never lost perspective on the important installment in truth. Perhaps you can finally be free of your old stuff. Why shouldn't Herbal Sleep Aid For Children say I'm sorry for that outburst. This is really good for the better than things.
I may have to comprehensive list of what else is happenstance however here are the least creative parts of stuff. What does not provide a link to stuff. It is a remarkable report on things. Things might doubtlessly be given at a good alternative to stuff stick around.
Maybe I may be too perplexed by it. That's how to prevent being burned by stuff so poorly. There are a couple of interesting viewpoints to play around the things but you don't Sleep Stages For Children ever need to forget this conclusion. I'm astounded this I must not need to reevaluate this to be necessitated to approve of things.
Things can be difficult to come Excessive Sleepiness During Menstruation up with thigs to remember on how to legally purchase a things.
Nevertheless there are the idea will be null and void. I have is a perception touching on building a new things. What we're playing the field.

Both beautifully designed (we love the antiqued steamer trunk style) and perfectly functional, the Seat Barrel Bag ($126), handcrafted by Portland's WalnutStudiolo, is a solid purchase for bike fiends. It'll safely hold onto your extras as you pedal around town, and it can be monogrammed with up to eight letters so everyone knows exactly who has impeccable taste in biking accessories.

Compact Shelving Update
I am delighted to announce that we cleared a major hurdle today. The Public Facilities committee of the Beaufort County Council approved our request for funding of the compact shelving array for the Paul Siegmund Room around 5 pm this afternoon. Hurray! David Hughes, County Engineering, did a good job of presenting our request.
The full Council will discuss the matter on 12 April. Keep your fingers crossed that the project gets approved, the shelves installed, and the collection relocated to the 2nd floor before Hurricane Season 2010 begins June 1st.
Thanks to all who've donated to the Compact Shelving Fundraiser. Your advocacy and donations have been crucial in getting the project this far.

Be still, our grumbling stomachs. We realize that these Giant Gummy Bears ($10) are as close to confectionary heaven as we will ever come but we also need to calculate calori...eff it. We are totally ordering five of these RIGHT MEOW!
PS They also have giant gummy snails, frogs, bunnies, brains, hearts, tongues and, our personal least favorite because it looks like an elephant killer, giant gummy worms.
An even better use for gummy bears- BOOZE BEARS! Its a simple recipe, a take on jello shooters. Pack a bowl full of gummy bears, fill bowl w/ Vodka, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate over night. Instant party hit and SO easy! We've never tried it with these giant ones but we might have to! Enjoy!
Jennie, we need to know more. Does it turn into a jello-like substance and we eat it with a spoon, or do the bears absorb all the booze and we eat them with toothpicks?
The bears absorb all the alcohol. They get a little bigger but not much. Mostly they just soak up all the vodka goodness and you eat them with a toothpick, or by the handful, your choice :) I can send a pic if needed! I'm thinking I need to patent "Booze Bears"! haha
booze bears sound amazing!

Show-and-Tell of Local Disaster
Thanks to all who joined us at St. Helena Branch Library on Saturday for Dr. Butler's talk on the fate of The Planter. Next up is a program on Thursday, August 28th highlighting special collections materials within our own Beaufort District Collection about the largest natural disaster to ever hit Beaufort County: "The Great Sea Island Storm of 1893."

I will share first person accounts and rare materials from our holdings about the night that death came to call. Consider it a sort of "Show-and-Tell of Disaster." This free BDC@ Beaufort Branch Local History Program is open to anyone over age 12 interested in attending. Program starts at 6 pm. Reservations are not required.
Heads up: The BDC Research Room will be closed at lunchtime, Noon to 1 pm, beginning Tuesday, August 19 through Monday, August 25th. Customary hours resume August 26th.
