'Martial law' paranoids: I'm starting to gloat
Exclusive: Barry Farber reiterates his opposition to those predicting 'state of emergency'
Some of you out there make me feel like the traveling salesman who got home a day earlier than expected and was met by his 6-year-old son squalling that there was a naked man upstairs in Momma's closet.
"Marvin," said the father, "There's no naked man in Momma's closet."
"Oh, yes there is!" wailed Marvin. After a few such exchanges the father grabbed the boy's hand and said, "C'mon, Marvin, I'll show you." They proceeded up the stairs, and when the father opened the closet door, sure enough, there was his best friend crouched amidst the wardrobe; buck naked.
"For cryin' out loud, Harry," yelled the father. "Haven't you got anything better to do than go around scaring little kids?"
Ever since a large segment of you readers have been quarreling with me over whether or not the Obama regime is plotting disorder in America to justify imposing martial law and canceling the elections, I've been dutifully "opening all the closet doors" to check. Unlike the chastened father in the story, there's been no "there" there.
Let me restate my position. Even those who agree with me don't use these words. Too strident. Sorry. I use them deliberately and raise my voice. You who fear Super-Shenanigan 001 have picked the wrong country. This is the USA and – here are the extremist words – It Can't Happen Here!
And with less than 20 days to go before the voting, it's time to launch "Gloat-Pack One." This is not my final chortle on the matter; far from it. Gloat-Pack Five comes after the peaceful Inauguration.
Where is your "planned disorder"? Literally every hour that now elapses makes such a hateful act more and more suspicious, more and more obvious as an attempted "October Surprise" and Dirty Trick and less and less likely to succeed. Yes, this country has fallen far down from the country it once was; but it once was so great we can fall still a bit more and still say, with ground-kissing gratitude, "It can't happen here!"
We're seeing other things, however, as "closets" open day by day. We see a Romney-Obama debate that the experts dismissed as "a good night for Romney, worth a few-point bump for a few days." They couldn't understand at first that it signaled the dismantling of the aura of Obama's political invincibility and would continue to do its anti-Obama mischief all the way to the end. The Romney-termites continue to feast on Obama-wood as a result of that first debate.
Then we saw, for the first time in our history, a vice president behave so dreadfully in debate that the entire scorekeeping mechanism melted down and disappeared into a two-word wrap-up: Biden failed.
We saw headlines that used the word "collapsed," as in, "Obama's Lead in Florida Collapsed." We saw entire sections of the world show murderous hatred for America – a phenomenon that nevertheless failed to diminish big-media praise for Obama's foreign policy. I grew up ridiculing the lying machines of dictators, not moaning at the obvious lies of my own country. George Haas, a prisoner of war of the Germans, told how his captors passed out a daily "newsletter" letting the American POWs know how the war was progressing. Each day offered glowing accounts of great German victories. George and his buddies quickly noticed, however, that each day's German "victory" was a little closer to Berlin than the victory the day before! We out-fought the Nazis in the 1940s. It took decades before we learned to out-lie them.
There's something supremely insulting about the insinuation that this beloved America has become the kind of country that spawns disorder leading to martial law leading to forgetting about elections. An insult that's truthful remains true, but this one's a lie. History is a kind of casino. And I've got all my chips on "It can't happen here!"
One delightful thing did happen in the middle of all this. Only seldom do jokes come true, but the day after the Biden-Ryan debate White House press secretary Jay Carney was jumped by reporters demanding to know how Vice President Biden could say, "We didn't know they were calling for more security at our consulate in Benghazi." It was apparent that whoever his "we" were, were among the few on the planet who did not know that. Poor Carney said, "The vice president was speaking for himself and the president. He was not speaking for the administration."
By that, Carney meant that the State Department knew all about the calls for added security, but note the wording: "He was not speaking for the administration."
Ride with me back to the mid-1950s. President Dwight Eisenhower stumbled so badly throughout a White House press conference that his press secretary, James Hagerty, sank into depression. Afterwards, a Hagerty aide asked him, "We've got to put out a statement. What can we say?"
Hagerty thought for a moment and then said, "All we can say is, 'The president does not speak for this administration!'"

intravitreal aflibercept injection 2mg
Detailed Description:
This is an open label study to evaluate the efficacy of intravitreal aflibercept injection 2mg in patients with a persistent FVPED despite at least 6 consecutive injections with ranibizumab 0.5 mg.
Patients being evaluated at VRM New York with neovascular AMD who have persistent sub-foveal FVPED on OCT despite at least 6 consecutive ranibizumab injections will be considered for the study.
We aim to recruit 25 patients in the study. There have been no statistical tests to calculate sample size; sample size of 25 patients is chosen, making sure that it is feasible financially to conduct the study and logistically to complete the study within 24 weeks. This is a pilot study to assess the effects of intravitreal aflibercept injection on chronic, persistent FVPEDs; currently there is no data regarding visual and anatomical outcomes for this group of patients.
Patients will be reviewed at baseline and then at 4 week intervals (28 ± 7 days). They will receive intravitreal intravitreal aflibercept injection 2mg at each visit. The primary end point of the study is 24 weeks from baseline. Patients who complete the study will have received 6 injections of intravitreal aflibercept injection 2mg.

Poland Gets 1st Openly Gay Rabbi Tuesday, June 23, 2009 WARSAW, Poland When Rabbi Aaron Katz walks the streets of Warsaw's former Jewish quarter, scenes of that lost world fill his imagination: Families headed to synagogue, women in their kitchens cooking Sabbath meals, his father as a boy with the sidecurls of an Orthodox Jew. But Katz's life could hardly be more different from that prewar eastern European culture, at least in one key respect: He is Poland's first openly gay rabbi. Born in Argentina 53 years ago to parents who fled Poland before the Holocaust, Katz is the...

Who cares anymore? The show used to be so fresh and witty, and now the plots are staid and JD and Blond Doctor are just obnoxiously self-absorbed. First! Where's my trophy?
Dang! Uh? First?
I read the AP story hours ago! Frick!
It reminds me of the time when th Janitor and I went to....
Hands down this badboy is the funniest program on television. Scrubs is one of only two television shows I actually go out of my way to watch (the other being lost). So I'm all about this thing being picked up again, regardless of which network it would air on...
It's an uneven show - sometimes hilarious, and sometimes trying way too hard. But it long ago ran its course and is now just overtaying its welcome.
gorko let me guess, your other funniest show on TV is the american version of the Office. your favorite recording artist is this years winner from american idol. and your favorite restaurant is the olive garden
Yeah yeah we can moan all we want that it hit its peak a couple of seasons ago but it still manages to deliver the good stuff with the majority of the side characters, even if some of the more main characters have become tired and annoying. Though Cox is still awesome.

 And it's good to know that they'll get to do a proper season finale, even if it's not at its peak i wouldn't want them to just end it on some random ep.
Olive Garden is high quality dining. Right up there with Red Lobster!...Hold on Dear! I gotta put on ma dress t-shirt!
Until I hear word on that, I can't make room for it.
This was the last season. Surely the Writer's Strike hasn't fucked it up that much...
This was the last season. Surely the Writer's Strike hasn't fucked it up that much...
They just ran out of material.
That show had at least 3 more seasons in it.
but if I want really good spaghetti, I'll just go to my Mom's...oh yeah, this is about Scrubs, which consistently IS the funniest show on TV, and deserves to finish itself off properly. Wonder, though, why ABC would order almost a season's worth of new stuff--as this season is indeed supposed to be the finale. Still, if they DO pick it up, it'd be nice if they treated the show a tad bit better than NBC did: it seemed that at one point the peacock would have rather put a reality show called EAT A BOWL OF SHIT in the proper timeslot than Scrubs...though given what passes for popular today, I suppose the Nielsens woulda been pretty high on that one, eh?
Go run over your dog Spot and put his guts in a bag and stuff em in a drawer, then forget about it for a month and a half. Hubba hubba hubba hubba hubba!
This is the network that cancelled "Sports Night" and kept "According to Jim" on the air.
I am a fan. ABC, WB, TNT, DVD, doesn't matter. I have to find out the janitors name. And if Mickhead killed his wife. And what happens to Beardface. And Snoop Dogg Resident.
What the fuck is wrong with Olive Garden or Red Lobster? Seems to me like decent food, low-key atmosphere, and reasonable prices. My hipster-meter doesn't go high enough, evidently.
I thought once J.D. let everyone know that he really was in love with Black Scrubs and there was that awkward pause because Black Scrubs did not feel the same way and then the janitor came in and shot everyone to death because he really was a schizophrenic.
love scrubs, never gets old, pick it up ABC
if u wanna get rid of shows that have "overstayed its welcome" ...start with the simpsons, how has that not got old after 14 yrs ?....and 7th heaven shoulda been cancelled after jessica biel left the show, but they dragged that on for another what ? 6 years ?
Ok, that came out wrong. Still one of my favourite shows. I'm currently watching season 1 again. My Occurrence is still the best episode to date. I don't want them to make another season, just let them finish season 7 properly. Zach Braff wants to quit anyway. Wouldn't be the same without him.
This show is past its prime. Way past.
There's nothing wrong with Olive Garden. It's a perfectly fine chain restaurant, not great, better than most. But arrogant putzes can't insult something that everybody knows is bad, like McDonalds... because they wouldn't get the little tingle they get by setting themselves above the masses, the sheeple, or whatever elitist term they like to apply to everyone other than themselves. Fundamentally, they have a weak and crippled ego, and seek to ease their pain by saying "You know X that you think is good? I'm so much better than you that X is far beneath me." The better X truly is, the more of a temporary self-esteem fix they get by deriding it.
If they didn't have LOST, I wouldn't even notice ABC was still on the air.
just put it on ABC.
... but, years ago, one of the greatest dramadies of all time - "SPORTS NIGHT" ... gets axed after two way-to-short seasons. No justice in television, amen. So say me all. Cooiiinnngggg !
Sorry someone had to qoute that old ditty. Might as well be me.
The only characters worth watching on that show anymore are Janitor and Dr. Cox, and even that's getting to be a stretch nowadays. Heh-heh..."Cox"...
Not because I'm "too cool". But I live in an Italian neighborhood. When I want pasta I take my ass to "Toscas" and when I want seafood I'll go to City Island. People who knock both are lame. Nothing wrong with those restaurants or Outback or Cheesecake Factory. Anyhow Scrubs is funny. But let it go out this year. How many seasons has it been so far? And I agree, Arrested was great. I still laugh at the DVDs as if I never saw the show before.
i thought the show was ending because zach wanted to move on? if abc gets it does this mean no JD? or have they offered him a lot of money?
And it's treading water as it is. When people think of Scrubs, do they really think of a show that lasted 7 or 8 years?
Bring it back, don't bring it back. Either decision will be fine with most Scrubs fans, as long as they are allowed to end the show the way they planned to.
Doctor Cox calls Zach by a girl's name. ZZZZZZZZ.
with Olive Garden or Red Lobster is that there are som people, I'm not saying anyone on this board, but there are some people that consider Olive Garden to be the height of cooking, that there isn't anything better out there, and that's not true. Don't get me wrong, I like Olive Garden and it is somewhat of a treat for me to go as i don't have any italian resturants in my town.
taht and it's popular int he midwest, in the "blue" states if you will, and there are those who just like to deride anything that others like because it makes them feel good about themselves.
I used ot have this same problem with music, I loved Sugar Ray, when noone knew about them, but once Fly hit the radio i was like "this is crap, this is garbage, this is shit"
TV is the same, Scrubs was popular on-line back when it first started, I believe it was even one of those "the best shows you're not watching" things, but then once it was given a chance and people started watching it adn it was catching on, then it became popular and so all the 'cool' kids hated it.
you can find it with movies, books, etc. it's just the nature of the beast
That the writers for this show are the types that refer to each other as "bro's".
Its clever and heartwarming and teaches important life stuff to thick people, long may it continue.
Breach of contract or something?
Chipotle is the PWN!
This is crap.
Why not get Journeyman in a buy one get one free deal....Those peacock pricks don't know a good thing when they see one.... Can't wait for the Scrubs ride at Magic Kingdom!!
That's a serious question. I've seen episodes from each season and haven't laughed once.
Carla and Elliot are shocked when they find JD and Turk consumating their "man love" in a supply closet. They turn to each other and shrug, knowing it was inevitable. Looking longingly into each other eyes, they start making out in the hallway. Doctor Cox and Kelso die from a brain anurysm from trying to outdo each other. The janitor drives away in Cox' stolen Porche moments before the hospital explodes due a bomb he planted earlier.
there has been a serious slip in quality in the last two seasons. It's time to let this one go already. It may mean we're afflicted w/ another Zach Braff Film because of it but I'll take that hit.
Did I miss anything?
last week...and you have not lived till you've seen a Zach Braff nude love scene. Wait, yes you have. And the movie sucked.
I would have thought Ted would be the one to plant the bomb.
His flop sweat would have deactivated it.
he he
Still better than 3/4 of the schlock on television, and that's including a weak sixth season. I'm all for ABC picking it up and running with it one more year, especially if they treat it well, something NBC almost never did. And why does this site barely mention Scrubs anymore? Tis a shame.
Now can we coax the Cloverfield monster out of hiding and lay waste to Jim and his breed? :)
the chick gets the shit beat out of her and duct taped to a wall with a sign over her head that says 'Hi! I'm a whore!' More women should do it that way, I tell ya what!
Scrubs rules. Always has been funny. Always will be.
See what happened. All the boring talk put TomBodet to sleep. Nice job.
typing on the internet was toooo much exercise for him, or he just jacked off..either/or ......lol
It's not what it used to be, that's for sure. But it had a pretty good run and I'd hate to see them robbed of a final goodbye.
Those two were never intended to end up together, I don't even know why the writers started stinging that old plot thread along again. Definitely my favorite show 3 years ago. But then it kept going.
I enjoy the show, but it's getting to the point where they need to stop. I don't want to see Scrubs go out like X-Files or That 70's Show, they need to go out like Arrested Development, with style.
Really whats up with that?

I'm a roadie. I'm with the Canadian National team to ride the track in L.A., California. No gears, no brakes, no asphalt... except on our recovery rides, for now.
Every morning priority number one is to score hotel java from the lobby, and grab a few oranges for my fridge-stash, and oatmeal bars for snacks at the track. I whip up a bowl of magic oatmeal, and clear out e-mails that have come in on East Coast time. The bag gets packed with my collection of gears, chainrings and tools (I've never wrenched so much in my life. Good thing track mechanics are easy...). Thanks Martin Rooseboom (2524 Hochelaga, Montréal) for lending me what I need. And I never forget my tube of DZ Nuts Bliss shammy cream anymore. It's my new favorite. Especially since the saddle on my loaner track bike and I don't have a great relationship...
Track sessions always start with a 20 minute warm up. We spin around in a paceline, going progressively faster. 1 lap-to-go always feels like balls-to-the-wall speed.
Hammering out near-maximum efforts for 4km with my teammates, reefing on the pedals to shoot my bike forward from standing-starts, whipping up and down the track walls when we do our exchanges, and holding a tight, straight line down at the base of the track (the pole line) despite those HUGE G-forces as we spin at unheard of (OK, for a road cyclist...) cadences are all things that are going to pay off once I get out on the road to start racing next month.
But the best thing about the track is the consistent environment. The conditions are reproducible and our efforts are easy to measure. That means when there's something to fix or improve, we keep giving the same thing a shot, making minor adjustments, until we NAIL IT ON THE HEAD.

Whispbar S46 Base Rack Instruction Manual (.pdf)
Whispbar warranty and registration information
Installed these racks on my factory side rails and by themselves they look like a factory cross rails. Then I installed the Yakima FATCAT 6 Ski racks and it is a fabulous looking installation and really quiet. You can tilt the sunroof with the ski bindings up but if you carry the skis back to back you have to leave the sunroof untitled but can open it. Great combination that doesn't destroy the appearance of your X5. This is my 3rd setup from Rack Attack and will be back in the future.
2011 BMW X5 Sport Activity
The fit and finish of this product is fantastic, however, the s46 bars state they can extended to 50 inches. fully extended tip to tip they measure out at 47.5". So otherwise not being as long as advertised, and therefor not working. they otherwise look and mount great.
Below you will find a list of the most frequently asked questions for this product. If you need more assistance you can email a rack-install technician, or call us at: 1-888-399-7225
It depends on the car. If the other vehicle has the same style of factory mounting points (such as they both have raised rails), then as long as the bars are wide enough you should have no problem moving the rack between the two vehicles.
With so many different cars out there, we need to carry a wide range of roof rack components. To see what has been made specifically to fit your vehicle, enter your vehicle information in our base rack fit guide.
All required tools and instructions for the Whispbar S46 Base Rack are provided. No particular expertise required, just be sure to follow the instructions closely. While installation times vary depending on your vehicle and racks purchased, installations typically take from 15-60 minutes.

Although my "go to" recipe is delicious and definitely a staple in my recipe archives, I came across a guacomole recipe that was calling my name, that I needed to try sooner rather than later. When I came across this recipe on Pinterest, I knew I
This recipe is different from any other guacomole recipe I've ever had or made. It varies in multiple ways. The typical guacomole recipe consist of tomatoes, onions, a dash of hot sauce, lime juice, salt, pepper and sometimes cilantro. Never have I heard of a guacomole recipe including cheese, much less goat cheese. I loved the fact that this recipe varied from the norm but yet was simple in the flavors it included. Although this recipe called for few ingredients, each ingredient had a lot of flavor and when combined they all made an amazing dip! The sharp and tangy goat cheese, acidity from the lime, buttery avocados and the bright earthyness from the cilantro. It was definitely love at first bite. I had to stop myself from finishing every, last bite because this stuff is so good. I can honestly say I'm addicted to this guacomole, I will be making this again and again.
Goate Cheese and Roasted Pablano Guacomole
4 Ripe avocados
1 Pablano pepper
3/4 Cup crumbled goat cheese
Juice from 1 1/2 Limes
1 Cup chopped cilantro
3 Cloves garlic, minced
Salt and pepper, to taste
*Preheat broiler and arrange the rack on the setting the furthest from the broiler burner. Place the pablano pepper in a broiler safe dish, place in the oven for two to four minutes turning throughout the cooking process. Check the pepper frequently to ensure it doesn't burn. Once the pepper charred, remove from the oven and place in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap.
*The charring process can be achieved by holding the pepper over the flame of a gas burner.
Meanwhile, remove skin and seeds from the avocados and place the avocados in a bowl. Add the salt, pepper, and lime juice to the avocados. Using a fork, gently mash the avocados and begin to incorporate the ingredients together, until the desired consistency is achieved.
Remove the pepper from the bowl and remove the skin, stem and seeds. Chop the pepper and add to the avocado mixture along with the cilantro and goat cheese. Cover and place in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

A channel is the fundamental (id)entity on the grid. A channel can represent many different things: a person, a blog, or a forum to name a few. Channels can make connections with other channels to share information with highly detailed permissions. Channels are addressed using a familiar email@example.com format.
Nomadic identity means true ownership of online identity. With Hubzilla, you don't have an "account" on a server, you own an identity that you can take with you across the grid. You can clone a channel across multiple hubs for resilience against network failures or censorship, or you can completely move a channel from one hub to another, taking your data and connections with you.
Typical websites are isolated and have no idea who is accessing their content, and controlled access to data is limited to permissions settings between individual accounts on a site. If you want to share information in a controlled way off-site, you're out of luck. Hubzilla enforces fine-grained permissions for information shared across the grid, and websites on hubs are identity-aware. Single sign-on allows seamless authentication across independent websites in a way never before possible.
Zot is a JSON-based web framework for implementing secure decentralised communications and services. It differs from many other communication protocols by building communications on top of a decentralised identity and authentication framework. The authentication component is similar to OpenID conceptually but is insulated from DNS-based identities. Where possible remote authentication is silent and invisible. This provides a mechanism for internet scale distributed access control which is unobtrusive.
Hubzilla is extensible. Build entire web apps as plugins and leverage the power of the grid to handle access control and data distribution.
Use the Comanche webpage description language and the Webpages tool to build modular, identity-aware, and shareable web page elements.
Social networking is in Hubzilla's DNA, baked into its core. Use a channel to represent yourself and make connections (i.e., "friends") to share with others. Support for federation with Diaspora, Friendica and others via plugins.
Connect your channel's file storage to your local filesystem using standard WebDAV. Share or publish your files with the ubiquitous fine-grained access control.
The web interface is highly customizable, with native support for theme development. Brand your hubs for your community or business.
Coordinate and share calendar events with anyone using the native calendar functionality. Import/export between popular calendar formats.
A growing list of API functions enable independent apps to utilize hubs, extending the range of interconnected services on the grid to the limits of your imagination.
Hubzilla is open source! You have the freedom to use and modify the software to suit your needs. When it comes to privacy and data security, everyone should be able to review and improve the code.
Hubzilla is free and open source software protecting your rights with an MIT license.

You've got a detailed sick/morbid style. Normally, I would tell people to add background and more things, but yours are fine the way they are for now. Keep making them.

Stalking is not a joke. It's not romantic. It's not ok.
IUP's Haven Project challenges the IUP campus to fight this dangerous crime by learning more about it. Think it's not your problem? Rates of stalking among college students are higher than the general public!
Visit the Haven Project peer educators at their stalking awareness tables at the HUB and in Folger Dining Hall for information and resources.
If you or someone you know is a victim of stalking, contact the Alice Paul House (24 hours) at 724-349-4444.
Resources are also available on campus at the Haven Project at the Counseling Center (G31 Suites on Maple-East) and University Police.
For more information, visit the Stalking Awareness Month website and the Office of Violence Against Women at the Department of Justice.

The story of one writer as she tries to get published and attempts to avoid procrastination
Monday 11 April 2011
L is for...Life Getting in The Way
First drafts can be tricky for me. At this point I'm still getting to know my characters and discovering what's happening as I go. I know some people find that outlines help, but I find the whole process too sterile. I have a rough idea when I start a novel where I'm going to go with it, but for the most part I play it by ear.
Before I finished Ravensborough and Storms in Teacups I found it a lot harder to get motivated to write. I had a pile of college work, a pile of housework and I was struggling to come to terms with illness. I enjoyed writing, but it was hard for me to prioritise it. I mean, who knew if I'd even finish my books after all? It seemed like a big waste of time.
I find it easier now that I know I can actually finish it. But if you're struggling with first drafts then there are some free applications that can help. First I used Write or Die. This ominously titled website lets you set a time limit and a word count goal. If you stop typing for a certain amount of time then it makes an annoying noise, which doesn't stop until you start typing again. I found this great, though I've recently graduated to Focus Booster, which puts a little bar at the top of your page. You set a timer, I set it for twenty five minutes, and it starts off green, then moves to orange, and finally red. It makes you much more aware that time is passing, and therefore focuses you on your writing. I like the fact that you can write in Word with this app, whereas with Write or Die you have to type in the box on the site, unless you pay for their desktop version. Both of these are handy if you have a busy life and can only commit to twenty minutes or so of writing a day. They help focus you so you get the most from your time.
For edits, I like EditMinion. It's still in beta, but is handy for identifying things like repetition of words, passive voice, that kind of thing.
What about all of you? Do you have any tricks to keep you motivated through the writing process?
Oh, and I'm going to take part in this query critique blog hop. Anyone thinking about submitting soon should think about taking part. On April 19 everyone involved posts their query and critiques at least five other queries. Like Query Shark but with less sarcasm :)
13 comments:
I'm with you in that I have an idea of where I want to start and how I want it to end and then I kind of just fill in the rest as I go. I've heard mapping out events can be useful, but I've never actually done it. I might try your EditMinion--it sounds like something I could really use. Happy writing!
ReplyDeleteWell, they're not mine. I discovered Write or Die on the Nanowrimo forums, and Editminion is from him too. And I discovered Focus Booster on Amanda Hocking's blog.
Glad someone else writes like me! I'm overawed by all those people who manage to outline. It's a feat of organisation that is probably beyond me.I use an outline. I need to be a little more focused. Usually, it works for me. That way, when I get bored with one scene or get stuck, I flip to another. I don't have to write in order. It does still take a little time getting to know the characters, but that's what revising is for, right? :)
ReplyDeleteHey, thanks for the links. I'm going to have to check those out. :)
So is this query bloghop set for day Q? And who's hosting it?
:) Rosie
East for Green EyesSince I needed to do so much research for my novel (it's historical fiction), I found an outline to be really helpful. My first draft was pretty close to my original outline. But the second, third, and final drafts were a series of drastic departures from my original outline. And it worked out really well that way. Since I had all the research done and knew that I had the historical-accuracy part right, I was then able to focus on my characters. And once they came alive there was no way I was keeping them in the confines of an outline.

You've heard me complain about unentertaining H-B Christmas specials with characters wearing skunk hats and on and on. But the Yuletide season is supposed to be about caring and giving. So allow me to give you a real Hanna-Barbera Christmas adventure.
Okay, this is kind of like re-gifting. I'd rather say that than "pilfering." This comes from the nice blog "Golden Gems" which was posting scans of Little Golden Books. A year ago, we reposted pages from one of the Yogi Christmas books uploaded there. This is from another, "Yogi Bear Helps Santa", copyright 1962. It was drawn by Lee Branscome, who provided background art for the original Jetsons and Jonny Quest shows. Read along or just enjoy the drawings.
If you're interested in old Little Golden Books, check out Barbie's site HERE. It's a shame family matters have forced her to stop blogging but it's nice of her to leave up her old posts.
The folks at Golden Books brought you Golden Records, and here's where we go from the sublime to the you-know-what.
This time, I'm re-gifting from myself. I posted this a year ago. Golden came out with a Yogi Bear Christmas record in 1961, with both sides written by Bill Hanna, Joe Barbera and Sylvia Parnes. Faithful readers know Daws Butler and Don Messick had an exclusive record contract with Colpix, so someone else had to be found to voice Yogi and Boo Boo, someone in New York where the Golden Records were pressed. The city had plenty of voice actors doing commercials, Allen Swift was probably the busiest. Golden had its own little stock company of actors and the man assigned to try to replicate the sound Daws' and Don's characters was Frank Milano. Unfortunately, doing so was not among Frank's many gifts. Listen to them at your own peril.
The last couple of Christmas Days, we've posted cartoon music from the Capitol Hi-Q library. I wish I could do the same this year. But I've not been able to find any more music from the cartoons. The late Earl Kress and I held out hope that more of Jack Shaindlin's music from the Langlois Filmusic library would surface somewhere but, unfortunately, that just hasn't happened. Collectors of stock music tend to go for English and European labels, not American, so copies of Langlois discs are extremely rare. We'll have to substitute another type of H-B Christmas bonus instead.

Terrific stuff. Did anyone else like the recent Yogi Bear movie, or was I the only one?
I once had a Marx Toys Yogi Bear on a friction-drive yellow scooter. I've got a picture of the box in the Hanna-Barbera Treasury book, but can anyone supply me with a pic of the actual toy? (Or even better, sell me one?)
Great blog, as I said before.

Focal length range (f-f)
Measure of how strongly the system converges or diverges light. For an optical system in air, it is the distance over which initially collimated rays are brought to a focus. A system with a shorter focal length has greater optical power than one with a long focal length; that is, it bends the rays more strongly, bringing them to a focus in a shorter distance.For an optical system in air, the effective focal length (f and f′) gives the distance from the front and rear principal planes (H and H′) to the corresponding focal points (F and F′).
6 - 18 mm
Light exposure
Shutter Lag
