-- -- This may.
Fellow Democrats.
We are here.
To nominate a president.
I've got one in my.
I want to nominate a man whose own life.
Has known.
Its fair share of adversity.
And uncertainty.
I want to nominate a man who ran for president to change the course.
Of an already weak economy.
And then just six weeks before his election.
So I suffered the biggest collapse it's a Great Depression.
A man -- stopped the slide and the depression.
And put us on the long road to recovery.
Knowing all the while.
That -- how no matter how many jobs.
That he saved or created there'd still be millions more waiting.
Word about -- their own kids.
Trying to keep their hopes alive.
-- Long -- dominate a man.
Who's -- on the outside it.
But soon.
A man who police.
With no doubt.
Then we can build a new American dream economy driven by innovation creativity by education and -- -- cooperation.
And by the way after last night.
-- a man who had a good sense to marry Michelle Obama.
Barack Obama to be the next president of the United States.
-- On the -- handed me the standard bearer.
Other Democratic Party -- And -- A few days ago.
We heard a lot of talk.
-- about how the president the Democrats don't really believe in free enterprise and individual initiative.
How we want everybody need dependent on the government.
How bad we are the economy.
This Republican narrative bits of alternative universe.
Said yeah.
There are a lot of us in this room who amounts -- anything.
We're all completely self nine.
One of the greatest -- the Democratic Party ever have Bob Strauss.
Used to say.
Met every politician.
Well it's every voter to believe me.
He was born and log cabin he built himself.
It's Straus then admitted.
In itself.
We Democrats.
We think the country works better with a strong middle class with real opportunities for poor folks who work your way into it.
Where the relentless focus on the future.
-- business and government actually working together to promote growth and broadly shared prosperity.
You -- We believe me that we're all in this together there's a far better philosophy.
Then you're.
The -- Who's doing.
Since 1961.
For 52 years now the Republicans have held -- White House 28 years.
The Democrats 24.
And those 52 -- -- see our private economy has produced 66.
Private sector jobs.
So what's the jobs -- over.
24 million Democrats.
Okay am.
It turns out that advancing equal opportunity.
And economic empowerment.
Is both morally right and good economics.
Because poverty discrimination and ignorance and restrict.
-- -- -- chance of when you don't invest in new ideas.
Big doesn't just cut off the people who are affected and it hurts us all.
That investments and education and infrastructure and scientific and technological over restarts could increase -- they -- good jobs and they create new wealth.
For all the rest of us.
There's something I've noticed lately you probably have to do.
And it's this maybe discuss our growth at a different time but -- often disagree with Republicans.
I actually never learned to hate them the way the far right.
That now controls their party seems to hate our president.
That would be impossible for me because.
President Eisenhower sent federal troops in my home state to integrate Little Rock Central High School.
Built the interstate highway system.
The governor how -- -- President Reagan and his white house on.
The first round of welfare reform and with president George H.
Bush on national education goes.
Actually very grateful.
-- if you saw from the found what I did -- diet I have to be grateful and you should lead to.
The president George W.
Bush supported supported site -- lots of millions of people it's more country.
I have been honored to work where it.
Both presidents bush on natural disasters in the aftermath of the South Asian tsunami hurricane Katrina and the horrible earthquake in Haiti.
Through my foundation both an American around the world I'm Morgan all time -- Democrats Republicans and independents sometimes.
I can tell you for the live to a market where -- because we focus on.
-- problems and seizing opportunities and not by.
And here's what I want to people at home to think about.
When -- tell the people are frustrated angry and hurting and uncertain.
The politics of constant conflict.
May be good.
But what is good politics does not necessarily work in the real world what works in the real world.
His cooperation.
Foundations and university -- That's the mayors who are here.
Los Angeles is getting green and Chicago's getting an infrastructure bank because Republicans and Democrats are working together.
They did it.
They didn't check their brains at the door that is -- disagree and plug their preference was to get something done.
Now why is this true -- -- cooperation were better -- constant conflict.
Because nobody -- -- all the time.
And -- broken clock is right twice a day.
Ever want to -- -- every one of them.
We're compelled to spend our fleeting -- between those two extremes.
Knowing we're never go be right all the time and hope you're right more than twice and then.
-- -- -- -- faction that now dominates the Republican Party doesn't see it that way.
They think government is always the enemy they're always right in compromise is weakness.
Just in the last couple of elections.
They defeated -- distinguished Republican senators.
Because they dared to cooperate where Democrats on the -- -- -- issues important to the future of the country even national security.
They believe.
A Republican congressman and almost a 100% voting record on every bit conservative score because he said.
He realized he did not have to hate the president to disagree with him boy that was a non starter and they threw him out.
One of the main reasons we ought to reelect President Obama.
Is that he is still.
Committee had.
To constructive cooperation.
He appoint -- Republican secretaries of defense the army and transportation.
He appointed a vice president who ran against him in 2008.
And he trusted.
Vice president to oversee the successful end of the war in Iraq and the implementation of the recovery.
Upon and several members.
-- his cabinet.
Even though they supported.
Hillary in the primaries.
-- -- -- -- -- A it.
I am very proud of her and I am proud of the job she -- the national security team have done for America.
-- I -- -- together to make it safer and stronger to build a world -- more partners and fewer enemies.
I'm grateful for the relationship of respect and partnership she and the president have enjoyed in this signaled that sends to the rest of the world that democracy does not have a -- to have to be a blood sport.
It can be an honorable enterprise.
-- -- That's not the national security team I am very grateful.
To the men and women who serve our country in uniform through these -- Especially grateful.
To Michelle Obama and the Joseph Biden.
For supporting those military families -- their loved ones -- overseas.
When they come home.
Bearing the way.
Are needing help define education or jobs our housing.
President Obama's whole record on national security.
Is attributed to his strength to his judgment and to his preference for inclusion and partnership over partisanship.
Winning -- We all know they also tried to work with congressional Republicans.
On health care debt reduction.
And new jobs.
And then and work out so what.
But it could've been because.
As the senate Republican leaders say ahead in a remarkable moment of candor.
Two full years before the election.
They're number one priority was not to put America back to work there was to put the president.
-- -- -- Senator.
I hate to break it to you.
But we're gonna keep President Obama.
I -- Am.
A a do you.
And -- In Tampa don't want their convention and I didn't.
In Tampa.
The Republican argument against the president reelection.
Was actually pretty simple pretty snappy.
It went something like this.
We left him a total mess.
He had -- claimed another fast enough so far him and put us back again.
They look good -- sounded good.
They convince me that.
They all of their families their children and would rightfully been born in America and all -- really I'm not -- Man this is important.
They convinced me there were honorable people who believe what they said in -- rookie Trevor commitment they've made.
We just got to make sure the American people know what those commitments are.
But yeah.
Can look like an acceptable or reasonable moderate alternative to President Obama -- They just didn't -- very much about the ideas they've offered over the last two years.
They couldn't.
Because I want to go back to the -- policies that got us in trouble in the first place.
They want to cut taxes for high income Americans even more than President Bush did.
They want to get rid of those pesky financial regulations designed to prevent another crash and prohibit future violence.
But I want to actually increased defense spending over a decade -- two trillion dollars more than the Pentagon has requested.
Without saying what they'll spend -- all.
And -- -- -- make enormous cuts in the rest of the budget especially programs.
That help the middle class and poor children.
As another brother who once they hadn't.
There they go again.
The argument for president Obama's reelection.
A lot better.
Here it is.
He inherited a deeply damaged economy.
He put a floor under the crash.
He began the long hard road to recovery and laid the foundation.
For a modern more well balanced economy that will produce millions of good new jobs and vibrant new businesses and lots of new -- for innovators.
Are we where.
We want to me today no.
Is the president satisfied.
Of course.
But are we better off than we were when he took office it.
-- -- Okay.
It's in free fall off.
It'd just rock -- -- percent of GDP.
We were losing 750000.
Jobs a -- are we -- about it that today.
-- -- Here's the challenge.
He faces.
In the challenge all of you supporting things.
-- again today I know would abandon.
A lot of Americans.
Are still angry and frustrated about this economy.
If you look at the numbers you know employment is growing banks are beginning to lend again.
In a lot of places housing prices are even begin to pick up but too many people do not feel it yet.
I had the same thing happened.
In 1994 and or -- -- we can say that the policies were working.
That the economy was growing.
But most people didn't feel it yet.
-- believe.
The economy was roaring everybody felt it.
And we were halfway through the longest peacetime expansion in the history of the United States.
-- difference this time.
It's purely in the circumstances.
President Obama started with a much weaker economy than I did.
Listen to me now.
Know president.
No president.
Not me it's not any of my predecessors.
No one could have fully repaired all the damage that he found it just.
He has laid the foundations for a new modern successful economy.
A shared prosperity.
And -- if you will -- the president's contract.
You will feel it you will see it.
-- Whether the American people believe what I just -- may -- the whole election.
I just want you know that I believe that with all my hard time believing.
While I believe.
How did you tell you one.
I believe it because president Obama's approach he embodies the values the -- and the direction America has to take.
To build the 21 century version of the American dream nation of shared opportunity shared responsibilities.
Shared prosperity a shared sense of community.
So let's get back to the story.
In 2010.
As the president's recovery program kicked in the job losses to stop and things began to turnaround.
The Recovery -- saved or created millions of jobs and cut taxes.
We say is again cut taxes for 95%.
By the American people.
One and -- moments.
Our economy has produced about four and a half million private sector jobs.
We could have done better but last year the Republicans -- the president's job plan.
-- in the economy more than a million new jobs.
Here's another job store.
President Obama.
Plus four and a half million.
Congressional Republicans.
An area.
More than 500000.
Manufacturing jobs have been created under President Obama that's the first time manufacturing jobs.
Have increased since the 99 it's.
I'll tell you something else.
The auto industry restructuring work.
-- -- This -- more than a million jobs and not just a GM Chrysler and their dealerships.
But in auto parts manufacturing all over the country.
That's why even the auto makers who -- part of the deal supported.
They need to say those parts suppliers to.
Well I just said.
We're all in this together.
So what's happened.
There are now 250000.
More people work in the auto industry then on the day the company's -- structure.
Now we all know.
That governor Romney opposed the plan to save GM and Chrysler.
Here's another job school.
Are you listen in Michigan and Ohio and across.
You do -- Obama 250000.
The agreement the administration might with the management labor and environmental groups to double car mileage that was a good deal to.
It will cut your gas prices in half.
Your gas bill no matter what -- preferably -- is if you double mileage of your car your building have put it would have been.
It will might just more energy independent it will cut greenhouse gas emissions.
And according to several analyses over the next forty years it'll bring -- -- half a million.
Good new jobs in the the American economy.
The president's energy strategy which he calls all of the above -- -- entered.
The Benton oil and gas production.
Combined with a greater energy efficiency.
Has driven oil imports 220 here -- a natural gas production to an all time -- And renewable energy production has doubled.
-- We made a lot more new jobs.
But there are already.
More than three million jobs open and fun filled in America.
Mostly because all the people who apply for them don't yet have the required skills to do them.
So even as we get Americans more jobs we have to prepare more Americans for the new jobs are actually going to be created.
-- old economy is not coming back.
We've got to build a new one and educate people.
To do those jobs.
The president and his education secretary -- support community colleges and employers.
In working together.
To train people for jobs that are actually open in their communities.
And even more important after a decade in which exploding college costs have increased to drop out right so much.
That the percentage of our young people.
With four year college degrees has gone down so much that we have dropped to sixteenth in the world.
In the percentage of young people a college degrees.
The president's student loan reform.
Is more important than ever here's what it does your work.
You can't tell every voter where you live -- -- It lowers the cost the federal student loans and even more importantly it gives students the right to repay those loans as a clear text.
Low percentage of their income for -- Friday.
No one will.
Perhaps you dropped out of college again.
Where do they can't -- -- their day out.
That if someone wants to take a job with a modest income the teacher police officer.
If they want to be a small -- doctorate and a little rural area.
They won't have to turn those jobs down because they don't pay enough.
To repay the debt they're debt obligation will be determined by their salary this will change the future for -- Am.
We're better off.
Because President Obama made the decisions he did.
Now I'm.
Not raise me to health care.
Now the Republicans call it derisively obamacare.
They say it's a government takeover of the disaster and then -- -- distillate dome there repeal it.
Well are -- right.
Let's take a look at what's actually happened so for.
Individuals and businesses have already gotten more than a billion.
Dollars in refunds from insurance companies because of manure requires 8885 so your premium.
-- go to your health care not profits are promotion.
The in.
But a bunch of insurance companies have applied to lower their relates to comply with the requirement.
Check get more than three million young people between nineteen and 25 or insured for the first time because their parents home.
Policies and.
Are receiving preventive care.
Follow -- from breast cancer screenings to adjust -- heart problems and scores of other things -- younger people are getting them to.
Foreign policy in the insurance companies.
Not the government the insurance companies we'll have millions of new customers many of the middle class people with preexisting conditions.
Who never could get an insurance reform.
Was -- good.
For the last two years.
After going up at three times the right of inflation for a decade.
For the last two years health care cost.
Have been under 4% in both years for the first time in fifteen.
I am.
And again.
We better off -- college President Obama fought for Health Care Reform.
-- there were two other attacks on the president Tampa but they deserve an answer.
First both governor Romney and congressman -- and attacked the president for allegedly robbing Medicare.
Billion dollars.
That's the same -- that leveled against congress in 2010.
And they got a lot of unsold.
But it's not true.
Here's what really happened you -- the judges are really time.
There were no cuts to benefits.
At all -- What the president did.
Was to save money.
But taking your recommendations of a commission.
Of professions.
To cut unwarranted subsidies to providers and insurance companies that were not making people healthier.
And were not necessary to get the providers to provide the service.
And instead of readying Medicare.
He -- savings to close the doughnut hole in the Medicare drug program.
Listen carefully this is a really important and -- Okay here -- the life of the Medicare trust fund so it is solvent until 20/20.
So President Obama and the Democrats didn't weaken Medicare -- -- to strengthen.
Now when congressman Ryan.
Look -- that TV camera.
And attacked President Obama is Medicare savings as quote.
The biggest -- lists power play.
I don't know whether it will ever -- -- well.
That's 716.
Billion dollars.
Did you exactly do they dollar -- this.
No amount of Medicare savings and then he had in his own budget.
I'd get one -- did take some brands to -- -- -- for doing what you do.
Candidates getting serious I want you to listen.
Now at least on this issue and this one issue.
Governor Romney has been consistent.
He attacks.
President Obama to.
But he actually wants to repeal -- savings.
And give the money back to the insurance company.
He wants to go back to the old system from.
Which means we'll reopen the doughnut hole for seniors to pay more for drugs.
And will reduce the lives of the Medicare trust fund by eight full years.
So -- these elected.
And if he does what he promised to do.
Medicare will now -- broke in 2016.
Think about death and that means after all we won't have to wait until their voucher program kicks in and 223.
To see the end of Medicare as we know it.
Sooner than we thought.
-- this is serious.
Because he gets worse.
And you'll be laughing when -- finish tell you this.
They also want to block grant Medicaid.
And cut it last third over the come continues.
Of course that's -- really -- a lot of poor kids.
But that's not all.
Lot of folks don't know it -- nearly two thirds of Medicaid.
You spent on nursing home care for Medicare seniors.
You're eligible for Medicaid.
It's going to end Medicare as we know it.
And a lot of that money is also spent to help people.
With disabilities.
A lot of middle class families.
Whose kids have Down's syndrome or autism.
Or other severe conditions.
And honestly.
It's think about it.
If that happens.
I don't know -- those -- you gonna do.
So I know what I'm gonna do.
And we'll do everything I can't just say that it doesn't happen we can't.
Glad this happened.
Big charged.
The Republicans night.
It's a real -- That's actually have charged.
And run -- saying.
That President Obama wants to weaken the work requirements of the welfare reform bill I -- -- move millions of people from welfare to work.
The way you need to know.
Here's what happened.
Nobody ever tells you what.
Really happened here's what happened.
When some Republican governors.
I ask -- -- could have waivers to try new ways to put people on welfare back to work.
The Obama administration lesson.
Cause we all know it's -- -- -- people would go to work histories to get jobs today so movement folks -- welfare to work as a real challenge.
And the administration agreed.
To give waivers to those governors and others.
Only if they have a credible plan.
To increase employment about 20% and they could keep the waivers only if they did increase employment now did there I'm like myself clear.
The requirement was for more -- not let us.
This is personal to me.
When you have millions of people off welfare.
It was one of the reasons and that eight years I was present we have a hundred times as many people move out of poverty into the middle class -- happened.
Under the previous twelve years.
A hundred times as many.
It's a big deal.
But I am telling you that claim that President Obama who weekend welfare reforms work requirement is just not true.
They keep all the claiming it.
You're alone there campaign pollsters say it.
We are not going to let our camp -- be dictated.
But the fact checkers.
-- -- -- -- He has true.
-- -- it better myself.
You played every American and within the sound of my boys remembers it every time they see one of those ads.
And it turns into -- -- to reelect Barack Obama and keep the fundamental principles of personal empowerment.
And moving everybody can get a job in the work as soon as we can -- Today interest rates are low -- the right of inflation people are practically -- -- -- hormone.
Pull their money -- But it will become a big problem with the economy -- -- interest rates.
Start to rise.
We got -- deal -- this big long term debt problem more it will deal with -- us.
-- gobble up the bigger bigger percentage of the federal budget we'd rather spend on education and healthcare and science and technology.
We got to deal with it.
Now what is -- president done.
He has all -- out a reasonable plan of four trillion dollars in debt reduction over a decade.
With two and a half trillion coming from.
Hopes for -- -- and a trillion dollars of spending cuts he -- -- dollar in new revenues to and have to walk.
Any -- tight controls on future spending that's accountable balanced approach.
Proposed by the Simpson Bowles commission a bipartisan commission.
Not think his plan is way better than governor Romney's plan.
First the Romney plan fails the first test of fiscal responsibility.
The numbers just don't -- up.
-- Consider this.
What would you do if you had this problem.
So much -- though we got a big -- probably got to produce a bit so what's the first thing he says you don't do well to reduce the -- We're going to have another five trillion dollars in tax -- Heavily weighted upper income people.
So like today -- -- bigger before we start to get out of it.
Now when you say what didn't didn't.
About -- trillion dollar to just animal.
Myself will -- get out.
By eliminating.
Loopholes in the tax -- So let me ask well.
Bush -- holds and how much.
You know other side.
-- about -- after the election.
I'm not like you know that's their position.
-- about that -- election.
There -- people ask me all the time.
How we got four surplus budgets in a -- What new ideas that we bring to Washington I'll always give -- one word answers.
Don't plan.
In a debt reduction plan.
The arithmetic tells us.
No matter what they say.
One of three things is about to have.
-- Let's simulate try to do what they say they'll do -- gonna -- covered by deductions.
Come no seduction.
Wind they'll have to eliminate so many deductions like the ones for home mortgages and charitable giving.
That middle class families will see their tax bills go up an average of 2000 dollars.
While anybody a nice three million dollars or more we'll see their tax bill go down 250000.
Tune right.
They'll have to cut so much spending.
But they'll obliterate the budget for the national parks for ensuring clean air clean water site food site -- traveled.
They'll cut way back on pell grants college loans early childhood education.
Child nutrition programs all the programs that help to empower middle class families and help poor kids.
Oh they'll cut back on investments in roads and bridges in science and technology and -- medical resorts.
That's what they'll do.
-- -- -- middle class and the -- puts future on hold.
To give tax cuts for upper income people who've been getting it all wrong.
Or three.
Thought of all the rhetoric -- -- do what they've been good for more than thirty years.
They'll go to cuts taxes way more than a cut spending.
Especially that big defense increase.
And they'll just explode the dad.
And -- the economy.
And they'll destroy the federal government's ability to help -- by letting interest gobble up all your tax.
Don't you ever forget.
When you hear them talking about this.
That Republican and economic policies.
Quadruple the national debt.
Before I took office in the twelve years before I took off.
-- -- Eight years that dry -- What -- it never the arithmetic.
-- woods how.
And convenient thing for them and our device that I was.
There's a country boy from Arkansas and I came from place where people still talk to -- to restore.
It's a regimented.
We simply cannot folklore.
To give the reins of government to someone who will double down on trickle down.
Do you.
-- the future of our children our families and our nation's.
It's a heck -- a lot better.
It -- the arithmetic -- and far more important.
It passes the values test.
-- All of us -- this -- home.
And everybody watching at home.
When we vote this election will be deciding what kind of country we want to live in.
-- if you want.
A winner take all your own your own society.
You should support the Republican ticket.
But if you want a country of shared opportunities and shared responsibility.
We're all in this together society.
You should vote for Barack Obama and -- guy.
Every American -- both.
And you think it is well.
To change voting procedures.
Can reduce the turn out of younger par minority and disabled voters.
If you think the president was right.
To open the doors of American opportunity to all those young immigrants brought here when they were young so they can so.
Go to college.
-- properties declining where the American dream is really alive and well again.
And -- the United States maintains its leadership.
As a force for peace.
And justice and prosperity.
In this highly competitive world.
You have to vote.
For Barack Obama.
I love our country so much.
And I know we're coming back.
For more than 200.
Years through every crisis we've always come back.
People had predicted our demise ever since George Washington was criticized.
For being a mediocre sure there with a bad set of -- faulty.
And so far every single person that's been against America has lost money.
Because we always come back.
-- -- We decide to champion the cause for which our founders.
Pledged their lives their fortunes their sacred honor.
The -- forming a more.
Perfect union and.
Yeah okay.
You know.

Modern and Contemporary Art Coffeepot 1916 Juan Gris (José Victoriano González Pérez), Spanish, 1887 - 1927 Oil on panel Currently not on view 1952-61-35 A. E. Gallatin Collection, 1952 |
ProvenanceWith Léonce Rosenberg, Galerie de l'Effort Moderne, Paris (stock no. 5327) [1]; Pierre Faure, Paris [2]; with Galerie Simon, Paris, as of 1937, and possibly by 1933 (stock no. 0456); sold to A. E. Gallatin, New York, June 1937 [3]; bequest to PMA, 1952. 1. Stock number L.R. 5327 on back of painting. 2. Label on back of painting. According to Douglas Cooper, Faure formed his large collection of 26 paintings by Gris between 1915 and 1927, buying from Léonce Rosenberg. Some 21 oil paintings owned by Faure appeared in the 1933 Zürich Gris exhibition (all pre-1920). Cooper states that the entire collection was acquired by the Galerie Simon in 1933 (Cooper, The Essential Cubism, 1983, pp. 25, 31). 3. Letter from Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler to Gallatin dated June 10, 1937, noting the purchase of this painting and "Dish of Fruit" (1952-61-36) also by Gris. See also Gallatin's letter of August 1 [1937] to George L.K. Morris: "…Kahnweiler recently bought a fine collection of about 18 Gris. Two of them (topping) you will see in New York" (cited by Gail Stavitsky, The Development, Institutionalization, and Impact of the A. E. Gallatin Collection of Modern Art [Ph.D. dissertation, New York University], 1990, v. 7, p. 105). This group of 18 works probably represented a portion of Faure's private collection, which comprised about 26 paintings by Gris as well as works by other Cubists. According to Cooper's catalogue raisonné, 16 paintings by Gris are known to have gone directly from Faure to Kahnweiler's Galerie Simon. |

and then I thought that it'd go poorly with people telling me to stop being such an angsty asshole.
But we're all here now, so you might as well tell me if I should lie on a job application or not, because I'm really just an unskilled introvert and I know I won't be hired if I fill out the application truthfully. I really don't expect myself to play nice with others when every time I tried I was teamed up with douche cuntbags in school.

A couple writer's notes:
I've never written a fanscript, aside from the "Siblings of Questionable Morals" contributions. I'm going to try to write/post a scene (or mini-scene) each night, kinda like I'm doing a NaNoWriMo. Hopefully, at that rate, it'll be done in a week or two. Remember, it's my first attempt, so keep your 1/5 votes to a minimum.
(The plot is all worked out beforehand. With a Curb/Seinfeld-style plot, it takes a lot of planning to get all the plot points to come together properly. I have to warn you (because it's Curb) that almost the whole script is going to be arguments between different people.)
INT, Inside Krusty's luxury clown car.
SIDESHOW MEL is in the driver's seat, sporting a dapper chauffeur's hat. KRUSTY THE CLOWN, looking bored, is sitting in the passenger seat beside him. He is gingerly holding a tattered white envelope in his hand.
You know, Krusty, on-screen chemistry is important and all, and I'm glad we're doing stuff together, but I didn't plan on driving you around town all day.
It's not "all day." We're just going to the Cardmark Store, to get my father a birthday card.
What did you get him?
KRUSTY (opening the envelope)
A night on the town! Two tickets to see "Rent" and $200 for dinner.
Your father's a rabbi, and you got him "Rent" tickets? What about "Fiddler on the Roof"?
KRUSTY (suddenly flying into a rage)
"Fiddler on the Roof"? Because a Jewish person going to a theatre must be seeing "Fiddler on the Roof." I'm so sick of the show. I live "Fiddler on the Roof," Mel. I live it.
KRUSTY (sarcastically)
You want to go to the latke store? Maybe I should buy a new yamulke today?
Do you talk to your regular chauffeur this way too?
Only on Sundays.
Sideshow Mel sighs and rolls his eyes. Krusty's sudden outburst has made the vehicle rather stuffy, so Sideshow Mel presses a button and rolls down the windows. A burst of wind gushes through the car, sweeping the white envelope out of Krusty's hand. It lands on the sidewalk near The First Church of Springfield.
Cut to HOMER SIMPSON, dressed in his fancy blue suit. He is walking from his car toward the front door of the church.
HOMER (talking to himself)
Geez, when are they going to get valet service here?
Homer comes across a white envelope lying on the ground appealingly. He picks it up and discovers the $200 and theater tickets inside.
And on the eighth day, God invented two hundred dollars. And it was good.
Homer, gleeful from his good luck, happily strolls into the church. Moments later, Krusty's clown car parks nearby. Krusty and Sideshow Mel emerge from the car to search for the missing envelope.
You know, my chauffeur also wouldn't lose my stuff either.
You hired me for being shot out of a cannon, not driving you around.
It's my fault, anyway. I should've just brought Mr. Teeny instead.
Well, Mr. Teeny isn't here, and neither is the envelope. Maybe we should inquire inside the church? Perhaps a Good Samiritan found it.
KRUSTY (looking at the church)
Mmmmmm, I don't know...
Why not?
I'm Jewish. I can't walk into a church on a Sunday. Everyone would look at me shocked, that a Jew would dare show his face at church on a Sunday.
So your being Jewish suddenly matters again?
Going in there would be weird.
You should give them a chance. They're even having a potluck meal today.
Sideshow Mel points to the church sign, which reads, "POTLUCK TODAY - PLEASE DON'T BRING MACARONI SALAD".
Meh. Let's just get another pair of tickets.
Krusty and Sideshow Mel exit.

One of the worst movies ever. Avoid at all costs.
I could tell from the previews it looked dumb.
Fairly decent actually. A very obvious "propaganda" piece but still enjoyable.
did you have a date?
That's such an american thing to say. I understand where you're coming from, but the movie was too ridiculous to be taken as social commentary.
Metacritic is for losers
Fairly decent Maybe the ukraine bootleg version is different
No, went with a friend.
Did you play the popcorn game?
Yep. Im starting to thing the director just got lucky with District 9 which was excellent.
Anyone mention how over the top and comical Jodie Foster was? Worst acting of the century

About Shakespeare in the Parks
The Tempest, Poker Jim Butte, Birney, MT July 2009The mission of Montana Shakespeare in the Parks is to make quality, live theatrical productions of Shakespeare and other classics accessible to communities in Montana and surrounding states with an emphasis on underserved, rural areas who would not otherwise have this opportunity. All performances are offered free, making Shakespeare in the Parks available to everyone. The company's oldest educational program, Shakespeare in the Schools, complements the education of young people by providing a complete production of one of Shakespeare's plays along with workshops that enhance their understanding and appreciation of Shakespeare's works. In 2008, the Company introduced MONTANA SHAKES!, a program designed specifically for elementary schools which provides an entertaining and interactive introduction to Shakespeare at a time when students are most receptive to learning. All three are professionally produced theatrical outreach programs of Montana State University's College of Arts and Architecture. HistoryTaming of the Shrew, Poker Jim Butte, Birney, MTJuly 1974Montana Shakespeare in the Parks (MSIP) opened its first season in the summer of 1973. The amateur acting company was comprised of a mixture of students and community members and was founded by Dr. Bruce Jacobsen. The company performed Shakespearean scenes only and the season consisted of thirteen performances in seven cities in Montana. The goal was to bring Shakespeare directly to the people of Montana who would not otherwise have the opportunity with an emphasis on underserved rural communities. The following summer, two full productions (The Taming of the Shrew and The Merchant of Venice) were mounted by a paid professional company and staff. The season doubled to include 26 performances in 18 cities and the Montana Shakespeare in the Parks Company as we have come to know it was born. Since that time, MSIP has performed over 2,250 times to nearly three quarter of a million people becoming a mainstay of Montana culture. The company's contribution to the cultural fabric of Montana and its unique ability to serve the most remote rural areas of the region has been chronicled by Montana PBS, NBC Nightly News, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times and many others. In 1991, the company was named the recipient of the Montana Governor's Award for the Arts, the highest honor that can be bestowed on an arts organization in our state. In 1993, MSIP launched its first educational outreach program in response to a growing interest from schools throughout the state. Shakespeare in the Schools (SIS) has grown from an initial pilot project featuring a presentation of Shakespearean scenes by a team of only two actors literally performing in front of "two sticks and a banner&rduo; to a full 75-minute production of a Shakespearean play performed by eight professional actors, complete with full costumes and set. SIS offers a 10-week tour to middle schools and high schools in communities throughout Montana and northern Wyoming. The company's educational mission is to expose students to Shakespeare as he intended; in a live theatrical performance. Post-show workshops complete the experience by helping students to better understand his language and themes and how they are relevant and vital to today's students. SIS is the only professional theatre company that brings an educational Shakespeare program directly into Montana's schools and serves over 10,000 students, teachers and community members each year with an emphasis on small, under-served rural communities. In the spring of 2008, MSIP initiated a 3-week pilot project specifically designed for elementary schools entitled MONTANA SHAKES! This program introduced Shakespeare's language to K-5th grade students in an interactive, non-threatening, entertaining format with a 30-minute play featuring scenes from A Midsummer Night's Dream performed by a company of three professional actors. Following the performance, students took part in a "talk back" session with the acting company before breaking into age appropriate hands-on workshops in the areas of design; using a costume trunk and puppetry, verse; in a workshop entitled "Green Eggs and Hamlet" and a stage combat/movement workshop that complemented the performance the students had just experienced with clowning techniques. Based on the extraordinary success of the first season, in the spring of 2010 the company remounted it as an 8-week tour serving 40 elementary schools in Montana and northern Wyoming. The response again was enthusiastic and the tour is now an annual event. From its humble beginnings in 1973, Shakespeare in the Parks has grown from a limited summer tour by a very small company of dedicated artists with an annual budget of less than $15,000 to a year round touring company managed by five permanent staff members and a small army of seasonal employees whose annual budget is now nearly $700,000. The company serves the entire state of Montana as well as communities in the surrounding states of North Dakota, Wyoming, Idaho and Washington and has become one of Montana State University's best known and most effective outreach programs. A message from the artistic director...Artistic Director, Joel JahnkeYears ago, as a new artistic director, I was urged by the company to visit some of the smaller communities on tour because, they said, "these places are the heart and soul of what Montana Shakespeare in the Parks is all about." One early visit was to Birney, Montana, a remote community in Eastern Montana, population 17, sandwiched between the Custer National Forest and the Cheyenne Indian Reservation. After a six hour drive from Bozeman across increasingly dusty roads, I crested the hill and laid eyes on this remarkable place. There were two small kids sitting next to the mailbox, clearly waiting for something with delicious anticipation. When asked, they told me they "were waiting for the Shakespeare". I knew then that I was a part of something greater than myself and very special indeed.I return to Birney whenever I can to see our performances there on the top of Poker Jim Butte and am continually amazed that quality Shakespeare performances can be taken directly to the people in such a remote and beautiful setting. And Birney is just one example of what happens every summer in sixty or so communities under the Big Sky. We are dedicated to bringing high quality work by talented artists, who see something greater than themselves, to the greatest audiences in the world who otherwise would not have this amazing opportunity. If you've seen Montana Shakespeare in the Parks, you know what I mean. If you haven't, I invite you to do so. You'll be glad you did. I'll look forward to seeing you, somewhere down the road, "waiting for the Shakespeare". Joel Jahnke Artistic Director Montana Shakespeare in the Parks Staff | AlumniFeatured Alum:Original Music Andrew HansenAndrew Hansen has been writing music since he was 7. His music was first heard in the MSU Underground Theater production of "Minute Waltz" in 1990 and in MSU student... More Alums MSU OutreachMSU mascot, Spirit the Bobcat, MSU campusAs the State's land-grant institution, a major component of Montana State University's mission is to serve communities by integrating learning, discovery and engagement and there are few programs that exemplify MSU's outreach effort better than Montana Shakespeare in the Parks. With three separate tours that encompass the entire state from border to border and beyond, Shakespeare in the Parks serves literally the entire state of Montana with programs for citizens from ages five to ninety-five. Shakespeare in the Parks is proud of its long history of service to the region and equally proud to represent Montana State University with these quality professional theatrical outreach efforts. Go Bobcats! |

WALTHAM – Celtics coach Doc Rivers took a brief look at the walls of the team's practice facility before Friday's workout when asked what the significance might be of extending the franchise's Atlantic Division title streak to six straight years.
"Where's those division banners?" he asked the assembled media. "I don't see them."
When Paul Pierce was asked about winning the division, he responded: "We don't even get a T-shirt for that."
The message was clear: Catching the New York Knicks for the Atlantic crown, and passing the Brooklyn Nets along the way, is only as significant as how it puts the Celtics in position to succeed in the postseason.
The Celtics enter Friday night's NBA action 3½ games out of the Atlantic top spot after the stumbling Knicks lost in Portland Thursday night. Boston is in a three-way tie for the fifth spot in the East with the Chicago Bulls and Indiana Pacers.
"We would like to win the division," Rivers said. "But I would rather win a world championship, if I had my choice. That's the key. You want to be healthy, and be right, and give yourself the best chance to win in the playoffs."
That means having his aging stars rested and relatively pain-free when the playoffs begin the third week of April, and it means starting the first game of the first round of those playoffs on the parquet, if possible.
"That would be great," Rivers said of the homecourt advantage that comes with the fourth seed in the East. "If we get it, we get it. That would be great to get, but it will not be easy."
Rivers said avoiding the Miami Heat in the second round will not necessarily be a reason to avoid a fourth or fifth seed, and noted that in the unexpected 2010 run to the NBA Finals the Celtics faced the top-seeded Cleveland Cavaliers in the conference semifinals before beating the second-seeded Orlando Magic to get to the NBA Finals.
"I thought the earlier we faced Cleveland the better that year because we would not be beat up," the coach said. "I wanted to face them when we were at our peak. Last year, I think that would have been the opposite. If we had to face Miami in the second round, we were not ready for them yet. But the third round, we were."
The Celtics held a 3-2 series lead on the eventual champions, with Game 6 in Boston, before losing the series 4-3.
What round the Celtics would be best suited to face this year's Heat – who return to Boston Monday for the first time since the Celtics beat them in double-overtime of Ray Allen's celebrated comeback last month – remains to be determined. But Rivers said one thing is certain – the Celtics have no chance to beat the Heat if they are not as sound physically as can be for a team that has three key players over the age of 35, and has already lost three rotation players to season-ending injuries.
"Health," he said of the late-season objective. "It's not even close. Because if you're not healthy, you're going to lose homecourt, so it won't matter."

One million lives uprooted. One million desperate souls trying to start anew with nothing, far away from home.
The number of Syrians who have fled their country since the civil war began almost two years ago reached 1 million Wednesday, the U.N. refugee agency said.
An average of almost 1,400 refugees spill across the border daily. The 1 million figure represents about 5% of Syria's total population.
That's akin to the entire population of Prague, Czech Republic, walking away.
"With a million people in flight, millions more displaced internally, and thousands of people continuing to cross the border every day, Syria is spiraling towards full-scale disaster," U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees Antonio Guterres said.
The pace of the exodus has spiked dramatically in recent months.
More than 400,000 have fled since the beginning of this year to countries such as Lebanon, Jordan, Turkey, Iraq and Egypt. About half the refugees are children.
The news coincides almost exactly with the second anniversary of the Syrian civil war.
And a day doesn't go by without a death toll. More than 60 people have been killed in the fighting Wednesday, and the United Nations and Syrian rebels are in a standoff over U.N. peacekeepers who've been detained amid the fighting.
Here's where the refugee crisis stands now:
Many Syrians flee to other countries with few or no belongings, traumatized by the horrors of war and the pain of lost relatives.
"It was a very difficult decision to leave my home. I never wanted to -- ever," one refugee in Lebanon told Save the Children. But the missiles and cluster bombs left her no choice, she said.
The scene at the Jordanian-Syrian border this week highlights the desperation.
Elderly women, wounded men and entire families scampered across the border under the cover of night.
A baby, wounded in the head by shrapnel, cried as the sound of shelling echoed in the distance.
"There are men left, but the families have fled in very large numbers in all of Daraa," one refugee said. "You can now count the people left on your fingers. Syria is emptying."
While host families have taken in some refugees, others have endured frigid weather in tent camps or struggle to pay for shelter.
A local administration office in Lebanon said it was running out of makeshift homes and heating fuel for refugees.
Some must live in places where the only source of heat is a small outdoor fire for cooking.
In Jordan, it's illegal for refugees to work, so some families have gone into deep debt to keep their children alive, Save the Children said.
A 46-year-old refugee in Lebanon described the plight of his family, who has spent the past year living in an old sheep shed.
"I cry in my heart. I feel depressed. It's unjust. Is there a worse way to live than this?" the refugee, identified as Ahmed, told the aid group.
"Our situation is terrible to the maximum. We didn't expect there were humans who could live the way we are living."
Host countries: Resources pushed to the limit
The endless flood of refugees has drained resources in neighboring countries in unpredictable ways.

Fundamentally Freund: Who's Afraid of the Messiah?
05/02/2012 18:51
In our modern political context, many people are uneasy with the idea that leaders might be influenced by religious or theological belief.
Shin Bet head Yuval Diskin at HLS int'l conference

Though he has yet to appear, Israel's long-awaited Redeemer is very much in the news these days.
From the
Sydney Morning Herald
down under to the
Vancouver Sun
up yonder, headlines around the world trumpeted former Shin Bet director Yuval Diskin's charge on Friday that Israel's "messianic" leadership is misleading the public on Iran.
Speaking at a public forum in Kfar Saba, Diskin insisted that an Israeli strike against the Ayatollahs' nuclear installations would not halt Iran's drive to obtain atomic weapons.
He lambasted Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Ehud Barak, attacking them personally and declaring in no uncertain terms that, "I don't believe in the prime minister or the defense minister. I really don't believe in a leadership that makes decisions out of messianic feelings."
Referring to them dismissively as "our two messiahs", Diskin added that "I'm telling you, I've seen them from up close, and they're not messiahs."
The press of course had a field day with all this, lapping up the fact that one of Israel's most senior security establishment figures had taken a swing at his former bosses on such a sensitive issue.
But while much of the attention was focused on the Iranian angle as well as the political ramifications of Diskin's remarks, there is one question that was completely overlooked: When did having a messianic impulse become a bad thing? Or, to put it more succinctly: who's afraid of the Messiah?
To be sure, in our modern political context, many people are uneasy with the idea that leaders might be influenced by religious or theological beliefs.
We like to think that they make cold calculations based purely on an assessment of the overall situation while taking into account nothing other than the national interest.
Clearly, however, that is a naive oversimplification, if only because every leader is also a human being whose decision-making is shaped and influenced by the values, principles and beliefs that he holds.
Furthermore, whether Diskin realizes it or not, it was a messianic world-view that lay the foundation for the birth of this country.
Indeed, as Barak noted when he responded to Diskin's broadside, it was none other than David Ben-Gurion, Israel's first prime minister, who said that Zionism is a messianic movement.
And Theodore Herzl, too, though avowedly secular, was also inspired by messianic hopes.
As the Hebrew University's Prof. Robert S. Wistrich noted in an article entitled "Theodore Herzl: Between Messianism and Politics", the founder of modern-day political Zionism "was attracted to the Messiah legends of the Jews from early adolescence."
A year before his death, Herzl confided to the Hebrew writer Reuven Brainin that he had dreamt as a child of twelve that he would play a leading role in Israel's redemption.
Herzl described the dream as follows: "The King Messiah came, a glorious and majestic old man, took me in his arms and swept off with me on the wings of the wind. On one of the shining clouds we encountered the figure of Moses… The Messiah called to Moses: 'It is for this child that I have prayed!' And to me he said: 'Go and declare to the Jews that I shall come soon and perform great wonders and great deeds for my people and for the whole world!'"
In light of this, would Diskin now express a lack of confidence in Herzl and Ben-Gurion and their achievements?
The fact is that since the dawn of time, Jews have believed in the coming of the Messiah, anxiously awaiting his arrival and hoping for the better world that he will usher in.
As the late scholar of Jewish mysticism Gershom Scholem noted in his groundbreaking work,
The Messianic Idea in Judaism
, "Judaism, in all of its forms and manifestations, has always maintained a concept of redemption as an event which takes place publicly, on the stage of history and within the community."
Three times daily, Jews appeal to the Creator to send the Messiah. In the
prayer, we say, "May the offshoot of your servant David soon flower… for we await Your salvation all day."
And every Sabbath, a special prayer for the State of Israel authorized by the Chief Rabbinate is recited which states, "Our Father in Heaven, Israel's Rock and Redeemer, bless the State of Israel, the first flowering of our redemption."
The messianic urge, and the hope inherent to it, is in part what kept the Jewish people alive throughout the ages.
Staring long and hard at the horrors of exile, it was the dream of a brighter future that sustained our ancestors through their darkest hours and gave them a reason to carry on.
As Jews, we are expected to believe with complete faith that even if he tarries, the Messiah will yet come.
For Diskin to deride this creed is appalling and he should be ashamed of himself for mocking one of the fundamental doctrines of Judaism.
But let him say whatever he wishes. I, along with countless other Jews, will continue to long for the day when, as the prophet Isaiah (51:11) put it, "those the L-rd has rescued will return. They will enter Zion with singing and everlasting joy will crown their heads.Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee away." May it happen soon.

The room was clean but outdated and in need of repair. The shower leaked and was noisy. The beds were comfortable, but it was hard to keep temperature in room regulated with the window unit. The continental breakfast needed upgrading as well. Sweet rolls were stale, milk was warm, and there was no coffee the second day.Tikras "Hotels.com" svečio atsiliepimas
"So-so Place To Stay"
It was cheap and clean but the beds were uncomfortable and the "breakfast" was so sparse you could barely even call it continental. It was just 2 kinds of cold cereal, some Eggo waffles, vending machine cinnamon rolls and juice or coffee. We stayed for 3 days and on one of the days they did have hard boiled eggs. The staff was friendly enough. I don't […] think I will stay here again. Skaityti daugiauTikras "Hotels.com" svečio atsiliepimas

Older hotel, but very clean and well kept. The large counter and sink area with large mirror was well lighted and both my husband and I could use it at the same time.

"Great Experience for Just Passing Through"
My husband and I stopped here on our way to Las Vegas, and we were extremely pleased. I booked through Expedia, accidentally for the wrong days, and the Expedia agent & hotel took care of it without any issues. Only charged us the less than $5 difference for the date change. The hotel was easy to find off Interstate 15, and there was plenty of parking. […] Check-in was fast and easy, and the staff was helpful and friendly. Even though we had to carry our luggage upstairs, it wasn't hard or far. Our room was clean and comfortable. The room was quiet even though it was off a main road. We had a king size bed, and appreciated the couch/table area. It was convenient for laptop setup. We appreciated the fast, free Wi-fi. We had a maintenance issue with our sink, and within 20-25 minutes , a staff member came to fix it. He was courteous and efficient. A/C worked well. There are plenty of restaurants and shopping nearby which we appreciated. Water pressure was great in the large bathtub/shower combo. Towels were soft and fluffy, and we had plenty of them. Ice machine and pop machine was easy to find. Continental breakfast in the morning was delicious. Our check-out was just as speedy. We will definitely stay here again.

Will never stay here again. Pulled the sheets back and found four hairs in the bed. Had a small hole in the bathroom wall with an ant crawling out of it.

Front desk staff was very kind - front office was comfortable and well maintained. The room was in fine condition for a super 8 - it was definitely clean.

A lot of the reviews here also mention the amazing breakfast […] - unfortunately we got up a little too late to try it out, but I'm guessing it must be okay because the staff was nice and it's mentioned often in other reviews. I'd stay here again if I had to stay in St. George because it was clean, relatively inexpensive, and the guy at the front desk seemed like he'd had all of his shots, and even seemed like a regular, nice human being.

"Nothing Terrible - Nothing Great"
Nothing great, nothing terrible. Spent two nights there while hiking in Zion National Park. I felt that a Super 8 isn't really worth a hundred bucks a night, but it's all we could find on a short notice. No odd smells until we turned on the A/C unit. I don't know why turning it on would make the room smell of cigarette smoke but it did. A few oddities. […] The bathroom fan runs 24-7. You can shut the door and it's not noticeable. Not sure why they don't open the pool until 10 am. At least 50% of the guests had already left the property by that time of the day. The Hot Tub could have used a cleaning. I used it anyway to soak after a like hike in Zion. Breakfast was okay. Toasted frozen waffles or a microwaved cinnamon roll were the only hot items available. They REALLY could use more seating in the breakfast area. 3 tables with 12 chairs for the whole motel. Get in there at 7am and you won't have a problem. If you go to breakfast at 10, you might have to carry your food to your room. We stayed two nights and they didn't replace our towels or empty our waste baskets. Room appeared to be clean. Quiet enough. Beds and pillows were good. A/C unit was pretty noisy and smelled odd. Like I said at the beginning......nothing terrible-nothing great.

It would have been nice to have been able to go swimming at 9:00 instead of 10:00 The pool was locked from 10:00 pm to 10:00 am.

"Not bad"
We were just looking for a cheap place to stay near the courthouse and this place fit the bill. The room was clean even though it was basic.

They were […] also very friendly. The pool was nice and heated and we had it all to ourselves. The only negative was the breakfast. It was the saddest continental breakfast I have ever seen. Don't even bother with it, just walk across the parking lot to the Wagon Wheel diner for a great breakfast at a very low price. Skaityti daugiauTikras "Hotels.com" svečio atsiliepimas

I went and purchased my own. on the whole everything was good. It''s too bad that I have a lactose intolrance and therefor had to purchase my own kind of milk.Tikri "Expedia" svečių atsiliepimai
"Old and decaying"
This is an old motel that needs updating desperately. Everything about the hotel is falling apart. The pool coping is very dangerous and is falling off in large chunks. The shower drains are slow, the beds are non-supporting, the carpet is 25 years old, the fans in the toilet are non-functional, the air conditioners are non-repairable (outside coils) […] and won't blow cold air consistently, the hot water in the morning breakfast bar was cold. But besides that the location is great. Too bad it doesn't have a decent management to take care of a good location. The profits for this property are apparently more important at this location than the customers satisfaction and safety. Skaityti daugiauTikras "Hotels.com" svečio atsiliepimas

"great overnight short stay"
Clean and economical. Breakfast is ok for the money. Frozen waffles less than desirable. The woman could have been more attentive to replenish the food when there was customers. Also a reminder of the time change would be great. We almost missed breakfast. The shower was a surprise!! Would stay there again for one night.Tikras "Hotels.com" svečio atsiliepimas
"Got the job done"
This hotel is perfect just-staying-for-one-night-while-on-a-road-trip. The air conditioner had trouble making a dent in the heat, but the front desk staff were really helpful in cajoling more cool out of it. (By morning, it was nice and cool in the room.) Bed was comfortable, I slept well, everything was clean. Downtown St George is very quiet and low-traffic. […] I had two wonderful meals at 25 Main (only a couple blocks walk from the Super 8), and highly recommend them. Skaityti daugiauTikri "Expedia" svečių atsiliepimai
"Best pool in Utah."
The stay was great-two nights. The pool was excellent and the manager recommended we go to el cafe rio which we did on both nights. He was right as the food was super and it was an easy walk to it. Don't stay anywhere else in st George.Tikras "Hotels.com" svečio atsiliepimas

text: Duncan, there's a pile of acrows rusting away in a pile and David's decided the owner's never going to use them now. None of them would be suitable for construction work. The threads will be fused with rust so the question will be how many will be usable for your purposes. He'll check them out later this week and we'll see if we can retrieve about 4 threads for you. We mightn't get 4 but I'm hoping for a couple at least.
