Matt Cameron: Back To The Garden
Playing The Odds
Same as they ever were, Soundgarden's new songs are stocked with odd melodic groupings, odd metered rhythms, and Cameron handles it all like Houdini. Does he count the odd meters or just go with the flow?
"I do count the patterns at some point," he says. "Maybe not at the beginning stages. Most of the riffs that Kim throws at me I have to listen to a few times to figure out where the 1 is and where a fill or pickup will work. It does take a few listens but once we run through the parts a few times then we can add another part here or there. It's a process we're all familiar with. But normally it does start with Kim or Chris or Ben throwing a very strange guitar riff at me."
In the pre-click 1980s, when Soundgarden's early albums were released, Cameron once recorded himself, then played to his own track as a click track. Though he previously stated that he hated click tracks, these days the little beast is his best friend.
"The new record was entirely recorded to click," Cameron says, noting that he prefers a closed hi-hat sound. "Over the years I've grown to enjoy playing to drum machines and loops and drum patterns. It's a part of being a working drummer these days. You really do have to know how to work with that technology in a recording environment.
"The new record was written pretty quickly and recorded over a period of a year. I recorded the drums at the very beginning stages and I wanted to make sure everything would line up because I knew they'd be overdubbing a lot of guitars to the drum tracks. Sometimes when you know there will be a lot of overdubbing it helps to [record to a click] to make sure the drums will all be square. But having said that, I have absolutely done most of my recordings without a click track."
As Cameron has developed his skill with the click, he's also grown as a songwriter. "By Crooked Steps" and "Eyelid's Mouth" are his contributions on King Animal. Past Soundgarden Cameron contributions include "He Didn't," "Room A Thousand Years Wide," "Drawing Flies," "New Damage," "Mailman," "Fresh Tendrils," and "Rhinosaur." Songwriting seems to have influenced Cameron's conceptual approach to the drum set. His parts are as memorable as any guitar riff or vocal melody.
"My goal has always been to create another element in the music that will make it better somehow," he explains. "It's more of a conceptual approach than just playing beats only. All my favorite drummers have that vibe going. John Bonham is obviously the king of creating almost a weather system of a drum part. He has storm clouds that you can see on the horizon that are coming to just murder you. That's the drumming that always inspired me as a kid and I like to listen to music like that now. I definitely try to make the drumming as interesting as possible. Sometimes it works better than others.
"With some of the slower Soundgarden songs like 'Fell On Black Days,' " he continues, "even though they are laidback we're always playing with a lot of intent. We want the music to come across as aggressive. A lot of the bands that Soundgarden came up with in the mid-'80s, the whole Black Flag generation, we definitely like that style and the way people played in those bands. The intent was so fierce. We always tried to have that in the background of our music."
Cameron typically makes complex meters sound simple, buffeting meter madness with hardcore groove. When does he play it straight and when does he go odd-meter mad?
"With regards to Soundgarden, it depends on the tune, basically," Cameron responds. "Take a song like 'Room A Thousand Years Wide' – the drums are pretty much following the guitar throughout the whole song. In some songs it's really important to not stick out too much and to make sure the propulsion is the main ingredient of the drum part. On the new record I still have those elements of air and space. And I was trying to add a few more Latin and African percussion elements in certain songs. But in a song like 'Non-State Actor,' it's basically 4/4 with a couple bars of 5/8 or 7/8. That's one I haven't actually counted! But it's mostly 4/4. The guitar riff is pure eighth-notes, and I figured that was a good part in the pattern for the verses to have a little open air and that hi-hat swoop. That is right where the guitar riff sort of ends."
"By Crooked Steps" pushes forward with a furious, tumbling rhythm that cycles and drives, Cameron nailing the downbeat in an odd-metered 5/4 assault.
"I try to inhabit the five as 4/4 there, with a couple different variations," he explains. "When we were rehearsing that I took a couple weeks to find the right pattern. I count that as 1-2, 1-2-3. So I put the snare on the 2 of the first phrase, then the 3 on the second phrase. It's really basic but it just has that hole in there. It works pretty well with the guitar and the vocals are really strong there. I wanted propulsion to be the main ingredient for that particular song."
Choice Cuts
Cameron likes his drumming in "Bones Of Birds" ("a nice dynamic thing") and the slow and sludgy "Blood On The Valley Floor."
"That is a trademark Soundgarden element for sure," he says, "that sludgy heavy rock thing. On both of those songs I'm playing off the guitar. Kim wrote 'Blood On The Valley Floor' and we tracked that one together. 'Bones Of Birds' was a Chris Cornell song, and we tracked that one together. We rehearsed that one quite a bit before we recorded it so I knew what I was going to play, whereas 'Blood' was written mostly in the studio. My drum part usually evolves in the studio.

Bill O' Reilly responded to Miss Piggy's big diss on Fox News on his show on Monday night.
At a London press conference for their new movie, the Muppets issued a long-awaited response to Fox News' allegation that the film was part of Hollywood's liberal agenda against big oil and corporations. Kermit the Frog denied it, while Miss Piggy added that Eric Bolling's accusation was "almost as laughable as accusing Fox News as, you know, being news." Their comments got laughter and applause from the audience.
O'Reilly addressed the swipe in his "Reality Check" segment. In a joking tone, he warned, "Well, we still like the Muppets, but they'd better watch it."

Is a new 'Shrek' movie on the way?
Jeffrey Katzenberg hints that we could be looking at the return of the ogre
Is another "Shrek" movie somewhere on the horizon?
Jeffrey Katzenberg, the CEO of DreamWorks Animation has recorded an interview with Fox Business Network scheduled to air today and according to Variety, he had something to say about everyone's favorite green ogre. The quote opens with Katzenberg stating "We like to let them have a little bit of time to rest," and then continuing, "But I think you can be confident that we'll have another chapter in the Shrek series. We're not finished, and more importantly, neither is he."
The most recent "Shrek" film, "Shrek Forever After," was released in 2010, nine years after the first film. All told, the four films have made $2.9 billion worldwide and the "Shrek" franchise doesn't just stop with the films. There have been television specials, a musical, a spinoff film, and a "Shrek" attraction is set to open in London in 2015.
That is really pretty good for a grumpy ogre who wanted nothing more than to be left alone in his swamp.
What do you think – do you want to see more of Shrek, Donkey, Fiona, and the rest?

27%. That's if MSFT goes from today's price of 27.50 to 35. Not sure how long it would stay there though. It depends on who Ballmer's replacement is. If Bill Gates filled in temporarily, it would definitely boost MSFT's share price.
It wouldn't necessarily rise at all.

California Governor Jerry Brown's inauguration was historic in more ways than one. After all, this is his fourth term - despite the legal limit of just two (the term limit was imposed in 1990 after his earlier terms in the 70's). But perhaps even more historic was the content of his exciting inaugural speech. Among many plans for a healthier and more economically viable state, Brown proposed ambitious green energy goals including growing renewable energy to 50% by 2030. Coincidentally, on Tuesday we posted a blog encouraging readers to support the policies and politicians defending and expanding solar opportunities.
Gov. Brown described California as an environmental policy trendsetter. We already lead the nation in solar energy usage, energy efficiency overall, cleaner cars and energy storage. However, with the majority of scientists agreeing that we must limit global warming to 2 degrees Celsius by 2050, much more comprehensive measures are necessary.
If we have any chance at all of achieving that, California, as it does in many areas, must show the way. We must demonstrate that reducing carbon is compatible with an abundant economy and human well-being.
He outlined the following three goals to accomplish by 2030:
California is already on track to reach its goal of one third energy derived from renewable sources by 2020. So, although 50% by 2030 sounds bold because no one else is doing it, it is actually feasible. This could mean the continuation of tax breaks and other financial incentives for homeowners to go solar. Given that transportation accounts for 40 percent of California's greenhouse gas emissions, incentives and infrastructure to get drivers in electric cars are also likely.
I envision a wide range of initiatives: more distributed power, expanded rooftop solar, micro-grids, an energy imbalance market, battery storage, the full integration of information technology and electrical distribution and millions of electric and low-carbon vehicles.
It won't be easy accomplishing Brown's goals with the oil industry leaders and some politicians opposing anything green. As mentioned in Tuesday's post, we must remain diligent in supporting policies and politicians fighting for a cleaner world. By his speech, Governor Brown once again demonstrated that he is such a politician, with his practical and no-nonsense stance:
Taking significant amounts of carbon out of our economy without harming its vibrancy is exactly the sort of challenge at which California excels. This is exciting, it is bold and it is absolutely necessary if we are to have any chance of stopping potentially catastrophic changes to our climate system.
We are at a crossroads. With big and important new programs now launched and the budget carefully balanced, the challenge is to build for the future, not steal from it, to live within our means and to keep California ever golden and creative, as our forebears have shown and our descendants would expect.
There's a good chance if you're reading this blog you either have hopes of someday owning an electric vehicle (EV) or you are one of the proud individuals already enjoying cruising silently by gas stations…such as Run on Sun's Jim Jenal in our new Volt pictured on the right! In either case your ears likely perk up at any breaking news regarding EVs.
Over the last few days I've noticed alarming headlines coming from multiple sources. While the key word in headlines such as "Study Finds Electric Cars May Not Be Very Green at All" is "may", many of the articles state definitively that electric cars are not as green as gasoline cars. I decided to investigate.
On December 15th a new study by the University of Minnesota was released to the press. The study calculated the air quality impacts of manufacturing and refueling vehicles with various forms of power. Below is the study's abstract verbatim:
We evaluate the air quality-related human health impacts of 10…options, including the use of liquid biofuels, diesel, and compressed natural gas (CNG) in internal combustion engines; the use of electricity from a range of conventional and renewable sources to power electric vehicles (EVs); and the use of hybrid EV technology.
…We find that powering vehicles with corn ethanol or with coal-based or "grid average" electricity increases monetized environmental health impacts by 80% or more relative to using conventional gasoline. Conversely, EVs powered by low-emitting electricity from natural gas, wind, water, or solar power reduce environmental health impacts by 50% or more. Consideration of potential climate change impacts alongside the human health outcomes described here further reinforces the environmental preferability of EVs powered by low-emitting electricity relative to gasoline vehicles.
Did you catch that last part? Electric vehicles, charged by low-emitting electricity (anything but coal) are preferable environmentally alongside human health impacts…to gasoline vehicles. A far cry from the grossly misinterpreted 'electric cars aren't green'. Which is simply not what the study says.
The straightforward lessons from the study include three main points:
In summary, don't get an electric vehicle if you're planning on charging it off of a coal-powered grid. Do get an electric vehicle if your grid is sufficiently green… or better yet, use a solar power system designed specifically with charging your EV in mind – see Run on Sun's website for info! And remember that facts are frequently misinterpreted by the press. When in doubt, read the actual study, not just the headlines.
The New York Times, Washington Post and other national media all weighed in on a historic, yet divisive, announcement from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) just before the Thanksgiving holiday. As part of the Obama administrations' enforcement of the Clean Air Act the EPA proposed a regulation that would lower the current limit for ground-level ozone pollution to 65-70 parts per billion (ppb) with a possibility for seeking a standard as low as 60 ppb. This is in line with what independent scientific advisory panels have been recommending since 2008 when the current level was established at 75 ppb. The EPA had planned to release the rule in 2011 but the Obama Administration decided to delay due to election year jitters and the President preferred to wait until the economy was in a better condition to handle the economic blows that would result. Some may believe this is an issue being pushed by the Obama administration, but the 1970 Clean Air Act requires that these air regulations are revised based on the scientific evidence every five years.
The proposed standard is referring to ground-level ozone everyone in Southern California knows as smog or the infamous "haze". As we are also painfully aware, smog is caused by emissions of pollutants which come from a range of sources including cars, power plants, air traffic, manufacturing plants, and oil and gas refineries. Ozone in the air we breathe is very harmful triggering a variety of effects such as asthma, chest pain, heart and lung disease, and premature death – particularly in children, the sick, and the elderly. For sunny Los Angeles this is no small matter since ozone causes the most damage during hot sunny days. As such, the updated standard is meant to be a public health measure and does not include direct regulation on businesses. The new rules will expand the ozone monitoring season and update the Air Quality Index to keep people informed when pollution levels are dangerous.
The fossil fuel industry, manufacturers, and their allies criticize the new standards stating they will wreak havoc on the economy. Some even calling it the "costliest regulation ever". Indeed, power plants and factories will need to install expensive technology to clean up their pollution emissions. However, advocates argue that the economic benefits - measured in reduced health care needs and increased productivity due to improved health - significantly outweigh the costs to industry. States also have an exceedingly generous time, up to 23 years, to comply. Though some regions, including Southern California are not even complying with the 1997 standard of 84 ppb yet.
EPA administrator, Gina McCarthy, stated "Bringing ozone pollution standards in line with the latest science will clean up our air,…protect those most at-risk", and the American people "deserve to know the air we breathe is safe."
This is what improving regulations on air quality is all about. Though smog levels have been improving steadily over the last 40 years, there are always costs and benefits to each incremental improvement. As populations in urban centers continue to grow, these reductions in allowable pollution levels are always going to be both more difficult to accomplish and more imperative to preserve human and environmental health. Most would agree that human and environmental health trump the economic health of industries, especially industries that now have many viable solutions to damaging practices. Getting regulations in line with scientific evidence is just one more way to remind industry of how their environmental impacts are affecting the rest of us.
"Cap and Trade" - a sensible approach to addressing climate change by reducing emissions of Greenhouse Gasses - was once considered so non-controversial that even prominent Republicans like John McCain and even Newt Gingrich endorsed it. Today the idea is routinely trashed in Washington as a "big government energy mandate" that must be stopped at all costs. And yet, in California, Cap and Trade has been up and running for nearly two years despite legal challenges and dire predictions that it would ruin the economy. (Hint: it hasn't!)
Now the program (known as AB32) is set to expand to cover vehicle fuels, which account for one-third of all GHG emissions in the state, and industry, particularly the fossil-fuel industry, is attacking the program again. Only this time they are playing a smarter, some would say more cynical, game - hiding behind "AstroTurf" groups to conceal their agenda.
Perhaps you've seen this ad:
Heavens, Californians are facing a "hidden" gas tax - oh no! - and who is giving you this news? An attractive model fronting for something called the "California Drivers Alliance" who wants you to sign their petition. In reality, what is hidden here is who is actually behind this ad - the Western States Petroleum Association (WSPA) and its fossil-fuel producing members.
In a PowerPoint presentation highlighting WSPA's "Priority Issues" under the banner, "Energy Proud", WSPA lays out how the current boost in domestic crude oil production should be "The Best of Times" except for those pesky concerns over the environment from fracking, oil spills, and yes, GHG emissions which threatens WSPA's members with "The Worst of Times." Their response? A massive astroturfing campaign designed to mislead consumers over the impact of this next phase of California's cap and trade program all the while keeping the role of Big Oil out of the picture.
Fortunately WSPA has not been as sly as they intended, with their game plan having been made public, and now facing a coalition of pro-environment groups helping to unmask the powers behind the astroturfing. That coalition, operating under the name, Stop Fooling CA, is putting out the facts behind WSPA's campaign to deceive the public, including clever graphics like the cartoon on the right. On their website you can sign up for news alerts and add your name to the list of people who are pushing back against Big Oil's covert attempt to derail the most successful cap and trade program anywhere in the world, and one that even the Wall Street Journal concedes, "may hold lessons for other states."
In a dramatic joint announcement coming out of the APEC summit in China, President Barack Obama and Chinese President Xi Jinping have committed to significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. (H/T climatecrocks.com)
The agreement calls on China to peak its GHG emissions by no later than 2030 and increase the use of non-fossil fuels to 20% by that date. Meanwhile, the US will cut its GHG emissions by 26-28% (compared to 2005 levels) by 2025. For the two largest emitters of GHG, these steps by the US and China are historic and much needed.
"As the world's two largest economies, energy consumers and emitters of greenhouse gases, we have a special responsibility to lead the global effort against climate change," Obama said Wednesday in a joint press conference with Xi.
UPDATE - We noted that this was a really big deal, but the graph below is truly the picture worth a thousand words:
While the impact of the actions from the US and China alone are significant, as the graph shows, their greatest benefit is in serving as an example for other countries to follow.
Beyond the practical significance in helping to combat climate change, China's commitment - coming as it does from the head of the Communist Party - takes away the deniers' favorite argument: that it is meaningless for the US to act since China never will. Well guess what, China is acting.
Sorry deniers, what else have you got?

Whether we want to admit it or not, being that it is the home state to many on the O.I. Team, Idaho is a great opportunity to extend your season and put a monster whitetail on the ground. These are the top 5 reasons to let us set you up with a hunt for some stud whitetails in Idaho!
1. Differing terrain
The terrain where whitetails in Idaho live varies greatly from rolling grain fields with brush covered draws to steep timber drainages where some dark horned giants lurk in the shadows. There are hunting opportunities to fit many different styles depending on what you like. I prefer the timber draws in the early season with archery equipment to be followed with long range rifle hunts over clear cuts during the rifle season. There are many different ways to do it out here and no one style is better than the rest. The differing terrain may require different fitness levels. I recommend being in Elk shape to hunt deer out here if you want a big one. The population densities are not as high as in the mid-West so some work is involved to pick through and find the buck you are looking for. Click here for a workout that we recommend.
The people densities are a great part of why it is so awesome to whitetail hunt in Idaho. If you look at the numbers of people that hunt to the square miles of land it is a fraction of that of even the most managed areas in the mid-West. You can leave the other people behind and chase big bucks on your own terms without having to worry about other people spooking YOUR deer!
3. Rut Timing
Many hunters will choose to deer hunt out West because of when our rut falls. You could be able to hunt several different ruts all across the United States if whitetails are what you're looking for. For instance in the mid west the rut is in early November, followed by the west with the rut being mid to late November and moving on down you could even hunt the southern rut in places like Texas after all that! It's like it was planned that way for opportunity!
4. Extended Seasons
In Idaho the seasons are long and give great opportunity to hunt bucks early, pre rut, rut, post rut and the migration. These all have their differing benefits that some hunters like and others not so much. The season opens on August 30 and runs to the end of the year with great opportunity for different weapon choices. The beauty of it is that the tag is over the counter and you don't have to pick a weapon season. You can do them all if you want!
5. Big Bucks!
The best part of it all is BIG BUCKS! I have personally taken several nice bucks in Idaho not to mention some of the bombers taken every year with our guides here in Idaho! Bucks from the 130-170 range are taken every year on both public and private lands with a few being taken that will exceed that and leave people starring in amazement. It is rare that bucks of that caliber can even been seen on public lands let alone be harvested on a pretty regular basis!
The opportunities in Idaho for whitetails are endless and we have the staff that can help get you in the right direction and setup with the best guides to put you on the fast track to some bomber whitetails wherever your schedule can fit a hunt in for the fall!

Quick, easy, and healthy! I juat added some garlic to this for a little more flavor. I thought the cumin and cayenne amounts worked very well. It was spicy, but not too much. I pureed all but about 3/4 cup, just to give some texture. The only thing I would change is to reduce the broth to only 3 cups next time. Thanx for sharing!

From the Christian Science Monitor: "Kyrgyzstan tries to squeeze Islamic extremists in Central Asia "
Authorities say that extremists are trying to set up a base here to overthrow Kyrgyzstan's secular post-Soviet government, as well as those in neighboring Uzbekistan and Tajikistan, and create an Islamic state.
But observers say that the government's harsh methods – in a country that has had a traditionally tolerant and secular Sunni Muslim population – are creating more radicals than they are eliminating, and igniting ethnic tensions in the Ferghana Valley, a volatile, diverse region shared by Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan.
The crackdown is also part of a series of incidents suggesting Kyrgyzstan's turn from the West, and the US in particular, and embrace of Russia and Uzbekistan.
Law-enforcement bodies have fought pitched battles with gunmen in recent months. In May, armed individuals overran Kyrgyz and Tajik border posts, killing three Tajik border guards and a Kyrgyz customs official. In July, Kyrgyz security forces killed five suspected members of the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan (IMU), a group that fought beside the Taliban in Afghanistan.
"We are reaching critical mass of armed people in the region," says Martha Brill Olcott, an expert with the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace in Washington. "I think there could be a wave of acts of violence in Central Asia."
Relations between Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan were frosty after Bishkek sheltered hundreds of refugees from Andijan, and after the "Tulip Revolution" deposed longtime leader Askar Akayev.
But Kyrgyz officials, under strong Uzbek pressure, now seem to hold the view that militant Islam as well as non- violent political Islam constitute a threat.
Along with the IMU, Bishkek, as well as other Central Asia regimes, has targeted Hizb-ut-Tahrir, a London-based group that aims to unite the world's Muslims in a single sharia-law state. Hizb-ut-Tahrir members say they will achieve this by peaceful means, though their rhetoric is often virulently anti-Western and
Kyrgyz law-enforcement officials say that Hizb-ut-Tahrir has split, and a number of members now support violence. Organization representatives deny this.
All things considered, the analyst quoted below fails to see an agenda beyond discontent with "corruption and economic stagnation."
Michael Hall, Central Asia director of the Brussels-based International Crisis Group, says that the region's authoritarian regimes are afraid of the political challenge the movements pose, which has arisen from corruption and economic stagnation.
"These regimes don't like opposition, period," Mr. Hall says. "If today that comes in the form of Islamic radicals, that's sort of the threat du jour."
"You also have to see it from the point of view of these movements' supporters," he adds. "These are people for whom Islam, even radical Islam, represents justice, fairness, and accountability on the part of their governments – and they are not seeing that right now."
One will recall that Palestinian voters were alleged in some circles to have voted Hamas into power in a similar move against "corruption."

Skip to comments.Paula Deen's upcoming book nixed by publisher
Posted on 06/28/2013 2:24:37 PM PDT by Perdogg
click here to read article
maybe all of her supporters should boycott any company dropping her
This has turned into an all out blitz and it seems so very orchestrated. It has all the viscousness of chicago politics. I can't help but wonder how much Mooch and Valerie Jarrett have to do with this
naw...it was the religious reference
How many black or those of color does Paula or has she employed over the years?
Amazing how idiots in CONGRE$$ can say stupid things everyday and no one peeps in the least in the media.
Make that creepy ass cracker.
she started the grovelling...
I no longer pity her....
maybe do a recipe book on "Cracker Recipes"???
Is anybody going to stand up for Paula Dean? Is anyone going to finally stand up and speak against the politically correct witch hunts? Lefties are neo-puritans. This is getting more and more chilling by the day.
It is. And it's probably only the beginning, only the FIRST of who they will destroy if their hideous communist agenda isn't followed to the letter.
This is not the America we once knew. It's officially gone.
those godless blackhearted barstards
THINK like us or be an outcast.
All the sweeter if Paula gets rich off a book that would not have made anywhere near the splash.
Just sent Random House/Ballantine a short but sweet note expressing my dismay and future support of their products.
I hope they take a financial smacking over this...
Bingo! I forgot all about that....good memory.
"OK. There is something WAY more going on here than a 60-something year old woman saying the n-word decades ago."
You took the words right out of my mouth. I, too, think this is way overboard. Someone has it in for this woman & big time. Something happened & she is being made an example of. I just wish she'd let us all in on it.
The libs have been after her for a decade....They despise her largely because she represents everything they hate about the south. In short they believe that burning the south and killing most of the men was not enough punishment for what they believe was a war that was all about slavery and that the south somehow invented it.
I say this as a transplanted Yankee and a creepy cracker to boot....
Wow...what cowards.
There is something strangely odd about people that would march out in the freezing cold with candles lit begging for mercy for a prisoner on death row about to be put to death for some heinous crime . . . because now he is sorry for it . . .
and those that would destroy a woman and her whole family off of a racial slur uttered years ago . . . ???
Who was it that recently said, about one of Hillary's crimes while in office "that was ancient history!"
There simply ain't no forgiveness for anyone that crosses this monster . . .
And even stranger when one considers that this is one of their own . . . an nobama supporter! voted for him twice!
I'm afraid that her real crime was in being born white . . .
Buh bye, Ballantine.
Hmmm. I appreciate your creepy Yankee cracker perspective but I thought Paula Deen was a giant, Obama-worshipping lib. If that's true, then why would the lobs be after her?
There's more to this than meets the eye. At any rate, this isn't the country I knew five years ago. America is dead. Welcome to Amerika.
"You better watch out, cracka...I knows where yo restaurant be..."
I hope another publisher picks it up and I hope this action by the publisher is enough of a breach of contract that Paula Deen can sue and recoup some of the loss.
I am sure another publisher will step up and take on this project—That or Ms. Deen should self Publish. It will not lose money—its a sure bet best seller.
I wouldn't be surprised if the publisher claims that she violated some so-called "morality clause" in her contract. Only problem with that, though; is that they get to decide what is moral and what is not.
Paula Deen says kiss her fanny!
On the same side of my argument you had a seasoned Senator from Virginia who was once a Grand Wizard of the KKK, but he renounced the South and his former life...
Paula Dean was proud of her heritage as most southerners are, and thus she did not deserve the pardon from the wizards of morality.......errrr.....Progressive Values...which they don't even believe in anyway and just use it to claim they are relevant.
Other than a lawsuit that I thought everyone knew about, regarding a former black employee who claimed she was racist, which resulted in someone making her deposition public that set off this entire episode, I know of no other reason why the left hates her guts....They hate her because what she is...plain and simple...and they see her demise as a prize.
"This was a long frikken time ago. I grew up...whadda bout you offended black folks."I for one am getting sick and tired of crackas bowing down to those who hate us.
It is unbecoming, Paula...show a little backbone.
She could title the book:
Wees Donn Needs Noos Stin King Cursives
This is ALL designed as a GRIM REMINDER to future offenders.
She could make a ton more money doing her own publishing and broadcasting.
BINGO! Chicago-way payback.
Thank you
But what does Mike Tyson have to do with this thread?
These people obviously don't believe in forgiveness!
excellent points
This is because the motives behind all of it is evil. If it was for goodness and righteousness the right way would eventually prevail. That tells you why the evil tactics to impart evil.
The woman told the truth in a deposition about something she said 30 years ago. That is all this woman did. Evil has turned our world inside out and upside down.
Where do the executives of Random House/Ballantine Books live? Paula Dean Fans should act like a bunch of liberals at Karl Rove's house. Bang on the doors and windows. Scare the hell out of them and their families. If we don't start acting as aggressively as they do, it will get worse for all of us.
Freedom of speech and association as well as goodness and decency must be defended from evil.
At the present time, evil is walking all over those who believe in goodness and decency because we haven't found our voice and started fighting back.
When we do start to fight back, humor and ridicule MUST be an important part of our arsenal.
Humor, as an ingredient, is how reality can be wielded in a manner immune to the smears and lies of our enemy.
The Left uses lies...we must use humor.
Liberals have been weaned on hatred and anger. It isn't a racial thing...it is a cultural thing.
There are many fine black conservatives, Jews and Christians.
It's not about the color of our skin...it is about choosing sides. The left has sided with Lucifer...and many of them even know it.
Very true... but it's NOT the business level that the Paula Deen business dynasty was operating on.
Look, Lady Gaga could make lot's more money selling direct to he fans... but there is ONE little catch. The establishment machine builds your image over time and you must quietly allow them to collect their "pound of flesh".
Without the "machine" your stuck at ground zero trying to launch yourself.
A TRUE exception to the rule, in music, was PRINCE. He was hyped big by the machine and became a name and a BIG seller. A few years back, on his own, he put out his latest album directly and later reported that he made more money on that ONE album than ALL of the albums he had collectively put out through the record label.
My point: The "establishment machine" feeds your hype because they are financially feeding off of it. Paula Deen has now been banished by this same establishment and she's now on the outside looking in. Like Prince she still has the notoriety but now must negotiate the system on her own.
The difference: Prince's popularity, according to the label, had faded over time. Paul Deen's popularity has been compromised over the silly a$$ "politically correct" idea that she used the "N" word many years ago. Strange world we live in these days.
The reason blacks use nigga all the time is to try to take the sting out of the word. Incidents like this just reload the sting and then some. The left has now fully recharged this word as a weapon that can wound. And they've disarmed blacks so that they need Democrat plantation lawyers to defend them, minus a cut.
"Something happened & she is being made an example of. I just wish shed let us all in on it."
She let the cat out of the bag about how much Michelle Obama ate on her show. Paula's lucky she didn't get droned.
"OK. There is something WAY more going on here than a 60-something year old woman saying the n-word decades ago."
It's the new "zero tolernace for crackers" standard. This isn't the same country it was five years ago.
That's the core issue. They have definitely RECHARGED the "N" word. They've recharged their light saber. The "N" word has POWER again.
Yeah... sorry to say, it's what keeps Jesse Jackson in business.
Good post. I'm inviting a self-published freeper novelist to comment.
I did the same and while I was at it I also sent a note to Smithfield Hams and to the Food Channel. Leftists actually enjoy another's suffering.
Agreed...that's why I don't care that she supported Obama. She's an American who's being viciously attacked for using her freedom of speech. We need to be consistent and stand by her. Otherwise, it could be you or me next. She's being made an example of. Blacks and the Left are saying, "See, Crackers? WE decide what you can and can't say. You'd better toe the line or you're next."
I do care that she's an Obama supporter. Every single person who voted for that man deserves exactly this treatment at the hands of the "more PC than thou" crowd.
First they came for the Obama supporters who dared to say the N-word....

Mourning Jewelry: A Spooky Tradition?
Halloween approaches and the MHS has decked the halls with skulls, skeletons, and scythes. Or if you don't find those creepy, then how about rings full of human hair? How about a brooch featuring a snake eating its own tail (the ouroboros, a symbol of eternity—in itself a scary thing!)?
The spooky objects on display are part of the exhibition In Death Lamented: The Tradition of Anglo-American Mourning Jewelry, as described in a previous post. The season is right for a closer look at one of the most haunting and emblematic pieces in the exhibition.
This ring, part of the MHS collections, commemorates John Gray, the infant son of John and Mary Otis Gray and nephew of political writer Mercy Otis Warren. John died at only six days old. The ring has a design of three joined enameled scrolls and a gold foil skull under a square crystal. The inscription that runs around the outside of the band reads, "J:GRAY OB·17·SEP 1763·Æ 6D," meaning "John Gray died 17 September 1763 aged 6 days." Less than two months after the infant's death, his mother died as well, and a ring was made in her memory.
While skull imagery might seem outré today, it was commonplace in both memento mori jewelry and mourning jewelry before the neoclassical style. Jewels bearing skulls, skeletons, gravediggers' tools, and other seemingly grim images served to remind the wearer that they will die and should therefore live with the next world in mind. Or, as another ring's inscription eloquently puts it, "A good life a happie death."
To learn more about mourning jewelry, and to see some truly beautiful and affecting pieces, visit In Death Lamented: The Tradition of Anglo-American Mourning Jewelry at the MHS. The exhibition is free and open to the public. The full-color companion volume, written by the exhibition's co-curator Sarah Nehama, can be purchased in person at the MHS or online at Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble.

But what exactly is lifestyle photography?
Lifestyle photography is unposed. It's not your typical "everyone stand there and look at the camera and smile" (not that there's anything wrong with that). That's just not what I do.
I do genuine. I do fun. I do playing, tickling, laughing. I do running, talking, hugging. I capture you being you. No fuss. No stress.
Lifestyle photography is relaxed and intimate. It's capturing emotions, interactions, moments. It's finding the special in the every day. It's remembering what's important.
It's natural.
It's real.
