Homemade Black Bean Veggie Burgers
This is my version of a dish my mom makes that, I believe, is a variation of a Dutch Indonesian dish called Bami Goreng. This makes a lot of food that you may have trouble NOT overeating! It sounds like an odd combination but it is so good that everyone I have introduced to it has loved it! I add soy sauce or Pickapeppa Sauce at the table, depending on my mood. ;-) Enjoy!

Anyways back on topic, roots last way WAY too long. A cc chain against a melee is easier to set up and a helluvalot longer than one you can set up for ranged simply because roots utterly shut them down, last long as fuck and usually cannot be dispelled because of the 8 second cd going to other uses.
There's too many effects keeping melee down. This is one of the ones that should have been nerfed/removed a long LONG time ago and instead has become worse and worse every single expansion.

Public Agency Adoption is also known as foster care adoption. The finalization of the adoption is subjective as it is based solely on the attitudes of the state and public agency involved. The court will always make their decision based on what is in the best interest of the child.
Agency Adoptions are adoptions that are facilitated with the help of an adoption agency. Each adoption agency has it's own attitudes and policies regarding gay and lesbian adoptions.
Independent adoption is an adoption where the birth parent selects the family to place her child with and directly places the child with that family. These types of adoptions require an attorney and an adoption service provider to facilitate the adoption.
International Adoption is an adoption where a child is adopted from abroad. International Adoption is governed both by the laws of the country in which the child lives in and also the country where the adoptive parents live. This option is increasingly difficult because it means finding an agency willing to work with gay and lesbians and also finding a foreign country willing to place a child in an alternative family. Many countries are not accepting of gay and lesbian adoptions, based on their cultural or religious standards and what they feel is best for the children of that country.

Taking the plunge to have a family can be an exciting, and somewhat daunting prospect. However, the natural instinct for most human beings is to pro-create (as it is with any species of animal). When you have children, your maternal or paternal instinct will "kick in" to the point where you would lay down your life for your youngsters.
However, I'm not here to teach you how to "suck eggs" in terms of how protective you are of your family. I'm here to give you some information on how you can help educate your child. School is an obvious one, every child will attend school, but you can also help them when they're not in the classroom.
A bedtime story is something most parents will do for their children and we all know the reason why you will do this don't we? At the end of a long day, you will want to know that you can help your child to drift off to sleep so you can have a bit of relaxation time. However, this shouldn't be the only reason you will open your child to the world of stories, and books.
Interactive books for children are fast becoming one of the most popular ways to educate a child outside of school. You may think this will just help them become more advanced at reading, or help them to extend their vocabulary but, there are other more subtle things a book like this will teach your child.
Decision making skills are something every person needs in life, and if you can teach your child to make the right decisions, it's likely they'll make fewer mistakes when they get older. Interactive books for kids will not only bring a story to life, they also have a very clever way of teaching a child to make a decision.
Say for instance they reach a turning point in a story. For example, the hero has to decide if he will either make a jump across a ravine that's impossible, or take the long way round. Your child will have control over this decision, and they will also see the outcome. This will teach your child something that's highly important in life.
When they see that the hero doesn't make the jump, and has to start the story again, the next time, they'll make the right decision (hopefully). These books can be as simple or as complicated as you like. For very young children who are just starting out in the world of reading, it is possible to have a very easy story-line that only includes perhaps, one decision to make.
Once your child becomes more adept at it, you can introduce them to interactive books for children that have a more complicated story-line with many decisions to make. The fact is these books have interesting graphics, voice-overs that will read to your child, and a broad range of different subjects to choose from. They will teach your child the art of reading, and the best thing of all is your children won't even know they're being educated!

I haven't read much of Sarah Vowell's stuff in the past. I picked up Assassination Vacation over the summer when I was in a really heavy essay phase, and I enjoyed it well enough. But it wasn't enough to get me to go hear her talk at ALA Annual this past summer, and I didn't exactly rush out to read this the moment it came out. I guess I thought I mostly just didn't care about the subject and that it wouldn't have anything to say to me.
Well, this was before I like a good chunk of the country became obsessed with the Hamilton cast album. But since we have and since we did, my interest in the Marquis de Lafayette has increased by a large margin. So I picked up this book from the new shelf at the library where I work as I was headed out the door for Christmas vacation. And because I thought it would be a humorous light read like Assassination Vacation, I went ahead and picked up as a nonfiction palette cleanser after finishing the phenomenal Vicious.
First off, this book isn't essays, and it doesn't have chapters. How am I supposed to deal with this? I never quite knew when I could put it down. Second, because I picked up the book just because it was Sarah Vowell, I didn't realize it was a biography. Which is fine. I just don't read a lot of biographies.
Where this book shines is in giving a much-overlooked French perspective to the American Revolution. First off, however bad off you think the Continental Army was, they were way worse off. They perennially did not have enough shoes, clothes, or food to go around. It reminded me how close the American Revolution and the Seven Years War were to each other in time and how, geopolitically speaking, the American Revolution was really a skirmish between two superpowers that had actively hated each other for centuries. The birth of America was practically collateral damage.
Then there are tidbits about how we Americans were not quite the masters of our fate that we always suppose ourselves to be. At the fall of Yorktown (which I've always assumed was in New York because it has York but is totally in Virginia), there were twice as many French soldiers there as Americans. And that made it especially classy when the British tried to surrender to the French and the French made them surrender to the Americans because while it was America's war, the French totally ruled the day. But even before Yorktown happened, there was the naval Battle of the Chesapeake that paved the way for the Yorktown victory. And who was fighting? France and Britain. Because Lord knows we didn't have a navy. When Vowell is exploring these sorts of things, the book has a compelling interest that keeps things moving.
Now, my favorite parts of the book are when she fast-forwards to the present and talks about exploring for Lafayette related monuments or sightseeing and talking to re-enactors and seeing how things are remembered in the present day. But these instances have a bit of distance between them in the book, and I was always left wishing that they were a bit longer and that I could learn more about that quest rather than the young Lafayette's hunt for glory. Oh, and it struck me as odd that even though this was America-centric look at Lafayette, it barely touched on his life post-Revolution, only painting it in the broadest of strokes. He lived to a ripe old age, but it seems that he had a lot more adventures that potentially could have been included. But maybe it's outside the scope of the book. What do I know.
But the principal problem with this book doesn't really have anything to do with this book. It more has to do with the fact that I am just not that interested in American history. I never have been. Maybe it's because I have uniquely bad classes in the subject. Maybe it's because I like my history like I like my cheese: with a little bit of depth and age. Maybe it's just because I find other countries more exciting. But the subject has never done a lot for me, and this remains true with Vowell's book. While it certainly added to my store of knowledge and gave me a new perspective on the war, it hasn't inspired me to delve any deeper into the subject.

One of the big questions during last year's National Football League playoffs was whether Tony Dungy of the Indianapolis Colts and Lovie Smith of the Chicago Bears would make it to the final game.
It was the stuff of headlines. After all, it would make history if two African-American head coaches reached the Super Bowl. However, both men went out of their way to stress that it was also symbolic that two devout Christians were poised to compete, as friends, on their sport's biggest stage.
"I'm so happy for Lovie, who does things the right way, without cursing and shows that things can be done differently," said Dungy, in a pre-game report by Baptist Press. "We give God all the credit."
Dungy and Smith talked the talk and tried to walk the walk, while armies of mainstream journalists responded by ignoring most of the Godtalk.
Sportswriters never know quite what to do when athletes and coaches turn into preachers and evangelists. It's an old tension, one that been around since the birth of what historians call "muscular Christianity" in mid-19th century Victorian England.
Then, in the early 20th century, the "flying Scotsman" Eric Liddell proved that — with the right blend of skill and charisma — a superstar athlete could hold his own in the pulpit. The Olympic champion, whose story was later told in the Academy Award winning movie Chariots of Fire, inspired legions of athletes to dare to be evangelists, especially in youth rallies organized by Athletes in Action, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and similar groups.
So what are journalists supposed to do when gridiron giants start holding hands and forming prayer circles at midfield? It's one thing to point in thanksgiving toward heaven after a touchdown. Most journalists think it's something else to mention Jesus Christ a dozen times a minute on live television.
Take, for example, Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow of Florida. The first words he uttered in his nervous acceptance speech was: "I'd just like to first start off by thanking my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ who gave me the ability to play football."
This quotation didn't appear in any mainstream news reports, wrote sportswriter Kathy Orton at WashingtonPost.com. Her "On Faith" column ran with this blunt headline: "Tebow Talks God, Media Ignores Him."
Orton noted that columnist Michael Wilbon offered this explanation for why journalists ignored Tebow's testimony.
"People are entitled to express their religious beliefs whenever and wherever," said Wilbon, known for his work with the Post and ESPN. "But a newspaper (or network) has an obligation to serve a community of people that have all kinds of religious beliefs. … There are times when we explore the relationship of competition and spirituality … but I know I'm not going to be hijacked by those feelings, to let someone preach their beliefs when they're not important to what's going on."
In other words, one person's bold "evangelism" is another's pushy "proselytizing."
There are also political implications lurking in the background, in an age in which recent U.S. elections — decided by razor-thin margins — have pivoted on moral and religious issues. Thus, it was controversial when the late Rev. Reggie White and other black superstars began speaking out on issues of marriage, family and sexuality. Dungy has made similar, but more graceful, remarks rejecting same-sex unions.
Finally, any mixture of rhetoric and hypocrisy is sure to repel many sportswriters who study locker room realities year after year. After all, it was quarterback Michael Vick who — when facing jail time — suddenly announced that "through this situation I found Jesus and asked him for forgiveness and turned my life over to God. … I will redeem myself. I have to."
Nevertheless, Orton has decided that her colleagues need to realize that faith is a crucial element in many dramas and, thus, it's wrong to edit that out of the new. It's appropriate to ask an athlete like Tebow hard questions and then quote his answers.
"I've also seen plenty of athletes who say one thing and do another, and it's hard for me to be anything but skeptical," she said. "Maybe that is why so many sportswriters shy away from writing about religion. Because the moment we do, it comes back to haunt us when that athlete is discovered to be less than a man (or woman) of God."

What does res publica mean?
Definitions for res publica
Here are all the possible meanings and translations of the word res publica.
Princeton's WordNet
state, nation, country, land, commonwealth, res publica, body politic(noun)
a politically organized body of people under a single government
"the state has elected a new president"; "African nations"; "students who had come to the nation's capitol"; "the country's largest manufacturer"; "an industrialized land"
res publica(Noun)
The common good, as identified with the wider state; the commonwealth, the body politic.
Origin: From res publica. Compare republic.
Res publica
Res publica is a Latin phrase, loosely meaning "public affair". It is the root of the word republic, and the word commonwealth has traditionally been used as a synonym for it; however translations vary widely according to the context. "Res" is a nominative singular Latin noun for a substantive or concrete thing – as opposed to "spes", which means something unreal or ethereal – and "publica" is an attributive adjective meaning "of and/or pertaining to the state or the public". Hence a literal translation is, "the public thing/affair".

Patriots survive late
Brown misses 50-yard FG as New England beats San Diego
Published 12:00 am, Monday, October 25, 2010
SAN DIEGO -- The San Diego Chargers blundered right down to the bitter end against Tom Brady and the New England Patriots.
Kris Brown's 50-yard field goal attempt smacked off the right upright with 23 seconds left, allowing the Patriots to escape with a 23-20 win over the mistake-prone Chargers on Sunday.
Seven games into what was supposed to be coach Norv Turner's best season, the Chargers continue to make mystifying errors. Although the Patriots gained only 38 yards in the first half, they led 13-3 at halftime because the Chargers had four turnovers.
So while New England (5-1) pulled into a tie with the idle New York Jets atop the AFC East, the four-time defending AFC West champion Chargers tumbled to 2-5, their worst start in four seasons under Turner. They're tied for last with Denver, 21/2 games behind the Kansas City Chiefs.
"I don't think we gave ourselves a chance," Turner said. "You do the things we did in the first half with the football and you're playing a real good team, it's tough. You're not going to win making these mistakes."
The Chargers, who trailed 20-3 heading into the fourth quarter, were in position to at least send it into overtime. They held New England to just 179 yards of offense.
Leading by 3 with two minutes left, New England gambled on fourth-and-1 from its 49, and BenJarvus Green-Ellis was stuffed for a 1-yard loss by Antwan Applewhite. Coach Bill Belichick had challenged the spot of the previous play and lost, costing him his final timeout. San Diego then moved to the 27.
Brown lined up to try a 45-yarder, but guard Louis Vasquez was whistled for a false start. Moved back 5 yards, Brown's attempt was long enough but hit the right upright. Brown was signed last week because Nate Kaeding has an injured groin.
"It just stayed down that hashmark. It just hit the upright," Brown said. "It's frustrating because I felt like I hit it pretty good. It just didn't go in."
New England's Vince Wilfork said it "played out how we wanted it to play out. We stayed onsides. They jumped. It moved them back 5 extra yards and it cost them the ballgame."
Stephen Gostkowski kicked field goals of 40, 35 and 35 yards for New England.
San Diego rallied for two touchdowns in the final 7:21. The Chargers got a 4-yard touchdown pass from Philip Rivers to Antonio Gates, and, after a successful onside kick, a 1-yard run by Mike Tolbert.
The Chargers, though, hurt themselves with four turnovers in the first half, leading to 10 points for the Patriots.
Two were mental blunders that the Patriots pounced on.
After making a 25-yard catch -- his first in the NFL -- and going down untouched by a defender, rookie receiver Richard Goodman left the ball on the ground, jumped up and applauded. New England safety James Sanders alertly picked up the ball. The Patriots failed to convert the gift.
Goodman said he thought the safety touched him. The Chargers were in hurry-up mode, and he said he was trying to get back to the huddle.
"I'll be the first one to admit that it was my fault," Goodman said. "I've got to learn from my mistakes. After making that catch, I've got to give it back to the ref."
The Chargers then drove to the New England 32. Rivers stepped up in the pocket, turned and threw a backward pass that glanced off fullback Jacob Hester's hands. Hester didn't go after it, apparently not realizing it was a lateral. Linebacker Rob Ninkovich did, returning it 63 yards before Rivers dragged him down at the 8. Turner challenged, but the play was upheld after review.

What it's about
The Digital Feature Film Production Programme is an exciting and innovative course that equips students with both creative and technological skills for future roles in digital film production and the creative industries.
Our philosophy is to nurture technical specialism and creative professionalism through research and practical production.
We aim to produce innovative thinkers that have the ability to create original film productions, enabled through a growing and enhanced understanding of digital technology.

What you do
The digital film-making component of the course studies the theory and practice of digital film-making and is designed to be extremely hands-on and practical. Students will produce a number of individual and group film based projects across a variety of modules, culminating in the production of a full feature-length film. These programmes are designed to contribute to a high quality portfolio of work upon graduation.
The Digital Feature Film Production Programme requires evidence of the ability to achieve advanced production standards. Supervisors with feature film production experience will assist students in achieving their aims of creating a full-length film. Students will clearly demonstrate their increased knowledge of technology and their understanding of feature film creation as well as marketing and distribution strategies. In order to achieve these outcomes, the degree is reliant on a production crew functioning as an autonomous and independent unit.
Your work throughout the duration of this programme will require a significant element of independent development and research, allied with group and individual project work as required. Along with your ongoing assignment work you will attend formal lectures offered by film academics, expert practioners, industry strategists and key figures from the world of film and broadcasting in Ireland and abroad.

Today's Celebrity X issue is a bit harder to guess then the previous ones.. I guess that you're not even sure if it's a boy or a girl 'cause of the hair and all. lol Well yeah, if I didn't know who it is I'd probably be wondering too. Ok, it's a boy.. and I'll give you a few hints that will get that doubt right out of your head.. His father was a truck driver and a drummer and he died of cancer when his son was only 10 years old. He was born in Oakland, California and was raised in Rodeo, California. His interest in music started at a young age. As a teenager he originally was into metal music, but got into punk after hearing the Sex Pistols song "Holidays in the Sun". He was the youngest of six children and he wrote the song "Wake Me Up When September Ends" as a memorial for his father. If you don't know who it is by now by now.. Well, you really should.. lol. Ok His last name is Armstrong and he is the front man of a punk band that has a certain color it's name.. The hexadecimal value of this colour is #0F7D19. Hahahah, lol, I'm sure that one helped!! Ok, just get inside the post and find out the answer..
Yes!!! It's Billie Joe Armstrong, he is born on February 17, 1972 and he is the lead vocalist, chief songwriter and guitarist for the rock band Green Day. Greeeeen (#0F7D19), lol. Ok enough with my stupid jokes. In 1987, Billie Joe formed a band "Sweet Children" with his childhood friend Mike Dirnt(also on guitar), John Kiffmeyer(Al Sobrante) on drums and Sean Hughes on bass. The next year Hughes left the band and Dirnt switched to bass so they became a tree peace band. They changed the name of the band to "Green day" in April 1989, supposedly "green" was their color of choice 'cause of their fondness of marijuana. This band produced lots af big hits some of which are "When I Come Around", "Basket Case" and "Jesus of Suburbia".

Would you agree that providing value to your customers whether internal and/or external is paramount?
And it's probably why your centre or division exists and why people have jobs but when it begun, were you clear on why you wanted it?
Do you know what it will be when it grows up and have you given it a red hot go?
The more you can appreciate the way your customers think or act, then you can design products and services that fix their problems but perhaps there have been changes in the external environment or market.
Often in medium to large organisations, management of your customer relationships is mostly centralised, perhaps within a contact centre structure.
Questions may arise like… is this best practice? Is this the right way to serve customers? Do the inputs and costs stack up against the outputs and performance? Is technology being maximised? Is this investment really worth it?
People across your organisation may have different ideas or views about performance and value, strengths and areas for improvement.
So what if you could use a proven approach that focuses on what is really important?
Well let me introduce you to the 5 Pillar Approach to review your contact centre or customer service division. Read More

TEL AVIV (Dec. 21)
Five houses in Gaza that served as terrorist bases have been blown up by Israeli security forces, it was announced today. A hand grenade thrown from one of the buildings last week seriously wounded an Israeli officer. A crowded bus was the target of a grenade hurled from another of the buildings. The inhabitants of the five buildings were evacuated with their belongings. Jerusalem police have located rocket launchers which fired Katyusha rockets yesterday at the heavily populated Katamon quarter. Helicopters spotted the weapons about two and a half miles from the center of the city. Security forces are searching for the perpetrators of the attack for which El Fatah has claimed credit. There were no casualties and only slight damage. A Nablus military court imposed sentences of from 30 months to six years on six members of an El Fatah cell convicted of possession of arms, training in the use of weapons and failure to prevent acts of sabotage of which they had advance knowledge. The defendants claimed that they had gotten together to form a soccer team.

Puppy: Lucy Ricardo
Friends: 4
Member Since: August 11, 2009Add to Friends
Lucy and her brother turned 1 year old June 1. My friends got her brother first and they worked me to have Lucy come to my life. I always say, Lucy chose me and I am so lucky. They came from North Dakota and I should say, they are happy to be in living in Southern Cal. Lucy has such wonderful personality and we are going to be trained to be a Therapy Dog. She is the sweet soul and attracts all types of people to her. I think part of her personality matches does match her name "Lucy Ricardo" and most is me as she's extremely social and loves company and wants to be out of the house playing 24/7. She's a real fun puppy and a blast to hang out with. Lucy does have OCD and she hates to step on grass, especially when it rains or wet grounds. She has a real difficulty with that and I am looking to find a way to train her to use the toilet. Lucy LOVES children. She is so sweet and just wants to play with them, if they don't talk to her, she has her own version of talking with them so they are forced to answer her back and play with her :) We'd love to be trained to go to Children's Hospitals to visit kids who are hospitalized. Lucy is wonderful soul and one that has been around for a longtime.View Profile

The Creation of the Hidden Within Thematic
I have been asked a lot lately about the creation of my Hidden Within thematic images. Let me share the major steps of the process with you.
To begin with, I took pictures of the bark of many California Sycamore trees. I looked for trees with colorful peeling patterns, and made sure, that my images were as sharp as possible.
After importing the raw images into Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4, I made some changes: digitally sharpened them, enhanced the colors and reduced any noise. Finally, I cropped any part of the picture out that was not tack sharp. Due to the curvature of the trees, the images usually had a narrow unsharp part on the sides.
Next, I opened my cropped image in Adobe Photoshop CS6. I also opened a new document with the desired final image size and a transparent background. From the Sycamore image I cropped a part that was one fourth of my final image (half the length and half the height). This is a trial by error step, where you don't know if you cropped at the right place until you move the piece into the final document, and see the result.
At this point, I moved this piece into my new document and dropped it in the top left corner. After flipping this quarter to the right, then flipping both to the bottom, I produced a double symmetrical image. My goal with the Hidden Within series was to create pictures with recognizable faces in them.
Sometimes, a face emerged right away. Other times, I found the eyes to be too far or too close to each other. In this case, I re-cropped the Sycamore image, and started the symmetry treatment again. Even a tiny little difference in the cropping made a huge difference in the image. Occasionally, instead of re-cropping, I just had to rotate the quarters by 90 or 180 degrees to arrive to a nice face.
When I was happy with the image, I enhanced it again with either built in or third party filters to bring out colors and textures, and to exaggerate the main subject of my image, the face.
The best part of the whole creation happened at the very end, when my almost nine year old daughter sat by me, and we started discovering lots of different faces and creatures in the new image together. I was also inspired to write brief stories about some of the characters living in my pictures. What a fun project!

So what does it take to get to top 5 of Google for New Zealand Immigration?
There is certainly more traffic for that phrase and its reverse "Immigration New Zealand" as compared to New Zealand Immigration Medicals which the NZimed is about.
So what about the following derivative phrases:
- NZ Immigration
- Immigration to New Zealand
- Immigration New Zealand Department - actually its part of the Department of Labour, but what immigrants know that? And how do you add that phrase onto a page
- INZ - Yes, thats what the Immigration NZ is also known as, why not target that!
- ...
It was interesting working on the website, and determining that the main page was in fact the home page, despite the number of pages on the website.
Yes, the inner pages will be progressively properly SEO'ed - for City name Doctors and City name Medical Centres, and Medical Insurance, ... but the volume of immigration traffic to those search phrases will be low.
Choice of Domain nameThe initial domain name used was www.nzimed.co.nz - but given that they want to rank for New Zealand Immigration Medicals, it was far better that they had the search phrase in the domain - Hence www.NZimmigrationMedical.co.nz. They will have to try a lot less hard in order to achieve great results.
SearchMasters as Advisor to DeveloperNZimed approached SearchMasters to act as an advisor for their website developers EyeTurner. A brainstorming meeting, several emails, and a continuing dialog for fine tuning have resulted in a website that is coming together nicely for SEO. But with a new domain, and a competitive market for the chosen search phrases will mean that its a slow road to the top 5, even with a good website.
All the best with your New Zealand Immigration Medicals website, NZimed. We look forward to helping you achieve top search results over time, and the resulting good traffic and successful business.

the game is fun and all but it gets repetitive and it takes long for me. I'm grinding out the last part of the game currently.
To gain all the quests does take time and I gotta agree it gets a bit grinding and repetitive but I still enjoyed working for them over a couple of days.
**** that last Cargo mission!
Hm speed race 4 is not unlocked but 5 is for me?
Hm speed race 4 is not unlocked but 5 is for me?
Once you get into space, you won't be unlocking the IV column unless you re-enter the atmosphere or purposefully complete the ones within the atmosphere.
You have to reach 1200 mph to get it. Not as hard as it sounds and I got the 5th mission before the 4th too.
Arkeyo: That was last last thing I struggled with
Now I have completed all achievements and all quests. At last!
why my quest even not added? I've bought 1 acc
Space Ace achievement is impossible...
[b]Hey this is a bit to challenging for me but what ever
how is this posible
You have the quest. You just needed to wait for it.
I got all In Game Achievements but did not get the perfectionist award
Perfectionist seems to have issues @sprsoldier96 but your profile has it credited to you.
Some quests don't activate right away.
~~~Darth Caedus
Done most of the tasks... quests aren't being added!
Umm, there seems to be an error with the 'Perfectionist' achievement... In the sense that I haven't completed half the achievements and have just received 'Perfectionist'... I shouldn't even have it yet?
I have experienced the same problem as above. I got the quest around the halfway point, so told Nichodemus who recommended posting here and linking @MrDayCee.

Two words that have an increasingly antagonistic relationship – "profit" and "publishing." But Red Hen Press, based in Pasadena, California, has made a virtue of being a not-for-profit.
Founded in 1994 to publish and promote literary works often overlooked by the mainstream, Red Hen Press has built its catalog and balanced its checking account by becoming a virtual hub of the Los Angeles area literary community. With 250 titles published to date, Red Hen Press can claim a Guggenheim Fellow and a Whiting Award winner among its authors, as well as relationships with urban school districts and numerous reading series held across southern California and in New York City.
Red Hen Press co-founder Kate Gale is the author of five books of poetry, and six librettos; she is also Managing Editor of the Los Angeles Review and President of the American Composers Forum, LA, in addition to her work at Red Hen Press. She spoke recently with CCC's Chris Kenneally about what lies ahead for Red Hen.
"We have plans to do more and more e-books. All of our prose titles are available as e-books. I see us as having an increasing market for e-books and selling more of those," Gale says. "I also think that we will do more anthologies, because anthologies seem to be still very interesting to people. And I see us using the Internet, viral marketing, and social media to do more and more of our publicity."

Tusker coach Robert Matano was furious after seeing his side's double chance fade away with their 1-0 defeat to Sofapaka in the second semi-final of the FKF President's Cup, on Sunday, at Moi International Sports Centre-Kasarani.
After Humphrey Mieno's 55th minute free-kick goal was disallowed, former Mathare United midfielder Joseph Nyaga made good use of Heritier Luvualu's pass to score the match winner in the 77th minute.
However, according to Matano, they lost because his players didn't play as per instructions.
"We didn't play according to our game plan. They (players) took things so easy, so we didn't deserve to win," said Matano.
The former Sofapaka and AFC Leopards tactician was quick to quash reports that having booked a continental football ticket – after retaining the Kenyan Premier League – they did not take the cup match seriously.
"I cannot say so, but the thing is they didn't play well and they didn't deserve to win. There is no way you can play badly and you want to win."
Sofapaka will clash with holders Gor Mahia in the final, on Tuesday, in what will be a repeat of last year's final.

Bulldog Drummond1929
Bulldog Drummond (John Howard) along with his pal Algy Longworth and fiancee Phyllis Claverling, come upon a severed arm that is still attached to a valise filled with a new type of high explosive. Their investigation put them on the trail of the evil Draven Nogais (Frank Puglia), who has run off with the top secret formula for the high explosives. As usual, Bulldog is aided by Colonel Neilson (John Barrymore) of Scotland Yard, and his trusty servant (E. E. Clive).This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media.

Pah! The eternal din in this club is an outrage! I ask you, wot?
Algy Longworth:
You're perfectly right, Colonel. We ought to complain. Do you know that's the third spoon I've heard drop this month?
Hugh 'Bulldog' Drummond:
Spoons, my hat. I wish that somebody would throw a bomb and wake the place up.
Hugh 'Bulldog' Drummond:
I've been bored too long. I can't stand it any more. I'm too rich to work, too intelligent to play (much); I tell you, if something doesn't happen within the next few days, I'll explode.
Algy Longworth:
I don't know what to suggest, dear old boy, unless you advertised... and you, you can't very well do that, can you?
Hugh 'Bulldog' Drummond:
I don't know, I might. I rather think that's an inspiration, Algy, by Jove I do! I didn't know you had it in you. Say, barman, give me a piece of paper and a pencil. Now, let's see: "To the Editor, Personal Column, The Times, London. Demobilized officer, finding peace unbearably tedious..."

No, they did not found hip-hop. They would probably be considered to in the second wave of rap artists after the old school cats who did create the genre. I feel they will definitely make it into the rock hall of fame. They had a huge impact when they came out in the 80s all the way into the 90s. More importantly they were liked by the music critics. Also, they will get points from music snobs because they play with a live band - The Banned.

newsflash...on what planet did public enemy become rock? i'm not going to deny their contribution to hip-hop/ rap, but they did not contribute to rock in nay manner. NO. not when there are deserving rock groups that have been tragically overlooked.

The argument that [whatever band you dislike] isn't rock n' roll has already been thrown out. They inducted Grandmaster Flash and Miles Davis; they're about to induct Madonna; it's obviously become about music, not rock n' roll.

First of all, rock and roll is deined by whether or not it moves you. Rap and hip hop move you, especially Public Enemy. The only reason that Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five are the only hip hoppers in there is because it takes at least 25 years between your first record to be eligible. Hip hop and rap has only been around for about 27 or 28 years. Public Enemy revolutionized hip hop and paved the way for today's gangsta' rappers, they were just more intellectually gifted. Chuck D kicks ass!!
Posted by keith on Tuesday, 10.30.07 @ 17:50pm
I don't think we've ever had a group that was as brave, political, and supportive of what they represented like Public Enemy. Chuck D was the first rapper to speak his mind and that could reach people. Flavor Flav started the showmanship style at rap shows. It's a yes for me.
Posted by SSR on Sunday, 12.2.07 @ 09:28am
It's funny how there is such a WIDE variety of music that is and will be honored in the HOF, but when it comes to hip-hop, which has revolutionized the music generation, since Rock n'Roll. It still has its naysayers that don't want it in.....wow! We still are a country set on the " good ole boy system", even in music.

P.E. deserves to be in. "Black Steel" rocks. "She Watch Channel Zero" rocks.. "Terrordome" rocks!! P.E. was kinda like the punk rock of rap. The beats were louder and frantic. The vocal delivery was hard and in your face. And the lyrics actually had impact. Around the time P.E. was blowing up, there weren't many "rock" artists that hit harder than them. All I remember is seeing videos on MTV of bands where I couldn't tell the difference between the dude playing guitar or the ho grinding up against him. P.E. can stand alongside artists such as Dylan, Neil Young, The Clash, Bad Religion, Pearl Jam, and Rage Against The Machine any day!!

IMO, I have a hard time calling rap a "variant" of Rock 'n' Roll. It's just so different from rock'n'roll, that it resembles rock'n'roll as much as a stick figure resembles three-dimensional life.
Posted by Philip on Tuesday, 02.3.09 @ 18:09pm
Philip - if we accept that Rock and Pop flow hand in hand, then you must say the same about Rap. Blondie rapped and they are in. And once you had the intergration of the two leading to rap/rock (Aerosmith/Run DMC; Anthrax/Public Enemy) which then led to music by Faith No More, etc., then you have to accept Rap into the RnR hall of Fame. If I have to accept Madonna, I sure as sh*t am going to accept NWA, Public Enemy, Run DMC, etc.
Posted by Dameon on Tuesday, 02.3.09 @ 18:35pm
Perhaps... but 1) that doesn't mean "rap" is a variant of "rock"; 2) I don't think you can say Rock and Pop flow hand in hand necessarily, beyond the extent that Rock was/is popular and was THE thing to be, just as much as Rap is THE thing to be nowadays, but one commonality doesn't make one a "variant" of the other; 3) we're still talking about criteria that state "contributions to the development and perpetuation of rock and roll." Therefore, I don't believe you should include rappers who only influenced other rappers.

First of all, my opinions (and they are just that...opinions, which you're also entitled to) are not derived from "ignorance and lack of appreciation", since I've spent plenty of time around recording studios AND rappers...in most cases (another key phrase), if you can talk, you can rap. Any other way of thinking would be pretzel logic. Having taught guitar for a number of years, I've seen people who, no matter how hard they tried or loved the instrument, just simply couldn't do it. I don't think that probem exists much in rap.

I am not especially a big fan of Hip Hop music, but like all genres of music, it has musical merit and redeeming qualities. Since Run DMC is the second Rap act to be inducted (and the 3rd nominated) I think it is pointless to bitch about Hip Hop being kept out of the Hall. It's too late!, lets just accept it already. With that said here is my prediction of who will go down as the 1st 10 Rappers inducted in the HoF:
Posted by Jonny on Tuesday, 02.24.09 @ 12:59pm

If any rap artist has made an impact on rock and roll, it's public enemy. fight the power just screams rage against the machine influence.
Posted by Justin on Tuesday, 06.23.09 @ 15:17pm
what i wonder is that RAP is the genre that everyone wants barred from the hall of fame. Country and Reggae artists have made it into the hall. Not because they are rock artists, but because their music has influenced rock.

Unless they change the name of the hall or make an "Outside Influence" category, Public Enemy should not be inducted.

Too many people listen to PE as rock music. I've never been able to buy that, rock in its pure form is chokingly uninteresting; I'd much rather listen to It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back -- or any of their first four or so -- in terms of _early_ hip hop. Like that it's absolutely fascinating, Terminator X, Chuck D and Flav each pretty much unprecedented, whether it be the full-force-with-subtelty production, the paranoid politicised prose or the joyous freeform-ish solo/side-man spots.

Yes. The "Bring the Noise" re-make with Anthrax created rap-metal, and they definitely gave hip-hop a conscience ("Fight the Power.") That alone is enough to get them in.
Posted by Sam on Tuesday, 03.2.10 @ 17:08pm
Public Enemy's "Fight The Power" is loosely based on the Isley Brothers song of the same name...only that version predates Public Enemy's by about 15 years and is every bit as socially conscious...
Posted by Gitarzan on Tuesday, 03.2.10 @ 19:51pm
I haven't listened to the Isley Brothers. Even so, the rap-metal thing is enough to make them deserving, and I'm pretty sure they had other songs similar to "Fight the Power" and I know they're credited with being the first revolutionary hip-hop group.

Sam...my point is saying "Rock" isn't Rock & Roll would be saying "Country" isn't Country & Western...which it most assuredly is. If you watch a DVD set called "The History of Rock & Roll" (which leaves the Seven Ages Of Rock in the dust, in my opinion), it will leave no doubt in your mind that it all ties in together...it really is essential viewing for those interested in the entire history.
Posted by Gitarzan on Sunday, 03.21.10 @ 08:23am
Fair enough. I'm definitely going to give that set another try. Is it divided into different sections like 7 Ages? Speaking of which, for all the flaws in the other episodes (The Stadium Rock episode was good for the way they approached but could've had improvement) the Art-Rock and British Indie episodes were near perfect in their coverage (okay, they had some flaws, but if there's anything you need to know about those types of music I'd watch those episodes. The Indie one in particular is very thorough and covers the timeline quite well.) Now playing: Blur, "For Tomorrow"
Posted by Sam on Sunday, 03.21.10 @ 21:22pm
Sam...it's divided into 5 DVD's, with 2 episodes per.

My favorite episode is called "Guitar heroes"...imagine that...!!!

WOW. Easily the most retarded thing ever said on these boards. I bet there's a strong correlation to the people who think rap is a legitimate art form and people who have never touched a musical instrument in their life.
Posted by Sam on Saturday, 04.10.10 @ 14:30pm
Okay, let me clarify that a bit and use another example. If there was a 12-year old down my street learning to play guitar (which there isn't) and he decided that rap sucked and then a professional singer who writes his or her own songs but doesn't play any instruments thinks otherwise, does that mean the 12-year old has more credibility on the subject than the singer? What a preposterous notion (I played classical music when I was younger for 7 or 8 years, so I certainly pass your litmus test and thus can say what I like on the subject.) So tell me, Randy: If you discovered Lou Gramm liked hip-hop would you suddenly hate him and destroy all the Foreigner stuff you owned with him singing? Well, of course you'd have no choice otherwise you'd be a hypocrite. You'd have to give him just as little credibility as you'd give, say, Massive Attack (who I'm listening to as I type this.) Your argument is ridiculous, in conclusion. However you don't seem to have the balls to respond when you lose an argument. Gitarzan is good for a conversation and it appears he can at least accept some of a rapper's place when he conveys originality (though it's still unclear how he feels about PE.)

The rock and roll hall of fame is not going to ignore it. Public Enemy, NWA, Dr. Dre, Tupac, Wu Tang Clan, A Tribe Called Quest, and all the other important rap groups will get in because they've innovated and influenced music. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame dosen't exclusively induct rock bands, they've inducted Madonna, ABBA, Bob Marley, etc. because they've been massively influential on music. So have rap artists. Many more rap artists will get inducted in the coming years, so don't complain because you can't deny rap's impact on music in general. Rappers have influenced some rock bands today.

I agree, but it should be exclusive. Johnny Cash was a country artist, but he transcended that and was just as much rockabilly. His work had to do with rock and also impacted rock. Same thing applies here. The rap that has either broken new ground, influenced rock or touched upon rock is the kind that should be inducted. Under that criteria Grandmaster Flash and Run DMC were correct calls, and Public Enemy should go in as well if you've done the proper research.
Posted by Sam on Thursday, 04.14.11 @ 12:04pm
I don't get why critics cream themselves over the "message" of this band, if a white guy made songs calling black people inferior he'd be ripped to shreds by them but when chuck D supports someone like Louis Farrankh who says that Jews are evil and whites are devils, it's "revolutionary"

The Hall invalidates itself by putting in Public Enemy before Anthrax and Slayer. The fans will always regard the Hall as terminally prejudiced against White musicians in rock and metal if P.E. and NWA get in. Especially if both Deep Purple and Rush are not inducted but Public Enemy and NWA are.

The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame inductees who would vote for Public Enemy

Anthrax has never been thought of as one of THE great bands of our time, though- Slayer's had more critical success than Anthrax, but it's not like it's enjoyed U2- or Radioihead-like acclaim. Public Enemy, on the other hand, is regarded as one of the best of its genre (it's not just about rock music, remember) and is regarded as one of the most influential.

Do you think it will be only Flava Flav and Chuck D getting inducted or will they also induct Terminator X?

Terminator X was mentioned in their R&R Hall of Fame bio page so I think it's safe to say he'll be inducted alongside Flava Flav and Chuck D.

I'd want them to induct Professor Griff and the Bomb Squad as part of the group as well, but that's probably not gonna happen.

@Roy - Bruce Springsteen name-dropped It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back in his SXSW Keynote speech last year. Don't be surprised if they had wider support than just that...

Deserved. The Hall's starting to build themselves quite the little Hip-Hop wing.

Chuck D., Flavor Flav, Terminator X, Professor Griff and DJ Lord mentioned in the Rock Hall bio for Public Enemy, but the inductees have not been listed yet.

Flavor Flav is in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Stevie Ray Vaughn is not. This has to be some kind of cruel joke.

This right here is why the Rock and Roll HOF needs to be changed to "Music" HOF or something similar. No problem with their induction, but people will argue, not only about Public Enemy, but about many names that are in (and that will be in sometime down the road), as to what genre they "technically" qualify for.
Posted by CP on Thursday, 07.18.13 @ 16:17pm
"Popular Music HOF" might work better, or else you'd have to include ALL forms of music, which is a hell of a lot.

Its current name is completely appropriate. The problem is not with the hall, it's will commenters who aren't knowledgeable enough to know that RnR's history end evolution is broader than their own record collections and contains important artists who are of different races that the commenter.

I'd argue Hip Hop isn't Rock N Roll.
Posted by GFW on Thursday, 07.18.13 @ 20:24pm
Shut up, GFW.

Texas bans shark fin trade, closing the biggest US source
Texas has banned shark fin trading, ending what had become a major US source for the Chinese buying the fins, which are considered a delicacy used to make soup. But the world cannot afford such profligacy, according to conservation groups, which blame shark finning for driving shark populations into a steep decline. Texas' move may help turn things around for the oceans apex predators.Read More
