Right to Petition the Government
The right to speak out about government's abuse of power or its failure to act is at the crux of the First Amendment's protections.The ACLU of Colorado has challenged law enforcement intimidation and arrest of peaceful protestors in numerous cases over the year. Notable highlights include litigation over the State's regulation of demonstration permits and parade routes leading up to the Democratic National Convention, and revealing the existence of the Denver Police Department's "Spy Files," kept on peaceful demonstrators and activists.

The President and Congress may not be in agreement about how best to deal with climate change, but it appears that they do agree on at least one thing: they'd like to give you money to trade in your old (polluting) car.
Under the terms of a provisional agreement between the president and Democrats in the House of Representatives, a "Cash for Clunkers" program would look something like this: Anyone who owns a car that gets less than 18 miles-per-gallon could trade it in for a voucher to offset the purchase of a more fuel-efficient car. Depending on exactly how fuel-efficient that new car or truck is, that voucher could be worth as much as $4,500—at least for the lucky first one million trade-ins.
But how enticing will any "cash for clunkers" program be? The appeal of fuel-efficient vehicles tracks with the economy and the cost of gas, said Brett Smith, director of the automotive analysis group at the Center for Automotive Research in Ann Arbor, Michigan. "It's driven for most people by fuel prices and economics," Smith told ScientificAmerican.com earlier this year. "As incentive decreases, you find out what that true percent of the market is that's buying for environmental passion than the economic incentive." The voucher will, at least, create an economic incentive that backs up the environmental one.
Regardless, all of this will be on hold until the details of the overall climate bill—of which this "Cash for Clunkers" program would be part—are finalized.

Yes, I traded in an old banger for a new car. But alas! there are no fuel-efficient cars on the market. It is possible to make cars that will do 100mpg, but car companies do not market them. This proves the lie about so-called free competition forcing prices and costs down...
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisIt seems to me that if one got good money for an old polluter, the amount could be coupled to the improvement much in the spirit of carbon offsets. The worse the car, the more the reward, but only one to a customer to keep people from mining the wrecking yard for profit.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisAny co2 save by the difference in gas mileage between my 21-year old truck and a new model is dwarfed by the amount of co2 required to build the new vehicle. Brown Betsy runs until she dies. Besides, why should the government subsidize me to buy a new vehicle I do not need? A waste of tax dollars and further dependence upon a Social Government.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisAnd every single one of those "clunkers" will be shipped to Mexico or some other 3rd world county so somebody can make that money back.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisYour cruddy 21 year old truck isn't just producing excess carbon, it's giving off particulates (smog), and probably carbon monoxide and NOx. Everyone would be much better off if you put Brown Betsy to sleep.
Anyway, the government is already giving Detroit relief money, so we might as well upgrade our environment at the same time.
Who has ever seen a car that gets more than 100 miles per gallon from an internal combustion engine? I have a 450 cc four stroke modern motorcycle that only gets 70 miles per gallon. How would you get a car that holds four people, that weighs at least 4 times as much to get at least 50% better gas mileage? The conspiracy theory sounds good but maybe you could tell us where you have personally seen or heard of this amazing vehicle.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisneuroto, I've been driving this amazing vehicle for 9 years now. It's a 2000 Honda Insight and at 156,000 miles still gets 80MPG highway but in it's prime 110MPG highway was a regular thing. A couple years ago some guys got their Insight to go 179MPG for a whole tank. In 1985, I had the predecessor, the Honda CRX-HF which regularly got 60MPG highway. We don't have better efficiency because gas is so cheap fuel economy isn't that important to most drivers as long as it's over about 30MPG, they'd rather have more power.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisTheo, that would depend on how many miles Betsy gets a year. If she's going 1000 miles a year, the pollution of building a new truck would far outweigh what she's putting into the air but if she's doing the usual 13,000 miles a year it'd be better for the old girl to retire.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisOh, well then let's turn in the older, less mpg-efficient authomobiles for oxen until the 100mpg models are being sold to the mass market.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisI had a 1985 Honda CRX-HF that got just over 50 mpg. Put 150,000miles on it before it rusted out. But Honda learned from Detroit - replaced the CRX-HF with another two seater, Del Sol, that was powerful and cost 2 times as much - sigh. Then Ford brought out the Focus in Europe - 1600 cc - went 110 mph on the autobaun. We came back to the states and waited for it to be sold here. Good news: it only took three years to reach the states. Bad news: only available with a 2400 cc engine - wadda ya need 2400 cc for if 1600 cc will go 110 mph? I can still hear Ford complaining that they can't POSSIBLY meet proposed mpg standards - I think I heard them whining about that from their corp. jets flying above my hometown.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisThis is a green fallacy. Producing a brand new car pollutes and uses a lot of energy. Newer cars also contain more environmentally destructive materials especially hybrids and their batteries.
Using an old car, while polluting more on a daily basis, requires zero pollution to produce, since it's already been done. Plus, junking a perfectly usable car flies in the face of 'conservation', which is a bedrock of environmental thinking. Not to mention the thought of the government paying people to discard perfectly usable goods to 'stimulate' the production of these goods is absolutely ridiculous. What will happen when cars start to last 15 years without any problems? Sales will plummet, then will Uncle Sam pay us to throw them out just to save car comapnies yet again?
Basically we're bailing out auto companies once again by subsidizing car purchases. It's just stupid.
Now if you were to actually trade in your old gas sucking truck, get the new vehicle (which will release CO2 to be manufactured), and then keep this new more fuel efficient car as long as you have kept your current car, in the end you would be preventing a good amount of CO2 from entering the atmosphere.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisActually if the car companies made cars that got 100 MGP. They would sell phenominally. That wont happen though not because lack of demand, but government intervention and ties to oil companies. OPEC countries would go up in flames if the US started producing cars that got 100 mpg. Imagine what that would do for our foriegn policy in the MidEast.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisNeuroto : If you get such poor mileage from your motorbike, then maybe you should fit it with an econostat and learn green driving methods. With an econostat fitted to a renault 11 I doubled my mileage, but kept getting tail-gaited by gas-guzzlers who were unhappy driving at 50mph... And remember, technical college students get over 3,000 kilometers per litre with home-made prototypes, so why can't car manufacturers get better results? Two-seater lightweight cars are the answer!
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisThis bill would put every charity car donation program in the nation out of business since the amount of the voucher would be much greater than the tax deduction. The solution is to simply allow the charity to issue the voucher in lieu of the tax deduction. The charity would then junk the car in accordance with the bill. This way, everyone wins, the car dealer, car maker, car buyer and the charity.

Perspectives: Chemical Processing Online
2013 Chemical Processing Chart Toppers
A variety of content garnered particular attention
I have a satellite radio in my car. I often get stuck on the 70s channel because Casey Kasem's American Top 40 reels me in every time. I love knowing what people were listening to years ago. For example, the No. 1 hit for the week ending Dec. 4, 1976, was Rod Stewart's "Tonight's the Night." I like the No. 2 song better, which was "The Rubberband Man" by The Spinners — but that's just me.
While I don't have the golden voice of Mr. Kasem, I do have access to chart toppers for ChemicalProcessing.com. And it seems fitting to end out the year with a list of popular articles, news items and expert advice. The ranking is based on page views in 2013.
Top Articles in 2013: Reliability, Safety and Salaries
No. 1: Reliability Efforts Broaden
Expanding from a plant-based focus provides significant benefits.
Reliability improvement remains imperative for chemical makers. Most companies focus their efforts at the plant and asset level but a broader approach promises even better results. At least that's what two major firms — Air Products and Chemicals, Allentown, Pa., and Dow Chemical, Midland, Mich. — are finding.
No. 2: Process Safety Begins In the Board Room
Senior management should take six important steps.
Major accidents such as those at Texas City, Texas, Buncefield, U.K., and in the Gulf of Mexico have highlighted the critical role played by senior managers in the process industries. Effective leadership is essential to develop a positive safety culture that remains constantly vigilant toward process safety risks.
No. 3: 2013 Salary Survey: Salaries Aren't Leveling Off
Annual salary survey results show slight improvements.
Numerous reports this year indicate a positive outlook for the chemical industry. Now, those who responded to Chemical Processing's 2013 Salary and Job Satisfaction Survey seem to echo these findings — salaries, raises and bonuses all continue to rise, further demonstrating prospects are bright.
Top News in 2013: Layoffs, Hazardous Chemicals and Safety
No. 1: Dow Corning to Layoff 500 Workers
On Jan. 10 Chemical Processing reported that Dow Corning Corp. planned to cut its global workforce by approximately 500 people in response to slower-than-expected growth.
No. 2: OSHA Launches Chemical Substitution Toolkit, Updated Occupational Exposure Limits Table
On Oct. 23 Chemical Processing reported that the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), as part of the ongoing effort to protect workers from exposure to hazardous chemicals, will host a conference to announce the launch of two web-based resources.
No. 3: CSB Report: Chevron Ignored Safety Procedures Prior to Refinery Fire
On April 18 Chemical Processing reported that the U.S. Chemical Safety Board (CSB) concluded that Chevron failed to adequately analyze and document refinery safety technology that could have prevented a refinery fire in Richmond, Calif., Aug. 6, 2012.
Top Expert Advice in 2013: Corrosion, Mixing and Pumping
No. 1: What is the difference between 304 and 316 stainless steel?
Chemical Processing's corrosion expert Brian Dalder, an engineering consultant at Eli Lilly and Co., Lafayette, Ind., and a registered professional engineer, explained the difference to readers.
No. 2: How do I design my agitation system?
Chemical Processing's most prolific expert is Dave Dickey, senior consultant for MixTech Inc., Coppell, Texas. Dave's advice focuses on mixing processes and equipment; he gave a thoughtful answer for designing an agitation system.
No. 3: Can the suction size of the pump be bigger than the pipeline?
Ross Mackay, president of Ross Mackay Associates Ltd., Aurora, Ontario, a firm he started in 1990 to provide training and consulting on pumps, serves as our expert on pumps. He addressed the size question with ease.
So there you have it. . . the top stories and questions of 2013. Since Casey ended his Top 40 shows with a letter, I'd like to do the same. In fact, this quick note earned Eric D. Finley a $25 American Express gift card for just taking the time to comment on Mark Rosenzweig's editorial "Hoax Highlights Publishing Problem." Each month we name a new winner — you could be next.
Here's what Eric had to say: "This might have been a good moment to share with us, your readers, how you review articles submitted for publication. Anyway, good magazine. I read several articles a month."
Thanks Eric -- Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars.

A hamster got a police escort of sorts early Tuesday morning, after cops in Beaverton, Oregon arrested its owner on a DUI charge. OregonLive.com reports 27-year-old Nicole Huey was pulled over on suspicion of driving under the influence, when officers noticed Huey's only passenger was the hamster on her lap.
According to cops, Huey said she had nobody to care for the rodent once she's behind bars, so cops should "just kill it." Instead, three officers corralled the hamster into a makeshift container, and put it into protective custody at a local animal shelter overnight while its owner slept it off in a nearby jail.

Social media deployment within companies may be expanding quickly, but it's taking the law some time to catch up. Over the last few weeks, two cases have highlighted the complexity of Facebook "likes" and sent contradictory, somewhat unsettling messages to corporate marketers and employees.
In the first, a Library of Congress employee filed a complaint with his employer's Equal Employment Opportunity Complaints office, claiming he was fired after his supervisor found that he had "liked" the Two Dads Facebook page, a site about same-sex couples as parents.
According to the complaint, after employee Peter TerVeer "liked" the page, his formerly positive employment evaluations turned negative, his supervisor pressed a religious anti-gay agenda on him and he was finally fired. A response is expected this month.
In the second instance (Bland v. Roberts), six plaintiffs claimed they were fired after their employer, a local sheriff, learned they "liked" the Facebook page of his political rival. After the sheriff won re-election, he fired the employees.
The case, heard in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, found in favor of the sheriff. The judge said the firing was warranted because Facebook "liking" does not rise to the level of free speech and therefore is not protected under the First Amendment.
Together, these cases represent a new front in the tug of war between employers, employee privacy and social media. The line between social media and corporate communications is blurring as some companies ask employees to promote corporate communications on their private social media accounts.
According to Arthur Bright, an analyst at the Citizen Media Law Project (CMLP), these cases are "an issue of first impression" because there is no case law governing how social media and free speech intersect.
"There are no cases involving constitutional protections for "likes,' "pokes,' "+1s' or any of those other one-click denotations of approval," Bright wrote on CMLP's blog. "I'm sure [the judge] is a wise man, but I think he whiffed on this one."
According to Randy Enochs, principal of Glendale, Wis.-based Enochs Law Firm, even though there is no precedent for "liking," there are plenty of cases involving nonverbal speech that are constitutionally protected, such as wearing an armband or religious symbols.
"But this is a matter of attorneys having to educate the judges," Enochs said. "I think some of the judges don't really get social media. They don't have Facebook pages themselves."
Ultimately, Enochs believes that all social media activity will be determined to be protected speech.
However, according to Michael Schmidt, a partner at Philadelphia-based law firm Cozen O'Connor, there are significant obstacles to giving Facebook "likes" full protection.
"One area that will be tested is whether "liking' reflects substantive speech," Schmidt said. "Another area is whether "liking' constitutes a positive reference. I think it will be difficult to prove that simply "liking' without any other action has substantive meaning."
Ultimately, both lawyers advised caution when it comes to mixing company business and personal social media accounts, both for the companies' and employees' protection.
"My position is that employers should stay out of it," Enochs said. "Managers shouldn't be friends with employees, and employees shouldn't be friends with other employees."
Enochs also cautioned about applying the results of any decisions in these recent cases to private companies, which aren't obligated to offer the same First Amendment protection to employees as public employers such as the Library of Congress.

The graphics look pretty sweet, I played it for a couple of hours last night. I'm hoping that once the first level is over it will be more free roaming, like Just Cause 2. In the Asylum you can only grapple to certain things and it is very lineal. I'm hoping it's just a glorified tutorial.
Did you end up playing it? What did you think? I loved it for the first few hours, but then found it a little repetitive and I got bored.

George Armstrong Custer, (born Dec. 5, 1839—died June 25, 1876), U.S. cavalry officer who distinguished himself in the American Civil War (1861–65) but later led his men to death in one of the most controversial battles in U.S. history.
After graduation from the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, N.Y. (1861), Custer served in the Civil War, attached to the staff of Gen. George B. McClellan. At 23 he became brigadier general of volunteers in command of a Michigan cavalry brigade. He distinguished himself in numerous battles, and, during the closing days of the war, his relentless pursuit of the Confederate commander in chief, Gen. Robert E. Lee, helped to hasten Lee's surrender at Appomattox, Va., on April 9, 1865.
In 1866 Custer was ordered to Kansas to take part in Gen. Winfield S. Hancock's expedition designed to awe hostile Plains Indians with the military strength of the U.S. Army. Instead of waiting for supplies to be loaded at Ft. Harker, he went to Ft. Riley to visit his wife and was court-martialed in 1867 at Ft. Leavenworth and suspended for one year without pay. Increased hostility of the Plains Indians, however, led to his reinstatement, and in September 1868 he rejoined the 7th Cavalry in Kansas. In November his command surprised and destroyed the Cheyenne chief Black Kettle's village on the Washita River.
Encyclopædia Britannica, Inc.In 1874 Custer led an expedition to investigate rumours of gold deposits in the Black Hills of South Dakota. The region had been recognized by treaty as the sacred hunting ground of the Indians, primarily the Sioux and Cheyenne. The gold rush was on, however, and the U.S. government directed that all Indians move onto reservations by Jan. 31, 1876, or be deemed hostile.
In their remote and scattered winter camps, it was likely that many Indian tribes did not receive these orders and could not have reached the government agencies with their women and children if they had. When the hunting season arrived in the spring, the tribes moved out to join Sitting Bull's encampment on the Little Bighorn River in Montana.
Travel MontanaCuster, now a lieutenant colonel in command of one column of a projected two-pronged attack under the command of Gen. Alfred Terry, arrived near the Little Bighorn on the night of June 24, 1876. Terry's column was to join him in two days. Instead of waiting for Terry, Custer decided to attack on June 25, possibly in the belief that his presence was known to the Indians. Of the more than 200 men who followed Custer into battle, not one lived to tell the story. A single horse, Comanche, survived and for many years thereafter appeared in 7th Cavalry parades, saddled but riderless. Custer was given a hero's burial at West Point.

Jennifer Aniston and Jason Bateman star in The switch, an offbeat comedy about Kassie, a smart, fun-loving single woman who, despite her slightly neurotic best friend Wally's objections, decides it's time to have a baby - even if it means doing it by herself… with a little help from a charming sperm donor (Patrick Wilson). But, unbeknownst to her, Kassie's plans go awry because of a last-minute switch that isn't discovered until seven years later when Wally finally gets acquainted with Kassie's precocious - though slightly neurotic - son.

MINI Mercedes?
Filed under: Luxury Cars & Autos
Platform sharing has been around for almost as long as cars have been around, so it comes as no surprise that Mercedes is looking to collaborate with another automaker to cut costs in producing its next A- and B-class vehicles. We're just a little surprised that it may work with arch rival BMW in getting it done.
BMW's MINI, the cult classic it took over in 1994 in a package deal with Rover, could be the basis for a new small Mercedes vehicle, while MINI might borrow SMART's DNA for a smaller version of the already-tiny MINI. The collaboration would save Mercedes some money and help BMW expand its MINI line.
Check this space in September -- a partnership may be announced at the Frankfurt Motor Show.

Summary (Masterplots, Fourth Edition)
Readers familiar with other great "defenses" of poetry may find Percy Bysshe Shelley's A Defence of Poetry unusual, even confusing. There is little practical analysis of the elements of good literary work. There is no methodical history of poetry, as one reads in Sir Philip Sidney's Defence of Poesie (1595). There are no pronouncements about rules of composition. Instead, Shelley offers a philosophical analysis of the role of the poet as a special kind of person, one who can see the essential harmonies of the world beneath the discordant images people find in their everyday lives. Whereas Aristotle, Sidney, or John Dryden see the poet as a superb craftsman capable of delighting readers through the masterful blending of form and content, Shelley assigns the poet a higher calling: the revelation of truth about life and the promotion of universal betterment.
These high claims are justified by Shelley's insistence that the production of poetry is not simply a craft. Rather, the true poet is a visionary who is inspired to create art as a means of revealing something about the nature of the world. The poem itself is merely an attempt to reproduce that vision. Such claims have been misinterpreted, and Shelley has been accused of promoting automatic writing or of devaluing the importance of craftsmanship. On the contrary: Shelley sees the imagination as a shaping power that gives form to the poet's vision, and only those who master...

Summary (Magill's Survey of World Literature, Revised Edition)
Shelley wrote A Defence of Poetry as a reply to Thomas Love Peacock's The Four Ages of Poetry (1820). Peacock thought that poetry grows less relevant as society advances and that Romantic poetry is barbaric and childish. Shelley admitted that some people and ages are less poetical than others, but he argued vehemently that poetry is humanity's highest mental faculty, relevant to every age. Shelley sees poetry as the power of understanding and imagining new combinations of thought. Thus, it is the source of all knowledge and progress. He rejects small-minded definitions of poetry as word games played with rhymes and meters. Even prose can be poetry inasmuch as it expresses the imagination.
A poet sees a world not yet seen by most people. He grasps order hidden beneath chaos, truth scrambled by superstition, beauty smeared by corruption. Poets create new forms of opinions and action that enable society to progress. Thus, they wield more power in society than politicians and business executives. "Poets," Shelley declares, "are the unacknowledged legislators of the world." For example, Dante gave medieval Europe a new Christian myth that made it less violent and more free. Ultimately, poetry enlarges the mental and moral capacities of humankind.
Shelley contrasts poetry with reason. Reason is calculating selfhood; poetry, the impulse toward pleasure and love. "Poetry, and the principle of Self, of which money is the...

A good place to start would be our Craft section. Check out the entries under the "Conversion" category for fundamentals that would work for any situation.I am new to the world of metal miniatures. I am sad to say I have been tainted mostly by plastic prepainted ones, but with my trip to gencon I got to see the light. A group of people from Texas were at my table talking about customizing mini's. I want to have at least a few customized ones. I pretty much gutted out the God's of Greyhawk and put ones of my players and a few of my retired characters as gods. To make things more fun I want to have metal mini's of the God's in my world. I have no clue on how to order mini's so I can replace arms, weapons and all that. One example of a mini I want to put together is a elven cleric that looks slightly dark like, wearing blue robe carrying a scythe. Others a gnome that can sit in a big robot, a manniqun. If anyone can tell me how I order to customize them, that would be very helpful.
Another good place to ask would be the conversions section of this forum. But I'd suggest going in with more specific questions.

Any retailer could contact us directly, or if they work with a distributor we work through (such as Alliance, Diamond COmics, ACD, etc). It is worth asking the store manager if they use one of those distribution chains, although the store may be unable to order outside of the defined product lines that HQ offers them.I'm posting here because I don't know where to ask this question. My FLGS is closed. I have a national chain store called Hastings that carries comics, role playing books in addition to the other stuff. Would they be able to order Reaper products on my behalf? Do any national chains carry or have the ability to carry Reaper miniatures?

Even if they can't get it for you, it IS definitely worth asking for. Unless they have a gamer on staff, that's the only way they'll know there is any demand for these products. Comic book shops are a good one to ask, too - because some of the comic distributors also carry game stuff. Those distributors may also be providing stuff to other companies where you wouldn't necessarily look for gaming stuff - years back, we managed to get our local family fun center (mini-golf/arcade/go-karts) to carry gaming items.It is worth asking the store manager if they use one of those distribution chains, although the store may be unable to order outside of the defined product lines that HQ offers them.

Some say that cowboys need nothing more than a hat, a horse and the will to ride. The Stetson Boaz can be that hat to go along with your horse. The Boaz has a 4" brim and a 4 1/4" pinchfront. Where the brim and the crown meet, there is a leather hat band with silver accents and a Stetson Hat Pin. Additionally, underneath, there is a Dri-Lex® sweatband that is designed to help wick away moisture from your face and skin as best as you can. *** Please note that this is a production item and will take 1-4 weeks to ship. ***
Your Stetson hat is more than just a head covering—it is a statement. Conveying your individual image, from the top down, each of these hats represents the essential spirit of the West. The Stetson name has remained synonymous with quality, ever since its launch in 1865. Today's Stetson cowboy hats for men and women are worn by Western enthusiasts around the world, but are still relied on by ranchers in the Western and Southern United States, Western Canada, and Northern Mexico, as well as rodeo riders and country music performers, everywhere. Whether you work in the ranching environment, or on a concert stage, there is a style of hat to fit you and your life comfortably, in any season. Stetson hats use only the best quality materials, ranging from Stetson raffia straw hats, to soft wool felt, and even American bison fur blends, many with leather and silver accents. Indulge your need for luxury with one of our premium fur hats, in genuine beaver, or, for the ultimate status statement, premium chinchilla, with diamond studded hatband. Hat Country is a certified Stetson retailer.

Joining Alex on stage will be with Kelsey Warren (Guitar). Howard Alper (Drums) & DJ Tiger, proving that this is definitely a show not to be missed. Launch party details below.

Alex Kelly's new album 'Orange Circle' is out now, you can purchase here.
LAUNCH PARTY 327 Bowery, New York, NY 10003 (212) 228-0228 $8 General Admission
The Story:
Alex Kelly is an American singer/songwriter born in Queens New York. She left New York City for Buffalo to study business at Buffalo State College. In 2007 Alex met Robby Takac (Goo Goo Dolls), who hand-picked her as lead singer and co-writer for his electro-pop side band, Amungus. "The truth is…" EP was released in 2008, with the song "Bad Kitty" appearing in the popular iTunes' video game, Tap Tap Revenge 3. Radio play for the EP, via Kiss 98.5fm, and 88.7fm (NPR), landed the band a prime spot in the Rockin at the Knox music series, featuring The B52's and Metric. After three years under Takac's musical influence, Alex eagerly channeled her energies into her first solo project.
Alex moved back to New York City, where she produced and released her debut EP Sticky Butterfly, in spring 2010. With its powerful vocal performance, unique sound, and fearless lyrical content, Sticky Butterfly introduced a new sonic chapter of Alex Kelly's music. The EP was featured on Channel 7 WKBW, Carma Dee TV, Z100 New Radio, Afropunk.com and distributed through iTunes (worldwide), Amazonmp3.com (in the US and UK) and various other social media retailers. Later that year, Sony Creative Software launched a remix contest/campaign for the EP's first single and video "Funky Hydrophonic", hosted by Acidplanet.com. In addition, the New Music Seminar nominated Alex for the 2011 AOV List.
For her live shows, Alex Kelly with DJ Lopro and (pILLOW tHEORY's) guitarist Kelsey Warren formed an eclectic electro-rock trio. The band honed their craft performing at underground art galleries and exclusive parties to display their unique blend of performance art, visuals and sound. These smaller niche shows paved the way to larger, trendy New York City venues such as Webster Hall, Bowery Electric and Arlene's Grocery.
In June 2012 Alex Kelly will release her debut full length album entitled Orange Circle. To expand on her sound, Alex collaborated with Kelsey Warren and engineer Justin Rose. The sassy dance-rock title track "Orange Circle", is the first single to be released in May. The band will see the addition of DJ Tiger and Howard Alper on drums this coming show season. The Orange Circle album release party will take place on June 25, 2012 at The Bowery Electric, NYC.

COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO. -- Residents in one Colorado Springs neighborhood are upset over a foresty project clearing out the greenery behind their homes, as part of a larger city-wide fire mitigation.
It's taking place in a "Greenbelt" at Old Broadmoor Road and Sycamore Road, just off Lake Avenue.
Residents are upset, saying the city didn't give them enough notice to have a say in the drastic changes to their landscape.
The city said a neighbor in the area reached out, concerned that the "greenbelt" looked more like a jungle.
City Parks, Trails and Open Space evaluated the area and decided to take action to clean it up.
"It's pretty dramatic. There was a lot of non-native plant material that moved in, essentially choking everything else," Kurt Schroeder, Park Operations and Development Manager for Colorado Springs explained.
"The work that we're doing is to remove non-native species, clean it up and give those native species like the scrub oak and cottonwood a chance to flourish and regain their footing in the area," he said.
But neighbors are saying native species were removed, and the clean-up took out more than they would have liked.
"That first day it was little more than I thought it was going to be, and then they kept cutting more and more and more!" resident Joe Fletcher said. "Right outside my fence there was a nice growth of a big clump of scrub oak and choke cherry, native trees, and they cleared them out!," he added.
Other neighbors said the correspondence they received from the city didn't give them the chance to have an opinion, and didn't mention fire mitigation.
"If it's mitigation, why are we leaving dead stuff for "habitat?" They're grinding up all the mulch and leaving it on the ground. I don't think its proper mitigation technique to grind up 500 trees and leave them 6 inches thick on the ground so the story doesn't exactly hang together," Andrew Lewis, a resident whose yard backs up to the Greenbelt explained.
He said the parks, forestry and contractors he's spoken to have given him different reasons for the project.
Lewis wishes the funds used for this project could go toward what he called meaningful mitigation elsewhere. He said since the overwhelming majority of neighbors who this stretch of greenery affects would rather leave it lush, to maintain their privacy, the city shouldn't spend their time and money making the changes.
The Parks Department is understanding of a loss of privacy and sudden change to a landscape that went decades without being touched.
"This is property that, quite honestly, we hadn't paid much attention to and unfortunately it showed," Schroeder said.
But he added that cutting down the vegetation is vital to keeping the region healthy to avoid insect infestations and wildfires.
The neighbors, on the other hand, just want a chance to have some say in what stays and what goes, hoping there can be a happy medium between healthy and scarce.

Well before the coffee is perking in many folks' homes on Sunday mornings, Eddie Harris is opening the studio in the dark.
Known as "Minister Eddie Harris" on the air, he is the voice behind the live call-in gospel music show carried from 6 a.m. to 12 p.m. on 96.3 Kiss-FM.
It's one of the most-listened-to broadcasts in the Augusta area for its time slot, according to Arbitron ratings. Depending on the hour, he sometimes reels in 39 percent of the radio audience.
The Rev. Harris mixes songs, commercials, public service announcements and weather reports while keeping the beat and an eye on the request line.
"I was the first African-American to do gospel music on FM in the CSRA as a call-in show. I made a little history there," said the Rev. Harris, who started his program in 1999 and figures he has been in broadcasting about 38 years.
About two hours into the show, he opens a segment called church roll call, when callers report anniversaries and other goings-on in their congregations. Calls come in even from outside the Augusta area, including Atlanta and Charlotte, N.C., said the Rev. Harris, who was ordained by Catch the Wind Ministry in Augusta.
Sometimes people just passing through Augusta will call and express their appreciation. It amazes him.
"Man, but it does make me sort of a little nervous that these people will call and say these things," said the Rev. Harris, whose life got a rough start.
He never knew his father. His mother abandoned him to a woman he came to know as his grandmother.
"I was kind of like Moses. She (my mother) put me in a little basket, sat me on a front porch, knocked on the door and stepped away behind some bushes. And there I was crying and going on," he said, recalling the story of how he came to be reared by Jancy Walker, of Jacksonville, Ala., who said she had been born into slavery.
Though she could neither read nor write, "she taught me a lot of things," the Rev. Harris said.
"She always told me to pay close attention to things, try to do the best, don't half-do a job," he said.
Whenever the church doors opened, she took him.
He remembers their house stood on brick columns, high enough above the ground that he could run under it. If he looked up, he could see through the boards. He hoed okra and tomatoes and fed their hogs and chickens before walking to school, carrying in a bucket the lunch Ms. Walker had made him.
"I had clothes with a lot of patches all over them. The kids would just laugh at me at the time and pick at me. I fought every day as if a day didn't pass I didn't have a fight," he said.
At Christmas, she made lots of candy, cakes and pies.
"Truly, today I can say it was a great blessing. It was more than a toy because we could eat and be full," he said.
When he was 8 or 9, he was sent to a foster home in Anniston, Ala., because Ms. Walker was too old to care for him. People there said he would never amount to anything, he said.
During high school, he got interested in electronics. He graduated in 1968 and joined the Army Signal Corps in 1977. He developed his broadcasting skills as he moved from assignment to assignment, working for a civilian radio station one place or helping a church get on the air in another. He was still in the military when he came to Augusta in 1992, working first for Davis Broadcasting, then Clear Channel.
"His radio ministry touches so many people's hearts, souls and spirits that we are proud to be associated with his program," said Barry Kaye, the vice president and general manager of Clear Channel Radio CSRA. "His listenership and ratings are nothing short of phenomenal, which shows that thousands of listeners tune in to his show every Sunday."
The Rev. Harris doesn't prepare for the show other than praying and studying the Bible before he goes on the air, he said.
"When I do that, it flows just like clockwork," he said.
