Sharon Byrne's column about The Business of Homelessness in Santa Barbara has members of Homeless Inc., scurrying. The light that was shined on the multi-million-dollar program at Casa Esperanza, which has gone from 30 to 100 to 200 beds, got Executive Director Michael Foley to lash out on Facebook…

I think Foley's only option is to pour Casa's money into Earth Day and school lunch programs like Marborg did…. Nobody seems care how much money their monopoly is pulling in keeping the streets trash free!!!! Of course the Casa doesn't advertise in the View either.

WOW! to say disingenuous, reprehensible hit and run journalism and the truth always wins all in the same sentance is a nice gauge of what this guy is really about. Getting boat loads of money from the fed and doners to pay his fat salary while claiming he is helping people. he just likes his fat paycheck and surely rarely is at the casa actually looking at what goes on. numbers on paper in a nice office. get a real job! casa does not need you dude.

"Taking care of our own" professionally conspires with each other to hit the most lucrative pan-handling spots in shifts. These bums play Santa Barbara do-gooders like a Stradivarius violin. . Police know if you feed them, they will come.
If Helene wants to tax bars on Lower State street for the messes they create, then charge Homeless Inc for all the messes they also create that abuse way too much of our police manpower in a revolving door of blight.

Something is wrong when a "charitable" executive director speaks in buzz words to malign whole swaths of people like "FOX News Watchers", while asking compassion at the same time. Time to go Foley, you are burned out.

Saw a post from Emily Allen too on FB. It was only liked by James Kyriaco and two others. Mr. Foley needs to pull his posts go on a long vacation and hope this blows over. Not an issue he'll win in the media or in the community.

Word among the homeless is that they never see him at the Casa. His office is down the street. He's trying to cash in on Lompoc's recent homeless debacle, rushing up there to interview their homeless at one of their shelters, at midnite! He proposes to take their homeless in down here, and thus expand his empire. Saw his post on Facebook about his possible run for 4th District Supervisor. He isn't into actually tending to the homeless. He's just advancing his career off making them a huge cause that, of course, he simply has to be the anointed one to manage. Wonder how the homeless feel about being exploited like that…

Has he removed that comment and the video, too – or are they available only to his friends?

So the well-paid Mr. Foley responds to the IRS documents and Byrne's thoughtful opinion column with a snide (and incorrect) personal comment on Facebook. He could have at least paid his pricey PR person to craft a dignified, correctly spelled reply. Or he could even have written his own article for SBView that explains how Casa Esperanza's negative effect on the community is "taking care of our own." Apparently he believes the "rights" of the homeless come before those of our own decent, hardworking residents, the taxpayers who pay his salary. Most of us are working like crazy, trying to hold on to what we've got, and would never think of treating someone else's property the way so many of those Casa-related homeless do. Show a little gratitude, and even some respect to those of us who make all of this possible, please. Next time I get an expensive mailing from Casa Esperanza, pleading for even more money, I'll remember Mr. Foley's immaturity that passes for leadership in this town. Not another dime for this organization that is so co-dependent on the homeless.

Taking care of our own, my @$$!! Everyone at Casa Esperanza is from out of town. The local homeless won't go there. Ask the police. Ask the neighbors. He's running a homeless tourism racket in there!
- HennyPenny February 15, 2012 at 4:04 pm #
Only reason Montecito swells support Casa is to keep the bums from knocking at their own gates. Why don't the bums gravitate to Coast Village Road instead of State Street – heck of a lot more money in Montecito to scam. Appears Coast Village Road gets better policing than downtown Santa Barbara. Why is that?
- William Munny February 15, 2012 at 4:23 pm #
"We take Care of our Own" – Truer words have never been spoken when it comes to Homeless, Inc. They take care of themselves first and foremost with generous salaries and benefits.
On the other hand – "Hit and run" – Who is he kidding? Byrne has been very vocal and more than willing to meet with Foley and other representatives of Homeless, Inc. Just because what the daylight she's shone on Foley's budget hits a little too close to home is no reason to dismiss what she's saying. Moreover, what about the opinions of the overwhelming majority of individuals on this website who clearly agree with the concerns she raised? Are they too to be dismissed?
This is prototypical of the thinking in Homeless, Inc. If you support growing their corporate budgets, then you "get it" and are a compassionate human being. If you believe providing more tax dollars for the homeless to migrate to Santa Barbara is the wrong approach, you're ignorant and cold-hearted.
Perhaps Foley should stop "taking care of his own" and start taking care of the homeless problem that he's going very well compensated to fix.

Police understand the answers: STOP feeding them! STOP making it so easy to be homeless in Santa Barbara! STOP over-burdening our police department with this Homeless Inc insanity! Emily Allen's father is a court-appointed defense lawyer. Add those millions he rakes in defending these scofflaws to Homeless Inc's bottom line. Grow more bottom-feeder indigent crime in our town, and you grow Joe Allen's cosy bottom line at the same time.
- Anon February 15, 2012 at 6:29 pm #
Agreed – the police know. So do the firefighters. The trouble is, the city won't let them tell what they know because it would look bad for Homeless, Inc, whose two biggest allies are Grant and Helene, and of course, now Cathy. Better to frame SBPD and SBFD as whiny, greedy overpaid thugs. They're actually serving as babysitter, haz mat crew, and one-stop medical care for the giant mess created by Homeless, Inc.
- TweetieBird February 15, 2012 at 7:05 pm #
The city is us, not Cathy or Bendy, Grant and Helene. We are the ones who must send a very different message that we 100% support all police efforts to control this growing abuse of our hometown.
City laxness has done in downtown retail, which ironically is the life blood for our city services. The City elected officials are defeating only themselves, sickening our downtown business district and making visitors happy to leave and never come back.
Homeless Inc's guilt card is a house of cards. Look past them playing their guilt card and recognize their own selfish interests making Santa Barbara a magnet for more vagrants. They have no corner on the morality of this issue. Just the opposite, enabling dependency is the worst offense of all.
Repeat this: When Homeless Inc plays their guilt card, say enabling dependency is the worst offense of all.
Few can even use parks today any longer. Families shun them when they should be relishing this community resource. Why even bother with Integrated Pest Management, when vagrants over-taking parks is more toxic to their enjoyment than any possible pesticide. Time for a liberal use of Round Up (and move 'em out)
State Street and many beach areas are getting more over-run every day. Cleaning up Milpas only forced these same vagrant problems elsewhere in our city. When do you think enough is enough? That is always your choice –not the "city's choice". Don't enable bad behavior.
- Tale of Two Cities February 15, 2012 at 5:23 pm #
We all came to Santa Barbara homeless. Some of us got jobs, paid rent or bought houses……. and stayed. Some of got hand-outs and a free ride with attitude………. and stayed too. And told their friends to come on down too 'cause livin' is easy in SB, when you work all the Homeless Inc angles.
- Granny Knows Best February 15, 2012 at 7:09 pm #
Instead spending millions on Homeless Inc every year, invest that money in Safe Senior Shopping Days Downtown and watch our city turn around.
- DO Member February 15, 2012 at 7:20 pm #
Treat Homeless Inc as a peripheral and secondary nuisance. Spend efforts first making downtown healthy again for retail. Homeless vagrant demands become immediately secondary. If they get in the way of a healthy downtown, they are gone. End of discussion. Make a list: what would it take to bring back local shoppers downtown. Then set out to work on it, item by item. Tell vagrants they are not part of a healthy downtown and they have to move elsewhere to support their lifestyle choices.

The Mayor of Foleytown can hide behind the Boss, but we citizens have finally figured out how we've been duped, bullied, guilt-tripped and extorted into a dysfunctional relationship with an ever-growing population of homeless and homeless enablers that feed on each other and degrade our community. This is not how we take care of our own.
- Eastside 20 years February 15, 2012 at 9:35 pm #
Foleytown is right. He turned Milpas St into derelict-ville. We have indeed been bullied and duped by the likes of him for far too long. Kudos, SB View and Byrne, for taking this one head-on! It's time we stand up to this extortion, and call out Homeless, Inc. for the lies they've foisted on us, like 'taking care of our own' – only if you call the entire state and nation's homeless 'our own'. Let's turn off the financial spigots that keep Homeless, Inc growing without bounds. Let's hear the truth of it from the police. It's time to hold our elected officials accountable to US, the citizens. Stop giving away our parks, our streets, our rights, and our livelihoods to grifters, who by merely traipsing into our jurisdiction are somehow now entitled to more rights than we are. ENOUGH.

200 beds? Really ?? That explains things on lower Milpas
- Nurse Ratchet February 16, 2012 at 7:38 am #
Case for re-opening state hospitals. If alcoholism is a "disease", these people are sick and need to be held in 24/7/365 facilities until they get well. Huge diversion of time, manpower and money maintaining this revolving door catch and release for street drunks, that could be far better spent re-opening state hospitals.
One Flew Over the CooCoo's Nest was not a documentary. What is happening today should shock the conscience and pocket-book far more than a overly dramatized, fictionalized movie setting intended to get laughs but not failed social reform.
ACLU should be leading the charge to re-open these institutional care facilities so police can go back to keeping the rest of us safe, rather than wasting their expensive skills and training baby-sitting this army of professional drunks.
When crime blotters tell the story over and over again: drug and alcohol abuse along with domestic violence often as the secondary effect of the first offenses, society's systematic re-orientation handling of drunks and illegal drug user is in first order.
- BekinsMan February 16, 2012 at 7:42 am #
Cleaning up Milpas has only moved these problems elsewhere. Stop pretending past city social policies are not the problem because they certainly have proven themselves not to be the solution. Other local communities are a lot cleaner than Santa Barbara. Learn what they are doing right and what Santa Barbara continues to get wrong.
- anon. February 16, 2012 at 9:10 am #
Cleaning up Milpas?? Milpas has _not_ been cleaned up, at least not the section from Mason (Mickey D's) and Cacique (Casa Desesperada).
- Compassionate response February 16, 2012 at 8:59 am #
Compassion is putting habitual drunks and drug abusers with strings of revolving door arrest records in lock-down, state supported institutionalized care settings until they get well. Compassion is not enabling them to continue their lives on the streets, committing crime after crime to the disruption of our entire social fabric.
We ran massive TB sanitariums which isolated those infected from the rest of society for public health and safety reasons. We need to do no less with the disease of drug and alcohol addiction.
- 1sbsurvivor February 16, 2012 at 9:57 am #
There appears to be significant agreement in tone (fed up), demands (reduce number of beds and hold 'clients' accountable for their services, starting with sobriety), reduce the "free meal/free services" mentality, and back the efforts of police and paramedics.
However…Casa Esperanza operates through a board of directors, and Mike Foley serves at their 'discretion.' I cannot find a CURRENT list of board members on line, but that is where you start to bring about change in a non-profit organization.
Perhaps the View or its readers can download the comments and article(s) and ask that a review and discussion be placed on the agenda for the next meeting.
When HomelessinSB.com has their 'own' website, as they currently do, it's time to shift gears. Having participated in the homeless count, I had a first hand view of the issue. More services and less accountability is helping NO one.
- William Munny February 16, 2012 at 12:17 pm #
While true in theory, in practice, no one is going to get within 100 feet of the Board of Directors of Case Esperanza that doesn't fully support and embrace GROWING, not shrinking, the level of services and monies necessary to pay for them. While Foley may theoretically answer to the Board, who do you think it is that presents potential board members to the Board for consideration?
Unfortunately, there are only two ways this problem is going to start to correct itself and neither will come from within Casa Espernza or the rest of Homeless, Inc.:
1. Shed daylight (as Byrnes has done) one how Homeless, Inc. spends its resources for the general public to see. By doing so we will slowly see the donations to these "non-profit" businesses dry up as people realize they might as well just put their donations into the pockets of the employees of Homeless, Inc. and cut out the middle man.
2. Electing public officials who don't believe throwing more taxpayer dollars at the problem is the best solution. This necessarily includes those public officials replacing the leadership of the SB Housing Authority and instituting a new way of thinking that is geared towards solving the problem rather than growing the subsidized housing stock (again, keep in mind, a large homeless population supports the Housing Authorities claim we need more subsidized housing, which in turn supports their claim they need a lot of highly compensated individuals to run such a large and complex organization)
- I heart Munny February 16, 2012 at 12:59 pm #
Lady Ridley-Tree is on their board, she is the leader of the 'let the homeless eat cake' proclamations. Ken Williams is on their board, paid County advocate for the homeless. Roger Durling, head of the Film Festival, is also on it. Munny is on the money. You'll never get these people to reign in Foley, or change the mission of the Casa Desesperada. They live in a bubble, and they're convinced what they're doing is Gawd's work.
- Dupe-doping times 2 February 16, 2012 at 10:04 am #
Many parallels to the failed compassionate pot issues. First was genuine compassion because we were duped into thinking there was a small and needy minority that needed help with medical dope for terminal and serious medical conditions where it was of proven value. And second that we were taking care of our own who legitimately fell into temporary homelessness but had means and wherewith all to bootstrap themselves back.
Wrong on both counts. Homeless Inc and medical dope became huge industries with profit motives and self-serving self-preservation goals that now both trump any hint of original public concerns.

Academy Award-winning actress and writer Emma Thompson had penned the screenplay for the new film adaptation that was in development at Sony Pictures. Actress Carey Mulligan was reported to star as Eliza Doolittle.
According to Mackintosh, the film "didn't happen because of various things that happened with the rights and the studio and everything like that."
Mackintosh and Duncan Kenworthy were attached to produce the film.
As previously reported, music mogul Clive Davis is attached to produce a Broadway revival of My Fair Lady.
The musical was adapted for the screen in 1963, directed by George Cukor, and cast Audrey Hepburn as Eliza and Rex Harrison as Higgins. The film won eight Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Actor.

#10: Dillon Gee Scouting Report
Gee had a very sound big league debut in September
By Jon Star

The lack of depth in the Mets big league rotation at the end of the 2010 season opened the door for Dillon Gee to show what he could do at the highest level. The 2007 21st round pick replied in kind with a very positive showing that could lead him to begin the 2011 season on the big league club. What does Gee offer aside from what fans saw last September? Look inside to find out.

- Culture & Values
- Career Opportunities
I worked at Roka Bioscience full-time (more than 3 years)Pros
Vacation time
Pay is just inches away from being competitiveCons
Praise is not often given
No real company culture
Information is not free flowing and often trickles downAdvice to ManagementAdvice
Roka is a nice company to work for but often times no one really knows what is going on. Information about current projects and company health are usually found second hand. The culture of the company really needs help in order to make everyone who works there feel like they are all playing for the same team. Having an after hours social and tipping back a beer or two would go miles to help bond the company and improve morale.
We keep losing good talented people, but told that we didn't really need them, and then told to row faster. But I will say this about the company, it's a start up and some of the bad things I listed is to be expected. Until Roka is profitable it can't do some of the things a bigger company can. It can't hand out huge merit increases, it can't have elaborate parties, and most of all it can't take chances on people who are "unhappy."
But the day the company goes public, and is profitable, is the day it may need to be ready to pay the bill to those rowing the boat at breakneck speed.RecommendsNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEO

"Underpaid, underappreciated "

- Culture & Values
- Career Opportunities
I worked at Roka Bioscience full-time (more than 3 years)Pros
Managers can be a hit-or-miss: some are willing to work with you, while others may carry a reputation of getting their subordinates fired.
Work scheduling was fair - starting work late and/or leaving early was an option provided you did your task/duties promptly.Cons
Pay and benefits are not made, nor readjusted to keep the employees content.
RAs are underappreciated, and often considered dispensable.
Antagonistic work environment where individuals in higher positions had the tendency to look down/detract the worth of other co-workers.
The trend during my tenure at Roka was that they often looked for the small window of making a mistake to get employees in trouble/fired.Doesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEO

I worked at Roka Bioscience full-timePros
Decent benefits, including 15 days vacation time and sick daysCons
In general, employees were dissatisfied. There was little opportunity for growth, even for those employees that actively sought it. Only employees with connections to upper management or the CEO were able to move upward and receive promotions. Employees did not feel confidence in upper management or their decisions.
Upper management did not allow much input from employees regarding projects.
Salary was low.Doesn't RecommendDisapproves of CEO

I have been working at Roka BiosciencePros
Good benefits compared to other companies.
No 401K matching.
15 days vacation.
3 days sick leave.
Fridays off during summer months.
Highly paid employees.Cons
Uninspiring and stifling corporate management. I've run companies before and taken them to market and then sold them. As one of the leaders of this company, I'm not given the freedom to run the site as it should be run. Some employees that I inherited came over from the parent company Genprobe and brought with them a lot of baggage. One office in NJ, one office in CA. For a start up company, we didn't think about how much money we're spending to have these two offices. I'm not sure if the product will break new grounds in the industry but at least I have a secure job.Doesn't RecommendDisapproves of CEO

Georges Exantus thought he'd never dance again. He was lucky just to be alive.
The earthquake three years ago in Haiti's capital flattened the apartment where he was living and he spent three days trapped under jagged rubble. After friends dug him out, doctors amputated his right leg just below the knee.
Israeli doctors and physical therapists who came to Haiti after the quake sent him to Israel for surgery and rehabilitation.
Three years later, the 31-year-old professional dancer is back on the floor, spinning away as he does the salsa, cha-cha and samba. A prosthetic leg doesn't hold him back.
Exantus says he's the same person he was before the January 12, 2010, earthquake struck southern Haiti.
But it's clear the life of the young man nicknamed "The Gladiator" has been changed by the disaster that killed tens of thousands of people and forced an estimated 4,000 to 6,000 survivors to undergo amputations because of gangrene-related infections.
Exantus walks with a slight limp. He can't dance as fast as he used to or balance as well or do some of his old moves, such as flipping his partner over his shoulder.
Exantus has also learned to ignore the long stares and quiet whispers, products of a longstanding stigma in Haiti for people with disabilities. Before the quake, few resources existed to accommodate Haiti's disabled, and many regard people with disabilities as misfits.
"I'm not focused on what people say about me or how society sees me," says Exantus, who married his girlfriend in July on a dance floor.
If some see him as something of an outcast, his friends find inspiration: He's not one for self-pity; he was determined to dance again, and did. He's part of a Latin dance company and gives classes.
"Some victims of Jan. 12 stay in the same place and they can't do anything," says dance partner and friend Modeline Gene Arhan, 26. "Georges has a goal. He's always thinking of where he's going."
He's already made one dream come true.
"As long as I'm living," Exantus says, "I'm going to dance."

This is a gorgeous rare porcelain model of a beautiful ballerina that was created by the Ernst Bohne factory of Germany c1910. She is posing with a floral garland, lovely!
There is some damge to her lace areas on her dress and some small chips to the floral garland. One tiny nick on the back bottom gold edge of the base. Overall displays beautifully in my opinion and a lovely rare piece to add to your collection!
Measures approximately 5 1/4 inches high by 5 1/2 inches wide. Superb!

After five years in a prison for the criminally insane, Manny (Lou Diamond Phillips) returns to Reno. He moves into a motel and takes a job as a clerk at the Hotel El Cortez. He is befriended by Popcorn (Bruce Weitz), a crippled prospector who seeks his help to persuade Russo (Peter Onorati), a wealthy gambler, to invest in Popcorn's gold mine. But Manny cannot escape his past. He is hounded by Arnie (James McDaniel), the vengeful cop who arrested him. Arnie leans on Manny to keep tabs on Jack (Glenn Plummer), a dealer who is staying at the hotel. In the meantime Jack's girlfriend, Theda (Tracy Middendorf), learns about the gold mine and starts putting the moves on Manny. Soon Manny is caught in a labyrinth that leads to a murderous triple cross.

1031 a play for investors with long-term horizons
The IRS allows some latitude in defining "like-kind" property acquisitions, though it limits the exchanges to properties used as investments or for business
by Ted Carter
Published: August 21,2011
Tags: 1031 Exchange, federal tax law
While the housing foreclosure crisis and widespread commercial vacancies give real estate a horror movie feel, federal tax law makes it hard to fall entirely out of love with real estate investing. At least it has for investors willing to think long-term, says Jackson commercial Realtor Walter Michel, principal of the J. Walter Michel Agency. […]

The 2012 Google Father's Day Logo
Google has a special animated logo for Father's Day today.
The logo depicts a child delivering coffee to his dad on a remote control device. The father is sitting on his chair relaxing and notices this, picks up the coffee while the child jumps out. The father then taps the child on the head as a sign of thanks and love. This is all done in the form of a Google Doodle where the "E" is the child and the "L" is the father.
For last year's Google Father's Day logo, click here.

I'm stuck using this film camera I got from Goodwill until I can find a T4 or Stylus Epic that's not super overpriced. Which is impossible.

Wisconsinites to get $3.6 million in Obamacare rebates
Send this to a friend
- Rich Kirchen
- Senior Reporter- Milwaukee Business Journal
- Email | Twitter
Wisconsin consumers will receive a total of $3.6 million in rebates this summer due to a requirement of the Affordable Care Act that pushes insurers to operate efficiently.
A total of 147,144 Wisconsin consumers who buy insurance as individuals or through large groups will get the checks averaging $46, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services said June 20.
The large group members in Wisconsin receiving rebates total 99,129 and they will receive a total of $2.8 million. The number of individual policyholders in Wisconsin eligible for rebates total 48,015 and they will receive a total of $765,370.
Nationwide, consumers will get $504 million in rebates, with 8.5 million enrollees due to receive an average rebate of around $100 per family.
This year's rebates nationwide are about half of the $1.1 billion the first year of the program. In Wisconsin, the figure shrunk even more, from $10.4 million in rebates to 282,812 consumers a year ago.
The rebates result from a calculation of 2012 health insurer data required under the Affordable Care Act's Medical Loss Ratio, or "80/20 rule." If an insurer did not spend enough premium dollars on patient care and quality improvement, rebates must be paid.
A Health and Human Services spokesman said the lower rebates are the result of insurance companies learning to be more efficient.
Senior Reporter Rich Kirchen covers health care, sports business, politics and media/advertising for the Milwaukee Business Journal.

Capital budget negotiators narrow disagreement
The Senate proposed $10 million for a new software system for the Liquor Commission to process credit cards. The software would be paid for by liquor revenues, not state general funds.
He said the Senate Ways and Means Committee was assured the commission could cover the costs without lowering projected state revenues.
Similar concerns were raised over the Senate's plan for paying for repairs to the North Hampton seawall, which is projected to cost $5 million. The House approved $1 million for the repair but the Senate increased it to $5 million with half the money coming from the Hampton Beach parking meter fund.

Can you spare $9,500 for that Miami Heat ticket?
Send this to a friend
- Paul Brinkmann
- Reporter- South Florida Business Journal
- Email | LinkedIn | Twitter | Google+
Miami Heat ticket prices soared as Game 7 of the NBA finals approached.
According to the NBA website, Miami Heat officials said individual game tickets went on sale to the general public at 2:00 p.m. Wednesday.
The NBA's web site said individual game ticket inventory is limited and tickets are expected to sell quickly.
According to StubHub.com, two seats in Row 4 Section 117 showed a price of $9,500. Standing room only was listed at more than $300. Ticketmaster's resale page showed prices up to $9,000.
Clara Serrano blasted out emails on Wednesday from her Kendale Lakes-based Freedom Concierge Services, offering to line people up with tickets.
"The prices seem about the same as last year's finals, but they are fluctuating wildly," Serrano said.
The game is at the AmericanAirlines Arena in downtown Miami on Thursday, June 20, at 9 p.m.
Paul Brinkmann covers venture capital, technology, energy and environment.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
All talk, no action in Eggers' latest
If you dislike the em-dash -- the longer lines that sometimes appear around asides in sentences -- just looking at the pages of Dave Eggers' latest novel will bug you. (Sorry about the two in the previous sentence.)
The California-based writer's latest novel, the long-titled Your Fathers, Where Are They? And the Prophets, Do They Live Forever?, is written entirely in dialogue, and Eggers uses the em-dash instead of quotation marks to indicate a change in the speaker. It follows hot on the heels of 2013's The Circle, a conventionally structured novel (relatively speaking) in which Eggers tackles technology, social media, big corporations and more.
Your Fathers, Where Are They? And the Prophets, Do They Live Forever?
By Dave Eggers
Knopf/McSweeneys, 212 pages, $28
Your Fathers begins in "Building 52" where Kev, an astronaut, wakes up to discover he has been taken captive by Thomas, a man who says he's a former college acquaintance. To Thomas, Kev is "the one fulfilled promise" of American greatness; with NASA's space program decimated, however, Kev's chances of getting to space are slim to none.
Over the course of the novel, the reader learns Thomas has taken (and takes) a handful of other people hostage, all at an abandoned military base on the California coast. Each is housed in their own building on the base; they include a police officer, his mother, a former congressman/Vietnam vet, and one of Thomas's former sixth-grade teachers, among others.
Thomas interrogates each in turn, visiting some more than once, often threatening his captive with a stun gun if they don't co-operate. It gradually becomes clear he's trying to piece together why his childhood friend Don Bahn was shot and killed by police one night some years ago after a psychotic break.
Through his captives, Thomas gathers bits of the story of Don's final night. To say much more would be to risk spoiling the crux of the back-story, and how Thomas devolves to his deranged state of mind.
Your Fathers isn't long enough for the reader to get a good grasp on any of the characters except Thomas, the captor and constant throughout the book. At just over 200 pages and with the text being exclusively dialogue between Thomas and his captives, it's a book that can be read in one or two sittings, and certainly benefits from such a read.
Eggers typically writes exceptionally good dialogue; part of what made his 2000 memoir A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius so gripping was the way he captured genuine inflection, especially between himself and younger brother Toph. Similarly, his masterful What Is the What (2006) and very good Zeitoun (2009) and A Hologram for the King (2012) emphasize authenticity of voice fleshed out by evocative, poignant third-person narration.
Without that third-person, omniscient narration, Eggers can't step in to relieve the descriptive pressure from the characters. The responsibility of fleshing out the world and its details, then, is thrust on to one either Thomas or one of his captives, and as a result there are a couple of clunky conversations per chapter.
In a way, Your Fathers feels like a writing exercise, or half a book -- as though if you were to ransack Eggers' office, you might find all the third-person omniscient narration that would make this book complete. It would be a godsend, allowing Eggers to scale back the bulkier, forced dialogue used to describe needed back-story, setting or plot developments.
Thematically, Your Fathers is a rumination on what makes good men turn bad in America, in a culture of violence and abuse that leads some people to the breaking point. With a steady stream of mass shootings and other tragedies in our daily news feed, Eggers tries to take the reader inside such an event to uncover why things happen the way they do.
And while the tension is there, doing it only through dialogue ends up being akin to taking it in on CNN via a TV with a busted picture tube, or reading a screenplay with no stage directions.
Ben MacPhee-Sigurdson is the Free Press literary editor, and tried to use as few em-dashes in this review as possible.

INDIANAPOLIS -- At a get-together with a handful of local reporters Jerry Jones said the Cowboys are unlikely to make a roster move before next Friday, but the owner and general manager also said there could be an exception.
"At this time on our roster there's only one – as of that date," Jones said. "We have the right to do that later as well."
Jones was asked if it was a player with a $500,000 roster bonus due in the early part of the 2011 league year and would not confirm, saying, "That's your job to figure out."
Much of the speculation has been on Marion Barber. The running back does have a $500,000 roster bonus but it is not due until June 4 (if there is a new CBA by then). It might make more sense to cut Barber in June to spread out his cap hit over two seasons. Cutting Barber in June would save the Cowboys $4.75 million. Cutting him before would save them $750,000.
Dez Bryant has a $1 million roster bonus due on the fifth day of the new league year. Just a guess, but he's not going anywhere. Backup guard Montrae Holland is due a $500,000 roster bonus on the fifth day as well, and I don't think he's going anywhere either. Jason Witten and Bradie James have $500,000 roster bonuses on the 15th day of the league year, and they're not going anywhere.
Some possibilities?
Right tackle Marc Colombo has a $2.6 million option bonus that comes due in the first 15 days of the new league year and a $500,000 roster bonus that he would receive in parts during the year for each game he is on the 45-man roster in 2011.
Leonard Davis does not have roster bonus, but he does carry a $9.4 million cap figure. If the Cowboys release Davis, they would save $1.834 million against the cap in 2011.
Without a new CBA, however, Jones is right: there is no rush to these moves.
