Florida magnate threatens firings if Obama wins
Published on People's World, by Mark Gruenenberg, Oct. 19, 2012.
Shades of 1896: A Florida-based time-share magnate, billionaire David Siegel, is threatening to fire workers if a Democratic Party's presidential nominee – in this case, incumbent Barack Obama – wins the November election.
In an Oct. 8 e-mail to all 8,000 workers at Westgate Resorts nationwide, Siegel stated if Obama wins and "enacts more corporate taxes," Siegel would have no choice but to fire people. Media in cities with Westgate properties, including in the swing states of Florida and Arizona, picked up his threat – as did media as far away as India.
Siegel's e-mail and a similar, but milder, comment by GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney earlier this year, did not surprise AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka, who said unionists have seen increasing instances of such business coercion this year
"Apparently, Romney doesn't believe in workplace democracy," Trumka said. "As more and more reports of employer coercion of workers' political rights emerge, it is clear Romney's disdain for workplace rights is not unique. In fact, employer communications to workers we are seeing include both direct and implicit threats and scare tactics to make employees fear for their jobs if Obama wins.
"These are the same tactics employers use against workers trying to organize. The Supreme Court has long recognized that even what appears on its face to be mere persuasion becomes inherently coercive when it's an employer urging its employees to take particular actions."
Siegel's e-mail harkens back to the 1896 presidential race between business-backed GOP nominee William McKinley and fiery Democratic and pro-worker populist William Jennings Bryan. McKinley's campaign was one of the first, if not the first, presidential drive to be fueled by millions of dollars in corporate campaign cash.
The1896 race was also notable for industrialists telling their workers: "If Bryan wins on Tuesday, don't come in on Wednesday." That threat, the cash and lingering hatred of the Democrats for their ties to Southern racists who caused the Civil War – McKinley was a Civil War veteran, Bryan was not – produced a McKinley landslide … //
… Romney, in an interactive town hall video in June with the radical right National Federation of Independent Business, didn't go as far. The video, posted on YouTube by In These Times, shows Romney stuck to the letter of the law, but left a clear impression with his listeners.
"I hope you make it very clear to your employees what you believe is in the best interest of your enterprise and therefore their job and their future in the upcoming elections," Romney said. "Nothing illegal about you talking to your employees about what you believe is best for the business, because I think that will figure into their election decision, their voting decision."

Jury Chechi : biography
Jury Dimitri Chechi Commendatore OMRI ( born 11 October 1969) is a retired Italian gymnast.
Honours of merit
- 50px 3rd Class / Commander: Commendatore Ordine al Merito della Repubblica Italiana
— 27 September 2004. Initiative by President of the Italian Republic Carlo Azeglio Ciampi.
Born in Prato (Tuscany), he won the Olympics title in the rings at Atlanta 1996 and was third at Athens 2004. Chechi's bronze was the result of his attempted comeback into the sport at the age of 35, well above what is considered the average age of a male gymnast.
Jury Chechi dominated his specialty, the rings, during the nineties, so he was named "The Lord of the Rings", however he could not participate in the Barcelona 1992 and Sydney 2000 Olympic games due to serious injuries. He has won five gold and two bronze medals at the World Gymnastics Championships and four gold and two bronze medals at the European Championships.
Chechi was the Italian flagbearer at the opening ceremony in the Athens Games in 2004. He also participated in the 2006 Winter Olympics opening ceremony in Turin.
Jury sparked some controversy at the 2004 Athens Olympic games when he shook the hand of Silver medalist in the rings final, Yordan Yovchev and signaled that he should have won the gold medal, not Dimosthenis Tampakos (meaning that he won only because he was the local champion).

Between red carpets, morning talk shows and post-screening Q&As, an actor can quickly seem ubiquitous during award season. And if you're promoting two movies in the months leading up to the Oscars? Overexposure becomes a legitimate concern.
That's the situation Tom Hanks is wrestling with right now as he works the promotional circuit to talk up two high-profile roles. The latest is his turn as Walt Disney in "Saving Mr. Banks," which kicked off AFI Fest in Hollywood on Thursday evening. The film, out Dec. 20, will hit theaters about two months after Hanks earned strong reviews for his portrayal of a seaman kidnapped by pirates in "Captain Phillips."
Every year, there's always one performer with a lot on their plate between October and March. In 2011, for instance, George Clooney starred in the fall movies "The Ides of March" and "The Descendants." But Clooney directed "Ides," so he could speak about the two projects in a different way. While Hanks' role as Disney is far smaller than his part in "Captain Phillips," his performance is an integral part of each film.
VIDEO: AFI Film Fest cheat sheet
On the red carpet outside the TCL Chinese Theatre this week, however, Hanks was already trying to downplay his role in "Saving Mr. Banks," calling it "so much Emma's thing." (He was referring to his co-star, Emma Thompson, who plays "Mary Poppins" author P.L. Travers -- the uptight novelist who for two decades refused to sell her famous book's rights to Disney.)

Hi,Hopefully one of you smart people in here can help me figure out a nagging problem I've encountered recently when recording.Let me start by saying I'm using an AVID Mbox Mini 3rd gen, and I'm using Protools 12.6.1When I record to an audio track, the midi track(s) I have running (usually just a clicktrack and a temporary drum track) gets recorded to that particular audio track as well for no particular reason. It's barely audible, but it's there lurking in the background.I guess you can compare it to when you record vocals, the microphone will pick up the audio you hear in your headphones while you record. It has that same effect.I found that the midi that is recorded gets more audible if I use a plug-in that has a louder input/output, like a distorted guitar plug-in.Here's when things get really odd. It ONLY happens when I have a cable plugged into one of my line inputs on the audio interface, AND when I'm running a plug-in in Protools. It doesn't matter what plug-in it is. Those two things combined is needed for this weird thing to happen.The midi DOESN'T get recorded to the audio track when:1. I only have the cable plugged in and no plug-ins running, or2. when I have a plug-in running, but no cable plugged in the audio interface.I've tried changing cables, tried changing cleaning the interface inside out, tried changing everything I could think of that would have an effect. I've also been through every setting in Protools double-checking, even triple-checking to see if some silly little setting could be the cause of this. It started happening out of the blue some weeks ago, and I've tried eliminating whatever I could think of, but to no avail. I've tried opening older sessions that were recorded before this issue occured, and if I create an audio track in that session now and start recording, the same thing happens.I started suspecting the audio interface had become faulty since it's rather old by now, but as I said above, it works fine when I either only have a cable plugged in or a plug-in running. It's some weird combination of those two.I would hate having to re-install Protools, especially since I have no clue what is going on.I've attached an audio file in which I've used a distorted guitar plug-in so you can (hopefully) hear what's going on. Also attached is a screenshot.Fingers crossed anyone in here knows what's going on.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. - The epicenter of the fight over the nation's patchwork of immigration laws is not Arizona, which shares a border with Mexico and became a common site for boycotts. Nor was it any of the four states that were next to pass their own crackdowns.
The case that's likely to be the first sorted out by the U.S. Supreme Court comes from the Deep South state of Alabama, where the nation's strictest immigration law has resurrected ugly images from the state's days as the nation's battleground for civil rights a half-century ago.
And Alabama's jump to the forefront says as much about the country's evolving demographics as it does the nation's collective memory of the state's sometimes violent path to desegregation.
With the failure of Congress in recent years to pass comprehensive federal immigration legislation, Arizona, Georgia, Utah, South Carolina and Indiana have passed their own. But supporters and opponents alike agree none contained provisions as strict as those passed in Alabama, among them one that required schools to check students' immigration status. That provision, which has been temporarily blocked, would allow the Supreme Court to reconsider a decision that said a K-12 education must be provided to illegal immigrants.
"It really offers the Supreme Court a broad canvas to reshape what being an immigrant in the United States means," said Foster Maer, an attorney with LatinoJustice in New York, which is challenging the law.
Its stature as the strictest in the nation, along with the inevitable comparisons of today's Hispanics with African-Americans of the 1950s and '60s, makes it a near certainty the law will be a test case for the high court.
Alabama was well-suited to be the nation's civil-rights battleground because of its harsh segregation laws, large Black population, and the presence of a charismatic young minister named Martin Luther King Jr., who led a boycott of segregated buses in 1955.
Opponents say the new law's schools provision conjures images of Gov. George Wallace's stand in the schoolhouse door to block integration.
"Today we have a different stand in the schoolhouse door. We have efforts to intimidate children who have a constitutional right to go to school," said Richard Cohen, president of the Southern Poverty Law Center.
Although no solid numbers exist, schools have reported fewer Hispanic students attending school, with some saying as much as 10 percent of their Hispanic students have withdrawn since the law took effect a month ago.
The lawyer leading the state's defense, Alabama Attorney General Luther Strange, faults President Barack Obama's Justice Department for stirring the civil-rights comparisons by falsely predicting the law would lead to the kind of widespread discrimination and profiling that marked Alabama's past.
"The idea they seem to have is there's a Bull Connor on every corner here in Alabama, which is so widely out of touch with our state," he said, referring to the public-safety commissioner who unleashed police dogs and fire hoses on civil-rights marchers in Birmingham in the 1960s.
At first glance, Alabama seems ill-suited to be the nation's immigration battleground. It's not a border state and is home to fewer illegal immigrants than other Southern states.
"Why are we getting all the publicity? I think it has to do with Alabama's past and the perception that people have of Alabama over the years that don't live in our state and really don't recognize the amount of progress we've made in Alabama over the last 50 to 60 years," said Republican Gov. Robert Bentley, who advocated the law and signed it into effect.
Alabama's law, pushed through by a new GOP supermajority in the Legislature, is being challenged in federal court by the Justice Department, about 30 civil-rights organizations and some prominent church leaders. Judges have blocked some provisions, but sections still stand that allow police to check a person's immigration status during traffic stops and make it a felony for illegal immigrants to conduct basic state business.
Proponents say the law had nothing to with race. They say it was the result of frustration with the federal government's inaction and an effort to open up jobs for the nearly 10 percent of legal residents out of work.
"There are people who try to make racism a cottage industry and profit off it, but I would put the harmony in Alabama up against any place in the country," said Republican Sen. Scott Beason, one of the law's sponsors.
Opponents of the law have fueled the comparisons by holding rallies at historic civil-rights sites and drawing support from civil-rights organizations.
No one in the Alabama Legislature was talking about immigration laws a decade ago because the Hispanic population was so small. The Pew Hispanic Center estimates the number of illegal immigrants in Alabama has grown from 25,000 in 2000 to 120,000 in 2010 - a nearly fivefold increase - though it's only a fraction of the 11 million or so estimated in the country.
That rapid rise drew complaints from residents who blamed Hispanics for knocking them out of jobs by working for cheaper wages and no benefits.
"They were coming in here like thieves in the night and taking our jobs and tax revenue," said Republican Rep. Micky Hammon, who also sponsored the new law.
To be sure, construction businesses and farms say Hispanic workers they have relied upon have fled the state. So far, they haven't been able to find legal residents willing to take on what is usually backbreaking work.

Screaming Hayabusa, or SKRMR for short, is a corporation based inside an arcade frigate shooter in which pilots play on hardcore mode in the ultimate quest for the good fight!
The player controls a spaceship that can move left, right, up and down, as well as performing the occasional barrel roll and inverted loop, all this while under constant enemy fire. The ship makes use of advanced fitting techniques and weapons platforms to give it the highest chance of survival during combat, however, in most cases it usually ends up getting destroyed by overwhelming numbers.
SKRMR gameplay consists of a variety of distinct "missions" or "roams", each with its own patterns of enemies. The central goal of each mission is to destroy all enemies in that wave, which takes the player to the next mission. Successfully completing all missions will increase the player's rank, and after logging off will loop the player back to the first mission, where play continues on a higher difficulty level.
The game continues until the player loses all their lives (ships). The player can insert more credit and purchase more ships at any time.
The player can advance through the ranks based on the number of enemies killed during missions. A medal system is employed, tied in with killboard rankings. Along the way, a robotic voice heckles and threatens the player, often calling the player by his current number (for example, "Some solo warrior you are, Number Ten!").
The underlying hardware platform for SKRMR is based on years of refined combat experience and research.

- We mainly fly in lowsec space, but we will also fly in nullsec/wormholes and highsec if desired.
- We don't openly ask for or accept 1v1's.
- Ransoms aren't our thing either.
- We don't smack talk in local.
- We don't ever use ECM, or alts with ECM. If you have a Falcon alt it is probably best you stop reading now.
- We enjoy chasing cloaky stab-monkey loyalty point farmers around the faction warfare playgrounds.

- Forum community.
- Dedicated teamspeak3 server.
- Alt corps for potential ISK making.
If you think you might be interested then jump into our public channel for a chat.
panic! at the beacons
There is no application form to fill in, some corp applications require more input than an application to a job with the FBI. There are no background checks, we are a corporation in a pixelated spaceship game with no assets or intel to steal. If we know you then you will be accepted without too much trouble. If you are some random dude then we would like you to come fly with us and get to know us first.

It was just yesterday that Dan Murphy joined me for a podcast in which we discussed the very real likelihood of a deal between restricted free agent Chris Tanev and the Canucks dragging out this summer.
It sure didn't take long for that conversation to become dated; with a potentially unfavourable arbitration process for the player looming, the two came to terms on a 1-year deal that could wind up being beneficial for both parties in the long run. But particularly the Canucks, as Jim Benning's largely inspiring first summer as the team's GM continues on.
The deadline for arbitration filing is set for 2 PM PST today, which surely expedited the process for Tanev's camp. While there's a few different ways in which one could make an argument for the player's value to the team, the unfortunate truth is that the league still hasn't become as progressive in some areas as it has in others.
One that's lagging behind is the arbitration process, in which only "official statistics prepared by the league" may be used to make a case by either party. Chris Tanev's superficial counting stats profile isn't exactly going to blow anyone out of the water, and I'm sure he and his agent were all too aware of this, giving the Canucks the leverage here. That's the equivalent of blood in the water for a cap shark like Laurence Gilman, making it none too surprising that the team was able to get such a team-friendly deal like it did today.
There's no other way to spin it for the Canucks, who just got themselves a player that didn't look remotely out of place playing on its top pairing for 60+ games for a measly $2 million. After a relatively poor lockout shortened season, Tanev really stepped his game up tenfold this past year.
Despite receiving the fewest percentage of shifts in the offensive zone out of all Canucks defensemen – and going up against the toughest quality of competition, to boot – he still managed to finish the campaign with a positive relative corsi. Playing roughly 75% of those minutes next to a Dan Hamhuis surely didn't hurt his cause, but for whatever it's worth Tanev still managed to tread water in those minutes that the two spent apart.
But even with that in mind, arguably Tanev's most important contribution to the team was his prowess when shorthanded, where his positioning and willingness to put his body in harm's way were a major reason why the Canucks had one of the league's most effective penalty killing units for much of the season. Only 22 NHLers averaged more time on the PK than Tanev last year, and just 7 of the guys that logged at least 2 minutes of shorthanded ice-time per game were more effective at suppressing shots in such situations. One of the more impressive stats of all to come out from last season was that large stretch of time where the Canucks were even in terms of goal differential when Tanev was on the ice killing penalties.
With all of that being said, potentially the best part of the deal for the team is that they just afforded themselves another year of sample size to figure out whether Chris Tanev is someone they'd like to invest in long-term. According to 10.1a (i) in the new CBA: "a player who either has 7 accrued seasons or is 27 years of age or older as of June 30th of the end of a League Year shall become an Unrestricted Free Agent". That means that Tanev still has 2 more RFA years after this one, seeing as he turns 25 during this upcoming season.
It would be somewhat understandable were the Canucks slightly weary of committing to a player of Tanev's profile long-term. While his offensive production rate jumped up from 0.634 to 0.912 points/60 at 5v5 this past season, there's still plenty of work to be done in that facet of the game for Tanev. He's still young, but what his ceiling on that side of the ice is remains to be seen.
There's also the fact that the style of game he has played up until this point has left him prone to a relatively substantial amount of physical damage. While the band-aid label would be a bit premature, it's fair to be concerned about the number of hard hits and impactful blocked shots he willingly eats up on a seemingly nightly basis.
It's because of all of that, that the upcoming season is a monumental one for Tanev. If he's able to stay healthy and play at the level which he was at last year, it's easy to imagine that the Canucks will finally pony up and give him his payday after having seen him take two consecutive team-friendly deals. Or maybe they'll decide the most prudent move is to trade him before that price tag skyrockets like they reportedly considered doing so prior to the draft.
They'll eventually cross that bridge when the time comes, but for now all we can do is appreciate the value that the team continues to squeeze out of a player that was an undrafted free agent just a few years ago. Buying time before having to make a concrete decision either way was just another notch in what has quickly become a commendable summer debut for Jim Benning in Vancouver.

The son of Wen-Wang, Bo-Yi became a rabbit and disappeared in the grass. Yet his soul was brought by Venus to the heaven and lived in the world of stars.
Bo-Yi became the first victim that Jiu-Tian-Suan-Nv swore to destroy Yin-Shang Dynasty. He was bestowed to handle nobleness and lived in a star full of purple roses.
This star was named "The star of Zi-Wei" for the purple roses bloomed everywhere. Chinese put this star in the front of all the stars in horoscopy, named Zi-Wei Dou Shu. That is, using the meaning of "Do", measurement and the meaning of "Shu", destiny to measure the destiny of human beings that based on the divination of Zi-Wei star.
The star that Bo-Yi lived was called "The star of Zi-Wei". In the divination, it has the meaning of esteemed greatness and stands for kindness and nobleness.
Wen-Wang, after coming back to his fief, swore to the sky to revenge his son, Bo-yi. He did many good things and remembered this lesson to build his strong country. It's a pity that he died before he reached his goal. Hence, the responsibility was taken by his second son – Wu-Wang, the brother of Bo-Yi. And finally, Yin-Shang Dynasty was exterminated by Wu-Wang.
Wu-Wang inherited the unfulfilled wish of Wen-Wang. He trained his military everyday and engaged in farming. So, his country became stronger day by day. Later, he got the help from his military counselor, named Jiang-Shang.
As a result, Yin-Shang Dynasty became extinct. King of Wu succeeded to the throne. The world got into Chou Dynasty. The reason that Wu-Wang could conquer Chou-Wang was that he got the assistance of Jiang-Shang, the military counselor.

text: A day at Rocket Ron's race school Published: 18 May 2017 The Ron Haslam Race School has become synonymous for motorcyclists who want to better their riding without speed limits and in a safe environment. It's an experience that benefits both road craft and track riding. That's surely a win win, right? I went to find out. It would seem that the weather gods wouldn't shine on me when it comes to riding Motorcycles at Donington. The forecast had predicted it to be bad, but that still wasn't going to quash my hopes that someway, somehow it might be dry at the very least. It wasn't. At all. TOP STORIES Vigilantes aim to tackle motorcycle crime Laverda museum collection up for sale Bike of the day: Triumph Daytona 675 WSBK: Nicky Hayden 'seriously injured' in cycling crash Gallery: Extreme bikes on extreme roads I was signed on to the Premier experience, which meant I was going to be riding the CBR600RR and not the Fireblade, something I was quietly pleased about given the conditions on track. I've only really been on track a few times and circuit riding is something I desperately want to improve, especially given that I've got a few track days planned a little later on with my Kawasaki Ninja 650 long termer, so any extra tuition is especially helpful. The day started with a briefing, with an introduction as to what to expect from the day and a look at what each of the flags means. It gave us a clearer idea as to what the track conditions will be like and also what we would be doing during the course of the morning. From there, we were paired up with our instructors. Today we were quite lucky and had an instructor each for the Premier experience, normally you are paired up with two riders per instructor on the 600cc machines, with the one-to-one tuition reserved for the Elite experience on the Blades. My first session of three was met with some trepidation, it's been a good while since I've been on track and the soaking conditions weren't exactly settling my worry of slinging the bike down the road. My instructor, Mick made sure I kept things tidy though and kept me in focussed while I found my feet again. Following him was a real help; he kept me from being too eager on the throttle and showed me the best lines to take around the circuit for the conditions. It definitely kept me in shape as I was reminded of the limit of adhesion on the circuit, seeing the waved yellows for a rider who had binned it at the old hairpin on one of the Blades, his day was already over, just two laps in. The session was red flagged and we regrouped in the pits while the blade was recovered from the track. It was quite helpful in a way, I'd bumbled around the track and got a little time to feel what was happening underneath me without using the whole session to get used to it. It meant that by the time I went back out I was that little more confident. After the first session we returned to the pits again, it was soaking. I could wring my gloves out and the dark visor I had left on my lid had become a hindrance as the gloomy weather made it harder to see, I opted to change to a clear visor with a Pinlock before the next session. Kitted up and into the briefing! 🏍#CNBikeDay pic.twitter.com/Jf2JxOCx9Z — Carole Nash (@insidebikes) May 17, 2017 Mick went over a map of the circuit with me, explaining the best gearing to use through each section of the track and also helped me to tweak my riding position aboard a static bike. It was good to learn more about what I could be doing better in my everyday riding and the small changes I could make to my everyday riding position will make a big difference to me in the long run. After, it was time for the second session, in the 20 minutes or so that we'd been in the pits, the track had somehow managed to get even wetter and now resembled a river more than a track. Back out we went in the same fashion as before. There was even less grip than before and I felt the bike starting to get a little squirrely in the conditions. I'd like to point out that the bikes weren't fitted with wet tyres; it doesn't make sense to when there are so many bikes on the fleet; by the time the school would be able to change all the wheels on the bikes the day would already be over. Instead they have opted to fit the bikes with Dunlop Roadsmart III's and they performed admirably given what they were being asked to do. I felt my confidence grow further and by the time we came in from the second session I already felt that I was riding much better and so much smoother than I had at the beginning of the day, despite the track conditions being worse. Between the second and third sessions we collectively gathered in one of the garages where we were able to identify problems that we might be having in certain parts of the track as a group, which helps to give you an idea of what the other riders are thinking about and can help you address something that you may not have already thought about before. The third and final session let me take on board the things I had learnt during the first two sessions and put them into practice. I was feeling my confidence soar and the bike coming to me much more than I thought it would have done first thing. The wet no longer bothered me; it simply became an obstacle that I was able to overcome. From the final session, where I was literally able to wring my leathers and gloves out, we were to have our final debrief. Where we would be marked on our improvement from the start of the day and given an overall percentage score. I managed to pull out an improvement of 92.5%, which I was pretty stoked with. Overall I couldn't recommend the day highly enough, it's given me extra confidence in all areas of my riding and given me plenty to take away from the circuit that will apply to my road riding too. If you're looking for an introduction to track riding and even for those who are experienced then I couldn't recommend the Ron Haslam Race School highly enough. It gives you an excellent way to get on track and teaches you far more than you would otherwise get on just a novice track day. Excellent instructors leave you safe in the knowledge that they're going to look out for you and bring you on in a way that would otherwise take a very long time, guide you around.

Literature is a lonely art, but writers keep company with the heroes on their bookshelves. We asked five Festival of Books participants to pay tribute to authors who inspired them.
I began my education in a racially segregated community where black children went to a small, weather-beaten "colored school." Lawyers forced public schools to admit black children just after I began elementary school (an effort a decade earlier had failed; angry protests by white families simmered and festered until outrage about race-mixing halted integration) and by the time my middle school years arrived, black and white students had settled into a comparatively comfortable tolerance of one another. Black people continued to live in racially segregated neighborhoods, however, still occupying what felt like the margins of society.
It was during this time of change that, as a 15-year-old high school sophomore, I read Ralph Ellison's "Invisible Man":
"I am an invisible man. No, I am not a spook like those who haunted Edgar Allan Poe; nor am I one of your Hollywood movie ectoplasms. I am a man of substance, of flesh and bone, fiber and liquids — and I might even be said to possess a mind."
Ellison's nameless narrator haunted me because it spoke to a social reality that I could understand and to which I could bear witness. But the book did more than descriptively investigate the political and social landscape of race in America, it provoked me to see myself through a profoundly different lens. "Invisible Man" awakened an awareness about the power of narrative that I hadn't fully discovered before. It didn't necessarily make me want to be a writer, but it did make me understand in a new way the power of writing.
After Ellison, I made different choices about how I engaged the racially integrated environment of high school. I made different choices about the roles I maintained in the racially segregated environment outside of high school. I no longer wanted to be silent or indifferent or powerless.
It was an unfamiliar response to literature, but the power of the book's insights was too overwhelming for me to ignore: "It is sometimes advantageous to be unseen, although it is most often rather wearing on the nerves."
Finding something personal and revelatory in literature changed the way I read. It made me search out narratives more earnestly and eagerly. It would be years later — as a college sophomore reading Dostoyevsky's "The Brothers Karamazov" — before I found anything as influential. I still search for books that have that power: Toni Morrison's "Beloved," Marilynne Robinson's "Gilead" or Taylor Branch's trilogy about the civil rights movement. But after "Invisible Man," I knew it existed; this place where words, narrative and language can get you close to truth and the powers that truth can activate.
Ellison taught me that sometimes a book can disrupt the relationship you have to the world around you and force you to demand more, seek more, expect more, experience more that is essential and important to what truly matters.
"So, why do I write, torturing myself to put it down? Because in spite of myself I've learned some things," Ellison wrote. "Without the possibility of action, all knowledge comes to one labeled 'file and forget,' and I can neither file nor forget. Nor will certain ideas forget me; they keep filing away at my lethargy, my complacency."
Stevenson will appear at the Festival of Books on April 19. He is the executive director of the Equal Justice Initiative in Montgomery, Ala., a professor of law at the New York University School of Law and the author of "Just Mercy: A Story of Justice and Redemption."

Autumn in New York, that great ballad of urban longing, describes for me the best season to visit Manhattan. Vernon Duke (born in Russia) wrote the song in 1934 to express his feelings about his city of Gershwin, Ellington and Goodman. By then, the canyons of steel that Duke describes already included the Chrysler Building and the Empire State. And, inspiring Duke's thrill of first nighting, Harlem danced, Broadway sang, and Manhattan was the location of the centre of the jazz universe.
And of course, Manhattan still retains its jazz importance. So, in New York this autumn, once I had spent the afternoon (and plenty of money) in Patelson's legendary sheet music shop on W 56th near Carnegie Hall, explored the new transparent Cube Apple store on Fifth Avenue at 59th, and had dined simply at Oscar's American Brasserie in the Waldorf Astoria, the evening had arrived. Time to swing.
Relatively new to Manahattan, Dizzy's Club Coca Cola is at Columbus Circle, at Broadway and 60th. On entering the main club room one is immediately impressed by the view of the city, seen shimmering below through the immense picture window behind the bandstand. How many jazz clubs can there be in the world where the outlookfrom the windows is worth writing about? Being on the fifth Floor, and located at the south-west corner of Columbus Circle, one watches the musicians and simultaneously faces out to see the dusk creeping across Central Park, lights twinkling in the background skyscrapers. Had Vernon Duke been able to see that sight, he would have been moved to write another verse or two to his song, I'm sure.
The club is nicely full as McPartland's regular rhythm section musicians Gary Mazzaroppi, bass, and Glenn Davis, drums, take the stage, before the pianist emerges on the arm of an escort assisting her to her bench at the Steinway. McPartland, born near Slough in March, 1918, and a recent winner of a DownBeat Lifetime Achievement Award, is clearly having mobility problems these days. But her mind, speech (and fingers) are still impressively bright. After friendly words to the audience (she still speaks with a familiar southern English accent), and a little more help to make her comfortable at the piano, McPartland's set begins with her own composition, Twilight World.
Her playing is relaxed and gentle, in a style reminiscent of Bill Evans. Strangely, McPartland uses her left foot to operate the sustaining pedal. To swap feet in this way is tricky, rather like a car driver using her left foot to work the accelerator. Doubtless McPartland does this to cope with physical problems - but be assured that the music doesn't suffer. We are hearing a mature and seemingly effortless performance, the results of a lifetime of intelligent work.
McPartland has prepared a set list with a variety of keys and tempi in mind. We are taken from the Db of Twilight World to Gb for Little Girl Blue, and then to Love You Madly, which begins in F and modulates to G. Another McPartland original follows: In the Days of Our Love, a minor key ballad blessed with lyrics by Peggy Lee, which has been recorded by Cleo Laine. The request for this was made from the audience by Miss Daryl Sherman, a kindly supportive gesture from one distinguished New York musician to another. Next comes an excursion into three-four for a blues in F, called Threnody ('For Mary Lou Williams'). In the rhythm section, Mazaroppi is a strong, supportive, double-bassist, a New York pro who looks far too young to be the veteran of all those associations with Tal Farlow, Jim Hall, Les Paul, Stan Getz, Joe Morello and Lionel Hampton. Drummer Glenn Davis remains a model of quiet and unobtrusive discretion throughout.
New Orleans being very much on the minds of Americans in the wake of the August 2005 floods, McPartland's choice of Hoagy Carmichael's celebration of the Crescent City was an appropriate following choice. Noticeable was the skillful way in which the pianist brought out the Spanish tinge that Carmichael wrote into the original, an inflection (upward parallel minor-second shifts, redolent of Spanish guitar music) that is lost in so many interpretations of New Orleans.
The set closed with Ellington's (the other Duke) Things Ain't What They Used to Be, which was followed by much warm-hearted applause.
Both Daryl Sherman and Dan Morgenstern shared my table. We all wanted to congratulate Marian McPartland on her reassuring and poised performance. Daryl went first to her dressing room to pave the way, but the news came back that Marian was tired. We abandonded the idea, collected our coats, and headed into the glittering crowds.
Here, instead, are my own congratulations. As Vernon Duke himself said, I Like the Likes of You.

St. Mary's Hospital and Imperial College, London, UK
Vascular hemodynamic forces influence the focal development of atherosclerosis. Atherogenesis has been linked to low and oscillating wall shear stress (WSS) driven by the pulsatile nature of blood flow [1, 2]. Strong evidence has emerged that time-averaged WSS (TAWSS) and oscillating shear index (OSI) are important measures of the atherogenic nature of blood flow. Recently it was reported that the phase-angle between oscillating WSS and circumferential strain in arterial wall (stress phase angle: SPA) may also influence endothelial cell function and contribute to atherosclerosis [3]. In stenosed, curved or bifurcated arteries, the blood flow pattern is complex because of flow separation, which is highly sensitive to the local velocity waveform [4]. Although the effects of waveform on coronary blood flow has been studied by comparing physiological and idealised waveforms [5], the effects of variation in physiological waveforms and their impact on SPA are still unclear. In this study we investigated computationally the influence of physiological flow velocity and pressure waveforms on coronary hemodynamic parameters (e.g. TAWSS, OSI and SPA) using waveforms acquired before and after coronary artery stenting.

OK, two things you should do.
1.) Read Amy Corndolly's blog. It's posted in my links. If you think I have not one but two Corndolly reunion t-shirts, you're right. Amy is great for a walk-off.
2.) Read Audra's new blog, which is also posted in my links. Audra is fabulous and a great dancer. And walk-off'er.
OMG, a pattern has emerged. All of my friends can walk. It's a total prerequisite.

If you want more than the standard sun, sea and sand from your honeymoon, look no further than South Africa. Win this prize and fall head over heels for Cape Town's cosmopolitan cool and the Garden Route's spectacular scenery!
You'll start your trip in one of the Mother City's most glamorous hideaways: The Alphen. This luxury boutique hotel offers five–star indulgence and warm–hearted service in an unbeatable location.
The Alphen is set in the idyllic scenery of the Winelands, but it is just 20 minutes from Table Mountain and the city centre. Its central wine–route location puts guests not only close to some of the Cape's oldest wineries, but also close to some of the Cape Peninsula's best beaches. The Alphen is a picture–perfect honeymoon retreat, with contemporary plush interiors and exceptional facilities – all within the charming setting of a bygone era.
If you've been dreaming of a South Africa safari, you'll find the perfect base just a four–hour drive from Cape Town at Gondwana Game Reserve. Set on 11,000 hectares of spectacular wilderness, Gondwana offers safari–goers excellent chance of seeing the Big Five (elephant, buffalo, lion, rhino and leopard).
Guests here can stay in one of the 14 stand–alone Kwena suites – these tribal–style huts are ultra–romantic, with wood–burning fires and skylights in the dome–shaped roof giving a marvellous night views of the star–filled skies.
Between game drives and outdoor activities, couples can spend their days in a lazy haze of sleeping, reading, lying by the lodge's infinity pool overlooking two waterholes, or visiting the spa, followed by a cocktail in the stylish lounge.
Does this sound like the honeymoon of your dreams? Simply answer this question…
How long is the drive to Gondwana Game Reserve from Cape Town?
Terms and conditions
• Flights are not included • Prize is subject to availability • Prize winner must be a genuine bride–to–be • No cash or prize alternative • Prize is non–transferable • Prize is strictly not for resale • If you do not wish to receive further information from The Alphen Resort or Gondwana Game Reserve, please make this clear on your entry • Full terms and conditions available here •

I.D. Magazine has announced the winners of its 2010 Annual Design Review and Advanced Elements has proudly received an award of Honorable Mention in the Transportation category for the AirFusion ™ Kayak. The AirFusion ™ Kayak is designed to rival the performance and speed of skin-on-frame kayaks while simplifying the setup procedure. Its unique design is a fusion of aluminum alloy frame poles and pressurized air tubes which result in a high performance frame system. What makes the AirFusion ™ Kayak different is the introduction of high pressure air chambers which reduce the amount of frame parts typically needed for setup. The AirFusion ™ consists of 4 aluminum alloy frame poles, 6 high pressure air chambers, and aluminum bow and stern ribs which combine for a setup time of 10 to 20 minutes. At 13' long with a beam of 25" the AirFusion ™ is quick and nimble and tracks like a rigid hard-shell kayak.
Established in 1954, and considered one of the most prestigious design competitions in the world, the Annual Design Review uses a panel of distinguished design professionals to judge each category of the Annual Design Review and determine winners for three award levels: Best of Category, Design Distinction, and Honorable Mention. This year's competition had roughly 2,000 entries.
