The introduction of the free BlackBerry® Mobile Conferencing app in June was a huge hit with BlackBerry® smartphone users, and we received a great amount of positive feedback as well as suggestions for improvement through the BlackBerry® Beta Zone community. Today I'm excited to announce that BlackBerry Mobile Conferencing version 2.0 is available on the BlackBerry® App World™ storefront. IT managers also have the option of downloading the app from our Software Download Site and pushing the app to end-users.
For those who are unfamiliar with the app, BlackBerry Mobile Conferencing is designed to make your mobile conferencing experience far simpler and more convenient. The app is designed to automatically pull conference call information out of invitations and appointments on your BlackBerry smartphone. It then takes that information and creates a simple one-click "Join Now" button that pops up at the meeting time or the meeting can be accessed from within the appointment in your calendar. On top of this ease of access, you can reconnect with one click if you drop from a call. The app also allows you to manage your own conference profiles which can be included in appointments and invitations. See the BlackBerry Mobile Conferencing website for further details.
The app is still free, and is designed to operate whether you're on a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server or on the BlackBerry® Internet Service. Mobile Conferencing is currently available in the United States and Canada only, with plans to expand to additional regions in the near future.
Here's what's new in version 2.0:
Improved Detection of Conference Call Details
The Mobile Conferencing app is designed to now recognize even more conference information when it is included in invites and calendar appointments, and automatically allow attendees to "Join Now".
Conference Call ID
Now you can more easily recognize and keep track of past calls. When you join a conference call, the meeting subject will now appear as the caller ID on your smartphone, as well as in your call history. This also means that past conference calls will appear in your Universal Search on BlackBerry® 6 and BlackBerry® 7 OS smartphones, again named by meeting invite subject. Lastly, on BlackBerry 7 OS devices, the voice-enabled Universal Search results can also pull up these past conference calls by subject.
Conference Profiles Increased to 10
Users can instantly add preset conference call details to almost any meeting they schedule by selecting from up to ten stored profiles.
Private Moderator Codes
BlackBerry Mobile Conferencing is designed to now manage participant and moderator information to help maintain confidentiality. Invites sent using conference profiles stored on your BlackBerry smartphone will now only contain the participant code when viewed by attendees. If you are the moderator of a conference call, the app will check with your stored conference information and provide you with the moderator code automatically.
Convert an Email Thread into a Conference Call
Help put an end to long email threads by scheduling a conference call with email participants in just a few clicks. The sender and recipients are included as attendees, the subject of the email becomes your meeting subject, and the body is copied into the invite automatically. Just add your conference details from a stored profile, click send, and you're all set.
To learn more, check out the Mobile Conferencing website as well as the original blog post for version one. To download BlackBerry Mobile Conferencing, head over to BlackBerry App World.

Applus+ specializes in the area of certification, operating in 25 different sectors including automotive, construction, food and environment. In automotive certification, Applus+ is present in all stages of the vehicle life cycle, offering a wide range of services to the general public and the automotive industry. IDIADA Automotive Technology SA was created in 1999, and is owned by Applus and the Government of Catalonia.
The reduction of noise and vibration (N&V) issues has paradoxically increased problems with squeak and rattle (S&R) in vehicle interiors, impacting warranties and customer satisfaction for automotive manufacturers and dealers.
Engineers used Abaqus finite element analysis (FEA) to approximate nonlinear car component S&R effects inside linear N&V models, in order to pinpoint where S&R may arise.
IDIADA is developing increasingly sophisticated realistic simulation models that will help mitigate squeak and rattle issues in the earliest stages of design rather than identifying the problem later and having to fix it, saving time and cost down the product development and marketing road. Interestingly enough, the simulation models identified even more potential S&R problems for future refinement.

For Immediate Release, November 5, 2009
Contact: Tierra Curry, Center for Biological Diversity, (928) 522-3681
Coal Company Destroys Last Intact Mountain in Coal River Valley
FLAGSTAFF, Ariz.— A subsidiary of Massey Energy has begun mountaintop-removal coal-mining operations on Coal River Mountain in West Virginia, the only peak in Coal River Valley that hasn't been blasted away for mining. Blasting for the mine is taking place 200 yards from the Brushy Fork coal slurry impoundment, which holds 8 billion gallons of toxic coal sludge above the Coal River community. Local and national conservation organizations including the Center for Biological Diversity are asking the Environmental Protection Agency and the White House to halt the mining operation.
"It is just plain wrong to blow up the last mountain in Coal River Valley and to jeopardize the lives of the people living below the slurry dam. The federal government should intervene and protect this community," said Tierra Curry, a biologist at the Center.
Citizens are concerned that blasting could weaken or breach the slurry dam. A coal slurry impoundment owned by a Massey subsidiary failed in 2000, spilling more than 300 million gallons of toxic slurry into the Big Sandy River in Martin County, Kentucky. In 1972, 125 people were killed by a 132-million-gallon slurry spill in Logan County, West Virginia.
At 3,300 feet, Coal River Mountain is the tallest mountain ever to undergo mountaintop-removal mining. Massey Energy plans to blast away 6,600 acres of the mountain and fill in 18 streams with toxic mining waste. Mountaintop-removal coal mining has already destroyed 500 mountains, more than 1 million acres of hardwood forest, and more than 1,200 miles of streams in Appalachia.

|Micro Systemation
|Template:Mobile forensics
XRY, pronounced "ex-arr-why", is a forensic system specifically designed for analyzing mobile digital devices written by Micro Systemation. The software is designed to run on a Windows computer and will retrieve information from mobile devices for immediate display of the results or files can be saved for later analysis. At the time of writing support levels included smartphones, gps units and mobile tablets such as the iPad.
XRY comes complete as a package containing both hardware and software to read the device information. XRY currently includes the following hardware in the package; XRY Communications Unit, SIM Card Reader, Clone SIM Cards, Write-Protected Memory Card Reader & Complete set of Cables.
The hardware is connected to a Windows computer using a USB cable and is capable of displaying immediate results from the device extraction.
The software can grab phone book information, SMS and other text messages, MMS, call lists, calendar entries, task items, pictures, media files, and SIM card information. XRY also retrieves a lot of information about the phone itself, such as IMEI/ESN, IMSI, model no., matching between the clock in the telephone and the computer, etc. The latest version includes support for some smartphone applications such as Facebook, Myspace, Skype and Gmail.
The system generates an encrypted file called .XRY which contains a copy of all the information retrieved from the phone. The company also licences customers to free issue their XRY Reader application so these secure encrypted files can be read by authorized third parties.
One difference with XRY is that the software allows for the extraction of up to 3 different mobile devices simultaneously on the same computer from a single license key.
Supported devices
The tool supports more than 5,000 different mobile device profiles including GSM, UMTS, CDMA and iDEN phones. SIM cards are supported as well. Smartphones such as Android, BlackBerry, iPhone, Symbian and Windows Mobile are also supported.
XRY is one of a limited number of mobile forensic products which also offers Physical Extraction capabilities on devices to gain access to potentially more information from a device, including deleted data.
XRY Reader
XRY creates a report containing the user's own logotype, address, etc. and the basic required information. The generated report can either be printed out, exported in whole or in part, or forwarded electronically with .XRY Reader which is distributed for free. A search function simplifies the task of searching for a particular name/number or some other type of text.

Plastic will survive park temps (200 degrees F) so in a pinch you can use a plastic container. Just heat your solution in a big stainless steel pot, run up to the max temp. Pour it over the rifle in the tank and let sit. By the time it cools off enough for the process to slow down it is done. Pre-heating the rifle in the oven will help too.
A piece of schedule 40 drain pipe with a cap glued on one end makes a nice vertical tank. Just make sure you pre-fill it to verify you have enough solution.

Bronx Eats: Go for the Gyros and Chicken-Lemon Soup at Christos
Deemed one of the three best spots for gyros in New York by the Daily News, Christos Gyros & Souvlaki is one of the few places in Kingsbridge Heights getting notice for their grub. Their gyros are certainly the best you're going to find in the Bronx, many notches above the halal cart renditions you'll find along Fordham Road, down by the Hub, and in other well trafficked areas. So what about their other fare?
For this visit, we skipped over that much-loved gyro in favor of Christos's pork souvlaki ($5.50), that other standard of the Greek sandwich shop. Unfortunately that sandwich can't quite compete. While the tzatziki is bright and tasty, a little bit tangy with an undercurrent of freshness courtesy of the cucumber, it's also zealously overapplied, like too much cream cheese on a bagel. The pita itself is nothing special, a chewy but more or less bland store-bought canvas for the meat.
There's a lot of flavorless romaine in there too, and some crunchy, stringy and slightly bitter red onion, but not quite enough pork. What pork you do find has a nice, lightly smoky char that plays well with the creaminess of the tzatziki, but it's not enough to compensate. Do yourself a favor and stick to the gyros.
For all the disappointment that the pork souvlaki is, our meal was rescued, and then some, by the well recommended lemon chicken soup ($6). It's chicken soup as it should be—straightforward and uncomplicated, but salty and lip-smacking with the lemon's tart sweetness. As you drink more of the soup, the lemon flavor comes on stronger, but it never overtakes the soup's poultry backbone. Soft but not mushy rice waits at the bottom, mingling with strands of chicken. It's a soup to embrace.
If you've got a sweet tooth, you'll find a trio of desserts produced by owner Christopher Parashakis's wife: baklava, made daily, Greek yogurt with honey and nuts, and rice pudding ($3.50). I'm a sucker for the latter, and opted for it without second thought. The pudding comes is proudly presented in a tall, classic sundae glass, adorned with a billowing crown of cinnamon and canned whipped cream. Dig through that pillow and you'll get to a rice pudding that is dense and sticky, just a hint nutty and not too creamy, a more subtle but equally tasty take than I am used to enjoying.

The Washington Wizards finally had some good magic cast on them Tuesday night, winning the NBA draft lottery after a season filled with on-the-court disappointments and off-the-court drama and heartbreak.
Irene Pollin, wife of the team's longtime owner Abe Pollin, stood with her mouth agape as the Wiz won the number one pick in the league's June draft.
"This is very, very special. I have been in this my entire adult life and to be here, representing my husband, this is very special to me tonight," Pollin told The Associated Press while wearing her late husband's 1978 NBA championship ring. "I think it's the culmination of my husband's dream because he wanted another ring and maybe this will get us another ring."
Washington beat out the Philadelphia 76'ers and the New Jersey Nets -- the team with the league's worst record -- to secure the top pick. The Wizards will most likely decide between the national player of the year, Ohio State's Evan Turner, or Kentucky freshman phenom John Wall.
The Nets, represented by new owner Mikhail Prokhorov, brushed off his team's third place lottery finish, despite the fact that they had the best odds of picking first.
"Sometimes luck makes all the difference, but it never comes down to one player," the Russian billionaire told the AP. "I'm sure we're going to get a great player. For our team, the only way is up."
The Wizards are coming off a tumultuous year in which their best player, Gilbert Arenas, was suspended for brandishing a firearm in the team's locker room and fan-favorites Caron Butler and Antwan Jamison were traded away to clear salary cap space.
Ted Leonsis, the owner of the NHL's Washington Capitals who is in the process of buying the Wizards from the Pollin family, said the pick will help re-energize basketball in Washington.
"We have a lot of work to do with the franchise," Leonsis told the AP. "The players, the culture, the expectations, the discipline around the team, but I do think it is a breath of fresh air and does revive the franchise and gives us a shot to be an exciting team with a lot of expectations. I know how hard it is to rebuild a team. I am going to be patient but I have a strong belief that our management team and ownership team is very focused."

Michael Sheen On The 'Accuracy And Invention' Of Real-Life Roles
This is FRESH AIR. I'm Dave Davies in for Terry Gross.
MICHAEL SHEEN: (As William Masters) Why would a woman fake an orgasm?
LIZZY CAPLAN: (As Virginia Johnson) Usually so the woman can get back to whatever it is she'd rather be doing.
DAVIES: My guest, British actor Michael Sheen, is currently starring in the Showtime series "Masters of Sex," in which he plays the groundbreaking sex researcher William Masters. Some of Sheen's most memorable roles have been playing real people. He was a highly regarded theater actor in England where he played Mozart and Caligula among others.
He got into movies and earned good review playing Prime Minister Tony Blair in "The Queen," and two other films. And he played the late British journalist David Frost in the stage and screen versions of "Frost/Nixon." Sheen's also had his share of fictional roles including a funny guest appearance on several episodes of the TV series "30 Rock."
When I spoke to Michael Sheen, we began with the new Showtime series "Masters of Sex" about the collaboration between Dr. William Masters and his associate, Virginia Johnson. Starting in the 1950s, they researched the physiological impact of sex by observing men and women having intercourse with electrodes attached to capture physical changes.
In this scene, Masters and Johnson have decided to participate in the study by having sex with each other. And beforehand, they're asking each other the background questions every participant has to answer. Johnson, played by Lizzy Caplan, speaks first.
CAPLAN: (As Virginia Johnson) I was 15.
SHEEN: (As William Masters) Where did it take place?
CAPLAN: (As Virginia Johnson) In the back of a Plymouth. And how old were you when you first had sexual intercourse?
SHEEN: (As William Masters) Twenty in a cabin on Rainbow Lake.
CAPLAN: (As Virginia Johnson) Did you have sexual intercourse with your spouse before marriage?
SHEEN: (As William Masters) I did not. Did you?
CAPLAN: (As Virginia Johnson) Yes, with both marriages. I suppose it never occurred to me to wait until marriage. If currently married, how frequently do you have coitus with your spouse?
SHEEN: (As William Masters) Uh, we're not having coitus presently.
CAPLAN: (As Virginia Johnson) Because of the miscarriage. I should have skipped that question.
SHEEN: (As William Masters) That's all right. Uh, how frequently do you have coitus with a partner?
CAPLAN: (As Virginia Johnson) I don't have a partner at present.
SHEEN: (As William Masters) Meaning you're not having coitus?
CAPLAN: (As Virginia Johnson) Meaning, no, not right now. Last question before we start. Does emotional attachment play a significant role in your ability to enjoy sex?
SHEEN: (As William Masters) Significant role. Hard to say, but yes I suppose so. A qualified yes. And you?
CAPLAN: (As Virginia Johnson) Not really. I mean, it can, but it's a curious thing. I've always felt different from other women. Most women, they want love when they sleep with a man, but I've always been able to separate sex from love.
DAVIES: And that's our guest, Michael Sheen, and Lizzy Caplan in the Showtime series, "Masters of Sex." Well Michael Sheen, welcome to FRESH AIR. So much is going on there as we listen to your voice. I mean, this guy is detached. He's threatened. He's trying to be honest. It's also the kind of conversation people have before they're about to become physically intimate, which is, you know, kind of fraught with tension, anyway.
SHEEN: Yes, exactly. I mean, incredibly vulnerable and exposing and intimate, and that's a big part of what the show is about, you know. I think the thing that makes people ear's prick up is that it's a show about sex and the study about sex, but it's, you know, ultimately it's the study of intimacy, of how do we deal with being vulnerable with each other; how do we deal with the challenges of intimacy and the kind of games we play and the defenses we have.
And you can sort of hear it in that, coaching phases around very technical terms or scientific terms when in fact what's actually going on is something much more naked and raw and vulnerable.
DAVIES: Yeah. I guess what I find fascinating, and I remember these scenes where you and Lizzy Caplan are looking at each other and you're supposed to be these two professionals engaging in an act of research, but in fact you're engaging in this very intimate act of physical intercourse and there are moments where you're looking into each other's eyes and I see this, like am I going to express love here. I start to, and then I catch myself because no, I can't be doing that. This is all about science.
SHEEN: Yeah, well yes. I mean, specifically scenes where, for instance, you're describing, where we are having sex but because the whole idea is that it's separate of emotion and attraction and all those kind of things, that it's just scientific. You know, of course it can't be. It's impossible for it to be like that, but you have these two people, or certainly this one person, Bill Masters, who is, you know, leading the experiment and trying not to show any emotion.
And that is a very peculiar thing to play as an actor, to be doing something that is usually in a story the most intimate thing, where it becomes very, you know, you see desire, you see lust, you see attraction, you see all those things. You're kissing or whatever, and that sort of makes it easy. You lose yourself in it. And here's a scene where we're not even supposed to look at each other particularly as it's happening, and I'm supposed to say orgasm as I orgasm, plateau or whatever it might be.
And that is a very peculiar thing to act, but it's sort of brilliant, you know. It's a wonderful thing to act. It's great to be able to do it like that rather than the sort of usual boring way. Regular sex will always be just boring for me now.
DAVIES: How well does the story of William Masters and Virginia Johnson, as we see it in the series, do you know how closely that conforms to, you know, their actual lives and experiences, how much artistic license there is?
SHEEN: Well, Michelle Ashford, who created the series, based it on the book by Thomas Maier about Bill and Virginia. And so what's useful, in a way, is that you've got this kind of template, the actual events of their life, the facts of their life that we constantly, you know, draw on, that's absolutely the spine of what we're doing. But at the same time, they, as a relationship, and Bill Masters specifically as a man, it was very difficult to know what was going on.
They were very secretive and private and he was very, you know, he was very defended and guarded and it was very difficult to get to know him for real. So even though you can look at the facts of their life and you can see, oh this happened and that happened, that happened, that's so not the full story, which is great for us, you know, because then, by necessity, you have to explore, you have to invent within that framework.
So I think it's a kind of perfect combination of actual factual accuracy and invention.
DAVIES: We're speaking with Michael Sheen. He stars in the new Showtime series "Masters of Sex." I'd like to talk about "The Queen," the 2006 film that you were in with - directed by Stephen Frears, in which you played Prime Minister Tony Blair and this is one of three films in which you've played Tony Blair.
This is the middle of the three. I guess there's a particular challenge to playing a real person who's still around and whom the audience has very clear images of.
SHEEN: Yes. I mean, a lot of it, apart from anything else, is about expectations, I suppose, and people's own, certainly in Britain particularly, people's own personal feelings about that person when it's a politician and a prime minister and by the point that we were making, the film's really a very controversial and political figure, then how people feel about him personally clearly plays into how they're going to react to what you're doing in the film. So that's, you know, a huge challenge.
DAVIES: Let's hear a clip from the film. It's about Queen Elizabeth and the royal family's reaction to the untimely death of Princess Diana, when Tony Blair was, I guess, relatively recently elected Prime Minister. And the problem was the queen was very remote and appeared to be uncaring to a grieving public, since Princess Diana was no longer a part of the royal family. And the result was horrifically negative media coverage, popular anger at the queen and even at the monarchy itself.
And Prime Minister Blair spends a lot of the film trying to advise the queen to come to London, make a public statement, show some sympathy, which eventually she does and that gesture is well received. In this scene we're going to hear, near the end of the film, months after that drama, when the prime minister has his regular meeting with the queen. She's played by Helen Mirren. And in this meeting you refer back to that tumultuous week that you experienced.
SHEEN: (As Prime Minister Tony Blair) The circumstances were exceptional, Madam. And in the end you showed great personal strength, courage and humility.
HELEN MIRREN: (As Queen Elizabeth) You're confusing humility with humiliation.
SHEEN: (As Prime Minister Tony Blair) That's not true.
MIRREN: (As Queen Elizabeth) You didn't read the cards or the flowers outside the palace that Friday.
SHEEN: (as Prime Minister Tony Blair) I actually think history will show it was a good week for you.
MIRREN: (as Queen Elizabeth) And an even better one for you, Mr. Blair.
SHEEN: (as Prime Minister Tony Blair) But there are 52 weeks in the year, ma'am, and two and one half thousand in the times since you've been queen. And when people come to assess your legacy, they won't remember those few days.
MIRREN: (as Queen Elizabeth) Oh, really? You don't think that what affection people once had for this institution has been diminished?
SHEEN: (as Prime Minister Tony Blair) No. Not at all. You're more respected now than ever.
MIRREN: (as Queen Elizabeth) I gather some of your closest advisers were less fulsome in their support.
SHEEN: (as Prime Minister Tony Blair) One or two. But as a leader, I could never have added my voice to that chorus.
MIRREN: (as Queen Elizabeth) Because you saw those headlines and you thought one day that might happen to me. And it will, Mr. Blair, quite suddenly and without warning.
DAVIES: And that is Helen Mirren, as Queen Elizabeth and our guest, Michael Sheen in the film "The Queen."
And we should mention the other two times that you played Tony Blair was for the film "The Deal," which was about his conversation with Gordon Brown. And then the one after "The Queen" was "That Special Relationship," an HBO film about his relationship with, I guess, Bill Clinton and to some extent George W. Bush.
SHEEN: Yes.
DAVIES: When you made "The Queen" in 2006, you had played a lot of leading roles. And here you are playing the most powerful man in Britain, I suppose. But his role in this drama is to sort of react to the queen and maybe kind of express the country's reaction to the queen. And I wondered if it was hard to take on a role of this powerful man essentially supporting, you know, Helen Mirren's performance as her majesty?
SHEEN: Well, it's interesting because the role is I think in a lot of Peter Morgan's films - Peter Morgan is the writer of "The Queen." He also wrote "The Deal" and "Special Relationship." He also wrote "Frost/Nixon." He also wrote "The Damned United." So we've done a lot of projects together. And one of the things that is the case sort of repeatedly in a lot of his work is that there are often two characters pitted against each other, or certainly, you know, working with each other. One of them I always think of as being the kind of mythological hero going into the maze, you know, like Perseus or Odysseus or something. And the other character is the monster, is the thing at the heart of the labyrinth. And we follow the story of the hero. Of course we, you know, that's, as an audience, that's our point of contact and that's the main thrust of the story. But we're fascinated and compelled and drawn to the monster who we know less about, who is more enigmatic, who is more hidden. So, but often, and often the monster part is the supporting part and it's the hero who is the hero, literally. But our fascination with the monster is such that that's the character who looms largest in our consciousness, you know, or in our unconsciousness, I suppose.
So for instance, in "Frost/Nixon," it's Frost who is the character that we followed. It's his story that we're following. But it's Nixon who is the minotaur of the heart of the labyrinth, and the same with the queen. And that's a, you know, for a figure who, I think this is one of the things that Peter Morgan does brilliantly, is that taking figures who we're so familiar with and yet not. You know, figures who have become almost two-dimensional in our minds and have become huge in that sense and that Nixon had become a sort of a cardboard cutout figure, a sort of a bogeyman. And the queen had become a sort of iconic but very, you know, surface kind of understanding for us, and then fleshing them out, making them three-dimensional.
DAVIES: Well, I want to talk about "Frost/Nixon" in a moment. But, you know, since you played Tony Blair so much and so well, did you ever talk to him about your performances?
SHEEN: I tend to on the rare occasions when I played characters who are actually still alive and there is the possibility, I suppose, of meeting them, I have always shied away from that, certainly until a point where I feel confident in where I'm going with the character or what might, you know, what my take is, at least. Because I don't want to be thrown off. I don't want to feel compromised in how I approach the characters, and if you actually know the person than that can be a bit difficult. With Blair, in between "The Queen" and "The Special Relationship," where I felt like I sort of knew what I was doing a bit more, there was the opportunity came up to meet him, and so I did and it was very interesting. I knew that he had said that he'd never watched any of the films, which I think from a political point of view is the most appropriate response, because if he says he's seen them, then obviously people can say well, is that true and did that happen and did that happen? And, you know, I'm sure he doesn't want to get into those sort of conversations, so he certainly possessed a very good working knowledge of scenes from all three...
SHEEN: ...or all two at that point. And, in fact, when I was doing the research it was very interesting over the course of the three, that as I did research in between for each one, in preparation for each one, I would obviously look at any new footage that had come out since the last one. And in doing the preparation for "The Special Relationship," the third one, of course, in the documentaries - which there had been a lot made because Blair had, you know, was no longer prime minister, and then so there was a lot of, you know, his legacy and his, the overall thing. And obviously, the films like "The Deal" and "The Queen" became part of those documentaries. So my research included my own performance...
SHEEN: ...which was very peculiar.
DAVIES: But so, when you met, there was no pat on the shoulder, no atta-boy, no you didn't get this quite right, none of that?
SHEEN: Oh, goodness me, no. There was certainly no atta-boy. It was a very kind of, it was like two dogs sniffing each other a little bit. He was very qualified in his kind of reaction. He's someone who clearly is very charming, and is very easy to like and warm to when you meet them just as a human being. But I could see that his sort of senses were kind of going haywire, where he sort of wants to be lovely and nice to me, but also doesn't want to give anything away just in case I use it and all that kind of stuff. So it was very strange. And then essentially, he put his chief of staff and the lady who'd run his foundation on me and they kept me away from him all night.
DAVIES: We're speaking with Michael Sheen. He stars in the new Showtime series "Masters of Sex." We'll continue our conversation after a quick break. This is FRESH AIR.
DAVIES: If you're just joining us, we're speaking with actor Michael Sheen. He stars with Lizzy Caplan in the new Showtime series "Masters of Sex."
I want to talk about "Frost/Nixon," the film that you made in 2008, also written by Peter Morgan, directed by Ron Howard. And I should explain a little bit. So we have - I'm sure we have some listeners who are a little too young to remember this. I mean President Nixon had resigned in 1974 after the Watergate scandal and was living in isolation in California, and this flashy English journalist and celebrity interviewer, David Frost, pulled off this deal paying Nixon for a series of interviews that got a huge audience. And there was a play and film, which you starred in, about the whole project, the preparation and how Frost pulls it off. And I wanted to play a clip from the film. And this is in the last of the interviews when David Frost finally gets down to a boring into Nixon about the Watergate scandal. And we're going to hear you, as David Frost speaking with Nixon, who is played by Frank Langella, talking about the details of the cover-up of the Watergate break-in. Let's listen.
SHEEN: (as David Frost) Now, you've always maintained that you knew nothing about any of this until March 21st. But in February, your personal lawyer came to Washington to start the raising of $219,000 of hush money to be paid to the burglars. Now do you seriously expect us to believe that you had no knowledge of that?
FRANK LANGELLA: (as Richard Nixon) None. I believed the money was for humanitarian purposes. To help disadvantaged people with their defenses.
SHEEN: (as David Frost) Well, it was being delivered on the tops of phone booths with aliases, and at airports by people with gloves on. That's not normally the way lawyers' fees are delivered, is it?
LANGELLA: (as Richard Nixon) Look, I have made statements to this effect before. All that was Haldeman and Ehrlichman's business. I knew nothing. OK, fine. Fine. You made a conclusion there. I stated my view, now let's move on. Let's get on to the rest of it.
SHEEN: (as David Frost) No, hold on. No, hold on.
LANGELLA: (as Richard Nixon) No, I don't want to talk.
SHEEN: Haldeman and Ehrlichman...
DAVIES: And a crackling conversation there in the film "Frost/Nixon." That was our guest Michael Sheen and Frank Langella playing Nixon. Boy, it's fun to watch you play David Frost, kind of the special verbal tics. And I mean he's flashy, he's, you know, he's outspoken. Tell us a little bit about how you got David Frost. I heard you followed him once walking down the street.
SHEEN: Yeah. I was - when we were rehearsing for the play, I was invited to a party fairly early on in the rehearsals or something and I went to it. And just as I was about to walk in, I was crossing the road and I saw David Frost with someone walking down the street. I just thought this is clearly too serendipitous to ignore and so I just kind of just followed him for a bit, just sort of getting a sense of who he is, you know, in the flesh as a physical creature, just how he moves and that kind of stuff. And that was my first physical experience of him. But he, you know, it's interesting because the - again, he is someone who was so, so very familiar to a British audience. The problem you have when you're playing someone who is so familiar to an audience is that the first thing their expectation brings is oh, is he going to look like him, is he going to sound like him, you know, that kind of thing. And so you do have to meet that. You can't ignore that because ignoring it could be as detrimental as overly playing to that. The point is to try and take that out of the equation as soon as possible so that the audience can just focus on what's going on underneath.
DAVIES: And...
SHEEN: Because otherwise people might think it's a brilliant impersonation but they're not following the story in it.
DAVIES: And Frost is a guy who has a showman's, you know, kind of confidence. But there's an edge to him too in the film. He is unsettled, isn't he?
SHEEN: Hmm. Well, again, the engine of that character for me was the combination of that on the surface he seemed like, his reputation was of being a, you know, the sort of playboy. He had this kind of glamorous life and that he was quite superficial. That was one of the ways that people saw him, and that he was very much a sort of people-pleaser. He wanted people to like him. He was charming. He was - seemed very laid back. But underneath, he was, you know, he was a very driven, very ambitious, very hard-working man - in some ways, you could say ruthless as well. And, you know, it's the interplay of those two sides of him that are so interesting to explore.
DAVIES: This is FRESH AIR. I'm Dave Davies, in for Terry Gross. We're speaking with British actor Michael Sheen. He's currently starring in the Showtime series "Masters of Sex," about groundbreaking sex researchers William Masters and Virginia Johnson. Among his other films are "The Queen," in which he played Prime Minister Tony Blair and "Frost/Nixon," in which he plays journalist David Frost, confronting Richard Nixon about Watergate.
Well, I wanted to talk about the film "The Damned United," the 2009 film directed by Tom Hooper. I just love this film, and I wanted to bring it up partly so more American audiences will find it. It's about a British soccer figure. Explain to us who your character Brian Clough was. He's a real guy.
SHEEN: Well, similar to David Frost, in a way, they were contemporaries. When I was growing up, Brian Clough was one of the biggest larger-than-life characters in the whole of British culture. He was a soccer manager - or coach, I think people would refer to them over here. He, a number of times, worked with teams that were languishing at the bottom of the very minor divisions, and through sheer force of personality, would lead them into becoming championship-winning teams. And he had such an extraordinary personality and was so unpredictable and so controversy over ended such extraordinary things and had such massive contradictions within his character, that he exerted this kind of influence over a group of men. And the problem within our story comes when the other soccer coach, who's the biggest soccer coach in Britain at the time, with the most successful team - a man called Don Revie, leading a team called Leeds United - Clough has said such awful things about him and awful things about his team, for the main team. And then Clough gets offered the job of being the manager of that team after Don Revie leaves. And...
DAVIES: Well, let me break in right there, because that's a clip that we have, where...
SHEEN: Right.
DAVIES: ...you have just taken the job - you, as Brian Clough - as the manager of Leeds United, having proved yourself a remarkable manager, a coach elsewhere. And now you're taking over this group of stars who've had championships in their past. And let's listen to your first discussion with the players.
SHEEN: (as Brian Clough) You lot may all be internationals and have won all the domestic honors there are to win under Don Revie. But as far as I'm concerned, the first thing you can do for me is to chuck all your medals and all your caps and all your pots and all your pans into the biggest (bleep) dustbin you can find, because you've never won any of them fairly. You've done it all by bloody cheating.
(as Brian Clough) Mr. William Bremner, you're the captain, and a good one. But you're no good to the team and no good to me if you're suspended. I want you fit for every game. And I want good, clean, attractive football from my captain starting next week at the Charity Shield. And you, Irishman. God gave you skill, intelligence and the best passing ability in the game. What God did not give you was six studs to wrap around another player's knee.
(as Brian Clough) Now, things are gonna be a little different around here without Don. Might feel a little strange at first. Might pinch a little, like a new pair of shoes. But if you want your grandchildren to remember you as being something other than the dirty buggers you once were. If you wanna be loved as real champions, worthy champions, you're gonna have to work and improve and change.
DAVIES: Hello, coach.
DAVIES: I just love that scene. That is our guest Michael Sheen in the film, "The Damned United." You know, I know from reading about you that you were quite the soccer player as a young man. In fact, at age 12, you had a shot at going to a professional team. And your dad said no, we're not going to move to London so you can do that.
SHEEN: Yeah.
DAVIES: And you went to acting, obviously, had great success at it. But you clearly were an athlete when you were younger, and there is a moment in this film, near this one, where you're standing in front of the new players at Leeds, and you do a little soccer stuff. Will you tell us about filming that, and the moves that you put on?
SHEEN: Yeah. Well, it's true. I was - that was my obsession, was soccer, when I was growing up. So I did a lot of it. And then, of course, when I started to get a modicum of success as an actor, everyone would always ask about it. And I suppose, in some ways made the mistake of saying that I was offered a place at a professional team and so this became part of, you know, the publicity about me. So then when I actually came to do a film about a soccer player, of course, everyone was just waiting to watch whether I could actually do it or not. And so the day that we did that scene that we heard the clip from, after he does that speech and he's just, you know, made these men just so angry at him and he's so cocky and he's so full of himself, and at the end of it, he just, he gets one of the players to kick the ball over to him and he sort of does keep up, where you sort of keep volleying and keeping it up on your head and your knee and your shoulders and all that kind of stuff, and then turns around and then kicks it and hits it into the top of the net. That's in the script. So the day we shot that film, the pressure was enormous. I couldn't believe it. I thought this is where it's all going to come tumbling down and people are going to go, you're a liar. You were never any good. First take, back in the net. Oh, yes.
SHEEN: And it's there as evidence on those film cameras.
DAVIES: I know that you grew up in Wales, a town called Port Talbot. Tell us a bit about growing up in Port Talbot. It was a coastal city in Wales. Tell us about what your parents did, what kind of childhood you had.
SHEEN: Well, it's not a city. It's a town. It has sort of between I guess about 35, 40,000 people. It's on the coast, yes. It's an old steel town. It's sort of built up around a steelworks, and there was also a chemical plant there for long time, growing up. So, the town itself is known in the area, really, for being sort of a joke. It was the dirty, sort of industrial smelly place in amongst quite beautiful rural areas on either side. So growing up in the town, it was a town that had very low self-esteem. There was high unemployment once the people started getting laid off at the steelworks, the chemical plant closed down. It's a working-class town. It was quite rough. I grew up in a sort of atmosphere of latent violence most of the time. But it was a place that, you know, my family had grown up in and come from for generations. And I sort of - I don't know. It sort of instilled a passionate love of this place, and partly an aesthetic, as well. I found out years and years later that a hero of mine, Terry Gilliam, got the idea for the film "Brazil," from actually being on the beach in Port Talbot. He told me...
DAVIES: Wow.
SHEEN: ...that he was scouting for another film that he did, "Time Bandits," which he shot some of in Wales. But when he was scouting for it and he went down onto the beach, he was sitting there on the beach, in a deck chair with steelworks on one side with flames coming out and huge, monstrous kind of metal cylinders and things, and on the other side of him, this chemical plant with orange smoke belching out of cooling towers. And he said, in his head, he just heard (humming). And that was when he got the idea for "Brazil."
DAVIES: Wow.
SHEEN: So you get a sense of what the place looks like from that, really.
DAVIES: And, you know, your parents were not in show business, obviously. But did you have a grandmother who was a lion tamer? Did I read this...
SHEEN: Yes. Well, this was - yeah, this was the family folklore, and, you know, I think there's all kinds of myths that grow up within families, aren't there. I'm not quite sure.
DAVIES: Well, mention that, and then your dad's work.
SHEEN: Well. Sure. Yeah. Well, yeah. I ended up doing one of those programs where they do your genealogy, you know, and look into your family history, and it turned out that it was actually true. My great-great-great grandmother was an elephant and lion tamer, and whose left breast was mauled off by one of the lions, and the claw from that lion is around a chain in my house as we speak, supposedly. And then - it takes a while before you find anything anywhere near as outlandish as that in the family. But then my father, who had had various sort of normal jobs for most of his life, at a certain point, became a Jack Nicholson look-alike and spent his happiest working years going all over the world being a Jack Nicholson look-alike.
DAVIES: And he does the voice and everything?
SHEEN: He has a go. I won't say - well, what I usually say is that what he lacks in specificity, he makes up for in commitment.
DAVIES: I have to ask you about one other thing, an appearance you made in several episodes of the NBC comedy "30 Rock," where you play this character, is it Wesley Snipes? Do I have the right name?
SHEEN: It is the one and only Wesley Snipes.
DAVIES: And he and Liz Lemon, who is played by Tina Fey, have this reason to believe that they might be meant for one another, so they get together a few times, and it really goes badly and they don't particularly like each other. But they keep running into each other. And in the scene we're about to hear, there's this - another bizarre chance encounter where she's standing on the sidewalk and you, as Wesley Snipes, are on a bicycle about to - and you crash into a taxi, and then a conversation ensues. Let's listen.
SHEEN: (as Wesley Snipes) Gangway for foot cycle!
(CRASHING SOUNDS) Come on. I said gangway for the - you witch.
TINA FEY: (as Liz Lemon) No. No. I am walking away.
DAVIES: (as Wesley Snipes) Wait, Liz. Wait. Look, I wasn't even supposed to ride my foot cycle home today.
FEY: (as Liz Lemon) Stop calling it that.
SHEEN: (as Wesley Snipes) Yeah, fine, my velocipede. But I did ride it, because the universe wanted me to run into you again, and I finally think I know why.
FEY: (as Liz Lemon) Commencing eye-roll sequence.
SHEEN: (as Wesley Snipes) The universe wants us to settle for one another. Well, there has to be a reason this keeps happening to us, Liz. I think fate is telling us this is the best we're ever going to get. We're each other's settling soulmates.
FEY: (as Liz Lemon) Settling soulmates. That is grim. And I've played Monopoly alone.
SHEEN: (as Wesley Snipes) Well, I know it's not ideal, but we both benefit. And I could open jars and kill bugs for you, and you could make me look less gay at work functions.
DAVIES: And that's our guest Michael Sheen and Tina Fey on "30 Rock." Do you want to just tell us a little bit about what it was like to be on this American comedy, working with Tina Fey and that crew?
SHEEN: Well, it's, yeah, it's extraordinary. It's happened to me a couple of times, where I've been a huge fan of something, and then get the opportunity to actually be in it. It happened with a show in Britain as well, called "The League of Gentlemen," which I was a huge fan of. And so, again, similar with "30 Rock," I was such a huge fan of it. I loved the show, and then suddenly found myself in it, talking to Liz Lemon and talking to these characters, which is a very peculiar experience - also quite intimidating, because, you know, talk about ensembles, they're a crack ensemble, you know, and...
DAVIES: Right.
SHEEN: ...so smart and so in the groove of what they're doing. So to walk into that was a little intimidating. But what was great is that Tina starts to kind of write for you as you start working with her, which was a little disturbing as my character got more and more bizarre and weird and outlandish the more she actually knew me. But it was just such great fun and so wonderful to do.
DAVIES: Michael Sheen, thanks so much for speaking with us.
SHEEN: Pleasure. Thank you.
DAVIES: Michael Sheen stars in the Showtime series "Masters of Sex." The final episode airs Sunday night at 10.

The case concerned the retention by the UK authorities of the applicants' fingerprints, cellular samples and DNA profiles after criminal proceedings against them were terminated by an acquittal and were discontinued respectively. The European Court of Human Rights in one its most important decisions found a violation of article 8 (right to respect for private and family life) of the European Convention on Human Rights. The Court in summary stated that:
"The Court observes that the protection afforded by Article 8 of the Convention would be unacceptably weakened if the use of modern scientific techniques in the criminal-justice system were allowed at any cost and without carefully balancing the potential benefits of the extensive use of such techniques against important private-life interests. In the Court's view, the strong consensus existing among the Contracting States in this respect is of considerable importance and narrows the margin of appreciation left to the respondent State in the assessment of the permissible limits of the interference with private life in this sphere. The Court considers that any State claiming a pioneer role in the development of new technologies bears special responsibility for striking the right balance in this regard."

S. AND MARPER v. THE UNITED KINGDOM
The European Court of Human Rights has today delivered at a public hearing its Grand Chamber judgment1 in the case of S. and Marper v. the United Kingdom (application nos. 30562/04 and 30566/04).
The Court held unanimously that:
· there had been a violation of Article 8 (right to respect for private and family life) of the European Convention on Human Rights;
· it was not necessary to examine separately the complaint under Article 14 (prohibition of discrimination) of the Convention.
Under Article 41 (just satisfaction), the Court considered that the finding of a violation, with the consequences that this would have for the future, could be regarded as constituting sufficient just satisfaction in respect of the non-pecuniary damage sustained by the applicants. It noted that, in accordance with Article 46 of the Convention, it would be for the respondent State to implement, under the supervision of the Committee of Ministers, appropriate general and/or individual measures to fulfil its obligations to secure the right of the applicants and other persons in their position to respect for their private life. The Court awarded the applicants 42,000 euros (EUR) in respect of costs and expenses, less the EUR 2,613.07 already paid to them in legal aid. (The judgment is available in English and French.)
1. Principal facts
The applicants, S. and Michael Marper, are both British nationals, who were born in 1989 and 1963 respectively. They live in Sheffield, the United Kingdom.
The case concerned the retention by the authorities of the applicants' fingerprints, cellular samples and DNA profiles after criminal proceedings against them were terminated by an acquittal and were discontinued respectively.
On 19 January 2001 S. was arrested and charged with attempted robbery. He was aged eleven at the time. His fingerprints and DNA samples2 were taken. He was acquitted on 14 June 2001. Mr Marper was arrested on 13 March 2001 and charged with harassment of his partner. His fingerprints and DNA samples were taken. On 14 June 2001 the case was formally discontinued as he and his partner had become reconciled.
Once the proceedings had been terminated, both applicants unsuccessfully requested that their fingerprints, DNA samples and profiles be destroyed. The information had been stored on the basis of a law authorising its retention without limit of time.
2. Procedure and composition of the Court
The application was lodged with the European Court of Human Rights on 16 August 2004 and declared admissible on 16 January 2007. The Chamber to which the case was assigned decided to relinquish jurisdiction to the Grand Chamber on 10 July 20073.
The National Council for Civil Liberties and Privacy International were granted leave to intervene in the written procedure before the Grand Chamber.
A public hearing took place in the Human Rights building, Strasbourg, on 27 February 2008.
The judgment was given by the Grand Chamber of 17 judges, composed as follows:
Jean-Paul Costa (France), President,
Christos Rozakis (Greece),
Nicolas Bratza (United Kingdom),
Peer Lorenzen (Denmark),
Françoise Tulkens (Belgium),
Josep Casadevall (Andorra),
Giovanni Bonello (Malta)
Corneliu Bîrsan (Romania),
Nina Vajić (Croatia),
Anatoly Kovler (Russia),
Stanislav Pavlovschi (Moldova),
Egbert Myjer (Netherlands),
Danutė Jočienė (Lithuania),
Ján Šikuta (Slovakia),
Mark Villiger (Switzerland)4,
Päivi Hirvelä (Finland),
Ledi Bianku (Albania), judges,
and also Michael O'Boyle, Deputy Registrar.
3. Summary of the judgment5
The applicants complained under Articles 8 and 14 of the Convention about the retention by the authorities of their fingerprints, cellular samples and DNA profiles after their acquittal or discharge.
Decision of the Court
Article 8
The Court noted that cellular samples contained much sensitive information about an individual, including information about his or her health. In addition, samples contained a unique genetic code of great relevance to both the individual concerned and his or her relatives. Given the nature and the amount of personal information contained in cellular samples, their retention per se had to be regarded as interfering with the right to respect for the private lives of the individuals concerned.
In the Court's view, the capacity of DNA profiles to provide a means of identifying genetic relationships between individuals was in itself sufficient to conclude that their retention interfered with the right to the private life of those individuals. The possibility created by DNA profiles for drawing inferences about ethnic origin made their retention all the more sensitive and susceptible of affecting the right to private life.
The Court concluded that the retention of both cellular samples and DNA profiles amounted to an interference with the applicants' right to respect for their private lives, within the meaning of Article 8 § 1 of the Convention.
The applicants' fingerprints were taken in the context of criminal proceedings and subsequently recorded on a nationwide database with the aim of being permanently kept and regularly processed by automated means for criminal-identification purposes. It was accepted that, because of the information they contain, the retention of cellular samples and DNA profiles had a more important impact on private life than the retention of fingerprints. However, the Court considered that fingerprints contain unique information about the individual concerned and their retention without his or her consent cannot be regarded as neutral or insignificant. The retention of fingerprints may thus in itself give rise to important private-life concerns and accordingly constituted an interference with the right to respect for private life.
The Court noted that, under section 64 of the 1984 Act, the fingerprints or samples taken from a person in connection with the investigation of an offence could be retained after they had fulfilled the purposes for which they were taken. The retention of the applicants' fingerprint, biological samples and DNA profiles thus had a clear basis in the domestic law.
At the same time, Section 64 was far less precise as to the conditions attached to and arrangements for the storing and use of this personal information.
The Court reiterated that, in this context, it was essential to have clear, detailed rules governing the scope and application of measures, as well as minimum safeguards. However, in view of its analysis and conclusions as to whether the interference was necessary in a democratic society, the Court did not find it necessary to decide whether the wording of section 64 met the "quality of law" requirements within the meaning of Article 8 § 2 of the Convention.
The Court accepted that the retention of fingerprint and DNA information pursued a legitimate purpose, namely the detection, and therefore, prevention of crime.
The Court noted that fingerprints, DNA profiles and cellular samples constituted personal data within the meaning of the Council of Europe Convention of 1981 for the protection of individuals with regard to automatic processing of personal data.
The Court indicated that the domestic law had to afford appropriate safeguards to prevent any such use of personal data as could be inconsistent with the guarantees of Article 8 of the Convention. The Court added that the need for such safeguards was all the greater where the protection of personal data undergoing automatic processing was concerned, not least when such data were used for police purposes.
The interests of the individuals concerned and the community as a whole in protecting personal data, including fingerprint and DNA information, could be outweighed by the legitimate interest in the prevention of crime (the Court referred to Article 9 of the Data Protection Convention). However, the intrinsically private character of this information required the Court to exercise careful scrutiny of any State measure authorising its retention and use by the authorities without the consent of the person concerned.
The issue to be considered by the Court in this case was whether the retention of the fingerprint and DNA data of the applicants, as persons who had been suspected, but not convicted, of certain criminal offences, was necessary in a democratic society.
The Court took due account of the core principles of the relevant instruments of the Council of Europe and the law and practice of the other Contracting States, according to which retention of data was to be proportionate in relation to the purpose of collection and limited in time. These principles had been consistently applied by the Contracting States in the police sector, in accordance with the 1981 Data Protection Convention and subsequent Recommendations by the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe.
As regards, more particularly, cellular samples, most of the Contracting States allowed these materials to be taken in criminal proceedings only from individuals suspected of having committed offences of a certain minimum gravity. In the great majority of the Contracting States with functioning DNA databases, samples and DNA profiles derived from those samples were required to be removed or destroyed either immediately or within a certain limited time after acquittal or discharge. A restricted number of exceptions to this principle were allowed by some Contracting States.
The Court noted that England, Wales and Northern Ireland appeared to be the only jurisdictions within the Council of Europe to allow the indefinite retention of fingerprint and DNA material of any person of any age suspected of any recordable offence.
It observed that the protection afforded by Article 8 of the Convention would be unacceptably weakened if the use of modern scientific techniques in the criminal-justice system were allowed at any cost and without carefully balancing the potential benefits of the extensive use of such techniques against important private-life interests. Any State claiming a pioneer role in the development of new technologies bore special responsibility for striking the right balance in this regard.
The Court was struck by the blanket and indiscriminate nature of the power of retention in England and Wales. In particular, the data in question could be retained irrespective of the nature or gravity of the offence with which the individual was originally suspected or of the age of the suspected offender; the retention was not time-limited; and there existed only limited possibilities for an acquitted individual to have the data removed from the nationwide database or to have the materials destroyed.
The Court expressed a particular concern at the risk of stigmatisation, stemming from the fact that persons in the position of the applicants, who had not been convicted of any offence and were entitled to the presumption of innocence, were treated in the same way as convicted persons. It was true that the retention of the applicants' private data could not be equated with the voicing of suspicions. Nonetheless, their perception that they were not being treated as innocent was heightened by the fact that their data were retained indefinitely in the same way as the data of convicted persons, while the data of those who had never been suspected of an offence were required to be destroyed.
The Court further considered that the retention of unconvicted persons' data could be especially harmful in the case of minors such as the first applicant, given their special situation and the importance of their development and integration in society. It considered that particular attention had to be paid to the protection of juveniles from any detriment that could result from the retention by the authorities of their private data following acquittals of a criminal offence.
In conclusion, the Court found that the blanket and indiscriminate nature of the powers of retention of the fingerprints, cellular samples and DNA profiles of persons suspected but not convicted of offences, as applied in the case of the present applicants, failed to strike a fair balance between the competing public and private interests, and that the respondent State had overstepped any acceptable margin of appreciation in this regard. Accordingly, the retention in question constituted a disproportionate interference with the applicants' right to respect for private life and could not be regarded as necessary in a democratic society. The Court concluded unanimously that there had been a violation of Article 8 in this case.
Article 14 in conjunction with Article 8
In the light of the reasoning that led to its conclusion under Article 8 above, the Court considered unanimously that it was not necessary to examine separately the complaint under Article 14.

We Voted for Trump to Save the Country the Bush Family Represents
CALLER: Hi, Rush. How are you? Mega dittos, 1991 dittos. You know, with the Bush funeral, I've had a real hard time, you know, kind of feeling my normal grief or normal respect for him. I respect him. I think he was a fantastic man. But given how cynical I've become on so many things and sort of his lack of fighting back and what the Republicans have done over the last 40 years, I find it really hard now to have as much, you know, respect or grief. It's certainly like, you know, I didn't feel like the way I did when Reagan passed.
It kind of troubles me, but I think it ties into where we're at today. I think it ties into Trump. You know, and I almost hold -- I don't identify as a Republican anymore, but I almost hold them more responsible than the liberals. Liberals are what they are. We know we're not gonna get anything from them. When I call my congressman on the right, you know, Republicans, and you get basically the same treatment from the liberals, there's no fighting back, you know, George H. W. Bush, George W. Bush, I mean --
RUSH: Well, see, wait. Let me stop you because this is exactly what's being praised. And this is what's phony about it. They're praising the Bushes both for not fighting back, basically allow the left to steamroll. Bush changed his --
CALLER: Exactly.
RUSH: -- take on taxes. That's what they're praising as bipartisanship. That's what they're praising as an era gone by, when we could work with Republicans, when Republicans agreed to lose, when Republicans agreed to let us win. That isn't Trump. And I'll go so far, I think what you're trying to say -- and correct me if I'm wrong, but I think what you're trying to say is that, in truth, the reluctance of not just the Bushes -- there's a lot of Republican elected people that didn't want to fight back 'cause they're scared to death of the media. Didn't to want fight back against Obama because they're scared of being charged racist. And that lack, that reluctance is what gave us Trump.
CALLER: Precisely.
RUSH: There you go.
CALLER: 110 percent. That's the full draw-out of that for me. And that's what they still don't get about why we support Trump. I don't always agree with everything he does, again, we can go into that nonsense, but again, when I talk to people, I take him and his fight and his support of us and trying to do what's right and taking it to the other side and trying to accomplish these things over the lay down and die and let them run over us.
So, you know, I'll take the good with the bad, right? And to me, the past 40 years, what have Republicans solved? George Bush was a good, decent man, yes. But what did he really get done? What did we really benefit from it? And so at some point I get kind of tired of supporting that when I really don't ever get any payoff for it.
RUSH: This is precisely why I have been trying to stress that what we have been seeing today is not the way our politics used to be. It's the way the left wants it to be, but it's never been this way. The Bush family, the Bush values, the traditions, virtues, whatever you want to call them that defined them and governed their philosophies of life is what we're seeing.
And my point is that that that we're seeing used to define the whole country or the vast, vast majority of it. And it's important to know that's what's been lost, the virtues, the values, the manners, what have you, that people are watching in this funeral are what used to be the norm. And we've lost them. And not because of Donald Trump. We have lost them because there was a war raged against them, waged against them beginning in the late eighties or the early nineties.
I could even peg it, if you wanted to put militant feminism in this mix, which you can, it's clearly one of the many ingredients of the culture war, you have to go back to the late sixties for that. The attack on America, as founded, has been ongoing since then. But the real intense version has been within many of our lifetimes. And here's the thing that people in Washington, both parties, refuse to understand. This isn't a political skirmish over the budget. It's not a political skirmish over how many more years we're gonna have Social Security.
People who voted for Donald Trump genuinely believed their country as founded was at stake. When those are the stakes, it doesn't matter that your guy defending you may have manners on Twitter that are not recommendable. It doesn't matter. What matters is saving the country from the marauders on the left who want to basically erase every vestige of our founding and turn this country over to people for whom it was never intended. And in that kind of a battle with that on the line -- but Washington doesn't see that crisis. Republicans, Democrats, there isn't any kind of crisis. It's the average political arguments of the day. They come and go. That's the great divide.

Let Them Eat Art!: The 21c Public/Private Partnership
By Danny Mayer
North of Center
In April, marital partners Laura Lee Brown and Steve Wilson, founding owners of Louisville-based boutique hotel franchise 21c, held a press conference under the pavilion at Cheapside Park to announce their $36 million purchase and renovation plans for Lexington's 15-story First National Building, the city's first skyscraper. Along with a pair of smaller adjoining buildings, Wilson told a crowd of local leaders gathered for the occasion, the iconic downtown structure would become the fourth 21c Museum Hotels franchise location. "This is a combination hotel and a real art museum. It is not art for decoration," Wilson said. "The 21c Museum is the only museum in the country dedicated to collecting and exhibiting contemporary art by living artists."
Local talk of the renovation has tracked city leader and 21c talking points, which have focused on aesthetics and downtown revitalization. But whatever its aesthetic value or ability to inspire a new urban "confidence," 21c's economic foundation comes straight out of the past two decades: a public/private partnership in finance in which the public assumes collateral and risk and the private owners reap the returns. Of the $36.5 million needed to purchase, renovate and open 21c as a boutique hotel with an attached modern public art museum, over 60 percent of it ($22.5 million) will come from tapping public funds at the city, state and federal levels, much of it through programs geared toward low- and moderate-income citizens.
If you want to see the democratic/economic policies pillaging the nation and globe writ devastatingly small, look no further than 21c. Here's three themes that should be familiar to you.
