Get Your Drink on at Exploratorium's Science of Cocktails Event
The Exploratorium knows how to throw a party, and for the third year, they've turned their annual fundraising event (100% of proceeds from the event go to the museum's programming) into a grand 'ole time.
Thanks to the continued popularity of the now widespread mixology movement, everyone's getting behind the science of the drink. Learn the physics, chemistry, and biology about everything from alcohol's components and cocktail creation to inebriation and the dreaded hangover—all while sipping a martini, of course. SF's best mixers—Bloodhound's Brandon Josie, Ricky Paiva and Russell Davis of Rickhouse, former Rye bartender Doug Williams, and more—will be on hand to concoct a killer combo.
Your ticket includes comped cocktails at 10 bars, a gourmet food buffet, and special to-be-announced activities. Upgrade to VIP, and get a 30-minute head start, plus access to a top-shelf VIP lounge, molecular mixology demos, and a goodie bag. What are you waiting for?
$120-$185; 7:30-11 p.m., Thursday, January 26; 3601 Lyon St., exploratorium.edu

I grew up listening to Whitney Houston CDs. I remember my mom would have them playing in the car, when she would come pick me up from elementary school, and we would sing along together at the top of our lungs even though neither of our voices could match up to even a quarter of the greatness that was Whitney's vocal chords. I knew and loved all her songs, because not only were they beautiful, but they were inspiring. They held messages, and even if you were a kid, and didn't know much about the love between a man and a woman, you could still take something out of it. After a while we just never heard much from her anymore and then we kind of just forgot…It sucks that one has to die, to be remembered. People never remember the good that you do. All they see is the bad, and are quick to judge and condemn you for it, forgetting that not one us is perfect. Her passing is a sad loss. She will not only be missed today, she's always been missed, today just made it more permanent. I hope her last days were filled with love, and her loved ones told her that they loved her. We are all visitors on this earth. None of us are here to stay, one day God calls us back. So while we are here, while we meet people and love and cherish them, don't forget to tell them that you love them..because one day they'll be called back

The Jazz seemed to be headed for the kind of letdown performance that often plagues teams throughout the league following emotional games. And make no mistake, Friday's loss weighed heavily on the Jazz. Even after a cleansing performance, Jefferson said he still had "a bitter taste in my mouth" from Atlanta.
"No one even spoke until game time," Foye said. "Everybody still had that sick feeling in their stomach like we gave the game away last night."
Can you imagine how much Theraflu the Jazz would have required if they did it again?
Cancel the order at Walgreen's, these guys won't be needing it.

Ditto from here. Indeed, we have much to be thankful for.
…and don't forget those less fortunate. Our cups runneth over.
November 26th, 2009

I'm thankful for 95 year old veterans and their wisdom:
Dear President Obama,
My name is Harold Estes, approaching 95 on December 13 of this year. People meeting me for the first time don't believe my age because I remain wrinkle free and pretty much mentally alert.
I enlisted in the U.S. Navy in 1934 and served proudly before, during and after WW II retiring as a Master Chief Bos'n Mate. Now I live in a "rest home" located on the western end of Pearl Harbor allowing me to keep alive the memories of 23 years of service to my country.
One of the benefits of my age, perhaps the only one, is to speak my mind, blunt and direct even to the head man.
So here goes.
I am amazed, angry and determined not to see my country die before I do but you seem hell bent not to grant me that wish.
I can't figure out what country you are the president of. You fly around the world telling our friends and enemies despicable lies like:
· "We're no longer a Christian nation"
· " America is arrogant" – (Your wife even announced to the world," America is mean-spirited. " Please tell her to try preaching that nonsense to 23 generations of our war dead buried all over the globe who died for no other reason than to free a whole lot of strangers from tyranny and hopelessness.)
I'd say shame on the both of you but I don't think you like America nor do I see an ounce of gratefulness in anything you do for the obvious gifts this country has given you. To be without shame or gratefulness is a dangerous thing for a man sitting in the White House.
After 9/11 you said," America hasn't lived up to her ideals." Which ones did you mean?
1. Was it the notion of personal liberty that 11,000 farmers and shopkeepers died for to win independence from the British ?
2. Or maybe the ideal that no man should be a slave to another man that 500,000 men died for in the Civil War ?
3.I hope you didn't mean the ideal 470,000 fathers, brothers,husbands,and a lot of fellas I knew personally died for in WWII,because we felt real strongly about not letting any nation push us around because we stand for freedom.
4. I don't think you mean the ideal that says equality is better than discrimination. You know the one that a whole lot of white people understood when they helped to get you elected.
Take a little advice from a very old geezer,young man. Shape up and start acting like an American.If you don't, I'll do what I can to see you get shipped out of that fancy rental on Pennsylvania Avenue .You were elected to lead not to bow, apologize and kiss the hands of murderers and corrupt leaders who still treat their people like slaves.
And just who do you think you are telling the American people not to jump to conclusions and condemn that Muslim major who killed 13 of his fellow soldiers and wounded dozens more. You mean you don't want us to do what you did when that white cop used force to subdue that black college professor in Massachusetts who was putting up a fight ? You don't mind offending the police calling them stupid but you don't want us to offend Muslim fanatics by calling them what they are,terrorists.
One more thing. I realize you never served in the military and never had to defend your country with your life but you're the Commander-in-Chief now,son. Do your job. When your battle-hardened field General asks you for 40,000 more troops to complete the mission, give them to him. But if you're not in this fight to win, then get out. The life of one American soldier is not worth the best political strategy you're thinking of.
You could be our greatest president because you face the greatest challenge ever presented to any president.
You're not going to restore American greatness by bringing back our bloated economy. That's not our greatest threat. Losing the heart and soul of who we are as Americans is our big fight now. And I sure as hell don't want to think my president is the enemy in this final battle.
Harold B. Estes

(Lacks) Common Sense:
The EXACT quote is: "Whatever we once were, we are no longer a Christian nation — at least, not just. We are also a Jewish nation, a Muslim nation, a Buddhist nation, and a Hindu nation, and a nation of nonbelievers."
So if you just want to spread propaganda like Hitler, Stalin and other notable fascists, go ahead! BTW, this quote can be found everywhere on the web without any effort.
What you've done is post something that was probably written by one of those extreme right "authors". Of course no one has been able to find Mr. Estes. I must say that he writes incredibly well for a 95- year old man. (sarc)

To N-GA, mm, AmVet, ABM, et al:
Like I indicated at the end, the authorship cannot be verified but the message is clear.
I hope you read Obama's Thanksgiving message to the nation yesterday. No mention of God whatsoever so I don't know who we are to "thank".
By the way AmVet ………….. are our troops fighting today? Yes they are …….. they don't get to "let go" for one day in their real war so I don't "let go" one day in the war against those who would destroy the Judeo/Christian fabric and liberty of this Republic. No "time outs".
However, I will enjoy a little turkey and other delights this afternoon as I recall my Thanksgiving dinner of 1967 (a can of beans & weenies) in Quang Tri Province. "For those who fought for it, freedom has a flavor the protected will never know". Author Unknown – found written on a C-Rations box, Khe Sahn, 1968.
Thank you God for this wonderful day and in your mercy bless even those who turn their backs on you ……………….

By the President of the United States of America, a Proclamation.
Whereas it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor– and whereas both Houses of Congress have by their joint Committee requested me to recommend to the People of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness.
Now therefore I do recommend and assign Thursday the 26th day of November next to be devoted by the People of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be– That we may then all unite in rendering unto him our sincere and humble thanks–for his kind care and protection of the People of this Country previous to their becoming a Nation–for the signal and manifold mercies, and the favorable interpositions of his Providence which we experienced in the course and conclusion of the late war–for the great degree of tranquility, union, and plenty, which we have since enjoyed–for the peaceable and rational manner, in which we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national One now lately instituted–for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed; and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and in general for all the great and various favors which he hath been pleased to confer upon us.
and also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech him to pardon our national and other transgressions– to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually–to render our national government a blessing to all the people, by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed–to protect and guide all Sovereigns and Nations (especially such as have shewn kindness unto us) and to bless them with good government, peace, and concord–To promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the encrease of science among them and us–and generally to grant unto all Mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as he alone knows to be best.
Given under my hand at the City of New York the third day of October in the year of our Lord 1789.

I don't plan to get involved in a day long heated battle over he said/she said stuff, but since you added my name to your list, I'll address your comments.
I didn't read Obama's Thanksgiving message to the nation, nor do I really care what he said. You do realize that the United States does have freedom of religion. What you perceive as a lack of acknowledging G*d, may have been his attempt to allow people to insert the deity of their choice. Maybe he should have said so to make that point clear. There are those who are Hindus, Jews, Buddhists, and yes Muslims who are US citizens and do have the right to worship their G*d.
You really floor me. You complained about what people said about Bush and Conservatives, yet you launch the same attack against Obama and Liberals. I guess your name really says it all, though. You have to display common sense somewhere, because it sure isn't in your posts.
By the way, have a wonderful Thanksgiving. I will pray to G*d that he neutralizes some of the bitterness in your heart.

CS, with b_llsh_t like yours, you should run for office!
That you compare your puerile writings and animosity to those in uniform and their sacrifice today is to me disgraceful and repulsive.
But worse for you, you can (and will) shove your god in people's faces non-stop, and you will still never find any redemption.
OK, out and about for the things that matter today!
Enjoy this day, everyone!

To paraphrase josef from last night, Obama did mention himself several times during his address so he probably thinks that covered the Deity issue.
Happy Thanksgiving All

I thought that one of Christ's teachings was to love thy neighbor and to not judge others. God, whichever one you worship, will judge us upon our death. As we enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday and recollect what we are grateful for, hopefully we will take the time to refresh our spiritual understandings and commitments and how they should be apart of all our actions, thoughts and words. Peace to all, and Happy Thanksgiving. Bless our troops and leaders.

I'd hate to hear how you folks respond to a "good morning"
November 26th, 2009
11:37 am
Isn't it amazing that the Hindu, Buddist, Muslim and many other religions/civilizations developed over the centuries into the great bastions of democracy and respect for individual liberty that we know today? Hummmmm …………………… I'm sure they are very thankful that they are able to worship here as they please.
But in the Judeo/Christian colonies, even Thomas Jefferson, a slave owner, wrote "all men are created equal" knowing that he was setting the foundation to someday rid our country of slavery. The framers of our Constitution penned their names to it knowing also that its words would eventually bring freedom to all men. Find that in "any" other world civilization/religion without a Judeo/Christian heritage.
Personally, I am eternally grateful and thankful to God not just today but everydya for that heritage and the patriotism of our soldiers to be willing to give their lives to extend that freedom to others less fortunate. Those of you who have never fought for your country have no idea what that takes.
It is truly sad that so many hear the Liberty Bell tones of freedom echo back as bitterness and animosity. The problem is in your hearing ………. not the message.
As it says in the Holy Scriptures, "Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord" and "The Truth shall make you free" !
Ooo Rah! Amen! Semper Fi! Happy Thanksgiving !!!

P.S. to Road Scholar:
I believe the passage you are probably referring to (Matt. 7:1) in your 11:19 post above about "not judging" has to do with "hypocritical judging". Jesus commands many times elsewhere to "judge righteously".
John 5: "To them He says: Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment."
Matthew 18: "Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.
But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican."
If you would like additional illumination and passages :

Obama has relied on "unprecedented" in more than 90 instances, using the word at least 129 times in everything from major addresses to small speeches, statements, memorandums and proclamations.
Unprecedented loss of popularity in 10 months
Unprecedented lies
Unprecedented corruption
Unprecedented smoke and mirrors
Unprecedented loss of the Olympics

"Our cups runneth over."
And let's hope it's just the cups, Joe the Plumber wants to spend the day with his loved ones, too!
Something to be thankful for we may not have thought of: in G. Washington's address he at no point referred to the Un-versal in sectarian terms. Think about what that means coming from someone speaking over two centuries ago to our nation. As one who identifies with a people and a faith which spent almost 2000 years in the wilderness in unhospitable environments, this country, our nation, our first president made us welcome not as outsiders, but as "a part of the people" with a place to sink roots and call home.
As I look today at my family and guests there will be faces of many colors, politics of many shades, rich, poor and middle class, fans of opposing sports teams, tastes in music and reading from across the spectrum, and thanking our Cr-ator according to the dictates of many faiths and personal beliefs from the orthodox to the non-believers, The home will be the face of our America, that America our ancestors dreamed of when they addressed our finer nature.
I, for one, am grateful for that.
Of course, though, I'll be sitting in the corner bad-mouthing the ones who aren't there or who are out of earshot. We're family. Families do that.

I'm thankful for having wonderful elderly in-laws to share Thanksgiving with in a few minutes.
And I'm thankful knowing that if I were to repeat what some fictional, senile old fool is quoted as saying above, to wit:
"I am amazed, angry and determined not to see my country die before I do but you seem hell bent not to grant me that wish."
…that my father in law, a WWII vet who performed all manner of patriotic duties during his working life, would be happy to tell whoever wrote that nonsense to GFH.

True …….. but it must be done or society will collapse! That's why we have judges, juries, prosecutors, police officers, teachers, mothers, fathers, ministers, coaches, managers and a host of others who "judge" everyday on legal, business and moral issues just to name a few !

AmVet, read in a previous thread that you climbed Mt. Ranier.
Thinking and hoping to do that myself, and was wondering about some things. How old were you when you did the climb, and what type of fitness level were you when you did it? I hear a good cardio level is key. And of course, did you make it to the top?
November 26th, 2009
8:51 pm
Thanks Dave…back at ya! BTW–never did Ranier, but for the inexperienced, Mt. Baker outside Bellingham is more accessible as is Garibaldi outside Vancouver, BC. Baker, I understand from folks up there, has been doing some more serious rumblings of late…Have you been to the aptly named "G-d's Country?" Spectacular doesn't even begin to describe it!

Thanks for butting your nose in grown folks conversations.
"Other faiths are not assaulted,demeaned,leftout, or promoted by mentioning or acknowledging God- especially on Thanksgiving Day !"
If you care to show me where I even inferred those actions were committed, planned or even thought of in my earlier post, feel free to do so. When you refer to G*d, you can be general or specific. I don't remember the exact verse, but in the bible it is mentioned that he goes by many names. The names you mention are all the names of G*d in different monotheistic religions. The Bible even calls him by different names in different verses. Check out this link if you care to. I'll look for your response in the am if you have one.
"From Elohim to Abba: the intimate names of God"
Don't think that you're responding to an atheist. I grew up in the Baptist Church, and not only did I teach some Sunday School classes from time to time, I was also a youth speaker.
November 26th, 2009
9:14 pm
Happy Turkey Day to ya! Hope you've had some time with ABW and ABC…
On the names of G-d…In Arabic there are 99 names for the Alm-ghty. They say that the camel alone knows the hundredth name of All-h, accounting for that smug expression he wears!
November 26th, 2009
9:25 pm
Once I got off work, we had some good quality time. The ABW is getting ready for work. Black Friday sales… She's gotta be at work at 11pm to open the store at midnight.
I don't think Mr. Steven realizes that G*d can be both specific and generic depending on how you use the name. I bet he also doesn't know that the Sumerians, in their religious beliefs, also taught a story of the creation quite similar to the Old Testament. Different names, but the same story.
November 26th, 2009
9:27 pm
Dave, I was 45 when I went up there. And it was only after I saw the IMAX film at Fernbank about Everest that I really got the bug. I couldn't stop thinking about it and then out of the blue three weeks later, a scuba diving buddy of mine said he was thinking about Rainier and was I interested. I said how long until we can go?
He and I specifically trained for about a year and half. And I was already in very good shape. (Many hours in the gym and many others doing cardio work.)
We trained extensively with 50 pound packs on Kennesaw Mountain. One Saturday we did both Big and Little twice – about 11 miles total.
We also made a trip to Albuquerque and climbed Sandia Mountain. It's a walk up but was still challenging as hell and, though we were both very accomplished snow skiers, we wanted to try to do some climbing at altitude.
Even with all that – Rainier still kicked my butt.
We both did really well but I'll not kid you, it was the most difficult thing I've ever done.
The climb to Camp Muir is pretty damn tough in and of itself – about 5 hours and 5,000 vertical.
From there, the plan is generally to leave around midnight or so and try to summit. Even though it was in June, the week I was there it snowed like mad. We made it to about 12,500 but the guides were very worried about avalanche potential in this one section we had to go through and we turned around.
It was, of course, disappointing but we spent the day climbing seracs, etc and it was still a wonderful time.
In retrospect the memories and photos I have of that week are almost surreal.
As you probably already know it is the perfect training ground for the guys who go on to Denali, Aconcagua and Nepal. Apparently the conditions are pretty similar to Everest and it can be very, very dangerous. And a lot of people have died climbing Rainer.
All that said, taking up mountain climbing in your forties is not easy. It is not always, but pretty much a young(er) guys sport.
Yet, I am happy I did it. But it was enough for me and the "climbing phase" of my life!
I would say, if you are in very good physical condition and train properly – go for it!
No matter the outcome, it is a trip of a lifetime….
November 26th, 2009
9:41 pm
The story of Gilgamesh is very similar to the Great Flood and, more secular, the 12 central laws of Hammurabi are pretty much the Ten Commandments…
November 26th, 2009
9:45 pm
Spot on. Almost all monotheistic religions have stories of the Creation that are pretty similar if I remember correctly. There are slight differences, but they all pretty much follow the same pattern. The older religions also share common stories/parables with the Old Testament. I've done a little reading on different religions. Curiosity got the best of my when I was younger. I wanted to know what the differences were between religions.

To Angry Black Man:
You have a good theological background. Regarding names then, I assume you are familiar with these crucial verses from Acts chapter four:
"Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved."
…………. and as Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father but through Me." "Except you believe in Me, you are dead in your sins." "He that believeth in Me is not condemned, but he that believeth not is condemned already because he hath not believed in the name of the Only Begotten Son of God."
Truly something to be eternally thankful about on this special day ………………
November 26th, 2009
10:03 pm
One of those "little" sidelights in history that speaks to what we're talking about here has to do with the early and relatively frictionless "conversion" of the Choctaw to Christianity. There was an effort on both sides to look for the commonalties between the two belief systems and among them were the stories of creation, a great flood, a journey from afar in search of a Promised Land, etc.
Once we break away from the didactic and begin to look more closely at our belief systems and the amalgamation of elements one from the other, these stories take on a deeper meaning speaking to the universal human experience.

A couple of aspiring reality-TV stars from Northern Virginia appear to have crashed the White House's state dinner Tuesday night, penetrating layers of security with no invitation to mingle with the likes of Vice President Biden and White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel.
They just followed all the rest of the freaks in, haha.
And I know that you libs are babbling that Obozo was in no danger because all guests get x rayed, blah, blah, but that's BS, somebody that wanted to could have snapped his neck.
No weapons needed.
By the way, how does Brian Williams, PMSNBC, get invited to a "state dinner," doesn't that kind of reek of impartiality?
And where was your invite, bookman, lackey?
November 26th, 2009
11:51 pm
But alas my friend, Jesus does not agree with that "courtesy". You miss the point of what He commanded Christians to do ………
"Jesus said, go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to ever creature, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit."
If there was another way, He sure commanded us to waste a lot of unnecessary miles ………..
But he also created you with a free will and it's your decision ……………. may you make the right one.
God bless ………………

Happy Thanksgiving A.blackman;
My problem was speed reading the comments. Also, making a post after stuffing my face w/turkey and then being in a hurry to get back to the woods for the evening hunt. I've been in the mountains ever since deer & bear season opened and got out of touch with blogging, communicating & socializing in general.
Actually my meaning of intent was to make the point of the generic aspect the word- God.
P.S. I'm probably older than you are and it's a good bet not to presume what I don't know about Sumerians (or anything else).
I'll be setting my alarm for early morning too. When I'm stumbling thru the woods in the dark looking for an ambush site, I'll think of you dealing with Black Friday or just going to work. Whatever, I hope you enjoy it ! I'll wish you a Merry Christmas & Happy New Year,now, since Deer Season is not over till January…it will be awhile before I see ya around….
November 27th, 2009

Enjoy your hunting, and I wish you a Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and a good successful Hunting Season. And yes, I'm getting dressed to go to work. The type of hunting I do has no beginning or end to the season. It's a year-round, ongoing ordeal. My targets are a little different from yours, however. I primarly hunt threats to our great country, whether it's illegal aliens, terrorists, or drugs. I appreciate you thinking of me, as my job is sometimes a thankless job.
Last, accept my appologies for assuming the depth of your knowledge. Although I believe age is not the most important indicator of knowledge, I do not know you, nor do I know the extent of your education thru scholastic achievement or life experience.

re: mt baker – one of my best friends made the summit about 10 years ago – my brother tried but got extreme altitude sickness the day they were supposed to summit … both of them said it was gorgeous, but that you need to do some serious training before taking on something like that.

Too late to go shopping. There's nothing left in the stores. When I was driving to work this morning, you would have thought it was 7-8pm with all the people out and about. Every store by my home had lines all over the place except for Home Depot.

Krugman at NYtimes has an excellent piece on taxing wall St financial transactions. Good idea. Think of all those day traders getting a tax bill on even the minor transactions.

These Moonbats never rest-
Tony Blair could have delayed the 2003 invasion of Iraq and ensured better plans were in place for its chaotic aftermath by taking a tougher stance with President George W. Bush, Britain's ex-ambassador to Washington said Thursday. Christopher Meyer, Blair's U.S. envoy from 1997-2003, told a panel investigating the Iraq war that Blair failed to use his influence with Bush to stall the frantic rush to invasion.- Urinal
Nothing but incessant teeth gnashing and babbling from a so called "news" organization, the AJC, pure propaganda rag-
The Iraq Resolution or the Iraq War Resolution (formally the Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002 [1], Pub.L. 107-243, 116 Stat. 1498, enacted October 16, 2002, H.J.Res. 114) is a joint resolution (i.e., a law) passed by the United States Congress in October 2002 as Public Law No: 107-243, authorizing the Iraq War.
They just woke up one morning 5 months before the invasion and here's Bush, all of a sudden, itching to invade Iraq, so of course, they all voted yes on his whim.
Resolution 1441, Nov. 8, 2002: "Decides that Iraq has been and remains in material breach of its obligations under relevant resolutions. … Decides … to afford Iraq … a final opportunity to comply with its disarmament obligations … with the aim of bringing to full and verified completion the disarmament process established by resolution 687."
Here we are 4 months before the invasion and Bush is still itching, except now he needs permission from the United Nations for his whim rush to war.
The 2003 invasion of Iraq, (from March 20 to May 1, 2003) was led by the United States, backed by British forces and smaller contingents from Australia, Denmark, Poland and Spain.
Wow, that's pretty good, tricking all those unwitting nations, one day their soldiers are at home with the family, the very next day, whammo, in the desert shooting at ragheads. All those tanks, howitzers and Humvees, they just popped up out of the sand, battle ready.
Small thumb sucking children at the AJC.

Jobless rate holding steady-Urinal
Unemployment in metro Atlanta at 10.4% as labor force shrinks.
It's good to see that an absolute catastrophe in the labor market is good reason to be happy, looking for the upside, AJC, especially after the last decade when the unemployment rate falling to 4% was cause for you libs to shriek like sissies and tear at your clothing.
Biased much?

We live in an age of sound-bites, talk-back radio, news headlines on smart phones, opinions spread by Facebook and Twitter and more. It seems almost counter-cultural to prefer to read reasoned opinion pieces in quality newspapers, listen to news radio or watch balanced current affairs programs. Preferring books to television seems quaint. Yet how else can personal opinion, choice and value formation take place?

Lady Gaga and Prince have both contributed songs to movie soundtracks in the past, and it looks as though they may do it again, for one of the most high-profile films of 2013: The Great Gatsby.
The Great Gatsby, a new film adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's legendary novel with Leonardo DiCaprio in the title role, will hit theaters May of 2013. It's directed by Baz Luhurmann, the man who gave us Moulin Rouge! and Romeo + Juliet, and who's known for using pop music very effectively in his films. Actress Adelaide Clemens , who'll play the role of Catherine in the movie, hinted that Gaga and Prince songs may be featured in it.
Speaking to Indiewire.com , Clemens said, "They have some new music that's going to be added to the film. Some pretty huge artists have approached Baz and are writing songs for the film, and I don't think Warner Bros. are going to turn down Prince and Lady Gaga knocking down your door." She then added, "I don't know if I'm allowed to say that."
Prince's latest soundtrack contribution was to the 2006 film Happy Feet , while his 1984 classic Purple Rain remains one of the most acclaimed movie soundtracks of all time. As for Gaga, she recorded a duet with Elton John for the movie Gnomeo + Juliet, and a song of hers called "Fashion" was on the 2009 soundtrack for the movie Confessions of a Shopaholic .

I like to describe myself as an equal-opportunity story teller. By that I mean I don't take sides. If a tip checks out and the story is worth telling, I'm going to work it.
I came to Washington in 1981 where my first job was reporting traffic from atop the Washington Monument. Two times a day, I would grab a pair of binoculars and a two-way radio and ride the elevator to the observation deck, where I would watch the bridges across the Potomac.
Over the next 32 years, I made stops at KIKK Radio in Houston, WTOP Radio, the Associated Press, as well as the old FM radio stations WCXR, KIX-106 and XTRA-104.
Since 1999 when I first joined FOX 5, I have focused heavily on enterprise reporting. Breaking stories on the criminal justice system, as well as pretty much anything that has to do with policing or fighting fires.
What motivates me is the thrill of the investigation. Piecing together a story like a detective works a case. In January, I broke a story that made international news. Five firefighters refused to leave their firehouse to help a dying man.
Over the years there have been other big stories. Five men sent to prison on the false claim their hair was found at the scene of murders and rapes; a confession in the Starbucks triple murder case and another story that made International news. A hiker missing in Shenandoah National Park was a State Department diplomat under investigation for espionage.
If you asked me for my proudest accomplishment, I would have to say its the law passed by the D.C. City Council ensuring evidence in homicide cases is preserved for 60 years. The law was authored by then-city council member Kathy Patterson after watching a series of stories I did on evidence mysteriously disappearing from the D.C. Police evidence warehouse.
I have a degree in political science, but at this stage in my career I don't think I will be using it.
Outside the station, I am a passionate baseball fan and runner (four half marathons and counting). I once "got a trap" on an aircraft carrier (The JFK) and I met Joe DiMaggio (twice).

Hot Tips and Top Picks: DVDs, Blu-rays and digital debuts for the week of December 18
Videodrone's take on the biggest, best, coolest and culty-ist releases of the week
New Releases:
William Friedkin directs "Killer Joe" (Lionsgate), a southern-fried trailer-park noir with an undercurrent of black comedy. Matthew McConaughey is in prime form as a Dallas homicide cop with a sideline as a killer for hire, and he gets tangled up with a truly screwed-up family plot. Blu-ray, DVD, On Demand, and at Redbox. Available Friday, December 21. Videodrone's review is here.
"Premium Rush" (Sony) sends Joseph Gordon-Levitt zooming through the streets of New York as a bike messenger with a valuable package and a corrupt cop (Michael Shannon) on his tail. Simple, sleek, cleverly engineered, and paced like a rocket, it's a terrific adrenaline trip. Blu-ray, DVD, On Demand, and at Redbox. Available Friday, December 21. Reviewed on Videodrone here.
"Resident Evil: Retribution" (Sony), the fifth installment in the sci-fi franchise, sends Milla Jovovich back into battle with the viral zombies and the clones controlled by the Red Queen. Given the video game origins, it's an unusually clever twist to the series, at least in conceptual terms. Blu-ray, DVD, On Demand, and at Redbox. Available Friday, December 21. Videodrone's review is here.
"Total Recall" (Sony), meanwhile, a remake of the Arnold Schwarzenegger science fiction thriller, delivers much less on a far bigger budget and big name cast. Blu-ray, DVD, On Demand, and at Redbox.
"Pitch Perfect" (Universal), a small-scale drama set in the collegiate world of competitive acoustic group competition, became one of the sleeper success stories of the year. Anna Kendrick, Anna Camp, Brittany Snow, and Rebel Wilson star. Blu-ray and DVD
"Arbitrage" (Lionsgate), a drama set in the culture of corporate trading and financial misbehavior, stars Richard Gere in one of his best performances as a CEO who puts his company and family in jeopardy with his dealings. Blu-ray and DVD.
Clint Eastwood and Amy Adams star as father and daughter in "Trouble With the Curve" (Warner), a drama set in the culture of baseball scouting. Blu-ray, DVD, and On Demand. Both available Friday, December 21.
Spike Lee returns to Brooklyn with "Red Hook Summer" (Image), a story of a middle class Atlanta kid spending the summer with his religious grandfather, which is also a return to his low budget roots. Blu-ray, DVD, and at Redbox.
Other American indies out this week are "Sleepwalk With Me" (MPI), a comedy written by and starring Mike Birbiglia, and the romantic drama "Liberal Arts" (MPI) from writer / director / star Josh Radnor. Both on Blu-ray and DVD.
From Portugal comes Miguel Gomes' "Our Beloved Month of August" (Cinema Guild), on DVD with bonus short films by Gomes, and on the non-fiction front is the documentary "Jason Becker: Not Dead Yet" (Kino Lorber), a profile of the rock star diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's Disease at age 19. Both DVD only.
Browse the complete New Release Rack here
TV on Disc:
"House of Lies: The First Season" (Showtime) stars Don Cheadle as the proudly unscrupulous head of a management consultant team, a man who will do anything to land his client, from seduction to sedition, and Kristen Bell as his team leader, not yet as jaded and cynical but learning fast. The Showtime original series is ostensibly a satire of American corporate culture, but mostly it's just another frame around extreme characters who spend a season indulging in bad behavior with little remorse. 12 episodes, DVD only. Videodrone's review is here.
"Shameless: The Complete Second Season" (Warner) offers another season of antics from the Gallagher clan. Eldest daughter Fiona (Emmy Rossum) tries to hold them together through a reunion with their manic-depressive mom, the rebellion of family genius lip, and the usual scams perpetrated by their reprobate dad (William H. Macy). Blu-ray and DVD.
"Mankind: The Story of All of Us" (History), a 12-episode documentary series from the History Channel, surveys the high points of the rise of civilization in under ten hours. Blu-ray and DVD.
Plus more seasons of bad behavior in the pay-cable originals "Californication: The Fifth Season" (Paramount) and "The Life and Times of Tim: The Complete Third Season" (HBO) and the finale of the Lifetime original series "Army Wives: Season Six, Part Two" (ABC).

Cool and Classic:
Two animated family features highlight this week's releases. "The Point: Definitive Collector's Edition" (MVD Visual) presents the 1971 musical fable written by Harry Nilsson in a new edition with featurettes. Ringo Starr narrates by Nilsson performs all the songs himself. DVD only.
"The Adventures of Mark Twain" (Magnolia) is the first Claymation feature from Will Vinton Studios, a fantasy that combines biography and fiction into a fantastical adventure with Mark Twain (voiced by James Whitmore) and his literary characters. DVD and Blu-ray.
"Gandu" (Artsploitation), which is an epithet in its original language, is a grungy, anti-Bollywood musical drama from India, shot in B&W and shot through with explicit sex, drugs, and musical interludes.
Previously available from other labels and re-released under new management are the gruesome 1970 cult horror "Mark of the Devil" (Cheezy Flicks) and Stephen Frears' modern western "The Hi-Lo Country" (Shout! Factory), with Woody Harrelson and Billy Crudup.

Blu-ray Debuts:
"Gypsy" (Warner Archive Collection), the 1962 screen musical based on the memoirs of legendary burlesque dancer Gypsy Rose Lee (played by Natalie Wood), is really more about her pushy stage mother and Rosalind Russell plays her in big, broad, diva form. It's one of the first Blu-ray releases from Warner Archive. Videodrone's review is here.
"Deathtrap" (Warner Archive Collection), another stage-to-screen adaptation, is the other debut Blu-ray. Michael Caine and Christopher star in this witty, self-aware murder mystery set in the culture of Broadway stage thrillers, adapted from the play by Ira Levin. Videodrone's review is here.
Paul Newman stars in "Sometimes a Great Notion" (Shout! Factory), the screen version of Ken Kesey's novel about a family of independent loggers in Oregon. And "Hard Core Logo" (VSC), Bruce McDonald's edgy mockumentary of a punk band's reunion tour, arrives on Blu-ray with a bonus copy of the new sequel, "Hard Core Logo 2."
