Maine and New York Through Alex Katz's Eyes
June 12, 2012
Ruth Jacobs
Alex Katz, Tracy On the Raft At 7:30, 1982, Oil on canvas, 120 in. x 72 in., Gift of the artist
For decades American painter Alex Katz has split his time between New York City and Maine. From July 14 through Dec. 30, 2012, the Colby College Museum of Art, which holds the world's largest collection of Katz's work, will present an exhibition focusing on the themes of the city and the country in Katz's work from the 1950s to the present. Read a
in the
Portland Press Herald
Drawn from the Colby Museum's collection and loans, Alex Katz: Maine/New York is curated by the New York poet and critic Carter Ratcliff, an expert on Katz's work. The exhibition will include 28 paintings and one multipart sculpture and will be accompanied by a catalog published by Charta and the Colby College Museum of Art.
Katz's connection to Maine dates to 1949, when he attended the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture. His relationship with Colby began a few years later.
A quintessential New York artist, Katz is also a summer resident of Lincolnville, Maine. Thus his subject matter varies widely, from landscape to cityscape, from rural vignette to Manhattan interior. A master of urban portraiture at its most elegant, he also paints "portraits" of trees and flower-strewn meadows. Whatever his subject, Katz—a painter of atmosphere—evokes the distinctive light of a particular time and place.
In Alex Katz: Maine/New York, the viewer will be immersed in the haze of a city afternoon, the flickering green light of a rural path, the glare of a fashionable event, the dusk as it descends on a pond in the Maine woods. At every step are encounters with the remarkable people who populate Katz's paintings. Members of his family, friends, and others who might be described as iconic figures represent the large themes that shape this artist's world—night and day, city and countryside.
A special installation of the Colby Museum's permanent collection, selected and arranged by the artist, will complement the exhibition. This exhibition, Interior Visions: Selections from the Collection by Alex Katz, will be on view from July 14 through Oct. 7, 2012 and is the third installment of the Rediscoveries exhibition series. Rediscoveries invites members of the Colby community to offer new perspectives on the permanent collection. Interior Visions will be accompanied by a catalog featuring an introductory essay by critic Sanford Schwartz and poems by John Godfrey and Jim Brodey.
After graduating from Manhattan's Cooper Union in 1949, Katz quickly found his way to the New York art world. While most of his contemporaries were following the path blazed by Willem de Kooning, Katz took a different direction. A highly accomplished draftsman, Katz possesses a refined command of his materials. He has transformed the openness of the all-over image, which is usually abstract, into the large scale and striking immediacy of a major realist style. This transformation, along with Katz's eye for the telling detail, is demonstrated by the paintings in this exhibition.
Guest curator Carter Ratcliff is a poet and art critic who has lived in New York since 1967 and has been writing about Alex Katz for almost as long. His publications include
Alex Katz
(Phaidon, 2005),
Out of the Box: The Reinvention of Art, 1965-1975
(Allworth Press, 2000),
Alex Katz: Cutouts
(Cantz Verlag, 1997), and
The Fate of Gesture: Jackson Pollock and Post-War American Art
(1996, Farrar, Straus, Giroux).
The museum will present three films on Alex Katz and his work Sunday, July 15, at 7 p.m. at Common Street Arts (20 Common Street, Waterville):
Alex Katz Painting
(1978, 28 mins.),
Alex Katz: Five Hours
(1996, 21 mins.), and
Alex Katz: What About Style?
(2003, 56 mins.).
The Colby College Museum of Art, formally established in 1959, now comprises four wings, more than 7,000 works of art, and over 28,000 square feet of exhibition space. It holds a significant permanent collection that specializes in American and contemporary art. The museum is currently undergoing an ambitious expansion of its facilities led by Frederick Fisher & Partners Architects.
The Colby College Museum of Art is free and open to the public. Museum hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sunday, noon to 5 p.m. Closed Mondays.

Deadly clashes erupt between pro- and anti-Syrian regime residents in Homs, Moscow refuses to recognize Libyan Transitional Council, rights group highlights "alarming rate" of Palestinian children jailed for throwing stones, and more.

Deadly clashes erupt between pro- and anti-Syrian regime residents in Homs [BBC Arabic, UK]
Presenter, Male #1
According to reports from Syria, military forces backed by tanks have been encircling the town of al-Bukamal in eastern Syria since this morning. This comes amid reports that a number of members of the army in the town have defected. An eyewitness from the town said that he saw the army unloading its special forces in preparation to storm it. In Homs, according to reports, about 30 people were killed in the last two days in what was described as sectarian clashes between Sunnis and Alawites in the city. Meanwhile, British Foreign Minister William Hague reiterated his call to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to move forward with reforms, or step down from authority. Hague made these statements in Brussels at the European Summit about Middle Eastern issues.
Guest, Male #1 (William Hague, British Foreign Minister)
Well certainly there will be a time for further sanctions on figures in Syria. We have already imposed sanctions on 34 people and an institution, but we will discuss the possibility of imposing more if we find it necessary. We need to work closely with Turkey, which has more influence on Syria than the Europeans.
Reporter, Male #1
The Syrian army's tanks heavily opened fire with machineguns in the al-Rastan region in Homs province. Dissidents reported that the army is preparing to storm the city of Homs while Syrian military units carried out a raid campaign in the city. However, the most prominent new development is clashes in the city between supporters and opponents of the regime, which led to a large number of fatalities and major damages to the residents' homes. Various sources confirmed the news while opposition members believe the incident to be part of the Syrian security institutions' attempt to sow sectarian strife in Syria. The opposition's story has been conflicting with that of the government's since the uprising began with the government laying blame on terrorist groups and religious extremists.
Guest, Male #2 (Ahmad Siwan, Syrian writer, Damascus)
The situation in Homs, al-Bukamal, and Hama is indeed chaotic, and the basic causes are the acts of violence. These acts of violence must be stopped, which is the army's duty.
Reporter, Male #1
Contrary to the official story, the Syrian opposition speaks of sectarian groups and teenagers armed by the regime who were unleashed to confront the protestors. They are locally known as the "Shabeha." Some of these people's pictures were previously uploaded online. And some of them appeared in famous snapshots taken in Baida village near the city of Banias on the Syrian coast. There is another equally serious development near the border with Iraq. Reports say the Syrian army is besieging the city of al-Bukamal after dozens of its air intelligence members and soldiers defected. In other regions, the situation is just as chaotic. The army stormed Zabadani and reports say phone lines, the internet, and electricity are cut off. The army is raiding houses and arresting people. The capital Damascus witnessed a rally on Sunday in which tens of thousands participated. It took place in al-Umawiyyin Square in support of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.However, in the suburbs of the capital, the opposition's events continued. In the suburb of Qaboun, where previous violent confrontations led to the deaths of a number of its residents, women demonstrated chanting for freedom. In a gesture construed as part of civil society's resistance against any actions aimed at sowing strife, these women and girls from the Syrian coast expressed their solidarity with the residents of the region. In the town of Nahta in southern Syria's Daraa province, where protests were first sparked months ago, demonstrators took to the street chanting the same slogans they have been persistently chanting for weeks. Wael al-Hajar, BBC.
Rights group highlights 'alarming rate' of Palestinian children jailed for throwing stones [Al Jazeera, Qatar]
Presenter, Male #1
Three Palestinian children were severely injured after Jewish settlers beat them on the road leading to the village of Mukhmas, south of Ramallah. Israeli occupation forces also held dozens of children between the ages of 14 and 15 in the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood of occupied Jerusalem, before transferring them to an investigation center under the pretext that the children attacked a settler's car. In a related development, a report issued by the Israeli rights group B'Tselem revealed that Israeli occupation forces arrested nearly 800 underage Palestinians in the last six years. They were tried in military courts in the West Bank and charged with stone-throwing. Only one of these children was acquitted. The rest were convicted, including 34 children who are not even 12 years of age. Our correspondent Sharin Abu Aqla reports from Bil'in.
Reporter, Female #1
Mahmoud finally regained his freedom and returned to his village of Bil'in. He was taken away from here and put in the occupation's prison for five months. A sentence that might not seem long for some, but he remembers it as a cruel experience. Sixteen-year-old Mahmoud became a released prisoner, tried, convicted and imprisoned for throwing stones at occupation forces.
Guest, Male #2
They tied us up and put us under the rain so we can wait for the patrol to take us. We were taken at around six o'clock in the evening. Before that, patrols and soldiers would come up to hit us on our feet, asking us why we throw stones. We told them the handcuffs were too tight. He said, "You want to throw stones? Then you have to endure what's going to happen to you."
Reporter, Female #1
In prison, Mahmoud tasted the bitterness of solitary confinement and was not allowed any visits from his family for three months. His case is not exceptional and is part of Israeli policy, in which arresting Palestinian minors is a common practice that affects anyone with a stone in their hand. A report from the Israeli rights group B'Tselem documented the arrest of more than 830 underage Palestinians in the West Bank, excluding Jerusalem, in the last six years. In 94% of these cases, the children were imprisoned for up to 20 months. Only one child was acquitted.
Guest, Male #3 (Avichai Adraee, Israeli Army Spokesman)
The important thing is that Israel does not arrest these children for doing nothing. Subversive organizations are intensively using minors and children to carry out blatant vandalism.
Reporter, Female #1
Children in Israeli courts are not subject to Israeli law, or international law. They are arrested at night and are deprived of many rights, such as the right to consult a lawyer and the right to have one of their parents present during the investigation.
Guest, Male #4 (Karim Jibran, official in B'Tselem organization)
The children between the ages of 12 and 17 are tried in military courts and they are dealt with as if they were adults. They are given strong sentences, in many cases and they are denied visitation from their family. Violence is also used against them during their arrest.
Reporter, Female #1
The report shows that prison is the first option the occupation resorts to, instead of the last. They were only children provoked by injustice. They found themselves facing allegations, trials, and military judges. So, instead of reducing these children's anger, Israel might not realize that it is planting seeds in the future generation and that its acts are turning it into a generation that resists and rejects the occupation. Shirin Abu Aqla, al-Jazeera, from the village of Bil'in west of Ramallah.
HRW accuses Bahrain of systematic attacks on medical providers [Press TV, Iran]
Human Rights Watch has accused Bahraini of launching a campaign of arrests and intimidation against medical staff. It also blames government forces for attacking patients injured during anti-regime demonstrations over the past months. The group has issued a report detailing torture and prosecution of health workers, attacks on ambulances, the siege of hospitals, and torture and prosecution of wounded protestors. The report says regime forces have detained more than 70 medical professionals and have put about 50 of them on trial in a special military court.
Tunisia PM threatens crackdown on new wave of protests [Press TV, Iran]
Tunisia's transitional government has threatened a crackdown on the recent wave of demonstrations in the country. The Tunisian prime minister Beji Caid el Sebsi says the government will no longer tolerate any action that would lead to violence. His comments come after two people were killed in clashes between protestors and police in Sidi Bou Zid. The prime minister stressed the police have not used force against protestors and blames what he called extremists for the deaths.
French aid ship to reach Gaza by Tuesday [Press TV, Iran]
A Gaza-bound aid ship is expected to reach Gaza on Tuesday. The activists onboard the French vessel say the aim is to arrive to the besieged coastal strip by daybreak Tuesday. The French ship is the only remaining vessel from a larger international flotilla that was hoping to set sail from Greece weeks ago. But Greek authorities have blocked any vessels from reaching Gaza. The Israeli military also said it will stop any attempt to break Gaza's siege that was imposed in 2007.
Moscow refuses to recognize Libyan Transitional Council [Al-Alam, Iran]
Presenter, Male # 1
Russia announced its refusal to recognize the Libyan Transitional Council as the legitimate representative of the Libyan people while the US and a number of European countries have. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Moscow refuses to recognize the council as the Libyan people's legitimate representative. He said the recognition would constitute taking the side of one political force in a civil war. Lavrov added that his country is in contact with both Tripoli and Benghazi with the aim of taking a constructive position and sitting at the negotiation table. Washington and the Libya Contact Group countries recognized the council during their last meeting in Istanbul. On the ground, Libyan revolutionaries announced they took control of the eastern town of Brega. They said they expelled Gaddafi's forces after waging fierce battles that lasted for days. A spokesman for the revolutionaries confirmed that Gaddafi's battalions withdrew to Ras Lanuf, located 100 kilometers west of Brega. He said regions that witnessed clashes were filled with lands mines, which has led to the death of over ten fighters and the injury of nearly 300 others in the past few days. Joining us from Moscow to discuss the Libyan issue, and specifically the latest Russian position, is Dr. Viteslav Motosov, a former Russian diplomat. Dr. Motosov, how would you interpret Russia's strict position on the recognition of the Libyan Transitional Council?
Guest, Male # 2 (Dr. Viteslav Motosov, former Russian diplomat)
Russia's position has been clear from the beginning of the Libyan crisis. Russia is not playing the role of Muammar al-Gaddafi and the ruling Libyan regime's lawyer. However, at the same time, Russia does not recognize the temporary Transitional Council as the sole legitimate representative of the Libyan people. The main reason is the large number of political movements in Libya right now. Russia shares the African Union's position, which demands and insists on intensive political negotiations to find a political solution, a Libyan solution, without any foreign interference, neither political, nor military. Russia is against NATO's military strikes targeting Libya, and this is the main point. This was the initial difference between the Russian position and that of the US and the West. The second issue is recognizing the legitimacy of the temporary Transitional Council in Benghazi as the main force of the Libyan political scene. In order to solve the Libyan issue, there is an urgent need to support the position of the African Union. The African Union's position is based on contact with the Libyan government and the Transitional Council. Russia stands with regional forces, not foreign forces that are motivated by selfish reasons.
Yemeni army launches offensive against militants in Zinjibar [Future TV, Lebanon]
Presenter, Male # 1
The Yemeni army launched an assault on the southern town of Zinjibar in a bid to retake control of the town from extremists who have been controlling it for months. And, as protests against the regime continue, the British ambassador to Sanaa spoke of the necessity to include the different political forces in the country's organized political change.
Reporter, Female # 1
The exploding security situation in southern Yemen, and specifically in the city of Zinjibar, is leading the events in the country as battles between the army and gunmen intensify. This comes as a number of people were killed in protests demanding the formation of a transitional council to manage the country's affairs. In an attempt to retake control of the city captured by gunmen months ago, the army, backed by tribesmen, launched an assault on the town of Zinjibar amid reports of a number of injuries from both sides and fatalities from the extremists' side. Witnesses said dozens were injured in street battles after the army and tribesmen entered the city from the east and an official reported that dozens of extremists were killed since the attack on the city began two days ago. As the situation escalates in the south, protests against Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh continue for the sixth consecutive month. Witnesses said dozens were killed and others injured when forces loyal to President Saleh fired at an anti-regime protest. This comes as dozens of members of the Republican Guard and special operations forces announced their defection to the revolution in Sanaa's Taghyeer or Change Square. They also announced their support for the formation of a transitional council. The city of Taiz and a number of provinces witnessed unprecedented demonstrations. On the political front, British ambassador to Sanaa, Jonathan Wilks said the Yemeni president's unwillingness to discuss a power transfer will have negative political and economic consequences on the country, in addition to the effects on the security and humanitarian fronts. Wilks said Yemen needs to start the political transformation by transferring power from the president to his deputy. He confirmed the necessity to include the different political forces to deal with the current situation and cooperate for an organized political transformation.
Istanbul bombing targeted Israeli diplomat [IBA, Israel]
We open with today's revelations that the explosion that rocked the center of Istanbul in late May was aimed at Israeli diplomats in the city. Eight people were injured in the attack and according to a report published in an Italian newspaper, the terrorist bombing targeted Israeli Consul-General to Istanbul Moshe Kamhi. It was reportedly carried out by the Hexbollah terror group, not the Kurdish PKK terror group as originally suspected by officials.
IDF thwarts terrorist attack in Gaza Strip [IBA, Israel]
Air force jets thwarted an attack overnight by a terrorist squad in the southern Gaza Strip. It was identified as planning an ambush of IDF soldiers. Military soldiers reported that the mission was carried out in cooperation with the Shin Bet intelligence service and that the IDF will continue to act firmly against all attempted terror attacks against the country. The Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades military wing of the Hamas terror organization today identified two of the wounded as members. The retaliatory IDF strike comes in the wake of the recent escalation of Palestinian fired missiles into Israel from the Gaza Strip.
Israeli students protests soaring housing prices [IBA, Israel]
Here in Israel, ongoing protests against soaring housing prices continue to escalate with dozens of students and other young adults today joining the expanding tense where Tel Aviv's Rothschild Boulevard, where hundreds of protestors remain camped out. Similar initiatives have also been organized in Be'er Sheva as well as in Kvar Savvis outside Beit Berl Colelge. Twenty students came to the capital where they symbolically distributed sleeping bags to members of Knesset and tomorrow members of Hebrew University's student union and other Jerusalem based movements say that they will erect tents in downtown Zion Square.
What is the Islamists' view of the 'Arab Spring'? [ANB, UK]
Presenter, Male #1
"Sajalat" this evening will look into the position of Islamists in the Arab region on what has been named the "Arab Spring." We will discuss the issue with Dr. Omar Ashour, a lecturer at the University of Exeter in the United Kingdom. Welcome. Of course, talking about the Islamists at a time when a wave of events is occurring, we begin with the West's fear that the Islamists could take over the Arab revolutions. In addition, there is domestic fear that the Islamists will co-opt the Arab revolutions. The same situation is applicable in Tunisia, Egypt, Syria, Yemen, and Libya. Are we still in some sort of gray area, at the ambiguous state, where concerns are not compatible with reality since nothing is tangible at this moment? Or, do you have an idea of the role that Islamists are playing in these revolutions? Also, did Islamists essentially ride this wave or did they want these revolutions to occur, especially considering that some people believe that it is forbidden by Islamic law to revolt against the ruler?
Guest, Male #2 (Dr. Omar Ashour, Lecturer at the University of Exeter)
There are some things that we can be certain of and there are others that are still undetermined so far. The fact is that the Islamists will have a role and strong influence in Arab politics in the next phase, especially in countries that have overthrown their authoritarian regimes, such as Egypt and Tunisia.
Presenter, Male #1
You believe it will be a role, not the essential role?
Guest, Male #2
It will be a prominent role, and it could be the essential role. It is certain that the Muslim Brotherhood is popular and is probably the most organized organization among the existing political movements in Egypt. Tunisia's al-Nahda Movement has the same position. The post-Gaddafi Libya might also see a rising role of the Libyan Muslim Brotherhood, and perhaps the rise of other Islamic movements such as the Sufi movement in Libya. This is the first issue, but a question we could ask is whether or not they will they win in the elections.
Presenter, Male #1
Moving on to Yemen, a contested issue, both domestically and internationally. Former US Defense Secretary Robert Gates warned that chaos would prevail in the country and that al-Qaeda would control Yemen in the absence of a government. There have been attacks in Abyan and Zinjibar. The situation in Yemen is more understood on the ground than anywhere else. Does al-Qaeda pose a threat to Yemen or is it part of this struggle between the government and the opposition?
Guest, Male # 2
I don't think al-Qaeda has a great following or any influence in any country. The problem arises when there are two armed sides that can create some sort of chaos and have clashes. This is what is happening in Yemen. However, will al-Qaeda control Yemen? I don't think there is a possibility of that happening.
Presenter, Male # 1
Disregarding al-Qaeda, is Yemen also facing an Islamist battle?
Guest, Male # 2
The battle is between those who remain from Ali Abdullah Saleh's regime and the youth of the revolution. This is the great battle. There are some marginal groups, including of course, al-Qaeda.

This professor teaches accounting as a story
Joan Conrod earns 3M National Teaching Fellowship
Joan Conrod, a professor of accounting at Dalhousie University, is a 3M National Teaching Fellowship recipient for 2013. Maclean's On Campus is profiling all 10 in the coming weeks.
Who knew that "consolidation" could actually be a student's favourite course? But that's the Joan Conrod effect. Students of Conrod, a professor of accounting, have admitted to loving the technical nitty-gritty that is accounting. Leanne McCarvill, now a chartered accountant, once wrote in a note to Conrod: "Two years ago when I took my first course I was scared of you, and now I can't imagine not seeing you every week."
Conrod calls that one of her most memorable compliments. "I think one of the things I am most proud of is I teach really hard courses, really technical, and my students go on to harder things," she says. "My job is to make sure that not only do they understand the content, but they enjoy it."

Syrian army shells Latakia for third consecutive day [New TV, Lebanon]
Presenter, Male # 1
The Syrian army renewed its shelling of several neighborhoods in Latakia, stormed the Palestinian camp of al-Ramel, and the city of Hula in Homs province. Meanwhile, the Syrian Arab News Agency, SANA, denies that Syrian security forces used gunboats to shell Latakia.
Reporter, Female # 1
For the third consecutive day, the Syrian scene is of the shelling of Latakia neighborhoods, most notably al-Ramel al-Janoubi, considered one the poorest area in the city. In addition, the Palestinian al-Ramel camp, which is home to 10,000 refugees, and al-Sakanturi were shelled. The outcome was the killing of civilians, including a woman on board a bus carrying a family fleeing al-Sakanturi. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights confirmed the Syrian army renewed its shelling of several areas in the city and stormed al-Ramel camp. The observatory indicated that security forces sealed off the city's Ugarit Square and set up checkpoints, asking for identification cards and searching cars, and indicated that the number of detainees has exceeded 300 so far. The observatory confirmed that a convoy of tanks, armored vehicles, and personnel carriers entered the area of al-Hula in Homs province and began a wide-scale arrest campaign. And while rights organizations say the Syrian regime used gunships to shell Latakia, a high-ranking Syrian military official categorically denied any naval bombardment of the al-Ramel al-Janoubi neighborhood in the city. SANA confirmed that security forces are pursuing armed men terrorizing citizens and sabotaging private and public properties. It added that gunmen are using machine guns and explosives from behind barricades and are shooting from rooftops. It indicated that two members of a security unit were killed and 14 were injured while carrying out their duties.
Presenter, Male # 2
A Syrian military source denied claims of a naval bombardment of al-Ramel al-Janoubi neighborhood in Latakia as reported by media outlets inciting unrest. The source confirmed the news is completely baseless, adding that gunboats were on a routine patrol to protect the coast and prevent weapons' smuggling into the country, as it has occurred in other areas.
Guest, Male # 3
I am a resident of the Palestinian al-Ramel camp and I deny and condemn all these allegations. There are some armed men who are trying to kill soldiers.
Guest, Male # 5
They want freedom, so they set up checkpoints. They think this is an emirate. They have weapons and are shooting from rooftops. They are firing at the army.
Reporter, Female # 1
The Syrian Observatory announced that the army stormed a number of areas in Hama's countryside amid heavy gunfire and launched an arrest campaign. Syrian state-run TV broadcast videos of Hama, confirming that the city is regaining vitality and that official business has resumed. Politically, the Palestine Liberation Organization issued a statement denouncing the storming of al-Ramel camp in Latakia and the displacement of its residents. UNRWA announced that over 5,000 refugees fled the camp due to the shelling and demanded Damascus allow it to enter the camp. In addition, Jordanian Prime Minister Maaruf al-Bakhit called on his Syrian counterpart Adel Safar to immediately put an end to the violence in Syria and to begin implementing reforms and resort to dialogue.
A wave of deadly explosions rock Iraqi cities [Al Jazeera, Qatar]
Presenter, Male # 1
A number of explosions rocked many Iraqi cities today. From Baghdad, we are joined by journalist Abdallah Badran. Mr. Badran, what are the latest developments on the events?
Guest, Male # 2 (Abdallah Badran, Journalist in Baghdad)
Yes, today, the Iraqi capital Baghdad witnessed the injury of dozens of people, including security forces, when a car driven by a suicide bomber exploded in northern Baghdad. In addition, security forces were injured in southern Baghdad, in the Alilam neighborhood, after an explosive device was detonated. The Chairman of Iraq's Technical Education Commission, Mahmoud al-Mulla, escaped an assassination attempt. A booby-trapped vehicle blew up near his motorcade in Baghdad's al-Mansour district, west of Baghdad. These have the most powerful explosions seen in Iraq since the beginning of the year. In Wasit province, an explosive device and a booby-trapped car targeted the market in the heart of Kut, the center of the province. This led to the killing of 34 people and the injury of over 70. Al-Najaf also witnessed a twin car bomb attack, which targeted a checkpoint in the center of al-Najaf and led to the killing of six people and the injury of over 60. Karbala was also the victim of a car explosion that targeted the al-Hindiyah police headquarters in eastern Karbala. As for Ninewa province, one civilian was killed and two others were injured in a sticky bomb that was placed on an electric pole. Another civilian was killed in a sticky bomb in al-Fisaliya district. Babel witnessed an explosion in the northern town of Iskandariyah. The worse explosions after Wasit took place in Diyala province, where five people were killed and over 17 were injured, including three security forces, in a booby-trapped car that exploded in the town of Bani Sa'ad. There was also an armed attack on an Iraqi army checkpoint in northeastern Baqubah, in which four soldiers were killed. A number of police members were injured in a roadside bomb explosion that targeted their patrol in the town of Kanaan. Fourteen people, including security forces, were hit by twin explosions that targeted the passport office in northeastern Baqubah. One policeman was killed and another was injured in an attack on a checkpoint.
Presenter, Male # 1
So Mr. Abdallah, there was a large number of explosions and victims. You can barely catch your breath. How do you explain all these explosions seeing that it was calm at the beginning of Ramadan, and lasted until the middle of the month?
Guest, Male # 2
Yes, in truth, it's not unusual in light of the political and security situation in Iraq. The political coalitions have still not reached an agreement on the candidates for the interior, defense, and national security ministers, and the head of the intelligence agency. Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki is still the head of the government and the head of the intelligence agency, and the minister of defense, and the interior minister, and the minister of national security. For this reason, the political dispute is being reflected in the security situation. This is what Iraq is witnessing right now. There is a security agreement. The Americans are trying to keep their forces in Iraq or at least, the proposal is to maintain a force that would train Iraqi security forces. There are also regional pressures. Iran rejects the American presence in Iraq. There are a number of regional powers interfering in Iraq. The political coalitions say al-Maliki is responsible for the extension, or the departure, of Iraq's US forces. He says the coalitions want to blame him and hold him completely responsible while at the same time, he has rejected the candidates for the interior and defense ministries and the heads of security agencies.
Tunisians take to the streets to denounce the transitional government [Press TV, Iran]
In Tunisia, security forces have clashed with protestors outside the interior ministry. Several hundred protestors tried to gather in front of the interior ministry headquarters. Police used tear gas and truncheons to disperse them. Protestors have called on the caretaker government to step down. Tunisia has seen street protests and strikes on a regular basis since the ouster of former President Zine el Abindine Ben Ali. Many Tunisians are angry over the lack of political reforms. They are also demanding speedy and transparent trials of old regime elements.
Clashes erupt between Saleh's forces and the opposition in Taiz [Press TV, Iran]
In Yemen, clashes between forces loyal to embattled ruler Ali Abdullah Saleh and the opposition join by defected Republican Guards have erupted in the city of Taiz. Heavy gunfire and explosions have been heard near the international airport in the city. Witnesses say tanks and warplanes have also been seen in the area. The clashes come after government officials blamed tribal chief and business tycoon Hamid al-Ahmar of being behind the attack on the presidential palace back in June.
Kashmiris observe Indian Independence Day as black day [Press TV, Iran]
India has celebrated its 64th Independence Day, while people in the Indian administered Kashmir have observed a complete shut down as a sign of protest. They believe Indian control is forcibly imposed on their region. As India celebrates its 64th Independence Day from the British rule, Kashmir shuts down in protest. It has been over two decades that people in Indian-controlled Kashmir observe the day as black day marked by protest rallies and strike, as they believe India is forcibly controlling the region.
HRW: All sides to blame in Somalia crisis [BBC Arabic, UK]
Presenter, Female #1
According a report issued by Human Rights Watch, all sides of the Somali conflict have committed human rights violations, which are contributing to the country's famine crisis. The report added that the suffering of civilians is not only due to a famine but also due to a failure by all political sides to protect them.
Reporter, Female #2
It seems that all parties in the Somalia conflict are guilty. Inside this hospital in Mogadishu, there is proof that the civilians are the ones paying the price of hostility, regardless to who is winning the battle. They may have been injured by mortar shells fired at populated areas by al-Shabab Movement or in counter attacks launched by the transitional government. Government-backed forces have recaptured most areas of Mogadishu, following the withdrawal of al-Shabab from the capital. However, human rights groups are blaming Somali troops of failing to protect the residents and accused them of carrying out arbitrary detentions. Meanwhile, HRW is accusing Western countries of failing to mount pressure on the Somali authorities to put an end to the violations. Somalis have witnessed the worst wave of violence this year. Somali families are trying to escape the fighting, seeking refuge anywhere possible, even between the ruble of this Mogadishu Cathedral. In absence of security, activists are warning that none of these families are expected to bid loyalty to the government. The residents who fled the country are facing bigger problems. The road to this camp in Kenya is filled with dangerous activities, including rape and blackmail at the hands of some Kenyan police officers. Right activists are demanding greater international involvement in Somalia, where the residents are in as much need of peace as rain.
Mubarak trial postponed until September [BBC Arabic, UK]
Presenter, Female #1
At the Cairo Criminal Court, Chancellor Ahmed Rifaat has ordered that former President Hosni Mubarak's trial be merged with proceedings against his former interior minister, Habib el-Adly, into one case for the murder of protestors. The Chancellor also decided to end live television coverage of the court sessions. He adjourned the case until September 5. This decision was announced during a brief session following a long recess that lasted over an hour. The Cairo Criminal Court held its second session today for the trial of the former president and his two sons, Ala'a and Jamal, on charges of murder and power abuse. Chaos and altercations between lawyers erupted during the session. Elsewhere in Egypt, one person was killed and ten others detained during a predawn sweep operation by the Egyptian army and police in northern Sinai. The suspects are members of an Islamic group suspected of carrying out the attacks on the pipelines exporting gas to Israel and the attack on a police headquarters in the city of Arish at the end of last month.
Secret Libyan talks held in Tunisia as rebels claim control of Zawiya [Al-Alam, Iran]
Presenter, Female # 1
In an audio message on Libyan television, Libyan Colonel Muammar al-Gaddafi called on his supporters to get ready to cleanse the cities controlled by the revolutionaries, predicting a swift end to the opposition and NATO. This comes after the revolutionaries announced their control of the city of az-Zawiyah, situated near the capital Tripoli. In another development, a source told Reuters news agency that talks were held between representatives of the revolutionaries and al-Gaddafi in a hotel in southern Tunisia on Monday night.
Guest, Male # 1
Get ready! Arm yourselves! To the battlefield! For the sake of liberating Libya inch by inch from the traitors.
Reporter, Male # 2
Out of sight, Colonel al-Gaddafi sent his supporters an audio message through the official state television channel. In it, he urged them to prepare to fight and recapture cities controlled by the revolutionaries. Al-Gaddafi challenged the opposition and NATO, predicting their end to be near. He also responded to rumors of his readiness to leave the country. Libyan TV broadcast live images from Green Square in the heart of Tripoli, where hundreds of regime supporters gathered, holding photos of al-Gaddafi and waving green flags. Al-Gaddafi's speech came after the revolutionaries scored their most notable victory on the battlefronts by entering the city of az-Zawiyah, in the western part of the country. They celebrated their victory after gaining control of this strategic city, located only 50 kilometers from the capital Tripoli. Following fierce battles between the Libyan revolutionaries and forces loyal to al-Gaddafi, these revolutionaries managed to exert control over the city that has the only oil refinery in the region. In addition, it is located on the government's main supply route. In the first statement issued after entering az-Zawiyah, the revolutionaries said they are in the process of reinforcing their positions in the city in anticipation of advancing toward the capital. They confirmed their determination to cut off the supply line to Tunisia through the coastal road, which provides the capital with food and fuel. In the same context of dealing with these developments, al-Gaddafi forces sent large military reinforcements from Ras Jadeer on the Tunisian border. This was also confirmed by eyewitnesses. To deal with developments on the ground, there are talks of political action between the opposition and the government. A source who requested anonymity told Reuters news agency that talks were held between representatives of Libyan revolutionaries and al-Gaddafi in a hotel in southern Tunisia last Monday night. The source added the talks were held in a close-door session in a hotel on the Tunisian island of Djerba, near the border with Libya.
Israeli social movement leaders appoint own expert team [IBA, Israel]
Leaders of the social protest movement today presented their own team of experts who will work to prepare the movement's socio-economic recommendations for presentation to the government. The so-called alternative team will work independently of the panel headed by Professor Manuel Trachtenberg, set up by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for the same purpose. Sixty academics and public figures are volunteering their expertise to formulate a new socio-economic policy for the nation. Speaking at a Tel Aviv press conference this morning, the group vowed to present practical recommendations for changing policies, including options for funding.
Palestinians living in Israel join housing protest [IBA, Israel]
Arab-Israelis join the protest against the high cost of living on Saturday night, and now the community has staged a demonstration of its own in Jaffa to bring attention to their financial woes. Protestors called on the government to implement economic reform. They also decried what they said is discrimination in the housing market, saying that Jewish property owners often refuse to rent to Arabs.
Pakistan launches "Cheap Market" initiative to help poor families during Ramadan [Dubai TV, UAE]
Presenter, Female #1
Pakistanis are spending the holy month of Ramadan amid long hot summer days. Despite their limited resources, they have found ways to help ease the hardship of fasting. One way is to serve Ramadan buffets for the needy and poor. In addition, some popular markets have reduced their prices during Ramadan, with street vendors offering all sorts of affordable merchandise. Mahyub Khuder reports from Islamabad.
Reporter, Male #1
This band is playing religious melodies and poems. The objective is to inspire residents who are fasting to come out of their homes. They travel across neighborhood streets and alleys during the holy month of Ramadan, reflecting on ancient Ramadan tradition. They receive a warm welcome by the residents.
Guest, Male #2
These bands play music before Iftar. They play religious songs suitable for the month of Ramadan. They play tunes that help us overcome the difficulty of fasting.
Reporter, Male #1
The Bakura and spinach pies are part of this Iftar table. Bakura is a hot commodity during Ramadan, as people tend to buy it everyday, as if it were part of the fasting ritual. Sasta Bazaar, or the cheap market, is a Ramadan initiative launched by the regional government of Punjab, to support the needy and poor during the holy month of Ramadan.
Guest, Male #3
After wandering in this market, I found out that the prices of food products are too high for the poor to afford. I'm not only talking about the price of meat but also about the prices of fruits and vegetables.
Reporter, Male #1
This painful situation has prompted some of the financially able to serve street buffets. This buffet here is free for the needy and for travelers. It's a humanitarian gesture that has touched the hearts of the needy.
Guest, Male #4
I'm a worker. I come here everyday to eat Iftar. This has removed a huge burden off my chest.
Reporter, Male #1
Financial insolvency is not the only thing stealing the joy of Ramadan. Absence of security and the fear of violence are still fresh in the minds of Pakistanis, whose mosques are being placed under 24-hour protection. Amid the nightmare of security breaches and financial hardship, Pakistanis are spending the holy month of Ramadan with many unable to secure their Iftar meal. Mahyub Khuder, Dubai TV, Islamabad.

P.D. Tabler Movies
Perhaps the oddest Tarzan of them all, P. Dempsey Tabler wore an ill-fitting wig and was quite elderly in the serial The Son of Tarzan (1920) . As the title indicates, Tabler's King of the Jungle was not the leading role and his very much retired Tarzan was actually not far from how creator Edgar Rice Burrough's had described him. Often reported to be an opera singer, or even a boxer, Tabler had indeed appeared in light opera at the turn of the century, but not as a singer. By the mid-1910s, he was playing supporting roles for various Triangle companies and rather than a comeback, as has previously been reported, Tabler's brief stint as Tarzan was merely yet another acting assignment. His death was not reported in the New York Times until 1975, when an obituary appeared on behalf of the estate of Tarzan creator

The Patriot
A veteran of the Spanish-American War and a proud patriot, Bob Wiley (William S. Hart) finds himself swindled out of a fortune by a corrupt local politician. Hart's Wiley goes to Washington to complain but proves unsuccessful. Returning to the homestead, he finds his little son (Georgie, later George E. Stone) murdered and his heart fills with bitterness towards the country he once loved. Joining up with Mexican General Zapilla's forces, Wiley becomes a spy and misdirects the American forces into an ambush. The enormity of his betrayal slowly dawning on him, Wiley manages to save the local town from the Mexican usurpers, pledges allegiance to the flag and becomes once again a patriotic American. Only William S. Hart could get away with an overbaked plot like this, and only this early in his career. Most reviewers, however, bought the story. "It is probably the best thing Hart has done, and the entire production is of high quality," opined Louis Reeves Harrison in the influential Moving Picture World. A couple of names in the supporting cast stand out: Francis Carpenter, a blond child star very popular at the time, here playing a child who reminds the hero of what he has lost, and, further down the list, British-born character actor Percy Dempsey Tabler, who later played a rather unlikely Tarzan in the serial The Son of Tarzan (1920). ~ Hans J. Wollstein, Rovi

The Captive God
This early epic is set in 16th-century Mexico amidst a carefully researched and painstakingly detailed recreation of an East coast Aztec village. The people there are peaceful and when a Spanish child washes up half-drowned upon the shore, they adopt him. Years pass and as he was raised by the leader, he becomes the new leader. One day a war-like tribe attacks the village and captures the young man. They hold him captive in preparation for sacrifice to the gods. While incarcerated he falls in love with the rival chief's daughter. When she learns that he is to die, she sneaks to the coastal village to warn them. A terrifying battle ensues as they struggle to get their leader back, but in the end they succeed and peace is restored. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

The Son of Tarzan
Produced by poverty row company National Film Corp., the sequel to Tarzan of the Apes (1918) and The Return of Tarzan (1920) proved a troubled production throughout. Burgeoning Western star Jack Hoxie (then known as "Hart Hoxie") had been pegged to co-star as the King of the Jungle, but in one of film history's more notorious blunders, Hoxie's wife, Kalem star Marin Sais, convinced him to stick with Westerns and turn the role down. Instead, casting director Jean Temple chose P. Dempsey Tabler, a dignified Englishman who sorely lacked the brawny physique of his predecessor in the role, Elmo Lincoln (or, for that matter, Hoxie), but actually fit "Tarzan" creator Edgar Rice Burroughs' description of the English nobleman. Tabler, however, was not quite up to the strain of serial-making and was seriously injured during filming of a fist-fight with villain Eugene Burr. Lucille Rubey, the untalented wife of National president E.R. Frey, was at first forced forced upon the production as "Meriem," the leading lady, but director Harry J. Revier dismissed her in favor of Kathleen May. For unknown reasons, Miss May also failed to get the part which instead went to Manilla Martans. Little Gordon Griffith played Korak, The Son of Tarzan, as a boy but the real star of the 15 chapter serial proved to be Kamuela C. Searle, a native of Hawaii, as the young adult Korak. The plot followed Rice Burroughs' original story closely enough: Lord Greystoke's young son, Jack, is kidnapped in England by an evil Russian, Ivan Paulovitch (Burr), and carted off to Africa. With the assistance of a clever chimpanzee, Akut, Jack manages to escape into the jungle where he saves a little white girl, Meriem (Mae Giraci), from a gang of vicious Arabs. Jack (now known as Korak and played by Searle) and Meriem (Martans) grow up together in the jungle, love, of course, blossoming along the way. They are soon reunited with Korak's famous father and lady Greystoke (Karla Schramm, recreating the role she had played in Revenge of Tarzan earlier that year), but Meriem proves to be an heiress and the Arabs and Petrovitch soon reappear. The serial continued to be cursed by freak accidents, the most serious of which occurred when Searle was nearly trampled to death by an elephant. The young Hawaiian (known as Sam Searle to his friends) never recovered from his injuries, passing away at the age of 33, February 14, 1924. Tragically, Searle's stunt-double, Ray Thompson, later drowned in Alaska's Copper River during the epic filming of The Trail of '98, (1927). The Son of Tarzan was released between May of 1920 and February of 1921 to generally generous reviews. Songwriters Norman Stuckey and Osborne Tedman composed a ballad, Tarzan, My Jungle King, to be played during the screening of the serial. ~ Hans J. Wollstein, Rovi

My husband works in a nuclear plant where he goes through screening many times a day. He hated taking his boots off each time to keep from setting the alarm off. He looked for boots without steel toes that still looked good and was comfortable to wear on his motorcycle. This boot does all of the above. He wears these boots at least 5 or 6 days a week and they hold up great. He gets a new pair for Christmas each year.

sheet metal
I need to repair a section of the door skin on my 34 Hudson Terraplane Coupe and was wondering what type of sheet metal I should use for this patch. Thanks, Walt
You should measure the thickness of the existing door skin and match that. I think it will be 1020-19gauge CRS. I am guessing you have to fix the rust on the bottom of a door skin? If so, I have done something like that. If you would like to see pictures of how I did it, I would be glad to show you.
Yes, pictures would be greats!
Okay, but now I have to find the "how to post pics" thread. Is it the rust in the bottom of the door that you are trying to fix? If so, is it the inner structure too?
I have a 3 inch hole in the middle of the door and I may redo the bottom where there is some wave in the sheet metal caused by the previous owners repair. There is no inner door damage.
If you go to the Hudson Hot Rod Forum and to the post "Finally got the 34 blasted and back", there are some pictures posted. I will also be repairing the rear passenger quarter panel.
Here is a thread on posting photos.
http://www.classiccar.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9646&highlight=post+photos -
Well, I got a problem. The 34' pics were done before I went digital. I'm working on getting them on a disk. For now, I can show you the same thing on a 46' Hudson truck. Sorry about the picture quality, I'm not very good with the camera as you can see. Sorry about that. I also noticed that the rear fenders on your 34' look a bit thin where they mount to the body. The one I did was like that too. So, I remade about a three inch strip the length of the fender and replaced that part. It's really the only thing you can do in that situation because the metal there has gotten so thin you can't weld it right. Just have to re-do the whole length.
Without seeing your car I don't know if you have to remake the door bottoms or if they can be metal finishind. I am surprised that none of the inner structure rusted through. If the outside needed to be replaced like that I would think the inside would be almost as bad if not worse.
Anyhow, you got an awesome car there and it looks like you got good momentum to finish it. Wish the one I did was a coupe but it was a four door. I like your better.
Ahh, got the last two photos out of order, but you get the idea.LA (Small)_120006711148367.jpg640 x 429 - 43KM (Small)_120006122848367.jpg640 x 429 - 37KN (Small)_120006468948367.jpg640 x 429 - 41KMA (Small)_120005801048367.jpg640 x 429 - 34K -
Those pictures of a patch panel you have discribed as a 1946 Hudson Pick up? I didn't know Hudson made a four door truck. It doesn't look like any Hudson truck I have ever seen. Am I missing something?

Looks like the drivers door on regular pickup to me. -

Your right! It's not like any truck Hudson made. It's an extra cab truck, not a full sized extra door. More like a half door like the new trucks are today. In the third picture down you can see there is a front door, then a half door, then the back of the cab. Good eye, I think most people didn't notice. -
I knew it was not a regular pick up truck! How about some pictures from back a little more so we can see what it looks like.
Hi Roy! (Nice choice of name by the way) This truck was built for a friend of mine and he has asked me to not post any photos of the truck until he has taken it to a Hudson meet. He says it will be at the next San Simeon meet in California. I hope so. It is a BIG build and he has himself done sooo much to this truck that it's going to really be something special when it's done. I don't want to spoil the surprise of it's first meet. I only posted these photos because it might help someone else in fixing their rust problem and nobody can really see what the truck looks like. Believe me,....I would LOVE to post pics of it! It's a *****en truck!

Obamacare squeezing the medical device industry?

Former Sen. Evan Bayh weighs in

Auto-advanceThis transcript is automatically generated
Okay when Democrats pass Health Care Reform they claimed it would save money and create jobs.
Now we're seeing exactly the opposite the new tax buried inside.
So called obamacare is costing -- this is big money.
And the only way to make up the difference.
Layoffs joining us now Fox News contributor and former democratic Indiana senator mr.
Evan -- thank you senator.
So blunt -- can -- and -- a couple of big names we have Welch -- we have cooked medical we have Zimmer Holdings.
These are companies who are -- deciding not to hire people open plants or actually.
Lay off people because of this medical device tax you tell us how much money are we talking.
Well this tax group will go into effect January 1 and the problem with that is it's not a tax on how much a company makes.
It's a tax on sales so you can actually be a non profitable company and still get hit with this tax and it's on top of what is already the highest corporate tax in the world 35%.
Many states have their own corporate tax and so it's.
It's you know harming the company's bottom line which leads to.
Lay offs or non in the case of -- they're not gonna open new facilities or moving production overseas it also takes many in the medical innovation for new devices new cures so.
That's why there's an effort afoot to do something about this and and a dysfunctional Washington.
I'm actually up modestly.
Hopeful that Democrats or Republicans work together on this the president's made job creation job number one I think when he finds out about this -- wanna do something about it too.
Well let's see let's take a look at that breakdown for the typical metal medical device company.
Percent tax on revenues winds up averaging about ten to 15% tax on profits.
Also combine that with 35%.
Corporate state corporate taxes.
They wind up pay and 50% tax rate in most jurisdictions.
So people you know senator.
You hear all it's only 2.3 percent that's just a little bit.
That's not just a little bit.
-- it's 2.3 percent of sales -- so if you're profit margins you know 10%.
It's a lot bigger percentage of your profits and that's on top of the other taxes you mentioned.
Notice tax deductible so that loses -- a little bit but when you add it all up 50% burden.
That's really tough to compete doing that so that means you know fewer jobs.
Moving jobs overseas wasn't -- -- that's why we need to do something about this and I.
I was talking to one of the leading Democrats in the senate last night he said there are a lot of Democrats who want to do something about this.
If we can find a way to offset the cost.
And that's why I think the president and others will get together.
You know as we approach the fiscal cliff in the context of you know -- to tax reform here and wanna -- and wanna do something about this Saturday.
-- do -- risk.
Losing net innovation that you point out we -- these companies say you know it's so expensive to do business here.
-- we can do -- in Mexico or Singapore somewhere overseas.
Well it's actually happening and part of the approval process is to blame for that as well.
It takes so long that our country if you get a different device approved first -- say in Germany.
And you -- you begin to solve that market you're gonna produce it near where you're beginning to -- -- so rather than being based you know somewhere and in our country Indiana for example or Minnesota Massachusetts other states.
They'll open a facility in Germany and export those products from Europe and the United States instead -- the way it is today.
This is one of the few industries where we make things here right and export them abroad so we don't want to harm our global competitiveness absolutely.
And senator a moment ago you were talking about how you are hopeful that members of your Democratic Party.
Before we hit the fiscal cliff will change their mind remember it was members -- your party that drew up completely the obamacare legislation so.
If you're gonna blame somebody poured -- them.
Well Steve it's if a fair point that it's in the law.
Now you know there are a lot of good things and -- other some bad things in law I'm convinced that people didn't really understand what the impact of this was going to be.
Now that that's out there I think there will be a willingness to know not point blame but instead say OK what imperfect we need to fix it out.
And let's figure out what we're gonna do -- we don't cost ourselves jobs we don't want armor competitiveness or -- Hopefully that's something Democrats Republicans can agree on.
I'm confident the president will have to put your right and -- SN thirty billion dollars that taxes -- estimated cost American companies satellite apparently -- senator Evan -- thank you sir.
Thank you.

It was pure curiosity that led to choosing their newest release, Omega, to once again become acquainted with this understated Finnish four piece powerhouse after listening to and reviewing Azaghal's last album, Luciferin Valo. In contrast to …Valo which was simply solid to my ear, Omega is strikingly more varied, risky, and uncompromising overall. With little doubt, it's apparent the band is making a very loud, definitive statement on their newest effort, resulting in a disc that's difficult to brush off.
There are no worries as to whether or not the black metal flame burns brightly on this album, but lighter moments with keyboard embellishments, clean vocals, and a general increased emphasis on melody and cohesive riffing really dominates events this time around. The fleshing-out of these more expansive elements really adds a new side to Azaghal, as all of the musicians fall comfortably into slower grooves very smoothly, and they show restraint in letting nuances and small note deviations breathe and broaden the soundscapes beyond clinical black metal. I'm once again reminded how influential Immortal has been, as much of Omega reminds me of Damned In Black and Blizzard Beasts.
Even though a few of these elements might frighten some people off in theory, Omega is first and foremost a blistering blast assault led by Varjoherra's savage vocal delivery and supported by some of the fastest, most creatively cold riffs I've heard this year. As soon as the seven-minute whiplash "Taman Maailman Prinssi" comes out of the gates kicking and flailing, it's clear Azaghal have upped the ante, as a nearly death metal belch erupts beneath an up-tempo old school lurch before accelerating back to more high speed blackness followed by a very brief Candlemass downshift @ 5:02 or so. "Pirun Verta" is merciless with the riff attack at first, but soon shifts into a slower groove designed to snap necks with headbanging, and brings forth raspy clean vocals with great success.
"Quetzalcoatl" begins with one hell of a huge stomping riff and works it for all it's worth leading into a cinematic, epic break and calm keys, but it's not long before a reworked blasting version of that same thundering initial rhythm returns to heat things up to the boiling point. "Tuhkaan Kirjoitettu" also begins with a killer slow groove and throws in tasteful blasts along the way, but never fully deviates from the more sullen, somber mood it begins with, standing out due to the strangely beautiful cold riffs which end suddenly. On the other side, if you want a pure hateful blast as dynamic and unfriendly as you can get, then prepare to be battered by closing scorcher "Kaikkinakevan Silman Alla", a relentless conclusion that should leave just about any black metal fan exhausted and satisfied.
There really isn't a weak track to be heard among these nine sometimes barbarically aggressive tunes, and it helps in no small way that the production on Omega is of very high quality, with a mix that sounds neither overly processed nor obnoxiously raw. This is an extremely well-structured, unexpected black gem of an album that I HIGHLY recommend to fans of blazingly fast, yet calculated music of this nature. I was really blown away by the depth and tenacity of the material performed here, and this review is much too short to fully interpret what a great work of art this turned out to be. In a word: Badass.

Shaker Heights Patch is celebrating the 100 years of Shaker Heights history by creating an online scrapbook. Each day for 100 days, we'll feature a photograph that helps tell the story of Shaker Heights.
Today's photo features the Fairmount Theatre on Warrensville Center Road and Fairmount Boulevard. The theater was next to John Carroll University, but it was located in Shaker Heights according to the county property records.The cinema closed and a Huntington Bank branch now occupies the space.
There's not much information about this theater, so we're asking readers to help us out. The postcard comes from the late 40s or early 50s. The movie on the marquee, "You Gotta Stay Happy," was released in 1948. If you beat the summer heat by ducking into the Fairmount Theatre, tell us in the comments.
You can join our celebration of Shaker Heights history. Share your memories in the comments. Or upload your photos and we'll feature them in this scrapbook. Follow #ShakerCentennial on Twitter.

Offshore Angler™ Tapered Gaffs
- Ultra-lightweight
- Faster and more accurate gaffing
- Manuevers with ease
- Anodized aluminum construction
Rated 2.5 out of 5 by 2
Rated 4 out of 5 by proline33wa Worked Well on Albacore
I bought the 6' gaff for use when we couldn't keep up with netting the tuna. I gaffed five tuna in a row that ranged between 22 lbs and 28 lbs and it worked fine. The sharp point sliced right through them. I think it's wise to lift straight up to avoid too much bending stress on the shaft, but it feels strong in your hands and the hook seems securely mounted in the tapered end.

Chickahominy YMCA offering meals to needy students
Citizen Staff Reports 07/10/12
To ensure that children in the Greater Richmond and Petersburg areas have access to food year-round, the Chickahominy Family YMCA in Sandston is offering free healthy meals and snacks through its summer food program, thanks to a $5,000 grant funded by the Walmart Foundation. The Y has partnered with the Walmart Foundation to address child hunger in communities, with a focus on increasing participation in the USDA's Summer Food Service Program (SFSP), which provides free meals to children aged 18 and under while school is out. According to the Food Research and Action Center, only one in seven children who depend on free or reduced-cost meals during the school year received meals though the SFSP last summer. At the Chickahominy Family YMCA, children will receive two meals and a snack each day. This summer, more than 300 Ys nationwide will offer summer food programs with a collective goal to serve five million healthy meals and snacks to 100,000 children. Nationally, the Y is a partner in the Walmart Foundation's 2012 Summer Giving Campaign, which has committed more than $20 million in grants to expand nutrition, learning and employment programs for elementary, middle and high school students in more than 350 communities. The Walmart Foundation contributed a $5 million grant to YMCA of the USA (Y-USA) to address child hunger. Y-USA, in turn, passes the funding along in the form of grants to participating YMCAs. |

Magic, on ice
Disney's Frozen shines as an instant classic
Disney has spent the past few years in search of that certain something; that 'Disney Magic.' It's been a slow process. From The Princess and the Frog to Tangled to Wreck-it Ralph, the studio took slow steps, welcoming its princesses and fairy tales and musical numbers back into the fold. Every film was an improvement on the last, but none of them had anywhere near the charm or lasting appeal of the early '90s highs of the "Disney Renaissance."
Frozen, by far, is the House of Mouse's best attempt at a new Little Mermaid. > Read more.
