On January 16, Genworth Financial, Inc. (NYSE:GNW) announced a new U.S. Mortgage Insurance capital plan that it believes will reduce the risk-to-capital at Genworth Mortgage Insurance Company, the company's main U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiary, by 12 to 15 points, decrease its potential need for additional capital, ensure the continued ability to write new business and reduce the risk of a default under the indenture governing Genworth's senior notes.
Genworth's plan will require regulatory approval for various parts of its sweeping plan. Genworth indicated its cash and highly liquid securities position at the holding company totaled approximately $1.0 billion as of December 31, 2012. Genworth will contribute $100 million of this to the GMICO subsidiary as part of the comprehensive capital plan. This will likely occur in the second quarter of 2013. The company noted that it anticipates the combined risk-to-capital ratio of the U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiaries will be reduced by 8 to 10 points from this plan.
Genworth has been one of the better performing financials in the second half of 2012. In 2012, Seth Klarman's Baupost Group acquired a significant position in Genworth. Klarman is well regarded as one of the better value investors. Baupost added 15 million shares of Genworth Financial to its portfolio in the second quarter of 2012.
Genworth is an equity that Baupost has both added and dropped in the last two years, which is contrary to Klarman's normal practices. Baupost had established a position in Genworth in late 2011, but sold out of it in early the first quarter of 2012, likely after financials had an exceptionally strong January. Genworth, which primarily provides life insurance and wealth management services, appreciated by 40 percent within the first month of 2012, but subsequently declined to prices below its 2012 starting price.
In 2013, GNW appears to be retracing some of its prior climbing steps. Apparently, Baupost thought Genworth had overheated in early Q1 and got out, only to later re-enter it at a more opportune price, but the situation is somewhat different this time. Baupost retained its position through Q3 of 2012, when last reported.
In early 2012, Genworth postponed plans to bring public the company's Australian mortgage unit, a book of business valued at around $2 billion, due to performance issues and declining market conditions. Genworth also grappled with increased credit ratings agency scrutiny, and potentially crippling downgrades. Since then, the company continues to make moves to reduce the potential and severity of downgrades, as well as to unlock some of the value in its subsidiaries.
To this end, Genworth's Australian subsidiary will likely go public within the next year or two. Other positive news could also move Genworth. The company continues to trade well below its book value, and shares are now likely still around one third of probable book value. Many financials continue to trade below book value, but Genworth is also undervalued relative to the valuations of its peers and may catch up to them if Genworth can improve its credit quality.
Genworth recently made several new additions at its highest ranks, making the potential for other and further changes entirely possible. In mid-December, Genworth named Thomas J. McInerney the company's President and Chief Executive Officer, and just announced the addition of Michael Derstine as Chief Risk Officer at its U.S. Mortgage Insurance Unit.
This new plan comes about a month after McInerney became CEO, and was likely in the works long before Derstine came on board. Derstine's hiring may have been in contemplation of it. One large question that is out of the control of Genworth's management is the regulatory approval of this new plan. If approved, additional positive tailwinds will likely follow.
Disclosure: I am long GNW. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from Seeking Alpha). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

They are about the same although IMO the U-wing looks a little more elegant.
I read that as well...hopefully Carmina's finish holds up to some polish. I'm in the Ep. MTO order for the hatchgrain Soller chukka and hope to darken the finish with some dark brown creme/wax.
I'm sure that if the peeps at Skoak knew exactly how long it will be delayed, they'd be happy to tell you. I understand the frustration - I'd feel it too. I'm just not sure they can do more than tell you what they have been told.
Leaves or Gabriel,
A question about the new color of this shoe Carmina model 80249. Would you say that it is similar to the Edward Green Almond or Chestnut country calf? Or neither? I'm just trying to get a better feel for the color of this shoe, it can be tricky looking at the computer monitor. Thanks.
^^^ I can't answer your question, but I can say that on my monitor the colour looks gorgeous. From multiple purchases, I have found Skoak's photos to be very true renditions in terms of colour. In each instance I got exactly what I thought I was getting in terms of colour. But of course, I can't see what you are seeing on your monitor.

A plugin that creates a live shoutbox, using AJAX as a backend. Users can chat freely from your blog without refreshing the page!
wordspew_archive.php there were an old bug with the time shown with the
strftime function. Corrected.
ajax_shout.php and
fade.php in a unique
ajax_shout.js so there will be less http requests and shorter responses times.
onclick (for the resize of the shoutbox). I used
onClick who does not validate as XHTML 1.0... Thanks to xcopfly who informs me about the bug :).
version_compare ; it's why the minimum version of WP is now 2.5 ;).
$wp_version variable, i've done some modifications on pages where I use
version_compare. BTW you shouldn't have any problem with user nickname or smileys.
$html = implode('', file($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/wp-config.php")); who can cause errors if the blog is installed in a subfolder and not in the root folder.
40 years and six month was shown),
widgetized.php to produce XHTML conform code,
define('WP_DEBUG', true); some menage have been done in the code, so normally there will be no more warning message during the activation of the plugin under WP 3.x
register_sidebar_widget and
register_widget_control, users will have to re-drop the shoutbox on their sidebars in the widget page of their blog ;)
version_compare cleaner than
wordspew-rss.php where the variable
$theuser_nickname was not correctly set.
If you use one of this keyword without any "parameter" you'll use the "default" shoutbox (without any theme).
Otherwise, you can use 2 kinds of values to be more specific.
If you use the term :
@pages(rubric) It meens that you want to use a specific shoutbox for ALL pages.
If you use the term :
@pages(linked) It meens that you want to use a specific shoutbox on EACH page.
You can use these 2 keywords with :
@archives (only rubric, here.) and
Finally, if you want to use the shoutbox in a page template you've done by yourself, enter:

August 25, 2016
Happy Birthday Linux! You're 25! When Linux was born on Aug. 25, 1991, it was little more than a hobby for 21-year old Linus Torvald.

Latest Slackware Version Doesn't Cut Newbies any Slack
August 22, 2016
Slackware is one of those Linux distros often described as being difficult to use. The Slackware Project version 14.2 released on July 1 does little to change that view -- at least, as far as installing it is concerned. Its KDE desktop is probably the most contemporary trait. Other than an update under the hood, it offers little that's new in terms of usability and few new features.
To Protect Enterprise Data, Secure the Code
August 20, 2016
Responsibility for securing enterprise applications has been moving down the development lifecycle, and for good reason.

Smart eBikes Take a Stab at Seriousness but Sound Ridiculous
Michael Schumacher had twinkly eyes when he got his new bike, or at least that's what Daimler said in its press release.
Whether or not that was true, Schumacher and Nico Rosberg are the two first people to own the new Smart ebike. They received them at the Circuit de Catalunya near Barcelona where we would like to imagine both racers riding around for a few minutes making "vroom" noises and looking silly.
Funny as it would be, there's nothing silly about the €2849 price tag that translates to roughly $3,700 dollars. It's hard to imagine how smart you would really feel cruising around on an almost-$4000 bicycle. Well, it does get you over 100 kilometers on one charge from the 400-Wh lithium-ion battery, so at least you are getting some bang for your buck.
The Smart ebike will be available in April with two color options: white with green "trim" as seen above or matte grey with orange.
Smart describes the bike as if it were a car in its release, try not to chuckle.
"As a pedelec (Pedal Electric Cycle) the smart ebike is strictly speaking a hybrid vehicle: the electric motor switches on as soon as the rider starts pedalling. Muscle power is transmitted to the rear wheel via a lubricant-free, durable and quiet belt drive in place of a conventional bicycle chain."
It's a good thing the geniuses at Smart decided to make it "rear-wheel drive" because all that power would probably lead to some serious wheel hop during drag races. You've been put on notice, world. Stay off the sidewalks.

Posted on 09/13/2007 12:59:08 PM PDT by Fedora
click here to read article
Ummmm. Vegas. The perfect place to launder money. As they say, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. Next line of defense from the Hsu polishers.
Hsu was great at playing Keno. Or maybe it was the horses !
A HSU box
Looks like Dingy Harry has a Chink in his armour.
Outstanding! But we know this will never taint the undertaker or any other elected democrat. They are without morals so lying, cheating, any illegal fundraising, it's all irrelevant unless it is a Republican in the spotlight. The democrat party is thoroughly corrupt. They now have control of the House and Senate. Do we actually think they will even dump William Jefferson who was caught hiding marked tens of thousands in his home freezer? Come on! But I do applaud your tenacity in digging this all out. Keep up the good work, perhaps someday Americans will start to care that the democrat party is empowered by the blood of the aborted little ones and sustained by graft and absolute corruption.
Rove, Hsu Magnificent Bastard!
It is time we accept and punish this kind of criminal activity. We have politicians being bought outright by outsiders not of this country making decisions for our country but definitly not in the interest of our country. It is time we send a clear message when voting from this day forward, It is time to take back America and punish the traitors!
"Sock!!! Harry, it's your fault our approval raings are so low."
"Ouch. Back off, Nancy. You ain't so hot, yourself."
Nice job. Thanks.
I'll take a wack at this as time permits. Great job though.
Anyone at the national level following this should go to the Clark County Assessor's office:
Type in Reid and Harry and you will find the 200 acres of land he and his family has bought in Searchlight. Problem is, that land is dry as a bone, only way it's worth anything is if Reid and his son Rory pull a miracle out of the political corruption bag and steal some water. Friend of Harry is developer Jim Rhodes, who has a development across the way in Arizona, which somehow wrangled water.
Here's the big deals, Jay Brown is a partner with Reid in some of the land. Jay Brown is a "former" partner of Oscar Goodman, now Las Vegas mayor and "former" lawyer to the mob. Jay Brown was also part of another crooked deal with Reid that hit the news just before the 2006 election but was crushed. Jay Brown hooks to Rhodes. Rhodes gave bad bundled contributions to Reid and one Dario Herrera (Reid's protege for Congress in 2002 now doing slammer time fortaking bribes from titty bar owner Michael Galardi). Erin Kenny (slated for the Lt. Governor slot), another Reid protege, is still on Rhodes payroll but is headed to the slammer for taking developer bribes, titty bar bribes, etc. etc.
I could go on and on and on. Harry is one dirty politician who plays on his goody Mormon issue and everyone covers up for both Reid and Oscar Goodman.
"By April 2007, FEC documents indicate that Giarraputo had been replaced as Searchlight Leadership Fund treasurer by Memphis-based attorney Claude E. Zobell, Jr. A Utah native, Zobell is the brother of Charles Zobell, managing editor of the Las Vegas Review-Journal. He served on the US District Court of Nevada in the early 1980s, when Reid was chairman of the Nevada Gaming Commission. He became Reids first chief of staff in 1983 when Reid became a Congressman, and he has prepared Reids financial disclosures since then, including the disclosures misreporting Reids dealings with Jay Brown."
The guy you need to look up is Don Williams, political consultant/culinary/quasi mafia link who helped on Reid's failed early campaign in the 70's. Don's actually a good guy, but he knows where the bodies are buried.
Bump for later read — good research, thank you
Thanks for the tips. There's stuff on his Searchlight properties in his Senate financial disclosures, too. Some of the other folks you mention connect with the Strippergate investigation. I snipped a lot out to keep this short, but like you say, it goes on and on. . .
Thanks for the ping!
GSting is the name of strippergate (as you call it). Be wary, everyone is linked together. Oscar Goodman - Jay Brown - Harry Reid - Dario Herrera - Erin Kenny - Lance Malone - Jim Rhodes - the police - A lot of people already going to jail. Wonder why the national media are too stupid to do their homework.
A big question is who squashed the investigations just prior to the 2006 election? There were at least an AP group and an LA Times group after Harry and it all dried up. I wonder if anyone in the FBI ever reads this stuff?
Caught in the Searchlight: Hsu, Reid, and the Searchlight Leadership Fund
The dogged researcher Fedora, shows that Hillary is not the only one with a Hsu problem. Harry Reid is also intimately tied to the mysterious donor with no visible means of support.
Great work!
Federal Election Commission documents record that on May 17, 2007, Hsu donated $1,000 to the Searchlight Leadership Fund, a political action committee associated with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid... These donations to Searchlight expose a funding conduit reaching to the heart of Harry Reid's political machine. The financial trail stretches back to Reid's hometown, his longtime business associate Jay Brown, and his Nevada gambling industry patrons; and it connects the Hsu affair to scandal-ridden lobbyists William Oldaker and Jack Abramoff, Reid's financial consigliere Claude Zobell, and a political action committee targeting freshmen Congressmen.Thanks Fred!
Yeah, Strippergate goes by the name GSting/G-sting, too, there's a Las Vegas and a San Diego end to it. I forget which name it's keyworded under here.
I think AP and LAT are still on the story, but they need support from law enforcement and the courts, which they're obviously not going to get locally from Oscar Goodman's people. . .Don't know what DOJ has been doing with it, I'm pretty sure the Bureau has been following it but once an investigation gets handed off to DOJ you get into the type of complications you see in the William Jefferson case, where you've got hard evidence but there's all kinds of 4th Amendment red tape the lawyers can keep tied up for years. Bringing down someone in Reid's position is no small task. Still, it can happen. Jim Wright had to resign.
I heard that got picked up, hadn't seen the actual link yet. Thanks for the heads-up!
Quick! I think Rush picked your story up! 12:24:pm 9-14-07
Reid wrote letters helpful to the Indian tribes for Abramoff. What did Hillary do for Hsu in return for $850,000?
Thanks! I missed it, but I'll see if I can find it online.
Thanks for the link. Another way to approach the excellent question you raise: what donor could afford $850,000?
This is also a Must Read on Lucianne's site!!
Great job, as usual.
Thanks, mabelkitty!—good to see you! :-)

RE: Mentawai overland in February« Reply #1 on: November 15 2011 03:11:00 »
Hey Michael,
I was looking for some information about visiting mentawai islands for surfing on a low budget.
Since your trip must be over by now, I would really like to know how it worked. On google I only found those expensive surf camps, but no information how to surf there for not so much money...
How did you get around, where did you surf and stay? How much did you spent at the end?
I'm planning to go there in february 2012...
Thank you so much!

Even if these prices are off, if any of you got a pair of size 13's this morning, its your lucky day
i'm convinced this was my downfall today. i went for the 13's instead of just trying to grab the first thing i saw. there's literally only 2 on ebay right now, that i could find at least. croatian's for 1500 the other 1800. i checked out as fast as possible and they were sold out. everything i went for this year i was able to get. cdg, kate moss etc. used autofill and everything, so i like to think i at least sorta knew what i was doing. anyway i fucked up. once i saw they were sold out i went back and the site started lagging a little and all that i saw were left were like 10 and 10.5 and maybe one other around that size, but i knew it was way too late by then. i fucked up man.

Add illuminated personality to your space with this 5-light arc floor lamp.
The distinctive design of this floor lamp features five arms with domed shaped frosted glass shades and a black marble base. This floor lamp has mid-century appeal. The five lights arc up and out gracefully from the base, providing lighting for reading or other tasks.

Customers most agreed on the following attributes:
Great illumination and I like the looks. Only negative is the balance--after falling over and breaking a lamp and lamp cover when I moved the chair out it was sitting behind, I have to put a 20# weight on the base to provide stability. Now I have to figure out how to order a bulb and shade.

Cardwell's Deal or No Deal
HSG On Loser Dems
Obama the Stoic
by Michael
May Day marked the middle of spring like Groundhog's Day acknowledges the middle of winter.
Let me share the strange tale of the firing of Maj. Gen. Errol R. Schwartz who is in charge of the joint forces gathered for the inauguration on Friday.
He "has spent months" helping with the planning of protection of the President-Elect/President, along with everyone else. In other words, this requires a high degree of coordination. The Washington Post broke the story and gives explicit detail. Here are the specifics...
Establishment favorite neo-liberal Hillary Clinton faced an unexpectedly strong challenge from self-proclaimed socialist Bernie Sanders in the Democratic primaries. Ultimately, Clinton lost disastrously in November to historically unpopular billionaire Donald Trump who posed as an economic populist. Sanders is now probably the most well-liked politician in America. Under these circumstances, you could be forgiven for expecting a chastened shrunken Democratic Senate minority to unite behind an unabashedly progressive economic agenda, but you'd be wrong.
I get things wrong
sometimes--or most of the time.
They are currently playing Have Gun Will Travel on one of the five cable stations dedicated to old tv shows available to me.
From the age of 7 or so I came to wonder at how someone could go through life with the first name of 'Wire'.
As an adult, I thought that one of the stars of L&O was Christ North.
Long before one line of NAFTA was written, manufacturing in the United States was dying. Not just factory after factory was shuttered, but entire industries were shipped out of the country, until virtually noting remained. While it is not part of this discussion, as manufacturing left, the strength of unions bled out onto the broken foundations of the dead factory floors. By the 1970's there was already the movement from an Industrial to Post Industrial society, and the burning question was 'Could a society that produced nothing survive?' (Something that is still a viable question) However, the question that was not raised until much later was 'Can the middle class survive?'
That shouldn't be too hard...
And the right is worried... From NRO - January 15, 2017
Representative John C. Lewis does not view Donald Trump as a legitimate President.Lewis believes that Russia and other forces aided Trump's victory. Trump responded with a predictable, insulting tweet condemning Lewis for being all talk and no action. Trump also told Lewis to work on improving the poor, black, and crime-infested neighborhood that the Civil Rights icon represents. Trump has no idea about the location of Lewis', Trump operates from racial bias. Lewis's district includes wealthy areas like Buckhead, the airport, and Georgia Tech. Trump cannot envision a black man representing a wealthy community. Trump is a racist.
Calling Donald Trump's rise to the highest seat in the United States eventful is an understatement. In about one week, Trump will take the stage and officially be inaugurated as the 45h President of the United States. However, Trump's inauguration raises plenty of questions. Here is what you can expect to see in Washington D.C. on January 20th.
Keep an eye peeled for this one...
'Snowfall': How One Year During The 1980s Changed A Los Angeles Neighborhood
Maybe I am naive.
Please just read Ducky.
He just scared the shit out of me.
Read his comments of course.
I do not know how best to advertise this.
No one is listening....or hearing...or reading.....
IMHO in specifying today that the "Illegitimate son of Obama care" will be passed on the same day as the burial of its oft-mocked predecessor Donald the T is committing that Trumpcare will offer equivalent benefits.
Particularly since he was extremely clear during the campaign that he agreed with Obamacare's pre existing condition clause.

Obamacare was never about health care for Republicans. That's why they still don't have a health care plan of their own. Republicans don't do health care, because the 1% doesn't need one. For Republicans, it was always about Obamacare taxes, on the rich. Taxes which fund health insurance subsidies for the poor and the middle class. Eliminating those taxes is job one this week. And don't ever believe the GOP will ever pass any tax to replace those funds. The health care industry is in 'disarray' with how this comes out.
run in circles , scream and shout.
1. Trump's not Putin .Yeah he'll be an undignified President but not a dumb or mean one .Personallly I agree with him (and Keynes)that "all goods should be homespun". Maybe clutching at straws but I'm hoping Ivanka will be a "friend at Court" re Global Warming.
We survived worse . Nixonl
2. If we retake the Senate in 2 years we can save Roe.
3. We increase the odds of that if the only demonstrating we do is
to demonstrate our support of Chuck Schumer.

First, let's meet...
Viktor Zolotov and his "Men in Black." (wiki)
Director of the National Guard of Russia
(born 27 January 1954)
I knew the country was in trouble as soon as it became obvious donald would win. But I had no idea how bad it would be.
Pretty grim . . .
With Trump's inauguration still weeks away, Robert Kuttner of the American Prospect is calling for progressives to begin building a public case for impeachment by "keep[ing] a running dossier [on Trump's illegal actions] and forward[ing] updates at least weekly to the House Judiciary Committee." Salon's Heather "Digby" Parton is echoing Kuttner. It's a terrible idea.
There is no chance it will succeed. The only way to remove a president is first for a majority of the House of Representatives to vote for impeachment and next for two thirds of the Senate to vote for conviction. Given the extant evidence, neither the Republican House nor the Republican Senate will accede to the wishes of those seeking Trump's removal.
How does Donald Trump, who has sold himself as a 'populist', plan to deal with the economic disparity in the country? The same way he seems to do most things; he doubles down on inequality.
Buried in the Ethics brouhaha . . .

Senate Text of the Repeal Resolution
Senate Budget Committee Chairman Senator Mike Enzi (R-WY).
I came upon the greatest holiday musical comedy of all time.
Christian Bale plays the drums.
This cinematic masterpiece chronicles events occurring between the years of 2002 and 2008.
Republican Congress as usual?
Sorry for the crudeness, but it really chafes me that the Republicon laundry list, that they spent the last FOUR YEARS 'practicing', is in anyway positive for the people of the United States?
Who wins by cutting taxes for the wealthy?
Who wins by removing regulations (read constraints to protect: the people, consumers, our social institutions, the environment, etc)?
Who wins by cutting Medicaid - medical care for the poor?
Who wins by CORPORATIZING (aka 'privatizing') the VA, education, social security, medicare, and on and on?
When people talk about money in politics, they are usually referring to money expended on elections, but you [Peracles] show that that's just the tip of an iceberg of communications infrastructure the goes much deeper and wider below the surface. It's this infrastructure that creates the, how to put it? the group state of mind that drives many elections. Focusing on elections is focusing too late. By the time the election comes along, the battle is half over because the mental ground has long ago been prepared.
To help analyze his Obama's foreign policy and national security, Derek Davison spoke with two eminent foreign policy analysts: historian Andrew Bacevich of Boston University's Pardee School of Global Studies and political scientist John Mearsheimer of the University of Chicago.
Last, week, under the cover of a media bliss-out except among Koch funded right-wing channels, the House of Representatives passed a bill which would effectively repeal future standard setting under every important environmental, public health, consumer protection, labor standards, occupational safety and civil rights law on the books.
The bill, called the REINS Act, requires that any future major regulation adopted by an Executive Agency — say a new toxic chemical standard required by the recently enacted Chemical Safety Act, or a new consumer protection rule about some innovative but untested kind of food additive — must be approved by a specific resolution in each House of Congress within 70 days to take effect.
Business as usual, keep the Clinton connection going...
Manning will be released on May 17 from Fort Leavenworth Military Prison, where she would otherwise have been detained until 2045.
Just read it.
Scroll past the ad hominems...
I thought this was an insightful and constructive way forward.
American foreign policy is at a crossroads. One path for the US is global cooperation. The other is a burst of militarism in response to frustrated ambitions. The future of the US, and of the world, hangs on this choice.

KLRU-TV, Austin PBS, in collaboration with Conspirare, is bringing Considering Matthew Shepard to television. KLRU has assembled an award-winning team to help adapt the three-part oratorio into a unique theatrical experience for the small screen. The Considering Matthew Shepard television adaptation will be formatted for a 90-minute broadcast and distributed nationally to PBS stations in 2018 to commemorate the 20th anniversary of Shepard's death. The performance will be recorded live in front of an invitation-only audience February 1 at 7:30 pm at ACL LIve at The Moody Theater. Watch a trailer here.
Considering Matthew Shepard is a Grammy-nominated three-part oratorio composed by Craig Hella Johnson. The work is an evocative and compassionate musical response to the murder of Matthew Shepard. On October 6, 1998, University of Wyoming student Matthew Shepard was kidnapped, beaten, and left to die, in what became an infamous act of brutality, and one of America's most notorious anti-gay hate crimes. Shepard's murder ultimately led to the creation of the Matthew Shepard Foundation and provided a catalyst for legislation that expanded the definition of a hate crime to include sexual orientation. In 2009, Congress passed the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act. Composer Craig Hella Johnson had a profoundly personal reaction to both the murder and its resonance. The Shepard family and Foundation engaged with Johnson in the creation of the work, and allowed the use of fragments from Shepard's personal diary.
"We are honored to be partnering with Conspirare to bring this important and meaningful work to a national audience," said Sara Robertson, KLRU's VP for Production and Technology. "Considering Matthew Shepard is a powerful piece that connects with you on different emotional levels. We feel public television is the perfect medium to share this message and encourage community conversations around the themes of acceptance and human rights."
Considering Matthew Shepard isn't strictly a biographical work but rather a reflection of our society and our collective experience told through the lens of one individual story. One of the most remarkable elements of Shepard's continuing legacy is the powerful inspiration his life and death have provided to artists of every genre. Considering Matthew Shepard joins the ranks of many significant artistic responses to Matthew Shepard's legacy. Most noteworthy is The Laramie Project by Moises Kaufman and the Members of the Tectonic Theater Project, which has been seen by more than 30 million people. Jason Marsden, Executive Director of the Matthew Shepard Foundation calls Considering Matthew Shepard "by far the most intricate, beautiful and unyielding artistic response to this notorious anti-gay hate crime."

Produced by KLRU and directed by Peabody Award winning Broadcaster and Producer Elliott Forrest, the music's storytelling will be supported by visuals explicitly designed to appeal to the television viewing audience. The backdrop of the stage with be a large screen for projections and will augment the storyline and libretto through color, video and text.
The recording of Considering Matthew Shepard on the harmonia mundi / [PIAS] label debuted at #4 on Billboard's Traditional Classical Chart in mid-September, 2016. The Chicago Tribune called it "one of the best classical albums of 2016."
"This exciting collaboration with KLRU, feels for us like the opportunity of a lifetime, said Craig Hella Johnson, Founder and Artistic Director Conspirare. "The musicians and I are deeply committed to sharing the light and power in the story of Matthew Shepard. We feel that this television production will bring both his story and Conspirare's music to a much broader national audience. I am inspired by the level of talent, imagination, and dedication that I experience in our KLRU colleagues. Perhaps best of all, this has that great feeling of being an Austin-based creation and partnership. I feel so grateful that KLRU is bringing their distinctive brand and love to this project."
The film will be accompanied by outreach and engagement programs, providing opportunities – facilitated by public television stations- for communities to participate in a national conversation about acceptance, compassion and bullying. Considering Matthew Shepard is a co-production of KLRU-TV, Austin PBS and Conspirare.

Taste of Black Austin is a culinary event that explores the narrative of economic development through the historical context of food. The event will open with an intimate reception on January 31, 2017 at Peached Social House featuring savory hors d'oeuvres prepared by nine of Austin's favorite Black chefs and a curated photo exhibition showcasing Austin's unique food history dating back to 1870.
Event tickets are available for $65 and community sponsor tickets are available for $120 and include a VIP cooking demonstration preceding the reception. A portion of the proceeds from the event will benefit Urban Roots. In 2008, Urban Roots began as a program of another youth development nonprofit to empower and develop Austin youth and promote healthy lifestyle choices.
Taste of Black Austin allows guests the opportunity to taste various hors d'oeuvres that have been recreated to chronicle Black food history in Central Texas from 1870 to present. The menu will feature bite sized portions of dishes found in archived recipe books and historic menu selections.
