I purchased the WD Book with Smartware yesterday and I am returning it to the store today. While it is easy to install the "Smartware" program is horrible. There is no way to verify the data is truly being stored, it is a resource hog, and has numerous conflicts with NOD32 Antivirus.
I had been under the impression that Western Digital produced quality products yet after this experience I will no longer buy or use any Western Digital product and I will advise any one thinking of purchasing any of there products not to.

E.coli patients may need kidney transplants
Posted By Matt Ryan On June 12, 2011 @ 7:27 pm In Medical Tyranny,Old Infowars Posts Style | Comments Disabled

"Around 100 patients have suffered such terrible kidney damage that they will require a transplant or have to undergo dialysis for the rest of their lives," he told the Bild am Sonntag newspaper.
The aggressive enterohaemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) bacteria can cause haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS), a potentially fatal kidney complaint. The killer bug has claimed at least 33 lives and has left some 3,000 people ill across 14 countries.
Lauterbach warned that further epidemics could not be ruled out. "EHEC pathogens are on the rise throughout the world. And Germany will also see repeated EHEC outbreaks in the future."

Missoni, the Italian fashion brand best known for prints that look like electrocardiograms, is set to open a new Hotel Missoni on the shores of the Persian Gulf at the end of the month. It will be glamorous, colorful, and stuffed to the brim with pieces from the Missoni Home collection. But there's something about its location that gives us pause.
Kuwait isn't known for being a particularly dangerous country — in fact it has a lower crime rate than we do in the States — but that hasn't stopped the US State Department from cautioning travelers to Kuwait to "exercise a high level of security awareness … as terrorists have specifically targeted hotel chains perceived as Western along with a variety of Western housing facilities." That might just be because Kuwait is in close proximity to a few places we're sort of at war with. The country shares a border with Iraq and is across the Persian Gulf from Iran.
Still, we can't imagine that Missoni would make as huge an investment as it did for the new hotel if its safety hadn't been vetted. WWD describes the place as a veritable palace.
"… the hotel is housed in a new building shaped as a treble clef and is part of the Symphony Center, an adjacent luxury shopping emporium that also houses apartments and offices. The hotel comprises 169 rooms, including 63 suites, over 18 floors; three restaurants; a ballroom; a fitness area-cum-spa offering Middle Eastern treatments; a pool tiled with a mosaic of Missoni's staple colorful stripes, and a cactus and palm garden."
And as much as we love a good cactus and palm garden, we might just save our pennies for the upcoming Target/Missoni collaboration instead of a trip to the new hotel.

My first experience with fasting saved me a hospital admittance. It started with a common urinary tract infection. I didnt want to take the usual 'cure' of pills that the doctor perscribed, but I also didnt know what else to do, so I ignored it. I was only in my early twenties by the way. After a couple of days the infection spread up into my kidneys. Here I am, still trying to ignore this so I go to work as a bartender. The pain got so bad that I couldnt even stand up straight but had to hunch over. This is when my boss noticed something was wrong and had to carry me home after begging him not to take me to the hospital. That night I desperately flipped through all of my natural health books (duh, I should of done this days before), and came across a chapter on fasting for cure. I fasted on plain vegetable broth and 100% cranberry juice for the next 3 days and cured myself! What was amazing was after walking around in pain for a week, the pain was gone after the first day of fasting. I have other accounts of unbearable pain dissapearing after only 1 day of fasting. I have a stubborn swollen inguinal lymph node that periodically becomes so painful that it causes me to limp. One day of fasting gets rid of the pain. I am experimenting with longer water fasts to cure this swollen lymph node for good.

Re: So if the Axis won WWII, the Federation would have never existed?
If the guy himself didn't give a damn about who he was, in terms of practical actions, why should anybody else?
And odd ideas about leadership are part and parcel of many ideologies, including communism. There's nothing about the theories of Marx that would directly support much less require the use of representative democracy in ruling, and indeed most communist systems have managed quite well with dictators in the lead. Also, again, many would be far more comfortable with a dictatorial system than with one that shuns conventional methods of leadership altogether; the Nazis would have been the conventional alternative, and thus potentially the more appealing to most democracies.

Despite the touted secrecy of the Navy SEAL assassination of Osama bin Laden, the White House is apparently collaborating with a Hollywood production company on a movie documenting the incident. The film's production is being undertaken by the team behind the 2009 Best Picture Oscar winner The Hurt Locker. The project is provoking Chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee Peter King (R.-N.Y., pictured) to call for a Pentagon investigation into the collaboration. There are a series of concerns raised by the production. The Blaze writes, "The Pentagon confirmed it's giving mission information to the film's screenwriter Mark Boal and director Kathryn Bigelow."
"This film project is only in the script development phase, and DoD is providing assistance with script research, which is something we commonly do for established filmmakers," Pentagon spokesman Col. Dave Lapan said. "Until there is a script to review, and a request for equipment or other DoD support, there is no formal agreement for DoD support."

I've always loved stand up comedy, and when I dipped my toes in doing it myself I found how incredible a feeling it is to make others laugh. I haven't done it in about 2-3 months now, however, and now I'm itching to get back into it. It helps my confidence as well whenever I do it.

Alaska's controversial HAARP facility closed — will it come back online?
Posted By Adan On July 22, 2013 @ 11:02 am In Global Crisis,Old Infowars Posts Style | Comments Disabled
Ben Anderson
Alaska Dispatch
July 22, 2013
But if there are no major earthquakes or bizarre global weather events in the coming weeks or months, the folks at HAARP may have some explaining to do — the facility has apparently been shuttered since June, the power turned off as HAARP waits for a hoped-for change in contractors to operate the facility.
HAARP is a government-owned facility, primarily overseen by the U.S. Air Force, though the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) funds a number of grant projects there. The project was previously managed by the Air Force Research Laboratory at Hanscom Air Force Base in Massachusetts, but is currently overseen by a research unit at Kirtland Air Force Base in Albuquerque, N.M. after the Hanscom unit was moved in 2011.

�I can inject a script that will display anything I want in the page when the user clicks the 'refresh' link," he said via instant message. "Combining this with the design flaw, an attacker can render in the browser whatever he wants with whatever URL he wants in the address bar."�
While no attacks have yet been reported using this flaw, it affects both Vista and Windows XP. Given that IE7 is now a critical update pushed via automatic updates, hopefully MS will be on the ball and repair the flaw soon. It's unlikely they will let it sit for long, with Firefox continuing to creep on their territory and already having skipped a patch cycle.

Few ballerinas are as adventurous as New York City Ballet's Wendy Whelan. "I like to be the paint and the brush," she says, "but just not the person holding the brush." At the Guggenheim's Works & Process this weekend, Whelan discussed and performed excerpts of "Restless Creature," a suite of duets created collaboratively with contemporary dancer-choreographers Kyle Abraham, Joshua Beamish, Brian Brooks and Alejandro Cerrudo.
This interview first appeared in the April 17 Pointe e-newsletter. To sign up for the newsletter, click here.
The amount of thought that goes into dancers' daily habits seems nuts. But we can't help it: The stakes are high when everything from what you snack on to how you clip your toenails affects your performance. In Pointe's April/May issue, we went inside the routines of six dancers to find out their secret obsessions.
Few topics in the dance world are more fraught than motherhood. No, we're not talking about the dragon mothers on "Dance Moms," but the challenges of balancing pregnancy and parenting with the physical demands of dance. Not only do artists struggle when pregnancy changes their dancer bodies, but the stress and schedule of performing and touring aren't always compatible with parenthood.
It seems like the catwalk has become a sort of second stage for dancers these days. The latest ballerinas moonlighting as runway models are Miami City Ballet's Callie Manning, Suzanne Limbrunner and Adriana Pierce. The three dancers made their fashion debut last Friday while showcasing Palm Beach County-based designer Robin Fleming's DUCHESA couture collection for Miami Fashion Week.
Last fall, American dancer Eva Mohn joined Sweden's eclectic Cullberg Ballet. The company, founded in 1967 as part of Sweden's National Touring Theatre, showcases zany choreography and distinctive stage personalities. Here, Mohn shares her experience with pointemagazine.com.
Want to improve your turnout? Of course you do. (What ballet dancer wouldn't?) Check out this excellent clip of movement guru Irene Dowd explaining two exercises that can help you increase your outward rotation. Dowd, a longtime faculty member at Juilliard and author of the iconic kinesiology book, Taking Root to Fly, uses imagery and anatomical concepts to help dancers find more stability and ease of movement.
Few things in life are more beautiful than Alessandra Ferri. Personally, I could watch old videos of her for hours on end. And it turns out I'm not the only one still in love six years after her retirement: This Friday, the Italian International Dance Festival will present the former prima with the IIDF A Heart For Art Extraordinary Dancer Award at the festival's gala performance in New York City.
Audition season is one of the most grueling parts of a dancer's year. But don't let cattle call burnout keep you from getting into the company of your dreams. To offer a dose of inspiration, Pointe peeked inside an open call for Boston Ballet and picked artistic director Mikko Nissinen's brain for his best audition advice. In the feature, he gives the best defense of falling I've ever heard: It just means he's sure to notice you. He also offered this tip:
Some mornings, the only thing I want to eat is an ice cream sundae. (Okay, maybe most mornings.) A healthier option? A yogurt parfait. With some maple syrup and crunchy granola, this recipe from Pointe's favorite dancer-chef, Shelby Elsbree, hits the spot no matter how badly my sweet tooth is acting up.
Greek Yogurt & Granola Parfait:
1 cup of Greek yogurt
1/2 cup of apple sauce
1/3 cup of granola
1 to 2 tablespoons of maple syrup

Hi Cathrine, its a beautiful flower , though i think this could have been done better. First of the composition, right now its a little two central i would have preferred a more closer approach basically fill up the frame with just the flower in it, this would allow for one more detail to show up in the flower and make it more prominent in the image, secondly i would go lower down to face the flower at eye level, this would also get rid of the stick (that runs in from the left hand side of the frame and disappears behind the flower) as a distraction from the central theme of your image . It also looks like the focus was on the leaves since they seem to be nice and sharp with more detail than the flower itself.
Nominating Constructive Critique
Hi Catherine, Prabh is right in his critique. When photographing flowers you often need to do a bit of weeding and removing of grass and dead debris from the shot prior to taking the shot. It's also handy to have a dustbin bag handy for you to kneel or lay on so that you can get down to the plants level. If your lens won't let you close to the plant it can always be cropped later,
I have uploaded a mod which attempts to explain what Prabh and myself are saying.... it's only a quick mod so the quality of the cloning is not wonderful.
Nominating Constructive Critique
Hi catherinemary and welcome to Epz.
Prabh's advice is sound but realistically, you took this using a mobile phone so, bearing that in mind, it hasn't turned out at all badly.
It's probably true to say that mobile phone cameras, these days, are on a par with cheap compacts, so there's no reason why, with a little practice, you shouldn't be able to prioduce some pretty good images.
Good luck!
Nominating Constructive Critique
Thank you all so much, I will try to use all your advice! Although I must point out that at 78 its somewhat hard to get down low, much less lay flat . This flower was on a bank by roadside and coz it was early Dec I cldnt resist a shot. My phone is 8megap and I do have a camera but its a quite sweet digital inexpensive one. Still not mastered all its functions lol.However I do welcome all comments and am grateful to you all for your time. I find it hard to learn with a book, so its hit and miss. Have thought about a camera club, but they are a bit sniffy to people like me. Thanks again folks.x

Welcome to ePhotozine!
It looks like your phone has an excellent camera as this is in perfect focus and well exposed, too. If you have access to editing software, you could crop it a little to concentrate more on the flower and less on the surrounding leaves.
Phones don't give you a lot of control over how the photo is taken so the key skills are finding interesting subjects that the camera does well at, and composing the scene to show it off at its best. And, of course, those skills are valuable with any kind of camera. Phones aren't so good for action shots as there tends to be quite a long delay between pressing the button and the picture being taken. So you'll probably want to stick to things that aren't moving much; it looks like your phone handles close-ups well, and that gives you a huge range of potential subjects.
ePhotozine has a page of phone camera tips and I like this article on composition.
I look forward to seeing more!

This is a perfectly good image showing how good modern phones can be for general photography. Ideally you needed rather more flower and rather less leaves. Don't know if the phone would focus that close but there is a rule - fill the frame. Rules are there to be broken, but I think it would work here.

A primrose flowering in December (even for Cornwalls warm climate) is unusual to see...well spotted! The colours are nice and vivid and yes you could have spent time clearing any inperfections around it (twigs etc) but I think its a good natural shot that shows a pretty plant off as nature intended it...well done,by the way the Samsung Galaxy S2 has a facility to crop your images on the phone that works well,ok it is only a phone but it has a good quality camera and i think your photo proves this,keep up the good work.

In a recent interview with radio host Nikki Z, Mr Vegas in response to a question said that if he were to get into the boxing ring with anyone, it would be 'Mr Cross and Angry' himself.
The entertainer then followed up with a video post on Instagram, where he was willing to put US$50,000 on the table, in the hopes that Bounty Killer would accept the challenge.
"I'm giving up the first money, $50k US. Bounty Killer and Mr Vegas in the arena boxing, Bounty Killer people get at me," he said in the video.
However, the 'Warlord' did not wait for his people to respond as he lashed out at Vegas himself via social networking site Twitter.
"Tell Gaygas go match up wid him man dem at the gym, mi nuh match up wid man or go inna ring wid man," he tweeted.
When The STAR contacted Mr Vegas to get a response to Bounty's tweet, the entertainer said the world shouldn't make much of it. "I was asked a question and I answered it. I called his name because a him a the General," he said. He also went on to say that anyone else would be no competition for him. "If mi did say Matterhorn or anybody else people would've laughed and say how mi a fight likkle girls."
The deejay is making light of Killer's response, stating that he was the one who called his (Bounty Killers) name first, thus the harsh words were somewhat expected. "Him a the general innu so what you expect him to say," he explained.
He also told The STAR that the entire name-calling issue doesn't point to anything building between the two entertainers, and maintains that it was said as a joke and isn't to be taken seriously.
"A me wrong fi call him name innu, but nothing nah gwaan man, mi just call him name because mi nuh see nobody else weh woulda match the challenge," Mr Vegas said.

The University of Maine student body elected a new president and vice president to lead University of Maine Student Government, Inc. for the upcoming 2012-13 fiscal year. They also voted down a recommendation to raise the student activity fee from $45 to $50 per semester.
Third-year biology student Sen. Kimberly Dao received 38.7 percent of the vote to take majority in the presidential race, winning a close, three-way battle between fourth-year new media student Chris Protzmann and third-year entrepreneurial and law student Lucas Kronlund, who received 29.9 percent and 26 percent of the vote, respectively. Write-in candidates accounted for 5.2 percent of the vote.
Fourth-year political science student and current vice president Sam Helmke received 93.2 percent of the vote to capture an unopposed race for vice president. The other 6.8 percent of the votes accounted for write-ins.
In addition to the two officer elections, the ballot included a measure that asked students if they were in favor of approving a recommendation to raise the student activity fee. Despite the university's low rate — which is nearly half the average of many other schools — the referendum was not passed, receiving 66.1 percent in disfavor of the question. Even if the vote had been in approval of accepting the recommendation, one-third of the student body would have needed to participate in the election, which wasn't the case — only about one-fourth participated.
During Tuesday's General Student Senate meeting, the Renewable Energy Club received preliminary recognition. A new Sergeant at Arms and Representative to the Graduate Student Senate were elected in the GSS' 29th and final meeting of the body's 33rd session in the Memorial Union's Bangor Room Oct. 23.
In addition, each candidate that was up for election discussed his or her future platform plans one last time before Thursday's elections.
Renewable Energy Club receives preliminary recognition
The Renewable Energy Club, which "focuses on the positive externalities that renewable energy has to offer by exploring all aspects of the field," was granted preliminary recognition by the GSS. The club's plan is as follows: "Instead of focusing on a single particular issue within the renewable energy industry — engineering, physics, policy, etc. — this club will focus on all of the positive externalities that renewable energy can bring to a community."
The club will focus on seminars, bringing in speakers and attending conventions. The group was mostly created to raise awareness, not create products. Student Organizations Committee's vote was 3-0-1 ought to pass before the GSS' approval.
New Representative to the Graduate Senate, Sergeant at Arms elected
In the election for a new Representative to the Graduate Senate, Sen. Norwood won unanimously in an unopposed run after fourth-year wildlife ecology student Josh Stanhope's name was scratched.
Fellow senators elected third-year business management student Sen. William Smith as the new Sergeant at Arms. Four senators ran for the position: Sen. Smith, second-year finance and economics student Sen. Justin Conant, first-year political science student Sen. Megan Fowler and second-year political science and economics student Sen. Caleb Shortt. Sen. Conant was not present for speeches or voting.
Club presentations
The Cycling Club, National Student Speech Language Hearing Association, Women's Ultimate Frisbee and Formula SAE all presented to the GSS.
Club president Forest Wentworth spoke on behalf of the Cycling Club, presenting feedback from the organization's participation in Mount Washington's Bretton Woods Winter Mountain Bike Championship Series. Individuals within the club took fifth and sixth in the professional series and first in the amateur series.
Club president Heidi Crouse spoke on behalf of NSSLHA, presenting feedback from the organization's participation in a Picture Exchange Communication System training workshop in Portland. According to Crouse, four group members made the trip and about 40 people took part in the workshop.
"The actual training stepped us through six different phases," Crouse said. "We plan on going into group homes to provide reminders for workers on how training works."
Club president Michael St. Pierre, vice president Eric Burbank and treasurer Mitchell Lumber spoke on behalf of Formula SAE, thanking the body for funding a trip from last May to Michigan International Speedway to compete in a Formula SAE competition. According to Burbank, the club placed 84th of 120 overall as a first-year rookie team. They also had the lightest car ever recorded in competition history.
Club president Kacy Thibodeau-Harvey and vice president Kiley Thibodeau-Harvey spoke on behalf of the Women's Ultimate Frisbee Team, thanking the body for funding a trip to compete out of state. According to Thibodeau-Harvey, they took 20 girls for the first time ever. It was the largest turnout in club history.
"We won one game on Saturday and lost on Sunday," Thibodeau-Harvey said. "It was a great opportunity to experience [Frisbee] at the college level."
Executive Reports
Helmke said he is trying to get more prominent speakers to address the GSS during meetings. The new director of marketing will be coming Tuesday.
Vice President of Financial Affairs Raymond Updyke explained to the GSS that around $3,000 would be used to pay use tax, which is something that's usually paid for every three years. Also, Updyke stressed for senators to promote the raising of the activity fee. Allocations under $1,000 included $932 to Men's Lacrosse for their fall tournament in Vermont and $750 to the Tennis Club for tennis court fees.
VPSO Sarah Porter announced that UMSG, Inc.'s website www.umainesg.com has been streamlined, now listing all current clubs on campus along with current officers and brief bios.
Minor hiccups in election voting this year
While election voting on FirstClass has been a problem in past elections, there were minimal issues, according to Fair Elections and Practices Committee Chairman Shane Dorval.
"No formal complaints have been received by the FEPC, however, there were some general complaints about the issue of the FirstClass Voting systems being down for a short period of time at the beginning of the voting period," Dorval wrote in an email. "The problem was a small issue within the FirstClass Voting application, which was solved within 20 minutes of being discovered. Balloting was extended an extra hour and a half to make up for lost time."
About 25 percent of the student body voted, which has been the average for the last three years, according to Dorval. And, as always, there were a number of familiar write-in votes.
"Quite a few write-in votes were received for UMaine Bro, Mickey Mouse, Barack Obama and Mitt Romney," Dorval wrote in an email. "Other interesting write-ins were: 'Alehandro, Lord of the Flame,' 'E=MC Vagina,' 'Rapscallion McGee,' 'Horace T. Burglecut,' 'Debbie the Lunch Lady,' 'Fergie's Unborn Baby' and 'Steve Holt!'
The Maine Campus has been notified of other write-ins, including Dave Cloutier and Fred Armisen.

It saddens me that nobody involved with the show became movie stars. James Marsters has only done TV guest spots and Dragonball. Angel (can't spell his last name) and Alyson Hannigan are TV regulars on modestly successful TV shows.
[...]I really expected Hannigan to blossom into a beloved movie actress. I was disappointed that after her brief time in the spotlight in the "American Pie" series, all she did was (ugh) "Date Movie".
I can't believe Sarah Michelle Gellar hasn't been in anything really good since 1999. It looks like the only movies she was in that were half decent were "Scream 2" and "Cruel Intentions"...but they weren't exactly masterpieces and she only had a cameo in the former. It's like the cast and crew of the show have the same curse that seems to follow most Star Trek actors after their Star Trek career ends.
Well, Michelle Tractenberg has had some film success with movies like
Euro Trip
Ice Princess.
And while most of the actors haven't become huge stars, they do seem to be working steady, often getting regular TV gigs. Nicholas Brendan was a regular on
Kitchen Confidential.
Alyson Hannigan is on
How I Met Your Mother.
Charisma Carpenter had a recurring role on
Veronica Mars.
Anthony Stewart Head was a regular on
in the U.K. David Boreanaz is the co-lead on

Family Guy, Greg the Bunny,
Robot Chicken.
James Marsters played recurring baddies on

Amy Acker had some recurring roles on
Vincent Kartheiser is a regular on

I'd certainly say they have a better track record than most former

Poor Hillary was snubbed by Barack Obama. I suppose she thinks he
should have snubbed Senator Claire McCaskill of Missouri instead. He
was closer to McCaskill then he was to Hillary who was, in any case,
already engaged in false pleasantries with Senator Kennedy. What's
more, Hillary is known to snub people all the time. In fact, she even
snubbed me once at a reception at the White House. I was talking to
someone in the Rose Garden, and she came over to greet the someone with
whom I was already chatting. That someone, in turn, introduced me,
saying, "Of course, you know Marty Peretz," which actually she did
not. I had never been in a room with Hillary that didn't also contain
a thousand other people. That didn't phase her at all. And she
responded, "Indeed, I do," and turned on her heel and left.
I don't have an explanation. Except that The New Republic was
not especially enamored of her health plan which, in retrospect, has
impeded health reform for a decade and a half. As it happens, we had
published a devastating analysis of the proposal by Elizabeth
McCaughey; and somehow, in the mysteries of Washington, this became the
vivid center of the debate. The White House actually put out what I
recall as a nine page rebuttal to the TNR critique, another tactical
mistake in the genius presidency. Anyway, it is to this article that her snub to me may be attributed. But it could be something even more petty.

Japan has shut the final working reactor at a nuclear plant near a tectonic fault line as Prime Minister Naoto Kan pledged a new law to help compensate victims of the Fukushima nuclear crisis.
Workers suspended the Hamaoka power station's number five reactor yesterday in a bid to avoid a repeat of the atomic emergency sparked by the earthquake and tsunami that struck on March 11.

"The shutdown was confirmed after we inserted all 205 control rods into the reactor," said Hiroaki Oobayashi, a spokesman for the plant's operator, Chubu Electric Power Co.

No matter who you'll be voting for this November, I think we can agree on one thing: Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney did, in fact, tie his Irish Setter to the roof of his car in 1983. He said the dog liked it. Gerald Casale, founding member of the band DEVO, would have to disagree.
Seamus may have forgiven Romney, but Casale hasn't.
The songwriter, who is probably best known for co-writing the 1980 hit "Whip It," has a new ditty titled, "Don't Roof Rack Me, Bro!" The song will be released as a single and included in The Crate Escape: Seamus Unleashed, a free gaming app for the iPhone and iPad, designed to satirize the dog-on-roof incident. Both are coming to digital retailers on August 26, 2012. That's National Dog Day, people. It also just happens to be one day before the Republican National Convention.
Despite being inspired by the game, "Don't Roof Rack Me, Bro!" may go down as one of the biggest songs in DEVO history — at least the one that created the most buzz. This coming from a band who helped pioneer the music video age, took home the 2010 Moog Innovator Award, and have a frontman who currently splits some of his time with Nick Jr.'s Yo Gabba Gabba. The list of geeky credentials goes on. I got the chance to fire off a few questions to Casale about the release, his love for animals, the band's future, and how certain Tea Party members may want him dead.
GeekMom: What made you write this song?
Casale: I have a site called RememberSeamus.com as well as a Facebook page, and this guy Scott Crider runs Dogs Against Romney. I got hooked up with him and he was doing a video game with his friends called The Crate Escape. It's a parody video game that's going to be released on the 26th, which is National Dog Day. You get to help Seamus escape from his crate and get revenge on Romney. It's funny.
Talking to him, he was such a cool guy. He said, "Hey why don't you and DEVO write a song for the game?" A few days later, I was with Mark Mothersbaugh and said I'm going to write a song for this video game and I didn't know if DEVO would want to do this. He looked at my lyrics and said OK. We recorded the song and it was all happening — and there was a leak. It wasn't Crider's people and it wasn't me. We were sending e-mails to iTunes about having them distribute the song, so I don't know. Anyway, everything that you see happening has nothing to do with a publicist or a campaign.
GM: Did you expect to get such a reaction out of people?
Casale: No I did not. I've had dogs my whole life. I'm a lover of animals and the symbiotic relationship between people and animals. I thought what Scott was doing was great and we had RememberSeamus.com — but this was all a surprise. I can't believe what a shitstorm this song has created. All of the Tea Party people are talking on the Facebook page, wanting me dead.
GM: Is the timing of the release — the day before the Republican National Convention — just a coincidence?
Casale: [Laughs.] It actually is. You know how long games take to program and to try? They couldn't have planned it. They were trying to hit National Dog Day.
GM: Have you played the game The Crate Escape: Seamus Unleashed?
Casale: I've seen pieces and it's funny — and it features our song.
GM: Can we assume that you're voting for Obama?
Casale: Yes, but it's because of the character of the opponent. It's not because I think that Obama has done a great job or that there's a big difference between Democrats and Republicans. I want to make that clear.
In our society now, the United States is just an idea. It's not a real place anymore; it's a brand. People that really control things here are international banking and corporations that have most of their money outside of the country. Our candidates are figureheads. They're like shill-men on a commercial who present a happy face.
I think Obama has some humanity and he tries his best to do no harm. I think he's owned and bought by the corporations or he wouldn't be president. He might even be dead. Romney is not a good guy. I respect people that respect other species. Don't we have a bond between dogs and cats and other species? If we're supposed to be better, supposed to be smarter and more powerful, then we have a responsibility not to be buttholes about it. I do think people that have empathy for our pets, our children and our elderly; people that have an empathetic bond are people we can trust. I just don't trust this guy.
GM: Do you consider yourself to be an animal person?
Casale: Yes I do, and everybody in DEVO are animal people. I know nobody believes that. People have shaped ideas about us; they stereotype or they think we're robots, that we don't have any emotions. They think we're like aliens. That's not really true. We were warning people about androids and technology and losing your humanity. We think it's very important to interact with animals and pets.
GM: What's next for DEVO?
Casale: We are going on tour with Blondie and have some dates in September. In December, we're going to Australia and touring with Simple Minds. We have a documentary that will be finished next year, about the origins of DEVO. Then, Mark and I are working on a DEVO musical.
GM: Will you perform this song on the tour?
Casale: The funny thing is, we hadn't thought about that; it sort of blindsided us. With this momentum building and rehearsal starting next week, we may have to actually learn to play it live. All we did was record it, and you know how different that is. We may have to do it.
GM: Are you wearing the Energy Dome for this interview?
Casale: No. You caught me at the Blue Plate Oysterette in Santa Monica, California. I don't normally wear the Energy Dome when I'm eating.

Waiver of Service
When you start a divorce by filing an Original Petition for Divorce, the Texas Family Code requires that your spouse be officially notified that the divorce is underway. One way to do this is to have them served by a process server. However, this isn't usually necessary in most agreed divorces.
As the name implies, a Waiver of Service is a document that allows your spouse to waive the requirement for service. In other words, by signing the document, he or she acknowledges that it is not necessary to have them served by a process server.
The Waiver needs to be signed in front of a Notary.

Should the Assembly have followed Gov. Eliot Spitzer's wishes?
Comptroller selection
18 Responses
I think the Assembly is comprised of power-hungry, ego-ruled fools. This whole thing strikes me as "My dog's bigger than your dog."
Did they miss what happened nationally in the November elections? Unresponsive incumbents are out. People are tired of the status quo. Instead of fighting with the Governor, they might want to spend their energy discovering the concerns of the people in their own districts – and then acting on those concerns. If they insist on playing Albany games, many of them will be looking for new jobs.
OK; so DiNapoli seems like a nice guy — but Comptroller is an IMPORTANT FISCAL JOB that should have gone to the MOST QUALIFIED person, not the nicest and most-liked person. Spitzer's right (again). And, boy am I glad that my pension isn't in the hands of such an inexperienced person.
As usual, the NYS Assembly looks to it's own interests before the people's. I have nothing against DiNapoli and am sure he'll do a great job but the Assembly committed themselves to a process and when it didn't turn out exactly the way they hoped they abandoned it, and their integrity, yet again, to reward one of their own.
Well, my Assemblyman just gambled on my next vote and he lost. I'll now support Spitzer even if it means that NYS grinds to a screeching halt.
My optimism in a new and revitalized NYS has evaporated. The honeymoon is already over. How do we get rid of Silver and the rest of the old guard. You agreed to this Shelly, then when it didn't go your way, you took the ball home. Bruno, I gave up on you years ago. NYC,and Brunswick, quit sending Albany your trash! Governor, I will wear out my shoe leather door to door when the time comes to help get rid of of these people.
No, the Assembly should not have followed Gov. Spitzer's wishes. What the Assembly should have done was picked the person best qualified for the job. What the Assembly did was take care of one of their own, once again demonstrating that Silver is more concerned with taking care of elected officials rather than safeguarding the people of the state of New York. The Assembly appointed comptroller's investment experience is overseeing his own $5,000 IRA. Which fine for him because after 25 years in the Assembly, he'll have a large and secure pension to see him comfortably into old age. But now we have a comptroller who is going to have to hire someone to do the comptroller's job of overseeing the pension funds investments. Or at least I hope he's smart enogh to hire someone to do it. Silver was determined "day one" to get an assembly person the position of comptroller. It had nothing to do with who was best for the job. Silver was taking care of his own and flexing his muscle for the new Governor.
This move by the Assembly is outrageous. The most qualified candidate did not become our comptroller. This isn't a small amount of money to be responsible for. Love him or hate him, Hevesi knew what he was doing. I am scared his work will go out the window. I'm sure DiNapoli is a good guy, but didn't seem to be anywhere near as qualified as those backed by Spitzer. I recently graduated college and decided to move back to NY because of the passion and promises Spitzer was bringing to Albany. I am seriously considering moving out of state, again. New Yorkers spoke this past November and elected Spitzer with overwhelming support. I am one of those believers who gave my support. He has the best interests in a state that had years of terrible leadership and seemed dormant while other states flourished and grew. New York seems like a dinosaur among many forward-thinking states. This move by the "aged" leaders of our assembly is a slap in the face of the majority of New Yorkers that back Spitzer. They are not only hurting our State internally, but making us the laughing stock of the nation. Spitzer has the chance to be the leader New York has so very needed for many, many years. New Yorkers want change. The Assembly just made a huge mistake. Instead of looking "strong" they look like outright fools.
It is depressing to see the direction that "Good Old Boy" network took when NYS has finally received its first ray of hope.
I hope Silver gets steamrolled from here on by the Governor.
I will never forget that Jim Hayes of Amherst NY voted for DiNapoli.
Brilliant move. Where's Hillary? Shouldn't she be weighing in on this? Her and Chuckie? After all, they were all over the headlines whining about why people should vote for an embezzeler instead of Callaghan because he wasn't "qualified enough". Now Silver and the Democrats have installed a guy with degrees in history and human resource management in the office instead of Callaghan. So much for the 'unqualified' ruse. And the hypocrisy will pass unremarked in the Times Union, of course.
I hope, they made an educated choice. I think we should give him a chance before saying he's not qualified. I'm not at all surprised they decided not to appoint Spitzer's hand picked choice… especially after he told them he'd f'ing steamroll over them. Seems like his arrogance is only overshadowed by his unprofessionalism!!! Is that the way HE should have started his term ?
New York State Government is comprised of an elected Govenor and elected Assembly and Senate. We did not elect a king or dictator.
The Assembly did the job that it is elected to do to include name and elect the Comptroller. The Govenor had no right to dictate to the other branches of Government how they should do their job and if he thinks he can get anything done without the cooperation of the other partners in Government, he runs the risk of being challenged in the next Primary race.
Sadly he is being viewed as a acting like an arrogant spoiled child
Finally we get a governor who seems to give a damm about NY and were still stuck with a bunch of old men in the assembly who are not willing to work together. Guess who I'm not voting for! Why can't we work together in this state? DUMP THE DOPES IN THE ASSEMBLY! Wake up and PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT WE THE PUBLIC WANT, NOT YOUR EGO's! Hope Spitzer puts his foot right square in the seat of the pants of this assembly, they deserve it! I'm sick of this BS!
New Yorkers elected Spitzer as Governor because we wanted change. We don't want business as usual. We want change. Spitzer's idea for a new comtroller for New York was a great idea. The most qualified person gets the job. A no brainer!!!! So how come we got stuck with someone who is not the most qualified? Silver & Bruno should wake up, New Yorkers like Spitzer. He is our furture. Silver & Bruno are our past. We don't want the past, we want the future.
The Govenor appears to want change on his terms. The Assembly and the Senate are also our elected officals and after seeing how President Bush managed his change, I am all for a system of checks and balances.
The Governors notion of calling in a special pannel was a gambit where he thought he could paint the Assembly into a box. He has been insulting to the other members of our Government who like it or not are key to any change that people think they want.
The Govenor is used to being the top cop and not answerable to anyone, much less other elected officals who also represent the people.
Although I don't particulary care for Senator Bruno, his comment yesterday to the Govenor "welcome to day #2″ will serve as a notice to the Govenor that he has to work with people to Govern.
Unless he mends fences I suspect he will be challenged in a Primary.
Bottom line is this…the Governor and the Assembly committed themselves to a process. If the Assembly did not wish to take a part in this process, even if the results were not what they wanted, then they should not have committed themselves. The Governor did not shove people down their throat. He found people who knew of what the comptroller's job was, what it entailed, and what kind of experience it took to do the job effectively. They then reviewed resumes and work experience to come to the top three people qualified to do teh job. This was a biparftisan effort and done the way it SHOULD have been done. What came out of it was an African-American Woman out of NYC being the front runner, but not the only person qualified for the job.
I feel that the old White farts in the Assembly were upset as the person selected wasn't a good ole boy so they did politics as usual and selected a good ole boy for the job, in clear contradiction of Spitzer's vision for the state, which they publically supported. These fools need to be voted out of office. New York State needs to change. This past dibacle is a clear indication of that. The people on this panel spent time and our taxpayer dollars on a process the Assembly userped for their own personal reasons.
I do not know who DiNapoli is and I cannot say that he won't do a good job. But I find it telling that he was not on the list of qualified applicants. If I was tne CEO of a company and selected someone as our VP of Finance that does not have the credentials, I would be fired. The same needs to happen to those fools in the Assembly come the next election.
While the Govenor injected himself in a process that was the sole responsility of the Assembly and Senate he has ignored the replacement of 100's of hold over Pataki appointments that are still running the Government. Let's get real here!
The Govenor hand picked this special pannel and then tried to paint the Assembly and Senate into a corner to pick his own guy! If you think this was the pannels selection, then I have a bridge to sell you.
Govenor should get down to business and start placing his own people in charge of the State Agencies where the real Governments business is conducted.
If you want to change the Comptrollers job from an elected position to that of appointed one, change the law!!
How about talking about the new Attorney General who has not practiced law in years. Why doen't the Govenor have the ability to name him as well. How about Judges, we elect them as well.
The Governor is wasting our time pouting and needs to move on with the job we elected him to do and that is to Goveror the State. Propose laws and work with the legislative branch to get them passed.
Reform.. on whose terms his? Remember he won't be Govenor forever. We need the checks and balances. Just look at what happen with the President when the House and Senate played dead for 6 years.
Oldguy (#15)
I can assure you that Siver won't be there forever either. The sooner he goes the better. Talk about a hindrance to progress. The govoner isn't wasting time it's the Assembly wasting our time with all there hot air and arguing. If it were up to me the public would vote all positions in, nobody would be appointed. That way we keep Mr. Silver out of his non-productive way and show him that the people of this state are still in charge and he is still subordinate to US and will do what WE want not what HE wants! That guy has to go!
I would not expect Speaker Silver to be there forever, he is also an elected official first by his direct constituents then by his caucus. Speaker Silver is representing the people who placed him in his position.
Given that, it is incumbent upon the Governor to work with the Assembly and Senate.
Fighting with someone who is part of the process and essential to make progress is not productive and short sighted. I can assure you that even if Speaker Silver were to be replaced, this successor will not permit him or herself to be treated like a puppet or doormat.
No. If you don't like the law, work to get it changed. Until then, obey it! But this all was a sham, because in the end, the decision was going to be made by Shelly Sliver no matter what Gov. Steamroller decides. He should be taken to task for trying to get around the law.

The Onion a.v. club interviews
The Onion a.v. club interviews Danny Hoch:
This kid came to my show, like, "Yo, homeboy," with his hat to the side and his pants hanging off his ass. He came to my show four times and paid to get in, and he brought his friends, and I was blown away. He's like, "Hey, man, yeah, you know, I never seen anything like this. What is this?" And I said, "What do you mean, what is it?" And he said, "What do you call this that you're doing?" And I said, "Theater." And he said, "Nah. No, bullshit, it's not theater. What is it called?" And I said, "No, really, it's theater." And he said, "No, dude, if it was theater, it wouldn't be about me."So is Jails, Hospitals, and Hip-Hop going to be released after all?

© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
Collins Hill grad Taylor Heinicke, still playing in a record-setting season for Old Dominion, won the Dudley Award this week as the best college football player in Virginia. He is just the third FCS player to win the award.
The sophomore leads the nation in passing yards (4,158), total offense (4,660) and touchdown passes (41). He broke NCAA Division I records for passing yards (730) and total yards (791) in a game during a 64-61 win over New Hampshire.
Heinicke and his Old Dominion teammates, including fellow Collins Hill grad Andrew Everett, host Georgia Southern today at noon in the FBS playoffs. The game is on ESPN (Parkview grad and former Georgia/NFL offensive lineman Matt Stinchcomb is the analyst).
The two teams met last season with Georgia Southern pulling out a 55-48 win. The Eagles are loaded with Gwinnett grads, among them running back and Buford grad Dominique Swope, who needs 17 yards to reach 1,000 for the season. Norcross grad Dion DuBose also had two tackles for losses in last week's Eagles win over Central Arkansas.
Another local connection --Georgia Southern offensive coordinator Brent Davis went to Duluth.
Gwinnett players help Valdosta State to semis
With the help of Gwinnett products, Valdosta State has advanced to today's NCAA Division II semifinals, where it will play at Minnesota State-Mankato. The game is at 3 p.m.
Four Central Gwinnett grads are on the 54-man travel roster this week -- starting offensive guard Edmund Kugbila, starting safety Lance Holder, reserve linebacker Trokon Gaye and reserve cornerback Cameron Olds. Holder has a team-high three interceptions.
North Gwinnett grad Jake Thomas, an academic All-American, starts at center for the Blazers. Collins Hill grad Chris Caspari, a safety, also is on the travel squad.
Swanson named RedHawks' Impact Player of the Year
Buford grad Jaytee Swanson was named the Miami University football team's Impact Player of the Year during its annual postseason banquet last weekend.
The senior linebacker finished his season with a career-high 52 total tackles with four for losses. He also had two forced fumbles and a half a sack.
Swanson, a social justice studies major, finishes his career with 98 total tackles, 13 tackles for losses and two interceptions.
Clarke, Means square off
Gwinnett grads Tiffany Clarke and Chaney Means went head-to-head on Tuesday night, with Clarke's Vanderbilt Commodores defeating Means and Western Kentucky, 77-67.
Clarke finished with 13 points and six rebounds and Means scored seven points.

Is Bob Casey in Trouble?
Mr. Smith tries to go to Washington.
8:20 AM, Oct 2, 2012 • By MICHAEL WARREN
Instead, Smith decided to run for the Senate. He won a contentious Republican primary earlier this year and was an undisputed underdog as most observers saw Casey with a clear advantage to win reelection. But Casey may be vulnerable, particularly with a record that is demonstrably more liberal than his moderate father's. Most notably, Casey voted for Obamacare and has been nearly silent on the law's proposed regulations on small businesses and its empowerment of the federal government to force religious employers to purchase insurance policies that cover abortions.
"Had I been the United States Senator from Pennsylvania, we would not have the Affordable Care Act, because I would not have voted for it," Smith says. "He did, and he's standing in the way of getting it repealed."
Smith supports repealing Obamacare, citing business owners from across several sectors who tell him the law's stiff regulations will kill jobs. He also supports reforming Medicare along the lines of the reforms outlined in Paul Ryan's budget. Smith says he likes the Ryan plan and is quick to point out that his opponent, Casey, doesn't have a plan for Medicare.
If Smith wants to go from a no-name businessman from Western Pennsylvania to United States Senator, he'll have to convince those Reagan Democrats, and plenty of suburban voters around Philadelphia, that Casey hasn't lived up to his father's reputation as an independent moderate willing to buck his party on issues of principle. Smith says the son has proven he isn't the father.
"He's going to have to defend his voting record, and it's a voting record that's very, very hard to defend," Smith says. "I'm sure he's a nice guy. This isn't personal. This is business."

Helen Mirren, Sylvia Syms in Stephen Frears' The Queen The European Film Awards usually don't have much of an influence on the Academy Awards. Part of the reason is that many of the European Academy's nominated movies aren't eligible for the Hollywood Academy's awards, whether because they were in the running earlier in the year or because they won't have their qualifying Los Angeles run in time for the following year's Oscars. In fact, some may never even get that chance. Besides, it's unclear how many of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' insular members actually know about the existence of the European Film Academy. Last year's Best Film and Best Director winner, Roman Polanski's The Ghost Writer, failed to receive a single Academy Award nomination despite mostly positive reviews from U.S. critics. Of the other five 2010 Best European Film nominees, only Juan José Campanella »

IM: ETM #3_cover
Again, I got nothing new. Just didn't want to go another day without posting on the blog. IM is kicking me in the seat bottom and I'm trying my darn-dest to keep up schedule-wise. BTW, this cover has been posted around someplace, right? I hope the Marvel boys don't get upset if it hasn't.
Anyhoo - here's the cover to #3 before Dave Stewart pulled my proverbial fat out of the fryer by adding his lavish colors. Dave is the man.
Also, thanks to those who have left comments, e-mailed, and posted about how much you folks are enjoying the book thus far. It's really flattering and humbling and very gracious of you all. I am happy beyond words about the response and I hope you continue buying the book.
Aside from that, I hope you all have a great weekend!
Ah, wait! I *just* finished the 'Heroes' Season 1 DVD box set. Remember when I said I realized why everyone was on its jock, and it's an enjoyable show, and blah, blah, blah? Yeah, well that was all horse sh*t. The show is so full of plot holes (gaping, obscene plot holes) that I could barely get through this 6 (or was it 7? Ugh, really? 7? It took 7 discs to tell this story that could've wrapped up in 5 episodes? Ugh.) disc blunder. And plot holes is only the least of it's crimes! I'd like to get rid of this thing as soon as I can - and that's saying A LOT considering that I have more than a few terrible/questionable movies in my collection. That said, and especially because of my *glowing* review, if you'd like to have this set for your very own collection, drop me a note and I'll send it out to you. It's on me. Seriously. That's how much I dislike this show. So if you don't mind a slightly used, but gently handled DVD box set of Heroes: The Season 1, and you live in the continental United States (you know - 'cause this thing is Region 1 coded and all), send me out an e-mail with your mailing address and I'll get this damn thing out to you ASAP. For free. Seriously. That's how much I despised this show. I just figured I'd pay it forward to someone who may find enjoyment in NBC's 'original' programming. I only got this one set so the first one to claim it is the... um... lucky(?)... um... winner. So, yeah... I'll send it out to you. Immediately. Seriously. Take it. You really should. Please.
All right - *now* have a GREAT weekend.

that cover is simplicity at it's best.
great design.
- Kyle Latino said...
Glad to hear that someone out there thought about the same of Heroes as I do. But you really kicked it up a notch by giving away the dvd's. I'm impressed.
Anyways, I saw that cover for IronManderin #3, and it makes me want to pick up the series. That is a fine cover. For whatever reason, I saw that and decided that you officially rule in my book.
- Gabriele Pennacchioli said...
Love your cover!
Those crows in silhouette are terrific!
- Brian said...
That, my friend, is putting your money where your mouth is.
Over all I enjoyed Heroes - big fan of Tim Sale's art - but the ending was very anti-climatic and the new season is off to a very faltering start. I'm getting the feeling they really don't know where to go after saving the cheerleader and saving the world, but Kristen Bell is joining the show next week so I'll be hanging in there.
- chamba said...
and one fantastic cover it is.
another fine example of why i love your work.
- rico said...
I was surprised when I read here that Stewart colors the covers, I thought that was all you! I guess you guys are synching up pretty well. Who has time to color, am I right?! ;p
- Carlos V. said...
Just picked up the first two issues of IM: ETM.
Your artwork rocks and I love the feel you bring to the character. Whats up with the art deco rocketeer covers though??? You seem to draw those in a slightly different version of your style too. I didnt even think that you did them until I saw your signature on them. The new cover inks looks amazing. Keep the grind up.
- Guillermo P. Mogorrón said...
The best drawing+composition in your blog, or at least my favorite, you hit the nail on this one.
- Playkill said...
Dood thats awesome. Loving your stuff!

Illamasqua Sealing Gel
I dunno about you but I spend most of my makeup life trying to get my makeup to stick around and hang out with me for hours on end. No one likes makeup that fades away within hours of application!
Illamasqua Sealing Gel is $15, hey what's the catch on that cheap price, and promises to seal powder products in place all day!
Mix it with the Eye Shadow, Pigments, or the Eye Liner Cake to create a color-intense paste that dries quickly and lasts for hours.
I dunno if I really need to seal down my eye shadow since Urban Decay Primer Potion does the trick but I can get on board if this helps with fall out woe when it comes to pigments eh?
Plus can't beat the price tag of 2 for $15 right?
Worth a try do you think?
Available from Sephora.
10/5/10 19:27 Caroline:
I am on the market for a sealant and I'm so glad oyu posted this b/c for some reason I thought this was $24, and I've been looking for something more inexpensive. This is going back on my Sephora Friend & Family list! Thank you!
11/4/10 1:04 theRothstanator:
I really can't rave more about this product! You get two bottles for this price, and a little bit goes a long way. I used this to seal both of my Halloween looks. I have used it to stick gold leaf to my face, mixed it with glitter to prevent creasing and fall out, and used it to stop my Illamasqua liquid metals and Make Up For Ever flash colors from creasing (kinda works for the last two/still needs a powder). I have bought the item twice and was going to buy more today with my 20% Sephora coupon but they are sold out as of now I also think they might have been $12 before but I might be making that up? Love it!

12 Songs Given Second Lives as Famous TV Show Themes
Originally posted 04/01/2015 07:00AM
Mad Men is ending, and while the show's opening credits are inseparable from RJD2's haunting theme, there was a time when that beat was known only as "A Beautiful Mine," by RJD2 and rapper Aceyalone.
Matthew Weiner originally wanted a Beck song to play as the show's opening theme, but the singer turned down every offer from the show's producers. Weiner was driving and listening to NPR one day when he heard "A Beautiful Mine" played as segue music between two stories and was immediately struck by it, though the version that ultimately was used was so different from the original that RJD2 didn't recognize it when he first heard it. He's probably okay with it now, though.
Anna Paquin in Talks to Play Axie Muldoon in Madame X
Originally posted 03/06/2015 07:40PM
HBO's favorite vampy fairy may be returning to work on another sexy show, but this time as a mere human.
Former True Blood actress Anna Paquin is in talks to play the lead in Madame X, according to The Wrap.
The miniseries is adapted from Kate Manning's period novel My Notorious Life, which is based on a true story from the Victorian era. The series follows Axie Muldoon (Paquin), a penniless daughter of immigrants who becomes a successful, yet controversial, midwife and abortionist in New York City.
Paquin, 32, and real-life hubby Stephen Moyer, 45, are reportedly working on the project together. The duo will executive produce the series through their production company CASM Films, alongside actor-comedian Jack Black, 45, according to Deadline.

True Blood Series Finale Ends with a Wedding – and a Funeral

If True Blood has taught fans anything, it's that nothing lasts forever – even immortal vampires.

Warning: True Blood spoilers ahead for the final time.
True Blood's Jim Parrack Admits It: He Drinks Real Blood
Originally posted 08/18/2014 04:00PM
Too much time around vampires? That may be the case for True Blood actor Jim Parrack, who recently admitted he like to indulge in drinking a bit of real blood.
After mentioning this at the opening last March of Broadway's Of Mice and Men, Parrack confirmed he wasn't kidding when he reiterated his taste for blood in a recent interview with Vulture.
"I was being literal. I like the real deal," the actor said, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's quenching his thirst every day.

Abbey Lincoln on the Axis of the Civil Rights Movement
February 26, 2010
I'd like to stay on the subject of music and Civil Rights for one more post. The ongoing talk about Joan Baez's performance of "We Shall Overcome" at the White House has reminded me how readily we embrace the idea of music as an instrument of political change when, often, music is more a reflection of changes in the political realm—an effect, rather than a cause. Not that songs have no power to influence the way people think or feel; to say that would be to deny the very value of music as a form of art.
Lessons for Obama
September 29, 2009
I confess to reading people on the right. Sometimes with utter dismay. Oftentimes with respect. Among the people I read regularly is Peter Wehner who actually writes for Commentary's website, Contentious, with other conservative intellectuals. And very contentious they are. Wehner actually was one of George Bush's speechwriters. Since I thought some of Bush's speeches quite alright--and even better--this fact is not a disqualifier. Indeed, Wehner is one smart guy ... and a stylish writer besides. What's more, he knows his history.
Stolen Moments
September 10, 2007
Abbey Sings Abbey Abbey Lincoln Love Is What Stays Mark Murphy Near the end of 1956, two young jazz singers made their first albums: Abbey Lincoln's Affair … A Story of a Girl in Love, released by Liberty Records, a quality-conscious shoestring operation, and Meet Mark Murphy, issued by Decca, then a major jazz-pop label. Lincoln was twenty-six and black and a woman, Murphy twenty-four and white and a man, and both had talent and looks. For half a century, they followed separate and circuitous but roughly parallel career paths.
